At this time, Pei Ju was walking side by side with Datou Khan, surrounded by more than ten thousand elite Western Turks, and countless tribal herdsmen driving cattle and sheep to accompany them.
The Turks are originally a nomadic tribe, living in pursuit of water and grass. This trip to the east is also following the fertile water and grass in the East to feed the huge tribal population.
Passing through Gaochang City, it was natural to blackmail the lord of Gaochang City again. The Western Turks became king here, and even though the major city-states in the Western Regions were dissatisfied, no one dared to resist.
Although Pei Ju was chatting with Datou Khan, his mind could not help but turn to the intelligence he had heard recently.
He already knew about the Yingui sect's siege and defeat of the sword god Xu Yin in the ancient desert city, although he did not know what happened.
But Pei Ju knew very well that Zhu Yuyan dared to lead a group of people to assassinate Xu Yin, who was stronger than him, so she must have been fully prepared and laid out enough traps.
However, even so, the Yingui Sect returned with a huge defeat, even losing masters like Bian Fulai, who could be ranked among the top ten of the Demon Sect, and was so tired that the descendant Shan Meixian betrayed the sect.
From this we can see how severe the blow the Sword God Xu Yin had dealt to them. He had not seen that man in the past twenty years, and his strength had increased again, which immediately made Pei Ju feel fearful.
He felt that if he made any big moves in the future, this person would probably be his strongest enemy!
While I was thinking this, someone suddenly came to report.
"Khan! Your Majesty! There are two Han people in front of the army asking to see you. One of them said that he is Nan Gong of the Sui Dynasty. He represents the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty. He has something important to do and needs to see your Majesty!"
Datou Khan looked at Pei Ju and asked in Turkic: "I heard from your envoy that the Duke of Zhennan never listened to the emperor of the Sui Dynasty. Although he had surrendered to the Sui Dynasty, he was actually independent of the Sui Dynasty.
outside.
What is the purpose of this person's visit? Does he really represent the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty?"
Pei Ju was slightly startled. He had indeed deliberately revealed his true identity to Song Que in order to lure Song Que to come and assassinate him.
Of course, he had prepared enough means to keep him. If he could take Song Que's head, he would surely be like a fish in water in the officialdom of the Sui Dynasty in the future, and it would be easier to obtain a high position. Then he would be able to disrupt the world and subvert the Sui Dynasty.
between palms.
He had imagined many ways that Song Que would come to assassinate him, but the only thing he didn't expect was that he would come to look for him so openly, which in turn made all the means that Pei Ju had secretly arranged become ineffective.
Conspiracy is already weak and vulnerable in the face of conspiracy.
Pei Ju said with a smile: "Although I don't know what Duke Zhennan's intention is, since he has something to do with me, I certainly can't be arrogant and ignore him. This is inconsistent with etiquette, and I will definitely be criticized and impeached."
Datou Khan said: "If this is the case, then invite this person!"
When the messenger was about to leave, Pei Ju asked again: "Who is following Duke Zhennan?"
The man said cautiously: "Looking at the clothes he wears as a servant, he should be the servant next to Duke Zhennan."
No one in the camp felt anything strange. It would be strange for a noble person like Song Que not to have servants around him.
Pei Ju smiled and let the other party leave, but he was secretly wary in his heart. He knew that Song Que was by no means a pampered person, not to mention that this person had always been a loner, so how could he bring a servant with him?
With his intuition, he immediately felt that maybe this honest request for permission was the idea of the so-called servant. So who was this servant?
Song Que and Xu Yin were allowed to enter. They dismounted and their horses were pulled aside by Turkic soldiers. Some even came to collect their weapons.
Song Que glared angrily and said: "Song always carries a sword with him. Even if the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty is here, if he wants to seize the sword, he can only fight with his life!
Pei Ju's son did not come to see Yu, but asked Song to put down his weapons and go to meet him. This is a great loss of my courtesy of the Sui Dynasty. You go back and tell him that when you return to the court the next day, you will have someone to take a copy of it!"
The two Turkic soldiers looked at each other. Although they could not understand the meaning of Song Que's words, they knew that this man had a noble status and did not dare to offend him.
Anyway, the Khan did not necessarily ask them to put down their weapons, and what they saw was the Han envoy, so it was better to turn a blind eye and avoid causing trouble for themselves.
Inside the Turkic camp, Song Que was carrying a sword and Xu Yin was carrying a sword. One was serious and the other was leisurely, but they both walked toward the Khan's tent as if they were strolling in a court under the gaze of thousands of troops.
As the early wind blows, the Turkic warriors on horseback, with flags and flags flying, galloping past with bows and knives in hand, occasionally glancing at them with both curiosity and disdain, they are strong, agile, arrogant and wanton.
Since the founding of the Sui Dynasty, there has been no substantial victory over the northern Turks. Even though they split the eastern and western Turks by means of estrangement and surrendered without fighting, they have never made the tribes in the Mobei and Western Regions surrender.
Seeing this, Xu Yin said to Song Que in Mandarin: "The barbarians are afraid of power and have no morals. Unless Weihuo's battle array is victorious, his tribe is slaughtered, his country is destroyed, and his chieftains are captured, his spirit will never be destroyed."
, being arrogant and barbaric, plundering the people of the Middle Kingdom, will bring disaster for a long time!"
Song Que deeply believed this, but unfortunately his power was in Lingnan, so he would never be trusted by the Sui Dynasty, and naturally he would not be able to achieve Wei Huo's unparalleled achievements.
Not long after, the two came to the door of the Western Turkic Khan's tent with a wolf's head hanging on it, and waited for the announcement outside the tent like a man.
But the two of them were calm and not at all helpless.
Xu Yin suddenly said: "Five moves."
Song Que nodded seriously and stroked the blade.
From the breathing sounds of the people around them, the two men immediately judged that there were many masters lurking near the sweat tent. Even though they were not very wary of the two of them, once they took action, these people would definitely react very quickly.
Therefore, the original ten-move fighting time can only accommodate five moves at most. If you can't defeat Pei Ju within five moves, you have to be prepared to run away!
I saw that Pei Ju stopped putting on airs and took the initiative to welcome him out.
"The lower official happened to have important matters to discuss with Datou Khan, so he did not personally greet Zhennan Gong. I also asked Zhennan Gong to put the overall situation first and don't be offended."
He chuckled and cupped his hands towards Song Que, who had a gloomy look on his face. He nodded and bowed as if to apologize, but in fact he glanced directly at Xu Yin.
Xu Yin was wearing a bamboo hat that was common in China and was lowering his head slightly, so Pei Ju didn't recognize him for a moment.
However, Pei Ju glanced at the ordinary iron sword worn on Xu Yin's waist and frowned slightly.
At this moment, there was a sonorous sound, and the sword on Song Que's waist was already unsheathed, and he slashed at Pei Ju's head without saying a word.
Even though Pei Ju was cunning and wise, he never thought that Song Que would directly draw his sword and kill him in front of thousands of troops in front of the Turkic Khan's tent without saying a word!
In today's world, who dares to underestimate the power of the Heavenly Sword?!
What's more, the first strike that Song Que made with his sword was the deadly force of the Eight Heavenly Sword Techniques!
The Eight Swords of Heavenly Sword, also known as the Eight Swords of Heavenly Wen, is named after Tianwen in the Songs of Chu and was created by Qu Yuan.
This sword is called Zengcheng Jiuzhong. How many miles is it high?
Pei Ju no longer cared about hiding his strength, and used the Immortal Seal to turn the death energy into vitality. He barely missed Song Que's sword and moved it sideways. At the same time, he launched a mental offensive. Countless illusions hit Song Que's sea of consciousness, causing
