After the immortal disappeared

Of course, he doesn't need to follow the trend, he himself is top-notch.

There were guards on guard around the Imperial Division's camp, but the sandbank today was extremely crowded, and there were people outside the guard circle. He Lingchuan squeezed into the crowd, which was the best cover.

Then, Li Qingge came.

Today she wore a fiery red cloak, with a white velvet collar, fiery red lips, and a bright red coral hairpin on her dark cloud bun.

Such a graceful beauty walked out of a domineering pace.

Nian Zanli was also dressed in a purple and blue brocade robe, walking in stride.

The two of them were ten feet apart, and they both responded with indifference.

The guard came into the tent to convey the message.

Not long after, a person walked out of the tent, wearing a white jade crown, frosty red clothes, long eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and a tall and straight posture.

As soon as he appeared, the autumn wind blowing through the woods seemed to slow down.

There was a commotion among the surrounding crowd:

"National Master! Shuangye National Master is out!"

Bejia was rich and powerful all over the world, but he only had four national advisors. In the eyes of most people, the national preceptor in charge of Bejia Yuanli is reclusive, mysterious and noble, and they are only lucky enough to see him at the Caohai event.

He Lingchuan also kept a close eye on this person.

Is this the famous Shuangye Imperial Master, Xi Yunhe’s backer?

His age is second only to Imperial Master Qingyang, but Imperial Master Shuangye looks younger, only around 25 or 26 years old, handsome and elegant, like a jade tree.

He Lingchuan still remembered that he was a monster, but he looked like a human. The lifespan of a great demon is generally longer than that of a practitioner, so it is not surprising that Shuangye Guoshi looks young.

What kind of monster is "Du Yu", and why does it look like a human being?

Imperial Master Shuangye spoke, his voice like a jade cong striking each other: "General Nian, are you okay?"

Hearing what he said, Nian Zanli had not seen Shuangye Guoshi for a long time.

He Lingchuan's eyes flashed slightly when he heard this. It seems that in the past two months, Nian Zanli has been rejected by others, and Shuangye Grandmaster is not even willing to meet him.

Nian Zan stood still, cupped his fists and saluted: "Well done, Imperial Master!"

Li Qingge also bowed to Imperial Master Shuangye Yingying: "Li Qingge of Songyang Mansion has met Imperial Master Shuangye."

"Are you the Master of Songyang Palace?" Imperial Master Shuangye hummed and looked at the two of them, as if he had some realization.

Li Qingge lightly opened his red lips: "I take the liberty of asking for a meeting. I would like to ask the Imperial Master to be a witness."

Nian Zanli added: "Also distinguish the authenticity."

Imperial Master Shuangye smiled: "Witness? I think you want me to be a guarantee." He turned around and pointed at the tent, "Come in."

With his attitude, he clearly knew what the two of them were talking about. When I saw the New Year's Praise, I felt relieved.

When Imperial Master Shuangye turned around, he glanced at the crowd.

His eyes were as bright as frost and daggers, so bright that people dared not look at them, but his expression seemed to be smiling but not smiling. He Lingchuan always felt that he was staring at him all of a sudden.

The two made eye contact briefly, then looked away.

Imperial Master Shuangye turned around and strode into the tent. He Lingchuan smiled bitterly——

The eyes of Imperial Master Shuangye looking at him were meaningful, as if there were two points of approval?

This is really...sigh.

Nian Zanli and Li Qingge also followed in.

He Lingchuan used his ears to try and hear a few words in the din.

However, there was silence in the tent.

Apparently a barrier was opened inside.

He Lingchuan turned to look at Lao Dan, whose wandering eyes betrayed the anxiety in his heart.

"Nineteen will make it." He Lingchuan patted Lao Dan on the shoulder, "Don't worry."

Just over a quarter of an hour later, the curtain was lifted, and Li Qingge and Nian Zanli walked out one after another.

The haze in Nian Zanli's brows disappeared, he looked up to the sky and let out a long breath, and his steps to leave were much lighter than before.

Li Qingge's beautiful eyes were shining, the corners of her lips were raised, and she looked charming.

He Lingchuan understood immediately. The transaction was successful and she finally got what she wanted.

Li Qingge glanced at the crowd and saw him at a glance. However, it was difficult to communicate with others in public, so she smiled intentionally or unintentionally, turned around and walked towards her carriage.

The little squirrel on He Lingchuan's shoulder scampered away.

He stood there for a moment, and when he saw that Master Shuangye didn't come out, he turned around and left.

Li Qingge's carriage stopped halfway up the mountain, not close to Songyang Mansion's service point.

She can't get a title in Lingxu City. She is mainly a businessman and secondly the Taoist leader, so she won't sit in the front row of the sandbank.

Although there are people on both sides, at least they are not as eye-catching as on the sandbank, and they are blocked by woodland.

When He Lingchuan passed by, she already had a visitor, and they were having a pleasant discussion.

He didn't stop and walked away from the edge, queuing up to buy multigrain pancakes from a small vendor ten feet away.

The sea of ​​​​grass is usually vast and vast, with more birds than people, but today the valley is full of people from Lingxu City, and the business opportunities are endless. Why are small businessmen reluctant to come?

There are four or five pancake stalls here, but this one is the only one with a long queue. Needless to say, it is definitely delicious.

He Lingchuan spent a long time waiting for the opportunity to add meat or eggs. At this time, of course he wanted them all boldly.

After tasting it, I realized that the soul of this pancake is in the sauce, which is divided into sweet and sour and hot and sour. The sour juice is made from fermented wild fruits on the tree. It has a unique flavor, and is mixed with some weird sauces. The seasonings have become the family’s unique secret recipe.

But the sauce is light green. He Lingchuan looked at it for a while and felt that it would not hurt his stomach if he ate it.

He had just taken two bites when Squirrel Xiao Qiao jumped onto his shoulder from an unknown tree, pointed at the vendor next to him and said, "This!"

This store sells dried fruits.

He Lingchuan bought it half a pound of strange-flavored broad beans. The squirrel squeaked and said, "Songyang Prefecture wants me to tell you that she has it ready. Take the bamboo tube back and verify that it is correct."

He Lingchuan exhaled, not sure whether he was relieved or uncomfortable.

The token was exchanged into a bamboo tube. This operation seemed smooth and simple on the surface, but it was completed in only a quarter of an hour in Shuangye Guoshi's tent.

In fact, how much mediation work did He Lingchuan do behind the scenes?

If it was easy, why couldn't Li Qingge do it himself?

Nian Zanli was worried and suspicious. How could he hand over the bamboo tube without the strong guarantee of Master Shuangye?

"Did you also give the token to the other party?"

"Well, it was exchanged. The Frostleaf Grandmaster guaranteed it, and the other party didn't bargain much. And the Frostleaf Grandmaster also told the other party that only he can use the token."

He Lingchuan understood that the troop deployment token given to him by Imperial Master Shuangye could only be used by Nian Zanli himself. The Baling Kingdom only recognized him, and only Nian Zanli himself could mobilize tens of thousands of horses.

"It should be so." Borrowing troops is not borrowing salt, so how can we do it casually?

"Grandmaster Shuangye also asked the Lord to send a message to you, telling you to get the matter done as soon as possible."

He Lingchuan nodded.

Imperial Master Shuangye kept his promise and offered tens of thousands of foreign soldiers in exchange for Li Qingge's fatal treasure. This is a big deal, which shows how eager he is to defeat the Qingyang Imperial Master.

Now, it's He Lingchuan's turn to fulfill his promise.

Imperial Master Shuangye's patience is limited and he will not let him delay endlessly.

He Lingchuan said to Squirrel: "Go and send a message to Master Songyang. Now that you have the bamboo tube, start the next step as soon as possible."

The squirrel jumped onto a high branch and ran away in a flash.

This wood is where it comes and goes.

Li Qingge originally paid tribute to the previous year in a way that would prevent him from squeezing the bug to death.

Now that the bamboo tube is in hand, her life is not in danger, so she can go ahead and do it.

Nian Zanli has obtained the token from Shuangye Imperial Master, and He Lingchuan wants to ensure that he cannot borrow any troops, otherwise disaster will befall the Yuan Kingdom.

One of their major advantages at present is that Nian Zanli's troops are all staying in Xunzhou, with only a few soldiers around them.

This is Lingxu City. Strictly speaking, Nian Zanli and He Lingchuan are strangers in a foreign land without any home field advantage.

He even didn't do as well as He Lingchuan here.

This is one of the situations that He Lingchuan can take advantage of.

…

Nian Zanli strode back to his tent, his face glowing red.

When several staff members saw his expression, they all raised their hands: "Congratulations, General, for successfully borrowing troops!"

Nian Zanli laughed loudly: "Congratulations are early. When I get He Chunhua's head, it won't be too late to celebrate!"

Only one staff member looked worried and couldn't laugh.

When the others saw it, they said, "Lu Huansheng, what are you dissatisfied with?"

Nian Zanli's smile faded and he looked over.

Lu Huansheng immediately said: "Of course it is a great thing for the general to borrow elite soldiers. The Yuan Kingdom is a cowardly king and is unworthy of his position! It's just, it's just..."

He looked at the crowd and lowered his voice: "The conditions offered by Imperial Master Shuangye are really harsh. He will be paid 200,000 taels of silver per year, 100,000 pieces of silk, and 300 jins of Xuanjing ore. The northwest pasture will also send out fine horses every year. Three hundred horses.”

Speaking of this, the smiles on everyone's faces silently faded. Imperial Master Shuangye vouched for the Songyang Mansion's work, and he had to collect all the benefits!

He is determined to receive the annual tribute and must borrow troops.

"I've done the math, and this annual payment is close to half of the normal annual income of the Yuan Kingdom!" Lu Huansheng said with his fingers, "Especially because there are too few pastures in the Yuan Kingdom, and there are too few good horses, so many of them have to be given away every year. . Qingyang Imperial Master’s price is not so high!”

The last sentence made Nian Zanli's face darken immediately.

He gave Imperial Master Qingyang gifts until he was about to go bankrupt, only to get her a chance to lobby the emperor, but she failed!

Imperial Master Shuangye also opened his mouth in the letter, and when Nian Zanli first read it, he felt his chest was suffocating.

But people can do it.

A staff member looked at his expression and immediately answered: "The war is urgent, so stay behind. How can borrowing troops be costless? What's more, these conditions are not only imposed by the Shuangye Imperial Master, but also by the Baling people."

They borrowed troops from the Baling people through the Shuangye Imperial Master, so they had to take care of both sides.

Lu Huansheng shook his head: "Shuangye Imperial Master and the Baling people want benefits. When Beijia finds out, will Beijia also come to take a share of the pie?"

This sheep from Yuan Kingdom is so thin. Can it stand up to three families taking turns to gather it?

Nian Zanli said coldly: "You mean, if I return the troops, we won't fight this battle?"

Lu Huansheng hesitated for a moment: "Zhao Pan has been transferred to the northwest by the faint emperor to fight against Da Sima. I still insist on my opinion. With our Xunzhou Army, there is no problem in taking Xiazhou before the spring of next year. Rest like this for half a year, and then move south after the autumn harvest. It’s not a bad idea to point directly at Yuandu!”
