The first-class concubine of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 273 Showdown
Roasted whole lamb with a layer of oil, people can't help but whet their appetite after looking at it.

Cao Jue was not too polite. After Daniel put the roasted whole lamb on the table, he took out a dagger and cut a piece for himself. He just took a bite and was shocked by the deliciousness of the roasted whole lamb when he suddenly found that everyone was looking at him. own.

This confused Cao Jue.

Everyone's eyes are so strange, what do they want?
Suddenly, Cao Jue seemed to understand something.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't eat enough mutton skewers, and I forgot the etiquette when I saw delicious food..." After Cao Jue said this, he immediately said to King Jin: "Please, my lord."

King Jin was not in a hurry to eat, and he didn't look at Cao Jue because Cao Jue forgot the etiquette. Originally, everyone had a meal together, and it was good to be happy. There were so many rules there. The whole sheep is delicious or not.

Seeing the delicious food eaten by others gives you an appetite.

"Cao Concubine, is it delicious?" Jin Wang didn't pay attention to Cao Jue's etiquette, he was most concerned about whether it was delicious or not.

In fact, to be honest, it's not that King Jin has never eaten roasted whole lamb, but he found that the roasted whole lamb at Liu Wei's family tonight is very different. How should I put it, it is delicious and full of appetite.

Cao Jue didn't know how to answer for a moment. He just took a bite, but he couldn't help but answer, so he took another bite. The mutton was chewing in his mouth. The numbness lingers for a long time.

"Delicious, so delicious."

Cao Jue couldn't help but praised it, and then continued to eat. When the others heard Cao Jue's praise, they knew that the roasted whole lamb must be delicious, so they stopped being polite and raised their knives to pull it up.

Laughter, the smell of meat, beer into the belly, sweeping away the summer heat.

Liu Wei is very happy. In his previous life, he liked to go to food stalls and barbecue with his friends in summer, but what he liked was not the deliciousness of barbecue, but the refreshing feeling of drinking and chatting with friends.

What could be better than talking with friends?
Ended.

Time is slow, it is getting late.

King Jin, Cao Jue and others left one after another, and the originally lively courtyard suddenly fell silent. Lamb bones were thrown everywhere, and several jars of beer were left undrinkable.

The courtyard was in a mess, with flies flying faintly.

Liu Wei looked up at the night sky, there is a moon tonight.

Princess Ruyi drank a few glasses of beer and she was a bit too strong. She is a clean woman, so even though it was getting late, she still insisted on asking the servants to clean up these things before going to rest.

The wind brought coolness, Liu Wei suddenly smiled wryly, for some reason, he always felt lonely when the prosperity was over.

Loneliness is like water.

After going to the latrine a few times, Liu Wei felt that most of his drunkenness had gone, so Princess Ruyi helped him back to the house.

"I really don't understand what you think, making such a mess at home."

Liu Wei smiled, and hugged Princess Ruyi into her arms: "Don't the princess think this is very lively? It's so boring all day long."

"It's lively, but I always feel that there is something missing."

What is the shortcoming?Princess Ruyi couldn't tell either.

Liu Wei also felt that there was something missing, it seemed that she lacked a certain mood.
-
In the capital, the news about the Liao people defeating the three major chess courts in the capital is still spreading, and it is spreading faster and faster.

The Liao people were even more arrogant, and even said that people from the Song Dynasty were vulnerable at Go.

And just when the Liao people were arrogant, Liu Wei took Zhuge Pi into the post house.

Entering the post house, what Liu Wei saw first was not Li Yin, but Lu Xue, who had defeated many great Song players.

She is a woman, a woman with a willow waist and a good body. Her appearance is very gorgeous, and occasionally she gives people an indescribable coldness.

Liu Wei smiled, pointed to the chair opposite, and said with a smile: "I never thought that Miss Lu Xue, who defeated many national Go players in Song Dynasty, is so beautiful."

Hearing Liu Wei's praise, Lu Xue frowned slightly, and then her cheeks turned red.

She didn't have a good impression of Liu Wei, and she didn't find Liu Wei attractive at first sight, but she was praised by a man for being beautiful, and this man was the most famous talent in Song Dynasty, how could she not blush ?

But she only blushed for a moment.

"Master Liu is here to say more than these things, right?"

Liu Wei smiled slightly: "Of course not, Miss Lu Xue made my Da Song very embarrassed, and this official is here to save face."

"Oh? Save face? I don't know how Master Liu wants to find it?"

"Naturally defeating you in the way of Go."

Lu Xue was startled, and looked at Liu Wei: "Are you, my lord?"

Liu Wei nodded: "Why, I don't look like someone who can play chess?"

Lu Xue frowned slightly, and instead of answering Liu Wei's question, she nodded, "Okay, I, Lu Xue, will accompany you anytime."

After the two of them said this, Li Yin was called by Liu Wei.

Originally, the two were equal in status, but Liu Wei wanted to appear to be superior to others.

"I heard that Mr. Li likes to drink alcohol. I ordered someone to bring you a few jars. Please don't mind Mr. Li."

Liu Wei smiled and slapped his hands, and then a guard brought a few jugs of beer. When Li Yin and Lu Xue saw the jugs of beer, their faces immediately turned ugly. They guessed really well. The so-called beer, but It was Liu Wei who set up a game to trap them.

It stands to reason that Li Yin should be very angry in this situation, but he smiled indifferently: "Since it is the wine given by Master Liu, then accept it. I just don't know why Master Liu came here today?"

"Your country's mission has been in Bianjing for many days. It's time to take you to meet me on a pilgrimage, isn't it?"

Li Yin nodded: "I thought your country forgot that there are us in this posthouse."

"How can this happen? It's just that the court affairs are busy these few days, and I can't spare time for the emperor. Now that there is a world, why don't I ask this official to invite Master Li right away?"

After saying this, Liu Wei asked again: "How about going now?"

Li Yin thought for a while, but didn't object.

After leaving the post house, Liu Wei and Li Yin got into the carriage and rushed to the palace.

Today's morning court is over, but because Liu Wei wants to bring Li Yin, there are still many officials left in the hall.

After Li Yin saluted Zhao Kuangyin in the main hall, he explained the purpose of the Liao Emperor sending him here. Of course, these are all high-sounding purposes, such as promoting the friendship between the two countries, and the people living and working in peace and contentment, etc.

Zhao Kuangyin nodded after listening, but did not express any opinions on these matters, but suddenly asked: "Master Li should be Han, why did he go to Liao to become an official?"

Li Yin didn't understand why Zhao Kuangyin asked this question, but he still answered: "A few years ago, the envoy was also from the Song Dynasty, but he failed in several imperial examinations. I feel that the Song court was so stupid that it couldn't recognize talents. Then I went to the Liao Kingdom. The emperor of the Liao Kingdom knew people and was good at appointment. When I first went there, I was not granted an official position and became the teacher of the current emperor. I would like to ask the Song Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom, should I choose the Song Dynasty or the Liao Dynasty? What about Liao?"

What Li Yin said shocked the entire court.

Originally, Zhao Kuangyin wanted to use this topic to embarrass Li Yin. As a Song native, he assisted the Liao Emperor. Such a person was a traitor in their eyes, but he never thought that Li Yin would say such a thing.

After he said these words, it was tantamount to mocking Zhao Kuangyin's ignorance of people and his ignorance of using talents. How can a person who doesn't know how to make good use of talents be called a good emperor?

Zhao Kuangyin wanted to refute, but he didn't know how to refute for a while. There is an old saying that a good bird chooses a tree to live in, and a good minister chooses a master to do things. Although it is not like the Warring States period, scholars in the world have no nationalities, but if it is true, It is similar to the Warring States Period.

Li Yin was left out in the Song Dynasty, so why would it be unreasonable to go to the Liao Kingdom?
Seeing that Zhao Kuangyin was speechless, Li Yin smiled secretly. With just a few words, he wanted to make the emperor of the Song Dynasty unable to step down, and he wanted to show the power of Liao.

But when Li Yin was so complacent, Liu Wei next to him suddenly smiled: "It turns out that the people I don't like in Song Dynasty are so popular in Liao Kingdom, so it's not difficult to see how much Liao Kingdom is. What a country that lacks talents. If Master Li is like this, when you go back, I will load all the gangsters and scoundrels on the streets of my Song Dynasty into your car? Maybe you went to Liao Kingdom, can you It may not necessarily make your Daliao Emperor so excited that you can't sleep for a few days."

Liu Wei returned indifferently, but hearing everyone's ears, it was so relieved, Zhao Kuangyin was so excited that he almost stood up from his chair, so happy, it was so happy to hear.

When Liu Wei said this, other ministers in the court also followed suit: "It turns out that Liao is such a country."

"Hey, in a place where wisdom is not enlightened, people who can read a few words will become emperors when they go there?"

"It's ridiculous, it's really ridiculous, it makes me feel ashamed for them after listening to it..."

The officials of the Song Dynasty were sometimes very venomous, and now they finally seized an opportunity, and they didn't hate Li Yin.

And Li Yin, who was still smug just now, suddenly became a little angry. He didn't expect that Liu Wei's eloquence would be so embarrassing as he said.

Great humiliation, great shame and great humiliation.

Li Yin gritted his teeth in hatred, but soon showed a slight smile: "It turns out that your country thinks so, but it's a pity that the disciple trained by me, a useless person, easily defeated your country's national champion. Tsk tsk..."

Li Yin didn't say a lot of things, but it was clear at a glance that his people defeated all the national players of Song Dynasty, so how could he be as unbearable as Liu Wei said? In the end, Song Dynasty didn't know talents.

Liu Wei shrugged: "How are the chess players in your country so good? I'm not proficient in Go, but I can still beat her. I wonder if Lord Li believes it or not?"
