Chapter 268: Time Changes

Sure enough, as Li Ke expected, none of the Tuyuhun troops who escaped were spared, and all of them died in the hands of Li Jing and Wei Chigong.

Three days later, Li Jing and Wei Chigong led people back to Yumen Pass, and told Li Ke in detail about the details of the battle.

Finally, Li Jing opened his mouth and said to Li Ke: "Marshal, according to the emperor's explanation, in this Tuyuhun battle, all the spoils belong to the marshal. ”

"This is what Wei Chigong and I got from ambushing the defeated army of Tuyuhun. Now it is at the disposal of the marshal. ”

"Your kid has made a fortune this time, and these tens of thousands of war horses are enough for you to form a cavalry of 10,000 people. And the weapons and armor are complete, which is really a big bargain. Cheng Yanjin said with a laugh.

"Now that the Battle of Tuyuhun is over, you should also return to the DPRK. When I went back, I said a word of honor to my father on behalf of the king. Li Ke said as he handed over the seal of the three armies to Li Jing.

"You're really not going back to Chang'an City?" After Li Jing took the seal of the three armies, he opened his mouth and asked Li Ke.

"If I don't go back, I guess my family should have arrived in the next two days. When the time comes, I will go directly to the Tuyuhun royal court to establish a vassal state. Li Ke sighed and said.

This is Li Daozong on the side who opened his mouth and said: "I shouldn't have intervened in this matter, but since I am here, I can't help but say something." ”

"Imperial nephew, it's a good choice for you not to go back to Chang'an City, but it's a happy place to leave that place. After I succeed in Chang'an, I hope you can return as soon as possible. ”

As soon as Li Daozong's words fell, Cheng Yanjin and Wei Chigong also stood up and said to Li Ke: "We are also waiting in Chang'an City, you kid don't leave us in Chang'an City and ignore us." ”

Li Ke smiled helplessly, and then said to everyone: "Don't worry, none of you will be in the slightest danger." You take this with you, and someone will help you at the critical moment. ”

After Li Ke finished speaking, he took out two more pieces of the ancestral witch order and handed them to Wei Chigong and Li Daozong respectively.

Since Li Ke's defeat in Tuyuhun in the first battle, Li Daozong has been desperate for him. I have long had the heart to repay.

And Li Ke can naturally see it clearly through the system, so he will naturally not be stingy with an ancestral witch order.

……

Early the next morning, Kong Jingrou, Shan Ailian and others arrived at Yumen Pass. After Li Ke connected them to the Yumen Pass, he had already explained to them.

Then he led his own 2,000 blood wolf forbidden army. and the 10,000 cavalry allocated to him by Li Shimin, and left Yumen Pass and Tuguhun left.

This will be the place where Li Ke will show his talents, and here Li Ke will expand his territory and pacify the alien races of Fanbang. Here, Li Ke wanted to develop his own industry and agriculture.

Li Ke did not have any kindness along the way, and for those tribes who rebelled against him, Li Ke adopted an iron-fisted policy.

In the end, it took Li Ke a whole year to finally unify Tuyuhun. And began to build a city in Tuyuhun, ending thousands of years of nomadic life.

This gave the people of Tuyuhun hope that they no longer need to worry about hunger and cold as before. Because Li Ke built houses for them and led them to cultivate the land.

So a title that should have belonged to Li Shimin, but was crowned by the people of Tuyuhun to Li Ke, that is Tian Khan.

……

In the year since Li Ke left, Li Shimin has implemented the rule of Zhenguan even more. So that the entire Tang Dynasty is safe and prosperous.

But someone is secretly plotting that he wants to launch a coup d'état. Abolish the current emperor and set up the crown prince as the emperor, and then achieve the goal of holding the Son of Heaven hostage to order the princes.

This person is none other than Hou Junji, who was imprisoned by Li Ke from Yumen and returned to Chang'an City. After this Hou Junji was escorted back to Chang'an City, Li Shimin remembered that he was the founder of the country, and did not punish him.

It's just that he was punished for two years, but this did not make Hou Junji grateful. On the contrary, he was full of resentment towards Li Shimin.

Next, Li Shimin launched several wars against the Fanbang aliens, and Hou Junji was not reused. And he also felt that Li Shimin was slowly weakening his military power.

This can't help but make Hou Junji feel that Li Shimin is going to be a cunning rabbit and a lackey. Sooner or later, one day, these old ministers with high achievements will become the souls of Li Shimin's subordinates.

So he began to network powerful generals in Chang'an City, and instigated Li Chengqian to stage a coup d'état. In the end, Li Chengqian was shaken in the face of infinite temptation.

After more than ten years of conspiracy, Li Chengqian finally staged a coup d'état in 643 AD. The result was still the same, Hou Junji and others were beheaded by Li Shimin, and Li Chengqian was assassinated in Qianzhou.

Li Tai, who took the opportunity to get the crown prince, was finally accused of deliberately plotting against the enemy. In the end, he was also demoted to the rank of county king.

And Li Zhi, the king of Jin who only knows how to play every day, was made the prince of the Tang Dynasty by Li Shimin in a daze. Of course, this year, Wu Meiniang also entered the palace and was named a talent.

However, Li Shimin's body and mind were severely damaged, and he couldn't accept his son's big knife attack on him. But I thought about it, why didn't I do this to my father.

This couldn't help but make Li Shimin suffer a huge blow, and the whole person seemed to age more than ten years in an instant. Fortunately, because of Li Ke, Empress Changsun did not die, which made Li Shimin somewhat relieved.

In the end, Li Shimin called Li Jing to the Ganlu Hall and talked with him all night. After talking, Li Shimin smiled again.

……

Time is like a white horse crossing the stream, and in the blink of an eye, Li Shimin has reached the limit. And the eldest grandson queen actually died with Li Shimin one day.

This can't help but make the whole country sad, and the whole country wears plain clothes on the streets to guard filial piety for Li Shimin and the eldest grandson.

At this time, the ministers of the court and the central government began to be busy when the new monarch ascended the throne, and the emperor who ascended the throne was naturally Li Zhi, the king of Jin.

"You will ascend the throne and become emperor early tomorrow morning, and from now on you will be the third emperor of the Tang Dynasty. What you have to do is not only to make the world prosperous, but also to secure your throne. The eldest grandson Wuji said bitterly to Li Zhi.

However, Li Zhi had an indifferent expression, and in his heart, no one could threaten his throne at all. And what he wants to do most now is how to get Wu Meiniang back in Ganye Temple.

Seeing Li Zhi's indifferent expression on his face, the eldest grandson Wuji could only sigh helplessly and shake his head. Then he turned around and left the Taiji Palace.

After returning home, he called Chu Suiliang and other old ministers to his home. An all-night conspiracy was carried out.

Therefore, after Li Zhi ascended the throne the next day, he issued an edict to the world. The vassal kings who were ordered to go to Zhaoling to revoke Li Shimin after 100 days.

Moreover, he specially explained that those who refused to come to the book would be punished as a crime of treason.

I am afraid that no one does not know the meaning of this holy decree. How could those princes and princes not understand.
