In the following days, Guo Ye and others lived in Konoha Mountain.

However, the old city spirit of the Zhesi Wu people, that Tai Chi is really good. As soon as Guo Ye opened his mouth to talk about national affairs, he changed the topic.

hated Guo Ye so much that the roots of his teeth itched.

Seeing that things were not progressing, Guo Ye couldn't hang himself from a tree, and after a few days, he got up and said goodbye.

Zhe Siwu was not very staying, and after a few polite words, he nodded in agreement.

As for who Xiao Dan should belong to, he did not give a clear statement, but only said that it should be considered in the long run. Regarding Yelu Ashin's request to take his sister away, he was resolutely not allowed.

The great wizard acted in the entire Khitan Dynasty, and his prestige was very high, and neither Yelu Ashin nor Xiao Dan dared to disobey his will.

No one dares to fight, Guo Ye is an outsider, even if he is powerful, he can't use it, so he can only cry out in vain.

……

……

In the fourteenth year of Zhenguan, on April 28, Guo Ye and others arrived at the Ministry of Convenience.

The so-called Khitan Eight-Part Alliance, also known as the Dahe Alliance. And the nobles in the Gang Department are the Dahe clan. No matter how the alliance and the chief are elected, they must eventually be from the Dahe clan.

In a sense, this is where the royal court of the Khitan is located.

Like Zhe Siwu, on the surface, the Ministry of Convenience is very polite and thoughtful to Guo Ye, but when it comes to specific things, he is concerned.

It wasn't until the third day that someone informed him that he had been invited to a meeting of the Eight Ministries Alliance.

"The Tang Dynasty is poor, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites and the Duke of Qin Guo Ye has arrived!"

"Greetings to the angels!"

Hula, a group of Khitan nobles worship the ground!

Unlike Goguryeo, Silla, and Baekje, the kings of those three kingdoms were all crowned county kings, and their status was higher than that of Guo Ye.

But the head of the Khitan alliance was not so lucky. He was just given the false title of a "Governor" of Wusanguan, and he was not as good as Guo Ye, the Duke of Qin.

As long as you don't tear your face with Datang, you have to kneel down when you see Guo Ye! As for the other nobles of the Khitan, not to mention.

Guo Ye nodded slightly and said, "Get up." ”

"Thank you!"

As everyone came to a huge felt tent, the guests and hosts took their seats.

A middle-aged man sitting on the throne coughed lightly and said, "Qin Guogong is not very familiar with the people of our Khitan Eight Divisions, let me introduce myself first, my name is Mohui, and I am the current Khitan Alliance Leader, and I am also the Lord of the Khitan Department." ”

"It turns out that you are the leader of the Mokai Alliance, disrespectful and disrespectful!"

"I'll introduce you to other people, this is the Lord of the Daji Department Yu Gouzhi, this is the Lord of the Duhuo Department Ma Rihuo, and this is the ......"

He introduced all the chiefs of the eight tribes, and then pointed to a person: "This is our Khitan chief......

Guo Ye smiled slightly: "You don't need to introduce this person." Brother Cave, we haven't seen you for a long time! ”

Brother Cave clenched his fists slightly embarrassed and said, "It was really rude to walk in a hurry on Konoha Mountain that day and not to bid farewell to the Duke of Qin. ”

"Well said, well said." Guo Ye looked at Brother Cave, then at the Mohui, and said, "The two of you look so imaginary, but brothers? ”

"Pretty much."

Guo Ye was puzzled and said: "Yes, yes, yes, this kind of thing can be regarded as similar?" ”

Mo Hui explained: "Zai Xia and Brother Cave are indeed born of the same mother, but the father is not the same person. ”

"That's a half-brother!"

"Uh...... Nor can it be said that, in fact, our fathers ...... It's Father and Son! So, it's really hard to say whether we are brothers or not. ”

Guo Ye's face changed, and he said, "What? ”

"The customs of our Khitan and your Tang Dynasty are different. After the death of the father, the son can marry the father's concubine in addition to the mother-in-law. My mother married her father first and then her son, and we had two brothers. ”

Hearing this, Guo Ye was thundered, but after thinking about it again, ethics and morality aside, these two marriages have no blood relationship, and it seems that there is nothing wrong with it? In any case, it is much better than the chaotic relationship of the Silla royal family.

Seeing that Mo Hui and Brother Cave were not embarrassed, he had no choice but to say: "I see, I see!" ”

Quickly changing the topic, he pointed to an old man dressed as a Tang scholar and said: "Looking at the dress of this old man, he doesn't look like a Khitan, but like us Tang." ”

Brother Gu said: "Qin Guogong, you have misunderstood, this is not your Tang Dynasty, but Goguryeo!" ”

"Goguryeo?"

The old man smiled slightly and said, "It is true that my ancestral home is the Central Plains, but I have long since returned to Goguryeo. Now I have been ordered by the lord of my family to send an envoy to the Khitan! ”

Guo Ye's face changed slightly, and he said: "It turned out to be the envoy of Yuan Nanjian, your old man is so old, and he is not at home to live for a long time, but he is tired of driving and traveling to Khitan. Could it be that Goguryeo is gone, so it can't send a better leg? ”

The old man sighed slightly, and said, "I was really told by you, thanks to the Duke of Qin, now my Goguryeo talent is withering." If my old bones don't come out again, there is indeed no one to send! ”

His posture was so low, but it was really a bit unexpected by Guo Ye, and said: "Then I don't know if the old man has a high name, what is his official position in Goguryeo?" ”

"The old man's surname is Zheng Shuang's name Xiliang! As for the official position, I'm sorry, but I really don't. However, I can guarantee that every word of the old man is enough to represent the meaning of the lord. ”

"Zheng Xiliang ......" Guo Ye always felt as if he had heard this name somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

Mo Hui said: "When Zheng Lao reigned as the king of the plains of Goguryeo, he was famous for his swordsmanship in Sanhan, and he also had a great reputation in our Khitan. Qin Guogong did not have to doubt his identity, let alone his promise. ”

When Guo Ye heard the word swordsmanship, his heart moved, and he said: "I take the liberty of asking, is your old man the teacher of Silla Jin Yuxin?" ”

"Exactly! The one who got the mantle of the old man is the Silla Jinyu letter. ”

Guo Ye said respectfully: "Zai Xia has a lot of connections with the Silla royal family, so we are really not outsiders. ”

Zheng Xiliang waved his hand and said: "You can't say that, in fact, the old man has already cut off his robe with Jin Yuxin, and he has nothing to do with it!" ”

"Huh? Why? Brother Yu Xin is kind-hearted, he will not be a person who deceives teachers and destroys ancestors, right? ”

"It's not all his fault! I thought that when the old man taught him peerless swordsmanship, he didn't have any good intentions, and I really expected him to oppose Silla as the queen of the Gara royal family, and remove a big trouble for my Goguryeo. ”

Speaking of this, Zheng Xiliang sighed slightly and said: "What I didn't expect is that he has learned swordsmanship and knows his life experience, but he is still loyal to Silla. The old man not only did not bury a nail in Silla, but also cultivated a peerless general for it! What if you don't break off friendship with Yu Xin? ”

Guo Yeqiang couldn't help but smile and said: "The old gentleman laid out Goguryeo decades ago, and he is really loyal. Even if there is disharmony, it is providence, and there is no need to blame yourself too much. ”

"Hmph, you and I are not friends or foes. Goguryeo has today's disaster, and it is all because of you! I don't need you to pretend to comfort the old man! ”

"Friend or foe? Not necessarily, right? Guo Ye smiled slightly and said, "If my expectations are correct, the first person you should be loyal to should be the king of the plains of Goguryeo, right?" ”

"Exactly. The king of the plains had a life-saving grace for the old man, and the old man once swore that he would bow to Goguryeo and die! ”

"The King of the Plains gave birth to a son, the King of Infant Yang, and the King of Infant Yang was killed by Yuangai Suwen. Nowadays, the lord of Goguryeo is Yuan Nam Jian, the son of Yuan Gai Suwen. Do you acknowledge these facts? ”

"Of course the old man admits it!"

"That's going to be easy. The Gao clan is kind to you, but now the lord of Goguryeo is the Yuan clan. It stands to reason that you should take revenge on the Gao family. And we, the Tang Dynasty, took in Gao Jianwu and went on an expedition to Goguryeo. Same goal as you. Old man, we're the ones at the head! ”
