The people in Honglu Temple knew about the hatred between Gu Yu and Xirong, and they always tried to avoid letting her see him.
She had no choice but to find a way to understand them.
I just happened to come across it today, so I found an inconspicuous corner to sit down and observe quietly.
At this time, the waiter in the teahouse came over to pour tea for Gu Yu. When he saw Gu Yu, he was startled and subconsciously shouted out the word "host".
Gu Yu raised her hand and stopped the waiter.
The waiter pretended not to recognize Gu Yu, poured her tea quietly and left.
Gu Yu secretly observed Prince Wudan. He had broad features and was wearing the clothes of Dayu. Compared with other Xirong people, he was slightly shorter in stature. His actions were most similar to those of Dayu.
"Looking at Qi'ao, there are green bamboos and Yiyi. There are bandit gentlemen, who are like fighting with each other, like plowing and grinding. They are harried and arrogant, and they are proud and arrogant. There are bandit gentlemen, and they cannot be arrogant."
Prince Wudan muttered something in his mouth. He didn't learn the Chinese dialect very well, and it was even more difficult to pronounce it in the ancient pronunciation.
He sighed: "Central Plains poetry is really eloquent when read."
Zhongyuan, a Xirong guard next to him, spoke better than him, so he followed him. When he heard Prince Wudan say this, he sneered, "Does Prince Wudan know what that means? It's just that he is eloquent."
Prince Wudan glanced at the guard and was not angry because he contradicted him. He said, "Does General Huer Xun know what he means?"
Hu Erxun seemed to be choked. He could only speak the Central Plains dialect, but he couldn't translate a poem that had hundreds of words in it.
Hu Erxun said firmly: "I don't understand!"
Prince Wudan sighed and muttered something in his mouth.
Gu Yu couldn't hear it clearly, and when she was confused, Prince Wudan pulled the female gentleman and said in poor Chinese dialect: "May I ask, girl, what is the meaning of the poem you are reciting?"
The female gentleman is a woman in her thirties. She is wearing a light blue dress, her dark hair is held up by an ebony hairpin, and she is full of bookishness.
Prince Wu Dan was startled by this, but seeing Wu Dan's sincere face and his eyes full of curiosity, the thought of becoming a teacher came to his mind.
The female gentleman said gently: "The meaning of this sentence is, look at the Qishui River Bend, the green bamboos stand tall and slender. There is a beautiful gentleman, who spars with bone and ivory, and carves jade and strange stones. He has a solemn and majestic air, and a mighty and generous manner. He is so handsome.
Gentleman, who can forget him!"
Wu Dan said: "It's really wonderful."
A Xirong man said rudely: "Is it a woman who likes a man and uses it to praise him? Or compare it to ivory or jade. Shouldn't a real man be compared to a lion, an eagle, an eagle, a fierce horse? So soft,
It’s very boring.”
When the female teacher saw that the famous poem in the Book of Songs had been misinterpreted in such a vulgar way, she immediately lowered her face and asked, "Aren't you from Dayu?"
Wu Dan saw the female gentleman's displeasure and quickly apologized: "Girl, please calm down. We are indeed not from the Central Plains, but we have admired the Central Plains culture for a long time, so we came here to ask for advice."
As the Yu Dynasty prospered day by day, many foreigners came to visit it.
In addition, Wudan and the others were wearing clothes from the Yu Dynasty. Even if they didn’t say they were from Xirong, the female gentleman would not be able to guess.
The female gentleman originally had a good impression of this young man who was asking for advice humbly and was willing to give him some advice. However, the Xirong people around him were really annoying.
The female gentleman said coldly: "Watch the monkey and wear the crown! It's nothing more than that."
A Xirong man said: "What monkey? What pass? What does it mean?"
It was difficult for them to communicate normally with the Dayu people, not to mention that this female gentleman spoke in a polite manner.
Although they didn't understand it, they knew from the expression on the female gentleman's face that it was not a good thing.
Hu Erxun vaguely guessed it, and immediately slapped the table and said: "She is calling us monkeys!"
As soon as these words came out, several Xirong people stood up.
They could be sent to the Yu Dynasty because they were all officials with a certain status in Xirong. In addition, in Xirong, the status of women was very low, almost like animals.
Now in the Yu Dynasty, when being scolded by a woman, everyone becomes furious.
Only Wudan was caught in the middle, his expression changed, and he said: "Don't be rude!"
Hu Erxun acted as if he hadn't heard anything and said in Xirong: "The people of the Yu Dynasty have forgotten how they were beaten to pieces by us, and now they are arrogantly pointing at our noses and scolding us! We are facing the emperor.
You have to endure it, but if you continue to tolerate this humble commoner woman, will you still be considered an indomitable Xirong man!"
Prince Wudan said in Xirong: "Hurxun, what do you want to do! This is the capital of Dayu, not the grassland! If we offend Emperor Dayu, we will not get any good fruits."
Hu Erxun was furious and cursed Wu Dan in a low voice: "Coward!"
It was because there were too many cowards like Wu Dan in Xirong that Emperor Dayu thought that Xirong could be manipulated by him.
Hu Erxun stopped in front of the female gentleman and said, "Tell me! Did you just call us monkeys?"
The female gentleman was also a man of backbone. She was not afraid of Hu Erxun, who was much taller than her. Instead, she straightened her back.
She was afraid that these Xirong people wouldn't understand, so she used the simplest Central Plains dialect and said word for word: "What I mean is that even if you put on the clothes of the Yu Dynasty, you can't imitate the people of the Yu Dynasty."
The etiquette is correct, like a monkey wearing human clothes and performing a show, it is extremely ridiculous!"
After hearing this, Hu Erxun became furious and immediately wanted to punch the female gentleman.
At this moment, something came out of the air and hit Hu Erxun on the temple. He staggered and fell down on a table, and the tea set on the table shattered to the ground.
Seeing this, all the people of Xirong were on full alert. They looked around, trying to find the person responsible for the sneak attack and give him a lesson. However, they found that many tea drinkers had gathered around them, blaming them with every word.
"Where did the barbarians come from! Come and let me, Dayu, go wild!"
"You bully women in public, do you think all the men in my Yu Dynasty are dead?"
"Looking at the tone of their words, they seem to be from Xirong!"
"Well, the Xirong people pretended to be like Sun Tzu when they paid tribute, but now they are doing evil among the people!"
"Are the officials of Honglu Temple dead? They don't know how to tie up these beasts!"
"The barbarians can be educated!"
These Xirong people heard it half-understood, but they all knew that this was a curse on them. One of the Xirong people had a fierce look on his face.
Someone among the tea guests said: "Hit them!"
I don't know who did it, but a Xirong man was attacked by a hidden weapon. He only felt pain in his knees and almost knelt down.
The Xirong people were furious and shouted in Xirong language: "Beat!"
The two sides fought.
Wu Dan was smaller than these Xirong men and could not stop him. He kept saying something in Xirong among them, but instead of listening to the advice, Hu Erxun became more and more ruthless.
Hu Er Xun was the follower of his brother Wu Chi.
Wudan is the son of Xirong Khan and a shepherd girl. Compared to ordinary Xirong people who are as strong as cattle, Wudan's body is really weak.
When he was in the grassland, Hu Erxun ignored him.
This time, Dayu came with him, but he didn't obey his orders at all, and even brought his guards to constantly disobey him.
Seeing that Wudan could not be persuaded, he simply stopped. After returning, he must complain to the Khan.
only...
Wu Dan looked around. He always felt that something was wrong in everything today. Who was behind it and what was his intention?
