There is a kind of scholar

Chapter 737
Su Xian made a few polite remarks, turned sideways to Nalan Jie and said:

"Little prince, long time no see."

"Brother Su, it's been a hard journey."

Nalanjie returned the gift with a very standard posture and spoke fluent Central Plains Mandarin. If he were left in the Central Plains, he would be an authentic Central Plains scholar.

King Hunxie couldn't help but feel happy when he saw them "respecting each other as guests". He stood up from his chair and said with a hearty smile:

"Hahahaha... Yes, Su Hou is a rare talent in Daliang, and his integrity is also good. If you two join forces, this thing will definitely succeed! I wonder how sure Su Hou is?"

"..."

The "Suhou" in his mouth refers to Su Xian. Su Xian's surname is Su and he has the title of Marquis of Fanyang County. People with higher status can call him "Suhou".

"Seventy percent!"

Su Xian made a conservative estimate.

"it is good!"

King Hunxie clapped his hands, his voice was particularly loud, with a strong prairie style, and he said boldly: "The [-]% certainty is already extremely high, it is worth fighting for it."

"When things are done, I will be crowned a great treasure. When it comes to following the dragon's merits, Suhou will be at the top of the list. I wonder what Suhou wants? I will accept everything when the time comes."

"..."

Su Xian secretly wondered, King Hunxie started to reward people based on their merits even before they even said anything about it?Is there something wrong with this person's brain?
He quickly shook his head, thinking that it was unlikely, this is the famous Hunxie King, it is impossible to make such a low-level mistake, there must be a reason for his words.

Nalanjie also realized that what he said was wrong, but on second thought, he guessed that King Hunxie was trying to win over Su Xian and stabilize their cooperation. This was a common method, so he smiled and said:
"Brother Su, don't be polite. If this is successful, Brother Su will indeed be the first to take the lead. No matter what Brother Su wants, my father will satisfy him!"

"My princess heard that you Central Plains people like to eat cheese? So I decided to give you [-] sheep so that you can eat every day!" Nalan Yan was also making noises from the side.

"..."

Black lines appeared on Su Xian's forehead. He smiled bitterly and thanked them for their kindness, and then declined. It was too early to discuss these matters now. Time was running out, so it was better to get down to business first.

King Hunxie waved his hand and said cheerfully:
"I, the King, have no words to say. Once you have said it, you must do it! Even if Suhou doesn't want the reward, I will force it on you. You can't escape."

"Then I'll thank the prince in advance!" Su Xian's face moved slightly, feeling that there was something wrong with what he said.

"Brother Su, this is right." Nalanjie was very satisfied with this, thinking that his father had done a good job, so that he could reflect the bold and simple style of their prairie people.

"You must also accept my ten thousand sheep."

Nalanyan emphasized "not to be outdone".

Although there is "enmity" between her and Su Xian, as a prairie native, she is still simple and forthright in the face of big right and wrong, just like her father, King Hunxie.

Behind Su Xian, Yan Dashan, Yang Zhilan, Guan Ping, Tang Shujing and others all smiled, thinking that the Hunxie King of Liao Kingdom was really good at being a man, and Su Xian was right to cooperate with him!

"Cough cough!"

King Hunxie cleared his throat, with a serious and serious look on his face. He glanced at Su Xian and Nalan Yan and said loudly: "I will reward you... as a gift to someone!"

"..."

As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the living room.

Everyone almost didn't understand the meaning of this statement.

Reward you...give it to someone?

What the hell?

Give Su Hyun to someone?Consider him a "gift"?Can this still be called a "reward"?No matter how you look at it, it looks like... you are treating a prisoner!

How can you give a hero as a gift to someone? What is that if he is not a prisoner or a prisoner?
That's right!

This must be what King Hunxie means!
In Su Xian's mind, he originally thought that King Hunxie was a fickle person, a "not very firm pro-Liang faction", and he was very wary.

Now listening to King Hunxie's words is tantamount to confirming the suspicion in his heart.

This can't help but make Su Xian's hair stand on end.

What does King Hunxie want to do?After Su Xian helped him ascend to the throne, did he arrest Su Xian backhand?Want to give it away?To whom?
If King Hunxie really has this idea, Su Xian will definitely not help him ascend to the throne. Then the plan that has been brewing for so long will also be ruined, and the peace of the Central Plains region for the next hundred years will be gone.

In fact, Su Xian had anticipated this situation for a long time, but there was no solution. He could only take it one step at a time.

The moment he set off north to Liao, Su Xian knew that the trip would be dangerous, which was why he didn't let Tang Shujing go with him.

The trip to the north was to overthrow the Liao Kingdom. It was impossible to do such a big thing without taking some risks.

But he didn't expect that the first danger he encountered was actually brought by King Hunxie, who was his ally...

In the face of the crisis, Su Xian was extremely calm. It seemed that this cooperation was about to be suspended. The next thing to consider was how to escape safely.

Behind him, Yang Zhilan, Yan Dashan and others secretly made preparations.

……

On the other side, the smile at the corner of Nalanjie's mouth suddenly stiffened, and he also sensed the special meaning of King Hunxie's words.

It doesn't look good. King Hunxie actually wants to give Su Xian away. Are these simple and generous prairie people?As a son of man, Nalanjie felt very ashamed.

Nalan Yan was confused. Seeing that everyone suddenly stopped talking, she couldn't help but curiously and urgently took King Hunxie's hand and asked: "Father, who are you giving it to?"

"..."

King Hunxie turned his head and saw that his precious daughter was both "anxious" and "coquettish". He smiled bitterly in his heart, but a smile of relief and love appeared on his face. He turned to look at Su Xian and said loudly:
"You young people are just so anxious. It doesn't matter. I won't wait until later. I will give you to that person right away. What do you think, Su Hou?"

"..."

After Su Xian heard this, his pupils shrank suddenly, and now?To whom?
Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed through his mind, and he understood, Nalanxiong!King Hunxie must have wanted to give him to Nalanxiong, and then take credit for his favor, in exchange for a way out!
King Hunxie was already wavering and a non-firm pro-Liang faction. For the sake of his own life, he did not hesitate to betray Su Xian to Nalan Xiong. All this is reasonable.

Yan Dashan, Yang Zhilan and others secretly held weapons and stared at King Hunxie. Once they found that something was wrong, they were ready to take the lead...

Nalanjie frowned secretly and couldn't stand it anymore. He advised in a deep voice from the side: "Father, you must not do it. Brother Su has come all the way, how can we..."

King Hunxie was very puzzled, turned his head and glared at Nalanjie and shouted loudly:
"Shut up! I am Yan'er's father, so why can't I still make the decision on her marriage? As an elder brother, why don't you congratulate Yan'er on getting a good son-in-law, but instead obstruct her?"

"..."

As soon as the words fell, the living room became completely silent again.

Everyone looked at each other.

What does Hunxie King mean?
What he was talking about was...Nalan Yan's marriage?
Then he just said that he wanted to reward Su Xian and give it to someone. Could that person be Nalan Yan?
In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on Nalan Yan, with blank faces and different expressions.

King Hunxie went on to say:
"A talent like Su Hou is a perfect match for Yan'er! After I am crowned the great treasure, how about I grant you a marriage? Hahahaha!"

"You young people, if you really can't wait, you can tonight...well, according to your Chinese saying, you can go to the church to get married, and then enter the bridal chamber!"

"..."

After Su Xian heard this, he slowly opened his mouth, and his heart repeatedly screamed "hold the grass". After thinking about it for a long time, he realized that King Hunxie actually meant this.

He actually wanted to bring Su Xian and Nalan Yan together.

Leave Su Xian to be the consort in Liao!
What a big misunderstanding!
What a big oolong!
Nalanjie was in a daze for a long time, but he soon realized that this was a good thing!If Su Xian marries Nalan Yan, wouldn't he and Su Xian be relatives?

Yang Zhilan, Yan Dashan, Guan Ping and others breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. This matter was not what they thought at all. Fortunately!They were not afraid of fleeing, but they were afraid that Su Xian would be harmed...

After Su Xian shouted "hold the grass" in his heart, he quickly became happy again. If this was a misunderstanding, it meant that the plan could still go ahead!

The peace in the Central Plains region for the next hundred years was stabilized again.

He was feeling happy when suddenly he felt a pain in the soft flesh of his waist and grinned.

Looking sideways, it turned out to be Tang Shujing. Her little hand was pinching hard. Su Xian looked sideways, with a warning light shining in his bright eyes.

Su Xian woke up instantly. This was indeed a misunderstanding, but if you think about it carefully, it is also a hidden worry!

According to his idea, after supporting King Hunxie to ascend to the throne of God, he could return to Daliang after success, but King Hunxie wanted to keep him in the Liao Kingdom as Nalan Yan's consort!

How can this work.

"No!" Su Xian refused without hesitation.

"No!" Nalan Yan also expressed her attitude at this moment, and the two said in unison.

"..."

Nalan Yan never thought that her father, who had been talking for a long time, was actually talking about her marriage?

And... she also appointed Su Xian to be her husband!
In fact, she didn't have a good impression of Su Xian. She remembered that a long time ago, she secretly sneaked into Youzhou, Daliang, with her troops, and was finally caught by Su Xian by the tail.

And last time, Su Xian locked her in a small dark room. The feeling was too painful. She has not even avenged this revenge!
Later, it was only because she cooperated with Su Xian to overthrow the Liao Kingdom that she magnanimously put aside all her prejudices and prepared to give Su Xian [-] sheep after the success...

However, the personal feud between her and Su Xian is still there!
Su Xian wants to be her husband?

no way!

However, when she expressed dissatisfaction with this, Su Xian actually said "no"?
Nalan Yan was immediately angry, looking down on her. You Su Xian is just a mere county prince, but she will be the princess of the Liao Empire from now on!
Su Xian automatically ignored Nalan Yan's unkind gaze, looked at King Hunxie and said:
"Your Majesty, I already have a common wife, and I am married to the Tang family. I already have a fiancée. She is really not a good match for the princess. Please tell me, Your Majesty!"

"..."

Nalan Jie realized what he was doing and started admonishing him. In addition, Nalan Yan played the princess's temper and claimed that she didn't like Su Xian... In the end, King Hunxie had to compromise and said:

"Since that's the case, let's let this matter go and pretend that the king has never said anything."

"Your Majesty is wise." Su Xian breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time secretly increased his vigilance, and then said: "Time is pressing, let's talk about business first."

"Alright."

"..."

People like King Hunxie are old, treacherous, thick-faced, and difficult to restrain by ordinary worldly rules. When you come into contact with such people, you can't even believe a single punctuation mark in their words!

When he said, "This matter is over," did he really give it up?Maybe, but Su Xian didn't believe it at all. King Hunxie would definitely do tricks again in the future.

But even so, Su Xian plans to continue to cooperate, study the current situation, propose targeted solutions, and finally assign tasks...

It has the meaning of "seeking skin from a tiger".

Su Xian, what is this for?
Because Nalan Festival is still trustworthy.

In addition, once this matter is successful, it will have a profound impact on future generations, and it is worth Su Xian's risk. If this matter is really successful, everything is worth it.

They discussed for a long time and finally finalized a set of action plans——

King Hunxie was responsible for secretly contacting the demobilized soldiers, while Su Xian and Nalan Jie were responsible for finding the last treasure map, cracking it, finding the treasure, and digging out the weapons and armor inside.

Then, he secretly armed the demobilized soldiers, took advantage of the Liao army's southward invasion of the empty space behind Daliang, and attacked Yacheng in one fell swoop. He used force to force the current Liao Emperor to take over the throne of Hunxie King, take control of the court, and decide the world in one fell swoop!
This is their plan.

It's simple.

Not simple.

The plan was decided, King Hunxie acted resolutely and immediately went down to make arrangements. Before he left, he looked back at Su Xian and said with a smile: "It's a pity that Suhou doesn't stay in Daliao!"

"..."

Su Xian's expression didn't change, but the vigilance in his heart deepened.

Nalanjie was very attentive. He saw Su Xian's hidden worries and immediately promised in a deep voice: "Brother Su, no matter whether this matter can be done or not, I will help you return to Daliang safely in the end."

"Thank you, young prince... Let's not talk about this anymore. What is the situation of the last treasure map?" Su Xian shook his head.

"I have discovered the exact location of the last treasure map, but that place is heavily defended. We tried many times but failed in the end." Nalanjie shook his head.

"Where is that place?" Su Xian was surprised.

"The Royal Court!" Nalanjie said slowly.

The so-called "Imperial Court" actually refers to the palace city where the Liao Emperor lived. In more popular terms, it is the imperial palace.

"Is there a super master patrolling the royal court?" Su Xian frowned, feeling that this matter was a bit tricky. After all, the royal court of Liao was also the royal palace of a country. How could it be so easy to sneak into?
"This...I'm not sure, maybe..." Nalanjie glanced at Yang Zhilan and others behind Su Xian, and said, "Brother Su's subordinates may be qualified."

Su Xian immediately turned sideways, looked at Yang Zhilan and ordered:

"Zhilan, go there yourself and test it out first. If there are no super masters in the royal court, you can sneak in to steal the map and get some information... If you can't sneak in, return as soon as possible, and we will find another way."

"Yes."

Yang Zhilan asked to confirm the location and then turned and left.

Su Xian has Yan Dashan and Guan Ping beside her, and there are more than two hundred masters outside, so she can rest assured.

After she left, Su Xian took out the two sheepskin treasure maps he had obtained, spread them out on the table, and spliced ​​them into one piece. Everyone gathered their heads around them and began to study them.

This treasure map looks like a map. Most of the mapped areas are in the Liao Kingdom, and also include some prefectures and counties in Daliang, such as Youzhou.

But there are only lines in the picture, as well as the trend of mountains and rivers, without any written records, and there are no other strange symbols and marks.

Su Xian and others studied for a long time and finally came to a conclusion:
"We still have to wait for the third treasure map. Once the pieces are complete, we may be able to get clues to the solution!"
