Chapter 351 Proud of the Khitan, Big Stone Forest Ya
"Yelu has been praised too much, and Xiao is too ashamed to deserve it." Xiao Tang said, cupping his hands to Yelu Yujian, and then walked towards Shi Jin. Panting Shi Jin stared at Xiao Tang, and he suddenly smiled,
He smiled heartily and happily, and gestured vigorously to Xiao Tang.
Seeing Shi Jin's free and easy appearance after a hearty fight, Xiao Tang stepped forward and patted Shi Jin's shoulder heavily. The two of them looked at each other and smiled, the feelings and emotions surging in each other's hearts at this moment.
Self-explanatory.
For Xiao Tang, he knew how unforgettable the dreams that many people in later generations had in their youthful years were. Perhaps imperfect youth is youth, so it will always leave people with many regrets.
According to Xiao Tang, among the heroes of Liangshan, Shi Jin has been an ignorant and straightforward young man with a knight-errant temperament and a strong sense of loyalty who is trying to make a name for himself. This is his youthful dream, Shi Jin.
Jin is a very cute person, and his story is very real. In the original work, Shi Jin, who was frivolous and energetic but hit a wall at every turn, gradually faded away, seems to mean that the restless youth will eventually lose to the cold reality. Xiao Tang wants to reverse the originally destined fate.
While making history, I also want to become a better version of myself with Shi Jin.
However, the current Shi Jin is the Shi Jin in Xiao Tang's mind, and this is the Shi Jin he wants to see.
Shi Jin looked up to the sky and closed his eyes, letting out a long sigh of relief. He looked at Qiong Yao Nayan and smiled calmly: "This competition was really fun! My skills are indeed not as good as yours! I also benefited from a fierce fight with you.
A lot, thank you!”
Qiong Yao Nayan hadn't had a hearty duel with anyone for a long time. He suddenly grinned and asked Shi Jin, "How old are you?"
Shi Jin was stunned for a moment, then snorted softly, and replied with a frown on his face: "I'm nineteen years old, what's wrong?"
Qiong Yao Nayan nodded and said to Shi Jin: "Actually, you are very capable. When I was your age, I was not as good as you. If there is still a chance, let's have a good fight."
After Shi Jin heard this, his facial features instantly relaxed, and he nodded to Qiong Yao Nayan and said only one word: "Okay!"
Qiong Yao Nayan smiled faintly, and then he bowed respectfully to Xiao Tang, and then retreated to the banquet where the Liao officials were sitting.
"Eating wine like this is refreshing and satisfying. You should drink another gourd happily!" Yelu Yujian laughed and said, then he toasted to Tong Guan, Zheng Yunzhong and Xiao Tang and said: "Now Wu has also fought for wine and drank.
This is what makes people happy! The envoy from Song Dynasty came from afar, so he had to have a drink first!"
Xiao Tang smiled faintly. When he just returned to his seat, he found Tong Guan looking towards him and nodded to him with approval.
※※
"The Liao people have always had a high regard for themselves. They are arguing with those guys here in Zhuozhou. It is because of the presence of Xiao Xian's nephew that they are frightened by the Liao people and have not lost the dignity of the Song Dynasty."
After the banquet, Tong Guan said to Xiao Tang in the guest room where the Song envoys rested in Zhuoxian County.
Xiao Tang smiled indifferently and said: "The customs and habits of the Liao Kingdom are like this, and the generals are just trying to find ways to deal with them."
After Tong Guan heard this, his words were slightly stagnant. After thinking for a moment, Tong Guan then said: "The entourage led by the nephew of a certain family, Guan Xian, and the other followers are all fine people, but tonight the embroidery on his body is...
Jiuwenlong, also known as Shi Jin, although brave, is also naive and reckless. The wise nephew brought him here as an envoy, but he lost his mind.
Although the matter of dealing with Yelu Yanxi, Emperor Tianzuo of the Liao Kingdom, has to be dealt with by a certain family. After arriving at the Xijin Mansion, you and I will go our separate ways. The good nephew will just go to the north to purchase northern pearls, but that person is not responsible. It's of no great use, it's just some words that a certain family needs to advise their wise nephew."
But for now, I know that what you Tong Guan said is a good intention... Xiao Tang thought to himself, after he promised Tong Guan, he said haha: "Tong Jieshuai's teachings." I will keep this in mind. I am on an envoy to Liao, and it is very important to conduct a survey of Liao. The younger generation is just purchasing some rare treasures for the official family. Ordinary ministers can do it, but they are not as good as Tongjieshuai. Is it so important?"
After hearing this, Tong Guan's face showed a look of extreme disdain. He snorted coldly and said: "Emperor Tianzuo of the Liao Dynasty is fatuous. There are frequent chaos in the Liao Dynasty. There are disputes over the establishment of heirs, rebellions by alien races, and there has been a wave of turmoil in various countries. Peace comes one after another, even though it has been contending with the Song Dynasty for more than a hundred years. But in its current situation, do you think it can compete with the Song Dynasty? Hehe... A certain family was able to pacify Xixia and Tubo back then. What does the Liao Kingdom mean to you!?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Tong Guan frowned and looked at Xiao Tang. When Tong Guan saw that Xiao Tang's expression was calm, he calmed down. Then Tong Guan said to Xiao Tang again: "It's getting late, so my nephew should have rested earlier. When we get to Xijin Mansion, we still have to argue with those Liao people."
It seems that Tong Guan has made up his mind a long time ago... Xiao Tang thought in his mind as he said goodbye to Tong Guan and went out. However, less than a moment later, Tong Guan's door opened. There was a knock on the door again, and someone was heard whispering in front of the door: "I'm Lang Ma Zhi, the son of the Han family, and I'm here to pay homage to Tong Jie Shuai."...
Early the next morning, the Song envoys set off again from Zhuoxian County, Zhuozhou. Zheng Yunzhong, Tong Guan, Xiao Tang and other Song envoys, led by Yelu Yujian and other Liao officials, passed through Liangxiang and Wanping and came to the Five Kingdoms of Liao. Nanjing, one of the capitals, analyzes Tianjin Prefecture.
It is analyzed that Jin Mansion is located in an important area of Youzhou, and people of Khitan, Han, Xi, Bohai, Jurchen and other ethnic groups gather in the city. When Xiao Tang entered the city and looked around, he saw a bustling and lively scene. He heard the sounds of pedestrians and merchants shouting and selling. , Xiao Tang took another cursory look, and felt that there was no difference between this place and Lianglufu in Hebei Province, and Damingfu, one of the four capitals of the Song Dynasty.
When Xiao Tang, Tong Guan and other envoys met in Yelu, A Qi, Qiong Yao Nayan and other Liao generals escorted them out of the city and passed two squares, they saw another knight rushing towards them. They were doing their best to be Khitan athletes. When they were dressed up, Arich, Qiong Yao Nayan and other officers saw the two of them, they immediately bowed and said in unison: "I have seen two young generals!"
General Liao, one of the two people who were worshiped by Arich and others, took the lead. He galloped out, looked at Zheng Yunzhong, Tong Guan, Xiao Tang and others, then snorted and said: "You are the ones An envoy from the Song Dynasty? Come with me."
Tong Guan saw that the young general who came to greet him did not know the etiquette. His face darkened. Just when he was about to argue, another young official from the Liao Kingdom, about twenty-four or five years old, also came out and said to the young general: "We This behavior to welcome the envoys from the Song Dynasty must not be rude."
After hearing this, the young general smiled and said: "Brother, I just followed my father's wishes and allowed you to see me many times before I came with my brother to welcome this group of Song people. We Jurchens don't have so many customary etiquette and rules to deal with. It's up to you to deal with them."
The young Liao official chuckled after hearing this. He turned around and bowed respectfully to Zheng Yunzhong, Tong Guan, Xiao Tang and other Song envoys. Not only did he speak Chinese fluently and pure, but he also
Very polite and courteous:
"The envoy of the Song Dynasty is here to visit us. We have missed the welcome from afar, but we hope that you will forgive me. I am at Yelu Dashi. Please follow me to the embassy to have a rest."
