The ninth day of the first month.

As the atmosphere of the New Year gradually subsided, the cold Jianzhou City once again returned to its original desertion.

However, the Han slaves who ran back and forth in the wind and snow were very different from those years ago, although when they met each other, they still inevitably trembled, and the scars on their bodies were a few more than those years ago, but there was a high spirit and expectation between their eyebrows and eyes.

On the contrary, those who are dressed in brocade clothes are all like mourners, at least on the surface.

What led to such a change was a series of events caused by the Great Zhou envoy after he entered the city.

On the twenty-sixth day of the thirteenth year of Guangde, Zhou envoys were under the city of Jianzhou, and 13 Mongolian iron horsemen were killed, and they became famous for a while.

On the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month, Jianzhou Batu Lu Yeyan came to the door to challenge the Zhou envoy, and made an appointment to establish a life and death situation, and died under the fist of the Zhou envoy.

On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, Yeyan's wife and brother led a crowd to attack the embassy at night, and 17 people did not survive.

On the second day of the first month of the following year, the eldest prince Ale Buhua brought twelve Buku [wrestlers] to the door to help the fun, and three were killed and nine injured during the banquet, but he failed to shake the Zhou envoy by half a step.

On the third day of the first month, the Baya Camp Niu Lu recorded the Ezhen Harlu when the street arrow shot the Zhou envoy, the Zhou envoy threw a passing ox cart, missed, and then Harlu panicked and lost the horse's front hooves, seriously injured and disabled.

In the evening of the same day, Harlu's wife came to the door to scold, and was plundered into the embassy by the Zhou envoys, and did not dare to stop it left and right, so she flew to report to Harlu's relatives, and then gathered more than 100, but finally did not dare to enter.

The next day, the second elder brother and his neighbor Qi Tu went to say that they were together, and Harlu's wife had to get out of the rumor, and they were not allowed to merge for a few days.

Since then, the theory that Zhou Envoy is the reincarnation of the Heavenly Demon has spread far and wide, and said that his heavenly eyes are open and blood is splashed in five steps, and he can only be appeased without devouring people's souls.

On the sixth day of the first lunar month, the lord of the Houjin Kingdom intended to summon the envoys of the Great Zhou, but was blocked by the concubines and ministers.

The next day, the lord of the Later Jin Kingdom summoned the envoy of the Great Zhou alone.

Bang~

slapped the waist card on the fire kang, Yao Anmin scolded angrily: "Enter the thief!" These Jurchen melons seem to be dragging something on weekdays, but they don't think they are so daring! A few days ago, what cow recorded the forehead really, the mother-in-law was slept with by the surnamed Sun, and she didn't dare to say a word of; Now that the lord of the Jin Kingdom is in the hall, he doesn't even dare to see the face of the surname Sun! ”

Although it was daytime, because the room was sealed and dim, there was still an oil lamp lit on the kang table, and he slapped it, the candle flame flickered, and the figures in the four places trembled.

Zhang Xiucai, who was lying on the kang table writing something, looked up at Yao Anmin, put the brush on the vinegar dish that served as an inkstone, carefully took off his glasses, and treasured them into the deerskin bag.

When everything was cleaned up, he sneered: "If you are angry, you are looking for a tartar to scatter, what are you shouting at me here?" ”

"I ......"

Yao Anmin's eyes widened, but after all, he didn't dare to turn his face with Zhang Xiucai, the No. 2 person on this trip, and finally sat down on the kang in a dejected manner, and muttered cross-legged: "Aren't I in a hurry, the old thing surnamed Xu has been talking with Tatar for two days, who knows when he will hook up?" ”

"Sun Shaozong has been staying in the post house, and he has sent someone to buy food and clothing, so he can't find a chance to start at all!"

He complained a few words, turned his head to look at Zhang Xiucai again, but found that the other party had closed his eyes and was slowly rubbing Qingming's acupoint.

Yao Anmin was really a little angry at this time, and got up angrily and said: "Okay, okay, this errand is led by my old Yao himself, and it has nothing to do with you Zhang Qiye, right?" Then let's just stop working here and pack our bags and go back to Gansu as soon as possible! ”

As he shouted, he looked into the east room, obviously pointing to Vice Sect Leader Xue being able to come forward to administer justice.

However, after waiting for a long time, there was no movement in the east room.

And the White Lotus Sect members who were leaning against the wall and leaning against the cabinet were also like clay tires and wooden sculptures, and they didn't react to his words at all.

At this time, Yao Anmin was a little difficult to ride a tiger, gritted his teeth angrily and stared, and suddenly grabbed the waist card that entered and exited the inner city, turned around and walked out.

At this time, someone under the wall asked, "Didn't Lord Yao Xiang just come back?" Where is this going? ”

"Where else can I go?"

Yao Anmin said angrily: "Naturally, I went to find the turtle grandson surnamed Wu to inquire about the news!" ”

As he spoke, he pushed the door open and creaked away through the snow.

It was only at this time that Zhang Xiu got up unhurriedly and took what he had just written to the east room.

Deputy Sect Leader Xue was meditating cross-legged on the kang when he heard Zhang Xiucai's footsteps, slowly opened his eyes, and said softly: "Although it is useless, but he is in the heart of the Holy Sect, so he will not be too cold." ”

This is naturally Yao Anmin, who just left in a bad mood.

Zhang Xiucai's white fat face showed some smiles, but he did not respond to Vice Sect Leader Xue's words, but cherished it and sent the Chinese manuscript to Vice Sect Leader Xue.

Deputy Sect Leader Xue glanced at him again, and then took it over and studied it carefully.

After a while, he hesitated: "This rhetoric is a yes, but what if they refuse to take the bait?" ”

Zhang Xiucai spread his hands disapprenosingly: "Is there any other way to think now?" With such a provocation by the surname Sun, Wu Pu Hengduan still swallowed his anger, and even did not hesitate to bear the name of cowardice, and clearly made up his mind to take advantage of the court's unwillingness to annex North Korea to expand its strength. ”

"Relying on us alone, trying to make the Jurchens change their minds is tantamount to a fool's dream."

"And over there in the post house, the layout is airtight, and there is a god-killing array surnamed Sun, so there is no chance to start at all."

"The only feasible thing at the moment is to take advantage of the inconvenience of going back and forth inside and outside the customs to make something out of nothing and fan the flames!"

"Fortunately, the person who is stationed in Xingcheng now is Sun Shaozong's brother-in-law, I heard that this human nature is as fierce as fire, and he has loved his brother in every way since he was a child, so long as we plan carefully, it shouldn't be difficult to hide from him."

Deputy Sect Leader Xue had actually approved his plan a long time ago, otherwise Fang Cai would not have let Yao Anmin be angry and not come forward to appease him.

It's just that this matter is very important, if you can't use the power of the Jurchens to contain the nine-sided soldiers and horses of the Great Zhou, it will be even more difficult for the White Lotus Sect to do anything in the near future.

Therefore, when the matter comes, he cannot be unscrupulous.

Alas~

If Ge Chen could find the reincarnated saintess and reunite the cult members in one place, why should he and others rely on the Jurchen Tartars now?

With a sigh in his heart, Deputy Sect Leader Xue confirmed again: "That person is really available?" Don't ...... then."

"Your boss can rest assured, his wife and children are in the palm of our hands, and he thinks that he is highly poisonous, and he will never dare to disobey our orders!"

"That's good, that's good."

Deputy Sect Leader Xue nodded, his eyes jumped out of the window, and muttered to himself: "Next, just wait for Xu Furen to transmit the news of the past few days back to the Guannei, and then we will push the boat down the river, and it is said that the Tartar general cannot be humiliated, and he privately leads heavy troops to besiege and kill ......."

Zhang Xiucai's eyes were scorching: "And although Sun Shaozong was able to fight to the death, he was seriously injured and was trapped in the mountains and his life was on the verge of death!" ”

After a pause, he slapped his palm in mid-air: "As long as the Xingcheng side hears the wind and moves, it will be war or peace, but it will be up to the two of them!" ”
