Chapter 418 The old man didn't pick it up for nothing (Part 2)
"What? Are you going to Xue Yantuo?" Li Yuan's face became serious just as he heard Li Muyun say something.
Li Muyun nodded: "Yes, if I consider that I need to find a guy familiar with the grassland to follow me, I will leave directly from Lingzhou."
The guy who is familiar with the grassland refers to Dietimu. Li Yuan knew very well, so he didn't ask much. He just took a deep breath after listening to Li Muyun's words and said, "You kid are really stupid and have a good fortune. Fortunately, you didn't come out of Lingzhou directly, but came back."
"Why?" Li Muyun moved the small stool back to Li Yuan, looking humbly. However, Li Yuan did not answer his question immediately, but instead asked him: "Do you think Bazhuo is a person who considers the consequences of doing things?"
Li Muyun shook his head: "Of course not. If he were that kind of person, he wouldn't have promised me to destroy his elder brother. He wouldn't have killed his father so quickly. It was precisely because of this that I bewitched him."
Li Yuan nodded: "Since that's the case, what do you think he wants to do most after he succeeds by chance?"
"It's not just a murder to silence me?" Li Muyun asked tentatively.
He considered the question raised by Li Yuan when he was in Chang'an, but at that time Li Shimin gave him a reassurance and told him that there would be no problem, so he agreed to go out and make Xue Yantuo.
Now that the old Li Yuan has brought up the old story again, Li Muyun finally realized that he was not wrong at the beginning. This time he went to Xue Yantuo, it is likely that he would be a result of going without returning.
The vast grasslands are often uninhabited. It is normal to die a few people under such circumstances. If Ba Zhuo is cruel and brave, he can kill him without his knowledge.
Looking at Li Muyun's face changing several times, a proud smile appeared on Li Yuan's old face: "Why? I was scared?"
"No, I just feel..., a little incredible!"
"I'm afraid I think my second brother is cheating you?" Li Yuan mercilessly exposed Li Muyun's lies, and then raised his hand to stop Li Muyun who wanted to explain: "You don't need to explain. In fact, if anyone else has such an idea. But everything has two sides, just like those Taoists said, "The way of the Great Dao is 50, the day of the four nine, and there is also a 'one' that escapes, which is your chance."
Maybe Li Yuan's words were too profound. Li Muyun lowered his head and thought for a long time, and finally shook his head and said, "I don't understand."
Li Yuan looked at him deeply, and finally sighed and said, "I think the reason why the second child sent someone to Xue Yantuo is not to let you die, but to test your ability. If you can come back from Xue Yantuo this time, there must be good things waiting for you."
"Good thing? Is Kaiguo County Duke a good thing?" Li Muyun asked with a wry smile when he heard the word "good thing".
Li Yuan was stunned for a moment: "Have you all promoted to the Duke?"
"Well, Kaiguo County Duke!"
Old Li Yuan glanced at Li Muyun with contempt and said sneeringly: "Then what else are you not satisfied with? How old are you, less than twenty? If the Kaiguo County Duke who is less than twenty years old does not make any achievements, how can you ask the second child to explain this to the people below?"
Li Muyun scratched his head awkwardly: "I, I'm not dissatisfied, I just said it was a bit incredible!"
"Stop giving me this set." Li Yuan waved his hand impatiently, picked up the teapot in his other hand and took a sip: "Let's continue to talk about the serious matter!"
"Oh, you said, I'll listen!" After all, things are related to their own lives, Li Muyun nodded in a good manner.
"I suggest that you go to Xueyantuo this time and don't go directly to the Xueyantuo tent. If I were you, I would go to the Tiel people's territory first, give them a nod to the orders and appoint a little khan, then go to the Uighurs, and then the Pugu. When you walk the entire grassland aside, all the little khans will be appointed. Finally, go to the Xueyantuo tent and see Bazhuo."
Li Yuan said a lot in one breath, and after that, he looked at Li Muyun, as if waiting for him to complete the plan.
What Li Muyun is good at is logical reasoning. When Old Li Yuan was halfway through, he already understood how he should do it. After the old man stopped, he interjected and said: "In this way, I can lend some people from every tribe, find some free guards for myself under the banner of celebrating Bazhuo, and also find some allies who are kind to the Tang Dynasty. If Bazhuo really wants to do anything, those guys who are more kind and ambitious as us will take the initiative to stand up. Is that what it means?"
Li Yuan nodded with a smile: "No, a child can teach you! So the second brother is not sending you to a dead end, he should just be testing you."
Li Muyun said with some fear: "Is this person a bit too ruthless? What if I didn't go back to Shuozhou? Or even if I went back to Shuozhou, I didn't come to you? Wouldn't that be dead?"
Shaking his head, Li Yuan denied Li Muyun: "No, the second child is very careful. Even if you are really stupid and plunged into the Xueyantuo tent, I believe he will have a backup plan. But I can't guess what his backup plan is."
...
As it turned out, Old Li Yuan's guess was indeed correct. When Li Muyun found Dieshumu and brought five hundred Khitan cavalry back to Shuozhou City, Su Lie was already waiting for him.
Su Wanqing came to him happily and said excitedly: "Mu Yun, brother received the emperor's will last night. He will take you with three thousand cavalrymen to Xueyantuo!"
"Oh!" Su Lie didn't plan to tell Li Muyun the news so soon, but he couldn't resist the girl's outgoing attitude. Before he could say anything, Su Wanqing had already told her sweetheart about all this, making Lao Lie cry or laugh.
Fortunately, Li Muyun is not the kind of ignorant person. Although Su Wanqing had already told him everything, she still honestly stepped forward and gave Su Lie a gift: "Everything on the road depends on the elder brother!"
"Forget it, we are a family in the end!" Su Lie shook his head helplessly: "This time I'm here to inform you so that you can prepare."
"No matter what, I still want to thank my elder brother. And with you, you are here, this time I have increased my confidence." Li Muyun blinked his eyes "sincerely", not knowing what he was thinking in his heart, but in short, Lao Su was a little furious when he saw it.
