Chapter 1656

"Great Chanyu, is this really sweet dew?"

The Xiongnu Left Guli King asked tentatively.

From Helian Cha's expression, this thing didn't seem like sweet dew sent down by heaven at all!

Helian Cha looked at the Xiongnu generals who were all staring at him, as well as the Xiongnu soldiers scanning from not far away. He forcibly suppressed his disgust and swallowed it in one gulp.

"Hahaha!"

"This is naturally sweet dew, bestowed by the Eternal Heaven upon hearing my cry!"

"Delicious, truly delicious!"

Helian Cha laughed loudly and spoke to the generals.

Under the night sky, everyone stared at the expression on Helian Cha's face; no one spoke.

This sweet dew seemed to be Helian Cha's lie.

"Then why did Your Highness say you saw a lump of bird droppings?" The Xiongnu Left Guli King believed in the Eternal Heaven relatively more, so he asked with courage.

"Father Khan, it really... really was..."

Batier's stomach was churning. He just swallowed it so easily?

But why was this necessary?

He wanted to speak, but almost instantly, Helian Cha's gaze, which looked like it wanted to kill, swept over. "Oh?"

"Father Khan really was what?"

This look, this tone.

Batier came to his senses. Although he still didn't understand the reason, Helian Cha had already eaten it, so what else could he say?

"Father Khan really is wise and martial, that even the Eternal Heaven personally bestowed such a delicacy! Father Khan must be carrying the mandate of heaven to rule the 108 tribes of the grassland and achieve merit for ten thousand generations!"

"I must have seen wrong earlier."

"That must have been... no, that was definitely not bird droppings!"

Batier hurriedly said.

"Correct, it is sweet dew. I saw it clearly; that bird is an envoy of the Eternal Heaven!"

"The Great Chanyu swallowed it; if this isn't sweet dew, what could it be?"

"The retching earlier was just because the sweet dew entered the mouth too suddenly; it's a protective mechanism of the human body. The Great Chanyu's reaction is understandable, not disgusting retching!"

"Correct, our tribe will definitely be unprecedentedly strong under the Great Chanyu's leadership!"

A group of Xiongnu generals flattered him, speaking one after another.

Helian Cha had a bitter expression, feeling as if he had been screwed over.

His life... was too bitter!

Being heavily humiliated by that Living Yama was one thing, but now he had actually swallowed bird droppings and couldn't spit them out, having to swallow them in one gulp as sweet dew.

He looked up at the sky, his heart letting out bursts of cries.

Oh, vast heaven, you are too cruel!

This night was destined to be sleepless.

These few days were destined to be without appetite.

"..."

The next day.

Yanmen Pass.

Golden sunlight fell, covering the entire Yanmen Pass. The atmosphere in Yanmen Pass was one of joy, and the people all wore unprecedented smiles on their faces.

Gao Yang slept until noon, feeling refreshed.

"This sleep was great!"

Gao Yang stretched, his bones making crisp cracking sounds.

"Prime Minister Gao, get up and eat."

"This subordinate has already prepared wine and food; I ask the Prime Minister to move over!"

At this time, Li Chengye's voice came from outside the door.

Gurgle.

Gao Yang touched his stomach, which was making a gurgling sound, and felt a sense of hunger.

"Coming!"

Gao Yang shouted, then quickly put on his clothes and pushed open the door.

Outside the door.

Li Chengye was waiting. When he saw Gao Yang, his face was full of rich smiles.

"I slept so long that I kept Commandery Governor Li waiting; this is truly not right." Gao Yang stepped forward and spoke politely to Li Chengye.

"The Lord traveled a long distance, so resting and adjusting is only human nature. The Prime Minister is too polite."

The two exchanged pleasantries and came to the main hall, where a table full of delicious dishes was set.

Gao Yang was truly hungry and started eating immediately.

Li Chengye had been an official for many years and was naturally very good at speaking. Gao Yang didn't even need to be mentioned; as a poisonous strategist, he could easily handle it.

The meal was enjoyed by both host and guest.

After eating and drinking to his heart's content.

Gao Yang said to Li Chengye, "If Commandery Governor Li has nothing to do, why not take me to stroll around Yanmen Pass? I have always heard that border operas have a bit more iron-bloodedness and desolation than the operas in Changancheng, and three parts less extravagance. Since I have time today, I would like to see them."

Li Chengye was startled.

Is this going to the brothel to listen to music?

According to the rules, Li Chengye originally thought Gao Yang would lead the army to depart in the afternoon to report back to Changancheng and return triumphantly, but did Gao Yang not want to leave?

But for just one day, going to the brothel to listen to music wouldn't have much of an impact.

Therefore, Li Chengye didn't say much.

He got up, took Gao Yang and his personal guards, strolled around various places in Yanmen Pass, and then went to the Zuihua Building to listen to music.

However.

The second day.

"Commandery Governor Li, nothing to do today; why not go to the Zuihua Building together to listen to music?"

Li Chengye: "..."

The army is tired and exhausted; resting for two days is understandable!

"Prime Minister Gao, this time let's go to the Listening Tide Pavilion."

The third day.

"Commandery Governor Li, nothing to do today; why not go listen to music again?"

Li Chengye: "..."

Just three days, only one day more than two days; this is still acceptable.

The fourth day.

"Commandery Governor Li, nothing to do today; why not go listen to music again and again and again?" ===== CHAPTER 1658 =====
