Xiao Min stood on the deck and saw Zhao Tong at a glance, and immediately became furious.
For some reason, the unpredictable expression of the young prince of Song Dynasty always made her feel unhappy.
How could anyone be more polite, humble in speech, and knowledgeable than Dashi Linya!
This Zhao Tong is clearly a dandy. Daliao is in short supply of such people, especially the royal family. Even if he is good at poetry...
When she thought of the poem, Xiao Min's face suddenly became unnatural, bah, what's better, he's not frivolous and dissolute, he's not a good person!
Zhao Tong looked Xiao Min up and down on the bow of the boat. This girl was still dressing up as a man, but with her smoky eyebrows, bright eyes and white teeth, and a jade-like color, she looked like a woman at first glance. I really didn't know what the use of her men's clothes was.
Xiao Min noticed Zhao Tong's gaze, and couldn't help but raise her slender and beautiful eyebrows, and said loudly: "Young Master Zhao is so punctual, I never expected it."
Zhao Tong nodded. The young lady was as arrogant as ever, always trying to squeeze on him. Now that she was in her position, she probably had a lot of tricks.
When Xiao Min saw Zhao Tong just nodding but not speaking, with a serious look on his face, Xiao Min became more and more angry. He secretly thought that he really didn't know what Dashi Linya was thinking, but he actually cooperated with this young prince who looked so helpless. If the young prince really went north to meet those Jurchens, would he be so frightened that he dared not move? She hummed softly: "Please also ask Mr. Zhao to cross the boat."
Zhao Tong said: "Where is Lin Ya?"
Xiao Min said: "Lin Ya has a hard time escaping. It is estimated that he will not arrive until tomorrow morning."
Zhao Tong said "Oh" and looked at the ship on the other side slowly approaching. He turned around and said to Lei Huhu, who had been standing respectfully: "I, the king, will go over and do everything as previously arranged."
Lei Laohu said with a flattering smile: "My lord, please rest assured, my subordinates are always careful in doing things, and I will ensure that my lord is satisfied."
Zhao Tong nodded: "Just be cautious!"
After a while, the ship got closer and closer. The two old men behind Xiao Min put a wide wooden board over and placed it in the middle of the ship. Huang Gu said: "Sir, I will go forward."
Xiao Min sneered in his heart when he saw this. The ship was quite high and the sea breeze was blowing. Even if there were wooden planks placed on it, ordinary people would inevitably tremble and be frightened. They would look ugly even if they couldn't help it.
Zhao Tong glanced at Xiao Min from the side of the ship, looked at the wooden board that was only one step wide, and sighed: "I am very scared."
Xiao Min blinked, feeling secretly happy, just waiting to see this hateful little prince make a fool of himself.
Zhao Tong added: "I usually read miscellaneous books and stories, and it says that if you encounter this kind of situation, you can probably just close your eyes and not look at it, and you will get through it safely."
Xiao Min thought to herself, this young prince must have become stupid in reading. How can he tell the direction when he closes his eyes? I'm afraid he has to be rescued by his subordinates when he falls. Wouldn't it be even more embarrassing?
Zhao Tong closed his eyes and walked onto the board, with Huang Gu in front and Ouyang Bei behind. He walked very slowly, and his face was as white as the white foam on the waves.
Xiao Min stared at him closely, and saw that he was indeed swaying step by step, but he never deviated from the board, and he couldn't help but feel worried secretly.
Just when Zhao Tong was walking halfway, his foot suddenly slipped. Xiao Min's eyes widened immediately, but he saw that Zhao Tong was clearly about to fall, but for some reason he steadied himself after shaking a few times, and then walked over. .
"Sure enough, this trick in the book is useful. Emperor Zhenzong once said that the book has its own golden house, and the book has its own beauty like jade. You must not deceive the younger generations." Zhao Tong opened his eyes and looked at Xiao Min with a smile.
"This doesn't seem to be the explanation!" Xiao Min felt that Zhao Tong couldn't even understand the words of his ancestors. It was really hard to explain.
"Why not? If I hadn't read a lot, how would I have thought of closing my eyes?" Zhao Tong shook his head.
"You!" Xiao Min couldn't think of any words to defend him, so he only said that the other party was using strong words. As for walking across the wooden plank, he was probably brave. If he wasn't brave, he wouldn't have dared to come to Liao Kingdom to do such a big thing.
At this time, she already knew the whole plan of Zhao Tong and Yelu Dashi, but when she thought about it, Xiao Min suddenly felt that this young prince was not entirely without merit. At least, this kind of courage was unparalleled among the Daliao royal family. How many people can reach it.
"Young Master Zhao, you have now entered the realm of Daliao. Please don't mention the word "I am the king" again." Xiao Min looked at him and said.
Zhao Tong nodded: "I was negligent."
Xiao Min said: "Master Zhao, have you thought of a pseudonym? The character Zhao must never be used. Lin Ya's identity information is all ready, except for the name."
Zhao Tong said: "That's Yuan Yi."
Xiao Min frowned when he heard this: "The Yuan surname is rare in the Central Plains, but I heard that there is a Yuan family in Xixia."
Zhao Tong smiled and said nothing, and the ship moved forward through the waves.
After an unknown amount of time, I could see the lights of Laizhou in the distance, and two ships were approaching on patrol.
An old man behind Xiao Min said: "It's a boat coming to Shuiying in Zhouzhou."
The two boats approached, shouting with bows and spears in hand. Another old man stepped forward and shouted in Khitan: "Princess Yanmin has returned from entering the sea, please give way quickly."
The two ships on the opposite side observed the ship for a few moments, and the soldiers saluted at the bow and made way for a passage.
Zhao Tong glanced at Xiao Min. As Xiao Min is a princess, she must have a very special relationship with the Liao royal family. Otherwise, even if her father is the king, she will not be a prince. A daughter who is not a prince can only be a county princess, not a princess. It's just Yan Min...this word "Yan", my dear, you are so brave!
Xiao Min put her hands on her hands, turned around, turned her back to Zhao Tao and said, "My father, the King of Liaoxi County, served as Tongzhi Privy Councilor and the King of the South Court during his lifetime."
Zhao Tong remained silent and watched the young lady show off.
Xiao Min continued: "My father passed away early, and the Queen Mother took pity on him and adopted him as his goddaughter, giving him this title."
Zhao Tong thought for a while, then suddenly smiled and said: "Princess Princess? She seems to be a good match."
Xiao Min was stunned when he heard this, turned around and said angrily: "What are Mr. Yuan talking about?"
Zhao Tong smiled and said: "I am talking about Dashi Linya. He is the eighth generation grandson of Taizu of the Qin Dynasty. Although the clan is far away, he is still of royal blood. Could it be that... the princess thinks he is not a good match?"
Xiao Min's face softened slightly when he heard this, but Zhao Tong said again: "Could it be that the princess is thinking about other things?"
Xiao Min's face suddenly turned red, and she was so embarrassed that she couldn't say anything.
The ship docked and everyone got on board. There were Liao guards waiting for them. They entered Laizhou after a while and went straight to a house in the east city.
Laizhou City is not big, so this house is considered ordinary, but it is wider than most houses.
After everyone had finished eating and drinking, Xiao Min said: "Master Yuan has a rest, I will not disturb you. I will talk about the important events when Lin Ya arrives tomorrow morning."
Zhao Tong said: "Liaodong is completely lost now?"
Xiao Min frowned and said, "Exactly."
Zhao Tong held his hands and said: "But it's a good thing!"
The young lady said angrily: "What did you say?"
Before Zhao Tong could speak, he suddenly heard an unusually cheerful voice coming from outside the door: "Young Master has great foresight and far-sightedness. It's really extraordinary. Dashi came late. I hope you won't be surprised."
