"Run, I told you to run!"
"You idiot, if you don't ask around, whose things did you steal?"
Liu Bang pinned him down and grabbed both of his hands with one hand. The man was so small that he couldn't resist at all.
Coupled with the anger that had been accumulated just now, it was all turned into fists and hit the man on the back.
But this little dwarf has some backbone. He took so many punches and didn't even say a word.
The Imperial Guards who followed up saw this, and it was rare to see His Majesty the Emperor being so majestic. While they were on guard, they let the Emperor do what he wanted.
I don’t know how long the fight lasted, but Liu Bang’s fists were all red. Then he snatched the hairpin and looked at the man on the ground:
"It's OK to rob. If you can rob based on your ability, you will be considered powerful."
"But now I've snatched it back, what do you mean?"
"Not only do you people from the Jin Kingdom have no money, but you don't care if you don't have any money. You also have no shame. You are really a barbarian."
He cursed for a while, but saw that the man didn't even respond, and he felt strange:
Could it be that he was beaten to death by himself?
I touched the man's body with my foot, but saw him burying his face on the ground, flicking his hand and opening his foot.
Not dead, not dead but not even able to say a word.
But soon, the man began to speak out.
"嘤嘤嘤~"
It turned out that I was crying.
"You fucking have the nerve to cry!"
Liu Bang kicked him on the butt again: "Such a big man doesn't even have a seed!"
He was extremely contemptuous. The peace talks hadn't started yet, so he couldn't really take this man's life.
After putting away the hairpin, he turned around to leave, but heard the man shout:
"you come back!"
Looking back... the short man actually grabbed a handful of mud and threw it towards him.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly. Even so, his face was still stained a lot...but at least he didn't get blinded.
This dwarf's behavior also shocked several forbidden soldiers. Fortunately, the emperor did not make any mistakes. Otherwise, their heads would not be as strong as those of the civil servants.
"I'll fuck you..."
Before he finished speaking, he was like a loach, taking advantage of this gap, snatched the hairpin back, and slid in along the alley.
Liu Bang patted the dust on his head and took a look. After all, the soles of his feet still didn't obey his orders.
After going around several times and reaching the bridge above Anshui Gate, the man suddenly stopped.
He was out of breath, and this man was probably very tired.
No matter what you say today, you have to scrape off a layer of his skin.
He had already rehearsed the action of beating someone up in his mind, but he didn't expect him to turn around and take the initiative to hand over the hairpin.
"You idiot, what other ways are you thinking of harming me?"
The dwarf made a silent gesture towards him, and to show his sincerity, he threw the hairpin directly to him.
Then he pointed forward and motioned for Liu Bang to come and take a look.
Always pay attention to his movements. If this person makes the slightest move, Liu Bang is confident that he can take him down.
Slowly tilted his head and looked in the direction he pointed...
But I saw a large ship parked not far from the bridge where the water gate came in.
There are no boats, there are boats everywhere.
Just looking from here, I can just see the appearance of the ship clearly.
There were four people sitting on the deck, two of them were playing chess, one was watching from the side, and the other was making tea for the other three.
"We have no deep grudges. I have returned the hairpin to you, so there will be no more entanglements."
Liu Bang didn't speak. He knew one of the people over there.
After the incident with Emperor Roufu last time, Zhao Shi specially asked the emperor to hold a banquet, and the guests at the banquet were the Zhao family who had followed the southern crossing.
Thinking that unity would also appease the clan, Liu Bang agreed and met some of the royal relatives in the palace.
The one watching from the side was Zhao Shicheng, the great-great-grandson of Emperor Taizong of Song Dynasty and the son of Zhao Zhongshi, King Rong of Chu.
Like Zhao Shi, they all belong to the lineage of Zhao Yuanfen, the fourth son of Emperor Taizong and King of Shang. Speaking of which, although this man is only one year older than Zhao Gou, Zhao Gou calls him uncle.
At this time, he did not return to his home in Shanyin, but was still staying in Lin'an.
The dwarf looked at him and said:
"I recognize three of these four people, but I don't recognize the one watching the chess game. Now we can exchange ideas. You can tell me the identity of that person."
Liu Bang rolled his eyes at him: "When did I say that I wanted to know their identities?"
The dwarf lowered his head and smiled, but it hurt the wound where Liu Bang had hit him. However, he still seemed very confident:
"Do you know where this is?"
"where?"
"Here..." The short man pointed to the house behind a big willow tree on the bank, "Did you see that word?"
"Si...Sifang, Sifang Pavilion?"
"You are from Song Dynasty, how come you can't read as well as me!"
The dwarf shook his head and mocked, and then continued: "The chess player on the left is the younger brother of Li Qianshun, the previous emperor of Xixia. I have met the uncle of the current emperor when he was sent to Dajin as an envoy."
"The chess player on the right is..." He paused, "He is my deputy envoy from Dajin to the south this time, Xiao Yi from the Liao Dynasty."
Liu Bang frowned more and more, and together with Zhao Shicheng, the clan member of the Song Dynasty, there were actually people from three countries gathered here.
The short man looked at his expression and knew that he really knew that person. In this case, that person was most likely from Song Dynasty.
"As for the tea maker... did you look at the tea he made?"
"What's wrong?"
"You people in the Song Dynasty pay attention to tender tea. On the contrary, we are in the cold north, but many people like this kind of rough tea... This tea is strong and astringent. The whole world is producing this tea, and they like it." The only one is Southwest Dali."
Liu Bang looked at him: "You Jin Kingdom envoys come to meet people from other countries, aren't you afraid that I will report this matter and cause chaos to your Jin Kingdom?"
The dwarf smiled and said: "The two countries of Jin and Song are now in peace talks. I just expressed my attitude. We, the Jin Dynasty, are wholeheartedly seeking peace... and you, the Song Dynasty, as far as we know, also want peace. .”
"Sooner or later we will make peace. This is our sincerity."
"You can summon the imperial army, and at least you can meet with the people above your Zhao Guan family. In this way, you should know what it means for the Song people among the four to be here."
"And since I have seen this scene, I have the confidence to deal with him. On the contrary, your Song country... can you still afford chaos?"
Liu Bang paused, turned around and left without any hesitation.
Instead, the dwarf's smile froze on his face.
"I didn't ask you to say it, you have to say it yourself."
"I'll spare your life this time, just in exchange for telling me about their identities."
There is no need for him to talk to this Jin man... The Jin man's sincerity is based on the good relationship between the two countries.
And Liu Bang himself knew that it was impossible for the two countries to form a good relationship.
He had taken advantage again, so there was no point in telling them the news.
On the contrary, Zhao Shicheng's identity is so sensitive, and he appears in such a sensitive place...
Tomorrow I will officially receive the golden man. After this matter is settled, I still have to clean the house.
The dwarf didn't seem to expect that this man would be like this. He lingered on the spot for a long time before spitting out two words from his mouth:
"Scoundrel."
