Chapter 260: Wine-Colored Friends
Under the harassment of the Mongols' raid tactics, the Northern Expeditionary Army had no choice but to stop. The army was stationed fifty miles away from the central capital, although it did not push further than the one, but the light of the day, in the middle of the capital, it was visible.
Wanyan Honglie stood on top of the tower of the central capital, surrounded by a large group of guards, protecting him every step of the way.
"Kang'er, now our Dajin Kingdom is facing an unprecedented test......" Wanyan Honglie stood on the tall wall of the central capital, looking at the Northern Expeditionary Army camp in the distance, and said to Yang Kang beside him.
"Father, isn't the Song army stopped by the Mongols now, you see where they are camped, they don't dare to move. Since Yan Honglie became the crown prince, Yang Kang began to consciously pay attention to the war of Song Jin, and he didn't want the emperor's dream to be at his fingertips in the future, so it was broken by the Northern Expeditionary Army.
"The Mongols can stop the Song army for a while, but how can they stop it for a lifetime? What's more, how can we rest assured that the Mongols will help us defend the capital for a long time, once Temujin's mind changes, won't we die without a place to be buried?" Wanyan Honglie taught his son like a father.
"Kang'er, you have to remember that at any time, you can't trust anyone unreservedly, you must have your own hole cards in order to be invincible, you know?"
"Can't even my father fully believe it?" Yang Kang asked in a ghostly manner.
Wanyan Honglie was stunned for a moment, but when he thought that he was teaching the future prince of the Dajin Kingdom, he nodded very resolutely and said, "Yes, even your father and even your mother can't fully believe it." As a worthy king. This is a must!"
"Well, the kid knows!" Yang Kang nodded heavily, Wan Yan Honglie didn't notice the strange look in his big delicate eyes.
At this time, Elder Ximen hurriedly walked over and said a word to Wan Yan Honglie. Wanyan Honglie nodded lightly and said, "Trouble Mr. Simon." β
Elder Simon smiled and said, "This is within the scope of our Iron Palm Gang. Then he clasped his fists and retreated.
"Father, what did Mr. Simon say?" Yang Kang asked curiously.
"It's nothing, Kang'er, it's just that my father invited the Mongols to a banquet in the middle capital to thank them for leading troops to help. Wan Yan Honglie said.
"Why bother Mr. Simon with such a trivial matter?"
"Because we have to guard against the Mongols taking advantage of the opportunity to enter the city on a large scale, Mr. Simon is very strong in martial arts. With him by Temujin's side, we are not afraid that Temujin will dare to make a move......" Wanyan Honglie took Yang Kang down the city wall and returned to his Zhao Palace. However, it has now been changed to the East Palace Prince's Mansion.
Since the Northern Expedition was approaching, the central capital was depressed for a long time, and it was not until the Northern Expeditionary Army's front was blocked by the Mongols that it became a little more vigorous.
The prince's mansion also changed the heavy atmosphere of the past, and the servants began to sweep the courtyard and set up wine for feasts. I'm going to welcome some distinguished guests today.
Temujin only brought Jochi, Torre, and Guo Jing into the city, while Zamuhe and Sangkun were separated. They simply only brought more than a hundred personal soldiers each.
The 50,000 iron cavalry of the Mongols were just outside the middle capital, and the Song army was eyeing them, Temujin and others felt that after borrowing a hundred of Yan Honglie's courage, they would not dare to harm them.
And this is exactly the case, when Temujin and others arrived. Wanyan Honglie took Wanyan Hongxi and Yang Kang to greet him in person at the gate of the Prince's Mansion, with a warm and respectful attitude, a smile on his face, and an arrogant demeanor in the Mongolian camp that day. The contrast is striking.
Jochi immediately snorted coldly, Temujin smiled, if it weren't for the pair of extremely sharp eagle eyes that flickered from time to time, no one would have thought that this person would be a generation of heroes.
The guests and hosts talked and laughed with each other, entered the banquet hall, sat down in turn, Wanyan Honglie raised the golden cup, laughed and said: "This time my Dajin country is in trouble, Temujin recruited you to lead the people to the king of Qin, and the merit is great, and after defeating the Song people, I will be rewarded with a lot of gold!"
Temujin also laughed and raised the golden cup, and said, "Temujin, the official position of the envoy, is still valued by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and given to me. Now that the prince is in trouble, how can I, Temujin, not save him?"
Zamuhe also said: "We Mongolians are the most righteous towards friends, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in trouble, so we can't stand idly by." β
Sang Kun said: "If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to reward, I, Sang Kun, will definitely not refuse to come." β
After Yan Honglie smiled and chanted and sang and harmonized with Temujin and others, after three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Wanyan Honglie invited Temujin and others to the study to discuss matters.
Leaving Jochi, Guo Jing and Torrey in the banquet room, looking at the delicacies of the mountains and seas, and the fine delicacies, they had already filled their stomachs and couldn't eat anymore.
Guo Jing and Torre were both seeing such a luxurious mansion for the first time, and they were so beautiful everywhere that they were so excited that they ran out together holding hands, wanting to play around.
Jochi felt even more bored, and suddenly at a glance, he saw Wanyan Hongxi who was about to retreat quietly, and recognized him as the third prince of the Dajin Kingdom who came to the grassland with Wanyan Honglie, and his heart moved slightly, feeling that he was in the middle capital, except for Wanyan Honglie, there was only such an acquaintance.
"Three...... The third prince!" Jochi, who was burping with wine, fell to the ground in three or two steps to catch up with Wanyan Hongxi, put his arm on his shoulder, and said inarticulately: "Third prince, do you remember me, I ...... I am Temujin's eldest son, and I am ...... Jochi!"
Looking at this drunkard holding himself, Wanyan Hongxi couldn't help frowning, the smell of sheep on the Mongolian people was really not something that people could smell, and he was about to shake it off when he raised his hand, thinking of this person who claimed to be Temujin's son, he suddenly didn't dare to come nonsense.
"Three...... Third Prince, don't you remember me?" Jochi opened his drunken eyes, held Wanyan Hongxi's head with both hands, looked at Wanyan Hongxi directly, and said: "Third Prince, you are not enough friends?! In Mongolia, I also sent you several Mongolian maids! The next day, we also exchanged ideas together!"
"Oh! it's you!" As soon as Jochi said this, Wanyan Hongxi immediately remembered that those Mongolian maids at the beginning tasted really good, but it was a pity that they were killed later, and it turned out that this person gave them to them.
"I didn't expect you to come to our Dajin Country, I didn't recognize you just now, I'm sorry. "Wanyan Hongxi has been drunk and dreaming of death since the failure of the heir, and he has been indulging in wine.
"If you're embarrassed, I'll stop mentioning it. Jochi waved his hand impatiently, and said with a big tongue: "When I was in Mongolia, I tried my best to entertain you, but this time I arrived in Jinguo, how can you satisfy me......
Wanyan Hongxi immediately patted his chest and promised: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, now that Kangle Fang hasn't reopened, this king can't take you to that kind of wonderful place." I can only take you to my house, there are a few excellent ones in this palace, you can choose, haha. β
For those Han female slaves in the house, Wanyan Hongxi has never cared, sometimes he gets tired of playing, and it is common for his subordinates to take turns to enjoy it, let alone give it to Jochi.
"Haha, haha, that's good, the woman of Dajin Kingdom, I'm Jochi, I haven't tasted it yet!" At that moment, Jochi laughed, put an arm on Wanyan Hongxi's shoulder, and stumbled away with Wanyan Hongxi.
The soldiers he brought with him, seeing that Jochi looked drunk, divided fifty people and followed Jochi.
Wanyan Hongxi's Rongwang Mansion is magnificent, and it is even better than Wanyan Honglie's Prince's Mansion. However, this is only a faΓ§ade.
Since Wanyan Honglie became the prince of the prison country, Wanyan Hongxi's old ministries have rushed to cut off contact with him, and now although the mansion is big, it is cold. Even the servants who guarded the door yawned and yawned.
In the past, the guards at the door of King Rong's Mansion were all high-grade soldiers! Where could there be such listless slaves?
Wanyan Hongxi glanced at the gate of King Rong's Mansion, greeted Jochi with a hissing smile, and walked in the vestibule, a maid walked over, and the color was still visible in the dark night, delicate and lovely.
Where had Jochi seen such a clean woman, and suddenly the wine surged, and he shook his hand and pushed Wanyan Hongxi, and with his thick body, he threw himself towards the maid.
The maid screamed in fright, and a basin in her hand was thrown to the ground with a thud, and the red clothes inside were scattered on the ground.
Jochi only cared about holding the maid tightly, up and down his hands, and his head was still on the maid's body, arching back and forth.
"The prince saves me! the prince saves me!" the maid saw Yan Hongxi early in the morning, and immediately shouted in panic.
Wanyan Hongxi hesitated in his eyes, this is not a slave girl, but Princess Rong's personal maid, and she has long been included in the room by him, and she has never been touched. If he finishes Yan Hongxi and ascends the throne, this maid will be at least a concubine!
However, thinking of Jochi's identity, Wanyan Hongxi had to swallow this breath, the Song army in front of him was forcing the city, and he Wanyan Hongxi had already lost his momentum, so what could he do to fight Jochi?
Not to mention anything else, Jochi was followed by fifty Mongolian soldiers, and the one thousand soldiers in his own house had already been transferred to the city tower by Wanyan Honglie to guard the city. At present, there are only some slaves in the entire Rongwang Mansion. How to stop getting Jochi?
"It's just a maid...... Yan Hongxi reminded himself of this, then squeezed out a smile and said to the maid: "This is a Mongolian nobleman, who is good to serve." β
The maid was stunned on the spot, her face was dull, and she stopped shouting, and let Jochi do whatever she wanted in this courtyard...... (To be continued.) )
