Li Jinyu blinked suspiciously, not understanding what Huo Caiyu meant.

Huo Caiyu didn't explain, just hugging Li Jinyu, enjoying the rare opportunity to hug.

"How far are we from the royal city of the cunning country?"

"It is estimated that I will run for a few days." Huo Caiyu thought for a while, "Are you in a hurry?"

"It's not... just a little worried. When we arrived, sister Huo had already taken down the royal city of the country, right?"

Huo Caiyu laughed: "It's not so fast. Breaking through the king's city is only the first step. The most important thing is to completely take down the cunning country and let the people of the cunning country scatter."

Otherwise, leaving only the hated cunning people will not benefit Di Chao.

When Li Jinyu read the original book, he didn't see the part after Huo Caiyu conquered the cunning country, so he was curious: "How should I do it?"

"Pacify, alienate, entrust, these are nothing more than these." Huo Caiyu kissed Li Jinyu's side face lightly, with a little smile in his tone, "However, the cunning king has provided us with a wonderful way to seek his own death." handle."

Li Jinyu frowned slightly, and then his eyes lit up: "Drought?"

"Yes. Drought is also a catastrophe for the cunning people in the grassland. If the cunning people know that their king would rather sacrifice a large area of ​​pasture, horses and even people for his own ambition, what will they think?"

Along the way, they saw many corpses of cattle, sheep and horses, and even the corpses of old cunning people.

People's hearts are fleshy, and the king of the cunning country is so mad, the people of the cunning country probably don't have much obsession with the cunning country.

Li Jinyu scratched his ears: "But how can we convince the people of the country that the drought was arranged by the king?"

"Your Majesty had such a vision when the snow fell for Dadi that day, and the country must not give up." Huo Caiyu let go of his hand, took out a handful of melon seeds from his bag and handed it to Li Jinyu, "We will see you again when we arrive at the capital of the country. Condition."

Li Jinyu took a melon seed, watched Huo Caiyu take out another walnut to crush, and hurriedly said, "You don't have to peel the walnut for me."

Huo Caiyu looked at the two with some doubts.

Li Jinyu wanted to say it a long time ago, but this time he finally managed to say it: "I eat walnuts to grind my teeth, not just for the meat inside."

Huo Caiyu looked at Li Jinyu's teeth in surprise: "Does Jinyu still grind his teeth?"

"Well, we rodents have this habit." Li Jinyu was a little embarrassed, afraid that Huo Caiyu would think too much, so he quickly explained, "It's not that I don't want to eat what you peeled for me."

Huo Caiyu couldn't help laughing, and handed over the whole walnut: "Your Majesty, bite yourself."

Li Jinyu gnawed on the walnut happily.

Huo Caiyu looked at the way Li Jinyu's mouth swelled and felt extremely cute. He took the dry food and gnawed slowly, his eyes fixed on his majesty.

He has been dealing with government affairs in the capital for too long, and it has been a long time since he simply enjoyed the leisure time now.

What's more, there is still the person he loves the most.

Even though there was nothing around but the sky and the earth, Huo Caiyu felt as if he was in the most beautiful palace.

……

In the process of rushing towards the royal city, they occasionally encountered some scattered cunning people.

The appearance of the cunning people is a little different from that of the Central Plains people, not to mention that Huo Caiyu didn't deliberately dress up, so he could tell at a glance that he was not his own.

The cunning people who met Huo Caiyu were taken aback for a moment, and then stepped back carefully to observe.

When they were observing Huo Caiyu, Huo Caiyu was also observing them.

Most of the people they met along the way were not the main young people of the country—men with good skills were conscripted into the army.

The population of Qiao State is much smaller than that of Di Dynasty. Last year, hundreds of thousands of troops were assembled in a vain attempt to complete the battle, which almost emptied the family property of Qiao State.

Originally, the cavalry of the cunning country were very powerful. The lord of the cunning country thought that with such a large force, it would only take a short time to break through Beiyue Pass, and then they would be able to run rampant in the hinterland of the Central Plains.

Unexpectedly, with the efforts of Huo Caiyu and Chi Zhongming, Beiyue Pass persisted for four months, making the country completely unable to survive, so it had to retreat and join the army.

Now that the army of the Di dynasty has entered the territory of the cunning country, the few young and middle-aged men who are left are all engaged in the defensive battle. Now the wandering people on the grassland are old, weak, sick and disabled who cannot serve as cavalry.

At least judging from the cunning people that Huo Caiyu saw a few times, they were all gray-haired old people with children who were not yet Ma Gao.

These cunning people all showed faint hostility towards Huo Caiyu, who was obviously from the Di Dynasty, but seeing that Huo Caiyu was young and strong, they all cautiously observed and retreated, and did not impulsively come forward to make things difficult.

When riding fast, Li Jinyu was lying on Huo Caiyu's neckline - Huo Caiyu sewed a small pocket here that could almost let Li Jinyu lie in it, just enough for Li Jinyu to lie comfortably in it, and to see the scenery, you only need to stick out halfway. Size will do.

This time Li Jinyu looked at the old man opposite, with a hint of regret in his eyes.

He can understand the hostility of the people of the cunning country towards them, after all, the army of the Di Dynasty is now in the territory of the cunning country.

But the cunning country committed the crime first, and if the Di Dynasty did not find a way to solve this problem completely, countless Di Dynasty soldiers and civilians would pay a huge price for resisting the cunning country's invasion in the future.

But this time they met some strange people.

In the past, the cunning people would slowly move away after weighing the difference in force, but this time this one has been blocking their way forward, neither retreating nor getting out of the way, as if waiting for Huo Caiyu to escape.

There is a small pond in front, and Huo Caiyu is trying to let the horses drink some water.

Li Jinyu moved his nose, and suddenly whispered to Huo Caiyu, "It smells like blood and medicine."

Huo Caiyu frowned slightly, looked at the old cunning man, pondered for a while, got off his horse and walked towards him.

The man didn't ride a horse, and when he saw Huo Caiyu approaching, he became more and more nervous, and chattered a series of words.

Li Jinyu couldn't understand, but he could see the growing hostility and death-defying look in the man's eyes.

After Huo Caiyu approached, the man finally couldn't help it, shouted loudly, drew out his scimitar and slashed at him!

This person looked to be in his 60s, and he was completely vulnerable to Huo Caiyu.

Huo Caiyu easily swung his arm, unloaded his scimitar, and threw the man far away with a backhand swing.

He squatted down, his eyes fell behind the position where the man was standing just now.

A comatose little girl was lying beside the pond, her face was flushed and she was running a fever, a wet rag was placed on her forehead, her legs were obviously bitten by wild animals, and there were some smashed herbs on the wound.

There were also two water-soaked rags on the ground.

Huo Caiyu was taught medical skills by his mother, so it can be seen that the child's current condition is not good.

If it's an adult, it's fine. A child of this age may burn people out if they have a fever.

The man put the child by the pond just now, obviously wanting to use water to cool the child down.

Li Jinyu poked his head out again, and took a concerned look: "Did she get bitten by a wolf?"

"It seems to be." Huo Caiyu squatted down, put his fingers on the little girl's pulse, held it for a while, and frowned, "The wound is already inflamed, and it will be too late if we don't treat it."

The man was thrown hard just now, and he rushed over with a limp, still yelling and cursing.

Huo Caiyu turned his head and said a few words to him in the cunning language.

The man froze, looked at Huo Caiyu, and then at the child lying on the ground, with obvious suspicion on his face.

Huo Caiyu said a few more words, the man gritted his teeth, turned around and ran away.

"Where did he go?"

"I asked him to find some medicinal herbs." Huo Caiyu squatted down again, and slowly injected internal energy into the little girl's body with one hand to help her sweat, while explaining to Li Jinyu, "There are a few herbs that can reduce inflammation when combined."

Neither of them mentioned whether to treat this child who is still an enemy country, as if they had a tacit understanding long ago.

Not long after, the man stumbled back with the herbs.

Huo Caiyu asked the man to smash the medicinal herbs, and then took out some of the medicines that he brought with him - naturally there is a possibility of injury if he goes to the enemy's territory, he prepared some commonly used medicinal powders in advance.

Mix the powder with water for the little girl to drink, and apply the herbs on the little girl's clean wound.

After working for a long time, under the nervous gaze of the old man, the little girl's breathing gradually became calmer, and the heat on her forehead also subsided a lot.

The old man wept with joy, holding the little girl in his arms and chattering a lot.

Huo Caiyu was not very interested in the situation of the young and old couple, and only acted out of the willingness to save people.Seeing that the little girl was no longer in danger of her life, she gave a few simple instructions and got up to leave.

The old man raised his head, shouted a few times excitedly, then turned around and left with the little girl in his arms.

Li Jinyu didn't understand, so he asked in a low voice, "What did he say?"

Huo Caiyu looked a little puzzled: "He said there was a war ahead, so he told me not to go there."

"War?" Li Jinyu was surprised, "Is it the country and our army?"

In order to get closer, they crossed from Yuanshan, but they couldn't find Di Chao's army, so they could only advance in the direction of the country's luck that Li Jinyu had seen.

If the army of the Di dynasty was fighting against the cunning country in front, then they might still find their own people, understand the current situation, and rush to the king's city faster.

Huo Caiyu discussed with Li Jinyu, let the horse drink enough water, and galloped forward.

……

On the battlefield, Huo Caiyu realized something was wrong.

The two sides in the battle are not Di Dynasty and Qiaoguo, but two waves of people from Qiaoguo.

No wonder the old man firmly told him not to come here... Presumably he knew that the two waves of people fighting here had nothing to do with him.

It's a pity that people on both sides have seen him now, and they have all set their sights on him.

Huo Caiyu sighed mentally, but he wasn't too scared.

These two groups of people said they were fighting, they had few weapons, they all relied on physical skills, and the fighters were obviously not the best.

Although Huo Caiyu is single-handed, it is not a problem to crush these ordinary people with martial arts.Soon, he knocked down more than a dozen cunning fighters who rushed up with their heads hot.

Seeing Huo Caiyu's ability to fight, the rest of the people showed fear and fled in all directions.

Huo Caiyu glanced over, keenly aware of something unusual - there were groups of people on both sides fleeing desperately, as if they were escorting some important person.

Once you discover something, you have to act.

Without hesitation, Huo Caiyu left the cunning soldiers beside him on the ground, and galloped up to catch up with a group of them.This group of people not only rode horses, but also pulled several trailers. The speed was very slow, and they were quickly overtaken by Huo Caiyu.

Three strikes, five divisions and two eliminated the surrounding guards, and Huo Caiyu looked at the pale young man lying on the ground with some inscrutability.

This man was wearing a robe embroidered with a silver wolf's head. The clothes were finely crafted, and there were jingling silver ornaments hanging around his neck. He was clearly of high status.

The golden wolf head is a symbol of the cunning monarch.Silver wolf heads are princes, princesses and tribal leaders who are slightly inferior to the monarch.

Judging from this young man's age, it doesn't look like he can afford the leader of a big tribe.

Huo Caiyu raised his eyebrows, and asked in cunning dialect: "Which prince are you?"

When the cunning country envoys went to the capital of Dichao to pay tribute and show off their might, they captured a prince, and later obtained a lot of valuable information from that prince.

The fact that Huo Caijin led the army to advance so quickly was also because he had a lot of information about the cunning country.

The young man gritted his teeth, and just about to speak, he handed the sword around his neck in: "Think carefully before answering, I don't have that much patience."

Holding the name in his hand, a trace of humiliation flashed across the young man's face, and he replied, "I'm Buck."

"The No. 13 prince of the cunning king." Huo Caiyu raised his eyebrows.

Unlike Di Chao, who has no successors, this generation of cunning kings has many sons and grandchildren, with dozens of children.Di Chao has already tortured the names of the main princes and princesses from Santo who is in his hand.

"Who is the other party?"

"It's my sixth brother, Suotu."

"Why did you fight?"

Buck clenched his fist, bowed his head and replied, "Suotu tried to embezzle my wealth."

interesting.

Li Jinyu lay on Huo Caiyu's chest, full of doubts in his heart.

The army of the Di dynasty has reached the door, but the two princes of the cunning country are fighting for property in such a remote place?

Could it be that the royal city has been breached, so these cunning nobles escaped?

Huo Caiyu also had the same doubts: "Did Chao already break through the royal city?"

Buck looked at Huo Caiyu in fear, gritted his teeth, and shook his head: "The army of Di Dynasty dare not enter the city now."

Huo Caiyu narrowed his eyes slightly: "Then why are you running out?"

Buck froze, faltering and refusing to speak.

Huo Caiyu's internal force slightly stirred the blade of the sword, and made a small cut on Buck's neck.

The pain and fear made Buck tremble all over, and there was a trace of fear in his eyes: "Because the father is already crazy."

Li Jinyu asked in surprise, "Crazy?"

Buck froze for a moment, then looked up confusedly: "Who is talking?"

It was only then that Li Jinyu remembered that he was still a little hamster, and quickly retracted his head back to Huo Caiyu's collar, pretending that he hadn't said anything.

Huo Caiyu wanted to laugh in his heart, but he still forced himself to hold back, and asked with a straight face, "Why are you crazy?"

Buck looked around suspiciously for a while, seeing nothing unusual, and then answered Huo Caiyu's question: "My father killed a lot of people, even our brothers were stupid and took it to worship the cunning god, killing them every day. ..."

In the end, Buck's voice trembled a little, and his face turned pale, "We brothers found an opportunity to escape from the royal city... Suotu and I made an appointment to escape together and go to a close tribe to regain a foothold. Thinking of going our separate ways here, he suddenly attacked me and robbed me of my treasure!"

Huo Caiyu understood.

Li Jinyu listened to Huo Caiyu's neckline, calculated in his heart, and was thinking about how to hint to Huo Caiyu to ask the time when the cunning monarch started going crazy, when he heard Huo Caiyu ask in a heartbeat: "When did he start killing people?"

Buck thought about it, and answered uncertainly: "About March?"

--March.

Li Jinyu suddenly turned back into a hamster with palpitations, and then he sensed that Di Chao's national fortune was being disturbed.

It seems that the ruler of the cunning country is sacrificing the living...

Huo Caiyu also thought of this, and his face became slightly gloomy.

Although the country is not a citizen of the Di Dynasty, this way of living sacrifices still makes him very disgusted.

"I'm done talking, can I go?" Buck looked at Huo Caiyu's thoughtful look and asked tentatively.

Huo Caiyu glanced at him, pondered for a moment, and withdrew his sword.

Buck heaved a sigh of relief, stood up scrambling, and couldn't wait to leave.

However, Huo Caiyu pressed his shoulder, and before he could react, he threw something into his mouth, and then patted Buck to make him swallow it: "This is the poison I specially prepared, you follow it honestly." I'm going."

Buck's eyes widened, and he stretched out his hand to dig in his throat, trying to spit out what he had just swallowed.

"If you spit it out, you don't want your head."

Buck froze.

"Don't worry, I won't kill you, I just need you to lead the way."

"Which way? Where are you going?"

Huo Caiyu smiled slightly: "Wangcheng."

……

Huo Caiyu only took Buck on the road alone, and was not interested in those guards.

However, those guards were still loyal, holding Buck's wealth far behind.

With Buck as a guide and Li Jinyu's ability to discern the direction, they moved forward much faster.

It's just that there is one person with him, and it's not convenient for Huo Caiyu and Li Jinyu to make out.

Worried about scaring Buck to death, Li Jinyu lay down on Huo Caiyu's palm like a hamster.

The two sat by the campfire and whispered to each other.

"Where did you get the poison?"

"It's not poison." Huo Caiyu's smiling voice condensed into a thread with internal force, which only fell into Li Jinyu's ears, "It's a peanut."

Li Jinyu: "... won't be discovered?"

"So what if you find out." Huo Caiyu gently scratched the little hamster's head, "I don't want to break his arm to threaten him. If he's smart enough, even if he finds out, he should pretend he didn't notice."

Li Jinyu once again realized Huo Caiyu's indifference to his enemies.

But speaking of it, Huo Caiyu has matured a lot now.

Because of his father's death in the frontier, Huo Caiyu used to mention the country with a hint of coldness and hostility; now that he really set foot in the territory of the country, he is much gentler than before.

Huo Caiyu noticed that Li Jinyu was distracted, and poked his butt lightly: "Jinyu, what are you thinking?"

Li Jinyu came back to his senses, scratched his face with his front paws, and said in a low voice, "I'm a little emotional, I didn't expect you to not seem too hostile to the people of the country."

The smile on Huo Caiyu's face faded a little, and he rubbed Li Jinyu's head lightly: "The ones who start the war are always the ones at the top, and most of the people are innocent - besides, since our goal is to bring the cunning country into the country , then naturally you can’t have hatred for the people here.”

Li Jinyu nodded with a half understanding.He turned his head and looked at Buck, who was sitting far away and had a bonfire alone: ​​"What are you doing with him?"

Although it is useful for Buck to guide the terrain, they know the direction of the capital of the country, so there is no need to take him.

Huo Caiyu smiled: "Except for the monarch, the other powers of the Cunning Kingdom basically exist in the form of tribes. Their interests conflict with each other, and it is difficult to coordinate. If you want to slowly assimilate the Cunning Country and let the people of the Cunning Country fully integrate into the Di Dynasty, you cannot Let them gather again. We have captured a prince before, and now we have another one at hand, and then we will divide the territory of the cunning country and let them compete with each other, so the difficulty of assimilation will be much less."

Li Jinyu thought for a while, and agreed: "Brother Huo is still thoughtful."

Huo Caiyu's heart trembled when he was called out by Li Jinyu's claim, and he wished that Li Jinyu would transform back into a human form now so that we could have some intimacy together.

However, the time and place are not right now, so he can only bow his head and kiss the little hamster's ear to chat.

Although Buck has been sitting next to his small bonfire, his eyes are always on Huo Caiyu over there.

Although he was threatened to show the way, it can be seen from Huo Caiyu's skill and demeanor that the identity of this Di Chaoren is not simple.

He was thinking about what to do.

Buck is not the favored prince of the king of the cunning country. He has always been on the edge of the king's city. He can live in peace and stability until now, all because of his ability to watch people and stand in line.

The current situation in the country has already made him feel a little hopeless about the future.

The father is almost crazy, the chiefs of the major tribes are still fighting for power, and the army of the Di Dynasty is approaching the city...

Buck even considered whether to bet on Di Chao.

This Dichao person is not an ordinary person, and Buck is hesitating whether he should use this person to try to get in touch with Dichao.

It's just that this guy is obsessed with playing with the mouse he carries with him every day, and he even touches and kisses it...

Buck shuddered.

Is Ogi Chaoren so perverted?

……

A few days later, Huo Caiyu arrived at the royal city of the cunning country with the little tail that he attached to the back.

The capital of the cunning country is probably the only place on the grassland that can be called a "city".

Although Huo Caiyu and Li Jinyu have never been to the capital of the cunning country, the royal city of a country should not be as bleak as it is in front of them.

The city gates on all sides were closed tightly, and there was not a single bonfire on the towering city walls, and there was no sound coming out, as if it were a dead city.

The flags of the Di dynasty were flying outside, and the royal city was already surrounded.

Huo Caiyu glanced at Buck: "How did you escape?"

Buck looked at Wangcheng with some fear: "When I came out, Di Chao's army hadn't surrounded yet."

In other words, Huo Caijin only arrived in Wangcheng in the past few days.

Li Jinyu poked his head out and looked at Di Chao's army surrounding the king's city but not moving forward, feeling slightly puzzled.

Now that they are all here, why not attack the city?

Huo Caiyu pondered for a while, and led Li Jinyu and Buck directly into Di Chao's army.

After identifying their identities, they begged to see Huo Caijin. After meeting, the siblings saw concern in each other's eyes.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Huo Caiyu asked about Wang Cheng: "Why is our army standing still outside?"

Huo Caijin's face darkened for a moment, and she sighed softly: "There's something wrong inside."
