In the East Palace of the Prince of Chang'an City, the musicians and the singers and dancers in the Taichang Temple are playing and performing for the guests who come from afar, a feast is being held, in order to express the grandeur, Li Jiancheng will Qi King Li Yuanji and Pei Lin also invited over, Wei Zheng and Xu Jingzong accompanied at the end of the banquet:

"Come, come, come! Shixin, since Luoyang farewell, we haven't seen each other for nearly ten years, and now you have become a heroic general from a young man with flesh and blood, what a gratifying congratulations! "Compared with when he was in Luoyang, the current Luo Shixin is wearing armor, and there is a trace of bloody murderous aura between his eyebrows. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info Luo Shixin raised his glass:

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince praised, Shixin has always remembered that if it wasn't for His Royal Highness the Prince, Shixin would have been killed in the prison of Luoyang by Yu Wenhua and the old thief, today I Luo Shixin can stand here, all of them are His Royal Highness the Prince's Longen, Shixin swore to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today with this glass of wine, from now on, I Luo Shixin will look forward to His Royal Highness the Prince, and will never disobey." Saying that, Luo Shixin knelt down to Li Jiancheng and respectfully expressed his allegiance, Li Jiancheng smiled, and was about to drink the wine in his hand, suddenly, Li Jiancheng's eyes saw two young people sitting next to Luo Shixin. Some are just a kind of youthful pride.

"Shixin, who are these two strong men beside you?" Luo Shixin humbly explained to Li Jiancheng:

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Qiqi, these two are the two wives and brothers of the eldest brother Luo Yi - Xue Wanjun and Xue Wanche. Originally from Gyeonggi Fufeng, he left his hometown when he was young, and has been living in Youzhou, this time I heard that Beichen sent an envoy to Chang'an, and I have to come with him, two brothers, this is what I often mention to you, the life-saving benefactor who saved me in Luoyang Prison, His Royal Highness the Prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li Jiancheng. After listening to Luo Shixin's introduction, Xue Wanjun and Xue Wanche lazily put down their wine glasses, got up from the banquet, and knelt in front of Li Jiancheng to salute.

"Minister Xue Wanjun (Xue Wanche) See His Royal Highness the Prince."

"Ahh The two strong men don't need to be polite, please get up quickly. ”

"Thank you, Your Highness the Prince!" After Xue Wanjun and Xue Wanche got up, after returning to the banquet, their eyes only stared at the beautiful dancers in the middle, and they did not care about the attitude of Li Jiancheng who was present. Li Jiancheng saw it in his eyes, he didn't care about it for the time being, his mind was still on Luo Shixin's body, and when the banquet was over, Li Jiancheng left Luo Shixin behind and asked about the jade seal of the country:

"Shixin! I heard you say that Dou Jiande sent the jade seal of the former Sui to Yang Zhengdao in Dingxiang, I don't know why? In Luo Shixin's narration, Li Jiancheng knew what was going on. Because of the Empress Dowager Xiao, Luo Yi surrendered to Dou Jiande, and often sent his subordinates to send some tributes and tributes to comfort the Empress Dowager Xiao, and also opened the trade route between Leshou and Youzhou, and then, Cao Dan under Dou Jiande sent people to often smuggle some sought-after items through Youzhou to the Turks for sale, and by the way, in Youzhou to engage in some low buy and sell high, and Luo Yi in order to show his submission to the Empress Dowager Xiao, he also turned a blind eye to Cao Dan's deeds, but since the Empress Dowager Xiao was sent to the Turks by Dou Jiande, Luo Yi began not to go to see Dou Jiande, Dou Jiande sent someone to condemn him, and the person who went put on the appearance of an envoy from the heavens, and his tone was frivolous:

"General Luo Yi! King Dou asks you, since you have already attached yourself to our Great Xia, why don't you obey the courtier's courtesy, it has been several months since the date of the court meeting agreed with our King Dou, why haven't you seen your figure yet? Luo Yi contemptuously blew the tea leaves in front of him, in the teacup:

"This lord, this general made an appointment with you King Dou at the beginning, and my Luo Yi surrendered to the Empress Dowager Xiao and the former Sui Emperor Yang Qi, now, where are these two?" At the beginning, Luo Yi's surrender was in the name of the Empress Dowager Xiao and the former Sui Emperor Yang Qi as an excuse, and Dou Jiande also used this excuse as a step to accept Luo Yi's surrender, and then, Luo Yi took the opportunity to meet the Empress Dowager Xiao and the former Sui Emperor Yang Qi to seize the time to establish a relationship with Xiao Mo and Du Fuwei's envoys, and obtained a large number of grain, grass, salt and other dual-use materials, and used these materials to exchange a large number of war horses from the Turkic little Turkic Khan Ashinash Bobi, in Cao Dan and the Turkic smuggling activities, Luo Yi and Cao Dan secretly contacted, Obtained a large number of iron strikers in Shandong, as well as a large number of copper and iron raw materials that can be used to make weapons, through these efforts, Luo Yi has established a large number of troops, confident that he is fully capable of holding Youzhou. Therefore, as soon as Luo Yi heard that Dou Jiande sent Empress Dowager Xiao and the former Sui Emperor Yang Qi to the Turks, he immediately turned his face and did not send anyone to see Dou Jiande, and also seized the war horses smuggled by Cao Dan from the Turks. This naturally angered Dou Jiande. Originally, Xiang immediately sent troops to attack Luo Yi, but later, under the persuasion of Mrs. Cao, an envoy was sent to question.

"The general is wrong, it's not us who sent the Empress Dowager Xiao and the emperor to the Turks, it's An Yi Kedun who misses the Empress Dowager Xiao and his nephew, so he sent someone to pick them up, and it has nothing to do with King Dou and Mrs. Cao!"

"Humph! What has nothing to do with this, according to what the general heard, it was King Dou who wanted to forcibly occupy the jade seal, in a vain attempt to ascend the throne, but the words could not be persecuted, and finally snatched by force, and then he was afraid that someone would criticize him, so he imprisoned the ancestors and grandchildren of the Empress Dowager Xiao, if it were not for the help of the righteous people, I am afraid that the ancestors and grandchildren of the Empress Dowager Xiao would die. Luo Yi's words were Dou Jiande's envoys, and his face turned pale.

"General Luo Yi, I'm afraid it's against the courtesy of the monarch to say this!" Luo Yi slapped the table:

"Bastard, what kind of courtesy of monarchs and ministers, he Dou Jiande is reckless, and he took advantage of the situation when the world was in turmoil at the end of the Sui Dynasty, but he was just a chaotic minister and thief, and the general had already made it clear that the general was the Empress Dowager Xiao of the Great Sui and the emperor Yang Qi, and he Dou Jiande was not the monarch of the general. It's just a thief. Dou Jiande's envoy's face turned from white to red again, and his muscles were bruised:

"Good! Very good! It's just wonderful. Since General Luo Yi is so heroic, the official will go back immediately and report to King Dou, and the general will wait! Dou Jiande's envoy was about to turn around and leave, when Luo Yi called out to him:

"Why are you in such a hurry to leave, Your Excellency! Don't leave anything behind......" As he spoke, Luo Yi's personal soldiers stopped Dou Jiande's envoy, and Dou Jiande's envoy suddenly felt a dangerous taste:

"Luo Yi, what are you going to do?" Luo Yi replied coldly to Dou Jiande's envoy:

"Envoy, you have been rambling with me for a long time, and you are not very respectful to this general, so don't go back, isn't it good to take root in me!? Someone! Drag this man down to General Ben and cut him down. After speaking, Luo Yi's personal soldiers were going to pull Dou Jiande's envoys out.

"General Luo, as the saying goes, the two countries are at war, don't kill them!" Luo Yi sneered:

"What two countries, this is one country, and you are not a messenger in the first place, just a grass mountain thief, drag down to this general. Give the head to his entourage and let them bring it to Dou Jiande. Dou Jiande saw the head of the messenger and was furious:

"Bastard, someone! Give this king all the soldiers and horses, this king wants to sweep away Youzhou, and use the head of Luo Yi's bastard to make a urinal for this king. The guards were about to give the order, but Mrs. Cao stopped them:

"Wait, the king is angry!"

"Hey! Madam, how can you let me be angry, this Luo Yi is so insulting to this king, this king really can't swallow this breath. Mrs. Cao stroked Dou Jiande's chest to soothe Dou Jiande's emotions.

"The king is angry, now is not the best time to send troops, we fought with Luo Yi for so long, and we didn't take advantage of it alone, and now, through the trade with Jianghuai Jingchu and the collusion with the Turkic Turkic little Khan Ashinash Bobi, now we are also strong and strong, and we can only forbear." Mrs. Cao has always been resourceful, and Dou Jiande also respects Mrs. Cao's opinion very much. But this time, he was a little angry with Mrs. Cao:

"Patience and patience, now we are already raising tigers." Mrs. Cao didn't care about Dou Jiande's tone:

"Lord Wang! You also said now, Luo Yi is a tiger, when the tiger was thin, we didn't kill the tiger, now that the tiger is fat, we have to be more careful. And Luo Yi and Tuli Little Khan colluded so tightly, once the fight starts, I am afraid that there will be some misunderstanding, and the battle will definitely be fought, but the time has not yet come, please bear with King Dou first. Besides, the little Khan of Tuli is very ambitious, and the concubine thinks that the contradiction between the little Khan of Tuli and the Khan will definitely intensify, and it will not be too late for us to do it when the time comes. ”

"But is this king enduring it like this, this king is unwilling!"

"Lord Wang! The concubine wants to make a bet with the prince, and the concubine estimates that the time will not be too far away. Dou Jiande also felt that he was a little impulsive, and slowly withdrew the order. Later, after the little Khan of Tuli was defeated by the Khan of Lingli, the territory was given to Yang Zhengdao by the Khan of Lingli, and he heard that Liu Wuzhou of Mayi ceded Dingxiang to Yang Zhengdao, Dou Jiande's heart came alive again, and he immediately came to Mrs. Cao to discuss:

"Madam, you are really the king's daughter Zhuge Liang, as Madame expected! The little Turki Khan was defeated by the Turki Khan, and I also heard that the territory of the Turki little khan was given to Yang Zhengdao by the Turki Khan, and Luo Yi's Turkic backers have fallen, should we hurry up and march against Luo Yi! Mrs. Cao's eyes rolled:

"King! Now we need some foreign help! ”

"What foreign aid?"

"King, Luo Yi has a deep concept of Huayi defense, when guarding Youzhou, the little Turki Khan and the Lili Khan have always wanted to go south to the north of Youzhou to graze, but Luo Yi no matter how miserable his situation is, he did not cede an inch of land to the Turks. For the little Khan of Tuli, he only traded, did not retreat, and his defense was always tight. If we send someone to contact the Khan of Lingli, let the Khan send troops south, contain Luo Yi's forces, and then re-divide the northern border after the matter is completed, what do you think, the king? Dou Jiande bowed his head and was silent. Mrs. Cao persuaded again:

"Wang, the big husband wants to become a big thing and is not informal, after we clear Luo Yi and unify the Central Plains, how about recovering the lost land?"

"What this king is worried about is not this, but because there is definite news, the Empress Dowager Xiao has become the Empress Dowager Kedun of the Lili Khan, and this king is afraid of ......"

"Lord Wang, this matter is not difficult! Don't we have a peerless treasure heirloom jade seal in our hands? Give the heirloom jade seal to the Lili Khan, no. As soon as he heard that he was going to send the heirloom jade seal out, Dou Jiande's face was even more reluctant.

"Madam, this is the treasure of the Central Plains, whoever has the heirloom jade seal means the orthodoxy of the world!"

"Lord Wang, now that the knife is on the neck, we have no choice, besides, this jade seal originally belonged to the Yang family, didn't the prince always regard himself as a loyal minister of Sui before!" Dou Jiande finally made up his mind and sent the jade seal to the Turkic Lili Khan. And agreed with the Lili Khan that after Luo Yi was destroyed, the northern grasslands of Youzhou would be ceded to the Lili Khan.
