Chapter 203 Is the throne important, or is she important?
Qi Hanzhou fell into reminiscence and spoke quietly, "When the emperor sent me to fight the Guifang, there was also a war going on on the southern border with the neighboring countries. The troops I could use were limited."
"The military force is limited, how many are there?" Yun Fu's memory came from the original owner. The original owner only knew that he had won a great victory over the Guifang because Dasheng's soldiers were strong, but he didn't know that this victory was so difficult.
Qi Hanzhou replied, "The Guifang army has 50,000 soldiers, but Dasheng can only use 10,000 at most, and their food and fodder are not very sufficient."
Therefore, the war with Guifang was not as easy to win as the outside world said.
In order to understand the Guifang tribe, he not only learned the Guifang language as quickly as possible, but also learned about all aspects of the Guifang tribe.
This information includes how the Guifang clan's leader, Wei China, came to power.
"The former Guifang clan leader, who led all the tribes, had more than one son, Kui Muzan. However, Kui Muzan was the only one qualified to inherit his position, yet he gave it up. Although the old leader resented his son, he also loved him very much. When he passed the throne to his younger brother, the current chief, Kui China, he made a request."
"That means letting Wei Muzan stay in Guifang and giving him a place to stay."
The secret letter brought back by the Dasheng spies had written that Wei Muzan had become a small chieftain in the outermost tribe of the Guifang, and this person did not pose any threat.
In addition, when he was in the tribe, Qi Hanzhou seemed to hear people in the tribe shouting a few times: "Kuai Muzan."
If it's not a duplicate name.
The man just now should be the nephew of the current Guifang leader.
Yun Fu nodded repeatedly, "I understand, I understand. Knowing yourself and your enemy ensures victory in every battle! But isn't the dog emperor too wicked? He lets you fight for him without even giving you enough manpower."
Qi Hanzhou knew that she was venting her anger for him, so he curled his lips and said dotingly, "Well, Xiao Fu'er is right."
After Yun Fu finished scolding the dog emperor, she changed the subject: "Now that you mention it, this Kui Muzan is still a lovesick man. He gave up his position for a woman from another race."
Yun Fu thought back to the woman just now. She wasn't stunningly beautiful, but she had a gentle temperament and could be considered a beauty.
When Qi Hanzhou heard him praise other men, his possessiveness towards her began to stir again: "In my heart, Xiao Fu'er is better than anything else!"
These sweet words really caught Yun Fu off guard!
"Well, if, I mean if! If there is a chance for you to sit in that position of Dasheng, would you be willing?"
Yun Fu also followed his topic, and this idea suddenly flashed through her mind.
If she wanted to seek revenge on the Dog Emperor's family, the most satisfying way would be to take away what the Dog Emperor's family cared about most.
Isn't that the location?
Qi Hanzhou thought that she was asking herself, in his heart, who was more important, the throne or her?
Without even thinking, he replied, "Xiao Fu'er, I'm not interested in that position."
"Oh, forget it if you're not interested." Yun Fu took a look at the current situation of the two and felt that it was a bit too early to talk about this topic.
——
The two men followed the map drawn by Wei Muzan, took a shortcut, and in less than a day, they arrived at the foot of the Guifang clan's sacred mountain.
The so-called holy mountain is the highest peak among the large mountain range where the Guifang clan lives.
Like a sharp sword piercing the cloud peak.
There is a deep and dense forest at the foot of the mountain, and the top of the mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist all year round, exuding a sense of mystery, like a legendary fairy mountain.
"Qi Hanzhou, do you know where that place that Wei Muzan mentioned, where outsiders are forbidden to enter, is? Do you think Cui Lin and his men could have actually entered that place by mistake?"
In Yun Fu's mind, Qi Hanzhou is now like the "Guifang Know-it-all".
Along the way, I asked him many questions about Guifang.
Qi Hanzhou showed no impatience towards her. "It should be a place like an altar for sacrifice. The Guifang tribe believes in ghosts and gods more than other places in the Five Kingdoms. Their saint is considered a messenger connecting to the divine world. On every important day, they will hold a sacrifice under the leadership of the saint."
Having said that, Qi Hanzhou frowned slightly. Yun Fu looked at the road ahead and did not notice the expression on his face.
Qi Hanzhou was disgusted by certain points in this topic, so he changed the subject.
"This sacred mountain of the Guifang tribe still has a secret."
"What secret?" Yun Fu was indeed intrigued by his topic. She originally wanted to ask the saint what was going on, but now she just put it behind her mind.
"Legend has it that the Guifang clan's sacred mountain contains treasures from the previous dynasty."
"Previous dynasty?"
Yun Fu recalled the memories retained in the original owner's mind.
The dynasty before the Great Sheng was called the Great Jin. The last emperor of the Jin Dynasty was licentious and immoral, and his country was destroyed by the Dog Emperor and Qi Hanzhou's father.
"After all, it's been hundreds of years since they started messing around. The first emperor, the Chu, started messing around! Who gave him the face?"
Qi Hanzhou was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry. His little girl always had such unique interests.
After all, the Great Jin Dynasty was a great dynasty that had lasted for hundreds of years, and its foundation was still very deep.
The Emperor of Jin, through divination by the Imperial Master, found out that the Jin Dynasty was nearing its end and that it was beyond redemption. So at the last moment, he divided the treasures in the national treasury into eight parts.
His eight most trusted confidants took the treasures and hid them in eight places.
This is the rumored Eight Treasures Map of the previous dynasty.
But no one has ever seen this picture, and no one knows what form it exists in.
One of the eight treasures in the legend is located on the sacred mountain of the Guifang clan.
Yun Fu was puzzled: "Why did the emperor of the previous dynasty hide the treasure in foreign territory?"
"Because, there was a favorite concubine in the previous dynasty who was from the Guifang clan. They took advantage of the opportunity when the concubine passed away and her soul returned to her homeland to have someone take the treasure and escape to the Guifang clan."
A glint of light flashed across Yun Fu's eyes: "If these rumors are true, then there must be treasure in this mountain."
Qi Hanzhou said, "It should be true. When the country was first founded, the treasury of the previous dynasty was indeed empty. In addition, when the emperor asked me to fight against the Guifang, he also issued a secret decree, allowing me to enter the Guifang Holy Mountain to search for treasures."
But he didn't have that idea at that time. After defeating the Guifang, he immediately returned to the court.
Who cares whether it is a treasure from the previous dynasty or not.
"Back then, my father and brother were both on the battlefield, fighting against foreign enemies. I didn't want to waste time looking for the so-called treasures of the previous dynasty."
"Yeah, yeah, it's a good thing you didn't retrieve the treasure for the dog emperor, otherwise he would have gotten it for free." Yun Fu nodded repeatedly, but she was thinking in her heart that her space was big enough and it would definitely be able to hold the treasures from the previous dynasty.
