Chapter 623: Touching the tiger's butt

Chen Ao's reputation spread like wildfire. At this time, some people have forgotten the fact that Longzhou has turned over the table; what is the matter of turning over the table? Longzhou's guards are lucky and have not touched the scales of this evil star yet. Let's see what the golden man will end up? More than 800 people have all cut off. It is said that there are still corpses rushing downstream in the river outside the city, and the golden camp has turned into ashes.

In the eyes of the Xixia people, the Jin people are already synonymous with strength. Now, no matter how powerful they are, just talking about the word "ruthlessness", no one can compare to the Penglai Prince; overnight, killing people in the wild, and the next day, it was like nothing happened; it is said that in the afternoon, they still went to the market to hang out with laughter, and the people in the market were frightened, and they were all scared. Chen Ao walked to a sheep seller to inquire. The merchant's knees softened, and he knelt on the ground, crying and talking about small business transactions, and was willing to accept it.

The Shenxiaxing curled his lips and threw away Zhang Dasong's money and asked someone to take the sheep. He turned around and left, leaving only a businessman whose pants were wet. He has not yet recovered.

On the Honglu Temple, the officials who were on duty were also frightened. They used to serve this person but didn't think anything. They just felt that this prince from the Song Dynasty was always funny and smiled like a spring breeze. However, at this time, although it was still funny and still like a spring breeze, it made people dare not be negligent.

That night, Chen Ao slaughtered a sheep to reward the guards and invited Yelu Yinde to eat. Li Ganshun's edict had been heard, and the princess fell on Chen Ao's head again. Yelu Yinde was quite jealous, but in front of Shen Ao, he would never dare to show any trace of it. That night, he watched Chen Ao lead the team to kill people. He was still chatting and laughing calmly that afternoon, and at night he took his sword and took him out, and turned his back on his face.

One night passed, Chen Ao got up early in the morning, and someone came to the palace. Chen Ao put on his court robes and entered the palace with the people coming from the palace. When he arrived at the door, he happened to bump into King Yue Li Ganzheng from the palace.

Li Gan was looking at Chen Ao, laughed and said, "Good Prince Penglai."

Chen Ao just smiled and said, "It's so good."

Li Ganzheng smiled and said, "Congratulations to the prince for becoming my son-in-law of Daxia." After that, a trace of temptation appeared on his face and said, "When will the prince plan to return to his country after the wedding?"

Seeing his nervous look, Chen Ao didn't understand what he was thinking? He said lightly: "Don't be anxious, why are you anxious?"

Li Ganzheng laughed dryly, looked at Chen Ao deeply, and whispered: "I can promote the good things of the prince, and can destroy the good things of the prince. The prince should do it himself. Don't forget that without me, the prince will be afraid that he will return empty-handed."

Chen Ao frowned and said, "I have something to tell you." He looked at the King of Yue and said word by word: "No one can take away what I want. If someone blocks people and kills people, Buddha blocks and kills Buddha."

Li Ganzheng snorted coldly and left with his sleeves.

The conversation between the two just now actually implies another meaning. What King Yue wants is to immediately eliminate the princess's disaster. Princess Miaomiao is Li Ganshun's only daughter, and as half-child, although the son-in-law inherited the throne and did not conform to the ancestral system, it would be a big concern after all. Therefore, Li Gan's implicit meaning was to urge Chen Ao to go quickly and take the princess back to the country. Chen Ao naturally understood the power of this. Before Xixia had completely turned to the Song Dynasty, he would never leave.

Li Gan asked Chen Ao to leave, but Chen Ao didn't leave. It seemed like a small conflict that was harmless, but it was all related to the personal interests of the two. If the negotiation was inappropriate, he naturally left.

Chen Ao ignored him. What was he afraid of as the King of Yue? Then he went straight into the palace without mentioning it.

Li Gan was fighting horses and returned to the Yue Palace. The gatekeeper came to greet him and said with a smile: "Your Highness, the two envoys of the Shenwu Army and Long Rangwei are asking for a visit."

Li Ganzheng was in a bad mood and slapped the doorman in the face: "Get out!"

After saying that, he rushed in angrily. When he arrived at the side hall, two people had been waiting for a long time. When the two of them looked at the golden collar on their necks, they knew that they were also royal families. One was Li Yan and the other Li Dan. When they saw Li Ganzheng, they immediately stood up and saluted, saying, "Your Highness."

Li Gan was sitting down and asked someone to serve tea. He held the teacup and said, "This time we are driving the tiger and swallowing the wolf. We drove away a hungry wolf, but another tiger came. That Chen Ao, I originally wanted to cooperate with him, but he was so cruel and ruthless. He was definitely not a good person. With the Song Dynasty behind him, if he was asked to be the prince consort, I am afraid he would still be a big trouble at that time."

Li Yan had a hot personality and sneered: "What are you afraid of him? Others are afraid of him, but I am not afraid. We are all descendants of Emperor Yuanhao, how could we be afraid of a Southern barbarian?"

Li Dan lowered his eyebrows and fell into deep thoughts, saying, "The most terrifying thing is his thousand cavalry. He can defeat the Jin people in one fell swoop. It should not be underestimated. If he wants to make trouble, he must cut off his wings."

Li Ganzheng shook his head and said, "It's not that far, but then again, my emperor brother is becoming less and less arrogant. He advocates Chinese studies so much that he would rather value the Southern Barbarians than use our country. This country belongs to the national, not the Southern Barbarians. Now he has found a Southern Barbarian as his son-in-law. Who knows when he was stunned and sent all the country out."

Speaking of this, Li Yan and Li Dan both had a frightened eyes. When the emperor was in the past, they were always generous to the country. Several important officials were from national origins. Even during the period when the empress dowager intervened in politics, they also relied on the country. By the time of Li Ganshun's dynasty, their status was getting worse and worse than before. The newly promoted southern barbarians were all scholars. Looking around, they were all scholars who spoke Chinese. The two sect kings still left the relationship between King Yue and finally got a real position. However, although they were military envoys of the imperial guards, they were afraid that in Li Ganshun's eyes, they were not as good as a minister.

Li Dan said: "It's better to try the awesomeness. It would be fine if he could scare him away."

Li Ganzheng lowered his eyebrows: "How can he be scared?"

Li Dan said: "Just say that Long Rangwei is going to perform martial arts in the suburbs of the city, and then choose the place to perform martial arts next to the Song army camp..." His voice became lower and lower, and the last sentence was almost followed by Li Ganzheng's ear.

After hearing this, Li Ganzheng pondered for a moment and said, "You can try it. I killed a few southern barbarians to see how the surname Chen can be? The Jin people are guests, so it's fine if they let him kill them. I don't believe it, but Chen Ao dares to treat me. After all, this is Xixia. After all, my fingers can make him come and go without a return."

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

In the warm pavilion, Chen Ao sat and tasted the Tianshan snow tea unique to Xixia. This tea is not a traditional tea, but is more like a kind of lotus seed soup. The reason why it is named tea is mostly because someone is a person's elegance.

Li Ganshun looked at him with a smile and said, "How?"

Chen Ao told the truth: "It's not very good."

Li Ganshun laughed and said, "You are not polite at all."

Chen Ao said: "Your Majesty is a wise ruler. Naturally, the wise ruler only listens to loyal words. Xiao Wang dares not deceive him, so he has to say something unpleasant."

Li Ganshun waved his hand and said, "It's okay." After that, he said, "If the Jin army goes south, can the Song Dynasty resist?"

Chen Ao shook his head.

Li Ganshun said again: "What about the Khitan?"

Chen Ao still shook his head.

Li Ganshun frowned, thinking that Chen Ao would make a few big words, and said, "That's how Daxia is even more unmatched."

Chen Ao took another sip of snow tea and said with a smile: "The Song Dynasty cannot resist now, which does not mean that it cannot resist three to five years later. The Khitan country cannot resist it, which does not mean that the Song Dynasty, Western Xia, and Khitan countries cannot resist it. The reason why the Jin people could surround the pass was nothing more than 300,000 iron cavalry, but after entering the pass, they faced many passes, which was not what they could do at."

This sentence has an exaggeration. As far as Chen Ao knows, the Jin people went south and were simply destroyed. All the passes and cities were like flat ground. But at this time, they were bragging. If they brag, they had to be humble first and then blew it out so that people could win the trust. If they were so devoted to the boasting, they could say that the Song Dynasty could resist the Jin people by their own strength. Li Ganshun was not a fool. He would probably drive himself away and let someone get rid of his burden and get out of here.

Li Gan Shunhe nodded, believed Chen Ao's words and said, "I heard that the Song Dynasty and the South China Sea have traded with the countries in South China. You can also try it here in Daxia. In the past, Xixia and the Song Dynasty only opened a trading channel. According to me, this is far from enough. Why not add three more?"

Chen Aohe nodded: "This is easy to say, Xiao Wang must have caused this." The implication of this sentence is that Xixia is willing to reconcile with the Song Dynasty, which is considered to be Li Ganshun's vague disclosure of his intentions.

After saying that, he stopped talking about the details. At this time, both sides had a common tacit understanding and no longer mentioned the unpleasant things in the past. He discussed calligraphy and painting for a while, and accompanied Li Ganshun for a while, and Li Ganshun seemed a little tired and raised his hand and said, "I respect the national rituals, but I don't like you Han people."

Chen Ao said: "Please tell me your Majesty."

Li Ganshun said: "You are too harsh to women. Although the three obediences and four virtues are good, they are overcorrecting them. My daughter is not allowed to marry. What kind of women's morality is as long as she doesn't steal the man, she is a woman's morality. The rest, just a little by little. The female Secretary also said that those who are strong on the Woman's Day are virtues. The others are all trivial matters."

Chen Ao didn't disgust Li Ganshun's words and smiled and said, "Your Majesty has also studied the female secretary."

Li Ganshun's face suddenly became gloomy. I don't know if Chen Ao's words were considered a curse, so I had to say, "Stop, I won't bother with you. Miao'er has always wanted to see you. She rode a horse in the back garden and let the palace servant lead you to see you."

The people of Xixia are relatively open, and it is okay for an unmarried couple to meet each other. Chen Ao has not really seen the true face of this princess yet. The few times he has seen it before are just vague. This time it is a political marriage. Don’t marry an ugly monster back. If this happens, he will roll up the bed and sleep on Wansui Mountain.
