"Gongsun Helan, and the general who guards the border, Yang Kunshang!" On the Taiji Hall, in front of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and in front of the Tang Emperor Tian Khan Li Shimin, Chu Yi stood up and spoke bluntly, without the slightest flinch and fear on his face, and in a sonorous voice, he sued Gongsun Helan and Yang Kunshang in one fell swoop.

"These two people ignored the original alliance between my Gaochang and the Celestial Empire, tied up my princess, invaded my border pass, if it weren't for my king's generosity, repeatedly forbearance and retreat, at this moment, your and my two countries, I'm afraid that the war has been going on for a long time, and the disputes are continuous," said Chu Yi took a step forward again, and said in a loud voice: "Yes, on this matter, the foreign minister is here to overpass, and on behalf of my king, I dare to ask the Heavenly Khan, I hope that the Heavenly Khan can give my king and give me an explanation for the people of Gaochang!" ”

"Oh? Is there such a thing? Squinting his eyes and looking down at Chu Yi, the expression on Li Shimin's face remained unchanged, since Chu Yi opened his mouth to talk about this matter, Li Shimin has already guessed the approximate one, Gongsun Helan, Yang Kunshang, one is Liu Yiyi's brother, the other is Liu Yiyi's brother, the two of them are at the border, and they did this thing without permission, if it is said that it has nothing to do with Liu Yiyi, I am afraid that not many people will believe it.

However, these two people are also a little bolder, just for a small steward in the Liu Mansion, they kidnapped the princess of a country, not counting, but they dared to send troops to deter without permission, put the court, the military regulations, the laws of the Tang Dynasty, and put him, the lord of a country, where is it?

That Gongsun Helan, it's okay, he has been a troublemaker since he was a child, when he was in Chang'an before, he didn't stay in the cell of the Criminal Department, and he was one of those powerful sons for a while, which one of them was not beaten by him? It's not surprising that kid is not honest and less peaceful.

However, how could Yang Kunshang mess around with him this time? Li Shimin frowned lightly, although Yang Kunshang is the son of Yang Bofang, and has some unclear relationship with the previous dynasty, but how to say, he is also a general who has been picked up by himself, for his character and temperament, Li Shimin thinks that he will not be wrong, steady, cautious, and rarely impulsive, if it is common sense, he will not follow the boy of Gongsun Helan so recklessly, otherwise, how could Li Shimin rest assured that such an important responsibility as guarding the border would be handed over to him?

Is it just for Yanagichi? Li Shimin didn't believe it.

"Cen Aiqing," his mind was racing, and Li Shimin turned his head lightly to look at His Highness's Zhongshu Ling Cen Wenwen, and asked him softly: "Have you received a report from the northwest in the past two days?" Do you know that General Yang sent troops to the border? ”

"Back to the emperor," Cen Wenwen bowed out of the column when he heard this, and bent down to reply to Li Shimin: "There have been a lot of reports from the northwest recently, but most of them are some boys who ask for money, and there is no request to send troops, as for General Yang Kunshang,"

After a pause, Cen Wenwen replied with a somewhat strange face: "In addition to the matter of asking for salary, it seems that there is also a report on the practice of military affairs, if Weichen remembers it well, the emperor agreed to it at that time." ”

"Oh?" After contemplating his eyebrows and thinking about it for a while, Li Shimin nodded lightly and said: "It seems that there is really such a thing, there has been no war at the border for a long time, and those soldiers guarding the border are a little lazy and relaxed. ”

As he spoke, Li Shimin turned his head again to look at Chu Yi on the side, and asked softly: "General Chu said that our dynasty sent troops to invade the border pass, maybe he is sure that the soldiers of our dynasty really entered the territory of your Gaochang and injured your Gaochang soldiers and civilians?" ”

Listening to Cen Wenwen mention that Yang Kunshang wanted to exercise the army before, Li Shimin already had a general understanding of this matter in his heart, invading the Gaochang border and provoking a war between the two countries is fake, and the exercises and military discipline are also mixed with a little water, Yang Kunshang's move is just to take advantage of the situation to coerce King Gaochang to release people.

Thinking of this, the suspicion that had just risen in Li Shimin's heart suddenly disappeared, for a country like Gaochang that has shown no subordination, Li Shimin doesn't mind that the generals at the border pass have any radical means, not to mention military deterrence, that is, Yang Kunshang really led people into the Gaochang realm and killed some people, what can he do?

As long as there is a suitable and reasonable reason, Li Shimin is not the kind of weak and incompetent, blindly seeking good, is a role that can be bullied, if someone or other countries show a little bad intentions towards him, he does not mind sending troops to fight and fight, this kind of thing, when the country was poor and the army was weak, Li Shimin was never afraid of anyone, and now the Tang Dynasty is rich and strong, and this Ming Jun is even more fearless.

To tell the truth, after so many years of peace, Li Shimin, the emperor who was born as a general, is really a little itchy.

"This ......" Hearing Li Shimin ask like this, Chu Yi's expression hesitated for the first time, to be honest, Gongsun Helan and Yang Kunshang sent troops, he just heard the secret agent named Zhao Du casually mentioned, and asked about the detailed information at that time, Zhao Du was also a little hesitant at that time, and he didn't know what to say, so for those Tang soldiers, whether they crossed the border and entered the ground of Gaochang was not clear to Chu Yi himself.

In this situation, if it had been changed before, Chu Yi would have become red-faced and red-eared, and he didn't know how to deal with it, but now, especially under the influence of the "Thick Black Book" given by Liu Yiyi for several days, Chu Yi's face was stunned without the slightest change, and the old god was still standing there on the ground, bowing cheekily and replying to Li Shimin: "As for whether your army has crossed the line and injured people, the foreign minister has said it and can't count, if Tian Khan wants to understand the actual situation at that time, he might as well send someone to investigate on the spot." ”

Without the slightest embarrassment, Chu Yi glanced up at Li Shimin, and added another sentence behind him without hurrying, saying: "Come to think of it, if your army does not sneak across at the border, my King Gaochang will definitely not make trouble unreasonably and defile the two armies of Gongsun Helan and Yang Kunshang." ”

"Heh...," Li Shimin was so angry by Chu Yi's rogue cleverness, this kind of pushing, six, five and sleek way of dealing with life, where could a general who was known for his rudeness be able to do? This kid is a talent!

After looking down at Chu Yi deeply, Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "That is the case, then according to what General Chu said, I will send someone to the northwest to investigate, if Yang Kunshang and Gongsun Helan and them do have the Gaochang border and disable the Gaochang army and people, I will not spare it, and I will also give a reasonable explanation to the Gaochang monarchs." ”

"However," while Chu Yi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he listened to Li Shimin's words, and Ji'er said: "Before this matter is still investigated and Qingming, for the friendship between the Tang Dynasty and Gaochang, General Chu will still live in the post house temporarily." ”

"Huh? Heavenly Khan Shengming, the foreign ministers obey the order! The expression on his face paused, Chu Yi smiled bitterly and replied lightly, before he spoke out about this matter, he had already expected that this trip to Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty, if he wanted to go back safely, I am afraid it would be a little difficult.

However, if he can ask for the help of that Mr. Liu, Chu Yi's thoughts can't help but drift to Liu Yiyi's body again, if he is willing to help again, he should still have such a glimmer of opportunity, but the steward of their Liu Mansion has left Gaochang safely three days ago, will that Mr. Liu help him get through this level again?

"In addition to this invasion of the border, there is also the matter of my Gaochang Princess Jinye being openly kidnapped by Gongsun Helan, I hope that the Khan can give my king an explanation." Since the purpose of his trip was not to curry favor, Chu Yi didn't care about offending some officials and getting into more trouble.

Therefore, the previous accusation against Gongsun Helan and Yang Kunshang's private soldiers had just come to an end, and he unhurriedly turned over the matter of Gongsun Helan's kidnapping of the princess again, and made a look of not reluctantly, and he had to ask the Tang Emperor for an explanation.

"Well, this is not a big deal," Li Shimin's expression on his face remained unchanged, and he said indifferently: "If it is really Gongsun Helan's kid, I can ensure that Princess Jin Ye is safe, General Chu can rest assured, as for Gongsun Helan's guilt, let's discuss it after verification, now there is no evidence, and when it comes to speaking, it is really a bit empty." ”

Although he knows that what Chu Yi said is not a lie, and things like kidnapping and beating the princess and prince of another country, he really has a bit of Gongsun Helan's bastard boy's style of doing things, but after all, Gongsun Helan is the general of his own family, and his actions, in Li Shimin's opinion, still have a little bit of refreshment, although he can't be praised clearly, but no matter what, he can't give him too much responsibility, in front of these foreigners, lost his face as a towering Tang Dynasty.

Of course, there is also some meaning of compensating Liu Yiyi's favor, after all, people have helped themselves solve a lot of trouble before, although they have given a lot of rewards before, but there are some things that can not be repaid by those simple material rewards, so when dealing with Gongsun Helan, the righteous brother of Liu Yiyi, Li Shimin will inevitably be biased in his heart.

"Speaking of which, I also remembered some incidents, and they were also about this bondage." Glancing down at Chu Yi, Li Shimin said softly: "Some time ago, I also heard a report from someone that it was in the Gaochang realm, and someone actually tied up some of my subjects who went to the Tang Dynasty for no reason, I don't know what General Chu's explanation is?" ”
