Chapter 68: A Difficult Choice

Last month, Xiao Feiqing and Chu Yang's sister Chu Han got married, causing a sensation in the entire capital. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info the emperor personally went out of the palace, the abbot wedding, and the ministers of the court and the central government were fully attended. It can be said that the Xiao family in the capital was very prosperous for a while.

The newlywed has been less than a month, which is the most sweet time, but Xiao Feiqing can't feel any happiness. Although at home, Xiao Feiqing also takes good care of Chu Han, but it is by no means the kind of affection that a husband has for his wife. Chu Han also knew this very well in his heart.

The emperor pointed out that he would marry, Chu Han was unwilling to marry, and after marriage, Chu Han also felt that Xiao Feiqing's kindness to himself was just a last resort pity. I pity this emotionless marriage, but I want to bind my life, pity my husband, and I already have others in my heart. Chu Han knew that even if he didn't marry Xiao Feiqing, the emperor would arrange someone else to be his husband, the order of his parents, and the words of the matchmaker, since ancient times, everyone has come over like this.

Chu Han is also considerate and docile to Xiao Feiqing, the two of them really do the same thing, respect each other like guests, in the eyes of outsiders, they are a couple with excellent feelings, but because of this, they are more and more like husband and wife, just polite outsiders who live together.

Zhao Wenzheng sent Chu Yang to fight, and only then did he have the scene of Chen Guo's army pressing the border in front.

When Yu Ruyan heard about Chen Guo's army, she also guessed that it must be because the military rations were robbed, and Chen Guo couldn't swallow this breath, so the army pressed the border and forced the Tucson tribe.

"Great Khan, according to the report of the spies, this time the army of Chen Guo has been stationed at the border for several days, but there is no intention of attacking." Bayindao.

Hu Qitu sneered: "Zhao Wenzheng, this kid, sent a large army and didn't fight, what did he want to do?" ”

Bayin said: "Great Khan, the Han people just like these conspiracy tracks, which are like our grasslands, and if you say that you will start a war, you will start a war!" ”

"They sent a large army, no doubt because I robbed the army rations a while ago and came to ask for it." Hu Qitu said.

"The minister is just worried that Zhao Wenzheng, this kid is scheming, and in addition to begging for military rations, there are other conspiracies." Bayindao.

Hearing the word "other conspiracy", the first thing that came to Huqitu's mind was Yu Ruyan. Could it be that Zhao Wenzheng wants to ask for Yu Ruyan in addition to military rations? But soon he denied this possibility, Zhao Wenzheng had already sent her here, how could she provoke a war because of a sinner?

As he was talking, a soldier outside came to report: "Great Khan, Chu Yang, the general of the Chen State, sent someone to deliver a letter of state and a letter." ”

"Bring it in." Huqitu said.

After receiving the letter and letter, Hu Qitu opened it and read it, and it was written that he hoped to use the military rations as a gift and asked for an alliance with the Tucsan tribe. On the letter is Zhao Wenzheng's handwritten letter, hoping that he can remain quiet and let Yu Ruyan go.

Hu Qitu snorted: "Chen Guo, the little emperor, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?" ”

Bayin took the letter of state and Zhao Wenzheng's letter and read it again, and wondered: "That little emperor of Chen Guo, why do you have to return Mr. Yun?" ”

"This ...... I don't know. What do you think about the Alliance? Huqitu asked.

Bayin said: "The minister thinks that you don't need to pay attention to him. Those Han emperors are cunning and treacherous, who knows what is bad behind the alliance? ”

Hu Qitu took the letter and hit Bayin on the head, and said with a look of hatred that iron is not made of steel: "If you don't read more books, you will only show timidity!" ”

At this time, Zhan Feng came in with a smile and said, "The Great Khan played well, I would have asked him to study more a long time ago, but Bayin just didn't listen." ”

"Mr. Zhan takes a seat." Hu Qitu smiled and said, "Bayin, you keep saying that the Han emperor is treacherous and cunning, which is why we Huns can only entrench here and cannot be the king of the Han people." ”

Zhan Feng smiled and said, "What the Great Khan said is extremely true. After learning it, it will not be slack off for a long time, and it will be successful, and I don't know its faintness and mediocrity. Tomorrow, you can also go to the school and read with the children. ”

Hu Qitu laughed and said, Bayin looked embarrassed, and said: "Mr. Zhan is naturally talented and learned, but now that the army is pressing, don't always make fun of me, let's help the Great Khan get an idea." ”

After Zhan Feng read the letter of state and the letter, he smiled and said, "Great Khan, I think this trip is okay." You can promise to form an alliance with Chen Guo and contain Qi State. ”

"Why?" Bayin asked.

Zhan Feng smiled and said, "Great Khan, you are also familiar with military books, so you should know what is at stake. In fact, there is no harm in forming an alliance, Chen Guo uses us to contain Qi State, and we can also take the opportunity of forming an alliance to ask Chen Guo for finances, or open the gate for trade. None of this is harmful to us Tucson tribes. ”

"Sir is right, there are never permanent enemies on the battlefield, and there are no permanent friends." Hu Qitu said, "Those countries in the Central Plains are also allied today and attack each other tomorrow. Alliances, we can agree. That...... What about Mr. Yun? ”

Zhan Feng said: "At the beginning, I also wondered about Zhao Wenzheng's approach, a person who was guilty of being punished, why did the king of a country write to the Great Khan in his own hand, asking for this person?" Zhao Wenzheng's move shows the importance of this person even more, why don't we take advantage of this? ”

"How to use it?" Hu Qitu asked.

Zhan Feng said: "Use this person and ask Chen Guo for more conditions." ”

Bayin was a little unaccustomed to such an approach, and immediately retorted: "This is too villainous!" I'm the first to object! What kind of man is a man who uses a woman as a bargaining chip? ”

Zhan Feng ignored Bayin's objection, but said to Hu Qitu: "Great Khan, the soldiers are treacherous, and the emperor's art is the same. The Great Khan, the great husband of a man, sometimes has to make some trade-offs. ”

Hu Qitu looked at Zhan Feng's expression, and couldn't help but be silent, Bayin wanted to argue again, but was stopped by Hu Qitu's gesture: "You go out first, I'll be alone and quiet." ”

At night, Hu Qitu stood outside Yu Ruyan's felt tent for almost a whole night, and only returned to his felt tent at dawn. Hu Qitu pulled out the scimitar from the wall, and his eyes revealed infinite heartache and helplessness.

"Bayin, gather the army and bring Yu Ruyan over." Hu Qitu said coldly.

Bayin was stunned for a moment, and after making sure that he had heard correctly, he asked, "Great Khan, are you telling the truth?" ”

"Do as I command!" Huqitu shouted.

Unexpectedly, the Great Khan thought about it all night and made such a decision. Bayin nodded helplessly: "The minister knows." ”

Everyone said that the emperor was ruthless, and Hu Qitu sighed, he couldn't imagine that he had done such a ruthless thing. stood outside Yu Ruyan's felt tent for one night, thinking about all I wanted to do with her. It wasn't until dawn that Hu Qitu made up his mind in an instant. Doing so can not only form an alliance with Chen Guo, but also ask for more benefits, and it is also worth it for the sake of the clan. And containing the Qi State is not a matter for one tribe of the Tucsan tribe, and Zhao Wenzheng must also be interested in the power of the Thar tribe. He is the son-in-law of the Taal tribe, and he is adjacent to Chen and Qi, so it is presumably because of Zhao Wenzheng's choice to ally with him. Moreover, handing over Yu Ruyan can also make Concubine He let down her vigilance, thus making the alliance between the Taer tribe and herself more entrenched. No matter how you look at it, this is the best choice for yourself and your tribe.

However, it hurt her alone. This is the last thing Huqitu is willing to do, but he also has to do.

Hu Qitu held the scimitar, and the light of the knife was cold, reflecting the emperor's cold heart. Hu Qitu sneered, I couldn't imagine that I would be reduced to a person who wanted to exchange women for benefits.

Outside the door, Zhan Feng came in and saw Hu Qitu standing there in a daze. Yu Ruyan has been here these days, and in the rumors, Zhan Feng has heard some of them.

"Great Khan, since you have chosen, don't regret it." Zhan Feng said.

Bayin couldn't hear it, so he came in and said, "You said it lightly, tie your wife to the battlefield and try it!" ”

Zhan Feng said with a smile: "Bayin, aren't you the most disgusted with the sour and rotten spirit of us people who are literary and ink, how can you be willing to speak for Yun Ruo." ”

"How can men and women compare?" Bayin slammed into the air.

"Enough!" Hu Qitu interrupted unhappily: "Bayin, I asked you to gather the army, are you ready?" ”

Bayin was still unwilling and asked, "Great Khan, do you really want to tie Mr. Yun to the battlefield?" ”

Huqitu didn't answer, Bayin stepped forward and asked, "Great Khan, this move is not the work of a man's husband!" Mr. Yun is a weak woman, does the Great Khan really want to use her in exchange for the conditions of the call? You just got it, can you feel at ease? After all, Mr. Yun ......"

"How?!" Hu Qitu roared angrily, "Bayin, who am Mr. Yun? Who are we from the Tucsan tribe? ”

Bayin was stunned, only to see Hu Qitu's eyes red, and said coldly: "If Yun Ruo is a prisoner, it is just a prisoner that we captured at the beginning, and it is the same as those military rations and those women!" ”

Yu Ruyan had already been tied up and escorted to the door, and the words that Hu Qitu roared just now reached Yu Ruyan's ears word for word. Yu Ruyan sighed lightly, sure enough, the heart of the emperor is the same ruthless. Maybe he's a captive.

"Mr. Yun, Mr. Yun......" Su Rina cried and ran to her, "let the slave go for Mr." ”

Yu Ruyan hurriedly urged: "Go back quickly!" Surina, don't get involved in this! ”

"No, no! Su Rina can't watch Mr. Yun go to death, Su Rina goes to beg the Great Khan, and let the Great Khan promise the slave to die for you! ”

At this time, Hu Qitu and others walked out of the felt tent and saw Yu Ruyan tied up and standing outside the door.

Huqitu glared at Su Rina and gave Bayin a color, and Bayin immediately pulled Su Rina away. Hu Qitu glanced at Yu Ruyan, and with just one glance, he exhausted all the helplessness and pain.

"Let's go." Hu Qitu withdrew his gaze, stepped on his horse, and walked in front of the group.
