N-M Chapter 329: Confrontation In Secret
Chapter 329: Confrontation In Secret
It is said that people cannot be judged by their appearance.
Looking at it now, it really is.
If Xu Qing hadn't talked to this woman, he would have thought that she was a valiant female general just by looking at her demeanor and posture.
As a result, the woman revealed her naive nature as soon as she opened her mouth.
Simple with a hint of cuteness.
It must be fun to marry such a woman home.
I wonder who will be the husband of this woman in the future.
It was not easy for the mission to bring such a girl to the capital of Chu State safely.
Xu Qing looked at the woman and said, "Are you lost? Are you looking for the location of the Xichen Banquet?"
The woman still insisted: "I didn't!"
Xu Qing sighed and said, "Come with me."
After all, Xu Qing walked towards a secluded path, which can be reached as soon as possible.
Not to mention this naive girl from Zhao country, if Xu Qing hadn't been to Xianwang's mansion several times, he would also get lost, because it is very big.
【normal size】
And Xu Qing also saw the honesty of this woman from Zhao country.
He said no, but he followed closely.
The woman followed Xu Qing, looked at his back, and murmured softly, "A kind-hearted Chu countryman."
After Xu Qing arrived at the cleansing banquet, he sat down. After the woman walked in, she glanced at Zhao Guoren's position, walked over and sat down.
A Zhao Guo envoy saw the woman approaching and asked, "Master Deputy Envoy, where did you go just now?"
The woman just sat down straight, without looking sideways, and said lightly: "The banquet was boring, so I went around."
...
Directly treating the wedding banquet as a dust-cleaning banquet not only saves a sum of money for a special dust-cleaning banquet, but also makes Zhao Guo obediently pay a share of the money. If it is really spending other people's money to invite others to eat, it will eventually cheat others.
Chu people really know how to play!
[Xu Qing: Why are you looking at me? Eat vegetables! 】
Although the wedding banquet is regarded as a dust-cleaning banquet, there are indispensable steps above the wedding banquet.
I saw Xiao Ye and Zheng Wan'er holding concentric knots in their hands, stepped over the brazier, and began to pray to heaven and earth.
After the three prostrations, the bride was sent to the bridal chamber, and Xiao Ye, who was originally in a red robe, had to stay on the wedding banquet and turn the tables to accompany the guests. This was etiquette.
But because of the presence of envoys from other countries today, Xiao Ye just toasted each table together, and then came to the dust-cleaning banquet.
Xiao Ye in a red robe sat down next to Xu Qing.
In the end, the Emperor and Xian Wang of Chu also sat down one after another.
As soon as these two are seated, the dust-cleaning banquet can begin.
The Emperor of Chu looked at Zhao Guozheng and said: "The envoy came from a long way, just in time for my nephew's wedding banquet, it is really a double happiness, it should be a good omen!"
Zhao Guozheng said with cupped hands: "What His Majesty said is true, it is indeed double happiness."
Chu Huang said: "Just now the concierge came to report, and the expensive envoy unexpectedly sent a congratulatory gift of 80,000 taels on behalf of Zhao Guoyoubang. How can you be so embarrassing?"
The woman who was the deputy envoy couldn't help clenching her small fists under the table when she heard this, feeling angry in her heart, can we not mention this matter?
Zhao Guozheng said: "Chu and Zhao are good neighbors and friendly countries. Small things are really not respectful. Your Majesty the Emperor must not be so alien!"
The Emperor Chu looked at the position of the deputy envoy and said with a smile: "I never thought that the deputy envoy of your country is a woman. It is true that a woman does not give way to a man, and she will be very extraordinary in the future."
The envoy Zhao Guozheng said: "The deputy envoy is the only daughter of Marshal Long of the Western Army in Zhao Guozhen, Long Bing'er, who has learned a set of military tactics from Marshal Long since she was young. Your Majesty, don't look at the deputy envoy Long when he is young. , but he has military exploits on him.”
Long Bing'er stood up, cupped hands and said: "I have seen His Majesty the Emperor."
Emperor Chu nodded, with admiration in his eyes: "It really is a tiger father without a dog girl. As a woman, she can be a military hero at a young age, and she should be a hero among women."
It is not easy to make military achievements, and it is even more difficult to make military achievements as a woman. This Long Binger can do so much, even the Emperor Chu couldn't help admiring.
Long Bing'er just said indifferently: "His Majesty the Emperor appreciates it."
After finishing speaking, Long Bing'er sat down upright, still with a calm expression.
After these words, the naive look just now disappeared without a trace, which made Xu Qing amazed.
Obviously, half an hour ago, she was a naive Zhao Guoren, but now she has become a heroic female general.
It really is the Eighteenth Change of the Female University.
Girl, it's really unpredictable!
Xiao Ye, who was sitting next to Xu Qing, whispered: "This woman has actually gone to the battlefield and killed the enemy. She always has a faint murderous aura, which is well restrained. It seems that her military achievements Didn't lie, is a powerful character."
Xu Qing just cut it out, but also restrained his voice and said: "It's just a simple Zhao countryman."
When Xiao Ye heard this, he asked curiously, "Brother Xu's tone, do you know her?"
Xu Qing nodded, and roughly explained to Xiao Ye what happened just now.
Xiao Ye was slightly taken aback when he heard it, and he never thought that a woman who was originally thought to be heroic and valiant would have such a side.
Then when Xiao Ye looked at the woman, the woman's lips moved, Xiao Ye touched Xu Qing and said: "Brother Xu, she is talking to you."
Xu Qing wondered: "What did you say? I didn't hear it."
Xiao Ye said: "Using lip language."
Xu Qing asked: "What did she say?"
Xiao Ye said: "Chu people who speak ill of people behind their backs."
Xu Qing turned her head to look at Long Binger who was opposite, but she turned her head and looked away, as if what happened just now had nothing to do with her.
Fortunately, there was a Xiao Ye who could understand lip language sitting next to him, otherwise he might not have known about being scolded behind his back.
Xu Qing looked at Xiao Ye and said, "Brother Xiao, tell me, what do the simple Zhao people say with their lips?"
Xiao Ye's lips moved a few times, Xu Qing engraved Xiao Ye's movements in his mind, imitating Xiao Ye's appearance, looking at the woman, his lips also moved.
Then when the woman looked at her, Xu Qing's lips also moved towards her.
Seeing this scene, the woman immediately shook the chopsticks in her hand angrily, but quickly covered up the sullen expression on her face, and moved her lips again.
"Hateful Chu people!"
With Xiao Ye's translation and guidance, Xu Qing also responded.
"Stupid Zhao people!"
...
Although the faces of the two were as usual, and they didn't even move much, they had secretly completed dozens of rounds of confrontation.
You come and I go, very intense.
Because of the fierce confrontation with Xu Qing, although Long Binger still maintained a calm expression on the bright side, her face involuntarily became flushed because of the several defeats in the confrontation with Xu Qing.
An envoy from Zhao State looked at the deputy envoy who was still calm but blushing, and asked in confusion, "Vice envoy, what's wrong with you?"
Hearing the words of others, Long Bing'er took a few deep breaths calmly, finished adjusting her breath, faded the flush on her face, and said indifferently: "It's nothing."
