Chapter 321: Dispose of the Nose Khan
"Hello everyone! The right Xiaowei Zhonglang will be Gao Kan, escorting the Chebi Khan Ashina Hubo, who has already entered Chang'an City! Wang Quan reported to Li Chengqian.
"Good!" Li Chengqian was overjoyed when he heard this: "Wang Quan, you personally go to the gate of the palace to greet Gao Kan and the others, and bring them to see me." ”
"No!" Wang Quan was ordered to retreat.
The Chebi Khan Ashina Hubo was captured, and the Turks returned to the Tang Dynasty, and from then on, the Turks were the subjects in the Tang fiefdom.
The hidden danger of the Turks in the northwest region has also been completely solved, which has greatly improved the security of the northwest frontier defense, and without the support of the Turks, some small countries will not have the confidence to provoke the Tang Dynasty.
Without confidence, they can only accept the management honestly, and it is much more convenient to manage these barbarians!
Wang Quan followed Li Chengqian's order and waited outside the Chengtian Gate, and Gao Kan and the others would appear here as soon as possible.
Not long after Wang Quan arrived at Chengtianmen, the figures of Gao Kan and others appeared in front of him.
Gao Kan and the others dismounted in front of Chengtian Gate and came to Wang Quan, Gao Kan hugged his fists and saluted, "Wang Nei Shicheng, I haven't seen you for a long time!" ”
"Blessed by Zhonglang, very good! Your Majesty has been waiting for General Zhonglang for a long time, and General Zhonglang should hurry up and follow me to meet Your Majesty! Wang Quan said.
"The king's servants, please! The two of us will go with you to see Your Majesty! Gao Kan said. Flash Dance
"This is the Western Turkic Khan Ashina Hubo?" Wang Quan looked at the tall and mighty man dressed as a Turkic nobleman standing beside Gao Kan and asked.
"That's right! He said that he would come to Beijing in person to face the saint, but later changed his mind and killed the Chebi Khan Ashina Hubo of the first emperor's envoy. Gao Kan nodded.
"Come with me, don't make Your Majesty wait!" Wang Quan turned around and walked towards the palace with a sentence.
Gao Kan and the others hurriedly followed behind Wang Quan and walked through the palace gate to meet the emperor.
Except for Gao Kan and Chebi Khan, Gao Kan's guards were not allowed to enter the Ouchi at will, and the task of escorting Chebi Khan naturally fell into the hands of Jin Wuwei.
Jin Wuwei, who wore a helmet and armor and held a sword, escorted the Chebi Khan to follow Wang Quan to meet the emperor.
"Everyone! Gao Kan and the Chenose Khan Ashina Hubo brought! Wang Quan reported to Li Chengqian.
"Chen Gaokan greets Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!" Gao Kan saluted and worshipped.
"Ashina Hubo sees the Tang Emperor, and may the Tang Emperor live forever." Ashina Hubo saluted.
Although he was unwilling to salute Li Chengqian, the new emperor of the empire, in the land of the Tang Dynasty, in the emperor's palace, he had to salute.
People have to bow their heads under the eaves. 35xs
"Excuse me! Flat! Wang Quan gives the seat! Li Chengqian said.
"No!" Wang Quan responded and instructed the eunuchs to bring stools for Gao Kan and Ashina Hubo to sit on.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Gao Kan and Chenose Khan thanked him and sat on the stool next to him.
The maid of the palace rushed in and brought a cup of tea to each of them.
"Ashina Hubo, as a Western Turkic Khan, you were originally a subordinate of my Tang Dynasty, but you have repeatedly offended my Tang Dynasty border defense."
"Disrupted the Anxi Protectorate to govern the Western Regions, and even did not hesitate to provoke Qiuci and Yanqi to become enemies with the Tang Dynasty."
"Ashina Hubo, are you guilty?" Li Chengqian did not praise Gao Kan's exploits first, but questioned Ashina Hu Boxingshi.
From the moment he came in, Li Chengqian had already seen that Ashina Hubo did not take him as the emperor in his eyes.
On his own territory, how could Ashina Hubo be so rude, Li Chengqian planned to give him a dismount first to extinguish his arrogance.
The Jinwuwei soldiers above the main hall have already pressed their hands on the hilt of the sword, and the saber has been slowly unsheathed.
Looking at the Mo knife that had slowly surrounded him and slowly unsheathed, a ray of cold light flashed on the knife, Ashina Hubo knew that if his answer did not satisfy the emperor, he would really return to the Immortal Heaven today.
"Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, I, Ashina Hubo, am guilty and willing to accept the punishment of His Majesty the Emperor." Ashina Hubo knelt down very barely, prostrate on the ground, his forehead pressed against the ground, and his buttocks pouted high.
"Now that you know your mistakes, it stands to reason that I should have ordered someone to drag you out and behead you, so as to comfort the souls of the soldiers who died on the battlefield."
"However, I read that you Ashina Hubo has a sincere attitude of admitting mistakes, and that you have the virtue of a good life in God, and my Tang Dynasty is a state of etiquette, and I really can't kill an unarmed prisoner."
"I have decided to pardon your crimes, and not only that, but I will also give you an official title and worship you as General Zuo Wuwei, and you will stay in Chang'an from now on." Li Chengqian said.
The position of general given to Ashina Hubo is just a fictitious position, with no actual rights, just giving him the title of general.
In fact, Ashina Hubo is placed under house arrest in Chang'an, as long as Ashina Hubo stays in Chang'an, he doesn't have to worry about what tricks he will play.
However, in addition to having no real power, there are still some other benefits, such as the general's mansion where Ashina Hubo lives, as well as the supporting slaves and maids, etc., and the monthly salary is paid to him on time.
"Thank you, Your Majesty the Emperor!" Ashina Hubo kowtowed and thanked him.
"Wang Quan, first take General Ashina Hubo down to rest, the general has been in the dust all the way, and he must be tired!" Li Chengqian said to Wang Quan.
"No!" Wang Quan took the order, came to Ashina Hubo and said, "General Zuo Wuwei, please come with me, and I will take you to rest." ”
After Ashina Hubo saluted Li Chengqian, he followed Wang Quan out of the main hall, and as for the residence, Wang Quan would arrange it for him.
After dealing with the problem of Ashina Hubo, and also showing the magnanimity of the emperor of the Tang Empire, the next step was naturally to reward Gao Kan, a meritorious hero.
"Gao Qing, this time I was able to pacify the Turks and capture the Chebi Khan, which is really indispensable!" Li Chengqian praised Gao Kan a lot, and they were all the same.
In terms of praising others in words, Li Chengqian has never been stingy.
"These are all things within the minister's share, eat the king's fortune, and worry about the king! This minister is also duty! ”
"This time, I was able to pacify the Turks and capture the Chebi Khan, all of which were fought bloodily by the soldiers, so the ministers did not dare to take credit, and asked Your Majesty to reward the three armies."
"Let the soldiers of the three armies be able to bathe in the emperor's grace!" Gao Kan said that without the bloody battles of the soldiers, he would not have been able to pacify the Turks so quickly.
If he didn't have the Tang Dynasty as his backing, he wouldn't be able to pacify the Turks in the shortest possible time and in the most peaceful and simple way.
The credit is not for him alone, but for all the Tang people.
Li Chengqian is very satisfied with Gao Kan, Gao Kan is not proud of his achievements, but he can ask for credit for the soldiers under his command, which is really rare.
