end song

"shut up!"

It was Liu Bingzhong who was the first to stop Shang Wen from speaking.

Liu Bingzhong was only 51 years old at the time. If you only look at his appearance, it is hard to imagine that this is the first minister of Kublai Khan's shogunate.

The founding father is still wearing a shabby black plain suit, with a dark complexion and rough skin, only a pair of eyes revealing a wise and deep gaze.

"Shang Zhouqing, you are out of your mind. Your Majesty is away from an expedition and will be back soon, so stop talking nonsense here."

Liu Bingzhong didn't say much, only intimidation and suppression.

As usual, Shangwen, the protégé recommended by him, would have bowed his head and stepped aside.

However, perhaps because the situation is so urgent that people cannot think rationally, Shang Wen not only did not back down, but went one step further, shouting: "Don't deceive yourself any more!"

The Mongolian officials in the palace all looked at each other in blank dismay, unable to understand what these Hanchens were arguing about.

Compared with the benefit of tongue, this may be Liu Bingzhong's superb means. He took a lot of power from the Mongolian and color-eyed ministers in a silent way, and promised to appease them with huge profits, making the court of Zhenjin Jianguo There is a strong Chinese-French etiquette atmosphere in the hall.

The Mongolian officials didn't want to listen anymore. After all, the situation was still unclear and it didn't concern their immediate interests. They didn't intend to get involved rashly. They stood there and looked at Shangwen coldly, just like watching a monkey juggling.

The historian then sent more than ten fast horses to chase Shi Ji, but after leaving Kaiping City and crossing the Shangdu River all the way, they could only see the vast grassland, so how could there be any shadow of Shi Ji?

The 800 people around Shi Ji are all the generals of the Zhending historian, all of them are trustworthy confidants, and all of them are elite and brave.

There are many kinds of news, but I don't know whether it is true or not.

Shi Ji heard it, and pondered again.

The historians are not wronged, Shi Tianze did secretly spy on the situation back then, and had a hidden heart of disobedience.Later, Li Fen was beheaded without authorization in Jinan, and some things could no longer be concealed.

He also said that now Kublai Khan is still personally gathering soldiers and horses in the Houtao area, and Aibuhua escorted her back to Kaiping, and let Aibuhua marry Yuelie and so on.

"Yes!"

"It's love or not, it's only three hundred miles away from Shangdu River..."

But what comes to mind is a lot of other things.

Zhen Jin sat there, watching this scene, feeling a little out of it.

The Eagle Guard has always been inferior to Tang's Military Intelligence Department, which is one of the reasons, that is, it cannot be trusted by the ruler.

He is the craziest in this court, and everyone else has scruples.

The loyal servant in Shi's mansion was shocked, and hurriedly took the person in, and closed the door with a "bang".

"We saw a man who looked very much like His Majesty, wearing a felt blanket, and walking very slowly. He must have been seriously injured."

Bai Hua has a son Bai Pu who is famous for his talent and fame, and he has been raised in the family of his best friend Yuan Haowen.

In any case, the matter of Zhenjin's ascension to the throne was put on the table so unexpectedly.

If Kublai Khan thought the same way, Shi Ji didn't feel wronged at all.

There are some things that even he, the deputy commander of Dayuan's spy agency, can't quite understand.

Who?
It was a group of Han officials including him, Shi Ji, and the real golden prince whom the Han officials wanted to support.

(I made a mistake before, Shi Ji was set as the deputy commander of the Eagle Guard, and Shi Quan and Shi Ge were the ones who died.)
"Commander, we have found out. Mangge sent [-] cavalry to leave Hetao and head for Kaiping."

So the Mongolian officials recruited translators to translate what these Hanchens were arguing about.

"Is Commander Shi here?"

As shocked as Shi Potian, all the Han officials were a little bit astonished.

The knight on the horse wore a felt hat and did not show his face. After looking around, seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he quickly entered Shi Ji's mansion.

"Who led these 1 people?"

~~
Shangdu Riverside.

At this time, Aibuhua's soldiers and horses had not yet arrived, so Shi Ji ordered a rest.

Some people, like the veterans of the Jinlianchuan shogunate, acted prudently and were unwilling to take risks, and were extremely angry at Shangwen's actions; others had long wanted to support real gold, and immediately seemed to have found their backbone.

The next moment, he thought of Kublai Khan's suspicion of princes, especially historians, after Li Fen's death.

After entering the big tent, he was taken aback for a moment.

"Your Majesty is terrified, please put the state affairs first, obey the public opinion, and come to the Great Treasure!"

"Queen?! Minister Shi Ji paid homage to the queen...to King Zhao."

They said they were going out to patrol the city, but in fact they had three horses and had enough weapons, equipment and rations.

Shi Ji had a vague guess in his mind - Kublai Khan might have been injured and his body hadn't fully recovered. The reason why he refused to show up was because he was worried that someone would harm him.

He marched quickly all night, and finally arrived at the edge of a large lake named "Kangba Nuoer" at the fastest speed.

When he got out of the big tent again, he already had doubts in his eyes.

Chabi calmed down and asked Shi Ji to get up immediately.

Everyone insisted on their own opinions and was extremely excited.

The horse's hooves rolled westward, looking extremely decisive.

"..."

He thought of his father, Shi Tianni, who said before going to the banquet of Wuxian, "I treat people with a sincere heart, and people will bear each other. Heaven will not tolerate it, and I hope that I will not worry about it", but his father died in the hands of Wuxian in the end.

"Where did he go?"

"His Majesty is probably in the army..."

"Here's an order, let's go west to meet King Zhao."

He himself was a Jinshi at the end of the Jin Dynasty. He served as a judge in the Privy Council when he was in the Kingdom of Jin. After the death of Jin, he defected to the Kingdom of Song.

Shi Ji's face became solemn in an instant, and he listened to the words behind him holding his breath.

Here the veterans of the Jinlianchuan shogunate are still drinking, while a group of officials over there have already persuaded them to come in.

"Listen to me." The visitor lowered his voice and said, "Commander Zhang Yizhang sent me here."

"Your Majesty has passed away in the battle of Helan Mountain. The bad news is heard all over the world, but the princes are not willing to believe it. However, the country cannot be without a king for a day. I invite His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to succeed!"

"Commander." A confidant caught up and was about to speak.

This kind of old man who has experienced the ruin of his country and family has the best insight into the world. After thinking about it, he has seen the situation clearly.

The fortune and misfortunes of a person's life are unpredictable, how can they be grasped by themselves?
Shi Ji withdrew his mind, stopped thinking about these old things, and planned to concentrate on thinking about the possibility of success.

Because the person sitting at the top is clearly Queen Chabi.

In the end, when talking about Shi Tianze's death in battle, she wiped away two tears and said that Shi Ji came, so she was relieved.

Shi Ji turned his head to look, and took a look...the big tent was not far away.

Even the Eagle Guards were unable to inquire about this news in advance. It can be seen that these Mongolian nobles have been guarding against Han Chinese spies.

First of all, some people said that they saw Kublai Khan in the territory of the Wanggu tribe near Yinshan Mountain, but after that Kublai Khan never returned to the Hetao Army.

Only no one cares what Zhen Jin thinks.

"Not good! Not good!"

In the afternoon, the red army who explored the horses came from ahead, and exchanged the tokens of soldiers, and then saw the soldiers and horses of Aibuhua rushing to the lake to set up camp.

"What do you mean? You'll know when you arrive..."

Shi Ji has been bowing his head to listen and speak, but his eyes are quietly looking around.

"Where is Commander Shi now?"

Shi Ji raised his hand to stop, and asked, "Go back to our camp."

"Stupid nonsense! Still not going back?!"

With a "squeak", the door was opened.

Of course the news has been known for a long time, but no one has ever dared to expose it in public.It was clear to everyone that Kublai Khan might return it.Then, whoever dares to say that he died will not escape the fate of ransacking his family and exterminating his family.

Everyone is not fully prepared, but it will soon stir up the crowd.

"Bai Gong, what do you mean?"

"That tent in the back."

Thinking about it, he sighed, and his eyes were already ruthless.

He pitched his tent in a better position by the lake, but Aibu spent a large number of soldiers and horses to camp around the lake, so he surrounded Shi Ji's tent.

Shi Ji called the scout horse to his side, lowered his voice, and asked, "Has your Majesty made any public appearances in the army?"

~~
Shi Ji over there didn't know what happened in Kaiping City after he led his troops to leave.

"No?" Shi Ji frowned even deeper.

Shi Ji felt that his mouth was a little dry, he licked his lips, looked at the camp over there, observed carefully for a while, and then pressed the knife to see Aibuhua.

"No."

What he had to do was an important decision, and he had to be careful.

After a while, two of Shi Ji's most trusted staff members were invited to the side hall, and after hearing a piece of news from the visitor, their faces changed drastically.

During this period of time, these Mongolian officials in the court rarely expressed their opinions. After all, the Jinlianchuan shogunate did not reveal anything.

"Tell me, what did you find?"

Shi Ji led [-] Eagle Guards to leave Kaiping City and stationed near here.He held up the binoculars and glanced at the endless grassland to the west, and when he saw a scouting horse returning, he reined in the horse and waited.

"Going out of the city, hurry! Send someone to chase..."

Aibuhua experienced a big defeat, but she sat aside with a dejected expression, appearing very silent.

"No."

Now that Shi Tianze died and Shi Bang surrendered to Li Xia, Shi Ji really didn't have the confidence to support the family under Kublai Khan's rule.

"It's too late to chase after Lang Jun, and Kaiping is not the key here. Now, if you want to keep it safe, the key lies with Commander Zhang. This old man should go to Yanjing himself."

Shangwen risked his life to help Zhenjin ascend the throne.

But today, they got a glimpse of something from the quarrel.

He thought of his uncle Shi Tianze who had been cautious all his life, and finally died on the battlefield.

Although the Hanchens were all looking forward to the succession of real gold, they reacted differently at this time.

The interpreter was translating Shang Wen's words, but was stopped in the middle of speaking.

When the situation was reported to Shi Ji's home, Bai Hua, one of the aides, meditated on his beard.

~~
And just half a day later, a fast horse rushed to Kaiping City.

What's more is that they haven't figured out what to do, and even think that the dispute in the court today is a scene played by Liu Bingzhong and Shang Wen. The two teachers and students propose one, and the other opposes, to test everyone's reaction.

Shi Ji turned his head, narrowed his eyes, and murmured, "That's Queen Chabi's tent."

He was almost certain of some things, but he still forced himself to calm down, and let others observe various small details.

Before nightfall, he got more information.For example, in the evening, Chabi’s tent ate boiled beef and mutton, and Ai Buhua went to ask for instructions before issuing new military information, etc.

Shi Ji took a deep breath and finally made up his mind. He recruited his confidants and gave orders in a low voice.

"It's not too late, let's do it late at night..."
