A cold winter morning.

A cavalry team held high the red Qin flag and marched in the Hehuang Valley, in this beautiful walk, the team was neat.

In the middle of the team, it was Tang Jian, the Qin envoy who sent Tuyuhun this time.

He used to be the minister of Li Tang, but after the fall of the Tang Dynasty, he was attached to Qin, and was awarded the six-rank official of Honglu Temple, from a high-ranking official in a purple robe and jade belt in the past to a petty official in a green robe, which is a huge change. But for Tang Jian, there is nothing to complain about, after all, compared to his previous emperor, Li Yuan, he is still alive, and the family is still preserved, but he has been demoted, but it is nothing.

What's more, his boss also told him that as long as this mission was successful, then promotion and promotion were certain.

Riding a Longyou horse, Tang Jian's heart was also very complicated, not long ago he was running around for Li Tang, but in the blink of an eye, he became a Qin envoy.

However, compared with the previous trip to the Turks, although this trip was also an envoy to the Tibetan State, Tang Jian was much calmer in his heart.

In the past, it was Li Tang and he who had asked for help, and had to call the ministers to pay tribute in exchange for support. But now, Daqin is extremely strong, and he came to Xuanwei Tuyuhun to canonize Tuyuhun Khan.

The knights around him were a team of about 500 horsemen, carrying the emperor's canonization edict, as well as the emperor's seal crown belt to the Khan king Murong Fuyun, as well as some wine, silk and porcelain from the emperor.

The knights in uniform red robes looked very neat and majestic, but Tang Jian clearly knew that these five hundred horsemen were actually from all sides not long ago. Some people used to be the subordinates of Xue Ju, the overlord of Western Qin, and some were the subordinates of Li Liang, the king of Liang, Hexi, and there were even Xiaoguo from Li Tang in Guanzhong, and there were also Turkic cavalry from Hetao, and there were actually very few Qin cavalry from Guandong.

And among those cavalry of the Qin army, there was no loyal cavalry who was the first to follow Luo Cheng.

But no matter who they used to serve, at this time, they all wore the same red military robes, and they all wore the same bronze medal rank on their arms, and their military robes were neat and uniform.

The red flag is fluttering and the morale is high.

"Report!"

The three horsemen galloped over, "Tuyuhun cavalry was found ahead!" ”

Tang Jianle stopped his horse and raised his hand, "It's okay, keep going!" ”

Tuyuhun's cavalry appeared nearby, in twos and threes, accompanied by a shadow, but Tang Jian ignored it, he was confident that the Tuyuhun people would not dare to come and rob them.

Because when they set off, they had already sent home a few Tuyuhun people who had been in Chang'an, and they were the wives and children of Murong Shun, the former prince of Tuyuhun Khan Fu Yun, who stayed in Chang'an.

In that year, Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty sent troops to destroy the Tuyuhun Kingdom and set up four counties such as Xihai in his place, but he was basically unable to control the four counties, and Fu Yun still led the Tuyuhun people to continue to resist the Sui army.

Later, the world was in turmoil, Fu Yun took the opportunity to restore the country, after Li Yuan occupied Guanzhong, he sent someone to return Fu Yun's prince Murong Shun, and canonized Fu Yun as the king of Xiping County, and formed an alliance with him to attack Xue Ju.

However, after Li Tang destroyed Xue Ju, he did not cede the 600-mile river valley to Fu Yun as agreed.

Fu Yun was furious, so he continued to send troops to raid the border after that, and the relationship was bad. When Hexi Li Liang was attached to the Qin Dynasty, Li Yuan wanted to form an alliance with Fu Yun to crusade, but this time Fu Yun refused to pay attention to it. In the process of attacking Longxi and pacifying Guanzhong, Fu Yun has been standing still and has given a lot of convenience.

The team keeps moving forward.

When they were about to arrive at Qinghai Lake, they finally came to meet and greet them.

The former prince Murong Shun, who came to greet Tuyuhun in person, captured him to Chang'an after the Sui defeated Tuyuhun, and was always taken by Yang Guang by his side, and almost became a wine companion with Chuluo Khan.

After the change of Jiangdu, he returned to Chang'an from Jiangdu and Li Yuan all the way back to Chang'an, just like Chu Luo.

Just waited for him to return to Qinghai from Chang'an happily, but found that his father had already set up his younger brother Murong Ke as the new crown prince.

Murong Shun, who returned to Qinghai, was extremely disappointed, but he was helpless.

At this time, he personally came to greet the envoy of the Central Plains, and when he saw Tang Jian, an acquaintance, he felt a sense of intimacy.

"The general has already seen his wife and concubines?" Tang Jian asked.

Murong Shun is tall and rugged, although he has been in the Central Plains for many years, he is a little more elegant.

"Thank you, Your Majesty Emperor Qin, for returning my wife, concubines, and children, they arrived safely all the way, and they are all fine."

Tang Jian took his hand, "What is the situation in Qinghai now?" ”

Murong Shun sighed and said, "It's not a secret, my father is old and mediocre, and now everyone in the country listens to the Heavenly Pillar King, I'm very worried." ”

He told Tang Jian that King Tianzhu, the minister of power, had recently persuaded the Great Khan Fu Yun to ask Daqin to marry the princess for the crown prince Murong Ke, and asked Daqin to reward the Hehuang Valley to Tuyuhun.

"It's impossible." Tang Jian shook his head, "Emperor Qin is not the King of Tang, there is no room for bargaining, and it is impossible to make peace with relatives, because Emperor Qin has long made a precept that if you don't make peace with your relatives, you won't be a minister, you won't pay tribute." ”

With Murong Shun accompanying him all the way, Tang Jian knew about Tuyuhun's current situation in China.

After the Sui Rebellion, Tuyuhun restored the country, but the national strength was also greatly reduced, especially after Li Yuan sent Murong Shun back to China, which made Tuyuhun even more complicated. When Yang Guang destroyed the Tuyuhun Kingdom, he once established Murong Shun as the new Khan King and took him with him.

Therefore, Murong Fuyun had already set up his second son to respect the king as the crown prince, and now that Murong Shun is back, the relationship between the two brothers is tense, Fu Yun is old, and he has become mediocre, and he has let the powerful minister Tianzhu King control the state affairs everywhere, which has made the situation even more complicated.

After Murong Shun came back, he was restricted everywhere and was excluded by his brothers, and he also wanted to take this opportunity to get in touch with the Central Plains and take advantage of his strength to regain the position of the crown prince or even the king of Khan.

Qinghai Lakeside.

Castle of Kings.

Tang Jian read the edict of the Great Qin Emperor to the Khan Murong Fuyun in front of a group of Tuyuhun nobles.

"Canonize Murong Fuyun as the king of Xihai County, the governor of Xihai County, and the Taishou."

"Canonized Murong Shun as the king of Heyuan County, the governor of Heyuan County, and the Taishou."

"Canonize Murong Shi'an as the king of the last county, the governor of the last county, and the taishou."

"Canonized Murong Ke as the king of Shanshan County, the governor of Shanshan County, and the Taishou."

As soon as this canonization edict came out, Murong Fuyun, Tuyuhun Khan, who was originally leaning on the beauty, was immediately stunned, how could he still canonize the four county kings, how could he, the Great Khan, only be a county king?

That's not right.

Murong Shun and Murong Ke are both his sons, and Murong Shi'an is his brother, how can he be crowned king?

Fu Yun's face was very ugly, before his father died, he passed the throne to his brother Shi Fu, Shi Fu married Princess Sui Guanghua as his wife, and later Shi Fu died, Fu Yun succeeded to the throne, and married Princess Guanghua, and gave birth to Murong Shun.

"I am the Great Khan of Tuyuhun, the commander of the Xianbei Murong Tuyuhun tribes, the leader of the Qiang tribes, and the possession of these three thousand miles of rivers and mountains, how can Emperor Qin insult me like this?"

Murong Ke was also furious, this Qin people wanted to divide them into the Tuyuhun Kingdom? Then once his father died, wouldn't he only inherit half of the Tuyuhun Kingdom?

"Do the Qin people want to go to war?"

On top of the banquet, the trouble broke up unhappily.

That night, in the middle of the night, when the third watch, Fu Qi City suddenly broke out, and the fire soared into the sky.

Murong Shun led his subordinates to unite with Tang Jian's delegation of 500 knights, and suddenly attacked, killing his brother Murong Fuyun's Khan Palace, under the banner of killing the Tianzhu King on the side of the Qing monarch.

After dawn, Murong Shun took control of the Khan Palace, and then took over the control of Fu Qi City.

"Murong Ke ran away, Murong Shi'an also ran away, and many nobles also ran away."

"What about the Heavenly Pillar King?"

"Ran away, too."

Murong Shun sat in his father's Khan Palace, listening to this news, his face sank like water. The three most critical people are gone.

"What should I do?" Murong Shun asked Tang Jian.

Tang Jian looked at Fu Yun lying in the hall, last night was in chaos, Fu Ji saw Murong Shun breaking into the palace with a bloody sword, and he suffered a stroke and collapsed in anger.

"Please ask the county king to announce the funeral news of Fuyun Great Khan, and at the same time send troops to hunt down Murong Ke, Murong Shi'an and King Tianzhu."

"Please Tang Gong stay and help me!" Murong Shun looked at Tang Jian expectantly, last night's turmoil was a plan that he had discussed for a long time on the way to greet Tang Jian. It's just that I didn't expect that the plan was not executed perfectly, and several key guys all ran away.
