Chapter 248: Romantic Person(1/3)

"Haha, you're finally here! Should I call you Nephew Mo Xian, or His Highness the 'King of Yan'?"

I haven't seen him for several years, and Temujin does look a little old.

Calculating his age, Temujin is already sixty-one years old this year, six years older than Zhao Kuo, an official of the Song Dynasty.

Although he was still strong and energetic, Guo Mo could tell at a glance that Temujin was poisoned.

After the "World Heroes Conference" arena ended, before everyone left the scene, Temujin sent someone to invite Guo Mo.

Moreover, the standards were extremely high, and a thousand "Xie Xue Army" were dispatched!

"Those who are timid are still considered to be Fanzhi and stay in the guards; those who stay in the guards are the emperor's forbidden soldiers."

When Mu Huali came to Guo Mo, Chen Xuanfeng stood directly in front of Guo Mo. Huang Rong, Li Mochou and Murong Yan, who had just finished their sworn vows on the ring, also jumped off the ring.

"Brother Mo, you can't go with them-"

Huang Rong objected loudly.

Although the other two women did not speak, the dissuasion could be seen in their concerned eyes.

"Haha, Rong'er, you two girls, you don't know something. I have known Genghis Khan since I was six years old, and I and Tuo Lei, the fourth son of the Great Khan, were sworn friends for eight worshippers."

"During more than ten years of living in the Mongolian desert, my family and I have received great care from the Great Khan. Even my sister-in-law is the Great Khan's Princess Huazheng. What do you think, General Muhuali?"

In order to reassure everyone, Guo Mo briefly described his relationship with Genghis Khan in front of so many people.

"Haha, what Nephew Mo Xian said is right. Let alone the good alliance between Mongolia and Song Dynasty, even if they are fighting each other, how can Nephew Mo Xian be equal to others?"

"Not to mention others, I, Mu Huali, have a fateful relationship with my nephew Mo Xian's master Zhebie. With the 'Qie Xue Jun' under my command, even if there are thousands of troops, I still want to hurt him in the slightest."

Seeing that the three girls still looked worried, Guo Mo simply went to Chen Xuanfeng directly.

"Elder brother, take the three of them back to the inn first. If nothing happens, wait for me in the inn. If something happens, you should leave Zhongdu City first. I will have my own way to escape."

Then without looking back, he followed Mu Huali and left.

Before leaving, he took the "Red Sky" sword from Huang Rong, which made her feel at ease.

Chen Xuanfeng took the three girls back to "Yunlai Inn" for the time being.

Shan Guo Mo got on the war horse prepared by Mu Huali, and, surrounded by a group of "cowardly Xue troops", rushed to the palace city.

"Seniors, the 'Heroes of the World Conference' is over. It seems that Father Khan is also busy now. If you don't mind, how about you go back to your house with Wo Kuotai to have some tea?"

The real owners had left, and "Western Poison" Ouyang Feng and others could not always stay in the ring. When they returned to the East Stand again, Wo Kuotai made a request.

It was past noon, and no matter how anxious I was, I was destined to be unable to leave Zhongdu City today.

What's more, the only ones who really want to leave may be Qiu Chuji, the "Changchunzi" of the Quanzhen Sect, and Zen Master Wuwu, the first master of the Shaolin Sutra Pavilion.

Seeing Wokuotai's generous invitation to Quanquan, several of them did not want to refute his face, so they all mounted their horses and headed towards Wokuotai's house.

Guo Mo has been to the imperial palace in Dali, and is even more familiar with the imperial palace in the Song Dynasty. Today he actually visited the Zhongdu Imperial Palace in Dajin.

Before the construction of the Zhongdu Palace, painters were sent to Bianliang to imitate the palaces of the Northern Song Dynasty. Therefore, the Zhongdu Palace is very similar to the Bianliang Palace, except that the scale is smaller.

The square in front of the palace is T-shaped in plan. Starting from Xuanyang Gate, the main entrance of the imperial city, it is divided into three avenues going north across the Duck Bridge.

The middle is the royal road, and the two sides are divided into left and right roads separated by ditches and bank willows.

The east and west sides of the avenue are long corridors, which start from the Wen and Wu second floors in the north of Yaqiao Bridge in the south and extend to the north.

There are three gates to the government office and the Ancestral Temple in the east and west. When you reach the front of Yingtian Gate, turn east and west and pass through the left and right gates of the palace city.

The palace city is at the back of the imperial city, located in the center of Zhongdu. The main entrance is Yingtianmen, which is a concave-shaped flat palace palace.

The inside of the gate is along the central axis, from south to north, passing through Da'an Gate to form two groups of palaces: Da'an Hall and Renzheng Hall.

The Zhongdu palace is still laid out according to the rules of the front dynasty and the back sleeping quarters. "Da'an Hall" is the main hall of the front dynasty, and "Renzheng Hall" is the main hall of the back sleeping quarters.

Genghis Khan actually received Guo Mo at the "Hall of Renzheng". It seems that in Temujin's eyes, Guo Mo was still his nephew first, and then the "King of Yan" of the Song Dynasty.

"The Great Khan was joking. In front of Genghis Khan, Guo Mo is just a junior. You can call the Great Khan whatever you want."

Guo Mo still couldn't figure out how Genghis Khan could have been poisoned, and it seemed that he had been poisoned for a year.

Of course it's not a potent poison, it just accumulates over time and slowly depletes people's energy and spirit.

"Haha, I'd better call you Mo Xian's nephew. Since you're in Zhongdu, why don't you come to the palace to meet me?"

"We haven't seen each other for several years. The desert child of the past has grown into the world-famous 'King Yan' of the Song Dynasty——"

Although he keeps calling him "Mo Xian Nephew", it still cannot change that one is Genghis Khan of Mongolia and the other is already His Highness the "King of Yan" of the Song Dynasty.

"Who dares to use the words 'powerful in the world' in front of the Great Khan? If you say that, you will disgrace this junior."

The two complimented each other. Guo Mo was not worried about Temujin harming him, but every time he faced this person, he always felt some natural pressure.

"Nephew Mo Xian, I am very curious as to why the officials of the Song Dynasty were so courageous to make a man with a foreign surname king and entrust him with the military power of the whole country?"

"Such a strange thing has never happened in ancient times. I think that I am a man with a big heart, but I can't be as open-minded as him."

"If the officials of the Song Dynasty were really talented and strategic people, why could they endure the humiliation of the Jin people for so many years? On the contrary, it was the rise of Mo Xian's nephew in recent years that made the Song Dynasty feel proud."

Many people would have questions about Genghis Khan, but Guo Mo did not intend to tell the truth and did not answer. He just picked up the kumiss on the case and drank it all.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! I haven’t drank this stuff for a few years. I always felt it tasted weird when I drank it. Now that I drink it again, I feel nostalgic about it.

Seeing that Guo Mo had no intention of answering his question, Genghis Khan understood and immediately changed the topic.

He sent the "Qie Xue Army" and invited Guo Mo here with such a high profile. It seems that he really just wanted to chat with him and reminisce about old times?

"In the past few months since I took over the Central Capital, I have had nothing to do, but I have read a lot of Han books. Unfortunately, I am a rough man. Even if I invited several Han gentlemen to explain it, I still have only a half-understanding of some things."

Only then did Guo Mo realize that Temujin in front of him was actually dressed like a Confucian scholar.

The robe of a Confucian scholar always looked a little awkward on Temujin's burly figure, but there were actually several books placed on his desk.

"I heard from people that the Southern Dynasties were very talented in literature. I wonder if Nephew Mo Xian knows any great scholars. You might as well give me a recommendation or two so that I can stay by your side and ask for your help sooner or later."

Darling, has this Temujin really changed his temper?

Guo Mo was a little curious.

In this time and space, with Guo Mo's intrusion, the wheel of history has already deviated from its track. Genghis Khan Temujin started the Western Expedition to Xixia a few years in advance.

However, due to lack of preparation and the obstruction of hundreds of thousands of troops from the Jin Kingdom, Xixia still retains two-thirds of its territory, and the Mongolian cavalry does not have an absolute advantage in Xixia.

On the contrary, the Jin State took the initiative to attack. Although it caused a lot of losses to the Mongolian cavalry, it also caused a fire. Now it even lost its own capital, and the Jin State court had to move south to Bianliang.

Genghis Khan Temujin did not die on the way to the Western Xia Dynasty as in history, but instead lived in the Jin Palace in Zhongdu.

Nowadays, Temujin actually invites great Confucian scholars to study Han culture.

Is this Genghis Khan, the prodigy who only knows how to bend a bow and shoot eagles?

In other words, if it is allowed to grow, one day it will be both civilized and military. What kind of terrifying existence will it be?

"Well... Guo Mo is just a man of martial arts background. Although he was the 'King of Yan' in the Song Dynasty, he mostly worked in the army, and he was not doing his job properly."

"No, when I heard that the Great Khan was holding the 'Heroes of the World Conference' in Zhongdu, I came all the way here to join in the fun."

He declined politely, not to mention that Guo Mo was not familiar with any great Confucianism. Even if he was familiar with it, he could not recommend it to Genghis Khan.

In that case, wouldn't it be blatantly siding with the enemy?

"Haha, it seems that you are the same as Ben Khan, but you still need to read more books when you have the opportunity. I am currently reading Sima Junshi's "Zizhi Tongjian" and I have benefited a lot."

Guo Mo still didn't answer. He always felt that Genghis Khan was weird after reading the book.

"I heard from people below that the one who finally won the 'Chengying' sword was actually Mo Xian's nephew's princess. This really fulfills the saying of you Han people, 'Women are not inferior to men.'"

"Ben Khan held a 'Conference of World Heroes'. Unexpectedly, the top three in the end were actually beautiful girls. Haha, this is a great news in the world."

Genghis Khan was also an open-minded man and did not feel disappointed because a woman won the championship.

The purpose of his holding the "Heroes of the World Conference" was to declare Mongolia's sovereignty over Zhongdu to the world and to recruit the talents he needed.

Now that the goal has been achieved, as for who takes away the "Chengying" sword, it is just a detail.

"Hua Zheng...is she okay?"

Genghis Khan drank the kumiss in front of him in one gulp and asked leisurely.

Hua Zheng, who used to be Temujin's favorite little princess, was even more favored than his sons, but now she is a world apart.

Moreover, did Hua Zheng "escape" from the Mongolian desert or was he hunted by two thousand Mongolian cavalry?

"Everything is fine, sister-in-law! Although she has lost her title as a Mongolian princess, as long as she wants, she can still be given the same title in the Song Dynasty."

Mentioning Huazheng, Guo Mo couldn't help but think of his mother Li Ping, who was chased by Mongolian cavalry and fought thousands of miles away.

"I can't blame Wokuotai for this matter..."

Genghis Khan wanted to explain to his third son, but he didn't know how to speak.

"Great Khan, there will always be a result regarding this matter. My eldest brother and I will personally seek justice from Ogedai."

Genghis Khan didn't know what to say, and Guo Mo didn't want to waste any time on this topic, so the two of them fell silent.

"Nephew Mo Xian, what do you think of the achievements this Khan has built over the years?"

It was Genghis Khan who broke the silence first and asked a question he had never mentioned to anyone.
