Master's letter reads: Dear disciple You'an, I have received a secret report that there has been civil strife in the country recently, and the whereabouts of Sultan Wu'er and his children are unknown. Please confirm this as soon as possible after reading it.
After the little eunuch read the letter, he was suddenly struck by thunder, with thousands of arrows piercing his heart, and almost fainted to the ground. Wang Xiaowu saw that his face suddenly became ugly, and he knew that something unexpected must have happened, so he hurriedly asked:
"Brother, why are you worried? Could it be that something big happened at the border?"
The young eunuch smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "This is my private matter. It seems that I cannot return to the court. I will write a letter and ask my brother to hand it over to the Queen Mother in person. My memorial will be handed over to the emperor at court."
I have to go to the border for a visit, and I’ll leave soon without further ado.”
Hu Sanjian said, interjecting: "Since my brother is going to the border, I will go with him so that I can have someone to look after me on the way."
Zhu Linzong and below, Hua Shixiong, Zhang Facun, Huang Ren, Xiao Tianlei, He Laowu, Chi Fatang, etc. all wanted to follow him.
The little eunuch smiled and said: "You are all people who have made meritorious deeds. You will be rewarded after entering the court. Why are you running around with me?"
Zhu Linzong fell to the ground, kowtowed and said, "I don't want any bullshit reward. It's enough to follow my master in this life!"
Hua Shixiong also knelt down and kowtowed and said, "I will follow you, Master Ding. Wherever you go, I will follow you there and never leave your side."
All the generals knelt down, and the little eunuchs helped them up one by one and said sincerely: "We are all brothers. From now on, we are not allowed to kowtow! In that case, then follow my arrangements. Mr. Hu, the prince and his father-in-law will bring people to Beijing to meet the saint. Hua
Shixiong must be returned, and the emperor will definitely put him to good use this time. We can't just wander around outside, the inner courtyard is empty and it's a taboo, so Lao Hua can be put to good use. At the same time, I'm going to Fanbang to find someone, and I can't do it alone.
I’ll spare you my brothers’ time to run away. Zhu Linzong, Zhang Facun, Huang Ren, He Laowu, Xiao Tianlei, and Chi Fatang will follow me.”
Hua Shixiong was originally a villain, but sometimes villains can accomplish great things. It depends on who is under his control and how you use them. Hua Shixiong is gone, his fortune will be shining brightly, his career will be prosperous, and he will rise to the top in one step. This is a story for later.
More to say.
The two families broke up. Hu San, Wang Xiaowang, Hua Shixiong and others held hands and said goodbye to the young eunuch in tears.
The young eunuch and Zhu Linzong, a total of seven people, turned a corner and went straight to the north instead of the capital. The seven horses drove away. Within a few days, the young eunuch and the others arrived at the border pass, and Marshal Meng personally welcomed them out of the pass.
The little eunuch dismounted and was about to kneel down. Meng Boxiong immediately helped him up and said with a smile:
"As a master and disciple, you should worship me. According to my official position, I want to worship you, so I just don't have to."
The young eunuch insisted on bowing, saying that once he is a master, he is always a father! Meng Boxiong refused, and the two had to avoid this set of red tape. The young eunuch wanted to ask the master for more details, but Meng Lang said:
"I just listened to the brief introduction of what happened by the soldiers who ran over there. If you want to know the details, you should go on your own. And there is no need to delay. If you go late, Wu'er Sultan may be in danger of his life."
"Is it a civil strife or an attack from outside?" the young eunuch asked urgently.
"It's civil unrest."
"At that time, I killed ten of their rebel generals in one go, but I didn't expect that the root of the problem would not be eliminated after all."
"How many people do you plan to bring this time? It's up to you to choose the people I have here." Meng Boxiong asked.
"The seven of us are enough. If we go too many, it will be useless. The target is too big."
Meng Boxiong thought for a while and said, "That's okay, but you also need to put on simple makeup." Meng Boxiong instructed.
"What's the makeup? She speaks Chinese, and people can hear her as soon as she opens her mouth." The little eunuch said with a smile.
"Weapons should always be hidden, right?"
The little eunuch nodded and said, "Okay, I will listen to Master."
Except for Zhang Facun and Huang Ren, the seven of them had short weapons, while the others had heavy weapons, especially Zhu Linzong's two yin-yang hammers, which weighed three to five hundred kilograms at least. The young eunuch's spear weighed one hundred and twenty kilograms.
The total amount of everyone's belongings was estimated to be about one thousand kilograms. Meng Lang ordered the carpenter to make a long wooden box, put all these into the wooden box, and hitched a donkey cart to pull it up. Everyone still rode horses or walked, pretending to be traders, and entered
To the country.
In the vast desert, the sky and the earth are connected. Looking up, there are boundless grasslands everywhere. The little eunuch didn't know if his Wu'er Sudan was still alive at this time, so he couldn't help but look up to the sky and shout: Wu'er Sudan, where are you?
The young eunuch decided to go to Fan Bang's capital to explore the news first. It would be an exaggeration to say that the Fan family's capital was a city. There were very few brick and earthen houses, most of which were tents set up in rows and arbitrarily according to local conditions. There were some fences around it, and a fence was tied to the entrance.
It is an extremely large dog with an extremely ferocious appearance. If anyone enters, they must first obtain permission from the dog.
The young eunuch and the others did not understand the language or the text, and they saw a large tent that looked like a hotel. The young eunuch ordered Zhu Linzong to go in and inquire about it, and find a place to stay first before discussing.
Just as Xiao Zhu was about to enter the hospital, a vicious dog pounced on him. Zhu Linzong flew up and kicked the dog, causing the dog to suffer pain and retreat into its nest with a strange growl.
The owner heard the dog barking and was lame on one leg. When he came out, he was about to have a seizure. The little eunuch suddenly saw that this man was kind-hearted, and suddenly remembered that this was not the shepherd he met last time when he entered the palace. Wait for that man
After opening his mouth, the little eunuch stepped forward and asked:
"Brother, you don't recognize me?"
The shepherd took a closer look and said in surprise: "Isn't this my benefactor who saved me from the wolves? Please sit down in the room, please sit down in the room!"
The courtyard of this house is very large. Apart from the two or three tents, there is open space within the fence. The young eunuch's donkey, cart and horses entered the courtyard without appearing nervous.
The shepherd's wife had a tile face, a big round face with two big eyes and a big mouth, but her nose was pitifully small. The couple was making tea and pouring water into the pot.
There was fragrant lamb meat and scalding cream tea on the table. The shepherd spoke a few words to his wife, and the woman immediately looked at the little eunuch with admiration and gratitude, and nodded repeatedly at the little eunuch.
Without waiting for the little eunuch to ask questions, the shepherd explained:
"My dear friend, it's not that I'm not loyal enough. Last time in the sheep pen, I got an arrow in my back as soon as I climbed up to the house. I suddenly fell off the roof and broke my leg. I don't know, my dear friend.
How did you escape from danger later? It seems that our female single Yu has a grudge against you. She was very fierce when she saw you. She waved her hand and arrested you. I wanted to say something to you at the time, but later even I
Caught. It's fine now. The female Danyu has been imprisoned by her two cousins, and no one will be able to deal with you anymore."
"Why did Shanyu's two cousins arrest her?" the young eunuch asked pretending to be casual.
"Struggle for power and profit! This is not a common thing in our family," said the shepherd.
While they were talking, the mutton was ready. The shepherd's wife brought a large basin and asked them to eat it without passing the chopsticks. Zhang Facun and several southerners had never seen such a way of eating, and they all looked at the little eunuch.
.The little eunuch smiled and said:
"Catch it with your hands, dip it in salt and eat it, pour the wine into the bowl."
"Is this a big piece of meat and a big bowl of wine, Master?" Zhu Linzong asked.
"Yes, this is how they are eaten on the grasslands."
After dinner, the young eunuch asked Zhang Facun to take out one hundred taels of gold. The young eunuch took the gold and handed it to the shepherd with both hands, saying:
"Brother, this is a little bit of our kindness. If you accept it, there will be a lot of room for you in the future!"
The shepherd refused to accept the offer and said: "My benefactor, you saved my life from a pack of wolves. I haven't repaid you yet, so how can I accept such a heavy gift from you? I want to help you, as long as I can do it."
Yes, the character of our shepherds is to stick to our word and never refuse."
The little eunuch said: "Brother, to tell you the truth, I am here to take revenge. My enemies are the same people who captured me last time. You accept the gold first, and we will stay with you for a few days."
"It doesn't matter if you stay for a few days or a year and a half. You can eat and drink as much as you want. Why do you need so much money?" The shepherd still refused to accept it.
The young eunuch lowered his face and said, "Brother, if you don't accept it anymore, we will go live somewhere else."
The shepherd saw that the little eunuch's face changed, and then he said: "Since my benefactor is forcing me to give him, I will take half of it, and I really don't dare to take any more. My benefactor saved my life, how much does it cost?
You can't be heartless. I didn't save my benefactor in the sheepfold last time, and I'm still worried about it to this day!"
When the little eunuch saw him saying this, he couldn't force himself anymore.
"Brother, let's be fair, what do you think of your daughter as compared to that woman?" the little eunuch asked the shepherd.
"My benefactor, do you want me to speak truthfully?"
"certainly!"
"Our Shanyu King Wu'er Sultan is a good person. She has done many good things for our shepherds, and everyone will remember her!"
"So brother, we are on the same path."
"Aren't you going to kill her to seek revenge?"
"How could it be? She is my wife." The little eunuch told the truth, and there was no need to beat around the bush.
"Ah, so you are the prince of the Han people?" The shepherd was shocked. He stood up from his seat and was about to kneel down and worship.
The little eunuch held him up and said angrily: "Brother, this is your fault. Now that we are a family, why are we so polite?"
"You want to save our Shanyu King, and I will risk my life to do it for you! I can also help you contact some herdsmen brothers." The shepherd patted his chest and said.
The little eunuch said: "I won't contact you anymore. You alone are enough. We are here because we are not familiar with the place. We mainly want to know about the situation in the palace."
"My lord, what do you want me to do?"
"Can you help me find out where Ur-Sultan is being held?"
"I have a cousin who works in the palace. I will ask him tomorrow."
"Okay, but this must be done in a confidential manner and cannot be leaked." The little eunuch handed the fifty taels of gold on the table to the shepherd again and said, "Brother, take this with you and ask for directions with the money.
It’s more convenient than asking for directions with your mouth.”
The shepherd nodded and said, "Then I'll put it on."
The little eunuch then asked: "Brother, please hide our donkeys, carts and horses. I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for someone to see."
"It's okay. This is a carriage and horse shop. Aren't strangers coming here every day?"
The little eunuch didn't sleep a wink all night. He didn't know whether Wu'er-Sultan had been harmed by those two traitorous cousins, as well as his precious children, Batu and Wulan.
