Chapter 199 Assumptions

The next day, there was a heavy rain, and the streets of Taiyuan were covered with deep water and muddy.

The weather is so bad that the distance from the post hall to Xuanfusi is not very close, so today's diplomatic meeting between the two countries has to be temporarily cancelled.

Zhang Xiaochun wanted to send someone to Guanyi to inform Shi Liai, and then Chu Tianya came. When his mind moved, Chu Tianya was brave enough to go to Guanyi for this trip. When he saw him, he immediately fell in love with him.

How can Zhang Xiaochun refuse? With a few soldiers from Xuanfu Division, the military commander Chu Tianya went to the hall.

Shi Liai accompanied more than 30 or 40 people, and all the hall stations in Taiyuan Mansion were vacated for them. Now, the guards of the State of Jin are guarding them inside and outside the hall. Originally, Zhang Xiaochun also sent some people to receive them. Because they were not in good temper with each other, these people took advantage of the heavy rain to hide and were lazy.

After Chu Tianya's notice, he entered the hall. Shi Liai was sitting in a pavilion reading a book. There were several bodyguards around him, and there was a child who was waiting for the book.

Seeing Chu Tianya coming over with an umbrella, the eyes of the bodyguards were angry. What happened yesterday was still vivid. They hated this bold and rude young general of the Song Dynasty.

"Don't stare at him like that." Shi Li Ai read the book and said without squint.

"Master, this person is rude, it's better to kill him!" The bodyguard nearby gritted his teeth and said.

"Kill him? You are not good enough. Shi Liai put down the book with a slight smile, looked at Chu Tianya, who was approaching step by step, and said to himself, "Even if you stare at him, you are not qualified."

The bodyguard who was talking couldn't help but be stunned, "Does this person have unique skills, or is he very good?"

Shi Liai smiled slightly, "All I know is that if the wolf owner sees him, he will definitely sit with him."

The bodyguard's eyes suddenly widened, and his mouth opened into a circle.

At this time, Chu Tianya had already walked to the pavilion, put down his umbrella and bowed his fist. "The last general came to pass the message on by the order of Zhang Zhifu. Due to the bad weather, it is not convenient for the exchange talks today. If there is anything wrong, I hope you can forgive me.

"It's reasonable, don't say anything." Shi Liai stood up with a smile, took two steps forward with his back cut and walked to Chu Tianya. He smiled and said, "General Song can condescend to come in person, but it is an unexpected surprise."

"Oh, is it?" Chu Tianya smiled indifferently.

"General, please sit down!" Shi Liai took a step aside and pointed to the stone bench opposite him.

Chu Tianya was not polite. He hugged his fist and sat down. Shi Liai sat back in his seat and ordered the attendant to serve tea and take snacks.

"I didn't expect you to be so hospitable." Chu Tianya laughed.

"The state of etiquette in the Central Plains should also follow the customs!" Shi Liai said, "I think the general's appearance is extraordinary, and he must have come from a noble background. Although he is bending himself to the army now, he will become a great weapon every day.

"Then it's your auspicious words." Chu Tianya smiled and said, "Actually, the last general is satisfied that he can be the commander of this army, and there is no extravagant thought."

"hoho!" Shi Liai couldn't help laughing and clapping her hands and laughing.

"Why are you laughing so much?" Chu Tianya asked.

"Of course, I am laughing at people and ridiculous things." Shi Liai raised her eyelids, and her eyes wiped on Chu Tianya's face like a blade.

"What's so funny? Can you say it and make the last general happy?" Chu Tianya said indifferently.

"I can't." Shi Li Ai answered with a smile, very decisive.

"Haha!" Now it was Chu Tianya who laughed. He said, "Your envoy, what an interesting person."

"The general is the same." Shi Liai raised the teacup and said, "Come on, I will use tea instead of wine. I would like to pay respect to the general and a wonderful person."

"Please!" Chu Tianya was not polite, so he answered his invitation.

After putting down the tea cup, Shi Liai stared at Chu Tianya with a pair of eyes, as if to see the first pore on his face clearly, without blinking.

"I will be embarrassed if you look at me like this." Chu Tianya smiled and said, "It must be stated that the last general does not have the habit of Longyang with broken sleeves and peaches."

"Oh, the general is really funny." Shi Liai smiled carelessly and said, "It's true that face comes from the heart."

"So, will you still meet each other?"

"I know a little about one or two."

Chu Tianya smiled and said, "Then how about asking your envoy to teach me? What does this face look like?"

"Oh! ..." Shi Liai smiled softly in a long voice, seemed to hesitate for a moment, and said, "The general's face can only be satisfactory and cannot be said. However, I seem to remember that I have seen a face similar to a general in the Kingdom of Gold.

"Oh? It's not my brother who has been separated for many years!" Chu Tianya laughed.

"Of course not." Shi Liai said, "The so-called face is not the appearance. The face can reveal a person's temperament and fate. The person I was talking about is similar to the general's face in many places.

"Who would that be?" Chu Tianya asked.

"The fourth prince of the State of Jin, that is, the fourth prince of you Song people, Wanyan Zongbi." Shi Liai said.

"Wu Shu?" Chu Tianya smiled and said, "No way!"

"It seems that the general is no stranger to him." Shi Liai smiled and said, "It's just after dinner. The general doesn't have to care. If the general can see him with his own eyes, he will naturally understand.

Chu Tianya nodded quietly and said to himself: Hearing the meaning of Shi Li Ai's words, it's nothing more to tell me. Don't think that if you win Wanyan Zonghan, you will be invincible in the world and be able to despise the Kingdom of Jin. In the Kingdom of Jin, there are far more powerful characters than Zong Han. Figuratively speaking, the fourth prince Wanyan Zongbi, the golden art in Yue Fei's biography.

"I don't know, is there any news about the person I entrusted to the general?" Shi Liai suddenly asked.

"Not yet." Chu Tianya replied, "Don't worry, I will try my best to help you find it."

"That's good." Shi Liai picked up the tea cup and pretended to be careless and said, "Hiddenly, the general, the main woman of the wolf. If you can't bring people back, you can't explain it!"

"Oh, it turns out that she still has such a special identity, the wife of Marshal Jin." Chu Tianya said deliberately.

"No, it's not madam." Shi Liai stared at Chu Tianya's eyes, "It's just a game, it's no different from eagles, dogs and horses."

Chu Tianya's heart tightened inexplicably, and his expression also changed slightly.

Shi Liai seemed to see what he wanted to see. She smiled a little proudly and said, "Men, their own women don't want to be robbed by others, even if they are tired of playing, general?"

"That's true." Chu Tianya answered casually and said to himself that this man was still using alienation for me. He insisted on telling me that Pearl was a broken shoe and a rotten woman who was tired of Wanyan Zonghan. Shi Li loves this guy, and his mind is really deep!

"It's a trivial matter, and I won't mention it again and again. If the general finds her, whether he dies or dies, please bring her to the envoy. I will thank you very much!" Shi Liai said.

"Good." Chu Tianya didn't say much, so he was ready to get up and leave.

"Where is the general going?" Shi Li Ai asked.

"Of course, go back to the barracks." Chu Tianya replied.

Shi Li'ai also stood up and said, "I have nothing to do. I don't know if I can ask the general to accompany me to visit Taiyuan City?"

"I'm afraid it's not convenient to rain so heavily and the roads are muddy." Chu Tianya said.

"It doesn't matter. It's not interesting." Shi Liai deliberately insisted and asked someone to take the umbrella, "General, please?"

"Then it's better to obey than to be respectful."

The group, Chu Tianya, took several soldiers of Xuanfu Division, and Shi Liai took some bodyguards of the State of Jin, so they left the hall and walked to the muddy Taiyuan Street.

Due to the heavy rain, pedestrians on the street are extremely rare. It was close to the north gate, so Shi Li Ai said that he wanted to go to the north city of Taiyuan to have a look.

Chu Tianya took them with him.

The sky and the earth are surging, and the rain is like a curtain. The Taihang mountains in the distance are hazy, and the water of Jin Ancestral Hall is only a faint shape.

"Taiyuan, a good place!" After raising her eyes for a while, Shi Liai sighed, "The mountains and rivers are majestic and dangerous. It is indeed a place where soldiers must fight for."

Chu Tianya did not answer and stood quietly next to him.

Shi Liai patted the wet female wall tiles and said, "Has the general ever participated in the Battle of Taiyuan last year?"

"There has been." Chu Tianya replied briefly.

Shi Liai smiled slightly, "The soldiers who can survive that war are all great people. Whether it's Song people or Jurchens, they are all amazing.

"I agree with this." Chu Tianya turned his head and looked at him, "As far as I know, your envoy has also been to the battlefield in person?"

"Yes! The envoy not only participated in the war, but also committed the crime of dereliction of duty, so that the wolf owner was defeated and left Huanglong Valley. Shi Liai smiled at himself and also met Chu Tianya's eyes and looked at him. "In that war, countless people died, and finally only a few people were made. Is it like this, General Song?"

"War, hasn't it always been like this?" Chu Tianya said indifferently, "Listen to your tone, the State of Jin must go and return to avenge last year's arrow?"

"hoho!" Shi Liai smiled, "If the purpose of the war is to vent revenge and anger, it is not only meaningless, but also must be defeated. General Song, what do you think?

"You have a high opinion." Chu Tianya answered, and his heart couldn't help but move slightly: Shi Li Ai's calmness and wisdom are indeed beyond ordinary people. After experiencing a failure, such a person will not be angered and defeated, but will be more cautious and powerful... This is a dangerous signal for us!

"General Song, if you were the wolf owner, how would you attack Taiyuan City?" Shi Liai suddenly asked such a completely out of style question.

When the people around listened, they all raised their spirits and were full of vigilance.

"This is the problem..." Chu Tianya smiled and said in a very relaxed and casual tone, "If I were Wanyan Zonghan, I wouldn't come to fight Taiyuan."

"Why?" Shi Liai answered and asked naturally.

"Because..." Chu Tianya grinned, "He has lost once and can't afford to lose anymore. At present, for him, only if he defeats the Taiyuan without blood can he win. But Guishi, do you think it's possible?
