"Weicheng is light and dusty in the rain, and the guest house is green and willow-colored. Persuade you to have a glass of wine, and there is no reason to go out of Yangguan in the west. ”

Fang Bin lifted the curtain, looked at the buds on the willow branches on the side of the road, smelled the faint fragrance of pear blossoms in the air, and softly chanted the famous Tang Dynasty poet Wang Wei's "Sending Yuan Er Envoy Anxi".

"I really can't imagine that there is such a beautiful scenery outside Yangguan, what a pity!"

Fang Bin shook his head, a little regretful, and at the same time he whispered in his heart: "It's a pity that such a fat place actually belongs to the barbarians!" It's a pity! What a pity! ”

Thinking of this, Fang Bin looked up to the east, the spire of the mosque looming, Fang Bin frowned, and lowered the curtain.

In the Ming Dynasty, it has now become a convention, non-special circumstances officials are not allowed to take a sedan chair, can only take a carriage, or ride a horse, even if thousands of miles away, Fang Bin did not dare to violate, because around the carriage, vigilantly staring at the surrounding guards, is the emperor's pro-army - Jinyi Guard.

It is a supreme honor to use brocade guards as guards, but there are also some inconveniences.

But now Fang Bin is very grateful to the emperor for his gift, because he set off from Hami in December last year, and if it wasn't for the escort of the Jinyi guard, he probably wouldn't have had a chance to reach Yining.

Along the way, Fang Bin encountered heavy snowstorms, avalanches, sandstorms, and even horse thieves, all of which relied on the sacrifice of the Jinyi Guards to make him reach Yining smoothly, and the Jinyi Guards who died all the way were more than 100 people, accounting for one-tenth of the total number of guards.

Fang Bin didn't know that Ku Luda was waiting for him at the gate of the palace, but even if he knew, he wouldn't care too much, because from tomorrow onwards, he wouldn't need to be with him.

This time they came to Yining, it can be said that they got nothing, Ku Ganga and Sha Mi Chagan did not admit that they had seen the land protection slaves, and for the question of the remnants of Wara, they admitted that they did have the remnants of Warat to contact them, but they all refused.

But the two promised that they would help find the land protection slave, and as long as they found it, they would definitely hand it over to Fang Bin.

Helpless, Fang Bin can only go to the palace once every few days to ask about the progress, and the rest of the time he wanders around Yining City, and even goes to the Buddhist temples outside the city, but the Buddhist temples here are a little dilapidated, and there are only two or three big cats and kittens in the temple.

It was almost April, and Fang Bin had to leave.

Originally, he was worried that the emperor would think that he was incompetent, but yesterday afternoon's will made him let go of his burden, so he almost stayed awake all night, writing down what he knew, what he saw, and what he thought, and did not fall asleep until dawn, which is why he was late.

Ku Mi Da's idea is not wrong, if there is no last night's will, Fang Bin will come earlier, and make a final discussion with Sha Mi Chagan and Ku Da, after the discussion, Sha Mi Chagan will set up a banquet to entertain Fang Bin, and after the banquet, Fang Bin will set off.

But Fang Bin doesn't care anymore.

......

"Isn't this the Prime Minister? Such a coincidence? Are you going out? ”

Seeing Ku Kuda at the gate of the palace, and it seemed that he had been waiting for a long time, Fang Bin couldn't help but be overjoyed, lifted the curtain, got out of the car, and walked towards Ku Kuda, beckoning as he walked.

Seeing Fang Bin coming, Ku Dada's face was immediately full of smiles, and he was about to step forward, but when he heard Fang Bin's teasing, he couldn't help but stiffen his face, but he had to force a smile and said: "Lord Fang said that he was laughing, the old man has been waiting for the adults here for a long time!" ”

"Oh, the Prime Minister has just arrived, what a coincidence!"

Kuda has been in power for many years, supported two generations of khanates, and has long played a pivotal role in the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, but at this moment he was robbed by Fang Bin, and he was angry in his heart, but his face was silent, just nodded slightly: "Yes, what a coincidence!" ”

Because he knew that Fang Bin suddenly became frivolous, something big must happen, and there must be no conflict at this moment, he stepped forward, saluted Fang Bin, and then made a gesture of please: "Lord Fang, please come with me, King Khan has been waiting for a long time!" ”

"Well said! Say! ”

Looking at the two of them walking together, the ministers of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate behind them looked at each other, they didn't understand why the prime minister was so compromised, and they didn't understand why the envoy had become so aggressive?

......

"King Khan, Master Fang has arrived!"

"Okay, okay, let Lord Fang wait a while, the widow will go over immediately!"

Sha Michagan waved his hand, asked people to help tidy up his appearance, and then rushed to the main hall to meet Fang Bin.

After the greetings, Fang Bin first expressed his intention: "His Royal Highness the King Khan, Your Excellency, this official is here to resign!" ”

"Oh?"

Sha Mi Cha Gan glanced at Ku Da lightly, Ku Da bowed slightly, Sha Mi Cha sighed slightly, and looked at Fang Bin: "Lord Fang, return so quickly?" Is it because Xiao Wang is not well entertained? Or is there some neglect on the part of the people below? ”

"No, no."

Fang Bin waved his hand and said with a smile: "King Khan is too modest, His Majesty came yesterday with a will, and there is another appointment for this official, so this official has to come to say goodbye!" ”

"Oh?" Sha Michagan's eyes widened in surprise: "His Majesty the Great Emperor has a will?" Isn't Lord Fang going to be promoted? ”

"It's alright!"

Fang Bin smiled and said with a satisfied look: "After Fang leaves your country, he will rush to Jinshan to assist the old general Song of Xiping in handling the affairs of Jinshan Capital. ”

"Tsuji Kanayama? What is Kanayama Toji? ”

Looking at the somewhat stunned Shami Chagan and Ku Gangda, Fang Bin said with a smile: "Now the life and death of the land slave is uncertain, there is no owner in Mobei, the grassland is endless, the people are suffering from swords, Your Majesty is the lord of the world, and the blessings are in the four seas, and the people of the grassland are of course no exception, so Your Majesty issued an order to set up the Hulunbuir Division, the Helin Division and the Jinshan Division in Mobei, and the official was ordered to go to the Jinshan Division to do some work within his ability!" ”

What the? Tatsuji Kanayama? Hulunbuir Dusi? And Lindos?

Sha Michagan's face suddenly turned pale, he turned his head to look at Kuda, and found that this unhappy and angry minister of state actually had trembling hands.

"Oh, that's right!"

I don't know how long it took to be silent before Sha Michagan recovered from the shock, and he forced a smile and said: "His Majesty the Great Emperor is indeed far-sighted and benevolent, I hope that the people in the northern part of the desert can understand Your Majesty's painstaking efforts." ”

"Yes, it's a pity that the slave is gone, otherwise His Majesty wouldn't have made such a decision, alas!"

Fang Bin sighed heavily.

Sha Mi Chagan and Ku Da looked at each other, but the corners of their mouths were a little bitter.

......

"Prime Minister, what should I do?"

Looking at the convoy of Ming envoys who were gradually moving away, Sha Michagan said with a gloomy face.

Kuda raised his hand and pressed his eyebrows, was silent for a while, and said: "King Khan, there is no other way, let's agree to the request of the land protection slave and let him return to the grassland!" ”

"In this case, maybe things will turn around!"

"That's right," Sha Micha frowned, paced a few steps slightly, and turned back, "Will the Dibao Nu hold a grudge and take revenge on us in the future!" ”

"King Khan,"

Kuda said eagerly: "How can you take care of these now?" ”

"For today's plan, we must ensure that the Ming army cannot be allowed to gain a foothold in Mobei, otherwise my Chagatai Khanate will never have peace!"

"But, can it really be done when the land protector goes back?"

“...... Give it a try, who knows? ”

"Prime Minister, I have an idea," Sha Michagan blinked and said suddenly.

"King Khan, please speak!"

"Wouldn't it be better if we held a general meeting in Yining, let Dibaonu be the leader of the alliance, integrate the Chagatai Khanate and the rest of Warat, and then return to Mobei together?"

"This," this time it was Ku Bada who hesitated, he cast his eyes on the sky, and pondered for a long time: "It's too risky to do this, this is equivalent to tearing your face with Mingguo!" ”

"Now that the cavalry of the Ming army has appeared in the old land of Warat, clash with the remnants of Warat, and its vanguard has already confronted the army of our Khanate, it is too risky to do so, no, no!"

Kuda shook his head.

"What then? Can't you wait for death? "Sha Michagan is a little anxious.

"I'll think again! I'll think again! There must be a good way! ”

Kumada muttered.
