Nilo Zhou smiled: "Then thank you Li Xingshou." Is Chile Flowering there? ”

A retinue in his thirties, dressed in a leather robe, with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, and a loyal face, walked over, pressed his hand to his chest, bowed, and said, "What does the Great Treasure King command?" ”

Niluo Zhou pointed at Li Jing and said in Xianbei dialect, the official language of Tuyuhun: "This is Li Xingshou, the representative sent here by our Han friends, he knows the whereabouts of the Great Khan, you prepare, I will write a letter, you take the letter and set off with Li Xingshou, and go to the Snow Mountain to find the Great Khan." ”

Niluo Zhou turned to Li Jing and said in Chinese: "This Chile Huading is a merchant who often travels to and from the snowy plateau in Tuyuhun, and is also a close confidant of the Great Khan. ”

Li Jing laughed, and said in Xianbei language: "King Dabao, I can understand your Xianbei language, but I really can't speak Tubo dialect, so I'm going to trouble this brother Chile Huading!" ”

A hint of confusion flashed in Chile Huading's eyes: "King Dabao, what's going on, why does the whereabouts of our Great Khan let this Han know?" Also, why do we go to Tibet and take this Han with us? ”

Nilo Zhou's face sank, and he waved his hand, interrupting Chile Huading's words at once: "These important matters are not something you should know, you just have to be responsible for handing over this letter to the Great Khan, and then bring his reply." As he spoke, Nilo Zhou took out a piece of parchment from his arms, picked up a charcoal stick, and wrote words on it, all of which were Xianbei characters of dragons flying and phoenixes dancing, and Li Jing stood with his hands in his hands and stood aside. Didn't take a look.

Wait until Nilo Zhou finishes writing. He also took a seal made of fine jade from the hand of the attendant on the side. He said with his mouth, then solemnly stamped a seal at the end, then rolled up the parchment and handed it to Chile Huading, and said, "You have to protect this letter with your own life, understand?" ”

Chilertins nodded hurriedly, and accepted the parchment. said: "Don't worry, King Dabao, I will definitely meet the Great Khan and hand over this letter to him in person." ”

Li Jing looked at Niluo Zhou and took a long breath: "Okay, now I'm going to get ready to go on the road, it just so happens that our lord said that I want to go to Tubo to see what business can be done, and the hundreds of silk horses and more than 100 sets of brass bowls I brought this time will also be traded with Tufan." Let Chile Flower follow our caravan. ”

A trace of doubt flashed on Nilo Zhou's face: "Caravan? Will it be too slow and misguided? ”

Li Jing smiled: "Don't worry." The eastern capital is four or five thousand miles away from here, and there is no one who can't come in two or three months, and even if Prince Murong Shun comes, you can also say that you have to consult with the leaders of various tribes and delay the time, anyway, without the order of the Great Khan, the election meeting of this new Khan will not be held, and the Great Treasure King does not need to be critical. ”

Nilo Zhou nodded: "Alright then, I'll stay here and wait for your good news." ”

Li Jing turned around and glanced at Liu Heimin, who was following him: "Heimin, go prepare the caravan, let's go on the road in the afternoon." ”

Five days later, in the Lima Valley in the south of Fu Qi City, which is the necessary place to pass through the direction of the snow-capped mountains in the south after coming down from Fu Qi City, a caravan organized by more than 100 horses and camels is passing through this valley.

Chile Huading kept looking back, with an anxious face, while Li Jing followed him with a calm expression, Chile Huading couldn't help but speak: "Li Xingshou, this speed is still too slow, you have to speed up, this is very close to the beggar tribe, let's quickly get through the valley and enter the grassland area in front, there is nothing to worry about." ”

Li Jing smiled slightly: "Oh? A beggar tribe? Are there still tribes in this steppe who do not obey the orders of the Great Khan? ”

Chile Huading shook his head: "That's not true, it's just that the last time the city was attacked and defended, King Dabao ordered to kill the leader of the beggar tribe, Qifuda, and negotiated peace with the Sui army, so the beggar tribe hated the king of Dabao, and after the city negotiated peace, they did not return to the original nomadic land, but came to the vicinity of this Lima Valley. ”

Li Jing nodded: "Then we have nothing to worry about, this time we are looking for the Great Khan, and the others are in Tibet, and the people of the beggar tribe will not embarrass us." ”

Before the words fell, a shout suddenly sounded on the hills on both sides, and the sound of trumpets rang out, and Chile Huading's face changed: "It's not good, there is an ambush!" ”

After seeing the rocks on both sides of the mountain, more than 100 Tuyuhun people with braided hair and leather robes suddenly appeared, each bending their bows and arrows, pointing directly at the caravan, and the well-trained caravan guards all raised their shields and hid behind the cart for cover.

Three high-headed horses appeared at the mouth of the valley in front, three Tuyuhun knights appeared there, and behind them were two or three hundred cavalrymen. ”

Beggar Blaze Keshu wore a chain mail and an iron helmet, which made his outfit special to the ordinary cavalrymen in leather robes and armor around him, and he exclaimed, "Who are you?" How do you pass through here? ”

Chile Huading hurriedly replied: "The one in front of you is Lord Begging Blazing Keshu?" ”

Begging Fu Chi Keshu said coldly: "Who am I, it turned out to be Niluo Zhou's dogleg Chile Huading, this is the caravan you want to lead?" ”

Chile Huading waved his hand again and again and said: "No, no, no, Lord Qifu misunderstood, this caravan is full of Han people, and they are going to Tubo to do business, I am just leading the way." ”

Begging and scolding: "Fart, are you kid an idiot?" You're also the right hand of Nilo Zhou's old dog, and this kind of guide thing will let you do? Brothers, get ready to shoot arrows! He said and raised his right hand in the air.

Li Jing's face did not change, and he said loudly in Xianbei language: "Lord Qifu, we are really Han, we want to go to the Tubo tribe on the snow mountain to see if there is any business to do, and we have a special mission, we want to find the Great Khan of Fulian, please let me go!" ”

Begging Blazing Keshu's face changed: "What did you say?" The Great Khan in Tibet? ”

Li Jing smiled slightly: "I have a token here, you can see it at a glance!" (To be continued......)
