The north wind swept the white grass and folded, and the snow flew in August.

A convoy of thousands of horses galloped across the wilderness under thick dark clouds, their hooves clattering on the solid frozen ground. Cold frost drifted down from the sky, and Bao Yuanqian's bearded face was also covered with frost.

They crossed the Xuqu River, which ran north for several days, and was already very close to the Britti region.

After arriving in the Burigati area, to the east is the Haranahai Yating, which is the Jurchen settlement in the East China Sea and the Yating of the King of Qi. Further north is the southern part of Lake Baikal, and then a few days north along the lake will lead to the location of the Kerebu.

For several days, I slept in the open and suffered from wind and frost. Fearing that Mahamu might be approaching, they kept the time they could camp for as little as possible, and spent almost eight or nine hours of the day on the road out of twelve.

Now that it was close to Brita, both the Jurchens and the Kereh breathed a sigh of relief, and they chose a shallow hill area on higher ground to set up camp, and began to work hard to make a fire against the fierce north wind, and for the first time in so many days, they dared to make a fire after camping.

Where have Bao Yuanqian and his entourage experienced such a cold northland, they felt unusually cold in Suzhou Wei in the past, but they didn't expect that there would be even more on the frozen plateau of Siberia.

He had long since wrapped himself in a thick cashmere felt robe, put on a heavy felt hat, and with his raunchy beard, he looked a little like the old herdsman of Nakexili.

It was already the middle of the night after setting up camp, listening to the wolf howls all around, standing on the shallow hill outside the camp and looking at the distance to the east, the heart said that it should be the direction of Sakhalin Island in the later generations, and it is also where the Nuer Gandu Division of the Ming Dynasty is located today.

He thought back that he had set out from Suzhou Wei, traveled thousands of miles and now came here, although he had all the things he wanted, he had a lot of doubts about his future path, and he didn't know if he could get to that point.

Although his body is the bloodline of the Golden Family, and he is the queen of Emperor Tianyuan, there is almost no place for him to stand in the north. The name of no strength, although it is loud, can only become a tool of careerists.

"You're not going to camp and waiting here to feed the wolves?"

Although the north wind was blowing all around, he still heard a person coming from behind and said coldly.

Bao Yuanqian turned his head to look, but saw that it was Yelu Hongying coming. Yelu Hongying had not spoken much since she rescued her that day, and now she was not wearing armor, but came in a plain velvet robe with a high black ponytail. She is already tall, she is a little less cold, but a little more wild.

"You're not afraid of wolves, I'll be afraid?"

"Hmph, are the people of the Ming Kingdom so hard-mouthed?" Yelu Hongying walked to his side and looked into the distance with his eyes, "I won't be embarrassed about the grace of rescue, I, Yelu Hongying, don't like to owe favors, if it is useful in the future, it doesn't hurt to talk about it."

Bao Yuanqian listened to it funny, is my heart hard or you have a hard mouth? couldn't help but smile lightly: "Princess Qi doesn't need it, the soldier is Sarenya's has nothing to do with me, and there is no debt between you and me."

Seeing that he was silent, Yelu Hongying was a little angry, and snorted heavily but angered the wound.

She was originally a strong woman, and she never let go of ordinary arrow wounds, but the place where the arrow was hit that day was burning and painful for several days, and the wound was difficult to scab over for a long time, and the most fatal thing was that she had a slight fever today.

She felt the wound hurt suddenly, she was a little dizzy, her eyebrows tightened, and she reached out to cover the wound of her left arm, the pain was unbearable, and she couldn't help but moan softly.

Bao Yuanqian saw that she was unsteady on her feet and her left arm was injured, her cheeks and forehead were red, so he grabbed her and reached out to put it on her forehead.

"Feverish?"

"What does it have to do with you?"

Bao Yuanqian shook his head helplessly, and took out a bottle of gold sore medicine porcelain bottle from his arms, which was given by the black-robed immortal heaven, and now there are still some more.

"Don't bite Lu Dongbin, you don't know the hearts of good people." Bao Yuanqian handed it to her, pointed to her left arm and said, "Your wound is infected by bacteria, and you can't resist it. If you don't leave it alone, you'll have a high fever in a few days, and you'll be unconscious and talking nonsense."

"Bacteria?"

Bao Yuanqian reluctantly explained: "Something similar to the wind evil, taking advantage of the opening of your wound and entering directly into your body. It's similar to the theory that wind and cold cause disease." He said that he would put the porcelain bottle into the red tassel of Jeru.

He didn't know how to explain the concept of germs and viruses to Yelu Hongying for a while, so he had to use wind evil, evil and other things to make her roughly understand the reason. The Warat people have always liked to stain the arrows with fecal juice and other substances, and it is very likely that the injury of Yelu Hongying was infected with bacteria to cause fever. Bao Butong had already been hit by arrows in both legs, so he was worried about infection, but after using the black-robed man's gold sore medicine, he was fine, and it must have had a miraculous effect.

"Does it work?"

"Don't worry, I won't kill you."

"You!"

Seeing that he looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, Yelu Hongying untied his collar to reveal his smooth shoulders and left arm, and began to pour gold sore medicine on the purulent wound. Bao Yuanqian looked at the purulent and black arrow and said sadly, his guess was good, it was no different from a bacterial infection.

However, this Yelu Hongying is not shy about it, maybe she has lived in a mixed environment of Mongolia and Jurchen since she was a child, and she doesn't care about trivial things such as leaking half of her shoulder, and she doesn't think that Bao Yuanqian is offended to watch from the sidelines.

However, Bao Yuanqian is a modern person who is more open, and it doesn't matter if you don't care about a woman, Bao Ye doesn't matter, anyway, it's not for nothing that those girls in later generations will show more.

"You must be a blood relative to that Benjamli, right? After Emperor Tianyuan, what are your plans in the future?" Yelu asked, closing her collar.

Bao Yuanqian knew that she would not come without incident, and when he saw her cut to the chase, he said, "What can I do? and how many days are in the Creebrang."

"Oh? You are not like such a person, who concealed his identity and deceived the two parts of Warat, and also turned his hand in the shadow of Naharazhang. Such a careerist says that he lives a free life, do you believe me or not?" She spoke a little aggressively, after all, they failed to capture Mahamu, and half of the responsibility here was still Bao Yuanqian's. Yelu Hongying's eyes rolled, staring at the dishonest Bao Yuanqian and said, "And you seem to have gotten a good thing?"

"If the princess has something to say, just say it, don't beat around the bush, just talk quickly."

Bao Yuanqian didn't answer directly, he knew that there was no distinction between Sa Renya and Yelu Hongying, and this matter was not a hidden matter.

Yelu Hongying smiled, "Don't worry, I'm not interested in that thing, but I'm interested in you."

Bao Yuanqian smiled faintly, he naturally knew that Yelu Hongying's so-called interest would not be anything like love, so he naturally had other intentions.

Sure enough, Yelu Hongying continued, "Since you are the son of Tian Yuan, you should inherit the Great Command, and it may be a pity to stay in the Keree Division. If you go to the Yating Court with my father and the king, we will support you to ascend the throne and call on the tribes of the forest and the Jurchens to join forces with the Turks in the west to attack Mahamu."

"Is it the meaning of the King of Qi or the meaning of the princess?" Bao Yuanqian said quietly.

Yelu Hongying shook her head and said, "You don't need to care about this, you just need to know that once you ascend to the throne of Khan, countless people in the forest will be attached with a wave of your hand, and after you have enough soldiers, you can dominate the north of the country by defeating the Rus tribe in one fell swoop, and then you will be the first generation of Tianjiao in the next generation."

Bao Yuanqian listened to these seductive words, and said unmoved: "Oh... Is it the reincarnation of Tianjiao or the dedication of Emperor Liu Xie?"

"What do you mean?!"

Bao Yuanqian turned around and looked at Yelu Hongying and said: "I understand the kindness of the King of Qi and the princess, but I don't want to be controlled by others in my life, I would rather be a phoenix than a phoenix, and I may have no worries about food and clothing when I go to the Yating, but I am like a canary in a cage, and I have no freedom in my life."

He knew very well that Yelu Hongying's words, including her coming to find him, might all mean wide, but how could he not know that he was helpless and ran to the Haranahai court to sweat, that is, someone else had to bow his head under the eaves.

Although Kuo Chu is the king of the Great Yuan Qi, he is not of the blood of the Golden Family, and has no legal orthodoxy, so he has to rely on military conquest to control the tribes and Jurchens in the forest over the years. He just wanted to use his legitimate orthodoxy to strengthen his own strength, and use the political capital of his golden family to unify the Jurchen tribe of the East China Sea.

At that time, once he gets his wish, even if he is destroyed, he will follow

has no half-dime relationship, and it will not be him Bao Yuanqian, but Kuo Yuanqian, who will become the reincarnation of Tianjiao.

If he becomes a puppet like Benjamin, if there is no Timurid Empire soldiers and horses as the backing, then Benjamin will not dare to return to Helin in vain, it is precisely because he wants to get rid of the puppet status of Maham through a coup d'état, which will take risks with Harazhang.

And the reason why Kuang gave up Benjamin and wooed himself is also a great factor related to the Timurid Empire, Mahamu is not stupid, this Kuang is not stupid, and he will not let go of the people who have nothing to stand up, and set up a Benjamin with the background of the Timurid Empire.

Yelu Hongyingdai frowned and said, "Why are you an elm head, do you think that when you go to the Kerebu Department, you will be able to stay with Ah Yue? Why don't you think about how if you and my father and the king work together to unify the Jurchen tribe and increase their strength, how can the Kereh tribe not be attached to it at that time? I know that you and Ah Yue are in love, and when that time comes, won't you and her be together openly?"

Bao Yuanqian was amused, this Yelu Hongying saw that he couldn't move and began to move out of his loved ones. It is true that he would like to stay with Sarenya for a long time, but he is not like a puppet. What he needs is to keep his word and stay with him without question. He needs his own power, not a puppet.

"King Qi may have mistaken me Bao Yuanqian, although I have nothing now, who can conclude that the unknown person today will not be famous in the future?" Bao Yuanqian laughed and said, "The princess's sentence about duckweed wandering is very good, but I also want to give the princess a word back."

"Say."

「***？ When you encounter a storm, you will turn into a dragon!" Before Bao Yuanqian's voice fell, he had already left, leaving the empty aftermath that made Yelu Hongying stunned in the distance.

........

"Brother, what did the Jurchen girls tell you?"

As soon as Bao Yuanqian returned to the tent, he saw Bao Wei coming over with Lu and Gao, and even Sa Renya looked at him with big eyes and blinking.

Bao Yuanqian said in his heart that these people were afraid that they had just secretly looked at themselves, and it was true that the Ming Dynasty version of eavesdropping. He roughly relayed the meaning of Yelu Hongying, and then said his answer.

"Well said, brother!"

"Exactly, a good sentence would rather be a phoenix than a phoenix, how can a good man be trapped by people when he is determined to be in the four seas!" Lu Gangfeng nodded.

Gao Shouzheng said: "Now that we have the seal, we are responding to the sentence of the big bag."

Bao Yuanqian suddenly remembered something and said, "What about Ben Ya Li?"

Gao Shouzheng said disdainfully: "I was hungry for two meals, so I asked the Zhao brothers to give him a meal, this guy completely ignores the identity of the Great Khan, and the dog is like a dog, hey!"

Lu Gangfeng was puzzled: "Bao Zongqi, it stands to reason that this Ben Ya Li is so similar to your mold and harmful to your heart, according to me, more is better than less, and he made us worry about it with one knife." lest the impostor have a bad stomach and bite us for a long time."

Bao Butong nodded yes, and they didn't understand why Bao Yuanqian wanted to keep Benjamin and wait for him to eat and drink.

Bao Yuanqian said: "You only know one thing, but you don't know the other. If I don't kill him, I will naturally have a place to find him, and in the future, we will have to go south and north, and it will be very dangerous for us to go south and north, and this Benjamin looks very similar to me, but he can be my shadow."

"Shadow!?"

Bao Yuanqian nodded and said, "Yes, I am a mortal and not an immortal, so it is impossible for me to be in two places. When I was out of time, this Ben Ya Li came in handy, and the shadow... You can save my life at a critical moment."

Everyone slapped their foreheads, and then they understood Bao Yuanqian's intentions, and nodded their heads to feel reasonable.

Bao Yuanqian's stay in Benjamin is naturally of great use, he captured Benjamin a few days ago and interrogated a lot, especially for Benjamin, who should have been the second son of Libala (Elbok Khan), why did he become his own brother?

It turned out that after the Fishing Rebellion, Harazhang took Benyasli to Chagatai first, and a few years later, he also died of illness and death in Naenke Khan, who was also poisoned by Mahamu.

After Mahamu raised Elberk Khan, this Elbok Khan unexpectedly found and married Benya

The mother of the lost li, that is, the concubine of Emperor Tianyuan, is the concubine. This woman who was supposed to be her aunt became her concubine.

The woman asked to find her son who had been lost in Chagatai, and Elbak Khan found Harazhang and Benyasuri, but in this way, the generations were confused, and Benyasuri and Eryabak Khan, who were supposed to be peers, were criticized by the courtiers.

In desperation, Elbok Khan recognized Benjamin as his second son, as a way to hide his eyes. Unexpectedly, after Ugqi killed Horin and killed Erlebok Khan, Benjamin could only escape from the Timurid Empire with Harazhang again.

And the biological mother of Benjamin and Bao Yuanqian was also separated in the war and disappeared.

"Brother, do you want to pull out this guy's tongue, so that he doesn't have to talk nonsense." Bao Butong is bloodthirsty, eager to try.

Bao Yuanqian knocked him and said, "Is your brother and I dumb? Just deter him from talking nonsense, if you pull out his tongue, do you have to pull out Lao Tzu's tongue?"

Bao Butong stuck out his tongue, but saw that Sarenya's face was not very good.

Lu Gangfeng naturally noticed it, so he said, "It's dark this night, let's retire first." After saying that, he kicked the same foot of the cloth who was reluctant to leave, gave a look and withdrew from the camp.

Bao Yuanqian looked at Sa Renya, who had a bad face, and said, "What's wrong? Crescent moon."

Sarenya said secretly, "I just listened to the conversation between your brothers, and you don't seem to want to stay in the Kree Ministry for a long time?"

Bao Yuanqian hugged her and said, "Why don't I want to stay? If you can stay, I will definitely choose to stay with you."

His words were ambiguous, but he couldn't find a flaw.

"You didn't lie to me?" Sarenya looked up, her eyes as large as jewels blinking.

Bao Yuanqian raised his finger and said, "If I lie to my crescent moon, I will pierce ten thousand arrows.... Hmm."

Sarenya hurriedly covered Bao Yuanqian's mouth and said, "Bah, it's good to deceive, I don't care anyway." Why do you want to take your life as a child's play and swear poison on your lips."

Bao Yuanqian held her hand and said in a deep voice, "Crescent Yue'er, I only know what a woman with true temperament is when I meet you."

Sarenya smiled, and immediately thought of something: "Your brother Benjamin is too similar to you, I found out about the sunshot hunting ceremony, but I didn't expect it to be your brother."

Bao Yuanqian pinched her nose and said, "What, I'm afraid that the two of us will be mistaken? I'm telling you, you'll have to look for it, don't let that kid take advantage of you."

Sarenya wrinkled her nose and said, "Nonsense, the burn scar on your chest is unique. Besides, although Ben Yasri is similar to you, he is a real straw bale. Afraid of things and afraid of death, how can you have half of your energy without the strength of the chicken?"

"So he can only be my shadow, isn't he?" Bao Yuanqian heard the beauty praise himself like this, and his heart was furious.

Sarenya tiptoed to kiss Bao Yuanqian, and the two hugged each other and kissed more and more. For such a wild and enthusiastic woman, Bao Yuanqian was also a little overwhelmed, and finally he took the initiative to leave her lips and said, "This fire can't be stopped, be careful that the tent has ears!"

Bao Yuanqian said that naturally there are people in the tents on the left and right, a pair of Jiang Wei and Xiaolan, and what... Needless to say, wrap the cloth with that kid.

"Rest." Sarenya nodded with a smile, she also knew that although the warmth was strong at the moment, it was not a place to find pleasure.

.......................

Early the next morning, thousands of men had already set up camp, and the brigade had galloped north for a whole day and finally came to the Britti region, and it was time to separate from the Kereh.

"Brother's goodbye, yesterday's incident was a little girl's abruptness. But if I change my mind in the future, I can come to the Harana Sea Court to look for me, and I will be greeted by ten miles of color!"

Kuo Chu naturally knew that Yelu Hongying failed to win over yesterday, but after all, Bao Yuanqian was kind to him, and although he was a careerist, he was not a barbar.

Besides, now there are only more than 1,000 people left under his command, and the real ones are no match for the Kreh.

Bao Yuanqian said, "King Qi is polite, you are a loyal minister of the Great Yuan

Bao admired the matter, the princess, she is just frank and sincere, how can I care."

"Brother Bao, don't thank you, don't say goodbye!" The dark clouds protect the horses and salute.

"Treasure yourself!"

Bao Yuanqian looked at Yelu Hongying, who had a cold face but glanced at him from time to time, and couldn't help but smile and greeted: "Princess, remember to apply two compresses a day, and it will be cured in three days, goodbye!"

"Hmph, got it." Yelu Hongying rode away first, sighed softly, and galloped eastward with the men and horses.

Bao Yuanqian and his entourage bid farewell to Kuode, and then led the team to continue galloping northward, and finally saw the people of the Kerebu who came to greet them in the evening.

It's time to be in the Krebe!
