Chapter 124: The Story
At this moment, Li Xuandu had already left the palace of Mingli Khan and met with Ili Khan in a wine shop in the civilian area of the royal court.
Irihan changed out of aristocratic clothes and wore ordinary clothes, like a veteran returning from the battlefield, he led the army all the year round, took the lead, and was familiar with the low-level soldiers, and did not let people see his noble status at a glance. As for Li Xuandu, he also changed out of the dress and put on an ordinary dress, like a businessman from the Central Plains.
The two sat opposite each other, and Irihan said softly: "Messenger, you have obtained the 'Immortal Stone' of the National Teacher, and I don't dare to say that I can win against you." ”
Li Xuan didn't deny it, and said: "If I don't get the 'Immortal Stone', the 'Immortal Stone' will fall into the hands of the Earth Master or the Holy Monarch, which Ili Khan probably doesn't want to see." ”
Ili Khan smiled bitterly, "The old Khan and the national teacher are dead, and there is a traitor Ngan Khan, now is the weakest time for the royal court." ”
Li Xuandu said: "So Irihan needs my help, otherwise you will not have the confidence to control the situation." ”
Irihan sighed, "If only the kings could unite...... It is a pity that instead of uniting, the kings will attack each other. This gave the earth and the Holy Monarch room to make a move, and as far as I know, the Earth Master chose to support Batu Khan, and the Holy Monarch chose to support the Xiao Yan clan. ”
Li Xuandu was surprised: "The earth master didn't choose to lose Gan Khan. ”
"It was also unexpected. Ili Khan said: "It seems that the earth master has long colluded with Batu Khan, no wonder when the royal court was in turmoil, Batu Khan chose to leave the royal court as soon as possible." ”
The two fell into silence, and now there are four forces in the royal court, Ngan Khan, Batu Khan, Mingli Khan, Yaomu Khan, the national teacher supports Ngan Khan, the earth division supports Batu Khan, Ili Khan supports Mingli Khan, the Holy Monarch and the Xiao Yan clan support Yaomu Khan, as for Naija Khan, he originally had the support of the old Khan King, but with the ascension of the old Khan, this former candidate for the new Khan has become insignificant. Of course, with the death of the national teacher, the Sugaran Khan also had to withdraw from the competition for the position of the Great Khan, leaving only Batu Khan, Mingli Khan, and Yaomu Khan.
After a long time, Li Xuandu finally asked: "Are you willing to let a king of the Left Five inherit the throne of the Great Khan?" I respect the character of Ili Khan, and I hope that Ili Khan will not lie and deceive in this matter. ”
Ili Khan was silent for a moment and said: "I am the brother of the old Khan, but I voluntarily gave up the position of the Great Khan in order to ensure that the blood of the old Khan can inherit the throne. The bloodline of the fifth king of Zuo and Lao Khan is farther away, although they are the same ancestor, but take Mr. Li as an example, the surname Li among you Central Plains people is a big surname, and the number of people is probably as many as millions, and it is impossible that these millions of people are all relatives of Mr. Li. ”
Li Xuandu smiled, "What does Irihan mean is that as long as it is the Right Five Kings, even if it is Yaomu Khan, is it okay?"
Ili Khan immediately understood Li Xuandu's intentions, "Mr. Li asked me to give up Mingli Khan and support Yaomu Khan instead. ”
Li Xuandu said: "Exactly, the current Mingli Khan no longer believes in Ili Khan, and is full of resentment towards Ili Khan, if he becomes the new Khan king, Ili Khan's life may not be good."
Pass. In addition, with my understanding of the Earth Master, he will definitely go to see Ngan Khan and persuade Bagan Khan to become a vassal of Batu Khan, and at that time, he and Batu Khan can completely make Bagan Khan the Great Khan, and then let Batu Khan take your place as the head of the kings, and at the same time be the actual Khan King behind the scenes. Don't forget, Wagan Khan is also one of the five kings of the right, the son of the old Khan, so that it will not arouse the opposition of the Nayans, and you will even lose the name of blood righteousness. ”
Ili Khan fell silent, neither for nor against.
Li Xuandu is most similar to the earth master in that they are both good at persuading others, have the potential of a vertical and horizontal family, and also have the problem of being a good teacher. Li Xuandu continued: "If the combination of Zangan Khan and Batu Khan, they have the name of righteousness and the army, and they are all stronger than Mingli Khan and Yaomu Khan, in this case, the weak two sides must unite in order to survive, Ili Khan is familiar with the classics of the Central Plains, and he should know the truth of the cold lips and teeth." ”
Ili Khan had no choice but to speak, and said: "What the envoy said is not wrong, but why is it Yaomu Khu Khan, not Mingli Khan? Mingli Khan is the eldest son of the old Khan, and his strength and prestige are far superior to that of Yaomu Khuhan, a hairy boy. ”
Li Xuandu said: "I have already said that after a 'false alarm', Mingli Khan no longer trusts Ili Khan. If you choose Mingli Khan, sooner or later you will be counterattacked. Just like a technique I practiced before, I entered the realm quickly, but there are also huge hidden dangers, I usually don't have a seizure, but when I fight with a master, I will lose my life in an instant, and even worse, I will make a wedding dress for others. ”
Li Xuandu used many speaking habits and colloquialisms of the Central Plains, and he believed that Ili Khan could understand them.
Ilhan remembered Li Xuandu's performance in the face of the national teacher, and sighed, which can be regarded as agreeing with Li Xuandu's statement. However, Ili Khan still had concerns, and said slowly: "I never care what Mingli Khan thinks, I care more about the thoughts of the Great Clan, to me, she is like a mother, but now she is too old to bear too much blow." Maybe she doesn't know when, she will follow the old Khan. ”
Li Xuandu said: "If it was the old Khan, he would not have such concerns, and of course, he would not give up the position of the Great Khan." ”
"I am a completely different person from Old Khan. Irihan said in a calm tone, "I know exactly what I want. ”
Li Xuandu said: "I have a suggestion, let the Xiao Yan clan convince the Da Yan clan, after all, the two of them are sisters." ”
Irihan frowned and disagreed, "The two are sisters and enemies, just like the kings who competed for the throne of the Great Khan, they were all brothers. ”
Li Xuandu said: "This might as well be regarded as a test for Xiao Yan's family, since she wants her son to become a new khan, then she has to take action, there is no reason to sit back and enjoy it." ”
Ili Khan got up and said, "Then the messenger will relay this matter to the little clan." ”
Li Xuandu sat in his seat and didn't mean to get up, and watched Ili Khan leave.
Then Li Xuandu turned his eyes outside, after the civilian area suffered from the war, it was no longer as lively as before, it was a little deserted, and many places had become
ruins.
A short time later, a woman wearing a hood appeared opposite Li Xuandu without warning.
Li Xuandu retracted his gaze and asked, "Is the Holy Monarch satisfied?"
Yu Taiyun reached out and tapped on the table, "Are you helping me, or are you helping yourself?"
Li Xuandu said: "There are both, and now, there is no conspiracy at all, only Yang conspiracy." I don't care who will do this Golden Horde Khan, I just want to use this matter to break the Golden Horde, I want to let Batu Khan and Ili Khan face each other with swords, so that the Golden Horde will no longer have the strength to attack the Central Plains. ”
Tang Taiyun let out a "heh", and he couldn't hear the mockery or sigh in his tone, "That's really a lot of merit." ”
Li Xuandu shook his head and said, "Each is his master." ”
Taiyun said: "You are walking on the old road of Situ Xuance, then you might as well think about the fate of Situ Xuance." ”
Li Xuandu said calmly: "It's nothing more than a death." I have walked the rivers and lakes for many years, and I am not as high as the Holy Monarch and the Earth Master, and I have had many times of despair and frustration, and I have experienced countless life and death dangers. The people are not afraid of death, so why should they be afraid of death?"
Yu Taiyun smiled, "It's a man, but the current situation is different, in the past, you were alone, of course you weren't afraid of death, but now you will soon start a family, have friends, subordinates, married wives, and even children, can you still let go at that time? You can bear to leave behind those like-minded partners with you, you can bear to leave orphans and widows?"
Li Xuan was silent.
When people reach middle age, they will always become timid, which is not unreasonable.
After a long time, Li Xuandu said, "I'll tell the Holy Monarch a story." ”
Yu Taiyun did not speak.
Li Xuandu acquiesced to her, "If I meet the Earth Master now, and the Earth Master is impatient with me, and thinks that I am hindering his plan and wants to kill me, then what should I do?"
Taiyun asked, "How?"
Li Xuandu said: "Although I am not afraid of death, I also don't want to give my life in vain, so I will run, run desperately, and use all my strength to escape, no matter how embarrassed I am now, it is better to survive than anything else, we will come to a long time." ”
Yu Taiyun smiled, "This is also called a story?"
"Please listen patiently. Li Xuandu said, "But if I am not alone when I meet the earth master, there is Miss Qin behind me, and even our children, Miss Qin can't run fast with the child, then what should I do?"
Yutaiyun was stunned.
Li Xuandu asked himself and replied: "Can I still run? If I run away, what will the two of them do? Hope that the earth master will show mercy? Or marry another woman? Have another child? No, because I can't pass this hurdle for myself." So I can't run, I have to carry it, I have to carry it, I have to carry it if I can't carry it, at least I can buy some time for them to escape. ”
Tang Taiyun was silent, and after a long time, he said: "Miss Qin's vision of knowing people is indeed much better than mine. ”
