Chapter 151: Out of Danger
The first step in self-help is to bring the two sides closer so that the robbers do not feel that they are on opposite sides. Now that it seems to have succeeded, the second step of his plan is to find some topics that the Jurchens can resonate with, so that they can have some trust in their words.
It's easy to say, but it's very difficult to really face kidnappers. First of all, it is necessary to find out what is going on in the minds of the Jurchens, especially Utabegus, and if their own words provoke their anger, then things will be bad.
So in the face of such a simple question as Uta Begu, Chen Yuan's mind also turned several times before he said: "Don't hide it, I have a lot of money in my hand now." Boss, do you know what I'm going to do with it? ”
Utabegu smiled, "Then what else can be done?" Buy, eat, drink! Endless food, endless good wine! ”
Chen Yuan nodded: "Well, the head man is the same as what I think, I think, our previous life should be the same, not afraid of the head person's jokes, my family is very poor, my biggest wish to study all the time is to be able to get a fame, so that my family can not suffer in the future, just like you said, endless delicious food, endless good wine." ”
Utabegus said, "Are you poor? How poor can you Song people be? We Jurchens are the real poor, and we are so poor that we don't even have our lives. ”
This is a very sad topic, he has to talk about the future, talk about hope! On the basis of the sentimental topic of Utabegu.
"Did the head man try that when his family was sick, he didn't even have money to buy medicine?" Chen Yuan asked in a low voice.
Utabegu didn't answer, but the look in his eyes had already told Chen Yuan that he had tried.
Chen Yuan smiled: "That's why I don't go to the top exam, I want to make money by doing business, make a lot of money, so that all my relatives and friends can live, that's enough." ”
Uta Begu looked at Chen Yuan, and a trace of strangeness flashed in his eyes, but it was gone in a blink of an eye. Chen Yuan continued: "Now I have done it, but, Chief, tell me, can I still go back to see my family?" ”
The flesh on Utabagu's cheeks shook twice: "Then it depends on what that woman does, I promise you, as long as she brings the Liao soldiers to take revenge and give us some ransom, I will let you go back and promise not to hurt you." ”
Chen Yuan immediately asked: "Chief, in fact, there is one thing I can't figure out, can you tell me?" Your ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, and deer antler velvet in Changbai Mountain are sold at sky-high prices in the Great Song Dynasty, why are you so poor? ”
Chen Yuan knew the answer in his heart, although the price of selling these things was high, the cost on the road was also quite scary, and it could not be bought and sold in large quantities, which made some merchants stop. This leads to the fact that there are no merchants when there are goods, and there may be no goods when there are merchants, which directly leads to low prices.
The purpose of this question is to see Utabegus's reaction, if Utabegu speaks, it means that he has taken the initiative a little bit, at least in the conversation, he has begun to dominate the situation.
In the future, it is very important to let the other party follow their own train of thought!
Only in this way can he quickly judge Utabegu's current attitude towards him based on the little bit of information that leaked out of Utabegus's words, and decide what to say next!
Compared with these fierce Jurchens, Chen Yuan is not as familiar as them in terms of physical strength and environment, so his only hope is on his own mouth.
Sure enough, Chen Yuan's question made Uta Begu gus gushing and scolding him from the Liao State to the Song State, including merchants, officials, and soldiers.
Utabegus believed that it was these people who cut off their lives. cut off all Jurchens from living. During his time of being nervous, Chen Yuan listened patiently, and said a few words from time to time, which made Uta Begu feel a special confidant.
After talking for a long time, it wasn't until Uta Begu vented all the dissatisfaction in his heart that Chen Yuan knew that the time had come for him to take the last step.
That is to stand in the position of the Jurchens and seek a way to live for yourself! It's time to really put your mouth to the test.
"I originally thought it was very glamorous to be a leader, but when you said this, it turned out that it was really difficult to manage the food and drink of the entire tribe." Chen Yuan's voice was very soft, as if he was talking to himself.
And Uta Begu also sighed at this time: "The enemies outside are better, but there are always some people in my tribe who don't understand me." ”
Chen Yuan smiled: "Of course I don't understand, if it weren't for the head man talking to me so much today, I wouldn't believe that you have these difficulties." After I go back this time, I will definitely persuade the emperor to open a market on the border, so that the goods of the Jurchens can be bought and sold smoothly! ”
If he really opened a border market, it would be a great thing for the Jurchens like Utabegus, and he couldn't help but be a little excited: "Can you really do it?" ”
Chen Yuan was not packing tickets at this time: "I don't know, I want to try." ”
Uta Begu hesitated for a moment, and finally did not speak, Chen Yuan knew that he still had to be further persuaded by himself, and continued at the moment: "If the border market is really opened, I will definitely come to you to set up a goods store here, and ask you Jurchens to be my buddy, and I will pay you wages. ”
Uta Begu also began to think about Chen Yuan's imagination at this time: "If that's the case, our story will be better,"
At the beginning of these words, Chen Yuan was very happy in his heart, as long as he agreed with his idea, it would be easy to say!
But just when Utabegu was just beginning to imagine, a Jurchen voice suddenly came from outside: "Touren! The head man is not good! Those Liao soldiers did not take the route of the trap we had arranged, and outflanked them from another road! ”
These words suddenly extinguished the hope in Chen Yuan's heart, and the whole person seemed to have fallen into an ice cellar!
Many of the eyes around him, who had been friendly just now, shone with hatred again. Chen Yuan hated a lot in his heart, if you want to say that women are unreliable, if you are late for a while, I may say it with this mouth!
Well, now it's all over! These Jurchens would definitely kill themselves before the Liao soldiers rushed in.
In his heart, he read a sentence with hatred: "Yelu Ling! ”
Shanta pulled out a steel fork: "I'll kill this guy first!" ”
Chen Yuan had no ability to resist at all, lying on the ground with a pale face, very unwilling in his heart, could it be that Chen Shimei, who has been famous for a hundred years, was about to be ended up by himself between the white mountains and black waters?
"Wait!" Uta Begu suddenly shouted to stop the mountain tower, then turned around and looked at Chen Yuan with his eyes: "You are a good person, among the Liao and Song people I have seen, there are few like you." It was useless for me to kill one of you, so I let you go, and I blindfolded him, so that he could not see where we came from. ”
Chen Yuan was stunned, he didn't expect things to end like this in the end, seeing that a few Liao people came over to tie him up and didn't struggle, Chen Yuan said: "Touren, I don't know if I can convince the emperor, but when I return to Yanjing, I will definitely let people send a batch of grain over!" When the time comes, just ask the leader to come to this cave to get food! ”
No one spoke, and all that was left was a jumble of footsteps.
After a long time, there was another wave of footsteps from far and near, and no one in the middle kept shouting: "Hurry up! Hurry up! Don't let them run. ”
Chen Yuan knew that the Liao soldiers were coming, and hurriedly moved his body, making some noises in his throat.
"Lord Chen! Quick, untie him! Chen Tian heard Xiao Da's voice, which was now a natural voice to Chen Yuan.
The rope on his body was removed, the black cloth that was blindfolded was also removed, and the world in front of him appeared bright again, Chen Yuan unconsciously showed a smile on his face, and opened his mouth to say: "This world is so beautiful!" ”
Xiao Da stepped forward to check: "Master Chen, are you okay?" ”
Chen Yuan shook his head: "It's okay." ”
Xiao Da asked again: "Where did those Jurchens go?" ”
Chen Yuan glanced at him: "You look at the way I was just now, it seems that you can see clearly where they are running?" ”
Xiao Da smiled apologetically and said to the soldiers behind him, "Take Master Chen out to rest!" ”
Out of the hole, Yelu Lingling was standing outside anxiously waiting for news with Yelu Neglu and Yelu Hongji, after Chen Yuan showed his head, Yelu Hongji immediately jumped up happily and hugged Chen Yuan's shoulder: "Chen Shimei, I knew you must be fine!" ”
At this moment, Chen Yuan really felt Yelu Hongji's true feelings. Why is it Jeruhomchi and not his sister? Peeking in, Yelu Lingling was standing aside, her face was also full of smiles, and there were still a little transparent tears in her eyes.
Yelu Gollum also walked over and patted Chen Yuan on the shoulder: "Brother Chen, I was still thinking just now, if the Jurchens use your surname to blackmail me, what should I do?" To be honest, I was really embarrassed, but now it seems that I am thinking too much. ”
Chen Yuan laughed and said: "Their biggest mistake is that they didn't plug my mouth, I survived with my mouth kung fu." ”
The three of them laughed at the same time, and Yelu Ling on the side heard Chen Yuan talking about kung fu, and couldn't help but think of the intimate contact between the two people before they got out of the hole, and their faces turned red. Chen Yuan saw it in his spare eyes, and secretly thought in his heart, you almost killed me just now, and I will let you learn my kung fu when I go back.
The Jurchens were obviously quite familiar with the terrain of this area, and it didn't take long for the searching soldiers to report that many footprints were found in the back mountain, and judging from the degree to which the footprints were covered by wind and snow, the Jurchens should have gone far.
Yelune sighed: "Let's also collect our troops, in this mountain, even if they leave footprints, we can't catch up." ”
Yelu Hongji nodded: "Well, we don't have much food, I think we can go home when the road can be walked a little, what does Brother Jiu think?" ”
When Yelu Gollum is facing Yelu Hongji now, he has a very depressed feeling in his heart, especially this kind of depression has no way to vent, which makes him even more uncomfortable, he also wants to leave, leave this, and find another opportunity to prove to others that he is indeed much stronger than Yelu Hongji.
The unexpected course of this battle caused an uproar in the court of the Liao State, and those people led by Yelu Renxian had already completely seen through the intentions of the Liao Xing Sect when the Liaoxing Sect sent Yelu Nie Gulu to rescue Yelu Hongji, but they were powerless about it.
Just when they were distressed that they could no longer prevent Yerune Gollum from ascending to the throne of the crown prince, God sent them a great gift, and Yerune Gollum lost.
This is not an uncommon thing, the Jurchens have rebelled many times, and the Liao State has often suffered defeats in sending troops to encircle and suppress, but what is strange is that Yelu Hongji, who has always been regarded as a waste by them, miraculously turned the tide, not only rescued Yelu Gollu and the Nine Princes, but also killed the Jurchens' living force in a battle, which is simply a miracle!
At this time, Xiao Dali was also very satisfied with this result, listening to Xiao Suli tell her about the battle, Xiao Dali was very satisfied, and a smile appeared on his face from time to time.
After Xiao Suli finished speaking, he also sighed: "Sister, Hong Ji performed very well this time, we didn't have time to use many of our plans, and he actually won the battle!" I think, should we strike while the iron is hot and let the emperor change his attitude towards Hong Ji? ”
As if he didn't understand what he said, Xiao Suli immediately explained: "My people are now around those Jurchens, and they only have a few hundred remnants now, if this information is revealed to Hong Ji, wouldn't it be another great achievement?" ”
