One, two, three... the lights of the Yuezhi tribe have been lit. Yang Qingyuan quickly woke up Yunchuan, who was taking a nap at the side. The two arranged their clothes and makeup and rushed towards the Yuezhi tribe.
The Yuezhi tribe also belongs to the Tusang ethnic group, and Yun Chuan is as familiar with the roads here as he is back at home. Yun Chuan not only imitated the Yuezhi guards well, but also quickly brought leg of lamb and kumiss from the kitchen.
The two took the food and followed the route provided by Shengze, and soon arrived at the yurt where Shangdu Khan and Mingcheng lived. Yang Qingyuan lurked behind the yurt, waiting for Yun Chuan to lure the guard who opened the door handle. Yun Chuan looked around and saw three people guarding the door of Shangdu Khan's yurt, and one person guarding each of the two yurts on the left. One of them must be the residence of General Wei Xu.
Yunchuan took the food and walked to the entrance of Shangdu Khan's yurt. He saluted the guards and said, "On the order of King Yelu, I know that all the brave warriors are tired from traveling and traveling, so I will reward you with delicious food and wine."
When Huang Bei's guard saw that King Yelu, the leader of the Tusang Yueshi tribe, was so polite to him, he couldn't help but feel elated and accepted the food with a smile.
Everything went according to Yunchuan's plan. Yunchuan pointed to the two yurts on the left and asked casually: "The two brothers, can you invite us to have something together?"
"No, we can just send some over. We princes and princesses, the most intolerable thing is for us people to leave our posts without permission, so let them keep a good watch over us." A Huangbei guard muttered and directed the others. Pass the food around.
"Oh, it turns out it's not General Wei Xu's yurt. King Yelu also ordered me to entertain General Wei Xu's guards." Yunchuan said upon seeing this.
"Our general's bodyguard? Haha! I don't know where our general offended the princess. Not only does he not have a bodyguard, he also lives in the yurt at the end, just like a janitor." The bodyguard on the side quickly winked at the man. But the guard was obviously dissatisfied with General Wei Xu and disapproved of it.
"How can the princess care about this? But General Wei Xu is the best warrior in the grassland, and there is no problem without the protection of guards." Yunchuan listened to the gossip and thought to himself that Ming Guo was indeed not an ordinary person. For more than a year, she was able to intervene in Huang Bei's military affairs. Deployment, it seems that the position of Queen Huang Bei is not far away. Yun Chuan looked to the side and continued: "Listen, a song has already been sung over there. It seems that we have no chance to see the banquet. Let's not treat our stomachs badly. Come on, let's do this together. A glass of wine, I welcome you all on behalf of the Yuezhi tribe."
After three glasses of wine, the guards became hot-headed. Encouraged by Yunchuan's few words, they began to complain about why they were not accompanied by him: "Who said we are all subordinates of General Wei Xu? The princess wants to establish diplomatic relations with the Wei Dynasty. It’s not like you have to fight against our general all day long.”
It turns out that Mingcheng had so much power in Huangbei that he could govern not only military affairs but also government affairs. "Hey, why are you talking about such nonsense? As I said, it would be better if we went without accompanying you. Wouldn't it be more comfortable to eat and drink here? I heard that your prince and princess in Huangbei strongly opposed the appointment of Princess Mingcheng as the queen. , we have to wait and see from now on. Come on, let’s have another drink!” Yun Chuan said coaxingly, “Do you know the secret of this treasure? I heard that this time a big rock fell from the sky, and the stars were strange, even this The master of precepts who has the most research on the treasure will also come.”
When the treasure was mentioned, the guards all showed great interest. They didn't even bother to eat the leg of lamb in their hands. They all looked over, hoping to get more information. The four guards in the yurts on both sides saw this and didn't care. Duty, also come and form a circle. And repeatedly urged Yun Chuan: "What other secrets are there? Tell me. I said it must be related to the treasure, otherwise we wouldn't have come."
Yun Chuan felt happy, it seemed that he could buy more time for Yang Qingyuan. Yunchuan pretended to be mysterious and waved to the guards. He found a place away from the light and sat facing the yurt. The others quickly surrounded Yunchuan. Yunchuan said: "The value of this treasure is great. I heard that at least ten more Wei dynasties can be built! There are ten thousand luminous pearls hidden in it. Each one is as big as your head. As long as we get one, I won’t have to worry about food and drink for eight lifetimes, I’ll be well-dressed and well-fed every day, and I’ll be accompanied by beautiful women. And…”
At this time, Yang Qingyuan had already sneaked into Shangdu Khan's yurt. He lowered his body and took advantage of the dim light outside the door to carefully look through every object inside, not missing any place where the century-old snow lotus was hidden.
Based on Yun Xi's introduction, the century-old snow lotus is rare in the world and must be stored in a ten-inch box unique to Huang Bei. However, Yang Qingyuan rummaged through it three times, from the suitcase to the bedding and bed, and even it was impossible to put down the snow lotus. Everywhere was missed, but nothing was found. "Isn't it in Shangdu Khan's yurt?" Yang Qingyuan felt unwilling and rummaged through it again before leaving the yurt, hiding aside and helplessly imitating cuckoo calls a few times.
When Yunchuan heard the cuckoo's call, he made an excuse to leave. He rushed to the meeting point with Yang Qingyuan and said, "How was it?"
"I've looked for the three yurts over there, but there are none." Yang Qingyuan frowned and said, "Is it because the information is wrong and they didn't bring the century-old snow lotus?"
"I just learned from the guards that the yurts on the left and right do not belong to their General Wei Xu. Come with me, Wei Xu lives over there, and I heard that there is no one to handle it." Yunchuan listened to the singing and dancing at the banquet, and he was already climaxing. However, thinking that there was not much time left for them, they quickly took Yang Qingyuan to Wei Xu's residence.
The two came to Wei Xu's residence. As expected, the door was empty and there was no light. Yang Qingyuan was about to sneak in when the voices of a man and a woman came from inside. He quickly grabbed Yun Chuan beside him and found a man squatting in the yurt in a hidden place. Also, wait for the right time.
"You let me have a hundred-year-old snow lotus here, but you didn't let me guard it. What are you worried about?" A male voice said in a low voice. "What are you worried about?" There was no accusation at all, but it was said in an ambiguous and teasing way. Yun Chuan wondered if this person was Wei Xu? Why is this dignified General Huang Bei having a private meeting with someone at this time?
Hearing the exact location of the century-old snow lotus, Yang Qingyuan was a little excited. Yunchuan unconsciously held Yang Qingyuan's hand, signaling him to hold still and not move rashly, waiting for the opportunity.
"Your prince and princess won't let me keep the '100-year-old Snow Lotus', because they think I'm so rare for this thing! My general, I won't be guarded by your bodyguards. Please listen to my heart and see what kind of heart you have." A charming female voice sounded, and Yunchuan knew it was Mingcheng as soon as he heard it. But Mingcheng has always been generous, thoughtful and decent. When did he become so charming? The relationship between Wei Xu and her was not at all what the guard described.
"Then let me listen carefully." The male voice became more ambiguous, and then there was a rustling sound and a shy gasping sound. This movement made Yunchuan and Yang Qingyu who were squatting outside the door very embarrassed. Yunchuan couldn't help but blush to the roots of his ears. , lowering his head and trying to find a hole to crawl into. At this moment, Yang Qingyuan realized that his hand was held by Yun Chuan and quickly pulled it out. Seeing this move, Yunchuan felt even more embarrassed and quickly explained, "I just told you not to move."
"Yeah, I know." Yang Qingyuan responded in a low voice, frowning, very impatient, just wanted to go in quickly and get the century-old snow lotus.
"Wait a minute, there's no way we can rush in now." Yun Chuan blushed and said helplessly.
"Are these two people really General Wei Xu, who is known as the first warrior on the grassland, and Huang Bei's Princess Mingcheng?" Yang Qingyuan asked disdainfully.
"The number one warrior was awarded by your Wei Dynasty. Mingcheng, she, she shouldn't be like this." Yunchuan was also extremely annoyed, burying his head in his knees, thinking: Mingcheng, Mingcheng, what path did you choose to abandon Shengze! You say you want glory and power, but why do you waste yourself so much?
After the two people in the yurt were talking about each other, there was another sound of rustling. Later, Wei Xu said provocatively: "You just saw Xia Yi's Hada Khan entering the arena, looking very disappointed?"
"What have I to be disappointed about?"
"Aren't you disappointed that the charming young prince didn't show up?"
"He wanted to take me away at the beginning, but I didn't want to leave with him. Don't you know why I stooped down to Huangbei? Oh~ don't tell me that the most dignified warrior in the grassland is actually jealous?"
"Now that your person and heart are mine, why should I be jealous?"
"The heart is yours. Is it human? You have no say in this." Mingcheng's sultry and charming voice is like a spring breeze tickling an itch, and the sour wine enters the intestines. When Yun Chuan outside the door listens, his heart is itching as if it were brushed by spring grass. , feeling uncomfortable all over.
"Bang!" The sound of cups falling was heard in the room. Wei Xu whispered: "Then I will let him know who you are!"
"Then what? Ask the Wei Dynasty for protection?" Mingcheng said softly, "You don't have to be so impatient. I am willing to endure it for our future and for you."
Mingcheng's words were as gentle as water, tough and affectionate. Yun Chuan imagined that these words, paired with Mingcheng's eyes that shone like crescent moons, and that graceful figure, would captivate all living beings.
Sure enough, Wei Xu in the room was so moved that he hugged Mingcheng tightly and remained silent for a long time.
"What should we do? Are they waiting for the banquet to end before they leave?" Yun Chuan was worried. After the banquet was over, the number of guards would increase, and they would have a rare chance to sneak into the yurt.
Yang Qingyuan had already been anxious and agitated and didn't want to wait any longer. I saw him taking out a piece of black cloth and covering his face, taking out a dagger, and trying to force his way in. Yun Chuan quickly grabbed Yang Qingyuan's hand. Although Wei Xu's title came from the Wei Dynasty, his force was not in vain. Such a robbery would make it even more difficult if things got bigger.
"You can't do this. You wait here. I'll do it!" Yun Chuan stood up and looked around. The surrounding yurts were all dark. Yun Chuan picked up a torch from the lantern not far away and threw it back into the Wei River. In the yurt in front of Xu, the fire became more and more intense in just a moment.
Yang Qingyuan immediately understood Yunchuan's intention and found a secret location to prepare for action. Yun Chuan ran to the place where there were guards in front, shouting all the way: "Oh no, it's on fire! Someone is coming, it's on fire!"
This really alarmed Wei Xu and Mingcheng who were lingering in the yurt, and they quickly left before anyone arrived. This also provides Yang Qingyuan with the best opportunity.
Along with the summer wind, the fire had burned down half of the yurt, and also alarmed the guests at the banquet, who had to end the banquet early to check. Mingcheng had already returned to his yurt, while Wei Xu ran back to the banquet, and then returned with the crowd going to put out the fire. The scene was chaotic with the sound of fire, splashing water, and shouts. Yunchuan, who had mixed in with the crowd fighting the fire, felt proud and secretly hoped that Yang Qingyuan would successfully pick off the three-petal snow lotus.
Seeing that Wei Xu had come back, he took a look at the fire in the yurt next to him. It seemed that it had nothing to do with him, so he prepared to walk straight towards the yurt. But Yang Qingyuan hadn't come out yet, and Yun Chuan couldn't think too much. He grabbed a few handfuls of ashes on the grass nearby and smeared them on his face and clothes. He quickly blocked Wei Xu in front of him and shouted: "You are the famous number one in the grassland." Warrior General Wei Xu."
"Who are you?" Wei Xu was obviously startled by the dirty "guard" who appeared out of nowhere, but he still enjoyed being praised. He stopped and looked up and down, and saw this dirty look. With a messy face, he involuntarily took a step back.
"I'm just a little guard, but I admire you very much." Yun Chuan said flatteringly: "Today I finally see a living person, General Wei Xu, you are truly worthy of your reputation. You are as handsome and tall as the legend. General, you Did you come here specially to help us put out the fire? You are such a good person. You are thinking of us. How do you put out this fire? How do you put out the fire? How do you put it out? trick."
Wei Xu seemed a little helpless. Yunchuan put him on the label of "firefighting" for no reason, and said hehe: "You Yuezhi tribe has many capable people, why do you need me to intervene?"
Yun Chuan saw that Wei Xu was unmoved. It seemed that the flattery just now was not enough and he needed to add more fire. He said: "You are the capable person in our hearts. We, hey, to tell you the truth, all hope to have someone." A mighty general like you will lead us." After saying that, he shouted to the guards who were putting out the fire, "Brothers, General Wei Xu came back specially to help us put out the fire. We all listen to General Wei Xu! He is our commander-in-chief. !”
Wei Xu was pushed to the position of "fire-fighting commander" for no reason by the flattering Yunchuan, but he was really pleased with himself. He didn't expect that his prestige would be spread to Tusang. Wei Xu said: "First spread the water on the outside, and then call in some people to push the sand and gravel over, and surround the outside with the sand and gravel to ensure that the fire does not spread outside."
Yun Chuan thought to himself: It seems that his position as General Huang Bei is not in vain. At first he looked like it had nothing to do with him, but in fact it was already clear in his heart that he was just waiting for a good show. The fire is so big, there are few people fighting the fire, and it is far away from the water source. It is not an easy task to put it out as soon as possible. The best way is to protect it first and then save it.
Yun Chuan was worried that Wei Xu would return to his yurt again, so he quickly patted his horse and said, "General, you are so resourceful. If you hadn't come here, we would all be blind. With you here, we have peace of mind." You are really a great hero on the grassland."
"Hahaha~ You really know how to talk! Who are you talking to?" As expected, Wei Xu was so impressed that he stood up in a daze after being photographed. He stretched out his hands and pointed at the guards who were hurriedly putting out the fire. No plans to leave.
"General, to be honest, I really want to follow you. I can always win the battle with you, how majestic it is!" Yunchuan said cheerfully, looking forward constantly. I was thinking: this scene is so noisy that I can't hear Yang Qingyuan's "cuckoo" call, and I don't know if he has succeeded yet. But seeing that the fire has been gradually brought under control, Wei Xu must be reluctant to lose this credit. It turned out that he had no intention of returning to the yurt, so he had to get out as soon as possible before the leaders of the four major ethnic groups arrived here.
