"I'm just..." Shao Yan was about to say, I'm not some bullshit special envoy, but he was interrupted by Xiao Xiang in the middle of his sentence.
"Princess, I think this young man must be an envoy from the Kingdom of Western Chu. I'm sure I'm not wrong. Look at his hair and his clothes."
Shao Yan glared at her with disdain. You talk so much, how do you know that I am from Xichu? There are many people you have never seen. Brother, let me tell you clearly that you are completely wrong. I am a foreigner.
Xingren, as a modern and outstanding young man, he doesn’t like talking to this kind of woman who has no appearance and no vision.
The woman in red looked at Shao Yan carefully and shook her head, "It's not like that. I remember that last year, the emperor met a general from Xi Chu. I happened to be nearby at that time. Although the clothes were a bit weird, it was nothing like this.
Ridiculous, look at this young master’s face with makeup, I remember that people in Xichu all have plain faces.”
Beauty still has foresight. Shao Yan looked at Xiaoxiang beside him and found that she was staring at him with burning eyes. Damn, what are you looking at? Have you never seen a handsome guy? There is really nothing you can do against ancient women. Shao Yan wiped his face
He had mud on his face and assumed what he thought was the coolest pose. He accurately remembered that this was the 99th time in the past 25 years that he had sacrificed his appearance in front of a girl. However, the previous 98 times were all about 'sacrifice' or holding hands.
, either kiss her on the lips, or just book a room for the night. He feels that he is a very principled man, that is, he never does a loss-making business, but now he is probably working in vain, because he doesn't think about it at all.
To survive in ancient times, even if a beautiful woman comes to his door, he has to pretend to be a gentleman and turn a blind eye.
"Sir, do you have lower back pain?" The woman in red saw him dragging his waist with one hand and pointing at the blue sky with one hand, thinking it was an injury.
Only then did Shao Yan realize that there was something wrong with his posture, so he simply used the trick and said: "Yes, this man is old, has all kinds of problems, and his waist is not working properly. In this way, you can chat first, and I will not accompany you."
"Are you leaving?" The woman in red looked at him reluctantly.
"Yes"
"Oh, then..." The woman in red wanted to say something, but hesitated, and then asked: "Young Master has been kind to us today, can you please leave your name?" In the society at that time, it was taboo for women to ask men.
’s name, so when she said this sentence, layers of red clouds appeared on her pretty face
"My name is Shao Yan!"
"My name is Yue Gui, and I will call you Brother Shao from now on."
"Brother Shao?" Shao Yan hesitated for a moment, then nodded happily, feeling happy in his heart. They said that ancient beauties were gentle and virtuous, and it seems true. Since they are so sincere, I have to show it. Thinking of this,
He opened his arms and walked towards Laurel
Yuegui thought he was going to do something frivolous and was so frightened that she took a few steps back. Xiaoxiang picked up a branch from the ground and blocked it in front of her. She scowled angrily and said, "What are you going to do? Don't come here. If you take another step forward, I will shout
"People"
Shao Yan smiled from ear to ear. All ladies are innocent. If it were the crazy women in modern times, they would have catered to the handsome guys when they saw them.
"Don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything else. I just want to give you a hug. This is also a courtesy in our hometown, which is equivalent to what you often say, 'see you later.'"
This method of picking up girls is called "old-fashioned" in modern times, but it is quite suitable in this era. When Yuegui heard what he said, her anxious heart became much more at ease. Xiaoxiang still had doubts and her mouth was pouty.
Lao Gao, "You are lying, you clearly want to take advantage of the princess."
"Since you don't believe it, forget it and pretend I didn't say anything, goodbye!" After saying that, Shao Yan turned around and walked away in a swaggering way.
"Master, please stay!"
Yue Gui's face turned a little red, and she opened her lips shyly after a while, "I believe you."
Shao Yan squinted his eyes and smiled slightly: "Oh, what are you waiting for? Let's just have a 'see you later'!" After saying that, he rushed over and hugged her tightly, and took advantage of her not paying attention to her.
Zhang Tong kissed him hard on his red and hot face, and then left gracefully. Everything seemed so natural.
Seeing that he was being frivolous, Xiaoxiang wanted to call the imperial guards to hunt her down, but Yuegui stopped her in a hurry. Xiaoxiang struggled to explain: "Princess, this guy named Shao is unknown, maybe he is a rogue in the market, and he was just a scoundrel."
To you..."
"No, even though this person behaved inappropriately, he helped us out at least once. I don't think so." Yue Gui wiped the foam on her face lightly, her shy face as beautiful as the first blooming flowers in spring.
"But he..."
"No need to say more, remember, this matter must not be mentioned to anyone." Yue Gui considered that as a princess of a country, if this matter was made public, it would not only damage the royal family's face, but also Shao Yan would definitely die, both inside and outside the palace.
All servants will be severely punished. She really doesn't want more people to die because of this incident.
…
Relatively speaking, Shao Yan had all the advantages. After leaving Osmanthus Forest, he looked for an exit everywhere. However, the palace was too large and he could not find the end no matter how he walked. Moreover, he had to avoid the sentries along the way.
often palace maid, eunuch
The palace is divided into four gates, east, west, north and south. In addition to four guards guarding each gate, in the corridor leading to each gate and on the long dam, there are three posts to one post, and five steps to one post. As you walk,
He was so tired that he was sweating profusely, and the weather was extremely hot and muggy, so he became increasingly irritable.
"You fucking want to heat me to death!" Shao Yan unbuttoned the collar on his chest, raised his head and spat out into the hot midday sun. Unexpectedly, the spit floated in the wind to the face of a guard.
superior
"Who is it? Who doesn't have eyes?" Before he finished speaking, he saw two fully armed guards walking up to him. One of the fat soldiers kept wiping the phlegm on his face with his hands. Shao Yan couldn't help but almost almost
Laughing out loud, the soldier asked: "Who are you?"
Shao Yan thought for a while, and then said with a foreigner's Chinese accent: "Oh, I don't even know you, you stupid pig, I'm from %#•#*•%￥, I've heard of it
No?"
The two soldiers were stunned at each other, obviously not understanding what he said. Shao Yan raised his hand and slapped each of them, cursing: "Baga, Xichu, envoy, envoy, do you understand?"
"Xi Chu? I understand, I understand!"
"Why don't you get out of the way quickly?"
"Yes, yes, please, please!" The soldier respectfully stepped aside, and Shao Yan walked forward triumphantly.
You know, everything is difficult at the beginning. After having his first "experience" in passing the border, Shao Yan suddenly became much more courageous than before. He openly used the banner of "Western Chu" wherever he went, and guarded everyone along the way.
After hearing the news, they all made way for him. In his eyes, the entire palace was like a museum, allowing him to wander around for a while. Just when he thought he had no obstruction and was wandering carelessly in the corridor, a man suddenly appeared in front of him.
A eunuch blocked his way
"Who is here? How dare you break into the imperial dining room?"
Shao Yan was stunned. The imperial dining room? Isn't that the place where ancient emperors ate? Damn, I finally found a place to eat. I was starving, so I pushed away the eunuch blocking the way and rushed in. Just as his front foot had just crossed the threshold.
, before his hind legs could catch up, he suddenly felt a pair of thick, hairy arms behind him pulling on his clothes.
"What are you doing? Be careful, I'm going to kill you." At this moment, Shao Yan was already growling with hunger, especially the aroma coming from the imperial dining room made him anxious. How could he care about the eunuchs guarding him?
Like, he started to curse: "Damn it, I am the special envoy of Xi Chu. I came to visit the imperial kitchen of your country. If you have nothing to do, please give me some relief."
"Your Majesty the Special Envoy!"
There was a loud roar from behind, which sounded like it was coming from a loudspeaker, and it also had an echo. Shao Yan was so shocked that he quickly covered his ears, and then slowly turned around.
The speaker was a burly, dark-skinned, middle-aged soldier with big beads of sweat dripping down his face. His big, pot-lid-like face was almost completely taken over by hairs, with only a pair of small eyes exposed.
The middle-aged soldier pulled Shao Yan out effortlessly, and then continued to stand at the door as if nothing had happened. Shao Yan was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves and wanted to rush over and slap him twice.
Is it necessary to have a doorman watch over me in broad daylight? Fortunately it is broad daylight, but if it were at night, I would still be scared half to death?
The middle-aged soldier seemed to have no intention of coming forward to apologize, and still stood there disapprovingly. This made Shao Yan very angry. At this moment, an old eunuch in his fifties walked out of the imperial dining room and said politely: "
Special envoy, please forgive me. According to the regulations of the Nanliang State, the imperial dining room is a forbidden area of the royal family. No one is allowed to enter except the emperor."
Seeing his apologetic face, Shao Yan's anger immediately disappeared. He waved his hand casually, "That's all. Since your country has regulations, then I'll look elsewhere."
"Farewell to the special envoy!" These four words were originally what the old eunuch was about to say, but the middle-aged soldier took a step ahead. As soon as the voice came out, there was only a "pop" sound, and an injured sparrow fell from the air.
, it hit Shao Yan on the shoulder.
Shao Yan leaned down and carefully put the injured sparrow into the hands of the middle-aged soldier. He shook his head regretfully: "Look, what a beautiful little bird, it was destroyed by your eagle. My child, you are so cruel."
You are ignorant, remember to speak more gently next time, so as not to hurt innocent people."
The middle-aged soldier stood at attention and replied: "Yes!" In an instant, dust was flying on the ground, and sand and rocks were flying in the distance...
"Wow, I really can't stand you!" In order to prevent himself from becoming the next victim, Shao Yan ran away with his head in his arms. However, he did not really leave, but went around the corner and hid secretly.
