Hearing Kublai Khan's statement to withdraw from the table, Xiao Yao had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and before he could speak, he only heard Kublai Khan continue: "The national teacher and several heroes have been running around during this time, and they have tried their best to collect intelligence for the sake of the king's army going south, which is very hard. (Please search, or enter directly to see the latest chapter) Today, it is difficult to talk about thin wine to express the king's intentions, but it is also a snub to you. So for now, please go back to the camp for the time being, have a good rest, and in the evening the king himself will set up a banquet, and then entertain the national teacher and the three heroes. "The words are not angry and self-threatening, although it is meant to make amends, but when it is spoken, it becomes an irresistible command.

When Xiao Yao heard this, although he understood Kublai Khan's meaning very well, he still quickly stood up and made a gesture to say goodbye to King Jinlun and others, but Kublai Khan grabbed his sleeve and gently pulled it back. King Jinlun and others had guessed that Kublai Khan's sudden withdrawal must be related to Xiao Yao, and when they saw the small actions between the two, they were even more convinced, although they were very unhappy and jealous in their hearts, but they were also helpless, and after each of them gave a salute, they withdrew from the camp. Suddenly, there was no one in the huge king's tent except for a few steppe guards and a few Han slaves of Kublai Khan. Kublai Khan waved his hand and said, "All of you should all stand down and guard the outside of the tent." When this king talks to Xiao Yingying, no one is allowed to approach, and there is no forgiveness for violators. ”

The soldiers and slaves were ordered to go out and guard the four corners of the tent. Seeing that everyone was retreating, in order to completely dispel the suspicions in Kublai Khan's heart, Xiao Yao stood up from the chair, retreated to Kublai Khan, bowed down and said: "The villain's name is Xiao Yao, he has no merit or merit, and he will never dare to call the name of the hero in vain, His Royal Highness the prince still calls the villain's name." The villain did not dare to sit side by side with His Highness, if His Highness had any orders, the villain should know everything and say everything. ”

Kublai Khan smiled slightly, but did not insist. After a deep groan, he said straight to the point: "Xiao Yao, there is indeed a big matter right now, and I need to listen to your opinion. ”

Xiao Yao just looked at his words and looks, and already understood what Kublai Khan was worried about at this time, and just wanted to speak, but after thinking about it, he still said: "The big thing Your Highness refers to is that you are raising troops to go south and destroy the Song Dynasty?"

Kublai Khan was ordered by the Great Khan Meng Ge to be stationed in Kaifeng, and the Central Plains Zhulu Menghan military horses were transferred, looking for an opportunity to attack the Song Dynasty in the south, although this matter was not top secret, but it was also rarely known, and Kublai Khan had never talked to Xiao Yao before, only casually mentioned it when he retired the Golden Wheel Dharma King and Xiao Xiangzi and others, Xiao Yao had firmly remembered that this was really the unintentional speaker and the listener's intention. Although the major event that Kublai Khan was referring to was not this, he was still shocked in his heart, and unconsciously, he looked up to Xiao Yao's ability a little higher. At this time, he thought for a moment, then pushed the boat along the way, and asked noncommittally: "Then what do you think about this matter?"

Xiao Yao was waiting for Kublai Khan's words, and immediately said: "In my humble opinion, this is not a good time to wave his army to the south and destroy the Song Dynasty, and I hope that His Royal Highness the Prince will think twice before acting." ”

Kublai Khan frowned slightly and asked, "You said that this is not a good time, why is that?"

In fact, Xiao Yao took this opportunity to prevent Kublai Khan from going south, precisely because he thought that once the war began, the two sides met each other and marched together, then the people of the world would inevitably suffer endless suffering. Although he was not born in troubled times, let alone the war in his life, where thousands of people fought for their lives at every turn, and even ordinary street fights were rare, he read a lot of books and watched some documentaries about war, so he naturally knew the cruelty of war. After crossing the Southern Song Dynasty, he went through hardships, although he was determined to become a man of man, holding heavy power, and looking at the world, but in fact, the most sincere perseverance in his heart has not changed, and he will never choose "one will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither", and he is not willing to help Mongolia, which was still a "foreign" at that time, to attack the Song Dynasty, the land of Chinese orthodoxy, for his own selfishness. It's just that he already learned from the exhibition of history that the Southern Song Dynasty was terminally ill at this time, traitorous and political, and the country was declining, even if the Qin Emperor and Han Wu were alive, I am afraid that they would not be able to change this situation, let alone themselves, who were just ordinary young people in later generations. If you insist on using what you know and learn to help the Song Dynasty, and insist on trying to change that weak situation, you are afraid that in the end, you will be defeated in the court battle, and it is still a trivial matter to ruin your reputation, but if you increase the miserable life of the people of the Southern Song Dynasty for decades, the result will never be what you want. It was precisely because of this thought of this section that Xiao Yao finally decided to do the opposite, simply came to the Mongolian army, and defected to the future ancestor Kublai Khan, maybe there was still a glimmer of hope. At this time, in the face of Kublai Khan's inquiry, he took out the words he had already thought of and said: "My Mongolian soldiers are strong and strong, and the fierce generals are like clouds, if you plan properly and work together, it is only a matter of time before you take down the Song Dynasty." However, there is one thing, has Your Highness ever thought about it? His Royal Highness was the Mongolian Tuoli (vassal king) at this time, and his own power was not large, but Lin'an in the Southern Song Dynasty was located in a rich land in the south of the Yangtze River, with a large economy and talents, which was like a big piece of fat. His Highness has no problem cutting this piece of fat with a knife and fork, but in the end, the fat meat ends up in whose mouth?

Kublai Khan was shocked when he heard this, and when he thought about it slightly, his heart suddenly became bright, as if a fog in front of him had dissipated, so that the road ahead appeared clearly in front of him, which was really a word to wake up the dreamer. He immediately understood that although his subordinates had a large number of troops at this time, and they were enshrined in the Southern Han Land, stationed in Kaifeng, there was no shortage of soldiers, horses, money and food, and these things seemed to be within easy reach, but in fact, all the soldiers and horses were promoted by his brother Meng Ke Khan, and he was not the owner, but only a user and commander. Thinking of this, Kublai Khan secretly said: "I was born and died in a bloody battle, and the wealth and land I obtained in the future will not be handled by me after all, and in the end it will still belong to the Great Mongol Empire, that is, it can only fall into the hands of my brother." If I spend my life like this, I will gain nothing but fame and fortune. Whatever mind the world is, all of them will come to naught. At this thought, Kublai Khan frowned and worried, and his eyes were full of worry.

Xiao Yao knew that his words had played a role, so he didn't say much, just waiting for Kublai Khan to think slowly. After a while, I heard Kublai Khan suddenly ask slowly, "I don't know what good plan you have?"

Seeing this scene, Xiao Yao's heart sank, knowing that the critical moment affecting Kublai Khan had come, and the success or failure of the future was in this move, he secretly took a breath and said: "Land is the foundation of life, and reform is the key to Xu Tuzhan." And in the middle, having a set of their own team and huge power is the most fundamental guarantee for those who achieve great things. ”

When Kublai Khan heard this, after looking at Xiao Yao for a long time, he finally asked again: "Then according to Xiao Changshi's opinion, what should I do?"
