Chapter 67 You are lying!
Under the leadership of Dibaonu,

Lu Yunyi soon saw the king's tent located in the core of the camp.

It is tall and majestic in appearance, conical in shape, with a sharp spear-like top.

The tent is made of several layers of tough animal skin and silk.

The outer layer is covered with golden decorations, which sparkle and sparkle brightly in the sun.

The tent is embroidered with exquisite patterns all around, with mythical birds and beasts such as dragons, phoenixes and eagles soaring in the clouds.

Lu Yunyi raised his eyebrows, unable to connect this scene with the dilapidated scene when he first entered the camp.

At the entrance of the royal tent, a huge golden curtain hung low, inlaid with gems and pearls, shining brightly.

On both sides of the door curtain, two towering flagpoles reach straight into the sky.

A huge flag was hung on the flagpole, embroidered with a giant wolf representing the Northern Yuan Dynasty's royal court, its sharp eyes staring at everyone who came!

After being searched thoroughly, Lu Yunyi followed the Second Prince into the room.

The first thing that catches your eye is a huge golden throne inlaid with various gems and jades, which is dazzling.

On the long table nearby were Ming Dynasty porcelain, paintings, calligraphy, and jade.
Lu Yunyi is a connoisseur of valuables, and every piece comes from the official kiln.

On the other side, various weapons and armors were placed.

It was not the half armor seen before, but a full armor, reflecting an eerie cold light, as if there was a headless person standing there.

There was a faint fragrance in the air, and the atmosphere in the king's tent was solemn, heavy and a little depressing.

The servant stood in front and gently reminded him:
"The Khan and the princess will be here shortly. You need to behave respectfully."

Lu Yunyi looked solemn and bowed slightly towards him:
"The Naiman tribe is under the control of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, so when they see the Khan, they must be respectful."

The land security guard was very satisfied with Lu Yunyi's answer and nodded slightly:
"I will help you get the seal back, but you know what to do."

Lu Yunyi felt strange and thought these grassland people acted roughly.

Everyone had already arrived in the king's tent before they began to plot loudly.

"Your Highness, please rest assured. The hatred between me and Tianbao Nu is irreconcilable."

Dibaonu smiled with satisfaction, turned around, and just stood there quietly.

As time went by, more and more people gathered in the king's tent, most of them were strong men in their thirties or forties.

According to Lu Yunyi's observation, most of them had calluses on their hands.
His shoulders were high and bulging, and at first glance he was a man who wore armor and held a sword all year round.

But at this moment, they were in their regular clothes,

Like Lu Yunyi and Di Baonu, he exudes the temperament of the Ming Dynasty from the inside out.

The land security guard did not explain what this was for, and Lu Yunyi did not ask.
He just nodded gently to the curious eyes that were cast at him, with a smile on his face.

Soon, Tianbaonu also arrived here.

After seeing the two of them, he snorted coldly and said nothing, then walked straight to sit down opposite them.

The two princes stood on the left and right, highlighting their noble status.

Finally, the small tables were filled with people.
The sound of light footsteps came from behind the big tent.

Everyone stood in awe, but Lu Yunyi glanced at the bulge on the edge of the small table in front of him.
If things go wrong, this thing can also be used as a weapon.
It would be worth the trip if I could die together with Usar Khan.

The curtain behind the big tent slowly opened, revealing Usar Khan in military uniform.
He was tall, with well-defined muscles, a strong and deep face, a high nose bridge, tightly closed lips, and sharp eyes that swept over everyone.

His hair was tied back, revealing his broad forehead, making him look more fierce.

The Princess of Beiyuan had a beautiful face and unusually delicate skin. Her eyes were as bright as stars, sparkling with wisdom and tenderness, and there was a faint smile on the corners of her mouth.

The long hair was carefully braided into a braid, hanging down to the waist, fluttering gently in the wind, adding a touch of softness.

The gorgeous robe was embroidered with delicate grassland totems, colorful, and every move was elegant.

Lu Yunyi just glanced at it and lowered his head quickly.

The rough appearance of General Lan Yu could not help but appear in my mind.
He had to admit that, at least in appearance, the general was much better than Usar Khan.

After all, the general's eyes are full of wisdom.
There was ferocity in Usar Khan's eyes, like a hungry wolf on the grassland hunting its prey.

"Greetings, Khan!" With a low call, everyone lowered their heads again and repeated the sentence.

Lu Yunyi is not very old, and his voice still has a bit of boyishness, which is particularly obvious in his voice.
Usar Khan and the princess both looked over.
Glancing at his young face, I saw a hint of solemnity in his eyes.

Although the Naiman tribe is now in decline, it is still a large tribe that has lasted for hundreds of years.

A tribe with such a profound heritage can rise rapidly as long as it produces a few heroes.

And they have heard the whole story from the two princes.
They were surprised that this 'Arisleng' was so young.
This made them doubt whether the brave performance was performed by this person.

When everyone raised their heads, Usar Khan waved his hand gently, and waiters gathered from all directions to the center.
Everyone had food on wooden plates.
When the warm bronze lid is lifted,

The aroma of meat mixed with the fragrance of cumin immediately filled the king's tent.

Lu Yunyi's nose twitched slightly, and he looked strange. Cumin is very expensive nowadays.

There aren't many restaurants in Gyeongju.
And it is expensive, but now you can actually see this thing in the royal court.

This made Lu Yunyi even more certain that the polarization in the Northern Yuan court had reached an irresolvable point.

The lowest class were slaves, and above them were nobles.

The lack of a middle class was not good news for the Northern Yuan Dynasty.

Even if the Ming Dynasty did not send troops to attack, the Northern Yuan Dynasty might have fallen apart, but it would have been a fall-apartment led by the nobles.

Those slaves were only thinking about atonement, and it was extremely difficult to get them to rebel.

At this time, Usar Khan, who was sitting at the top, looked over and asked:

"Dibaonu, is he the Taiji of the Naiman tribe?"

The earthkeeper looked calm, his eyes were as still as a well:

"Report to Khan, it is Arisleng, the Taiji of the Naiman tribe."

This attracted the attention of many people in the king's tent.

The Naiman and Kerait tribes both have a place in the long history of the grassland.

Wusarhan nodded slightly, and then looked at Tianbaonu:
"Tianbaonu, you said he is not the Taiji of the Naiman tribe?"

Tianbaonu looked unhappy and said quickly:

"Reporting to the Khan, it is true. The Naiman tribe is more than a thousand miles away from here. How could they appear here?"

Just as Dibaonu was about to speak, Wusarhan gently raised his hand to stop him, then looked at Lu Yunyi and asked:

"Are you Ariseleng, the Taiji of the Naiman tribe?"

Lu Yunyi stood up and bowed slightly: "Reporting to the Khan, yes."

Usar Khan nodded slightly, stroked his beard with his hand, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth:

"you are lying."

There was a sound of people sucking in their breaths, and everyone present showed alertness.

Dibaonu's body just stiffened, then he stopped moving, and his eyes gradually calmed down.

A hint of joy flashed in Tianbaonu's eyes, and he couldn't help but clench his fists.

Lu Yunyi's pupils shrank slightly, but he remained calm. He bowed again and said firmly:
"Khan, I'm not lying."

"The taiji of the Naiman tribe is Halbara,

When he was born, the Khan was still in the northwest, and he had given him a reward, but that was ten years ago."

Usar Khan had a smile on his face, but the ferocity in his eyes had never faded.

These words made Dibaonu stiffen up. He could no longer maintain his previous composure.

He stepped aside slightly and looked at Lu Yunyi vigilantly.

Lu Yunyi's face was calm, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes. He sighed and bowed, saying:

"Khan is wise, you are right, I am not a Taiji."

After the words fell, the people present could no longer sit still, and Tianbao Nu even shouted loudly:
"Defend the Khan and take him down!"

Lu Yunyi did not resist and just stood there quietly. Unexpectedly, Usarhan gently waved his hand:
"Don't be rude to the guests. Everyone, leave."

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. The soldiers were also shocked and retreated little by little. Usar Khan took out a big seal from his arms, played with it quietly in his big hands, and smiled softly:
“Can you tell me who you are?

Your identity is fake, but the seal of the Khan of the Sun is real."

As he spoke, he took out a large seal from his pocket.
There were also two prairie wolves howling above, and Usar Khan explained:

"This is the seal of Buyulu Khan, which was made by the craftsmen in the palace after Genghis Khan unified the country. It is not as good as yours.
Can you tell me how you got this one?"

The Naiman tribe had two great khans, one was Taiyang Khan and the other was Buyulu Khan, both of whom were defeated by the Yuan army.

Lu Yunyi calmed down a little bit, a trace of grief and anger appeared on his face at the right time, he took a deep breath and said loudly:

"Reporting to the Khan, this seal of mine was looted from my brother!"

plunder?

Brother?

Dibaonu's tense body relaxed and he moved a little closer.

"This is ridiculous, Khan. I think he is a spy sent by the Ming army!

I beg the Khan to hang him immediately!" Tian Baonu felt that the situation was taking a turn for the worse and hurriedly shouted the accusation.

But Usar Khan smiled lightly and said calmly:
"If he is a Ming Dynasty person, he is even more of an honored guest of our dynasty, how can he be hanged to death?
Moreover, this man's bravery is something that only the boys of the grassland can be born with.

We grassland people are born to eat meat, live with wolves, and are born strong.
Benhan has heard from Dibaonu,

He led 80 cavalrymen to defeat your 1,000 cavalrymen, and they were so embarrassed that they had to hide. This action has damaged your reputation as a taiji."

Tianbaonu's face froze and he couldn't help but clench his fists, not knowing what to do.

Wusarhan waved his hand gently, and then looked at Lu Yunyi:
"go on."

Lu Yunyi's face was filled with grief and anger, and he spoke angrily:
"I dare not deceive the Khan. I am the leader's brother.

He is also the bravest warrior of the Naiman tribe. Our Naiman tribe is being chased and intercepted by the Oirat and Ming troops. It is now a matter of life and death.

But my brother hesitated between fighting and not fighting.

I once proposed that the tribes be relocated, at least away from the Ming army.
Whether to surrender to the Khan or to Nahachu, both are good places to go.

But my brother was reluctant to give up his wealth and fame, and would rather die in battle in the clan land than preserve the flame and make a comeback.

So I took a thousand warriors from my tribe, seized the seal, and went to Nahachu."

Usar Khan looked thoughtful and nodded slightly:
"He is such a person. Many years ago, I sent people to the Naiman tribe to ask them to submit to the imperial court, but he was unwilling and I did not force him.

Nahachu was wiped out by the Ming army last year.
And your name often appears in the correspondence.

He praised your bravery to me more than once. He once said that you are the future of the Naiman tribe."

Lu Yunyi's body stiffened, his eyes turned red, his pupils trembled violently, as if he could no longer hold back his emotions, and he covered his face and sobbed.
"I'm sorry, brother.
The thousand or so people who followed me to seek a way out were all killed or wounded.
Now there are only a few dozen of us, hiding here and there, and finally escaping."

Wusar Khan sighed softly, raised his head and looked towards the king's tent, and some people also looked reluctant.
It was the same for them. After a lot of fighting and the deaths of many people, they were able to successfully move eastward.

The warrior in front of him, the most powerful warrior of the Naiman tribe, whose skills had been proven not long ago, was now crying in public.

Many soldiers felt the same way.
Although he was a warrior, he could not stop the decline of his tribe.

Even the Princess of Beiyuan showed a trace of emotion on her face, her eyes were full of kindness,
After all, he was just a kid who wanted his tribe to be strong.

Lu Yunyi covered his face with his hands and soon stopped sobbing.

He pulled his hands away suddenly, but his eyes were red and bloodshot, and his whole body had regained its previous strength.

He took a deep breath and said loudly:

"Khan, I, Arishileng, am the most courageous warrior of the Naiman tribe.

But it's not Taiji. I deceived the Khan and I deserve death.

But I ask the Khan to spare my remaining sixty brothers for the sake of our past kindness.
They are brave and good at fighting. They have fought many battles with the Ming army. They are people who dare to fight and die. Please, Khan, spare them!
Arsleng will bear all the responsibility!"

A sharp light flashed in Wusalhan's eyes, and his gaze was fixed on Lu Yunyi. After thinking for a moment, his voice was low and powerful:
"Are you really willing to take on all this?"

"The fault lies with Arsleng alone."

Usar Khan waved his hand gently, and immediately a waiter came forward with a respectful look on his face.

Then he handed over the seal of the Sun Khan personally.

The waiter understood what he meant and presented the seal to Lu Yunyi.

"This." Lu Yunyi widened his eyes, looking incredulous.

"Impersonating Taiji is the private matter of the Naiman tribe, and this Khan has no control over it.

But the seal of the Sun Khan is the orthodox position of the Naiman tribe.

This king will give it to you and appoint you as the Taiji of the Naiman tribe.
As for whether you want to go back and fight Halbara for the throne, it is entirely up to you."

Lu Yunyi felt at a loss for a moment and stood there, not knowing what to do.

Seeing this, Usar Khan smiled softly:
"No matter who you are from the Naiman tribe, as long as you can bring the letter back, you will be an honored guest of my royal court."

The people present looked at each other in bewilderment. After this incident, the fact of cooperation with the Tatars could no longer be concealed.

Everyone present knew about this and secretly rejoiced in their hearts.

If no letters arrived, they might have prepared to head north.

Usar Khan waved his hand gently with a smile on his face:
"Come here, serve the wine."

Soon, bottles of strong liquor were handed over, and Usar Khan and the princess raised their glasses.
Usar Khan said loudly:
"Cheers to the good news brought to us by our distant friends."

After saying this, he drank the wine in the glass. Drops of wine stained his beard, but it did not hinder his happy mood.
He just smiled and said:

"The Tatars have agreed to send troops in the spring to contain the Ming army. We can finally have some peace for a while."

Tian Baonu, who was standing at the bottom, looked relieved, picked up his wine glass, and said repeatedly:

"Congratulations Khan, this is great news.

That Ming person took the trouble to search for us everywhere.

Let them fight with the Tatar cavalry.
When the ice and snow melted, the children immediately started military training.
I will certainly ask the imperial court to send more warriors so that we can fight against the Ming Dynasty!"

Hearing this, Usar Khan laughed heartily and raised his glass again:
"Come, let's have a toast to our upcoming big victory."

A strange look flashed across Lu Yunyi's face and he quickly raised his glass.

However, when he raised his head to drink, he couldn't help but frown.

After finishing the wine in the glass, Lu Yunyi looked down at the residue in the wine, and his heart was slightly moved.

The wine is turbid, the alcohol content is not high, and very little grain is used, so a lot of water must have been mixed in it.

This shows that the Northern Yuan Dynasty court did not have much grain, which is also a major discovery.

At the same time, even when faced with a life-or-death situation, they still drank excessively and wasted food.
This shows that the Northern Yuan Dynasty had no corresponding plans for the future.
From the small to the big, if there is no such mechanism to correct mistakes in the Ming Dynasty,

The flow of government orders and military affairs will also be affected.

The direct consequence was the division between the upper and lower levels, and the soldiers' fighting power was weakened.

He had seen both of these points clearly when he came.

At this time, Dibaonu looked at the Khan with a smile on his face and said loudly:

"Khan, Arsleng is a distinguished guest of the royal court, and should not be so hard-working.
But, I saw that they fought bravely and methodically.
It would be better to ask Ariseleng Taiji to train with the royal soldiers so that they can learn a thing or two from each other."

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the people present flickered.

Learning from each other is fake, stealing skills is real.

The combat effectiveness of the grassland soldiers has made many generals miserable.

Usar Khan did not speak, but cast his eyes over.

Lu Yunyi looked embarrassed, as if he had something to hide, but soon he gritted his teeth and said:

"Since I have received the Second Prince's favor and am staying here, please feel free to teach me the rules of battle formations!"

"Good! Let's drink to celebrate the arrival of our distinguished guests." Usar Khan raised his glass again and drank it all!

After he finished his drink, he laughed:
"After three rounds of drinking, you can drink by yourselves and let me take a break."
