Chapter 424: Dialogue in the Castle

Yang Muyun was shocked when he heard this, "How can you abandon your adult and get out by yourself?" ”

"This official is already old," Yu Qian's expression was very indifferent, "It will soon be the year of knowing the destiny of heaven, you are still young, and the future of the Ming Dynasty needs a young man like you who is both civil and military." ”

"No matter what you say, my lord, I will not leave you in any way." Yang Muyun said categorically.

Looking at the resolute look on this young man's face, Yu Qian knew that it was useless to persuade him again, so he had to sigh lightly, "Then you must promise this official, you must protect yourself well, and you can't do meaningless things no matter what." ”

"Humble duty, remember!" Yang Muyun's heart was hot, and he bowed down and said.

————————————

Monolithic Fort, no more than 20 miles in radius, only two gates in front and back, the main street is a cross street. There are not too many intricate alleys and alleys in ordinary cities, so it is convenient to quickly assemble troops, and it is much more convenient to go out and defend the city. It is a typical border military fortress.

The barracks in the castle are neat, but most of them are mud houses made of rammed earth plywood, with herringbone roofs covered with thick firewood and grass soaked with yellow mud. It wasn't until I arrived at the center of the barracks that I saw five or six houses made of brick and stone. Needless to say, these houses were inhabited by the officers of the guard.

Because the people stationed here are all military households, and there are no ordinary urban Lishi farmers and industrial groups, the whole city is built simply and crudely.

King Sain Polo was imprisoned in the largest and most spacious house, which was cleaned, and even the cracks in the bricks of the blue brick floor were carefully cleaned without a trace of dust. There are dozens of soldiers guarding the outside of the house, and even there is a secret sentry on the roof, which shows that in addition to the restriction of movement, this prince is still quite favored.

But Sain Polo was in a very bad mood, and no one wanted to be a prisoner, especially him, the number two person in the Ross Ministry, and he felt very embarrassed to be captured by the Mingren.

"Once this king is allowed to get out of here," Sain Polo swore through gritted teeth, "this king will lead his troops to sweep this place to the ground, and shame on him." ”

As he paced fidgetily back and forth in the room, the door creaked open. He raised his eyes and opened his mouth in surprise, and the person who came was about forty miles away, dressed in a green cloth and wearing a square scarf, looking very handsome.

"Mr. Zhu......" Sain Polo's eyes widened, "why are you here?" ”

The person who came smiled slightly, "Zhu came to see the prince regardless of his safety, did the prince let me stand and talk?" ”

"Oh, please take a seat," Sain Polo asked hurriedly, "how did Mr. Zhu get in?" ”

Mr. Zhu smiled but did not answer.

Sain Polo's eyes lit up, "Mr. Zhu is here to save this king?" ”

"The prince seems to be staying well here," Mr. Zhu's eyes swept slightly in the room, "why rush out?" ”

"Alas, Mr. Zhu should stop making fun of this king," Sain Polo grinned bitterly, "This king spends his days here like a year, this is really unpleasant!" ”

"The entire monolithic fort is now a big military camp, and it is full of their soldiers and horses, even if Zhu takes the prince out of this room, it will be difficult to climb to the sky if he gets out of the monolithic fort."

"Then what are you doing here?" Sain Polo said abruptly.

"Why should the prince be angry? In three days, they will let the prince go," Mr. Zhu said with a smile: "Don't be in a hurry in these days, right?" ”

"Will they let this king go?" Sain Polo shook his head slightly, "This is just a delaying tactic for them." ”

"Didn't they just release Agadorji this morning?" Mr. Zhu's eyes flashed, "How can you break the appointment with you?" ”

"That's just the Ming people's temporary peace of mind in the hearts of the king's people," Sain Polo sneered, "Agadorji only has 10,000 men under his command, how can he compare with this king?" They were just afraid that the king would take immediate revenge. ”

"Things are not as the prince thought," Mr. Zhu smiled faintly, "You must know that now whether it is the Turat or the Chahar, they are all led by Prince Ashi Timur, and he originally asked the Ming army to let the prince come back first." ”

"Oh?" Sain Polo raised his eyebrows, obviously surprised.

"But the Red Sect's Zheroba intervened sideways, and secretly handed over a bottle of medicine to the envoy to give to the prince," Mr. Zhu said leisurely: "It is said that it can make the prince seriously ill."

one, so that the Ming army could let Agadorji come back first. ”

Sain Polo's face changed.

"It seems that the prince guessed it," Mr. Zhu glanced at him, "That bottle of medicine is not a disease-causing medicine, but a life-threatening medicine." ”

"He, how dare they ......" Sain Polo choked his chest.

"Sakhaba is the emperor who is not spoiled, and the entire Red Sect is loyal to the Golden Family, as for you, the prince of Rakat, what dare they do?" The corners of Mr. Zhu's mouth curled.

"Bang-" Sain Polo slapped his palm on the table, causing the cups and saucers to tremble.

"Does the prince think that only Da Ming is the enemy who can't get rid of it?" Mr. Zhu said: "The power of your Lus tribe has developed rapidly, and even the Chagatai Khan King of the Western Regions has supported you without spending any money, if you conquer the Duoyan Sanwei and Horqin tribes in the east, won't the entire Golden Family also bow down to you?"

Sain Polo's body shook, his eyes fixed on him.

"If the envoy acts according to Zheluopa's words, I am afraid that the prince will be seriously ill for a few days and then return to the west," Mr. Zhu smiled meaningfully, "Who will carry this black cauldron at that time?" The medicine was given by the Ming envoy, and the anger of the people could only be vented to Daming. The death of the prince is like the right arm of the first master, and the people of the Pyra will continue to fight each other with the Ming because they want to avenge the prince. With the help of the Ming Dynasty to weaken the strength of the Xuanluo Division, who will be the biggest winner on the grassland can only be the Erjin family flaunted by the descendants of the Great Yuan Miao. ”

"The fact that the king is now safe and sound shows that the envoy did not listen to Jeropa." Sain Polo said in a deep voice.

"That's right," Mr. Zhu said, "The envoy exposed the conspiracy of Jeropa, and the two sides tore their faces, and Jeroba wanted to kill the envoy, but was seriously injured by the envoy's guards......

"Isn't he dead? It's cheaper for him," Sain Polo's eyes narrowed slightly, "and when the king returns, I'll settle accounts with him." Glancing at Mr. Zhu, "But Agadorji was still put back first, is this what the envoy meant?" ”

"The prince also said that there are only 10,000 men under Agadorji," Mr. Zhu smiled, "so it would be more reassuring to let him go first." ”

"Well," Sain Polo's eyes closed slightly, and then suddenly opened, "Let's just sell this king a favor to Mingren." After a pause, he said slowly: "Mr. Zhu, did you come to this king to say this?" Are you really not going to save this king out? ”

"It's hard to get you out now," Mr. Zhu said, "Why don't you wait three days, maybe they really let you go back?" ”

"No, no," Sain Polo waved his hand impatiently, "aren't these Ming people stupid enough to let me go so that I can personally lead a large army to attack them?" Unless their heads are soaked in wine sacs. ”

"If I don't let you go, will more than 40,000 grassland cavalry obediently retreat?" Mr. Zhu smiled: "They will still call." You must know that the status of Agadorji is higher than that of Agadorji, whether the Aga Dorji admit it or not, it is the second highness of the Khan's court who led them to save the prince, and the Ming people do not kill you, it is Agadorji who captured Dushikou and saved the prince. The Ming people killed you, and Agadorji led the army to break through the Dushikou and avenge the prince. In short, it was you who shed the blood of the Tarat people, and the name of Agadorji of the Anga Dolji family was written on the credit book. ”

"This, this ......" Sain Polo was stunned.

"The fact that the prince was captured by the Ming army and made a prisoner will definitely be widely praised by those who support the Khan's court in the steppe to undermine the prestige of the prince. Even if the prince can return to the grassland unharmed, your prestige and influence will be much less than before. Tokhtobuhua and Sakhaba would also make a big deal out of it, thereby weakening the power of the Zoros tribe. ”

"So, what should the king do?" Sain Polo only felt his head buzz and his heart was a little confused.

"Just go back like this, the prince might as well take a gamble." Mr. Zhu smiled slightly.

"Bet, how to bet?" Sain Polo's heart moved.

"Go out and tell the soldiers who are guarding you outside, that you want to see Lord Luo Heng Xinluo, the governor of Xuanda." Mr. Zhu said.

"What did the king see him do?"

"You told him that you were going to Jingshi to see Emperor Ming."

"Does this king want to borrow it to see the Ming Emperor to gamble?" Sain Polo was a little confused.

"Yes, whether the prince can turn over or not, you have to rely on it

Meet this Emperor Ming. Mr. Zhu explained: "In these few open and secret battles with you, the Ming army is not bad, and they have all fallen behind. When you go to see Emperor Daming, you are giving Emperor Daming a step down......"

"Do you mean to let the Ming people sacrifice this king to the emperor of the Ming Kingdom?" Sain Polo's face changed.

"The prince's status is noble, how can he be a prisoner?" Mr. Zhu said with a smile: "Don't forget that there is a large army outside the gate as your backing, and you are going to negotiate with the Ming Emperor." In order to prevent your iron cavalry from invading the territory of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Emperor will reward you with a large reward, which will allow you to earn enough face to return to the grassland......"

"The Emperor of the Ming Kingdom will reward this king?" Sain Polo found it a little incredible.

"How not?" Mr. Zhu smiled, "The young army of the Son of Heaven was almost completely wiped out, more than half of the elite soldiers of Xuanda were lost, the army marched south, and the troops in the northern Xinjiang of the Ming Dynasty were even stretched to defense. The Ming Emperor made peace with you, which raised the value of the Rus Ministry, so that you could nominally compete with the Khan's court. ”

Sain Polo's mind was confused, and what Mr. Zhu said couldn't digest for a while.

"Will Luo Hengxin let this king enter Beijing to meet the emperor of the Ming Kingdom?" Sain Polo asked, after a moment's thought.

"How not?" Mr. Zhu sneered, "He led 30,000 Xuanda elites out of the fortress, but only brought back more than 10,000 remnants. He, the governor of Xuanda, cannot escape the blame, and only by sending you to the capital can he slightly cover up his sins of disadvantageous division and loss of troops. After a pause, "To put it bluntly, in the eyes of these Ming officials, you are a prisoner when you enter Beijing; In the eyes of Emperor Ming, you are here to ask him for peace; And on your side, it is to force the Ming Emperor to make peace with your people. The same thing, depending on what you say. ”

"Ridiculous, ridiculous!" Sain Polo shouted repeatedly, I don't know if it was because Mr. Zhu was ridiculous, or if the matter itself was ridiculous.

"If you can satisfy all parties, why not do it?" The corners of Mr. Zhu's mouth hooked, "To the Ming officials who are at war with you, they will be punished; For the Ming Emperor, it was to satisfy his vanity; As for you, it is to elevate the status of the Pyrats in the steppe, and you can send envoys to the Ming Dynasty outside the Khan's court alone, without having to rely on the name of the Khan's court. ”

Sain Polo paced back and forth in the room.

"Okay, this king, as Mr. Zhu said, will enter Beijing and see the emperor of the Ming Kingdom." Sain Polo looked up and said.

"Before this, you have to restrain the tens of thousands of horses outside the pass, you can't see the Ming Emperor, and the battle is still in full swing at the border pass!" Mr. Zhu said leisurely.

"Well......" Sain Polo pondered for a while and said, "My more than 20,000 cavalry are now under the command of Bulta, and he will never dare not listen to a word from this king." My nephews and nieces also listened to me, and their 10,000 people would not move. As for the 10,000 men of Agadorzi, who are directly subordinate to the Khan's court, I am afraid that they will not listen to the words of this king......"

"That's natural," Mr. Zhu's eyes curled, "If necessary, they can all put the prince to death, not to mention that your words are even less worth mentioning." ”

Sain Polo's body was shocked, and an imperceptible glint flashed in his eyes.

During the day, the Mongolian military camp was bustling with activity.

Under the command of several military lieutenants, a group of sturdy riders rode back and forth on horses, and they could ride on the backs of bumpy horses at extremely fast movement speeds, and the arrows hit the bull's-eye a hundred paces away, which was breathtaking.

There were also some burly warriors in the army, who stripped off their armor and showed their strong bodies and muscles, and wrestled with each other, and when one side was thrown to the ground, the other waved its thick arms and roared, and the crowd of onlookers burst into deafening cheers.

Leng Yifei leaned on the grass, looking at everything in front of him, without any expression on his face, as if nothing in this world could impress him. He couldn't bear to stay in the felt tent all the time, so he was helped out to get air. Next to him, Yang Muyun sat on the grass, frowning, as if thinking about something.

"Something?" Leng Yifei looked ahead, but this sentence was directed at him.

"Hmm," Yang Muyun seemed to suddenly wake up from his thoughts, and shook his head slightly, "No, no." ”
