The Dongxia embassy has been visiting for seven days, and they will return in three days. The murderer must be caught as soon as possible.
Xia Yujin and Ye Zhao used the fastest speed to finalize the banquet list, summoned all the stewards, asked them to temporarily stop other work, and led people to finish the matter all night.
The venue for the banquet was chosen to be in the courtyard for the summer heat which was given to Ye Zhao by the emperor. Now that the spring is over, the willows by the lake are drawing twigs, and the lotus flowers in the lake are growing leaves. On the hillside, peach blossoms are planted on this end, and pear blossoms are planted on the other end. They are pink and snow-white. They gather in large groups and drop a little.
Prince Inuo originally received Xia Yujin's post, but he didn't take it seriously and threw it aside. Fortunately, the butler who delivered the letter was clever and immediately added: It was the county king and the general who invited the prince to the banquet. It happened immediately, and the prince quickly picked up the post and said happily that he would take everyone in the embassy to the banquet of the Prince of Nanping.
Xia Yujin gritted her teeth with hatred for his wolf ambition.
On the day of the banquet, under the peach and pear trees, there were many exquisite food carpets, allowing the guests to sit freely. The beautiful dancer stretched her sleeves and danced gracefully.
As the master, Xia Yujin personally accompanied Prince Inuo, holding a golden pot, poured him three cups of the strongest wine without any explanation, and smiled with emotion: "Prince Xiongzi is admirable, I will leave tomorrow, I don't know. When will we meet.
Prince Ino immediately raised his glass in return honestly and honestly: The prince's posture is even more shocking and unforgettable. Thinking of being separated by thousands of miles in the future, it will be hard to see each other again.
Xia Yujin: The prince is victorious in a hundred battles.
Ino: the hero of the county king.
While laughing and drinking, the two of them slandered each other's ancestors for eighteen generations in different languages in their hearts.
Many of Ye Zhao's old ministries came to the banquet, and they took turns to toast Prince Ino.
Prince Ino refused to come, and drank twenty or thirty cups. It was more than an hour after seeing the banquet, and Ye Zhao was nowhere to be seen: Could it be that the general is still dealing with military affairs
Xia Yujin said casually: She came early.
Prince Ino was puzzled: he came, why didn't he see him
Xia Yujin pointed at the curtain that surrounded the hill and smiled like a fox: Madam is accompanying the female family, so it is inconvenient to see the male guest.
All the guests who heard this sentence looked at each other, as if they could not understand the meaning.
Xia Yujin slowly put down the wine glass, shook her head sadly, and explained to the barbarians with the tone of speaking with a three-year-old child: We Daqin women are very reserved, and today's flower viewing banquet has many officials, wives and daughters. , It's not good to sit with men, so Madam accompanies them to another banquet on the mountain, chatting about the length of the family, and talking about costume jewelry. It's a good day.
Everyone is silent.
Xia Yujin asked in a low voice, "Could it be that you want to see a big girl and a little daughter-in-law like this, will you be a little bit of an apprentice?"
Everyone remained silent.
Xia Yujin comforted and said: Don't worry, everyone wants to see beautiful women. I invited famous flower girls and dancers on Qinhe. They are all beautiful and moving, so I can make sure that the men who are not afraid of inwardness will be happy and return home.
Prince Ino went with the flow and said with a sincere smile: How can General Ye be compared with ordinary women.
Xia Yujin agrees: My wife does have a reputation for being fierce. I heard that the prince has fought with her before. I don't know how to tell everyone what happened.
Prince Ino was brave and good at fighting, and this was the only defeat in his life, or he was defeated by a woman, which was regarded as a great shame.
He secretly clenched his fists and breathed half a beat in the wrong way. He just wanted to tear this bastard who didn't lift the pot in half. However, Xia Yujin is still showing off: Although Ah Zhao's words and deeds are not very polite, but he listens to me at home and is the most virtuous. I really can't think of what kind of fierce trick she used to shock Mobei and make all men afraid.
It's not as simple as Qiuhu staggering over, winking at Prince Ino, and being beaten by her, he knew he was afraid.
Daqin officials burst into laughter.
Xia Yujin also asked innocently: Did I say something wrong
In a moment, Prince Ino's breathing has returned to calm, and the simple smile on his face has not changed in the slightest. He spoke Daqin dialect with some accent, and said with a hearty smile: General Ye's prestige has already made people feel inferior. The fact that King Xia Jun can conquer the general is even more of a disadvantage. In the past, Dong Xia listened to the slander and favored Man Jin, and he was really ashamed. Now everyone is good friends, so don't mention it again, so as not to hurt your feelings.
Xia Yujin offered him another glass of wine without smiling.
Most of the other Daqin officials disliked the Dongxia people.
It is pleasing to the eye to see him slumped, very happy. Some people see him so forbearance and always feel calm before the storm. There are also a few soldiers who brought their young wives and daughters to the banquet. They have fought with Ye Zhao for several years and have met her. The sturdy style and the ruthless way of governing the army made her accustomed to her manhood. In just a few months, it was difficult to change her mind, and she still regarded her as an invincible general in the field of love. Then think about the burning eyes of the widows in Mobei when they saw the general, and then think about their daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law drinking and teasing her, and there is an indescribable awkwardness in their hearts, not only worried that the boss is eating the daughter-in-law's soft tofu, but also worried that the daughter-in-law wants to eat the boss The tender tofu was embarrassed by the two faces and dared not open his mouth, so he had to drink a few more glasses of suffocating wine.
The little beggar changed into the waiter's clothes, but he was pretty good-looking. He ran around in the field and used dishes to cover up his true purpose. Apart from drooling at the fish and meat on the plate from time to time, he did a decent job. After he checked everyone, he ran to the hillside and reported to the general.
The Dongxia embassy did not bring any women, and all the female relatives of Daqin were on the mountain.
Ye Zhao sat in the middle, holding a glass of mead in his hand, pretending to be in high spirits, listening to everyone chatting. When the little beggar appeared in the curtain, she knew that the search was over, she just found a reason, left the crowd, and followed to the hidden place to ask.
The little beggar shook his head in fear: the ghost didn't come.
Ye Zhaodao: There are 144 people in the Eastern Xia embassy and princes, all of them are here, how can there be none
The little beggar shrank his head: they are really ugly and tall, but they are not as scary as the ghost I saw that night, and there is a scar under the ghost's eye.
Qiuhua and Qiushui also came to report: The military advisor said that there were five people in the Dongxia embassy who were good at using left-handed or two-handed swords. They didn’t go out that night. Er and three bottles of spirits, this place is far away from Yanzi Lane, and it is unlikely to do anything.
Are you all wrong
Ye Zhao fell into deep thought.
Over there, Prince Inuo was in a bad mood, drank too much alcohol, and was pretending to be crazy with wine, grabbing Xia Yujin's waist and saying: "The king of Xia Jun is upright, which is really admirable. I'm leaving tomorrow, and I miss you.
Xia Yujin patted his paw and said: Be willing to be a man.
Prince Ino shook his head and sighed with the smell of alcohol: Beauty, drink two more glasses
Xia Yujin became angry: Get out
Prince Inuo is unyielding: you must come to Dongxia as a guest, stay in my tent, please drink the best goat milk wine, eat the best meat, and the two of them will talk at night by candlelight for three days and three nights. .
Xia Yujin was touched several times and felt bad.
He was molested by Hai Ke before, but he has been ridiculed to this day. Now, under the watchful eyes of the public, he has been teasing the prince with broken sleeves from the barbarians. He has to be mocked for so many years.
Qiuhu pouted and said bluntly: Prince, it's not good for you to be like this. The king of the county is the person on the top of the general's heart.
The general's beauty, Prince Ino, was still intoxicated.
Xia Yujin winked furiously.
Qiuhuhu's brain is not good, he can't understand Xia Yujin's eyes, he hesitates to ask: yes or no
Xia Yujin growled angrily: Of course not
Qiuhu stutters even more: what is that
Xia Yujin was speechless.
Prince Ino whispered in his ear: As long as it's a beauty, it's fine.
Xia Yujin was so frightened that he was helpless, but fortunately, other people found the abnormality here and came to rescue him.
Prince Ino didn't wait for everyone to ask questions, he immediately fell on the table and fell asleep, and the captain of the guard quickly brought someone to help him to rest.
His chief bodyguard and the interpreter stepped forward, embarrassed to explain: the prince's wine is not good, I am afraid that I have misunderstood the identity of the king of the county, and the king of the king has a lot of people, so don't care about the drunkard.
Some of the Dongxia people in the crowd who knew the Daqin dialect exclaimed: There are too many beauties, and even the prince has some dazzling eyes.
Xia Yujin walked away in a jeering voice.
When the servants and servants saw that the master was angry, and they did not order them to do things, they did not dare to serve the prince of Dongxia, so as not to touch the bad.
After there was no one around, Prince Ino quickly opened his eyes and lost his drunken state. He asked the captain of the bodyguard in Dongxia language: Did you just get in touch with the contact person
The captain of the guard nodded: Yes, the matter will be concluded before the departure tomorrow.
Prince Ino raised his head and looked at the mountain top not far away. In the curtain of flowers, the laughter of the woman floated far away. He took a deep breath, but could not relieve his anger.
Da Qin, Emperor, Ye Zhao, Xia Yujin
Every bit of humiliation he suffered will be paid back a hundredfold and a thousandfold in the near future.
No one is exception.
