Chapter 296: Turkic Dynamics
After Li Jiancheng returned to the East Palace of the Prince, he told Xu Jingzong about the scene at the banquet in the Taiji Palace, and Xu Jingzong said to Li Jiancheng:
"His Royal Highness the Prince, according to the humble ministers, this new Lord Li Daoxuan is a thoughtful person, first, he knows that the newcomer is the most concerned and the most hated, so this Lord Li insists on the high position of King Huaiyang, and second, he knows that his younger brother Li Daoming is subject to the palace of King Qin, and he is afraid that King Qin will harm his younger brother, so he deliberately asks for the title of his younger brother Li Daoming among many clan disciples and in front of His Majesty, so that his younger brother Li Daoming is exposed to the public, on the one hand, everyone will not get along with a cripple, On the other hand, His Royal Highness the King of Qin will not easily harm Li Daoming, and the third point is that after everything is done, Li Daoming still sat next to Li Shimin, indicating that he will not betray easily, no matter whether the crown prince ascends the throne or the king of Qin ascends the throne in the future, no one will be embarrassed by a loyal Li Tang clan. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Li Jiancheng nodded. But his face was a little solemn. Xu Jingzong looked at Li Jiancheng's face, and suddenly knelt on the ground to plead guilty to Li Jiancheng:
"His Royal Highness the Prince, it was the negligence of the subordinates, the subordinates have only paid attention to the movements of the clans and ministers of the King of Qin, the King of Qi, the Prince of Huai'an, etc., who are obviously unfavorable to His Royal Highness the Prince, and have not paid attention to the other official clans that are good friends with His Royal Highness, please punish the Prince's highness for the crime of negligence!" Li Jiancheng helped Xu Jingzong up, slowly calmed Xu Jingzong's emotions and said:
"Jing Zongqing, it's not the palace that blames you, it seems that we still have some negligence in the monitoring of Chang'an! The fence should be tighter. And you have to broaden your horizons! Xu Jingzong Lian Lian nodded and said:
"Thank you for your forgiveness, after the minister goes back, he will definitely rectify his efforts and strengthen the monitoring of this Chang'an area, so that not a single mosquito can escape the ears and eyes of His Royal Highness the Prince." Li Jiancheng nodded, Xu Jingzong knew that Li Jiancheng would not be difficult for himself for the time being, and while saying goodbye to Li Jiancheng, he secretly said to himself in his heart:
"Xu Jingzong! Xu Jingzong! You must learn the lesson this time, you can't relax on some things casually, some subtleties, you still have to pay more attention! "Looking at Xu Jingzong's back, as well as the beads of sweat behind Xu Jingzong, Li Jiancheng said to himself: 'Before, I read the history books and saw that whether it was the Hongwu Dynasty or the Bald Dynasty in later generations, there were any East Factory and West Factory, Jinyi Guard, Military Command Bureau, Central Command Bureau, Second Department of the Ministry of National Defense or something, I felt that the spy rule was very dark, and several spy agencies together had nothing else but infighting, but now think about it, the more spies, then the leader is like having three eyes and four ears, On the one hand, if there is anything going on, he will never hide it from himself, on the other hand, a great man in later generations once said that only with competition can progress be made, is it time to find someone to compete for favor for Xu Jingzong. Thinking of this, Li Jiancheng didn't have any suitable measures for a while, so he moved his eyes to the Turkic steppe in the north, and moved to Di Zhixun, Di Renjie and his son who were far away. In the depths of the Turkic steppe, a man dressed in Confucian costumes of the Central Plains placed a bull's head and a sheep's head in front of the tomb and lit an incense candle. Pour a glass of wine:
"Lord Zuo Youxian, although you and I have not seen each other for a long time, but I am very impressed by your wisdom and strategy in the next, originally, I thought that this time if you can make great contributions to His Royal Highness the Prince, when the time comes, after His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ascends the throne, he can be a minister in the same palace with you in the next place, and he can also compete with you again, who knows that you die before you get out of the school, it's a pity. If you could not die, how nice it would be! Now, in the lower part of the wine sacrifice, for you! Please! After saying that, the man in the Confucian costume of the Central Plains fell to the ground. At this time, someone came to the person in the Central Plains Confucian costume and whispered:
"Daddy! Father! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent someone. The father and son are Di Zhixun and Di Renjie, father and son, who were sent by Li Jiancheng to the Eastern Turks. After Di Renjie came to Di Zhixun's side, Di Zhixon stopped Di Renjie's words:
"Renjie! The deceased is the greatest, you and Lord Zuo also know each other, and now that he is sleeping here, you also toast a glass of wine for Lord Zuo! Di Renjie agreed:
"Yes! Father! Di Renjie had a glass of wine on the island, and poured down respectfully to the tomb of this Zuo Youxian. Then, he knelt down again and kowtowed to Zuo Youxian's grave. When Di Zhixon saw it, he nodded with satisfaction. Di Renjie was about to step forward and say to Di Zhixun, but Di Zhisun made a silent gesture:
"Renjie! Go back and say. Returning to the guest tent arranged by Ashinas Mobi Special Service for Di Zhixun and Di Renjie father and son, Di Zhixon saw his acquaintance:
"Ahh Wide sea! It's you! "The person who came was an old acquaintance of Dickson's father and son, and the sea was majestic. Xiong Kuohai stood up:
"Master Di, Brother Renjie, this time the prince sent the last general to assist you, and also brought you a large number of supplies, and there is also a letter from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to you." Dickinson opened the letter and saw that it read:
"Di Qing! Now the situation in Chang'an City is changing, and now the situation of the palace is not very good, and now the saint is very concerned about the war in Mayi. And the competition between the palace and the king of Qin has begun to heat up, the Turkic situation can not be delayed, and now send the general Xiong Kuohai to escort a thousand horses of Shu Jin, 10,000 gold and silver each to come to you, Wan Wan to speed up the progress, Li Jiancheng personally wrote! After Di Zhixon and Di Renjie finished reading it, they had a heavy feeling in their hearts, and Di Renjie said to Di Zhixun:
"Father, although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not accuse our father and son of doing things badly, there are still some harsh words in the wording!" Dickinson nodded. Then he said to the mighty sea:
"Wide sea! You're tired from coming all the way from Chang'an City, so go and rest first. Renjie, you take Kuohai to rest and settle in other guest tents. Di Renjie and Xiong Kuohai agreed and retreated together. After the vast sea was settled, Di Renjie returned to the guest tent where Di Zhixon lived. Seeing that Dijson was pondering, he didn't dare to disturb. Di Zhixon saw Di Renjie come back:
"Renjie, how is Kuohai?"
"Father, Kuhai and his men have worked hard all the way, and after the child has settled them, Xiong Kuohai has fallen asleep." Dicthion nodded:
"Renjie! What do you say we should do now? Di Renjie replied:
"Father! The child is also thinking about countermeasures these days, and the child thinks that now we should start mainly from the aspect of Anyikton. And Ashinas Mobi Special Service is second here. ”
"Oh! Tell me about it! Why can't we start with Ashina Simobi Special Service, but Ashinas Morbi Special Service is second here. Di Renjie told Di Zhixun about the thoughts in his heart one by one:
"Father, the child is considered from these points, first of all, Anyi Kedun has been in the Eastern Turkic tribes for many years, with a huge reputation, and has served three Eastern Turkic Khans, all of whom are Turkic Kedun, and when the Turkic Khans ascended the throne, Anyi Kedun has played an important role, and second, now Anyi Khotun has given birth to a son for the Khan of Ngali, and he is also the only son of the Khan of Ngali, and his status as Khotun has been unshakable. Although the Ashinas Mobi special service was in an important position, it had been suspected during the period of the previous Khan, and had never been given real power. On the one hand, he is extremely familiar with the internal affairs of the Turks, if he simply lets An Yi Kedun blow the wind on the side of the pillow, with the character of the Khan, he does not like women to interfere in politics, regardless of the old Turkic calendar, and the Empress Dowager Xiao is the proof that he is desperately weakening the authority of An Yi Kedun, so what An Yi Kedun said may not be able to be listened to. What's more, the child has been by His Royal Highness the Prince's side for a while, and he knows that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is extremely attentive to this Ashina Simobi Special Service Master! Di Zhixon thought for a moment and nodded:
"Renjie! You have grown up, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince praised you many times in front of Daddy and me, Daddy I still don't believe it, but now Daddy believes it, you have really grown up, but Daddy has to serve the old. Seeing Di Zhixun's somewhat lonely expression, Di Renjie wanted to comfort Di Zhixun, but Di Zhixon waved his hand and said:
"Renjie! The back waves of the Yangtze River retreat before the waves are the inherent laws between history and heaven and earth, and I am really happy to be able to see you grow so fast! Alright, you go and do what you have to do! As for Ashnabi Special Service, I will do it for my father himself! Di Renjie nodded. An Yi Ke Dun's camp, An Yi Ke Dun smiled at his son:
"Come on! Ashina buyers, give Ben Kedun a smile, come, laugh! Belch! Good! What a good job! What a good son of Hongu. Ainokodun teased the child while looking at the so many gifts in front of him. Mama Xin complimented on the side:
"Your Majesty, since you gave birth to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the noble elders of the entire Eastern Turks have sent a large number of deer antlers, furs, and high-quality tonic treasures, princess, you have finally come out." An Yikedun looked at the things on the table, smiled at the baby in his arms, and said:
"Humph! Originally, this palace thought that as long as he had a beauty that would never decline, in this barbarian land where the throne of the Khan changed hands many times, I Yang Xiyan would definitely be invincible, but later I learned that this man is the same wherever he goes, and he still has a son! At this time, the maid at the door went into the tent and reported to An Yike:
"Qi Qi Ke Dun, there is a Han man named Huai Ying in the Central Plains outside the door who asks to see Ke Dun, saying that it is your fellow countryman, do you see it or not?"
"What fellow countryman, go and tell him that he can't see him." An Yi Kedun now feels that the Central Plains is just a place name for him, especially the sense of crisis after Li Yuan established the Tang Dynasty to replace the Great Sui, plus now he has a son who is the crown prince, as long as he waits for the death of Lili Khan, after Ashina buyers ascend the throne, he is the greatest empress dowager of the Eastern Turks, why bother himself for a place name! So I directly ordered to refuse. After a while, the maid returned:
"Qi Qi Ke Dun, that person said that if Ke Dun doesn't see him, I'm afraid he won't know what will happen in the future." After hearing this, An Yi Kedun handed the child to Mama Xin beside him, and said angrily:
"Good! Someone! Bring that madman to Benkotun, Benkotun wants to see it, and set up a big iron pot outside the tent, and Benkotun wants to hear what kind of profound plan this man has, and if he doesn't listen to him, what kind of disaster will come to Benkotun. When An Yi Kedun spoke, his face was full of murder.
