Guo Song was really a little speechless, he hunted the White Wolf King just to save people, but in the end it became an opportunity for the outbreak of the civil war.

Mu Manhe had already said goodbye and left, Guo Song was panicked in his heart, he walked out of the big tent, looking at the more than a dozen goshawks soaring in the sky, the fierce son seemed to be like a fish in water, and kept making a crisp chirping sound.

"Your eagle seems to have found its homeland!"

Li Jinyang appeared beside Guo Song, looking at the eagles in the sky and smiled: "I can see that it is very excited, if it wants to stay, are you willing to do it?" ”

Guo Song smiled faintly: "My eagle, like me, is free, I have never kept it, as long as it is willing, it can stay." ”

"Guo Gongzi, let's take a walk!"

Guo Song knew that he had something to say to himself, so he nodded and walked towards the river not far away with his hands behind his back.

"I'm sorry, I didn't plan to take out the white wolf skin, it was Wei Ping who leaked his mouth when he bragged to the other party, and I didn't expect them to take it so seriously that it would involve war."

Guo Song shook his head, "You don't have to apologize, I had a premonition that there would be today when I was in the West Surrender City, this is the will of God!" ”

"So, you promised them? Take part in their wars. ”

Guo Song still shook his head, "Their war is not too much for me, but not much for me, I am going to Abs to save my brother, just with the help of their strength." ”

The two walked to the river, looking at the white and bright river in front of them, Li Jinyang said slowly: "You should have guessed my identity!" ”

Guo Song said with a smile: "Uncle An said that you are the owner, then of course you are a royal family, this doesn't need to be guessed, but I can't figure out what you are doing in the grassland?" At first, I thought you were an envoy, but then I thought about it, an envoy is a very formal thing, where would it be like you, it's just a trip. ”

Li Jinyang smiled bitterly and said: "Actually, you are half right, I am indeed an envoy, on the order of the Son of Heaven, to investigate the situation in the frontier and the grassland, the re-emergence of Xue Yantuo makes the Son of Heaven deeply worried, once Xue Yantuo dominates the grassland, the northern Tang Dynasty will not be peaceful." ”

"In that case, why didn't the emperor increase his troops in Lingzhou and directly wipe out Xue Yantuo under Lingzhou City?"

"Do you think that the Son of Heaven can do whatever he wants, and send troops if he wants?" Li Jinyang snorted coldly.

"Isn't it?"

Li Jinyang shook his head, "Even if the Son of Heaven wants to send troops, he will be constrained by all aspects, the opposition of civil and military officials, the lack of soldiers, financial difficulties, the shortage of military funds, the lack of food and grass, the people are war-weary, etc., the Son of Heaven wants to strengthen the military defense of the northern frontier, a group of prime ministers will come and cry, the financial resources of the imperial court are about to collapse, and they really can't afford it, or complain that the military power of the frontier is too large, and there will be a second An Lushan, otherwise, why would the Son of Heaven let me, the royal family, personally investigate the situation in the frontier and the grassland?" ”

Although Li Jinyang didn't say it explicitly, Guo Song understood his extraneous voice.

"What do you mean is actually that the imperial court is actually worried that the Shuofang army is too heavy, and Duan Xiushi will become the second An Lushan, so he refuses to increase troops in Lingzhou?"

Li Jinyang sighed, "As I said, there are many reasons, and this is one of the reasons, but An Lushan is not enough, but the land of Lingwu is indeed easy to produce separatist forces." ”

"Brother Jinyang is looking for me, won't he just talk to me about this?"

Li Jinyang pondered for a long time and said: "Actually, I came to persuade you to agree to the request of the Sijie Division, and the Governor of Sijie found me, hoping that you could participate in their war, and I told him that I could only try my best to persuade you." ”

Guo Song smiled and said: "Actually, I have promised them, and the condition I gave them is that after the war, all the Han people will be released back to the Tang Dynasty, of course, if they are unwilling to go, it is not reluctant, and the other party also agreed." ”

Li Jinyang said: "Actually, I also want to know about this war between the Sijie Department and the Absi Ministry, and I hope to get the most detailed first-hand information." ”

"Brother Jinyang thinks too highly of me."

Guo Song smiled faintly: "Actually, it's the same if you let Wei Ping and Zhang Quanyong participate, why expect me, an unreliable outsider?" ”

Guo Song politely rejected his request.

A trace of gloom flashed in Li Jinyang's eyes, and he said it for a long time, but Guo Song actually didn't agree.

But thinking that he wanted to give his father an explanation for his trip to the grassland, he could only hold back the dissatisfaction in his heart and continue to lower his figure.

"Wei Ping and Zhang Quanyong They are actually guards of the imperial city, they have public offices, they can't participate in the war between different races, it will cause unnecessary trouble, this matter can only be entrusted to the virtuous brother, it should be regarded as me begging the virtuous brother for help, this war is very important for both the Tang Dynasty and the grassland situation."

Guo Song was silent for a moment, and said to Li Jinyang: "After this war is over, I will probably not return to the Si Ji Ministry, and return to Datang directly from the Absi Ministry, so be it!" You ask Uncle An to give me the address of the capital, and I will write a letter to him when I get back. ”

"Brother Xian will also go to the capital?"

Guo Song nodded, Li Jinyang smiled slightly: "I opened a martial arts hall in the capital, called Jinyang Martial Arts Hall, the children who learn martial arts are basically relatives of the emperor, I want to ask the virtuous brother to be the head of the head of the sect, five hundred yuan a month, is the virtuous brother willing to give me this face?" ”

Guo Song smiled and said: "My martial arts are only a third-rate level in Kongtong Mountain, Zixiao Heavenly Palace has many talents, and there are many strong people, they are supported by the royal family, and they should serve the royal family, and His Royal Highness has summoned a piece of paper, I believe that there will be real strong warriors to serve His Royal Highness." ”

Li Jinyang touched a soft nail, but he was unwilling, and further added: "That's the virtuous brother is too modest, in fact, there are indeed many people with strong martial arts in Chang'an, but I value the courage and courage of the virtuous brother more, if the virtuous brother is willing, I can recommend the virtuous brother to enter the Tianying Pavilion, where the best warriors in the Tang Dynasty are gathered, the treatment is extremely generous, and there is a chance to be appreciated by the Son of Heaven, I recommended five people, they have all become the chief warriors of the Tianying Pavilion, I hope the virtuous brother can become the sixth person." ”

In fact, whether it was the head of the martial arts hall or the chief warrior of Tianying Pavilion, it was a means for Li Jinyang to win over people, he took a fancy to Guo Song and wanted to draw him to his side.

Guo Song looked at the fierce son hovering in the sky, and said leisurely: Shuo Fangjun wants to train the fierce son into the best scout eagle, and he does not hesitate to tempt him with beauty, but the fierce son still goes north without hesitation, it advocates freedom and does not want to be controlled by others, what kind of person raises what kind of eagle, Your Highness, I'm sorry! ”

With that, he turned and walked towards his tent.

Li Jinyang stood by the river and watched Guo Song's back walk away, and he really felt an indescribable loss in his heart.

........

In the evening of the same day, Sijie Dudu Salle held a grand banquet to entertain distinguished guests from the Tang Dynasty.

Dozens of huge bonfires were lit on the grasslands, and thousands of herdsmen gathered around the fires to sing and dance.

The main banquet is a huge tent covering an area of about two acres, the torches will illuminate the big tent brightly, bright as day, there is a circle of tables around, the table is full of meat and wine, all kinds of melons and fruits are piled up like a hill, in the middle of the big tent, a group of young girls sing and dance, the atmosphere is very warm.

Nearly 100 hosts and guests sat behind the table, including more than 30 guards from Li Jinyang, each of whom had a large silver cup in front of him, which was a silver cup from Damascus, and each glass of wine was at least a pound, and the guards were speechless.

Sitting on the throne is Sijie Dudu Sale, his full name is Sijie Sale, and the official is the Dudu of Lushan, which is the title given by the Tang Dynasty to each Tiele tribal chieftain, and over time, the Dudu has become the official title of the chiefs of the grasslands of various tribes.

Salle was about forty years old, with a broad face, a voice like a brass bell, and a bold and hospitable voice, he picked up his wine glass and said loudly: "Today we are entertaining the distinguished guests of the Tang Dynasty who have come from afar, and Changshengtian has also brought us extraordinary warriors, and I will first salute this glass of wine to our old friend Li An, and thank him for bringing us wealth and joy." ”

Salle obviously didn't know Li Jinyang's true identity, and thought that he was a Tang literati who came to the grassland to find poetry inspiration.

Li An is not sitting in the main and guest seats, he is sitting in the main and secondary positions, and what he brings to the Sijie Department is wealth and joy, not the victory and courage that the grassland people value most, so the main and guest positions are not his turn.

Li An got up to thank him, his amount of wine was average, it was impossible to drink a pound of mare's milk wine in one gulp, he could only drink a few sips symbolically, and the other Tang Dynasty guests couldn't drink it all, at most Wei Ping, but he only drank half a cup, and the grassland warriors drank it all in one go, and at the same time poured the dry wine glass to the top of their heads, indicating that there was no wine left, and all the men laughed proudly together.

At this time, Guo Song, who was sitting in the host and guest seat, silently picked up the silver cup, drank a pound of milk wine, and his face did not change.

He cupped his glass to his head, and the inside of the tent fell silent, and all eyes were on him.

Salle laughed, personally poured a full glass of wine for Guo Song beside him, and said boldly: "I want to salute this cup of wine to the extraordinary warriors sent by Changshengtian, please drink this glass of wine!" ”

There was an uproar in the big tent, and it turned out that the governor was referring to this Han man, not the Sijie warrior.

A burly young man stood up and said coldly: "Governor and slow, I want to drink this glass of wine too!" ”

"Aleku, this is my toast for the guests, what do you want to do?" Salle glared at him.

The man named Aleku came out and said, "Wine guests can drink, but there is only one extraordinary warrior sent by the Immortal Heaven, and it will never be a Han Chinese!" ”

Guo Song slowly narrowed his eyes, is this Governor of Sal deliberately provoking contradictions to test himself?

However, the young man in front of him is also too arrogant and arrogant, what is the so-called 'will never be a Han Chinese', Guo Song was provoked a little annoyed in his heart.

Not only Guo Song, but the other guards present were all angered by his extremely arrogant and rude words, Wei Ping stood up and said loudly: "In Xia, Wei Ping is also a martial artist of the Tang Dynasty, and he is willing to learn the skills of this grassland warrior." ”

Aleku's target was Guo Song, not anyone else, but if this Han man wanted to challenge him, he would have to try.

At this time, Guo Song smiled faintly: "Brother Wei, don't be impatient, the goal of this grassland warrior is me, it is better to let the younger brother play with him first, if the younger brother loses, it is not too late for Brother Wei to make another move." ”

Guo Song saw that Aleku was very powerful, I am afraid that Wei Ping is not his opponent, and he has planted face in the grassland, and I am afraid that he will not be able to raise his head when he returns to the Tang Dynasty.

Wei Ping is actually a little bottomless in his heart, this grassland man has a thicker waist than himself, thicker shoulders than himself, and a taller figure than himself, he is really not necessarily his opponent, since Guo Song said so, he took the opportunity to step down.

"With Guo Gongzi coming out, naturally we don't need to have much to do." He folded his fists and sat down.

Seeing that Guo Song was going to accept Aleku's challenge, Salle said loudly: "I will pay a hundred taels of gold as a lottery head, and I am only allowed to solve the problem, and I am not allowed to play with my life." ”

Alekul's eyes lit up, and there were a hundred taels of gold, and he immediately took off his coat and jumped to the center of the tent bare-chested.

Li Jinyang remained silent, but the interest in his eyes became stronger and stronger, this young man was relatively cold on the surface, but he had clear grievances in his bones, and he could not be provoked, he looked at what kind of martial arts Guo Song was.

At this time, Guo Song walked out and said with a slight smile: "In Xia Lingzhou Guo Song, what is this warrior called?" ”

"I'm Aleku, if you make the question, I'll break it!"

Guo Song nodded, "From now on, if you can touch my body, even if I lose." ”
