Chapter Ninety-Four: Blame
Li Xuandu and his entourage came to the Golden Horde and saw Abe Chi again. Although Shi Wuyue, Ning Yi, and Huangfu Yuxiu were nominally Li Xuandu's entourage, in the eyes of the cowardly Xue Jun, they were all people of unknown origin, so they couldn't enter, and only let Li Xuandu enter the Golden Tent alone.
This was also expected by Li Xuandu, he asked the three of them to wait outside, entered the Golden Tent alone, and came to the Golden Palace of the Old Khan again.
Today, for some reason, it was dark in the palace, but as soon as Li Xuandu entered the outer hall, he noticed that there was a person in the dark.
Li Xuandu looked up at the throne of the old Khan, and there was a person sitting on it, it was the Khan of Lost Sweetness.
Lost Gan Khan said lightly: "The messenger is here. ”
Li Xuandu stretched out his five fingers, turned on the fire, and gave birth to a little bit of green flame in the palm of his hand, and then he waved his hand lightly, and this bit of green flame scattered and flew in all directions, falling on the extinguished candlesticks around him, and re-lit the candle.
In an instant, the whole outer hall was bright again, and there were already many gold decorations here, shining brightly under the light of the lamp.
Shgan Khan got up from his throne and said, "Messenger, you already know about the rebellion of Mingli Khan, right?"
Li Xuandu nodded and asked, "What about Old Khan?"
Ngan Khan said: "The old Khan is not here, the old Khan is in the dormitory. ”
An ominous premonition rose in Li Xuandu's heart, and he asked again, "Where is the national teacher?"
Ngan Khan said: "The national teacher is diagnosing the old Khan. ”
Li Xuandu slammed towards the dormitory. Shan Khan did not stop him, but slowly walked down the steps of the throne and walked unhurriedly towards the dormitory.
When Li Xuandu left the outer hall, passed through the middle hall, and came to the dormitory, it was also pitch black in the dormitory, and there was no unbearable feeling of heat, only a cold and dead silence remained. With a flick of his fingers, Li Xuandu rekindled the many candlesticks in the dormitory.
The lights illuminated the dormitory, but by this time the bed had been curtained.
Li Xuandu walked towards the bed without hesitation. Then he stretched out his hand and gently pulled open the curtain, and at this moment, the uneasiness in Li Xuandu's heart reached its peak, making his whole person tense, as if there was a top assassin hidden behind the curtain.
However, to Li Xuandu's surprise, there were no assassins behind the curtain, only a "baby" lying on it.
After a while, Li Xuandu could confirm that the bed was not a baby, but an old man who had shrunk several times, if he was not mistaken, this person was the wise and wise old Khan, the Golden Horde Khan who was regarded as a god by countless Golden Horde people.
Li Xuandu didn't know how to react for a while.
Outside the Golden Horde, Mingli Khan was still planning to force the old Khan into the palace, but the old Khan was already dead.
That's when it happened
, Li Xuandu heard the footsteps of Dangan Khan behind him, and there was also the voice of Dangan Khan, "The disease is in the intestines, the soup is ironed, the skin is within the reach of the needle and stone, the stomach is within the reach of the fire, and the bone marrow, where the order belongs, there is no choice but to do it." Now in the bone marrow, there is nothing to be done. ”
Li Xuandu looked at the ridiculous "baby" and said, "How sad it is that Old Khan's four sons want him to die early. ”
Sugaran Khan smiled: "This is the mystery of power, and no one can refuse. ”
Li Xuandu turned around, looked at Ngan Khan, and asked, "Who are you?"
He smiled and didn't answer, but said: "It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that Old Khan is dead." ”
Li Xuandu frowned, "What good will it do you if the old Khan is dead? Do you want to control the royal court? Now there are only half of the cowardly Xue army loyal to you, even if you can assess the civil strife in the royal court, kill Mingli Khan and Yaomu Khan, and forcibly add yellow robes, but you don't forget, in the northwest direction, there is also the army of Batu Khan, Batu Khan has now withdrawn from the royal court, and in the direction of Liaodong, there is also the army of Ili Khan. Whether it is Batu Khan or Iri Khan, it is not something that half of the cowardly Xue army you have at your disposal can compete with. ”
Ngan Khan said: "The royal court has long been divided, just like a big family with four generations in the same house, when the ancestor of the family is alive, there is a happy scene, but once the ancestor is dead, everyone has their own small calculations, and the separation and collapse will be in an instant." ”
Li Xuandu became more and more unsure of the intention of Gan Khan, and hesitated: "Don't you want to become the new Golden Horde Khan?"
Igan Khan said: "Whether you want to or not and whether you can be two different things, everyone in the world wants to live forever, but how many people can live forever? All the kings want to be the Great Khan of the Golden Horde, but there can only be one Great Khan." ”
Li Xuandu couldn't tell what he felt at this moment, the old Khan King who seemed to be in control of the world died like this, which made Li Xuandu faintly feel a sense of wrongness, it seems that this is also the trick of the old Khan, it is his trick to get rid of the golden cicada in order to seek immortality, but Li Xuandu's years of cognition are telling him that there is no trick in this world for mortals to live forever, the old Khan cannot live forever, he can only die, even if he does not die today, he will live for another twelve months at most.
At this moment, Li Xuandu felt something in his heart and looked back suddenly. At some point, a black-robed national teacher appeared in the dormitory, holding a snake staff in one hand and a blood-red stone in the other.
"Messenger, we meet again. ”
Different from the first meeting, the national teacher at this time was no longer approachable, and was full of mysterious and unfathomable intrigues, like a poisonous snake hidden in a cave, making Li Xuandu's hair stand on end, as if facing a great enemy.
Li Xuandu glanced at the blood-red stone in the hand of the national teacher, and asked knowingly: "National teacher, why is the old Khan?"
Die?"
The face of the national teacher was hidden in the shadow of the hood, he couldn't see his expression clearly, and his voice sounded faintly, "Lost Gan Khan has already said, the old Khan is sick to the bone marrow, and the fate of the priest belongs to it, and the medicine stone is hopeless." ”
Li Xuandu suddenly found himself in a very dangerous situation, just him, facing an immortal in the immortal realm, the best result was just to delay for a while like Zhang Jingshen that day, not to mention that it was Zhang Jingshen who occupied the location at that time, and it was the national teacher who occupied the location at this time. In this way, if the national teacher is determined to make a move against Li Xuandu, then Li Xuandu has no luck at all.
Li Xuandu felt that his body was a little stiff, so he changed his mouth and asked, "What is the purpose of asking me to come here today?"
Sugaran Khan smiled lightly: "Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that there is something I want to discuss with the envoy." ”
Li Xuandu asked, "What's the matter?"
Lost Khan said: "The envoy of the Central Plains, with high military strength, is a guest of the old Khan, and is quite trusted by the old Khan, but he disregarded the trust of the old Khan, and was bribed by the Xiao Yan clan and Yaomu Khan, assassinated the old Khan, and committed the crime of great rebellion. ”
Li Xuandu's face changed suddenly, he finally understood why Wagan Khan summoned him in the name of Old Khan yesterday, and he also figured out everything at this moment.
Li Xuandu said in a deep voice: "The wind and thunder vision of that day and the fainting of the old Khan's stroke were all done by the national teacher. ”
The national teacher nodded.
Li Xuandu continued: "After the old Khan fainted after a stroke, he naturally had to invite the national teacher to come for diagnosis and treatment, and at this time, the national teacher completely controlled the old Khan, the national teacher wanted the old Khan to wake up whenever he wanted, and the national teacher wanted the old Khan to issue whatever kind of orders he wanted, because the old Khan couldn't speak, and only the national teacher could communicate with the old Khan. In this case, the national teacher, in the name of the old Khan, ordered that the Khan be allowed to serve the sick, so that the Khan could rightfully control the Golden Horde. ”
"As for why he chose me to be the scapegoat, because on the day of Xiao Yan's birthday banquet, the old Khan's courtesy to me was visible to everyone, and he summoned me several times before and after, so if the Khan summoned me in the name of the old Khan, it would not arouse the suspicion of others. And my reason for 'killing' Lao Khan couldn't be simpler, because I am from the Central Plains, and the Golden Horde is hostile to the Central Plains, so I don't need a reason. This is a reason that will convince most people, and more importantly, you can also take this opportunity to point the finger at the Xiao Yan faction, and by the way, eliminate dissent. ”
"But there is no impermeable wall in the world, and what you do is not all seamless, Mingli Khan seems to be aware of it, so he decided to attack it in advance. ”
Ngan Khan couldn't help but applaud: "It's amazing, since the envoy has already figured it out, then I don't have to bother to explain it anymore, and the envoy can be a ghost." ”
