At the banquet in the Jiedu Envoy's Mansion, Fu Meng Lingjing was extremely enthusiastic about Zhao Ziliang, but he was unapologetic and extremely cold to Ashinaxin, which made Ashina Xin sit in his position and fidget.

Fumeng Lingjing, as the deputy protector of Anxi and the envoy of the festival, has some words that are not good to say to Ash Na Xin in his identity position, and most of the people in the banquet do not understand the true intention of the imperial court to let Ash Na Xin serve as the ten surnamed khans, but Zhao Ziliang, Gao Xianzhi, Liu Wei and Dugu Jun and others know it, but these people are worried that Ash Naxin has no self-knowledge and can't figure out his position, so these people made eye contact with each other during the banquet and pushed Liu Wei out and knocked him out.

Just as everyone was pushing each other's glasses, Liu Wei held his wine glass and said to Ashina Xin under the guidance of Zhao Ziliang, Dugujun, Gao Xianzhi and others: "Khan, the lower official respects you a glass!" ”

Someone finally paid attention to him, which flattered Ashina Xin, he hurriedly picked up his wine glass in return, and the two drank a glass together.

Liu Wei put down the wine glass and said to Ashina Xin with a smile: "Khan, I don't know what the plan is for returning to Tuqi Shi this time?" ”

Ashina Xin hurriedly said: "When Xiao Khan said goodbye to the Holy Lord, he once asked His Majesty for the Holy Judgment, and the Holy Lord thought that the Little Khan could set up a tooth tent in Julan City, and General Zhao was also in favor of this!" After arriving in Kulan City, Xiao Khan set up a tooth tent, issued a wolf tooth order to summon all the troops to Kulan City to discuss matters, and then used the gold, silver and jewelry rewarded by the Holy Lord to recruit warriors of all clans to guard the tooth tent! ”

The others couldn't help but sneer in their hearts when they heard Ashina Xin's words, but their faces were silent, Liu Wei smiled and asked: "General Zhao will lead the troops back after escorting the Khan to Julan City, and although the Khan is the son of Ashina Huaidao Khan, after all, he has not been in Tuqishi since he was a child, and now that the Khan has returned, how many people still recognize the Khan and recognize the Khan's authority?" At that time, the khan will not have a single soldier in his hands, so why should the tribes obey the khan? If no one comes to visit after the Khan's arrows are sent back, what will the Khan do? ”

"Uh······ This ······" Ashina Xin opened his mouth, stunned for a while, he obviously didn't think about this problem, he always thought that he was the son of Ashina Huaidao, and the orthodox successor of the ten surnamed Khan of Tuqishi, as long as he returned to Tuqishi, the leaders of the various tribes would definitely lead their troops to come and attach, at that time he would be in power, high-spirited, how majestic?

But he never thought that he had left Turgish since he was a child, and how much recognition did the people have of him? After Liu Wei's reminder, he realized how stupid his previous ideas were.

Thinking of this, Ash Naxin was anxious, and hurriedly said, "My lord, if this is the case, what should I do?" ”

Liu glanced at Ashina Xin, shook his head and smiled: "If it really comes to this point, it will be too late to find a way at that time!" ”

"What then? When General Zhao escorted Xiao Khan to Kulan City and then left, Xiao Khan would become a lonely man in Kulan City. ”

Speaking of this, Ashina Xin looked at Fu Meng Lingjing and prayed: "Dashuai, what should Little Khan do?" If the various ministries are hostile to Xiao Khan, wouldn't Xiao Khan go to Kulan City into the mouth of a tiger? ”

Fu Meng Lingjing said indifferently: "This is not about the handsome, since the imperial court has canonized you as the ten surnamed Khan of Tuqishi, then you are the ten surnamed Khan, and it is your belonging to return to Tuqishi, as for whether you can sit firmly in the position of ten surnamed Khan, that is your own business!" ”

Ashina Xin was in a hurry, and said anxiously: "Dashuai, you can't leave Xiao Khan alone, ask Da Shuai to help Xiao Khan, Xiao Khan is unforgettable!" ”

Fumeng Lingjing glanced at Liu Wei, Liu Wei understood, and asked Ashina Xin: "My family handsome has never seen anyone bullying the weak, and he can help the Khan sit on the throne of the ten surnamed Khans, but what is the benefit of this for my Datang and my family's handsome?" Why did my handsome man help the Khan? As the saying goes, the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, how does the khan plan to thank the court and my family's marshal? ”

"This ······" Ashina Xin hesitated for a moment, and immediately said: "If the court and the marshal have any conditions, even if they are proposed, Xiao Khan will try his best to meet them!" ”

A smile appeared on Fu Meng Lingjing's face, he nodded to Liu Wei, Liu Wei immediately nodded and said: "Okay, the khan is quick to talk, and the lower officials are not welcome, the court and my family have three conditions: first, after the khan ascends the throne as the ten surnamed khans, he will send an envoy to Beijing for a pilgrimage at least once every three years; Second, my Tang Dynasty wants to garrison troops in every city on the northern Silk Road from Broken Leaf City to Tax Construction City, on the one hand, to protect the security of the Silk Road, on the other hand, to maintain the authority of the Khan, every year the Turk must hand over 3,000 cattle, 5,000 sheep and 3,000 high-quality war horses as garrison military expenses, and third, the Anxi Protectorate will send officials in each city to assist the Khan's ministers in handling political affairs. There are only these three conditions, as for how the khan wants to thank my marshal, how can the khan express it, the court and my marshal do not make hard requirements, I don't know what the khan thinks? ”

Listening to these conditions put forward by Liu Wei, although Ashina Xin felt very harsh, he also knew that he had no right to refuse at all, he was now almost nothing, without the support of the Tang Dynasty, especially the support of the Anxi Protectorate, he would not be able to sit firmly in the position of the ten surnamed Khan, he has not been in Tuqishi since he was a child, and now the power structure of Tuqishi has been finalized, and his arrival will definitely break the current power structure, the leaders of the various departments are only afraid that they are not so willing, when it comes to rights, some people can do anything, If the Anxi Protectorate does not support him, and Fumeng Lingjing does not support him, as long as Zhao Ziliang leads the army to leave, I am afraid that someone will bring troops to kill him, a nominal ten surnamed Khan!

Ashina Xin had no choice, he gritted his teeth and said: "Agree, Xiao Khan agrees with everything, as for the big handsome, Xiao Khan must have another thanks!" ”

When the officials and generals heard Ashinaxin's words, they couldn't help but say in their hearts: "Count you as acquaintances!" ”

Ashina Xin is not a fool, since he agreed to Fu Meng Lingjing's conditions, he also has to put forward his own conditions, so he said: "But Xiao Khan still has a little request, and please ask the marshal to agree, this time in addition to Zhao Ziliang's men, the marshal will send at least a thousand men and horses to go to Kulan City with Xiao Khan, and obey the command of Xiao Khan, this thousand men and horses will be stationed in Kulan City for a year, and the military expenses will be borne by Xiao Khan, and they will be returned to Da Shuai after a year!" ”

Fumeng Lingjing listened and agreed: "Even if the Khan doesn't say it, this matter will be raised by Ben Shuai, if he does not send troops to accompany him and station in Kulan City, the Khan will not be able to suppress the leaders of the Turgish tribes at all, and the Khan's request, Ben Shuai agreed!" However, Ben Shuai wants to remind the Khan, if one day the Khan sits firmly in the position of Khan, don't forget who supported you to sit in this position with nothing, don't forget, without the support of the Tang Dynasty, you are not a bullshit, if you turn your face and are ungrateful and ungrateful, the Tang Dynasty will not let you go, and my husband Meng Lingjing will not let you go."

Ashina Xin hurriedly bowed down and nodded: "Yes, yes, the big handsome reminded that Xiao Khan was a nobody, and with the support of all the saints, the court and the big marshal today, Xiao Khan will not forget!" Never dare to have two hearts for Datang, Xiao Khan swears that if Xiao Khan is ungrateful, he will definitely die a good death! ”

After reaching an agreement, both sides were relieved, so they opened up to drink, and Ashina Xin and the officials and generals were drunk one by one.

After the banquet dispersed, Fu Meng Lingjing called Zhao Ziliang: "Ziliang, didn't drink too much!" ”

Zhao Ziliang said with a smile: "The general still doesn't know the amount of wine that the last general drinks, this bit of wine is nothing!" ”

"That's okay, I just have something to say to you, let's go to the study and talk!"

Zhao Ziliang immediately said: "The last general also has something to say to the general, the general, please!" ”

The two came to the study, the maid returned after bringing tea, and the husband Meng Lingjing greeted Zhao Ziliang to drink tea and asked, "Ziliang, after you complete the escort task this time, what arrangements will the court have for you?" ”

Zhao Ziliang took a sip of tea and said: "If there is no accident, the imperial court will send the last general to Hedong, before the departure of the Hedong Jiedu envoy Tian Renwan has found the last general, and also persuaded His Majesty, the last general will escort Ashina Xin to the city of Kulan and return to the capital to pay the order, and then he will go to Hedong to serve as the left wing of the army and the envoy of Datong!" ”

Hearing this, Fu Meng Lingjing frowned and said, "Ben Shuai remembers that you seemed to be the governor of Xihai and the Taishou of Xihai County who also served as the envoy of the Great Dou Army, right?" This went to Hedong to serve as the left wing soldier and horse envoy and the Datong military envoy basically did not progress, it belongs to the flat adjustment! With your exploits in Hexi, not to mention being promoted by one level, you must at least be promoted by half a level, this is not normal! ”

Zhao Ziliang said with a smile: "Dashuai, although the grade has not been improved, but the status is not the same as the whisper, the soldiers and horses under the command are not less than in Hexi, the soldiers and horses in the left wing of Hedong are the third person in Hedong, in addition to the Jiedu envoy Tian, only Xiao Jiong, the commander of Hedong, is above me, and I, the governor of Xihai, can't even rank in Hexi, which is also a kind of progress!" ”

Fu Meng Lingjing nodded and sighed: "Ben Shuai thought that you would serve in the court this time when you went back, so that with you in the court, you can also inform Anxi of the movements of the court in time, if you are not in the court, Ben Shuai's side is blind to the situation in the court!" ”

Zhao Ziliang said: "Don't worry, the general will not be in Chang'an at the end of the past few years, and some potential generals and officials have also been promoted, and there are also some people secretly collecting the situation and trends in the DPRK and China, and the general will inform them after he goes back this time, so that when they send a letter to the general, they will also send a copy to the commander at the same time, so that the commander can know the movements of the DPRK and China at any time!" In addition, the last general and Li Linfu have already fallen out in trouble, and now they can avoid direct conflict with him when they are serving abroad, and the emperor does not have to be embarrassed! ”

Fu Meng Lingjing took a sip of tea, nodded and said, "That's fine!" (To be continued.) )
