Ying Ning said: "This object has a unique way of looking at the hour, which is more delicate than a sundial, and I named it the hour hand." ”

The young lady said to herself: "Hour hand, this name is quite appropriate, let's call it hour hand." As he spoke, he brought the hour hand to his left wrist.

The young lady said, "It's not early, I'll go and talk to the big chief." With that, he got up and walked out of the room, walked through an alley in the compound, walked out of the courtyard gate, and walked into the courtyard gate next to it.

Entering the courtyard gate, it is also an alley, the young lady doesn't know which courtyard the big chief lives in the alley, so she came to the front of the courtyard gate and knocked, and a man came out of it, it was an An clan.

This person's name is An Hao, he is An Zong's uncle, he opened the courtyard door, saw an adult standing outside, hurriedly bowed his hand, and said, "Your Excellency is here, what is the matter?"

The young lady said, "I want to find a few people living in your courtyard to talk to, do you know which courtyard they live in?"

An Hao said: "Those people live in various small courtyards, I don't know which one the adults are looking for?"

The young lady said, "I'm looking for the man in the bearskin shoulder." ”

An Hao said: "My lord, please come with me." After speaking, he walked out of his yard, led the way, came to a courtyard gate, and said to the young lady: "There are three living in this courtyard, among which there are strong men who are dressed in bearskin and shoulders, and there are two in leopard skins. ”

The young lady said, "Thank you for leading the way." With that, he took out the two knife coins that had been prepared in his hand and handed them to Anhao.

An Hao took the knife coin and said, "Thank you for the reward." After speaking, he pushed open the courtyard door and led the young lady to the courtyard.

When the young lady entered the courtyard, she saw a fire coming from a room, and the sound of people drinking and clinking glasses was being heard inside.

The young lady walked directly to this room, the door was not closed, and the young lady entered the house to see, just like the house where she was staying, there were also three rooms in the outhouse.

An Hao saw that the adult had entered the house, walked to the house of a clansman next to him, and went to the door to gossip.

The young lady came to the door of the inner room where the noise was made, and looked in, only to see a brazier on the kang in the room, and three empty wine urns on the ground.

Chief Yelu, Xiao Timur, and Boerhu are sitting on the kang, around the low table, and they are drinking the dishes.

Chief Jerod sat on the throne, saw the young lady at a glance, and said, "Since your lord is here, let's drink the last urn with us." ”

The young lady walked to the kang and looked at it, and said, "There are no lacquerware bottles." ”

Chief Yelu stood up and shook the wine bottle next to him, and said, "There is not much in it, how about we divide it, and the lord will drink everything in the wine urn?"

The young lady said: "The guest is as he pleases, and after drinking, we can talk." ”

Chief Yelu took the wine urn, filled the wine jars for himself and Borhu Xiao Timur, and handed the rest of the wine to the young lady along with the wine urn, and the young lady took the wine urn, shook it, and said, "So I salute the three." After that, he picked up the wine urn and drank the wine in the urn in one goo, although there was not much left, there were nearly four taels.

Seeing this, the chief said, "My lord, we can't delay. With that, he picked up the wine bottle and drank all the wine in the bottle in one gulp.

Seeing this, Xiao Tiemur and Boerhu also drank their respective bottles of wine in one gulp.

After the three of them had finished drinking, Chief Yelu said, "This house is in a mess, and it will be cleaned up later, so let's go to that house and talk." After speaking, he got up and bent down, came to the side of the kang, and came to another room with Boerhu Xiao Tiemur in turn.

The young lady had already put down the wine urn and waited in the outhouse, and when all three of them had entered the room, she herself had gone in.

There were three low stools in the room, and the chief of Yelu sat down on the kang with his back to the door of the inner room, and asked the young lady to also go on the kang and sit opposite him to the door of the inner room.

A few people sat down, and the young lady said: "Tasting Longtan wine today, it is really very, no wonder the big chief did not forget to drink here." ”

The chief said, "It's a pity that there is a limited amount of alcohol here, so you can't bring more back." ”

The young lady said: "I have asked the inhabitants here, and they do not dare to make more wine and open a big shop for carriages and horses, but they are afraid that there will be a dispute between our two countries, and they will go south to harass the slaves. ”

The big chief said: "My lord, that's really the case. I think that in the territory of the Jin Kingdom, until after the Golden Beach, there is a big car and horse store, and I should be afraid of sudden war. ”

The young lady said: "This is the fief of the prince of our country, but it is rarely managed, so that the people's hearts are unstable. Now that I am in charge of the Guanwai, I will set up an official hall in this important place along the way. This Shagang is also a place of three links, so I will build a Lingyin Xing here, a big store for cars and horses, and brew more Longtan water wine. ”

The chief said, "Your Excellency has brewed more wine, you must keep some for me, and I will buy it from your Excellency at that time." ”

The young lady said: "It's just that this place is located on the plain, and there is no danger to prevent, otherwise I can build an official hall here and lead the military and government of the northwest." ”

The big chief said: "Our two states, have formed a brotherly alliance, we must be unanimous, to deal with the patrol slaves, the lord has the will to develop here, he can play the king of Yan one day, you and I two states, officially demarcate the border, and then the lord will set up an official hall, wouldn't it be better?"

The young lady said, "The king is right. After speaking, he continued: "I came here to hear how the king met the green man?"

The chief said, "I saw it in the camp of the Qiang people when I was young. The Qiang people are in a domain, and it is rare to have an intersection with us. That year I served as a pioneer and invaded the Jin Kingdom. I led 30,000 of my own people all the way south, and wherever I passed, it was like entering a no-man's land, and I quickly killed the golden sand beaches, and grabbed many slaves and food.

I thought, 'Why is the Jin Kingdom so unbearable, the army is gone, where has it gone?'

This road was extremely smooth, until about ten miles before the Xicheng Pass of the Jin Kingdom, it was discovered that there were Qiang people stationed in the military village before the Xicheng Pass, and they were attacking the Xicheng Pass.

I found foreign soldiers and horses, so I found an abandoned small village six miles before the Xicheng Pass and set up camp.

The Qiang people also discovered our brigade from the northeast, and sent people to contact me, I asked them who brought the soldiers, and the people who came replied that they were in Wubuji, and they were willing to form an alliance with us to jointly break through the Xicheng Pass and share the Jin Kingdom.

I didn't have much contact with the Qiang, and I didn't know how good they were, but when I saw that their soldiers were galloping horses, and they were on a par with my army, I agreed to the visitor, and told him to go back and say to Ri Ubuji, 'I will visit tomorrow.' ’

The next day, I took two interpreters to the Qiang camp and was taken to the military tent in Ubuji. As we spoke, a man entered, with green skin and a medium build. This green-faced man is not like what the national teacher said, covering his head and covering his face, with a robe covering his body, but a suit of armor, and no scales were found on his neck.

When I saw that this man was strange-looking, when he left, I asked who this person was, and why did he have such a strange complexion?"
