His eyes turned back to Liaozhongjing. That night, a refined and elegant villa outside the city was brightly lit and bustling. Luxurious carriages kept coming down the mountain, and dignitaries from the Liao Kingdom entered the villa one after another. Yang Peng and the eldest princess Yelu Guanyin came together and met Xiao Tianzuo who was also attending the dinner in front of the villa.
Xiao Tianzuo came up to say hello with a smile on his face: "Your Highness the Princess!" Yelu Guanyin responded lightly: "Your Majesty the Privy Council!" Xiao Tianzuo glanced at Yang Peng who was standing next to Yelu Guanyin, and said with a smile: " Boss Jin is here too?" Yang Peng nodded with a smile and said, "Your Majesty the Privy Council!" Xiao Tianzuo chuckled and said teasingly: "I thought it wouldn't be long before I changed my name and called Boss Jin my consort!" Yang Peng smiled slightly, and Yelu Guanyin looked very happy.
The three people walked into the villa while talking. The servant who was in charge of welcoming guests at the entrance of the villa saw the three of them coming hand in hand. He quickly raised his voice and sang a promise: "Her Royal Highness the Princess is here! The Privy Councilor Xiao Xiao is here!" Because he did not know Yang. Peng, so he did not notify Yang Peng's name. Several middle-aged people came towards me. Judging from their appearance, they must be bureaucrats who came to celebrate their birthdays. Xiao Tianzuo quickly apologized, walked over, and started chatting. Yang Peng and Yelu Guanyin walked towards the backyard.
When I came to the backyard, I saw bright lights and countless guests gathered together in groups to chat. There were nobles and bureaucrats, wealthy businessmen, and some young ones who looked like they should be so-called talented people. flow. The beautiful maids shuttled among the crowd like butterflies in flowers, arranging banquets.
Yang Peng was a little surprised and asked: "Why are so many people here?" Yelu Guanyin smiled and said: "Although my sister-in-law has long been living in seclusion, she has extraordinary influence in the government and the public. Therefore, every year, everyone rushes to celebrate my sister-in-law's birthday banquet. !”
Yang Peng smiled and said, "My little sister said one thing less." Yelu Guanyin looked at Yang Peng in confusion. Yang Peng smiled and said: "Didn't the little sister say that she is a great beauty? I think many people here are here just because of this!" Yelu Guanyin smiled and nodded, " You are right, many people should come here for this."
"Niece Xian, you're finally here, I'm still looking for you everywhere!" A bold voice suddenly came over. The two of them followed the sound and saw the kind old man Yelu Chun striding over with a smile. Yelu Guanyin quickly saluted and said: "Uncle." Yang Peng cupped his fists and said: "Marshal!"
Yelu Chun waved his hand angrily, "Calling Du Marshal is too offensive. You can also call me cousin!" Yelu Guanyin looked at Yang Peng longingly. Yang Peng chuckled, "Uncle!" Yelu Guanyin laughed, and Yelu Chun also laughed, and said with a big laugh: "Okay, okay! This call of uncle makes my old bones feel very comfortable! Yong San, you have really accumulated good deeds in your last life. That’s why I’m able to win the favor of my niece in this life! I can say that it’s hard to find another niece like me in the world!”
Yelu Guanyin said: "Eldest brother is also unmatched!" Yelu Chun laughed loudly, "Yes, yes, so you are a perfect match! I couldn't be more happy when I saw it!" Yang Peng didn't know what to say. What? He simply didn’t speak, but Yelv Guanyin looked very happy.
Yelu Chun looked serious, looked around, and said to the two of them: "Let's go to a secluded place to talk." Then the three of them walked towards an empty pavilion on the left. When they came to the pavilion, the three of them sat down around the stone table. Yelu Chun said: "I got a tip that Xiao Tianzuo seems to be planning to take action at the hunting meeting! The Northern Army is making secret preparations!"
Yelu Guanyin smiled coldly, "He is looking for death!" Yelu Chun nodded with deep understanding, "Yes! With our two armies, a Northern army cannot make a big splash! But our previous plan requires Just make some adjustments. What I mean is to mobilize a large army to surround the entire hunting scene. After Xiao Tianzuo is eliminated, use absolute force to force the Northern Army to submit. There should be no problem. Then quickly reorganize the Northern Army. , in this way we can ensure control of the Northern Army."
Yelu Guanyin thought and nodded. Yang Peng frowned and said: "Since we can detect Xiao Tianzuo's movements, I am afraid that Xiao Tianzuo can also detect our movements. If he is prepared, I am afraid that the raid will turn into a violent conflict between the two armies, and the consequences will be dire. Expect it!”
Yelu Chun nodded and said: "What Yong San said is absolutely true! So we must do a good job of confidentiality and prepare for the worst case scenario!" He looked at Yang Peng: "Does Yong San have any suggestions?" Yang Peng said: "I think There is no need to do too much before the Field Hunting Conference. My sister’s Dongying Army is just east of the capital, very close, and there is no time to mobilize before Field Hunting! Therefore, don’t do anything for the Dongying Army for the time being, and only tell those who are trustworthy. The generals asked them to prepare in advance so that when the order is given, the army can be mobilized immediately! Apart from that, there is no need for extra actions! In this way, it will be difficult for Xiao Tian’s left side to detect clues! "
Yelu Chun and Yelu Guanyin nodded in agreement. Yelu Chun said: "Yong San said it very well!" Then he frowned and asked: "Then how should my army move? The camp is hundreds of miles away to the west. If we wait until before the hunting, it will be too late!" Yang Peng said with a smile, "This is easy to handle. Hasn't the Song Army invaded the Xijing Road now? We can use this as an excuse to ask the emperor for orders. The situation on Xijing Road is critical. Please give the Queen Mother permission to lead the Xiying army to rescue Xijing Road. ..." Yelu Chun's eyes lit up and he clapped his hands and said, "Wonderful! With such an excuse, not to mention that the Queen Mother will not be suspicious, it is Xiao Tianzuo He will definitely not be suspicious, he must be eager for me to lead the army and leave!" He looked at Yang Peng and praised: "Yong San, you are really wise and brave!"
Yang Peng smiled and clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, uncle!" Yelu Guanyin looked at Yang Peng, her beautiful eyes full of joy. Yelu Chun continued: "After the Queen Mother gives the order, I will return to the Western Camp. I will lead the army to the west first, and then make a secret circle to enter the vicinity of the capital. When the field hunting meeting is held, I will join with my niece's army to eliminate Xiao Tianzuo. , and then ask Your Majesty to entrust you with important military and state affairs! The great things will be done!"
Yang Peng frowned slightly, as if he was worried about something. Yelv Guanyin noticed Yang Peng's expression and asked, "What are you worried about, brother?"
Yang Peng frowned and said: "From the current point of view, our plan is perfect and there should be no accidents. However, I am worried about whether Xixia will take any action during this period? Once Xixia launches an attack at this time, things will be serious. Got it!"
Both of them also became worried. Yelu Chun said: "I don't think it is such a coincidence. Besides, Xixia is still undergoing military and political reforms, and there is no sign of restarting the expedition." Yang Peng nodded, "I hope everything will be fine." All goes well, God bless Daliao." Yelv Guanyin also hopes so. The three of them were silent, with worries and longing lingering in their chests.
At this time, there was a sudden commotion outside. The three of them couldn't help but look outside and saw everyone gathering towards the waterside pavilion in the distance. In the corridor behind the waterside pavilion, a woman in plain clothes walked towards the waterside pavilion accompanied by several maids. They were far apart, and it was night, so the light wasn't very good, so he couldn't see clearly, but in the haze, Yang Peng felt that she must be a peerless beauty!
Yelu Guanyin smiled and said, "My sister-in-law is here, let's go there quickly." The three people immediately left the pavilion and walked towards the waterside pavilion in front. The waterside pavilion is very large and can seat more than a hundred people. However, because there are too many people coming to congratulate birthdays, only people with a certain status can sit in the waterside pavilion. Most of the other people can only sit by the lake outside the waterside pavilion. Take a seat. The water pavilion is connected to the shore on one side and water on three sides. The moon is bright in the night sky and the lake is sparkling. The environment is very beautiful.
Yang Peng, Yelu Guanyin, and Yelu Chun entered the waterside pavilion. Yelu Chun chuckled and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time. My little sister is even more charming than before! This brother of mine is getting old!" The woman smiled brightly and lightly opened her red lips: "Chun I'm not old!" The voice was gentle and touching, touching the heart. In today's terms, the voice was very sexy and touching the heart.
"Mei'er wishes my sister-in-law eternal youth!" Yelu Guanyin stepped forward and bowed. The woman looked at Yelu Guanyin, her beautiful eyes were full of charm, and the woman's charming charm was fully demonstrated in her! "Mei'er is becoming more and more heroic! Every time I see you, my sister-in-law is very happy!" His eyes turned to Yang Peng behind Yelu Guanyin, his expression moved, and he asked with a smile: "This must be that A great Korean businessman who shot a golden sparrow with an arrow, right?"
Yang Peng hurriedly stepped forward, clasped his fists and said, "I've met the emperor's aunt!" The woman smiled slightly, "Just call me sister-in-law like Mei'er."
Yang Peng felt a little depressed. To be honest, it was difficult for him to regard the charming and charming woman in front of him as an elder. "Sister-in-law." Yang Peng called. The woman squinted her eyes and smiled, looking at Yelu Guanyin, "Mei'er, your husband is very good! You finally have someone to support you for life!" At this point, there was a trace of melancholy in her eyes. Color, sighing softly. A soft sigh, like a complaint or a cry, moved people's hearts. I wonder if she thought of her own life experience, so the melancholy lingered in her heart and could not be resolved.
The woman raised her head and smiled: "You can just sit down, you don't have to be formal here." Yelu Chun smiled and said: "I won't be polite to my little sister." After saying that, he walked to the left and sat down. He has this qualification based on his status. Yelv Guanyin and Yang Peng bowed to the woman, then walked to sit down below Yelu Chun.
At this time, people kept coming in to wish the woman birthday. Yang Peng looked across and saw Xiao Tian, who was sitting on the right side, looking at him gloomily. However, when Yang Peng looked over, his expression changed instantly and turned into a kind smiling face, which made Yang Peng I can't help but wonder if I saw it wrong just now?
Xiao Tianzuo smiled and nodded, and Yang Peng nodded in response. Yelv Guanyin next to him snorted coldly and whispered: "The guy who hides his sword in his smile!" Yang Peng smiled. He turned his head and glanced at the beautiful woman above who was receiving congratulations from everyone, and asked curiously: "You still don't know what my sister-in-law's name is?" Yelutri said: "My sister-in-law's original name was Yelutmo, but she named herself Han My name is Yelu Hanyu. My sister-in-law likes calligraphy and painting, and there are very few calligraphy treasures circulating in the market, all of which are signed by Yelu Hanyu."
Yang Peng touched his chin and thought: "Han Yu, this name is cold and aloof, but it also smells of self-pity and sorrow!" Yelv Guanyin sighed, "Hey, I'm afraid this is the portrayal of my sister-in-law's heart!" Turning around to look He glanced at Yelu Hanyu and said hopefully: "I hope my sister-in-law can find the lover she has been waiting for!" Yang Peng smiled bitterly and shook his head, "The most painful thing in life is to be alone!"
Xiao Tianzuo stood up holding the wine glass and said loudly: "Everyone, let's congratulate the emperor on her birthday and wish her eternal beauty!" Everyone stood up one after another, holding the wine glasses and said: "I wish the emperor her eternal beauty!" Yelu Hanyu smiled slightly, picked up the wine glass, "Thank you all!" He then covered himself with his long sleeves and drank the wine in the glass, and everyone drank the wine one after another.
Yelu Hanyu put down his wine glass and glanced at the female attendant standing aside. The latter understood and immediately raised her voice: "Come on, sing and dance!" The melodious music sounded immediately, and a group of young men and women dressed in traditional Khitan costumes filed in. , and then danced gracefully, which was completely different from the dance of the Central Plains and full of grassland style. Yang Peng couldn't help but be immersed in it, feeling that it seemed to be telling about the love between men and women.
At the end of the song and dance, the dancers gathered into a huge flower and held out a beautiful dancer. The dancer knelt down and congratulated: "I wish the queen eternal youth!" Yelu Hanyu was very happy and turned to look at the girl next to him. The female attendant smiled and said: "Is this all your idea? You took the trouble, I like it very much!" The female attendant looked very excited.
The dancers all retreated. Xiao Tianzuo said: "Speaking of this music and dance, the history of our Khitan clan is no less than that of the Han people in the Central Plains! The styles of the two are different and each has its own characteristics. However, if we trace the roots, they arrive at the same destination by different paths. They both originated in ancient times. Ritual dance!" A fat official immediately flattered him: "Your Majesty the Privy Councilor is so knowledgeable, what he said opened our eyes!"
Xiao Tianzuo smiled and waved his hand, "Thank you, thank you!" He raised his head and glanced at Chen Xiao, "I heard that Korea is also a nation that is good at singing and dancing. I wonder if Boss Jin can let us see it!" Some bored people started talking. Cheered up.
Xiao Tianzuo smiled and said: "I may disappoint the Privy Councilor. I have been busy with business all year round and have little involvement in singing and dancing." Xiao Tianzuo did not intend to let Yang Peng go, and said with a smile: "Boss Jin, Mrs. I’m so humble! I don’t believe that Boss Jin really doesn’t know how to sing and dance! Today is the birthday of the emperor’s aunt. Boss Jin doesn’t look at the monk’s face but the Buddha’s face, so he should be rewarded with this face!”
At this time, everyone could see that Xiao Tianzuo was clearly trying to squeeze Yang Peng and wanted him to make a fool of himself. Many people looked at Yang Peng with gloating. These people were originally jealous of Yang Peng's favor with Yelu Guanyin. Now that they finally had the opportunity to make Yang Peng look embarrassed, they were naturally particularly excited. "Boss Jin, it's really outrageous to be so pretentious on the occasion of the emperor's birthday!" someone said loudly.
Yelu Guanyin glared at the man and said angrily: "Brother, if you don't understand, you just don't understand. Who are you and how dare you shout here!" When the beautiful Yelu Guanyin is angry, she is like an angry tigress, which is very scary. Yes, the man quickly shrank back and did not dare to say a word.
Yang Peng chuckled and patted the back of Yelu Guanyin's hand under the table. Yelu Guanyin cast a gentle look at Yang Peng. The contrast between violence and gentleness is so great that those who see it can't help but sigh and feel infinite jealousy. They really don't understand what is so good about that Goryeo businessman that he can win such unique favor from Her Royal Highness the Princess. ?
Yang Peng looked at Xiao Tianzuo and said with a smile: "I have been doing business in the Central Plains for many years, and I am unfamiliar with the songs and dances of the Goryeo Dynasty. However, I have dabbled in the songs and dances of the Song Dynasty. Since you are so enthusiastic, I would like to offer you a piece of poetry from the Song Dynasty. Well. Firstly, I wish to congratulate the royal aunt on her birthday, and secondly, I want to express my affection for the eldest princess." Yang Peng had already made up his mind to stimulate those boring people.
Many people sneered, waiting to see Yang Peng make a fool of himself. Yelu Guanyin frowned and whispered: "Brother, don't worry about those people!" Yang Peng patted the back of Yelu Guanyin's hand to express comfort. He stood up, walked to the middle, cupped his fists towards Yelu Hanyu who was sitting at the top, and said, "I'm making a fool of myself!" Yelu Hanyu smiled slightly, "I don't know that you write poetry, how about I ghostwrite it for you?" Yang Peng said, "Thank you, sister-in-law."
Yang Peng walked to the middle of everyone, thinking about looking at the sky, and said slowly, ""The Green Jade Case·Yuan Xiu" The east wind blows thousands of trees and flowers, and even blows down, and the stars are like rain. The fragrance of BMW carvings fills the road. The sound of phoenix flute Moving, the light of the jade pot turned, and fish and dragons danced all night. Moths and golden strands of snow willows, and laughter filled with dark fragrance. The crowd searched for him thousands of times, but suddenly looked back, and that person was there, in the dimly lit place."
When a poem ended, the scene was completely silent. Everyone was recalling the poignant and beautiful artistic conception and couldn't help themselves.
Yang Peng took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions, clasped his fists towards Yelu Hanyu and said, "I wonder if the emperor is satisfied?" Only then did everyone come back to their senses one after another. Many people couldn't help but exclaimed: "I didn't expect such a touching thing. Poetry!”
Xiao Tianzuo said, this is not the right time, how about playing another song. Yang Peng said. I am writing a poem for my sister-in-law. It may not be suitable for the occasion. Please don’t take it off.
Yang Peng was walking around in the lobby, and suddenly walked up to Ye Qi Hanyu, picked up a glass of wine, and shouted, "The courtyard is full of fragrance, the spring is hidden in the small pavilion." "The spring is hidden in the small pavilion. The hall is infinitely deep and quiet. The seal incense burns out, and the sun shadows the curtain hooks. It is better to plant Jiangmei with your hands, so why bother to climb the tower near the water. No one is there, it is lonely and muddy, how can it be in Yangzhou. I have always known that the rhyme is better than the rain. Borrowing, I can't bear the soft wind. Whose horizontal flute can play the heavy sorrow. Don't hate the fragrance disappearing and the snow diminishing, you must believe in the truth and sweep away the traces of love. In an unspeakable place, the good night and the pale moon, the sparse shadows are still romantic."
Yelu Hanyu lowered his head and tried his best to calm down the turbulent emotions. After a while, he raised his head and returned to normal. However, there was still a trace of excitement in his beautiful eyes, and there was still a trace of tears in the corners of his eyes. . "The poem "The Good Nephew" puts all the songs to shame!"
"The emperor's aunt has won the award." Yelu Hanyu asked curiously: "I wonder who actually wrote this poem?" Yang Peng said, "I just did it. I would like to ask the emperor's aunt to comment on it."
Yelu Hanyu looked thoughtful, not knowing what he was thinking about.
Yang Peng returned to his seat, and Yelu Guanyin threw herself into Yang Peng's arms regardless of the public, and took the initiative to offer a sweet kiss. Some people looked at it with ecstasy, but most of them showed kind smiles. Yelv Guanyin stared at Yang Peng and said excitedly: "You killed me! From now on, I will miss you all the time!" Yang Peng laughed. "
Boss Jin shoots the golden bird's head with an arrow to win the favor of the princess. This matter has now spread throughout the capital. This shows that Boss Jin has excellent archery skills! I wonder if we are lucky enough to see Boss Jin’s peerless archery skills? "Xiao Tianzuo said.
What happened after all, let’s see what happens next.
