When a knife with three-colored lines appeared in Kou Ji's hand, Agu's eyes widened.

When Kou Ji casually slashed an old knife in the workshop with the knife in his hand, Agu pinched his jaw and almost fell to the ground.

The blades that could only be seen in the hands of Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu and the nobles of the Liao Kingdom were actually forged by Kou Ji.

Agu Jian believed that Kou Ji could forge a sword, and he also believed that Kou Ji could forge a good knife, but he never expected Kou Ji to forge a treasure knife.

"Goo~"

Agu pinched at the knife and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Kou Ji casually handed the knife to Agu and laughed in a low voice: "Don't be surprised, it's just an ordinary sword, and there are only three lines on the knife." Unfortunately, there is still a shortage of materials, but if there are enough materials, I can forge a knife with seven patterns.

That's a sword. ”

In fact, some of Kou Ji's words are not only untrue.

This kind of sword casting process, the nine-pattern one can be regarded as a real treasure sword.

Kou Ji can barely forge a nine-pattern knife, but the knife he forged with nine patterns is too brittle and too scummy.

Nothing but good looks.

He was just a man of false origin, not a true master of sword forgery, and his abilities were limited.

Whether Kou Ji told the truth or not, Agu pinch didn't know.

He only knew that the knife that Kou Ji had forged with three lines was already so powerful, and the knife with seven lines was definitely even more powerful.

Hardly anything interesting, Agu Pinch chased after Kou Ji and asked, "What do you want, I'll help you find it." ”

Kou Ji hesitated: "You are too easy to find......"

Agu shook his head and said seriously: "As long as Da Liao has it, I can help you find it." ”

Kou Ji casually revealed the names of some things.

Afraid that Agu would not be able to remember, he took another piece of charcoal, wrote it on a gray piece of paper, and handed it to him.

Agu pinched the paper and went to look for something overnight.

Koji threw down the forging tools and went back to sleep.

In the days that followed, Agu frantically searched for what Koji wanted, while Koji made knives in the blacksmith's workshop with peace of mind.

With the appearance of a three-patterned knife with a handle, the news that Kou Ji was able to create a divine weapon swept through the entire camp.

There are many people who come here.

A few Liao nobles also rushed over to find Kou Ji to build a blade.

The news naturally and inevitably reached the ears of the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu didn't have much feeling about this.

The better the sword, the more waste materials it will be, and the forging process will be difficult, so it will not be able to be promoted at all.

As long as it cannot be generalized, it cannot equip the whole army.

can't equip the whole army, no matter how good the craftsmanship is, for the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu, it is also dispensable.

In terms of the benefits of military armor, there is no country in the world that can compare with the Song Kingdom.

But so what?

The Song people are holding the best equipment in the world, and they are not being beaten every day.

And the production method of the equipment owned by the Song people, the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu has it.

Why didn't he promote Burenjia in the territory of Liao?

It's not because the cost of Burenjia is too high, and Liao can't afford to equip it.

The sword created by Kou Ji was, in the eyes of Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu, the same as the step armor of the Song Kingdom.

Although it is good, it cannot equip the whole army and is useless to the Liao State.

In comparison, Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu preferred the phosphorus fire bombs made by Kou Ji.

The kind of phosphorus fire bomb that burns whatever you see as long as it is lit is what the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu needs more.

Therefore, when Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu heard that Kou Ji could build a high-grade sword, he didn't react much.

He just sent someone behind his back to help Agu pinch and gather all the materials that Koji needed.

After getting all the materials, Koji went into the blacksmith's workshop and never came out again.

Within a few days, a seven-pattern sword was born.

After Agu pinched and got the treasure knife, if he got the treasure, after trying the sharpness of the treasure knife, he didn't let go of it.

He hugged him for two days before he asked Kou Ji reluctantly, "Do I want to give this treasure knife to Your Majesty?" ”

Kou Ji was stunned when he heard this, and shook his head, "There's no need, the sword is a hero." His Majesty the Emperor of Liao doesn't have to kill the enemy, and it is useless for him to ask for this treasure sword. Keep it for yourself. ”

Agu pinch hesitated: "But I ......"

Kou Ji saw Agu's concerns, and laughed in a low voice: "Don't worry, I will go back and make a handle with nine patterns and give it to His Majesty the Emperor of Liao." ”

Agu pinched his face stunned, "Is there anything better?" ”

Kou Ji stared at him with a smile and said, "You're too greedy......"

Agu was stunned for a moment, scratched his head and smiled, "Seven lines to accompany me, just right." ”

Kou Ji nodded with satisfaction and said, "You go back first." I still have some things to do, and I'm going to have a drink with you when I'm done. ”

Agu nodded heavily and left with his sword.

Kou Ji waited until evening, when there was no one in the blacksmith's shop, quietly took out another set of tools, and began to build things.

When he was done, he quietly returned to the tent with his things.

Then I went to Agu to pinch and drink.

Following.

Following the rumors that Kou Ji was able to create swords and swords, news spread that Kou Ji could create top-notch jewelry.

The first to come to the door to test the water was Yelu Saige, the thirteenth princess of Liao.

Although she was imprisoned by Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu, as long as she didn't leave the camp, Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu didn't bother to restrain her.

Kou Ji casually helped Yelu Saigo build a golden hairpin.

Jerex immediately took the sisters who went to her to show off.

Then more and more princesses joined the ranks of asking Ko Ji to create jewelry.

Time flies.

More than half a month has passed.

Kou Ji is like a craftsman in the camp of the Liao Kingdom.

There is something about the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu going to exchange the New Year's coins for Kou Ji, and the reply given by the Great Song Dynasty has also arrived.

Don't say yes!

In addition, the Great Song Dynasty court also specially sent a letter of state, asking the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu to fulfill the marriage contract between the two countries.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu immediately recruited envoys from the Song State to continue to discuss peace talks and the reasons for the marriage between the two countries.

After more than half a month of running-in, the two countries have made a breakthrough in the peace talks.

The Liao State reduced the annual tribute of 50,000 silk as a condition for the boycott of the army.

But at the same time, there are also requirements.

The Song State was required to open three more trade places on the border between the two countries.

In the eyes of the Song people, this is a move to send money to Song Guo, and Song Guo has no reason to refuse.

Eventually, after negotiations, the treaty between the two countries was re-established.

Subsequently, the two countries agreed on a time to withdraw heavy troops from the border.

The peace talks between the two countries on the war have officially come to an end.

But Ko Ji and his entourage were not in a hurry to return to China.

Because of the marriage between the two countries, further consultations are needed.

Just when the two countries were arguing over the matter of getting married, Kou Ji presented a nine-pattern treasure knife to the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu, and presented a filigree phoenix crown to the Liao Empress Xiao Bodhisattva Brother as a thank you gift.

After he arrived in Liao, Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu was rewarded.

The sword that Kou Ji dedicated to Emperor Yelu Longxu of Liao is gorgeous, and the phoenix crown dedicated to Brother Xiao Bodhisattva of Liao is even more gorgeous.

is so gorgeous that even Brother Xiao Bodhisattva, who is dedicated to Buddha, is full of praise when he holds the phoenix crown.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu saw that Brother Xiao Bodhisattva of Liao was very satisfied with Kou Ji's gift, and with a wave of his hand, he gave Kou Ji a thousand good horses.

A thousand good horses that have not been castrated.

When Kou Ji gave the gift, he didn't really think that there would be any reward.

But Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu can reward a thousand good horses that have not been castrated, how can he not want it.

The Great Song Dynasty lacks horses, and there is a shortage of horses.

The reason is that the Great Song Dynasty is not good at raising horses, so every year the Great Song Dynasty spends a lot of money to buy a large number of good horses from the surrounding areas.

The black-hearted Liao and Western Xia people would always cut off the horses when they sold them to the Great Song Dynasty.

This made the Great Song Dynasty rely on imports in terms of horses.

After all, castrated horses, unable to reproduce offspring, died in battle, or died of old age.

The Great Song Dynasty could only spend money to buy horses from the Liao State and Western Xia.

Therefore, the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu can reward Kou Ji with a thousand uncastrated horses in one go, which can be regarded as a generous gift.

The warm-hearted Agu pinched himself, led the soldiers of the leather room army who had received Kou Ji's favor, and helped Kou Ji pick a thousand good horses.

After Kou Ji got the horse, he stuffed it to Xiang Minzhong and asked Xiang Minzhong to transport it back to the Great Song Dynasty as soon as possible.

His purpose was never to be a horse, a thousand good horses, for him, it was just a windfall.

On the second day after Kou Ji sacrificed the phoenix crown.

Someone approached Koji.

A female official in the royal family of the Liao Kingdom, an elderly middle-aged woman.

When she saw Kou Ji, she bowed slightly, and said stiffly: "Niangniang wants to see you!" ”

Koji made a gesture of please.

Follow the female officer and walk together to a large tent.

It was the lady of Liao who wanted to see him, and Kou Ji knew it very well in his heart.

He has done so many things, waiting for this mother's summons.

Under the guidance of the female official, Kou Ji entered the big tent and saw the ugly Shunsheng Yuan Concubine Xiao Yunjin.

This is an ugly woman, but unwilling and ordinary.

is also a woman who has to compete with the queen of Liao for everything.

She wants to be the queen, she wants to replace Brother Xiao Bodhisattva, which is a well-known thing in Liao.

Of course, her ambitions go far beyond that.

According to historical records, after the death of the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu, the young Yelu Zongzhen succeeded to the throne, and this woman showed a strong desire for power.

She not only had the idea of abolishing Yelu Zongzhen and re-establishing Yelu Zongyuan (later Yelu Chongyuan), but also wanted to emulate Empress Dowager Xiao and Liu E to take charge of the power of Liao.

This is a very ambitious woman, and she is also a woman who dares to think and do.

So Kou Ji chose to find her.

Shunsheng Yuan Concubine Xiao Yunjin saw Kou Ji, and there were no extra polite words, she instructed Kou Ji in a cold tone, "This palace wants an identical phoenix crown?" ”

Kou Ji looked at him in amazement, pretending to be at a loss.

Shunsheng Yuan Concubine Xiao Yunjin gritted her teeth and repeated: "This palace wants a phoenix crown that is exactly the same as Brother Xiao Bodhisattva." ”

Shunsheng Yuan Concubine Xiao Yunjin stared at Kou Ji and threatened: "If you make an identical phoenix crown, this palace will not embarrass you." If you can make a better phoenix crown, this palace will also reward you.

Your Majesty can give you a thousand good horses, and this palace can give you two thousand. ”

Kou Ji heard the feeling of charity from the words of Concubine Xiao Yunjin.

I also heard her unscrupulous madness in order to compete with Brother Xiao Bodhisattva.

When Kou Ji heard this, he showed a hint of hesitation, and he said in a low voice: "A better phoenix crown, the foreign minister can make it." It's just ......"

Concubine Shunsheng Xiao Yunjin glared and asked, "It's just what?" ”

Kou Ji said in a deep voice: "If you want to make a better phoenix crown, you must use silver. When making silver, it is necessary to use materials such as lead. This substance is harmful to the human body. ”

The speaker has a heart, and the listener has a heart.

Shunsheng Yuan Concubine Xiao Yunjin squinted her eyes when she heard that lead was harmful, and asked in a low voice, "How can it be harmful?" This palace saw that many women in my Daliao used silver hairpins, and I didn't see them being harmed by silver hairpins. ”

Kou Ji said seriously: "I died in the first emperor, Niangniang has heard of it, right?" ”

Shunsheng Yuan Concubine Xiao Yunjin nodded and said, "This is a well-known thing. ”

Kou Ji said: "The death of the first emperor of my dynasty was due to lead and mercury poisoning caused by eating too many elixirs. ”

Shunsheng Yuan Concubine Xiao Yunjin heard this and thought thoughtfully.

She groaned for a while, and said lightly to Kou Ji: "Then you can make an identical phoenix crown for this palace." After it is done, the palace will not hesitate to reward. ”

Kou Ji bowed his hand and said, "Thank you, Niangniang." ”

"Let's go down."

Kou Ji arched his hand and withdrew from the big tent.

After Kou Ji left.

Concubine Shunsheng Xiao Yunjin squinted her eyes and asked the female official beside her, "Brother Xiao Bodhisattva, that slut, likes to use silver kettles, right?" ”

The female officer nodded heavily.

A hideous look flashed on the face of Shunsheng Yuan Concubine Xiao Yunjin, and she laughed in a low voice: "The last time I poisoned her, I didn't poison her." This time she must be poisoned. ”

(Not apocryphal, historical data record that Shunsheng Yuan Concubine Xiao Yunjin once poisoned Brother Xiao Bodhisattva many times in order to compete for the throne.) ）

Outside the big tent, Kou Ji strolled on the grass with new green shoots, leisurely.

In order to kill him, Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu did not hesitate to conspire and conspire, so don't blame him for being ruthless.

Letting the concubines of Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu kill his queen was only the first step in Kou Ji's plan.

He also had a more ruthless back for Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu.

When he was in the Great Song Dynasty, he was bullied, so he had to endure it and find an opportunity to take revenge.

But in Liao, he doesn't need to worry about anything.

A person who has craftsmanship and is unscrupulous is the most terrifying.

Kou Ji returned to the tent, and after taking his things, he continued to go to the blacksmith's workshop to help Shunsheng Yuan Concubine Xiao Yunjin make a phoenix crown.

The time to make the phoenix crown of Shunsheng Yuan Concubine Xiao Yunjin is far longer than the time to make the phoenix crown for Xiao Bodhisattva Brother of Liaohou.

Because Kou Ji is waiting.

When the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu personally announced the candidates for the Liao State and the princess.

Fast forward to mid-March.

After several rounds of talks, the candidates for Liao Guo and the princess have been selected.

As Kou Ji expected, it was the woman who had slipped into his tent in the middle of the night.

Kou Ji also knew that her name was Yelu Fifteenth Brother when Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu personally announced her name.

She may not have been called this name before, but from the moment she became the daughter of the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu, she changed to this name.
