Chapter 40: A Poor Worm
Gu Xuan put down the reins in his hand, and as soon as his legs were raised, he easily turned over and dismounted, and the moment his feet stepped on the ground, he didn't make any sound, and he was so capable that he could see that the Rakshasa warriors who were confronting him on the other side were secretly vigilant, and they didn't dare to be contemptuous, only to see him holding one hand behind his back, and the other hand seemed to hang down next to his body casually, smiling, and striding forward.
His hair was meticulously combed and extremely clean, tied with an equally black crown, and all over his body, a whole set of solemn black, giving people an invisible sense of oppression.
The smile on his face was very kind, just as kind as when they first arrived in Huangsha County, but there was only a lack of enthusiasm that made people feel like a spring breeze, but there was more of an indescribable faint threat, the momentum of the superior person, rushing to the face, so that they couldn't help but hold their breath, he step by step, the pace was extremely slow, extremely steady, every time, as if stepping on the hearts of these people opposite.
"What agreement? Oh, you shouldn't know yet, just now, the new Khan of the Galokhanate has held a succession ceremony, and the new king has been born, well, don't guess, it's your brother, yes, it's the one whose legs were crushed by your hands, you see, or else it is said that this plan can't keep up with the changes. ”
Ashina suddenly heard the news, which was tantamount to a thunderbolt from the sky, almost stunning him directly, after reacting for two breaths, a furious and fierce blood red suddenly bloomed in his eyes, and the people next to him were so frightened that they quietly retreated.
It was not easy for him to kill Godani, and the throne of the Khan, which was already in his pocket, was stolen by someone like this?
Or did you just finish the succession ceremony?
What kind of bullshit does this mean?
Could it be that as soon as he walked on his front foot, the kid was on the back foot?
How could he accept this!
No, it should be said that no one can accept such an unreasonable result calmly!
Ashina was furious, and immediately yelled at Gu Xuan: "Fart! Bastard! Bastard! How dare he! That waste! How dare he go against me! No! It's you! You did it! I know! Damn! The people of the Liang Kingdom can't interfere in the internal affairs of the Khanate, this is the agreement we established before! It is an oath that is allied with blood and wine and supervised by the gods! How dare you break it! You bastard! The affairs of the Goshawk tribe are our own decisions! You have no right to do this! That waste, how dare he be the king of the Khan! Why is he! This throne of the Khan is mine! It is mine!"
"Ahh
He suddenly let out a roar of anger to the extreme, and he couldn't hold back any longer, out of anger, he threw out a whip violently, directly pumping the river in front of him and blowing up the unlucky guy next to him.
He was like a beast that had been snatched away by someone who had its prey to his mouth, and this anger from his heart was really difficult to quell, especially since he had put so much effort into it before, so much!
There are three serious wounds on his own body, and even now he has not been able to completely stop the bleeding, he has died so many subordinates, suffered so many crimes, and lowered his arrogant head several times in front of the lowly Liangguo people, and finally relied on deliberate planning to reverse an internal response, so that he could kill Godani with a sneak attack under the unexpected situation of everyone.
So much has been done, so much has been sacrificed, what is it for?
Isn't it just to be able to succeed to the throne of the Khan smoothly?
But now that he has succeeded, everything he has paid is about to come to fruition, and he has even begun to think of the bright future after he becomes the king of Khan, and the things he has to do, but now the loot in his hand has been taken away, how can he not be angry!
He wanted to kill all the bastards in front of him.
Ashina finally understood now that the other party's task of finding a sword was actually a disguise, and the purpose was nothing more than to transfer them out of these candidates who really had the ability and qualifications to inherit the throne of the Khan, and then push a waste to the throne so that it could be easily controlled by them.
If Godani and himself were still there, the other side would never dare to risk completely angering the entire khanate and making them a common enemy to forcibly let a waste inherit the throne of the khan.
Gu Xuan listened to Ashina yelling and venting the anger in his heart over there, as if he was watching a ridiculous animal performance.
He shrugged his shoulders slightly, showing a very innocent look, but the more he understated it like this, and it could even be said that he was cheap and obedient, the more angry Ashina felt, because he knew that he was sure that if it weren't for the demagoguery and support of the people of Liang Guo behind his back, his waste lame brother would never dare to be the king of Khan, absolutely!
A look at him before could scare him to death, but now he dares to come here to grab food?
Are you kidding!
Gu Xuan stretched out his hand, nodded with a smile and said: "Yes, I admit that you are right, according to our previous covenants and agreements, we have no control over the internal affairs of the Khanate, and we have no right to interfere, but don't forget, according to the other article we said at the beginning, the Gara Khanate is governed by a council composed of people from the six tribes and the Khan King!"
"Now that the previous Khan has died suddenly, whether it is for the sake of fairness or according to the rules, the next Khan should have been discussed by the parliament, and then voted on from among his descendants, and the result is that your brother has an extremely charismatic personality, and he was elected by more than half of the votes and became the second Khan of the Garo Khanate, and no one objected afterwards, in the way we agreed before, but no one broke the rules. ”
By the rules of the khanate?
Vote on the election by the internal council?
Ashna was stunned when he heard this, because he remembered that this was indeed a rule agreed upon by the parties after negotiations, and from this point of view, he had nothing to say, because it really did not break the bottom line.
But here's the problem, he knows, among the six major tribes that make up the Garo Khanate, the Viper Tribe, the Sand Fox Tribe, and the Squirrel Tribe, in secret, no, it should be said that on the surface, they have all taken refuge in the people of Liangguo and become the lackeys of the other party, and they have as many as eight members of the parliament, in other words, as long as the people of Liangguo want to, they can secretly manipulate the election behind their backs!
That's it, this damn bastard still has the face to talk to him about fairness?
Ashna raised his hand and shouted angrily: "I don't accept this result! I'm going to settle everything in our own way, I'm going to duel with him!"
The Rakshasas, or the Brahmana as they call themselves, is a nation that extremely admires force, and duel is an ancient and primitive tradition, because their whole life is spent in strife, and duel is actually a very common thing, and with duel, in a sense, it can solve all problems, and it is more convincing, but relatively speaking, after their level of development, they have rarely used barbaric duels to solve problems.
But this tradition, they have not completely abandoned, this is his last chance!
Ashina silently clenched his fists, his face showed murderous intent, he dared to guarantee that as long as there was a duel, that cripple could be killed directly with one punch!
But he didn't want to, Gu Xuan on the other side just shook his head gently, and then said with a helpless look on his face: " Oh, I'm sorry, Prince Ashna, I think you also know, the Garo Khanate, that's my ally of Da Liang, we Da Liang, for allies, that is always excellent, the business of allies, is our business, the troubles of allies, is our troubles, we are very willing to solve the troubles for our allies, and just now, the new King of the Garo Khanate found me and asked me to help them kill a traitor to the Khanate, you say, can I refuse a friend's request?"
A traitor to the Khanate?
After hearing this, Ashna was almost mad by the other party, he was not really stupid, looking at the other party like that, he didn't know that this was aimed at him at all.
"You shameless bastard! This is a slander! This is a slander against me! I, Ashna, am the sole heir to the throne of the Goshawk chieftain, and I, Ashna, am the sole heir to the throne of King Garahan! No one can change that!"
Lu Yi had been competently interpreting for Gu Xuan on both sides, and after saying this, he began to sympathize with Ashina.
Of course he understands that this is all his own prince venting the frustration and anger at his powerlessness caused by the choice he made before that went against his heart.
These emotions must be vented after all.
But this doesn't hurt, because if you want to deal with someone like Ashina, you have to praise him when you are inferior, and in the case of an absolute advantage, you have to fight first, hit the other party first, and when the other party is beaten to death, then throw the candy of reconciliation to him, repeat the process, and then you can completely control the other party.
It is very correct to suppress and suppress Ashna now, in short, in any case, it is still necessary for Ashna, the truly qualified successor, to go back to the county palace to calm the scene, otherwise there are many people in the goshawk tribe who will not be convinced, what is the second King of Ashina, that is, a puppet in name, in the end, it must be to let Ashna, who has prestige and ability, take power and sit in the Garokhan Kingdom for them.
Gu Xuan didn't bother to care about Ashina's anger, he just pretended to be thinking, held his hand, raised his head and said: " Let me think about who this traitor is, I heard that he is a big fat man, and he is vicious, and he likes to hold a long whip as a weapon in his hand, hey, Ashina, I listen to this description, it seems to be quite similar to you, let me think about what his crime is, well, killing his father and brother, the crime is unforgivable, tsk, you see, this kind of person, even the father who raised him and the brother who has blood ties can kill, what a mad beast this must be!"
