Chapter 274: The Question of Position

People don't want to do anything in winter, which Qin Ze envies those mountain bears who can hibernate. As soon as you fall asleep, you will already wake up to spring.

Instead of being like him, a grass-eating Mianyang got into the meat-eating wolves, and it was impossible to sleep peacefully.

In order to be able to gain Jieli's full trust and accelerate the demise of the Turks, Qin Ze had more things to do.

As a spectator of history, Qin Ze knows better than anyone what the Turks will suffer this year. A once-in-a-century blizzard will hit the grasslands, and it was this blizzard in the second year of Zhenguan that became the last straw that overwhelmed the Turks.

After this blizzard, it was a turning point in history. After this winter, Datang, which has always been at a disadvantage, is about to start a counterattack.

On the other hand, Jieli is still full of confidence, in his opinion, as long as his million-dollar iron horse is still there, there is no need to be afraid of Datang at all. In addition, now that Qin Ze has proposed floor heating, as long as he has this thing, his people will not freeze to death. When the long winter is over, you can go to Datang to plunder supplies.

All the Turks thought that this was just an ordinary winter, although it was a little early, but it would eventually pass......

These days, after completing the renovation of Jieli's residence, Qin Ze completely lost the opportunity to get close to Tang Jian. But he didn't have to approach it, because he clearly felt the resistance of those people to him.

"Why is Tang Gong still so calm? Now that the Turks have a plan for floor heating, they don't have to be afraid of heavy snow in the future. I'd better leave for Datang as soon as possible and inform Your Majesty of this matter as soon as possible. Pan Sheng bowed down and stood beside Tang Jian and said with a sad face.

Zhai Xun on the other side also had a solemn face, and this time the Turks were clearly here to appease the Weishui Alliance. But in fact, they all knew that in order to find out the real situation of the Turks now, they originally thought that this year's heavy snow would definitely freeze countless Turks to death. Can ...... now

"Yanagisawa? I've never heard of this name, but I don't know who it is. Anyway, it's also my Tang Dynasty blood, how to do such a thing to lose my ancestors! Zhai Xun clenched his fists, eager to put up a sword and kill Liu Ze, who did not hesitate to betray the Tang Dynasty for the sake of glory and wealth.

Although Tang Jian didn't speak, he also felt messy in his heart at this time, different from Pan Sheng. He already knew Qin Ze's true identity, but now that he saw him doing such a thing, he was also very hesitant in his heart.

He didn't know what Qin Ze relied on to make Li Er attach so much importance to it, but since he was willing to be the sword in Li Er's second-hand, he had to carry out every order of Li Er.

Moreover, being able to survive alone under the heavy siege of the Turks shows that Qin Ze's ability is definitely not ordinary.

It's just that ability is sometimes more deadly.

Tang Jian was thinking about this, and the old gentleman was also thinking about it. Early in the morning, in the wind and snow, the old gentleman swayed to Qin Ze's tent.

Qin Ze seemed to know in advance that he was coming, and as soon as he entered the tent, a bowl of butter tea that was just the right amount of temperature was handed to the old gentleman.

However, after the old gentleman took a look, he turned sideways and looked behind Qin Ze again. When he saw that there was still wine on the stove, he smiled and pushed away the butter tea handed over by Qin Ze, and wanted to grab the bowl of lamb wine.

"The old gentleman should drink some butter tea first, the wind and snow outside are so big, it's better to warm up first."

Qin Ze insisted on handing the butter tea to the old gentleman, and he reluctantly drank it all. Then he sat down cross-legged by the stove and began to drink the hot lamb wine.

Some people drink to kill their sorrows, some people drink to help their fun, and the old gentleman drinks to die comfortably.

Just like he said, since he followed Empress Xiao out of Chang'an, he has been a whole person, and now he is a wine jug.

For this reason, the old gentleman also self-deprecatingly gave himself the name of a wine pot layman, and said that he would fill all the fine wine in the world......

When the old gentleman drinks, he doesn't like to be disturbed. So as long as the old gentleman didn't let go of the wine bowl, Qin Ze would keep pouring him wine. After he drank three bowls in a row, he comfortably reached out and grabbed the jerky on the stove to eat.

Qin Ze smiled and removed the wine pot on the stove, put the teapot back on, and began to make tea for the old gentleman.

Obviously, Qin Ze's approach made the old gentleman very pleased, and he couldn't stop laughing when he picked up the teacup.

"What is the old gentleman here for today?" Qin Ze knew that the old gentleman couldn't come to him for no reason, and that annoying priest was staring at them more and more strictly.

"Now that the heavy snow has completely blocked the roads of the grassland, the Khan decided to send people from the Chamber of Commerce to divide into two routes, all the way to the border to see if they can trade with the Tang merchants. The other way is to go to Hu Shang and exchange some supplies with them. The old man also happened to want to come over for a drink, so he came to deliver the news. The old gentleman drank tea and ate jerky, but his eyes never left Qin Ze.

"The old gentleman told the student about this, I don't know what he meant?" Qin Ze frowned, now as long as it is beneficial to him, he is even more jealous.

"Khan wants you to take the people of the Chamber of Commerce to choose all the way."

Although the old gentleman's tone was flat, Qin Ze was shocked when he heard it. Without thinking about it at all, Qin Ze shook his head and decided: "The student is willing to go to Na Hu to discuss, after all, it is still too far to go to the border pass." The students are thin and can't afford it. ”

Regardless of whether this was a temptation by Jieli to himself, Qin Ze was not ready to go to the border pass. It seems to give yourself a great opportunity, but who knows if this opportunity will be the bait for fishing?

"Really?" When the old gentleman heard this, his eyes suddenly opened, and a stunning gaze was projected in his eyes, staring at Qin Ze deadly.

Qin Ze still said unhurriedly: "The old gentleman is here, but it's because of this floor heating. ”

This time, Qin Ze did not avoid the old gentleman's gaze, but directly greeted him.

"Tell me why." The old gentleman spat out a few words, but his eyes narrowed again, and the whole person sat lazily on the ground again.

In fact, the old gentleman came for what Qin Ze had already guessed, as a general of the Tang Dynasty, although he fled on the grassland. But he should also have his own perseverance, how can he do things that endanger Datang in order to make a living?

This is another game, Qin Ze is gambling, betting that the old gentleman's heart is not actually towards the Turks. And now it seems that Qin Ze has won the bet, and the old gentleman really doesn't want Qin Ze to do something beneficial to the Turks. This at least proves one thing, that the old gentleman still stands with himself in terms of interests.

That's enough!

A pot of wine, a pot of tea. When he came, the old gentleman was full of sadness, but when he left, he was relaxed.

Qin Ze personally sent the old gentleman into Jieli's guard circle, and it was not something he could set foot in further.

"Hu Shang is on the Hanner grassland fifty miles away from here, and someone from the Chamber of Commerce will inform you later. Hu Shang has always been cunning, you must be careful. As he spoke, the old gentleman covered his clothes and left with a smile.

Qin Ze watched the old gentleman leave, shook his head and sighed, turned around and prepared to go back and wait for the people from the Chamber of Commerce.

But he didn't want to turn around, but he saw the young man riding on the green slave, looking at Qin Ze with a smile.

After getting along these days, Qin Ze has already formed a friendship with the young people. So it won't be like before, always afraid of young people.

"How much wine has the Grand Duke drunk, and how can he walk a little unsteadily?" The young man was like a miser, thinking about Qin Ze's drink all the time.

Nowadays, all the wineries have moved to the Watur grassland, and because of the cold weather, the sales of lamb wine have also skyrocketed.

Qin Ze never asked how much money he made, anyway, every once in a while, the fat shopkeeper would send someone to send money. Of course, this money is to remove the lamb wine that Qin Ze took from here.

And although Qing Xiao got rid of his uncle, he was still supervised all the time, and it was impossible for Su Yi to sell him wine and drink, and if he was very greedy, this guy would come to pester Qin Ze.

"What's so good about wine that makes you so obsessed?" Qin Ze smiled and poked out a palm-sized wine jug from his arms and threw it over, this was what he specially prepared for the young man.

There are only four taels of lamb wine in it, and the young man has always had a sip of his own, so he will definitely give his brother the green slave a sip. So although Su Yi knew that Qin Ze gave Qing Xiao wine to drink, he still didn't see it.

Taking the wine thrown by Qin Ze, the young man also put it into his arms with a smile. The flask had already become cold at this time, so as soon as he stuffed it into his arms, the young man grinned with ice. But I was still reluctant to take it out like this, for fear that others would find out. At the end, I didn't forget to pat it twice with my hand, and my face was also satisfied.

Qin Ze was also a little amused when he looked at him like this. He walked up to him, took out a warm bag from his bosom and handed it to him.

The warm sac is made from the bladder of a horse, and Qin Ze specially sewed a layer of cashmere on it, so that after injecting hot water, it will be stuffed into his arms, even if he leaves the tent, he will not feel too cold.

Now seeing the young man like this, Qin Ze also generously gave him his own.

The young man took the warm bag, and he was still a little puzzled. But then he followed Qin Ze's example and stuffed it into his arms, and suddenly a comfortable smile appeared on his whole face.

"What is this thing called, and what is it made of?" The young man hugged the warm bag and asked curiously.

Qin Ze smiled, patted the Qing slave and said, "I advise you not to ask, otherwise you will regret stuffing this thing into your arms." ”

In fact, there is no need for him to say, the young man can understand it as soon as he takes it back. It's just that he just doesn't know what kind of expression he will have when he knows that this thing is made of horse allantois.

After sending the young man away, the two tigers who were still hiding in the snow revealed their figures.

"There are two people in total, both of whom are watching the Grand Duke. But I didn't get too close, so I shouldn't have heard anything. The second tiger trembled and reported to Qin Ze.

"Be careful to sail the 10,000-year-old ship, since there is nothing to do, I will be relieved." Saying that, Qin Ze patted him on the shoulder and hurriedly let him into the tent.

In fact, the reason why Qin Ze came up with a warm bag was also for the sake of the two tigers. After all, every time the Grand Duke or Suyi came, they had to hide in the snow. As long as the person watching them approached the tent, they would immediately notify Qin Ze. So that you don't divulge your secrets.
