Chapter 118: Young Khan
"This is the Qingxu Lotus?" Liu Meiniang looked at the lotus flower in the jade box in amazement.
Sima Jiu nodded in acquiescence.
"Little guy, you still shouldn't die." Liu Meiniang's eyes suddenly turned red when she recalled the baby she picked up in the snow years ago, and the grumpy boy who bit her wrist and didn't let go.
Seeing this, Sima Jiu said: "The white handkerchief left by the red whisk has a description of the medicine method, and it can be boiled according to this." ”
After Liu Meiniang lost her mind for a while, she handed the package full of gold to Sima Jiu.
"Take this money, and our business doesn't owe favors."
Sima Jiu wanted to refuse, but after turning his head and thinking about it, he chose to accept.
"The private money of the shopkeeper Liu, if you don't take it for nothing, you won't take it for nothing."
"However, in exchange for the equivalent of barter, I will only take the equivalent part." Sima Jiu replied sincerely, and as he spoke, he took out two gold leaves from the package.
Between heaven and earth, the most difficult thing to return is human favor, and Sima Jiu is unwilling to leave human favor.
"It is said that if you owe the merchant gold, you will not be stable in this life, and a gold leaf can be exchanged for a clear void lotus, but I still want to owe the shopkeeper Liu a little gold."
"I think I owe the gold to Shopkeeper Liu, and in the future, you and I may be able to meet."
Sima Jiu looked at the charming merchant talker, his eyes were complicated.
He didn't want to see the mercenary businessman, he saw the Liu Meiniang who would blush and his eyes would dodge.
Sima Jiu soon got his wish.
When Shopkeeper Liu heard this, her pretty face suddenly turned slightly red, and after glaring at Sima Jiu, she couldn't wait to move her gaze away.
"It's not ashamed to accept money from people and talk so much."
"Listen to Li Jiancheng, do you want to join the company?"
"Hey, Brother Jiancheng really can't keep his mouth shut." Sima Jiu made an expression of carelessness in making friends.
"The court is chaotic, between power and interests, to be honest, you are really not that material."
"In the future, if you can't get along anymore, you can come to me, there are still many low-level guys' jobs under the merchant's banner, with your qualifications, you can qualify."
Liu Meiniang looked at Sima Jiu, didn't know what she remembered, and covered her mouth and smiled.
Sima Jiu smiled awkwardly: "Hehe! ”
......
It didn't take long for the merchant to boil the Qingxu Lotus and let Ashinari take it.
Liu Meiniang saw that her complexion changed greatly after taking the medicine, so she left Bingzhou City with confidence.
The city of Bingzhou was surrounded by the army of the Han king, and to go to Daxing City, it was necessary to break through the encirclement of the Han army, and the number of entourages should not be too much.
Ashinadhu knew that his sister was saved, so he couldn't stop giggling for a while, and then hid again, but when he came back, his eyes were red.
He knew that it was Sima Jiu who saved Ashinali, and when he came back, he didn't say thank you, but just followed Sima Jiu, like a plaster, not leaving an inch.
The western part of Bingzhou, occupied by the Turkic Alan Department, has become a vacuum area that is not under the jurisdiction of Yang Xuangan.
The Turks set up a large number of arrow towers in the city to prevent the sneak attack of Yang Xuangan's army, and before the Han king surrounded the city, almost every day, Yang Xuangan's army would clash with the Turks.
However, neither the infiltration of small groups of men and horses, nor the shock of large groups of soldiers and horses, failed to drive out the Turks.
On the western city wall, the Turks also stationed heavy troops to prevent the Han army from breaking through from here.
The Turks laid out in such a way that it was impossible to guess their true intentions.
In a vacant lot in the western city, there is a Turkic Alan sweat tent, which is heavily guarded and does not allow ordinary people to approach.
After nightfall, Squeero, the leader of the Alan tribe, was receiving Yang Xuangan's envoy in the big tent.
"Squeero Khan, if you can assist Lord Yang in guarding the city of Hezhou, after the matter is completed, Lord Yang will definitely thank His Majesty the Emperor for his gratitude."
"Now, the Khan of Qimin is old, and it may be difficult to serve for a long time, but it is true that His Majesty the Emperor is not optimistic about Duji." A man dressed in black chatted in front of Squeerro's seat.
The embroidered star map on the black-clothed man's clothes is particularly eye-catching, and it is obvious that he is also a member of the Star Network.
Yang Xuangan led the Star Network Assassin Group, and such a secret conversation naturally had to be the Star Network Assassin.
A sneer crossed Squero's lips.
For decades, the Central Plains Dynasty continued to instigate the Turkic tribes with the aim of dividing the power of the Turks.
"The steppe has its own rules, and our khan is not yet the turn of a person who has not been to the steppe to decide." Squeero's eyes were sharp and he looked down at the Star Net Assassin.
Suddenly, the Star Network Assassin felt uncomfortable, and the meaning of Squeero's words was simple and clear, he was rejecting Yang Xuangan's solicitation.
Turkic secrets, Qimin Khan is in poor health, and His Majesty the Emperor is not optimistic about Duji and other words, which Yang Xuangan personally told him, and it is also the most important weight for him to come to woo Squeero this time.
Now, this important weight doesn't seem to be working as it should, which makes him suddenly have an unacceptable idea.
He was an Assassin, and his instincts told him that he might not be able to get out of this tent today.
The members of the Star Network come from all over the world, and although they are well-organized, they are not monolithic.
He was originally a retainer of the Yuwen family, and after the Yuwen family noticed that the star network was investigating the information that Yu Wenhua and his brothers were smuggling iron weapons, he was sent to Bingzhou, named Auxiliary Yang Xuangan, but in fact he had other plans.
During this trip to merge states, Zhengang had disappeared a few days ago, and the soul destroyer had been seriously injured, and his status was slightly inferior to that of Zhengang soul destroyer, and it was reasonable that he was sent to have a secret conversation with Squeero Khan of the Turkic Alan Department.
However, at this time, Sguero's attitude was not friendly.
Just when he was full of emotions, Squeero spoke: "However, there are two things you said right, the Khan of Qimin should have died a long time ago, that Duji is indeed a fool, he has actually called himself the Khan of Shibi. ”
After speaking, Squeero laughed wildly.
The Star Net Assassin echoed and smiled, but in his heart he secretly cursed the Turks for being crazy.
"If you come a day earlier, perhaps, I may consider your suggestion, after all, in the steppe, except for that person, I am the most qualified person to be a khan."
The Star Net Assassin smiled in response.
"Khan? Just 10,000 horses in your mere 10,000 horses? The Star Net Assassin had no confidence in Squeero from the bottom of his heart, however, he only buried this contempt in his heart and did not say it.
Squeero seemed to see through his thoughts. "In the northern grasslands, there are many people who support me, and in Youzhou alone, there are 20,000 grassland athletes who trace me."
"Squeero Khan's succession to the throne of Khan is expected by all, and in the future, Lord Yang Su will do his best to wish you the throne of Khan." The Star Net Assassin flattered on the side, not squinting his eyes and sweeping the sweat tent.
He had to find a way out for himself.
There are not many guards in the sweat tent, and with his strength, it is not difficult to escape from the sweat tent.
"But today the people of the King of Han tell me that they have something better than what the Khan promised." After Squeero explained the reason for his rejection of Yang Xuangan's wooing, he stood up suddenly.
He was a tower-like Turkic man, and at this time, his eyes were actually a little red.
"Honorable Squeero Khan, the King of Han is about to fall, you can't get better benefits from him, he will only deceive you." The Star Net Assassin advised.
"Deception? Ha ha! ”
"Compared to the cloud-like conditions you offered, King Han is more sincere."
Suddenly, Squeero's mind conjured up a noble Turkic aristocratic woman with sapphire eyes, holding a baby, and beside her, a mischievous boy with blond hair.
Squeero's eyes gradually became gentle, it was the queen of the First Blue Khan, the mistress of the Golden Wolf Shrine, if it weren't for her, Squeero might have died under the whip of the Tiele people.
"Squeerohan, this is impossible, you must not be deceived by the King of Han!" While admonishing, the Star Net Assassin moved a half-step slightly in the direction of the big tent covering, obviously, he was ready to slip away.
"Haha! Actually, it's just a piece of news, just a piece of news from the state not long ago. Squeero laughed, and at some point, a large bow appeared in his hand.
Although the martial arts of this Star Network Assassin are not as good as Zhengang and Soul Slayer, he is quite confident in terms of escaping alone.
When he noticed Squeero stretching his bow and arrows, he heard the news and moved to the side of the tent.
There was only one gate in the Great Tent, and however, he had no intention of escaping from it.
After he understood that Squeero would not cooperate, the gate was not his choice, although there was only one gate in the Turkic sweat tent, but as long as there was a dagger in hand, the sweat tent was everywhere to exit.
The Star Net Assassin swung the dagger in his hand, and in a very short time, he cut a large hole in the sweat tent to escape.
However, just as he was about to jump out of the sweat tent, there was a dull sound of bowstring trembling behind him, followed by a heart-piercing pain, and then he collapsed to the ground weakly.
Squeero's arrow shattered the internal organs of the Star Net Assassin, but the Star Net Assassin did not die immediately.
He only felt a man walk into the sweat tent, and then stood beside Squeero.
"This is the album of the young khans we got, and it looks very similar to the Dulan Khan." The Star Net Assassin heard Squeero laugh maniacally.
It wasn't until he died that he realized that the position of Khan, who was admired by thousands of people, was actually not as good as a portrait.
