[Seven-Five] I Long Song

When Mr. Bao couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food, he ate together, Zhan Zhao's cheeks were already bulging, and he didn't forget to remind Yang Chizhang that he had been arrested as a young man while eating. "Chi Zhang, there are still 10 days until the emperor's Christmas, and it is estimated that the diplomatic missions from various countries will enter Kaifeng one after another in 3 days. Remember to go with me when the time comes."

Yang Chizhang swallowed the stewed prawns with scallions in his mouth, quite puzzled: "Isn't the matter of welcoming the envoys under the control of the Ministry of Rites? Besides, why did the envoys come so early?"

Zhan Zhao was also very helpless: "What can I do? The Minister of Rites is 56 years old this year. His hair and beard are all white. He begs you to help him. If he doesn't agree, he will kneel down for you. Can you not agree?" The kneeling first-rank official heard Yang Chizhang startled for a while. Sure enough, the higher the rank, the more unscrupulous he is? Yang Chizhang quietly glanced at Mr. Bao who was tearing apart the crabs.

Master Bao thought that Yang Chizhang wanted to ask him why the envoys came so early, but he never expected that someone would doubt his integrity, so he put down the crab that had been divided into five horses, and explained: "It is a custom for envoys from various countries to come to Beijing early. In case the emperor wants to summon the envoys of some country on a whim, and is it convenient to communicate with each other even if he comes earlier."

What Mr. Bao said was cryptic, what about emotional connection, in fact, find some high-ranking and favored people to give gifts to, such as Grand Master Pang and Concubine Pang.Those small and remote countries with modest national strengths surrendered a lot of offerings to the Song Dynasty every year. If they could encourage Concubine Pang to blow some pillow wind and pay less than [-]% and half, it would be enough for them to breathe for a long time.

Yang Chizhang understood the deep meaning of Mr. Bao's words, nodded, and saw Mr. Bao was fighting with that crab again, so he leaned into Gongsun's ear and whispered, "Does Mr. Bao like crabs very much?"

Gongsun Ce glanced at Mr. Bao, and replied helplessly, "Master Bao doesn't like to eat any crabs, but he has a grudge against crabs."

Oh~~~Yang Chizhang realized that the TV dramas were all made up after all, Mr. Bao and Grand Master Pang were indeed not at odds.

Gongsun Ce explained in a low voice: "Master Bao and Mr. Pang Da have had a grievance for more than ten years. Our lord just can't tolerate a little sand in our eyes, so we don't like Mr. Pang Da's tactful official position. In fact, in my opinion, The two adults are more like friends picking bones from each other's eggs."

Well, the TV series is still a lie, Yang Chizhang silently ate a big mouthful of crab roe.

Three days passed in a flash, and as Zhan Zhao expected, the envoys of the Liao Kingdom had already arrived not far from Kaifeng City at noon.Before Yang Chizhang had time to speak to Gongsun Ce, he was forced to change into the official uniform of the Minister of Rites, and then mixed with officials of all sizes to meet the envoys outside the city.

Afraid that Yang Chizhang would be worried, Zhan Zhao explained: "Lord Bao has already told the emperor in advance that he has invited a knight-errant to help out, so you can wear it boldly without worry!"

Well, you bastard, you sold me to Zhao Zhen if you disagreed!Did you get my consent?I'm not from your Kaifeng mansion!

Yang Chizhang slandered, and said, "It's just a servant's official uniform, but do other officials know that I am airborne like this?"

Facts have proved that Yang Chizhang's worries are not superfluous.Regarding the matter of Yang Chizhang being sent to the Ministry of Rites, Zhan Zhao only communicated with the Minister of Rites, and the others were completely unaware.When he followed the Minister of Rites and appeared in the welcome line outside the city, other officials of the Ministry of Rites stared at him one after another, and then whispered all kinds of things in their ears.Yang Chizhang didn't want to hear it either, but martial arts practitioners have sharp eyes and ears, so he got these words into his ears.

Official A of the Ministry of Rites said: "Why is this lord so unfamiliar? Judging by his official uniform, he is clearly a servant!"

Can you not be surprised, this is also the first time I wear this minister's official uniform.

Official B of the Ministry of Etiquette said: "Look at this lord, he looks very talented and has an outstanding demeanor. He is really a young talent!"

Thank you for the compliment, I dare not take it, I dare not take it.

Official C of the Ministry of Rites said: "I have a young girl in my family, who is old enough to look like a good match with that adult. I don't know if the other party is married. I will ask after a while!"

Thanks to the wrong love, although I am not married, I already have a sweetheart.

......

I can't tell that this group of serious adults love gossip so much. On such an important occasion to welcome foreign envoys, some people still want to marry their daughters!Yang Chizhang couldn't laugh or cry.

Then in such a cheerful atmosphere of gossip, a cold gaze suddenly locked on him, Yang Chizhang immediately turned his head vigilantly, but the gaze disappeared immediately, and at a glance, it was still the original scene, with a harmonious atmosphere It doesn't make people feel the slightest difference.

The warning line in Yang Chizhang's heart was immediately raised to the highest level. He couldn't tell, but he always felt that the process of welcoming the envoys of the Liao Kingdom this time would not be so peaceful.Although there is no evidence, and it does not work every time, but Yang Chizhang's sudden premonition has saved him several times, and he is not afraid of [-], just in case, it is always good to make more preparations.

So after listening to Yang Chizhang's words, Zhan Zhao didn't laugh at Yang Chizhang's superstitious nonsense, and went back silently to bring out most of the people in Kaifeng Mansion.

After about a cup of tea, a large group of figures riding on horses finally appeared in front of Yang Chizhang. The leader was eight feet tall with slightly sunken eye sockets.Hair on the top, hair hanging by the ears, and big gold earrings on both ears.Seeing that he dismounted from the horse, his posture was vigorous, crisp and neat, so it can be seen that he is also a practitioner with strong martial arts.

The Minister of Rites greeted him respectfully and without losing his grace: "I didn't expect the second prince to come to Song Dynasty in person this year. My emperor must be very happy when he finds out."

The second prince of the Liao Kingdom may have had a lot of wind and sand blowing outside the Great Wall, and he looked vicissitudes on his face, but he actually spoke with a clear, youthful voice.Although I tried my best to look like a calm prince, the action of helping people is still somewhat lively: "Please get up quickly. Anyway, this prince is bored in the country, so I asked my father for this good job." .”

This is what I said, if you weren't bored in your relationship, wouldn't you come to Song Dynasty to celebrate His Majesty the Emperor's birthday?The second prince couldn't speak anymore, Yang Chizhang saw many officials frowned quietly, and the short young man dressed as a servant next to the second prince was also desperately pulling the prince's sleeve, obviously to remind him.

The second prince closed his mouth in embarrassment, and the Minister of the Ministry of Rites quickly changed the subject: "Prince is tired from traveling and traveling, so let's quickly follow the officials back to the post to rest." So the officials of the Ministry of Rites opened the way in front, and the Liao Kingdom's brigade followed Hurry up and follow.

Although Yang Chizhang is a fake servant, he does a full set of plays, and Zhan Zhao also arranged a sedan chair for him.Ever since he got into the sedan chair, the premonition of danger has been lingering, and he couldn't help holding his breath, listening carefully to every move outside.

When passing through the most densely packed section of shops and vendors on Kaifeng Long Street, Yang Chizhang heard the second prince in the back order the attendants beside him: "Buy me two tea eggs and come back." Then he probably saw the sugar maker again, and said: "I want another candy in human form."

Yang Chizhang was speechless, he was the only co-author who was worried here, and the prince was still thinking about eating and drinking.The Liao country is so poor, even thinking about a tea egg so much?Do you have to eat now?

Then I heard the attendant get off the horse and bargain skillfully with the tea egg seller: "Three eggs for ten renminbi are too expensive, how about five for fifteen renminbi?" The arithmetic is good enough, and I heard a "bang", as if something was overturned and hit the ground!

The stove of tea eggs!The sound of the egg rolling around on the ground is absolutely unmistakable!

Yang Chizhang jumped out of the sedan chair, and at the same time several sharp voices exploded around: "Come here, protect the prince! Someone is assassinating!"

The author has something to say:

I'm going to enter v tomorrow, and it's estimated to be [-] changes, so today's word count is a little less, sorry.
