Li Xuandu said calmly: "I just said that he challenged me after asking Lao Khan for his life. I don't know what Yaomu Khan thinks, does Old Khan know that an envoy from the Central Plains has come to the royal court?"

Yaomu suddenly sweated and stared at Li Xuandu with a pair of narrow eyes, revealing a bit of fierceness, "But I don't know." ”

Li Xuandu smiled and said: "You Golden Horde people all say that the old Khan is extremely wise, and Yaomu Khan says that he doesn't know, do you think the old Khan will believe it?"

"Believe it or not, is there any difference?" Yaomu Huhan said calmly: "Could it be that Old Khan would punish his beloved son for a dead Central Plainsman?"

Li Xuandu said indifferently: "If Lao Khan only has one son, maybe not, but Lao Khan has four sons, and Lao Khan has too many choices." Yaomu Huhan, with all due respect, you are still too young, you don't know what secret manipulation is, and you don't know what the emperor's mind is, you only know how to be pampered and arrogant. Can a young man who can only rely on the favor of his parents and act wantonly can subdue the kings, and can he rule over the 100,000 iron horsemen of the Golden Horde?"

Yaomu suddenly sweated and shouted angrily, directly pulled out the scimitar on his waist, and slashed at Li Xuandu's face.

A thin red line appeared on Li Xuandu's forehead, but before the blood flowed out, the wound had already healed, and then he took the scimitar from Yaomu Khan's hand, and gently stroked the knife with his five fingers, and the sharp treasure knife shattered inch by inch, leaving only a bare hilt.

Li Xuandu's five fingers continued to exert force, kneading the handle of the knife into an iron ball, and throwing it aside, "Yaomu sweats, the emperor must learn to control his emotions, his heart has the danger of mountains and rivers, his chest has the depth of the city, his joy and anger are invisible, and the mountainslide is in front of him and his face does not change color, which is said to be calm when he is about to have a big event." At this point, Mingli Khan is much stronger than you. I don't think you would have had the slightest chance to fight him if it weren't for his old age. ”

As he spoke, Li Xuandu gently pressed his palm on Yaomu Khan's shoulder.

In an instant, all the maids appeared beside Li Xuandu, pointing at the vital points around Li Xuandu with various blades.

Li Xuandu was not afraid at all, but just looked at Yaomu and sweated.

At this moment, Yaomu suddenly sweated and gradually calmed down, still staring at Li Xuandu viciously, but there was no anger, "What do you mean?"

Li Xuan didn't rush to speak, but looked at the many maids surrounding him.

Yaomu Khan hesitated for a moment and waved his hand.

The waitresses slowly withdrew their blades and took a few steps back.

Li Xuandu gently patted Yaomu Khan's shoulder, and this action made Yaomu Khan slightly annoyed, but he didn't have a seizure, and he forcibly suppressed his anger.

Li Xuandu put his hands behind his back and said, "Does Yaomu Hu Khan know Emperor Shizong of the Great Wei Dynasty in the Central Plains? That is, Emperor Ming Yong, who is now the grandfather of Emperor Tianbao, the emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty. ”

Medicinal wood

Suddenly sweating was stunned, nodded and said, "I know." ”

Li Xuandu nodded and said: "Emperor Ming Yong believed, and realized the means of 'ruling by doing nothing' from the three thousand words of the Taishang Dao Ancestor, Emperor Ming Yong cultivated for twenty years, did not go to the court, did not listen to the government, but firmly held the power of the court in his hands. The so-called government is not self-serving, and everything is left to the people below to figure out the holy will. If you do it right, he will recognize that the credit lies with the emperor, and if you do it wrong, the responsibility will always be below, and the ministers will mistake me. It is better to be silent. In this way, if there is any fault of the imperial court, it is the fault of the cabinet and the celebrant supervisor, not the fault of the emperor, who is still holy and has no mistakes. ”

Yaomu suddenly frowned, as if he understood, but also seemed to be at a loss.

Li Xuandu continued: "There are two keys to such 'rule by inaction', one is that the emperor hides behind the scenes but wants to hold power, and the other is to set up a target in front of the stage. ”

Yaomu Khan finally understood, and his murderous intentions were revealed, "You say that I am the target erected by Old Khan, are you picking on the relationship between me and Eqige!"

"I haven't finished my words yet, and there is no need to be angry in a hurry. Li Xuandu waved his hand, "In our Central Plains, there is an allusion to the two abolished princes, an emperor has nine sons, the so-called dragon gives birth to nine sons, each is different, the nine sons in order to compete for the throne, open and secret fighting, among which the prince is the head of all the sons, to deal with the plot from all sides, the most difficult, and finally the emperor decided to depose the prince. But after the deposition of the crown prince, the situation of the princes is more complicated, even if the emperor has the intention to introduce a new prince, it is bound to repeat the mistakes of the old prince and be attacked by other princes, so in order to protect the new prince, he decided to reinstate the old prince. In this way, the old prince is in the light, the new prince is in the dark, all the attacks and plots are still concentrated on the old prince, and the new prince can slowly accumulate strength in a place that others can't notice, and after the old prince is disgusted by the ministers, the old emperor will depose the old prince again and calm the situation, and the new prince at this time has become a wing, and can smoothly take over the throne. This is the old emperor's plan to kill two birds with one stone. The old khan is the emperor, may I ask Yaomu Khan, do you think you are the old prince, or the new prince?"

Yaomu Khan's expression changed.

He is just arrogant, not a fool, even if he has the heart to deny it, he has to admit that what Li Xuandu said is quite reasonable. Over the years, the voices supporting him have become louder and louder, but the voices against him have also risen, and he seems to be beautiful, but in fact he is in an extremely dangerous position.

Yaomu Huhan took a deep breath, put away his thick murderous intention, and said: "But I still have Ehe's support, and Eqige loves Ehe the most." ”

Li Xuandu said lightly: "The most ruthless emperor's family, the emperor's grace, is not enough to believe." ”

Yaomu Khan asked, "Your Excellency thinks that I am the fake prince on the table, and the real prince is someone else. ”

Li Xuan didn't answer directly, but said: "If the old Khan intends to take over the throne of the Great Khan, then there will be no kings today."

Competing with each other. Let's ask, who can compete with Mingli Khan, who has the most powerful power among the kings, plus the support of the old Khan? There is no need to fight. But today, there is chaos in the royal court, which shows that the old Khan is disgusted with Mingli Khan and does not intend to hand over the position of Great Khan to Mingli Khan. I don't know if Yaomu Khan agrees with my statement?"

Yaomu Khan pondered for a moment and nodded.

Li Xuandu continued: "The old Khan does not intend to let Mingli Khan take over as the Great Khan, but Mingli Khan is extremely powerful and cannot be moved lightly. In this case, there are two possibilities, one is that the new Great Khan chosen by the Old Khan can compete with Mingli Khan, and the other is that the new Great Khan chosen by the Old Khan cannot compete with Mingli Khan. If it is the former, then Yaomu Khan is the real prince. If it is the latter, then Yaomu Kuhan is the fake prince on the table. ”

Yaomu Khan's face sank like water, his hands were clenched into fists, and he asked slowly: "If it is the second possibility, then why did Old Khan choose me?"

Li Xuan said without hesitation: "The big and small clans are sisters, but over the years, the little clan has been favored by the old khan and the big clan has been quite neglected, which makes the little clan extremely powerful in the royal court, not inferior to the kings." From this point of view, the old khan did not let Yaomu Kuhan counter Mingli Khan, but let Xiao Yan clan balance Mingli Khan. If the new Great Khan chosen by the Old Khan is neither Mingli Khan nor Yaomu Khan, then the two sisters, the Great Khan and the Little Khan, will unite with the outside world and join forces to fight against the new Great Khan. How could the new king, who had a shallow foundation, be an opponent? But if the old Khan chose Yaomu Khan on the surface, then the two sisters, the Great Khan and the Little Clan, would turn against each other for the sake of their son, and the old Khan did not need to make a move at all, so he solved two extremely difficult opponents for the new khan without much effort.

"In the art of war, there is a plan to kill people with a knife, the enemy is clear, the friend is undecided, lead the friend to kill the enemy, and do not contribute to it. As far as the old Khan is concerned, who is the enemy? Who is the friend? The old Khan borrowed the hand of the Xiao Yan clan to kill Mingli Khan and watched from the wall himself, which is to kill people with a knife. In the art of war, there is also a chain plan, and there is a plan after a plan. After borrowing a knife to kill, if the Xiao Yan clan and the big Yan clan are both defeated, then the old Khan can compete with the crane to win the fisherman's profit, and if one of them wins, he can also catch the cicada and the yellow finch behind. ”

Hearing this, cold sweat oozed from Yaomu Khan's forehead, and he said, "Your Excellency...... No, sir, dare to ask sir, why didn't Old Khan choose me?"

Li Xuandu said: "First, Yaomu Kuhan has been in the royal court for a long time, and he has no half-foot strength, so it is difficult to convince the public. Second, if Yaomu Khan becomes the new Great Khan, then Yaomu Khan's maternal family will threaten the golden bloodline, in the words of the Central Plains, this is a relative. Since the old Khan is very wise, how can he let his relatives sit on the throne? In my opinion, if Yaomu Khan wants to become a Great Khan, the little Khan cannot stay, but if there is no Xiao Khan, how can Yaomu Khan ascend to the position of the Great Khan?"

Yaomu Khan's face was pale and he didn't say a word.
