Feng Lun touched his three strands of long beard, stepped forward, smiled, and said: "Pushan Gong, you and I are both children of the family, and this time we are destined to envoy the Turks together, needless to say, the situation of the lower officials, you also know, it's quite embarrassing, if it weren't for Yu Shilang's care, this would be just a common man, and you, Pushan Gong, as the prince of the Zhuguo, are famous all over the world, but the current official position can't let you play your talents, and the lower officials are really sorry." ”

Li Mi's brows furrowed: "These are just Li's private affairs, and Deputy Envoy Feng is too much to manage." Serving the imperial court, why should you care about the level of official position? Deputy Envoy Feng, you have suffered a big loss before, according to Li, it is because the utilitarianism is too strong, too eager for quick success, so that someone took the handle, it is said that with your brother's cleverness, you should learn a lesson, how can you be wrong again and again. ”

Feng Lun's face was blue and white for a while, but he still smiled: "Those are the things of the past, the case of smuggling pig iron, brother and I have been heartbroken in the past few years, after thinking about it, my mistake, or fatal mistake, is that I did not take into account the interests of the country, regardless of the national law, I just want to bring down Wang Shichong, although my purpose is not wrong, but the means are indeed excessive, the most important thing is that the smuggling of pig iron, harmful to the country, the Supreme will not support me." ”

Li Mi's face became a little better, he nodded, and said: "Well, it's good that the deputy envoy can realize this, in fact, that's what I mean, this time we sent an envoy to the Turks, it was a diplomatic action between the Great Sui and the subject countries, and nothing could destroy the relationship between the Great Sui and the Turks, and I know the mood of wanting to make meritorious contributions." But in case it doesn't work out. Let the Turkic Khan not come to power. Even if the heart turns against the Great Sui, when the time comes, you and I will have a small matter of life and death, and the Jiangshan Sheji of the Great Sui will be in danger, and you and I will be to blame even if we die. ”

Feng Lun smiled: "Pushan's words are serious, Feng is not talented, and he has also followed General Changsun to envoy to the Turks many times back then, so I still have some Turkic intelligence lines in my hands." When I learned about the secret meeting between Eulzhi Wende and Gao Baoyi, I immediately activated these intelligence lines, inquired in detail about the relationship between Goguryeo and the Turks, and all the information told me that before Eulzhi Wende came to the Great Sui on this mission, Goguryeo and the Turks had no contact, and the two sides did not even have a minimum of caravan exchanges. ”

"Because between the two countries, in the area of Liaodong, there is Yingzhou in my Great Sui, and there is also Khitan. And the north is the territory of the desolate and treacherous Beji people, which is extremely difficult to pass. So for many years, the two countries had almost no relationship. If it weren't for that, how could Wang Shichong secretly arrange for Gao Baoyi and Yizhi Wende to meet in his manor? This is a very risky one. ”

Li Mi nodded: "This is not bad, Wang Shichong is a person who is insidious and cunning, and he has always planned and then acted when doing things, if it were not for the extreme urgency, he would not have done this risky move, so Goguryeo and Turkic are the matchmaking of this person." Deputy Envoy Feng, it's a pity that you didn't catch the thief and take the stolen goods at that time, and now you have no basis to say it, what's the use? ”

A strange look flashed in Feng Lun's eyes: "Pushan Gong, I am looking for you today, that is, this matter, if I didn't have a perfect strategy and was sure to get the stolen goods in one fell swoop, how could I have been constantly inquiring about the news here in the Turks for so many days?" Now that I know very well the whereabouts of that Eulzhi Wende, as long as we catch him right, the collusion between the Turks and Goguryeo will be revealed, and then you and I will become heroes, and we will definitely be rewarded by the Supreme! ”

Li Mi was taken aback at first, and then said angrily: "Nonsense, there are Goguryeo envoys here, which proves that the two countries have colluded?" Besides, what if they really collude and don't do anything, just kill us, and really pull the flag and rebel? Feng Lun, you are joking about the national fortune of the Great Sui, I will never agree! ”

Feng Lun smiled slightly: "Pushan Gong, you are really too worried, with my intelligence in the Turks, Shibi Khan himself only just learned about Yizhi Wende a few days ago, and he didn't want to see him at all, but the big spy was arrogant, and he personally ran to this Dali City, so that Shibi Khan reluctantly agreed with him, and at the time of this meeting, Yizhi Wende opened his mouth and put forward the conditions for supplying them with five million catties of pig iron in one breath, which moved Shibi Khan and treated him like a guest. Now that the new Khan of the Turks has just been established, all the servant tribes are unstable, and at this time, they are powerless to compete with our Great Sui, and it is absolutely impossible to ruin the relationship with our Great Sui for the sake of a Yizhi Wende! ”

Li Mi gritted his teeth and said, "Having said that, after all, the Shibi Khan has sheltered Yizhi Wende, if we really directly start to search, it will not be a great insult to the Turks!" Even if they don't say anything this time, when they become strong in the future, they will defect from the Great Sui. ”

Feng Lun smiled and blinked: "That's later, the Turks will always be the wolves of the north, it is impossible to be like this for the rest of their lives, my Great Sui now looks like a four-way guest, but Goguryeo in the east and the Turks in the north are all wolf ambitions, sooner or later there will be a war, as courtiers, we should also think about the community, we must not let these two dangerous enemies really join forces, that is the disaster of the Great Sui!" ”

Li Mi pondered for a while, and said: "This matter should not be reckless, so let's do it, when the time comes, after we enter Dali City, you take someone to lock the residence of Ezhi Wende, and I will go to see Shibi Khan, knock on the side of him about this matter, if he admits this matter and is willing to take the initiative to hand over Ezhi Wende, then this matter is over, on the other hand, if he denies it, we can't startle the snake, you find human and physical evidence, confirm that Ezhi Wende has come to the Turks, and we will report to the Supreme after we go back, and ask him to decide." ”

A trace of disappointment flashed on Feng Lun's face: "No, if we can't catch Yizhi Wende and don't bring it back to China for interrogation, we won't be able to convict Wang Shichong, then aren't we all in vain?" ”

Li Mi's eyes flashed with coldness, and Feng Lun's heart sank slightly, only to hear Li Mi say coldly: "Deputy Envoy Feng, you yourself just said that state affairs come first, you can't put your personal feelings and things above state affairs, I know you hate Wang Shichong, and I don't like this person, but you can't spoil state affairs because of personal grievances with him, this time you want to forcibly take away Yizhi Wende, it's too dangerous, it's better to hand over this power to the Turks, and it can be regarded as giving them enough face, what do you think?"
