Chapter 625 Want to cover up

It was getting deeper in the night, and in the tent of Tushetu Khan, the big khan from Tushetu Khan was sleeping soundly with a young woman in his arms. Although he was not young this year, his habit of loving wine and women has not changed. He almost never had any women to have fun every night, and the same is true tonight.

I don't know when, suddenly I heard a noise vaguely. The sweat that was sleeping so heavily the moment before suddenly woke up. With his extremely inconsistent age, he grabbed the woman in his arms and rolled back, and grabbed the knife on the side with his other hand.

"Sweat! Sweat!"

"What happened?" Tu Xietuhan had already pulled out his knife, and the cold light of the blade flashed with a cold light under the vague light. The awakened woman was half fond, with her big terrified eyes, and was grabbed by Tu Xietuhan in her hand and blocked her in front of her. If an accident happened, at least this woman could allow herself to block a fatal blow.

He did not issue the bill at the first time because he knew that if it was an enemy attack or a tribal mutiny, it would be very unsafe to issue the bill at this time, so he just hid in a safer corner of the tent and asked the outside world.

"Khan, I am Eris. The guest just ran away..." The voice of Eris came from outside the tent. Tushetuhan finally felt relieved. Eris was Tushetuhan's confidant and an important general under his command. But as soon as he let go, Eris' second half of Eris's words shocked Tushetuhan. At this time, he didn't care much, let go of the woman he was holding and quickly left the tent.

After leaving the tent, Tuxituhan discovered that there were many people gathering outside. These people were his personal guards. The leader was naturally Eris who had just spoken. Several of these people were wearing torches and shone the light outside the tent.

"What's going on?" Tu Xietuhan asked with an ugly expression.

Eris hurriedly came forward to report that just a quarter of an hour ago, he heard something in the east of the camp, and then sent someone to take a look. Unexpectedly, he found that the guards in the east of the camp were gone, and the war horse fence near the east of the camp was opened, and there were several unconscious guards on the ground.

In shock, Eris hurriedly followed up and found out that it was the Thirteenth Prince who was with his men who quietly left the camp under the cover of nearly a thousand Mongolians. They not only brought down the guards who monitored the Thirteenth Prince, but also many guards who guarded the camp.

In addition, they took away a thousand war horses and took advantage of the cover of the night to unknown wherever they went. When Eris learned about it, he was shocked. On the one hand, he quickly sent his subordinates to chase him, and on the other hand, he hurriedly brought people to report to Tuxituhan.

When Tu Xietuhan heard this, his face looked extremely ugly. He did not expect that the Thirteenth Prince would run away under his nose. The Thirteenth Prince's identity was destined to be worthy. Originally, Xietuhan had an abacus and wanted to use the Thirteenth Prince's identity to prepare for him to integrate various Mongolian divisions. At the same time, he held the Thirteenth Prince in his hands, which was also an important bargaining chip.

Although the Qing Dynasty has been lost since Beijing and Kangxi's death, the Qing Dynasty has been declining, and it is no longer as afraid as it was in the eyes of the Mongolian tribes. However, no matter what, the lean camel is bigger than a horse, and the Qing Dynasty is no longer good. With the strength of the Qing Dynasty, it is still more than enough to deal with a mere Mongolian tribe.

Previously, the Thirteenth Prince had been urging him to integrate Mongolian tribes as soon as possible, and torn apart with Emperor Jianxing on the grounds of Kangxi's death, and took advantage of the Qingming War to support Mongolian power to gain the power of the Qing Dynasty. However, Tushetuhan thought about it and thought that this was too risky for him, but at the same time he also saw opportunities in it, so Tushetuhan had always been with the idea of ​​getting along with everything, changing his mind, or trying to get the best of both worlds at the lowest cost.

To be honest, this is Tu Xietu Khan, which is not as far-sighted as the Khan. It is not necessary to compare with Genghis Khan who was in the world in the world, even Erdan was far inferior to that of the original. Perhaps it was because of the years of peaceful and comfortable life that had long eroded his spirit, and coupled with the flaws in his personality, he was even more indecisive.

Originally, he held the Thirteenth Prince, but in fact he was still thinking of taking the Thirteenth Prince as a hostage. Once Emperor Jianxing was really angry because of the discussion, and if he could not defeat the Qing army, the Thirteenth Prince would become the best bargaining chip. At least he was Emperor Jianxing's younger brother and Kangxi's Thirteenth Prince. With this, it should be no problem to exchange the Thirteenth Prince's head for his own safety.

But Tuxituhan never expected that the chips he thought he had controlled were inexplicably running away. What made him even more angry was that the reason why the Thirteenth Prince was able to escape was actually the help of his own tribe members.

Thinking of this, Tu Xietuhan couldn't help but feel frightened when he was angry. Could it be that he could not even control his tribe members? If the Thirteenth Prince did not run away but used these tribe members to chop off his head, would his head be cut off in a daze?

"Khan, what happened?" At this moment, a voice sounded, and Tuxituhan looked at the fire and saw the officials sent by Ortai.

"It turns out it's Lord Wu." Tu Xietuhan smiled and said calmly: "No big deal, there was something wrong with the fence, and some cattle and sheep ran away."

"Just ran away some cattle and sheep?" Lord Wu seemed a little disbelief and asked in surprise.

"Yes, more than a thousand cattle and sheep, and dozens of horses, damn dog slaves! I can't even get a fence!" Tu Xietuhan cursed angrily.

Then, he smiled and said to Lord Wu: "It's a bit panic when his subordinates cause trouble. Lord Wu was really Xiao Wang's fault."

"Where are, cattle and sheep have always been the foundation of Mongolian tribes. It is natural that Khan is angry about this, so there is no need to do so." Lord Wu said with a smile.

"Hahaha, let the servants below do these small things. Lord Wu should go and rest earlier. It's still early this night. I'll wait until Xiao Wang will accompany Lord Wu tomorrow."

"The Khan said this to be a poor man. Since there is nothing to do, I will go to rest. Don't work too hard, just don't work too hard."

The two of them politely said a few words, and Lord Wu bowed and headed towards his camp until he could not see Lord Wu. At this time, Tu Xietuhan waved to Eris.

"Try to send people to chase after you. If you can catch up, it's best if you can. If you can't catch up, come back." Tuxituhan whispered. He originally planned to make a big fuss, but Lord Wu who appeared just now made him alert. If he did this, wouldn't it mean to tell the Qing court that the Thirteenth Prince had been hiding in his tribe?

Eris was about to leave, and Tushetuhan immediately stopped calling again, and gave him a few words with a gloomy expression. Eris was stunned and was about to dissuade him, but when he saw Tushetuhan's extremely ugly face, he finally nodded helplessly.

When he returned to the tent, Lord Wu immediately recruited his followers and asked him to go out quietly to find out what had happened. After a moment, the followers returned and whispered that they did not find out the exact news. According to what the Mongolians said, some cattle, sheep and horses ran away. Just before, Tu Xietuhan chopped off the heads of more than a dozen guards and sent thousands of cavalry to chase the cattle, sheep and horses.
