Volume 2 Sui Yang's Ascension to the Throne Chapter 95 The Siege of Yanmen (4)
"I don't know what Lord Li is doing here?"
"Your Majesty is besieged, and I hereby invite the princess to read the love of flesh and blood and help the emperor solve the difficulty."
"What is the matter with Yang Guang being besieged by me, as the saying goes, the daughter who marries out spills the water, the woman takes her husband's family as the sky after she marries, and he is surrounded by my husband is his calamity, what is the matter with me, besides, dare to ask the envoy, where is my father, where is my brothers? Go back and tell Yang Guang that he quickly agreed to my husband's conditions and sent some gold and silver treasures, otherwise I would not be able to make his emperor. After listening to Princess Anyi's words, Li Jiancheng only had a wry smile in his heart, back then, although Prince Teng temporarily saved his life and throne by means of dedicating his daughter's meritorious service, but after Yang Guang ascended the throne, with the death of Yang Su, and Yang Xuangan's rebellion caused the death of a large number of Sui and Yang clans, which made Prince Teng worry all day long, and finally died of depression, and several of his sons were also exiled by Yang Guang for various crimes and died in exile. As a traverser, Li Jiancheng knows that he can't be persuaded by the righteousness of the Spring and Autumn Period, the life and death of the people, history is written by some idealistic people, they give their women to robbers and humiliate, but they call it harmonious and pro, without taking into account the feelings of these girls, so that they are tortured in a unaccompanied environment, but they are still praised in the history books, thinking of this, Li Jiancheng can only shake his head and smile bitterly.
"Princess! Can you answer a question from your subordinates? ”
"Good! Lee, please speak. ”
"The princess thinks that who killed the daughter princess of the previous dynasty?"
"Naturally, the Turkic barbarians and my uncle murdered together. Is there any doubt about this? ”
"It's right for the princess to return to nature, but has the princess ever thought about it, why was the daughter of the previous dynasty killed?" When asked this question, the expression on Princess Anyi's face was cloudy. A constant struggle in the heart. Li Jiancheng saw it in his heart and knew that his words were starting to work.
"Princess, in fact, the reason why she killed the daughter of the former dynasty is that she has no power from her mother's family, whether in the court or among the people, there is a saying that no matter how far her daughter marries, how good it is, if there is no support from her mother's power, it will be like a leaf falling from a tree, and when the time comes, she will have no support, so she will have to turn into dust." Princess Anyi bowed her head and was silent when she heard this. Li Jiancheng added fuel to the fire.
"Of course, the emperor is a little not, but he and the princess are close relatives after all, and they break bones and tendons! If you don't save the emperor from danger this time, the new monarch will be established in the future, and feel that the princess has harmed the emperor's life, so as to take revenge, the princess's life is worried, and the princess of the year is because she is the remnant of the previous dynasty, so she has become a thorn in the side of the emperor, if there is a new dynasty in the future, the princess 。。。。。。 Speaking of this, Li Jiancheng deliberately paused, and a flash of horror flashed on Princess Anyi's face.
"Good! I'll help you! As soon as the princess spoke, a man's voice came from the door.
"But who is this going to save?!" Following this voice, Li Jiancheng saw a sturdy man with a beard on his face and couldn't come over, and the atmosphere in the camp became depressing. In addition, from this man's eyes, Li Jiancheng saw a trace of obscenity.
"See the queen mother, I don't know who these two men are! Is it your adulterer? When Princess An Yi heard this, her face immediately turned white with anger.
"Ashina's association rate, don't talk nonsense, these two are the khan's personal soldiers, and they were sent to me as a messenger this time, you had better keep the etiquette and not be too rude." After hearing the name of the Ashina Society, Li Jiancheng immediately thought of who he was, the son of Shibi Khan, Jieli Khan Ashina was captured, he was appointed by the Tang Dynasty as a Zhonglang general, and Tang Taizong placed the surrendered Turks within the borders of the Tang Dynasty, and did not canonize a new khan to manage them. However, in the thirteenth year of Zhenguan, Tang Taizong drove to the Jiucheng Palace, and in the middle of the night, the association led to support the raid on the emperor's dormitory by He Luohu, the son of the Tuli Khan, and was killed (he was called a household scoundrel by Tang Taizong).
"Father Khan's personal envoy, I know all the guards around Father Khan, why haven't I seen you two! It's your adulterer who is an adulterer, my Turkic desert steppe, no more rules than your Central Plains flower world, if the princess feels lonely, even my son can serve the queen mother. He glanced at Li Yuanba, hinting that Li Yuanba was ready to do it, and he came to Ashina in front of the association rate, bowed to his chest and bowed to Ashina, and said to Ashina association rate in Turkic language.
"Prince, slave is 。。。。。。" Taking advantage of Ashina's attention when he was not on him, he took out the dagger and stabbed it directly into Ashina's stomach, Ashina opened his mouth and made a little noise, he was covered by Li Jiancheng, and then stabbed the dagger into Ashina's heart. As the dagger slowly deepened, Ashina's association rate ran out of breath. But Ashina's guards heard some voices first, and asked in front of the tent gate:
"Prince, are you alright? Prince!? "For a long time, I couldn't hear the voice of Ashina's association rate responding.
"Not good! The prince is in danger. Pulling out his saber and rushing in, the princess's guards were guarding in front of the tent and did not allow them to enter, and the guards at the rate of association didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, they stabbed them directly and rushed in, Li Jiancheng shouted:
"The association is rude to His Majesty Kedun, and has been killed, and everyone else is guilty of the same crime! Kill! Li Yuanba had already used a double hammer to smash it to the person who took the lead, and smashed it into a meatloaf at once, and then the others also died under Li Yuanba's hammer. Li Yuanba wiped the blood from his face.
"Happy, happy! Big brother, these Turkic barbarians are simply vulnerable, I haven't been so happy in my life for a long time. Li Jiancheng ignored him. Smiled and said to the princess:
"Princess! Things can't be delayed any longer, and I hope the princess will decide quickly! Princess An Yi thought for a moment and nodded. Subsequently, Li Jiancheng asked Li Yuanba to stand in front of the camp tent and did not allow anyone to approach the camp tent. And he whispered in Princess Anyi's ear. Princess Anyi nodded yes again and again.
In the evening, in a camp on the border of the East and West Turkic borders, most of the soldiers in the camp went out to patrol, the women who stayed behind were making dinner, the children were playing together, not far away, a stream of dust and smoke raised by horses' hooves came to the camp, everyone saw that it was their own flag, they all thought that the patrolling soldiers had returned, and did not do any precautions, who knew that once they approached, they immediately drew their scimitars and slashed them directly, shouting in Turkic language:
"Kill! The more you kill, the more rewards you will receive from the Great Khan, kill! While slashing and slashing, even the eighty-year-old man and the nursing child were spared, and the fire was extinguished in the camp, and in a short time the whole camp was in ruins, and the knight ran towards another camp.
The next day, the remaining elders of the Turkic Khan's camp received the news and immediately came to Princess Anyi's camp:
"Kedun! This morning, we received an urgent report from the border that five camps had been sacked at the border with Datou, and it seems that the news of the expedition of our main force to the Central Plains has been leaked. Princess Anyi looked at the others in the tent.
"Didn't the Khan take his troops out hunting? Why did you go to the Central Plains? "A Turkic noble elder saluted Kedun and said:
"Forgiveness of sins! It was the Great Khan who told us to keep it a secret, not to talk about it to Kotun, and not to be surprised. ”
"For this occasion, I have to send someone to report to the Khan, asking the Khan to bring the main force back to the division!" As soon as Princess Anyi's words were finished, a young Turkic nobleman stood up and raised his head in opposition.
"No, Kedun! Now that the Yang family has been besieged by our Turkic army, it won't be long before he wagging his tail and begging for mercy from my Great Turk. If we retreat now, we'll fall short! And there is no evidence that Datou did it. His words aroused the approval of a part of the Turkic nobility. For a while, there was a lot of discussion in the whole camp. The two factions of different opinions quarreled in the tent. At this time, a Turkic soldier broke in.
"Oh no, Kedun! We found the body of Prince Ashina a few miles from the Khan's camp. And found the waist card of the Datou tribe nearby, please take a look. Hearing the news, everyone present turned pale with fright. If the lives of those untouchables are not important, then the lives of the princes are absolutely valuable, and they cannot but have some scruples. Princess An Yi saw their faces and knew that they must have something in mind. The corners of his mouth showed a sneer that people perceived:
"Now that the prince has been killed, this matter is likely to be a test of Datou's efforts to our department, and the major camps have strengthened their vigilance, for the sake of safety, I think it is better to send someone to the Great Khan to take a trip and let the Great Khan return to the division in case of accidents, what do you think?" Noble elders, look at me, and I'll look at you. Finally, they knelt together in front of Princess Anyi.
"Do as you do!"
Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanba walked on the way back, and Li Yuanba couldn't suppress the joy in his heart.
"Big brother, this time is really happy, according to the big brother's strategy, I killed several Turkic barbarians, and see if they dare to bully the people at our border in the future. By the way, big brother, you said that we went back like this, what if they haven't withdrawn yet? Aren't we going back to find death? Li Jiancheng knew the ending of the story in advance, and pretended to tell Li Yuanba mysteriously:
"Third brother, think about it, if it is just a few poor people who die, it will naturally not make them have any scruples, but this time there is a prince who died, then this movement is big, even if they want to hide it, they can't hide it. Therefore, in my opinion, this time the Turkic barbarians will definitely withdraw their troops. After Li Yuanba listened, he smiled stupidly, and the two brothers walked all the way talking and laughing, and suddenly, with a bang, a sharp arrow shot a pro-soldier.
"There are assassins, protect Childe." Sharp arrows came like rain, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanba both drew their personal weapons to resist, and their personal soldiers also formed a circle to protect them in the middle. As the pro-soldiers were shot one by one, there were fewer and fewer people on Li Jiancheng's side. The Assassins saw that there were only a few of them, and they charged on horseback. After Li Jiancheng saw that they didn't shoot bows and arrows, the pressure was greatly reduced, Li Yuanba was even more brave, everyone who was close to him was killed by him, and the others were cleaned up by Li Jiancheng and the rest of his own soldiers, in order to find out the news, Li Jiancheng left a living mouth and put the knife on his neck:
"Say! Who sent you? The man ignored him, and suddenly, blood spat from his mouth, and then his whole body turned to pus, as did the other corpses. After Li Jiancheng saw it, he immediately ordered to leave, and they were not allowed to reveal a word to the outside world.
