The people of Liaoyang City stretched their necks and stood on tiptoe to watch the mighty army in the distance. The words of some sensible people gradually brought the people's speculation back to reality. The strictness and mightyness of the Song Dynasty army had a deep impression on them.

Unlike other people who looked around and talked a lot, an old man with an average appearance of about sixty years old was just quietly observing everything around him. Even though he was completely different from the people who were watching curiously, almost no one could notice his difference.

Throwing it in the crowd will not attract attention at all. It is a rare innate condition for a plate. Dong Chao naturally possesses this extremely superior talent. Even if he is stuck in the crowd, he is not watching the front, but looking around or listening to others' comments. However, almost even the people closest to him can hardly detect the difference between Dong Chao.

As the Song army slowly continued to move forward, the crowd that had gathered gradually began to dissipate, and they continued to wander among the crowd with their dirty bags on their backs until they walked to the corner not far away. Dong Chao, who seemed honest and dull, looked around as if he was lost.

After seeing the signboard of a restaurant not far away, Dong Chao identified the direction again and then slowly walked towards the rather luxurious restaurant.

Standing in front of several gurus who were looking down at the door, enduring the contempt and drive away by those gurus. Dong Chao just smiled honestly, and then continued to walk forward to the entrance of the alley behind the restaurant.

The entrance of the alley with not many pedestrians, and the unpretentious Dong Chao seemed so harmonious that it would not make people feel abrupt or strange at all.

Without saying a word, Dong Chao sat there, took out a slightly flat stone, and took out a hard cake from the bag and started eating it.

It was just a cup of tea, and a very ordinary carriage slowly turned into the alley. The sound of horse hooves and wheels did not arouse Dong Chao's curiosity at all. However, the carriage stopped unconsciously before and after reaching Dong Chao.

The coachman calmly glanced at Dong Chao who was squatting on the street and gnawing on the big cakes, and did not speak, and no one could hear the voices in the carriage.

The carriage stopped there quietly, while Dong Chao continued to eat the last bite of the cake in his hand as if no one else was around.

He took out the sheepskin kettle and swallowed the last piece of cake. After reaching out to pick the gap between his teeth, he said as if no one was around: "Is it settled?"

Only then did a female voice come from the carriage: "It's settled."

"Be careful in everything. The first time I see you, don't let people notice it. Tell him that I will wait in Long'an City." Dong Chao seemed to be bowing his head and talking to himself.

A woman's voice came from the carriage again: "Yes."

Dong Chao thought for a while and explained: "The scouts were almost wiped out today. This matter has not been reported to Shangjing, but Wanyan Bi and Wanyan Fuxing may not dare to suppress this matter. So once this matter is reported to Shangjing, I am afraid that there will be no time to report any changes there. In short, after the matter is finished today, you are still staring at the line between Wanyan Fuxing and the Goryeo people, so you must not reveal any suspicious things today, so as not to waste our efforts in the end."

"I understand." The woman said in her voice.

Dong Chao stood up, and a slender and tender hand stretched out from the curtain of the carriage. There was a piece of silver in the palm of his hand. But before Dong Chao could reach out to pick it up, the white and delicate hand and wrist were thrown to Dong Chao's feet.

Dong Chao looked down at the broken silver, then looked at the white and tender hand that quickly retracted. Instead of getting angry, he bowed to the carriage with gratitude and thanked him repeatedly. Then after the carriage slowly left, a happy smile finally appeared on his face. He picked up the broken silver, wiped it on the cuff and put it in his own bag.

As Dong Chao continued to move forward from the back alley, at the intersection not far away, two men with deep and gloomy expressions looked at Dong Chao's back. Finally, they looked at each other, then turned to look at the restaurant not far ahead: "I can't tell that Zhao Pan'er is actually a kind-hearted little lady."

"Why do you always feel that the old man looks familiar?" Another man said with confusion.

Another smiled and said, "When you first met Zhao Paner, I remember you said that too. Why? Now, not only do you feel familiar when you meet the little lady, but you will also feel like you fall in love at first sight when you see the old man?"

The teased man glared at his companion angrily, and then as he watched the old man walk to the alley in front and greet other people, he finally relaxed his vigilance and said to his companion who teased him: "It's better to think about how to pay your gambling debts with this skill. By the way, I tell you that you can't miss the big deal of Lord Zuo Xiang today, otherwise, be careful that your head is not safe..."

"That's not right. In this way, I'll see who I want to go to for my gambling debt. I'm going to die and I'm happy." The man said, following his companions to the restaurant. At this time, a rather luxurious carriage had already parked downstairs at the entrance of the restaurant, just waiting for Zhao Panergu.

My mother went downstairs to the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion.

On the other hand, after Ye Qing, who had arrived at the mansion, exchanged greetings with Wanyan Fuxing, Wanyan Bi and others again, the officials of the Jin Kingdom left the mansion where Ye Qing was located under the leadership of Wanyan Fuxing and Wanyan Bi.

Yelu Yixue, Yelu Shibei, Xu Fangwu, Kong Chi and Jia She were no one. After relocating their soldiers, they gathered in the hall where Ye Qing was located.

"King of Yan, do you really want to attend the dinner they held today?" Yelu Yixue asked first.

"Of course we have to go. Since Wanyan Fuxing and Wanyan Bi are so proud of their face, isn't it suitable for us to go?" Ye Qing said with a smile. Rather than saying that it was Wanyan Fuxing who met today, Wanyan Bi hit it off at first sight, it would be better to say that Ye Qing had already begun to do it. He might have planned to jointly attack Goryeo with the Jin Kingdom.

Wanyan Xun put Wanyan Bi and Wanyan Fuxing two privately not very speculative people to Liaoyang Prefecture. This was not only a check and balance of the officialdom of the emperor, but also a plan to make a precaution for the friction with Goryeo.

The key to Liaoyang Prefecture is that at this time it is not only a bridge between Goryeo and the Jin Kingdom, but also a rocket used by the Jin Kingdom to form an alliance with the Song court. Therefore, Wanyan Xun had to treat Liaoyang Prefecture more cautiously than other prefectures.

After nightfall, Liaoyang Prefecture seemed even more deserted. Although it was a big city above the Jin Dynasty, in the eyes of Ye Qing and others, even Yanjing is not as good as that of today. After nightfall, the deserted streets were sparse and even empty streets could explain the problem.

However, compared to the deserted streets, the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion is very lively today, with bright lights. You can see the big red lanterns in front of the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion from a distance, which set off the lively atmosphere.

Carriages came one by one, and the dignitaries walked off the carriage one by one, with mostly a look of pride on their faces. The butlers in the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion and other low-ranking officials came to see each other at the door, looking at the carriage of the most important guest tonight from time to time, when will they come?

When the envoy of the Song court slowly turned into the carriage from the corner of the street, the servants sent by the steward of the Left Prime Minister's Office to report the report. Wanyan Fuxing and Wanyan Bi, who were greeting other officials in the hall, immediately followed the servants to the front door of the mansion.

Wanyan Fuxing and Wanyan Bi had just stood still, and the carriage of the Song Ting envoy stopped in front of them. In front of the mansion, which was originally a little crowded because of the turn of other carriages, as Ye Qing's carriage arrived, it immediately became orderly. The carriages that should have left and turned around at this moment had to stop temporarily and wait for the carriage of the Song Ting envoy to go first.

Accompanied by Wanyan Fuxing and Wanyan Bi, the envoys of the Song court were surrounded by several people into the hall of the dinner party, just like emperors of the Jin Kingdom.

Naturally, Ye Qing sat in the main seat, and the officials who could sit at the same table as Ye Qing, Wanyan Fuxing and Wanyan Bi were all prestigious figures, whether in Liaoyang or Jin.

In Wanyan Fuxing's view, the unique spirits of the Jin Kingdom and the dishes that have already blended the characteristics of Central Plains are enough to satisfy Ye Qing.

After the banquet began, Ye Qing was quite satisfied with Wanyan Fuxing's arrangement, especially when the music sounded, the one in front had been placed long ago, with a thick carpet, which was made by the Song people, and began to slowly walk into the center from one side.

"Zhao Paner, the courtesan of Liaoyang and even my great Jin, is said to have even supported the emperor." Wanyan Fuxing whispered to Ye Qing, who was very interested, and continued to whisper: "But the emperor could visit in a very private manner at that time, and there were not many people in the court and the country, so I hope that the king of Yan would not put the subordinates in it."

"That's natural. I naturally bit my teeth tightly and I will never reveal a word." Ye Qing said with a smile, his eyes were always staring at the center in front of him, Zhao Paner, the young woman who was still holding a pipa and half-covered.

"This was hired by Lord Zuo Xiang for the King of Yan to spend a lot of money. This shows Lord Zuo Xiang's sincerity towards King of Yan, which makes the lower officials jealous." Wanyan Bi said with a smile.

In front of Ye Qing, both of them unconsciously claimed to be inferior officials. To Yelu Yixue, it seemed that the Liaoyang Prefecture was not a city of the Jin Kingdom, but a city of the Song Dynasty.

Tan Zhiwang, who was sitting at another table, looked at the envoy of the Song court from time to time. In his eyes, Wanyan Fuxing, Wanyan Bi and the King of Yan were actually a very harmonious picture, just like Ye Qing was also the King of Yan of the Jin Kingdom.

While chatting, the few people watched the red flower Zhao Paner against the backdrop of several other green-leafed women. The graceful figure looked very unworldly. As the graceful figure danced, Zhao Paner's singing began to sound in the hall. The singing like a yellow oriole instantly attracted cheers from everyone in the hall.

The singing sounded, and the cheers were thunderous, and the gauze that had originally covered Zhao Paner's cheek slowly slid down as Zhao Paner danced like his arms stretching towards the night sky. In an instant, there were thunderous cheers in the hall.

Ye Qing's eyes were clear and bright, but even so, he couldn't help but admire the young woman in front of him for her.

Grasp and appreciate Zhao Paner’s dance and singing voice.

Especially as the whole person leaped lightly and then stretched out his arm to point the star in the sky, making everyone cheer for her lightness and agility, the masked gauze scarf began to fall slowly, revealing the beautiful face. Even though people suddenly lit up in front of their eyes, they had to cheer for Zhao Paner's subtle thoughts again.

Wanyan Fuxing and Wanyan Bi obviously had seen Zhao Paner's true face, but even though they had seen it several times, when the gauze scarf on Zhao Paner's cheek slid off, their heartstrings seemed to be gently moved by the slender white fingers, and their expressions were a little lost in an instant.

However, with the louder cheers, the two of them instantly realized their disobedience just now. After unconsciously looking at each other, they also looked at Ye Qing who had been staring at Zhao Paner ahead.

"What does the King of Yan think?" Wanyan Fuxing asked.

"The stage is beautiful, the song is beautiful, the people are beautiful, and the lyrics are beautiful." Ye Qing said as if he was sincerely admiring.

"When will Su Shi's bright moon appear? Not only will it be loved by scholars and girls in your country, but it is the same in our Jin Dynasty. I have to say that this poem is a masterpiece." Wanyan Fuxing said with great enthusiasm.

Ye Qing was unconsciously curious when he heard this. Obviously, he didn't expect that Wanyan Fuxing was so familiar and respectful of Su Shi's poems.

As if he knew what Ye Qing was thinking, Wanyan Fuxing smiled embarrassedly and began to explain his views on the various poets and poems of the Song Dynasty to Ye Qing. Finally, he said modestly: "If you talk about this in front of the King of Yan, I hope that the King of Yan will not make any jokes."

"It's not surprising that Su Shi's poems will be appreciated by Zuo Xiang, but... Zuo Xiang even praised Xin Qiji's poems, but I was so impressed by this king." Ye Qing said with a smile. Wanyan Fuxing was also humble, but he obviously had already been familiar with Xin Qiji's poems, and even could comment in front of Ye Qing.

Moreover, Wanyan Fuxing was excited, and it was just when Zhao Paner finished singing the water tune. Then Wanyan Fuxing suddenly stood up and said to the women holding musical instruments that followed Zhao Paner and Zhao Paner, "That breaking time of Xin Qiji is said to be deeply loved by Miss Paner. How about Miss Paner after you and me?"

And Zhao Paner should have walked down the railing and brought to Yan Wang Ye Qing to toast, but because of Wanyan Fuxing's words, he was also a little stunned for a moment.

Ye Qing looked at Zhao Paner who was hesitant and wanted to see how this woman who was wandering in the dust and regarded as a forbidden plaything by the powerful and powerful people would deal with it. Wanyan Bi on the other side seemed even more worried that Zhao Paner was in a dilemma. He immediately smoothed out and said, "If you satisfy the King of Yan, it would be a good story if you give you an extra glass of water and wine, right?"

At that moment, Zhao Paner's beautiful eyes circulated, and Wanyan Fuxing saluted slightly at Wanyan Bi, and then Yu Guang quickly glanced at Queen Yan sitting in the middle, and began to sing again.

But compared to the sorrow but not hurt, the water tune song head full of tenderness, as the controversy sounded rapidly, Zhao Paner's ethereal voice as if it was added to the golden sword and iron horse, becoming sonorous and powerful.

I looked at the sword with a lamp while drunk, and dreamed of blowing the horns and camps. I divided my subordinates with 800 miles, and I heard the sound of fifty strings, and the soldiers on the battlefield were drawn. The horses were made of fast, and the bow was astonished as thunder and strings. I ended the affairs of the king and won the reputation of his life. Poor white happened!

Wanyan Fuxing and Wanyan Bi were very happy about Zhao Paner chanting this lyrics, while Ye Qing looked like water. On the surface, he could not tell what he was thinking, but Yelu Yixue was full of curiosity. He really couldn't believe that Xin Qiji's lyrics could be sung in public in the Jin Dynasty, and even the officials of the Jin Dynasty did not shy away from anything.

However, compared to the first song by Su Shi's water tune song that Zhao Paner sang, this poem, which seems both sensitive and insensitive at the moment, has received much less applause and cheer.

But even so, after Zhao Paner finished singing, everyone still gave the courtesan who was said to be the best in the Jin Dynasty, so that she would not let her walk down from the middle of the railing coldly.

A glass of water and wine had been prepared. Zhao Paner reached out and picked up the wine cup and bowed to Ye Qingying. After complimenting, he took the lead in drinking three cups in a row.

Ye Qing's expression was very calm from beginning to end, neither warm nor disgusted, but Zhao Paner was extremely happy when toasting. He also raised his head and drank three cups in a row, which instantly attracted the cheers of Wanyan Fuxing, Wanyan Bi and others.

The young woman left the lowest seat for Zhao Paner, and Zhao Paner did not move a few chopsticks to the food in front of her from beginning to end. No matter who greeted the young woman, the young woman would smile, and then extricate herself on the grounds that the little woman wanted to keep her dance light so as not to disappoint everyone.
