Yelu Shilu exhaled a force, and finally helped him to the couch completely, "Turn your waist around, is this this place just now?"

He actually began to knead the sore spot on his waist for Liu Yu with his hands. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Liu Yu couldn't bear the pain and wanted to get up, "Khan, don't you dare." If you're injured, go back to your bed. ”

Yelu Shilu smiled, "You don't like my massage skills, do you?"

He pushed Liu Yu back on the couch, pinched it for a while, and waited for his pain to ease before returning to his big couch, "Let's just lie down and talk, you don't have to get up." ”

"Yes!" replied Liu Yu, for the first time he felt that the prairie hero in front of him looked like a kind old man.

The two chatted for a short time, and Yelu Shilu suddenly blinked like a child and asked, "General Liu, do you have a nickname outside?"

Liu Yu smiled slightly, thinking that people say "old to young, old to young", which is really the case, he blushed and replied: "Don't hide it from Khan, when I was in the village before, my father scolded me for being a 'stupid horse', others called me 'Ertunzi', and an Aunt Lu called me a 'dog baby', and her man Uncle Mao called me 'pony'. ”

Yelu Shilu laughed when he heard this, "When I was young, I didn't have as many nicknames as you, and others called me 'Black Tiger'. Because spotted tigers are easy to be spotted even if they hide in the jungle, but once the black tiger waits until it gets dark before coming out to hunt, no one can detect it, and it can hurt people unconsciously. ”

"They must have given you such a nickname because they were afraid of you. Liu Yu said with a smile.

"Actually, I want to make friends too, but unfortunately these people don't have enough guts. Yelu Shilu shook his head and sighed, coughed a few times sharply, and he suddenly glared at Liu Yu, "Can we be friends?"

"In my heart, Khan has long been my friend!" Liu Yu's voice trembled slightly.

Yelu Shilu smiled and nodded, "The older people get, the more lonely they become, and it feels really good to have multiple friends." ”

The candlelight was dim, and he was a little lacking in energy because of the accumulated injuries on his body, and he closed his eyes again and fell asleep.

Liu Yu was vaguely uneasy in his heart, so he asked while he had not yet fallen asleep: "Khan, is there something big going to happen tonight?"

"No, sleep in peace!" Yelu Shilu opened his eyes and smiled, he called in the Khan King's guards who were on duty outside the curtain gate, "Move the stove closer to the small couch, don't freeze General Liu." ”

......

Early the next morning, Liu Yu said goodbye to Yelu Shilu and returned to Xie Anniang's tent.

He understood that the longer he stayed in the Great Tent of the Khan, the easier it was to arouse the jealousy of those Khitan nobles, and people with an inflated desire for power such as Nomu would not let him go.

As soon as he stepped into the tent, he felt something unusual, and saw that the tent was full of more than a dozen corpses. The heads of the seven wounded old men rolled happily among these corpses, biting one bite of this and another, as if enjoying a gluttonous feast.

Xie Anniang sat sideways on the edge of the couch without saying a word, looking a little tired, looking like she had not slept all night.

"What happened last night?" asked Liu Yu in surprise.

"Shortly after I fell asleep, a group of Assassins broke into the tent. Xie Anniang pointed to the head of the seven injured old men on the ground, "Fortunately, this monster is here, it bit and killed more than half of the people, and the rest of the people didn't dare to continue to do it, they all fled." I couldn't sleep anymore. ”

"Whoever looks at the pile of corpses in front of them can't sleep. Liu Yu nodded, "Yesterday, the Khan spoke in front of the elders of the Xungui Su to protect me, and those people should be angry in their hearts, and they didn't dare to confront the Khan in person, so they sent assassins to kill me." ”

Xie Anniang hadn't recovered from her panic yet, "It's good that you didn't come back last night, otherwise even if this monster guards the tent and doesn't let those assassins enter the tent, those people can still shoot rockets outside the tent and burn you and me alive in the tent."

"Yes, the Khan invited me to stay overnight last night" Liu Yu's gaze swept over the corpses in the pool of blood, and at the same time, he also understood Yelu Shilu's intention to stay overnight last night.

At present, the war between the Khitan and Tubo has not been extinguished, Yelu Shilu has long expected that these Khitan nobles will be unfavorable to Liu Yu, but as a Khitan Khan, it is impossible for him to use these nobles and nobles of his own side when employing people, so as not to scatter people's hearts and weaken his own power, so he can only save Liu Yu's life by staying overnight.

Xie Anniang's eyes widened after hearing this, "As far as I know, for hundreds of years on the grassland, there are only three people who can get this kind of treatment, and they are all the ministers of the Khan at that time. ”

"This time it's different, Khan is just trying to save my life. Liu Yu said.

"You must kill that Nogi, this man has a great appetite and a strong desire for revenge, and he must be the one who picks the lead among those nobles and sends someone to assassinate you. After suffering last night's assassination, she developed a deep fear of this Khitan general named Nomuqi.

"Yes, but not now. Liu Yu snorted, "At the moment of employing people, it is not good for us to move these people now, but it is what the Tubo people are willing to see." ”

Xie Anniang couldn't help but look up at the burly young man in front of him, after the baptism of war and intrigues, this person is no longer the ignorant young man three or four years ago, "But the wood must not stay for a long time, this person is too scheming, and he is in harmony with the nobles of the Khitan tribes, and the foundation is very solid." If there is no Khan to deter him, he can turn over the rain with a single hand, and it will be easy to kill me and you. ”

"Understood. Liu Yu said, he had some vague thoughts in his heart, how could he be clumsy, and he couldn't clearly let Xie Anniang understand, "You have to be extra careful these days, and you must not let people approach." ”

"How long do you think the Khan will live?" Xie Anniang asked anxiously, she once hated the man named Yelu Shilu, hated him for ruthlessly destroying her youth, but now she regarded this person as an umbrella, and only hoped that this person would live a little longer.

"Khan...... I won't die!" replied with a fixed mind, since he had taken Yelu Shilu as a friend, the weakness of his friend must not be revealed to others casually.

He continued: "Tonight I will send Bao Huji and Longtai to protect you, since the two of them have been to the Central Plains once, they have been quite sinicized, you should be able to use it to your heart's content." Moreover, these two are very sociable, and they are well-informed among the Khitans, and if there is any disturbance outside, they will immediately report it to me. ”

"They don't have martial arts, they are not as good as me, and they can be used as followers!" Xie Anniang sighed faintly.

At this time, the sound of war drums came from outside the tent, as if the Tibetans were coming. From the panicked hooves of the soldiers, it can be heard that the Tibetans must be menacing.
