45. In the heart of the high and low (8)

"Little Khan." The Turkic envoy saw him and immediately saluted.

Quezhu nodded and looked straight at He Rongjin, "How is the injury?"

He asked so naturally, as if he had completely forgotten that the wound on He Rongjin's body completely defeated him.

He Rongjin smiled and said, "TOEFL."

Quezhu rode on the horse and looked down at him and said, "The Turks are truly reconciled with the Western Qiang."

Chalong knew that He Rongjin had been in Quezhu's mansion for a while, and was afraid that he would be soft-hearted at this time, so he hurriedly took over the conversation and said, "Then show sincerity."

Quezhu said: "Mr. Qi Zhai of your country has decided to surrender to the Turks, so please forgive me."

Chalong laughed loudly, but there was no smile in his eyes, "Little Khan was joking. Lord Qi Zhai is the pillar of my Xiqiang, and he is loyal to me, Wang Zhong. How could he be deceived by your sweet words and do such unfaithful and unrighteous things!"

Quezhu said calmly: "Why don't Lord Chalong talk about the conditions of your country?"

Chalong smiled slightly and asked for six Turkic cities, but did not mention the three mentioned by Que Shu.

He Rongjin was secretly shocked. This is what is called asking for a lot of money to pay it back locally.

Qi Zhai said: "It would be better to directly ask for the Turkic Khan position."

Chalong said: "In the king's mind, Lord Qi Zhai is more important than Turkic Khan."

Quezhu turned her head and looked at He Rongjin without any anger. "Can I hand over these six cities be replaced by my General Manager Sheng Wen?"

He Rongjin was slightly surprised. Judging from his tone and expression at this moment, he was afraid that he would treat himself as a meticulous work lurking beside him, just like Qi Zhai. But it is no wonder that his affairs with Que Shu were not worthy of being told by outsiders. Judging from time and events, it was too coincidental that he appeared around Que Zhu at that time. In addition to the later events, let alone Que Zhu not believe it, he couldn't help but doubt it.

Chalong said, "Oh? Did your mansion lose a general manager? This is not difficult. I, the Western Qiang land, have many talents. Since the little Khan likes Lord Qi Zhai, then I will find a general manager like Lord Qi Zhai for you who is smart and scheming?"

Quezhu said: "My supervisor is He Rongjin."

Chalong said: "This is General He Gu."

The two of them were talking about their own words, but they fought against each other, which made Qi Zhai very worried, because they were afraid that the war would be about to break out. Just as they were about to make a few words, Quezhu said: "So that's it. It's really a talent for the general of the Western Qiang to be the general manager of Sheng Wen in our mansion."

Although he knew that the defense was useless at this time, He Rongjin still said, "It was indeed an unintentional act back then."

Quezhu looked at him, and Gu Jing Wubo's eyes flashed with a little light, but he carried the light on his back and took it very quickly. He Rongjin couldn't see whether the light in his eyes was joy or anger.

"Is it a pity to confess after drinking?"

He Rongjin seemed to have never expected that he would mention this misunderstanding for many years in front of others, and was stunned.

Chalong's eyes moved away tactfully, but his ears were very high. Even though Que Shu and He Rongjin did not clearly express their relationship, he was a close confidant around Que Shu after all. Even if he didn't know the entanglement between the two, he was still inseparable from the tenth. Now that he heard that He Rongjin and Que Zhu were still in connection with each other, he naturally had to cheer up the king.

Quezhu looked at He Rongjin steadily, his eyes lost all the light, leaving only a gloom.

He Rongjin slowly spoke, "It's a misunderstanding."

Quezhu's reaction was unexpectedly calm, and he just nodded slightly and said, "The person you called Que Shu, right?"

He Rongjin, who was calm from beginning to end, blushed.

Quezhu suddenly smiled, but no smile, "For the first time I found out that you are so honest."

He Rongjin sighed and said, "I have never lie to you."

Quezhu said: "Concealment is not more kind than deceiving."

Speaking of this, there is naturally nothing to argue. He Rongjin could only say, "You and I have always been two people." In the past, Quezhu was an ambitious little khan, and he was a general of the Western Qiang who was determined to live in seclusion. Now, Quezhu is still an ambitious little khan, but he is a general who wants to fight for the Western Qiang. From the beginning to the end, they never looked in the same direction.

Quezhu said: "Your country cannot agree to the request made by you." As he said that, he turned around and left. Qi Zhai followed him away, and let the Turkic peace talks envoy stay there with Chalong and He Rongjin.

The Turkic envoy looked at Chalong in a daze.

Chalong said, "It seems that I said it was right before." After he said that, he turned around and left regardless of the ugly face of the Turkic envoy.

He Rongjin followed him, wanting to speak but stopping.

But Chalong took the initiative to speak, "How does the general view this negotiation?"

He Rongjin said: "Qozhu has no intention of peace talks." Because he did not mean peace talks, he was not surprised by any of the conditions they proposed, because he had never intended to agree.

Chalong nodded and said, "The Turks are warlike, but this is very similar to the Western Qiang."

A sigh flashed in He Rongjin's eyes.

Chalong felt very keen, "General does not agree?"

"War is a burden to the people regardless of the outcome."

Chalong smiled and said, "As long as we attack first, attack the Turks, and use war to support the war, how can we implicate the people of the Western Qiang?"

He Rongjin was confident when he heard him, as if he had prepared himself, but he was inconvenient to say it again. He had been away from the Western Qiang for many years and was unfamiliar with Que Shu and the Western Qiang, especially the Western Qiang thoughts about the Turks. He was shocked by the three cities, and he had a vague understanding of Que Shu's ambition. If Que Shu said he wanted to take down the entire Turks now, he would be more shocked.

Chalong returned the account to explain the matter.

Que Shu smiled and said, "You know how the lion speaks loudly."

Chalong said calmly: "Since Quezhu has no intention of a peace talk, why should I give him the opportunity to delay time?"

Que Shu said: "How do you know that he has no intention of peace talks?"

Chalong said: "Since Quezhu guessed that we already knew Qi Zhai's background, she brought him to meet us. It didn't seem like a calm person, but it was like adding fuel to the fire."

Que Shu pondered: "I'm afraid the situation of the Turks is not as we imagined. If Quezhu dares to provoke the Western Qiang in this way, he will definitely rely on it."

Chalong said: "It is a foregone conclusion that Mijia Yehu and him are incompatible. Over the years, they have fought openly and secretly for several times, and have been hurting their bones. It is incredible to say that they have done so many things over the years and have done so many tricks."

Que Shu said: "If it weren't for secret..."

He Rongjin suddenly said, "Where is Alipu?"

Chalong and Que Shu were both stunned.

Chalong said: "What is the relationship between Alipu and Quezhu?"

He Rongjin lowered his head and thought about it, and found that he remembered Quezhu's usual relationships clearly, which shows that he was paying attention to it. Thinking of Quezhu's disappointment when he looked at him, he suddenly felt guilty. His unintentional behavior... I am afraid that his unintentional behavior is not thorough enough. Although some of it is his habit of being a general of the Western Qiang, no matter what, he has peeped at the secrets of the Western Qiang after all. From this point of view, he is not much better than Qi Zhai. Their only difference is initiative and passive.

"As the rumors, they have always been disagreement. Hehe Kedun has always hoped that Aliputu can inherit the Khan position, but Joe Zhu has better connections in the Korean Central Committee, so there are occasional frictions between the two sides, but... they have never made any big fights."

Chalong said: "That's how it's clear."

He Rongjin said: "You mean, Quezhu and Alipu have not actually turned against each other?"

Chalong said: "Since Mijia conspired to rebel, he would never be inactive. But now Quezhu can still stay at the border with ease. Isn't this move a big violation of common sense? After thinking about it, there is only one explanation, that is, he is extremely at ease with the situation in Kyoto."

He Rongjin said: "Maybe he trusts the old Khan?"

Chalong shook his head and said, "Old Khan has a deep relationship with Mijia. I have sent people to sow discord and blame him several times, but I have not succeeded. With Quezhu's prudence, he will definitely not dare to bet on Lao Khan."

Que Shu said: "Do you suspect that Quezhu and Alipu are in the same group. The years of disagreement are just acting?"

Chalong said: "It is very likely. Otherwise, why would Alipu not impeach the Chrysan, who has become a little Khan, but he would impeach Mika?"

He Rongjin's brow suddenly frowned because he thought of something.

Chalong sighed, "It seems that General He Gu has also thought of it."

He Rongjin nodded and said, "It seems that Quezhu is ready to go to war with the Western Qiang." The so-called peace talks are just to confuse the public and delay time.
