"In fact, I have always admired King Zhao's courage and strategy."

"oh?"

Rong Zhen didn't look at him, nor did he drink the wine in front of him.

"I want King Zhao to cooperate with me and take back my position."

Hearing Kedar's words, Rong Zhen stared at his amber eyes in confusion. It turned out that Kedar was not a sand bandit, but a general from the western border. He was driven out by the king because he committed some minor crimes, so he started to be a sand bandit on the border outside the Great Wall with some loyal soldiers, doing some sneaky business.

After three years, Kedar, who had not given up, had been looking for an opportunity to return to the tribe, hoping to regain his status as an equal to the king.

"After all these years of wandering outside, I thought that instead of lingering on like this outside until I die of old age, it would be better to return to the border and lead the frontier. If King Zhao is willing to lend a helping hand, then I can help you next."

Rong Zhen gradually relaxed his vigilance against him and took a sip of the wine in front of him. The wine of the minority tribes is always very strong and their temperaments are also very upright. This Kedar has been wandering outside for many years, and as soon as he returns to the west, he will be chased out.

"How do you want me to help you?"

"Hahaha, King Zhao is straightforward. I know that you and the tribes in Western Xinjiang have always been at odds, and the talks about the marriage were not very pleasant. You people in the Central Plains are the best at playing tricks, so the ruler of Western Xinjiang is preparing to send troops to attack you in the Central Plains. My spies have also obtained some intelligence, which I can sell to you as a business. Of course, we are friends."

Rong Zhen's expression was gentle and indifferent, but at this moment it revealed a slight sharpness.

"intelligence?"

"Hahaha, King Zhao, don't worry. I have stayed near the desert for many years and I know the interactions between these tribes best. They united with the forces in the Western Frontier in order to break out of the Great Wall and attack the Central Plains."

"Tell me something that I don't know, such as how to reach the territory of the Buyi tribe." Rong Zhen thought that if he could go on a diplomatic mission in person and with full sincerity, and sign peace terms with the various tribes, this would also avoid a war of gunpowder.

The Buyi are the most valiant and warlike nation in the entire Western Xinjiang. They conquered the world on horseback. The herdsmen are as strong as bulls, and one person can beat ten people. The women there are also very passionate and unrestrained, and slaughtering pigs and sheep is a common occurrence.

If we can find the leader of the common people, maybe everything will become clear.

"Hahaha, to be honest, I haven't been to Buyi yet. The people there are ferocious, barbaric and vulgar. They want to fight before even a few words are spoken. They are stubborn and unreformable and difficult to educate!"

When talking about common people, Kedar's eyes were full of contempt.

"Do you have a route map there?" Rong Zhen still cared about this. Kedalton paused, then whispered a few words to his men, and someone handed over a sheepskin map.

"I lost hundreds of my brothers to find this route. It is heavily guarded and even a bird can hardly fly in. Without the leader's approval and the documents to pass the customs, you can't get in at all."

When Kedar said this, he shook his head several times.

"Then I'll take this first. Can you release the Central Plains caravan?"

Seeing that Rong Zhen seemed to have agreed, Kedar laughed, patted his thigh, and said heroically: "Of course, Xiao Su Li, go and release the person!"

"yes."

This little girl named Xiao Suli is only fifteen years old. She has a pretty face but is dressed very roughly. She wears a loose sheepskin skirt that can only cover some important parts.

"By the way, seeing that Your Highness has come to the desert alone, Kedar has not fulfilled his duty as a host. If Your Highness has any instructions, Kedar will do his best. This little Su Li is well-behaved and smart. She can help you explore the way. Why not bring her with you?"

This was not the first time that Rong Zhen came to the outside of the Great Wall. He was very familiar with the routes there, but it was indeed difficult for him to meet the leaders of the various tribes in Western Xinjiang. Perhaps keeping little Su Li by his side would be of some use, but he knew that Kedar just wanted to place a spy by his side.

"This glass of wine is for you." Rong Zhen raised the big bowl, which was also a tacit agreement. Little Su Li followed Rong Zhen obediently, taking every step he took.

Huang Zijun watched as the sky was getting dark, and finally he saw the prince. He couldn't help but move forward and said, "Prince, you're here." Suddenly, he saw a little head pop up behind him. The girl was dressed like a savage. The girl was thin, but her eyes were very clear and bright, just like the stream in a small pond.

"Take little Su Li and change her into clean clothes first."

"yes."

Rong Zhen gave Huang Zijun instructions and returned to the tent first. He took the sheepskin map bought from Kedar and looked at it carefully. If the territories of the various tribes in Western Xinjiang were added together, once they united, it would be easy to capture the Central Plains.

But as long as the relationship between common people and Bianxi is alienated, the one who will benefit will be Da Qi.

After changing her clothes, little Su Li walked into the tent. Rong Zhen silently looked up at her and said to her, "Go sleep next door, someone will look after you." Little Su Li didn't say anything, but just looked at him with her bright eyes.

"You can't speak?"

Rong Zhen looked at her curiously. Her delicate oval face was as clear and bright as if inlaid with two dazzling witch gems.

Little Su Li still didn't say anything. She just sat next to him and just watched over him.

Gu Yunru led Qingxing and Xiuyun on their way and stood on the sand dune. They saw that there seemed to be light nearby and saw tents being built one by one.

"Look! Aren't those King Zhao's men?" Gu Yunru's excitement was beyond words as he asked Qingxing and Xiuyun beside him.

"It seems like they really are King Zhao's men!" Qingxing's eyes were filled with tears of excitement. After so many days of hard work, they finally found King Zhao's army and horses.

"Great, let's go down quickly!"

The military camp was only one step away from them, but suddenly they heard the sound of someone falling to the ground. Gu Yunru slowly turned her head and saw Xiuyun lying in a pool of blood.

At some point, a woman in purple clothes appeared behind them. She had a slim figure, a cold murderous look between her eyebrows, and a purple mask. Her hair was flying in the wind, and there was a drop of blood on the tip of her eyebrows. She was holding a scimitar in her hand and approached them.

"Miss, run!" Qingxing shouted, and she and Gu Yunru quickly rushed to the sand dunes at the foot of the mountain. As long as they got close to the military camp, they would be able to avoid the attack of this killer.

Zi Luo was very good at Qinggong, and soon caught up with them, blocking them in front of her, with a slight smile on her lips, stabbing at them with the scimitar in her hand. Gu Yunru closed her eyes in despair. I didn't expect that she would bid farewell to the world in this way.
