Chapter 189: Turkic Princess
When Li Shimin had just arrived at Chongwen Pavilion on duty, Yang Ying had already heard the news, this still had a large number of slaves and maids with her, and everyone was holding more than a dozen books in their hands, mighty,
Li Shimin's news found that the books that Yang Ying brought over as teaching materials today were more than twice as many as those of the previous three days. He, a disciple, has obviously grasped his preferences, which makes Li Shimin want to teach for as long as possible.
But in addition to this, there is also a beautiful girl wearing bright alien costumes, slender and fit, slim, red lips and white teeth, and eyes like apricots.
"What is this?"
Li Shimin had actually guessed the identity of this girl, but he still looked at Yang Ying with an inquiring gaze,
Why did this girl bring this Turkic princess here?
"This is Princess Minghui, Ashina Minghui!"
Yang Ying stood in front of Ashina Minghui and rolled her eyes a little helplessly: "Minghui said that she was bored, and when she heard that I was going to come to class, she had to come over to take a look." β
She was actually annoyed by this cousin, if it wasn't for the queen mother's instructions, she must not be willful, and she should not be rude and offended, she didn't want to deal with it at all.
Li Shimin shook his head secretly, but he saluted the princess with a solemn expression: "The last general has seen Her Royal Highness the princess!"
The one in front of him is not only a Turkic princess, but also a canonized by the Son of Heaven, which can be described as genuine.
Ashina Minghui has always looked at Li Shimin thoughtfully: "You are Li Shimin? Thin arms and legs, is he really one of the strongest masters in the Eastern Capital now?"
"The princess's words, the last general will not dare to take it. β
Li Shimin looked stunned: "If you want to say that you are the strongest, now in the Eastern Capital, there are many people who can beat me Li Shimin." β
"Just your age. β
Ashina Minghui smiled and waved his hand: "My nephew, I often mention the name of you and that Yuwen Chengdu and Pei Xingyan, saying that you are the strongest young people in the entire Great Sui, and I have always been looking forward to fighting you." I hope you won't let him down. β
Li Shimin knew that the nephew he was talking about should be Ashinash.
The Turkic generations are very chaotic, Ashina Minghui is the daughter of Qiming Khan, but after the death of Qiming Khan, his Kedun, that is, Ashina Minghui's mother, Princess Yicheng, married Shibi Khan.
And Ashinash Bobi is the son of Shibi Khan.
"Naturally, he won't be disappointed. β
The corners of Li Shimin's lips were slightly raised, his eyes suddenly sharpened a few points, and he looked at the girl opposite: "Today just by the way, please ask Princess Minghui to convey to Ashinash Bobi and Nakoluo on my behalf, the Qianqiu Festival Night Banquet of His Royal Highness Empress Xiao, I, Li Shimin, will fight with him in front of the Son of Heaven!"
The so-called 'Nakoro' is Ashnashim. Since the Turkic division did not take the initiative to reveal this identity, the Great Sui also acquiesced to this servant status.
"You're bold!"
Ashina's bright eyes also became cold: "But I have seen a lot of the so-called young heroes in your Central Plains." No one can match Shi Bo and not beat Nakoro. β
"That's because Her Royal Highness the princess, I haven't seen the real Central Plains Junjie!"
Li Shimin laughed instead: "I, the Great Sui Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger, like two special service-like characters, can only let me enter and make a move after learning from the end of the martial arts." β
Yang Ying also said dissatisfiedly: "How can you compare those wine bags and rice bags with Li Yitong? Li Yi told him that if he can win, then he will definitely not lose. β
"Ying'er, you have a lot of confidence in him,"
Ashina Minghui glanced at it with some dignity, and then said with a cold face: "I hope that Li Yi and you will be able to say such things after you lose to Shi Bobi and Nakoro." β
Then she walked away, as if she didn't want to stay here for a moment.
And after Ashina Minghui left, Yang Ying was full of appreciation for the first time and gave Li Shimin a thumbs up.
But after a while, Yang Ying asked suspiciously: "I always feel that just now, it doesn't seem to be in line with Li Yitong's temperament." β
Li Shimin in her impression has always been unsharp and modest, and it is rare for such a sharp edge to be fully displayed.
"It's just that I can't see those two Turkic princes, and they are too presumptuous in my eastern capital. β
Li Shimin's words were not untrue, and he prevaricated casually.
His provocation this time was actually just to maximize the benefits of this war. The purpose of making an appointment to fight in advance is to let the entire eastern capital Luoyang know about it through the mouths of everyone here, so as to build momentum and promote his reputation.
Since you can't keep a low profile, you might as well swing up and fly straight to the Nine Heavens.
The winds above the nine heavens may be less than on the earthβ
This must also be the meaning of His Royal Highness Empress Xiao, who can't let those foreign princes think that there is no one in the eastern capital.
"Those guys are really too arrogant. At my uncle's birthday banquet before, I made my mother so angry. β
Yang Ying hated the same enemy, and her voice was indignant, but then she looked at Li Shimin with some concern: "But Li Yitong, are you really sure? These three people should be really powerful, I heard that they fought dozens of fights, none of them exceeded 30 rounds, and they lost very badly." β
"Her Royal Highness doesn't believe me anymore?"
Li Shimin laughed, and then pressed the Qianniu knife with his hand, and in his peaceful eyes, there was suddenly a little more conceit: "If their talents are not the likes of Chu Bawang and Wenhou, then I shouldn't have the possibility of losing." β
When Yang Ying heard this, her eyes suddenly flashed slightly, and a flush suddenly appeared on her cheeks.

That night, Li Shimin went back to the Tang Mansion for dinner.
Although he now has a tendency to take the other courtyard as his home, he does not dare to provoke Li Yuan and Mrs. Dou's bottom line. Especially the latter, Li Shimin knew that if he really didn't return home for ten days and a half months, Mrs. Dou would most likely let someone do it directly and tie him up back to Tang Guofu, so the necessary pacification was still needed, and he had to go back once in three or five days.
And since Li Xuanba's death, his mother's body has become more and more unbearable, and she can't stop coughing. If it weren't for revenge, Li Shimin would actually stay at home and spend more time with his mother.
And at the family banquet, Li Yuan asked quietly: "Can you grasp Pilu Sha?"
With this sentence, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji immediately lifted their spirits and looked sideways at their brothers.
- Li Shimin's appointment with the two Turkic spies had spread throughout Luoyang City as early as noon.
"It should be able to win. β
Li Shimin had already expected it, and continued to bury his head in the rice without care: "I was in the palace before, and I received three knives from General Dugusheng. General Dong Chun said that I don't think I will lose, and the head of the Yuan Dynasty praised our martial arts Li clan successors. β
Li Yuan will be able to inquire about this matter sooner or later, so he will not hide it.
"Really?"
Li Yuan's eyes suddenly showed joy. Although he tried his best to push him to fight this time, he still suffered from gains and losses in his heart.
Although Li Shimin's martial arts attainments are already among the best among his peers, he should not lose to Ashinash, but what if? What if he loses?
At that time, not only will Li Shimin lose face and his future will be bleak, but the reputation of the martial arts Li clan will also be damaged.
But since big masters like Dong Chun and Yuan Wenshu said so, there is really no need to worry.
The former is one of the only more than ten super-grade generals in the imperial court, and the latter is one of the seven great masters in the world.
There is no need to doubt the eyes of these two. In this battle, Li Shimin has at least a ninety percent chance of winning.
However, after Li Yuan hesitated slightly, he still took the housekeeper Li Dai and took the two Dan bottles.
"This is a Six-Refining Great Luo Dan, a Six-Turning Dragon Body Pill, which may be beneficial to your cultivation. β
Seeing this, Li Shimin couldn't help but look at Li Yuan a little. The latter stroked his long beard with his hand: "The former was brought to you by your sixth uncle, saying that you must not fall into the prestige of our Li family,"
"Seventh Uncle Ancestor?"
Li Shimin was stunned, the seventh uncle's ancestor was named Li Liang, and he was an outlier in their martial arts Li clan. Obsessed with cultivation and immortality, he is completely uninterested in fame and fortune, and he is the only one in the clan who has cultivated magic to the third grade before Li Shimin. However, it is said that this one's time is running out.
But since there are only these six refining Great Luo Dan, which was given by the Seventh Uncle Ancestor, where did the other Six Refining Dragon Body Pill come from?
Li Shimin didn't think much about it, so he laughed and said: "The so-called elder gift, I dare not resign, the child thanks his father and the seventh uncle for their love." Please also tell the Seventh Uncle Ancestor that the child will not disgrace the prestige of the martial arts Li family. β
He was honest and unkind, and took these two pills into his arms.
In fact, these things have limited improvement for his current cultivation. Since he began to condense the true intent of martial arts, he has passed the stage of accumulation of true yuan, and simply piling up yuan power no longer means anything to Li Shimin.
However, although Li Shimin himself can't use these two pills, his subordinates can still use them.
Fan Shixing has now been promoted to the fifth grade, which is the time when Zhenyuan is growing rapidly and improving. And although he had purchased an Eight Refining Great Returning Pill in the black market before, making Fan Shixing's cultivation a great advance, this was far from the limit of this person.
These two pills can help Fan Shixing go one step further and step into the realm of the four products in one fell swoop.
At this moment, an unusually loud voice came from outside the door: "Where is my nephew Virusha?"
Li Shimin and the others couldn't help but look at the door in astonishment, and then saw a man with a majestic and unusual figure walking in from the wall.
"Uncle Seven?"
The person in front of him is his cousin Li Zhen, who ranks seventh among his cousins.
And after Li Zhen saw Li Shimin, his eyes lit up, and he strode out, and then slapped Li Shimin on the shoulder: "Good guy, I heard that you are going to make an appointment with those two Turkic spies on the Qianqiu Festival? This time I brought you a lot of things for Uncle Ke, on the day of the Thousand Autumn Festival, don't embarrass our martial arts Li clan,"
