Chapter 537 Mediation
Considering that the top-secret plan to rescue the old Khan could be detected by Zhaoming in advance, and an ambush was set up, God knows if there is Zhaoming's eyeliner among the senior officials of Yu State. It's better to put this bronze fragment here with Lu Yunan.
"good."
Lu Yunan did not refuse, and put away the bronze fragment.
Tap, tap, tap.
The hooves of the horses approached quickly, and Lu Yunan's Heishan people came to the front and dismounted one after another, and one of them led two ownerless horses.
Lu Yunan took the Turkic costume handed over by his subordinates, put it on his body, and then took out a human face camouflage from the horse's luggage, and covered his face.
"The horse is left to you,"
Lu Yunan turned around, "Then, see you someday."
"See you in the future."
Li Ang nodded, watching the other party step on the stirrups, get on the horse's back, shake the reins, and lead the crowd away.
The smoke and dust of the cavalry gradually moved away, gradually shrinking into tiny black spots.
Until the opponent climbed over the hill and completely disappeared from sight, Li Ang breathed a sigh of relief, stepped on the stirrups, and rode on the horse.
He used moss to disguise himself as a Turkic appearance, and used psychic paper to transform into a way out. Without much effort, he passed many checkpoints and sneaked into a small city less than a hundred miles away from the Turkic royal court.
He took the rein and walked along the street, and came to a slightly deserted snack bar.
The shop owner with a big beard opened the curtain and walked out, asking in a rough voice: "What do you want to eat? Leg of lamb or lamb soup?"
Li Ang said in Turkic: "Two bowls of mutton soup, three fat and seven thin, add more scallions, another flax cake, and a cup of Kumis."
Khumisi is kumiss, which is fermented from mare’s milk. It is usually brewed in spring and summer, and it is hard to find in autumn and winter.
The store owner's eyes flashed, and he still said: "Kumia is gone."
"Milk is also available."
Li Ang found a place to sit down, and the store quickly prepared and delivered the food. After eating and drinking enough, he came to the backyard of the store under the pretext of going to the bathroom.
The store owner is already waiting there.
Just as Turkic will send spies to Yu State, Yu State will also send spies to garrison Turkic, and the conversation just now is the secret signal for the meeting.
Li Ang asked straightforwardly: "How is the situation in the royal court? Who is in power now?"
The shopkeeper was startled when he heard the words. He didn't know Li Ang's identity, and he wondered why the contact person would ask such a question that everyone knew, and replied: "The old Khan passed away due to illness two days ago, and his soul returned to the Longevity Heaven. Ashderkoro supported the old Khan's eight-year-old grandson, and Ashina Modu succeeded to the throne."
The old Khan died. The grandson succeeded to the throne, and the prime minister Ashderkoro was still in power.
Li Ang was silent when he heard the words. He and Jia Luo were trapped in Liyuan for three to four days, and this is what they heard when they came out.
This also means that Qiu Feng and He Fanshuang's backup plan also failed.
He rummaged around in his arms, picked out a small jade pendant, and handed it to the shop owner, "I need to use a close worm."
The owner of the shop took the jade pendant and examined it carefully. Based on the complicated patterns and patterns on it, he determined the authority of the other party, and then took Li Ang to the back room, and dragged out an iron box from the stone bricks in the corner of the debris pile.
Open the iron box, take out old clothes and other covers, and a close-footed insect lives in it impressively.
The store owner took out a soundproof note and pasted it on the wall, then walked out of the room and closed the door.
"Hello?"
Li Ang switched back to the original voice, "It's me."
"Leon?!"
Gallo was extremely pleasantly surprised, and quickly lowered his voice and asked, "Where are you?"
"Knotbone City."
Climbing up from Liyuan after untold hardships, hearing the voice of the old man at this moment, Li Ang naturally had mixed feelings in his heart.
But right now is really not the time to exchange pleasantries, Li Ang is straightforward and asks the most concerned questions.
How did the old Khan die, and the whereabouts of Qiu Feng and the others.
After Jia Luo's explanation, the whole story was finally revealed to Li Ang.
That day at the Liyuan Cliff, Li Ang and Lu Yunan fell into the abyss. Because people from Taihao Mountain might come after them at any time, and Qiu Feng and his whereabouts were unknown, Jia Luo had to return to the royal court first.
That night, they received the news—Qiu Feng and the others managed to get rid of Yuansou, escaped from Tongluo City, and successfully reunited with Jialuo.
According to the original plan, with the help of the Ashina clan, the group led by Shen Tuyu sneaked into the Khan's camp, but only found the frozen body of the old Khan - he probably died after the banquet a few days ago. died.
Khan is dead, so there is only a backup plan.
Shen Tuyu asked Sui Yi and others to evacuate first, concealed his identity, caused riots, and led away Taihaoshan and Langyuan monks,
Let the clansmen of the Ashina clan rob the ice coffin and rescue the heirs of the Ashina clan who were imprisoned by the Prime Minister Ashder Koro.
The royal city was in chaos, and the two sides of the Astir and Ashina confronted each other, accusing each other of murdering the old Khan. The two sides fought each other and almost triggered a civil war.
The overly intensified conflict forced the monks from Taihao Mountain and Wolf Garden to give up their pursuit of Shen Tuyu and return to Wangcheng to mediate the situation.
After a series of complex political mediation, mediation of conflicts, and distribution of benefits, the civil strife was finally quelled and the following ruling was made.
The position of Great Khan is inherited by the younger grandson of the old Khan who did not participate in the banquet,
Ashi Dekoro still holds the position of prime minister, but two other prime ministers will be appointed, who will be assumed by scholars from the Wolf Garden outside the two clans, so as to share the power equally.
Such a judgment seems to be an acceptable outcome for all parties,
The Ashina clan retained the position of Khan, the Ashina clan remained the prime minister, and the Wolf Garden gained political influence.
For Taihao Mountain, the succession of the Turkic young master can slowly guide him to the belief of Haotian, making Turkic become as pious as Zhou Guo Jing Guo,
Even for the State of Yu, this result is still acceptable - the strange cause of death of the old Khan will become a thorn between the two clans, which can hinder the unity and cooperation of the two clans and delay them from devoting all their strength to the war against the State of Yu ,
Even the State of Yu can choose allies from them to mobilize the State of Yu to split the civil war.
Li Ang, who got the information from Jia Luo, comforted the girl a few words and told her to keep the wolf head armor, then hung up the communication and called Yu Guoxue Palace.
Jijiu Chen Danqiu was equally astonished at the news that Li Ang was still alive—during the past few days when the latter disappeared, Xuegong and Yu State tried their best, and even sent spies in Jing State to search along the surface of Qianli Liyuan, trying to find him. Back to Leon.
Unexpectedly, he came back by himself.
Li Ang cut off the head and tail, and only said that he and Ghost Spade's corpses fell off the cliff, and they managed to climb up in the past few days, without revealing Lu Yunan's news.
At the end of the communication, Li Ang rejected Chen Danqiu's proposal to send someone to pick him up and return to Yu State——Zhaoming's eyeliner has infiltrated Yu State's senior management, even the academy.
He can't believe anyone now, and wants to return to Yu State by himself.
