After Dugu Jun left, Bu Lan got up and fidgeted, got up and walked around in the camp tent with his left hand holding his right hand, and various negative emotions such as anxiety, panic, and uneasiness continued to emerge on his face. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Dugu Jun's words not only made Blan understand that he was now in an extremely dangerous situation, but also directly pierced the problem that he tried to avoid in his heart, and even deliberately wanted to forget, he joined the church for power, not for faith! He has long become a pawn and puppet arranged by the Eastern Roman Empire in the Khazar Khan, but he is unwilling to admit his shameful identity, and now this protective film has been pierced!

Bulan suddenly stopped, and all the negative emotions on his face disappeared! He walked back to his seat and sat down, poured a glass of wine, and drank it down. After thinking for a long time, he immediately lifted the scimitar hanging from the tent wall and tied it around his waist and walked out.

After a while, Bran came to the door of Magat's tent, and the two priests stood at the door of the tent, and Bran asked, "Is Archbishop Magat asleep?" ”

Before the priest could speak, Magath's voice came from inside the tent: "Is it General Bran?" Please come in! ”

Bran walked into the tent, saluted Magath, who was writing with a pen, and said, "I'm sorry to disturb you so late!" ”

Magath put down the reed pen and got up and said with a smile: "General Bran and I don't have to be so polite, please take a seat!" ”

"Thank you, Bishop!"

After the two sat down, Magath poured a cup of hot milk for Blan, handed it over and asked, "Is there anything important that Bran came to see me so late?" ”

Bu Lan took the pottery bowl and took a sip of it, and said, "Bishop, the mission sent by Western Qin is negotiating with Ta Tinghan, do you know about this matter?" ”

Magat also took a sip of milk and nodded: "Yes, I know about this, if Western Qin can withdraw its troops, Western Qin and the Khazar Khanate will no longer fight, this is also what I am happy to see, and it is also a situation that the Eastern Roman Empire is happy to see!" ”

Bran said: "I received news that the envoys of the Western Qin put forward five conditions, and I don't care about the other four conditions, but the second one is to ask the Khazar Khanate to hand over the people who led the troops to loot the Western Qin caravan to them for disposal!" Your Excellency, you know, I was the one who led the troops to sack the Western Qin caravan in the first place. It is said that Asahan has sent someone to vaguely hint the news to the envoys of Western Qin, and he is going to kill me! When the envoys of Western Qin learned about it, they immediately pointed out and asked Azhuhan to hand me over to them during the negotiations, Lord Bishop, now only you can save me! ”

Magath soothed: "General Blan, don't worry about it first, I will find a way to deal with this matter, don't do anything wrong when you go at this time, understand?" ”

Bran looked at Magath and nodded after a pause.

Sending Bran away, Magath thought for a moment and got up and came to the camp of the diplomats of the Eastern Roman Empire, and the diplomat Hetius from Constantinople invited Magath to sit down and asked, "It's so late, is there something wrong with the bishop coming here?" ”

Magat didn't talk nonsense either, and went straight to the point, "Are you paying attention to the negotiations between the Western Qin Mission and the Khazarian minister in the past two days?" ”

"Yes, but I don't know the specific details, both of them are too well guarded!"

Magath said: "The leader of the ransack of the Western Qin caravan is Bulan, you know this, right?" Habil still didn't intend to let go of Bulan, he sent someone to the Western Qin envoys to vaguely reveal that it was Bulan who led the troops to attack the Western Qin caravan, and wanted to get rid of Bulan by the hands of the Western Qin people, so the Western Qin people directly proposed to ask the Khazar Khanate to hand over Bulan during the negotiations, you also know, Bulan is the object of our key support, our agent in the Khazar Khanate, with him, it is much more convenient for us to act in the Khazar Khanate! So I think we have to do our best to keep him, otherwise all the effort we have put into the Khazar Khanate will be in vain! ”

The diplomat Hetius thought for a moment and said, "Okay, you have to think of a way to do this, and if you need me, just say it!" ”

Magath immediately said, "My lord, I want you to come forward to put pressure on Habil and save Bulan!" ”

Hetius shook his head and said: "This is not appropriate, I am a diplomat of the Eastern Roman Empire, and Bran is a general of the Khazar Khanate, I came forward to intercede to protect him, what is this?" Wouldn't it make Habir even more angry? You are not an official official, but behind you is our Eastern Roman Empire, and you are an archbishop, and you have a lot of influence in the country of the Khazar Khan, Habil will not give you face, you are much more useful than me to come forward! ”

Magath hesitated: "In the past ・・・・・・, I have come out to intercede with Habil several times to rescue Bran, and this time I will go again, can it work?" ”

"Give it a try!"

The next morning, Magat came to Habil, who received him in his tent.

"Bishop Magath, is it okay for you to come to see Ben Khan so early?" Habil asked, drinking human milk.

Magat said directly: "A. Assassin Han, I received news that the envoys of the Western Qin Dynasty have asked to hand over General Bu Lan who led the troops to ransack the caravan of the Western Qin to them for disposal, and I strongly request that General Bu Lan must not be handed over to them!" ”

Habir was very unhappy when he heard this, and shouted: "Bishop, Ben Khan wants to remind you that you are only the bishop of the church, not an official of my Khazar Khanate, do not interfere in the affairs of my Khanate at will, this is very dangerous, do you understand?" ”

Magath was stunned, but still insisted: "A. Thorn Khan, I will not interfere in the affairs of the Khazar Khanate, but I want to remind A. Thorn Khan that General Bran is just a general, how dare he sack the Western Qin caravan without your order?" Do you want to put all the blame on your generals? If the Khazar Khanate could not protect even its own generals, then who else would dare to be loyal to you in the future? ”

"You are presumptuous!" Habil slapped the table angrily, pointed at Magat and shouted: "Magat, don't be embarrassed, if you really want to turn this matter over, then Ben Khan will settle old accounts with you, if Ben Khan told the Western Qin people that the mastermind behind the ransacking of the Western Qin caravan was the Eastern Roman Empire, and you were the executor, it was you who coaxed Ben Khan into your time and ordered Bu Lan to lead troops to attack the Western Qin caravan to tell the Western Qin people, what do you think the reaction of Western Qin would be?" Not to mention how Western Qin will treat the Eastern Roman Empire, but they will definitely not let you go! ”

Magat's face turned pale, and he even retreated two cloths before he stood firm, calmed down, and said: "Answer, don't scare me, I'm just a clergyman, even if you go and tell the people of Xiqin, the people of Xiqin will not necessarily believe it!" ”

"Humph! That's what Ben Khan is all about! Habil snorted coldly, "Magat, Ben Khan reminds you that since you are a clergyman, you should serve God with peace of mind, and stop jumping up and down and messing around, otherwise Ben Khan will not mind letting you go to God early!" Kill you, what can the Eastern Roman Empire do with Ben Khan? ”

"You ・・・・・・," Magat walked out of the tent in disarray.

Seeing Habir this time made Magat feel that death was so close to him, until he returned to his camp, he was still trembling, he knew very well that he was just a pawn, the Eastern Roman Empire used him to operate in the territory of the Khazar Khanate, but it would never make enemies with the Khazar Khanate for him, after all, the royal families of the two countries were related by marriage, and if there was no great conflict of interest, the relationship between the two countries would never be a problem.

Despite some fright, Magath recovered quickly, he didn't want to give up Bulan, this is someone who has spent years to prop up, if he gives up Bulan, his years of hard work will be in vain! After thinking about it, he got up and immediately hurried to the camp of Hetius.

Seeing his expression, Hetius asked, "Is it not going well to meet Habil and keep Bran?" ”

Magath nodded like a frosted eggplant and said, "Habil doesn't give face at all, I have a very unpleasant quarrel with him for this matter, and I am afraid that this matter still needs to be done by adults!" ”

Hetius shook his head when he heard this, and said, "Magat, give up Blan, he is no longer worth our effort!" To tell you the truth, Habil is already determined to get rid of Bulan, he has deployed everything in Samandar, and I just received the news that all of Bran's forces in Samandar have been eradicated! So, Blan is useless now! He can't control the situation in the Khazar Khanate, and he can't arouse Habir's jealousy! ”

"What? How so? Magath was dumbfounded.

Magath returned to his tent with a decadent expression, he knew that Bran had lost all his strength, and was hated by Habil, and it was worthless, but it was a pity to think about it, but he was unwilling, but Hetius's attitude made him desperate, Hetius's attitude represented the attitude of Constantine V and the Eastern Roman Empire, without the support of the Eastern Roman Empire, Magath had no confidence.

At this time, Bulan's voice came from outside the tent: "Is the bishop here?" ”

"General Blan, the bishop has gone on a mission, you can come back in two days!"

After Bran left, Magath felt that he couldn't face Blan, so he immediately packed up and left the barracks.

When Bran returned to his tent, his expression became extremely cold! He already understood that Magath and the Eastern Roman Empire had given up on him, because he had just received a boy from Samandar, that all his family and guards had been executed, that his men and cronies who had remained in Samandar had either been captured or killed, that his property had all been confiscated, and that he had become a loner.

Bran was resentful in his heart and scolded: "Magat, you old bastard, you are an old liar!" Hmph, now that I'm worthless, you and the Eastern Roman Empire will give up on me! Habir, you old immortal, if it weren't for me, how could you sit on the throne of the Khan? Now you don't need me, my strength has caused you to be jealous, so you have to eradicate me! Okay, well, you'll all regret it! ”

That night, Bu Lan quietly appeared in Dugujun's tent, and it was not difficult for him to find this tent, and Dugujun received him very warmly.
