-----

Yang Yuanqing did not walk on the Yulin Road, but crossed the Yellow River and walked along the southern foot of Yin Mountain. The Great Sui and Turks used Yin Mountain as the boundary. Although the Sui Dynasty did not garrison the grasslands south of Yin Mountain, there were no Sui people settled.

But the southern foot of Yin Mountain belongs to the sphere of influence of the Sui Dynasty.

Yang Yuanqing led five hundred jing cavalry to walk around the road and run eastward. After nine days, the group passed Dingxiang County and was about to enter the north of Mayi County. He had already received news that Yang Guang's convoy was parked in Qifubo

The lakeside is only more than 200 miles away from them.

At this time, it was already dark and the personal captain Zhang Sheng stepped forward to ask for instructions: "Report to the general manager, should we camp on the spot, or will we go to Qifubo overnight?"

Yang Yuanqing looked around and found that they were still in Dingxiang County. In the north were the surplus of the towering and undulating mountains, like a giant python, lying across the vast grassland. In the south was a river several miles away, with waves like mirrors.

That is the famous Jin River in the north. He saw a forest covering an area of ​​more than ten acres by the river. He pointed at it and said, "Let's rest in the woods for one night and set off early in the morning."

The cavalry urged the war horses to sail towards the southeast forest. The birch forest was very quiet, the trees were not dense, and the sunlight could shine on the ground, which was not yin-sheer. The ground was covered with a thick layer of fallen leaves, and the soldiers looked for it one after another.

Tents were set up in open space, and more than 20 scouts were distributed around the woods to patrol, and several sentries even climbed up the big trees to keep watch. Although this was within the territory of the Great Sui Dynasty, it had already reached the grassland, so everyone still dared not take it lightly.

Candles were lit in the tent, and Yang Yuanqing took the light and looked at the map. Now they were in Hohhot in later generations, and it was still a vast prairie.

Yang Yuanqing looked back at Zhaochen. She was also wearing soldier's armor and sat cross-legged on a few sheepskins. She had taken off her helmet and was combing her black waterfall-like hair.

"Can you bear the hardships of marching along the way?"

Chuchen turned around and smiled sweetly, "It's okay! I used to sleep in the open air and often stayed in the trees overnight, and I'm used to it."

She asked again: "Yuan Qing, have you finished your performance report?"

"Yeah! There's still a little left, I'm going to finish writing tonight."

Yang Yuanqing took out the memorial from his skin, sat down and thought slowly, he also wanted to write about the civil strife that occurred in the Western Turks. He had received information that the Western Turks shekui Khan was defeated by the Western Turks, and there was a unity within the Western Turks.

Yang Yuanqing pondered about the signs, and he needed to consider the words.

At this time, a report from the patrol soldiers came from outside the tent, "Report to the general manager, the patrol soldiers found something abnormal!"

Yang Yuanqing was stunned, put down his pen and walked out of the big tent, and asked, "What abnormality has been discovered?"

"A team of more than 200 people was found in the west, which seemed to be envoys, but not envoys of the Sui Dynasty, but seemed to be envoys... Goryeo."

Yang Yuanqing was a little surprised. How could the Goryeo envoy appear here? After a moment of thought, he realized that the Goryeo envoy must have gone to the capital and turned around and went north to see the emperor.

"Don't worry about them!"

Yang Yuanqing waved his hand, turned around and returned to the tent. When he walked to the door of the tent, he stopped, as if he had thought of something, and turned around and asked, "Do they have Sui soldiers or officials in the capital escort?"

"Report to the supervisor, there is no one!"

Yang Yuanqing was a little confused. This was in the Sui Dynasty. If he came from the capital or from the Central Plains, there would usually be officials accompanying him or soldiers escorting him. How could this envoy not have it?

"Let's go! Look."

Yang Yuanqing asked someone to lead a war horse, rolled over the horse, and ran out of the forest with three hundred cavalry to the west.

In the dark night, the cavalry ran at lightning and walked about ten miles to find a patrol. The patrol reported: "They were heading north five miles away."

Yang Yuanqing was even more confused. Even though the emperor was in the west, they were heading north. This felt like they were retreating north. Could it be... they were going to the Turks?

With a thought, Yang Yuanqing immediately thought of this possibility. The other party went to meet the Turks and bypassed the emperor of the Sui Dynasty, so he marched northward.

Thinking of this, he immediately urged the horse to chase northwest. The cavalry chased for seven or eight miles. Sure enough, they found a team sneaking north from afar, with about two hundred people, and they were rushing in the dark, which was undoubtedly inappropriate.

At this time, the other party also discovered them and immediately accelerated to flee north.

But the envoys carried heavy objects, and they could not escape Yang Yuanqing's jing-sharp cavalry. Three hundred cavalrymen rode their horses and ran away in just a moment. They gradually caught up with the envoys. Yang Yuanqing drew an iron arrow, took a bow and took an arrow, and the moonlight

Next, he could see clearly. He pulled his bow and arrows away. The arrows were like black lightning. 'Crack!' The arrow broke the flag pole in the envoy's hand. The envoy was shocked and slowed down.

The horse speed.

The Goryeo officer guarding next to him was furious when he saw that the flag pole was broken. He also opened his bow and arrow, clamped his horse with his legs, turned around and arrows to Yang Yuanqing's throat, with an arrow very strong.

"Good arrow!"

Yang Yuanqing cheered and drew his sword to slash the arrow. "Crack!" he cut the arrow into two segments, but he could still feel the strong power of the arrow on his knife.

This arrow made Yang Yuanqing feel familiar with the officer. Could it be him?

Yang Yuanqing shouted, "Stop them!"

Three hundred cavalry rushed forward and instantly blocked the other envoy's way. At this time, Yang Yuanqing had already seen clearly that it was indeed the Goryeo envoy. The leader of the envoy wore a tall hat unique to the Goryeo Dynasty, and the guard officer next to him

He was tall and mighty. Although he hadn't seen him for six years, Yang Yuanqing still recognized him at a glance. It was Gai Suwen who had competed with him in the Chang'an Palace.

"Who is traveling through the Sui territory without authorization?" Yang Yuanqing shouted.

The envoy did not know Yang Yuanqing and thought they were patrolling soldiers in Dingxiang County. However, Gai Suwen suddenly recognized Yang Yuanqing. He was stunned for a moment and was about to tell the envoy, but it was too late. The envoy stepped forward and bowed and said sincerely:

"In the Xia Goryeo Ministry of Revenue, Yizhi Wende, Minister of Revenue, was ordered by the King to meet the Emperor of Sui."

The envoy Yizhi Wende spoke fluent Chinese, but Gai Suwen secretly called it a bad idea. This is not a patrol soldier. This is Yang Yuanqing, the chief supervisor of Fengzhou. He must have also gone to meet the Emperor of Sui. Wouldn't this confrontation expose them?

Yizhi Wende has already said it and cannot be changed.

Gai Suwen had no choice but to laugh dryly, and stepped forward and bowed: "General Yang, we haven't seen each other for six years. I have heard that General Yang is powerful in the Central Plains and has risen to the top, which is a happy congratulation!"

"Brother, is he Yang Yuanqing?" A crisp voice sounded beside Gai Suwen.

Only then did Yang Yuanqing realize that the young general beside Gai Suwen was actually a woman, about sixteen or seventeen years old, tall and thin, with a small nose and small eyes, and a cold face. Since she was called brother, she was Gai Suwen's sister.

.

Gai Suwen quickly apologized: "This is Jiaojiao, my sister, I don't understand etiquette. Please forgive me for General Yang."

"Brother, don't be humble to him. He wants me to call him general unless he can beat the sword in my hand."

This girl is Gai Suwen's young girl named Yuan Gai Jiaojiao, also known as Gai Jiaojiao. She glanced at Yang Yuanqing arrogantly, with a look of disdain, and fiddled with an eight-foot-long rolling embroidered knife in her hand.

Yang Yuanqing ignored her and said to Goryeo envoy Yizhi Wende: "Since the envoy wants to meet the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty, he should go east and be in Qifubo, why go north?"

When Yizhi Wende heard Gai Suwen call the other party General Yang, he knew that the other party was not a patrolman. He was a little panicked and hurriedly said, "We don't know, let's turn east."

Yang Yuanqing turned around and glanced at him. A soldier jumped off his horse, picked up the talisman, and handed it to Yizhi Wende. Yang Yuanqing apologized and said, "I'm sorry just now."

"It's okay! It's okay!"

Yizhi Wende waved his hands repeatedly and said to his followers: "Let's go east!"

He urged the horse to go east and hurriedly walked away. Gai Suwen bowed to Yang Yuanqing and smiled and said, "General Yang, there will be a date in the future!"

"Take care all the way!" Yang Yuanqing gave a gift slightly.

But the Korean girl Gai Jiaojiao snorted, raised her head high, and ignored Yang Yuanqing. The personal soldiers beside Yang Yuanqing couldn't help laughing. When they walked away, the personal soldiers captain Zhang Sheng smiled and said, "Well, little girl."

She was self-indulgent, and the manager ignored her at all, but she was arrogant and thought she was beautiful? I looked like a weasel."

The cavalry laughed loudly, but Yang Yuanqing did not laugh. The appearance of this Korean envoy made him wonder, what were they doing to the Turks?

He was worried about the safety of the camp in the woods, and waved his hand, "Go back to the camp!"

The cavalry turned around and ran towards their camp.

...........

The Goryeo envoy ran east for about ten miles, then slowly stopped. Ezhi Wende turned around and asked Gai Suwen, "Who was the Sui general just now?"

Gai Suwen said to Gai Jiaojiao: "You said it!"

At this time, Gai Jiaojiao had no arrogance she had just now, but had a serious face. She bowed and said, "Justice General was Yang Yuanqing, the famous Sui Dynasty, the grandson of the former Grand Marshal Yang Su, and the inspector Zuo Xiaowei Da

General, Yin Qing Guanglu Dafu, Wuyuan County Duke, currently serves as the chief supervisor of Fengzhou and the prefect of Wuyuan County."

"It turns out that it is this person. I have heard of it. Gai Jiao Niang is worthy of being the first sight of the king in the Sui Dynasty."

Seeing that Yizhi Wende didn't take Yang Yuanqing to heart, Gai Jiaojiao sneered: "This person is not only very skilled in martial arts, but also very smart. He repeatedly defeated important officials for the Sui Emperor. If the Shangshu despises him, he will sooner or later be defeated by him.

In hand.”

Eji Wende was shocked, and then smiled bitterly and shook his head, "But I have nothing to do with him now. What does it matter whether I value him or not?"

Gai Jiaojiao said mercilessly: "But Shangshu said the wrong thing just now. You shouldn't say you went to see the Emperor of Sui. He and the Emperor of Sui knew that you were lying when they confronted him. Instead, Gai Miqian made the Emperor of Sui suspect us.

The purpose of the execution was that the Secretary of the Yizhi family was too careless.”

Eji Wende was so angry that she said it, and said with hatred: "I don't know that he is Yang Yuanqing. You know, but you don't tell me in time. Is it my fault?"

Seeing that Yizhi Wende was a little worried, Gai Suwen scolded his sister and said, "No rude to the Minister of the Yizhi!"

When Yizhi Wende thought that they were Yuan Taizuo's children, he had to swallow his anger and said, "Forget it, since it has happened, it is irreversible, let's hurry up!"

Gai Jiaojiao looked at his back, snorted coldly, and murmured to herself: "How could the king send such a stupid person to serve as a mission?"
