The east was already red in the sky, and the rising sun rose from the clouds that had not awakened, and shone on the largest city of the White Wolf Clan.

The eight tribes of Wuda, except for the Nalu clan of the royal family, are the most powerful beggar clan with the white wolf as the banner.

After the defeat in the war in the grassland, they were forced to leave their homeland and migrate westward, originally thinking of finding a place to survive, but who knew that it bloomed in a different place, but in a hundred years, not only did they take root in the Western Regions, but also established a huge Vedic Khanate.

But the Vedic Khanate and the Tang Empire were different after all.

The Tang Empire respects the emperor, and the edict of the Son of Heaven does not dare to disobey.

However, since the founding of the Uda Khanate, although the king of the Udha Khan is called the Heavenly Khan, it is not a word, and the other seven tribes have their own fiefs and subordinate names, and they are also called Khans, and the seven khans have absolute ruling rights over the land and people under their jurisdiction.

If the Khanate wanted to wage war with the outside world, it had to convene the Zauli Assembly and the Eight Kings to discuss the government before making a final decision.

Once the khanate coveted the land of Xiling, and the previous khanate had a very high prestige and power in the Uda, in order to devour Xiling, the first khanate gathered eight hundred thousand iron horsemen of the Uda, broke through the pass, and once wanted to turn Xiling into the land of the khanate.

At that time, the Veda Khan king's reputation and prestige were at their peak, and no one dared to oppose the decision of the Heavenly Khan.

But on that snowy night, General Black Feather personally led thirty Black Feather Night Crows under his command to attack the king's tent, and unbelievably captured Tian Khan, which also directly led to the failure of that military operation, and Tian Khan made an oath that he would not set foot in the territory of the Tang Dynasty again in his lifetime.

Xiling turned the corner, and the Wutuo Iron Cavalry was forced to withdraw to the Guanwai.

But because of this, the prestige of the Heavenly Khan was severely frustrated, and the eight tribes of the Veda made great efforts, but in the end, they returned with a feather, in the eyes of many people, it was because of the capture of the Heavenly Khan, and many tribes complained about the Heavenly Khan.

Of course, the Heavenly Khan also knew that the outcome of the defeat would shake his khanate, so he immediately went westward to conquer the khanate, and after annexing two small states, he calmed the anger of the various tribes and stabilized the khan's throne.

However, Tian Khan promised not to set foot in the territory of the Tang Dynasty again in his lifetime, and after all, he was pierced in the hearts of other tribes like a fishbone.

The White Wolf Clan was once very dissatisfied with this.

After the war, the Tang Dynasty cut off trade with the Wutuo, and the most serious losses were the White Wolf tribe.

Before the war, the White Wolf tribe had benefited from the trade between the two sides, and had also opposed the attack on Xiling, but the previous Khan was very strong, and all tribes supported the strategy of sending troops to Xiling, and the White Wolf tribe could not support it alone, so they could only obey the order of the Khan of the Heavenly Khan.

If Xiling is annexed, it will be fine.

However, the war was lost, trade was interrupted, and the White Wolf tribe was devastated.

On the contrary, several tribes with fiefdoms in the west still trade with the countries of the Western Regions, and the Hu merchants of the Western Regions knew that the Tang State had cut off trade, so naturally they would not come to the east again.

In desperation, the White Wolf King has been begging the Heavenly Khan to show favor to the Tang Dynasty, and he is actively contacting the Tang Kingdom, hoping to reopen trade.

The establishment of the Tang City, the existence of the Tang City, also made the White Wolf Tribe the biggest beneficiary of trade.

With the lessons of the past, the White Wolf King resolutely opposed any further military conflict with the Tang State.

The White Wolf City has been expanding over the years under the hand of the White Wolf King, and now it is not only the largest city of the White Wolf Clan, but also the entire Vedic Khanate, and only the scale of the Heavenly Khan's Royal Court Muspura City can be above the White Wolf City.

White Wolf City has hundreds of thousands of residents, not only in the Western Regions style, but also in many buildings with the shadow of the Tang Dynasty.

There is a mixture of architectural styles from the east and west, and the Khan Palace is modeled after the style of the Tang Palace, which is ancient and ancient.

The rising sun shines on the Khan's palace, and if you only look at it, it gives people the illusion of entering Kyoto in the Tang Kingdom.

Of course, compared to the grandeur of the Tang Palace, the scale of the Khan Palace is far from it, and it is naturally far beyond it.

Under the rising sun, more than a dozen officials of the White Wolf Clan were kneeling outside the palace gate at this moment, and everyone's gods were unusually dignified, and it took a while for a while to walk out of it a middle-aged man with a goatee, followed by several Udra guards, glanced at the officials kneeling on the ground, coughed and said, "The Khan King asked you, do you want to intercede for the prisoner?" ”

"Jiao Liye Hu, Timuhe has led the wolf guard for many years, and he is loyal to the Khan King." One person raised his head and said: "With just one letter, it is really difficult to convince the public to say that he secretly colluded with the Tang State." We will ask to see the Khan and investigate the matter in detail. ”

"The Khan made his own decision, do you think the Khan is wrong?" Jiao Liye Hu sneered: "King Khan has ordered that Tiemuhe will be beheaded today, and whoever pleads will want to shelter Tiemuhe and pull it to behead together." ”

"Jiao Li Ye Hu, the three generations of Timuhe have all led the wolf guard, and their family has never had a traitor." Someone said: "If you easily cut off the head of Tiemuhe, it will definitely make many tribes panic, even a loyal person like Timuhe has been killed, who else will be loyal to the Khan in the future?" ”

Jiao Liye said sharply: "You mean that there are tribes who want to betray the Khan and are unwilling to be loyal to the Khan?" Look directly at the man: "Who are you talking about?" But yourself? ”

The man said in a deep voice: "I have long sworn allegiance to the Khan, and even if the mountains fall and the rivers dry up, my loyalty will not be changed. But many people have been killed recently, some of the charges are still vague, and even some of the crimes are from a long time ago, Jiaoli Yehu, the Khan King has always been lenient, why is it suddenly like this? ”

"Not bad." A middle-aged official exclaimed: "The king of Khan has told us that if he is at fault, we need not be afraid, we can speak out to him." We feel that the Khan has done something wrong now, and we have to admonish the Khan. ”

Jiao Liye Hu sneered: "King Khan is unwell and has been recuperating, don't you know? What is the intention of going to see the Khan at this time? ”

"The king of the Khan is not in good health, and he is begging for good to exercise the power of the king of the khan." An elderly official said calmly: "We want to know, some orders, is it the meaning of the Khan King, or the meaning of begging for goodness?" ”

Jiao Liye Hu was about to speak, but he heard a cold voice behind him: "Xue Qilu Qijin, you seem to suspect me of being arbitrary and stealing the order of the Khan King, does that mean?" As he spoke, a man walked slowly from behind, slender and long, but his eyes were extremely sharp, with a scimitar hanging from his waist, and he was given a person up and down

A very uncomfortable yīn feeling.

When Jiao Li saw the comer, he immediately bowed and saluted, saying, "Begging for good Khan!" ”

The Veda is respected by the Heavenly Khan, and there are seven great khans under it, these seven great khans are all real khans who hold real power, but there are also false khans who are knighted, only the name of the khan, but no khan power, often given to the brothers of the seven khans with outstanding merits, and the number is very small.

Qifushan has always been the most important arm of the White Wolf Khan King, and he is the brother of the White Wolf King, who has been named Qifushan Khan many years ago.

When the people kneeling on the ground saw the appearance of the beggar Khan, they were all nervous.

Qifu Shanhan slowly walked in front of Xue Qilu Qijin, squatted down, looked at Xue Qilu's old face, and asked, "I asked you, didn't you hear?" ”

"Beggarshan Khan, I don't mean what you say." Xue Qilu said: "We just want to know, how is King Khan's health now?" We have not seen the Khan for almost two months, but during these two months the Khan ordered the killing of many important ministers, which has caused fear among many tribesmen. Now that Timuhe, the commander of the wolf guard for many years, is also to be executed, everyone knows that his clan and he have always been loyal to the Khan, and if he is killed, it will cause even greater panic, and we pray that the Khan will think twice. ”

"We have found a secret letter of collusion between Temuha and the Tang people." Begging Fu Shan looked cold: "Isn't this evidence?" ”

"This evidence does not fully prove that Timuhe betrayed the khanate." Xue Qilu said: "We need to find out, where did this letter come from, whether it was written by Timuhe himself, if he colluded with the Tang people, we also have to search whether there is a secret letter given to him by the Tang people, if we can find out these clearly, and prove that he did betray the khanate, then he must be put to death, but now the evidence is not sufficient." ”

Qi Fushan smiled strangely and said, "But Brother Khan has already ordered that Temuha will be executed today, but you are here to block it, do you want to disobey King Khan's order?" ”

"We did not dare to disobey the decree of the Khan, we only did what the Khan commanded, and pointed out the fault to him when he was at fault." Xue Qilu stared at Qi Fu Shan's eyes, and was not afraid: "We just want to see King Khan, and ask Qi Fu Shan Khan to take us to meet him." ”

"What will happen to you if I don't take you there?" Qi Fushan said lightly: "Have been kneeling here and letting others see jokes?" ”

"If we don't see the Khan, we won't leave." A person behind Xue Qilu said loudly.

"If I let you go, you won't go?" The beggar looked at the man.

The man said, "Yes, no one can let me leave without seeing the Khan!" ”

Qi Fu Shan slowly stood up, walked in front of the man, and suddenly pulled out the knife out of the sheath, without waiting for everyone to react, the knife flashed, blood splattered, Qi Fu Shan had already cut off the man's head with a knife, and the others exclaimed, Xue Qilu also changed dramatically, and exclaimed: "Qi Fu Shan Khan, you ......!"

"Brother Khan has ordered that when he is recuperating, I will act as the king of Khan." Qi Fushan wiped the blood stains of the scimitar on the corpse, and his voice was clear: "Whoever disobeys my orders is disobeying Brother Khan's orders, and if he disobeys Brother Khan, then he will rebel, and the crime of rebellion will be killed!" His eyes swept over everyone, and he said coldly: "Let you leave now, do you still want to stay here?" ”
