Chapter 790 Roman Messenger
After Ailang arrived in Qingzhou, he stayed for only one night and continued to go south. He traveled with all his might and arrived in Xuzhou for a few days. He prepared to rest in Xuzhou for a night before continuing to go south.
Xuzhou is in a quiet and peaceful atmosphere under the night sky. Although it is almost midnight, several major hotel streets are still bustling with people. The restaurants are filled with lights, and the Hong Kong Pavilion is singing and dancing to peace. It is completely different from the battle situation in full swing at the border, and it seems like a peaceful and prosperous era.
In the Qin Palace, several maids came to the bathroom door with several clean dresses. Then Zhuge Ruoxue's close maid Xiaojuan took the dresses from the hands of several maids and took them in alone. At this time, waves of angry and annoying sounds of women coming from the bathroom, but they were lingering and moving, with a series of sounds of water mixed in, which felt very touching. The maids left at the door were all girls who had just been summoned to the house. Without any human affairs, they had no idea why there was such a sound in the bathroom. They couldn't help but feel strange and curious.
At this time, Xiaojuan came out of the bathroom with a red face and quickly closed the door. Walking among the maids, the maid who looked only fifteen or sixteen years old, asked curiously: "Sister Xiaojuan, what are you doing inside? This sound is so strange!" At this moment, Zhuge Ruoxue suddenly heard a loud scream from the bathroom, which made the little maids open their eyes wide and look a little uneasy. Xiaojuan said to the maids with a red face: "What do you do when you ask about the matter between the lord and the two ladies? Go down quickly!" As he said that, he led several maids down. Seeing that Sister Xiaojuan seemed angry, the maids were still very curious, but they dared not ask again.
Xiaojuan sent a few little maids to rest. Then she was about to go to the kitchen to prepare some light midnight snacks for the lord and his wife. At this moment, a female guard officer came in quickly. When she saw Xiaojuan, she immediately smiled and clasped her fists and said, "Sister Xiaojuan!" Xiaojuan recognized the person and smiled and said, "It's you! I'm so anxious in the middle of the night. Is there anything wrong?" The female officer nodded and clasped her fists and said, "The messenger in the south is here, bringing an urgent report." Then she looked behind Xiaojuan and asked Xiaojuan, "Is the lord here?" Xiaojuan said, "The lord is here. However, the lord has rested. Can't you report it to your lord tomorrow?"
The female officer looked puzzled and said, "This is a bit difficult. The rule set by the lord must be delivered immediately. If the lord only reports to the lord tomorrow, I am afraid I will be beaten!" Then he begged, "Sister Xiaojuan, please help me, report to my lord on my lord!" Xiaojuan hesitated for a moment, sighed helplessly, and said, "You call me sister. If I don't help, wouldn't it be too unreasonable! Wait a moment, I'll go and report it!" The female officer clasped her fists happily and said, "Thank you, Miss Xiaojuan!"
Xiaojuan turned around and walked towards the bathroom. The closer she got, the more her heart was beating violently. When she came to the bathroom door, she heard nothing inside, and felt relieved. Then she sang at the door: "Report to the lord, there is an urgent military report sent from the south!..." After a while, Ailang's voice sounded from the bathroom: "I understand. Take the person to the small hall and I will come soon." Xiaojuan responded and quickly returned to the female officer, saying, "My lord said, I'll take the person to the small hall here, and he will arrive soon." The female officer nodded and clasped his fists at Xiaojuan, "Thank you, Sister Xiaojuan!" Then she quickly walked away.
Ailang was dressed neatly. He came out of the bathroom and saw Xiaojuan guarding the door. Xiaojuan bowed and said, "Lord, the person who came has been brought to the small hall." Ailang nodded and walked towards the small hall. The so-called small hall here is actually the hall of Zhuge Ruoxue's yard, which is in today's terms. This kind of small hall is usually the front room of the yard or the first floor of the wooden building.
After Ai Lang left, Xiaojuan immediately entered the bathroom and prepared to serve Mrs. Zhuge and Mrs. Wudie out of the bath. Xiaojuan turned the screen and an extremely beautiful scene immediately came into view, making Xiaojuan stay on the spot. Then Xia Fei's cheeks and heart thumped, and she didn't know what to do for a moment.
Ailang came to the small hall, and the female officer who was waiting and a dusty officer immediately bowed to Ailang: "King of Qin!"
Ailang glanced at the dusty officer and asked, "Where did the urgent report come from?" The officer immediately took out the bamboo slip bag and presented it with his hands, "It was the urgent report sent by Lord Zhou Yu and General Xu Huang to the villain!" Ailang's heart moved, took the bamboo slip bag, took out a roll of bamboo slips, and opened it and looked at it. An unexpected expression appeared in his eyes, and he murmured to himself: "The Romans sent an envoy to make peace with me?"
A few days later, Ailang rushed to Wujun. Zhou Yu and Xu Huang connected Ailang into the hall of the capital to pay homage. Ailang waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite." Then he asked, "Where is this Roman envoy now?" Zhou Yu said, "Arranged in the city's guest hall. The subordinates sent someone to secretly monitor it. This person left the guest hall every day and wandered around and bought various goods. It seems that the purpose of the other party's trip was very likely to be to investigate our reality."
Ailang thought for a moment and asked, "Have you talked to the other party?" Zhou Yu said, "I have had a preliminary talk. This person spoke ambiguously and did not focus on the key points. Whenever he talked about the key points, he would say that he would only say it when he saw his lord."
Ailang sneered, "Since that's the case, there's no need to delay." He looked at Zhou Yu, "Gongjin, bring him immediately. I want to see what the people from the Roman Empire look like!" Zhou Yu clasped his fists and walked quickly.
Ailang asked Xu Huang: "Have the enemy done any moves recently?" Xu Huang clasped his fists and said, "Since the enemy retreated to Yizhou, there has been no action. According to our detailed rewards, the Romans enslaved the local natives to build camp castles for them, as if they were to occupy Yizhou for a long time." Ailang was furious and scolded: "These golden bastards!"
Not long after, Ailang saw a middle-aged man wearing an ancient Roman cloak that he had seen in film and television dramas followed Zhou Yu in. The man was holding a helmet in his hand, with curly golden hair, blue eyes, and a beard all over his face. He was not strong, dry and thin, but his eyes gave him a fox-like feeling.
Zhou Yu led the Roman envoy to the hall, clasped his fists and said, "Lord, the Roman envoy has arrived." Ailang looked at the man. Zhou Yu turned around and said to the Roman envoy, "This is our lord, you must kneel down and salute!" The Roman envoy said proudly: "I represent the Roman Empire, and no one is qualified to make me kneel down!" He spoke Chinese, which was quite stiff.
Zhou Yu sneered and said, "This is the Han Empire. Anyone must follow our rules when they come here!" The Roman envoy stood proudly in the hall, unmoved at all. Zhou Yu beat Xu Huang, who had been unable to control himself, and the latter immediately stepped forward and was about to take action. The Roman envoy saw the strong and tough general strode towards him, not surprised but happy, and immediately prepared to knock the other party to the ground so that these Orientals could know their power. Seeing the other general strode to him, the Roman envoy suddenly raised his right fist and hit Xu Huang's face. The movement was very sudden and very rapid. According to his own estimate, no one could avoid his punch!
However, he was too self-righteous. He swung this punch and failed to hit the other party as he wished, but suddenly felt a pain in his arm, and then he was shocked to find that the right fist he had hit was actually grabbed by the other party. Before he could take measures, he suddenly saw the other party's fist suddenly appeared in front of him. Then he heard a loud noise from Wan, and Venus was spinning in front of him. The Roman envoy staggered for a moment, and only felt that his head was about to explode. At this moment, the Roman envoy felt a pain in his arms, shoulders and legs at the same time, and he couldn't help but kneel to the ground, and a sound of Wan. When the Roman envoy came to his senses, he suddenly found that he had kneeled in a mess in front of the King of Qin. The Roman envoy was shocked and could not help but turn his head to look at the terrifying general, with a clear look of fear in his eyes.
Ailang smiled coldly and said teasingly: "It's a joke, now it's time to talk about the serious business." The Roman envoy looked at Ailang, with an angry look in his eyes, and shouted loudly: "You insult me so much is to insult our Roman Empire! Our army will let you know how terrible it would be to offend us!"
Ailang sighed and said, "This bastard still doesn't understand the rules. I slap my mouth." Xu Huang, who was standing next to the Roman envoy, grabbed the collar of the Roman envoy, raised his right hand and slapped him hard, and a loud bang! The Roman envoy immediately raised half of his cheek, causing him to tears, and he spat out a mouthful of blood and two teeth with a sound of wow. The Roman envoy looked at the King of Qin in panic, feeling that his identity could not protect him at all, and he couldn't help but worry whether the other party would kill him. As soon as he thought of this, his originally angry and crazy expression was replaced by panic.
Ailang asked teasingly, "Can you speak well now?" The Roman envoy nodded quickly.
Ailang smiled and said, "That's it. What's your name?" "Ah, Alu,..." The Roman envoy was knocked out of both front teeth and his mouth was leaking, so the voice was unclear. Ailang felt a little funny and asked, "Alu?" The Roman envoy shook his head, swallowed, and said again: "Cara!"
Ailang suddenly realized and said, "Cara." Cara nodded. Ailang looked at him and asked, "Who sent you? What's the matter?" Cara said, "Yes, it was our General Severu who sent me to come..." "Severu? Is it the general of your Roman army?" Cara nodded and said, "We General Severu, who sent me to come,..." But Ailang raised his hand and interrupted him. He looked at Ailang in confusion.
