Crown Jewels

Chapter 233 Xia Guo's Instigation

Gu Baozhu looked at Lu Yi puzzledly, and saw Lu Yi nodded slightly towards her. This attitude seemed to imply something. Her pupils shrank for a moment, and she obediently lifted up her skirt and knelt on the bright yellow imperial decree. forward.

The night shone into the Honglu Temple, the autumn rain swept the tree trunks bare, and the fallen leaves were hit on the ground with a rustling sound.

Huyan Uwei staggered into the hall with the wine bottle in his arms, and was grabbed by two thick hands as soon as he entered. The sudden sense of crisis made him alert instantly. The sound was hidden in the night rain and was not noticed by anyone.

The contest was going on in the dark, and at the moment when the lamp was on, Huyan Uwei bound the man's arms. Huyan Uwei staggered into the hall with the wine bottle in his arms. Just as he entered, he was grabbed by his arms by a pair of thick hands. The sense of crisis made him instantly alert. The golden bottle that he was holding in his hand slammed on the floor with a clang, and the crisp sound was hidden in the night rain without anyone noticing.

The contest was carried out in the dark, and the moment the lamp was lit, Huyan Uwei bound the man's arms, his puffed cheeks were accompanied by squinted eyes, how could he be seen half drunk, the candlelight swayed in the evening wind , Seeing the person in front of him clearly, Huyan Uwei quickly let go, patted the man's thick chest, with a tone of helplessness after a false alarm.

"Kub—"

"Isn't it telling you that you are in the country of Yan? If it is not necessary, don't come to the post house of Honglu Temple to find me. There are many eyeliners here. Since we have signed a treaty with the country of Yan, we should not make it public. It doesn't have your name on it."

Seeing that his Prince Uwe had said so much, Kubu scratched his head and explained awkwardly for a while.

"Seventh Prince, Kubu came to you, just to report—"

Speaking of this, Kubu took two steps forward, and only made a gesture towards Huyan Uwei, "Xia Guo——"

When these words came out, Huyan Uwei's eyes flickered, and he looked in the direction indicated by Kubu, and heard the creaking sound of the wooden door opening and closing in the inner room, and a masked man in black came out from inside, and he couldn't see his face clearly , but it is not easy to be able to maintain a magnanimity on the territory of others.

The appearance of the man only made Huyan Uwei raise his eyebrows. Although he didn't intend to get involved with Xia Guo's forces, but now that the guests had arrived, he wouldn't be able to drive out directly. He simply waved his hand at Kubu, and the wooden pegs of the house were fixed , Kubuhou forgot the wind outside the door.

Huyan Uwei was quite calm, picked up the wine bottle that had been knocked down on the ground before, wiped it casually with his cuff, and then continued to reach his lips to peck and drink alone. The arrival of the man, or any power of the Xia Kingdom represented behind him, caused any waves in his heart.

The man in black raised his eyebrows, this place is Honglu Temple, and now Xia and Yan Guo are having a lot of trouble at the border, he has never made it clear that he has smeared his past.

"Prince Huyan is very interested——"

"I'm here tonight on behalf of the Yan Kingdom, and I don't want to engage in hypocritical mutual testing with the Seventh Prince." The man in black said here, subconsciously observing Huyan Uwei's reaction, but he still looked pale.

"Let's not hide from the Seventh Prince, I came to you this time because my Xia Kingdom hopes to form an alliance with the Turks!"

Sure enough, when the words came out, the man in black saw the wine bottle in Huyan Uwei's hand shaking, and he didn't agree, but he didn't explicitly refuse either.

The man in black squinted his eyes, and continued his efforts.

"There are disputes on the frontier, and the war is urgent. The champion of the Yan Kingdom is now old and weak, unable to protect the territory of the Yan Kingdom. Now is the best opportunity for our Xia Kingdom and the bordering Turks."

After hearing these words, Huyan Uwei twirled the wine glass and let out a soft voice with great interest.

This somewhat ambiguous attitude greatly boosted the confidence of the man in black, and decisively stated Xia Guotai's strategy to instigate the rebellion against the Turks.

"The Turks are the largest tribe in the Northwest Grassland, why should they bow their heads in front of the Yan State?"

"I have heard that the Turkic cavalry are brave and good at fighting. This time our country Xia and Yan are fighting. If we can borrow [-] cavalry from the Turks, we will be able to defeat the army of the champion of Yan State. At that time, we will enter the Yumen Pass. Then It is only a matter of time before raising troops from the Central Plains to enter the imperial city of Lin'an."

"At that time, the merits will be rewarded, and the Turkic cavalry will naturally make great contributions. Our country Xia is willing to share the world of Yan with the Turks!"

These words are very attractive. After all, what the man in black said is the fish and meat on the case. That is the country of Yan. Even though it is surrounded by other tribes and neighboring countries, the country of Yan is located in the Central Plains with four distinct seasons, and it has fertile land under farming. Land, based on this point alone, the Turks, who are nomads, cannot be compared with the Xia Kingdom, which is located in the northern border with severe cold weather.

Otherwise, why would you be greedy and want to take down the country of Yan?

This is a treasure land that the surrounding tribes have coveted for a long time!
As the man in black said, his pupils overflowed with unconcealable excitement, as if this grand plan was right in front of them. At this moment, the Lin'an land under their feet seemed to be the territory of Xia Kingdom. The meaning of this appearance was reflected in Huyan Uwei In the eyes, the greed in the eyes of the man in black is a trait they are familiar with each other. Huyan Uwe's falcon-like eyes fell on the face of the man in black, but he only snorted and chuckled after a long while.

There was no blood boiling like the man in black thought, Huyan Uwei swallowed the bottle of Lidao wine completely into his throat, then puffed out his cheeks and raised his eyes softly, with a perfunctory apology in his eyes, he waved his hand directly and refused.

"It's a pity—"

"My dear friend, the news may be a bit late. I Huyan Wuwei entered Yan State. In addition to the slack and serious customs clearance jade plate, I also donated [-] prairie horses to Yan State. I killed my white horse mount to show Yan State that I am a Turk. The determination to surrender, not to mention, the Turks and the Yan Kingdom have already signed a leap, do you think I will cooperate with your Xia Kingdom in such a matter as swallowing and dividing the Yan Kingdom?"

Huyan Uwei squinted his eyes. Although it was a question sentence, the tone did not mean to be half-joking.

Never caring about the sudden gloomy gaze of the man in black, Huyan Uwei raised his eyebrows and silently reminded him while playing with the wine bottle in his hand.

"However, my dear friend, you can rest assured that although Turkic has returned to surrender, it does not mean that he will sell his life to Yan. Tonight, the wine is good and the meat is good. The prince was sleepy late at night, and fell asleep after returning to the post. to anything."

"I'm also on the border of the Yan Kingdom, don't worry, my dear friend, I still have this point of morality—"

"Of course," Huyan Uwei raised his eyebrows, and raised his right lip towards the tall Kubu Nunu mouth outside the door.

"Of course, this man doesn't have to believe my promise, but if he wants to seek justice, he has to open his eyes and see clearly. There is not only Kubu outside the door, but this prince is the number one Turkic warrior, so it's better I haven't exercised my muscles in days."

As he said that, Huyan Uwei moved his wrist, and there was the sound of cracking bones, and the momentum was not weak at all.

The man in black stepped back half a step in an instant, and clarified decisively.

"The seventh prince is loyal, brave and loyal. Our Xia country still has the ability to judge people. Otherwise, we wouldn't have come here to cooperate with Prince Uwe."

"but……"

The man in black paused slightly, and took a deep look at Huyan Uwei, as if he had thought of something.

"There are no permanent friends in this world. Maybe tomorrow or the day after that, Prince Huyan will figure it out?"

The muffled laughter was hidden in the black silk, and the pupils of the pupils flashed silk and pride.
