Chapter Twenty-Eight: Medicinal Wood Sweat

Yaomu Khan asked, "Messenger of the Central Plains, what is your name?"

Li Xuandu originally wanted to answer: "The surname is Qin, and the double name is Xuance", but after thinking about it, he was afraid that Yaomu Huhan would understand it as "Qin Shuangming Xuance", so he had to answer succinctly: "My name is Qin Xuance." ”

Yaomu Huhan obviously had heard of the Qin family's name, squinted his eyes, and said, "You are from the Qin family, I heard that there is a beautiful girl in the Qin family, what is your relationship with her?"

Li Xuan said quietly: "That's my cousin." ”

Yaomu Huhan sighed: "Recently, I heard rumors that that beautiful girl is about to get married, to a big man from the East China Sea, is it true?"

Liaodong can know the news of Lao Khan, so it is reasonable for the Golden Horde to know the relevant news of Liaodong, Li Xuandu was not surprised, and said: "It is true." ”

Yaomu Huhan sighed: "I wonder if I can see with my own eyes what the East China Sea is like in my lifetime? I also heard that there is a big island in the sea, called Fenglan Prefecture, I wonder if I will be able to set foot in Fenglan Prefecture in my lifetime?"

Hearing Yaomu Khan mention Qin Su before, Li Xuan couldn't talk about how to be angry, he just thought that this future Khan King was a person who loved beauty, but now listening to his words, he knew that this person was actually a very ambitious person. You must know that from the Golden Horde to the East China Sea, there is an entire Great Wei in between, and if this person wants to see the East China Sea and land in Fenglan Prefecture, he must penetrate the entire Great Wei.

Li Xuan didn't speak.

Yaomu Khan gestured to Wushu: "Send a bowl of wine to the guests who have come from afar." ”

The Vullis got up and left.

Li Xuan did not refuse. He doesn't like to drink, it doesn't mean that he is not good at drinking, and he has a "leaky pass", and he is not afraid of what Yaomu Khan will do in wine.

After a while, Wu Shu turned around and came back, holding two stacked green jade bowls in his left hand and a wine jar in his right hand.

Li Xuandu glanced at the big bowl, afraid that it could be worth the capacity of a small wine jug.

Wu Shu poured two full bowls of wine and handed them to Li Xuandu and Yaomu Huhan respectively.

Yaomu Huhan raised the wine bowl: "I know that you Central Plains people are not used to drinking the mare's milk wine of our Golden Horde, so this bowl of wine is a strong wine from Jinju." ”

Li Xuandu smiled, raised the large green jade bowl and drank it all, and then lowered the bottom of the bowl to show that there was nothing left.

"Good man. Yaomu Kuhan praised it, and also drank it all, but his posture was much more arrogant than Li Xuandu's, and a lot of wine was spilled on his chest and beard.

Yaomu Huhan wiped the wine stain with his sleeve and said, "After drinking, you are friends, and friends should be sincere with each other." ”

Li Xuandu understood that this seemingly reckless and bold Yaomu Huhan was about to get to the point, and after he unintentionally glanced at the moon beside him, he nodded and said, "This is natural." ”

After Yaomu Huhan drank a bowl of wine, he had completely sobered up, no longer squinted, stared at Li Xuandu, and said slowly: "Since you came to the royal court to meet Lao Khan on the secret order of Zhao Zheng, the governor of Liaodong, can you tell me how Zhao Zheng wants to reply to Lao Khan?"

Li Xuan was not in a hurry to answer, he had already learned the two conditions offered by Lao Khan from Yue Li, and he also knew that Zhao Zheng had rejected them all, but he, a fake messenger, could completely agree to part of it on behalf of Zhao Zheng, so as to win the trust of the Golden Horde. After Li Xuandu pretended to be silent for a while, he said: "The first condition of the old Khan, to cede the land and become a minister, this is absolutely unacceptable, whoever agrees is a sinner in the Central Plains through the ages, and the lord of the ministry cannot afford this crime." ”

Yaomu Huhan said with a smile: "You Central Plains people have a saying that you ask for a lot of money to pay off the ground, if you don't offer an unacceptable condition, then how can you show the sincerity of another condition? Since Zhao Zheng sent you to meet Lao Khan, I think you have agreed to the second condition, that is, to form a brotherly alliance. ”

Li Xuandu said: "What Lord Ministries means is that the second condition can be negotiated slowly. ”

Directly agree to negotiate with him, there are many differences, but Yaomu Khan is not really asking for peace, he just doesn't want to have an incident at this critical moment to disrupt his plans, as for peace talks, it is good to agree directly, or to negotiate slowly, as long as the relationship between the two sides can be eased, and no major war will break out in a short time, it will be enough.

Hearing Li Xuandu say this, Yaomu Huhan did not have doubts, and the smile on his face became more and more intense: "Very good, this is a big matter, so naturally we have to discuss it in detail." ”

After that, he looked at the moon again and parted: "Old Yue, you have merit, I want to reward you, say, what do you want?"

Yue parted and lowered her head, so that people couldn't see the expression on her face clearly, and said, "Don't dare to take credit." ”

Li Xuandu also looked at the moon parting, now only the two of them know the truth of the matter, without the Central Plains envoy, everything is a scam, if the matter is revealed, the fate of the moon parting can be imagined. So now, even if Li Xuandu recovers the sword qi in Yue Li's body, Yue Li's parting will not expose Li Xuandu's identity, and the two are already in the same boat. However, the parting of the month is also a big-hearted person, without the slightest panic, at this time to say "dare not take credit", it seems to be humble, but it is actually the truth. She failed to negotiate and lead the wolf into the house, where did the credit come from, and the sin was almost the same.

Yaomu Huhan didn't suspect it, and said with a smile: "Lao Yue, although you are a few years older than me, we grew up together, and you are now more and more like a person from the Central Plains, full of hypocrisy and lack of sincerity." ”

Yue parted and raised his head: "There is a saying among the Central Plains people, called: 'Those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black', I have dealt with the Central Plains people a lot, and I have naturally contaminated their habits." ”

Yaomu Huhan instructed the Wushu beside him: "Wushu, since Lao Yue refuses to speak, then I will make the decision for her, you go to the treasury and get the wooden box that the Yan clan gave me." ”

The Vullis nodded and got up to leave.

After Li Xuandu entered the royal court, he rarely spoke, and he had been watching these royal court magnates coldly, and then deduced the situation in the royal court through the words and deeds of these powerful people. It is said that if you listen to it, you will be clear and biased, and Li Xuan doesn't want to just listen to the words of the moon's parting, so as not to be calculated by the month's parting.

However, he can't be passive all the time, and occasionally he has to take the initiative to attack, so when Yaomu Huhan was in a good mood, Li Xuandu asked coldly: "Dare to ask Yaomu Huhan, when can I see Old Khan?"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly cooled down.

The smile on Yaomu Huhan's face had disappeared, and he didn't see Fang Cai's affection, and his eyes were cold.

Li Xuan is not surprised, let alone afraid, he has seen a lot of this kind of powerful style. When he can use it, he is a corporal, he can't wait to eat and sleep together, and even his wife and children can give it away, but once he is touched by the sore spot, he immediately turns his face and denies people, and there is no affection at all. In the final analysis, these high-ranking magnates are just pretending, and they never regard those "untouchables" as equal people in their hearts.

Yue parted with a worried face, it seemed that she was worried that Yaomu Huhan would be angry, but in fact, she was afraid that Li Xuandu would be angry, she had seen how powerful Li Xuandu was, at such a close distance, Li Xuandu wanted to take Yaomu Huhan's life, it was really like taking things.

Yaomu Huhan stared at Li Xuandu and asked with a bit of anger, "Do you think this king can't be the master?"

Li Xuandu deliberately showed a little panic, and replied cautiously: "Don't dare, it's just that the order of the ministry is to let me meet the Great Khan of the Golden Horde, if I don't even see the face of the old Khan, after returning to Liaodong, I am afraid that I will be punished by the ministry, and I hope that Yaomu Khan will understand." ”

Yaomu Khan was silent for a moment, and suddenly a smile appeared on his face: "You are right, the old Khan is the master of the Golden Horde, and such a major event naturally has to be told to the old Khan." However, Lao Khan has been unwell recently, and it is inconvenient to see guests, so this matter is temporarily handled by this king. ”

What Yaomu Kuhan said was roughly the same as Li Xuandu's guess, and he didn't want to completely anger Yaomu Kuhan, so he stopped talking.

Seeing that Li Xuan did not disobey him, Yaomu Huhan took the initiative to take a few steps forward and held Li Xuandu's arm to express his closeness, and at the same time let out a hearty laughing sound.

Li Xuandu was unmoved, but he pretended to be flattered on his face.

Yaomu Huhan felt that this envoy of the Central Plains was still of great use, so he had to appease a few words: "Don't worry, Eqige loves Ehe the most, and on the day of Ehe's birthday, Eqige will definitely appear, so I will introduce you to Eqige." ”

In the Golden Horde, Eqige means father, Ehe means mother, Yaomu Khan does not call Lao Khan and Yan, but deliberately says so, but it shows Lao Khan's love for him.

Li Xuandu naturally nodded and agreed, and achieved the goal of participating in Xiao Yan's birthday banquet.
