Chapter 538 [3 More] 538
In fact, it was not very good to make the appointment at night, but he couldn't help it. He had other things to do during the day, and he had to come over for breakfast and lunch, and he had to eat with Liu Che.
But dinner is much easier. Liu Che usually eats dinner by himself. After all, whether Liu Che wants to enjoy the flowers and the moon or invite a beautiful woman to sleep with him, he needs a certain amount of private space. It was a bit embarrassing for Liu Tan to stay there as a grown son.
So dinner is usually eaten separately, which also gave him a chance to meet the Prime Minister Cochin.
But he didn't meet the prime minister privately, but told Liu Che and Liu Tan the news. Not only that, he even wanted his father to send someone over to help him warm up the scene.
Oh, to put it bluntly, it was a warm-up. To put it bluntly, he needed someone to help him ease the atmosphere.
He is aware of his own faults, and his original personality is not very tactful. Even if he was timid when he first came through, it was just that he talked less and didn't communicate with people very much.
Being long-sleeved, good at dancing, and exquisite in all directions has never had anything to do with him.
In the past few years, in Liu Quyu's words, his arrogance has become more and more arrogant. Liu Che is doting on him, Liu Shi is coaxing him, and he has a very hard-tempered empress, and his words are becoming more and more choking. If the other party dares to make him unhappy, he dares to make the other party never happy.
Such a character is a big taboo in dealing with other countries, especially if they don't plan to fight with the Jiaozhi country at the moment, so they should be more tactful.
Liu Tan reckoned that it would be impossible for him to be tactful, so he might as well find someone.
It turned out that Liu Che and Liu Ju didn't expect that neither of them sent anyone. The two father and son had exactly the same personality in a certain aspect, and they both gave him a sentence: You can figure it out.
Liu Tan sighed deeply, and hoped that the prime minister's psychological endurance would be better, and he wouldn't be like King Cochin, who fainted from fright when he saw a firecracker.
When the prime minister of Jiaozhi Kingdom came here, he didn't bring a few people with him, and he didn't even wear official uniforms. He just came in casual clothes and brought two attendants.
Liu Tan looked at the clothes he was wearing and it became more and more familiar to him, and then he realized that it was similar to the clothes of their big men?
Because of the hot weather in Cochin, the clothes are mainly cool. In short, there are not many layers of fabric on the body, and even the key parts are covered when it is hottest.
But the big Han is different, the ordinary people of the big Han will also wear bunts in summer, but the princes and nobles will wear tighter ones, anyway, there is an ice basin.
At this time, the clothes that Prime Minister Jiaozhi wore were somewhat similar to the clothes of a big man, but they were not very similar in shape. Simply put, it was an imitation that only imitated the shape but not the essence.
But the prime minister walked over with his hands behind his back, looking quite calm.
However, Liu Tan always felt a little familiar.
While wondering, he stretched out his hand and said, "Please."
When the other party sat down, Liu Tan finally understood where the familiar feeling came from: This guy is imitating Liu Che!
He carefully recalled the other party's movements after entering the yard, and he became more and more sure that the other party was imitating his father, even the size of the steps was very similar.
It's a pity that no matter how similar the movements are, the appearance is far from the same, let alone the inside.
But... this person is not good at imitating his father, Liu Tan squinted his eyes and stared at Prime Minister Cochin with a somewhat unfriendly expression, thinking whether to deal with this person.
Prime Minister Jiaozhi sat down and said, "I'm bothering you late at night, and I hope His Highness will forgive you."
Liu Tan looked outside at the blush-tinged sky just after sunset, and felt that Jiaozhi Cheng's definition of the word "late night" might be different from his.
He had a headache and hoped that Prime Minister Jiaozhi would stop speaking Chinese if he could not understand the meaning of various Chinese words.
Yes, Prime Minister Jiaozhi probably wanted to show his sincerity by wearing the clothes of a big man and speaking Chinese with an awkward accent.
Of course, the accent doesn't matter. Many places in a territory as big as the Han have their own dialects, and the accents are also different when speaking elegant words.
However, the combination of these two similarities in appearance and dissimilarity in spirit made Liu Tan lose the desire to talk.
It's a pity that he still doesn't know the purpose of the other party's visit, so we still have to talk.
He took a deep breath, decided to bear it, and said: "It's not too late, but the time set by this king is embarrassing for Your Excellency, right?"
Jiaozhi Chenglian hurriedly smiled and said: "It's okay, it's also good to come out at dusk to enjoy the beautiful scenery."
Liu Tan asked someone to pour him a glass of chilled juice, "I just don't know why your Excellency came to visit in person?"
Prime Minister Cochin didn't answer him immediately, but took a sip of the juice with a cup of water.
After the ice-cold juice enters the stomach, I just feel refreshed.
After he finished feeling, he said: "I came this time to discuss with His Highness the matter of surrender."
Liu Tan was a little surprised: "Your king has changed his mind?"
Prime Minister Jiaozhi smiled and said nothing, Liu Tan instantly understood: "Who do you represent?"
Prime Minister Jiaozhi dipped in the water used to clean his hands and wrote a nine characters on the table.
Liu Tan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Ninth Prince?"
Prime Minister Jiaozhi nodded slightly: "Exactly."
Liu Tan's face darkened: "See off the guests!"
Prime Minister Jiaozhi probably didn't expect His Royal Highness King of the Northern Realm to be so happy, and he was going to see him off when he came up, so he quickly put down the water cup in his hand and said, "Wait a minute, what does Your Highness mean by this?"
Liu Tan looked at him coldly and said, "I originally thought that Your Excellency was sincere, but unexpectedly, Your Excellency came to amuse this King."
Prime Minister Jiaozhi leaned forward slightly: "Your Highness speaks a lot, no matter how bold I am, I dare not entertain His Highness, not to mention, what's the use of amusing Your Highness?"
Liu Tan looked at him seriously for a while before asking, "Are you really representing the Ninth Prince?"
Prime Minister Jiaozhi fumbled for a long time from his sleeve to find a bamboo tablet. Liu Tan looked down and found that it was the sign representing the Ninth Prince.
He thought for a while and said: "Then the king will trust you once, tell me, what do you want to talk about?"
Prime Minister Jiaozhi said: "I already know about the conversation between Your Highness and His Majesty the King. The conditions proposed by His Highness...We cannot accept all of them, but we can also discuss one or two things."
Liu Tan rolled his eyes in his heart, even a king who broke the Cochin Kingdom dared to call him His Majesty, didn't he see that he never called the King of Cochin?His Majesty is not suitable, and the other party may make a fuss about using His Majesty, so just forget it.
But he still asked: "Oh? You know it clearly, but what this king told the king of your country are just some simple plans. There are a lot of real things to talk about. Are you ready?"
Prime Minister Jiaozhi said: "There are comings and goings to make things happen. If I have sincerity, it's up to Your Highness."
Liu Tan said: "Okay, tomorrow you send someone to my house to pick up the bill, and then... let's have a good discussion."
Prime Minister Jiaozhi said with a smile: "In this case, I will not bother you much, and please Your Highness to rest earlier."
Liu Tan nodded, and watched Prime Minister Jiaozhi leave. He never expected that before he could make a move, there was already chaos in Jiaozhi Kingdom.
He thought for a while and said to Miao Rui: "Go and see what the father is doing now. If the father has important matters to deal with, then go and see the prince. If the prince is not free...then forget it."
Liu Tan's so-called important thing is to see if there are any beauties in Liu Che's place, but to be honest, Liu Che hasn't recruited many people to sleep with him these days.
First of all, the women here are a bit short, and most of them have darker skin, which is completely inconsistent with the mainstream aesthetics of big men. Under such circumstances, unless they are particularly good-looking, Liu Che will look down on them. These women are not as good-looking as the Queen Mother of Qi. .
But Queen Mother Qi, Liu Che would not recruit her either.
Liu Che's requirements for women are not only to look good, but also to have a sense of novelty or a common language. Unfortunately, the Queen Mother of Qi does not occupy either of these two categories. Anyway, Liu Che has been more obsessed with health preservation recently, and it is not a problem to avoid female sex.
When Miao Rui came back, he said: "Your Majesty is discussing politics with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Liu Tan was a little surprised: "Are you still discussing politics at this point?"
Miao Rui replied: "Yes, His Majesty let His Highness go."
Liu Tan originally didn't want to disturb the relationship between father and son, but since Liu Che opened his mouth, he tidied up his clothes and left.
When he passed by, Liu Che said as soon as he saw him, "If you want to come here, come here directly. Why do you send someone to spy secretly?"
Liu Tan paused and turned to look at Miao Rui, Miao Rui looked innocent: It's not something shameful for His Royal Highness to see if the emperor has time, why is he sneaking around?He asked someone to ask him openly, not to mention that he met Bu Fan at the door, even if it wasn't Bu Fan or other guards, how could he be sneaky.
As soon as Liu Tan saw Miao Rui's expression, he knew that Liu Che was teasing him, so he sat down and said very cryptically, "Isn't it because the father is busy, it would be bad if he disturbed the father."
Liu Che glanced at him and said, "I can see that you are very busy, do you want me to give you two people to keep you busy?"
At that time, Liu Tan was drinking honey water to quench his thirst. When he heard this sentence, he almost spit out a mouthful of water, and quickly waved his hands: "Forget it, forget it, it's too ugly, I don't have a good fortune to bear it."
Liu Ju also teased his younger brother and asked, "Then what do you think is not ugly?"
Liu Tan wiped his mouth, and said calmly, "Lu Xuan is like that."
Liu Che, Liu Ju: ...
After Liu Tan sent them back, he felt refreshed.
But he was really afraid that Liu Che would really give him a gift, and when he returned to the northern border country, maybe a family war would break out, or even... What if Lu Xuan knew about it and went straight to Chang'an?
If he catches up with him and hasn't returned, it is not impossible to kill him in Jiaozhi country.
So he resolutely and quickly changed the subject and said: "Father, Prime Minister Jiaozhi visited Erchen privately today, and Erchen thought that you really should return to Chang'an."
Liu Che:? ? ? ?
Is the first half of your sentence related to the second half?
