Hearing that Xiaozhong went out, the Liao envoy nodded, and the big man followed.

The Liao envoy raised his glass to look left and right, and said with a smile: "I wanted to compete here, but I was afraid that the Song people would not be used to seeing blood, so it was just outside, let's listen to the sound." ”

He said it lightly, and the messengers nodded slightly, and then raised their glasses and drank together.

The Liao envoy put down his wine glass and sighed with satisfaction: "Is this a soul that is not willing to give up?" ”

Shen An was looking at a piece of buckle meat on the table, and when he heard this, he raised his head and said, "No, I'm just thinking about how much weight this piece of meat will gain if I eat it." ”

The crowd couldn't help but laugh.

Shen An came up with stir-fried vegetables, and now stir-fried vegetables are not only carried forward in the Great Song Dynasty, but also imitators have appeared in the Liao Kingdom and Western Xia, but their level is a little difficult to explain.

"The meat is fat but not greasy, and it is delicious."

Shen An ate a piece, then raised his glass and drank.

When the Liao envoy heard that there was no movement outside, he said, "It's time to start, right?" ”

Shen An smiled and asked, "Have you ever heard of Wen Jiu slashing Huaxiong?" ”

The Liao envoys were at a loss, and the envoys shook their heads, even the officials of the Great Song Dynasty had not heard of them.

Shen An just smiled......

Choke!

Almost at the same time, there was a sound of swords being drawn outside, and everyone looked outside, even holding their breath.

How long will this battle last?

"Hah!"

A loud shout came first, but it was the voice of the big man.

The Liao envoy was smiling, "A certain bet...... Ten breaths! ”

Shen An was also smiling: "How about the five breaths?" ”

The Liao envoy asked, "Bet! ”

Shen An smiled: "It's too late......"

The Liao envoy sneered, and all the envoys were laughing.

It's too late to say what you're thinking.

Clang!

The first sound came from outside, and it was a long knife block.

Laugh at......

This voice followed, and most of the envoys were puzzled, but the Liao envoys and the Western Xia envoys were laughing.

"Where is this cut? The sound of blood rushing was so loud. ”

The Liao envoy's tone was very relaxed.

Burst!

The sound of a human being falling to the ground was heard, followed by screams.

"Murder!"

A cold wind was blowing, and Shen An smelled blood.

It stinks!

The long knife was unsheathed, and then footsteps approached.

Everyone stared at the door, but the Liao envoy's face changed.

The footsteps were soft, but the footsteps of the big man were heavy.

Don't......

Could it be someone else?

The footsteps approached, and then I heard that Xiao Chong was still hunched over. He looked up closely, still looking like a blank man.

"Lang Jun, that person is dead."

's very wooden tone, coupled with his wooden expression, is shocking.

Liao made Huo Ran get up, "Who did it?" ”

He didn't think that Wen Xiaozhong could kill the warriors of Da Liao, so he said angrily: "Someone! ”

Two Liao people rushed in outside, their faces were pale, and they couldn't help but look at Wen Xiaozhong after coming in.

"Who killed him?"

The Liao envoy asked in desperation, because he saw something wrong.

Two Liao people pointed at Wen Xiaozhong, and one of them whispered, "It's him." ”

Another said, "It's just a ...... cut."

The Liao envoy was shocked, and when he looked over, Shen An picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "The wine is still warm." ”

This is the warm wine of the Northern Song Dynasty!

Wen Xiaozhong took the wine glass and drank it, and then Mu Ran glanced at everyone.

This glance was very ordinary, but the envoys couldn't help but lean back, as if Wen Xiaozhong would rush to their side in the next moment and kill themselves with a knife.

"Lang Jun, the villain retires."

As Shen An nodded, Wen Xiaozhong retreated, and everyone was in an uproar.

"This is the Shen family's cook?"

"That's right." Shen An swore that "he would go to the kitchen every day to help." ”

Wen Xiaozhong likes the kitchen, and thinks that where there is a kitchen, there is a home.

Everyone couldn't help but marvel, feeling that this Shen family was really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger.

"There are still a few uncompetitive subordinates in a certain family, those who drive the car can go to Taixue to teach, and the cook can make people forget the ......vulgar at first sight."

Shen An raised his glass and said, "This cup ...... For the sake of the gore just now. ”

The Liao envoy's complexion finally changed, he squeezed the silver cup in his hand hard, and sneered: "That's just a slave who led a horse......"

"Slaves are human beings, too."

Shen An said very seriously: "In the Great Song Dynasty, the master is not allowed to easily punish the slave, kill the subordinate or the slave, even if you are the slaughterer, you still cannot be exempted...... Any idea what this is? ”

Everyone shook their heads, and the Liao envoy said contemptuously: "Weakness and incompetence will make the slave turn over." ”

Everyone laughed.

Shen An stood up and said, "It's because of kindness. In the eyes of the Great Song people, their compatriots are worth cherishing. The Great Song Dynasty does not support the slavery system, and the Great Song Dynasty hopes that every common person will have their own independent personality, even if the other party is a Zaifu, they can neither be humble nor arrogant......"

Everyone smiled, but only the Liao envoy still sneered.

Shen An glanced at him with contempt in his eyes: "In the Great Song Dynasty, even if you are down, you can still carry your sister from Xiongzhou to Bianliang." We are not driven away, we can live with our hands. In the Great Song Dynasty, as long as you have the ability, you can live a good life, and the greater your ability, the better you will live......"

He continued: "It doesn't depend on your backstage and origins...... We all know that some people crawl out of their mother's womb with a golden key in their mouths, so they are rich, but once they are down, it is not uncommon for their families to become slaves. But in the Great Song Dynasty, none of this will happen. ”

There was more envy in the eyes of those envoys, and they hated to settle down in the Great Song Dynasty when they saw that look.

At this time, the Great Song Dynasty had a prosperous culture and a developed economy, which could be called the first in the world.

If the martial arts keep up, this is the empire that rules the world, and no one can beat it.

Shen An smiled and said, "This is the Great Song, it is gentle and elegant, and tolerant. It welcomes friends from all over the world...... Friends come with good wine, enemies come...... There are knives and guns. ”

He bowed slightly, then slowly walked out.

It wasn't until he disappeared outside the door that the messengers came to their senses.

Someone sighed, "Yes! You look at Bianliang, there are people from all over the place, the Great Song Dynasty does not discriminate against them, as long as you follow the rules, as long as you meet the rules, you can live in Bianliang......"

"In Bianliang, every morning when there is a Toutuo time, you can get up and buy hot water and toiletries, and then breakfast is delivered to your door...... Without leaving home, you can enjoy a whole day at home, this big song! It's really enviable. ”

"Also, if you go to the Royal Street, there are crowds of people everywhere, and goods from various countries are sold on both sides, and you can buy everything you want."

"That Daxiangguo Temple is prosperous, there are all kinds of juggling tricks outside, and there are many stalls inside, and there are everything."

"There are also docks, and when those ships dock, countless goods are brought up for the use of the Bianliang people."

"This Great Song ...... It's heaven ......."

Yes, Shen An also thinks so.

"Don't hunch over, or you won't find a daughter-in-law in the future."

Shen An was about to go home, Wen Xiaozhong rode a horse and followed the side, staring around vigilantly.

He said: "Lang Jun, the villain is used to it, so that others will not be vigilant." ”

"But the Shen family doesn't need you to assassinate anyone, even if you want to assassinate you...... You can also hold your head high. ”

There is a mountain army, and Shen An does not think that Bianliang has a mansion that he cannot break.

If he wants, he can set the Imperial City on fire.

Wen Xiaozhong looked ahead a little blankly, it was the first day of the new year, and there were many more people on the street.

These people were dressed in new clothes, smiling and wandering around, greeting acquaintances and standing together talking about their current situation. Or find a place to have a drink......

The children were playing in the streets, some were running around, and the adults were not angry when they were bumped into, but just smiled and told them to be careful.

That's life, right?

Wen Xiaozhong was a little dazed in his heart, "Lang Jun, this Da Song ...... Is it worth it? ”

Shen An has done a lot for this Great Song Dynasty, regardless of civil and military, the Shenwei Crossbow and Jin Feidan have benefited countless people.

"It's worth it."

Shen An smiled and said: "Even though this Great Song Dynasty is not good in every way, but looking at these prosperity and tolerance, don't you think you should protect all this in front of you?" ”

Wen Xiaozhong didn't know, he looked at these prosperity and felt a little unreal.

The feast ended hastily, and the people in the ceremonial room hurried to report to all places.

There is no big court meeting today, but the Zai Fu made a hot pot dinner in the political hall, which can be regarded as a treat for themselves, and they will prepare to enlarge the holiday later.

Han Qi liked this kind of lively scene the most, he raised his wine glass to preside over the work, and in a few clicks, Ouyang Xiu's poems were flourished, and he composed five poems in a row.

"This kind of wine, the old man could drink ten bowls back then!"

Ouyang Xiu's face was red and his ears were red, and he was shouting.

Zeng Gongliang took the wine glass and drank it all, and praised: "Slightly sweet, not spicy, it is very comfortable to drink." ”

Han Qi raised his glass and said: "Jiayou has been in the past eight years, this year, the Liao people will still not invade, the Western Xia people will be dormant, the Jiaozhi people have been beaten honestly, the Great Song Dynasty has never been so peaceful, gentlemen, take a drink for this." ”

The three of them raised their glasses and drank together.

"Xianggong."

At this time, someone outside called the door, and Han Qi frowned and said, "Is there anything else going on in the first year of junior high school?" In. ”

The door was pushed open, and an official came in and said, "I've seen the three ministers, and the news that I just arrived, the banquet is over." ”

Han Qi nodded and said, "That's good, tomorrow's bow and arrow competition...... This is a provocation by the Liao people, so I won't do it. ”

According to tradition, tomorrow should be the day when the envoys of the Great Song Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom will test their bows and arrows, but Zhao Zhen is bedridden, and Han Qi has no heart to perfunctory the Liao people, so he simply doesn't do it.

The person who came said: "The Liao envoy has provoked before. He called his entourage to challenge, saying that it was life and death......"

it!

Han Qi frowned and said, "How did Shen An refuse?" ”

In his eyes, Shen An, who was in a hurry, could only refuse politely.

The person who came looked up, with admiration in his eyes, "Shen Zhizhao did not refuse, and called his entourage to fight......"

"Reckless!"

Han Qi frowned and said, "There is no precedent for such a thing, isn't it good for him to directly refuse it?" ”

The person who came smiled and said: "Shen Zhizhao's entourage just finished off the warriors of the Liao people with just one sword." ”

it!

Ouyang Xiu was drunk, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but shout: "Just a knife? ”

The person nodded and said, "It's just a knife." ”

Ouyang Xiu raised his glass and drank bitterly, shouting: "Happy, happy!" The old man has another song......"

Han Qi didn't have time to listen to his words, and asked, "Shen Anke humiliated the Liao people?" ”

Zeng Gongliang said: "At this time, it is best to calm down. ”

In the days when Zhao Zhen fell, it was best not to cause trouble.

There was more light in the eyes of the people who came, and the pride even felt by the drunken Ouyang Xiu: "The edict did not humiliate the Liao envoy, but just said something......"
