Chapter 907: Brazen
"I'm a barbarian too!"
As soon as these words came out, the audience fell into silence.
Ge Luo was even more stunned when he heard Xu Qing's words.
People can be shameless, but they can't be so shameless!
Chu State is now the best in the world relying on its own military strength, and it doesn't even want to pretend, does it?
To put it bluntly.
Ask here: Why did you hit me? Don't you know it's immoral?
As a result, a sentence came from the opposite side: I know, because I have no quality!
Can we still have a good chat? !
The Minister of the Ministry of War sitting on the side looked at Xu Qing with envy on his face.
He really envied Xu Qing for being so shameless!
The Central Plains has been a country of etiquette since ancient times, but if there is any country that pays attention to etiquette, it is undoubtedly the country of Zhao, adhering to the principle that many people do not blame people for etiquette, and there are all kinds of strange and cumbersome etiquette.
But later they discovered that what they got in return for their meticulous etiquette was not respect from other countries, but unscrupulous bullying.
Look at the state of Chu again. With their strong military power, they don't have to talk about etiquette, but they must force the other country to talk about etiquette.
Just like the current Shezhao, after Xu Qing's blatant provocation, Shezhao didn't even dare to speak louder.
The sharp contrast between true and false etiquette.
The state of false etiquette: Don't hit me, I am very polite.
The real state of etiquette: cub species! In front of me, it is best to show the etiquette you should have!
The Minister of the Ministry of War is tired of talking about the word envy.
They are both in the Central Plains, so why is there such a big gap?
Just when the scene was cold, Zhao Huang clapped his hands, and a group of dancers came up to perform a dance, which added a little warmth to the slightly chilly dust-cleaning banquet.
But Ge Luo couldn't drink a glass of wine.
It can be said that there is no country in the world that is the opponent of Chu, and Shezhao is even worse.
If the army of Chu State really arrives at the border of Zhao State, their army of Shezhao State will die without a place to bury them!
Chu State is not as submissive as Zhao State, and has a strong ability to tolerate foreign countries. Chu State can be said to be notoriously ruthless to foreign races who are not ministers!
From Zhao Guo's point of view, those who can talk to them on an equal footing without putting on airs are friends, but from Chu's point of view, those who refuse to submit to them are enemies.
This gap is really not that big.
And Chu State does have the strength to do so.
We must find a way to prevent the Chu army from reaching the border, but how to stop it?
At this time, Ge Luo's heart has fallen into a deep entanglement.
Dare to be angry but dare not speak, what should be said is his current state?
After the dust-cleaning feast, Emperor Chu looked at Xu Qing and said with a smile: "There is a lantern festival in the capital of Zhao Guo tonight, so there is no curfew, why don't Captain Long take Xu Zhengshi around for a while, so that Zhao Guojin can come in?" The friendship of the landlord. What does the envoy think?"
Xu Qing glanced at Long Bing'er and said, "Being respectful is worse than following orders."
Long Bing'er also got up and said in a cupped fist, "I obey the order."
In fact, there was no lantern festival today, it was all created by Emperor Zhao, just to let Xu calm down and quickly clean up Shezhaoguo.
General Long's troops were already insufficient and he had already lost the territory of the two states, so he was about to lose his hold.
If Xu Qing was not happy and didn't go to the Shezhao at all, and just led the army to station outside the capital in a grandiose way, how would they let Zhao Guo deal with it?
In order for Xu Qing to be happy, Emperor Zhao did everything, except to send Xu Qing a few imperial concubines to make Xu Qing feel comfortable.
After coming out of the cleaning banquet, Long Binger and Xu Qing went to the lantern festival together.
Even Xu Qing himself didn't expect that he originally wanted to avoid suspicion when he came to Zhao Guo's capital, but it seemed that everyone in the capital was pushing Long Binger towards him.
This is not fate what is fate?
Don't feel a little embarrassed.
But only Zhao Huang knew that this lantern festival was organized for these two people at his own expense.
There is only one purpose, let this big Buddha help Zhao Guo to clear up foreign troubles.
Otherwise, their Zhao country might really be the first country to perish among the three countries in the Central Plains.
In desperation, he could only resort to this beauty trick.
Although I know that the Long family has always been staunch, but the big deal is to compensate later, let's try to cooperate with the court's difficulties now.
above the Lantern Festival
Xu Qing and Long Binger wandered in the bustling market.
Although this Lantern Festival can be said to be held for the two of them, there are quite a few people who should have a scene.
In addition, the imperial court lifted the curfew today, and Chu State beat up the people of Shezhao country again, and took away a lot of them in one breath. The people like to come out for a while when they are happy.
Long Binger looked at Xu Qing and said, "I'm hungry, I'm going to buy something to eat."
Xu Qing was surprised: "Are you still full?"
Zhao's cleansing banquet is much more luxurious than Chu's!
Flying in the sky, swimming in the water, and running on the ground are full for you, and Long Binger is not full yet?
Long Bing'er rubbed her stomach and said, "There are so many people at the dust-cleaning banquet, so nervous, how can you eat safely? You just have to eat it as a meal."
Xu Qing said honestly: "The sky is big and the earth is big, so you can't control your food and drink, right?"
Long Bing'er pursed her lips, and went straight to an old man's stall. Although the stall was simple, the dim sum sold by the old man smelled very fragrant.
After Long Binger bought some, Xu Qing planned to pay for Long Binger, but Long Binger directly put a piece of broken silver on the old man's booth and told the old man not to look for it.
Seeing the broken silver, the old man almost knelt down and kowtowed to Long Binger, but Long Binger stopped him and walked away with Xu Qing.
Xu Qing looked at Long Bing'er in surprise and said, "At first I thought you were just kind, but I didn't expect you to be so generous."
Long Bing'er said: "Anyway, Eunuch Bai told me when he came out, what His Majesty means is to make you happy, and I will spend the money as I like, and it belongs to the imperial court."
Xu Qing couldn't help but sighed when he heard Long Binger's words: "Wouldn't I be happier if you just give me the money? Do you still need to coax me?"
Hearing Xu Qing's words, Long Bing'er couldn't help snorting: "Is money more important or me?"
Xu Qing immediately said: "Of course, Binger, the money you give is more important. Hurry up and see how much Zhao Guo's court gave you. We will have a 50-50 share, even if you give the dowry in advance."
When Long Binger heard Xu Qing's words, she immediately became unhappy, and said angrily, "No!"
Xu Qing sighed: "If you don't give it, you won't give it, little money fan."
Long Binger stomped her feet impatiently when she heard Xu Qing's words: "Don't be so shameless, okay? You have a lot of money!"
Xu Qing took it for granted: "Men are not bad and women don't love them. I don't have these skills. How could I deceive you?"
Long Bing'er blushed immediately, and snorted, "Your appearance really annoys me!"
Xu Qing said: "Xue'er's mother and concubine can be said. Women's words are reversed. If you say that I am annoying you, then we have to act according to women's temperament..."
Long Bing'er couldn't help but widen her eyes, how could there be such a brazen person in the world?
