Chapter 59: Princess Yicheng

Yang Yichen didn't pay attention to him, and continued: "Lao Chen's intention is not to raise troops to conscript, just to make a show. The minister heard that Shibi and his younger brothers were in harmony, and if there was movement from the Turks, it was difficult to say that it would not affect the Turks' stay and stay. ”

"Yang Qing is reasonable." Yang Guang nodded.

"The minister thinks it's impossible, does the letter sent to Daxing Palace also rely on Kong Ming lantern? Such confidential documents can be easily intercepted! Yu Wenhua couldn't help but question.

Yang Yichen finally got angry, I don't know if he got up violently, or if he was really angry and rushed to the crown, his hat was crooked.

"Yuwen old horseman!" Yang Yichen first scolded, and then his whole body trembled and said: "The first Bi Yongbing is eyeing the outside of the city, as a courtier, he doesn't think of a good strategy, but he is entangled in personal grievances, and he is rebellious!" ”

Yu Wenhua was also annoyed: "I'm just raising my own questions, how to deliver the letter!" ”

"Foolish!" Yang Yichen said angrily: "Daizhou is the closest to Taiyuan, and the Turks only set up an ambush on the road to Taiyuan, could it be that there are so many Turkic soldiers that all roads are blocked by them?" ”

This, Yu Wenhua and Yu choked, and his face turned red, but he still straightened his neck and asked: "Your Majesty and I are besieged here, presumably the local government will know that the whole country will come to relieve the siege at that time, and where can the troops be distracted and go to deter the Turks?" ”

This time, it was Yang Yichen's turn to have nothing to say, and he snorted for a long time: "I just don't want to sit here and wait for death!" ”

"I've been fighting all my life, and I've had countless scars on my body, so why am I afraid of death? But the only thing we can do now is wait! Yu Wenhua finally had the upper hand, a little proud.

"Not necessarily."

A voice like a silver bell sounded, and Yuan Ziyan blinked and spoke with big eyes: "Your Majesty, I think Lord Yang was on the point just now. ”

Well, Yang Guang nodded, and sighed heavily: "But Hua Ji is also conclusive, and there are no troops to divide." ”

Yuan Ziyan shook his head with a smile and said, "I just heard Lord Yang say that the Turkic Shibi Khan and his younger brother are not in harmony, maybe you can start from this piece. ”

"Purple Smoke Girl!" Yang Yichen immediately gave up his hand, but his face was sad: "But in a short period of time, how can you instigate his brotherly feelings?" Unless it's his brother who really reverses. ”

"Since Shi Bi dares to raise the entire Turkic army to attack, it must have been arranged by the rear a long time ago, so his brother's words and deeds should be within the scope of Shi Bi's monitoring." Yuan Zi flue.

"That's the same as not saying it!" Yu Wenhua snorted disdainfully.

Yuan Ziyan glared at him dissatisfiedly, and was about to refute, but Yu Wenhua's son Yuwen Chengji spoke first, and said in a deep voice: "Actually, there is no need for his brother to really rebel, and there is no need to notify the palace in advance, we can directly send a messenger to the Turks." If you buy off the cronies of the Turks and spread false news, maybe things will be much easier. ”

"Takami!" Yuan Ziyan immediately gave a thumbs up and praised it, and after being reminded by Yuwen Chengji, he really remembered a person, maybe for Shibi, in addition to parents and children, this person is the most credible, and can even surpass his brothers.

"Your Majesty, since the first emperor, there have been princesses who married to the Turks. They may be able to enjoy glory and wealth there, but they have no relatives, maybe their hearts are still Great Sui, and they can speak to Shibi. Yuan Ziyan reminded.

Everyone was silent, and Yang Guang sighed again for a long time, and his eyes were still red, "Speaking of princesses, I have a cousin, Princess Yicheng, who can be called a heroine among women, and she is very righteous. At the beginning, the Turks invaded several times, and his father and emperor could not sleep comfortably, so he wanted to get married. At that time, there were many women in the princes and nobles' families, and there were many prevarications, only Princess Yicheng volunteered to ask for her life and was willing to dedicate her life to the Great Sui. ”

Yes, Princess Yicheng, women don't let their eyebrows go, how loyal and brave! Everyone was full of praise.

His father was very happy, so he named her Princess Yicheng, married Shibi's father, Qimin Khan, and became the noble Turkic Kedun. But then ......"

Yang Guang couldn't go on, Yuan Ziyan asked curiously, "What's the matter, is it sick or dead?" ”

"Definitely!" Yang Yichen said indignantly: "At the beginning, it was reluctant for a woman to marry an old khan, and she didn't want to live for a few years, the old khan died of illness, and the Turkic folklore really didn't dare to compliment, and Princess Yicheng was forced to marry the son of Qimin!" According to the etiquette of the Han family, a woman serving her husband and a husband will be criticized, not to mention a father and son! Alas, I heard that the princess was worse than dead, and wanted to commit suicide several times, if it weren't for the fear that death would cause the conflict between the Great Sui and the Turks, I was afraid that she would have been martyred a long time ago. ”

"Oh, that's even better!" Yuan Ziyan clapped his little hands excitedly, which immediately attracted the sideways glances of several people, everyone is talking sadly, you are still happy!

Uh, Yuan Ziyan stuck out her little tongue in embarrassment, and said: "Everyone listen to my explanation, it's too late to send troops or temporarily sow discord now, but now you can send someone to secretly contact Princess Yicheng, and if you are moved by her affection and reason, you may be able to help us." ”

After a moment of silence, Yang Guang asked hesitantly, "Is this feasible?" ”

"Maybe it's worth a try." Yang Yichen stepped forward and said.

There are also ministers who object, although it is a second husband, but whether it is the Khan of Qimin or the Khan of Shibi, after all, it is a Turkic custom, which is not a shame in the local area, but people praise the charm of women more.

Therefore, the opposition's doubts are, will Princess Yicheng really help Da Sui? After all, her tragedies were all caused by the Great Sui royal family, and the current Khan is her husband after all. If Princess Yicheng really wrote a letter to inform her brother-in-law that she was going to rebel, and the matter was revealed afterwards, it would also be a dead end, would Princess Yicheng risk her life to facilitate this matter? After all, a woman is a woman, and her husband is heaven.

"I can't help but say that everyone's scruples are very reasonable. But is there a better way to do it? Yuan Ziyan asked rhetorically, and everyone looked at each other without squeaking. Yuan Ziyan continued: "Now, the Turkic 30,000 iron cavalry is guarding outside the city, maybe there will be countless Turkic soldiers who have been ambushed in advance to attack Daizhou early tomorrow morning. ”

Yes, everyone looks horrified when they think about this.

"As we said earlier, Shi Bi came prepared this time, since he can fool the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty and put His Majesty in danger, then his rear should also be heavily guarded and relatively strong. Therefore, it is impossible for us to buy off his cronies who remained in the Turks in a short period of time. ”

"So, will we be able to convince Princess Yicheng?" Yu Wenhua asked.

"Not necessarily." Yuan Ziyan immediately said: "However, there is a great certainty of one thing, that is, if this lobbying is not successful, Princess Yicheng will not necessarily tell Shibi the whole story of this matter." ”

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that Miss Purple Smoke's words are very reasonable. The Turks are fierce, and this battle must have been fierce, and it is not known whether it will last long. Therefore, it is indeed the best policy to let him have turmoil in the rear and let him take the initiative to retreat. Yang Yichen stepped forward and said.

"Anyway, I will immediately leave the letter, secretly take it to the Turks, and become a princess in person." Yang Guang made up his mind.

"Your Majesty, the army is in chaos, and it is easier to expose the secret letter with you. It's better to be a commonly used object of yours, and it's also something that Princess Yicheng has seen. Shibi is such a big move, Princess Yicheng must know, there is no need to say anything, as long as she conveys His Majesty's intentions, she will have a choice. Yuan Ziyan suggested.

"Yes, yes, it's still the Purple Smoke Girl's thoughtfulness." Yang Yichen appreciated.

Yang Guang thought about it, and asked Xu Tingfu to take his sword and untie the delicate tassels on it, according to Yang Guang, this was a congratulatory gift given to him by Princess Yicheng when he was just crowned King of Jin.

Over the years, Yang Guang has changed several exquisite swords, but this spike is not as fine as that made by Princess Yicheng, so he has been using it all the time.

Suddenly, Yang Guang picked up the sword and slashed it on his finger, and immediately blood gushed out.

Everyone was startled, and they all knelt down, not knowing what Yang Guang meant. Xu Tingfu was terrified, and shouted with a crying voice: "Your Majesty, how can you hurt your dragon body!" ”

Yang Guang did not answer, but dropped a few drops of blood on the spikes. Without further ado, Yang Guang immediately asked people to wrap up carefully, and immediately quietly went out from the south gate, detoured to Turkic, and sent it to Princess Yicheng.

Yuan Ziyan secretly admired in his heart, Yang Guang This is a bitter plan, he didn't say anything, just a few drops of blood, maybe it could really touch Princess Yicheng's homesickness.

Less than three hours before the arrival of Shibi, an all-out battle finally broke out!

The Turkic soldiers who had long been ambushed around Yanmen were like a tide besieging Daizhou City from all directions, and the sound of killing shook the sky.

There was almost no second of hesitation, and seeing that the time was ripe, Shibi immediately issued the order for an all-out attack, and this monstrous crowd immediately rushed towards the crumbling Daizhou City.

The archers on the city wall immediately fired arrows at the Turkic soldiers who were pressed by the black pressure below, and rows of Turkic soldiers fell, but rows of them rushed up frantically, and they couldn't kill them endlessly.

"Could it really be that the sky is going to kill my Great Sui?" Yang Guang stood on top of the city tower, trembling and looking at everything below.

There are at least 150,000 Turkic soldiers, who have surrounded Daizhou City three layers inside and three layers outside, and there are more soldiers in the distance, maybe the final number is more than 300,000!

Yuan Ziyan was also frightened, knowing that Shi Bi had mobilized the greatest amount of strength for this battle. Yuan Ziyan was secretly glad in his heart that the messenger had taken a step earlier, otherwise, with the current situation, he would definitely not have gotten out of the city.

There are a total of 60,000 soldiers and horses in the city of Daizhou, which is less than half of the current Turkic soldiers, and in a few hours, more Turkic soldiers will arrive, several times the strength of Daizhou itself.

"How long will this last?" Yang Guang asked gloomily.

"I'm afraid that the best situation will not be more than half a day!" Yang Yichen was worried, and said bluntly: "And if the Turkic reinforcements arrive, I'm afraid that Daizhou City is in danger!" ”
