The previous document said that Baiyun Hill was ordered to go to Lingwu to seek peace. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThis peace talk is actually that everyone doesn't want to fight, or they don't want to fight for the time being. At this time, it is necessary to negotiate, calm down, fight with each other, and finally sign a contract or something.

Like the Turks, Li Tang was also the new emperor who ascended the throne, and he had more things to be busy with and had no time to continue fighting. Since both sides have this kind of mind, it will be very easy to do. Baiyun Hill, on behalf of the Baimei Khan, put forward some conditions, and the Tang Dynasty also sent the Ministry of Rites to do the same thing. Li Heng felt that it was okay and retained the status of the suzerainty of the Tang Dynasty, so he decided to accept the credentials of the Baimei Khan. In return, Li Heng decided to send the Ministry of Rites Shangshu to canonize the Baimei Khan on his behalf. It means that King Baimei, you have sat on the throne of the Khan, and you have also submitted your credentials to me, intending to continue to submit to the Li Tang Dynasty. For the sake of your sincerity, I will not pursue the past events, and in return for your loyalty, I will officially appoint you as Turkic Khan.

So, under the protection of 50,000 imperial forest troops, with Li Heng's letter of appointment, accompanied by Baiyun Hill, the Ministry of Rites rushed to the Turkic royal court. When he arrived in Jiuyuan City, he took Lou Fan with him by the way, and Wen Xin also disguised himself as a woman and mixed in the team. Hua Wenxiu went home alone to report the news, and there was nothing to do all the way.

As for the canonization, we won't say much about it, anyway, everyone is very happy. After reading the decree of the appointment, the Scholar of the Ministry of Rites placed the Turkic crown on the head of the White-eyed Khan again. This is considered the completion of the canonization gift.

The Turkic white-eyed Khan was overjoyed and entertained everyone with a banquet. After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu said to the Baimei Khan: "This is General Lou Fan of my Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, and he is here to watch the ceremony on behalf of the front-line soldiers this time." ”

The white-eyed khan smiled and said to Hong Kui: "Strategist, our old opponent is here. Give Ben Khan a toast. "Indeed, this Lou Fan and the Turkic army continue to fight fiercely, both sides have their own victories and defeats, and now that the war on the Western Front has subsided, as the main general, he should come to watch the ceremony. Of course, you don't think that this white-eyed khan is out of etiquette to let the military advisor toast.

In fact, not only the white-eyed Khan and Hong Kui, but even the fierce generals like Samurton and You Metrochong also respected Lou Fan very much, because Lou Fan defeated them. They admire it from the bottom of their hearts. As for whether you will hold grudges, then you will be careful. This group of people are all proud of the sky, how can they hold revenge because of the casualties on the battlefield. When each is his master, he has to fight each other. Now that the two countries have stopped fighting and made peace, let go of the grievances on the battlefield. I was not convinced, and when we met on the battlefield in the coming days, we would just fight again.

So this Lou Fan was not polite and returned a few glasses. In this way, the people became more or less close. Lou Fan said to the Baimei Khan: "May I ask the Great Khan, General Geng Biao, the governor of the Anxi Protectorate, who unfortunately died in his life. Now that the war has subsided, can the Great Khan let us bring the general's dead body back to his homeland for burial?" Hong Kui hurriedly took over the conversation and said: "General Bulao is worried, General Geng Biao is also a famous general, and he is respected by my Turks. Although unfortunately martyred, our Turks were still well buried, and the Khan also sent soldiers to guard them day and night. Lou Fan said: "Thank you Khan." ”

The secretary of the Ministry of Rites here was worried that someone would make other requests, so he hurriedly said: "Come, everyone raise a glass and wish our two countries eternal friendship!" Everyone responded, and the banquet immediately entered a climax.

The next day, General Hong Kui rushed to the cemetery of General Geng Biao with Lou Fan, representatives of the Tang Dynasty Military Department, officials of the Criminal Department and Dali Temple, and other figures, under the protection of You Metrochong.

The Turks are located in the Western Regions, and the ritual system is different from that of the Central Plains since ancient times, and the funeral customs are not the usual burials of the Han people. The Ministry of Rites Shangshu was already proficient in the etiquette systems of various countries, and it was expected that General Geng Biao might not be buried. If so, where did the tomb come from, let alone return to the homeland. Helplessly, these people from the Criminal Department of the Central Military Department of the DPRK Central Military Department could listen to them, so they had to send someone over.

Yesterday, I heard Hong Kui's words and knew that Geng Biao's body was still there, and I was also relieved. He and the white-browed khan will continue to discuss the aftermath, such as the return of the captives and the re-investigation of the demarcation line. This allows Lou Fan to replace himself.

After walking for a long time, they saw from afar that there was a tomb on top of the post. Presumably that is the grave of General Geng Biao. The Turks did not have the custom of burial, and this tomb was very simple, and when you came to see it, it looked like a pile of rubble. Decades later, where will anyone remember that this is the burial place of the famous General Geng Biao.

Lou Fan and the others stood by and watched. Funeral experts from both sides have already held a ceremony to break the ground and open the coffin with their respective customs. After the ceremony, more than a dozen sergeants began to break ground. Soon, General Geng Biao's coffin was hoisted. The army wiped the soil, and the officials of Dali Temple recognized that this coffin was a fine golden silk nanmu!

The people then set up tents and carried the coffin in. The master of opening the coffin of Dali Temple quickly opened, and looked at the coffin carefully, it turned out to be made of the whole golden silk nanmu, and its production process was extremely exquisite. Even the wealthy families of the Central Plains may not be able to obtain such a huge golden silk nanmu.

Before everyone could look at the coffin that was of sufficient specifications, they suddenly heard a strange saying: "This corpse is not rotten!" The official of Dali Temple hurriedly said: "Quickly check the wound on the general's body, what is the fatal wound?" The inspection is also very careful. After a long time, he still shook his head. The leading Dali Temple official said: "Seal the coffin and take it back." ”

Although Lou Fan is not a prisoner here, he also knows that if Dan Fan will die on the battlefield, he will definitely be injured. Loulan Villa was originally from the rivers and lakes, Lou Fan thought about it, and quietly said to Wen Xin: "Sister Xin, the general died of poisoning?"

Wen Xin was originally a senior disciple of Liu Ruyan in Songhetang, and he was naturally good at medicine, although he didn't know how to do an autopsy, but he could still judge the cause of death. It's just that this General Geng Biao was born in the army and was martyred before the battle, how could he not be injured. If this is really the case, then there is only one possibility, poisoning!

Wen Xin thought for a while and said, "Brother Fan, the general did die of poisoning. I don't see any signs of poisoning on the corpse, presumably not through the skin. It's unbelievable!"

During this time, Lou Fan and Wen Xin have been together, and they also know Wen Xin's abilities very well. I think that although Songhetang is famous for its medical skills, in fact, the most important thing for Songhetang is the study of poisons. Whether it is poison or detoxification, it is unique in the world!
