Huo Qing lost in riding and archery, and felt depressed and worried. The commander of the imperial army who was competing with foreign generals with him saw that he was not moving, and dragged him off.

Haoqing said stubbornly: "No, I lost the competition for the first time working for the boss, how can I get the money every month after that..."

"Boss? What boss? Don't look, do you know how many battles that Beiliao envoy fought? Even the late emperor fought against him. When Duke Xing was alive, he was evenly matched with him, let alone us."

"I won't go, I can't compare to him in archery." Huo Qing pulled back his sleeves and walked to the center of the school grounds, knelt on one knee and said, "Your Majesty, I'm a rough man who can't read, and I can't compare with these generals in archery. But as a general, how can he only compare himself to riding and shooting."

The translators of each country recounted Huo Qing's words.

Yelufang then asked, "What do you want to compare?"

"Wrestling."

Yelu Fang, the envoy of the Northern Liao Dynasty, even had gray hair, so the envoy Xia stepped forward and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, General Yelu is old, and I recommend myself. I will come down to replace General Yelu and compete with your majesty's personal officials."

"Okay, I will give you another lottery. The winner will be given a golden saddle and a royal horse."

"Thank you for your forgiveness." The envoy of the Northern Liao Dynasty thanked the emperor and returned to the seat for watching the game.

"Who does my sister think will win?"

"Judging from the body, Commander Huo does not have the upper hand, but Commander Huo should not lose against brute force, but wrestling is not only based on brute force, but also has methods and ingenuity."

"Horseback and archery let them take the limelight..."

In the middle of the school grounds, two generals took off their sleeved armguards and coats. Xue Jin stepped forward and patted Huo Qing, "This time the Xixia and Beiliao were all in the limelight. The officials are very unhappy. This person is General Xixia, who grew up in the army, can you be a big guy?"

Huo Qing patted his chest, "I can't compare to you in riding and shooting, but in wrestling, I beat my father when I was young. My father is bigger than me."

"... "

Ye Lishi rolled up his sleeves to reveal his thick arms. Seeing the silly face of Song Ting general who was a little taller than himself, he didn't quite understand why the emperor would choose such a person as his personal guard, "You are the son of the emperor. Follow me?"

"What?" Huo Qing couldn't understand what he said, and when a green robe stepped forward to translate Ye Lishi's words to him, he took off his boots and stepped into the sand in the school field, " Never mind, let's get started."

Notoshi turned his head sideways and stepped into the sand pool with his boots on.

Huo Qing recalled the competition with those commanders and generals in the Imperial City Division, and immediately squinted his eyes and bowed his waist.

The emperor on the throne was apparently watching the wrestling in the sand pool, but he was also observing the attitudes of the envoys from various countries. When he glanced from near to far, he happened to meet the middle-aged man behind the vacant seat of the Xixia envoy.

The man wearing the golden crown immediately lowered his head, his eyes dodged for a moment when they looked at each other, and he also showed an extremely guilty conscience.

The emperor turned sideways and smiled at Xiao Youqing, "Sister."

"Huh?" The person who was watching the competition came back to his senses.

The emperor spread his hands, "Is there anything on me?"

There is a nine-ring belt around the waist of the light yellow robe, nothing else, Xiao Youqing couldn't understand what she meant, and immediately shook his head and said: "What's wrong with the official family?"

The emperor took his hand back, leaned on the armrest and said, "I saw someone secretly looking at me just now. Doesn't he think I'm too good-looking?"

Xiao Youqing turned her head to stare at her, then covered her mouth and said happily, "The one who peeked at you must be a man."

"Hey, how did my sister know?"

"Did the concubine say it was a letter from a mind-reading official?"

"I believe everything you say."

Xiao Youqing laughed again: "Apart from courtiers, nuns and concubines who understand the rules, how can there be other women and wives?"

"I don't like being stared at by people other than my sister. I don't have gold on me and I don't shine. They have nothing but admiration and fear in their eyes, but this is better than the previous contempt." The emperor suddenly lowered his face and looked at the Beiliao envoy on one side.

Xiao Youqing also looked at the seat of envoys on the right side, "Yelufang fought with the late emperor, he must have compared the officials with the late emperor to be so arrogant, and the officials came to the throne. It's just hearsay, and I believe that the official family will impress them in the future."

"It depends on whether they have the opportunity to see it with their own eyes."

——Crack! —— There was applause from the school grounds, and immediately someone cheered again and again, "Good!"

The person who was thrown to the ground was actually a person wearing boots, one of the boots fell off from his feet, and the whole person was pressed into the sand and could not move.

"Boy, although I don't understand what you say, the officials have also told me that the arrogant will definitely underestimate the enemy. See, you will suffer."

Ye Lishi's head was half buried in the sand, and he stared at the other eye angrily, puffing out his cheeks in disbelief.

"You're too weak, you'd better eat a few more years before you come back." Huo Qing smiled and grabbed Ye Lishi's skirt and lifted him from the sand pool to the top of his head.

"Aren't you convinced!" Huo Qing laughed while exhaling the mist that could be seen in winter.

"Put me down." Ye Lishi blushed, making the envoys from various countries watching the game laugh.

"Okay, since you have won Commander Huo, let him go." The emperor on the throne said.

Huo Qing put him down, and none of the officials and envoys at the banquet on both sides dared to laugh anymore.

"According to what I said just now, give Commander Huo a horse, go down and receive the reward."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After being put down, Ye Lishi looked for boots everywhere, and after putting them on, he gradually lost his resignation, and cupped his fists at Huo Qing in admiration.

Huo Qing put his ear to the side of the green robe, and then stroked his beard and smiled, "Whatever it is, I'm a few years older than you and eat a few more years of food. It's unreasonable to lose to you in everything. Let's fight next time."

Ye Li Yang Sheng lowered his head and said with a smile, "I hope there will be a next time. When you and I fight again, we won't be on the battlefield."

The Privy Council is in charge of the Qun Mu Si, and the deputy envoy of the Privy Council is also the setting envoy. The servant who is the deputy envoy of the Qun Mu Si went to the school grounds and crossed his hands at Huo Qing and said, "Commander Huo, please follow the villain to the Qun Mu Si to select horses."

"it is good."

-------------------------------

After the shooting banquet dispersed, the emperor returned to the palace in a chariot. When the envoys from various countries left one after another, Yelufang, the envoy of the Northern Liao Dynasty, was left alone in Yujin Garden.

The winter wind in the southern suburbs was extremely cold, and it blew on people's faces like knives. The emperor's guard of honor lined up on the official road in the southern suburbs to the gate of Nanxun, and all the officials stood waiting in the wind with their sleeves up.

Seeing that the sky was getting darker, a group of noble officials wondered: "Why haven't the officials come out yet?"

"Could it be that the Beiliao envoy contradicted His Royal Highness and made His Majesty displeased?"

There were no Song court officials wearing red and purple clothes in the school grounds, only some servants and guards were still with the emperor.

Yelufang didn't understand the emperor's intention, "What does it mean for the emperor to leave his subjects alone?"

"I don't mean anything else, I just don't like Liao envoy's completely different attitude towards me and the late emperor."

Yelufang raised his head, "You are the emperor, so I respect you, but I, the Khitan, always obey the strong. The emperor's country does not respect the strong, only the noble. Even the woman who gave birth to life has to be trampled on. Be in awe, otherwise you will not receive the blessing of Changshengtian."

"You respect the strong, but at the same time you hate the strong. The sixteen prefectures were confiscated by the late emperor himself. The generals were the queen's grandfather and father, but they were originally Han lands."

"Duke Xiao is a hero of a generation, and his daughter has become one." Yelufang clasped his fists at Xiao Youqing, "The noble queen was raised in a golden house."

"The Liao envoy knows that these words are in the Song Dynasty, can he be beheaded?"

"It's not just once or twice that I have entered the court alone under the order of my emperor. Every time before coming, I have someone prepare the coffin at home."

Xiao Youqing walked down the steps and walked up to Yelufang with steady steps, "The customs of the Northern Liao Dynasty are different from those of the Central Plains, and what they worship is also different, but there is one thing that everyone in the world has. Do you also have feelings? Do you have someone you like? Will you do something for her that surprises you?"

Yelufang suddenly fell silent after listening to Xiao Youqing's words.

"What kind of woman does the general think the general family should raise to be worthy of the so-called general family and not to disgrace the honor of the ancestors?"

Yelufang took a deep breath and clasped his fists at Xiao Youqing, "I just feel that the emperor's ministers are too noisy, and I don't think it's worth it for you."

"It turns out that Uncle Yelu still remembers when you were young."

"As a general, but lost to a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, how dare I forget it."

Xiao Youqing smiled and turned around to walk up to the emperor.

The emperor looked at Xiao Youqing with doubts on his face, hesitated for a moment, and then turned to Yelu and said seriously: "When the late emperor succeeded to the throne, the relationship between Song and Liao deteriorated. The late emperor did not want to do business with you, but I am different. I was born in Taiping, but I also saw the chaos of war. The pain brought to the people, I have never liked war, the alliance can be re-concluded, but you, the Northern Liao Dynasty, need to promise me that you will not raise troops against each other within ten years."

"I will tell my emperor when I go back."

Yelv walked away from the guard Huan and asked sideways, "Is the saint familiar with this general?"

"He belongs to the royal family of the Northern Liao Dynasty. During the reign of the late emperor, he entered the court many times, and he fought against the late emperor on the battlefield. He is especially admired by the late emperor. When I was young, I won his pot throwing and riding and shooting, but I used a crossbow. At that time ...The official family is still the county king, it should be in Sichuan."

"I'm a little envious of being able to compete with my sister in riding and shooting?"

"It turns out that officials are also envious of others."

"No, it's jealousy."

"Then when I go back, the concubine will take the time to practice swords with the official's family?"

Wei Huan blinked his eyes and nodded again and again: "Then sister can't bully me like Zigu, she won't spare any tricks."

The servant on the side raised his head after listening, blinking his eyes in a daze, "Official, villain..."

"Isn't it? You don't act out even if you ask for a trick, and it makes me lose face every time."

The emperor's tone was very relaxed and there was a joke in his words, the servant bowed and smiled and said: "The villain is guilty."

"It's obvious that the officials themselves didn't work hard, so they blamed Xue's deeds instead."

"Most of the time looking for Zigu to practice swords is just to vent, anyway, I don't need to go to the battlefield in the future."

"Does the official really think so?"

"I know how much I have. How can I go to the battlefield to entrap soldiers without the talent for fighting? Those are the emperor's subjects."

"Remember the concubine, when the official family wants to conscript in person one day, the concubine must bring out the official words."

"..."

-----------------------

After the shooting banquet, the emperor returned to the palace in a chariot. The next day, the envoys of various countries entered the court to pay homage.

【"The sage knows that if you were the first emperors, all the women who paid tribute would be filled into the inner palace. It's just that the sage has nothing to say, but he still feels more or less uncomfortable in his heart."] The emperor sat on the throne without moving. , lowering your head and thinking about something, the flattery of the countries saying goodbye has long been forgotten.

Feng Yu walked steadily into the hall with the imperial wine in his hand. The emperor gave the wine to the envoys of various countries. After drinking the wine in the cup, the envoys bowed to the emperor.

When the envoys left, the emperor got up from his seat and walked forward with his hands behind his back, saying, "When you go back, tell your lord that whoever dares to send more women to pay tribute from now on will not have to go to the Song Dynasty to pay tribute."

The envoys stared at each other, "Yes."

After the envoys left, the emperor summoned Xue Jin and the other two in the Chuigong Hall to act as officials of the imperial city.

The Goryeo envoy returned to Tongwenguan to pack his bags, "I don't know about other countries, but it is a custom in Goryeo to pay tribute to the heavens. It is the custom of Goryeo to pay tribute to the suzerain. Even an overlord like Emperor Wuzong has never refused to pay tribute. We will bring the words of the emperor to His Highness." ?"

"Didn't you see the emperor's empress at the shooting banquet yesterday? She seems to be a very strong woman, and she only gave in to a seasoned general in a few words, let alone a young king."

"It's a good thing that you don't need to make an offering. Anyway, His Highness doesn't want to send the princess to marry far away in the Central Plains."

A carriage drove out from Duting West Station. Inside the carriage, a man wearing a golden crown handed over a painting to Mrs. Yeli, "I asked the general to take a look at the painting I finished last night."

Yelishi opened the painting, and the handsome young king came into view, and immediately narrowed his deep eyes and said contemptuously: "Who would have known that Emperor Wuzong of Yingming I would be passed down to such a powerless person."

"The lower official heard that he ascended to the throne by relying on his wife's family, and today he said in the hall that women from all countries are not allowed to pay tribute...The lower official wonders whether the emperor of the Eastern Dynasty will rely on his relatives like Daxia, and the power will fall to the side. ..."

The painter was glared at by Ye Lishi, and then he lowered his head and said in a panic: "Your servant made a mistake."

---------------------------

In the beginning of spring in the third year of Qianyuan, on the eve of the beginning of spring, the Kaifeng government presented a spring ox to the ban.

The traveler flew into the forbidden area with a talisman, "Yan'an Mansion has an urgent document, the Xixia tribute envoy was assassinated, the deputy envoy and his entourage were killed, and the whereabouts of Ye Li Yang Sheng are unknown."

At the time of peace, the tribute envoy was suddenly assassinated in the territory of the suzerain state. The news shocked the ruling and opposition parties.

On the [-]th day of the first lunar month of the third year of Qianyuan, the imperial edict was issued directly by the imperial court, and the sergeant of Jijiaodipu held a gold plate and rang the bell day and night to clear the way to Yan'an Mansion and the Hexi border.

The author has something to say: Pedestrians: passers-by, passers-by

The general name of Zhulu County's communication delivery agencies is post office (delivery shop), with horse delivery as home and human delivery as post.

Delivery shop is divided into three classes, urgent foot delivery, horse delivery, step delivery.

Set up, send emergency sergeant documents.

Mail, pass government documents.

Gold medals are the fastest in the second-class delivery shop. Generally, the transmission is related to foreign countries, military secrets and emergencies. The edicts are issued directly by the imperial court without going through the three provinces and the Privy Council, that is, directly issued by the emperor without going through the second government. Ring the bell day and night to clear the way, "passing like flying electricity", and travel five hundred miles a day.

Military power is in the hands of officials.
