The Golden Age Chapter 1116: Conditions

Keep seeing Qin Xiao not speaking, he smiled and said: "Your Tang Kingdom is becoming weaker day by day. If Tiehan expands its power on the grasslands at its peak, your Emperor of Tang will never sit back and watch. There are 100,000 troops in the four northern towns. Tiehan has long been involved in grassland warfare and has suppressed Tiehan’s expansion. In the past ten years, Tiehan has annexed many tribes large and small in Monan. Tang Jun just stayed at the border and watched. This is not because they don’t want to control, but because they are afraid of causing fire and burning. The war with the Tusun people, because you Datang has no absolute strength to fight the Tusun people head-on, so those tribes that were attacked by Tiehan have been extremely disappointed in your Tang country. For so many years, there have been few tribes against you. Tang Guo sent a mission to worship, you should know better than me."

Qin Xiao feels sad, knowing that Ke Dun's remarks are true.

During the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, when the nations came to the dynasty, wherever the military flag came, there was nothing unstoppable.

But today's Datang has long lost its former glory, and the grand scenes of the nations that came to the dynasty are no longer visible, and even the surrounding countries are eyeing the Datang. If the Datang is still in its heyday, soon The former Bohai State mission did not dare to show off its power in Datang.

"Hundred-legged insects, die but not stiff." Qin Xiao said: "Even if Datang is no longer strong and prosperous, it is still the most powerful empire today. Although Tie Han is strong, he still has no courage to face Datang. Duel. But you Xile tribes are the fat in Tiehan’s eyes, and you will certainly annex Modong at all costs. The best situation now is that the Modong tribes unite, clenched into a fist, and join me in the north of the Tang Dynasty. The four towns echo each other, and both sides contain Tie Han. If such a strategy can be realized, it will be good for both of us."

Kidun said: "You are not wrong in what you said, but it is not as easy as you think to turn such a strategy into reality. Not to mention that the Xile tribes are full of doubts about your Tang State, it is Xile The ministries also don’t trust each other. If they can’t even trust each other, the so-called alliance is just a piece of white paper."

"But for all of us, this is the only way that can guarantee everyone's interests." Qin Xiaodao: "Kedun wants to keep the He Gu Department, this is the only way."

Ke Dun was silent for a long time, and finally said: "What are you going to do?"

"It's not how I want to do it, but what Ketun should do next." Qin Xiao said: "If Ketun can persuade the elders of Hegubu to abandon the previous suspicions and reach an agreement with Mahabe to advance and retreat together, Then I will try my best to facilitate the negotiation between your ministry and Mahabe. In fact, the elders of your ministry are not fools. The civil war of the various ministries of Xile will only harm everyone's interests. Now the wolf cavalry destroys the sweat tents, and your ministry has been killed and wounded countless. They had not realized the seriousness of the problem before, and now they should know how to choose."

Kedun’s tone was not as enchanting as he did before, and he slowly said: "If you want to form an alliance, you should have the power to mediate. Who are you?"

"You call me Xiang Gong." Qin Xiao said, "It doesn't really matter who I am. As Ke Dun said, I represent the interests of Datang. At least for now, the interests of Datang and your Xi Le The unanimity of all ministries is to curb the continued expansion of Tusun people. We have a common enemy, which determines that we are still friends at least for now."

Ke Dun said with a chuckle: "Listening to your voice, at a young age, I didn't expect to have such insights. It seems that Tang Guo is full of talents. It seems that it is not fake. You Tang Guo is weak, not because of lack of talents, but you The emperor does not use people." After a pause, he said: "I can try to negotiate with Zhen Yu, but before that, you have to promise me a few conditions."

"If Kotun's conditions are reasonable, I will try my best."

"First, the true feather cavalry must immediately withdraw from the iron palace." Ke Dun said: "They retreated fifty miles to the south, guaranteeing that before the negotiation, no one soldier can step further north. If they want to make peace He Gu forms an alliance, this sincerity must be shown."

"What else?"

"For the two parties to negotiate, Mahabe must let their leader be present in person." Ke Dun said slowly: "Mahabe has returned to heaven. It is still undecided who will inherit the position of Mahabe. They must choose Da Khan, and then Da Khan came to discuss the alliance. I don’t want Mayabe to tear up the previous agreement at will because of power struggles."

Qin Xiao knows what she means. It is to let the principal of Mahabe come to negotiate. If people who can’t be the principal sign the negotiation, the covenant will naturally be torn up. He nodded and said: "This request is not enough. Points. What are the conditions?"

"The specific conditions of the alliance, we will put forward to Maha at the negotiating table." Ke Dun said: "The last condition I am willing to negotiate is related to you."

"Me?"

"Since you know how to treat my strange disease, you must be by my side before negotiations." Ke Dun said: "I will not neglect you, but you have to promise to help me treat the disease."

Qin Xiao was a little embarrassed, he just claimed that he could help Katun heal, but he himself has been tortured by the poison of Qianye Manluo for more than ten years, and to this day, he has not completely eliminated the cold poison. The way, even if his own problem is not solved, how can I help Katun get rid of it completely?

However, he understands better in his heart that Ke Tun’s attitude towards him has changed. In fact, it is related to this. But Tun now puts the hope of healing on himself. If he can't solve the cold poison, this beautiful woman I'm afraid that I will turn my face again.

"Kedun, your cold disease has been going on for many years, I am not sure whether it has changed." Qin Xiao could only bite the bullet and said: "But I do have a way to prevent you from suffering from the cold in the future. "After a pause, he asked: "Can the prescription left by Dao Aunt completely suppress your strange disease?"

Kidun said: "Although it occurs three times a month, once every ten days, I am not sure when it will happen suddenly, so I will always prepare decoctions by my side, and the medicinal materials consumed every year are not counted. Count. After taking it, the pain can be relieved, but the whole body is still cold. The longest time it takes two hours to recover." Having said this, it is expected that she has lingering fears about cold toxin: "Now the time of onset is getting more and more. The shorter, I don’t know how it will continue."

"Since I promised you, I would naturally do my best." Qin Xiao said: "But if the true feather cavalry is withdrawn, but Dun will keep me here, I am afraid they will not agree."

Kedun chuckled lightly: "I understand your concerns. Do you think that after they withdrew, I took you hostage again, and when the reinforcements from Luozhishan return, the situation will be reversed immediately, and I promise you will negotiate Regret it?"

"I do have this worry." Qin Xiao said lightly.

Ke Dun faintly said: "If you can't believe me, how can this negotiation be successful? You are trying to promote the alliance of the Xile tribes, and naturally you have to take risks. Maybe I will really regret it after the situation is reversed. Do you dare to give it a try?"

Qin Xiao pondered slightly, and finally asked, "Are there any other conditions?"

Ke Dun immediately understood what Qin Xiao meant, and smiled: "As long as I agree to these three conditions, I will seek to negotiate with Zhenyu. Xiang Gong, you are really courageous, and I find that I like you more and more. ."

"I will try my best to fulfill the three conditions you mentioned." Qin Xiao said, "Kedun, what else can you tell me about the two Taoist aunts? The more you know about them, the more you The sooner you can completely cure your cold disease."

"No more." Ke Dun said: "The young Taoist aunt is like a mute, she didn't say a word from beginning to end. The old Taoist Aunt Sanyue never laughed and spoke very little." After a pause, Thinking of something, he said: "By the way, that young Taoist aunt is indeed a little weird."

"How do you tell?"

"When the young Taoist first entered the palace, she had a peaceful attitude. Although she had never laughed, she was very polite to others." But she said slowly: "The look in her eyes makes people feel very comfortable, sometimes from A person’s eyes can tell a person’s temperament, and I can tell from her eyes that she is a very gentle woman."

Qin Xiao's mind naturally showed the voice of Daogu Luoyue.

Taogu Luoyue is like a fairy, beautiful as a flower. Although Qin Xiao has not been with her for a long time and has never seen her a few times, she still remembers her appearance. In his own memory, Dao Aunt Luo Yue is indeed a gentle and elegant person, which is the same as what Ke Dun said.

"But two days before she left the Iron Palace, her whole person seemed to have changed." Ke Dun said, "Although she still doesn't speak, her eyes become like a knife, and her kind eyes suddenly disappeared. When looking at people, she was very fierce, even with murderous aura, even the old Taoist aunt next to her seemed to become scared."

"What happened in the middle?"

"When they were in the Iron Palace, I sent people to treat them well from beginning to end." Ke Dun said: "The attendants are very respectful to them, and they are not rude. I don't understand why the young Taoist aunt suddenly had Change. But they left soon. Why did the sudden change happen? I didn’t ask much. Perhaps the two Taoist aunts had conflicts in private, but...the old Taoist aunt has always been very respectful to the young Taoist aunt, the young Taoist aunt. After the changes, the old Taoist aunt dared not look directly at the young Taoist aunt. She had always bowed her body and bowed her head. It was completely the attitude of a slave to the master."

Qin Xiao also has some differences. He went to Luoyue Temple twice and met Luoyue Taoist aunt.

Aunt Luoyue is indifferent, perhaps because of her cultivation, it’s hard to see the joys, anger, sorrow, and even what she thinks on her face, but as Ke Dun said, Dao Luoyue gives people A sense of simplicity and elegance, her eyes have always been peaceful, at least in Qin Xiao's memory, Luo Yue Daogu's eyes have never appeared murderous.

However, Qin Xiao is also sure that the origins of Taoist Luoyue and Master Sanjue are mysterious. They planted the poison of Qianye Manluo in Ke Dun's body, which proves that Taoist Luoyue must have a relationship with Mr. Da. It's very deeply involved, and if you want to track down clues about Mr. Da, Daogu Luoyue is a good breakthrough.

Just before he left Hangzhou, Luoyue and Daogu had disappeared, only the prescription was left for Chen Xi’s follow-up treatment. Since then, Qin Xiao has never known the whereabouts of the two, whether they are back now At Luo Yueguan, Qin Xiao was also unsure.
