The Heijia Army temporarily recruited two streets in the outer city, and radiated out with such an unremarkable private house, and set up a camp. At the last gate of the outer city, facing the plain below Yuheng Mountain in the northwest, a temporary official office was established in a post.
When Duan Ling arrived at the official office, he saw a group of party members with feathers on their heads, and they were discussing something fiercely. The moment he saw the leader of the team, Duan Ling immediately shouted and rushed forward.
Helianbo said loudly, "Duan Ling!"
"Helian!" Duan Ling shouted.
The two hugged each other tightly, Duan Ling was extremely happy, but he didn't expect him to come! So he turned over and rode on Helianbo's back, letting Helian carry him, laughing loudly.
"You... don't, don't be sad." Helianbo pointed to Duan Ling's left chest and said, "People... in the past, are all stars in the sky and dewdrops on the ground."
Duan Ling laughed and nodded, knowing that Helianbo was comforting him, thinking that he should already know his identity.
"What are you arguing about?" Duan Ling asked.
"Also, him." Helianbo said.
There is a team of Liao people and a team of Yuan people in the inn. A young man is standing in the shadows, watching Duan Ling in the sun.
"Badu?" Duan Ling let go of Helian's hand and muttered, "Why are you here?"
That young man was Boer Chijin Batu, and Amugu was by his side.
"I know you must be in Jiangzhou." Batu said.
The implication is that he came for Duan Ling. The news of Li Yanqiu's death came from the south, and the three kingdoms of Yuan, Liao, and Xiliang were immediately alerted, and they smelled the wind and rain coming. After the collapse of Li Yanqiu, the next successor and the situation in the south will play a decisive role in the future pattern of the four countries.
Even Yuan, who has been at war with Da Chen for many years and has a long-standing feud with each other, will send messengers to inquire about the news, but Duan Ling did not expect to come to Batu, so he is not afraid of being detained by Chen Guo
"This... This is..." Helianbo turned sideways, slightly blocking Duan Ling, and said, "Don't be afraid of him, this is... Tenzin Wangjie."
Helianbo introduced another young man to Duan Ling. The young man was about the same height as Duan Ling. He had a strong body and wore a sheepskin robe that was very similar to the drawing. Looking at Duan Ling, he thought he was also a Yuan person.
But from the sound of the name, Duan Ling immediately knew that he was from Tuyuhun and was busy saying hello to him.
The young man named Tenzin Wangjie didn't even speak Chinese, so he explained a lot to Helianbo and asked Helianbo to translate. Duan Ling said in his heart that he couldn't finish talking until dawn tomorrow, so he waved his hand and said, "It's okay."
"Friend." Helianbo said, "a friend."
So Duan Ling and Tenzin Wangjie hugged each other, and it's okay for everyone to be more silent than to speak. The person sent by the Liao Kingdom did not know each other. It was a man in his twenties.
"I'm going down to Yalulu." The man saluted Duan Ling, "It's a matter of peace in the left middle of the Northern Court of the Great Liaoning Province."
The left and right Zhongping affairs are the staff under the King of the North Court. After the death of Yelu Dashi, the North Court was reorganized. With such a young royal family coming up, maybe Yelulu will be the future King of the North Court. Duan Ling said that Yelu Zongzhen is really enough. Face yourself.
Yelulu took a document and handed it to Duan Ling, who took it knowingly. Seeing Shuluduan following in the team, Yelulu must have been ordered to go to Yecheng first, but did not see Duanling, and then came to Jiangzhou with Shuluduan.
"The internal affairs of the state." Duan Ling said, "I am overwhelmed, and I have offended you a lot. I will let you all see a joke."
The inner city was occupied by Han Bin, and everyone saw it without saying anything. Xie You arranged for them to stay temporarily. When Batu came, Duan Ling had a plan, and whispered to Wu Du, "I have a way to get in with them."
Wu Duzheng looked at Batu vigilantly and motioned to Shuluduan, who then came over and listened to Wu Duan's instructions. Wu Du asked him to bring some more people to watch Batu, so as not to cause any trouble.
"I don't worry about others."
Wu Du and Duan Ling walked outside the inn and said earnestly, "Do you think Bo'er Chi Jinba is here for the funeral?"
Duan Ling knew the meaning of Wu Du's words: Batu was obviously here to pick up the leak. In his heart, most of him thought that after Li Yanqiu's death, he would be helpless, and regaining the throne would be in vain. I just came over to see the situation, maybe I can get him back.
"You can chat with them." Duan Ling said, "I'll go ask Batu."
"Don't get caught again." Wu Du said, "You've already fallen into their hands twice."
Duan Ling didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "No way."
There is a black armored army in Jiangzhou to protect him, so that he can still be captured, so Xie You doesn't have to mess around. Duan Ling returned to the inn and saw that Helianbo and the young man from the Tuyuhun tribe had been taken to their respective places for resettlement, and Shuluduan and Yelulu had also left. The group of people who were arguing just now finally gradually settled down.
The rest of Batu was still standing in the inn, giving orders to Amugu in a low voice. When Duan Ling came, the two stopped talking. Batu signaled Amugu to go first, and Amugu turned and left.
The two stood quietly in the inn, and the afterglow of the setting sun came in.
"Come out for a walk?" Duan Ling said.
Batu brushed off his robe and dusted off the flying dust, followed Duan Ling nonchalantly and walked out of the inn.
Jiangzhou Long Street is shrouded in the sunset, and in the endless distance outside the city, at the foot of Yuheng Mountain, the Yujiang River turns south, merges into the Yangtze River, and rolls eastward.
"It hasn't arrived in three years." Duan Ling said, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
Batu looked at Duan Ling and stopped.
"In your whole life, there are too many people who treat you well." Batu said, "I am so sincere that you often feed the dogs to me, I am used to it."
Duan Ling laughed and said, "If you really think so, I won't come forward to see you, thank you."
Duan Ling was still a little moved, he knew that Batu still wanted to work hard.
"Your uncle passed away, I know that you are going to bring those people back to Cai Gou to seize the power." Batu said again, "I want to come over and have a look and help you, it's useless to help, so I can take you away. , lest you die."
"You've changed." Duan Ling was surprised to find that when Batu met this time, he was no longer full of thorns and edges and corners, and he didn't even start with a few words.
"I think about it." Batu said, "After I went back, I read some of your Han Chinese books. I didn't have time to read them. It was read to me by the book officer. I used to be wrong. I was too fierce for you."
Duan Ling couldn't believe that Batu would say "I was wrong in the past". Although Duan Ling thought that reading could change people, he didn't think that it could change Batu.
Batu still had the arrogance of a young man in his brows, but he had become a lot more restrained, vaguely vague, with a majesty similar to Yelu Zongzhen in his eyes.
"If you really know me," Duan Ling said, "you know that even if I fail, I won't leave."
"Well," Batu said, "that's why I came here."
Duan Ling said, "Do me a favor."
Batu said: "You arrange it, Helian is also here to help you, that kid almost got into a fight with us as soon as we met."
Duan Ling said, "Then... I have arranged to call you, so you can rest first."
Duan Ling was about to leave, but Batu stopped him.
"Duanling." Batu said.
Duan Ling: "?"
Batu said, "I am married."
Duan Ling was startled for a while, then laughed and said, "Congratulations, Batu! Your wife must be very beautiful!"
Batu just stood silently and looked at Duan Ling. Only then did Duan Ling know why Batu's attitude was so different this time, maybe he really let it go.
"I married Tuotuo's youngest daughter," Batu said. "I was pregnant, and they all said she would be a beautiful girl."
"That's great." Duan Ling said with a smile, "After becoming a father, you have to be a little more mature."
Batu didn't speak, with a slight smile in his eyes. Duan Ling felt a little sigh in his heart, but he didn't expect Batu to be a father, and finally came over with a smile and hugged him.
"Drinking in the evening, I'll let you guys catch the wind." Duan Ling said, "I'll get someone to prepare it."
That night, Xie You set up a new station and let people set up a feast. Yao Fu was inconvenient to show up, so he sent Zheng Yan over to chat with Helianbo. Helianbo was also married to Yao Jing, and they had a boy who was almost two years old.
"Since everyone is here tonight for me," Duan Ling said, "please take a look at me and temporarily change the fight. After all, in this world, there are many wars, and there are not many times to sit and drink together. "
Everyone nodded one after another. They didn't come here for another dispute. They all hoped that after Da Chen's new monarch succeeded the throne, he would have a new diplomatic plan and no more wars on the frontier. Hearing this, they raised their glasses and drank it all. This night, I only talked about family affairs, not state affairs. Yelulu had followed Yelu Zongzhen for many years and knew a little about the stories of these young people, so they chatted a few words along with them.
During the meeting, Helianbo stammered to learn his son's words again, making the whole room laugh. After Batu was drunk, he just kept talking about Duan Ling's time in Shangjing. Duan Ling was afraid that he would talk too much, and some ears leaked from the wall, so he kept interrupting, but Batu repeatedly mentioned it. He went.
When the second watch was over, Shulu came over and bowed to Duan Ling to hear the news. Duan Ling knew that Wu Du was ready. After leaving the table, he joined Helianbo, Yelulu, Batu and Tenzin Wangjie. It was agreed that they would personally take them into the city at that time, and they would gather outside the city tomorrow at You Shi, and then go back and report to Li Yanqiu.
"It's too dangerous." Li Yanqiu said after listening to Duan Ling's plan, "What if you are recognized?"
"The Wu Independent Society is secretly protecting me." Duan Ling explained, "As soon as we set off, the Wu Independent Society will bring people into the city."
"I'm afraid he won't let you in." Li Yanqiu thought for a while and replied.
"Yes." Duan Ling explained, "As long as there are Buerchijin Batu and Helianbo, Han Bin can't ask for it, because they can just be the witnesses to identify Cai Yan's identity."
