When the Western Turkic Emperor Yehu Khan heard the news that his son Ashnanur had died at the hands of the cavalry of the Xueyantuo Khanate, he was furious and summoned all the nobles of the Western Turkic Khanate.

"Everyone, my son, Prince Ashnanur was killed in the Xueyanta Khanate, what should I do? What to do? Tongye Hu Khan roared, shouting to all the nobles present:

"Your Majesty the Khan, is this true?"

"Call in Prince Ashnanur's retinue!" Tongye Hu Khan let the living person come to the big tent, and Ashina Mohelu saw that person and sneered in his heart - a few days ago, Ashina Mohelu received a secret letter sent by Yantuo Dudu, which contained the scene of Ashina Nuer's death that day. A few days ago, Ashina Nuer led his personal guards to disguise themselves as a caravan from the Western Regions and headed to the Central Plains.

When they arrived at the boundary of the Xueyantuo Khanate, groups of beggars surrounded Ashina Nuer and others, begging from Ashina Nuer and others. Ashnanur looked at the herdsmen around him who were begging for him. Haha laughed.

"Hahaha! You see, the scene of Xue Yantuo is really bleak compared to our Western Turks! The cavalry guarding Ashina Nuer around him was on guard while answering Ashina Nuer's question:

"Your Royal Highness! Because the Xue Yantuo Khanate wanted to sacrifice cattle, sheep, camels, horses and other livestock to Li Tangjin, and looted everywhere, the tribal subjects of the Xue Yantuo Khanate lived very poorly, and there were begging people everywhere! ”

"Humph! Xue Yantuo's Yi Nan is fooling around like this, and it is a matter of time before the Xue Yantuo Khanate will fall. Hahahaha! Ashina Nuer smiled presumptuously, and the surrounding cavalry secretly reminded Ashina Nuer:

"Your Royal Highness! After all, this is the territory of the Xueyanta Khanate, and the Xueyanta Khanate is a mortal enemy of our western Turks! Your Royal Highness the Prince must be careful! ”

"Hey! Afraid of what? Our current identity is a merchant who came from the Western Regions to Chang'an to do business, and we are not Western Turks. What is there to worry about. Besides, are there branches hanging from your loins? Afraid of what? The Turkic soldier stopped talking. However, I always felt that something was going to happen. However, Ashina Nuer is a prince, and there is a huge disparity between his status and Ashina Nuer, so it's hard to say anything?

"Who are you?" A patrol group of soldiers of the Xueyanta Khanate blocked the way of Ashina Nur and the others.

"Oh! We are merchants from the Western Regions. I went to Chang'an in the Central Plains to do business! These are our goods! The leading Turkic soldier immediately stepped forward and replied. The soldiers of the Xueyanta Khanate approached them and surrounded them, but Prince Ashnanur did not notice anything, but the leading Turkic soldiers slowly noticed that something was wrong, and motioned to the Turkic soldiers in the caravan to put their hands on their sabers. I came to Ashina Nuer's side. Xue Yantuo's soldiers looked at the caravan's goods, and then at the caravan's people. Suddenly shouted to Prince Ashnanur:

"Prince Ashnanur of the Western Turks, it's been a long time." The cavalry of the Western Turks, disguised as caravans, immediately shouted:

"Protect Your Highness the Prince! ...... "The Western Turkic cavalry surrounded Prince Ashina Nur and his party, and directly moved with Ashina Nuer. And Ashina Nuer's personal guards are not mediocre, and they are not inferior at all against this group of Xue Yantuo cavalry. However, due to the relatively small number of men, the leading Western Turkic cavalry immediately shouted:

"Quick! Mi Shule, cover the breakthrough of His Royal Highness the Prince! Suddenly, the leading Western Turkic cavalry heard Ashinunur's screams, and the leading Western Turkic cavalry looked back and saw a dagger stuck in Ashinanur's waist.

"Your Royal Highness, Mishule, you!" Immediately, there was an extra sharp knife on his chest, and before he fell, his eyes were full of dryness. The man named Mishule saluted the cavalry of Xue Yantuo and said:

"Ladies and gentlemen, are you sent by Elder Yantuo Dudu to pick me up?" Xue Yantuo's cavalry nodded. Later, in the tent of Yantuo Dudu, Yantuo Dudu saw the man:

"You are the undercover agent sent by Ashina Mohedu!"

"Yes! When the slave was nine years old, he was sent to Ashina Nuer by Lord Ashina Mohedu. It's been ten years since I've been with Ashina Nuer. ”

"Huh! A spy has been by Ashina Nuer's side for ten years, but he was not discovered by Ashina Nuer, nor was he co-opted by Ashina Nuer, it seems that this Ashina Nuer died unjustly! Ashina Mohe sneered in his heart, and the Tongye Hu Khan was still there shouting frantically.

"My son, my son died in the Khanate of Xueyanta, my son died in the Khanate of Xueyanta! My son has died in the Khanate of Xueyanta! You must be very happy, right? You must be very happy, right? ……” Ashina Mohelu heard the voice of Tongye Hu Khan, and he lost his original calmness, and his actions were frivolous. It can be seen that Tongye Hu Khan is in a trance because of Ashina Nuer's death, and Ashina Mohelu is ready to add a fire. immediately pretended to be sad and knelt in front of the Tongye Protector Khan:

"His Majesty the Khan, the minions implore His Majesty the Khan to send troops to attack the Xueyantuo Khanate and avenge Prince Ashnanur!" The Khan of the Blade Protector was already crazy in his heart.

"Well said, march! It just so happened that Xue Yantuo was now seriously injured, and sent troops to me to attack Xue Yantuo! Dispatch troops! The Western Turkic nobles present immediately said yes. After Ashina Mohedu returned to his camp, he immediately found his son, Ashina Demon Demon.

"Demons! You immediately go to Xue Yantuo in person and tell Yantuo Dudu that in about ten days, our western Turkic army will attack Xue Yantuo and let them defend it well! "After Ashina Demon left, Ashina Mohe immediately called himself ill and said to Tongye Hu Khan that he was old and that he was sick and did not participate in this operation. A new conspiracy has struck from Xinxiang to Xue Yantuo and the Western Turks in the steppe.

Chang'an, Taiji Palace. A secret letter from the Xueyantuo Khanate came to Li Jiancheng's desk.

"Your Majesty! In the first month of the eighth year of Yongshuo of the Tang Dynasty, the Western Turkic Khan sent his son Ashinu Nuer with gifts to Chang'an to pay tribute, but he passed through the border of Xue Yantuo and was ambushed and died. Subsequently, the Western Turkic Emperor Yehu Khan led his troops to avenge the murder of his son, but was ambushed by the prince of Xue Yantuo Tuli, it is reported that the Emperor Yehu Khan was seriously injured, and his life and death are unknown. The minister Chu Suiliang knelt and played. After Li Jiancheng saw Chu Suiliang's twists and turns, he immediately called Di Renjie, the commander of the Qilin secret guard, Xiao Yu, Feng Deyi, Du Ruhui, the secretary of the military department, Xuanling, the secretary of the department, Wei Zheng, the imperial historian, and Xu Jingzong, the commander of the Zhongshu.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is a secret performance sent by Chu Suiliang from the Xue Yantuo Khanate! Check it out, everybody! After Li Jiancheng handed Chu Suiliang's recital to these cronies and advisers:

"Ladies and gentlemen, now that the dispute between the Western Turks and the Xueyanta Khanate has begun, I feel that I can once again meddle in the affairs of the steppe. It's just that I have a mind now, and that is to ......" Li Jiancheng now likes to say a sentence and break a sentence, so that his cronies and ministers can guess his thoughts. In this way, Li Jiancheng felt an unprecedented authority. Di Renjie, Xiao Yu, Feng Deyi, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Xu Jingzong and other advisers are all speculating about Li Jiancheng's thoughts. Xu Jingzong's eyes rolled, and he first said:

"Your Majesty! The minister's letter ordered Xu Jingzong to think about His Majesty's mind, if the minister's guess is wrong, please don't condemn Your Majesty! Li Jiancheng smiled:

"Yan Clanqing! Just say it! I forgive you for your innocence! ”

"Your Majesty's mind is on the prince who stayed in our Chang'an, Your Majesty, is the minister right?" Li Jiancheng nodded—Lu Mang still didn't know about Xue Yantuo's conflict with the Western Turks. And the most important thing is that the leader of the Hui Hui Tumidu has already revealed an independent mind, which proves that Tumidu does not want to go back. And the best result for Prince Lu Mang not to go back is to die in Chang'an, this is the subtext of Tu Midu's secret, but Lu Mang is a chess piece that Li Jiancheng once again aroused Xue Yantuo and the grassland civil strife when the time comes, and he died, Li Jiancheng felt pity, but how can he justifiably leave Lu Mang in Chang'an? Xu Jingzong looked at Li Jiancheng, while Xiao Yu, Feng Deyi, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, and Di Renjie were also looking at Xu Jingzong. Xu Jingzong smiled and said to Li Jiancheng:

"Your Majesty, this matter is not difficult, you only need to do two steps, the first step is to hide this news secretly, and don't let the prince who is in Chang'an know the slightest. In addition, the second and most important step is to ...... "Xu Jingzong raised his head:

"Your Majesty has been on the throne for eight years! However, in His Majesty's harem, there are only Queen Niangniang, Guifei Yang Niangniang, Concubine Cao Niangniang, and Zhaoyi Ashina Niangniang. There are only a few princes such as Chengdao, Chenglu, Chengxun, Chengtong, etc., Your Majesty's royal blood is not strong, and the ministers are also worried! Since the second year of Yongshuo, the minister has been asking His Majesty for his life, so that His Majesty can enrich the harem and reproduce more royal heirs. However, His Majesty always excused himself on the grounds that there were many things in the DPRK and China, and the foreign enemy was not appeased, and after the Eastern Turks perished, the ministers made suggestions to His Majesty, and His Majesty refused to accept them in the name of the emptiness of the treasury. Now, the minister once again made a proposal to His Majesty, asking His Majesty to widely select the colorful girl Jiao'e, order the court and the people to run for the election, and enter the palace to wait for Your Majesty, so as to ensure the prosperity of the royal heirs! Moreover, as long as Your Majesty marries, when the time comes, the center of gravity of the imperial court will definitely be close to Your Majesty, who will take care of the affairs of foreign clans, even if Lu Mang hears the news of Xue Yantuo, he will just shirk it in the name of His Majesty's Nacai Girl! As soon as Xu Jingzong said, Xiao Yu, Feng Deyi, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, and Wei Zheng immediately knelt down and persuaded Li Jiancheng:

"Please give an order to your Majesty, recruit the world's colorful girls Jiao'e, and enter the palace to wait for Your Majesty! Add a son to the royal family! After listening to the words of the ministers, Li Jiancheng nodded.
