Ashina Bisuo packed up his luggage, arranged carriages and horses, and went to the Buddhist temple to meet Yaoying.
The flower wall and wooden frame in the courtyard are full of intertwined vines, the green branches and vines are full of fruits, and the grapes are not yet ripe, but they are full, round, and crystal clear.
Bi Su raised his hand and picked two bunches of grapes and sent them into the house.
Yaoying knelt down in front of the long desk, frowning slightly, with a stack of scriptures in front of her.
Bi Su couldn't help but chuckle: "What did the king let you see?"
Yaoying nodded, smiled, pushed aside the scriptures, stood up straight, and motioned for Bi Su to take her seat.
Xie Peng, who was guarding the corner of the room, bowed his head and stepped out.
Sitting on the felt blanket, Bi Suo looked around quickly. The furnishings in the house were still the same as before. There were no brocade tents or soft quilts, only a few large boxes filled with books.
Princess Wenzhao is a very hard-working princess, and she can be at ease no matter where she is.
This is what Bi Suo is worried about, not only the peerless beauty, the charming and delicate attitude of a little lady, the bright and easy-going beauty of a royal princess, and her tenacity. He admires such a woman, so he is even more afraid of Princess Wenzhao approaching Luo Jia .
He was dazed, Yaoying glanced at him and asked, "General, is it inconvenient for the regent to see me?"
Bi Suo came back to her senses, coughed, and said, "The regent has an important business, and it is inconvenient to see the princess. If the princess has something to say, I can speak for the princess."
Yaoying pondered for a while, Sultan Gu's whereabouts were mysterious, and important decrees were conveyed by her own soldiers. She wanted to see each other, but she didn't know that she would have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse Moon. Some of the words were the same as what Bi Su said.
"Have all the Beirong people captured by the general that night returned to Beirong?"
Bi Suo shook his head: "Not yet, I'll go to Beirong tonight and escort them myself."
Yaoying was stunned: "The general will escort them personally?"
Bi Suo's eyes flickered, and he didn't say anything about the national letter written by Luo Jia: "Yes, I personally sent them back to Beirong, and their prince guards appeared in the palace of Wangting, and the Khan of Beirong had to give it to the royal court. An explanation."
Yao Ying didn't ask any further, and said, "I was just about to discuss this matter with the general. Those Beirong people can be of great use."
Bi Su raised her eyebrows.
Yaoying met his scrutiny eyes and said generously: "I was trapped in the Beirong camp, and I heard many secrets of the Beirong royal family. Haidu Aling was an alien adopted by the Wakhan Khan. Khan's sons have been at odds with him for a long time, and the Khan has grown jealous of him. There are many conflicts within the royal family. If the general can make good use of those Beirong people, it can deepen the Wakhan Khan and Haidu. The estrangement between A-Ling."
Bi Su's eyes narrowed slightly, her eyes looking at Yaoying were very different from usual: "How does the princess know that there has been a rift between Haidu Aling and Wakhan Khan?"
Yao Ying chuckled: "Before the Buddha was in urgent need of water and grass, and the general went to Beirong to ask for my dowry. Did Wakhan Khan agree to return the dowry on the spot and scolded Haidu Aling?"
Bi Su touched his chin and said, "Not bad."
Yaoying said firmly: "If other princes take my dowry, the general will go to Beirong to ask for it, and Wakhan Khan will not agree to return the dowry so easily."
Bi Suo recalled the situation that day and nodded: "Indeed, Wakhan Khan was very polite to me, and even scolded Haidu Aling in public..."
His eyes lit up, and he smiled lightly.
"Wakhan Khan is deliberately suppressing Haidu Aling through our royal court!"
Beirong people worship the strong, and they are savage. It is not uncommon for the khans to change hands within a day. Whoever is stronger can become the new khans, and the same is true between fathers, sons and brothers. Therefore, the family relationship within the royal family is weak. Whenever the old khan dies, the tribe will be violently turbulent because of the struggle for power and the throne. A powerful empire can grow rapidly in just a few years, level the grasslands, or it can fall apart overnight.
Wakhan Khan is getting old, Haidu Aling is young and strong, and he is not his own nephew. The old Khan has already begun to guard against Haidu Aling.
Bi Su was excited for a while, frowned, and said, "But this is just our guess, maybe Wakhan Khan is confusing me."
Yaoying nodded, "Perhaps as the general thought, Wakhan Khan was scheming and was just trying to confuse the general at the time, but later on, it was not certain. Haidu Aling's mission to the Royal Court this time confirmed my guess."
Bi Suo narrowed her eyes: "Oh? Why did the princess say that?"
Yao Ying smiled: "General, if you were Prince Aling of Haidu, with a heavy army in your hands, fighting from south to north, and with great ambitions, you would be like me again and again after the royal court and Bei Rong signed a covenant. Is the woman provoking the royal court?"
Bi Suo was stunned, and her eyes fell on Yaoying's face: "The princess looks like a goddess, Haidu Aling is bound to win the princess."
Yaoying's expression was calm: "Yes, Haidu Aling regards me as his prey, but he is an experienced hunter. A calm hunter will not risk his prey alone."
Bi Suo looked at Yaoying, her eyes gradually changed, she couldn't help sitting upright, and her expression became more serious.
"What does the princess mean?"
Yaoying said slowly: "I know Haidu Aling a little bit. He is rough and thin, and his ambition is lofty. He is definitely not a woman who ignores the overall situation. He is confusing Wakhan Khan and Khan. Son, let Wakhan Khan relax his guard."
She was sure it wasn't without reason.
In the book, Haidu Aling was brave and good at fighting and rose rapidly, attracting the jealousy of other princes and the suspicion of Wakhan Khan. The princes set up an ambush to frame Haidu Aling. He was caught in the plot and almost died under the tragic sword. Most of the most trusted personal soldiers around him died.
After the injury was healed, Haidu Aling endured dormancy, pretending to give up on himself because of the injury and the lame leg. For more than a year, he insisted on walking with a limp. Afterwards, he plundered several beauties in the North Desert during a battle. One of the women was known as the first beauty. She was enchanting and charming, and was good at room-in-the-room. , his subordinates advised him to kill him with a knife.
When the Wakhan Khan and his son saw Haidu Aling became a crippled man, drunk and dreamed of death, all betrayed their relatives, and could not go in and out without a beautiful woman, they gradually relaxed their guard against him.
Later, Haidu Aling led his troops into the tooth tent, killed Wakhan Khan with his own hands, slaughtered the Beirong royal family, and became a new Beirong Khan.
When Yaoying was in the Beirong camp, there had been many open and secret fights between the Beirong prince and Haidu Aling. She simply added the fire and lured other princes to snatch Haidu Aling's trophies and intensified the conflict. Afterwards, Bi Suo brought a letter to Wakhan Khan to ask for a dowry, and she buried some organs in the letter to make Beirong Khan be wary of Haidu Aling.
Now there must be tension in the Beirong royal family.
Yaoying said softly: "Haidu Aling is not a person who is bewitched by beauty, he must have had a conflict with the Wakhan Khan and his son, so he deliberately sent an envoy to the royal court and entered the palace at night to make Wakhan Khan think he was An idiot who's dizzy for the sake of women."
After she finished speaking, she smiled, "These are just my guesses. It just so happens that the general is going to the North Rongya tent. The general can pay attention to see if Haidu Aling and the other princes are already in conflict."
Bi Suo's heart shook, she was stunned for a long time, and nodded.
"If everything is as the princess guessed, I can start with those few subordinates to sabotage Haidu Aling Zangzhuo's plan and make Wakhan Khan more vigilant against him."
Yaoying rubbed her palms and smiled, this was exactly what she wanted to discuss with Bi Suo: "Whether Haidu Aling was really impulsive and just rushed to the palace at night or had other plans, the general can take the opportunity to cause trouble, if I guess wrong , the general can adapt to the situation, for example, let Wakhan Khan think that there is an agreement between Prince Haidu Aling and the royal court. In this way, even if Wakhan Khan has never been jealous of Haidu Aling, he should be suspicious. He is."
Bi Su's eyes widened suddenly.
Princess Wen Zhao could actually come up with such a vicious plan!
If the Beirong royal family is calm, they will alienate the Wakhan Khan and Haidu Aling.
If the Beirong royal family is in trouble, they will add firewood and fire to make the fire burn even more vigorously.
In short, no matter why Haidu Aling was sent to the royal court, Princess Wenzhao would pull Haidu Aling into the water, bite off a piece of his flesh, and completely disrupt the Beirong royal family!
Bi Su's expression was too frightened, Yao Ying looked inexplicable, and explained: "The best strategy is to attack the army, and then to attack the enemy, and to subdue the soldiers without fighting is the best policy. We remind the Wakhan Khan to beware of Haidu Aling. , intensifying the contradictions between them, weakening Beirong, and making them overwhelmed, is also one of the tactics to avoid war."
Bei Rong instigated dissension, incited the Central Plains countries to go to war, and wanted to take advantage of the situation and take advantage of it, but she just retaliated.
After Yaoying finished speaking, she stood up straight, and solemnly saluted Bi Suo, saying, "I am not from Wang Ting, I live in the holy city, I shouldn't have interjected in discussing such important matters, only because I am facing the same threat from Bei Rong as your country, so I dare to say it. I hope that the general will not take offense. The general just thinks that I am young and ignorant and talk nonsense."
Bi Suo's palms sweated slightly, and she was silent for a while, then got up and helped Yaoying: "The princess is a guest of the royal court. You know these words, and no one else will know."
Yaoying smiled lightly.
She doesn't care what Bi Su thinks of her, as long as the advice comes in handy.
Bi Suo suddenly asked, "Why didn't the princess advise Wang directly? I'm just a general in the army, and all decisions must be approved by Wang."
Yaoying blinked, her eyes sparkling, with the slyness and playfulness of a girl: "Don't lie to the general, what a noble character the mage is, facing the mage, such conspiracy and tricks... I can't say it."
Tamara is like a lotus standing against the wind, cold and noble, discussing these matters with him, will he frown and drive her out of the Buddhist temple
Bi Su was stunned for a while, then laughed loudly.
"What do you think of the king? He is the monarch of the royal court..."
After laughing for a while, the worries in Bi Suo's heart also dissipated a little.
Luo Jia is right, Princess Wen Zhao has no admiration for him, only pure admiration and gratitude.
Loga is always sober and rational, never bewitched by appearances.
Whether he is Luo Jia, or another identity.
Bi Su got up and left, and when she walked to the corridor, she turned around abruptly and leaned into the room: "Princess, you said something wrong."
Yaoying raised her head: "Huh?"
Bi Suo said earnestly: "Haidu Aling is very ambitious to fight in the south and north. Wang Ting and Bei Rong made a covenant. In order to take away the princess, he provokes the royal court again and again. It may not be entirely a show."
Yaoying shook her head and laughed.
She is naturally beautiful, she has been a beauty embryo since she was a child, and she is also a daughter of the Li family. Even if she doesn't show much publicity, she quickly becomes famous in the Central Plains, and there are as many playboys who adore her as crucian carp crossing the river.
Whenever she travels on horseback, the sons and daughters of aristocratic families compete to chase after her, just to see her more.
Zheng Jing, Xue's Wulang, Pei's son, Lu's son, Cui's son... Li De's subordinates, Xie's personal soldiers...
Many people admire her beauty.
Yaoying believes their love comes from the heart, but so what
She was born in troubled times and grew up among aristocratic clansmen. She understands that there are some things that can arouse a man's desire to conquer far more than beauty, and that is power.
In order to climb to the top of power, a man can give up everything.
This is an era where many heroes are rising together and heroes are coming out in large numbers. Men are busy fighting for power, and beauty is just the icing on the cake for them.
As long as you can add a yellow robe to your body, the world is in the palm of your hand, not to mention the beauty
After Li De pursued the title of Tang Clan, the world lamented his deep affection for his wife, and completely forgot that he resolutely abandoned Tang Clan in order to consolidate his power.
Li Xuanzhen and Zhu Luyun have been infatuated with each other for many years, and they are willing to die for Zhu Luyun, but they still marry Zheng Biyu, a daughter of an aristocratic family, for the crown prince.
People like Haidu Aling will never stop fighting for a woman.
Every move he makes is for his ambition.
Seeing Yaoying's disapproval, Bi Suo grinned.
"Princess, I don't know Haidu Aling, but I'm a man."
When a man is in a position to win against a woman, he can be desperate and take risks.
Yaoying spread her hands.
She didn't care what Haidu Aling was thinking, even if he was detained by that man for half a year, even if he occasionally showed a gentle side, she was still sober. She was taken away by Haidu Aling, and he wanted to tame her.
Bi Suo became interested, leaned on the door frame, and looked at Yaoying up and down.
"The princess is a woman from the Central Plains. The Central Plains pays attention to etiquette. Beirong doesn't follow those complicated rules. We are here too. Whichever man in the tribe is the strongest and bravest can win the love of all women. Haidu Aling is strong and heroic, and the princess is really a little bit more. Don't you mind?"
Yaoying raised her head and looked at Bi Suo like she was looking at an idiot: "The general asked this question, could it be that the general loves people like Haidu Aling?"
Bi Su was choked on the top.
Yaoying looked down at the scriptures.
Li Zhongqian raised her, loved her, loved her, pampered her, how could she be selfish and be tempted by a man who regarded her as a plaything
She respects every sincerity, and even if she can't respond, she won't take it lightly.
Bi Su touched the tip of her nose and turned away with a shy face.
He can now be completely at ease, the princess is so rational, she will never seduce Luo Jia at the risk of being hated by the entire royal court.
…
Bi Su went back to the manor and discussed with his staff for a while, and sent the sorted articles to the Buddhist temple.
"These tactics were suggested by the princess!"
He babbled and relayed Yaoying's original words, and finally said with a stronger tone.
Luo Jia is so noble, she must hate women with deep scheming.
After Tan Mo Luojia read the article, his expression was clear and indifferent, he did not say a word, his eyes were lowered, and he picked up a pen to write down instructions.
Bi Su didn't know whether she succeeded or not, so she exited the meditation room holding the instructions.
Before leaving, he went to the palace.
Princess Chima is holding a banquet. The singing and dancing are staggering, and the crowd is full of drunken guests. You can see princes and ministers hugging the singer for pleasure. The melodious music can't suppress those ambiguous sounds. Drunk life and dream death.
Bi Suo found the half-drunk Princess Chima, pulled away the man who was lying on her, and threw it out, saying, "Princess, I'm going to leave for a few days and go to Beirong."
When Princess Chima heard the words, her sense of drinking receded a bit. She sat up from the couch, her snowy shoulders exposed, "You can't go! It's too dangerous!"
Bi Suo said indifferently: "I am the general of the Central Army, and I was ordered to go to Beirong. What danger can there be?"
He paused, looking a little impatient.
"Princess, I advise you, don't do anything stupid that might hurt Lorgar, and I will continue to send people to guard you while I'm away."
Princess Chima's face sank.
"Luo Jia let that Chinese girl live in a Buddhist temple." She said coldly, "He was bewitched by beauty, abandoned his family and hatred, and also committed the five precepts of non-prostitution. There is a lot of public discussion about the scandal, so instead of persuading him, you came to warn me?"
She raised her head and looked straight at Bi Suo.
"I know, you all say that I am mean, sinister, willful... Compared with the noble Lorgar, I am a vicious woman, and his tolerance makes my hatred seem ridiculous."
"Bisuo, can I not hate seeing my family members die one by one with my own eyes?"
She sneered, her fingers digging deeply into her palm.
"Why does he have to fight against me?! Why? Back then, when I wanted to kill the Zhang family, he was merciful and would not allow me to kill innocent people, okay! I won't kill innocent people! Now? Why does he have to do this to a Chinese girl? Yurong?"
Having said this, Princess Chima calmed down suddenly and thoughtful.
"Luo Jia is always showing mercy to the Han people... Does he know something?"
Bi Suo frowned, picked up the gauze next to her, and put it on Princess Chima's shoulders: "It's not what you think, Luo Jia is just to save people, and Princess Wenzhao saved his life."
Princess Chima sneered.
Bi Su sighed deeply, "The burden on Luo Jia's shoulders is too heavy, don't make trouble for him."
Princess Chima's face was full of anger, her body was shaking, she endured it, restrained her anger, and said coldly, "The people of Beirong are cunning and cruel, take more people with you when you go."
Bi Su smiled, "Don't worry about me, Wakhan Khan is afraid of Luo Jia and dare not touch me."
Said and sighed.
"I heard that you have been feasting with the silverfish in the DPRK every day recently. What's the point? Don't hurt your body."
Princess Chima agreed lightly, her face was gloomy, she watched Bi Su go out, and immediately called the maid: "Bi Su is going to Beirong, you are all staring at the Buddhist temple, I don't believe that Luo Jia saved that Chinese girl just to repay her kindness! They It must have been a long time ago!"
The maid said in embarrassment: "Princess, the palace is not strictly guarded, we can listen to the news... The Buddhist temple is the king's residence, and the guards are all guards from the Chinese army. Our people will be discovered as soon as they approach. And the regent is back, if he is caught He found… "
Princess Chima's brown eyes narrowed slightly, and she cut off the maid's words: "Idiot! If you can't get close, you won't find someone who can get close? No matter how strict the guards of the Buddhist temple are, there will always be some omissions! Listen carefully and find Luo Luo. Evidence of fornication between Jia and the Han girl!"
The maid did not dare to argue any further, and kowtowed.
Princess Chima stood up, picked up a glass of wine, and walked to the window.
Bi Su's figure hurried across the courtyard, walking briskly.
He was loyal to Thamaroka, but Laka sent him to the enemy country.
Chima's brown eyes flashed with hatred, and her fingers clenched the wine glass tightly.
The Tanmo family is not the only prince, Luo Jia, she is the princess of the Tanmo family. Since Luo Jia has let her down again and again, she will take back the authority of the Tanmo family.
The Minister of Chinese and Military Affairs of the DPRK will definitely be on her side.
…
…
After Bi Suo left, Yuanjue was sent to protect Yaoying.
"The princess needs a guide when she goes out."
Yaoying breathed a sigh of relief. Although Tamara had set her homework, she was allowed to leave the Buddhist temple to walk around after the morning class, which was really enlightened and considerate.
Qi Nian, an old man outside the city, sent her news that the first batch of silk and satin in the shop had been robbed, and asked her when the second batch would be sold.
Yaoying told them not to rush to sell, and wait until the goods in the hands of the Hu people are almost sold.
Before leaving, Bi Suo introduced a Sogdian merchant to Yaoying. She asked the Sogdian merchant to help buy a large piece of land. According to the original plan, she moved all the people who lived outside the city and bought a few hundred more. The head sheep, bought some seeds and fruit trees, and let those who can do farm work hurry up and plant mulberry and muggle fruits.
Qi Nian was a steward, and everything was in good order.
The caravan cooperated with Yaoying and promised to help her deliver the news, but Beirong is now deliberately cutting off the connection between the Central Plains and the Western Regions, and the commercial roads in the west are blocked.
Yaoying is not discouraged, a little more hope is always good.
After dealing with the shop, she asked Yuanjue if there were any craftsmen who were good at carpentry in the royal court. Yuanjue recommended a few Persian businessmen who were exiled to the royal court.
Yaoying found the merchants and asked them to help make the wooden utensils she wanted.
The Persians didn't know Chinese, and she was not proficient in speaking nonsense. After a long time of talking with ducks, the Persians promised to make what she wanted.
Yaoying felt that the Persians must not have understood her request, but seeing how confident the other party was, she could only accept it.
After the chores, she began to recruit the guards.
There are many forced exiles in various parts of the Western Regions, and these people can die for a Sassanian silver coin.
Within a few days, Sogdian merchants recruited a group of guards for Yaoying.
Those people, some with black hair and black eyes, some with curly hair and brown eyes, and some with red hair and green eyes, came from various extinct tribes.
Yaoying did not dare to trust outsiders for the time being, and asked them to first guard the old, weak, sick and disabled in Qi Nian, or follow the caravan.
After a busy few days, Yaoying was so tired that her back was sore and her legs were weak.
Just when she was about to take a breath, Yuanjue told her that in a few days, Tanmaraka would be giving a sutra in the morning class, and she asked her to prepare in advance.
Yaoying complained in her heart, what to do to prepare
Could it be that Tamara is going to spot-check her homework
Why is he so serious!
She thought that she only needed to do her daily practice, and she didn't remember anything!
Yaoying didn't dare to refute, she got up early every day for the next few days and sat obediently in front of the desk to read the scriptures.
Early this morning, after she had settled the accounts, she sat in front of the desk and turned over the scriptures. Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and a bunch of grapes flew in from the outside and fell on the long desk. The grapes rolled to the ground.
Yaoying was dizzy and startled when she read the scriptures, and looked at the few yellow-green grapes on the case in a trance.
There was a series of apologies from outside the corridor. Several personal soldiers were fighting in the courtyard just now. They picked grapes and threw them around, and accidentally threw them into the house.
Xie Qing immediately drew his sword, got up and went out to teach those soldiers.
Yaoying shook her hand and stopped Xie Qing: "Aqing, have you ever eaten raisins?"
The author has something to say: Bi Su wiped away her tears: I was wrong, really, I thought that as long as Princess Wenzhao didn't seduce Luo Jia, nothing would happen. I never thought that something would happen!
Yaoying: It's none of my business, I don't have it.
