After dealing with Uli's matter, Alslen looked at the area on the left on the map, which is the territory of the Kipchaks to the west of the Elonqen Grassland... ···
A few decades ago, the Luobi people were the overlords across the east and west grasslands, while the Kipchaks were their servants at their mercy. However, more than ten years ago, the Kipchaks began to have strong men from heaven, and a generation of heroic leaders Huo Du He came out of the sky and united all the Kipcha tribes closely around him and worked hard to govern. After ten years of dormancy and waiting, they finally got the chance to drive the Luobei people out of the western part of the grassland in one fell swoop.
The reason why Alsleng became Luobi Khan is because his father, the previous Luobi Khan Shuodezabu, died tragically under the scimitars of the Kipchaks during the Western Expedition to Kipchak, while Alsleng was When there were internal and external troubles in Luobei, he protected the most lush Erunqen grassland for the Luobi people. Therefore, he accumulated enough prestige and was elected as the Great Khan by the Luobi tribes.
Although they will still control the Elonqen Grassland, the Luobei people were mostly at a disadvantage in the several wars with the Kipchaks. They were invaded by the Kipchaks several times. It was precisely because of the Kipchaks' eagerness to , so that the Luobei people did not dare to go south to plunder on a large scale in the past ten years, for fear that their homes would be stolen by the Kipchaks when they went south.
This time too, under the repeated suggestions of the internal war faction, Alsileng not only deployed more than 100,000 troops on the border between Luobei and Youyan, but also led the most elite Juchi cavalry to the border. He looked ready to move southward on a large scale.
However, Alsleng had not made the decision to go south for a long time. He wanted to take advantage of this critical period of Zhao Fuqu's counterattack to extort some benefits from Ye Mingsheng, so that the Luobi people could He survived the bone-chilling winter on the grassland, but he underestimated Ye Mingsheng's determination. Ye Mingsheng didn't listen to him at all, and put on a posture of coming if you have the guts, which made Alsleng somewhat difficult to ride a tiger. ···············
Faced with Ye Mingsheng's unabashed provocation, Alsileng of course wanted to send his troops south to invade Yijing City and teach Ye Mingsheng a severe lesson. However, as a Luobi man, the Great Khan could not do this. Everything he did All decisions must be based on the interests of the entire clan!
Looking at the map, Alslen suddenly asked:
"What's the situation of the Kipchaks now?"
Listening to Alsleng's inquiry, his attendant said without hesitation;
"The Great Khan, according to the report of our spies, the Kipchaks are very quiet now. The three Tiger Divisions and the five Eagle Divisions are all in their respective locations without any unusual movement!"
After receiving such an answer, a faint smile appeared on Alsleng's face and said:
"Huo Du, you old guy is really as cunning as a fox on the grassland!"
After listening to Alsleng's words, his attendant seemed to understand something, and asked Alsleng tentatively:
"Great Khan, are you saying that the Fengwu army that killed Master Batu was faked by the Kipchaks?"
Alsleng said directly after hearing this:
"Batu died near Yi Jing. Regardless of whether Ye Mingsheng ordered it or not, he will be considered to have done it! If Ye Mingsheng really wanted to kill Batu to vent his anger, there was no need for him to do it while he was still within the scope of Yi Jing. , he can wait until Batu comes to the border before taking action..."
Speaking of this, Alsileng didn't have any warning. Suddenly he hit the location of the Kipchak Khanate on the map with an old fist and said viciously:
"These Kipchak dogs are indeed as greedy as hungry wolves. Do you know why they remain quiet? Their purpose is to wait for us to attack Youyan. Seeing that we are trapped under those fortified cities of Youyan and cannot escape, they can Let’s take the opportunity to seize the Elonqen Grassland!”
After listening to Alsleng's explanation, the waiter suddenly looked like he had a sudden realization, and said to Alsleng with great admiration:
"The Great Khan is so wise and powerful that even the Kipchak Dog's cunning tricks were discovered by the Great Khan at a glance!"
Alslend paid no attention to the compliments from his attendants and just coldly ordered:
"Give Temuha an order to have his 50,000 troops attack Yuyang in three days. Tell him not to attack Yuyang City and just destroy the villages outside Yuyang City. I only give him two days. We must evacuate from Yuyang in two days!",
"Order to Mengsa. After Temuha launches an attack on Yuyang, he will lead 10,000 elite cavalry to rush forward quickly and go straight to Yi Jing. Give Ye Mingsheng a good scare, and then retreat after shooting a few rounds of arrows. Come out, Temuha will protect him in Yuyang! The rest of the tribes are not allowed to act without my order, and those who disobey the order will be killed without mercy!"
"Yes!" The attendant bowed and replied:
After giving the order to fight, Alsileng's eyes flashed with fleeting fatigue. Although he had assembled a large number of troops on the border of the Zhou Dynasty, he had no intention of fighting with the Fengwu Army because of the threat from the Kipchaks. But now that he is aware of the Kipchaks' conspiracy, he no longer wants to compete with the Fengwu Army!
Unfortunately, although he is the great Khan of Luo Bei, it does not mean that he can do whatever he wants...
In recent years, Dazhou goods have been circulating everywhere in Luobei. Both the lower-class herdsmen and the upper-class nobles like Dazhou goods. However, their goods cannot be sold at high prices in Dazhou merchants. The only way to sell them is at high prices. Alsleng's war horses were prohibited from being sold to Zhou Dynasty for the sake of his own strategic security.
And this means that the Luo Bei people can't buy enough of the goods they want. Since Luo Bei, who is so greedy by nature, can't buy enough, they think of plundering their ancestral craftsmanship!
Therefore, within Luobei, the voices calling for going south to plunder the Great Zhou Dynasty are getting louder and louder. Now this voice has grown to the point where Alsleng, the Great Khan, cannot ignore it. In addition, the Kipchaks are The continuous defeats led to many conflicts within Luo Bei.
Therefore, this time the troops were sent south to Alslen. On the one hand, they wanted to respond to the growing internal calls to go south. On the other hand, they also wanted to use this to win a victory and ease internal conflicts. The Luobei people are a nation that believes in power. If Alslen Leng has been unable to meet internal needs, so this is a fatal injury to his rule and may shake his position!
Because of this, even though he had felt the prying eyes of the Kipchaks behind him, Alslen could only bite the bullet and continue. If he led his troops to retreat directly at this time, his prestige within Luobei would completely collapse. , abandoned by his subjects····················

Liaoyang, Dongning
Wang Fusheng, the housekeeper of Murong Mansion, walked to Murong Qingwu under the guidance of Xiaohuan. Murong Qingwu, who was painting, put down the brush in his hand and nodded when he saw Wang Fusheng's appearance and said:
"Butler Wang, you are here!"
Wang Fusheng bowed to Murong Qingwu and said apologetically;
'My lax management of my subordinates has frightened the young lady. Please punish me! '
Murong Qingwu smiled and said:
"People make mistakes, horses make mistakes, and it is inevitable for you, Steward Wang, to make a mistake. Besides, am I fine now? I just need to find out what happened!"
Wang Fusheng nodded gratefully and explained:
"I have basically found out the matter. Miss, you had a conflict with a grain merchant named Chen Song at the soup kitchen in the east gate some time ago. Later, the master found out various crimes of this man, ransacked his home and imprisoned him. He was released from prison a month ago, and he had a grudge against Liu Dakui, who bribed the cook in the kitchen. They put arsenic into the sweet and sour fish and wanted to poison the young lady to take revenge!"
Listening to the results given by Wang Fusheng, Murong Qingwu frowned slightly and seemed a little surprised. After thinking for a few seconds, she raised her head and said to Wang Fusheng:
"Then where are Chen Song and Liu Dakui now?"
Wang Fusheng heard this and said without thinking:
"After we investigated thoroughly, the master immediately sent people to arrest him. However, Chen Song openly resisted arrest with weapons and was beheaded on the spot. Liu Dakui committed suicide at home by taking poison out of fear of crime..."
Hearing that these two people were now dead, a strange color flashed in Murong Qingwu's eyes, and then he said to Wang Fusheng:
"In that case, let's leave it as it is. I'm sorry to bother you, Butler Wang!"
"No trouble, Miss, you are too polite. I want to thank you for your magnanimity!" Wang Fusheng said gratefully:
After thanking Murong Qingwu profusely, Wang Fusheng left slowly, and after he left, Xiaohuan said angrily:
"Miss, it turns out that you are the bad guy Chen Song. Not only did he sell the moldy rice, but he also tried every means to prevent you from giving porridge, miss. He refused to repent after being imprisoned. It would be very satisfying for such a person to die!"
Murong Qingwu said leisurely after hearing the words;
"Do you also think he wants to harm me?"
Listening to Murong Qingwu's words, Xiaohuan had a look of confusion in his eyes and said:
"Miss, didn't Butler Wang say it was him? Could it be that Butler Wang lied to us?"
Murong Qingwu shook his head when he heard this and said:
"Steward Wang has been serving my Murong family for three generations. He is naturally trustworthy. However, this is Liaoyang and some people may be able to cover up the sky with one hand..."
After Murong Qingwu finished speaking, Xiao Huan's eyes became even more confused. Seeing this, Murong Qingwu smiled lightly and said:
"What exactly is going on? Let's find someone who understands and ask!"
As soon as these words came out, Xiaohuan immediately became alert and asked Murong Qingwu:
"Miss, you won't abandon me and sneak out alone like last time, right? This is absolutely not possible. If the master knows that I didn't watch the miss, he will definitely punish me to practice!"
Upon seeing this, Murong Qingwu shook her head and said:
"The target for the two of us to act together is too big! It's easy to be discovered!"
Xiaohuan said firmly:
"No, I must follow Miss! I can protect you, Miss!"
Looking at Xiao Huan who had a firm attitude and said, "If you don't take me with you, don't even think about it," Murong Qingwu nodded helplessly. An hour later, a young man with red teeth and white teeth and his little book boy came to Changchun. Outside the mountain medical center, Murong Qingwu, who was disguised as a young master, ordered Xiao Huan:
"You keep watch for me outside, and I'll be right back when I go!"
Xiao Huan, who was dressed as a book boy, nodded seriously. Looking at her cute appearance, Murong Qingwu couldn't help but touched Xiao Huan's face and said:
"I didn't expect Xiao Huan that you would look so good after you changed into men's clothes. I will give you more clothes in the future!"
Murong Qingwu's words made the little girl flush with embarrassment, and she murmured in a low voice:
'I do not want it! '
After teasing Xiao Huan, Murong Qingwu straightened her clothes, then waved her folding fan and walked into the Changshan Medical Center...
After a cup of tea, the last patient walked out of Pei Zhixiu's consulting room. Murong Qingwu, who was pretending to be a young man, walked in immediately. Seeing her appearance, Pei Zhixiu frowned slightly and said to Murong Qingwu seriously;
"This is my place to treat illnesses and save lives!"
After closing the door tightly, Murong Qingwu met Pei Zhixiu's eyes and nodded matter-of-factly:
"I am your patient!"
After finishing her words, Murong Qingwu continued:
"If someone hadn't reminded me before, I would have been poisoned in my home two days ago. I just want to ask you one question here. Why is she chasing me so hard that she must kill me?"
Although Murong Qingwu did not say who "she" was, Murong Qingwu believed that Pei Zhixiu understood what she meant. Under Murong Qingwu's gaze, Pei Zhixiu was silent for a while and then slowly said:
"What makes you think I know the answer?"
Regarding Pei Zhixiu's rhetorical question, Murong Qingwu said very frankly:
"Since I came to you, I naturally checked your background. I know that you are the woman who has been with Ye Mingsheng for the longest time. Ye Mingsheng took you with him even when he became famous and unexpectedly attacked Liu Jing, which is enough to show his love for you. , and another very important point is that your relationship with her doesn’t seem to be very good!”
At the end of the sentence, Murong Qingwu secretly increased her tone and glanced at Pei Zhixiu meaningfully, as if there was something in her words...
Listening to Murong Qingwu's words, Pei Zhixiu fell into silence again. There seemed to be a trace of reminiscence in his eyes, as if he was remembering Ye Mingsheng, who was just a commander at the time and took her from the palace capital to Luo'an across the Great Zhou Dynasty. After a cup of tea, Pei Zhixiu ended the meeting and returned to the present moment. Then she met Murong Qingwu's eyes and said:
"Murong Qingwu, I can tell you the answer to your question, but before that, Murong Qingwu, you also have to answer me a question!"
"Did you meet Ye Mingsheng in Luo'an when he was still the commander of the Great Zhou Forbidden Army before his surprise attack on Liu Jing?"
