Chapter 91: The Distant Bowl (7)

"Will this be our home from now on?"

"Hmm."

"Will you ever leave?"

"We've been together ever since."

Listening to what her lover said, Princess Maria smiled. She was now wearing a cotton dress, her hair was coiled and wrapped in a towel. Opposite her, Boyan Dashuai was lying lazily on the rattan chair, looking as if he was about to fall asleep. It had been here for several days, and it was Princess Maria who commanded the servants to tidy up the manor, and she had an infinite passion for tidying up the place where she might live for the rest of her life. However, Boyan is like a cat, no matter what the habitat looks like, as long as it doesn't disturb him, he is lazy and dozing.

Princess Maria found herself unable to hate such laziness.

However, Boyan was an important Mongol minister, and early the next morning, he set out for Jerusalem. There are too many official duties waiting for Boyan to deal with. Since Jerusalem resisted, Kublai Khan naturally would not let go. The old men in the city were killed, and the prime of life was shackled and sent to hard labor. Women and children no taller than wheels were taken to Baghdad, and the Mongol Khan needed to reward families with women and population. So the city of Jerusalem seemed deserted.

The Jewish army in the Mongol army insisted on being stationed here. This is their homeland, and for a thousand years they have not been able to return as conquerors, and only now have they been able to do so.

Marshal Boyan was not worried about any military problems, now only others hoped to avoid the attention of the Mongol army, and there was no situation where others took the initiative to attack the Mongol army. In such a safe environment, Marshal Boyan only handled a few official duties, and then prepared to go back to the manor.

The people around him looked at the actions of Marshal Boyan, and they all had the meaning of wanting to stop talking. Marshal Boyan didn't care at all, and just waited for sure that the last people sent to Baghdad would be sent away, and he could call it a day and go home.

The recapture of Jerusalem was of great significance to Christendom. But nearly 200 years ago, after the end of that great shock, the European upper echelons became more and more realistic about Jerusalem. The disproportionate investment in the fight for the land and the income from the land were disproportionate, and when the religious fervor subsided, the monarchs had to take into account this fact.

And even in reality, the Crusaders have already taken Jerusalem. But God does not seem to have blessed these believers who threw themselves into the war because of this. The Crusades did kill many pagans, and many believers died. If everything is God's will, why did God watch his followers lose to the infidels?

If Marshal Boyan was in Baghdad and beside Kublai Khan, he would have been able to deal with the liaison with the European monarchs. The current Marshal Boyan is alone outside, and his handling of diplomacy is to kill himself.

The commander's subordinates were very capable, and they were able to reap the benefits of population transfer, and when he saw that his subordinates began to do their own business, the commander immediately left Jerusalem and returned to the manor. Inside the manor, Boyan once again returned to a lazy state. This laziness around his sweetheart is the life he wants. Watching Princess Maria make corrections to the manor as the hostess of the manor, nothing could make Boyan feel more at ease than this.

But such a good life is always easily interrupted, the envoy of the prince Zhenjin sent a letter from the prince, saying in his heart that after Kublai Khan returned to Baghdad, he received the envoy of the Great Song Dynasty, and after hearing the request of the Great Song envoy, Kublai Khan was going to kill the envoy of the Great Song Dynasty. Prince Zhenjin asked Marshal Boyan to rush back to Baghdad to help solve the matter.

The Mongols had great respect for the emissaries, especially the Mongol emissaries. On the grounds that the Mongol envoys were humiliated, they did a lot of things to destroy the country and slaughter the city. Because of this, Mongolia also ensured the safety of the opponent's envoys, even those from the hostile side. It's really hard to find a force that is not hostile to Mongolia. The Great Khan suddenly wanted to kill the Great Song Envoy, and such a thing seemed very abnormal.

Once back in Baghdad, Boyan had to stay in Baghdad. After judging it, the marshal felt that it was better for him to stay in Jerusalem. Rushing back to get involved in bad things will often kill oneself.

Unbeknownst to the Song envoys, there was such a change outside the prison, and they themselves were furious at the reaction of the Mongols, or the Mongol Khan Kublai Khan. Baghdad sent an envoy to invite the Great Song envoy to Baghdad, and this was a very formal meeting, and it was quite good after the meeting. When the Great Song Dynasty made a request, Kublai Khan's face changed when he ascended. He sarcastically said, I cut off the skull with my ability, why can't I use it as I want.

After hearing this, the envoy of the Great Song Dynasty was also angry and could not be contained, so he told Kublai Khan very implicitly. What's the point if everyone is so ruthless as to dig graves? When Kublai Khan heard this, he was furious and ordered the Great Song envoy to be thrown into prison.

During these days in prison, the envoys of the Great Song Dynasty also analyzed what was going on. The result of the analysis is probably that Kublai Khan was worried that the Great Song Dynasty would send troops north to conquer Holin. Many Mongol emperors were buried in this place. Among them, Genghis Khan's tomb is probably the most difficult to pinpoint. In addition, the graves of Wokotai, Guiyou, and Meng Ge are much easier to find. Especially the tomb of Kublai Khan's elder brother Möngke.

The Mongols dug up Song Lizong's grave and cut off Song Lizong's head. When the Great Song Dynasty captured Helin, it was natural that it could be concocted in this way. It can be seen that Kublai Khan was very difficult to accept such an imagination. Thousands of miles away, the messenger did not know how he could be rescued. Or is that how your life is here?

What the envoy didn't know was that more than a month ago, there was indeed a cavalry of the Song army that set off in the direction of Helin. They didn't want to capture Helin at once, the order of the Yanyun Military Region was for them to conduct power reconnaissance. Strike at the tribes along the way, determine the route of the march. Prepare for the battle that follows.

When receiving the envoys of the Great Song Dynasty, Kublai Khan got the news. Listening to the envoy's threatening words, Kublai Khan naturally linked the two things. It is believed that the envoys of the Great Song Dynasty were using the tombs of Kublai Khan's ancestors to carry out threats. Whether it is tolerable or unbearable, Kublai Khan thinks that he seems to have no other way to choose except to put these bold and reckless envoys to prison.

Among them, the one who wants to coordinate in the middle the most is the prince Zhenjin. Of course, the prince will not have a good impression of Da Song, but this does not mean that he has to do this. Zhenjin still hopes to maintain the dignity of Mongolia.
