Chapter 97 The King's Demeanor

Yelu Ruan was thinking, and suddenly heard someone walking towards him. He suddenly opened his eyes and found that although the visitor was wearing the armor of Khitan soldiers, his eyebrows and eyes were like a Han man. He hurriedly stood up and asked loudly: "Who are you? Why are you in my tent?"

There were heavy troops outside the golden tent, and this person could come in easily, which really made Yelu Ruan look at him with admiration. The man did not answer and pointed to the top of the tent with his finger, and saw a hole about more than a foot long on it. Yelu Ruan was about to call the soldiers outside the tent loudly, but the man had already flew up to him, pinched his sleeves tightly, and whispered: "Don't bluff, otherwise I'll be rude to you."

Yelu Ruan was also a person who had seen the world and knew that the visitor was not good. At this time, he took a deep breath and asked calmly: "Who is you? I have never known you and have no offense. Why did you enter the camp and assassinate me? Who sent you here?"

The man smiled and said, "The prince is worthy of being the dragon among people. He can still be calm at this time. I really admire him!"

The speaker was Yu Hengzi who had just lurked on the big tent. Seeing that the generals had left, he took advantage of Yelu Ruan's nap and quietly cut through the coarse cloth on the top of the big tent and floated down from above. Who knew that Yelu Ruan was not sleeping, and heard the rushing footsteps and immediately opened his eyes.

Yelu Ruan thought to himself: "Although this man is a Han, his accent does not look like a person from the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. Could it be that he was sent by Jin State?" Yelu Ruan couldn't move all over and said: "Since you are unwilling to give your true name, you must have decided to be in trouble with me. I am not your opponent, and if you want to kill and cut, you will listen to the emperor. However, before I die, I have a few words to say to you."

Yu Hengzi looked at him with his eyes slanted and said, "If you have something to say, don't delay time."

Yelu Ruan said calmly: "Your Excellency, the people who have issued an order to attack your Jin State will now enjoy themselves in the camp ten miles away. You Han people have a saying that there are injustices and debts. If you don't assassinate the culprit, but you come to take my life, what kind of heroes are you? If Jin State is full of simple-minded warriors like you, how could you not be destroyed by my Khitan?"

Yuhengzi didn't want to kill Yelu Ruan, but just wanted to plunder him and force the Khitan to retreat. However, after hearing what he said, he was a little hesitant. Yelu Ruan was just one of the commanders of the Khitan army. Even if he was missing, the Khitan could still continue to fight south. Besides, Yelu Deguang was already suspicious of Yelu Ruan, worried that he would threaten his throne. If Yelu Ruan was plundered at this time, wouldn't it be just right that Yelu Deguang would have helped him, and it would be too unprofitable.

When Yelu Ruan saw that Yuhengzi didn't say anything, he said, "You are a person who is very wise. I am just doing things on orders and will not die if I sin! "

Yu Hengzi let go of his hand and said slowly, "You make sense. Since Yelu Deguang is nearby, I will come to see him another day. Remember, don't tell others about this, otherwise I will take the head of your neck at any time." After saying that, he waved his arm and the big knife took action instantly, flying towards the wooden pillar in the tent. With a loud "click", the pillar as big as a bowl broke into two pieces. The big knife turned around in the tent and returned to Yu Hengzi's hand.

Yelu Ruan was stunned and said in a straight voice: "I must remember what you said."

Yu Hengzi sneered coldly: "I will do my best to say the seven swords in Western Sichuan, and do what I say! I will not dare to reveal the wind." Yelu Ruan bowed and said: "It turns out that I am a knight from Shu. I am lucky to know it!"

Yu Hengzi was shocked and remembered that he had just blurted out his words and inadvertently revealed his identity. So he said, "Prince, I still have something to do. I will ask you for advice later." After saying that, he took off his armor, raised half of the wooden stakes on the floor, put them hard on the ground, flew straight to the top of the big tent, and quickly disappeared from sight.

Yelu Ruan saw Yuhengzi's true face and saw that he was freely coming and going in his military camp, and he felt very ashamed. He turned around and looked at the half-piece of wooden stake, and found that the root had been deeply inserted into the ground. He couldn't help but sigh: "This man's martial arts skills are so powerful. How great would it be if he could use it for me." He repeatedly muttered the words "Seven Knives of Western Shu" and thought to himself: "Do they have seven in total? Shu is thousands of miles away from Yingzhou, why did they appear here? Is it really to assassinate the emperor?" Yelu Ruan thought of this, her heart pounded violently, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

At this time, horns came from outside the tent. The soldiers from the tent near the Golden Top Tent got up one after another and gathered in the open space outside the tent. Yelu Ruan didn't know what was going on in the camp, so she picked up the sword from the commander's platform and rushed outside the tent. When the soldiers saw the commander coming out, they all looked at him in confusion.

Yelu Ruan asked loudly, "What happened outside?" The soldiers did not answer. You looked at me, I looked at you, and were confused. Yelu Ruan was about to get angry when she suddenly saw a horn on the ground not far away, and she immediately understood in her heart.

Yu Hengzi left the Jinding tent, then returned to the tent passing by, untied the Khitan soldiers, and then deliberately sounded the trumpet to lead all the soldiers outside the Jinding tent, and he took advantage of the chaos to escape. Kaiyangzi and Yaoguangzi were not far away at this time. After hearing the trumpet, they thought their elder brother had been discovered and rushed towards the Jinding tent, but they met Yu Hengzi on the road, so the three of them left together.

When he arrived at the lookout beside the military camp, Yu Hengzi stopped and flew to untie the soldiers' acupoints, and then quickly went up the mountain with the two.

Kaiyangzi and Yaoguangzi were very puzzled by his behavior. Yuhengzi said, "I have promised these people before that they will untie the acupoints for them when they come back. Integrity is the foundation of being a human being. How can I destroy the rules in my heart just because of them?"

Kaiyangzi smiled and said, "Brother, aren't you afraid that they will whistle and let the Khitan soldiers chase us?" Yuhengzi said, "Everything is planned, and if it is not planned, it will be ruined. I have already thought of a countermeasure. Their horn is now outside the tent of the former camp commander."

Kaiyangzi and Yaoguangzi looked at each other and admired their elder brother's strategy. The three of them greeted each other and soon arrived at the top of the mountain to meet with the others.

When Tian Quanzi and others saw the three brothers coming back, they immediately stood up and asked, "Brother, how are you doing?" Yu Hengzi said, "Things went smoothly, I have heard a lot of news. Let's go to Cangqiong Villa now and slowly tell you what happened in the camp on the way."

The group flew onto the horse and drove the horse toward the east.
