The sudden violent shouting did not stop the whip, but the fat Khitan official was so frightened by the thunderous roar that he could not sit still and fell from his chair. The two personal guards on the side hurriedly helped him.
He sat back with his master's body like a mountain of meat.
When "Roshan" sat back and calmed down, he realized that the guy who had scared him into a panic was actually a Jurchen barbarian that he looked down on. It's funny, the Khitan people were originally an uncivilized barbarian people among the Han people in the Central Plains.
However, one hundred and fifty years after the founding of the country, I learned the dress and etiquette of the Han people, and felt that I was a civilized person now, so I called the Jurchens barbarians.
"Roshan" was furious: "Where did this bastard come from? Dare you be rude to Shangguan? Tie him up with me and beat him hard!"
Immediately, two strong-backed Khitan soldiers strode towards Aguda, intending to capture Aguda. Of course, Aguda would not surrender, but just pushed the two seemingly tall and mighty Khitan warriors.
There was a close contact with the earth in the snow.
"Roushan" saw this scene and became even more angry: "Rebellion, rebellion, almost rebellion. How dare you attack Daliao Shangpai? Kill him!"
With a few "swish" sounds, the Liao warrior behind him suddenly pulled out his bright silver sword and looked at Aguda with eager eyes.
Xu Zhuocheng saw that the matter was getting serious and hurriedly came forward to beg for mercy. He had cooperated with Wanyan Bu for so many years, and all his wealth was saved by doing business with Wanyan Bu. If something happened to Wanyan Bu, his business would also be affected.
There's nothing more to do.
"This superior! It's a misunderstanding. It's all a misunderstanding! This brother Aguda is Wu Yashu's second brother. He just doesn't know how his brother offended the superior. He acted impulsively. He didn't mean to go against the superior. Please forgive him.
He is young and ignorant, so let’s go around him this time, right?”
As he spoke, he secretly handed out a silver ingot from his wide sleeve.
The "Roushan" snorted coldly, knocked Xu Zhuocheng's piece of silver away, and said loudly: "I've blinded you. I am an imperial envoy of the Daliao Dynasty, and I come from a clan in the Daliao Dynasty.
The family background is not much different. I am an official who relieves the country's worries and enforces the law impartially. In fact, can you buy off such a stupid person like you?"
"For bribes, the crime will be increased, and we will be arrested together."
The silver envoy gave the order, and dozens of fully armed Khitan warriors were eager to try.
"Let's see who dares!"
With a loud shout, dozens of Wanyan tribe men wearing animal skins and holding sharp blades rushed over and surrounded more than twenty Khitan warriors and silver envoys.
A man wearing tiger skin and fox skin who looked very similar to Wanyan Aguda walked up to Aguda and asked with concern: "Second brother, are you okay?"
Aguda gritted his teeth and said, "Third brother, they almost beat the eldest brother to death."
The person who came was none other than Aguda's third brother, Wanyan Wu, who was begging for money. When the incident happened, he was hunting outside the village with dozens of Jurchen warriors. Someone sneaked out of the village and told him that the situation was not good and asked him to hurry up.
After rushing back, Wanyan Wu Qimai noticed that the shapeless person tied to the pillar and beaten was actually his eldest brother Wu Yashu. He suddenly became furious and roared: "Thief, I'm going to kill you!"
But he was grabbed by someone. Wu Qimai looked back at the person who grabbed him and was stunned. This person turned out to be his second brother Aguda.
Aguda's face was as cold as the cold wind in Changbai Mountain. He gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words through his teeth: "Wu begged to buy, don't be impulsive."
Wu Qimai was shocked and angry at the same time. He didn't understand how his usually brave second brother could be so cowardly at this moment.
Aguda gritted his teeth and said, "They are the imperial envoys of Daliao. If the trouble gets out of hand, what will happen to the Wanyan Department in the future?"
A Guda's words were like a basin of cold water being poured down his head, making Wu Qimai calm down. He hesitated for a moment, not knowing what to do.
The conversation between the two was conducted in Jurchen language. Although the Fat Pig Silver Messenger could not understand, he guessed the general content of the conversation from their expressions.
Just now when Wu Qimai led dozens of brave Jurchen men and prepared to take action, he was really shocked. If these Jurchen barbarians living in poor mountains and rivers really wanted to take action, I am afraid that he would not be able to leave today.
He went out. His twenty-odd Khitan soldiers looked mighty. In fact, they were very pampered on weekdays. They even did very little drills. It was okay to just pretend and bully the common people. But if they really wanted to fight, it would be fine.
be thrown off balance.
Xu Zhuocheng saw that the two sides had calmed down for the time being, and hurriedly came up to be the peacemaker: "Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings. Just now, Dalang refuted the superior. The superior didn't know Dalang's identity, so he whipped him."
Guessing that the other party didn't dare to make a move, he finally let go of his anxious heart. Knowing that he had gone too far this time, he just said downhill: "This matter is also your Wanyan Department's fault. I am.
Two months ago, the Shangchai asked your Wanyan Department to hand over one hundred tiger skins and fifty pairs of sea hollies before the end of this year. These are all tasks assigned by the Sage. We are also on a mission.
The people of Liao should naturally be loyal to the country and share the worries of the king. In order to avoid missing the mission, I came here to check, why is it that it is the end of November and not even half of what I have given you has been prepared?"
Xu Zhuocheng accompanied him and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, the Imperial Envoy, as the saying goes, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. Not to mention that the mountains are blocked by heavy snow right now, and tigers are extremely hard to find. Even if you get a tiger skin on weekdays, it is not easy. What's more, it's not easy to get one hundred tiger skins from the Imperial Envoy."
Zhang? I'm afraid it's not enough to kill all the big insects within a radius of 500 miles. As for the sea holly, it's a raptor in the sky. It's not easy to catch it alive. These days, everyone in the Wanyan Department is busy with the tasks assigned by the superior.
But it’s really beyond my ability. Please give me some grace for a few days.”
Murong Fu sneered in his heart: One hundred tiger skins? Or within two months? Are you kidding me? No matter how stupid Yelu Hongji is, he knows that the little Wanyan department will never be able to produce it. It is obvious that this fat pig is pretending to be a tiger.
, up and down their hands, just to line their own pockets.
After hearing this, the silver medal envoy from the Liao Kingdom looked troubled, and after a while, he seemed to have made up his mind: "In this case, I will take care of the relationship and give you one month's grace, and today's misunderstanding will not matter."
When Xu Zhuocheng heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief quietly.
However, the Silver Medal Messenger's next words made his heart sink to the bottom. The fat pig-like Silver Medal Messenger pointed at the ice-flower-like Wanyan Yingge on the side with his fat fingers, and the greed in his eyes almost solidified.
Content: "However, I want this girl to stay with me for one night to compensate for the crime of disrespect. Can this request be fulfilled?"
The smile that Xu Zhuocheng showed just now froze on his face: "Sir, are you kidding me? This girl is the sister of the leader of the Wuyasu clan."
After hearing this, the greed in the eyes of the silver medal messenger increased instead of decreasing: "That's better this way. Since it was her two brothers who were rude to me, then there's nothing wrong with letting his sister do the apology thing, right? What's more?
I am of noble birth, and being able to look after this country woman is a blessing that she will never be able to acquire in her lifetime. If I feel comfortable serving you, I might be merciful and say a few kind words in front of Your Majesty, and reward her brother.
