Shen Cha didn't know how thick-skinned Duan's envoy was. What she knew was that when Jin Jing took Mei Lin out, not only did they not bring Yerunan and Qi Zhifeng back, they themselves were entangled and unable to escape. body.
"General, how about... let me go out and take a look?" Mei Zhu looked at Shen Cha who was sipping tea and not paying any attention to what happened outside. "It's still snowing outside. Military Advisor..."
"Wait a minute, don't be in a hurry." Putting down the tea bowl, Shen Cha closed his eyes and listened quietly to the sound coming from the door. "Listen carefully. Do you notice anything is wrong?"
"Something's not right?" Mei Zhu calmed down and followed Shen Cha's example, closing her eyes to listen. After listening for a long time, she suddenly opened her eyes, "Why...how...well, it sounds so lively, But it seems like only one person is talking?”
"This is what I find so amazing. When we were upstairs, we thought there was a quarrel below, so we came out to find out. However, when we listened carefully to the sound, we found that only one person was talking the whole time." Shen Cha chuckled lightly, "The envoy of the Duan clan is quite interesting. He can talk so lively to himself. In my opinion, even the most popular celebrities in the world are not as good as him. Listen to this. With such a small voice and accent, he really can't do it without ten years of skills. If this person were put in a theater, I'm afraid he would become famous in a short time."
"How can any general bury people like this?" Mei Zhu shook her head, "After all, he is also an envoy, so it's not good to practice like this."
"I'm just telling the truth about whether to practice or not." Shen Cha smiled, "It's just that he talked very lively by himself, but what he said was not common Mandarin, nor was it the language of their Duan family. I listened for a long time , and I didn’t hear anything about it. Does any of you know where this is coming from? Do you know what he is talking about?”
"Report to the general." The waiter bowed slightly, "It's Sanskrit. My mother at home respects the Buddha, so I can occasionally hear one or two sentences. A stupid person can understand those one or two sentences, but no more can't be understood. "
"Sanskrit? Duan paid homage to the Buddha. It is only natural that the envoy can speak Sanskrit." Shen Cha nodded slightly towards the waiter, thanked him, and then asked Mei Zhu to go and look around with satisfaction. The old shopkeeper with a worried face invited him over. When the old shopkeeper arrived, she smiled and said, "Please have a seat."
"Don't dare, don't dare. I can just stand here. If the general has anything to do, just avoid giving orders." The shopkeeper saluted Chen Cha, "General, you want breakfast? I ordered them to bring it."
"Don't worry about that, let's put it away first." Shen Cha waved his hand and looked at the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, I would like to ask, what is the name of this envoy of the Duan family, what is his official position, and whether he is the Duan family. Children."
"General, this villain is..."
"Hey!" Shen Cha interrupted what the shopkeeper was about to say, "Shopkeeper, please don't be humble and don't hide it. What kind of person you are and what you know. You know it and so do I. Those high-sounding words There’s no need to say any more, just answer my questions.”
"Yes!" The shopkeeper knew that his identity had been seen through by General Zhenguo, so he no longer tried to hide it, cleared his throat and said, "General, this envoy of the Duan family is indeed a descendant of the Duan family, and his background is not small. Duan Yu is the legitimate second son of Duan Yuqi, Marquis of Lian. As for his official position, as far as I know, this second son has not served as an official, so he has no official position or position."
"He is actually the son of Marquis Lian. It is not an insult to Marquis Lian's family to make such a fuss."
"General, have you heard of Marquis Lian?"
"Yes, I have heard of it." Shen Cha nodded, "Not only have I heard of it, but the name of Marquis Lian is well known to me."
Duan Yuqi, the Marquis of Lian, was a maverick in the Duan family, both in the court and in the Duan family clan. However, he was senior and King Duan and his sons and nephews could not control him. Whatever happens to him, I can only let him do whatever he wants.
This Marquis Lian is really a wonderful man. He has made people worry-free since he was a child. The Duan family advocates Buddhism, and almost everyone in the country worships Buddha. But this Marquis Duan is a Taoist, regardless of whether he goes to court or not. dress up. On weekdays, when I am bored, I still set up a fortune-telling stall in the downtown area of Dali, pretending to tell the fortunes of passers-by.
It is not that no one in the Duan family has impeached him, but in the final analysis, it is a trivial matter that is innocuous. Prince Duan personally went to Lianhou's mansion and persuaded him in a good voice, telling him not to do this. He really liked fortune telling, and in his own mansion Just play around here, don't go to the street and let the people see it, it really doesn't look like it.
King Duan condescended to persuade him, and Lian Hou also wanted to give him enough face. He went to court honestly and stayed at home honestly, but he didn't do it for two days. In less than half a month, The old ways have emerged again.
Then, after repeating the cycle several times, King Duan saw that he was really powerless and simply gave up. If there are still people who want to impeach the Lian Hou, they will send this person to persuade them, but the result is always unsatisfactory. As time goes by and the number of times increases, the affairs in the court and the Duan family's struggle for the throne become more and more intense, and everyone becomes dissatisfied. I don't have the leisure time to worry about whether Lian Hou is acting appropriately.
In addition, Lianhou was different from other Duan family members in that he would never let his children run wild and have their own way. Other mansions were bustling with excitement all day long, but the scene in front of his house was incomparable. The boys and girls in the house were all well-behaved, and they were a breath of fresh air in the Duan clan.
"Prince Duan's plan this time is really good. I don't know how he persuaded Marquis Lian to relent and send his second son to do such a hard job." Shen Cha chuckled lightly. , "However, looking at the children of the Duan family, only those in the Lianhou Mansion can hold this important position. If other members of the Duan family come and accidentally cause a huge disaster, don't say anything about asking for peace or marriage, just don't make enemies. That's good. But I see that this second young master is also a nobody, far worse than Prince Hou."
"That's what the general said." The shopkeeper bent down slightly, "His Majesty Hou is famous far and wide. Even people like us are lucky enough to read his poems. The king of my family also once said that this Prince Hou is very talented. Fortunately, Marquis Lian does not allow his children to become officials. If he does become an official, it will be a waste of his talent and learning."
"What a coincidence, my Majesty also said such a thing!" Seeing Merlin running in from outside, Shen Cha waved to her, "How about it?"
"General, this envoy of the Duan family is really..." Merlin felt like she was going crazy. She had never seen such a person in her whole life. "What a chatterbox. I heard from Mr. Nan and Mr. Qi that they Before they came out, this man had been chattering at the door of the inn for half an hour. When they went out to see, they thought there was a quarrel outside. Unexpectedly, this so-called quarrel was caused by this envoy alone. Just now, Mr. Nan and The military advisor said that this man has been talking to himself for almost an hour and a half."
"The family tradition of Marquis Lian..." Shen Cha shook his head helplessly, "It's unbelievable. No wonder Prince Duan is in pain all day long! Forget it, let's go out and have a look, and I can also see the style of the second master, Marquis Lian."
After saying that, Shen Cha stood up and walked towards the door of the inn.
"General, wait a minute!" Mei Lin stopped Shen Cha, wrapped her in a thick fur, then took the hand stove handed over by Mei Zhu and stuffed it into her hand. "It's snowing heavily outside again. General, it's better to wrap yourself up tightly to avoid the wind."
Shen Cha nodded and walked out calmly. As soon as he walked out, he saw a boy who looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old, wearing a white fox fur, standing in the snow, dancing and saying something.
Duan Yu didn't think he was stupid at all. He felt that as long as he could make Daxia's general Zhenguo come out, it wouldn't matter even if the entire Linhuang Mansion thought he was crazy.
But he didn't expect that after standing in the heavy snow talking to himself for nearly two hours, he only coaxed Yerunan, Qi Zhifeng and Xia's military advisers out, but the Zhenguo general was nowhere to be seen. He was a little discouraged and wanted to give up, but then he thought about it and realized that he had already done this. If he really gave up, he would not only become a joke in front of Liao and Xia, but he would also become a joke to the entire Duan family when he returned. .
Thinking of this, Duan Yu continued to talk to himself hard until he saw a man wrapped in fur walking out of the inn surrounded by several guards. He knew that the person he wanted to see finally appeared.
Duan Yu stood up straight, straightened his clothes, and bowed deeply to Shen Cha.
"Duan Yu, the second son of the Duan clan's Lianhou Mansion, has met General Daxia Zhenguo!" Duan Yu said with a smile on his face, "It's rare to see a general. I spent two hours in the snow before I could see the general. , It’s really not easy. I hope the general will take pity on you and give him a bowl of hot tea to warm you up, how about that?”
Duan Yu looked at Shen Cha with a smile. He boasted that he had a good-looking face. No matter how mighty General Zhenguo was on the battlefield, after all, she was still a woman. Although she would not fall in love at first sight, she would not ignore her either.
The second young master had a good plan, but who would have thought that Shen Cha didn't even look at him and faced Yerunan and Qi Zhifeng directly after coming out.
"You two are really in a good mood. Isn't it a different feeling to stand outside in the cold weather, starving and freezing? Breakfast has been prepared. You two will go back as soon as possible after eating. You are staying out for the night, so your family may not be in a hurry! "
After saying that, Shen Cha winked at Jin Jing, turned around and walked back to the inn.
Jin Jing glanced at Duan Yu who was dumbfounded on the spot, shook her head gently, pulled Yerunan and Qi Zhifeng and went back with Shen Cha.
"Hey, general, general..."
Duan Yu didn't expect such a result. He walked quickly to the door of the inn and wanted to follow him in. However, he didn't expect that the door of the inn slammed shut in front of his eyes. Fortunately, he hid in time, otherwise, the door panel would have fallen. I'm going to slap him in the face——
