The first year of Taixing, August. Southern Chu sent envoys into the grassland to ask Xiang Qiang for peace.

In the Golden Palace, the matter of whether to receive the envoys of Southern Chu is also being discussed.

"The envoy of Nanchu has arrived outside Danyang City, big brother, do you see it?" Mozang Kodorn asked.

"Nope!" Mozang Dag waved his hand domineeringly, "Peace? Whoever wants to make peace with them, let them go. ”

"Big brother, you haven't listened to their conditions, so it's not good to refuse them." Mozang Kodorn advised, "It's better to listen to what they have to say first, and then we'll make a decision." ”

"It's nothing more than giving gold, silver, jewelry, and stuff like that." Mozang Dag is very clear about the routines of the Central Plains people, "We also have these Xiangqiang, and what I want most now is land, a large area of land north of the Lan River." ”

"I know that brother, you are aiming for the Central Plains, but Xiang Qiang's side is still unstable, so it is better to delay it for a few years and ......"

"It's been hundreds of years, has Xiang Qiang been stable?" King Mozang Great Khan interrupted his sister's words and said disdainfully, "You are really a woman's opinion, now that we are in control of Qingyun, the Yele family and the Weimu family, and we will not provoke for the time being." This is a great time for us to send troops to the Central Plains. Don't even think about it. ”

"Okay, then I'll let the people from the Central Plains go back." Mozang Kodun backed down. However, afterwards, she did not directly drive the envoy away, but only ordered the envoy to be forbidden to enter Danyang City. The mission shouldered the heavy responsibility of the Holy Lord's account, how dare it really leave like this. I had to set up a tent outside Danyang City and camp on the grassland.

At the same time, Tuoba and his companions are secretly resisting the Black Rock Division. Alam waited for a few days, and finally on a dark and windy night, he saw the opportunity, avoided the watchers, and went out of the city alone and came to the stone mountain. According to the route said by Khan, he found the dilapidated and remote racetrack where Qin Luozhi was staying.

Alepmu sneaked in quietly, patrolled around the racecourse, and finally found Qin Luo in the stable. He hurriedly stepped forward and shook Qin Luo awake, "Wake up, Qin Luo." ”

"Who?" Qin Luo opened his eyes in a daze, and in the dark, he couldn't see the face of the person who came.

"It's me, Alem."

"Alemu, why are you here?" Qin Luo remembered, it was Tuoba Yan's companion, the one who rode well on the racecourse.

"The Khan asked me to come, and it will be inconvenient for him to come out to see you in the future."

"You want to speak for the Khan?" Qin Luo frowned and said, "But I have some things to say to the Khan in person." ”

"Although Mozang Kodorn has now let the Khan out of the Golden Palace, she still sent someone to spy on her." "For the sake of safety, the Khan said that in the future, we will reduce the number of meetings, and I will pass the word." ”

"It's inconvenient for the Khan to come, but I can sneak into the Golden Palace." Qin Luo proposed, "You told the Khan, as long as you can enter the Golden Palace, I don't care what identity or method you use to get in. ”

Alam was stunned, not understanding why Qin Luo had to see the Khan. But Qin Luo knows that now that Dachu is facing life and death, the success or failure of this peace conference is related to the next few years. He had to meet Tuoba in person and persuade him to agree to peace.

"I see, I'll tell the Khan exactly what I said." Alem nodded, "You wait for my news." ”

"Thank you." Qin Luo arched his hand and watched Alemu perform light skills and quietly disappear into the vast night......

"He said he wanted to see me in person?" After listening to Alem's relay, Tuoba Yan was also stunned for a moment, "But...... I can't protect myself now. If I wanted to summon someone like that, my mother wouldn't agree. ”

"He said that no matter what identity or method, as long as he can enter the Golden Palace." Alem proposed, "It's better to go in as a slave, and the more slaves there are in the Golden Palace, the better." ”

Tuoba Yan had always wanted Qin Luo to stand by his side decently, and he remembered that Qin Luo had asked him, in what capacity did he come to him, was he a staff member or a slave? Tuoba Yan promised the staff at that time, but unfortunately now that things have changed, the staff will definitely not work.

"Okay, I still have the right to be a slave. It's just ......," Tuoba Yan hesitated, "Qin Luo's debate in the Golden Palace at that time attracted the attention of many people. Later, although his father Khan did not say what crime Qin Luo had committed, some people knew that he was sent to prison. Is it really good to appear in the Golden Palace like this now? ”

"A slave, no one should notice." Alem scratched his head and thought for a while, "Let him usually keep a low profile, go out less when he has nothing to do, and walk with his head down, who will be idle and pay attention to the appearance of a slave." ”

"I hope so." Tuoba Yan said, "Tomorrow, you can let people lead a group of slaves into the Golden Palace to serve, and let Qin Luo mix among them." ”

"Yes." Alam commanded.

The Great Chu Mission, which was turned away, was also complaining at the moment. They didn't dare to openly scold Xiang Qiang, so they had to shift the spearhead and set fire on their own people.

"Poof-" Lord Zhao, the chief envoy of the mission, took a sip of mare's milk tea and spit it out directly, "What kind of thing is this, it's hard to drink." ”

"In Xiang Qiang, they only have this." An official surnamed Lu in charge of making tea said.

Lord Zhao put down the bowl heavily, "What are these things, I'd rather drink cold water." If you want to bring Longjing, you don't bring it, and there is food, their naan cakes are hard and hard to swallow. ”

The official surnamed Lu was reprimanded with a red face, but it was a pity that he dared not speak out, this Zhao chief envoy was a member of the royal family, arrogant and arrogant, and no one dared to provoke him.

Lord Zhao didn't eat the last bite of food, and let Lord Lu take it as it was. Seeing this, the accompanying officials patted Xiao Lu's shoulder and comforted: "Ziyu, Chief Envoy Zhao has this temper, and he will endure it." ”

Lu Ziyu smiled and shook his head: "I'm fine." He remembered the first time he and Mr. Zhang went to Qingyun, Mr. Zhang was in his sixties, and he still nibbled on naan, drank mare's milk tea, and overcame all kinds of difficulties.

It's a pity that when the country broke, Mr. Zhang was also martyred. Qin Luo, who used to act as an interpreter in the mission with him, some people say that he was captured and went to the grassland; Others say that he escaped from the palace and escaped the catastrophe. Lu Ziyu had searched for Qin Luo in many ways, but there was no news and he was nowhere to be found.

The old people of the mission, gone, scattered, and now he is the only one left......

The next day, Alem came to the racecourse openly and asked the old man Sandan for Qin Luo. The old man Sandan was so frightened that he waved his hand again and again, "It's not that I didn't mean not to give you this slave, it's just that he is a sin slave who was personally ordered by the Khan and focused on guarding." If you take him now, how will I explain to the khan in the future? ”

"You don't inquire about who my Alam is." Alam said proudly, "It's the Khan, let me take Qin Luo away." ”

After all, the old man Sandan has lived in Qingyun all his life, so he naturally knows that Alam is the Khan's companion. He looked at Alam in disbelief, and finally nodded: "This ...... Alright then, you take him. ”

Alem urged the old man of Sandan: "Go and bring Qin Luo, I'll wait here." ”

The dispute between Alem and the old man Sandan, Qin Luo had already heard it in the stable. At this moment, the old man Sang Dan came over and said to Qin Luo: "The Khan wants someone, you ...... Be careful. ”

"Thank you, uncle, for taking care of you during this time." During Qin Luo's punishment, he was not tossed to death, all relying on the protection of the old man Sandan.

"Thank you, we are all poor people, and if we can help, we will help. In the future, you have to take care of yourself. "The old man Sandan's relationship with Qin Luo has been together for a long time, and he has already given birth to a little feeling, he reluctantly sent Qin Luo out, seeing that Qin Luo was taken on horseback by Alem, and he was still standing there, looking motionless, looking at ......

Qin Luo turned his head, took one last look at the racetrack of Shishan, and then rode his horse and galloped, resolutely rushing to his own battlefield......
