In the afternoon of the next day, a team of several hundred Menghan finally marched to the outskirts of Helin City.

At this time, the two teams walked side by side, and the face of Zawen of Nawara was arrogant, looking at the wall of Helin not far ahead, and he consciously had reached his own boundary.

Bao Yuanqian rode on top of the Jedi, watching from a distance that there were already more than 100 people standing and waiting outside Lin Nan City, and from a distance, it seemed that these horses were very rarely present, and almost all of them looked like officials in round-necked robes.

He saw it in his eyes, and his heart was strange, although the movement of Mahamu when Sarenya returned was not said to be completely absent, it was also calm. It is completely different from the army that he imagined to cover the sky and the sun.

These people were not hostile, and even had a warm face. He had thought about facing a situation of thousands of troops, but he didn't expect to face a team of Warat officials who were lightly armed and simple.

As they approached slowly, the civil servant slapped his horse and whispered to the leader of the procession.

Bao Yuanqian was only a few dozen steps away from the man, and when he looked closely, he saw that this person was wearing a cymbal crown and a chain of jewels. Dressed in a round-necked purple robe, covered with tulle, he was dressed quite luxuriously.

This person is about fifty or sixty, born elegant and capable, although he is old, but he does not see the slightest old-fashioned, his complexion is yellowish, and two delicately groomed white mustaches hang on his face quite gently.

Bao Yuanqian frowned and said in his heart, this can't be Mahamu, right? But although that person was born rich and noble, if it is said that it is the male lord Mahamu who swept the grassland, it seems that he has a little less courage, and it will not be Dehuan, who should now be in the prime of his twenties.

After the civil official finished the report, he beat the horse and stood aside, and the man at the head rode his horse and said to the envoys of the Ming army: "Your envoy has worked hard all the way, and the envoy of the Celestial Empire has made a special trip to Helin, which is really full of glory." ”

Bao Yuanqian heard him speak Mongolian, so he consciously beat his horse out of the team, stood in front of him and said: "Bao Yuanqian, the special envoy of the Ming Suzhou Guard, went to the appointment of Master Mahamu to come to Helin, dare to ask Your Excellency's surname?" ”

The man looked at Bao Yuanqian, who rode out on horseback, he didn't notice this person in the team, but now standing a few steps in front of him, he was naturally real.

He didn't answer Bao Yuanqian in a hurry, but looked at Bao Yuanqian back and forth, as if he had a familiar feeling, and he frowned and made a puzzled voice.

Bao Yuanqian was stared at by him unhappily, could it be that you are a crooked person? Immediately, he said in a deep voice: "Dare to ask Your Excellency's surname?" ”

Only then did the man retract his doubtful gaze and said, "I am the privy deputy envoy under the command of Taishi Mahamu, Harazhang!" ”

As soon as Ha Razhang's words fell, it was Bao Yuanqian's turn to look this person up and down.

Bao Yuanqian, who had just thought that others were "bent", squinted his eyes at this time and looked at Harazhang carefully, and he was slightly surprised by Harazhang's official position, the privy deputy envoy.

I remember that when she was in Suzhou, Sa Renya asked her to go back to the grassland with her, saying that she asked Kun Timur to make her a privy deputy envoy. This privy council is the body in charge of the Northern Yuan soldiers, and the envoy has always been concurrently served by the crown prince of the Northern Yuan, and now the deputy envoy has become the only envoy, which shows that this Hara Zhang is almost Mahamu's right-hand man.

Now Mahamu personally sent this person here, but did not send a soldier to accompany him, which also shows Mahamu's attitude, loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and the reception of the Ming envoy is like governing a big country and cooking a small fresh, what a hundred people can do, why do you need thousands of troops and horses to pretend and make a big move?

Xindao still underestimated Ma Hamu, and thought that he would deal with any soldiers and horses, but he didn't expect others to accept your trick at all, so as not to respond to all changes.

And then what surprised Bao Yuanqian was the name Harazhang.

Hara Zhang, if he remembers correctly, is the son of the prime minister of the Yuan Dynasty.

At that time, the eldest son of Emperor Yuan Shun, Yuan Zhaozong Aiyu Zhili Dala was fostered in Toto's home, and grew up with this Hara Zhang, and they were like siblings.

In that year, Totokh was killed and killed, Harazhang was exiled, and after the death of Emperor Shun, Yuan Zhaozong succeeded to the throne and rehabilitated Zhaoxue for Totokh, and promoted Harazhang.

Later, he was defeated by Lan Yu in the Battle of Yuerhai, and all his nephews and brothers were revealed, but he was the only one who still escaped from Saibei and refused to return.

Bao Yuanqian was puzzled in his heart, this Hara Zhang should be loyal to the Golden Family, and after growing up with Zhaozong, he will follow Yizong, and the two dynasties will be unswerving.

But.... Why did he become Mahamu's henchman? This is very different from what I know about Harazhang.

Thinking of the way he looked at himself just now... Always feel weird, recognized? Even if they used to know each other, their faces have changed over the years, and it is almost impossible to know each other at a glance.

"You, your name is Bao Yuanqian, right?" Harazhang asked, pacing.

Bao Yuanqian nodded, "Yes, dare to ask where your master is, why..."

Hara Zhang smiled and interrupted: "Many envoys from Helin have come, and my master is full of clothes and food, so I really don't have time to come and I hope your envoys will forgive me." ”

Bao Yuanqian listened, and thought in his heart that it seemed that the crazy old man said well, and Mahamu didn't want to make a big deal when he came, so he only sent a hundred people to come, and now the situation with Lin is complicated, and his own exerciser is just a drop in the ocean in the team of countless envoys, and it is not worthy of Mahamu's attention.

The most important thing is that Maha Mu is the one who coordinates the overall situation and is the king and hegemon. Although Sarenya is important, it is only for his son Tuhuan, and he is probably not an important person for a politician like Mahamu.

In fact, he still wanted to ask about Tuhuan, but he didn't know how to open his mouth when the words came to his lips, after all, Sarenya came, and Tuhuan greeted him in the future, which was a bit unexpected.

Bao Yuanqian dialed his horse and looked at the few people in Zhang Shanduan in the rear, nodded to indicate that it was correct, and Zhang Shanduan arranged for people to prepare to enter the city in turn.

As soon as he raised his horsewhip, he said, "Your envoy, come with me, this is not the place to speak." ”

As he spoke, he didn't look at Bao Yuanqian, nor at the team behind him, but landed on the boundless grassland in the distance, not knowing what he was watching.

Bao Yuanqian noticed that there was some worrying eagerness in his words, but he didn't know what he was trying to do, and he couldn't help but feel a little uncertain.

The group was just about to enter the city with Harazhang, and the uneasy thought in Bao Yuanqian's heart flashed, and he hurriedly waved his hand to stop the team, and he turned over and dismounted and fell on the grass.

With his ears close to the grass, he got up proudly after a few breaths, turned over and got on his horse and shouted in a deep voice: "Be careful of deceit! It seems that there is an iron horse coming!! ”

Before he finished speaking, he had already drawn out the long knife, and before he could make a sound, he already felt a trace of coldness coming from his neck, and he looked stiffly, only to see that Bao Yuanqian's long knife was already clamped on his neck!

He Lin Nanmen suddenly creaked loudly, closed it again, and was shocked Zhang Shanduan pulled out his sword and said sharply: "Clamp that princess of Beiyuan in it, don't let these Warat people succeed!" ”

The Ming army drew their swords one after another to take out their shields, and they tacitly cooperated with each other to raise their crossbows, although the sparrows were small and gallant, they formed an iron bucket array for a while, cautiously looking at the countless black shadows that emerged in the distance of the grassland.

The accompanying officials were panicked, and they wanted to enter the city, but they were stopped by the thick gates, and the people in the city did not care about them.

Harazhang didn't dare to move, but glared at Bao Yuanqian and said, "What do you mean!?" ”

Bao Yuanqian said coldly: "Dare to play tricks with me, beware of the young master pulling you, a first-class privy envoy, to accompany the funeral!" ”

Harazhang sighed and said depressedly: "If I want to capture you, why should I risk my life and fall under your sword!?" ”

Bao Yuanqian heard this, and let out a strange cry in his heart, looking at the Warat officials who were out of the city around him, they looked at a loss and ignorance, as if they didn't know about it.

The iron horses came from the ground, but they were already surrounded from three directions, and they rode lightly and carved bows, as if there were thousands of people, trampling wildly with four hooves, and raising dust all over the sky.

Harazhang looked at it and frowned for a long time before saying, "Hey... Sure enough, it was him! ”

"Who?"

"The son of the Taishi, Rose Tuohuan!"
