Chapter 21 three

Erlu twisted his hands nervously, sweat kept dripping down his forehead, even the feet in the boots seemed to be soaked in water.However, he dared not make a sound.He was secretly summoned by Hai Misuo to finalize that matter. In fact, this was a fatal matter that he had repeatedly discussed with Hai Misui in the past few days, and only today was he ready to implement it.Apparently, Hai Miluo had been prepared for a long time. When he sneaked into Hai Miluo's sleeping tent, only Hai Miluo was waiting for him in the tent. At this moment, through the hazy darkness, Hai Lost is sitting upright with his eyes closed.She has been sitting in this position for some time.I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but Erlu always felt that there was a blunt line running from the left eye, through the bridge of the nose to the right cheek of Hai Lost, which divided her face into two, which looked both funny and terrifying.What is she going to do?Da Nayan Tuolei might have to return to the Khan camp before dark. If she still doesn't make a decision, they can only give up this only chance.

Erlu pinched his ears impatiently.Damn, a woman is a woman. When we made plans together, she was more determined than anyone else. When things come to an end, is she going to retreat?If this is the case, he must stay away from this kind of woman in the future, lest she not accomplish enough and fail more, and impede his great leader's failure, and end up in a different place. Has the sun gone down?Why is it getting darker and darker in this tent?Erlu was about to get up when Hai Mizuo suddenly opened his eyes, the flashing light in his eyes made Erlu shiver. "What's the matter? Are you scared?" Hai Lost stood up and walked to Erlu, looking down at the dense beads of sweat on his forehead, and asked contemptuously.

"Afraid? Ghosts are not afraid!" "It's worthless, but you're still a man!" "This kind of thing, if you don't get it right, your head will fall to the ground. I'm not afraid it's fake." "Okay, my great leader, you can be afraid, but you should know better than anyone else that if you do half of this thing, you will die. Why don't you keep doing it? Maybe you can fight for a way out for yourself. Da Nayan is always ours. The worry of the heart, Genghis Khan left a will in those years, asking his third son and my father-in-law Wo Kuotai to inherit the Khan throne, but everyone knows that most people still have a heart for Da Nayan. If it weren’t for this Da Nayan Promise, it is still unknown whether my father-in-law will be able to ascend to the Khan throne. Now, he is leading the army to force the Emperor Jin into the heavens and the earth, especially in the battle of Sanfeng Mountain in Junzhou. The 150,000 elite soldiers of the Jin Army, almost all the elite and famous generals of the Jin Kingdom were defeated in this battle, and his prestige even surpassed that of Genghis Khan. Isn’t there already someone talking about it in private? He is said to be the rebirth of Genghis Khan. If he is alive, I’m afraid None of us can live well. So, someone has to take this risk. At least Da Nayan is dead, and it can ensure that the position of Khan will not fall into the hands of Tuo Lei. In time, Guiyou may not be able to lose the position of Khan."

"In this case, why don't we sweat profusely..." "Don't make mistakes! If you drank the water of two Genghis Khan's sons to death in one go, you will not be headed, but will be dismembered by five horses, right?" "Then, I should...should..." "What are you panicking about! I've been deliberating on our plan just now to see if there are any loopholes. In this way, you can help me to reorganize it from the beginning. We must make sure nothing goes wrong." "twitter." "My father-in-law is fine in everything, but unfortunately he is an alcoholic. You are proficient in medical science, and you can be sure that his recent chest tightness, heart palpitations, dreaminess, and other symptoms that seem to be haunted by ghosts are all caused by continuous alcoholism?"

"certainly." "So you took advantage of the situation and said some ambiguous words to convince him that hundreds of thousands of people died in the battle of Sanfeng Mountain alone, and it is inevitable that there will be ghosts seeking their lives?" "right." "Does he believe it too?" "yes." "After you came out, you directly told me about this matter, and then we agreed on this plan of 'Li Daitao stiff'. No third person will know about this matter?" "No, I'm sure." "Well, from this point of view, as long as things are done carefully, great plans can be achieved. Recently, although the talisman water you gave Da Khan won't kill him, it won't make his condition better, so Da Khan thinks his days are numbered , I was in a hurry to recall Danayan from the front line and prepare to explain the funeral. I have two more things to ask you. Do you think Danayan is willing to drink the talisman water you have recited for the sweat? If Danayan is really After drinking the talisman water, what can you do to make Da Khan recover quickly, so that he can believe in your talisman water and prophecy?"

"In addition to taking my talisman water, Da Khan is also taking some pills to regulate the body. During this period, if I hadn't used the talisman water to control his illness, his illness should have been cured. At that time, I just need to give He changed to plain water, so his illness is getting worse day by day. As for whether Da Nayan will drink the talisman water I use to drive away ghosts and gods, then I am not sure, it depends on God's will." "Da Nayan is loyal by nature and has a deep brotherhood with Da Khan. He must be willing to drink a bowl of atonement water for Da Khan? However, if he refuses, we have a way. Let Da Khan get sick again Three to five months later, when the time comes, we will tell Da Nayan that Da Nayan has no brotherhood towards him, and Da Nayan must wish that Da Nayan can't get sick so that he can replace him. Nayan may not be without fear, and seeing that Da Nayan's affection for him is not so much, there must be a estrangement in his heart, and he will become colder and colder day by day. And we, as long as we add fuel to the fire at the right time, why don't we get rid of it Big Nayan opportunity."

"Wonderful, wonderful! The plan of 'Li Daitao is stiff' fails, so we will give him a plan of 'killing two birds with one stone'. Anyway, the sweat is addicted to alcohol, so there is no guarantee that one day he will become terminally ill and die. Guiyou Prince is a sweat The eldest son will inherit the position of Khan logically, and by then, you will be the queen respected by thousands of people." The more Erlu talked, the happier he became, he couldn't help dancing and spitting everywhere.Hai Mi lost his eyes at him, and smiled coldly: "You are thinking too simply. I don't want Da Khan to die early, not to mention that he has long intended to make the third son Kuo out as his heir, even if he has already established him now. Kuo Chu is his heir, and after his death, Kuo Chu may not be able to ascend the throne smoothly, let alone our master who has no kindness to others, and even his own father doesn't love him very much? Don't forget , Outside, there is a Batu who holds a heavy army and has outstanding military exploits. In front of our eyes, there is also a man who is recognized as knowledgeable, profound and wise! If I want to say, most of these princes and nobles support them in their hearts Even more so than supporting Kuo Chu. Kuo Chu can't compete with them, our master can't even dream of fulfilling such a dream."

Erlu was immediately discouraged: "In this case, we are not busy!" "It's up to man, why are you in a hurry! Didn't you have a look at Kuochu? You told me that his ears are restrained, his brows are bony, and that although he is rich but not supported, his life will be short. If I hadn't listened to you, I would have It wouldn't be too hasty to change your mind about marrying Guiyu." "That's right. I also see that you have the appearance of a queen. When it comes true, how should you thank me?" "How many times do you want me to say it?" Hai Mizuo snorted, and hurriedly said, "You should go to Da Khan. Now, I'm afraid Da Nayan has arrived, you go Listen to what they say. If you are needed, God will help you and me, so don't miss this opportunity. In addition, no matter whether Da Nayan drinks the talisman water or not, you must remain calm and don't show your feet."

"It's a matter of life and death, I know how to do it. The problem is..." Erlu frowned slightly, hesitant to speak. "how?" "I want to ask you a word, if Da Nayan dies, once Da Khan dies, how can you ensure that Guiyou ascends to the throne of Khan?" "Using the wealth of the empire to buy people's hearts." Hai Milo replied straightforwardly. Erlu seemed to have made up his mind, turned around and left without asking any further questions. Hai Mizuo kept watching Erlu sneaking out of the big tent with his head poking his head, and then he sat down slowly, rubbing his painful temples vigorously with his hands.At this moment, she felt as if she was exhausted, and a gust of cold sweat instantly wet her pale cheeks and soaked her whole body.

Longevity bless me!If things come to light, I will die without a place to bury me! She began to pray incessantly, then it became a plea, then a curse, and finally fell silent.After a long time, she raised her head, with a strange gleam in her eyes, in the increasingly thick twilight, like two cold lights from hell. When Batu heard the bad news in his fief, he had just finished entertaining the envoys returning from their mission to Mongolia.As the situation in the conquered land stabilized, Batu began to send the kings of the countries west of the Khwarazm River region to Mongolia to make a pilgrimage to Okuotai Khan.Wo Kuotai enthusiastically received these people who came to the court for the first time in the capital Harakorin, and entrusted the envoys to extend greetings and appreciation to Batu.

At that time, after the end of the first Western Expedition, Genghis Khan divided the newly conquered lands, namely Uyghur (now Uyghur), the original states of Xiliao, the territory under the jurisdiction of Khwarazmo, and the duchies of Oros into three, enfeoffing Given to his three sons, these fiefdoms later became the embryonic form of the Golden Horde, Chagatai Khanate, and Ogodei Khanate.Then, Hulagu, the son of Tuolei, conquered Persia in 1258, and was canonized as the Ilkhanate by Kublai Khan in 1264.In this way, the four famous khanates in Mongolian history were formed, and they all obeyed the orders of the central government. Among the four great Khanates, Jochi and his descendants first occupied a large area west of the present-day Irtysh River and north of the Aral Sea and the Caspian Sea. When Batu commanded the eldest son of the kings for the second westward expedition, the area under their jurisdiction expanded. It starts from the Irtysh River in the east, reaches the Danube River in the west, starts from the Caucasus in the south, and includes Oros in the north. Its capital is in the city of Sarai.Chagatai and its descendants owned the old land of Xiliao, including the North-South Road of Tianshan Mountains (the area between the Amu Darya River and the Syr Darya River today), and the capital Ali Mari (now the northwest of Huocheng County, Xinjiang).Wo Kuotai and his descendants owned the upper reaches of the Irtysh River and the east of Lake Balkhash, and established their capital in Yemili (now Emin County, Xinjiang).Hulagu and his descendants occupied a vast area from the Amu Darya River in the east, to the Mediterranean Sea in the west, to the Caucasus in the north, and to the Indian Ocean in the south. They established their capital in Tabriz, and later became an important link between the economy and culture of Asia and Europe in the Yuan Dynasty. One of the hubs.However, the Ili Khanate was replaced by a collateral line of Genghis Khan after several Khans, and was annexed by King Timur.Timur's fifth patriarch, Kuchar, was the cousin of Genghis Khan. They had the same grandfather. Timur established the foundation on the basis of reunifying the Eastern and Western Chagatai Khanates and incorporating part of the Ilkhanate and Chincha Khanate territories. The Timurid Empire was established, and when the empire was strong, it occupied a vast territory of about 11 million square kilometers.A century later, the Timur king's empire was destroyed by Shaybani Khan, the descendant of the Golden Horde Shayban (the sixth son of Shayban, the younger brother of Batu), and Babur, the sixth grandson of King Timur, The Mughal Empire was established in India. The Mughal Empire was established for 331 years. After 17 generations of monarchs, it perished when India became a British colony in the middle of the 19th century. Since then, it has spread across the Eurasian continent. The Mongols, who have galloped for more than six hundred years, withdrew from the stage of world history. After the Battle of Sanfeng Mountain, Batu was ordered to return to the fief and continue to expand the territory.Meanwhile, King Zalandin of Khwarazmo, who fled to India, summoned his old troops and started a six-year tug-of-war with the Mongolian army.In August 1231, Zalandin was defeated and fled into the mountains. When he plundered the Kurds who fled in later, he was captured and killed by them.After Zalandin died, Batu quickly stabilized the order of the fief, and began to consider completely conquering the lands of Oros.However, at this moment came the news of Tuo Lei's death. Tuo Lei's funeral will be held according to the specifications of the Great Khan after the arrival of the Mongol kings. Batu was deeply shocked by the sudden death of his fourth uncle and felt the impermanence of life. In Batu's heart, apart from his grandfather and father, his fourth uncle is the person he is closest to and admires the most.The fourth uncle completed his meritorious service in Sanfeng Mountain, defeating his front, breaking his sharpness, and was only a stone's throw away from the destruction of the Jin Kingdom. Batu often used this as motivation, vowing that one day he would become a generation of pride like Zuhan and fourth uncle.I remember that four years ago, when Batu returned to Mongolia to participate in the Khan election meeting, he had a long heart-to-heart talk with his fourth uncle.The fourth uncle said that his greatest wish in this life is to fulfill his father Khan's last wish and unite the Song Dynasty to destroy gold.Unexpectedly, the Kingdom of Jin had not yet been completely conquered, but the fourth uncle had finished his life at the age of forty-three, with a deep grudge. Batu entrusted all affairs in the country to Orduo and Bie Erge, and he took his younger brother Xiban and Abdu who came to report the news and rode together on horseback.A Duhe was no longer the child he was during the Western Expedition, he was tall and handsome, with noble manners and solemn speech.For many years, Abduhe has been serving Mrs. Su Ru and Meng Ge, and has integrated himself into the life of his master's family from his blood.He faithfully loves everyone in his master's family, especially Mrs. Su Ru. He loves her like his own mother, respects her, and sacrifices his life for her. This time, Mrs. Su Ru personally selected Abduhe to be sent to the fiefdom of Batu. Da Nayan Tuolei's death hit Abduhe no less than anyone in the Tuolei family.There was always a question in his heart: that day, when he returned to Mongolia with Danayan, Danayan was still very healthy, lively, talking and laughing, how could he fall ill after meeting Ogedai Khan, and Died after only three days?And Mrs. Su Ru's strange attitude.When Ogodei Khan came to visit her in person, she looked very calm, but repeatedly emphasized that she and her sons loved every inch of Mongolia's land and every citizen like Danayan, which meant that they Equally loving the representative of it all: the Great Khan himself.After hearing her words, Wo Kuotai Khan suddenly burst into tears, unable to control himself... Depressed mood makes the journey dull.Xiban saw that his second brother and A Duhe were unwilling to say anything, and he didn't dare to talk too much.Xiban's feeling about the death of his fourth uncle was not as strong as that of his second brother, but he was secretly excited to see Kublai Khan who was only a few months older than himself for this trip.Among the four sons of the fourth uncle, Xiban has always had a close relationship with Kublai Khan, who has little ambition and is highly praised by Zu Khan. Two huge groups of shadows trailed the ground and moved westward rapidly, and the sharp cries of vultures made one's heart palpitate.Batu slightly asked about the situation before and after the death of the fourth uncle, and Abduhe's answer was slightly hesitant.Batu had doubts about Erlu: "What kind of person is he? Where is Sahamu?" Sahamu was a highly respected shaman leader, and Genghis Khan was very fond of him during his lifetime.This person has a very close personal relationship with Tuo Lei. "Sahamu has been traveling in the grasslands for many years, treating those poor herdsmen and treating their illnesses. He basically doesn't care about discipline. Therefore, Mrs. Hai Lost recommended Erlu to the Great Khan. This Erlu is also somewhat unique. , I have personally seen him sitting on the ice surface with his bare feet, his face rosy and unchanged, and the mist around his body is like riding a cloud. Probably because of this reason, the Great Khan appointed him as the new leader, replacing the original leader. The position of Sahamu. However, this person is shady and annoying." Batu frowned slightly and didn't ask any more questions. Abduhe hesitated for a long time, but in the end he still confessed his inner doubts to Batu... When Mrs. Su Ru saw Batu, she burst into tears.Batu suppressed the sadness in his heart, and briefly comforted his fourth aunt.Brother Meng and his younger brothers all came to visit their cousin after hearing the news. The brothers just sat down and said a few words when Yelu Chucai brought Okutai Khan's oral order. According to Mrs. Su Ru's request, Wokuotai Khan ordered that Tuo Lei's body would be escorted by the old leader Sahamu himself, and buried in Qiren Valley. Batu and Yelu Chucai reunited after a long absence, and met with a hug ceremony. Yelu Chucai greeted Mrs. Su Ru and Brother Meng again.Mrs. Su Ru invited Yelu Chucai to sit down and served tea with her own hands. Yelu Chucai was frightened and moved, and didn't know what to do for a while. Batu looked at Yelu Chucai carefully.Seeing that Yelu Chucai looked haggard and aged a lot compared to three years ago, he was secretly worried, and gently advised: "Teacher, you must take care of your health and don't work too hard." Yelu Chucai smiled wryly: "I'm fine. What I'm most worried about now is that the profuse alcoholism will cause harm to the country and to himself, and it will do a hundred harms without any benefit." "When did Da Khan start drinking heavily?" "It happened in the past two years. Strictly speaking, it was after the Battle of Sanfeng Mountain. The envoy of the Song Dynasty came to court and presented Da Khan with dozens of carts of sweet-scented osmanthus wine that had been stored for many years. Since then, Da Khan has become addicted to drinking. Sorry I can say bluntly that on this point, Da Khan’s self-control is indeed not as good as Xian Khan’s.” "Continuing like this is not a solution after all. I think, first of all, we should let Da Khan realize the dangers of alcoholism. Only in this way can Da Khan get rid of alcohol addiction." Mrs. Su Ru said thoughtfully. "Yes, I think so too. Madame, have you thought of any way?" "Let me think about it... There is a way to try. How about this, you go back and tell Da Khan that I have something to discuss with him, and ask him to come to my house." "I'll go." "I'll accompany you too. I came to my fourth uncle's house first, and I haven't gone to see Da Khan yet." "Okay, you come with me. The Khan wants to see you too." After saying goodbye to my third uncle for more than two years, when I saw my third uncle again, Batu was shocked. This...is this really the Mongolian Khan who was once all-powerful and invincible? With a gray, swollen face, and a pair of cloudy, lifeless eyes, if they met on the road, Batu would definitely think that he had misunderstood the person. When Batu paid homage to his third uncle, Wo Kuotai waved to him wearily, telling him to get up, but he didn't ask a word about the status of the fiefdom.Hearing from Yelu Chucai that Mrs. Su Ru wanted to see him, Wo Kuotai immediately took Yelu Chucai and Batu to Danayan's tent by car.As soon as they entered the door, they saw an iron vat covered with green spots inside and outside, which made people sick after looking at it, placed on the side of the big tent. Mrs. Su Ru took her sons to greet Da Khan. "what is this?" "Hui Dahan: This is a wine vat. Da Nayan stored a lot of fine wine in this wine vat before his death, buried it in the ground, and prepared to take it out for drinking after a while. It is said that the taste of the wine will be more mellow after cellaring. Yesterday, I suddenly remembered this jar of wine, so I asked Brother Meng and the others to dig it out, and wanted to dedicate it to Da Khan. But, Da Khan, you saw it, this is the wine jar they dug out." "Hmm..." Wo Kuotai slowly picked up a piece of iron sheet that had bulged from the tank, thoughtfully. "Khan, a human being is made of flesh and blood, so is it harder than steel?" Mrs. Su Ru observed Wo Kuotai's expression from one side, and asked tactfully. Wo Kuotai glanced at Su Ru, his familiar intelligent eyes were full of anticipation. "Well... I see." "Khan, please take care! You are the hope of Mongolia, please cherish your country and your subjects!" Su Ru earnestly persuaded Wo Kuotai. Batu, Yelu Chucai, and Mengge brothers knelt down in front of Wo Kuotai, and Wo Kuotai helped them up one by one, then took Su Ru's hands, and patted them gently. "Thank you, Su Ru, thank you all for your hard work. I never thought that alcohol could be so harmful. Now, I should be alert." "Father Khan once said: drink less alcohol to soothe the nerves, and drink too much will hurt the body. Therefore, his old man has been very restrained in drinking and sex all his life." "Yeah, in this point, I really don't look like the son of Genghis Khan. However, I will keep this wine jar in mind, otherwise, I will also be ashamed of the great-faced spirit." Madam Su Ru nodded. Wo Kuotai really kept his promise, and he has stopped drinking since then.He devoted more energy to outdoor activities, and soon regained his former vigor and vitality. Tuo Lei died of illness in October 1233.In February of this year, Tuolei led the troops to conquer Bianjing, the capital of Jin.Since Jin Aizong had fled to Caizhou before, after clearing the military forces around Bianjing, Tuo Lei successively conquered Luoyang and other cities, and attacked Caizhou with the Song army. Tuolei's funeral had just ended, and Wo Kuotai Khan placed a thousand households under the control of his second son, Kuoduan, on the grounds of strengthening his power to attack gold. This move immediately caused quite a stir in the Tuolei family . Many people couldn't understand Okudei's decision, including Batu.Is it true that, as people rumored, Wo Kuotai Khan planned to weaken the power of the torpedo system? There was only one person who maintained her usual calmness as if nothing had happened, and this person was the core figure of the Tow Thunder Department: Mrs. Su Ru. She received and sent off the emissary of the Great Khan in peace.When they talked, Batu stayed by his aunt's side all the time.Batu has to admit that his fourth aunt's heart is like a clear spring, you can see the rocks at the bottom of the water anytime and anywhere, but you can never grasp the direction of the water flow. Meng Ge came to see his mother.He was not as aggrieved as some of his younger brothers, but he was clearly depressed. Mrs. Su Ru asked her son to sit down. "Erji, how did you talk?" "Tomorrow, Kuo Duan will receive them." "You agree?" "agreed." "why?" "Son, do you think it's wrong for Eji to do this?" Meng Ge was silent for a moment: "I want to ask Da Khan what happened." "No, son. You have read a lot of books since you were young. You should know these two sentences: In the whole world, is it the land of the king? On the shore of the land, is it the subject of the king. I, you, and all of us are sweats." The Great Khan has the right to decide everything about us. I also said the same to the Messenger." "But I just can't figure it out. My father just passed away, and Da Khan doesn't care about brotherhood." "If the Great Khan ignored the brotherhood, far more than a thousand households would be taken away." "Eji, have you ever thought about how we will gain a foothold in the grassland in the future if the inheritance Zuhan left to his father is divided up like this?" "A person has a sore on his leg, and you are worried that a piece of flesh will be gouged out by the doctor. In the end, you are forced to lose the whole leg. Instead of this, it is better for us to goug out the sore with a knife first." Meng Ge stared blankly at his mother. A light flashed in Batu's mind, and he had already realized the good intentions of his fourth aunt. This sore should be Wokuotai Khan's heart disease: the powerful power of the Tuolei family will always be a potential threat to the Great Khan. Indeed, sometimes, a little intolerance can lead to big plans. Kuo Duan did not come to receive his new followers the next day.Many days passed before he reluctantly got up under the repeated urging of his father and came to Mrs. Su Ru's bedroom.Moreover, he was not as confident as people imagined, but seemed anxious. Mrs. Su Ru warmly received Kuo Duan.She had already arranged everything well and was just waiting for Kuo Duan to hand over.Kuo Duan didn't ask anything, and was about to leave after collecting the roster, but Mrs. Su Ru kept him and invited him to have dinner together.During the dinner, she also gave him a pair of leather boots that she sewed by herself. This night, Kuo Duan has been intoxicated in a warm atmosphere.He was so envious of Brother Meng, and envied them for having such an intelligent and kind mother. Kuo Duan truthfully told his father Khan about Mrs. Su Ru's attitude.Wo Kuotai also heard about these things from the envoy.He finally believed in the loyalty of the Tuo Lei family, and even regretted that he should not listen to Yelu Chucai's advice, but listened to some people's slander, and did a stupid thing to seek the interests of the Tuo Lei family. He summoned Mrs. Su Ru. Mrs. Su Ru, as always, was full of sincere affection for him.Thinking of Su Ru's painstaking efforts in persuading him to quit drinking, and thinking of Su Ru's loyalty after Tuo Lei's death, his eyes turned red. He didn't use words, but swore in his heart that he must protect Tuo Lei's family well. Meng Ge also began to understand his mother. A woman, with her foresight and peace, survived a crisis safely, keeping her family and clan. Soon, good news came that the Mongolian and Song allied forces conquered Caizhou, and the Jin Dynasty perished. This day is February 9, 1234.
