Chapter 159

Rouran's girl is straightforward by nature, if she likes it, she likes it, and she won't worry so much.

After Yu Jiuduo realized that he fell in love with the sixth prince of the Xuan Dynasty, he began to pursue him persistently.

She learned a lot from the girls in the clan. The general, who used to wield guns and swords, even learned how to knit sweaters and knots. Zhuzhu's long hair is braided into various buns, as I heard that girls in the Central Plains are like this.

When the cold winter came, Yu Jiuduo gave Gu Zhi the socks that he had worked so hard to knit for a long time.

Gu Zhi looked into her shining eyes, and said helplessly, "General, your status is so high, there is really no need to do such a thing for me, Gu Zhi is ashamed."

Yu Jiuduo plausibly said: "Zhou Yu hit Huang Gai, one is willing to fight, and the other is willing to suffer. I have knitted it for you. If you don't wear it, it is a waste of my hard work."

"General, why bother..." Gu Zhi said in a low voice.

"Because I like you." This is Yu Jiuduo's confident answer.

She even stuffed the socks into Gu Zhi's hand, and then said with a smile: "I will come to see you again!"

After finishing speaking, she stepped out of the gate and rode her maroon horse towards the way she came.

Her back is slender and thin, but straight and firm. Gu Zhi has never seen such courage and self-confidence in any girl, that kind of light is as bright as the moon between the clouds.

The second day, the third day, the fourth day... Every day she came as scheduled, stood in front of the gate of his house, rolled off the horse with a smile, and talked about what happened throughout the day , Talk about the interesting things you read in the book, and sometimes even just to look at him and say good night.

Gu Zhi knew that he shouldn't give her any thoughts, because they couldn't, because he couldn't.

But this girl was like a ball of flames, approaching him straight away, and she was out of control ever since.

God knows why on that cold and snowy winter night, when she took off her cloak and walked towards him with a smile on her face, why he didn't reject her, didn't push her away when she suddenly stood on tiptoe and hugged his neck, and then Kiss him lightly on the lips.

The calmness and calmness in his mind were suddenly wiped out, and his reason was destroyed by such intimacy to the point where not even a slag remained.

He heard himself say to her in a low voice, "It's not like that."

Then he wrapped his arms around her waist, and pressed her close to him. At the same time, he kissed her lips, which were as soft as apricot blossoms blooming in spring, sweet, tender and fragrant.

At this moment, he suddenly realized that he had put her in his heart for a long time, maybe it was from seeing her slightly childish look of disdain when they first met, maybe it was from the time when she was repeatedly defeated by him but she was unyielding and insisted on catching up. It started when he was with him, maybe it started when she would rather die than surrender on the battlefield and lead troops to fight, maybe it started because she has been persevering, chasing him without scruples, and liking him.

The cold snowflakes were flying all over the sky, but Gu Zhi's heart was burning. Although the winter air was biting, the lover's lips were scorching hot.

In this way, Yu Jiuduo finally broke into Gu Zhi's grassland with a bold attitude like a wild horse.

It has been out of control ever since.

But after the two finally got together, Yu Jiuduo found that Gu Zhi would often be alone in a daze in silence, his thoughts seemed to drift far away.

She would hug his waist and ask him what he was thinking.

Gu Zhi always smiled softly and kissed her forehead, but didn't speak.

Khan trusted this prince from the Xuan Dynasty more and more, especially after he formulated several careful strategic plans and assisted Yu Jiuduo to defeat several divided nomads around him, Rouran's power gradually grew. The online influence is not the same as before.

Gu Zhi has gained more and more rights. Not only can he freely enter and leave the palace, but even the rights he has are almost the same as those of Rouran nobles.

In addition, Rouran's General Yunhui also fell in love with him. Almost everyone believed that the prince who was sent to Rouran as a proton would probably never return to the Central Plains. The emperor was afraid that he would hinder the throne, so he sent him Coming here, Rouran gave him all the honorable status and lofty treatment, so what reason does he not stay?

Gu Zhi came to Rouran for four years, and the emperor ruled in the Xuan Dynasty for four years.

Things were not as people in the world thought, because the emperor was a mediocre person, so he dismissed the witty and talented sixth prince.The truth is just the opposite. Even though the emperor is young, he is a very courageous king who can stand on his own.

Four years is enough for him to calm down the criticisms in the court, and it is also enough for him to do something to deter the world and become a truly well-deserved king of the Xuan Dynasty.

Once the country is in peace, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the country's business is booming, it is time to solve some long-standing problems.

Four years ago, because of his first accession to the throne, the emperor had no time to deal with border disputes. Looking at the grassland now, Rouran has changed from a small nomad in the past to a big overlord on the grassland today.

Border disturbances still occur from time to time, and almost every time it ends in the surrender of the people of the Xuan Dynasty.

The emperor was naturally dissatisfied, and sent troops from the capital to garrison the border between Xuan Dynasty and Rouran, so in another small friction, Rouran finally failed to please as usual, but was beaten by the elite soldiers sent by the capital. He abandoned his armor and suffered a crushing defeat.

Rouran naturally also became nervous, the attitudes of both sides were very tough, and the war was about to break out.

Gu Zhi participated in some previous battles, but this time, in order to avoid suspicion, he took the initiative to petition to stay in the capital of Rouran, and did not go into battle with the army.

One side is abandoning his homeland, and the other side is Rouran who regards him like a member of his tribe.

Even if we are in a dilemma, we have to wait and see what happens and stay out of it.

As the general of Rouran, Yu Jiuduo naturally led troops to fight against the enemy. After witnessing the strength of Xuan Dynasty's army with her own eyes, she finally understood what Gu Zhi said in the past.

She has been proud and complacent for too long, thinking that she has led an invincible army, but in fact everything is just as Gu Zhi said, because Xuan Dynasty never really paid attention to Rouran, nor sent the best army to deal with Rouran.Now facing such a powerful and battle-tested team, Yu Jiuduo finally had to admit that Rouran would definitely suffer heavy casualties in this battle.

But the greatest advantage of the nomads on the grasslands is not how good they are at fighting and riding and shooting, but their innate spirit of not admitting defeat.

Even at the last moment before death, Rouran will never back down.

Therefore, this battle is not only a huge challenge for Rouran, but also the most difficult battle in the Xuan Dynasty for so many years.

Without that accident, this war would undoubtedly have lasted for at least half a year. However, due to that very timely accident, the war came to an abrupt end after just over a month.

And this accident is not only Xuan Chao's surprise, Rou Ran's disastrous defeat, but also a fatal blow to Yu Jiuduo.

That day, Khan was sitting in the imperial city playing chess with Gu Zhi, when spies from outside came to report that the Xuan Dynasty had already conquered Mogu and invaded Rouran's territory.

Khan frowned instantly, and finally made a decision to recruit the Chile tribe, who had never participated in the war, into the war.

His strategy is very ingenious, that is to organize the captive Xuan Dynasty Han people, led by Rouran elite soldiers pretending to be Han people, to attack the range of Chile, so that they have the illusion that Xuan Dynasty not only wants to attack Rouran, but also To wipe out all the ethnic groups on the grassland and become the overlord of the entire grassland.

The Chile people are much more fierce than the Rouran people. Once they are attacked like this, they will undoubtedly reach a consensus with Rouran to attack the Xuan Dynasty together.

At that time, whether the Xuan Dynasty can win the battle is really an unpredictable result.

It's a pity that Khan's military order has not yet been issued, Gu Zhi has already stood up gracefully, admiring his strategy, and unhurriedly throwing a chess piece at the spy by the door.

The chess piece was unbiased, it just hit the acupoint of the person at the door, and the spy fell to the ground.

Khan suddenly turned around and looked at him, "Sixth Prince?"

Gu Zhi didn't move, stood on the spot with a smile on his lips, and bowed to him very politely: "Over the years, Gu Zhi has thanked Khan for taking care of him, and now he is about to return to his homeland, so let's say goodbye to Khan first. It’s just that before I leave, I hope Khan will forgive me for offending me so much.”

His attitude is still so gentle and meaningful, his elegance is just like the elegant young man in all novels and plays, except for the bottomless strategy and scheming in those eyes.

Khan trembled and said angrily: "Are you still devoted to the Xuan Dynasty? You regard it as your homeland, but your relatives pushed you out with their own hands and exiled you to a foreign land! In their eyes, You are just a person who will affect the emperor's future and endanger the country. If it weren't for me, if it wasn't for Rouran, do you think you would live so comfortably today? Gu Zhi, as long as you have a little heart, you will never repay your kindness! "

Gu Zhi laughed, and still said in such a gentle and deep voice: "I thank Khan for giving me such great importance to me and giving me such great rights, but I have never forgotten that I have Han blood flowing in my body, let alone.... He paused for a moment, "Khan is only interested in my talents and skills. As you said, you let me realize what power means, and you let me go to the battlefield to show my skills, but it's not because of trust." , Otherwise, you wouldn’t have secretly sent your best Death Guard mixed army to monitor me.”

Khan's complexion changed, but he didn't speak.

"So in the end, even if Xuanchao pushed me out, Rouran didn't necessarily regard me as one of her own. If I were a useless person with no ability, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to live so peacefully today. Khan didn't Treat me as a clansman, just a businessman doing business, I will contribute, you will contribute money, that's all."

Khan sneered and said: "So you knew it a long time ago, but you have been pretending to be crazy, and you are waiting for today? But you'd better think about it, if you continue to do this business, Rouran can always treat you as a guest of honor; but if you If you fight back, you will be Rouran's biggest enemy at that time, and even if you have made great contributions to the Xuan Dynasty, the emperor may not buy your account. You were afraid of him at the beginning. Won't it end up worse than being exiled from a foreign race?"

Gu Zhi smiled faintly, "Khan misunderstood. The reason why the emperor sent me to be a proton was indeed for his reasons, but it was not what Khan thought. It's like if one day the place farthest from you suddenly Rebellion, is Khan willing to send his most trusted confidant to rehabilitate, or send someone who has long been dissatisfied?"

As soon as this remark came out, Khan had an epiphany.

Gu Zhi continued: "As the saying goes, you can raise soldiers for a thousand days and use them for a while. The emperor has sent me to Rouran for so many years, and now it's time for me to serve my motherland."

From the beginning to the end, he was the emperor's best brother. The reason why he was sent to Rouran as a proton was not what everyone thought. He was afraid that he would endanger the throne and make great achievements, but hoped that he could be in the shortest possible time. Go deep into the enemy's interior within time, and then lay the groundwork for today's war.

Although Rouran has now become stronger with his help, there is only a crack in the core, and the breach is imminent.

Gu Zhi's last words were: "How offending."

But before Khan was taken down by his people, the last words he said were: "Gu Zhi, if Yu Jiuduo finds out that you betrayed her, he will hate you for the rest of his life!"

The calm and calm person finally changed his face, and the smile on his lips disappeared completely.

His eyes became unfathomable, filled with the mist of the night, just looking at the sky and mountains in the distance like this, it was as if a hole had been opened in his heart, and the wind was blowing in.

Sooner or later she will know.

That's why he insisted on refusing to accept her at the beginning, but in the end he couldn't control his heart and was with her.

When Yu Jiuduo was still struggling on the battlefield, an envoy from the capital suddenly came from the army. She returned to the big tent, but heard the news that shocked her.

The troops of the Xuan Dynasty attacked the palace from behind the capital, and Khan was captured.

She grabbed the messenger by the collar and asked in a trembling voice: "Where is the prince? Where is the sixth prince? And what about Khan's elite soldiers? So many people stationed in the capital, how could it be breached overnight?"

The emissary tremblingly said: "If you go back to the general, the son was imprisoned in heaven, the well was poisoned, and all the soldiers fainted from the poison."

"What about the Sixth Prince?" She almost yelled at the man impatiently.

"The Sixth Prince was taken away by the people of the Xuan Dynasty, saying that he had betrayed the Xuan Dynasty, and he wanted to bring him back to the capital for the emperor himself to order."
