Chapter 2: Dry Sheep Town

Li Xuandu said goodbye to this enthusiastic general and came to the town. But in his heart, he was thinking about the Golden Horde.

The princess is the title of the Central Plains people, and the grassland people should call it the Yan family. "The Story of the Makeup Building" has a saying: "Yan Zhi, dyed powder for women's color, so the name of the Golden Tent wife 'Yan Shi', the name is as cute as Yan Zhi." "The wife of the king of the Khan, known as the Great Clan, and the rest of the concubines, each with their own titles, are: Zhuanqu Clan, Ninghu Clan, Tu Qi Clan, among which the Zhuanqu Clan and the Great Clan, are sisters of the same father and mother, so they are also called the Little Clan, the youngest of the four Clans, and the most loved by the Khan King. The youngest of the princes was her son. Unlike the primogeniture in the Central Plains, the Golden Horde had a custom of keeping the stove with the youngest son, with the eldest son separating the family and the younger son keeping the household, which meant that the other sons first divided the family and established the household, and the youngest son inherited the remaining property and status of the father.

Under this custom, the youngest prince became a strong contender for the throne of the Khan in terms of title, and at the same time held the elite cavalry given by the old Khan.

Xiao Yan's birthday, naturally have to do a big job, whether the old Khan King will show up, and what is the attitude of the princes and the rest of the Yan family, it can be seen at a glance, then Li Xuandu will arrive at the Golden Horde before Xiao Yan's birthday. Fortunately, Xiao Xuan's birthday is in the first month of spring in the coming year, and there are still more than two months to go, which is enough for Li Xuandu to rush to the royal court.

Li Xuandu had once taught Xie Pheasant how powerful he was in the imperial capital, and he was a little curious about what kind of woman this Xiao Yan clan whose status was similar to Xie Pheasant to some extent, and what kind of woman would she be, and she would never be an innocent woman who had no heart for a city.

Thinking of this, Li Xuan couldn't help but think of a conversation he had with his master many years ago. At that time, Li Xuandu was influenced by Zhang Suqing and had the idea of asking for his life for the people, but he was not clear about the way forward, so he just wanted to get rid of the magnates in Dijing, so he consulted Li Daoxu.

Li Daoxu said this: "The people of the world, you might as well distinguish them horizontally and vertically, and according to the vertical distinction, there are people from the Central Plains, grasslands, Dijing, Jinling, Liaodong, Northwest, Fenglanzhou, and Bosaozhou, and they can also be divided into people who are loyal to the Queen Mother, or people who follow Zhang Suqing." But divide the people of the world horizontally, there are only two kinds of people, the upper and the lower, to put it bluntly, the scholars who dominate others and the ordinary people who are dominated by others, according to this distinction, the Queen Mother and Zhang Suqing are the same people, they are both high-ranking rulers, and you and I are also in this class. Now if you want to ask for the lives of the people, will you not betray your own class?"

Many years later, Li Xuandu, who had experienced the changes in the imperial capital and had been expelled from the school, looked back and found that the master had already seen through the hearts of the world, but he chose a direction that was not right in Li Xuandu's opinion. In other words, Master is like Emperor Sejong back then, they are not blinded by others, they are not stupid, they know everything, they understand everything, but they are not willing to take that doomed difficult path.

According to Li Daoxu, although Xie Pheasant and Xiao Yan are hostile to each other, but both of them are the most powerful and noble women in their respective countries, so these two can be regarded as the same kind of people.

Li Xuandu thought in his heart: "Sooner or later, I have to face Xie Pheasant, and before I face Xie Pheasant, it is also good to see the methods of this little pheasant." ”

The town is not small, it is the last resting place in Liaodong, the local caravan in Liaodong is good, many caravans from the customs after a long journey, most of them have to rest here, replenish supplies, so the fish and dragons are mixed, among which there are many people with good backgrounds, most of them are the main affairs of the major caravans.

Li Xuan didn't go far before he saw a group of people coming towards him, very strong, there were burly men, who were still bare-chested in such a cold weather, middle-aged swordsmen with weathered faces, and beautiful women in leather armor with big bows on their backs, full of wild beauty. They were surrounded by an arrogant woman, this woman looked about thirty years old, beautiful appearance, and not quite the same as the Central Plains woman, not only appearance, but also gas, if you have to find a word to describe it, it should be heroic and sassy, with a man's heroic spirit. Looking at the woman's dress, she was dressed in a beautiful white fox fur robe, without the slightest variegation, and a huge ruby forehead ornament was decorated on her forehead, which was extremely dazzling. It is said that when you go out, you don't show your wealth when you go out, but this woman does the opposite, and she must rely on it.

Sure enough, beside the woman, there was also a lewd-looking dwarf, who was lying on his back, but his breath was long, obviously he had a good cultivation in his body, and his eyes were also extremely sharp and yin, which made people shudder.

With Li Xuandu's eyesight, it can be seen that this dwarf has about the cultivation of returning to the true realm, and it is not the way of the rivers and lakes of the Central Plains, so he should be a master of the Golden Horde. On the side of the Golden Horde, there is no need to deliberately test many times, as long as the person's identity and origin can be seen from the appearance and clothing, for example, the military masters always wear armor, because the Golden Horde lacks iron weapons, so the armor is very valuable, and it is basically carried with them; those who practice foreign kung fu like to show their bravery by showing their bravery; if they are wearing robes, most of them are shamans similar to alchemists. This group of people is all kinds of people, but it is complete, and it can be inferred from this that this woman is also of extraordinary origin.

Li Xuan didn't even want to provoke this woman who almost had the four big words "good coming" written on the door of her head, and avoided the roadside. The woman at the head just glanced at Li Xuandu, and did not have the bad luck of coming to Li Xuandu for no reason, so she took a group of subordinates away.

Li Xuandu sighed slightly in his heart, while fighting a war, he was communicating with each other, but this was not a contradiction, because both were for survival. There is no right or wrong, only success or failure.

Next, according to Li Xuandu's plan, he first found a place to stay here for a day, and then walked about five hundred miles northeast from here, there would be a war there, this is Jing Xiu's suggestion, as a Jianghu person, Li Xuandu has seen too many swords and swords, but he has not seen the real battlefield fighting, just have this opportunity, it is good to see it, Li Xuandu has no reason to refuse, he also wants to see what kind of style the iron cavalry suppressed the rivers and lakes in the heyday of the imperial court.

After that, he would return to the trade routes away from the battlefield and embark on his journey to the Golden Horde.

Li Xuandu said to himself: "The Great Wei court is in turmoil, but the Golden Horde court is not much better. No wonder Master would say that this world is actually a worse world, and whoever rots faster will die faster, and the rest of the people will eat what they have died, and there will be a peaceful year. ”

Li Xuandu suddenly lowered his voice: "Therefore, Liaodong Iron Riding into the customs may not be the best, but it can make the Great Wei rot more slowly, and then destroy the Golden Horde and the Northwest Great Zhou, and the world will be too peaceful." ”

Li Daoxu once said: "A generation does a generation's things, so there is no such thing as one person opening peace for all generations, one generation calms the war, one generation keeps the light and nourishes the obscurity, and one generation creates a prosperous world, and there is no reason to achieve it overnight." Li Xuandu always disagreed with this before, but now it seems that the master is right, the meal must be eaten one bite at a time, and the road must be taken step by step, so he is really in a hurry.

Li Xuandu let out a long breath of turbid air and muttered, "I'm not in a hurry." ”

He always thought that if the master was willing to help him, then all the problems would be solved, but the master was unwilling to help him, maybe it was because the master saw too clearly that he refused to help him, and if the master was willing to help him, then the master would not have such a deep understanding of the world as he is today. It's a dead knot that is hard to untie.

Just when Li Xuandu was in a trance, a man who was dressed as a Liaodong man with Li Xuandu walked towards him.

Li Xuandu came back to his senses and looked at the person who came, because the other party was walking straight towards him, so he asked directly: "I don't know what this brother is doing?"
