The north wind was howling, and the snowflakes were flying, hitting the face as if it were a knife cut.

In a tent on the snow, the coal in the brazier was burning red, and the tent was warm.

The table in the center was full of wine and meat, and Shepchenko and Andrei were sitting on either side, drinking and eating meat.

"It's a bear's paw, isn't it?"

Shepchenko said as he gnawed on a piece of meat, his face flushed.

Andrei smiled, raised his glass, and said to him:

"Here, cheers."

"If our principality can have this liquor, it will definitely be able to sell it at a good price."

Shepchenko took a glass and drank it all, smacking his lips:

"Good thing, this liquor is really a good thing."

"If the principality can have this liquor, I don't need the old lady to do it, as long as I am supplied with enough liquor, I can sell the position of the head of the family."

Andrei smiled and said:

"Do you want to drink this liquor and become the head of the Tulip family?"

Shepchenko put his glass on the table, looking excited.

"My mother was implicated by the Vallia family, deprived of the title of countess, and died in the empress's prison in humiliation, even if I, Shepchenko, ascended to the position of head of the family, will I be able to avenge my mother?"

Shepchenko's voice was high-pitched, as if he was afraid that the people outside the tent would not hear him.

Andrei smiled and looked at the curtain of the tent that was blown by the north wind, and his face was full of smiles.

"Ming people don't say dark words, Your Excellency, if you can come up with enough tricks to contain you, the prince will definitely be willing to bury a nail like you in the Slavic principalities."

Shepchenko's face changed, his shoulders collapsed, and his whole person was a little decadent.

"What we are pursuing is interests, why can't the prince see it, I, Shepchenko, now, can only take refuge in the prince all the way, as long as the prince nods, I am the spy of the Han Kingdom."

Andrey looked at Shepchenko and slurped.

"Okay, it's all now, what else can't we two say."

"It's useless for you to fool me, I can get useful news from you this time, and I will naturally return it to the prince, if the prince feels that it is okay, he will naturally let you live, if the prince feels that it is not cost-effective, then you can only die."

Shepchenko put down the wine glass he had just raised, his face was ugly, if this was the case, if he wanted to live, he really couldn't do it without taking out something.

After hesitating for a long time, Shepchenko looked at Zuo Jin, and said in a tangled voice:

"It's really hard to talk about this, in our principality, if you want to be disliked by the empress, or even ruined, there is only that kind of hobby."

Andre was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked:

"Which hobby?"

Shepchenko's face turned red:

"That's it."

Stretched out his hand to compare you and me, and then made an unspeakable secret gesture.

Andrey immediately understood, looked at Shepchenko, looked up and down a few times, and then stepped back, his tone was surprised:

"The same hobby as the Empress's dead husband?"

Shepchenko's neck was red, and he nodded heavily.

Andrei jumped up and laughed:

"If that's the case, you can rest assured."

André put down the bottle and walked out.

Shepchenko looked at Andrei's back, a cold light flashed in his eyes, lowered his head again, and drank the liquor in the cup in one gulp.

……

When André met Su Lu, Su Lu was standing on the surface of a large frozen lake, watching a group of guards dig through the ice hole to catch fish.

The half-arm-long fish was fished out of the ice hole with a shovel and thrown on the ice.

Andrei smiled:

"Master, you can drink fish soup today, put it on the ula grass, and make up for it."

Su Lu glanced at Andrei:

"It's better to put a bear's paw and make up for it even more."

Andrei's face turned pale when he heard this, and he knew that Su Lu had something to say, so he hurriedly spoke:

"Master, the matter has been done, Shepchenko has a handle, if it is made public, his life will be over, not to mention ascending to the position of the head of the Tulip family, whether the empress will cut him or not, it's hard to say."

"Tell me?"

Su Lu watched a big fish with an arm length being fished up, and said with a smile.

Andrei looked at the left near, a little hesitant.

Su Lu looked at the cheering guards, shook his head, followed Andre back to the nest, and asked him: "

What kind of trick can make the empress kill him? ”

Andre said it again, Su Lu felt a little spicy, and after thinking about it, Su Lu made a decision in his heart.

"Okay, then that's it, let him go back, he dares to use the available people, also put it back, let him go back and work hard, we will give advice, and even send elite soldiers to help him fight, it's okay."

"You're in charge of docking with him."

Sulu commanded Andrei.

Andrei's face was a little ugly when he heard this, this is to support him back, but he is different from Shepchenko, Shepchenko can still be controlled when he goes back, if he goes back......

"Andrey, what do you think of me fighting?"

Andre was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't understand why Su Lu asked like this.

Shepchenko was led out of the tent by several janissaries, and when he came to the two of them, he respectfully saluted Sulu.

Sulu asked Shepchenko:

"Shepchenko, tell me, how about my war?"

"It's amazing"

Shepchenko said without hesitation.

"I didn't know it was the prince before, I thought it was a general of the Han Kingdom, if I knew that it was the prince in person, I wouldn't dare to start a war with the prince if I was killed."

"The prince is the god of war, all countries are respectful, before I came, the empress of the principality had an explanation, let us not provoke him."

Although Andrei disdained Shepchenko's sycophants in his heart, he still echoed and said:

"The prince is amazing."

Sulu instructed Shepchenko:

"After you go back, our Han Congress will do its best to help you, ascend to the position of the head of the Tulip family, the position of the Slavic Minister of Commerce, and become an important Slavic minister."

Shepchenko knelt on the ground when he heard this:

"I will not disappoint the prince."

Three days later

Shepchenko set off with Andrey. 'Led a dozen Slavic sergeants on the road to the north.

Su Lu saw them off.

Gao Dabao suddenly spoke:

"I don't think this Andre is a good person, we don't have any handle on him, if he goes and completely betrays us, the gains outweigh the losses."

Su Lu looked at Andrei's back and said with a smile:

"You're wrong, people are different."

"Look at the big bear over there, he's tall and big, what does he rely on?"

Gao Dabao was a little confused, yes, what does this fat bear rely on.

A janissary opened his mouth to relieve Gao Dabao:

"It's to grab, to grab people with his claws."

Su Lu nodded:

"Yes, claws, Andrei and Shepchenko, they will be the claws of my Han Kingdom in the future, Shepchenko can't betray, he will naturally look at Andrei, so that Andrei won't even have the idea of betrayal."
