The man was richly dressed and had a strong beard, and at first glance he was a Turkic nobleman.

But at this moment, under the supervision of several small schools, he roared with an ugly face, and this sentence was stumbling and very stiff.

Li Hong glanced at the man coldly, as soon as the person appeared, he was very arrogant, he must be a very powerful person among the Turks, but this is the Tang Dynasty, not to mention that the Turks are defeated countries, even ordinary envoys come to the court, and there is no such arrogant reason.

But having said that, Li Hong ignored him, no matter who this person was, as long as he was not a Turkic Khan, he was not qualified to talk to him face-to-face.

But Li Hong didn't come forward, it didn't mean that no one cared about this matter, Yan Shansi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, saw that the other party was so arrogant, and immediately stood up.

"Who are you waiting for? Seeing me as the prince of the Tang Dynasty, why don't you worship? ”

Today's greeting was all handled by the Ministry of Rites, and everything was going extremely smoothly, but I didn't expect such an unknown Turkic barbarian to suddenly appear, which really made Yan Shansi very unhappy, and his tone was also a little sharp.

Unexpectedly, the man stared at Li Hong deadly, ignoring Yan Shansi's questioning, and immediately turned the latter's angry face red.

"Your Highness, that's the Turkic Prime Minister Ashwin!"

At the same time, Pei Xingjian obviously didn't expect this situation, and said to Li Hong with an ugly face.

"Hmph, is that the Turkic minister who sent hundreds of thousands of troops into the underworld? A general of the defeated army, he still dares to be murderous, just Turkic, the old man Tima can be destroyed, don't forget. It was my Tang Dynasty who was merciful and accepted your letter of surrender. Don't make a mistake! ”

Behind Li Hong, another slightly sarcastic voice sounded.

The words that came out made Ashdwin Fu change color. His face suddenly became extremely ugly, and his voice became a little hoarse.

"Who is Your Excellency? Although the Turks were defeated, they were not slaughtered by others, not to mention that this is the reason why the Tang Dynasty treats people with a crown? ”

Asdwin Fu was extremely angry, and shouted at the purple-robed old man who had just spoken.

"Old man Li Ji!"

The person who stood up was none other than the British Duke Li Ji, and the old man didn't say anything flashy, but just spit out four words lightly, but Ashdwin Fu seemed to be choked by the throat all of a sudden, and his face became a little frightened.

No further explanation is needed. The name Li Ji is a nightmare for every Turkic person.

In the third year of Zhenguan, it was Li Ji, who was the head of the march of Tonghan Road, and Li Jing, who was the head of the march of Dingxiang Road at the time, who worked together to defeat the Turks, and Jieli Khan was captured and returned to Chang'an, and the Turks surrendered to the Tang Dynasty from then on.

Later, Li Ji was appointed as the governor of the prefecture and sat in the prefecture for 16 years. Shocking the Turks, no one dares to have different intentions, Li Ji has already been demonized in the Turks, but whenever Li Ji's name is mentioned. It's almost a child's cry.

Although Ashdwin Fu had not seen Li Ji with his own eyes, Li Ji's shock to the Turks over the years still made him feel a little cold from the bottom of his heart.

"Well, the lowly barbarians. I don't understand the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty, and I still ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to forgive me! Ashina Fu Nian, the minister of the lower country. Respectfully to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty! ”

Ashdwin Fu was suddenly too frightened to speak, but it was another Turkic nobleman behind him who had been silent and said respectfully.

As he spoke, he put his hands on his chest. He performed a Turkic ritual towards Li Hong.

Only then did Li Hong turn around and look lightly at the seemingly humble man in front of him, with a full beard, dressed in gorgeous Turkic clothes, and a respectful smile on his face.

He was extremely fluent in speaking, much better than Asdwin Fu just now.

"St. Ann!"

Li Hong Zhengse said.

He can turn a blind eye to the Asdwin Fu just now, but he is just the prime minister of a defeated country, in that regard, he is not qualified to talk to Li Hong, which is why Li Hong has been ignoring him.

But the one in front of him is different, if Li Hong is not mistaken, this person should be the current Turkic Khan Ashina Funian!

In any case, he is a Turkic khan, and his posture is so low, if Li Hong is indifferent, he will inevitably be criticized for not understanding etiquette.

"The Khan is polite! The accommodation in the city has been arranged, and in the near future, my Datang will arrange for you to meet Your Majesty, and in addition, the matter of Datang's surrender to the Turks this time will be personally responsible for Lone! ”

Li Hong's tone was very light, and there was not much respect in it, and there was even a hint of command, which made Ashdwin Fu's expression a little more angry.

But Li Hong didn't care, and even none of the officials present felt that it was inappropriate, although these people in front of him were Turkic khans and prime ministers, but a defeated country, what qualifications did they have to commit murder in front of the Tang Dynasty, it stands to reason that sending an official from Honglu Temple to greet them is already giving a great face!

It is simply unbelievable to dare to expect His Majesty the Emperor to come in person!

Even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not here for them today, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here to greet the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty's Western Expedition, and he has nothing to do with these Turkic barbarians.

Everyone present knew this, only the Turks couldn't figure out the situation, and they thought how noble their identity was?!

"It is a humble honor for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to be personally responsible! Since we have come to Datang, we should follow the rules of Datang, and I still ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to forgive us for our rude behavior before! ”

However, this Ashina Fu Nian did not have the arrogance of Ashina Fu, and continued to give a salute and said respectfully.

He didn't seem to think of himself as a Turkic khan at all, and he put himself in the position of the bottom everywhere, and his face was very humble.

Li Hong glanced at it lightly, but he was secretly vigilant in his heart.

It seems that his guess is really not wrong, this Ashina Fu Nian seems to be cowardly and incompetent, but in fact he is a very skillful character.

If he was really as humble to Datang as he said, then when Ashstewin Fu shouted just now, he should have come out to stop it, instead of waiting for Li Ji to come forward and admit his mistake!

He clearly wanted to give the people present a dismount! Let your side know that even if the Turks are a defeated country, they are not so easy to bully.

This person seems to be humble, but he can let go of his body, Li Hong is keenly aware that after such a trouble, the attitude of the officials present towards Ashina Fu Nian has changed a little, and there is no disdain and hostility when they first met.

It seems that this person is really not simple, and Li Hong now even doubts whether the Turkic civil strife was created by him, in order to firmly grasp the power of the Turks.

But if this is really the case, then this person is really too dangerous, and if he is given a few more days, I am afraid it will be another advantage.

As soon as he thought of this, Li Hong's gaze suddenly deepened a little, and even a little more regretful.

It's a pity that now I have met myself.

Let me see what you have up your sleeves.

A sneer appeared on Li Hong's face, and he said lightly.

"Let's get into town!" (To be continued.) )
