Chapter 105: He's Not Smart

After all, Yicheng is the princess of the Great Sui, and as long as she is unwilling, Shibi Khan, who succeeds to the throne, can only become her nominal husband. However, with the rebels in the Central Plains rising up and the national strength of the Great Sui weakened, Shibi Khan began to ignore the Great Sui and forcibly took possession of Princess Yicheng.

It was also from that day that Princess Yicheng slowly changed from a gentle Central Plains woman to a decisive superior. She began to endure humiliation and secretly cultivate her wings, and it happened that many of the old tribes of the Qimin Khan were close to the Great Sui and gave Princess Yicheng the opportunity to take power in the Turks.

When the Turkic army besieged Yanmen Pass, Princess Yicheng sent someone to lie about the Turkic civil strife and deceived Shibi Khan back. In addition, Yang Guang is not dead, the remnants of the Great Sui are still alive, and Shibi doesn't dare to go too far, so he can only be resentful in his heart and wait for the opportunity.

Princess Yicheng is also a smart person, she knew that Shibi Khan would kill her sooner or later, so she secretly plotted to poison Shibi Khan when he went on an expedition, and lied to the public that he had died.

The Turks fought bravely, but they were not as scheming as the Central Plains, and the men of the steppe were often sick and died when they went out on expeditions, and most of them did not think about it.

Some people also suspected that Princess Yicheng was responsible for the death of Shibi Khan, but when Shibi Khan died, Princess Yicheng did not follow him. Moreover, after the death of Shibi Khan, Princess Yicheng did not let her son succeed to the throne, but gladly accepted the advice of the ministers, and let Shibi Khan's younger brother Ji Lifu set inherit the position of Khan, and called Luo Khan.

Princess Yicheng's actions make it difficult to think that she had anything to do with the death of Shibi Khan, and those who are still skeptical either hide their suspicions in their hearts, or are thrown into prison or executed for various reasons.

After Liversh succeeded to the throne, although he married Princess Yicheng according to custom, he behaved very well-behaved in front of Princess Yicheng, and he didn't have any thoughts about Princess Yicheng, and most of the decisions made about major events would seek Princess Yicheng's opinion.

But within two years, Tong Lifushi felt that his wings were already full, and began to ignore Princess Yicheng, and often sent troops to invade the cities of the Great Sui, so it didn't take long for him to fall ill and die.

When he was seriously ill, Princess Yicheng accompanied him every day, took care of him day and night, and even sent people to collect medicinal herbs to try to cure Liver's illness. Therefore, after the death of Liversher, no one could bear to blame her, let alone doubt her, in the face of Princess Yicheng, who washed her face with tears all day long.

The family must not be left without an owner for a day, and the country must not be without a king for a day, Princess Yicheng endured her grief and consulted with the Turkic ministers and the leaders of the tribes about the successor to the throne of the Khan.

Princess Yicheng's son has grown up and is fully qualified to inherit the throne of Khan, but Princess Yicheng overrode public opinion and elected Chu Luo Khan's younger brother Dubi to succeed him and call him Jieli Khan.

"Yicheng, it's really hard for you." Yicheng cried in the arms of the Empress Dowager Xiao for a long time, and her voice finally gradually became softer, and the Empress Dowager Xiao patted Princess Yicheng's back and sighed: "The court and Your Majesty are ashamed of you!" ”

Princess Yicheng sacrificed too much for Da Sui, in order to prevent Da Sui from worrying about external and internal troubles, she risked her life and did so many things that would make her lose her life at any time, but Yang Guang's Da Sui still died.

"No matter how bitter Yicheng is, he is still alive after all." Hearing Empress Dowager Xiao's words, Princess Yicheng stopped sobbing, her eyes became extremely sharp, she sat up straight, and said expressionlessly: "But the imperial brother is gone, and those who betrayed him are still alive, which is something that Yicheng can't tolerate." ”

Empress Dowager Xiao shook her head slightly, understanding that Princess Yicheng's obsession in her heart could not be changed because of her few words, she looked at the south and blurted out: "Your Majesty's revenge, Xuanba will avenge him." ”

"You said that Li Xuanba is a loving and righteous person, do you think that one day in the future, he will hold a double hammer and attack Daxing to take down Li Yuan's head?" Princess Yicheng retorted: "The revival of the Great Sui may only be achieved by him, but the enmity of the imperial brother, Yicheng can only come by himself." ”

"Whatever you do, I won't object, but Yoshisei, I hope you don't lose yourself in revenge." Empress Dowager Xiao let out a long sigh and continued: "Furthermore, although the Turks are powerful, have you ever thought that relying only on the power of the Turks can really destroy the Tang Dynasty?" ”

The combat power of the Turkic cavalry is unparalleled in the world, and on the grassland, no force dares to fight against it, but when it comes to attacking cities and plundering land, the Turks are really far behind the Tang Dynasty.

"The Empress Dowager, you are too worried." Seeing that Empress Dowager Xiao finally began to care about state affairs, Princess Yicheng's face showed a smile: "Li Yuan betrayed the imperial brother, saying that it is good, it is for the sake of the common people in the world, and it is just for the sake of power, the Turks may not be able to destroy the Tang State, but they have been at war with the Turks for a few years, what qualifications do they have to go south?" What qualifications do they have to face the army of the Great Sui? ”

Hearing Princess Yicheng's words, Empress Dowager Xiao was speechless for a long time.

In these days in the Turks, she was indifferent to everything, but after all, she was the mother of a country, and her vision was very human. From Princess Yicheng's previous words, she had already perceived Princess Yicheng's purpose: to let the Turks and the Tang Dynasty consume national strength together.

"Gao'er, that kid, I'm afraid I'm still grateful to you now!" After being silent for a long time, Empress Dowager Xiao shook her head slightly again, and said with emotion: "If Your Majesty sees your current appearance, I don't know whether you will be happy or sad. ”

"The Empress Dowager, you have really been listening to what Yicheng said." Princess Yicheng smiled happily: "Yicheng has no one who can speak here, and now that you are here, Yicheng is really happy." ”

"Who dares to listen to your words?" Empress Dowager Xiao glanced at Princess Yicheng and said with a smile: "If you and Xuanba can meet, you will definitely feel sorry for each other." ”

"Even if they haven't met, Yicheng has some admiration for him." Princess Yicheng replied with a smile: "But he is only afraid that he will not think so in his heart, and he may still resent Yicheng." ”

"That boy is very intelligent, and he will be able to perceive your good intentions." Empress Dowager Xiao seemed to think of some interesting things in the past, a comfortable smile appeared on her face, and the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned: "And that kid is very good at coaxing people, if he is here, the mourning family is afraid that he will not even think about it for a moment." ”

Since Yang Guang died in Jiangdu, Empress Dowager Xiao was disheartened and lazy, and after coming to the Turks, even in front of Princess Yicheng, she also regarded herself as a mourner, and now she called herself a mourner, Yicheng was happy in her heart, but there was no happy expression on her face, she snorted coldly and said: "If he is really as smart as you said, how could he send Li Zhiyun to Turkic?" ”
