The night of melee ended. When the dawn came, the grass where the banquet was feasting yesterday was already messy, and corpses and various instruments were burning in the war. In the Shangzhan not far away, the battle had no intention of stopping. It was Sengge's two sons struggling to attack the Shangzhan and avenge their father.

Anutana walked on the battlefield and her whole body lost her expression. A melee last night captured her peaceful life. Now, her family is attacking her own mother...

"Didn't I say that you can rest in the tent? Why did you come here?" Galdan appeared beside Anutana and pulled her out of her flesh and blood.

"Where is Sengge, where is the body of Khan?" Anutana asked holding Galdan's arm.

Galdan pointed to the battlefield in the distance. In the Junggar battle formation, a group of white camels and war horses were the most conspicuous. Sengge's body was on the wooden stand there. After raiding the banquet place last night and forcing Chechnya and others to retreat to Shangzhan, Galdan did not take over the attack on Shangzhan, but spoke on behalf of the Junggar nobles and demanded that Sengge's descendants avenge the Khan. Whoever could break through Shangzhan and get the heads of a group of traitors could become the next Khan. Obviously, this was the idea of ​​mutual consumption, and it worked especially when Senggar had just died.

Anutana walked straight towards the pile of white animals, and Galdan grabbed her: "Anu, don't go. Sengge died miserably. His face was full of pain and his eyes were not closed. Ce Wang and Ce Ling tried to cover his face with sheepskin several times, but they were not successful. According to Buddhist saying, this is the unjust soul that will not disperse. If you go, he may seduce your soul. Anu, don't go."

"I killed the Khan." Anutana squatted on the ground and hugged her head and cried.

"But you don't have to blame yourself. At the banquet, Sengge thought that Chechen brother's glass of wine was poisonous and asked you to drink it. It was because he wanted to give you a sorry for you, and when I went to drink it, he didn't stop it. It was his fault. It was too cold-blooded!" Galdan persuaded carefully.

Anutana was quiet for a while, and looked up and said, "It's you, everything is your fault. If you don't come back, this won't happen."

Galdan smiled and said, "Last night, Dashan drank two glasses of wine you poured. I want to know, if it was the first glass, you were poisoned or just the second glass. If it was the first glass, you were my accomplice, but who can tell it clearly? After all, the wine pot is in your hands."

After hearing this, Anutana smiled sadly: "Yes, we should all die, we should all die."

Galdan shook his head: "Two damn people should live well. Things have happened. Anu, we should continue. The next step is to help me seize the Khan throne, at least... to at least get a part of my sect."

Anutana smiled: "Although Ce Wang and Ce Ling are both adults, they cannot convince the public. Now they are temporarily united for revenge. After the end, there will be a civil war. You will definitely gain benefits from it. As for the Khan position, hum, it is not something I can decide. It depends on your ability. If Ce Wang and Ce Ling are both dead, you can get recognition from the empire. With the two people in Tibet, you may be able to firmly hold the position of Khan, but do you think the Han emperor who will kill you at all costs will recognize you?"

Galdan shook his head, but smiled: "That's a year later or even longer. I only look at the front of me. Your proposal is good. Anu, I will kill Ce Ling and Ce Wang next. Thank you for your reminder."

"You! I didn't give you any advice!" Anutana said angrily.

Galdan shrugged: "Who cares?"

In the Yili Shopping Store, Chechen Taiji and other noble chiefs sat in the main hall to discuss. The battle overnight had already made them feel the correctness of retreating into the Shopping Store. The Shopping Store did consider military functions. The dozens of employees in the Shopping Store were also good players, and the Taijis' men did not lack firearms. So when the morning arrived, everyone could sit around to enjoy chicken, lamb soup and dry cakes. In the sound of chewing, the elderly Orchitu took the lead and said: "We have to think of a way. There are too many people in the Shopping Store, more than 600, and there are many horses. Even if we kill horses and eat meat, we can't last forty days. There are so many Junggar cavalry, but we are all here. Our tribe may be defeated by each one."

Zhuotbathur laughed: "I think this place is good. There are things to eat, drink and drink. It is so strong that the Junggars can't rush in. Ce Wang Celing and both fools covet the Khan position. After ten or eight days of fighting, they were unwilling to hurt them again. Perhaps they started to do it themselves for the position of the Khan position!"

Chechnya Taiji said coldly: "But there is also a possibility that a hero appeared in the tribe, which has won everyone's recognition and become the new Khan King!"

"Oh, you said Ce Ling or Ce Wang. Ce Ling is a reckless man. His head doesn't have to be smart. As for Ce Wang, although he is sinister, he is narrow-minded and many generals don't accept him! The rest of the guys are children..." Zhuotbabathur said with a laugh, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Are you talking about our brother Galdan?"

Chechen Taiji focused on the key point: "Don't you find it strange? We people will not kill the Khan, because there is no benefit. Ce Wang and Ce Ling are not present. Even if they want to kill us, wouldn't it be better to poison us to death? Only Galdan, who was there last night and left halfway. And don't you think, as the Khan's minister, he said too much to the Khan's concubine, and that pot of wine was poured by the concubine one by one."

"I think Chechen Taiji is right, and I also find it strange. Since King Cheng set the Tianshan Mountains, the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains have been peaceful for ten years. Why did such a big thing happen to Galdan when he came back? This matter must have something to do with him!" Orchitu cursed.

"Dear Taiji, the key now lies in what we should do!" a little sweat reminded.

Chechen Taiji said: "We are here, and the initiative is in the hands of people outside, and our tribe is in danger. If we can leave, then Cewang and Celing will fight for the Khan throne, and the initiative is in ours, so we have to find a way to leave."

"Yes, we must leave. You guys, you don't know our brother Galdan. Among all the brothers, he is the smartest one! I dare not bet on his life on his failure. We must leave this dangerous place." Zhuotbabatul said without hesitation, waving his fists.

The crowd nodded one after another, but there was no good idea. After a while, everyone looked at Chechen Taiji at the same time. After all, he was the most wisest among the people, and he deserved the name of Chechen. He felt everyone's expectations. Chechen Taiji did not speak, but looked straight at Orchitu. When someone asked him something, he didn't say anything. He kept watching it. The nobles thought he had a deep meaning. After thinking about it carefully, it was indeed interesting.

"Orzitu Khan, Sengge was poisoned to death yesterday. The most likely thing is that your granddaughter Anutana did it. Do you know?" asked Zhuotbabatu.

When Orchitu saw this posture, he sneered, pressed his hand on the handle of the knife, and said, "Don't think I don't know what you are thinking about. I want to throw me out as a scapegoat. You don't have the ability to do this. Besides, if I take the blame for the perpetrator, will the Junggars spare you? Don't dream. Even if Ce Ling is the fool, he will willingly accept your words, and then take advantage of your loss of vigilance and beat you all in one go!"

As soon as these words were said, the noble chiefs looked shaking and thought it made sense. If they tied up Orchitu to be a scapegoat, they would definitely be willing to do it, but they were afraid that they would fall into the enemy's trick.

Seeing that everyone was no longer thinking about being harsh, Orchitu cursed: "Chechen Taiji, you bastard, stop playing tricks anymore. Just let go if you have something to say or fart."

Chechen Taiji spread his hands: "I'm wronged, I didn't say anything, Orchitu Khan, I see you, I feel that everyone's life is on you, and I didn't say that you will be a scapegoat."

"What do you think?" Orchitu asked.

Chechnya said: "I mean using counter-espionage. As Anutana's grandfather, you can write letters to your granddaughter and let her save your life. After all, according to the tradition passed down since the time of Genghis Khan, Autana, as the widow of Sengge, will she marry the next great khan, right?"

"Then what?"

Chechen Taiji said: "You can say in the letter that the man who is willing to support Anutana's choice to inherit the Khan throne of Sengge, just let you go, and she will definitely reply to you. No matter whether she chooses Celing, Cewang or Galdan, as long as she gives the reply to someone who does not choose, this person will definitely rebel. The person who chooses Anutana will also seek our support to inherit the Khan throne. The tribes left by Sengge will be divided. As long as they are not united, how can they do to us?"

Orchitu thought for a while and asked, "Your plan is not very clever. If the man chosen by Anu has been seen through, I think she will probably choose Galdan, and Galdan is a smart person."

Chechen Taiji smiled and said indifferently, "So what? If she doesn't reply, you just write a few more letters and hand them over to Cewang and Celing. As the leader of the Weila Alliance, tell them that Sengge is not the victim of everyone. You can convene various Weila tribes, especially the Heshuotte tribes in Tibet, to preside over justice, find the murderer, and convene the Huliltai Conference, recommend the new Khan of Junggar, and ask the empire to arbitrate. And in the letter, we will support you, and you will support your own granddaughter Anutana."

"Are you going to throw my pearl in my hand as a bone to those hungry wolves?" Orchitu asked.

"Hmph, your pearl in your hand. If she still misses you, grandfather, she should have told you about the poisoning early last night, and it would not have caused you to fall into such a situation!" Zhuotbabatul said angrily.

As Orchitu thought, Galdan was a smart man. After seeing the letter from the Yili Shangzhan in Anutana, he immediately understood the key to this plan. In other words, it was a dignified plot. At this time, it was more tempting than revenge and could calm the attacker. The only thing that could calm the attacker was the inheritance of the Khan throne. In the tradition of the Junggar, the inheritance of the Khan throne, Chechnya and Zhuotbabatu, had sufficient voice, and Orchitu, the leader of the Guillat.

Galdan knew very well that he would be defeated if he hesitated. He immediately gathered his subordinates who were loyal to him, abandoned everything that was not conducive to the march, gathered more than a thousand people, left the old Junggar land in the Yili River Valley, and moved westward. What Galdan did not expect was that Anutana actually followed his daughter Minmin and stood firmly beside him.

"Why follow me?" Galdan asked, looking at Anutana.

Anutana said lightly: "For survival, I was the one who poisoned Sengge. Although no one had evidence, just guessing was enough. This time my grandfather betrayed me, and no one in this land could protect me. Whoever inherited the Khan position or intended the Khan position would list me as the murderer. And you won't, Galdan."

"Oh, just because I know your secret?" Galdan smiled.

Anutana shook her head: "No, it's because you are the one who was hunted by the Empire. The Khan of Junggar needs to be recognized by the Empire. My murderer is the confession of the next Khan, but you can't do it. If you kill me, the Empire will still kill you. If you keep me, it will be of some use."

Galdan nodded: "Maybe I should kill you too. I think there will be a story spreading around the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains soon. Galdan and Anutana, the adulterer, was known to Sengge, and they escaped after poisoning and assassination. If I accept you, it is equivalent to giving people the credentials to believe, which is not conducive to my career."

Anutana said, "I have considered this point. No one cares about how Sengge died and why. Now they will put the blame on you and me, but in the future, if Sengge dies, the land will fall into chaos. The Junggar tribes are divided and attacking each other. This is beneficial to the Han people. The Han people should be happy to see it. When the chaos reaches a certain level, new rumors will overshadow the original rumors. People will be happy to believe that it was the empire who operated Sengge's death......"

Galdan pinched Anutana's chin: "You are really smart, and this is what I'm about to do."

Anutana nodded: "Now, can you take me away?"

Galdan smiled and said, "Of course, Anutana, from now on, you are my wife."

Anutana was not surprised and asked, "Where are we going?"
