Chapter 100: Meeting
I have to say that in the royal court, there are very few things that the Xiao Yan clan can't do. Even when the two armies fought, she still spread the word to the ears of Ili Khan through various channels.
As for why it was Ili Khan instead of Mingli Khan, Li Xuandu thought about it, Mingli Khan was too treacherous, but Ili Khan acted more openly. The most critical point is that the military power must be in the hands of Ili Khan, coupled with his high rank, after the death of the old Khan, Ili Khan has become nominally the closest person to the throne of the Khan, which is enough to change the situation of the entire royal court.
At dawn, Ili Khan sent back the news and agreed to meet with Li Xuandu, and the meeting location was set in a camp in the northwest of the outer court, which had not yet been affected by the war, and was crowded with herdsmen's tents, and it was impossible for cavalry to enter this area, which could be regarded as the sincerity of Ili Khan.
At the same time, Ning Yi, Shi Wuyue, and Huangfu Yuxiu also found Li Xuandu.
Li Xuandu told the three of them about last night's experience in general, and after listening to it, the three of them had different expressions. Huangfu Yuxiu's expression was complicated, and at this time he also knew that he had misunderstood the Holy Monarch, but it was also an indisputable fact that he betrayed the Holy Monarch, and how to face the Holy Monarch Taiyun in the future was really a difficult problem. Shi Wuyue was a little excited, and said: "Good Song Zheng, he really hid in the royal court, and he still wanted to seize the Golden Horde, which is something he can do." By the way, you said that he used the appearance of the Lost Sweet Khan, how does that Lost Sweet Khan look?"
"Senior Shi shouldn't be an old love, right?" Li Xuandu joked, "Dangan Khan doesn't look very good, he is a person who has been in the Spring and Autumn Period, and he is also a Golden Horde person, which is very different from our Central Plains people, I am afraid it will be difficult to enter Shi Wuyue's eyes." ”
Shi Wuyue is accustomed to judging people by their appearance, and when she heard Li Xuandu say this, she immediately showed a look of disgust, and said: "It's really more and more alive, no wonder Taiyun can't look down on him, if you really want to talk about it, Taiyun is his first match, and he has followed him since he was not yet developed, if Song Zheng becomes the emperor, Taiyun is the mother of the main palace, and we are just concubines." ”
Shi Wuyue has always spoken unscrupulously, Li Xuandu and Ning Yi have long been used to it, but Huangfu Yuxiu is not very used to it, and when it comes to Taiyun, his face is a little ugly.
Shi Wuyue was still unsatisfied, and continued: "Song Zheng is still not satisfied with a Taiyun, he always wants to dip flowers and twist grass, and if he doesn't say it on his face, he must be unhappy in his heart, but at that time, Taiyun couldn't compare to Song Zheng, and he couldn't control him, Song Zheng became more and more unscrupulous, now it's okay, retribution is coming, I'll see how he ends." ”
Li Xuan didn't want to attribute the fight between Taiyun and Song Zheng to grievances and hatred, in his opinion, the two actually had a fundamental conflict of interests, Song Zheng was the previous sect leader of the Daoless Sect,
As Taiyun himself said, she has done what Song Zheng has not done, so why should she listen to Song Zheng's orders? Just because Song Zheng is a man and she is a woman? There is no such reason. What monarch is the minister, the father is the son, and the husband is the wife, when it comes to the interests of power, who cares about the monarch and minister, father and son, husband and wife.
Li Xuan didn't want to say this to Shi Wuyue, because this woman would always attribute the cause of all things to the word "love", and the martial arts master couldn't make an inch of progress in his life because of love; brothers and sisters turned against each other because they fell in love with the same person; and the vendetta of the Jianghu sect went around and around, and it was also because of the "love" between the two heads. It's always love to think about it, completely ignoring the interests and harms, and it seems that the general trend of this world revolves around the word "love". How can it be explained? Since it doesn't make sense, there's no need to say it again.
Li Xuandu turned the topic away, looked at Huangfu Yuxiu and asked, "Brother Huangfu, are you going or staying?"
Huangfu Yuxiu hesitated for a moment and then made a decision, "Okay, if it's wrong, it's wrong, how can I, Huangfu Yuxiu, be that kind of person who doesn't believe in his words." ”
Li Xuandu didn't talk nonsense, and took the three of them out of Xiao Yan's palace and went to the agreed meeting place.
Shi Wuyue's feet were incapacitated, and it was not easy for people to carry them at this time, so her feet floated off the ground, like a female ghost.
Soon, the four great masters of the Heavenly and Human Realm came to the place where they met, Ili Khan was already waiting here, compared to Li Xuandu, Ili Khan was more open, and he actually went to the meeting alone, but he did have this qualification, after all, he was the first master of the Cowardly Xue Army.
Ili Khan's injured leg had healed, and he couldn't see the slightest injury, standing in front of a dilapidated tent, and after seeing Li Xuandu, he made a gesture to Li Xuandu.
The five people walked into the tent, the tent was empty, Irihan sat down in the master's position, and said in the official dialect of the Central Plains with a slightly strange accent: "Envoy of the Central Plains, we meet again, please take a seat." ”
Then his gaze fell on Ning Yi's body and said, "I remember you, we also fought that day, and your sword skills are very powerful, which reminds me of the king of horse thieves on the northwest border." ”
Ning Yi was silent for a moment and said, "It's me." ”
Ili Khan smiled, "The strength of the envoy is far stronger than I imagined, the king of horse thieves once killed Batu Khan's nephew, and that nephew was actually the son of Batu Khan and his sister-in-law adultery, so Batu Khan vowed to exterminate all horse thieves and capture the king of horse thieves, but unfortunately, Batu Khan's oath is not valuable." But don't worry, I'm not Batu Khan, I don't care about these things, I care more about the truth that the messenger said. ”
Li Xuandu said: "Which truth does Irihan want to know?"
"Xiao Yan said that the old Khan was dead. Ili Khan seemed to have expected this news, and he was not so surprised, "How did Old Khan die?"
Li Xuandu said truthfully: "Died at the hands of the national teacher." The old Khan was wise, but he was greedy for immortality, so he fell into the calculations of the national teacher. I have never seen how the old Khan died, but when I saw the old Khan, his body was only the size of a baby. ”
Irihan's face became solemn, "I don't know if the envoy has heard of the 'Immortal Stone'?"
Li Xuandu was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I have heard that this kind of stone can make people immortal. ”
"Exactly. Ili Khan sighed, "The 'Immortal Stone' is a sacred object passed down from generation to generation in shamanism, and it is precisely because of the legend of the 'Immortal Stone' that the old Khan will ask the national teacher for the art of immortality, according to the description of the envoy, the old Khan seems to have been refined into the 'Immortal Stone'." ”
Irihan sighed: "Since the old Khan began to seek immortality, I have foreseen this day, so I have repeatedly advised the old Khan, but unfortunately the old Khan did not listen. ”
Speaking of this, Irihan paused slightly, and his tone turned stern, "But whether the old Khan is wise or stupid, whether the time is running out, this is not a reason for others to assassinate him, as one of the kings of the royal court, and as the brother of the old Khan, I must avenge the old Khan and wash away the shame of the royal family with the blood of the murderer." ”
"But it's hard to make a decision too early on who the murderer is. Ili Khan looked at Li Xuandu, and the words changed, "The envoy said that the national teacher was the murderer, and the envoy saw it with his own eyes, but there is still a question. ”
Li Xuandu said: "Irihan, please speak." ”
Ili Khan stretched out two fingers and said, "First, there were two Immortal Realm masters who fought fiercely last night, one of them was the National Teacher, I can completely say that an Immortal Realm master assassinated Old Khan, and then fought with the National Teacher. Second, why did the envoy appear in the old Khan's golden horde?"
Li Xuandu said: "The reason why I went to the Golden Horde is because the Igan Khan summoned me in the name of the old Khan, but in fact he wanted to blame me. ”
Ili Khan stared at Li Xuandu, "Not long ago, Ngan Khan had already seen me. ”
Li Xuandu was taken aback, "What about others now?"
Irihan said: "Left. ”
Li Xuandu said: "He is the murderer who conspired with the national teacher to kill the old Khan, how can Ili Khan let him go?"
Irihan said: "I cannot tell whether the two of you are true or false. ”
Li Xuandu fell silent, and after a while, he said: "Ili Khan can invite Rigan Khan, and I can confront Igan Khan face to face under the witness of Iri Khan." ”
