Yin Shisan was sent to the entrance of the Khan's tent by a puzzled Wang Chang. Wang Chang simply could not understand why his Khan, who had clearly declared that he was sick and refused to meet outsiders, would suddenly want to meet the Great Tang's envoy.
"Lord Wang, I'll go in then.”
Yin Shisan smiled confidently at Wang Chang. He understood all too well what Wang Chang could not understand.
"Ah, okay, please come in."
There were guards at the entrance of the Khan's tent. When they saw Yin Shisan, they all bowed their heads respectfully. One of them helped Yin Shisan lift the curtain and watched him enter.
Wang Chang watched as the curtain fell before he turned around and left. However, he still had a puzzled expression on his face as he muttered to himself.
"Lord Wang!"
At this moment, a guard holding an iron halberd ran over from afar and knelt down at Wang Chang in a panic.
"Get up. What's wrong?" Wang Chang hurriedly said.
The guard stood up and said breathlessly," Your nephew, Lord Wang Bing, is in trouble again!”
Wang Chang was stunned at first, then he stomped his feet hatefully, his face full of anger." Damn it, damn it. I told him not to take the bait randomly, but he didn't listen. This unfilial son!"”
Wang Chang asked the guard to lead the way and left in a hurry.
At this moment, Yin Shisan had already entered the Khan's tent. The ground of the tent was covered with a red blanket. There was a pond on each side of the tent. There were some flowers and porcelain bottles placed beside the pond. They were the only decorations in the tent.
A golden chair was set up in the tent opposite the door. The back of the chair was designed to look like a mountain range. On the mountain range was a wolf head with red eyes and teeth.
However, there was no one sitting on the chair.
Furthermore, there was no candlelight in the entire tent. Only the faint sunlight that shone in allowed Yin Shisan to barely see the situation inside the tent.
"Is Khagan here?" Yin Shisan murmured as he stood at the door.
"Please come to the back."
The voice came from behind the chair. Yin Shisan guessed that there was a small space there. He walked over and saw a small curtain on the right side of the chair. He lifted it and candlelight shone through.
"Please come in!"
Behind the curtain was a space of about 20 square meters. The ground was still covered with a red blanket.
Compared to the 'main hall' outside, this place was a bit more cozy, and it had a bit of a study. It should be the place where Jie Li Khagan usually dealt with government affairs in private and received people close to him.
There was a person sitting cross-legged on the ground in this space. When he saw Yin Shisan, he hurriedly stood up.
Yin Shisan saw that he was wearing a long white robe embroidered with a blue wolf. There were also other designs on his left and right arms, all of which were the gods worshipped by the Turks.
This person wore a blue hat inlaid with gold on his head. The tip of the hat was like a pagoda, and at the top was a pearl the size of a longan.
"Jie Li Khan?"
In the end, Yin Shisan focused his gaze on this person's face. He saw that his facial features, facial features, and even the beard he had looked very much like Jie Li Khan.
However, compared to the real Jie Li, his eyes lacked a trace of dominance and majesty.
"I wouldn't dare!"
Hearing Yin Shisan call him "Khan Jie Li", the man hurriedly bowed and said to Yin Shisan,""Since the emissary has come under the orders of the Khagan, how could he not know that I am a fake?”
Yin Shisan nodded. He didn't expect the other party to be so tactful. He silently took out the ring that Jie Li gave him and handed it to the fake Jie Li.
Swoosh!
The fake Jie Li hurriedly knelt down and respectfully took the ring. He looked at it with respect and handed it back to Yin Shisan.
"Get up, we can talk.”
"Yes, sir!"
Because of Jie Li's ring, in front of Yin Shisan, the fake Jie Li was like his subordinate and was very respectful to him.
"It seems that you were the one acting as Khan Jie Li while he was in the Central Plains?”
"Yes." Fake Jie Li said,"Khagan is also afraid that others will find out, so he told me to pretend to be sick and not easily meet outsiders."”
Yin Shisan was a little curious." During this period of time, no one insisted on meeting you?”
"No!" Fake Jie Li shook his head and said," Khagan usually lives in seclusion. Coupled with his natural dignity, no one dares to be impudent in front of him."”
Yin Shisan nodded, understanding the real Jie Li's usual character from the fake Jie Li's mouth." He was decisive and ruthless.
However, this did not mean that Jie Li Khan was wrong. In fact, if one wanted to be a ruler and rule over thousands of people, they would have to cut off their normal hearts.
"Other than you personal guards, who else knows that the Khagan is in the Central Plains?”
"No one knows." It's called Jie Li Road.
Yin Shisan shook his head with a smile." I'm afraid that's not true. If the Jieli Khan can arrange for you to monitor the Turkic officials and people, then the other people who covet the throne of Khan will naturally arrange for similar spies to monitor him.”
" This…" Fake Jie Li hesitated for a moment. He frowned slightly, not knowing how to answer.
" Old Sheepskin must have come back early and told you everything he needed to say," Yin Shisan said calmly." Otherwise, you wouldn't have waited for me to come and see me." Since that's the case, you must know that Jie Li Khagan was obstructed in the Central Plains. If you don't tell the truth and delay the Khagan's return, can you bear this responsibility?”
As he spoke, Yin Shisan's gaze suddenly turned sharp. The aura around him was no longer as casual as before. Instead, it was as majestic as a mountain and as deep as an abyss.
"I wouldn't dare!"
Fake Jie Li was indeed intimidated by Yin Thirteen and hurriedly bowed. He told Yin Shisan that the division of power within the Turks was so complicated that even the real Jie Li Khan might not be able to straighten it out, much less a fake like him.
"All we can do is to balance everyone's relationship on the surface. Perhaps some people are already suspecting that the Khagan isn't in the Turks, but as long as I don't give myself away and give them sufficient evidence, they can't do anything.”
"So you mean this matter can't be made public?”Yin Shisan raised an eyebrow.
"No!" He was forced to speak out.
Yin Shisan lowered his head and muttered to himself. He and Zhang Zhongjian had come to the Turks to find out more about the Turks. They also wanted to use the excuse that Jie Li was trapped in the Central Plains to reach an agreement with the Turks. They wanted the Turks to give them 2000 good horses first, then send troops south to the north of Bingzhou City, waving flags and shouting. They wanted to make it look like they were going to attack Bingzhou to contain Liu Wuzhou's forces.
But from the current situation, if they couldn't tell him the fact that Jie Li Khan was trapped in the Central Plains, it would be very difficult to reach a cooperation.
"Of course Jie Li knows this, but if that's the case, why did he call me over?”Yin Shisan's frown deepened.
"Milord, even if we don't reveal the fact that the Khagan is trapped in the Central Plains, our Turks and the Great Tang can still work together.”
"Oh?" Fake Jie Li's words stunned Yin Shisan. He looked at him in confusion." Tell me, what should we do?”
