Everyone in the big tent was happy, and more than a dozen maidens with bare shoulders and deerskin skirts performed songs and dances in the tent. And the people on the side also picked up the bone flute, and the leather drum played music, and the big tent was full of cheerful tunes.

In the tent, a few pots of tiger meat hunted yesterday were served, as well as greasy mountain pig legs, pheasants, rabbit meat, and even pangolins, all of which were delicious mountain delicacies. In front of each person was a big basin, and they all tore the meat directly with their hands, and their mouths were full of blood.

And how can the people entertain friends without wine, and more than a dozen leather bags with wine were sent up in one go. Wu Gu Nai first picked up a skin bag of wine and saluted Li Chongjiu, and Li Chongjiu also picked up a skin bag of wine in front of him and drank it with Wu Gu Nai. The two of them were extremely arrogant, and the wine kept falling from their cheeks, and each of them drank half a bag.

You must know that the wine of this man is spicy and spicy, the wine taste is inferior, but the wine is extremely strong, a man with five big and three thick people, but after a few sips, he got drunk. However, after Li Chongjiu drank half a bag, he looked as usual, while Wu Gu Nai was a little unsteady on the other hand.

Everyone in the tent saw that Li Chongjiu had a very good amount of wine, and they all took turns to come forward to toast. Li Chongjiu did not refuse to come, everyone drank one by one, and Li Chongjiu was still not drunk after drinking a circle in the tent. At this time, everyone in the tent was speechless, and they couldn't hold it anymore after drinking for a while. However, according to the custom of the Ya people, if the guests are not drunk, the host is not bold and enthusiastic. So they had no choice but to bite the bullet, and that night everyone drank more than 30 bags of wine in one go, and simply drank all the wine in the tent.

The next day, although the people were drunk, they were more and more in awe when they saw Li Chongjiu. Everyone didn't see it when they killed the tiger with one arrow, but Li Chongjiu's extraordinary amount of alcohol was enough to impress these straightforward men. At the moment, there was no one in the entire camp who did not have admiration for Li Chongjiu.

"The patriarch is back!"

As soon as the words fell, the news of Tu Diji's return to the camp came, and countless men and women gathered to the side to greet him. Li Chongjiu was caught in the crowd and saw this famous general of the Great Sui. I saw that the other party was tall and horse, dressed in armor, burly, with a white beard fluttering under his forehead, but his eyes were shining, and dozens of cavalrymen who were like dragons and tigers were clustered behind, which was really extraordinary.

And the men and women on the side were cheering from all sides, obviously suddenly having incomparable prestige in the hearts of everyone. However, Li Chongjiu could see that Tudiji's face was worried, and he heard that the other party had gone to Liucheng, the county town of Liaoxi County, a few days ago, so he should have returned unhappily.

Li Chongjiu learned from Lin Dangfeng that the Liaoxi County of the Great Sui had a vast land, but there was only one county, and the number of households recorded by the imperial court was only 751 households, that is, only four or five thousand people. However, from Li Chongjiu's point of view, there are at least more than 5,000 people in the camp of the Yan people here. This shows that none of the people of Liaoxi Yan have been naturalized, and they are actually divided into two systems with the Han army garrison in Liucheng. It seems that Tudiji, the Taishou of Liaoxi, is also famous but not substantial.

Before he could rest much after Tudi Ji returned to the account, Li Chongjiu learned that he had been summoned. Picking up the tent and entering, Li Chongjiu felt a gaze looking up and down at him. Li Chongjiu did not raise his head, nor did he look at the other party in a discordant manner.

"If the old man doesn't look away, you are the champion, right?" This sudden place has been an official in the Han land for a long time, and he speaks a straight and round Chinese language.

"Exactly. I don't know how the envoy sees through it? Li Chongjiu was exposed at a glance, and he didn't hide it at the moment.

Tudi Ji looked at Li Chongjiuyan with a glittering gaze and said: "When I was in Yanmen, the old man saw with his own eyes that among your ten thousand troops, he shot down the golden wolf of the Turkic Khan, and later gave the Son of Heaven a knight as the champion marquis, how could I not remember you." ”

Li Chongjiu smiled and said, "It's a little bit of a trivial thing in the past, and it's not worth mentioning it." ”

Bang!

As soon as Li Chongjiu's words fell, the other party slammed his palm on the table, and shouted: "Champion Hou, you are deeply favored by the Son of Heaven, and you don't know how to repay the favor, but you boldly started an incident, divided the territory and rebelled, believe it or not, the old man killed you on the spot, and sent the head directly to Jiangdu!" ”

The other party was originally a joke, but suddenly the situation changed abruptly, and it turned into a fierce speech. Under such circumstances, Li Chongjiu smiled freely and said, "Isn't the envoy joking? ”

Listening to Li Chongjiu's sarcasm, he suddenly raised his eyebrows and said: "I have never seen such an arrogant person as you, in my big tent, you are the first person who dares to talk to me like this." ”

Li Chongjiu said eloquently: "It's not that you are bold and arrogant, it's just that you are strong because you are straight." It's just that since you are loyal to the imperial court, and now that the Marquis of Jingbian is rebelling, according to the three counties of Liaoxi, Liaodong, and Beiping, the envoy wants to be loyal to the imperial court, why don't you send troops to quell the rebellion, but go to Liucheng instead, and make some deal with Luo Yi secretly? ”

Tudi Ji was originally violent, but when he saw Li Chongjiu suddenly say this, his body was suddenly tense, but he suddenly relaxed. Tu Diji stood up, sighed, bowed to the south, and said: "The old minister has failed the kindness of the Son of Heaven, not because he doesn't want to put down the rebellion, but because of the lack of troops. ”

Li Chongjiu nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, I can understand the difficulties of the envoy, but I also have my difficulties, when I was framed by the villain, my life was on the verge of death, and I had no choice but to protect myself." But since the beginning of the army, I have only used troops against the Khitan and anti-thieves, but I have never fought against the officers and soldiers of the imperial court. Maybe you and I have different understandings of loyalty. ”

Tu Di Ji sneered and said: "Champion Hou can be eloquent, no wonder he deceived Li Yuan's daughter." Let him see you as a thorn in his side now, let's say, what are you doing here in Liaoxi? ”

Hearing Tudiji mention Li Zhiwan, Li Chongjiu couldn't help but look gloomy, but then calmed down and said: "I didn't come to Liaoxi because I had any plans, but to see what the envoy had planned?" ”

Tu Diji's eyes narrowed, and he said, "What are your plans?" The old man is a minister of the Great Sui in life, and he is a ghost of the Great Sui in death, as long as the old man is still in Liaoxi. ”

Li Chongjiu couldn't help sighing when he heard it, now the Great Sui is falling apart, not to mention the anti-king uprisings everywhere, such as Luo Yi, Li Yuan and others are also plotting rebellion, even if Li Chongjiu said it righteously, but because he is familiar with history, he has no heart to renew the life of the Great Sui that is about to collapse. Bandang saw the loyal ministers, at this time Liaoxi County was panicked, Li Chongjiu did not expect that the most loyal to the imperial court, not the Han officials in various places, but the general still insisted on the banner of the Great Sui here, and abided by the ministers.

However, such a loyal minister is not what Li Chongjiu wants to see, let alone what Luo Yi wants to see. Although Li Chongjiu knew that it was difficult to change this person's idea, he couldn't help but still want to give it a try. Li Chongjiu said: "Make the monarch loyal to the heart of the imperial court, but at present, most of this Liaoxi County has been taken by Luo Yi, and the peace and happiness of Wangnan have also been opened by thieves. ”

Seeing the look of silence on the face of Tudiji, Li Chongjiu said with a hot iron voice: "You also know that I am based on the grassland, and I have tens of thousands of cavalry under my command, and there are nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses in Huaihuang, Yuyi, and Shanggu, which can be regarded as a force, which is enough to protect your Yan Ya Department from the attack of Gao Kaidao and Luo Yi." As long as you are willing to agree, I will treat the people of the Tatar tribe as if they were my own brothers, and I will ensure that you Tatar people will live here freely for generations to come. ”

Suddenly, the earth inspector showed a bit of mockery, and said: "Champion Hou, the same thing was said to me by Jingbian Hou. So why should I listen to you? ”

Li Chongjiu said: "If you think that Jingbian Hou can believe it, it won't be delayed until now, right?" If I were Your Excellency, wouldn't it be better to have more room for maneuver in the current situation of Liaoxi Yao? ”

Tu Di Ji showed a thoughtful look on his face, and said: "Champion Hou, I have to admit that you are a good lobbyist. ”

"But we are faithful to the Son of Heaven. I know you must be saying in your heart why a fan would be so loyal to your Han emperor. You don't know that in the past, the Goguryeo people oppressed and enslaved us, collected harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and if they didn't pay, they burned down our houses and robbed us of food for the winter. We had to turn our backs on our homeland and flee from all sides. But the emperor of the Great Sui accepted us, gave us a sudden place to live here, and gave us shelter, although this Liaoxi place is not large, it is enough for us to stay. Therefore, all of us have a deep sense of gratitude to the Son of Heaven. And you and the Marquis of Jingbian are both traitors to the imperial court, I will never take refuge in any of you, and I can only understand your kindness. ”

Seeing that the other party was resolute, Li Chongjiu didn't say anything after hearing it, and got up silently. Tu Di Ji left his position, got up in person, and sent Li Chongjiu out of the tent.

When he arrived outside the tent, his complexion slowed down a little, and he said: "My sons are very admirable to the champion Hou, saying that you are a first-class hero in the world, just now my words are a little presumptuous, and I hope that the champion Hou will not mind." ”

Li Chongjiu smiled slightly and said: "Each other, so that the king's loyalty to the imperial court is admired." Again, whenever you can figure it out, you can find help. ”

Tudi smiled, but said nothing more.

At that moment, Li Chongjiu returned to the big tent, and Etuo immediately came up to ask Li Chongjiu about the details of the negotiation with the Tudi Inspector.

"Khan, this person is really stubborn, what kind of loyalty is there at this time, except for him, the other people of the Khan regard you as a great hero, and it is easy to accept them, if you miss it, it will be a pity."

Li Chongjiu said with a smile: "I don't plan to persuade the other party in a few words, don't worry, it's a big deal, we just lost a few days." I think there is still a turning point in this matter. ”
