Chapter 625: Each Has His Own Agenda
Jinbo was extremely unhappy.
Du Buqin came, but why did he choose Nanchang as his first target? Now he is in a dilemma.
Thinking back to last night's confrontation with Du Bujin, when he boasted that he would capture Du Bujin and make him a dog, he wanted to slap himself a few times.
Su Jiuni, Bai Yu, Du Buqin, Bai Xiaofeng and the three brothers of the Su family, these famous figures on the wanted list of the nine countries in the Central Plains, their reputations had long spread to the Xiongnu.
Especially after the destruction of the Nansang Kingdom, the situation in the Central Plains changed drastically, and it seemed that Dai Viet was the only one to follow its lead. The names of those people became even more famous.
Afterwards, Su Jiuni and his group performed a drama with the Human royal family, which continued to increase their prestige. Now, anyone with a little power and status in the Xiongnu knows that these people are not easy to mess with.
Otherwise, the Khan would not have issued a wanted order, but a kill order.
He was the first to offend Dubuqun.
Given their vengeful nature, they will definitely come back again.
He needs to find help to share some of the hatred.
But he didn't expect that he was not the only smart person. The other three had also thought of it and could not be fooled.
Damn his father.
Jin Bo didn't respond directly. He suppressed his displeasure and said with a forced smile, "In order to capture these people, the Khan issued wanted orders to all tribes and deployed troops in pursuit, but he didn't send any reinforcements to Yicheng. What exactly is behind this? I'll go back and think about it carefully. When I figure it out, I'll ask everyone to discuss it together. Until then, brother Ganye Hualan must hide well! Otherwise, Du Buqin might smell the scent and find us. I don't know if I can help you then!"
Lan Yu's expression changed slightly and his eyes turned cold.
Xubu Chan and Aronie also frowned.
How could they not hear the threat in the words of the South Field Master?
Those words were not only said to Lan Yu, but also to the two of them.
This means that they will not be left out of this matter!
The conversation ended unpleasantly. When the four of them left, they were too lazy to even say goodbye and had no intention of being polite.
As they boarded the carriage back to Nanchang, Jin Bo was still furious with Lan Yu, gritting his teeth. "A pimp who lives among women and makes money from women has been hanging around in Yicheng for over a decade. He really thinks he's a big shot, thinking he can be on equal footing with me, and now he's dancing in front of me!"
"Master, Du Buwei has arrived in Yicheng. This matter cannot be taken lightly. I believe we should report it immediately."
Also sitting in the carriage was a man in his forties, Jin Bo's most trusted right-hand man, Akan. He said, "Isn't the Khan pursuing Du Buqin and the others? If you can capture them and bring them before the Khan, it will be a great achievement."
"You think too simply. Would I need to resort to such a desperate measure if reporting it to my superiors? Would I come here only to be ridiculed for nothing?" Jin Bo snorted, closed his eyes and stopped talking.
On the other side, in the carriage heading to the north district of the city, Aronie's eyelids were half closed, and his eyes were deep and unfathomable.
The carriage moved slowly along, and the streets were filled with all kinds of shouting, scolding, and conversation, making a noisy scene.
He reached out and lifted a corner of the car curtain, and the cold wind that kept hitting the curtain immediately rushed in, making people's eyes hurt.
"Layman, what do you think?" he asked.
The coachman was wearing a thick coat and a fur hat on his head. The hat was so big that it almost covered half of his face.
Hearing the question, he shook the reins and turned his head slightly, "Master, are you asking about immunity to poison or the Khan?"
"Khan."
"Two years ago, the royal power in the capital changed hands. When the Khan came to power, other powerful people also took advantage of the chaos to seize power. Now, the actual power they hold is almost equal to that of the Khan. How can the Khan be happy?
He wanted to take action against the powerful, but if he did it alone, a fight between them would not only deplete his own strength but also take too much time.
Su Jiuni and the others appeared at the perfect time, becoming a knife in the Khan's hand. The Khan deliberately issued a wanted order and deployed troops throughout the Xiongnu territory, driving those people to Yicheng, hoping to use them to deal with the powerful people in the capital."
Arony lowered the curtain, and the invading cold wind immediately disappeared. He curled his lips into a smile and said calmly, "Indeed."
Behind all the slave farms and fighting arenas, big and small, in Yicheng are the shadows of the powerful people in the royal capital.
As long as the Khan used the knife well, the blade could cut from Yicheng to the royal capital and injure the flesh of the powerful.
But no one is a fool. Once the powerful and wealthy guess the Khan's thoughts, it is hard to say who will take action first.
"So, it's impossible for the three owners of the East, West, and South to report to their master and ask for help. Otherwise, they would be dragging their master into the water and sacrificing him. In this case, let's help. The Khan cannot be hindered in what he wants to do."
"I'll do it."
"Um."
…
Tianbao and his group had breakfast at the inn and then went out for a stroll.
Su Wu was very interested in animal fighting, and he used all kinds of tricks to persuade several people to go to the east of the city.
The deep winter on the grassland is much colder than that in the Central Plains. After entering the eastern part of the city, you will see various ice sculptures of ferocious beasts on both sides of the road leading to the Colosseum, which are beautiful and imposing.
"Is this a giant beast? This is a snow wolf! This is some kind of dog! This is a blind bear!" The old man was not interested at first, but when he saw the ice sculptures, he became more excited. "Oh my god, in my old age, this is the first time I know that someone actually raises these beasts for fighting!"
"It's so cold, but there are still a lot of people coming to watch the beast fights." Wheat Ear looked around. There was an endless stream of people going to the Colosseum. Before noon, the open space in front of the Colosseum was already filled with carriages.
Many of the carriages had family crests on their shafts, so it was obvious that their owners were all descendants of powerful clans.
While they were watching from the doorway for a moment, Su Wu had already run back and forth into the arena and came out excitedly greeting everyone, "We've arrived just in time! The next round of beast fighting is about to begin. Hurry in and find a seat! The front row is already packed!"
Bai Yu took Tian Bao by the hand and shrugged off Su Wu's words, "Do we really need to stand in the front row to watch the beast fight? You're underestimating us!"
Bai Xiaofeng hated to pamper him the most, so he kicked him as soon as he raised his leg.
Tianbao moved Bai Yuping to another position without even looking away.
Bai Xiaofeng, "..." My face?
Bai Yu, "..." My face...
Su Wu, "Hahahaha!"
While they were playing, a carriage suddenly came galloping from behind them, and they stopped to look back.
The carriage slowed down as it approached, and the servant driving it bowed to the people on the road. "I'm sorry to bother you, my dear guests. We're delivering food to the fighting beasts in the north arena. Please bear with me! I'll definitely show you a wonderful beast fight later!"
The servant drove through the open space in the middle. The cold wind blew a gap in the side curtains, and a strong smell of blood immediately rushed out from the gap and spread in the cold air.
The fishy smell is so strong that it makes people sick.
Tianbao slowed down his pace, slightly pursed the corners of his lips, and watched the carriage stop in front of the Colosseum gate.
The food in the car was quickly taken out and wrapped in a leather blanket, making its true appearance invisible. However, blood dripping from both ends of the blanket fell on the white snow, forming bright red blood spots.
