    Chapter 50: The wise man in the eyes of Beiliao people

    Fang Jie and Da Quan hid in the thick grass and peeked at the path not far away.  Because the red dress on Mu Xiaoyao was too eye-catching, she stayed hidden in the reeds not far behind.  From the time Mu Xiaoyao sensed that many people were approaching, Fang Jie and Da Quan found a suitable place to hide, and they had enough time.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????.

    "How could it be them?"

    On a small road not far away, a group of more than a dozen strong men gathered together and chatted in low voices.  A few people immediately separated and stood around on guard, while others found a clean place to sit down and rest.  Fang Jie actually knew the young man sitting in the middle.

    Robe, mandarin jacket, leather boots, scimitar on shoulder.

    His forehead was shaved, but a black braid hung on the back of his head.

    "People from Northern Liao?"

    The big dog was also slightly startled. He subconsciously looked at Fang Jie and asked, "Do you know them?"

    Fang Jie pointed to the young Bei Liao man in the middle and said, "I met this man once when I was in Fangu. He brought five hundred fine war horses into the city for sale. His name seemed to be Wan Yan Li Yao.  Although he pretended to be an ordinary herdsman, I could tell at a glance that this person's status in Bei Liao was definitely not low. You see, those Bei Liao people dispersed around him, and all their defenses were aimed at him.  This person arranged it.¡±

    Fang Jie pondered for a while and said: "You came back from the imperial capital so soon. Is it possible that you were rejected by the emperor of the Sui Dynasty again this time?"

    "I do not understand what you are saying."

    The big dog sniffed and said, "These people are probably not targeting us. There is no murderous intent in them. But since Xiao Yao said there are masters among them, we must not be careful."

    Fang Jie smiled and pointed to the horses of the Beiliao people: "It would be great if we could find a way to steal their three horses. Of course, it would be best if we could steal their carriage."

    "Huh?"

    After Fang Jie finished speaking, he couldn't help but let out a sigh, because he discovered that there were women among those Beiliao people!

    " One of the people from Bei Liao, who was wearing men's clothing and obviously smaller in stature, took off the hat on her head to reveal her long hair. Obviously, the big braid hanging down her head was fake.  Because she was a little far away, she couldn't see her appearance carefully.  But he must have had some makeup done, and something must have been applied on his face, so his skin tone looks a little darker.  Fang Jie knew that all the women in Bei Liao had skin as white as snow, and most of them had charming looks.

    ¡°What¡¯s all the fuss about.¡±

    Da Quan whispered: "If it is true as you guessed, this guy is a big shot in the Northern Liao region, and it is not an exaggeration to have a maid who sleeps with him. Nobles, isn't it important to have this guy around you every night?  Is there a beautiful woman to warm the bed?¡±

    When the two of them were whispering in the grass, the Beiliao people resting on one side of the path were also whispering.

    The woman whose face was obviously disguised sat down next to Wanyan Liyao, and her feminine posture was fully revealed.  The legs are bent inward, with the knees touching the knees, but the feet can be placed almost sideways. If it were a man in this position, he would probably be laughed to death.  Moreover, men¡¯s leg bones are thick and hard, making it difficult for them to sit like this and still feel natural.

    Because the paint on her face was too thick, her original appearance could not be seen.  It is precisely because of this that her feminine hairstyle paired with this dark face looks a bit funny no matter how you look at it.

    Judging by the shape of her face, she shouldn¡¯t be fat at all. Her figure now looks burly, bloated, and her shoulders are very wide. She must have put a lot of stuff under her clothes.

    She lowered her head and looked at her toes. She picked up the water bottle and took a sip. Then she looked at Wanyan Liyao beside her: "Brother, what does the emperor of the Sui Dynasty mean? Let's go back without knowing anything, father."  If asked, how should we explain it Although this time there is a big man meeting you, brother, more than before, but after all, he refuses to make it clear. How can we prepare for this? "

    ¡°This is the most disgusting thing about Central Plains people, it¡¯s not enjoyable enough!¡±

    A rough man with a beard standing not far away said with some dissatisfaction: "We sincerely surrender to the Sui Dynasty and are willing to be the subjects of the Sui Emperor. On the contrary, they are holding on to their airs and refusing to let go. Are they still afraid of us?"  Leaking the matter out? You must know that we Beiliao people are taking much greater risks than they are in Sui."

    "Kotai, you can't say that."

    Wanyan Zhongde, the prince of Northern Liao who had the pseudonym Wanyan Liyao, waved his hand and said: "It makes sense for the Sui people to think this way, regardless of whether they really intend to accept our offer from Northern Liao."Sincerely, Da Sui will not give any clear answer before he is ready.  Once this news leaks out, there will inevitably be a battle between Sui Dynasty and Meng Yuan Dynasty.  Whether it is Brother Meng or His Majesty the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty, the emperors of such a powerful empire regard their own face as very important.  If a war really breaks out, they will not allow their soldiers to be defeated.  "

    "The Han people in the Central Plains live too tiredly!"

    Kuotai kept waving his riding whip and whipping the weeds on the roadside: "What big thing can we do if we look forward and backward like this? If it were me, I would have sent a large army to join forces with our Northern Liao cavalry. The Mongolian Yuan Dynasty deployed on the northwest border of the Sui Dynasty  The men and horses are just less than 100,000 cavalry from the Mandu Banner. If we really fight, our 30,000 cold cavalry from Northern Liao will be able to kill him, and there is no need for the Sui Dynasty to send troops!"

    Wanyan Zhongde shook his head: "I have a guess now. If this is really the case, then we will persuade my father to prepare for the war after we return. However, Huai Qiugong, the Minister of Rites in the Sui Dynasty, happened to  They started pretending to be confused again, and I couldn¡¯t figure out what they were planning.¡±

    "What guess?"

    The woman from Northern Liao asked.

    "yes¡­¡­"

    Before Wanyan Zhongde could say anything, suddenly a Beiliao warrior who was on guard not far away shouted loudly: "Who is that person!"

    Wanyan Zhongde and the Beiliao woman quickly stood up and looked over there, only to see a wet boy walking over with a smile.

    "Brother Wanyan, are you okay?"

    The young man cupped his hands far away, smiled and called out.

    ¡­¡­

    ¡­¡­

    "Master Fang?"

    When Wanyan Zhongde recognized Fang Jie, he couldn't help but open his mouth slightly in surprise.  He really didn't expect that on this mountain road, he would meet the young man who left a deep impression on him when he was in Fan Gu.  Although he knew that the young man was just a deputy of the border army, he had a special respect for the young man since that meeting.

    When he was in the Fangu dungeon, the young man told himself that when he arrived in the imperial capital this time, he would be greeted by big and big officials.  Wanyan Chongde didn't believe it at that time, but after arriving in the imperial capital, it was indeed the Minister of Rites who met him in person.  He never believed that people had the power of prophecy, so he preferred to believe that this young man's mind was very, very easy to use.

    Such people are called wise men in Northern Liao.

    And wise men are highly respected in Northern Liao.

    "Don't call me sir, I'm just a soldier in the Sui border army."

    Fang Jie walked over with a smile, not paying any attention to the Bei Liao warriors who were holding down the hilts of the scimitars beside their waists.  His indifferent behavior actually aroused the idea of ????that Beiliao woman.  The moment Fang Jie appeared, she quickly put on her hat, and her big braid hung down behind her head. It looked like there was nothing wrong with it.

    Fang Jie's gaze just glanced over the woman's face without stopping for a moment, but the woman's big bright eyes still left a deep impression on him.  Her eyes are as big and bright as clear water, and she looks particularly attractive.  It's just that I don't know what was applied on her face, but the original color of her skin can't be seen at all.

    The woman¡¯s big beautiful eyes rested on Fang Jie, looking very curious.

    Fang Jie smiled as he walked and said, "Brother Wanyan, if you don't mind, you can call me brother."

    Wanyan Zhongde walked towards him quickly, smiling as he walked: "You are the most respectable wise man I have met since I entered the Sui Dynasty. It is my honor to be worthy of being your brother. I have often thought of you since Fan Gu said goodbye.  , I always regret that I don¡¯t have the chance to meet again. Maybe Changshengtian heard my prayer and specially arranged for you to come and meet me.¡±

    Fang Jie is no stranger to the way Beiliao people speak.

    He smiled and said: "Yes, Changshengtian gave me a dream, saying that you miss me, so I traveled thousands of miles to wait for you."

    "Ha ha!"

    Wanyan Zhongde couldn't help laughing, he took Fang Jie's hand without restraint and walked back. As he walked, he introduced to his subordinates: "This is a good brother I met in Fangu. It was he who told me about this time."  There will be officials from the Great Sui Dynasty to meet us."

    "I have met Fang Zhizhe."

    Kuotai and others did not dare to neglect, and quickly spread their arms across their chests and then bent down to salute.

    Fang Jie hurriedly waved his hands and said, "I am not a wise man. Brother Wanyan is the one who praises me. By the wayBrother Wanyan, didn't you go to the imperial capital? How could I meet you here?"

    Wanyan Zhongde waved his hand, and the Northern Liao warriors left immediately.  He took Fang Jie's hand, sat down on a stone by the roadside, and told him about his experience in the imperial capital.The queen sighed: "Brother Fang, you are not an outsider, you are my friend in Bei Liao, so I don't intend to hide it from you. It seems that this time we will return to Shiwanda Mountain in Bei Liao in disappointment.  I feel very sad to have failed my father¡¯s great trust.¡±

    Fang Jie frowned slightly, thought for a while and asked, "Why, the imperial court asked you to eat, drink and have fun in the imperial capital and then sent you out?"

    ¡°This time it¡¯s different.¡±

    Wanyan Zhongde once again told the story of meeting Huai Qiugong, the Minister of Rites of the Sui Dynasty. He hesitated for a moment and then asked: "Brother Fang, you are the wisest person I have ever met. I treat you as my own brother."  Everyone in Northern Liao sincerely regards you as a friend. Please help me think about it, brother Fang, what is the attitude of your Sui court this time?"

    Fang Jiexin said that these Beiliao people were really stupid and straightforward, and they would casually say such important things when they met.  However, he likes such a straightforward temperament. At least it won't be tiring to deal with such a person.

    He recalled Wanyan Zhongde's words, then shook his head and said: "This time must be different, otherwise the Minister of Rites would not meet you in person. Moreover, in fact, you should not have doubts from the beginning. You should think that this time with you  Seeking an audience with the Sui Emperor was very different in the past."

    "What's the difference?"

    Wanyan Zhongde asked subconsciously.

    Fang Jie smiled and said: "Think about it, in the past, the envoys sent by the Han Dynasty in Northern Liao to the Sui Dynasty to meet the emperor, every time they mentioned that Northern Liao wanted to attach themselves to the Sui Dynasty, what kind of answer did the officials of the Ministry of Rites give?"

    ¡°Avoid talking about it, and refuse directly if you press the question urgently.¡±

    "Anymore?"

    "I will also give you a lot of gifts."

    ¡°Have I given you any gifts this time?¡±

    Wanyan Zhongde shook his head and said: "No, not to mention that there are no gifts such as exquisite porcelain and tea. When I left the imperial capital, there were no officials from the Sui Dynasty to see me off. Before I left the imperial capital, no one wanted to see Master Huai Qiugong again.  Respond to me. It's like, suddenly we're disliked."

    Fang Jie stood up and patted Wanyan Zhongde on the shoulder and said seriously: "Go back and tell the Khan of Bei Liao and let him order you Bei Liao warriors to prepare. Maybe the war is really coming."

    Wanyan Zhongde said in surprise: "Are you really so sure?"

    "Brother Lord Messenger, you should believe the words of the wise."

    The Beiliao native who had been sitting quietly on the side, disguised as a man, complained about Wanyan Zhongde, or because he almost said the wrong thing, a blush appeared on his dark face.

    Wanyan Zhongde was startled, and then he quickly apologized to the other party.

    Fang Jie hesitated for a moment and said, "No need to thank meActually, I came to you to ask for a favor. I'm encountering some difficulties now, and I don't know if Brother Wanyan is willing to help."

    "Yes!"

    Before Wanyan Zhongde could speak, the woman took the lead and nodded vigorously.  She woke up just after saying these subconscious words, and her face seemed to turn redder.
