Chen Shou followed Bayitash to the second floor and sat down, and from here, the scene below was in full view.

These people who have money and power in Bianliang are really unrestrained enough in this gold nest, Chen Shou shook his head secretly, all of this was seen by Bayitash.

Suddenly, Chen Shou soon realized that something was wrong, and the people under his command seemed to be overly familiar with this restaurant.

Looking down from the window where he was, Zhao Hong's bastard smiled and entered the restaurant without any serious appearance, thinking that he was secret, but he was seen clearly by himself, only to see this guy kissing a little orchid at the door like white jade.

The orchid's face turned red, and she stepped on him with hatred, and snorted in a low voice, and she couldn't hear anything from too far away, in short, it was very ambiguous.

Although she was scolding, the corners of her lips curled up, revealing three points of coquettish anger, but seven points of joy, and her blue eyes were like sea water.

Chen Shou smiled: "Your restaurant... Are you overly enthusiastic about my own soldiers? ”

Baytash laughed: "We are friends, and these are all as they should be. ”

Chen Shou stared at him and found that Bayitash was smiling very calmly, without a trace of panic.

Chen Shou suddenly understood what he meant, I am an outsider, and there is no threat to you, Chen Shou recognized this idea, and the mustard that had just risen in his heart was relieved a little, but he still decided to hold a meeting with his subordinates after going back.

Sugar-coated can be wanted, but cannonballs cannot be collected. He didn't want to make all his subordinates saints, he was a person with seven emotions and six desires, and forcibly suppressing the desires of his subordinates would only backfire. As long as they are loyal to you, that's enough.

"My friend, I have drunk the Qin Feng wine you provided me. If this wine could be sold from my homeland to the far west and south, you and I would have unimaginable riches. ”

Chen Shou's eyes lit up, did he lack money, he was too short.

He glanced at the very self-conscious prince and said slowly, "With all due respect, the prince will not leave his kingdom easily, unless it is a prince in distress. If I want to open this trade route, do I need to be the enemy of a vast empire? ”

The Qarakhanid Dynasty had just destroyed the Khotanese State at this time, and the whole country of Khotan believed in Buddhism, and the Qarakhanid Dynasty was the regime of Isilan.

They burned all the temples and sold all the monks into slavery. The princess and princess of Khotan were dragged to the bazaar and sold at the cheapest price to humiliate the royal family of Khotan.

Strings of human heads hung on the side of the road, and the whole country was like purgatory.

Baytash was supposed to be the victor, but unfortunately he lost in the infighting and fled to Daqi.

After listening to Chen Shou's words, he was not angry but happy, because Chen Shou recognized his dynasty.

Even the powerful ministers of the Great Qi knew the strength of the Qarakhanid, and Bayitash smiled and said, "My friend, I know that you know our Qarakhanid neighbor, the powerful King of Western Liang, Li Wei. His soldiers and horses are stronger than the lions of the grassland, and with his help, he can easily help me reclaim the throne that rightfully belongs to me. ”

Only then did Chen Shou understand why this birdman was so good to him, it turned out that he had taken a fancy to his relationship with Xiliang.

The General's Mansion defeated the Qiang, who had previously dominated the northwest and would bully the Qarakhanid from time to time.

Chen Shou picked up his wine glass and smiled, this cold winter is the last time of the Great Qi Dynasty, everyone can see it clearly, at this time, I will help you lobby Li Wei and send troops to the Western Regions?

"Baytash, I'm a very simple person, if you call me a friend, I'll help you, but not now."

Baytash interrupted him and said with a smile: "It's enough to have this sentence, I'm not a short-sighted person, I look forward to you climbing to your place in the next time." Come, I'll use your Han etiquette to toast to you. ”

Chen Shou was a little impressed by him, and after the two of them raised their heads and finished drinking, Baytash said: "My friend, Allah told us that the help of friends must be tried by each other. I don't have any soldiers right now, but if you need money, I can give you selfless help. ”

"Three more glasses! To tell you the truth, as soon as I saw you, I felt that we were fated, so I wanted to burn yellow paper with you and worship my brother! ”

---

In the palace, a courtyard that no one cares about, seems to have been abandoned for a long time.

There was also a white-headed palace maid, sweeping the fallen leaves, and her thin body trembled when the wind blew.

It was very cold in the hall, and a woman in a black palace dress sat on an old and whitened futon, and the tree-like bronze palace lamp next to it was not lit.

She has a dignified appearance,, and it doesn't seem to be amazing at first glance, but the more she looks at it, the more charming she becomes, and she looks like she should be the concubine of Emperor Yuan in the early days.

Emperor Gengyuan has lived for too long, and before he met Chen Shou, he was a concubine every year, and he was lustful. There are so many concubines in the harem, the huge palace can hardly fit it, and Emperor Yuan likes the new and hates the old, and many concubines end up miserable.

A young man dressed in yellow satin hurriedly ran in and almost knocked down the palace maid who was sweeping the floor.

The young man hurriedly dodged, stood up straight, and said unhappily, "Granny Su, why are you still sweeping the floor at this hour?" Whoever has a yard sweep at night. ”

The old palace maid smiled: "There are too many fallen leaves, and when the wind blows at night, it is very noisy, and she will not be able to sleep steadily." ”

The young man ignored him anymore, ran to the hall, and threw himself on the futon, "Mother, I can come to see you again!" ”

The woman in the black palace dress hugged the young man in her arms, and her face showed a hint of love.

"I don't come here anymore, the weather is getting colder and colder, and I'll freeze you again."

"I'm not afraid, mother, my father summoned us a few days ago. You know, the prince went too. ”

This young man is Zhao Cai, the king of Sui, in the arms of the woman, without the arrogance of that day, he is very filial.

Generally, the concubines who gave birth to princes have very high status, especially the princes of Emperor Gengyuan, only four survived.

But the concubine in front of her has a somewhat embarrassing background, so she has been left out in the cold. Not only did Emperor Gengyuan not come often, but even outsiders were silent, and no one dared to mention this person.

Just because, her father is the elder brother of Emperor Gengyuan, the prince of Fufeng, Zhao Lian.

Concubine Zhao, as the niece of Emperor Gengyuan, was forcibly occupied by him, which was already despised. Of course, I didn't dare to make a big noise, when Concubine Zhao was pregnant, Emperor Yuan wanted to kill this son several times, but he was worried that he didn't have many heirs, so he didn't do it.

"How's your father's complexion?" Concubine Zhao asked casually, but in her heart she wished that the old thing would die soon.

"His complexion is getting better and better, and everyone says that the Nine Turns Golden Pill is true. If it's true, I will definitely let Chen Shou refine the golden pill for my mother. ”

Concubine Zhao's expression changed, and her gaze became long, "Jin Dan... How could it be true. ”

What virtue does he have to gain the favor of the heavens...
