Chapter 1766: The Return Trip
Originally, there were nine young people, and there were some other officials who really admired Song Chongjin, but they were also worried that he would drink too much and make a fool of himself today, and he would lose face in Da Chu, and when they saw Bayar's ill intentions, they all surrounded him quite tacitly.
In a few words, those people were divided, and one person couldn't bear it, so a few people got together to deal with a man on the other side of the grassland.
For a while, several people around Bayar were taken away, and I don't know if it was a coincidence, but they were all quite good drinkers.
Isn't that nonsense? At that time, when Song Chongjin asked the men on the grassland to try the fine wine of the Great Chu Kingdom, those few who loved wine as much as their lives were naturally looked at by the officials of Great Chu.
Therefore, they did not pull people aside casually, but specially selected those who were familiar.
Prince Bayar didn't know, it was just a coincidence, although he was not happy in his heart, but he also knew that if he really dared to make trouble on such an occasion today, even his father and his mother probably couldn't protect him.
had no choice but to snort angrily and with others, they took turns pouring wine to Song Chongjin.
Song Chongjin's face did not change his color and his heart did not beat, let these people, round after round of toasts, he drank it dry in one gulp unhurriedly, and then returned a toast.
I also pick a few dishes to fill my stomach.
After a few rounds, this drink was provided by Da Chu, which was already extremely strong, and those grassland men were already hungry, but today I heard that there is no limit, and they can drink it openly, where can they resist it.
Not only do you drink refreshingly when you toast, but when you don't toast, you also secretly pour yourself a few sips.
The result was that Song Chongjin was still clear-eyed and sat steadily, but those who took turns to toast were all red-faced, their eyes were scattered, and their steps floated.
Bayar was anxious, his own alcohol consumption was okay, and he was also quite famous in the grassland royal capital, I thought that it would be safe to deal with Song Chongjin and make him ugly, but I didn't expect that Song Chongjin's alcohol consumption was unfathomable.
He himself already felt a little tall, a little top-heavy, but he just endured it, but seeing that Song Chongjin didn't have anything at all, his face didn't change a bit.
Unwillingly, he wanted to greet his subordinates and continue to toast, but when he turned around, there were still people behind him, most of them were already drunk, and those who wanted to make trouble were directly dragged out.
Those who didn't make trouble had already shrunk in the corner, waiting for the banquet to be picked up by their own people after the banquet was over.
The few remaining fruits have straight eyes and big tongues, and they can't feed their mouths with wine glasses.
Bayar wanted to stand up, but as soon as he moved, he spun around, and everything was shaking, and one of them didn't stand firmly, and he fell to the ground as soon as he farted, and then he couldn't get up.
The others only saw Prince Bayar, stood up, and staggered to the ground, and then the person was crooked, and he was drunk to death.
The guards breathed a sigh of relief, it was okay to be drunk to death, but they were afraid that if they were drunk and make trouble, that would be the trouble.
hurriedly snatched out a few people, and snatched Prince Bayar aside with his hands and feet, for fear that the people on Da Chu's side would do something to him.
Li Jiushao watched Song Chongjin drink all the men on the grassland with his own strength, and he was also worried about him, so he hurried over, "Lord Song, are you okay?" β
After asking, Song Chongjin was very sober, and he was still eating peanuts slowly, and suddenly swallowed the remaining words of concern.
Song Chongjin glanced at Li Jiushao and nodded: "You also sit down and eat something to suppress." β
Li Jiushao pulled a strong man from the grassland before, and after drinking for half a day, he didn't eat in his stomach, and he was already uncomfortable.
After hearing Song Chongjin's words, he also sat down and picked up the hot dishes and ate them.
There are still a few sober people on the grassland, and when they see this scene, they don't dare to come over, they don't have much alcohol, don't they go up to give people heads?
Therefore, just play dead and hide aside.
At this moment, it is almost the end, Qin Bohan and Batu naturally keep calm, just drink, and just dip their glasses.
Seeing this, especially Batu, he only felt ashamed and couldn't stay any longer.
took the initiative to say that he knew that it was almost the New Year of Da Chu, so he would not delay the officials of Da Chu to go back for the New Year.
Qin Bohan smiled, anyway, the benefit of Dachu was obtained, and the face, Song Chongjin also earned it back, so he was naturally happy and generous, and he didn't say much, so he nodded and agreed.
The envoys of both sides spoke, and naturally, soon the guards escorted the drunk and undrunk officials back together.
The rest of the mess will naturally be cleaned up by someone.
Everyone said goodbye amicably, and said a few more words before parting ways.
Not to mention the grassland, Da Chu is like an arrow.
Especially the officials in the capital, what they are thinking about now is how to return to Chicheng County to have a good rest, and then slowly return to the capital.
Anyway, this credit is decided, and if you are in a hurry to go back, you won't be able to catch up with the New Year, so instead of tossing on the road, it is better to stay in Chicheng County, have a good New Year, and talk about it after the New Year.
There are even those who have some brains, who have already thought that after the beginning of the year, they are afraid that as soon as the news of the opening of the trade road spreads, those merchants will flock to it.
When the time comes, all kinds of good things in the north and south of the sky in Chicheng County can make people dazzled.
Especially here in Chicheng County, fur, spices and gems from the Western Regions are much cheaper than in the capital.
Choose a few things here to go back, not to mention making a profit, it is to give it away, which not only saves face but also saves money.
Therefore, after returning to the camp, General Chen of the camp said that he wanted to celebrate, but he was politely declined.
No matter how good this barracks is, it's not as convenient as Chicheng County, it's really boring and crooked.
Therefore, they all asked to return to Chicheng County as soon as possible.
Qin Bohan couldn't see the thoughts of these people, but he also felt inconvenient to stay in the barracks, so he readily agreed.
The group of people had almost packed their luggage before, and now they are packing up some bits and pieces for daily use, and it is simple.
Only one night passed, and the next day, I was ready to go back to the city.
Unlike when he came, although this side is still quite peaceful now, General Chen is a cautious person and does not dare to take risks, especially at this time, if something happens to the negotiation mission, I am afraid that everyone will have to take off their skin.
He insisted on sending a capable team to escort the negotiation delegation back to Akagi Prefecture.
Qin Bohan couldn't shirk it, so he could only agree.
The group set off from the barracks, because it was cold, although there was no snow, but there was no one on the road.
However, after traveling a hundred miles, a scout issued a warning, saying that there were unknown people and horses ahead, and there were quite a few of them, and they galloped all the way.
The captain who escorted Qin Bohan and their team was very calm, first signaling the team to stop, then letting his subordinates make a vigilant gesture, and then signaling the scouts to continue to investigate the situation and report back at any time.
After a while, I saw a scout roll down the hill with a rolling belt, all the way to the captain, and then shouted, "Yes, it's the Praetorian Guardβ"
