Chapter 133: Goodbye Tuli
After the sound of the announcement, a person came in the tent, only to see that this person was black-faced and bearded, more than eight feet tall, with solid muscles, and looked extremely rough, like a good fighter, but Li Haochen could see that this was called the envoy of Tazahatuli Khan, with eyes and eyes, obviously this messenger should be known for his resourcefulness, not force.
After Tazaha greeted Li Yuanji, the banquet began, but Li Haochen on the side found that this Turki envoy named Tazaha had been secretly looking at Li Yuanji's expression, obviously wanting to see something from Li Yuanji's face. Li Haochen was also afraid that Li Yuanji would show clues, so he smiled, raised the wine glass in his hand and said to Tazaha: "Tazaha envoy, Benhou Li Haochen, toast the envoy with a glass of wine, and at the same time Benhou wants to tell the envoy that there is a gap between this Turkic culture and the culture of my Tang Dynasty, I think you have been peeking at His Royal Highness the King just now, if this is a manifestation of contempt for the royal family in this dynasty, it is a big crime to punish the nine clans!" ”
Li Haochen's words were half-truths and half-truths, but his words made Tazaha hurriedly apologize, saying that he had not seen the royal family of the Celestial Empire, and he looked at it a few more times when he was curious, and he did not mean to despise the royal family.
Li Yuanji also hurriedly cooperated with Li Haochen and said: "Haochen, Tazaha is a Turkic envoy after all, and he doesn't know my Dafa, so the original king is tolerant, so forget it this time!" ”
The Turkic envoy Tazaha, with a ray of essence shot out of his eyes, obviously understood, Li Haochen and Li Yuanji were beating him in harmony with each other, but they were weaker than people, so he had to get up and salute Li Yuanji and said, "His Royal Highness King Xie Qi is forgiving!" ”
Li Yuanji nodded, clapped his hands and signaled that Tazaha did not need to be polite, and then he opened his mouth and went straight to the point: "Tazaha envoy, you came to find this king this time, don't you know what is the matter with the Turkic Khan?" ”
After Li Yuanji's words were finished, Tazaha remembered the purpose of his trip, and hurriedly saluted again: "Your Majesty, I have indeed been entrusted by the Tuli Khan here, and I have important things to report to His Royal Highness the King of Qi!" ”
Li Yuanji sighed, and then continued: "What's the matter? Tell the king the truth to the messenger of Tazaha! After speaking, his face was as usual, and he couldn't see any joy or anger.
Tazaha looked at Li Yuanji's calm appearance, and a strong sense of frustration arose in his heart, but he still said: "The Tuli Khan asked the foreign minister to tell the king that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Celestial Dynasty likes the grasslands outside the Saiwai very much, and he is happy to think about it, please send troops to exterminate the rebel Jili Khan as soon as possible, and the Tuli Khan will definitely protect the safety of the Celestial Prince." ”
This is more interesting, this Tazaha said it very respectfully, but the threat in the words is already very obvious. This is said that Li Yuanji sent troops to exterminate Jieli Khan, and Tuli Khan protected Li Chengzong's safety. However, the reverse of this is that if Li Yuanji does not send troops to exterminate Jieli Khan, then Li Chengzong's safety will not be guaranteed.
These words are equivalent to tearing their faces, but both sides are jealous, although Tazaha's words made Li Yuanji very uncomfortable, but thinking that his prince and nephew are still in the hands of others, it is not easy to attack, and can only hope that Li Haochen's method can work, so he nodded calmly and said: "You go back and tell the Turki Khan, saying that this king knows!" ”
Originally, after Li Yuanji's words were finished, Tazaha thought that Li Yuanji would say when to send troops, but he waited for Li Yuanji's next words for a long time, but he waited for a long time and didn't see any news from Li Yuanji.
Li Yuanji looked at Tazaha and kept looking at himself. He pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Envoy Tazaha, do you have anything else to say to this king?" Or does the Turki Khan have anything else to say for this king? ”
After Li Yuanji finished speaking, he showed a tired look, yawned and continued: "This king has been entangled in military affairs recently, and he is really a little tired, the Marquis of Lecheng will accompany the Tazaha envoys for this king, and this king has a moment to rest!" ”
After saying that, Li Yuanji turned around and left, Tazaha's mouth opened, wanting to say something to keep Li Yuanji, but he sadly found that he really didn't have any powerful words to keep Li Yuanji now. You can't say, hey! King Qi, don't go, if you go, I'll let the Tuli Khan kill your crown prince, if he really says this, I'm afraid he must be the first to be threatened.
Tazaha is a smart person and naturally understands, so he can only watch Li Yuanji leave with a sad face.
All this is seen, in Li Haochen's eyes, the reason why he didn't have too many words just now was to silently observe Tazaha's reaction.
At this moment, Li Yuanji had already left the scene, and Li Haochen knew that it was time for him to make his debut, so he smiled at Tazahahaha and said, "Tazaha envoy, how about Benhou accompany you to drink her all night?" You can rest assured that Benhou has a good amount of wine, and he will be able to accompany you! After saying that, there was another burst of laughter.
How could Tazaha be in the mood to drink with Li Haochen at this moment, he was thinking about how he should give an account to the Tuli Khan, he couldn't say that the King of Tang Qi said that he knew, didn't this mean that he came to the Tang camp for nothing this time?
But there is no way, after all, Li Yuanji has already left, and he can only go back to report the truth to the Tuli Khan, and Tazaha, who thinks like this, has lost interest in staying in Tangying again. He arched his hand at Li Haochen and said: "Since the King of Qi has already given a reply to his subordinates, the subordinates want to return to Tuli Khan now, so as not to make the Khan and others anxious." ”
Li Haochen laughed when he heard this, grabbed Tazaha's hand and said: "Tazaha envoy, don't worry, it's not good for you to go back like this now to give a deal to the Tuli Khan, so you can accompany Ben Hou to have a few drinks, Ben Hou will go back with you, Ben Hou and your Khan still have some friendship, Ben Hou promises that after you go back, your Khan will definitely not punish you?" ”
Tazaha was shocked by Li Haochen's words, first shocked, then shocked, and then surprised, Tazaha was shocked that his heart was seen through, and the shock was that he remembered who the Marquis of Lecheng of the Tang Dynasty was, that is, the person who defeated their Turkic army at Weishui Bridge, and the surprise was that if he really took Li Haochen back, the Turki Khan would really not punish him, but would praise him, because he had heard before he came that the emperor of the Tang Dynasty sent Li Haochen to the expeditionary force as a supervisor, and Tazaha knew that the supervisor and the marshal were in the power structure of the Tang Dynasty. But it was evenly divided, and sometimes even the power of the overseer army would exceed that of the marshal. Tazaha, who wanted to understand, said with a smile on his face: "Then Tazaha will thank Hou Ye first, please rest assured that Tazaha will definitely sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman and accompany Hou Ye!" ”
The two returned to the tent, drank a few more glasses, and because each had something on his mind, they hastily ended the feast.
Li Haochen kept his promise and followed Tazaha to the camp of the Tuli Khan, and once again met the Tuli Khan, whom he had not met for a long time.
