"Cruff!" Xiao Chuo opened the wooden door. She took out a hand towel to cover her hair while walking into the door.

Xiao Siwen, who was sitting on the futon next to the coffee table, immediately stood up and stared at her with wide eyes.

"Dad!" Xiao Chuo called out in Khitan words, his face was complicated and he almost cried, "They forced me to go on stage to dance... I didn't voluntarily make my hair like this. I want to go home all the time in Xuguo..."

"I understand, understand, understand," Xiao Siwen said with a melancholy expression, and stepped forward to grab Xiao Chuo's arm, "I don't have time to tell you about those things, sit down, and have something to say to you for your father."

Xiao Chuo seemed to have guessed something and asked, "What can my daughter do for her father?"

Xiao Siwen looked her up and down and asked in a low voice: "How does Guo Shao treat you?"

"He didn't make things difficult for me. Aunt Bai and Sister Lu took good care of me." Xiao Chuo said.

Xiao Siwen frowned and said, "Isn't this what my father said? Guo Shao... asked you to serve the bed?"

Xiao Chuo immediately shook his head and then said, "But the Emperor of Xu is fine to me. I'll beg him and let my father go!"

"It's too late!" Xiao Siwen shook his head immediately, "It's too late to do anything now. My father is not asking him to let go, but..." He looked very difficult to say, "I want to stay in Xu Country with Yanyan."

Xiao Chuo was stunned there and didn't come back to his senses for a moment.

Xiao Siwen said in a deep voice: "I will die when my father returns to China. Only by staying in Tokyo for Emperor Xu to protect him will there be a glimmer of hope."

"Dad wants to surrender to Xu Guo?" Xiao Chuo said.

Xiao Siwen's face rose and his eyes were covered with bloodshots, "Yanyan, no matter where you are, only your parents are your support. You can't watch your father die!"

After hearing this, Xiao Chuo said, "Daughter will ask the Emperor Xu immediately."

...The eunuch Wang Zhong walked to the water pavilion by the lake and bowed: "Report to the official family, Xiao Chuo asked for a meeting outside the Yuedong Gate. If the servants don't inform her, she won't leave."

At this time Fu Jinzhan had gone back to tidy up her appearance, and Guo Shao was still staying by the lake to watch the scenery and rest. He asked Wang Zhong casually: "What did you think I did?"

Wang Zhong bowed and said, "When Xiao Chuo returned to the official house, he didn't say anything, I don't know."

"It must be for her father at this time." Guo Shao stood up and pondered, "How else can I help Xiao Siwen now... Could it be that Xiao Siwen wants to admit defeat and surrender?"

Guo Shao turned his head and said, "Take Xiao Chuo here to see me."

Not long after, Wang Zhong brought Xiao Chuo in, clasped his fists and retreated. Xiao Chuo looked at Guo Shao with a gaze, and did not forget to squat down and called, "Your Majesty..."

Guo Shao's tone became gentle and he said sincerely, "I apologize to you about what happened at the banquet. No matter what grudges Xiao Siwen has with me, I should not blame the innocent people."

Xiao Chuo thought for a while, "Mrs. Zhou is also present. She can perform dances, so it's not too much for me to dance for everyone."

Guo Shao said this not because Xiao Chuo is a beautiful woman. Her skin is fair and tight. Although her body has not yet grown and her face is a little childish, Guo Shao thinks she is a beautiful little girl, like a bud in bud, emitting a fragrance.

He looked at Xiao Chuo's body with a careful look, not hiding his thoughts at all.

Since ancient times, there have never been a shortage of beauties in places where power and wealth are concentrated. Guo Shao did not have much desire at this time, but he still maintained a compassionate heart. Just like a person who came out of hunger, even if he had big fish and meat every day, he still felt a pity when he saw the food being dumped.

Guo Shao pondered for a moment, looked at Xiao Chuo and asked directly: "What do you want?"

Xiao Chuo was silent for a moment and said, "My father wants to stay in Tokyo, please be kind to your Majesty."

"Oh..." Guo Shao suddenly realized, as he guessed, Xiao Siwen could not surprise him.

Guo Shao said: "Yanyan, I can't do that."

"Why?" Xiao Chuo looked pleaded, his face turned red, and his eyes were still bold and looked at Guo Shao without evading, "As long as your Majesty agrees to this matter, Yan Yan is willing to agree to Your Majesty's request...any request!"

What can a teenage girl exchange for? Guo Shao can think of it with his toes... He can even be more indulgent at this time. All kinds of wastes and lustful things can appear in his mind, and even imagine that the pure and childish little girl in front of him shows various things that are in contrast to his appearance.

Guo Shao's eyes did not move away from her, but his hands subconsciously picked up a few tea cups on the table, took a sip of tea, wetting his hot lips and mouth.

He soon realized that Jinzhan was in the same yard, and his thoughts were a little confused. When he thought of his vows, he never felt that the thought in front of him was right... It was just that sincere feelings could not completely suppress those instinctive desires when facing temptation.

"Yan Yan." Guo Shao's voice was very soft, "Even if I am an emperor, I cannot control national affairs based on my personal preferences."

He didn't need to explain the joints to a teenage girl.

Xiao Chuo looked disappointed and said, "Then... can Your Majesty still meet your father?"

Guo Shao took a deep breath, exhaled again, and said, "This request is not difficult for me, yes. When you go out, you will say it is my intention."

After hearing this, Xiao Chuo bowed his knees and said withdrew.

Guo Shao had not moved his place and was waiting in the water pavilion. Sure enough, before he could wait for a long time, he heard the sound of opening the door. Guo Shao took his eyes back from the lake, turned around, and saw Xiao Siwen and the eunuch Wang Zhong standing at the door. Guo Shao waved his hand and Wang Zhong withdrew from the room.

Guo Shao remained silent and watched Xiao Siwen cover the wooden door with his back hand.

Suddenly, Xiao Siwen knelt in front with a "thump", "Xiao regrets what he has done before, and asks His Majesty the Emperor to leave a way out!"

Xiao Siwen was so happy, completely beyond Guo Shao's expectations. Because in Guo Shao's impression, Xiao Siwen was a person who cared about face and dignity.

Looking at the opponent's shameful blushing face, it seemed as if he was enduring great pain. Guo Shao suddenly felt a breath in his heart. He had not spoken for a long time, as if he was savoring the complete victory at this time, at least for a specific person.

"Envoy Xiao, how can I let you live a life?" Guo Shao said slowly.

Xiao Siwen said: "In the past, many Khitans joined the Central Plains dynasty. The guilty ministers regretted that they should not have opposed His Majesty. Now they are convinced and are desperate. They beg the Emperor to ignore his past grudges and leave the guilty ministers to beg him to serve his dog and horses!"

Guo Shao stood in front of the window with his body straight, glanced down at the person kneeling at his feet, and said with a blank expression: "Envoy Xiao is an envoy of the Liao Kingdom and has signed an alliance with our country. If you betray Liao Kingdom now and stay in Tokyo and become a minister of Daxu, then the contract...what is the difference between signing contracts with your left and right hands?"

Xiao Siwen raised his head and said with a complicated expression: "Isn't your Majesty's move to make the criminals take the blame, and really for the sake of peace between the two countries?"

Guo Shao sighed, "Enter Xiao, you think you are too important." He paused and said clearly, "Peace with the Liao Kingdom is in line with the benefits of our dynasty; the alliance is first of all, and respond to the previous despicable actions of Xiao Zhijun! Even if you don't consider these, once Xiao Zhijun rebels and flees, he will no longer be the king of the Northern Court of the Liao Kingdom. What's the use of me to keep you?"

After hearing this, Xiao Siwen was embarrassed and was extremely humiliated. His teeth were almost biting and bleeding. His chest was undulating, and his hands were clenched tightly into fists; Guo Shao just looked coldly. After a long time in the room, Xiao Siwen whispered: "Your Majesty shows mercy to the criminals, Yan Yan will at least not blame Your Majesty..."

Guo Shao smiled but said nothing.

Xiao Siwen's face had become like a pig's liver, and he said, "If I were to let me go, I wouldn't die immediately. I still have connections in the Great Liao Dynasty. Isn't your Majesty afraid that I will try to break the covenant?"

Guo Shao made a brief thought, and then said, "This morning, I told Envoy Xiao that I am looking forward to your response. Envoy Xiao might as well go back and let me wait and see you with admiration? If there are any ups and downs, it will definitely be very interesting."

When Xiao Siwen heard this, he raised his head, his expression was as rich and complex as changing clouds. He stood up "lively", but Guo Shao was still standing still and looking at him with interest.

Xiao Siwen stood for a moment, pressed his hand on his chest and bowed, "The Great Liao envoy left."

Guo Shao waved his hand: "No gifts, give away guests."

...Xiao Siwen returned to the ceremony hall and saw the remaining two deputy envoys packing their luggage and preparing to leave Chanzhou the next day.

When a deputy envoy saw Xiao Siwen, he had no respect at all. He looked at him coldly and hummed. Xiao Siwen was cold and he didn't care about the attitude of the deputy envoy.

At this time, Yang Gun stepped forward to greet him and said, "The king and minister of Xu have no sincerity, but just designed to humiliate the envoys of the Great Liao."

The deputy envoy just now couldn't help but say, "Deputy envoy Yang, he is already a sinner of the Great Liao Dynasty. Don't you understand?"

Yang Gun said: "What are the evidences for humiliating Mr. Xiao at the banquet?"

The deputy envoy said coldly: "It will spread soon, so what else can I use?"

When Xiao Siwen heard this, he couldn't help but say with gratitude: "I don't expect that in the end, only General Yang is his confidant."

Yang Gun sighed: "Mr. Xiao's kindness to save his life is unforgettable. Besides, the official has known Mr. Xiao for so long, but he still doesn't understand Mr. Xiao's loyalty?"

The hiking hall became quiet, Yang Gun and the two deputy envoys stopped talking, and Xiao Siwen was speechless. This ancient building seemed to have suddenly fallen into silence...

Before, Xiao Siwen learned that he was forced to go on a mission to Xu Guo, and he knew it was very bad, full of all kinds of fear and despair, and felt very panicked... But the real death period was foreseeable, but he became a little numb.

He didn't feel anything strongly at this time, but he didn't know where he was, as if he had seen the bottomless abyss ahead, so dark that there was no trace of light, as if it would never be dawn.
