The willow tops on the moon, people about after dusk.

Xia Hongsheng looked up at the bright moon in mid-air, and said a word silently in his heart.

The poem is such a verse, but the difference is that it is not the bustling and lively night of the Lantern Festival, nor does it have a tender atmosphere. The lovers are in love under the shadow of the moonlight and willows, and the scene of love words is not there, and the hazy and quiet, graceful and soft artistic conception is not there.

The month is the same month. But the one who is about after twilight is not the man of the words.

Li Feng eavesdropped on the plot to send the Tang envoy, and Xia Hongsheng learned that Inugami Mita would come to the door tonight to give gifts. At this moment, he was waiting under the willow tree in the courtyard, where there was a stone bench and table, on which tea was placed.

It has been three days since Xia Hongsheng first met those Tang envoys.

Three days should be enough for you to find out my son's preferences, right? Xia Hongsheng thought in his heart, I don't know if it will be more or less compared with the previous Xue Yantuo and Turkic people.

It was already dark, but it wasn't curfew yet.

A few carriages were moving slowly, so the noise was very slight. When it stops, it's also quiet.

A few people got out of the carriage, and walked quickly to the door of the Xia Mansion.

There were a few knocks on the empty and silent street, and then there was a squeak, and the people of the Xia Mansion were opened.

"In the lower Wa country, the Tang envoy dog was sent to Santian to come to meet Xiahou, and he also hoped to pass it on, so he said that he came to make amends." Inougami Mita also respectfully saluted the family who opened the door, and then said.

"Don't dare!" The family Ding turned sideways to avoid the salute of Inougami Mita, and then said: "My marquis has a saying, the envoys of the Japanese Kingdom will come to visit in the past few days, so that the little ones pay attention to it, if they come, they will bring it in, and there is no need to pass it on." Several, please. ”

Inugami Mita was stunned for a moment, and then as if he understood something, he nodded, turned around and waved his hand, only to see a few more people jumping out of the carriages behind, carrying down a few boxes from the carriage, carrying them over, and coming behind Inugami Mitaku.

After everyone carried the box and followed the dog to Santian into the Xia Mansion, their own family took them to Xia Hongsheng's place.

The family who opened the door just now, after closing the door, looked at the few boxes that were rushing away, sighed, and said: "I heard that the prince said that this country is poor and full of wild people, but I didn't expect that they brought more gifts than Naxue Yantuo and the Turks. Fortunately, our son is a decent person, and tomorrow I am afraid that these boxes will be carried into the palace again. ”

"Isn't it!" Another listener nodded and said. After a pause, he said: "It's a pity to think about it, such a few boxes, I'm afraid they are worth at least tens of thousands, right?" These people are all here to curry favor with the son, but in the end, they were all taken advantage of by the palace. ”

"Shh The man who opened the door blew at him: "Silence! How to do it, you have your own plans for your son. We are subordinates, but we don't see what we do. Don't dare to discuss it behind your back, be careful of being taken away. This is all over the world, but you can't find a master like Childe anymore. ”

Neither of them spoke again, and sat back in the hut by the gate. This is unique to the Xia Mansion and is specially used by the subordinates who are on duty to watch the doorman. The housekeepers on the side had to stand behind the gate, and Xia Hongsheng sympathized with them, so he made a small guard room.

Inougami Mita was taken out of the hospital by the family, and the family said goodbye and left. Inougami Mita motioned to the people behind him, told them to stop outside the courtyard and wait, and then walked into the courtyard himself.

Under the moonlight, the courtyard is like a piece of jade falling on the pavilions, and there is no need for a palm lamp. By the moonlight, Inugami Mita saw Xia Hongsheng sitting at the stone table silently raising a glass and taking a sip of tea.

Xia Hongsheng put down the cup, turned his head to look at Inugami Mita, and said with a smile: "Inu's master, I haven't seen you for a few days, don't come unharmed?" ”

"I met Xiahou below, and I came here for the rude behavior of the deputy envoy a few days ago, and apologized to Xiahou." Inougami Mita bowed to Xia Hongsheng and said: "The deputy envoy pharmacist Hui Ri is the one who will inherit the position of the next generation of the head of the family among the best friends, if it were not for his father and the next friend of life and death, I will definitely bring his head to see him today, in order to appease the thunderous wrath of His Majesty the Tang Emperor." He has never seen the world, he is young and impulsive, and he asks Xiahou to be kind, don't blame more! ”

Xia Hongsheng smiled: "Oh? But I don't know how the dog master will make amends? Just by saying this? ”

Inougami Mita was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Xia Hongsheng to speak so directly, so he hurriedly said: "Prepare a little bow below, and please ask Xiahou to smile!" ”

After that, Inugami Mita waved outward, and the people outside immediately rushed in, carried a mouthful of boxes in, and placed them in front of Xia Hongsheng, Xia Hongsheng secretly counted, there were as many as ten boxes!

Xia Hongsheng didn't speak, just paced over with his hands behind his back, looking down at the boxes back and forth.

Inougami Mita immediately understood what he meant, and said to the people who were carrying the box: "Open the box and show it to Xiahou!" ”

The men immediately opened the ten boxes one by one, and saw that each wooden box was full of jewels, each of which seemed to be of great value.

"Xiahou, please look here!" Inugami Mita said to Xia Hongsheng again,

When Xia Hongsheng heard this, he looked over and saw two slaves carrying something and cautiously walked over. Xia Hongsheng took advantage of the moonlight to stare at it, and it was actually a piece of coral half a person high and two people wide!

Such a large piece of coral may not be anything in the afterlife, but in this era, it is a priceless treasure.

"Is Xiahou still satisfied?" Seeing Xia Hongsheng's greedy look with shining, as if there was no one else in his eyes at this moment, only these jewels, Inugami Mita asked tentatively.

Xia Hongsheng suddenly took a breath, turned around sharply, and laughed at the dog Mitaku: "Hahaha, your envoy is really outspoken!" Ben Hou said that he admired the things that Ono girls did for their exchanges between the Tang Dynasty and the Wa Kingdom when they were in the former Sui Dynasty. Therefore, he is also very willing to promote the rapprochement between the two countries. His Excellency the Deputy Envoy is young and is going to another country for the first time, and this impulsive move is understandable. Ben Hou didn't take it to heart in the first place. However, you can't let him be so arrogant in the future! Fortunately, Ben Hou didn't misread His Excellency Inu, so he didn't report to His Majesty in the past few days. Hehe, Ben Hou really didn't see the wrong person! Come, come, Your Excellency, please sit down, and this Hou will talk to Your Excellency, lest your envoy not know how to deal with it after seeing Your Majesty. ”

Seeing this situation, Inugami Mita was also full of smiles, and said to Xia Hongsheng: "Master Hou's mind and bearing are really extraordinary, and I admire him very much!" ”

Xia Hongsheng laughed, that face was completely an extremely greedy traitor. (To be continued.) )
