Chapter 444 Killing Three Birds With One Stone

Logically speaking, shouldn't he stay far away?

Hassan looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he lowered his voice and said to Jingli: "Three days ago, Liu Kui came from Xijing and said that His Majesty has been sleeping for more than three days and has not had any water!"

Jingli was shocked when he heard this. Liu Kui's return from Xijing would take at least four or five days, and when he left, the Emperor of Liao had already stopped drinking water.

It has been almost a week, and there is no such thing as nutrient solution in ancient times, so is he still alive?
The emperor of the Dafeng Dynasty died at the beginning of this year.

Now, the emperor of Liao Kingdom is probably dead.

This world is in chaos, even if it is not chaotic.

It seems that some things need to be planned in advance.

Hassan continued: "After taking away this batch of goods, I don't plan to go out anymore. I want to find a shelter in Chang'an City and settle my family. I wonder if your Majesty can be accommodating?"

Jingli didn't agree at all, but said with a smile on her face: "What? There are several tribes around here that can't tolerate Brother Hassan?"

Hassan smiled bitterly: "Why do you have to joke about me? Although the surrounding tribes are good, they are still under the care of my concubine. But if there is no one to look after me, or my concubine is too busy to do anything, I'm afraid the situation will not be good!"

This is what Jingli is worried about. The grassland is not like Middle Earth. Once you conquer a place, you can quickly take it into your own hands.

It is difficult to achieve complete enlightenment due to differences in cultural beliefs in various aspects. We can only temporarily suppress them with force, use barbarians to control barbarians, and slowly domesticate them.

"Brother Hassan wants to settle in Chang'an. Naturally, he is welcome. However, I have something to entrust to Brother Hassan. Is it okay?"

Hassan looked embarrassed, but he still gritted his teeth and agreed: "Whatever you say, Madam, I will do whatever it takes for Hassan to do it!"

He and Liu Kui were close friends, and he knew that Liu Kui had now completely separated from the Liao royal family and devoted himself to doing things for the man in front of him.

This person was bold in employing people, and the rewards he gave were generous.

Hassan didn't want to get involved in the mess in Xijing, but there was no safer place in the world than Chang'an. Even for the sake of his family, he had to accept this petition.

Jingli nodded when she saw him, "Don't worry too much, I just want Brother Hassan to help me escape from the Liao royal family, and by the way, help me bring a message to Yelu Mengtu!"

At this time, Yelumengtu stood by the Youshui River, looking at the rolling river water, and said to Wulin Damo: "Teacher, what do you think of the news I received today?"

Wulin Damo twisted his beard and replied: "I always feel that it is a bit strange that the eldest prince killed a pair of children of the third prince!"

"Although the eldest prince is lacking in strategy, he is not so short-sighted. What is the regret of life and death for two three-year-old children?"

"Besides, the third prince has more than just these two children, so it is inevitable to feel sad. But it is impossible to say that these two children have been ruined. So, what reason does the eldest prince have to kill these two children?"

Yelu Mengtu nodded: "Students also make such speculations. By acting like this, the eldest brother is obviously asking for trouble!"

Wulin Damo said with a solemn expression: "Your Highness, the most terrifying thing now is that if the eldest prince and the third prince have doubts about this matter, they will be in trouble after they wake up!"

Yelumengtu didn't react: "I just have doubts. It's a foregone conclusion. What else can I do?"

"Your Highness, if there is suspicion between the two of them, who should bear the brunt of the suspicion?" Wulin Damo said helplessly.

Yelumengtu suddenly woke up: "Teacher, what you mean is that they will suspect that I am the one who profited from it?" Wulin Damo nodded: "Concubine Taiwu's son is under age, except for His Highness, don't think of anyone else!"

Yelu Mengtu felt extremely aggrieved. How could this be all about him? He was thousands of miles away in the Western Regions, so he couldn't escape from this cauldron!

"Who is it? Who is so vicious?"

"You actually resorted to such a plan of killing three birds with one stone, leaving me speechless!" Yelu Mengtu said bitterly, kicking away the stone beside him.

Wulin Damo continued: "His Majesty is not good now. It is estimated that after we rush back, His Majesty will have passed away. Who knows, the eldest prince and the third prince will join forces to deal with His Highness, so we have to make plans early!"

Jing Li, who also realized that this was wrong, talked about it with Huan Yuan after returning home: "Sir, no matter how I think about it, I still feel that this is wrong?"

"It seems like a plan to kill three birds with one stone!"

"More than that, we can't be said to be one of those birds!" Huan Yuan still shook his broken cattail fan, which made Jing Li's eyes hurt. The feather fan and silk scarf are what makes a counselor look good, right?
Jingli was surprised: "What does it have to do with us?"

Huan Yuan shook his cattail leaf fan and said slowly: "Princess, think about it, if the two princes who are fighting to death now wake up, who will they think is responsible for this?"

Jing Li thought for a moment and said, "I must think it was the second child who did it. After all, there are three adult brothers, and they are in trouble. The one who gets the benefit is definitely the second child, Yelu Mengtu!"

Huan Yuan smiled slightly and said: "Young lady thinks so clearly, and Wulin Damo is not stupid. He will also analyze that his Second Highness is taking the blame for this matter!"

"Last year, the empress played all kinds of conspiracies on the grassland. Do you think that master and apprentice Wulin Damo think that we are also involved?"

Damn it, Jing Li couldn't help but want to burst out, who is so wicked, plotting against the Liao royal family, including her.

In Yelu Mengtu's heart, Dingding already thought that she was ambitious and wanted to disrupt the Liao royal family.

Although she did want to cause trouble, and she did want to play the game of brothers fighting each other, she would not do it to a pair of twins. She was still such a young child, so she couldn't do it.

Huan Yuan's eyes were very sure. Regardless of whether you can do it or not, Yelu Mengtu will feel that this is what you can do.

Jing Li scratched her head: "It's up to him. Just take the blame. If you can do anything, even if I try to split Yelu Mengtu's brain open now, he probably won't believe that I didn't do it!"

I don't want to talk about this kind of thing if I can't explain it clearly. Yelumengtu wanted to kill his two brothers for a day or two. Maybe he was secretly planning it now.

Jingli returned to the backyard, where Caichun and Cai Ling had already prepared meals.

Caichun scooped a small bowl of fish soup for Jingli and said, "My wife, try it and see, it's the little crucian carp that rises from the Jinshui River!"

"Hmm! It tastes good!" Jingli took a bite and found it really delicious: "The Jinshui River is near Quze. It's so far away. Who brought it here?"

Although the fish tastes good, Jinshui River is more than a hundred miles away from Chang'an, close to Beidi.

It was such a hot day, but it was delivered from there. Thinking of the things delivered from such a distance, Jingli felt a little off.

Now is the time when the world is in chaos. There are constant refugees outside the pass. Every day, people die of starvation and illness as soon as they arrive at the pass.

A bowl of fish soup like hers would have gone to great lengths to deliver it from a hundred miles away.

So, the person who sent the fish was really cruel!
