    Around the main hall of the house, there must be layers of defense by warriors wearing cloth robes and swords within five steps.  There are two tiers of tables and chairs on the left and right inside the gate. What is placed directly above is not a chair, but a row of tables and chairs.  On each table was a wooden sign with a name on it.  There were pens and inkstones, teacups, and even a plate of glutinous rice desserts on the table.  The tables in the entire meeting hall are arranged like a courtyard.  On both sides of the room, some musicians were sitting or standing ready with instruments.  Envoys from various countries and officials from various countries also found their seats one after another according to their names. Although it was noisy because there were too many people in the room, they seemed to be in good order.  Not long after, several painters came in with paper and ink tools for painting.  It was three o'clock in the morning and the weather was a bit hot. Everyone was drinking water and waiting for the alliance to begin.  But the chairs next to the wooden signs that read "Wang Pu, Privy Envoy of Daxu" and "Xiao Siwen, Chief Envoy of Liao State" were still empty.  At this time, a group of girls dressed in green robes and buns, disguised as men, came in. Each of them held a stack of papers and placed one on each table.  Everyone picked up the paper placed in front of them and looked at it. It read "Chanyuan Alliance" written in Chinese and Khitan.  The Koryo Kingdom, the Japanese Kingdom, as well as the Dangxiang people and the Tubo people have always had close contacts with the Central Plains. The history books of the Koryo Kingdom and the Japanese Kingdom were also written in Chinese, so the envoys sent should also be able to read Chinese.  At this moment, several people, including Wang Pu and Xiao Siwen, came in and were led to the upper level by the leading officials. Several Khitan people also saw the name plate on the table and found a place to sit down.  At this time, someone stood up first and bowed, and then people stood up one after another and saluted in various postures, "I'm waiting to pay homage to Privy Councilor Da Xu" Wang Pu stood up, clasped his fists to the left and right, and said, "I would like to thank all countries and regions for their contributions.  The envoy came to Chanzhou to witness the alliance between Xu and Liao. If Xu Yousi did not receive him well, I hope you will accept it." He waved his hands and said, "Dong, dong"  The drums beat, and the harp joins in.  A group of women wearing linen and leather clothes filed in. They had feathers in their hair and held wooden shields in their hands. They walked quickly to the middle of the hall and danced to the sound of drums.  Although they are dancing girls, their dance is very rough. They step out of the horse step in one step, their legs and feet are raised high when they step, and the shields in their hands dance at any time.  For a moment, the hall seemed to have returned to the barbaric era where people drank hair and drank blood. It was mysterious and unrestrained, and the atmosphere also changed accordingly.  The strange dance rhythm did not last long, and the dancers left after finishing their dance.  Immediately, a civil servant walked up to the upper side, opened the file and said loudly: "The two countries of Xu and Liao have been at war for a long time, and the soldiers and civilians have suffered for a long time. Now the monarchs and ministers of the Liao Kingdom propose an alliance. The imperial court has the common people in mind, is willing to turn the war into friendship, and do its best to make peace with the Liao Kingdom.  To settle the grudges, the monarchs and ministers of the two countries voluntarily negotiated and each sent envoys to make an alliance between brothers. Da Xu was his brother and Liao was his brother, and the Liao Kingdom recognized the entire territory of Jinzhou and Liaoxi Island occupied by Xu's army.  (Dalian Lushun) was ceded to Daxu, and the two countries were bounded by the Ling River (Daling River) in Jinzhou; Daxu's sea and land armies retreated, stopped attacking the Liao army, and then ended their harassment and attacks, and worked together for peace  " As soon as he finished speaking, an official held two files mounted with yellow silk and placed them in front of Wang Pu. Wang Pu dipped his pen on the inkstone twice, signed his name neatly, and then picked up the seal of the Privy Council and put it on the two files.  Use seal.  The official put away the file, walked a few steps eastward, and placed it in front of Xiao Siwen again.  Xiao Siwen picked up the file and read it first. At this time, his skin turned red and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.  He slowly stretched out his hand to pick up the pen, looked up and looked around, and saw countless eyes focused on him.  The painter beside the wall was working hard on painting, and people wearing various costumes were watching him witness everything Xiao Siwen had weighed the consequences of this matter countless times, but he was still panic-stricken at this moment.  The blame has been laid, but now can we stop taking the blame?  Xiao Siwen held a trace of luck in his heart. If he only took the blame for this humiliating covenant, he would still have a chance to survive after returning to the country This is why he chose to agree to the covenant.  I just hope there won¡¯t be any more mistakes and pressure, even if it¡¯s just a straw.  Xiao Siwen finally signed and sealed the file.  At this time, the mournful cries of cattle and sheep were heard outside, and after a while, officials came in carrying blood wine on wooden trays.  Wang Pu took a bowl first, raised it and turned to Xiao Siwen and said: "From today on, the two countries of Xu and Liao will turn enemies into friends. Please!" Xiao Siwen also picked up the bowl and drank with Wang Pu.  Wang Pu put down the bowl after drinking, stood up and said: "Everyone present, sign and pledge the file in front of you as a token of witness." At this time, the Korean envoy stood up and worshiped: "I dare not sign on this thing!" Wang ?He glanced at him and said, "Then there will be an empty table You can rest in the courtyard later. At noon, the court will host a banquet in honor of you." After saying this, he clasped his fists and left.  ¡­The eunuch Wang Zhong trotted over and stepped into a door.  Guo Shao was seen sitting on a stool with his back to the door, looking at a painting on the wall.  Wang Zhong immediately bowed and said: "The official family, the alliance has just been concluded. Xiao Siwen signed in front of everyone and made a blood alliance with Wang Shijun." Guo Shao's body seemed to relax a lot in an instant, and he said very calmly: "  The man in the painting is old and has only a few days to live. He is sitting alone in the snow, with a pure heart and no interest in anything. Even if he is rich and powerful and has children and grandchildren, what is the meaning of life? " Wang Zhong dare not?  Let's get down to business, and hurriedly echoed: "What the officials said is absolutely true." Guo Shao turned around, "So before you die, you don't have to be too complacent. Just do what you need to do, and take action when you need to." His speaking speed became faster.  , "You go and remind Wang Pu that before the luncheon, the Liao State must first send a deputy envoy to send the covenant back quickly, and at the same time send someone with the imperial edict to go with the Liao Deputy Envoy, so that he can watch the court fulfill the covenant with his own eyes.  , decreed a truce among the armies in western Liaoning." Wang Zhong held the fly whisk in his hand, bent down and said, "I obey the order." Guo Shao felt comfortable, stood up from his stool and breathed a sigh of relief, immediately putting aside his previous interest in ink painting.  Behind the head.  Waiting until noon, he and Fu Jinzhan, who lived in the back garden, changed their clothes and came to the banquet in the hall, surrounded by people.  Amidst the music of bells and drums, everyone at the banquet bowed and saluted the two of them, and they walked steadily to the upper seats and took their seats.  "Your Majesty, Queen, may you live forever!" The crowd shouted loudly.  "Everyone is safe." Guo Shao made a gesture, turned his head and glanced at Fu Jinzhan, and the two held up the wine glasses in a tacit understanding. Guo Shao said, "Congratulations to the world for peace." Wang Pu and others said one after another, "May everyone  The country and the people enjoy peace together" "The country is very lucky, and the people are very lucky" After everyone finished drinking, Guo Shao stretched out his arm and made a gentle gesture, asking people to sit down.  Then a group of girls filed in with delicacies and put more fish and meat on the banquet.  Not long after, an actor with white powder on his face came forward and said: "The villain is showing off his ugliness and rehearsing a play to entertain the officials, the queen and the princes. Please give me your permission." Guo Shao turned his head and Fu Jinzhan  Smiling and nodding slightly, he smiled and said: "Present it!" "Thank you, little man." said the actor.  Soon a group of actors came to the hall carrying props, "dong dong dong" A male actor wearing an animal skin hat with tall feathers on his head beat the leather drum.  While everyone was drinking and eating meat, they looked over with interest.  Envoys from various countries came to see the fun. There were fine wines, delicacies and programs, and most of them had happy smiles on their faces.  The male actor playing the drum sat down on a chair embroidered with tiger skin, spread his legs, held his head high and said, "I am the lord of the Great Horse Khanate. Come and worship me at once!" Other actors  He quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed with exaggerated movements: "The Great Khan is wise and mighty!" The king suddenly squeezed his brows together, pointed at a person on the ground and said angrily: "Come here, take this guy out and chop him down!" The kneeling man!  An actor shouted: "I'm wronged, what did I do wrong?" The king scolded: "I told you to wear a dog-skin hat, I told you to wear a dog-skin hat!" After that, he winked at the people around him.  "Hahaha" Everyone burst into laughter.  Immediately two actors came forward, one of them dragged the frightened actor aside by one arm.  Then he took out a wooden knife and chopped it at the actor who was kneeling on the ground. He also made a sound in his mouth: "Crack!" "Ah! I'm dead!" The person who was chopped fell to the ground with his arms stretched out.  Guo Shao, who was in the upper position, looked sideways at Xiao Siwen and saw Xiao Siwen's eyes widening and his face flushed with shame and anger.  The actors are still going on.  At this time, another man with black ink on his face came on the stage and said to the surrounding audience: "I am the Minister of Border Affairs of the Khanate, responsible for guarding Nanzhou. Nanzhou was occupied by the Malaysian Khanate. It has rich land and rich products.  . What a pity Alas!" He lowered his head and looked worried, then pointed at the king sitting on the tiger-skin chair and said to the audience, "I can't defend Nanzhou anymore. How can Dahan be so cruel?  Can you spare me? What should I do?" Immediately, a soldier came forward and knelt down: "General, something bad has happened! Nanzhou is besieged by the enemy!" "Ah!" The minister shook his head in shock.  After it fell off, he hurriedly lay on the ground to pick up his hat and put it on. He was shaking all over and put his hands into fists on his chin, "I'm so scared!" "Huh?" The Minister of Frontier Affairs was overjoyed and said, "Yes! The Great Khan is so cruel.  , so the Khanate is so weak. I stabbed the Great Khan to death, and the loss of Nanzhou was his fault.??!  Hum hum hum!  " Immediately, an actor with a wooden kitchen knife and an apron came up and came forward to pay homage: "General, I am the cook next to the Khan. I will help you stab the violent Khan to death!  "    "good!  "The feudal official waved his hands, put his mouth to the cook's ear and whispered. The cook got up, walked up to the actor playing the Khan with a kitchen knife, swung the kitchen knife and chopped it down. "Ah!  I'm dead!  " As Dahan fell down, he took a water bag and squeezed it, and the red juice rushed all over him. When the superior Guo Shao observed Xiao Siwen again, he saw that his hands were clenched into fists and the veins on his forehead were bulging, as if he was holding back something.  , and there was not only shame and anger in his eyes, but also a life-like fear.
