Chapter 378: Traitor
Su Kemu frowned, Medina didn't have any specific concept of recovering the country, she looked at Xiao Chen who was sitting below from time to time. (.)
And Xiao Chen has been observing the changes in Kerim's expression.
The other two lords also felt that Krimu's words made sense, and agreed with him, saying that no matter when Sukemu sent his troops, they would keep their promise and lead their own cavalry to help.
Su Kemu finally nodded and said, "Then send someone to the Baishan Clan to spy on the information first, and then make plans." Kerim, this matter will be handed over to you to be responsible, you must hurry up, we can't give Gullen a chance to gain a foothold. ”
"I understand that it is my duty as a younger brother to avenge my sister, so don't worry!" said Krimu with a swear.
Su Kemu was very satisfied with his son's performance, raised his wine glass and said loudly: "Let us drink this cup together, and gallop together in the future to destroy the traitor!"
Everyone also raised their glasses, and everyone drank it all.
Su Kemu put down the cup, looked at Xiao Chen with a smile, and said, "Gongzi Chen, I heard Nana say that you killed dozens of people, including Tu Xiange, with the power of one person, right?"
The little marquis replied modestly: "The main thing is that the younger generation was lucky and defeated Tushenge by sneak attack. ”
What kind of strength Tushenge is, Su Kemu knows very well, even his son Kerim is not necessarily Tushenge's opponent. If you can have a helper like him, the hope of winning will increase a lot.
"The old man has a reluctant request, I wonder if Chen Gongzi can agree?" the old man continued to smile.
"Speak up. ”
The old man glanced at his granddaughter first, and then said: "It is certainly not an easy thing to suppress the rebellion of the Baishan clan, the old man wants to ask Chen Gongzi to stay and help, I don't know what you think? Of course, we grassland people will not let people help in vain, as long as we can kill Gu Lilen and help Nana regain the position of patriarch, I can promise you any conditions." ”
He deliberately accentuated the tone of the words "any conditions", and the little princess who was smart enough to be smart had obviously realized the deep meaning of her grandfather's words, and her pretty face became red.
The little marquis stood up and said in a straight voice: "It is an honor for the younger generation to be able to help the seniors *** Gu Lilen, and I am willing to help." ”
"Okay, great, hahaha!" Su Kemu laughed happily and raised his glass again: "Da Chu Yingcai is really refreshing, old man has a toast with you!"
The feast lasted until late at night, and Xiao Chen, led by a maid, came to the room that Su Kemu had prepared for him.
The room was covered with a thick woollen carpet, a bed in the middle, a desk by the window, and a few books on the simple shelves.
When he walked over and picked up the book, he smiled dumbly, it turned out to be used by the Great Chu Dynasty to enlighten children, such as "Thousand Character Text", "Disciple Rules" and so on.
Obviously, this is Su Kemu in the vassal elegance, it is estimated that he does not know the words on these books very well, otherwise how could it be placed in the room of the most distinguished guest.
Most of the people attending the banquet had drunk too much, and only Krimu remained sober, and in the course of the banquet, he had already sent several spy teams to inquire about the news of the Baishan Clan.
Krimu sat in his room with a pot of tea in front of him, and he drank it without sipping, thinking about how to get his father to give up the idea of going on the expedition.
Once he goes out to fight against the Baishan Clan, his own more than 1,000 cavalry will definitely appear on the front line, and God knows how many troops will be reduced after a battle, as the lord and the heir to these cavalry, he has to think about this problem.
However, it is not difficult to see from the banquet that his father Su Kemu is very willing to send troops, and even shows the intention of avenging his daughter and granddaughter at the expense of all his belongings.
Just when he was distressed, a servant crept in from outside, bowed down and said, "Young lord, there is a messenger asking to see you." ”
"What messenger, I'm troubled. He was angry and said, "Let him go to the old lord...... The old lord drank too much, right, so I'll see you tomorrow. ”
The servant did not retreat, but lowered his voice and said, "Young master, people are fatally trying to see you, he is from the Baishan clan. ”
"Baishan clan, the people of Gu Lilen?" he asked in a low voice, and when he saw the servant nodding, he said, "Let him in, but I want to hear what Gu Li Leng wants to do." ”
The messenger was an intermediary, with a shrewd appearance, and bowed when he saw Krimu.
"Hmph, what did Gu Lilen ask you to do, he killed my sister, and we are about to lead our troops to attack him and avenge my sister!"
The messenger hurriedly explained: "That is a misunderstanding, Lord Gu Lilen did not want to kill his sister-in-law, in fact, he did kill her by mistake. Don't be angry, Lord Gulilen said, he is willing to pay the price for this, and give the young lord a generous compensation. ”
Krimu's eyes lit up, but he still said in a cold tone: "What kind of compensation? Could it be that if you pay something casually, you will get my sister's life back?"
The messenger bowed again: "He is willing to pay you two hundred horses, plus ten thousand taels of gold." ”
"Soul is faint, when my sister married into your Baishan clan, the dowry alone was two hundred war horses, plus one hundred cows and three hundred sheep!
"Listen to me, there's more to come. The messenger added: "Lord Gullen also said that as long as you can prevent the old lord from sending troops, he is willing to add another three hundred horses, and the two hundred horses in front and ten thousand taels of gold are considered as deposits. ”
Five hundred horses, plus 10,000 taels of gold, is enough for the Crimea to build a cavalry army of five hundred men, and I have to say that this is a great temptation.
Seeing that he was very interested, the envoy knew that this trip would definitely be fruitful, and continued to smile and said: "Lord Gulilen has always admired you, the young lord, and he is willing to become a brother with you and be the master of this grassland together. He's going to marry a niece to you, if you want. ”
The Baishan clan is the largest tribe in the vicinity, Su Kemu married his daughter to the past, just to stabilize his position in the border city, and his brother-in-law did not disappoint the old lord, asking for horses and soldiers for soldiers, and also helped Su Kemu defeat several strong opponents.
If he can still get the support of the Baishan clan, Kerim can also dominate the border city, on the other hand, if he offends the Baishan clan, without Gu Lilen's action, just a few other lords in the border city can make him doomed.
He was tempted to agree, but he was ready to bargain, and said, "I am satisfied with five hundred horses, but ten thousand taels of gold is a little little." ”
The messenger patted his chest and said, "I'll go back and tell Master Gullen that he will give you more money generously." However, young lord, you must also keep your promise, no matter what method you use, you can't let Su Kemu send troops. ”
"Don't worry, it's on me. Klim said proudly.
