177, the mastermind behind the scenes
Soon, Ash Nayun also came to Jingwen and them, and when he saw the corpses all over the ground, he immediately frowned.
"What's going on?" Ashina Yun asked Du Gen.
Lu Dugen quickly replied to what happened just now, and Ash Nayun didn't expect that someone would actually intercept and kill the envoys of the Tang Dynasty. Fortunately, he sent a guard to answer it, otherwise I am afraid that Jingwen and they will really be intercepted and killed. Fortunately, there is no problem now, otherwise I'm afraid things would have been a big deal!
"Princess Yun, I almost didn't see you!" Jingwen said with a pitiful look.
Ash Nayun saw Jingwen, and also saw the three beauties beside Jingwen, and immediately said: "It seems that even if you die this time, you are a merry ghost!" ”
"Hahahaha, what I regret the most is that I didn't have a love affair with you, Princess Yun." Jingwen immediately opened his mouth and said teasingly.
And that Lu Dugen didn't expect that this Turkic envoy actually knew Princess Ashinayun in advance, and this Turkic envoy dared to tease the princess. However, as a person around the "leader", of course I know that I can't do things for the leader with eyes and ears, so he looks like I don't see it.
"Jingwen, these people who came to intercept and kill should not be our Khan's people, they just want to intercept and kill you and provoke the war between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks." Ashina Yun said.
Ash Nayun was also afraid that Jingwen would misunderstand, because this time it was the envoy group who intercepted and killed the Tang Dynasty, and the matter was not so easy to solve. And although Jingwen has a friendship with Ashinayun, but now Jingwen is an envoy, if he misunderstands that it was sent by the Turkic Khan. That thing is very strict.
And Jingwen immediately asked curiously: "I can see, these guys should not be sent by the Turkic Jieli Khan." But who sent them? ”
Ash Nayun also immediately expressed his position and said, "Jingwen Yushi." I'll send someone to investigate right away and promise to give you a satisfactory answer! ”
The Turkic side has the obligation to investigate this matter clearly, because the envoys cannot be intercepted and killed in an unexplained manner, so it is natural to investigate clearly. When the time comes, I will also give Datang an explanation. Although they were not able to intercept and kill, after all, they had intercepted and killed, and the matter was not so easy to expose. Therefore, it is necessary to find out the person who instructed it, so that the Tang Dynasty knows that the Turks have no intention of provoking a war.
And Ashinayun went on to say: "We Turks are now trying to solve internal problems. And not a foreign war. We, Jieli Khan, have also already ordered not to provoke too much on the border, so it is impossible to intercept and kill the Tang envoys. ”
At present, there are many internal problems of the Turks, the first of which is to solve the rebellion of Xue Yantuo. If Xue Yantuo's rebellion is not resolved, it will be like a nail piercing the Turkic ass, ready to threaten Chrysanthemum at any time. And if you attack Datang at this time, then I am afraid that Datang and Xue Yantuo will make the Turks suffer from both sides.
The ancients said that if you are outside, you must first settle inside, and if you are not at peace inside. Then where is the opportunity to attack foreign countries! The Turks will not take the initiative to provoke a war in a short period of time, and will take the initiative to refrain from some provocations on the border.
"You mean to say that there will be no war between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks?" Jingwen asked.
Ashina Yun didn't give an absolute answer, but just said, "At least for a short time." We will not take the initiative to provoke wars! ”
And Jingwen also continued: "Now our envoys from the Tang Dynasty have arrived in the territory of the Turks, and strictly speaking, they accept the protection of the Turks. But if someone came to intercept and kill, it would naturally be to put the hat of the interception envoy on the Turks. And. Judging by their habits and language, they are all people from within the Turks. Did they leave any marks on their soldiers? ”
"Nope. They were obviously prepared, and they lost all the tribal marks on their bodies! He said.
"That's going to be hard! There are no markers. Then I'm afraid we won't be able to investigate! Ashina Yun said with a headache.
The Turks were a tribal federation system, not a strict household registration system like the Central Plains. It is very difficult for the Turks to find specific individuals. He is not like a Han Chinese, he can find out one after another by following the household registration and even related relatives. However, the Turkic relations were severed, and he was actually just a tribe, and then the alliance elected the khan. The Khan had limited influence over the tribes within the Turks, so it was very difficult to investigate a tribe. What's more, now they can't even find out which tribe it is, where do they have a clue?
But Jingwen said: "According to the speculation of who benefits the most and who is the biggest suspect, then we must first find out who benefits the most in the case of a large-scale war between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks?" You Turks can follow this route to find it! ”
When Ash Nayun heard this, Song Ran was taken aback and muttered, "Could it be her!" ”
"Who is it?" Jingwen asked immediately.
Ashina Yun didn't answer, but just said: "You don't have to worry about it, our Turks will give you an answer to this matter!" ”
Ash Nayun didn't seem to say anything, but replied vaguely. But Jingwen obviously heard the trap in this sentence, that is, to give Jingwen an answer, but this "answer" may not be able to satisfy Jingwen and Datang. Generally speaking, there are two kinds of answers in diplomatic situations, one is a satisfactory answer, and the other is just the word "answer". The satisfactory answer is that the other party must be sincere and really give in. But if it's just the word "answer", then I'm afraid the other party's attitude towards handling things is not very good, and it is obvious that they don't really have to deal with it seriously. Perhaps, when the time comes, everyone can just prevaricate with two reasons.
And Jingwen saw Ash Nayun actually say this, and immediately realized that this time I am afraid that the mastermind behind the scenes is not simple! Anyway, Jingwen and they were not intercepted and killed this time, and when the time comes, the Turks will find two "scapegoats" at will, and then pay some convulsion fees, and it will be solved. However, the Tang Dynasty was not satisfied, so it was not within the scope of Turkic consideration, after all, the envoys did not really die.
And Jingwen immediately turned back to Liu Qing and said, "I'm going this time, I'm afraid it will be dangerous!" Are you sure you want to follow us? ”
Liu Qing said firmly: "I want to follow you!" Even if we die, we will die together! ”
And the other two beauties didn't say anything, they just nodded, obviously unwilling to go back. And Jingwen naturally won't say anything, because this is their choice. (To be continued......)
