To show sincerity, the banquet was held outside Juyan City. Looking far away, there is a thousand miles of desert and a flat river.

As the horses passed by, the ground under their feet trembled.

Three thousand remnants against twenty thousand cavalry.

Miao Yufeng gritted his teeth secretly.

Even Miao Zhiguang felt the tense atmosphere, changed his expression, and looked nervously at Shen Menghan.

If he replied with the word "good", the [-] iron cavalry that were crushing outside the city would probably step down on Juyan City and massacre those uninvited guests from afar.

But what happened at this moment, Wu Duo would not mention it, and Shen Menghan naturally would not speak to the outside world.

Wuduo could live in Yancheng, and Nanyan signed an alliance with Xianbei as he wished.

The best of both worlds.

Only the Ji family army who should not have lived here was sacrificed.

Shen Menghan suddenly loosened his back, and said apologetically: "It's a pity, the golden whip was given to the Great Khan in Juyan City, and this banquet was also set up by Juyan City for the Great Khan. I'm afraid it's wrong to talk about Xianbei and Nanyan at this time." inappropriate."

He put away his playful look and spoke calmly. He not only showed his good intentions to Juyancheng, but also relied on his status, neither humble nor overbearing, showing the majesty and grace of being born in the royal family.

Miao Zhiguang beside him let out a long sigh of relief, but his heart was secretly awe-inspiring.

Wu Duo Da Khan stared at him for a while and said: "Prince think about it, and then talk about the covenant, I'm afraid it will not be so easy."

Shen Menghan still insisted: "Today I am just accompanying the guests."

Wu Duolang laughed and said, "Good! Good! Good!"

"Then I'll hold a banquet for Nanyan's prince tomorrow, okay?"

Shen Menghan bowed and said, "Yes."

Wu Duo Da Khan turned around and said to Miao Yufeng: "I can allow you Ji Jiajun to continue living here. But there is only one condition."

At this moment, Miao Yufeng was already covered with sweat and heavy armor, and said solemnly: "Khan, please tell me."

"Gu can let Juyan City go. But," Wu Duo sweated and pointed at Shen Menghan, "I want this person to be the lord of Juyan City."

Not only the generals in Juyan City were silent.

Miao Yufeng was stunned for a moment, and Shen Menghan was also stunned for a moment. He bowed to Wuduo and flatly refused, "I'm afraid this is inappropriate."

"What's wrong?"

Wu Duo didn't wait for his response, but just looked straight at Miao Yufeng.

Everyone understands that Shen Menghan is Nanyan's hostage and won't be able to leave Beijing anytime soon, and Wuduo's move is not really for Shen Menghan to lead Juyan City, but for Juyan City to make a choice whether to continue to be loyal to Beizhao.

How can you allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch?

Miao Yufeng was silent for a moment and said: "I have no control over this matter, Juyan City will give Da Khan an answer tomorrow."

Wu Duo smiled: "Yes."

This time Shen Menghan could no longer stay out of the matter, so he could only sit in the tent with folded arms and listen to the quarrel among the generals in Juyan City.

A gust of cold wind blew past and lifted a corner of the curtain, Miao Zhiguangyao outside the tent and Shen Menghan inside the tent looked at each other.

Miao Zhiguang couldn't understand his attitude of not having any business to do with himself, strode into the tent, kicked him when he entered the door and said, "You should have something to say."

The tent suddenly fell silent, and dozens of pairs of eyes looked at Shen Menghan.

Shen Menghan whispered: "Is this your attitude towards the future city lord?"

Miao Zhiguang was taken aback for a moment, then opened his mouth soundlessly.

Shen Menghan ignored him, and said loudly: "If you still have doubts about my identity, I can swear here that even if Juyancheng is loyal to me, I will not make Juyancheng do anything that is not good for Beizhao. .”

He bowed around the circle, the boy's tone was light and cold, like the first spring when the ice river first cracked and the fine snow melted: "Thanks to the favor of the martial arts alliance, I am the leader of the alliance, everyone should know that I am not lying.

I have also made this oath with Beizhao Wulin alliance. If he breaks his promise in the future, you can go and stay on your own, and Shen Yuyin is also willing to follow your disposal. "

As soon as this remark came out, Miao Yufeng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't evade, he didn't care about the left and right, he fought for his own interests.The young man responded bluntly.

The person recommended by the Wulin League is really chic and happy.

Miao Yufeng was the first to bow to Shen Menghan and said, "Master Shen."

After a while, the crowd said sparsely: "Master Shen."

"City Lord Shen."

Shen Menghan smiled, but only looked at Miao Zhiguang.

Miao Zhiguang reluctantly saluted him indiscriminately: "Master Shen."

As soon as he raised his head, he saw Shen Menghan's expression of holding back a smile, and suddenly he said in his heart: "Would the city lord take me back to Beizhao?"

Miao Yufeng slapped him over and scolded, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Miao Zhiguang felt aggrieved and said, "Isn't it okay to ask casually?"

On the second day, Wu Duo really hosted a banquet for Shen Menghan outside the city.

He slept until noon, and as soon as he got out of the tent, the teenagers sitting around outside the tent all looked over. Shen Menghan was still in shock and said, "What is this for?"

Miao Zhiguang said: "I will support you."

Shen Menghan twirled his fingertips under his sleeve lightly, and said with a light smile, "Brother Miao has changed his sex?"

"Where are you talking so much?" Miao Zhiguang said impatiently: "Since you have become our city lord, why would you be asked to go to the meeting alone?"

Shen Menghan remained motionless: "I won't take you."

He turned to Liu Bei and said, "Follow me."

Miao Zhiguang said angrily, "What do you mean?"

Shen Menghan turned to look at him and said, "I'm afraid you won't listen to me."

Miao Zhiguang said awkwardly, "I'll listen to you."

Shen Menghan raised his brows again, and Miao Zhiguang felt that he was going to say something embarrassing for him again, and cursed and swore: "I will definitely obey! If I continue to make my own way, I will be struck by lightning and die!"

Shen Menghan hurriedly said: "Hey, you take it back, you are not my bodyguard, I don't need you to obey."

Miao Zhiguang said: "If I obey orders, can you take me back to Beizhao?"

As soon as these words came out, Shen Menghan gave him a serious look, frowned and said, "Why do you want to go back to Beizhao?"

Miao Zhiguang said: "I am from Beizhao, my mother and sisters are all staying in Beizhao, so naturally I want to go back."

Shen Menghan's heart skipped a beat: Miao Yufeng is a trusted confidant of Ji Dynasty, and his relatives have already been punished by Emperor Zhao, so there are still family members staying in Beizhao.

He squinted at Miao Zhiguang and said, "Bringing you to Beizhao, I'm afraid I'm causing trouble for myself."

Miao Zhiguang couldn't bear it anymore, and cursed: "I have never seen such a ignorant person like you!"

Shen Menghan wondered: "If someone rejects you, does that mean you don't know what to do?"

Miao Zhiguang blushed and said, "You...you..."

You have been talking for a long time, but you haven't said anything.

Shen Menghan is good at Goulan, and he has been rampant in the court of Beizhao for eight years. If you talk about sharp teeth, I am afraid that no one can be found who can talk about him.

Seeing that he was very angry, Shen Menghan accepted him when he saw that he was okay, "Thank you, little brother Miao, for your willingness to accompany me, but whether you can follow me to Beizhao depends on your father's wishes."

It's not that he has an unforgiving temperament, it's just that he rarely meets a group of young people of about the same age, with lively personalities, seeing them playing together and getting into trouble together, with deep friendship, he can't help being envious, and just now he thought of teasing them.

But Miao Zhiguang didn't even know about the death of his mother and sister, so Miao Yufeng would not let him return to Beizhao with Shen Menghan.

At night, Shen Menghan changed his clothes before taking Miao Zhiguang and Liu Bei to the Khan Tent for the appointment.

Although he won the Golden Whip of Khan, the benefits have already been promised to Ju Yancheng. Even Miao Zhiguang and Liu Bei know that it may not be so easy to negotiate peace again.

On the way there, Miao Zhiguang asked Shen Menghan, "Do you still have something like a sweaty golden whip?"

"What are you thinking?" Shen Menghan widened his eyes and said, "The golden whip of sweat on the grassland is comparable to the jade seal of the Central Plains. There is no other such thing."

Miao Zhiguang worried: "Then what are you going to use to negotiate peace with Wu Duo Da Khan?"

Shen Menghan wondered: "This matter has only advantages and no disadvantages with Xianbei, why does Wuduo Da Khan not allow it?"

Miao Zhiguang said in a daze, "Then why do you take the risk of taking Khan's golden whip?"

Shen Menghan said indifferently: "I am so young, if I rashly go to discuss the alliance, how do you think Wu Duo Dahan will think of Nanyan?"

"You will definitely feel that Nanyan sent a child with a yellow mouth here, and his intentions are not sincere." He squinted at Miao Zhiguang: "You have real skills, and others will look up to you."

Miao Zhiguang was not convinced: "You are born to be Nan Yan's prince, and others are bound to look up to you."

Shen Menghan was speechless for a long while, before he said: "Who told you that I was born to be Nanyan's prince?"

Miao Zhiguang came to the outside of the pass when he was four years old, and he didn't know the rumors of Zhongtu.

Shen Menghan didn't pay any attention to him, and rode forward on his own.

Twenty thousand soldiers and horses were stationed outside the city of Juyan, with flags covering the sun and horses neighing.

Miao Zhiguang and Liu Bei grew up outside the Great Wall, but they had never seen such a big battle before, so they couldn't help being awed.

Shen Menghan didn't take it seriously, with a calm face, he walked into the sweat tent like a leisurely stroll, turning a blind eye to the warriors on both sides who were staring at him.

In the early spring of the Northland, the weather was still cold, so he changed into a narrow-sleeved martial robe, but it was still the style of the Southland, the light smoke-colored shimmering water satin, and Miao Zhiguang thought it was cold when he looked at it.

He was so calm and composed, Miao Zhiguang and Liu Bei had no choice but to gather their expressions, and tremblingly accepted Shen Menghan into the table.

Thousands of troops lined up in front of them, all of them had bright eyes and deep breaths.

They are all first-class Xianbei warriors.

Majestic dismounting.

Miao Zhiguang gritted his teeth secretly, watching the battle, he kept saying that Wu Duo Da Khan would not embarrass him, maybe it was just wishful thinking.

After three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, the dancers on the grassland stepped forward to perform dances. The Xianbei women are always bold, with skirts reaching their waists, and the crisp snow is half exposed.

Shen Menghan hurriedly retreated, just to avoid, the woman's cloak was hanging on the face of Miao Zhiguang who was standing behind Shen Menghan.

The woman smiled and retreated as soon as he explored, and the drape brushed his cheeks, Miao Zhiguang's face suddenly turned green and purple, and it was brilliant all of a sudden.

Miao Zhiguang dared not speak out, and glared at Shen Menghan bitterly: "What are you hiding?"

Shen Menghan said calmly: "I'm Duanxiu, how can I provoke women."

Miao Zhiguang was taken aback, and took a step back calmly, moving a little further away.

"What are you hiding?" Shen Menghan squinted at him.

Miao Zhiguang secretly slandered, since you are a broken sleeve and like to tease me, how can you not avoid it?

"What do you think I look like?" Seeing his expression, Shen Menghan said solemnly.

Miao Zhiguang glanced at him quickly, and said nervously, what does this mean?

He said against his will: "It's okay..."

Although he was indeed good-looking, he didn't have to be.

Shen Menghan smiled and said: "So what do you think I will like you?"

Miao Zhiguang yelled, "Day you..."

Shen Menghan gave him a cold look, his eyes were cold and solemn, showing all his majesty.

He abruptly withdrew his voice.

Shen Menghan's gaze was not for him.

Wu Duo Da Khan lightly clapped his hands on the main seat, the sound of the clapping came down gradually, and the sound of frolicking in the arena gradually died down.

Miao Zhiguang also lost his expression and stood on one side.

Wu Duo sweated profusely and said: "Prince Nanyan won the Khan Golden Whip from Fuming City, he must be good at martial arts."

Shen Menghan said politely: "Don't dare to be that."

Wu Duo sweated profusely and said, "We Xianbei people always like to make friends through martial arts, would Prince Nanyan wish to compete with our Xianbei warriors?"

Shen Menghan said happily: "Being respectful is worse than obeying orders."

Wu Duo sweated and said with a smile: "If the prince can win two out of three rounds, Gu will make an alliance with Nanyan as the prince wishes."

Shen Menghan said: "May I respect the will of the Great Khan."

Sweat oozes from Miao Zhiguang's head: "Didn't you say that Da Khan won't embarrass you?"

Shen Menghan wondered: "It's just a martial arts competition, so it's difficult?"

Miao Zhiguang said: "You don't know, their martial arts competition is not as good as our Central Plains, and the people on the field will either die or be injured. How can you accept it so easily!"

Shen Menghan said clearly: "Oh, then I'll be more careful."

Wu Duo Da Khan ordered Wu Ji and others to withdraw, and the field was instantly vacated.With another high-five, the two teams of warriors filed forward and offered bows and arrows.

Shen Menghan's face collapsed suddenly, Miao Zhiguang noticed his expression, and whispered: "What?"

Shen Menghan said angrily, "I don't know how to shoot arrows."
