Cry for Song

Chapter 110 Dialogue Shabu Hot Pot

At dusk, cooking smoke rose outside the tent. Li Liangzuo came out of the tent. He looked at Xingqing Mansion a few miles away, which was his foundation and his first step to dominate the world.

Li Liangzuo walked in the company camp, thinking while walking. What kind of attitude should he use next to the Han king he wants to meet later? There were only two guards of Feilongyuan behind him, watching the movement of him and him around him from a distance. The other soldiers were used to the young emperor who liked to be alone, and they were busy with their own things.

Li Liangzuo walked to General Manma's account, and two voices came from inside. He could hear that one was Manma's old but powerful voice, and the other should be the Song Guoren that Manma wanted to introduce. His voice was very young, but full of magnetism.

I was listening to Man Mie say, "Officials should follow their example, and the children of officials should not act arbitrarily. There is nothing wrong with the prince taking action."

As the king of a country, there is no need for Li Liangzuo to stand outside the tent and listen to the conversation between the two. The soldiers outside the tent came to see Li Liangzuo. As soon as he saluted, Li Liangzuo waved his hand and then opened the curtain and came in.

It was very surprising for Manbei and Wang to see Li Liangzuo in person. Manbei hurriedly saluted, and Wang also participated. Li Liangzuo looked at Wang with his hands behind his back, and the two looked at each other in surprise.

Li Liangzuo was surprised that when he heard of the business envoy of Song, he thought of the old man with an academic face. Later, when he heard that this man was relatively young, he thought that he was like Li Xili at best. Seeing that Wang was two or three years old, he was handsome and straight, with very good facial features, wisdom in his eyes, and a trace of arrogance at the corners of his mouth. Seeing that although he saluted but not humble, he was quite elegant.

Wang was also surprised to see Li Liangzuo. Li Liangzuo was the same age as Zhao Zhongzhen. Zhongzhen grew up in a honeypot. Although she was full of experience and wisdom, she was a little tender and weak. Li Liangzuo's sword eyebrows were tiger-eyed, and there was a trace of domineeringness between his eyebrows. No wonder others commented on him that he could commit adultery with Liang Luoyao at a young age and kill the exclusive family. The blood stained the courage of the family, whether it was the former prince Ning Lingge or Li Xili, was out of reach.

How important is the first impression? The first impression of Wang Bian and Li Liangzuo's meeting is the good impression of both sides, but Li Liangzuo is the emperor of the Western Xia after all. Although he is young, he never obeyed. He asked Manma, "General Man Lao said that the envoy of the State of Song is this one."

Man Mie replied, "Exactly," Li Liangzuo suddenly raised his face and asked, "You Song envoy, let me ask you, why did the State of Song send you to be a business envoy while banning the field from trading with our country?"

Li Liangzuo's words were quite a bit of a tendency to ask for crimes. He was stunned. Just now, the little emperor was happy with the matter sent by the State of Song to discuss the matter. He would be blamed. If the king's side answered badly, would he even blame himself? He turned his head and looked at the king, but saw the king smiling.

Wang wanted to ask this question. At first glance, it was a question, but from Li Liangzuo's mouth in front of him, he said that he worked hard. On the contrary, he was like a child. If you want to lift it, I will accompany you. It's not bad to tease children. He knew that Li Liangzuo must have played cards according to common sense. Otherwise, how could he slip into the general's tent? So he looked at Li Liangzuo and said, "Why did you, the emperor of the State of Xia, face the State of Song and ask you to give the surname Han, and on the other hand, you use troops to plunder the city of the State of Song?"

After saying that, the two continued to look at each other, which scared Man Mi. Man Mi was not a timid person, but he knew that Li Liangzuo took a heavy action and was ruthless. From Li Liangzuo, no one dares to talk to him like this.

There was a silence in the tent, looking at the two young people who were looking at each other. Looking at each other, Wang Bian and Li Liangzuo seemed to see a common temperament, that is, disobedent and domineering. Suddenly, the two laughed at the same time.

Wang said, "It is rumored that he is a young hero today, and it is really extraordinary to see it today. Looking back to the question, if the State of Song does not send merchants, how can we coordinate the lifting of the forbidden matter?

Li Liangzuo smiled with his hands behind his back. Hearing Wang's words, he said, "I want to get close to the State of Song, but he always shuts me out. Of course I will fight. There is a great righteousness between countries. Do you think so?

The king said, "Now we know the great righteousness of the country. Please be careful when doing the matter of plundering the city with troops, otherwise it will cause the disaster of the swords and soldiers of the two countries, and the people will be blamed. Isn't it in vain to talk about justice?

Li Liangzuo looked at the king and said with a smile, "You are the merchant envoy of the State of Song, not here to fight, right?"

Wang side also smiled: "Since ancient times, the emperor has yearned for the culture of the Central Plains. Only by strengthening himself can he dominate the world. Whether he is doing business or culture with the Central Plains, how can he strengthen the economy if he does not communicate? If the economy is not strong, the people will suffer as well.

What Wang said was Li Liangzuo's yearning for to dominate the world. Although he was precocious, he relied on the bravery of the newborn calf not to be afraid of the tiger, so he was today. But no one really taught him how to be a king. At the age of one, he was appointed as a prince, and he was always at the mercy of others like a puppet. With determination, he was today. Listening to the king's words, Li Liangzuo was still moved.

He went to the tent and saw that where the two of them had just sat down, there was a strange-shaped carbon pot in the middle of the ground. He motioned Wang to sit down and talk to Man Mi, and he also sat opposite them. The three of them surrounded the pot. At this time, the carbon in the pot and the water in the sink of the outer ring boiled, and it was very warm to sit here.

After sitting down, his tone softened a lot, but he still stared at the king and said, "It's strange that your ambassador came here. Obviously, it's your Song Dynasty that doesn't allow me to use the surname of Han, and it's also your Song Dynasty that prohibits the consultation. What does it mean that you come to do?"

Wang still kept smiling. Seeing that his tone was relaxed, he knew that he had gone in his heart, so he replied, "I came to the State of Xia without official communication. I am a businessman of the State of Song and a subject of the State of Song. Of course, I hope that Song and Xia will not fight and discuss with each other, so that our merchants and subjects can be profitable, and the people can be rich and the country can be strong. Do you think so now?"

Li Liangzuo warmed his hands with the heat in the pot and said, "You're right, but you don't open the market. How can you do business?"

Seeing that Li Liangzuo could enter his own words, Wang side guided him step by step and said, "I am the wish of the subjects, but I still have to make a statement today. It is not sincere enough to ask for the opening of the city while attacking the city. If Xia can be sincere, I am willing to deal with it. Achieve the wish of trade between the two countries.

Li Liangzuo laughed and said, "I admire you very much for your courage. No matter what the righteousness between the State of Xia and the State of Song is, I have made you as a friend. When I returned to Xingqing Mansion, I immediately sent someone to escort Mr. Wang back to the State of Song and accompanied him with the New Year's Day gift. It's coordinated by the prince. Do you think it's good?"

The king stood up and bowed and saluted: "Thank you for your love today. Wang's first class of grass-people, this honor is also a blessing for the subjects of the State of Xia and the State of Song. At this age, he is so profound and righteous, and sometimes the State of Xia will also shake the national prestige."

No matter how mature Li Liangzuo is, he is not more than fifteen or sixteen years old. He is inevitably not proud to hear this. He grinned, showing his white teeth and dimples, and his smile was very sunny and bold. No wonder Liang Luoyao will be attracted to Li Liangzuo. This young man is very beautiful. As for Li Liangzuo's lust, it is mostly his appearance.

Wang was slightly relieved. Li Liangzuo really did not play cards according to common sense. His own judgment was right, but if Zhong Zhi succeeded to the throne in the future, Li Liangzuo would definitely be a strong enemy of the State of Song.

Li Liangzuo turned his eyes to Manba and said, "The recommendation of Lord Man is really extraordinary. It's better to eat together and drink a few cups later. I also see the amount of the prince's drink."

Manma hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty..."

Li Liangzuo stopped him and said, "General Man, don't look outside. In terms of your seniority, you are my elder and a meritorious minister in protecting the country. Don't be an emperor one by one. Now it's not on the hall. The most annoying thing is those red tape. You also call me Liangzuo. We can drink and talk freely.

When Manma saw Li Liangzuo say so, he did not refute it. He also knew his identity and knew that the emperor had this temper. Wang wanted to think that this boy was calculating, so that these old ministers naturally loved him more, so that because he was young, it was not suitable for him to govern the country. So it seems that Li Xili has no hope to show up.

Manma said, "Liangzuo, this prince brought you a gift, but I don't know if you like it."

After saying that, he pointed to the carbon pot in front of them. Li Liangzuo said, "This guy is fresh, but it's not as good as a hand stove. It's troublesome to carry it."

Wang next to a smile: "Then please ask General Manma to present what he has prepared and let him have a try today."

Li Liangzuo was very curious when he saw that there were other things. Among the orders, there were fresh lamb mutton prepared by the attendants, which were cut into slices and put them on the plate, as well as the fresh beef. In addition, the rest of the plate was full of raw fresh vegetables. These are all around the carbon pot. There was also a small amount of sesame oil prepared by the entourage.

"This, this is?" Li Liangzuo wondered what the raw food was for.

Man Mie said, "Today, I will invite the emperor to eat here. This is the prince who specially set up a banquet for the emperor on the way. Mr. Wang, please demonstrate"

The king suppressed a smile in his heart. He took chopsticks, picked up the meat slices and cooked them in a carbon pot. He dipped them in a small seasoning bowl and put them in his mouth. He sighed in his heart that the ancient mutton was delicious when he did not eat feed and wild.

Seeing him like this, Li Liangzuo also learned from the king's side and brushed the meat. Xixia people often eat meat, but most of them are roasted or fried. What's more, he is the prince, and the cash is the emperor. What he eats is cooked meat. It's the first time to eat raw lettuce like this.

Pick up the cooked seasoning and put it in your mouth. The gravy is delicious, and the aroma of the seasoning also follows the fragrance of the fresh meat. Li Liangzuo took two bites and put down his chopsticks: "It's so delicious. Drink, drink!"

This winter, sitting in the tent, drinking and eating meat. Such a comfortable and warm atmosphere makes the little emperor particularly happy than sitting on the empty and cold hall, looking at the half-cool food and the face of the minister wearing a mask. It also made Li Liangzuo and Wang's side closer.
