At this time, the king suddenly saw a girl carved from beautiful jade on the table, and she was holding a very small wine jug in her hand. Seeing this, Mohammed couldn't help but walk over, stretched out his hand and picked it up, looked left and right, and tilted his hand, and the wine came out of the mouth of the wine jug.

Yinareshu hurriedly walked over and said earnestly, "This is carved with jadeite, and it is called a beautiful teapot." ”

Mohammed immediately asked, "What jade, isn't it jade, and what is the difference between jadeite and jade?"

Yinalsu hurriedly pointed his finger and told him: "Jadeite is a green jadeite, it is translucent, much brighter than ordinary jade, and shiny, very precious. ”

"No matter how good and precious it is, it's still just a wine jug, just like the wine jug that burned out of the clay kiln, isn't it used to pour wine?"

"No, you can't say that, the same wine, put in this beauty pot, after pouring it out, the taste is very different, if the king does not believe it, he can try it immediately. ”

"Really? I don't believe it. As he spoke, Mohammed sat down on the edge of the table, and as he poured his wine, he said, "Let me come down and see what is so strange about this?"

He picked up the glass, took a sip gently, then took a sip of the wine, and couldn't help but say, "It's weird and fragrant, mellow and delicious, but your wine is originally a good wine, and if you pour it into other wine jugs, won't it be fragrant?"

Yinareshu went inside and took out an ordinary clay wine jug, put it on the table, and said to him: "Put it in the clay pot, and the wine poured out is certainly fragrant, but it is not as mellow and delicious as it, if you don't believe it, the king can try it again." ”

Mohammed really put the clay wine jug into the wine, poured it into the cup, took a sip, tasted it, took another sip, put it under his nose and sniffed it, and couldn't help but say in surprise: "Well, the aroma is not so strong." ”

Knowing that the king loved wine as much as his life, he saw that he was holding the beautiful woman's jug and couldn't put it down and tasted it lovingly, and said, "Report to the king, I have two new bottles of Russian vodka here, can you drink two glasses?"

When Mohammed heard this, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Is it really vodka?" ”

Yinareshu hurried into the room, carried a bottle of vodka in one hand, put it on the table, opened the other bottle casually, and brought it to the king: "Please taste it, the king." ”

Mohammed hurriedly took the bottle of vodka, put it under his nose, and said with praise as he sniffed it: "It smells so good!"

As he spoke, he took the beautiful teapot again, poured the vodka into it, and hurriedly poured a glass, but he didn't bother to smell it, so he brought it to his mouth, tilted his neck, drank it, and said in a voice: "Good wine, good wine!

Then he drank eight glasses in a row, wiped his lips with the back of his hand, and then said leisurely: "I haven't smelled wine for many days, especially this vodka from Russia, it's been a long time." ”

At this time, he stared at the beautiful woman with his eyes again, and couldn't help but ask Yinaleshu: "I ask you, this beautiful woman ...... What pot?"

"Beautiful woman carrying a pot. ”

"Yes, yes, where did you get this beautiful teapot......? Can you get one for me too?"

Yinareshu hurriedly walked over and said generously, "If the king likes it, you can take this beautiful woman's teapot." ”

As Mohammed spoke, he poured several glasses of wine in succession. This vodka is a well-known spirit, and the king has almost drunk the bottle intermittently, but it can already be seen that he is also very strong.

I saw that he was holding the beautiful teapot in his hand, and his mouth kept repeating: "This name is also... Good, beautiful... Female mention... The pot is really well carved and small... Exquisite, ingenious... Heavenly workmanship. ”

He did not tell him the origin of the beautiful woman's teapot, because it had been brought to Khorezm by a Mongol caravan to be sold, and all four hundred and fifty members of the caravan had been killed by him, and all the precious treasures belonged to him. It is said that there were two large carts of gold and silver treasures, and he gave some to his aunt the Empress Dowager Genkedun, and some to his cousin the queen, who liked the priceless beauty pot very much, so he kept it by his side, and now he was favored by the king, so he had to endure the pain of cutting his love.

At this time, Mohammad had fallen asleep on the table, and he raised his hand outward, and immediately walked in two beautiful maidens from outside the door, and asked him, "What does the lord command?"

Then he pointed to Mohammad and said to them, "Help the king into the house and rest." ”

The two maidens lifted Mohammed up, and the king immediately woke up, looked at the two maidens, and asked Enalsu, "Do you also know that I like women when I am drunk?"

"Of course I do, because wine is the matchmaker of beautiful women. ”

Enalsu glanced at the two maidens, and they smiled heartily, picked up Mohammed, and went into the house, and in a moment the woman's giggling and moaning voices were heard from within......

The next day, Mohammed prepared to go to the border city to inspect the felt. Before leaving the city, he repeatedly told Yinale: "You must be carefully defended and defend this city, otherwise Genghis Khan will not spare you." ”

After saying that, he took the beautiful woman and left. Who knew that when he arrived in the city of felt, he saw another unexpected scene, it turned out that the general who defended the city, Qiu Lihanfu, did not go to the city to set up defenses, but led his subordinates to gamble cards.

Mohammed stood quietly behind the crowd, deliberately not to alarm them with his retinue, and when he saw that Jorihanf had lost so badly, one of his men said mockingly, "What are you gambling with? Now that you have lost all you have lost, only the lord of the city of Felt remains, the head of the soldiers." ”

When Jorihanfu heard this, he immediately said angrily: "Okay, I will gamble with this city lord, and if anyone wins, I will give him the title of the soldier who defends the city." ”

After saying that, he was about to continue gambling, but Mohammed stepped forward and suddenly said to everyone: "I have given you the title of this city lord, and you can't use it for gambling." ”

One sentence stunned the crowd, and they all turned their heads and looked at their king Mohammed in bewilderment. At this time, the king did not speak, sat down in the position of Jorihanf, stretched out his hands, shuffled the cards with a flickering sound, and said calmly: "Please sit down, let's continue to gamble, I will bet for Jorihanf." As he spoke, the king shuffled his cards and said, "Bet your bets!"

In the blink of an eye, a miracle appeared, the king put the card on the table, and everyone's eyes looked at the card together, and they couldn't help but stick out their tongues in surprise, it turned out to be a heavenly card. They were stunned for a moment, and then they all took out all the money from their pockets and brought it to the king, and immediately the silver was piled up all over the table.

The king glanced up at Jorihanf, stretched out his hand and took off his hat, then took all the money on the table into his hat, and gave it to him, and then said to him, as well as to the people, "You are not as good as me in betting on pai gow, and I am not as good as you in defending the city and fighting." In front of you, the Mongols are about to fight, defending the city is the most important thing, you can't be careless, if you can't defend this city, Genghis Khan will cut off the heads on your neck, and you will never be able to gamble again. ”

When Jorikhamp heard this, he knelt down before the king with a thud and said with tears streaming down his face: "I beg the king to punish me, remove me from office, and cut off my head!"

Mohammed looked at him, silently stretched out his hand, pulled Jorihanf up, and said calmly, "Let's go to the city together!"

Later, Qiulihanfu finally mustered up the courage to ask: "Since the king has sent me to be in charge of guarding the city, why did he send Hongdu Rasi as a supervisor and let him interfere with my actions, isn't it not uneasy for me?"

When Mohammed heard this, the second monk was like a puzzled monk, and hurriedly asked: "How can there be such a thing? I didn't send Hongdu Rasi to be the overseer!"

Jorihanf said to himself in astonishment: "This is strange, he keeps saying that he has come to the city of Felt to be a prisoner on the order of the king, but the king does not know about this, is it ......?"

Mohammed suddenly asked, "Where is Hondurat now?"

Jorihanv looked embarrassed, and said in a snort: "He, after he came, he worked with me everywhere, so that I could not carry out the work of defending the city, I, I have taken him into custody, please, please, the king...... Punish me!"

At this time, Mohammed suddenly realized and said: "Ah, I see, because Hong Du Lasi came, you began to be passive and slack, did not strengthen the defense well, and even gambled with your subordinates on pai gow, and did not do anything?"

Qiu Lihanfu nodded in shame: "I asked the king to punish me, I really failed the king's hard work and hope. ”

As he listened to him, he thought to himself, "I wonder who sent Honduras?" and he could not help but remember that at the meeting that day, he had quarreled with Jorihanf, and that he had sent his brother?

After thinking for a while, it suddenly dawned on him, could it be her?, so Mohammad immediately commanded: "Quickly, go and release Honduras, and bring him to me." ”

As soon as he saw that the king was here, he immediately cried out as if he had seen a savior: "Please cousin-in-law, please save me, for he, he, Jorihanf will not listen to me, and will kill me!"

When Mohammad heard this, he replied, "I ask you, who sent you to the city of felt to be the overseer?"

After hearing this, Hongdu replied confidently: "The Queen Mother told me that the king wants me to come to the city of Yu to be a supervisor to monitor the movements of the Turkmen and prevent them from surrendering to the Mongols. ”

Mohammad immediately snorted and said to him, "It's none of your business, you can't be blamed, now you can go back, the city of felt doesn't need you to be a prisoner." ”

After hearing this, Hong Du was also a little surprised and asked, "Why? Didn't the Queen Mother say that you asked me to come?"

Mohammad could not speak clearly, so he said to him again: "Then go to the city of Sadhara and be the overseer of the art of Enal, for there are enough soldiers here." ”

But Hondurat did not want to be with his brother, and insisted that he should stay here, so he said, "I have a good quarrel with Yinalsu, and I will not go to the city of Ra, I will stay here, you ...... You treat me like a ball, kick here, kick there, I have an opinion. ”

At this time, Jolihanv had already learned the reason from the conversation between the two, and he had already understood the behavior of the queen mother Bald Genkedun to exclude the Turkmens, and when he saw that the king was a little embarrassed, he stepped forward and said: "Please don't let him go, but leave him in the felt, and be my helper." ”

Mohammad complained to his mother, thinking that she was a lot of nosy, and when he heard what Jorihanf said, he said, "Then what can be done? He can't help you here, so let him go back to Yulong Jiechi." ”

Qiulihanfu said: "As long as he doesn't interfere too much in military operations, there is nothing left in the felt, not to mention that the Queen Mother let him come, if you leave now, the Queen Mother will complain about you." ”

Mohammed thought for a while, and then said to him casually: "Listen to Honduras, if you want to stay in the felt, you can do it, but you can't come nonsense, you must obey the command of Jurihanf in case of trouble, and don't interfere with his military operations casually, if you can do this, you can stay." ”

Hondurat agreed, and the king was satisfied, believing that Jorikhamp could take care of the overall situation, and that these Turkmen were not as unconcerned about state affairs as the queen mother thought.

Isn't it too stupid to unite all the forces that can be united in the country, mobilize all positive factors, and plunge into the war against the Mongols under the current situation of the great enemy.

So Mohammad convened a meeting of the generals of the city and said to them: "The city of felt is located on the northern border, the closest to the Mongols, and Genghis Khan will definitely take it as an important target to attack. ”

The generals of the city of Felt led by Jolikhan reassured the king in unison that they were determined to defend the city with practical actions, blood and lives. So Mohammed left the felt with peace of mind and galloped to Yangji, another border city near the Aral Sea.
