Just when Yuan Xuan was bidding farewell to Gao, Gao Yuan suddenly asked, "General Yuan, have any of the people here been to the Yinshan area?" ”

Yuan Xuan was stunned, shook his head, and said: "The residents in the area of Yanmen Pass, there are not many people who go deep into the grassland realm, Yinshan is more than 2,000 miles away from here, I'm afraid few people have been to Yinshan. After a pause, he added: "But it can't be said that there is no at all, some people who escaped from the Xiongnu, or were hired by Xiongnu merchants, there will probably be some people." But that's something to look for. ”

Gao Yuan nodded and said, "Okay, you go and arrange someone to find it, and try to find a few people." ”

Yuan Xuan agreed, and then turned to leave. And after Yuan Xuan left, Li Yinghong asked: "What, what are you going to do to inquire about the situation in Yinshan?" Is it so difficult that you want to go on an expedition to Yinshan? ”

Gao Yuan said: "It is not necessarily to go on an expedition to Yinshan, but at least to make the reality of the Xiongnu clear, now the Xiongnu have sent the head of the right Xian Wang to lead 100,000 people to camp in Yinshan, this group of Xiongnu is too dangerous to us, we must understand the situation of the Xiongnu, and then according to the situation of the Xiongnu, decide our actions." ”

Li Yinghong said: "I heard that the Yinshan area is two or three thousand miles away from here, and the Xiongnu are stationed there, what danger can they have to us?" ”

Gao Yuan shook his head and said: "Two or three thousand miles is between the countries, maybe a long distance, but in the Saibei grassland, it is not too far, because the Huns are all cavalry troops, and the terrain on the grassland is flat, and there is no barrier from the pass fortress, so the distance of two or three thousand miles is about ten days, this time Karun's army, isn't it from the Xiongnu in Yinshan?" We can't let this distance despise the Huns. In addition, we don't know anything about the situation of the Xiongnu, let alone ......"

As the two were talking, they saw the curtain lifted, and Yun Yao had already walked in. And Geng Yanyu immediately greeted him and said, "Ah Yao is back, how did you talk to the clansmen?" Why is your face bad, is something wrong? ”

Yun Yao smiled and said, "Thank you, Sister Geng, I'm fine, I just talked about some things in the clan and cried for a while." ”

In fact, Gao Yuan and Li Yinghong could see that Yun Yao's face was not good-looking, but her eyes were not red, of course, she had cried, and she was upset, so Yun Yao's face was not good-looking, she must have heard something from Yun Juan and Yun Na's aunt and nephew?

Of course, Li Yinghong knew what was going on, so he glanced at Gao Yuan, and then turned to Yun Yao and said, "Ah Yao, if there is anything you can tell your husband, Yan Yu and I will go out first to see how the banquet is prepared." As he spoke, he pulled Geng Yanyu out of the tent.

Gao Yuan said: "Ah Yao, sit down and talk." ”

Yun Yao sat down, bit her lip, and said, "Brother Gao, do you and Ying Hong know something about the White Spirit Clan?" ”

Gao Yuan nodded and said, "We know some from Yun Na's little girl, but she is still young, so she doesn't know too much, and only knows some basic information about the Bai Ling Clan." Maybe Yun Juan knows more things, so you'd better tell me everything you talked about, of course, if it involves the secrets of the White Spirit Clan, you can not say it. ”

Yun Yao also nodded, his face was a little better, it seemed that Gao Yuan had already known, since he still let himself meet with Yun Juan's aunt and nephew, it meant that he completely believed in himself, so he said: "There is no secret that cannot be said." ”

It turned out that what Yun Na said about the situation of the Bai Ling clan was basically true, and Yun Na also guessed the purpose of this trip, but after all, she was still young, and there were many details that she didn't know, and Yun Juan was the leader of the women's side among the ten people sent by the Bai Ling clan this time, and she was also one of the three leaders of the whole team, so of course she knew more things than Yun Na, and what she said to Yun Yao was obviously stricter than Cheng Dù.

According to Yun Juan, before they set off, the great master of the clan had made a special trip to meet the three people they led, and told them that the purpose of this trip was to find a female master who was lost outside, and the big master also specially emphasized that this female master would be Guan Jian who was related to the survival of the Bailing clan, if this female master could not be found, the Bailing clan would be in danger of the destruction of the whole clan, and they must find this female master and bring her back to the clan. Therefore, Yun Juan also implored Yun Yao to rescue and returned to the Bailing Clan with them.

But Yun Yao asked Yun Juan about her life experience, but Yun Juan didn't know, and Yun Yao asked if she wanted to marry the male master of the clan according to the habits of the Bai Ling clan after returning to the Bai Ling clan, Yun Juan couldn't answer. Because Yun Juan also knew that Yun Yao had already married Gao Yuan, of course she couldn't answer Yun Yao's question. It's just a bitter struggle to save Yun Yao, if Yun Yao doesn't go back, then the Bai Ling clan will inevitably perish, so please Yun Yao for the sake of the same clan, save the Bai Ling clan. Seeing Yun Juan like this, Yun Yao couldn't refuse Yun Juan in one go, so she had to leave Yun Juan's aunt's tent under the pretext of letting herself think about it.

After listening to Yun Yao's words, Gao Yuan said, "So how are you?" ”

Yun Yao was also a little dazed, shook her head, and said, "I don't know, although I am very willing to save my clansmen in my heart, I don't want to leave you, so I don't want to marry someone else, even if he is my clansman, I will only be your wife." But...... Brother Gao, what do you think I should do? ”

Gao Yuan gently held Yun Yao's waist and said, "I don't have a way to tell you what to do, from my heart, of course, I don't want you to leave me, but they are all your people, if you want to save them, you should also be, so I can only sue you, no matter what choice you make, I will not stop you, and I will support your decision." Do you understand? ”

Yun Yao was also grateful in her heart, put her head on Gao Yuan's shoulder, and said, "Brother Gao, you are so good." ”

Gao Yuan put his arm around Yun Yao's shoulders and said, "But there is one thing I want to remind you of, that is, the choice you make must really be out of your own mind, not influenced by others. As he spoke, Gao Yuan turned his body sideways, held Yun Yao's shoulders, looked straight into Yun Yao's eyes, and said, "A-Yao, your kindness is your greatest strength, but it is also your biggest weakness, so I will never allow anyone to take advantage of your kindness to force you to make a choice that goes against your true heart." ”

Yun Yao also looked at Gao Yuan's eyes, nodded slightly, and said, "I am white Brother Gao, thank you, I will make a choice according to my own inner thoughts." ”

Gao Yuan also patted Yun Yao on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't be in a hurry now, you can think about it slowly, there is still time." ”

Yun Yao said again: "By the way, Yun Juan also mentioned to me that there were ten people who came out together this time, and now there are eight people who are still trapped in the Hun camp in Yinshan, although there is no danger for the time being, but they can't get out, I hope that Brother Gao can think of a way to rescue the eight of them." And no matter what the decision I consider, they are all my people after all, so I also hope that Big Brother Gao can rescue the eight of them from the Hun camp without being embarrassed, but if it is difficult to do, then forget it. ”

Gao Yuan nodded and said, "Don't worry, I can also tell you, in fact, I am considering sending troops to attack the Xiongnu camp in Yinshan, but I haven't made a final decision yet, if I really decide to attack the Xiongnu camp in Yinshan, then I will definitely save the other eight people." ”

Yun Yao's face finally showed a knowing smile, and said, "Brother Gao, thank you." ”

Gao Yuan smiled: "Do we still need to say thank you between us?" It's not too early, the dinner is almost starting, let's go out. ”

Yun Yao also nodded, and walked out of the big tent with Gao Yuan. At this time, the sky was already approaching dusk, and the sky above the direction of the factory was already half the sky red by the firelight, and it was filled with the strong smell of barbecue.

The two came to the factory together, only to see that the factory was already full, and countless fires were lit, and cattle and sheep were barbecued. But the crowd sat around the fire and did not begin to eat. However, when the plateau came, wine was poured into each table.

The seats on the plateau are at the top end of the factory, and there is a certain distance from the other seats, leaving a vacant space. By this time, most of his seat was full. In turn, Li Yinghong, Geng Yanyu, Jiang Huanwu and his wife, Jiang Shuxia, Yuan Xuan, Ling Feng, and Yun Juan and Yun Na's aunt and nephew were also brought to this seat, and I don't know if Li Yinghong deliberately arranged it, or by coincidence, Ling Feng and Yun Na sat together, and there were only two vacant spaces between Li Yinghong and Yun Juan, which were obviously reserved for Gao Yuan and Yun Yao. And in the midst of the crowd, a bonfire was lit, and on the fire was a whole lamb that was almost roasted, and a strong smell of mutton rushed to the nose. And next to the bonfire, there are two jars of wine.

Seeing Gao Yuan and Yun Yao holding hands and walking very intimately, Yun Juan's eyes also erased a shadow, but Yun Na didn't realize anything, and beckoned to Yun Yao, shouting: "Sister Ayao, Brother Gao Yuan, you are finally here, come and sit, the sheep are all roasted." ”

Yun Yao smiled and sat beside Yun Juan, while in the circle of the plateau station, he picked up the wine bowl, faced the thousands of fires in front of him, and said: "Soldiers, as well as fellow villagers and elders, for this defeat of the Huns and for the relief of the rescued villagers, everyone made this first bowl of wine." As he spoke, he drank the wine.

And everyone present also said in unison: "Dry." They drank their wines. The banquet has officially begun.
