No one knew what exactly Zhou You and Wang Xiaojie talked about. They only knew that not long after Zhou You entered Wang Xiaojie's residence, Wang Xiaojie's angry roar came from the house, and Zhou You also walked away with an ugly expression.

Immediately afterwards, a team of Thousand Bull Guards surrounded Wang Xiaojie's residence, prohibiting anyone from contacting Wang Xiaojie, which was like house arrest.

And the next day when Zeng Tai and Li Yuanfang went to Helan Mountain, they met Li Kaigu and Qiu Jing smoothly, and invited them back to Chongzhou.

When Di Renjie met Li Kaigu and Qiu Jing and communicated with them, he also quickly ordered Wang Xiaojie's military power to be lifted and asked him to reflect on himself in the mansion.Li Kaigu was still in charge of Youweiwei's Youying troops, and Qiu Jing was immediately reinstated.

In Qiu Jing's narration, Di Renjie learned that he had mobilized Chongzhou to transport grain, grass and quilts for Wang Xiaojie's army dozens of times, but Wang Xiaojie still kept sending people over to urge them.

Qiu Jing felt it was very strange, so she sent someone to investigate secretly, and found that General Wang Xiaojie had secretly transferred the grain, grass and quilts from Chongzhou to a depression in Pingshan, west of Dongxia Shigu.

Later, the people sent by Qiu Jing discovered that a masked man in white clothes came a few days later, leading a group of men in purple clothes to put the food, grass and quilts into the car, and drove to the west, which was the boundary of the Khitan people.

So, the next day, accompanied by Zhou You and Ruyan, Di Renjie took some entourages and came to Pingshan Col to investigate.

Sure enough, this is indeed the place where food, grass and quilts were once stored, and there are some bags of official food in the simple straw shed.

When Ruyan and the others were looking around, they noticed that there was a boot in the thatch on the ground. They picked it up, turned it inside and out, and then handed it to Di Renjie who was walking by. , motioning him to take a look at the inside of the shoe.

"Chongzhou arrest? It's not the Youwei guards, but the boots of the Chongzhou governor's arrester?" After seeing it, Di Renjie's expression changed slightly, and he exchanged glances with Zhou You, seeing Ruyan come back He just tucked the boots into his sleeve in a hurry.

Seeing this, Zhou You couldn't help being a little speechless, Mr. Di's sleeve is really a treasure bag, it can be stuffed with anything, but stuffing such a worn-out shoe is not afraid of smell!

Then outside the col, they found that besides one road going west, there were also ruts on the other road going east.And according to Qiu Jing, those people in purple should have sent food, grass and blankets to the west.

To the west is the territory of the Khitan people, while to the east is a place called Qingshi Valley.

Immediately after observing the surrounding terrain, Di Renjie asked everyone to go around the back of the mountain and go up the mountain to check.Unexpectedly, after going up the mountain, I found that I couldn't see the bottom of the valley at all.And the entire valley was so steep that there was no place for people to hide at all.

Under such circumstances, that Qiu Jing actually said that the people he sent saw the masked man in white leading a group of men in purple carrying the grain, grass, quilts and clothes in the valley and heading west. It seems that his subordinates may have clairvoyance. It's really ridiculous!

While watching, the guide who led the way suddenly pointed down and said, "No, there are Khitan cavalry!"

"Quick, squat down!" Di Renjie, whose face changed slightly upon hearing this, hurriedly shouted, and asked everyone to squat down and hide in the grass.

There was a sound of horseshoes below, and faint voices blew along the mountain wind, and Di Renjie was surprised: "It's strange, how could these Khitan people speak Turkic?"

"The Khitan people speak Turkic language? No way? Uncle, could you have heard it wrong?" Ruyan on the side asked.

"I heard it too, it's indeed Turkic." Zhou You on the side couldn't help but frowned and said, "Khitan people who can speak Turkic...Turkic..."

Di Renjie also quickly made the decision to go east to Qingshi Valley. After a journey of more than 100 miles, they didn't arrive in the Qingshi Valley until evening.

A group of people climbed up a hill to investigate, and saw that the valley in front of them was actually a series of military tents, and there was a Khitan army stationed there.

"How can there be Khitan's main force here?" Zhang Huan, who followed beside him, was the first to ask in surprise and doubt.

"What's the matter? We're already on Khitan territory, isn't it normal to have their main force?" Di Ruyan asked repeatedly.

But Zhang Huan shook his head and said, "Right now, the main force of Khitan is concentrated in the north of Chongzhou, and they are going to attack Chongzhou after repairing. How could there be such a large army hiding in the mountains?"

"Could it be that the Khitan people also want to imitate Zhao Wenhui's department and sneak attack in a devious way?" Zhou You said, looking at Di Renjie at the side: "If this is the case, then we have to send someone back to Chongzhou to report the letter as soon as possible."

However, Di Renjie shook his head: "A detour? No matter how devious they are, they can't go around Chongzhou. Even if they can go around Chongzhou, if they want to attack Chongzhou, they still have to attack the city. What's the point? So they will definitely not be Khitan people!"

"Uncle, but they are all wearing Khitan uniforms!" Ruyan couldn't help but said, and Di Renjie continued: "There must be something strange here, I want to go down and have a look."

Dissuaded by Ruyan's worries, Di Renjie insisted on going down to check: "Don't worry! Zhou You is here, it's fine! Zhang Huan, Li Lang, you and Zhou You will go down with me to have a look."

Saying that, after a few people went down the mountain, Zhou You, Zhang Huan, and Li Lang, the two Qianniuwei military leaders, rode with Di Renjie towards the barracks in the valley.At the gate of the barracks, when the sergeant guarding the gate opened his mouth, both Zhou You and Di Renjie recognized that he was speaking Turkic.

After also probing in Turkic, Di Renjie took out the ring of the Great Khan, and the sergeant also shouted in Turkic, "Khan's messenger is coming", and ran straight into the barracks.

Soon, the chief general of the battalion came out on horseback.Seeing Zhou You and the others in Han costumes at first, the general was a little puzzled, but when he saw the ring of sweat in Di Renjie's hand, he immediately got off his horse and knelt down on one knee: "The last general, Wu Qishi, welcomes the envoy!"

"Are you leopard masters or eagle masters?" Di Renjie asked, and pointed out that without the order of His Majesty Khan, it is a capital offense to go out without permission. Wu Qishi panicked and quickly announced their general's name as Hari Le, but Haril has returned to Turkic yesterday.

After entering the commander's account of the military camp, Di Renjie, who tried to inquire and blackmailed him, soon got faster information from Wu Qishi, and learned that Harile obeyed the order of Prince Mochuu before leaving the army. Came to Khitan territory.

When he got out of the commander's tent, he saw a tightly guarded military tent not far away. Di Renjie inquired and learned that a Han Chinese general was imprisoned inside. Zhao Wenhui.

Di Renjie was quite surprised, and subconsciously glanced at Zhou You on the side. After leaving the military tent, he explained the good words to Ji Li Khan on the pretext of Wu Qishi, but the words were empty, so he proposed to take Zhao Wenhui to see Ji Li Kehan Khan, and asked Wu Qishi to take two people to personally escort Zhao Wenhuang to follow him.

Wu Qishi didn't doubt it for a while, so he led people to leave the camp with Zhou You and the others. When they arrived at the place where Ruyan and the others were waiting, under Di Renjie's gaze, Zhou You, his figure like an illusion, did not wait for Wu Qishi and his two friends. A follower reacted and knocked them off their horses.

At the same time, Ru Yan and the others who had been ambushing nearby also rushed forward, tied them up, and the group quickly got on their horses and left the place.
