Chapter 18 Chapter Eighteen

Tuo Lei and Princess Minghui approached the golden tent, just in time to hear Genghis Khan scolding people in the tent: "Huh, what you say is more benevolent and righteous, and less killing. This is just a pedantic opinion! If I don't kill the enemy! If you are so scared, how can you make the Quartet subdue? Huh, I am ordered by the heavens, the world has never been unified, and I will not die even if I want to die! If you don’t want to be treated, you go, you go! I don’t believe it, if I don’t want you, I will die!” Amidst the scolding, an old man with a medicine bag on his back came out of the tent.

Tuo Lei was puzzled, and asked the Golden Horde warrior on duty, "What's going on?" Bushido said: "This man is Liu Yuanzong, a famous doctor of the Han people. It was not easy to invite him to treat Da Khan." Tuo Lei said, "Why did the sweat drive him away again?" Bushido said: "I heard that he advised the Great Khan to do more benevolence and justice and less killing, so that he can have peace of mind and prolong his life. The Great Khan didn't listen, so he scolded him." Tuo Lei was taken aback, and said, "Isn't even this famous doctor afraid to prescribe medicine?" The samurai nodded silently.

Tuolei and Princess Minghui hurried into the golden tent, only to see Genghis Khan panting and closing his eyes, presumably after cursing, he was very tired.Genghis Khan's concubine and three sons Shuchi, Chagatai and Okuotai surrounded him. Genghis Khan's concubine whispered in his ear: "Khan, your favorite Alhai Farewell and Tuolei are here!" Tuo Lei stepped forward and said, "Father, my sister and I are here, how are you?" Genghis Khan slowly opened his eyes, and suddenly shouted again: "What, are you afraid that I won't be able to survive? I want to turn the world into a Mongolian pasture. Who dares to defy my will? I must still live !"

Poor Genghis Khan became crazy just because he felt that his life was about to disappear. After yelling like this, he immediately passed out again. The elder prince said in a low voice: "Looking at this, I'm afraid the profuse khan will not be successful. Let's ask him to order the funeral!" Wo Kuotai said, "I wonder if the sweat will wake up?" Shu Chidao: "I am the eldest son, of course I should inherit the Khan position!" Chagatai said: "Bah! You deserve it!" Genghis Khan seemed to hear someone quarreling in a daze, and opened his eyes again.

The two oldest princes knelt down and said: "Your golden body like a mountain, if it collapses, who will rule your Great Khanate? Your golden body like a pillar and beam, if it falls, your divine power will be destroyed." Who will hold the banner high? Among your four sons, who will be in power? Your sons, brothers, subjects, concubines, etc., please leave us the imperial decree, Great Khan." Genghis Khan sighed dejectedly, and said to himself: "Am I really going to die?" At this time, he was a little more sober, and he already knew that he could not hold back the god of death.

Everyone didn't dare to say anything, Genghis Khan's eyes slowly passed over the four sons, sighed, and said: "Do you still remember the story of how I taught you how to fold arrows? You should gather together like a bunch of arrows , the enemy can’t break you. Now that I’m not dead, you’re quarreling with each other, and I can’t feel at ease even after I’m dead.” The four sons answered “Yes” in unison, but Chagatai and Jochi still glared at each other. It is obvious that the hostility has not subsided. It turned out that Jochi's mother was captured by Genghis Khan's enemy Meriji tribe, and Jochi was born on the way back after his mother was released. Therefore, his brothers said that he had "unknown origin" and did not regard him as the eldest brother. look at.In particular, Chagatai was even more dissatisfied with him, calling him a "bastard" several times in person.Just now when Genghis Khan was in a coma, Jochi wanted to inherit the throne as the eldest son, but Chagatai immediately reprimanded him as "unworthy".Genghis Khan just woke up at that time and heard them all.

Genghis Khan thought to himself: "If Shuchi is made a sweat, his brothers will definitely not accept him. Chagatai is very good at fighting, but he is very domineering. If he is made a sweat, it may cause civil strife. Wo Kuotai has a loyal personality. , the most supported by his subordinates, but he is not smart enough, if he is made a sweat at this time, I am afraid it will be a disaster rather than a blessing for him." You must know that although Wo Kuotai is supported by his subordinates, the army on the Liupanshan road is led by Prince Zhen. throne.Therefore, although Genghis Khan wanted Wo Kuotai to be his successor, he also considered the inappropriate time and place.

Finally Genghis Khan thought of Tuo Lei, who was his beloved young son. "Tuo Lei is very capable, but he is the youngest, and his prestige has not yet been established. It is best for him to help Wo Kuotai, but it is not appropriate to make him a sweater." Genghis Khan hesitated, took a sip of ginseng soup, and said: "The world is very big. If you tie the world, you will each receive a khanate, so there is no need to quarrel." Chagatai said: "What Daddy said is true. But the Han people have two sayings: 'There are no two suns in the sky, and there are no two kings in the people.' These words seem to make sense."

Genghis Khan frowned and made up his mind, and said: "The leader should be supported by the majority of people. I was the Great Khan when I was unanimously recommended by the chiefs of all ministries at the Onan River meeting. This rule is very strict. Well, it should be established as a legal system. From generation to generation, we will always abide by it." The two oldest princes said: "Please give detailed instructions to the Great Khan." Because this is just a principle, and no specific issues have been touched. Genghis Khan said: "Okay, listen: after I die, you will transport my body back to Helin, and within three months, call all chiefs, princes, and generals to hold a meeting. Liertaihui' ("Kuriertai" in Mongolian means "everyone with power".), Kuriltai will uphold my will, elect the successor Great Khan, and the new Great Khan will Before launching, Tuo Lei supervises the country!"

Chagatai was disappointed when he heard Genghis Khan's will.What is especially disturbing is that not only the position of the Great Khan has not been determined, but he also has no role in "supervising the country".But precisely because the position of the Great Khan is still undecided, there is still a glimmer of hope for him. Ambitious people always overestimate themselves, Chagatai thought to himself: "I have made the most contribution to the war, princes, chiefs, which one is not afraid of me? In the Kuriltai meeting, as long as there are a few capable people If people help me, those chieftains and princes will follow suit. The throne of the Great Khan is in my pocket after all.” Genghis Khan’s will cannot be changed, and Chagatai wanted it as he wished, so he did not want to take the risk of launching a mutiny to eradicate it. Wo Kuo Tai and Tuo Lei.

Everyone was listening attentively to Genghis Khan's will, with happy or worried expressions on their faces depending on their interests.Only Princess Minghui has nothing to do with the will, and she only cares about her dying father. Genghis Khan was particularly sensitive during this "return to the light". He saw the crystal teardrops in the corners of Princess Minghui's eyes, and felt sour in his heart. Before I die, they are fighting each other." Genghis Khan felt a little guilty, and called out in a low voice, "Farewell My Concubine Al Hai!" Princess Minghui said, "Father, I am here." Genghis Khan stroked her hand and said, "I'm sorry I couldn't agree to your last request, Are you still blaming me?" Princess Minghui knew that he was referring to her marriage with Prince Zhen, so he was already a bit regretful when he said that.Princess Minghui didn't know how to answer, she couldn't help her tears, she choked up and said, "Father, I'll let you do what you want." Genghis Khan said, "You don't have to be sad, after I die, your fourth brother Tuolei will definitely Take care of you, let Tuo Lei decide for you." There is something in the words, that is, to leave Princess Minghui's marriage to Tuo Lei. It must be known that Genghis Khan had to use the troops of the Prince of Zhen at this time, so he could not say it clearly.But if the situation changes in the future and the value of being a prince disappears, Genghis Khan will not have to insist on this marriage that his daughter does not want.However, Genghis Khan is also unpredictable how the situation will become in the future, so it can only be handed over to Tuo Lei.These few words of his are tantamount to hinting to Tuo Lei: "If you still want to use Prince Zhen in the future, then you can't let the girl regret the marriage." Princess Minghui understood her father's words, and cried, "Father, you can't die!" Genghis Khan sighed and said, "Now I understand that people are always going to die! I believe that the whole world will become Mongols." It's a pity that I can't see it this day!" The voice of the words became weaker and weaker, and the generation of arrogance finally turned his back on him. Princess Minghui burst into tears, and Chagatai said, "Don't disturb people's hearts by crying, we still have to discuss important matters." At that moment, the princes, concubines, generals and others held a temporary meeting in the tent to discuss how to hold a funeral for Genghis Khan, And whether to stop or continue the military operation to attack gold and so on.Due to different interests in the meeting, it was inevitable that there would be another quarrel. Although Prince Zhen couldn't understand the meaning of the few words Genghis Khan said to Princess Minghui when he was dying, he still felt that the "big event" was not good.First, Tuo Lei had always been at odds with him, and now Tuo Lei supervises the country, which is not good for him; second, after Genghis Khan died, according to Mongolian customs, although he did not have to observe filial piety for three years like the Han people, his marriage to Princess Minghui was at least It will also be put aside until the new Khan succeeds to the throne.Of course he knew that Princess Minghui didn't like him, and the longer the marriage was put on hold, the worse it would be for him. Chagatai quietly pulled Prince Zhen aside, and said: "Sooner or later, the Kingdom of Jin will be in our pocket. In my opinion, it is better for you to return to the motherland. Everything is as you wish." These few words were too obvious, no matter how stupid Prince Zhen was, he could understand what he meant.Chagatai proposed an exchange condition, as long as he helped Chagatai obtain the Khan position, Chagatai could agree to any of his requests, and the marriage with Princess Minghui was of course not a problem. Prince Zhen said: "Okay, I am in command of this military route, no matter whether you have any objections or not, I am determined to lead the way." Chagatai said: "That's right, once the Great Khan died, the soldiers had no intention of fighting. We should also let them go back to send the funeral to the Great Khan, and let them express their condolences to the Great Khan." Ministers, ministers, and even Tuolei, even if some people disagree, they dare not object.So Prince Zhen took his entourage of warriors, and immediately walked out of the golden tent, ready to rush back to the front line of Liupan Mountain, and ordered the squadron. It was already the next morning.Let's say that when Yang Wan woke up and didn't see Princess Minghui coming back, she felt a little uneasy, so she walked out of the tent and took a walk on the nearby mountain side to observe the movement of the golden tent secretly. Unexpectedly, she didn't expect Princess Minghui, but first met Prince Zhen who hurried out from the golden tent. Prince Zhen had important affairs to deal with, so he didn't pay attention to her at first.But his two accompanying warriors noticed Yang Wan. These two warriors fought against her on the night Yang Wan assassinated Yu Yizhong. Although Yang Wan changed her attire, her figure could not be changed. From the outline of her face, one could vaguely see the shadow of the assassin that night. Those two warriors became very suspicious, they immediately stepped forward and asked, "Who are you?" Yang Wan replied calmly: "I am Princess Minghui's maid!" Prince Zhen didn't pay attention to her at first, but when he heard that she was Princess Minghui's maid, he noticed her too. When Prince Zhen saw that she was a Han woman, he became suspicious without realizing it, and said, "How can Princess Minghui use a Han woman as her maid? I think you are impersonating me, right?" Yang Wan said: "Princess Minghui is in the tent, if you don't believe me, you can ask her!" Prince Zhen squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "This daughter looks good." The two warriors said: "Marshal, this daughter seems to be the assassin of that night!" Yang Wan panicked in her heart, but she still didn't reveal her expression, she said: "I am indeed Princess Minghui's maid, please ask the Marshal to find out!" Prince Zhen sneered and said, "Are you scaring me with Minghui? Well, even if you are really her maid, so what? I can't punish you? Minghui takes in Han women. You shouldn't do it!" Having said this, he suddenly turned hard and shouted: "Don't worry, take her down!" It turned out that Prince Zhen was angry because of Princess Minghui's indifference; secondly, he coveted Yang Wan's beauty.That's why he was looking forward to an excuse so that he could take her captive. The two warriors shouted "De Ling!" They both jumped up, the warrior in black came first, and grabbed Yang Wan's pipa bone.Yang Wan knows that his wrestling skills are amazing, how can she let him catch him?The next Panlong walked around, waved his sleeves and brushed towards the warrior's face.Hearing a "chi", Yang Wan's sleeve was torn off, and the corner of the warrior's eye was also hit by the sleeve, his eyes were burning with pain, and tears flowed unconsciously.This ruthless grabbing move was also solved by Yang Wan. It was too late, and soon, the warrior in yellow shirt had rushed to follow, Yang Wan drew his sword out of its sheath, and scolded: "You are so bold, you dare to deceive me! Look at the sword!" The warrior said: "The marshal has an order. Are you the maid of the princess!" Raising the shield with his left hand, he blocked Yang Wan's sword with a "dang", and the long knife in his right hand immediately moved in, slashing Yang Wan's ankle.Prince Zhen shouted: "Don't hurt her, I want to live!" The warrior replied: "Yes!" The blade raised, trying to force Yang Wan to abandon the sword. Unexpectedly, Yang Wan's swordsmanship is unpredictable, even if this warrior fights with all his strength, he may only be able to maneuver, not to mention he has scruples and changes his moves temporarily.At the place where the sword light flashed, the warrior let out an "ouch" and jumped three steps backwards.It turned out that the left arm had been struck by a sword.Fortunately, he had armor to protect him from injury.But the coat was scratched, and the bronze mirror of the body was broken again, which is already quite a surprise! The warrior in black made a move with Yang Wan, recognized her family, and shouted: "That's right, this daughter is the assassin that night!" He rubbed his eyes, then pulled out the crescent scimitar, Come forward to help your companions. Prince Zhen knew that Yang Wan was very good at this time, so he changed the order again, saying: "I allow you to hurt her, as long as you don't make her crippled!" These two warriors are first-class fighters in the Mongolian army, their abilities are not weak, if Yang Wan fights alone, she can defeat them, but now with one against two, she is inevitably at a disadvantage.Fortunately, the two warriors were ordered not to maim her, so although they could hurt her, they were somewhat cautious. Yang Wan knew that if she continued to fight for a long time, she would definitely suffer losses. In a hurry, she didn't care to disturb the princes and ministers of the golden tent, and immediately shouted: "Princess, princess! Please come out! Someone is bullying me!" Yang Wan fought fiercely with the two warriors on the side of the mountain, about three miles away from Genghis Khan's golden tent, but because she used the inner strength of "transmitting sound into secrets" to send her voice far away, Princess Minghui sat in the golden tent. Among them, it is still faintly audible. At this time, the matters to be discussed by the members of the Golden Tent have roughly been agreed upon. Princess Minghui faintly heard Yang Wan's cry, and was taken aback, and said to Tuo Lei: "Fourth brother, it seems that my maid called me, I'll go out with you to have a look." Tuo Lei said: "Okay. You go out first, and I'll come later." Because Wo Kuotai was just about to talk to him, Tuo Lei needed to wait for a while until Wo Kuotai finished speaking , so he can leave. Princess Minghui rushed over and angrily reprimanded: "Why do you bully my maid!" Prince Zhen sneered and said, "She is suspected of being an assassin. I am the commander-in-chief of the first army, how can I let it go for personal gain?" Princess Minghui was taken aback, and thought: "Yang Wan has changed her disguise, why did they still see it?" But Princess Minghui insisted that there was no real evidence for them to get it, and secondly, she was dragging her head. She backed up, so although she was surprised in her heart, her tone was still strong, and she shouted: "Nonsense, she was always by my side that night, how could she be an assassin!" Prince Zhen sneered and said: "Whether it is true or not, I will not know until I personally interrogate it!" Princess Minghui's complexion changed, and she reprimanded: "How unreasonable, my father just died, you are going to bully me? How dare you disobey my order, do you still have me in your eyes?" Princess Minghui used the word "you", the two warriors were not surprised, they both thought in their hearts: "The marshal and the princess are against each other, we are caught in the middle, it's not wrong!" Look at the prince of the town. Prince Zhen jumped into a rage and shouted angrily: "Okay, you don't dare to catch her, wait for me to catch her!" He was furious, and he didn't think that Yang Wan's ability was much better than him, so he didn't even think about it. So he ran forward to catch Yang Wan. Yang Wan sheathed her sword and dodged it.Prince Zhen didn't know that the other party wanted him, so he rushed forward again, clasped his hands together, and shouted: "See where you are running!" Princess Minghui sneered and said: "He wants to bully you, you should fight him. With me here, don't be afraid of him!" Yang Wan was just waiting for Princess Minghui's words, so she stopped being polite, turned around, swung out her palm, and slapped Prince Zhen crisply and exquisitely.Although it's not considered as a killer, this slap is really serious! One side of Prince Zhen's face was in pain. Since he was born, he was the only one who flattered him. How many times has he been insulted like this?Under the rage, he didn't care about pity and pity, so he drew out his saber and slashed at Yang Wan. Yang Wan could have stabbed him with a sword, but she deliberately pretended to be bullied by him and ran away.It turned out that Tuo Lei had already arrived on horseback at this time, and Prince Zhen had his back to the golden tent, but he didn't know yet. The prince of Zhen was chasing and killing Yang Wan viciously with a knife, Tuo Lei was furious when he saw it, and he slapped his horse to catch up. The prince of Zhen shouted: "Who is it?" The treasured sword of Prince Zhen fell down. Prince Zhen looked back and realized that it was Tuo Lei who knocked down his precious sword.Prince Zhen was shocked and angry, but he didn't dare to attack.Tuo Lei snorted, and said, "Beuli, as a marshal, are you ashamed to bully a weak girl?" Prince Zhen slapped Yang Wan, his face was still burning with pain, but Tuo Lei didn't know it.The prince of the town is in the way of face, and it is because he is suffering that he can't tell. Princess Minghui "the villain will sue first" and shouted: "Fourth brother, you came at the right time, and you can comment on this truth for me. He falsely accused my maid of being an assassin. Isn't this the Tang Dynasty of the barren world! How could my maid go? Assassinate him? What's more, my maid never left my side that night." Prince Zhen held back his anger and argued: "They saw this with their own eyes, how could it be fake?" Princess Minghui called the two warriors over and said, "Is the assassin you saw that night male or female?" The two samurai said: "It's a boy." Princess Minghui said: "Is that kid ugly or handsome?" Yang Wan still didn't remove her make-up that night, her face was smeared with a kind of grass juice that can change the skin color, although it is not ugly, it is also very ugly.The two warriors had no choice but to answer truthfully: "It's an ugly boy." Princess Minghui sneered and said, "Come on! My maid is a beauty! She is not a monster, how can she become an ugly boy?" The two warriors murmured: "The stature is a bit similar, and the skills seem to be similar." Princess Minghui sneered and said, "There are many people with similar stature! Women with high abilities are not uncommon. Which of the female soldiers under my tent can't know martial arts?" Tuo Lei said: "You two take a closer look, see if there is anything suspicious?" The implication is that the similarity of figure is not enough to be relied upon. The two warriors already knew that Tuo Lei was on the side of the princess, so they quickly turned to the wind and said: "It was raining that night, there was no moon or stars, we couldn't see clearly at first. I'm afraid we may have mistaken people. Please forgive me, princess." Princess Minghui sneered and said, "Beli, what else can you say?" Prince Zhen said: "Assassin or not, it doesn't matter for now, but you should never take in Han women." The two warriors did not dare to insist, so Prince Zhen's tone softened a little. Tuo Lei said: "You are blaming Minghui for this. All you know is that the Han people are not allowed to serve as attendants of princes and princesses. But since the Great Khan decided to annex China, this rule has long been changed. We want to make the Han people If you are willing to be used by us, you cannot discriminate against them. There is an example in front of you, isn’t Li Xihao your deputy marshal? The deputy marshal can use Han people, let alone maids?" Prince Zhen was speechless, and said angrily, "You are the supervisor of the country. If you say that, what else can I say?" Tuo Lei didn't want to embarrass him too much, so he said softly: "You are the commander of the first army, and now you have important matters to deal with, so you don't have to worry about such trivial matters. If this Han woman is really suspected, I'll find out for you." Before the Great Khan was elected, the "Jianguo" was the supreme leader of Mongolia. Although Zhen Wangyu was domineering, he did not dare to confront him. , to help Chagatai sit on the throne of the Great Khan, what can I ask for at that time?" Thinking about it this way, he stopped making trouble. After Prince Zhen and his two warriors walked away, Princess Minghui said: "Sister Wan, you have been wronged. Go back and change your clothes, and I will come see you later." One piece of Yang Wan's clothes was torn by the warrior, and there was a lot of dust in the fight, she really needed to change into a new one, so Yang Wan thanked Princess Minghui and turned around the tent dedicated to her. Tuo Lei watched Yang Wan's back, and when she was far away, Fang Shi smiled and said: "You maid, you are indeed very courageous. Yesterday she wanted to take me, and today you dare to offend Prince Zhen. Where did you find it?" This Han girl? Can you tell me now?" Princess Minghui said: "I didn't find it, she came here by herself." Tuo Lei said: "I don't understand this. She is a single woman, why did she run into our army? When did that happen? Why did you take her in?" Princess Minghui said slowly: "It was the night of the assassination. She had nowhere to go, so I had no choice but to take her in. You should understand this, right?" Tuo Lei was taken aback, and said, "Is she really an assassin?" Princess Minghui said: "That's right. However, that night, she didn't intend to assassinate this ugly monster. The person she wanted to kill was Yu Yizhong." Tuo Lei said: "Who is Yu Yizhong?" Princess Minghui said: "It's the guy who pretends to be Li Xihao, it's a long story—" Tuo Lei was eager to know about Yang Wan, so he interrupted Princess Minghui and asked, "Let's talk about Yu Yizhong later, who is this Han girl? If you are willing to take her in, you must have known her for a long time. How did you climb it?" Princess Minghui smiled slightly, and said, "Fourth brother, you've taken a fancy to her, haven't you? But I advise you not to waste your time, because she's already a famous lady!" Tuo Lei was very embarrassed, and said: "Don't be joking, I just want to know her origin. It's not a joke to sneak an assassin into the army!" Princess Minghui said: "Okay, since you don't want to get her idea, then I'll tell you, she is Li Sinan's fiancée, her name is Yang Wan." Tuo Lei was taken aback, and said, "Is she Li Sinan's fiancée?" Princess Minghui smiled and said, "That's right. You should understand this, right? Isn't Li Sinan also your 'answer'?" Tuo Lei was very confused, and said: "Why did Li Sinan's fiancée come to assassinate our deputy marshal? You, since you know her identity, why are you still so kind to her?" It turned out that although Princess Minghui didn't tell Tuo Lei what was on her mind, she couldn't hide from Tuo Lei's eyes the scene of Princess Minghui's intimacy with Li Sinan while hunting on the Kent Mountain that day.In order to protect Li Sinan, Princess Minghui did not hesitate to fall out with Prince Zhen. This was also what he saw with his own eyes.Therefore, when he saw that his younger sister was as close as a sister to his "rival in love", he couldn't help being quite surprised. Princess Minghui smiled and said, "Then, according to your opinion, what should I do to her?" Tuolei said, "I don't know. However, I admire you for being so kind to her now!" Princess Minghui sighed and said: "I understand what you mean, to tell you the truth, I was also jealous of this Miss Yang, and I even had malicious thoughts, wanting to break up their pair of mandarin ducks. But then I thought about it, he is a Han Chinese, and I will never be married to him in this life, so why should I do such a thing that hurts others but does not benefit myself? Besides, in his mind, there is only one Yang Wan. As the saying goes It’s not sweet to say that twisted melons are not sweet, even if I can separate them with my power, his heart will never belong to me. Finally, I figured it out, I should make the person I like happy! That’s why The reason why I took in Miss Yang. To be honest, I am not for her, but for Li Sinan!" Tuo Lei was greatly moved, and said: "Yes. Third sister, you are really the husband of a girl. Li Sinan will definitely be very grateful to you when he finds out." Princess Minghui said: "Fourth Brother, you're wrong again. I didn't do this because I wanted him to be grateful." Tuo Lei said: "I know. But if you don't want him to be grateful, he will also be grateful to you. If you do this, maybe you will help me!" Princess Minghui asked in surprise, "Why?" Tuo Lei laughed and said: "Although we are temporarily stopping our troops now, we will always annex the Central Plains in the future. Li Sinan is a hero among the Han people, if he can be used by me—" It turns out that although Tuo Lei has made friends with Li Sinan, his friendship is not completely selfless, he somewhat wants to take advantage of Li Sinan's intentions.He has decided to deprive the prince of the town of the military power in the future, and he himself will lead the army to conquer the gold and destroy the song.This requires the help of many capable Han Chinese. Princess Minghui shook her head and said: "I know Li Sinan's stubborn temper, I'm afraid he might not be used by you!" Tuo Lei said: "This is a matter for the future, we will talk about it later. But what are you going to do now?" Princess Minghui said: "Are you talking about how to deal with Miss Yang?" Tuo Lei said: "That's right. She is the murderer who assassinated our deputy marshal. Although we suppressed this matter today, we can't suppress it forever!" Princess Minghui said: "Then Yu Yizhong should actually be killed!" Immediately, he told Tuo Lei exactly how Yu Yizhong murdered Li Sinan and his son as Yu Yizhong. Tuo Lei said: "I will kill this guy in the future, but I can't kill him now. So we'd better be careful." Princess Minghui was silent, Tuo Lei only said that she still didn't understand, so he continued to explain to her: "Now the position of Great Khan has not been decided, it will be a battle between Wokuotai and Chagatai according to the situation. I have no intention of being on the throne. The throne, I just want to gain military power. It is more beneficial for us to be the third elder brother (Wo Kuotai), and I am determined to help him. But the Prince Zhen is from Chagatai, and Yu Yizhong is Chagatai’s deputy. If you bring an assassin who once assassinated Yu Yizhong back to Helin, I'm afraid, I'm afraid it will be somewhat inconvenient, and maybe it will be used by the other party as an excuse to attack us. At that time, even the position of the third brother will be affected. .” Princess Minghui sighed and said, "I didn't expect the intrigue between you to be so powerful! So I can only break up with Yang Wan." Tuo Lei said: "Yes. She is Li Sinan's fiancée, and she should go back to find her husband. You can't keep her by your side forever. After she is gone, it will be impossible for others to investigate the case. get up." Princess Minghui said: "Won't they be more suspicious?" Tuo Lei laughed and said, "Would you not lie about her accidental death during the march? Even if others have doubts, it will be hard for you if you can't get witnesses. Besides, after three months, it will be the third brother who will sweat profusely." At that time, the overall situation has been settled, I can kill Yu Yizhong, who would dare to repeat this small case?" Princess Minghui said: "I was reluctant to break up with her, but hearing what you said, it is better to let her go for public or private purposes. But how to send her away?" Tuo Lei said: "I'm a state prison now, it's not easy to let someone go! You told her to change into a man's clothes and come out to see me." Let's talk about Yang Wan changing clothes in the tent, feeling uneasy, Princess Minghui came in and said: "Sister Yang, I want to tell you something, my father is dead!" Yang Wan already knew that Genghis Khan was seriously ill, so she was not surprised.But she is a smart person. Seeing Princess Minghui telling her so solemnly, of course she wanted to know why it was related to her, so she comforted Princess Minghui and said, "Then, is the princess going to turn around and get married with Lin?" Princess Minghui said: "I am in trouble because of this matter. I promised to send you back, but now I don't know when I have to wait." Yang Wandao: "Princess has given me shelter, I am very grateful for this kindness. Now that the princess is going back to Helin, it is inconvenient for me to follow, please allow me to go back to the country." Princess Minghui said: "You and I met each other once, and we are like sisters. To tell you the truth, I really don't want you to leave. But there is always a banquet in the world, and it is inconvenient for me to delay your youth. I hope that once you go back, you will find me soon." Look at your Li Lang." Yang Wan thought to herself: "Actually, the princess is also a hard-working person. It seems that she still misses Brother Nan, but it's a pity that there is nothing I can do to help." Immediately thanked Princess Minghui, and asked: "When will the princess return to Lin?" Princess Minghui said: "Just today." Yang Wan said: "Then I—" Princess Minghui smiled and said: "You don't have to worry, I have already made arrangements for you." This tent was originally reserved for Princess Minghui and her maids. Princess Minghui had planned to come to accompany her father half a month ago to recuperate from illness, so there were all the utensils in the tent, and some of the princess's clothes had also been brought here a long time ago. . Princess Minghui opened a wardrobe and said: "You go back alone, you have to change your clothes again." Yang Wan originally had a set of clothes that Agai gave her, but this set of clothes was already torn, and she didn't bring it with her.Yang Wan was worried that it would be inconvenient for her to walk because she was wearing the costume of a princess maid. At this moment, seeing Minghui took out a set of men's clothes, she was overjoyed and said, "Princess, why did you get ready so early? Do you know I'm leaving today? " Princess Minghui said with a smile: "I often like to pretend to be a man, but you haven't seen it before. This is my hunting suit, can you try to see if it fits?" Princess Minghui was about the same size as hers, and after Yang Wan tried it on, it was just right.Princess Minghui took off her sword again, and said: "I know you are a sword wielder, so take this sword too." This is a sword made of refined steel, the hilt is engraved with gold and jade, very precious.Yang Wan was taken aback and said, "How can I accept such an expensive gift from the princess?" Princess Minghui said: "Isn't the friendship between you and me more valuable than this gift? If you refuse, then you will look down on me." Yang Wan felt her sincere affection, so she had to accept it. Princess Minghui said: "Okay, now we can go see Tuo Lei." Yang Wan was a little anxious, and said, "Do you still want to see Tuolei?" Princess Minghui said: "This time Prince Zhen's team is returning to the country. You may encounter relatively few officers and soldiers on the way. But it's better to be prepared. Tuo Lei is now the supervisor of the country, and he can give you convenience. Yours I have already told him about it, and he is willing to help you. He and Li Sinan are also very good friends, so you can rest assured." The two walked out of the tent, only to see Tuo Lei waiting outside. Tuo Lei took out a command arrow and said: "This is the command arrow with my name engraved on it. Someone asked you, and you said that I sent you to the Southern Dynasty to work carefully. I believe no one would dare to keep you in trouble." Yang Wan was about to receive the command arrow, when Tuo Lei said again: "You went back to see Sinan, please pay my respects to him. Although we have stopped fighting for the time being, we will always win the Central Plains in the future. I have made a decision I will lead the division by myself and drink horses in the Yellow River, maybe we will meet again in the future." Yang Wan paused, and thought to herself: "Tuo Lei is different from Princess Minghui, he is the supervisor of Mongolia, if he leads troops to invade the Central Plains in the future, he will be my enemy. How could I be so foolish and accept his favor so easily ?” Thinking of this point, Yang Wan hurriedly pushed the hand that was about to receive the command arrow, and said: "Please forgive me for being ignorant of flattery, this command arrow should be taken back by the prince." Tuo Lei was greatly surprised, frowned, and said, "Why?" Yang Wan said: "If I have received such a great favor from the prince, I am afraid that Li Sinan and I will not be able to repay it in this life!" Tuo Lei laughed loudly and said: "Li Sinan and I have exchanged 'An Answer' of 'Hata', you are like my sister-in-law. I should help you, how can I expect you to repay me?" Yang Wan said: "Although that is the case, according to the rules of our Han people, receiving favors from others is like incurring a debt, and the debt must be repaid before you can feel at ease. Therefore, although the prince does not expect repayment, I can't accept it brazenly." Tuo Lei frowned deeper, and smiled suddenly for a long time: "I understand what you mean. Well, then I will open the skylight with you and speak frankly. We separate business and private, and I will give you the arrow. This is a personal friendship. In the future, if it is for I don’t blame you if you and your wife want to meet me on the battlefield for a national event! You can accept that, right?” Tuo Lei said, but he still wanted to use favors to win over Li Sinan and Yang Wan. Yang Wan said solemnly: "Sometimes it is difficult to distinguish public friendship and personal relationship. I appreciate the prince's kindness, because I can't embarrass Li Sinan!" 明慧公主见杨婉执意不肯接受，对她倒是不禁多了一重敬佩，当下说道：“我们的大军从六盘山撤退回国，固原北面，我们并无驻军。你从这条路走，风险较少，倘若有甚意外，你叫他们把你带来见我。” 杨婉道：“多谢公主指点！”当下跨上明慧公主送给她的坐骑，互道珍重，便即挥手告别。 拖雷目送杨婉一人一骑绝尘而去，摇了摇头，脸色甚是难看。 明慧公主道：“四哥，你不是怪她不识抬举吧？我倒是觉得她很难得呢。” 拖雷道：“不错，的确很是难得。但也正是因此，却使我寝食难安了！” 明慧公主“噗嗤”一笑，说道：“你是怕她路上出事？那也不用这样严重，搅到寝食难安呀？这恐怕不是完全为了李思南的缘故了吧？” 拖雷怫然不悦，说道：“你想到哪里去了？” 明慧公主见哥哥说得如此郑重，吃了一惊，改容问道：“然则又是为何？” 拖雷道：“你想一个无依无靠的弱女，也能有这样的骨气，这还不可怕吗！” 朗慧公主恍然大悟，说道：“哦，原来你是怕将来征服不了汉人。” 拖雷说道：“不错。我一向听得汉人讲究'气节'二字，说是：富贵不能淫，贫贱不能移，威武不能屈。三妹，你读过汉人的书，这几句话你懂么？” 明慧公主点了点头，说道：“以前教我汉书的先生曾经给我讲解过。” 拖雷接下去说道：“好，那我就不必给你解释了。但我过去虽然知道汉人讲究气节，心里总是不大相信，我想哪里能有这样的完人呢？我一手拿着刀剑，一手拿着官职金银，谁人在我面前还不低头？现在我见了这位杨姑娘，我才知道的确有这样的人，更可怕的是，她还是个弱质女流呢。” 明慧公主道：“汉人未必人人像她这样，不是也有余一中这样对咱们卑躯屈膝的大男人么？” 拖雷道：“怕的是像余一中这样的人只是极少数。大多数汉人倘若像这位杨姑娘一样，咱们将来就是占了汉人的地方，只怕也是不能长久。” 明慧公主笑道：“那就不必去打汉人的地方好了。” 拖雷道：“爹爹的遗嘱你我岂能违背？” 明慧公主道：“爹爹已经死了，你遵命也好，违背也好，反正他都是不会知道的了。” 拖雷皱起眉头，说道：“你这是不懂事的孩子话！我若不去打汉人的地方，焉能掌握兵权。我掌握不了兵权，不但是我要给二哥杀掉，连你也没有保障！” 明慧公主默然不语。遥望远方，杨婉早已走得不见了，但在她走过的那条路上，马蹄溅起的尘土还在飞扬。 明慧公主心里想道：“别人都羡慕我身为公主，我倒是很羡慕杨婉。她虽然也是父母双亡，但还有一个李思南，我却是连一个知心的朋友都没有。她可以海阔天空任意飞翔，我却像是困在金丝笼里的鸟儿，不能自主。唉，杨姐姐实在比我幸福得多。但愿她在路上不要出事才好。” 明慧公主的祝福没有落空，杨婉果然是一路平安，没有出事，她依照明慧公主的指点，从固原之北绕过六盘山，一个蒙古兵也没遇上。 明慧公主在挂念她，她则在挂念李思南。 “南哥不知已经逃了出来没有？人海茫茫，却到哪里寻找他呢？”杨婉心想。exactly: How about knowing the future?Please listen to the breakdown next time.
