Chapter 268: The Death of the Little Khan of Tuli (1)
Li Jiancheng returned to his prince's East Palace from the palace, and immediately brought Xu Jingzong and Wei Zheng - Huang Wenqing was in charge of the operation of the snow sugar workshop in Shiyan, and Di Zhixun was still in Turk and did not come back, so only Xu Jingzong and Wei Zheng were left among the four major advisers.
"Lord Xu, Ren Jieqing performed very well this time, first contacted Ashnasmo Jiabi Special Service in the Turks, used Ashnasmo Jiabi Special Service to first say about the Wind Guardian Guard in front of Lingli Khan, and then used the fear in Lingli Khan's heart to instigate and aggravate their contradictions, and also found out that the Khitan, Yao, Xue Yantuo, Xi, Xia and other tribes under the Tuli Little Khan have long been dissatisfied with the Turkic Little Khan, and use their spears to attack their shields, which is amazing! And after this internal strife, the tribes of the Khitan, Jin, Xueyantuo, Xi, and Xia under the little Turki Khan have strengthened their strength, and they are slowly not very obedient to the Turki Khan, and although the Lingli Khan sent troops to get rid of the trouble, the overall strength of the eastern Turks has weakened, which is really gratifying! ”
"This is all His Royal Highness the Prince's discernment, if it weren't for His Royal Highness the Prince's seeing that Di Renjie's child is smart and beautiful, he will become a great tool, and now Renjie's child can have such an achievement, which is also the success of His Royal Highness the Prince." Xu Jingzong is good at everything, but he likes flattery, but Li Jiancheng has been on the throne for a long time, and sometimes he needs the flattery of others as a superior, but Li Jiancheng himself also has his own scale, is it not to look at Wei Zheng - in Li Jiancheng's memory, there will always be Tang Taizong Li Shimin's evaluation of Wei Zheng: you can straighten your clothes with a bronze mirror, use ancient history as a mirror, you can know the rise and fall, and use people as a mirror, you can see the gains and losses. I often use this way to prevent myself from making mistakes, but now that Wei Zheng has passed away, I am missing a mirror. Although the current Wei Zheng is not as chattering as in later generations, Li Jiancheng does not want the historians of the Song and Ming dynasties to research in the history books, and write down some future Tang Dynasty second emperor Li Jiancheng created the Tang Dynasty after ascending the throne, because of Wei Zheng's hard advice, and after Wei Zheng's death, Li Jiancheng deliberately fabricated charges and pushed Wei Zheng's tombstone, regretted marrying Wei Zheng, and dissolved the marriage contract with Wei Zheng's son. After the defeat of the expedition to Liaodong, he recalled the benefits of Wei Zheng and sacrificed Wei Zheng with the gift of a young prison, but the matter has been done, how to redeem it? Although these are all done by Li Shimin, Li Jiancheng is unwilling to have this kind of historical stain on himself. Li Jiancheng hopes to write in the history books in the future: Wei Zheng and Li Jiancheng are suitable for the monarch and ministers, Wei Zheng bows to the essence of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, and after death, Li Jiancheng repays Wei Zheng and personally marries Wei Zheng, Yang Yan has given birth to a little princess for Li Jiancheng, Li Jiancheng is ready to marry Wei Zheng, Wei Zheng's eldest son Wei Shuyu Li Jiancheng has seen it, it is a very smart one, Li Jiancheng is ready to wait for two years, and put Wei Shuyu in the youth barracks under Xue Rengui- Li Jiancheng modeled on the method of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to form Yulinwei to create a juvenile barracks, and included the children of the prince's subordinate officials, on the one hand, as a model, for example, Xu Jingzong's eldest son Xu Ang, Li Gang's two sons Li Shaozhi and Li Liyan, Wang Gui's sons Wang Chongji, Wang Jingzhi, Yu Zhining's sons Yu Lizheng and Yu Shenyan have all entered the juvenile barracks for cultural and martial arts training, on the one hand, it is to prepare for the future military academy, and the deeper meaning is that these people are taken hostage, and it is also to protect them.
"Alright. Jing Zongqing, don't be a sycophant, the overall strength of the Eastern Turks has weakened, but the overall strength still can't be booed, and this Jieli Khan took out the puppet of Yang Zhengdao again, and played the banner of recovering the Great Sui, and now Yang Zhengdao has taken over all the territory of Tuli, and I heard that Liu Wuzhou of Mayi has taken Dingxiang and Yang Zhengdao as the new capital. This palace thinks that this person will also be one of the great disasters in the future. ”
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is prepared for danger in times of peace, and Weichen congratulates His Royal Highness the Prince." Wei Zheng encouraged Li Jiancheng, but Li Jiancheng also knew that this was Wei Zheng's retreat, and hoped that he would not be complacent. Li Jiancheng nodded:
"This palace has brought Jing Zongqing and Xuan Chengqing here this time, and there is an important matter to discuss with you." Xu Jingzong and Wei Zheng saw Li Jiancheng's solemn expression, and immediately said:
"Please command His Royal Highness the Prince!"
"Now that the little Turki Khan has been defeated and expelled in the Turkic infighting, he is begging my court to take him in, and my father has agreed to welcome him into Chang'an, but the palace does not want to see him in Chang'an again, what can you do to help this king get rid of this scourge." Both Xu Jingzong and Wei Zheng fell into deep thought. Li Jiancheng didn't want the little Turki Khan to live, of course, he had a reason - the Turki little khan colluded with Li Shimin to rob the green salt, and finally collapsed the forces of the turian little khan under the planning of Di Zhixun and Di Renjie's father and son, who knew that the turian little khan did not die, but took refuge in it, and if the big bad wolf was released back to the grassland in the future, it is difficult to guarantee that the turian little khan will not take revenge.
"Dare to ask Your Highness, do you want the little Khan of Tuli to die outside, or do you want to dye the little Khan of Tuli to die inside Chang'an City." Wei Zheng first asked Li Jiancheng, and Xu Jingzong was also looking forward to it. Li Jiancheng was silent for a moment:
"The main palace is to let the little Khan who wants to Tuli die in Chang'an City, preferably in the mansion of Li Shimin, the king of Qin."
The little Khan of Tuli came to Chang'an under the escort of the officials of the Litang border pass.
"It's really like a shuttle of time, life is impermanent, but one day, Ben Khan may come to Chang'an again, and sit in which position of Yang Guang, the original Khan of the day!" Tuli Little Khan said to himself in his heart, when Tuli Little Khan came to Taiji Palace, Li Yuan's personal eunuch Wanyue Gonggong came to the door of the palace:
"The emperor announced, the former Eastern Turkic Turkic Tirli Little Khan - Ashinash Bobi entered the palace." Under the leadership of the father-in-law of the waning moon, Ashinash bowed down and humbly walked into the Xuanzheng Hall of Taiji Palace:
"Minister, Ashinash, see His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, I wish His Majesty the Emperor long live, long live, long live!" Hearing Ashinash's proficient Chinese, as well as his proficient Han etiquette, as well as his humble attitude, Li Yuan's heart felt extremely surprised and vain.
"Lord Ashinash, please get up quickly, flat!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Ashinash stood up after hearing Li Yuan's order, but his body was still bowed. and saluted the crown prince Li Jiancheng and the king of Qin Li Shimin:
"Ahh Hello, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! Hello, His Royal Highness King Qin! "The crown prince Li Jiancheng and the king of Qin, Li Shimin, are both staring at Ashinash. What Li Jiancheng thought in his heart was:
"This person knows how to show weakness immediately when he has lost power, and puts on a look of sincere fear, but this palace will not help you succeed, just rely on your Ashinash bowl to help Li Shimin rob a piece of green salt, you Ashinash bowl will have to die ten thousand times." What Li Shimin thought in his heart was:
"This king must hold him, this person knows too many secrets of this king, but now he is still useful, the Turkic cavalry is famous all over the world, the northern plains of the Central Plains are vast, and only cavalry can use it. In the future, when Dou Jiande and Liu Wuzhou were pacified, the tactical tactics of the Turkic cavalry would definitely be useful. Li Yuan didn't pay attention to the little Jiujiu in Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin's hearts, after Li Yuan's vanity was satisfied, he glanced at the Duke of the Remnant Moon beside him, and the Duke of the Remnant Moon nodded:
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said, since Pangu opened the world, Nuwa created people, Fuxi protectors, three emperors and five emperors, children and grandchildren, Xia Shang two weeks, time and war, five chaotic China, my Chinese descendants are fragmented, brothers are separated, flesh and blood fight, but the ancient saying has clouds, a long time must be together, a long time must be divided, now there is a scattered son of Ashinash Bobi believes in my Central Plains culture, willing to enter the customs, today awarded Ashinash Bobi official right guard general, knighted Beiping County King, 700 households." After hearing Li Yuan's holy decree, Ashinash Bobi immediately thanked him and said:
"Minister, the general of the right guard, the king of Beiping County, Ashinash, thank the lord Longen! Long live my emperor, long live, long live! Li Yuan ordered:
"The king of Beiping County, please get up, come here! In order to welcome the arrival of the king of Beiping County, a banquet was held in the Xuanzheng Palace, and singing and dancing waited. Father-in-law of the waning moon agreed:
"There is a decree in the saint, set up a banquet in the Xuanzheng Palace, and wait for singing and dancing." With Li Yuan's holy decree, the court musicians played the court music, and in the elegant music, two teams of dancing girls dressed in pale yellow came to the middle of the Xuanzheng Hall and danced. The elegant music sets off the graceful body of the dancing girl, making it difficult to see the music culture of Beiping County, Ashinash Bobi, who has been in the north for a long time. And once Ashinash Bobi left the danger of being chased and killed by the Khan of Lingli, and encountered Li Yuan's ceremonial etiquette towards him, the lustful nature in his heart slowly began to rise again. Ashinash stood up:
"Your Majesty, Wechen has lived in the north for a long time, and I have never seen the grand scenery of the Central Plains, please forgive Your Majesty for the crime of ignorance of etiquette! Permission was given to the ministers to come forward and watch the dance. Ashinash's almost rude behavior sparked a discussion among the ministers of Li Tang who were present:
"Humph! What a Northland barbarian, how can he be so rude! ”
"Ugh! Be quiet, it's a big day. ”
"What joy? It's just a lost dog. It's so grand. ”
"Ugh! Be quiet, don't let the emperor hear it! ”…… The discussions of the Li Tang clan and the hundred officials of the imperial court who were present to accompany them naturally could not hide from Li Yuan's eyes and ears. However, Li Yuan didn't care, and said to Ashinash Bobi with a smile:
"The king of Beiping County has lived in the north for a long time, and he doesn't know the prosperity of the Central Plains, not to mention the beauty of the present, man! Some gaffes are also normal, the king of Beiping County does not need to be formal, please step forward and watch the dance! When Ashinash heard this, he was overjoyed.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" After thanking him, Ashinash stepped forward, with an obscene look in his eyes, believing that if it weren't for being in Li Tang's Xuanzheng Palace, he would definitely meet those dancing girls shirtless. And because of Ashinash's actions, Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin had their own plans in their hearts.
