Chapter 1179: Arrest and Arrest
"What? Ashina Association led that anti-bone boy to assassinate Tian Khan! Ashina Simo was shocked when he heard this, and couldn't help but exclaim, he never thought that it was the Turks who assassinated His Majesty, and it was the Turkic Khan.
Li Chengqian nodded and said: "Yes, there is an eight-hundred-mile rush from Jiucheng Palace, and Ashina Association led to collude with He Luohu to gather hundreds of Turkic rebels, and then His Royal Highness the King of Jin went to Jiucheng Palace to assassinate the emperor. ”
Li Chengqian simply told the story again, and the whole dynasty was in an uproar, shouting that it was lucky, if it was because of the strong wind, I am afraid that this time the emperor would be really dangerous.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Mingjian, this matter was done privately by Ashina Association and He Luohu, we are loyal to the Tang Dynasty, and we have no heart to rebel!" Ashina Simo knelt on the ground and cried out bitterly, and other Turkic generals also shouted injustice.
A group of Turkic generals shouted grievances and secretly scolded Ashina for the association rate over and over again, making them miserable.
According to the rules of the steppe, the defeat of a tribe was extremely miserable, and after the defeat of the Turks, Li Shimin did not kill them all, but moved the Turkic tribes to the south of the warm Yellow River, and made a large number of officials against them.
Those who can come to the Taiji Hall are vested interests, they enjoy the worship of the tribe and hold the rich fortune of the Tang Dynasty, and they have no rebellious heart, and even many people enjoy this kind of glorious and wealthy life, but the rebellion of Ashina's association rate is likely to bring their glory and wealth to nothing.
"Since you have come to the Taiji Hall alone, this palace naturally understands your loyalty to the Tang Dynasty, and when your father returns, this palace will definitely explain to your father." Li Chengqian looked kind, and personally stepped forward to personally help up a group of Turkic generals and appease them one by one.
"Thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince, for your understanding! Dare to ask where He Luohu is, and the old minister personally slaughtered him. Ashnasimo got up gratefully and roared.
In this rebellion, Ashina was on the run, and there was also a mastermind He Luohu still in Chang'an City, and for a moment, the anger of the Turkic generals was focused on He Luohu.
Li Chengqian sneered: "General rest assured, the palace has already ordered the capture of He Luohu, and I believe it should be here now." ”
Outside Chang'an City, outside He Luohu's secret manor, a group of Praetorian Guards surrounded the manor.
"Attack!"
Cheng Yanjin, who was the leader, was wearing heavy armor, and he couldn't help but say coldly when he looked at the heavily guarded manor.
Suddenly, a large number of Praetorian Guards began to attack the manor, a rushing car smashed the gate of the manor open, a large number of forbidden troops killed one after another, and soon the fierce fighting sound from the manor quickly fell silent.
When Cheng Biting Jin stepped into this Turkic-style manor, the Turkic rebels in the entire manor were ambushed with corpses, extremely bloody, and all those who plotted against the assassin were heinous capital crimes, and the Praetorian Guards did not spare them at all.
"Where's Holohu?" Cheng Yanjin frowned.
"Stuck there!" A Praetorian Guard pointed to the middle of the manor, a most glorious tooth tent.
Cheng Yanjin approached, and the Praetorian Guards got out of the way, only to see a young man in the middle of the tooth tent wearing the clothes of a khan sitting in the tooth tent, formally greeting Luo Hu.
"You didn't run away?" Cheng Yanjin said in surprise.
"Why did Ben Khan flee! I am the grandson of the noble Ashina descendant Shibi Khan, the Khan of the Turks, the co-lord of the steppe, you think I am the soft bone of Jieli, and I kneel down to you and beg for mercy. Holohu said proudly.
Cheng Biting Jin frowned, looking at He Luohu like a madman, and puzzled: "With your status, there is no shortage of glory and wealth, why do you want to rebel." ”
He Luohu laughed loudly and said, "Rebellion? It's a joke, Li Shimin personally named me a khan, but he trapped me in Chang'an, a khan who is not in the tribe is still a khan? Since Li Shimin did not give this position of khan, then what is wrong with me coming and going in person! ”
At this point, He Luohu had no way out, originally he could still suppress his ambition and pity himself when no one was around, but after the bewitchment of Ashina's association rate, his ambition was like a raging fire, and he could not be extinguished.
"This person has gone mad, imprisoned, and waited for His Majesty to come back and send him out." Cheng Yanjin looked at the crazy He Luohu and waved his big hand.
"Stop, who dares to arrest me, I am a Turkic Khan, the grandson of Shibi Khan, I think that Li Yuan was respectful when he saw my ancestor."
"When my Turkic army arrives, I will definitely kill all of you Han people." Holohus roared frantically.
Unfortunately, everything was in vain, and He Luohu was immediately suppressed by the Praetorian Guards, who even gagged him to prevent him from talking nonsense.
When He Luohu was escorted back to Chang'an City, almost at the same time, Qin Huaiyu and the three of them also rushed to Chang'an City under the pressure of Ashina's association.
At this point, the two culprits who assassinated Li Shimin were all escorted to the case, but although the mastermind has been arrested, the assassination case of Jiuchenggong has not ended.
When the two were escorted into Chang'an City, the news of the assassination of Li Shimin by the Turkic rebels immediately spread in Chang'an City, and the entire people were immediately excited.
One by one, the people of Chang'an poured out, pointing at the two and scolding, rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves kept smashing at the two.
"The Turks are really wolf ambitions, how much grain does Your Majesty allocate every year to feed them, and they actually take revenge and assassinate Your Majesty!"
The people were filled with righteous indignation, and they angrily denounced the Turks for being ungrateful, and the Turks were the feud of the Han people, but since Li Shimin moved the Turkic tribes inward, and allocated money and grain every year, which can be described as having a good time, in contrast, the Han people actually have the feeling of second-class citizens.
Originally, the Han people had opinions on this situation, but now the assassination of Li Shimin by the Turkic rebels occurred, which suddenly detonated the contradictions between the Han people and the Turks.
"Let the Turks get out of the Tang Dynasty!"
All of a sudden, the people of Chang'an were excited and shouted one after another.
"Ashina's association rate is simply damned!" In the Taiji Palace, Li Chengqian heard the reaction of the people, and couldn't help but secretly hate, as the prince, Li Chengqian naturally knew the role of the Turks, the internal migration of the Turks made the northern frontier stable for ten years, and the addition of the Turks made the strength of the Tang Dynasty increase dramatically.
Although the main force is the Tang army, the Turkic generals and soldiers have made great contributions, once the Tang Dynasty and the Turks are at odds, the strength of the Tang Dynasty has been greatly reduced, not to mention, the Turks have returned to the grassland like a tiger returning to the mountains, and there is no day of stability on the northern border.
"Where is my father?" Li Chengqian asked anxiously, such a big matter is no longer something that he, the prince, can decide, only wait for Li Shimin to come back and make a decision.
"Drive!"
On the official road from Jiucheng Palace to Chang'an City, a long convoy is moving at a high speed, after Li Shimin appeased Empress Changsun, he immediately restored the nature of the emperor, entrusted it to Princess Changle to take care of, and immediately rushed to Chang'an City with Merton.
The carriage galloped all the way, all using the method of changing people without changing horses, and it took only three hours for the 300-mile road to reach Chang'an City.
