The tent was opened, and the cold wind mixed with snowflakes poured in instantly, making the warm air in the tent stagnate.

The porridge that walked into the tent gasped for hot air, muttering and cursing the weather, and when he saw the fat sheep that was already golden on the bonfire, he suddenly cheered, hurriedly stepped forward and pulled out a knife to cut off a leg of mutton, and stuffed it into his mouth despite the fact that there was still a little blood.

In this frozen grassland snowy day, there is nothing more enjoyable than a warm tent and a roasted fragrant fat sheep, especially Ji Congee, who has been driving for a day in the snow. So Maudun did not reproach him for his rudeness, but smiled and watched him devour a whole leg of lamb, fearing that he would choke, so he ordered the maid to serve him a bowl of hot mare's milk.

Ji Congee put down the leg of mutton, took the mare's milk wine and drank it all in one sip, the hot liquid instantly warmed the cold body, and Ji Congee couldn't help but burp comfortably. His eyes fell on the maid's bulging chest, and her eyes showed a wolf-like desire, and the maid was extremely frightened by his eyes, and involuntarily took a step back. If the eyes could replace the movements, I am afraid that the clothes on the maid would have been removed dozens of times.

Since he set out to fight in Hun Yu and Bract II, he has been chasing and fighting in the wind and snow all day long. Ji Congee hadn't touched a woman for a whole month, and he naturally couldn't bear it anymore because of his strong desire. The desire in Ji Congee's eyes naturally couldn't escape Mao Dun's eyes, he just smiled slightly and said; "Okay, I'll reward you if you want her, but it's still important now, and you can do whatever you want when the meeting is over."

Hearing Mao Dun's words, all the nobles in the tent showed a knowing smile, everyone is a man, so they naturally understand the meaning of Mao Dun's words. Ji porridge is a face of great joy, bow down and thank you; "More uncles."

The maid was pale, her beautiful face and eyelashes trembling slightly, and her heart was extremely frightened. The cruelty and immorality of Ji Congee were well known among the Xiongnu tribes, and she was given to him as a reward, and nine times out of ten she was to be ravaged to death. But she was just an ordinary Hun woman, thinking that she still had her parents and younger brother at home, so she had to kneel down tremblingly and thank her.

Ji Congee reluctantly withdrew his gaze from the maid, although he was extremely strong and always unscrupulous about what he wanted, but he still knew how to measure himself. After all, this is a royal court meeting just sitting in front of him, and even if Mao Dun favors him again, he will not let him act arbitrarily.

sat down, bent over his chest and said loudly to Mao Dun; "Uncle Yu, this time the northern expedition of my Huns returned victorious, the invasion of the territory of Hun Yu, Qu Shot has been completely defeated by my army, the two departments of Kun and Xin Li are also afraid of the strength of my Huns, this time they sent an envoy to Longcheng with me, and now they are waiting for your summons in the wind and snow."

Mao Dun waved his hand and said disapprovingly; "Just let them continue to wait, respect is etiquette for the strong, and the weak are not qualified to obtain. If they had been acquainted with each other at the beginning and submitted to my Great Huns, I would have given them rich gifts, but now they have come to vote for nothing more than fear of our strength. In that case, it is better to let our arrogance give them greater fear. ”

"It's that Hun Yu and the second part of the refraction, and they actually ate the bear's heart and leopard gall because of the disaster, they dared to come and rob my Great Huns, this time you did a good job, presumably it will be difficult for them to recover within ten years."

Then he looked at Ji Congee with a gentle face and said; "It's been a hard time for you, tell me, my nephew, what kind of reward do you want?"

Ji Congee lowered his head deeply, and said in a rough voice: "Uncle, it is my honor to serve you and the Great Huns, if you want to say the request, hehe, that is, you have to give me more opportunities to kill the enemy for fun." ”

Mao Dun laughed when he heard this, and said; "Okay, as you wish."

At this time, a cold snort sounded, and I looked at the voice, but it was the first one sitting on the left. Seeing Mao Dun's gaze looking at him, he bowed slightly, and then said to Ji Congee; "I don't know how much King Hugh Tu brought back from his northern expedition for my Huns."

Ji Congee's originally smug smile couldn't help but stagnate, and then he glared at Yu Zhiyasi, and said with a fierce look in his eyes; "More than 46,000 people were beheaded, more than 22,000 people were captured, and more than 20,000 sheep were captured."

Xiao Zhiya laughed, looked at Ji Congee with contempt and said; "Every general of our Huns went out to capture and beheaded, except for you, the king of Hugh Tu, an exception. You must know that the men of those conquered tribes should have become the horse warriors of my Hun tribe; Those captured women were supposed to give birth and serve my Hun men. But you are good, with a wave of the murderous sword, tens of thousands of heads fall to the ground every time, you are happy, but my Huns have not reaped any benefits. ”

Saying this, he turned to Maudun, bowed and stroked his chest; "Da Shan Yu, if every time we Xiongnu fight, we are like King Hutu, I am afraid that more and more tribes in this grassland will turn their backs on us. The tribes on the grassland were originally like floating clouds in the world, and they never had a fixed belonging. If our Great Huns want to be strong, they can only go to the Hanhai Sea and merge the streams and rivers everywhere into it, so that the tribes on the grasslands can be conquered by our Huns, and finally integrate into our Huns. If every general kills indiscriminately like King Hugh Tu, then how can my Great Hun become stronger! ”

In the end, he was furious, and he pointed at Ji Congee angrily without mercy. Mao Dun, who was sitting on it, had already looked a little unkind when he heard the harvest brought back by Ji Congee. After hearing the words of Yu Zhi Yasi, his face turned even pale, Huo De stood up, walked to Yu Zhi Yasi, looked at him deeply, and suddenly bent down and bowed down. Yu Zhiya was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly helped Shan Yu up, hurriedly saying that he didn't dare.

Mao Dun stretched out his hand to stop him, and said in a straight voice; "King Zuogu Li is thinking about the prosperity of my Great Huns, and everything he says is extremely true, why can't he afford my worship." After speaking, he turned his head and glared angrily at Ji Congee, and shouted, "Don't roll over yet." ”

Ji Congee saw Mao Dun glaring at him viciously, and he actually had a deep intention in his heart, and hurriedly knelt down in a panic, and crawled in front of Mao Dun. Although he is not afraid of heaven and earth, he is fierce and extremely murderous, but he is deeply afraid of this usually gentle uncle, and he naturally can't imagine that this is the majesty of the king.

Maudun reprimanded; "If you violate the military order and burn at will again, then don't blame me for not thinking about my uncle and nephew."

Speaking of this, Mao Dun's tone was calm, and Ji Congee nodded again and again, knowing that what he said was definitely not intimidation.

"I don't apologize to King Zuogu yet."

Ji Congee was extremely afraid, where did he dare to have any arrogance, and hurriedly bowed his head to apologize to Yu Zhiyasi. Seeing that Mao Dun had given enough face, he took the opportunity to step down and give in, and a tense internal fighting between the two major factions of the Huns was easily resolved by Mao Dun inadvertently.

After the meeting of the royal court, Ji Congee walked out angrily, he was extremely angry in his heart, and felt that he had won such a big victory not only without a reward, but was scolded by Mao Dun in public, which was simply a loss of face.

His face was gloomy and ugly, and he didn't even have the interest in playing with women, and he was just thinking about how to get revenge on that old horseman from Knowyas.

Yu Zhiyasi is the head of the Huyan family of the Xiongnu, and the Huyan tribe where he is located is the second largest caste of the Xiongnu, second only to Shan Yu's own clan. Although the Huyan tribe was far inferior to the royal clan in terms of population and territory, it was also a force to be reckoned with among the Xiongnu. He was also a rare wise man among the Huns, and Mao Dun had always respected him, and after he ascended the throne, he was promoted to a high-ranking and powerful king of Zuogu Li, who oversaw all things in the royal court.

The grassland has always relied on strength to speak, and the heavy use of Mao Dun naturally attracted the jealousy of the royal family. And Ji Congee is the most outstanding representative of the new generation in the royal family. He was Maudun's own nephew, and his father was the eldest son of Tou Mandanyu, but unfortunately he died young and withdrew from the struggle for the throne early. It is precisely because of this that he will be greatly promoted by Mao Dun as a confidant.

Ji Congee is brave and good at fighting, and is born with great strength, can tear the black bear with his bare hands, and is known as the first warrior of the Huns. Coupled with the respect of his own identity, he was loved by Mao Dun, and he was appointed as the king of Hugh Tu at the age of twenty-five. However, there is a criticism of Ji Congee, that is, a thirst for killing, an unusual thirst for killing.

The steppe did not exclude slaughter, on the contrary, suitable bloodshed and massacre could bring greater deterrence to the Xiongnu, so that some tribes did not dare to resist the Xiongnu for life. It's just that Ji Congee's thirst for killing is different from any Xiongnu nobleman, and his cruelty is revealed from his bones.

He had ordered the men, women, and children of the next tribe to be brutally killed, and their heads had been placed on an altar as trophies for him to show off, only because a child of the tribe spat at him. The last time he went south to Qindi with Mao Dun, his subordinates closed their doors and plundered after capturing a county town in Yanmen, and when other friendly troops passed by here ten days later, they were surprised to find that the whole city had already stenched and became a dead city. Men, women, and children were tortured before they died, and there was not a single survivor of the city's more than 34,000 men, women, and children.

The brutality of Ji Congee was well-known among the Huns, and even the Huns avoided him like a snake and scorpion, for fear of attracting the displeasure of this murderous demon king. And the nobles of the Huns also sneered at him, a murderous man, believing him to be just a barbaric butcher, and usually disdained to be with him, especially the disgust of the Zhiyasi.

But Maudon still favored him, on the one hand, he was indeed a rare general, and he was very brave in battle; On the other hand, when Maudun ascended to the throne, he slaughtered many opposition forces of the royal family, while the power of foreign surnames gradually rose one after another. Therefore, out of the need to maintain the royal power, Maudun must also promote more talented people in the royal family to calm the power of his subordinates.

Another most important aspect is that although Ji Congee is a murderous person, he is not a very politically minded person. In addition to his military talents, he is also in the politics of intrigue! The struggle for governance is almost a blank slate. That's what makes Maudon feel the most satisfied, he really needs a henchman he can control at will, without worrying about this person betraying him.

But there is a limit to Mao Dun's tolerance, and Ji Congee killed and looted at will behind his back three times and twice, which finally aroused the anger of Yu Zhiyasi. In order to appease Xiao Zhiyasi's emotions, and at the same time, in order to knock down the porridge, Mao Dun drank him sternly, which is why his mood was so low.

Ji Congee was full of anger at this time, and hurried away with his head down, but he almost knocked over a person who was blocking him. Ji Congee was furious, drew his knife and was about to cut it, but he recognized that it was Yan Fu, so he took back the saber stupidly, although his face was still gloomy and terrifying, but it was not aimed at Yan Fu.

Yan Fu was one of the most relied on advisors by Mao Dun's side, and he played a pivotal role in the royal court. In addition, Mao Dun intended to promote Ji Congee, but his head was not very bright, so many times he had to ask Yan Fu to secretly mention him. came and went, and Ji Congee also accepted Yanfu's affection, which was good for him.

Yan Fu rubbed the shoulder that was hit, smiled and whispered; "King Hutu is so angry, I think it's better to be angry about what happened just now."

Ji Congee snorted heavily in his nostrils, and said angrily: "Can I not be angry, I won the battle after all the hard work, but I didn't expect to be scolded by my uncle when I came back, who do you say can not be angry to death." ”

Yan Fu just smiled and explained; "King Hutu should also be considerate of Shan Yu's difficulties, what you have done, Shan Yu has been tolerant before, but in the eyes of those who have a heart, it is naturally a handle. Isn't this a last resort to scold you to quench the anger of the nobles, you must know that you are only twenty-five years old and have sat in such a high position, I don't know how many people secretly look at it. ”

Ji porridge took a sip of "puff" to the ground and yelled in a thick voice; "Lao Tzu's position is earned back on the battlefield by relying on real knives and real guns, if you look red, try it on the battlefield yourself."

Yan Fu said with a smile; "Yes, yes, who's to say no. But having said that, Shan Yu also has difficulties with Shan Yu after all, and I hope that King Hugh Tu can be a little more restrained in the future, so as not to give others the truth. ”

Ji Congee snorted heavily, but he had no choice but to respond in a muffled voice; "I know, you can go back and let your uncle rest assured."

Yan Fu said again; "Actually, King Hutu, you don't have to be discouraged, it won't be long before my Great Huns will gather all their forces and launch an unprecedented invasion of Qin, Shan Yu has already promised you to be the vanguard, are you afraid that no blood can satisfy your desires?"

Ji Congee was stunned for a moment, and then his face showed an overjoyed expression, and he said urgently; "Is that true?"

Yan Fu nodded, "Naturally, this is what I want to convey to you personally." ”

Ji Congee looked up to the sky and laughed a few times, swept away the previous haze, and then said with a smile on his face; "That's good, that's good."

"More guidance from the National Teacher, Ji Congee is stupid by nature, and many places are not very clear, so I often figure out the meaning of the wrong big single Yu, and I hope that the National Teacher can mention more to Xiao Wang."

Yan Fu smiled, and suddenly the expression on his face became a little playful, and after seeing that there was no one around, he lowered his voice and said; "According to the old slave's opinion, King Hutu is not only not stupid, but on the contrary, you are very clever and extremely clever."

Ji Congee was stunned for a moment, and then showed a bold smile, "National teacher, you are really good at complimenting people." ”

Yan Fu smiled "hehe" and continued; "There is a saying among the people of the Central Plains, called great wisdom and foolishness. King Hugh Tu, your cleverness lies in the fact that you can keep your head down, and it is really difficult for you to be a shrewd person who can deliberately pretend to be a rude person who does not understand any intrigue in front of him, and will only bury his head in war and bloodthirsty. ”

Ji Congee's face changed several times, but after all, he still said with a strong smile; "National teacher, you are really joking, but it's not funny at all, if it's okay, Xiao Wang will retire first."

Yan Fu stretched out his hand, made a "please" gesture, and said; "King Hugh Tu, please take care of yourself, but Lao Nu still has something to say. You are doing a good job, and you are very smart, and a wise lord like this genius alone cannot tolerate anyone who threatens his throne. Especially your embarrassing identity, not his biological son, but also has the right to inherit the throne, that is doubling the embankment. ”

"If it weren't for the fact that the old slave usually had a lot of contact with King Hutu and read countless people, I'm afraid I really wouldn't have seen that you have such an ambitious person in your heart. You are doing a really good job, not only has you won the trust of Shan Yu, but also has no suspicion of you. Instead, he leaned on his confidants. ”

Ji Congee's face turned cold, but he no longer spoke strongly against it, but said coldly; "National teacher, what do you mean by this, Xiao Wang doesn't understand it."

Yan Fu shook his head with a smile and said slowly; "You don't have to worry, my lord, since I am willing to say it today instead of going there to report it directly, I have a heart for you to make friends with King Hutu. However, the old slave has something that needs to be told again and again, and I hope you can take it to heart. ”

Ji Congee sweated on his forehead, "National teacher, please speak." ”

"He is a genius alone, a rare hero and a hero on the grassland, and I advise you not to have different intentions when he is there, otherwise you will definitely die an ugly death. As for the 100-year-old alone...... Hehe! ”

Yan Fu said that the smile on his face was a little weird, "Shan Yu is already over forty years old this year, and King Hutu is only twenty-five years old, which is the age when you are strong and have great achievements." Shan Yu's children are all mediocre people, and the Khan of my Great Hun has always relied on not the Central Plains Dynasty to rely on the death of the father and the son to succeed the eldest and younger, but on their own strength and ability. If you have the heart to win the championship one day, the old slave is willing to help, of course, not now, but in the future long after. ”

Ji Congee looked at this cunning old fox with complicated eyes, and somewhat understood what he meant, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, his efforts over the years would not be wasted.

After hesitating for a long time, Ji Congee thanked him in a somewhat obscure tone; "Thank you for the guidance of the national teacher, Xiao Wang will naturally keep it in mind."
