King of Song

Chapter 63

That night, the Lord of Liao hosted a banquet to surprise the envoys of the Song Dynasty and express his gratitude at the same time!
If it weren't for Lin Zhao, it would have been difficult for Queen Xiao Guanyin and her daughter to return safely. Even those Jurchen warriors who fought to the death went for Lin Zhao's face.

Furthermore, Nabo was in chaos, and more than [-] guards of the Song Dynasty mission were killed or injured. It is necessary to suppress the Song Dynasty envoys and make compensation...

Liao's internal affairs are currently unstable, and it is necessary to maintain a good relationship with the Song Dynasty.What's more, this time they were wronged first. As a big country, they still have this responsibility.

For this rebellion within the Liao Kingdom, the Song envoy fully expressed his understanding. Now that the Lord of Liao is so kind to invite him, he naturally cannot refuse.What's more, the dinner party can be regarded as an opportunity to deepen the relationship between Song and Liao, and to clarify the matters that should be resolved.Lin Zhao had a strange thought in his mind, wondering if he could see Xiao Guanyin tonight?

When night came, several Song envoys, under the guidance of the Liao people, came to the main tent of the Liao Lord, where the dinner will be held.

In a rebellion, the Liao Kingdom implicated the Song Dynasty missions, and the Song Dynasty envoys were full of confidence and waited for the Liao Kingdom to apologize.Liao envoy Xiao Jie's suicide in Bianjing also came to light, and the heavy mission of this envoy was completed, because the envoys were very relaxed.

The person who greeted him at the door was Yelu Yixin, whose status in the Liao Kingdom had risen, and it also showed the importance and kindness that the Liao Kingdom gave to the envoy of Song Dynasty.

"Envoy Lin, everyone in Daliao is grateful for saving the empress and princess of our country yesterday!" After saying hello, Yelu Yixin came to Lin Zhao with a smile on his face and a very friendly attitude.

Lin Zhao smiled and said, "Everything should be done, not to mention it's to save myself, isn't it? It's His Royal Highness Zhao who dispatched troops in time to suppress the rebellion and wipe out the rebels."

"Where, it's because the king's supervision is not strict, and the thieves have an opportunity to take advantage of it!" Yelu Yixin was polite, and seemed to blame himself.

Lin Zhao said with a smile: "However, His Royal Highness Zhao Wang seems to be lucky, whether it is earlier or later...but he will miss a great contribution!"

Yelv Yixin's expression was a little unnatural for a moment, could this kid see something?But as long as the emperor doesn't care, it doesn't matter.Lin Zhao was only trying to test it out, and immediately laughed after he got something: "It's really a coincidence, the heavens have pity on your country, I'm really envious, congratulations to King Zhao!"

"You're welcome, you're welcome! Your Majesty is waiting for your distinguished envoys, please!" Yelu Yixin laughed, and hurriedly changed the topic, and invited a few people into the camp.

Liao Lord Yelu Hongji stood up and said with a smile: "Welcome everyone, please take your seat!" Although Lin Zhao's tongue was full of lotus flowers yesterday morning, he made him look ashamed, and he was very angry at that time.

But he saved his wife and daughter, and his son Yelujun was able to escape.Naturally, the minor grievances and grievances of yesterday were forgotten, and he politely greeted Lin Zhao to take a seat, and he was still the lord.

Although Zhang Zongyi and Zeng Gong were ranked first, Lin Zhao's contribution lies there. He discovered the rebellion and rescued the queen and princess of the Liao Kingdom.So the two elders consciously sat back and gave up their seats. Lin Zhao smiled shyly and refused politely.

Yelu Hongji said with a smile: "What happened yesterday is really Xie Lin's envoy. If you and Jun'er hadn't discovered the conspiracy of the rebels in time, I wouldn't be able to mobilize the army in time to suppress the rebellion."

"Where, it's just a coincidence, Your Majesty is serious!" Lin Zhao thought to himself, you should thank King Zhao, it's all Yelu Yixin who handled it well.It's just that this guy was clearly aware of it, so he didn't call the police, and didn't care about the safety of Xiao Guanyin and Yelujun?Could it be that he has the intention of murdering now?

Yelu Hongji smiled and said: "The queen and Terry were safe and sound last night, thanks to you, I thank you in advance, and the queen and Terry will come out to thank you in person later!"

"Where, Your Majesty is too polite. Song Liao is a country of brothers, and it is right for me to save the queen and princess!" Lin Zhao said to himself while being polite. If you know that I slept with your wife last night, don't thank me , I'm afraid he will kill me immediately with a knife?

Speaking of which, being out alone with Xiao Guanyin last night didn't seem to have aroused any suspicion?You have to be careful later, especially after Xiao Guanyin arrives, you should be more careful with your expressions and movements, and don't dare to show eyebrows to others.

Moments later, Xiao Guanyin arrived with a pair of sons and daughters.Lin Zhao took a careful look. Xiao Guanyin was dressed in a fine attire, with light makeup on her face, graceful and elegant, and she was still the magnificent, noble and elegant Queen of Daliao.

However, if you observe carefully, Empress Xiao's eyes seem to be a little inflexible. After entering the tent, she has been looking forward without squinting at all.Dignity seems to be a little too much, but Lin Zhao knows in his heart that the beauty doesn't want or dare to look at him now!
"See Your Majesty!" Xiao Guanyin pulled a pair of sons and daughters to pay homage to the king.

"Queen, you don't need to be too polite. Tonight, I will invite Song Envoy and Lin Envoy to save your life and Terry's. Please express your gratitude quickly!" Yelu Hongji was straight-hearted and quickly made arrangements.

"En!" Xiao Guanyin nodded, turned around and walked to the Song envoy's seat.This time, he had to look at Lin Zhao squarely as a last resort. The moment his eyes made contact, Xiao Guanyin instinctively dodged.Fortunately, she turned her back to everyone. As for Zhang Zongyi and Zeng Gong who were on the same side, they were the kind of scholars who paid attention to etiquette. They were embarrassed to look directly at the beautiful queen, and they all lowered their heads to drink, so no one noticed.

Although there is an impulse to flirt with Xiao Guanyin, the current situation is bound to be very exciting, but it is also very dangerous.Safety first, Lin Zhao still pretended not to know, tried his best to restrain himself, but his eyes were usually calm.After all, Xiao Guanyin is a woman, she is more emotional, so it is inevitable that she will be a little turbulent...

Lin Zhao secretly prayed in his heart, beauty, you have to hold back.If people see the clues, you and I will be dead!

Xiao Guanyin's performance was not bad, she lightly opened her red lips and said: "Thanks to envoy Lin for saving my mother and daughter yesterday, I am very grateful!" Then he bowed slightly to salute.

Yelu Jun who was beside him stood up and said loudly: "Envoy Lin, you saved the orphan's mother and younger sister, and the fight yesterday will be cancelled. Let Gu toast a glass of wine to express his gratitude!"

The prince of Liao made a toast, which was considered to be enough face.While everyone envied Lin Zhao, they also praised the prince for his benevolence, filial piety and politeness. It is only right to toast and thank the benefactor who saved his mother.

Lin Zhao smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, but I'm injured, I'm afraid I won't be able to drink alcohol, so I'll replace the bar with tea!"

"Gu was negligent. Envoy Lin, please do what you want!" It was a fact that Lin Zhao was injured, but no one cared.

Yelu Tri suddenly said: "Yes, you were injured, your clothes were covered in red blood, and you fell asleep all night yesterday..."

Little princess, I love you so much!

Lin Zhao smiled inwardly. What Yelu Tri said was good. The childish words were not lies, but they were just right testimony.It was confirmed that envoy Lin fell asleep last night, so naturally he would not engage in any extraneous behavior with Empress Xiao.

In fact, no one thought about it. After all, the age gap between the two was there. Xiao Guanyin was ten years older than Lin Zhao.In the eyes of everyone, Lin Zhao was only slightly older than Yelu Jun, and vaguely inferior to Empress Xiao.What's more, Empress Xiao has always been dignified and respectful, and Song envoys dare not be so bold, so no one cares.

Yelutri also picked up a glass of wine, stood with her elder brother, and said in a childish voice, "Thank you, Ambassador Lin!" At this moment, she looked at Lin Zhao with a lot of admiration and gratitude in her eyes, and her attitude naturally became intimate. a lot.She still remembers Lin Zhao's warm and safe embrace in the dense forest, which she has never forgotten for many years...

This time he made a lot of money, Lin Zhao picked up a cup of tea with a smile and drank it down...

Xiao Guanyin seemed to be pardoned, she forced herself to restrain her agitation, moved her jade steps dignifiedly and calmly, and sat down with her children.Yan Yan smiled, his eyes and expressions were not permanent, but he didn't dare to look at Lin Zhao, especially he didn't dare to look directly.

At the banquet, everyone was in good spirits, but no one cared.Only the young Yelu Jun inadvertently noticed something strange, presumably because his mother was frightened yesterday, so he didn't take it to heart.

Lord Yelu Hongji of the Liao Dynasty said: "This rebellion caused the rebellion and caused the death of your guards. Please convey my apology to the emperor of your country. I will send envoys to Bianjing to explain and apologize to the emperor of your country. At the same time, I will send All the funeral expenses and pensions will be borne by me, Daliao."

The arrangement of the Liao Kingdom was considered to be benevolent and thoughtful, and the envoy of Song Dynasty would naturally not object.Zhang Zongyi nodded and said: "Okay, thank you Your Majesty for that."

Lin Zhao took the opportunity to say, "Your Majesty, the Jurchen Wanyan Tribe impeached Libo and the tribe's warriors all sacrificed to save me and Empress Xiao, please Your Majesty to bury them generously and reward them!"

Yelu Hongji nodded and said: "Yes! Yi Xin, I will leave this matter to you to supervise. Bury the warriors of the Wanyan tribe generously, and at the same time exempt the tribe's annual tribute, treat them kindly, and give them compensation and rewards!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

To some extent, it was a compensation for the impeachment of Libo and Wanyan Aguda, although the kind treatment of the Liao Kingdom could promote their growth to a certain extent.But there is a saying: Yan An is easy to be lazy, rich and honor will gradually become arrogant and extravagant, and at the same time, their resistance to the Liao Kingdom will also decline...not to mention the serious damage to the vitality, the loss of Aguda's Wanyan Department should not be a problem. ...

"Your Majesty, the envoy of your country committed suicide in Bianjing...?" In any case, this is the mission of this trip, and Zeng Gong felt that he had to make it clear.

Yelu Hongji said in a deep voice: "This is what Xiao Hu did when he saw the rebellion against the party. I deeply regret it and will give an explanation to your country."

It was rare for the Khitan people to be so humble and respectful to the envoys of the Song Dynasty.

Everyone stayed in Nabo for more than ten days, the condition of the wounded gradually stabilized, and the weather in Liaodong began to turn cold. The Liao Lord was about to leave camp and return to Beijing, and it was time for the Song Dynasty mission to return home.
