Chapter 256 The banquet

"What's hard to guess? My aunt went to Youzhou to cook the Lu family. The boss of the Lu family was taken to Yingzhou by her nephew, and there was absolutely no reason why my aunt didn't come."

"Well, it's really a very simple logic, but it's right."

Princess Taiping sat on the Khitan King's chair casually, and slung on the chair without sitting, and even stepped on one leg on the armrest, as if she was a testimony that Li Chongrun had said before, as long as you are strong enough, what you did

Everything is a rule.

"In order to catch up with your meal, I rushed to you from Youzhou in a long journey. But if you have any food, I will give you a cushion to me first? I will starve to death."

Several common followers who were with Li Chongrun on weekdays were not there, only Gongsun Lan was present, and hurried out to arrange some breakfast.

Princess Taiping didn't dislike the simple food. She pulled the dried porridge into her mouth in a few seconds, then picked up the soy milk and drank it all in big gulps. Her face, which was a little haggard, turned a lot of energy.

"Tell me, what are your ideas?"

"The world is peaceful, my nephew just wants to take this opportunity to celebrate and join in the grand event."

"It's so simple?" Princess Taiping glared at Li Chongrun suspiciously, looked at the three dark big ships on the river bank. The cannon windows on the side of the big ship were closed tightly, and no one was leaked.

A long convoy was driving out of Liucheng, and many carriages were connected together. Under the pull of several horses in front of him, he slowly drove towards the Khitan camp three miles away.

"What is this?"

"The food and grass that the Khitans asked for. Since they were friendly forces, my nephew had absolutely no reason not to help. Just so I thought there would be tens of thousands of refugees in need of relief, so my nephew came from Yangzhou this time and brought a lot of food. It was a share

They're a little bit."

"You are so kind?"

"The main reason is that if they don't give it, they will call me, and I'm afraid I can't beat it."

Li Chongrun was very honest and took the initiative to admit that he had used money to buy peace.

At this time, a row of messy and slow figures walked out from behind the Khitan camp and slowly came toward the Liucheng.

"What is that?"

"Oh, these Khitan barbarians went around in the pass and robbed a lot of slaves. The nephew is a businessman, and the food cannot be given in vain. The Khitans cannot support so many people, so the nephew came up with an idea to change the food to the population.

Today, this amount is the thousands of women and children who have been exchanged for it."

"What do you want so many women and children?" Princess Taiping opened her mouth and wanted to ask, but later she remembered that her nephew was originally going to the north to sell humans, so she simply shut up: "Forget it, let's go!

, I don’t understand business matters, you think it’s good.”

"Thank you for your understanding." Seeing that His Highness the Princess no longer entangled with this, Li Chongrun breathed a sigh of relief.

The long team of women and children, dressed in rags, bypassed the sheds built for the banquet and walked into the city.

"I went to Youzhou and originally wanted to investigate the relationship between the Yingzhou Rebellion and the Wuling people. However, news came from Di Gong that only said that the matter in Yingzhou this time had nothing to do with the Wuling people, and I don't know that Di Gong was not aware of Di Gong.

Where did you get the news? There are very few words that can be said by Fei Ge’s letters. I have used up a lot of pigeons I brought. I can’t make a waste of one for this little thing, so I didn’t ask.”

Princess Taiping remembered that the important thing was important, so she quickly said this: "Where is Dae Jo-young? Bring him, I see how the dead eunuch of the Lu family talked back to me again."

"Dae Jo-young, dead."

"It's really dead. I also asked why Qianniuwei didn't bring anyone." Princess Taiping seemed to have guessed Dae Jo-young's death, but she still smashed her mouth with a little regret: "It's a pity, otherwise this time."

The Lu family will definitely fall."

Just as the few people were talking, there were people outside that the leaders of all forces who were invited to attend the banquet had arrived.

With outsiders present, the aunt and nephew were not convenient to talk about these confidential topics. As landlords, Li Chongrun naturally needed to greet them. His Royal Highness simply asked Gongsun Lan to bring a pillow and came on the huge wolf chair.

Close your eyes and rest.

The Turkic Khan Ashina Mochu did not appear. Although Li Chongrun was very sure that Ashina Mochu would definitely hide in the Turkic camp, the Western Turks have now been sanctioned by the court and have not received the will of His Majesty.

It is tantamount to rebellion, so the Turkic classmate who represents the Turkic is Li Chongrun's Turkic classmate.

It turned out that the little fat man was actually Ashina Mochu's eldest son, so he was naturally qualified to attend the banquet instead of me.

Ashi, who was also a fat man, wanted to exchange greetings with Li Chongrun for a few words, but he saw that Li Chongrun looked bad and there was a woman who was sleeping at the main table very arrogantly. Seeing that Li Chongrun was silent, she seemed to be very conscious of the woman.

It was a respectful look, and it was not difficult to guess the identity of the woman. She didn't even dare to sit down. She just stood tremblingly behind her chair with a personal guard, staring at her nose and her heart.

Later, Li Chongrun's cheap uncle, and his current son-in-law, Wu Youji.

Wu Youji saw that his wife was sleeping on the main table. She wanted to come forward to say hello, but when she was about to arrive, she hesitated again. After thinking about it for a while, she just took off her scarlet cloak and was very careful.

It covered Princess Taiping.

The third one came to Khitan's leader Sun Wanrong. Before Li Chongrun could see others, he heard a pretentious laughter.

This was the first time Li Chongrun met Sun Wanrong. If it weren't for the big hat full of sable tails on his head, this Khitan man who directly displaced tens of thousands of people in Yingzhou, and the rich family everywhere on Yangzhou Street.

There is no difference between you.

After saying a few nonsense about long-term reverence to each other, Li Chongrun bowed and asked someone to take him to the shed.

The Khitan man first saw his chair being placed in the main seat facing south, and his face was obviously happy, and then he saw someone lying on it. He wanted to open his mouth and scold him, but he saw the one sitting on the chair.

When I am a human, I instantly shut my mouth.

When he was young, he had studied abroad in Chang'an for many years, so he naturally recognized His Royal Highness the Princess and rushed forward to greet him in a hurry. His Royal Highness, whose eyes were exactly the same as His Royal Highness today, raised his eyes gently, waved his hand to signal that he knew, and then he then raised his eyes again.

I fell asleep deeply.

The atmosphere under the shed fell silent so strangely. Several people adopted the strategy of closing their eyes and resting, but after a while, they looked at the empty Lu family head.

I thought to myself that this man is really brave and dares to show off his tricks in front of the princess's palace.

It was almost midnight outside, and the team of women and children captured by the Khitans outside had already passed, and the carriages were walking a little slowly, but they had already arrived not far from the Khitan camp.

Since that master couldn't wait on the left and right, Li Chongrun was a little impatient and sent Chen Zi'ang to invite him.

After a few incense sticks, the head of the Lu family, who saw that everyone owed him tens of thousands of yuan, slowly walked down from the carriage that picked him up with Baye.

He coughed slowly outside the shed twice, and then asked his old servant to lift the curtain and then walked in slowly.

However, his face was a little arrogant. When he saw Princess Taiping sleeping on the Khitan King's chair, he quickly changed a few times, and his speed was comparable to that of a famous actor in Sichuan opera.

I saw the princess casually, and without waiting for the princess to return the gift, I looked for a chair with my name written on it and went to sit on it.

"Aunt, aunt, everyone is here."

"Ah! Are all the people here?"

His Royal Highness seemed to have just woken up, and took Wu Youji's cloak with no image and wiped the saliva that did not exist at the corner of his mouth: "Are you here? Then serve the food when you come."
