Chapter 104: Don't think about it
Helian Khan looked at He Xiu sternly, just sneering.
Now, the situation is over. Now I hear this person talking nonsense, and this person is just thinking about proving how he was right at the beginning, which will only make people feel hateful.
He Xiu kept muttering, but his heart was completely cold. For fifteen years, he has been planning for the Hu people again and again over the past fifteen years, but who expected that it would eventually become today's situation. The glory and wealth that he thought was now lost.
Suddenly, he suddenly remembered something. Perhaps because of his instinct to survive, his eyes suddenly opened, and a trace of ecstasy flashed through these eyes.
He looked at Helian Dahan: "Khan, we are not completely without a chance."
"What?" Helian Khan narrowed his eyes and looked at He Xiu.
He Xiu suppressed the excitement in his heart: "Have Dahan ever thought about what the Khan has to do to Chen Kaizhi? Ha... Dahan, even if Chen Kaizhi killed Dahan, what's the use? On this grassland, the strong are the most respected. Once Dahan dies, he will soon be able to fight out a new Khan. He will take his tribe members to escape into the depths of the desert, but decades later, his descendants will lead countless Hu people to the south."
"So... Chen Kaizhi is such a scheming person. Will he only be willing to vent his anger for a moment and kill the Khan?"
He Xiu said excitedly: "He can, or may not. All of this depends on the Khan. If the Khan temporarily surrenders to him and beg him to spare the Khan's life, for him, it would be better for him to spare the Khan and put the Khan back to the desert and lead the tribe to surrender to him Chen Kaizhi than if a Khan hated them reappeared on the grassland."
"The most important thing for the Han people is face. In their eyes, the face is bigger than the sky, which is the so-called status. Therefore, as long as the Khan expresses obedience and is willing to serve him, Chen Kaizhi will be willing to spare the Khan, and even will make the Khan take his tribe back to the desert. The Khan can temporarily surrender to them, secretly, prepare for war and rest, just like the King of Yue Goujian. We Han people have a saying that a gentleman takes revenge, and it is not too late for ten years... The Khan, this is the only way."
Helian Khan squinted his eyes. He seemed to think He Xiu's words were reasonable. Seeing He Xiu's excited look, he said, "Did I really let Ben Khan admit defeat to him?"
"This is easy." He Xiu said: "The Khan can speak some Chinese language, but after all, he is not proficient. If Chen Kaizhi summoned the Khan, the slave could go with the Khan. At that time, let the Khan beg for mercy to Chen Kaizhi on behalf of the Khan."
Helian Khan wanted to survive. In fact, when he put down his weapons and became a prisoner, he did not fight to the end, but his desire to survive had gained the upper hand. But now, instead of being a prisoner, he certainly hoped that his tiger would have the opportunity to return to the mountains and forests. At this time, his eyes also saw the dawn, especially after He Xiu's analysis, he even consciously saw the opportunity.
"Then... I can give it a try."
As the two were talking, a few people had already arrived and actually opened the prison door and took them out.
He Xiu suppressed his inner excitement. He knew in his heart that he still had a chance to struggle to survive, so he only looked at his next performance.
They were taken to the big tent, and many people walked around in the big tent. When they saw these two people coming in, many people put down what they were doing. Many people looked over coldly, with cold eyes in their eyes.
He Xiu glanced at Helian Khan and whispered to Helian Khan in Hu language: "Shan, kneel down quickly."
When Helian Khan heard this, he knelt on the ground without hesitation.
Although he felt a lot of humiliation, he was comforting himself in his heart that this was just a moment. When he returned to the desert, sooner or later, he would repay his humiliation today.
He Xiu had seen Chen Kaizhi. Chen Kaizhi's outfit was different. He hurriedly bowed and said, "My teacher He Xiu, on behalf of Helian Khan, greeted His Majesty. Helian Khan did not speak Chinese, so... Therefore, I am apologizing to Your Majesty for His Majesty. Helian Khan did not know that Your Majesty was the destiny of heaven, but it was a crime of death."
"He Xiu." Chen Kaizhi smiled: "I remember, we met not long ago."
He Xiu kowtowed and said, "Yes, I was rude at that time, so I would like to forgive you."
Chen Kaizhi sat down and looked at him casually: "I remember, I asked you why you want to serve the Hu people, and what you said is that the Hu people are strong and powerful, and each of them is their own masters, right?"
He Xiu smiled embarrassedly: "I will die."
Although he was in a desperate situation, he seemed not too scared, as if he had figured out Chen Kaizhi's trump card, or in other words, had grasped Chen Kaizhi's psychology.
Of course, on the surface, he looked in fear.
Chen Kaizhi then sighed and said, "I also heard that you keenly realized that the Hu people should not fight us in a decisive battle, so they kept persuading the Hu people not to advance immediately, but the final result is to make you feel sad now, right?"
"No, no..." He Xiu shook his head and denied: "I am a Han Chinese. In my opinion, the Han army has won now, and it is not too late to be happy. I... This time, Helian Khan is here to pay his respects. Helian Khan already knows his mistake. He knows that he has committed the crime of death, so he hopes to get forgiveness from His Majesty. The Hu people in the desert are arrogant and rebellious. He also hopes to be a shepherd dog for His Majesty."
"Sheepdog?" Chen Kaizhi frowned slightly.
He Xiu said: "It's just sheepdogs. The Hu people are sheep, which will always cause trouble to Your Majesty. If Helian Dahan can return to the desert and manage these rebellious Hu people for Your Majesty, wouldn't they just sheepdogs?"
Chen Kaizhi sighed with a smile: "Do you really think so?"
He Xiu was stunned: "What does Your Majesty mean?"
Chen Kaizhi said: "Do you really think that you and this so-called Khan can go back to the desert?"
He Xiu smiled awkwardly: "Of course it depends on Your Majesty's meaning. The life and death of me and the Khan are only in your mind. However, I think that Your Majesty's wiseness will definitely know the power of this place and will make the most beneficial choice for Your Majesty."
He said this, Chen Kaizhi had already drawn his sword. His sword shook and inserted it straight between his humerus. The smile on He Xiu's face was still there, and he suddenly felt pain and started to wail: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."
He held his humerus and blood flowed out of Popo.
