Chapter 197: Challenge Accepted

Just when Li Shimin and his entourage embarked on the return journey, the two aunts and nephews of the Ashina family were also on the way back to Honglu Temple.

"I should have said before, I shouldn't have come this time!"

Ashina Minghui was full of resentment at this time: "This is not a serious banquet, it's just a miasma, and it doesn't pollute my eyes!"

and the assassination that happened at the end, which made her even more annoyed. Although she was born on the grassland and is used to seeing life and death, that kind of scene still makes her feel bad.

There were also blood spots and brain flowers splashed in the distance, and when she couldn't catch off guard, she stuck to her favorite pure white fox fur, which especially made Ashina Minghui uncomfortable and distressed.

"I can't help but come. ”

Ashinash Bobi looked helpless: "This His Royal Highness the King of Qin, but one of our largest business partners in the Great Sui, every year through the hands of His Royal Highness to sell to the grassland of the ink armor, no less than 1,500. Before leaving the Khan's court, my father Khan had been my own *generation, and after you and I entered the Eastern Capital, we must respect this highness. It's best to be able to scale up the deal on what you have today. How dare I ignore it?"

When he said this, he looked at his 'aunt' with deep eyes: "No matter what the character of this person is, but he is a real great benefactor to my Turks,"

Ashina Minghui was stunned, and then said helplessly: "Forget it! But it's only this time, don't drag me over next time." ”

At this time, she found that Ashina Shi was looking out of the window in a daze, and she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows: "Are you looking at Ashina Simo? I also owe you, and now I still treat him as a slave, which will offend Ashina Simo to death." Sooner or later, he will be the hero of our steppe people!"

"So what?"

Ashinash smiled with a look of disdain: "But I know that this 'hero' will be my enemy sooner or later in the future." So if you offend, you can't be offended, that's it. It's rare to have a chance to humiliate him, I won't just let him go, he will bite me if he has the guts. ”

Seeing that Ashina Minghui was still going to persuade again, he smiled and shifted the question: "What's more, just now, I wasn't looking at Ashina Simo, but thinking about Li Shimin." ”

"Li Shimin?"

Ashina Minghui snorted lightly again: "Although this person is rude, he does have some skills. The power of that Qi Bi may not be able to suppress it, right?"

"Isn't this one a little capable?"

Ashinash put his hands behind his back and looked lazy: "On an occasion like the palace banquet in front of His Majesty, do you think that before the battle, Dong Chun and Yuan Wenshu didn't see it?"

Ashina Minghui was stunned, and then realized: "You mean, these people have already expected this one to be able to beat the three of you?"

"Auntie, you're really smart!"

Ashinash Bobi laughed: "Such a character, I, Ashinash Bobi, don't dare to underestimate it." I even suspect that he didn't do his best. ”

"Is it so powerful?"

Ashina Minghui was taken aback, and then looked at Ashina Shi with a disdainful gaze: "I'm afraid this is just what you want, right? If you want to lose decently, there is no more suitable guy than this guy." ”

"That's true, this person is excellent in martial arts, excellent in the art of war, he is a real young hero, and it is not a shame to lose to him. But that's beforeβ€”"

Ashinash Bobi said as he took a parchment scroll in his hand: "This is a private message from my father Khan two days ago, and he deeply appreciates what I have done in the Eastern Capital these days. He also said that I might as well make persistent efforts to let the people of the Great Sui government and the opposition know that there are successors of my Turkic clan, and they must not be humiliated. ”

Ashina Minghui still sneered, she didn't think that her brother's letter could make this loach-like guy in front of her change his mind. But the next moment, she heard Ashnashi Bobi laugh and said, "Father Khan said that if I can return victorious, he will reward me with 100,000 cattle and sheep and 1,000 herdsmen." Even Ashina Simo's side is the same reward. So no matter how you look at it this time, I have no reason to lose. ”

Ashina Minghui thought to herself that this is really the father of Zhizi Mo Ruo, with such a reward hanging, I don't worry about Ashinash's bowl not doing his best.

But she was a little worried: "Didn't you say that Dong Chun and Yuan Wenshu had seen this Li Shimin before." These two are super generals and grandmasters among the Han people, and if you give him a random guide or two, give him some benefits, and you can make this person's strength greater. What's more, this time, it's also about the face of the Sui roomβ€”"

Ashina Minghui said this, but her expression was a little complicated.

Her mother is Turkic Kedun, and she is also the princess of Yicheng of the Great Sui, and it is by relying on the strength of the Sui family that her mother can have 100,000 herdsmen and hundreds of thousands of male soldiers on the grassland, so that her wolf-like brothers dare not underestimate herds.

So Da Sui's face, to a certain extent, is also her Ashina Minghui's face,

"That being said, but a person's cultivation, where can they be easily improved if they want to? Even if they have Da Luo Jindan in hand, this is too late. ”

Ashinash Bobi still looked out the window, looking conceited: "Or Dong Chun does have confidence in him, but I also believe that even a character like Yuan Wenshu may not be able to see the depth of Ashinash's Bobi." The outcome of this battle is still unknown!"

At about the same time, Qi Liangchen and Cao Wen, the head of the Qi Palace, gathered again at the place where Qin Kerou died.

Qi Liangchen gently patted Qin Kerou's ink armor under the armpit, causing the armor to quickly retreat, revealing Qin Kerou's white and beautiful face inside.

Even if he is dead, this man's face can still be amazed by any man.

"This person is really, he doesn't even have the slightest sense of pity. ”

Qi Liangchen took a closer look, and then sighed: "What a stunning color this is, but today it is withering here." The spicy hands destroy the flowers, and there is no mercy. ”

"Less!"

Cao Wen still looked impatient: "Tell me directly, what did you find? I heard that this place was blocked a little later?"

"The reaction here is indeed a lot slower. Although that person was the first to strike at this side, the nearby residents, only at that time, there were people from the Tiger Roaring Hall and the Luohe Sword Sect here, who were fighting in this vicinity, and did not report the case to the government as soon as possible. It was not as good as the Jade Pavilion, it was full of princes and nobles, and the nest was blown up at that time. ”

Qi Liangchen said indifferently: "Actually, there is no difference, this scene has not been destroyed, and there are no clues worth mentioning." ”

"In other words, this time it's still nothing?"

Cao Wen only pinched the master with his fists, and his true yuan burst inch by inch outside his body, "But today, there are four deceased people in the Jade Pavilion alone, and now there is a dock master of the twelve consecutive docks?"

"Brother Cao, it's not just you who are angry now? The Son of Heaven is about to return to Beijing, and now in the Eastern Capital, there is such a thing, we embroider clothes and guards, who is not frightened? It is my Qi, whether I can live to the day after tomorrow, I don't know. ”

Qi Liangchen responded to Cao Wen with a cold gaze: "You are complaining about our embroidered clothes and guards, but if it weren't for the fact that your Qi Wangfu provoked people who shouldn't be provoked, why would we have to work hard everywhere in the past few days and not be at peace?"

Seeing Cao Wen's arrogance, he obviously restrained a little, and Qi Liangchen also breathed a sigh of relief: "You and I both know how troublesome it would be for such a divine shooter to go all out to assassinate him if he has no consequences? It seems that Brother Cao, your current attitude makes it difficult for me to do so? At this time, shouldn't we make concerted efforts to bring this murderer to justice? Ignoring one's duties and complaining is not a good way to solve the incident. ”

"Of course, I know this truth, but the performance of your embroidered guards is too disappointing. ”

Cao Wen sneered: "That person fired ten arrows in a row under your noses, and he didn't even notice it." The incompetence of the embroidered guards, I can also see it. ”

"The manpower of my embroidered guards is now overstretched, but even so, I still arranged nine light and dark sentinels in Yongning Temple, among which there is even a third grade. But that man's concealment technique is too clever, so what can I do about it?"

Qi Liangchen sneered: "Don't tell me, your Qi Wangfu is in Yongning Temple, so you haven't arranged manpower." ”

Cao Wen couldn't help but be dumbfounded, since five days ago, he had been in ambush in various highlands in the eastern capital of Luoyang, ambushing one or two powerful worship warriors.

He then seemed to know that he couldn't fight the person in front of him in words. He simply shut his mouth and made a move behind him.

Immediately, a young man came out from the rear and came to Cao Wen.

"Xuan Dao, help me see these corpses, what clues are there. ”

"Obey the orders of Grandpa Cao!"

The young man bowed without being arrogant or humble, and he leaned down in front of Qin Kerou's corpse and examined it carefully.

"I don't know who this is?"

Qi Liangchen asked a little strangely: "It looks a little familiar?"

"It is Li Xuandao, the secretary of our Qi Palace, who was born in the Guzang house of the Li family in Longxi. ”

Cao Wen was a little embarrassed, and seeing that Qi Liangchen was still puzzled, he smiled and said: "They are from the same family as the martial arts Li family, but they are from the Li Bao lineage. ”

Qi Liangchen suddenly realized that after the fall of Xiliang at that time, the son of Jiuquan Taishou Li Turn, who was supported as the king by the relics of the Liang Kingdom, returned to the Northern Wei Dynasty and served as the general of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

And Li Chong'er, the ancestor of the martial arts Li family, was brisk but more miserable, and after entering the Wei Dynasty, he could only be a seventh-grade petty official, and it took half a lifetime to become a Hongnong Taishou.

But in Li Hu's generation, the situation was reversed, and the martial arts Li family rose to become the top generals in Kansai and one of the eight pillar countries.
