Chapter 165: A Thousand Miles
Three hundred Tianzi guards accompanied him, two hundred soldiers opened the road in front, a carriage made of pine wood, paved with tiger skin, and a group of people marched towards the north.
"You'll sleep after this round." Gu Mingchao was single-minded, and he didn't forget to stare at the brazier next to him when he played chess.
Xie Song bowed his head, "Don't sleep."
Gu Mingchao pinched the chess pieces and refused to fall, "Are you trying to anger me?"
Xie Songzhao sighed and took out a letter from the secret compartment under the chessboard, "Someone asked me to meet in front, what should I do if I fall asleep?"
The corner of the letterhead was a willow-like flower, and Xie Songzhao put the letter in front of him, "Look. It's not worth not sleeping?"
Gu Mingchao took out the letter, "Na Ritai...... At this time, if you dare to set foot on the boundary of the Great Zhou to block you, I have to look up to her by two points."
The carriage stopped suddenly, and the voice came in steadily, "It's too cold, I want to invite Master Hou to have a glass of wine." z.br>
Gu Mingchao put on a big coat for him, opened the carriage door, and lined up the people and horses disguised as a caravan in front of him, and the girl led by him was dressed in Han clothes.
Xie Song bowed his head, "Girl, the road is far away, and you have made a mistake when you drink, so let's invite you to have a cup of tea."
Naritai came over with a scimitar, and Gu Mingchao drew his sword to stop her, "Girl, it's better to put down your sword and gun if it's such an elegant thing as drinking tea."
Naritai looked at Xie Songzhao and didn't say anything to stop him, took a step back, and threw the scimitar back.
Gu Mingchao withdrew his knife, "Please."
Naritai took a sip of tea and looked at Xie Songzhao, "It's better to see than to hear, Master Hou is actually a weak scholar."
Xie Songzhao smiled, "The girl came all the way, presumably because she didn't want to be close?"
Naritai played with the knife at his fingertips and looked at Gu Ming provocatively, "My people need food, and my father needs a wider land. I am the Mongolian Abawan, and this is my mission."
Xie Songzhao poured her tea unhurriedly, "Girl, peace can be obtained for a short time, but food and land need a strong country to protect. And is there only one way in this world that can be done by making friends?"
Naritai smiled and put her hand on the table, "There are thousands of roads in the world, but there is only one shortcut. If I knew any other way, I wouldn't be sitting here talking to you right now."
Xie Songzhao put down the teacup, "This world and this era are already limiting a woman's life, you are rare, a person who has the ability to break free from this shackle, so why enter the back house of the Quartet?"
"I believe that if you have the ability, you can achieve something anywhere." Naritai's ambition is like a fire in winter, and the wind cannot be extinguished.
Xie Songzhao said calmly, "For example? After making peace, do you think you can control my Houfu, or will you disturb the situation in my Chaoyan Capital?"
Naritai looked him in the eye, "Master Hou, don't underestimate me."
Xie Songzhao pointed to the soldiers outside the window and said, "I have a thousand soldiers in the Standing Mansion, and once you step into my Waiting Mansion, you will be isolated from the world. The walls of the courtyard will imprison you for the rest of your life."
Naritai asked rhetorically, "How can you be sure that I will marry you?"
Xie Songzhao held the jade buckle on his wrist, "Girl, if you come to make peace, you can guarantee that you will definitely marry into my Yongzhao Marquis Mansion."
Naritai pursed her lips and said nothing, Xie Songzhao added tea to her, "Do you think that in Yandu, who will be your helper?"
The knife in Naritai's hand turned slower and slower, "The human heart is unpredictable."
Xie Song looked at her, "Please forgive me, it's true that people's hearts are unpredictable, but among the Yan Capital, who else dares to reach out to my mansion now? Ming Dynasty, tell this Venerable Abba how to deal with Zhiya."
Gu Mingchao touched Xie Songzhao's playful eyes, "Die."
Na Ritai stared at Gu Mingchao, "Master Xie, this doesn't look like a thug."
"He is the master of Houfu, my apprentice, Gu Mingchao." Xie Song took the soup woman and added leisurely, "Even if you have helpers, I believe that he can break them one by one."
Naritai's brown eyes stared at him, pondering the truth of his words. Naritai
Tickling the time, "My father and brothers are very fond of you."
Xie Song bowed his head, "Presumably, the news that I want to add my prince to His Majesty has spread all over the world, and Mongolia wants a noble descendant of the Han people."
"Yes, they say, if a child is born, he will be a duke from birth, and he will have access to the supreme power of the country." Naritai said with some scoff.
Xie Songzhao shook his head, "No, you don't have a chance to give birth to a child. I will not hand it over to you." Xie Songzhao leaned forward slightly, "But we can cooperate, but not in a friendly way. And the princess has a thin life, the courtyard wall of the square is a place where the woman wants to escape for the rest of her life, the girl is used to seeing the scenery of the grassland, why choose a cage?"
Naritai put away the knife in her fingertips, "How do you cooperate? I will not betray my country."
Xie Songzhao laughed, "No, as far as I know, Mongolia has always maintained mutual market contacts with our DPRK, and we can open the mutual market even more......
"Not enough, Da Zhou's existence already threatens us." Naritai flexed her legs.
Gu Mingchao held the hilt of the knife and stared at her back, Xie Songzhao didn't give an inch, "Naritai, what is going on inside Mongolia now, I think you know better than me, we are still willing to open the mutual market to trade with you now, it is already great sincerity. You don't have a choice."
Naritai shook her head, "Xie Songzhao, your sword has been aimed at our neighbors, and the next one is us, and Mongolia will not sit idly by."
"Then I have to ask Aba to think clearly, in the middle of winter, if the Great Zhou closes the mutual market, will the Mongolian iron cavalry still have such confidence?" Xie Songzhao dropped a white piece.
Naritai gritted her teeth, "You don't have the sincerity to cooperate."
Xie Song calmly fished over the black chess pieces, "No, it's too much you want."
Naritai raised the dagger and was about to smash it down, Gu Mingchao's knife was already across her neck, Gu Mingchao said, "Think twice before acting."
Xie Songzhao changed his tone, "Then why don't you tell me about it, what is the sincerity that Mongolia wants?"
Naritai said, "Land of grain."
Xie Songzhao sneered, "I respect you as a hero, and I want you to take the Mongolian mutual market into your pocket, but I didn't expect Your Excellency to be so short-sighted." The contempt in Xie Songzhao's eyes pierced Naritai's eyes, "Food and land are the foundation of the country, and I have never given up my hand when the Great Zhou was weak, let alone when the country is strong now."
Naritai shook her head, "It won't do me any good to take the mutual market for my own use."
Xie Song watched the white chess meandering, "The advantage is that it expands the mutual market and brings grain to Mongolia through mutual benefit. But in the matter of land, let's ask the Mongolian iron horsemen to come out."
Naritai looked at him deeply and was about to leave, but Gu Mingchao pressed the knife close to her, "He didn't say to let you leave."
Naritai glared at him, "Narrow carriage, I'm afraid that raising my hand will let Master Hou kill Huangquan." Does Master Hou really want this?"
Xie Song sipped tea unconcernedly, "Ming Dynasty, I won't move forward this time, you have to be my shield."
"Got it." Gu Mingchao bowed down and stretched out his hand to push the coffee table in front of Xie Songzhao, blocking himself in front of him, Naritai pinched the knife on his fingertips and was about to throw it out, Gu Mingchao stabbed her twice, and the knife on his fingertips slid to the ground, "I'm sorry, I'm new, you may have to suffer a little sin."
Xie Songzhao looked up at him skillfully when he heard this, and he touched his pulse with some shock, and destroyed this good game of chess for a while.
"Master Hou, the little general is here." Guihong knocked on the door.
"Got it, call him over." Xie Songzhao pulled down his sleeves and retracted his hand.
"Brother." Xie Haonan looked at the scene behind the door and was shocked for a moment, "Is my brother injured?"
Xie Songzhao shook his head, "No, please come up and see you."
Naritai turned his head to look at the hands being cut behind his back under the carriage, and pressed his brother who was kneeling on the ground and exclaimed, "Brother!"
"Butegoch, the method I used on Dongzhou does not apply to my Great Zhou. If you want to get something out of it, you have to see if you have the ability to do it." Xie Songzhao's eyelids drooped and stared at them, "I won't kill you today, I'm paying it back for the ancestors."
The grace of Lingtang not to kill back then, please don't step into the border of our dynasty at will in the future."
The government soldiers came up and dragged Naritai down, and escorted him away with Butegoch.
Xie Songzhao exhaled a white breath, "Kill all the soldiers they brought on the spot. Shut the door."
Xie Haonan looked at Gu Mingchao, held back his desire to pull Xie Songzhao's hand, and sat aside in a regular manner, "Brother, all the matters in Northern Xinjiang have been prepared, and all the generals are looking forward to it......
Xie Songzhao perfunctory him, "Hmm...... You, you go to the front first, I, I'm sleepy."
Xie Haonan nodded obediently, "Okay, you have a good rest." When he went down, he glanced at Gu Mingchao, who was slowly wiping the knife.
Xie Song's eyelids jumped as he watched him clean up the mess, and Gu Mingchao looked up and saw that he hadn't slept, "Aren't you sleepy?"
Xie Songzhao clenched his hands into fists, put them to his lips and coughed dryly twice, "No, I was just sleepy, and now I don't have it."
Gu Mingchao approached him and stared into his eyes, "You...... Did you hide from me what you did?"
Xie Songzhao waved his hand again and again, "No, no. I just feel a little tired, you learned acupuncture, give me two needles."
Gu Mingchao pierced the needles back into the arrow sleeve one by one, "Xie Songzhao, when will you be able to speak the truth?" Do you need to detour to talk to me? You just asked me if I knew your condition?"
Xie Songzhao sighed, "I thought I was hiding it from you, but I didn't expect you to hide it from me."
Gu Mingchao tied the big gun tightly for him, "This sentence should be what I said, okay, you can sleep."
Xie Songzhao's throat was tight, and he didn't dare to ask Gu Mingchao how he was learning.
Gu Mingchao looked at his drooping eyelashes and sighed secretly, this is like the smoke and rain in the south of the Yangtze River, Emperor Jiayou can admit his mistake.
When the carriage stopped again, it had already arrived at Jiaoxue Pass, Cao Qingyun came out wearing a full suit of armor, "General Xie, where is Master Hou?"
Xie Haonan arched his hand and was about to speak, when Xie Songzhao's voice came from afar, "Brother Cao, I haven't seen you for a long time, how is my sister-in-law lately?"
Cao Qingyun also had a smile on her face, "She went to Nanjun and wrote to me to say that she is getting better, what about you?" I heard you've been catching a cold lately, are you feeling better?"
Xie Songzhao jumped out of the carriage and stepped on the snow and walked over, "It's much better, I brought you good wine."
"Oops, then I'll take it, hahahaha." Cao Qingyun pulled him away and said in a low voice: "General Chi, they all want to see you, you remember to write another letter to them when you go back, you came to Northern Xinjiang, and he is the one who opposes you the most."
Xie Song bowed his head, "Okay, thank you Brother Cao for reminding me."
Cao Qingyun lowered his voice a little lower, "Pei Qin has a relationship with Yuezhi's fine work."
