Jiapingguan Chronicle

Chapter 76 I'm Sorry

"Wan Yanxi is in the mission of the special envoy of the Liao Kingdom?"

Shen Cha held back for a whole day, and she didn't tell the news until she returned to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion at night when only she and Shen Haolin were left in Huqiu.It's not that she can't trust Xue Ruitian and Jin Jing. It's better that as few people know about this kind of news that hasn't been fully confirmed, the better, lest it leak out before they can figure out a way to deal with it. Pile, can be bad.

"What did Xiao Min say in the letter, but I'm not sure." Shen Cha jumped over Shen Haolin, jumped off the bed, ran to the outside room, and took out the secret letter that she just received today from her small box for secret letters. He pulled the shoes and ran back, shivering with cold, and quickly got under the quilt. "Xiao Min said in the letter that various countries have sent special envoys to lead missions to Xijing to celebrate the New Year and attend the princess's wedding."

"Tubo is also going through Hanyu Pass this time, so we are not afraid to run into Huihe, and the two families will fight in front of Hanyu Pass?"

"Brother was joking." Shen Cha originally wanted to yawn, but when he heard Shen Haolin's words, he held back, "According to my Great Xia's rules, the congratulatory mission should not exceed one hundred people at most, and the number of soldiers should not exceed one hundred." Fifty people, otherwise the border has the right not to let them go. Tubo and Huihe, the combined strength of the two missions is no more than a hundred people. The shrew is cursing." Shen Cha leaned on Shen Haolin's shoulder very unceremoniously, "The scene I met at the Golden Palace when I returned to Beijing the year before last still leaves a deep impression on me."

Just in the spring of the year before last, Shen Cha followed Shen Haolin and Xue Ruitian back to Beijing to report on his duties. By chance, he met the Tubo and Huihe missions who came to Beijing to pay tribute at the same time. They scolded each other loudly in front of the ministers, and later felt that they were not enjoying themselves, so they staged a full-scale martial arts, pulling hair, scratching faces, etc., making as much noise as possible.

The so-called upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. Song Jue, the emperor, is afraid of chaos in the world and loves to watch the excitement. He led the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty to show this tendency. At the beginning, the two The envoys of the country scolded each other, and the servants went up to dissuade them. They didn't really dissuade them, but they just wanted to show their hearts.After being rejected, the Great Xia monarch and ministers began to watch the show with peace of mind.

In the end, it was the Tubo envoy who won the match by relying on his own weight... Oh, no, it was the victory of cursing, shaking his head that was scratched by the Huihe people, and walked away triumphantly.The Huihe envoy lost the battle, but he did not embarrass his country. Although he was disgraced by the Tubo people and pulled out a lock of hair, he did not seldom deal with that fat man.

Later, this so-called envoy dispute between the two countries, which was written in the history books of Da Xia, was described by Shen Cha as a shrew from the two countries.

"I heard that the envoy from Huihe lost to the Tubo people because he felt that he suffered a loss in body shape. Not like the Tubo people." Although Shen Haolin was joking, his eyes did not leave the letter, "The special envoy of the Liao Kingdom Mission is actually Xiao Fengqi, Yelu is finally willing to release his precious nephew for others to see?"

"It's not that I'm willing, but I have to be willing, otherwise it's time to kill someone."

"He got involved in a life lawsuit?" Shen Haolin frowned, "If that's the case, we can't let him go."

"Where did you go, brother? That's not the case. Xiao Fengqi entered the North Privy Council at 13 years old. In the past few years, he has only been doing errands in a peaceful manner, but he can gain a firm foothold in the North Privy Council only by relying on his duty." Impossible. Our people in the North Privy Council said that he has attracted a group of clan children who are similar to his age in the North Privy Council, and he is about to catch up with those old people in the limelight."

"Is it because those old guys feel uneasy? Xiao Fengqi's existence has hindered them a bit."

"That's Xiao Fengqi's own fault too. Since he wants to pretend to be an honest child, he has to keep pretending. The front side and the back side will show his feet sooner or later." Shen Cha sighed. The reason why he was sent out was because people from the North Privy Council filed a complaint in front of him, dissatisfied with Xiao Fengqi for forming a clique and dealing with them old people. Although Yelu loves this nephew, he can't oppose the entire North Privy Council just because of him. What's more, more than People from the North Privy Council and the South Privy Council asked Yelu to reprimand him."

"His hand has been stretched long enough to reach the South Privy Council!" Shen Haolin shook his head, "You are not very young, and you have a lot of ambitions. You haven't done anything yet, but you want to install your own people in both the North and South Privy Councils. Yelu is a suspicious guy, people from the North and South Privy Council filed complaints one after another, but he didn't say anything, but he probably felt a little jealous in his heart?"

"Nine times out of ten, this is the case. Otherwise, how could Yelunan and Qi Zhifeng appear on the list of the mission? One is the cousin of the current Xiao Liao King, and Yelulan's son Yelulan is the same A close friend. There were rumors that he had stayed in the Kingdom of Jin for many years, and that Wanyanxi's father and brother's misfortune was caused by him alone. But this is just a rumor, but it has never been confirmed."

"If the rumors are true, this person should be listed as a key target."

"Yes, I have already let Xiaomin pay attention to him." Shen Cha nodded, "Although the other Qi Zhifeng has never been an official, his father is now the boss of the Southern Privy Council, and his mother is the daughter of the Yelu clan. Yelulan grew up together, and the three of them are like brothers. These two seem to be deputy envoys, but they should be the real masters of the entire mission, and Xiao Fengqi is just a decoration."

"Yelu... has always been worried about the Xiao family, and he can't fully trust the children of the Xiao family. He is afraid that there will be another person like his grandmother." Shen Haolin tapped the name of the third deputy envoy on the letter, " So, this third deputy envoy named Yanxie, do you suspect that it is Wan Yanxi?"

"There are only three executives named Yan in Linhuang Mansion, one of them is our own, and the details are clear. After a little inquiring about the other two, we know that there is no such person named Yanxie. One has never been in Liao People who have appeared in the Guochao Hall, or even who have not appeared in Linhuang Mansion, have become the deputy envoys of the Liao Kingdom's court congratulatory mission, and are on an equal footing with Yelunan and Qi Zhifeng. Suspicious? And... after this Yanxie appeared, Wanyanxi disappeared strangely."

"The Jin Kingdom Mission has only one special envoy, Wanyan and Wen. Wanyan and Wen are at odds with Wanyan's father and daughter. He is the leader of the nobles who are against them in this flood, right?"

"Yes, he still has another identity." Shen Cha turned his face slightly, and smiled at Shen Haolin, "The only one who supports Wanyanxi unconditionally."

"Unconditional support? Even if Wan Yanxi trades all of Jin Kingdom for the throne, will he still support it?"

"Well, although they are not biological brothers, they have had a good relationship since childhood." Shen Cha nodded, took the secret letter from Shen Haolin's hand, and threw it into the charcoal basin beside the bed.If she didn't want to show Shen Haolin this kind of special secret letter, she would burn it immediately after reading it.As for the small box, it was filled with insignificant things, which would not reveal the eyeliner she had arranged in Liaojin at all.Seeing the secret letter burned to ashes, Shen Cha yawned, leaned on Shen Haolin's shoulder and closed his eyes, and said in a low voice, "Wanyan and Wen are at odds with Wanyan's father and daughter, but they can become golden You are the special envoy of China to visit Daxia, brother, don’t you think it’s amazing?”

"Maybe he was having too much fun in the country. Wanyan Zongcheng and Wanyan Ping thought he was an eyesore, so they simply threw him out. From the Kingdom of Jin to Daxia, and then back to the Kingdom of Jin from Daxia , Two months have passed. Or maybe..." Shen Haolin looked down at Shen Cha, who was leaning on his shoulder and seemed to be asleep, "Did he do it on purpose?"

"I also think it was intentional." Shen Cha felt that the candle light was a bit dazzling, so he asked Shen Haolin to put out two, and said, "He should have always known about Wan Yanxi's whereabouts, and would give him some help from time to time, in terms of money and information. There are all of them. Wanyanxi went to ask Yelu for help, maybe it was his suggestion, he is the same as Wanyanxi, even if the country is subjugated, he will not bow to Daxia."

"So, after knowing that Wan Yanxi had infiltrated the Liao Kingdom's mission, he also tried to get Wanyan Zongcheng and Wanyan Ping to send him to Da Xia, with the purpose of meeting Wan Yanxi?"

"It should be like this. Otherwise, with the hundred or so people they brought with them, would they still want to sneak attack? Besides, I checked, and this time the list of Jin Kingdom missions didn't even have fifty people, but Chaohe's gift They are all very valuable. Obviously, they don't take this special envoy seriously. If they send such a small number of people to escort such an expensive gift, it will be interesting if they encounter robbers." Shen Cha sneered, "Then For father and daughter, I wish Wanyan and Wen would kill themselves and die on the way to this mission!"

"After entering Jiaping Pass City, our people will follow us at every stop, and we will definitely let him return to Yiqing Mansion safely." Shen Haolin hugged Shen Cha in his arms, "When will the Liao and Jin missions come back to Yiqing Mansion?" Arrive? Will we be able to meet it here?"

"Based on the date of departure, the Liao mission can arrive on the 25th of the twelfth lunar month. They used to have lunch here before passing through the city without spending the night in the city. I think it will be the same this time. The Kingdom of Jin mission came to us on the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, so they won't meet here at all."

"It seems that we plan to meet in Beijing." Shen Haolin sighed, "Remember to send a letter to His Majesty tomorrow, be a little more subtle, and let the shadow be sent to His Majesty as soon as possible. Oh, I suddenly feel very good."

"Is it because I found something interesting for His Majesty?"

"That's right, to save him from fussing about during the Chinese New Year. With envoys from two countries attracting his attention, Bai Meng's pressure should be less?"

"Brother... Are you starting to feel sorry for Bai Meng?" Shen Cha pouted, "Brother Xiaotian said, he is always against you. In fact, he is against Brother Xiaotian, right? Because the commander-in-chief has admired him since he was a child Brother, I want to fight side by side with my brother like Brother Xiaotian. Unfortunately, Brother Xiaotian snatched the opportunity, so he will not be reconciled, jumping up and down all day, right?"

"Well, why do I smell a sour smell?" Shen Haolin lowered his head, and looked at Shen Cha with his eyes closed, his face and ears slightly red with a smile, "Is Cha'er jealous? Don't worry, Bai Meng That guy is never going to replace you, never will be."

"Brother!"

"Is this embarrassing?" Seeing Shen Cha's widened eyes, Shen Haolin smiled, "Okay, I won't tease you, don't be angry!" Shen Haolin patted Shen Cha on the back, "Hey, sleep well Come on, let's talk about everything tomorrow!"

"Okay, brother also go to bed earlier, good night!"

Shen Haolin blew out the last candle, closed his eyes and waited for a while, and only opened his eyes when he heard that Shen Cha's breathing gradually became steady.

Holding the sleeping person in his arms tightly, he suddenly felt a sense of relief. It seems that his family's tea is not indifferent to him, but he just didn't realize it, otherwise he wouldn't be embarrassed, so he just needs to Just stay by her side and wait for her to slowly come to her senses.
