It's freezing and snowy. It's the supreme enjoyment in Yumen pass to cook a pot of mutton soup and chew two pieces of mutton pancakes.
After wandering in the barracks outside the city for a day, Qin mubai and Xue Rengui were hungry, so they ate a full meal first. Later they went to the kitchen to have a look and couldn't help laughing. The so-called new year's Eve dinner, that is, pancakes and mutton soup, is just a few more jars of milk wine.
However, Chen Yan prepared so many of these things that she could eat for at least 20 people. Qin mubai was curious and asked who she had invited. At first, Chen Yan just laughed. Later, she couldn't help asking him again and again, and then she replied, "people have come thousands of miles to help you. Shouldn't you have a new year's Eve dinner?"
"Oh, the generals of Turk and Huihe, yes, yes." Qin Mu nodded his head and said a few words. Out of the kitchen.
Chen Yan shakes her head and smiles, "pretend!"
Xue Rengui also laughed at their conversation and said, "mubai, I want to tell you something."
"I know what you want to say about Xuelian, right?" Qin Mu Bai grinned and sat down next to Xue Rengui to drink some hot soup. Ba Za mouth said, "in fact, these days, I have been thinking about, how to deal with this little girl."
"How to deal with it?" Xue Rengui was stunned. "She's not the enemy."
"Not the enemy, but more difficult to deal with than the enemy." Qin Mu Bai twisted his brow and said. "In fact, I understand the heart of Xuelian. After my observation, I have a little understanding of her character. She is a very upright and simple girl with a different kind of wild charm, which is enough to attract any man. From the perspective of men and women, no man would refuse such a woman. But from the perspective of the overall situation, I have to think more about the consequences. "
"What are the consequences?" Xue Rengui asked confusedly, "although Xuelian is a nobleman in the grassland, the asna family has long been in decline. She only has a little noble blood in the eyes of grassland people. Besides, there is nothing special about her. She and her sister are recognized as great beauties on the grassland. No man does not want to pursue them. But they have never been in love. Although Xuelian is very strong in martial arts and can bend her bow like a man, she is actually an ignorant girl. Otherwise, how can you not even see your face, just rely on some rumors to admire you so far? "
"You are absolutely right. At the beginning, Princess Wencheng was just like her. Women are born for love, young girls, the pursuit of love is more blind and fanatical. This seems unreasonable to us, but in their hearts, they are naturally unrepentant. " Qin mubai sighed and said, "as I said, I don't know much about Xuelian. I don't like it or hate it. I have to leave her in the cold. "
"Forced? Why? " Xue Rengui asked.
"Politics." Qin Mu Bai spit out these two words, drank a few mouthfuls of soup, silent for a long time.
Xue Rengui thought to himself and seemed to have some understanding, but he still didn't think it through, so he waited for Qin mubai's following.
"Rengui, think about your experiences on the grassland carefully." Qin mubai reminded, "when you get to the grassland, you will find that the asna people have been exterminated by Xue yantuo, right?"
"Yes." Xue Rengui nodded, "Xue yantuo's leader, Yi Nan, is so ambitious that he wants to unify the grassland and establish a Khanate. The first one to be eliminated is the aristocratic ASHNA tribe of the Old Turkic Khanate. Xuelian's parents and clansmen were all killed, and the asna family was almost uprooted. But the blood lotus sister because goes out to visit the aunt, survives
"Their uncle is tumindu, the chief of Huihe, right?" Qin mubai said.
"Yes. Xuelian and Xiyan are half sisters. Xuelian's mother is a Royal Princess from the Tang Dynasty. Xiyan's mother is from Huihe. She has a younger sister who is married to tumidu. " Xue Rengui said.
"Later, you defeated Xue yantuo and almost killed Zhenzhu Khan in front of the battle. After that, Li Ji led the king of the Tang Dynasty to fight against Xue Yanyi. " Qin mubai said, "at that time, tumindu, the leader of Huihe, raised the flag of Xuelian sisters, the descendant of Ashina family, in the name of Tang Dynasty. They gathered nine tiele tribes to form a coalition army to attack Xue yantuo. That is at that time, you were elected as the commander of the United forces and married Xuelian's sister Xiyan. Is that right? "
"Exactly. It's Li Ji who is in charge of marriage. " Xue Rengui said.
Qin Mu Bai laughed and said: "regardless of whether the blood Lotus Sisters are really emotional, they are used by her uncle. This big Huihe leader has no ambition under the barbarians. "
"Oh?" Xue Rengui was slightly surprised, "how can it be? In my opinion, he admitted his enthusiasm and devoted himself to serving the Tang Dynasty as the suzerain's country. Only then did he agree to work hand in hand with him to fight against Xue yantuo. "
"You didn't do anything wrong. In the circumstances at that time, you must join hands to fight against the enemy. At that time, tumido must have been sincere, because his desire to survive was more urgent than yours. " Qin Mu Bai twisted his brows and said, "however, people's desire will continue to expand and upgrade. When Xue yantuo, the grassland overlord, was knocked down, the leaders of each grassland tribe would think about a question: who would be the next grassland overlord? How dare you say that vomit fans don't think about such problems? Would he have no idea? "Xue Rengui deep lock eyebrows gently nodded, said: "good At first, tumido wasn't very enthusiastic about me, because we were just a defeated army on the run. Later, after the first World War, his attitude changed immediately, and he began to gather the grassland tribes to form a coalition. Although I was elected commander-in-chief of the coalition forces at that time, after all, all the tribes were summoned by him. Therefore, in fact, Xue was just a pioneer in front of the battle, and the real leader behind the scenes was vomit fans. "
"Yes. This man is so resourceful that everyone dares to take advantage of him. " Qin mubai laughed and said, "do you think he is so generous and gives 40000 elite cavalry as dowry? To put it bluntly, he is trying to bribe you and me. Just like a businessman, he made a "pre investment" in order to earn huge profits. Now Li Ji is trying to destroy Yi Nan. It's a matter of time before he can deal with Xue yantuo. As soon as Xue yantuo was exterminated, the new overlord tribe on the grassland would be stubborn. There is no doubt that the title of supremacy will fall on the Huihe tribe, which is the most powerful and has made great achievements in fighting the rebellion. And tumidu will be greatly trusted and praised by the imperial court, and become the new uncrowned king on the grassland. Who can assert that in a few years or ten years, he will not become the second Jieli or Yi man? "
"It's true Now on the grassland of Mobei. All the tribes, big and small, were destroyed or annexed by Xue yantuo, leaving the Huihe tribe with some strength to contend with. " Xue Rengui said, "once Xue yantuo is destroyed, the Huihe family is the only one. But I'm surprised. With the lessons of Xue yantuo's tribe and the barbarians, do the Huihe people dare to be ambitious?"
"Ha ha!" Qin mubai smiles. He said, "ambition and desire are beyond one's control. If you want to learn from the past, didn't Yi Nan have it before? For several years, did Qianwei Gong just destroy the Turkic Khanate and capture Jieli Khan alive
"Also..." Xue Rengui sighed, nodded and said, "just as you said. This vomit fan degree is really resourceful and ambitious. He sent out two cheap nieces and 40000 cavalry to form an ally in Datang, hoping to have a big return in the future. Maybe one day he'll follow the example of Yi man to say that he's sweating. You and I will be quite passive. "
"It's just passive, it's just self." Qin mubai said with a deep smile, "I'm afraid that he will openly claim that you and I are his allies like Li you, the king of Qi who revolted a few years ago. We not only married his niece, but also took over his army, which is evidence! Or, when the Tubo people know about these things, they will stir up rumors and make trouble, and we can't get rid of them by jumping into the Yellow River. It's OK for you and me to be wronged and die. I'm afraid that it will affect the military and national plans, and that's not good! "
Xue Rengui's face changed. "Then I'll write a letter of divorce right away, and I'll give it up! ——How can a man be without a wife? Although Xiyan is a good woman, he treats me with deep affection, but he takes the overall situation as the priority, and I am not greedy! "
"Don't be nervous, Rengui. There's no need to divorce you." Qin mubai patted Xue Rengui on the shoulder with a smile and said. "Picturesque scenery, beautiful women, which man doesn't like it? Who says you can't have it both ways? I have a way
"Oh, mubai has a plan?" Xue Rengui said with a smile, "no wonder I see that you have always had a good mind. When you face Xuelian's capricious and domineering, you can be at ease and calm down!"
"In fact, it's not a good idea. At most, it's just a bad idea." Qin mubai put up a finger. Mysterious smile way, "a word - drag!"
"Drag?"
"Yes, hold her down first." Qin mubai said with a smile, "neither unfamiliar nor warm; neither promise nor refuse. No, but I don't think she will be angry and go, absolutely impossible! For one thing, a woman with strong character and perseverance like her, the more she can't get it, the more she will dig out her mind to get it. On the contrary, if you let her get it easily, she may lose interest very soon. Secondly, among the Huihe generals who are with her, there are few of them who are devoted to vomit. I will always give her the idea of vomit - so anyway, Xuelian will always follow me, even if I punch and kick, I won't get her back! "
"Ha ha!" Xue Rengui was dumbfounded and laughed, shaking his head and sighing, "no wonder Su dingfang said that you are" amazing. ". It turns out that you've already thought about it inside and outside, and you've seen through other people's girls! "
Qin mubai's eyes narrowed with a smile and said in a soft voice: "in fact, which man would think that there are many women around him? Ashina blood lotus, is really a exotic Qiba, another kind of enchantment, another kind of charm. As long as it's the man who met her. If you don't like it, it's a lie! However, such a wild woman with complex background as her is not something that ordinary men can afford. This Chiba has a poisonous prickle on her body. "
Xue Rengui laughed, "at the end of the day, there are more difficult girls than Princess Gaoyang?"
Qin mubai laughs. He immediately lowered his voice for fear that Chen Yan would hear him, and said, "in fact, I can see that she is a young girl who is in love with me sincerely, and I have no evil intention to cheat or play with her. I don't want to be a heartbreaker. Therefore, we have to think of a perfect solution to make that vomit lost his wife and turned into a soldier! "
"It's up to you." Xue Rengui said with a smile, "this kind of thing, I just want to break my head. You're good at it"In fact, I have a preliminary idea in my mind, not only to solve the private problem of Xuelian, but also to solve the problem of long-term stability of Mobei grassland in the long run." Qin Mu Bai twisted his brow and said, "the Turkic Khanate was wiped out just a few years ago. This is another rebellion by the barbarians. It seems that the policy of "Jingbian Huairou", which was made by the Hu people, would not work. It's not only that Datang spends a lot of money and food to support the garrison every year, but also that they can still revive in a few years. "
"It's about the national policy of the Tang Dynasty..." Xue Rengui was stunned.
"Yes! Such a big event. It's not up to me as a frontier commander to decide. So, I have to hold on to Xuelian first, at least until I take her back to Chang'an and see the emperor. " Qin mubai stopped for a moment, took a sip of hot soup and said with a smile, "it's not only the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. I'm laotaishan! If I want to have a concubine, I'll always say hello to the old man and give him some face? "
"Ha ha, that's it!"
