Red Mansion Jia Enhou

Niu Ben, who returned to the military camp with Jia She, shook his head at Jia She.

"No sound, is it possible that you are hallucinating, brother Xie?"

Faced with Niu Ben's questioning, Jia She shook his head.

He seemed to have heard Jia Zheng's voice just now. Jia Zheng should be in the capital now, so why is he in the northwest?
Jia She didn't know that Jia Zheng was sentenced to exile and followed him to the northwest.

The emperor did all this on purpose. He secretly stuffed Jia Zheng into the team that was exiled to the northwest.

"let's go!"

Niu Ben pulled Jia She into the general's tent. After being taught a lesson, the sergeant of the assault battalion ordered his men to arrest Jia Zheng and tie him to a big tree on the side until he was finished interrogating him.

The previously amiable sergeant of the assault battalion suddenly changed his attitude towards Jia Zheng.

"How could you be like this?"

"Check your conscience, how have I treated you?"

"How dare you harm me like this!"

Jia Zheng got into big trouble.

The sergeant in the assault battalion had a face full of anger. Trespassing out of the camp without permission was a serious crime punishable by beheading.

He was almost a good family man, and he was about to be implicated by this kid.

"What on earth do you mean?"

"Didn't I tell you the rules yesterday?"

Jia Zheng hung his head and said nothing, which angered all the prisoners except the sergeant of the assault battalion.

They thought Jia Zheng was a mute, so he didn't answer any questions.

Now look at this one, he is a mute, he is too disdainful to talk to them.

"Captain, this old guy did it on purpose."

"Why else would he not answer any questions? Beat him up!"

The prisoners began to get ready.

"Don't be in a hurry!"

"say!"

The sergeant of the assault battalion was the first to punch Jia Zheng. Jia Zheng cried out in pain but remained silent.

This made the assault battalion sergeant somewhat frustrated.

Who is this person?

"Sir, look at him!"

The prisoners, who couldn't stand Jia Zheng's contempt for others, began to instigate.

But after seeing the leader of the assault battalion who made the clothing materials for Jia Zheng, he did not dare to act rashly.

There is a difference between exile and banishment. If this really is a noble lord who is temporarily in trouble, and they offend him, the gain will outweigh the loss.

"Go back and rest!"

The sergeant of the assault battalion faced Jia Zheng himself.

"Now you might speak?"

"I thought you were abnormal because the bailiffs sent you here."

"A real exiled prisoner would have wounds all over his body, but you don't have any wounds except for a tan and calluses on your hands and feet."

"Who are you and why were you exiled?"

Considering that Jia Zheng had seen Jia She's excitement in the distance before, the sergeant of the assault battalion was a little suspicious of Jia Zheng's identity.

After all, how many of these exiled prisoners have actually met any important person?
Even if I have seen it, it was just a glimpse from afar.

Not to mention recognizing someone from such a long distance, now the sergeant of the assault battalion suspects that Jia Zheng is the real master of Rongguo Mansion.

However, even if he is the master of Rongguo Mansion, he has to abide by the rules here.

"If you don't want to die on the front line, just open your mouth."

Jia Zheng still said nothing.

The sergeant of the assault battalion finally realized that the person in front of him looked down on them, the peasants.

Little did they know that a phoenix in distress was no better than a chicken. Even after being exiled, they still acted like noble lords and looked down on them.

The sergeant of the assault battalion stood up from the ground with a gloomy face.

Since others look down on him, there is no need for him to continue to curry favor with them.

"How's the chief?"

"That old fellow, has he not spoken yet?"

The sergeant in chief of the assault battalion said nothing, which was considered as his agreement.

"I told you, that old guy just looks down on us brothers."

The sergeant of the assault battalion was not the only one who could see through Jia Zheng's identity.

"According to me, we should teach him a lesson and let him know who has the final say in this camp."

Many people had this idea, but they were all stopped by the sergeant of the assault battalion.

Don't be reckless.

"Stop arguing. It's not easy for all of you brothers to survive until now. Don't break military rules and get yourself into trouble because of him."

The sergeant of the assault battalion gave orders.

Jia Zheng was tied to a dead tree and exposed to the sun.

It was not put down until it ran out of water.

As for Jia She, he was discussing the current situation with Niu Ben and the people in the general's tent.

The emperor's informant has already delivered the news, and the facts are the same as what Princess Jincheng stated in the letter.

It was not until the evening that the place where the Sotu tribe would be killed was finally decided.

However, it is still necessary to send someone to the Tatar tribe as an envoy.

Looking at the yellow sand and the slightly bare grass on the ground.

Jia She was dressed up as a Confucian scholar, and under the banner of an envoy, he appeared in the territory of Tatar with a diplomatic team.

At this time, the Tatar Khan had already learned that the Great Chu had sent more troops to the northwest in preparation for an attack on the Tatars.

However, the main force of the Tatars is still in Liaodong.

Even if he wanted to send people to harass the northwest border of Da Chu, he had no soldiers under his command. He had to leave the remaining 20,000 people in Jinting, Tatar, to guard the safety of the royal tent.

Otherwise, if all of them were sent out, I'm afraid someone would take advantage of the situation.

"What does Da Chu mean?"

"Are they going to help the Later Jin?"

"Have they forgotten the grief of the entire city of Humen Pass being massacred?"

"Hasn't this Khan already passed on the inside story of Humen Pass to the Great Chu? Why are they still helping?"

These four questions in a row reflected the Tatar Khan's anxiety.

If the Great Chu really sends troops to the northwest to attack the Tatars now, he will have no choice but to urgently transfer the troops back from Liaodong, and by then it will be all in vain.

If the Later Jin is not eradicated completely, it will probably become another threat.

At the same time, Turan was telling Princess Jincheng about the current situation in Tatar.

"Your Highness, the envoys from the Great Chu have arrived. The Great Chu is going to attack the Tatars."

Turan spoke excitedly, but Princess Jincheng had a blank expression and no emotion could be seen.

"The envoys from the Great Chu have arrived. How are Am and Adul preparing?"

Turan shook his head at Princess Jincheng.

"Still no news from Khatun!"

Princess Jincheng frowned. It didn't matter whether the Great Chu attacked Tatar or not. The key was whether her mother was ready.

If her mother is not ready, it will be useless even if Da Chu helps.

Princess Jincheng's eyes darkened.

The news that Jia She was sent as an envoy to Tatar also spread back to Rongguo Mansion.

It is not easy to be an envoy. It is nonsense not to kill the envoys when two armies are fighting.

If the enemy really wants to start a war, what's the point of killing him?

How could she assign such a dangerous mission to her master?

"Sister, what should I do now?"

Mrs. Xing put her hand on Jia Min's arm, and Jia Min looked calm.

"Don't worry, sister-in-law. Although my brother has been sent as an envoy, he will not be in danger."

Just as Jia Min said, Jia She had safely arrived in the city of Suger in the territory of Tatar.

The city of Suger is where the Tatar Khan meets foreign envoys, and it is also the only marked city in southern Tatar.

Annual trade among the southern Tatar tribes takes place here, and the integration of economy and culture has created the prosperity of the city of Suger.

In addition, the city of Suger was also a place of supply for the Tatars when they moved south.

Jia She marched for several days and settled here.

While waiting for an audience with the Tatar Khan, Jia She was accompanied by someone to stroll around the city of Suger.

Accompanying Jia She was Wuzhener, a general under the Tatar Khan.

Wuzhen'er has always been famous among the Tatars for his bravery. The Tatar Khan kept him by his side for two purposes. One was to intimidate the rebellious Tatar tribes, and the other was to prevent the Great Chu from taking advantage of the situation and marching north, so that he would not be left without a capable general under his command.

Now he sent him to receive Jia She to intimidate him.

Jia She wandered around calmly.

"Great Chu has always been a friendly country to the Tatars. Why would we go to war with the Tatars just for a villainous country that is trying to sow discord?"

Jia She said nothing along the way, while Wu Zheng'er couldn't sit still and spoke in his half-familiar Chinese.

Jia She picked up the Western Region merchant in front of him, pulled out the knife from the stall and took a look at it.

"The knife is good!"

"Can you accept the currency of the Great Chu?"

Jia She took out a small silver ingot from his bag.

When the Western Region merchant saw this, his eyes instantly turned red.

"receive!"

"Thank God for the reward!"

The Western Region merchant took the silver from Jia She's hand.

Jia She's gaze fell on Wuzhen'er again. Because Jia She didn't reply, Wuzhen'er's face had turned red with anger.

"You said that Houjin is a small country, but Tatar is a big country?"

Would a friendly country tear up a peace treaty and engage in harassment?
Jia She closed the knife he had drawn, making a swish sound.

"The Great Chu has always loved peace, and the Later Jin was a foreign state of the Great Chu. Now the Tatars are trying to destroy the country, which is really outrageous to all."

"If the Great Chu does not seek justice for the Later Jin, can it still be the suzerain state?" After listening to Jia She's words, Wu Zhenger understood the meaning of Jia She's coming here.

Jia She watched Wu Zhenger leave.

Jia She, who had no interest in sightseeing, went straight back to the embassy where he was staying.

Lin Zhongping told the envoy about the news he had just sent someone to sneak out and get.

But Princess Jincheng was captured.

Jia She nodded slightly, and the emperor's informant came.

The informant dressed as a servant, who was hidden in the embassy, ​​slipped the news into the naan that Jia She was eating.

With just one glance, Jia She knew there was something in the food.

After the informant left, Jia She began to chew slowly until he had food in his mouth. He placed the food on the inner wall of his mouth without changing his expression and continued to eat without changing his expression.

Wuzhen'er has told the Tatar Khan about Jia She's performance.

The Tatar Khan slapped the table in front of him.

"This Great Chu is just taking advantage of the situation to rob."

Wang Ziteng was sitting next to the Tatar Khan. Knowing that it was Jia She who was sent as an envoy, his face was full of murderous intent towards Jia She, but his expression was calm.

The Tatar Khan was so furious that he had no time to pay attention to Wang Ziteng.

"Father Khan, Jia She is a disaster. Father Khan cannot let him return to Da Chu alive!"

Wang Ziteng suddenly spoke up and asked the Tatar Khan to kill Jia She.

When the two armies are fighting, if the envoy is not killed and Jia She is killed, it is equivalent to going to war with the Chu State.

"kill him!"

Beneath Wang Ziteng's calm surface, there is a raging fire.

Princess Jincheng was walking back and forth in her tent. She had already known the news that Jia She had arrived at the Tatar city of Suger.

Now she wants to see Jia She.

Only by meeting Jia She can she truly have a heart-to-heart talk with Da Chu, and only then can Da Chu truly cooperate with her.

"Turan, do you have any way to help me get out of this tent?"

Princess Jincheng placed her hopes on her, the only person who could communicate with the outside world. However, Turan was just an ordinary maid. How could she help Princess Jincheng accomplish such a big thing?

Turan's head was bowed.

Just as Jincheng was thinking hard, Jia She finally opened the note in his hand at night.

Princess Jincheng's mother Zoya was also working hard, and the Ordos tribe began to help after Zoya agreed to the request.

The note that Jia She sent tonight was delivered by Ordos.

The emperor's informant was someone he helped to plant after he discovered the conspiracy.

There were five big words written on the note: Qituoer Silver Shop.

At the same time, Princess Jincheng also had a turning point.

Her mother Zhuoma asked about her daughter tonight with the old Tatar Khan.

When the old Khan mentioned Princess Jincheng, his interest in Zhuoma diminished.

Zhuoma's heart was filled with hatred for the old Tatar Khan who openly favored her but secretly never gave her any power or favor.

"Great Khan, Jincheng has been imprisoned for long enough."

Zhuoma got off the bed, wrapped in a gauze, and knelt in front of the Tatar Khan.

The Tatar Khan looked at Zhuoma in front of him for a long time without saying a word.

Zhuoma's hatred grew stronger.

It was not until the next day that Zhuoma took advantage of the Tatar Khan summoning his ministers and broke into Princess Jincheng's tent with a knife.

The Golden Wolf Guards who were blocking the door saw that it was Zhuoma, the most beloved woman of the old Tatar Khan. Even though they were trying to stop her, they did not dare to get too close.

Princess Jincheng finally met her mother.

Jincheng hugged Zhuoma tightly.

"slim Shady!"

Zhuoma's hand was on Princess Jincheng's head.

"Suffer!"

When Zhuoma's voice rang out, Princess Jincheng began to cry loudly, and then Zhuoma stood guard behind her at an invisible angle, her mouth moving all the time.

Princess Jincheng finally knew the situation outside and felt relieved.

At the same time, Jia She also met the patriarch of the Ordos tribe, the uncle of Princess Jincheng, at his Tol Silver Shop.

"How many troops has Da Chu prepared?"

The first thing the chief of the Ordos tribe said when he saw Jia She was to ask about the situation in Da Chu.

Looking at the sturdy man in front of him who was over 1.8 meters tall and had no brains, Jia She took a sip of the tea on the table.

"How many troops the Great Chu has prepared is not something you can ask."

"But when will Princess Jincheng come to see you?"

Jia She placed the teacup in his hand heavily on the table.

"It was you who proposed the cooperation. Great Chu has begun to dispatch troops to the northwest as promised. Your strategist has been slow to come to see you. Do you think you look down on Great Chu and don't want to complete this cooperation?"

It is extremely impolite to touch someone's financial situation when you meet them for the first time.

The chief of the Ordos tribe knew that he was too anxious, so he suppressed his anxious mood and spoke again.

"If Great Chu really wants to help, then send troops immediately. Marquis Rong is a smart man and should understand the current situation. The princess has alienated the relationship between Khan and Suotu."

"But it doesn't necessarily mean that Suotu will be sent to the battlefield."

"Only now, when many Tatar tribes are in Liaodong, is the possibility great."

Jia She's expression remained unchanged.

The possibility is high, and Da Chu will not act rashly.

It's not just Princess Jincheng who is extending an olive branch to Da Chu. In addition to Princess Jincheng, there is also Suotu.

Suotu also proposed the condition of giving up Liaodong.

Although it is not as good as what Princess Jincheng gave, it is not much different.

Now it depends on who is more sincere.

Jia She stood up from his seat and left without saying a word.

The patriarch of the Ordos tribe became more and more anxious when he saw Jia She's appearance.

What on earth does he mean?
What else could it mean? It means adding money!

That afternoon, Jia She found another note in his mouth.

This was sent by Sotu.

Sure enough, Suotu also became anxious. Looking at the note in his hand, Jia She couldn't help laughing like a pig in his heart.

Now the people sent by the emperor to Liaodong have arrived, and the little fat man has played his due role. The remaining tribes of the Later Jin are fighting even more desperately.

Zhuoma stayed by Princess Jincheng's side. She didn't know whether the Tatar Khan felt guilty or was busy with other things, so she ignored him.

At this time, the Tatar Khan was in a state of panic.

"The wind is blowing, the Great Chu is sending troops to Liaodong!"

With a loud shout, the person who brought the message back from Liaodong at an accelerated speed of 800 miles fainted from exhaustion outside the Tatar Khan's tent.

The Golden Wolf Guard held the letter in his hand and quickly handed it to the Tatar Khan.

In front of all his ministers, the Tatar Khan opened the letter from the Great Chu.

After seeing the Emperor of Great Chu taking the only remaining little prince of Later Jin to the Liaodong border.

The Tatar Khan finally couldn't bear it anymore and slapped the table again.

The letter then spread to all the Tatar officials, and Sotu, who had not yet been removed from his position, saw it for the first time.

There was a gleam in Suotu's eyes. This was giving him a chance.

When the army in the west of Great Chu also reaches the front line, the old man in front of him will definitely send him back. By then, he can use his military achievements to force him to abdicate.

At that time, he would be the legitimate Tatar Khan.

And he is not afraid even if he is not sent.

At present, there are only 30,000 people left in the Tatar tribe and under his command.

If he wants to resist the Great Chu, if he doesn't send him, he can only send the 30,000 people under his command. At that time, he will directly lead the tribe to usurp the throne, which is not a good look.

Suotu suppressed his excitement and passed the letter in his hand to the next person without showing any emotion.

What followed was the sound of anger.

"mean!"

The shouting and cursing continued.

The Tatar Khan was also furious, but in the current situation, there was no other way except to negotiate with the Chu State.

Wang Ziteng on the side lowered his head, trying to lower his presence as much as possible.

He was afraid that the Tatars would make peace with the Chu State, and he would then be handed over to the Chu State.

Wang Ziteng's eyes darkened and he waited for the Tatar officials to leave.

The voice of Wang Ziteng, who was sitting behind the Tatar Khan, rang out.

"Father Khan, Liaodong cannot be given up."

Then Wang Ziteng walked out from behind the Tatar Khan and knelt in front of him.

The Tatar Khan looked at Wang Ziteng in front of him with his eyes slightly narrowed.

He was the one who ordered the fight against the Later Jin, but not only did the reaction of the Great Chu not meet his expectations, it also counterattacked the Tatars.

"Do you remember what I told you?"

Wang Ziteng's voice continued to ring out.

The Tatar Khan did not reply, and Wang Ziteng secretly hated him in his heart. If he could not return to Da Chu, he would rather die in Tatar.

"The fundamental reason why the grasslands cannot move south and conquer Great Chu is that they cannot sustain a long-term war."

"Father Khan knows better than me how strong the walls of the Great Chu are."

"Although the Great Chu has sent troops to support the Later Jin, as long as my father Khan can withstand the pressure and take Liaodong."

"You are the next Lord of the Yuan Dynasty."

Wang Ziteng is still fooling the Tatar Khan.

Until Wang Ziteng's head fell at the last moment, the calm Tatar Khan had already shown his intention to retreat.

He is old and his ambition has long faded.

As Wang Ziteng said, if they can hold on to the pressure, the Tatars will be able to obtain a large granary to support their march south to the Chu State.

But the Tatar Khan in front of him was old, and he really didn't want to take too many risks.

"You retreat!" (End of this chapter)
