Helian Cheng looked at Huangfu Jingyao with a smile: "If I say that I am here to negotiate a deal with you, how about it?" ”

Huangfu Jingyao remained silent: "Why is there still a deal to talk about between us?" This king killed your father, would you be willing to negotiate a deal with the enemy who killed your father? ”

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend, isn't it? Besides, I'm just making a deal with you, and when the deal is over, I'll still seek revenge on you. Helian Cheng said it bluntly.

"Okay, this king admires your directness, and says your conditions."

"You help me solve Wuli, and we will have a truce for the next three years, and in these three years, you do what you want, and I do what I want, how about it?" Helian Cheng said calmly.

"It seems that there is nothing to be gained from this sale." Huangfu Jingyao asked Helian City with his eyes.

"King Rui, once you and I join forces to solve Wuli, the Xiongnu will be in my pocket, and I can guarantee that I will not attack the Great Zhou soldiers again within ten years. King Rui, last time I was assassinated on the outskirts of Beijing, I was not blind, and your emperor probably wanted to get rid of you a long time ago. If in the past three years, the border is peaceful, then you Rui Wang will have enough time to solve his worries forever? "I have to say that Helian City does have a clear understanding of the situation in the Great Zhou.

"You mean this king will rebel? Helian City, are you trying to trap this king in injustice? ”

"King Rui, the Ming people don't say secret words, can your current situation still allow you to continue to be a loyal minister in the Great Zhou? Not to mention the situation in the court, even the charming imperial concubine in the palace, I'm afraid it is also the reason why you have to replace the emperor's respectful text. Helian Cheng spoke presumptuously, but it was the actual situation.

Huangfu Jingyao has his own plans in his heart, this deal of Helian City can be done, and compared to the threat of Helian City, the threat of the court and China needs to be solved more urgently. Huangfu Jingwen sent Shao Zhou to the border this time, plus Hua Yuhe has been at the border pass, just hoping to contain his forces at the border pass, coupled with the confrontation of the Xiongnu, many constraints, it is not so easy for him to make any moves for a while. Huangfu Jingwen's abacus Huangfu Jingyao knew early on that now Helian City proposed a truce, which was right in his arms. However, Helian City is not a fuel-efficient lamp, his ten years may change at any time, once he gains a firm foothold within the Xiongnu and regains control of the power of the various departments, I am afraid that the time for this transaction will come to an end.

Huangfu Jingyao smiled and said, "This business has been agreed by the king. ”

"Okay, Rui Wang is a cheerful person, but it's better for us not to go head-to-head in the near future, at least we have to make a show for a short time. When the time comes, I will work with you inside and outside to solve the problem in one fell swoop. Helian Cheng had already planned everything, and he just had to wait for Huangfu Jingyao to nod before he could start.

Helian Cheng and Huangfu Jingyao returned to their tents separately, starting tomorrow, things will come one by one, and what they have to do is to let everything go according to their own ideas.

"Who?" As soon as Helian Cheng entered the camp, he noticed that there was someone, and he came to the other party in a few steps, and without hesitation, he grabbed the other party's neck with one hand.

"It's me, ahem," the other man said intermittently, slapping the hand around his neck with his hand, "You let go." ”

Hearing the other party's voice, Helian Cheng immediately let go of his hand. It turned out to be Uloran.

"Why are you in my tent so late?" Helian walked over to the table and lit the candle on the table.

"I wanted to come to talk to you, but who knew that your tent was dark, and I fell asleep while waiting. Hey, I haven't asked you yet, why don't you rest in the camp at night and don't come back until now? Uloran asked curiously.

"I can't sleep, go out and walk around." Helian Cheng said perfunctorily,

"Next time you can't sleep, remember to call me, I'll talk to you." Uloran's innocent appearance made Helian Cheng a little reluctant to look at him directly.

"Alain, in fact, you don't need to care about me so much, Tata is now the strongest tribe of the Xiongnu, and your father will find you a person with the right door."

"Helian, I don't allow you to say such things again. What I like is you, not a prince, you should also know my temper, as long as I don't want to, my father can't force me. Wu Luolan said stubbornly, the first time she said it so plainly, even a prairie woman who was usually bold would blush.

"Don't have a conflict with your father for me, you see that Prince Huyan, who came to visit Tata a few days ago, is very good, and he cares about you very much." Helian didn't want to be emotionally entangled with Uloran, and he knew what he wanted from the first day he arrived in Tata.

"Don't say it, I don't mean anything to that Huyanhun. I ask you now, do you have a crush on someone? ”

"Why, Alain, you think too much. If I don't avenge my father for a day, I won't get married for a day. Although Helian Cheng denied it, a vague figure appeared in his mind.

"So, do you like me?" Uloran asked what had been on her mind for a long time.

"The princess is beautiful and generous, like a pearl of the grassland, who doesn't like it?"

Uloran smiled, Helian Cheng was right, Uloran is beautiful, but what he said liked and what Uroran thought about it did not mean the same thing.

"Okay Alain, it's hard at night, you go back and rest."

"Okay, then you should rest early."

Uloran left happily, she thought she had got the answer she wanted to hear, but Helian Cheng looked at the falling curtain for a long time, and he said silently in his heart: "Alain, don't blame me, for the sake of my father, for the sake of the Huns, I can only do this." ”

Thus, from March onwards, the armies of both sides barely began a few large-scale head-to-head battles, during which they were only petty and sneak attacks on each other. Wu Li once approached Helian Cheng and asked him when he would compete with Huangfu Jingyao, and Helian Cheng's answer was that Huangfu Jingyao had just returned to the border pass, and the morale of the Great Zhou was greatly boosted, and it was really not a wise move for Tata to fight hard at this time, and he had to wait for a suitable time to defeat the Zhou army in one fell swoop. Although Wu Li had doubts, he saw that Helian City was also reasonable, so he was also patiently waiting for the so-called "right time". And on Huangfu Jingyao's side, Shao Zhou and Hua Yuhe received a secret order from Huangfu Jingwen early in the morning, asking them to delay this war, and letting Huangfu Jingyao's troops fall into this war is the best way to drag Huangfu Jingyao back to Beijing, the longer the time, the greater the loss of Huangfu Jingyao's strength, which is also a good thing for Huangfu Jingwen. Therefore, the two sides are in a state of stalemate, and Shao Zhou and they are very happy to see it. The only thing that made a fuss was Qi Youshan, he had an upright temperament, and the Huns invaded and slaughtered the towns of the Great Zhou Dynasty made him very angry, and he couldn't wait to go into battle immediately and lead the army to kill the Huns without leaving a piece of armor. Helplessly, the emperor's military orders were like a mountain, and he had no choice but to disobey them, so he could only rub his hands in the big tent.
