Chapter 199: The above table is called a minister

When Zhang Yunwen woke up, he found that the Turkic girl who was lying next to him had disappeared.

Put on his leather boots and was about to go out, when the curtain of the door opened, and a man entered the yurt with a wooden basin. It was the Turkic girl.

Probably because she couldn't speak Chinese, the girl didn't talk to Zhang Yunwen, but made a washing gesture and pointed to the wooden basin. Zhang Yunwen immediately understood what the girl meant.

After washing, Zhang Yunwen went out of the yurt room, and at this time, I saw that the door curtain of the yurt where Li Daoxuan rested last night was also opened, and Li Daoxuan, who was refreshed, came out slowly.

As soon as he saw Zhang Yunwen, Li Daoxuan let out a weird laugh of "hehe", and gently bumped Zhang Yunwen on the shoulder: "What's the matter, the Turkic woman feels good, right?" ”

Zhang Yunwen shook his head.

"No, your taste is so high! You can't be so energetic as a Turkic woman? Li Daoxuan looked surprised, "I was scratched on the back by her last night!" That feeling, tsk, is so fucking exciting! ”

"It's not that I don't think Turkic women are good, but I didn't touch her at all!" Zhang Yunwen explained.

"Uh, sister-in-law, do you have anything unspeakable?" Li Daoxuan looked at Zhang Yunwen's lower body with a strange expression.

Seeing Li Daoxuan's appearance like this, Zhang Yunwen suddenly said angrily: "What are you talking about, do you think I look like that kind of person?" ”

Li Daoxuan shook his head: "Since it's not, then why is the beauty still unmoved?" Could it be that you are the reincarnation of Megumi Yanagishita? ”

Zhang Yunwen was afraid that he would be entangled again, so he hurriedly said: "Aren't I afraid to be sorry for Yu'er and Rou'er!" Besides, what if you accidentally left a seed behind during the night? Do you still want to bring this girl back? ”

Li Daoxuan smiled "hehe", his face was full of obscenity: "It doesn't matter!" Don't worry about this at all! ”

When Zhang Yunwen heard this, he immediately rolled his eyes.

After breakfast, the two of them went to the mission first, only to see that although the living conditions of the accompanying soldiers and those officials of the Ministry of Rites were worse than their own, they were also four people in a yurt room, and when they first arrived outside this yurt, they were discovered by the vigilant soldiers. Zhang Yunwen patted the heavily armed soldier on the shoulder, meaning to say: You have done a good job!

After the inspection, Zhang Yunwen asked the soldiers to strengthen their vigilance. And Li Daoxuan whispered with several officials of the Ministry of Rites, and then led them outside. Zhang Yunwen followed.

"Brother Daoxuan, today is going to discuss 'business', Brother Daoxuan has to come on!" Zhang Yunwen said to Li Daoxuan with a smile.

Li Daoxuan said with some indignation: "What Lao Tzu doesn't like to do the most is this kind of thing, smiling on the surface, stabbing each other secretly, it's!" ”

Zhang Yunwen, who knew Li Daoxuan's temper, couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Brother Daoxuan, you are a righteous envoy, even if you don't like it anymore, you have to talk about it!" Do you still have to count on me? ”

Li Daoxuan also stopped talking, and walked in the direction of the big tent with a calm face.

As soon as he arrived at the big tent, Li Daoxuan's originally calm face suddenly appeared with a spring-like smile. Zhang Yunwen couldn't help but sigh, although Li Daoxuan hated doing such hypocritical things, but after all, he was born in the royal family, and he was almost born with this kind of hypocritical ability.

Entering the big tent, Li Daoxuan, Zhang Yunwen and all the officials of the Ministry of Rites had warm smiles on their faces, and saluted Jieli: "The envoy of the Tang Dynasty has seen Jieli Khan!" ”

Jieli smiled "hehe": "The two noble envoys are polite!" Come, sit, please! ”

After everyone sat down, Jie Li asked with a smile, "I wonder if the two envoys were satisfied with last night's arrangement?" ”

Li Daoxuan and Zhang Yunwen glanced at each other, and at the same time showed a smile that all men understand: "Satisfied, satisfied, very satisfied!" ”

Jieli suddenly laughed loudly: "Okay, since the two noble envoys are satisfied, then Ben Khan is relieved!" I think of the Turkic Tang Dynasty, which is a friendly neighbor, and the Tang noble envoy is here, so he naturally wants to entertain him well! ”

Li Daoxuan clenched his fists and smiled: "The Great Khan is too polite!" ”

I only heard Jieli Khan say again: "I think that at the beginning, when Ben Khan went to Weishui, His Majesty the Tang Emperor rode out of the battle alone, and in a few words, Ben Khan was subdued, so as to sign this peace covenant." As soon as the covenant was signed, it would be three years in the blink of an eye! ”

Li Daoxuan and Zhang Yunwen remembered that Jieli led an army of 200,000 to attack Gyeonggi and signed an alliance under the city on Weishui, and then the Turks repeated several times, invading the Central Plains every year, plundering countless people and goods, and they couldn't help but feel angry.

Li Daoxuan immediately sneered and said, "If you can sign the Weishui Covenant, it still depends on the help of the 200,000 cavalry of the Great Khan!" ”

Jieli smiled disappreliantly: "Yes, when the Tang Dynasty was first established, it was the military appearance. Ben Khan saw the Tang Dynasty soldiers riding out on the edge of Weishui, and they were really like tigers and horses like dragons. So Ben Khan naturally has to bring more warriors! ”

Li Daoxuan snorted lightly, turned his head, and no longer looked at Jieli.

In the face of Li Daoxuan's somewhat impolite behavior, Jieli still smiled and said: "Your honor, Ben Khan has decided to declare himself a minister to the Tang Dynasty and be the northern frontier of the Tang Dynasty. Please also ask your envoy to convey the goodwill of Ben Khan to His Majesty the Tang Dynasty! ”

When Li Daoxuan heard this, he was stunned at first, and then he was happy, and a smile that couldn't be concealed suddenly appeared on his face.

However, at this time, Zhang Yunwen said coldly: "Didn't the Turks also be a subordinate of the Great Sui before?" As a result, when Emperor Yang patrolled Yanmen, how did the Turks surround Yanmen? Oh, by the way, the Khan of that time was the Great Khan! ”

Jieli Khan's smile suddenly froze, and Li Daoxuan slowly frowned when he heard this.

Zhang Yunwen said again: "Since the Great Khan wants to accept the table as a minister, and wants my Emperor His Majesty, he will definitely accept the Great Khan!" However, if the Great Khan wants to serve me in the northern frontier of the Tang Dynasty, at least show some sincerity! ”

Hearing Zhang Yunwen's words, Jieli was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Hehe, don't worry, the things that Ben Khan paid to Datang will be very rich!" When the envoy leaves, Ben Khan will also send a rich gift to the envoy! ”

Hearing this, Zhang Yunwen smiled slightly: "Since this is the case, then the lower officials will thank the Great Khan!" ”

Jieli laughed twice, but stopped talking.

Then Jie Liyou and Li Daoxuan chatted about other topics. In the end, Zhang Yunwen and Li Daoxuan got up to say goodbye and went out of the big tent.

"Yunwen, why did you suddenly ask Jieli for money just now?" Out of the big tent and came to a secluded place, Li Daoxuan couldn't help asking.

Zhang Yunwen's face suddenly sank: "Brother Daoxuan, next year Your Majesty will go to the Turks, at this time, Jieli is a minister, it is obviously a plan to delay the army, you won't be unexpected!" ”

Li Daoxuan nodded: "At the beginning, Jieli said that he wanted to be a minister, and I was secretly happy, but when I thought about it, this must be Jieli's plan to delay the army, one is to delay time, and the other is not to give Datang an excuse to start a war." Am I right? ”

Zhang Yunwen frowned and said, "That's true." This is a cunning and cunning man, but it's really powerful! Saying that, he snorted coldly, "Just by virtue of being a minister, he wants Datang to let him go, it's really wishful thinking!" I asked him for money, first, to make him despise us, second, to make him feel that the affairs of the ministers were smoother, and third, brother, I have been short of money recently! When Li Daoxuan heard the third reason, he couldn't help but smile dumbly.

After pondering for a while, Zhang Yunwen said to Li Daoxuan: "Brother Li, let's leave the Turks as soon as possible, go to Mobei, and give a name to the Yi Nan who wants to be a Great Khan and has no name!" Then I have my own way to deal with Jieli! ”

Li Daoxuan said "um": "Okay!" Tomorrow we will leave for Mobei, and before leaving, Lao Tzu made it clear to him that he would pardon Yi Nan and see how Jieli's expression was! ”

Zhang Yunwen smiled: "That expression must be very ugly!" By the way, Brother Daoxuan, I have to meet someone before leaving, would you like to go with me? ”

"Who? How did I not know that you knew people in the Turks? ”

"Zhao Deyan!"

"Uh, that Zhao Deyan who is said to have been kicked out of Chang'an by you?"

Zhang Yunwen nodded.

In a dark yurt room, Zhao Deyan sat on one side with a black robe, and Zhang Yunwen and Li Daoxuan sat on the other side.

"I don't know what it is important for adults to see humble positions?" Zhao Deyan asked straight to the point, "On this side of the tooth tent, there are many ears and eyes, if it is seen, I am afraid that something is wrong!" ”

Zhang Yunwen also said directly: "I won't say much gossip!" This is the King of Huaiyang, you must already know it! This time, Jieli wants to present a table to Datang, you can help urge him, and let Jieli leave as soon as I leave. This official didn't want to go on the road with the Turkic envoys when he came back from Mobei. Also, send me this letter back to Chang'an! ”

Zhao Deyan took the letter and frowned: "My lord, I take the liberty of asking, why do you want to urge the Great Khan to act early?" Could it be that the adults have a plan? But since the Great Khan has already been declared a minister, why is there still a plot against him? ”

Zhang Yunwen sneered and said softly: "Zhao Deyan, it seems that you have been in the Turks for a long time, and you have developed feelings for Jieli, and you have a 'big sweat', and you know that you have pleaded for Jieli!" As he spoke, his voice changed suddenly, and he said sharply: "Zhao Deyan, you remember for me that this Turk is doomed to perish, if you can always cooperate with me, after you return to Beijing, I and the King of Huaiyang will promote you to enter the center at the same time." If you have other thoughts, think about Chang'an's wife and children, and think about your own situation! This official is not a soft-hearted character! ”

Li Daoxuan on the side grinned cooperatively.

Although it was a cold and windy winter, Zhao Deyan still had a little cold sweat on his forehead. I saw him nod and say nothing.

Zhang Yunwen and Li Daoxuan glanced at each other, got up and went out.

In the dim yurt, only the expressionless Zhao Deyan was left.

After staying in the Turkic tent for a day, Li Daoxuan, Zhang Yunwen and the soldiers rested for a while, and replenished their daily necessities, of course, mostly dried meat, cheese, and a few large cowhide bags of water per person.

"Yunwen, do you think we should find a guide?" Seeing that the preparations were complete, Li Daoxuan couldn't help asking.

After a deep groan, Zhang Yunwen nodded: "Okay, but not one, but three!" Let's find Jieli to go! ”

Li Daoxuan was taken aback: "Why don't you look for Zhao Deyan, you want to find Jieli?" Aren't you afraid that the guide has two hearts? ”

Zhang Yunwen smiled slightly: "Even if he has two hearts, can he still make waves in our hands!" And I need more than one guide! ”

Li Daoxuan immediately understood what he meant, patted his shoulder, and smiled.
