Chapter 118: Uneasy
The leader of the Hu people was named Yidi Jian, the second son of Gele Khan, the largest vassal state of the Tang Dynasty, the Hui Khanate, and like other subordinate tribes, he also came to Chang'an to pay tribute to His Majesty the Emperor Tianhan.
Originally, the matter of the party item Baqiang had nothing to do with the Hui Hu, the nature of the two was different, the party item Baqiang was attached, and the Hui Khanate was a subject country. Although it was largely autonomous economically and administratively, it was still subject to the control and influence of the Tang Dynasty.
Because the land belongs to the Tang Dynasty, the court said that this land will not let you stay, and if you want to move to another place, these attached tribes will have to migrate, and if you don't move, you will rebel; Or if the Tang Dynasty wants to fight, these attached tribes must also obey the dispatch, such as the Battle of Talas, Gao Xianzhi dispatched the cavalry of Qarlu to participate in the battle.
And it is attached to a certain period of time, and in theory, it is also necessary to symbolically pay a little tax. Not much, each middle-aged man is ten yuan a year (one meal for breakfast), women and children are five yuan, cattle, sheep and mink skins can be deducted from taxes, and the extreme poverty and the old and weak are exempt from payment. Although the money was not much, it was a way for the Tang Dynasty to express their rule.
And the subject country is completely different, the subject country is basically completely autonomous, you can do whatever you want, and they do not obey the dispatch, even if they participate in the war, it is in the nature of help, and if you don't go to the Tang Army, you can't do anything with them.
This Hui prince named Yidi Jian was bribed by An Lushan with a lot of money, and was provoked by words, saying that if he didn't help these attached tribes this time, it would be their turn to return to the Hui Khanate when they were cleaned up.
Then his blood surged, and he became the main force of this attack on Xiao Quai, plus he was young, and he was praised by the envoys of various tribes, and he felt very respected. Very rewarding. It's a little fluttery.
Hearing this, Kenichi Ling Fox Liuyun despised them so much. Immediately became happy, and jumped out: "What are you?" How dare you talk to Prince Ben like that? ”
"O prince." Linghu Liuyun smiled: "Tell me about Daoye, what kind of prince are you?" ”
Yidijian glanced at the envoys and envoys behind him very proudly, and said quite arrogantly: "Listen, I am the second son of the Khan of Dengli Khanate Dengli Wu Mi Shi Jie De Mi Shi Biga, Prince Yi Di Jian!" ”
After speaking, he glanced at Linghu Liuyun very provocatively, and said in his heart, I know that I am afraid.
Since in the sixth year. Since the founding of the Uighur Khanate, it has almost completely inherited all the strength of the Later Turkic Khanate, becoming the Great Khanate of the Eastern Pole Murwei, west to Jinshan, south to the desert, north to Lake Baikal, full of the ancient Xiongnu land, ruling over millions of people and hundreds of thousands of troops.
Such strength is not enough to compete with the Tang Dynasty one-on-one. But it is also a force not to be humiliated for more than a decade. Hui has always been the primary target of the Tang Dynasty to appease and woo, and there is no limit to its preferential treatment.
Such a situation gave the young Prince Yidi Jian a feeling that the Tang Dynasty begged them, and the Tang Dynasty was afraid of them.
When he said this, the envoys of the various tribes behind him hurriedly began to coax and praise, and Yidi Jian became more and more proud, full of anticipation that the Taoist priest opposite would apologize to him and ask for guilt.
But he didn't expect that the Taoist priest on the other side listened to him, and the mockery on his face became even stronger, he plucked out his ears and said; "What kind of bullshit khan, Dao Ye has never heard of it, and you, the prince, are even more bullshit."
"You, you dare to call my father Khan bullshit, even your emperor of the Tang Dynasty does not dare to humiliate my father Khan like this, I, I ......"
"What can you do? You're here to bite me. While speaking, Yue Mufeng had quietly taken a few steps forward, standing side by side with Liuyun, and Liuyun laughed and said: "The prince of the bullshit Khan, let me ask you, do you respect you here?" ”
Yidi Jian was stunned for a moment, and nodded subconsciously: "What's the matter?" ”
"Yes, it'll be done."
Before he could finish speaking, the two figures rushed forward like lightning, swept a few feet, almost like teleportation, and in the blink of an eye, they were already within five steps of the ground.
Although the Yidi Jian is not very good at using his brain, he is also a fierce inward-looking, and he does not dare to stand in the front alone, and there are two rows of guards standing in front.
But Mu Fengliuyun and the two of them at this time have already reached the point of super-first-class masters, and the incident happened suddenly, how can these seven or eight guards stop the two?
The two of them stretched out their hands together, grabbed the arms and shoulders of several guards who stood in the way and threw them out, and before Yidi Jian could react, Mu Feng and Liuyun each grabbed one of his shoulders and lifted him off the horse.
Then he turned around and ran, and in an instant, he rushed out more than twenty steps and returned to the Xiao Quai's personal guard brigade.
Several of the guards and envoys of various tribes saw that the health of the earth was arrested, and immediately shouted in shock, seeing that they could not catch up, and they were anxious to pull the bow and release the arrows, but they were stopped by the people next to them, and the prince was still in the opposite hand, and there were more strong bows and crossbows behind them.
Back here, Yue Mufeng let go of his hand, and Ling Hu Liuyun carried Yidijian's collar with one hand like a chicken, Yidijian was terrified, and shouted: "You don't dare to kill me, do you know who my father Khan is?" My father Khan is the Hui Khan! Even your emperor doesn't dare to kill me. ”
Linghu Liuyun laughed and said: "Ah, I'm so afraid, where is your father Khan?" Tell him to save you. ”
Yidi said urgently: "Don't kill me, I will promise you whatever you want." ”
Linghu Liuyun patted his face with the scabbard of his sword, and said with a smile: "What kind of bullshit prince, who said that he was going to kill you, hurry up and order your subordinates, where did they come from, where do they go back, I will let you go back."
Otherwise, although he won't kill you, Dao Ye doesn't dare to promise not to take off your two arms and cut off your ears and nose. ”
"You dare! My father Khan is the Hui Khan! ”
"You dare!" Several Hui guards exclaimed.
"You see if I dare." Linghu Liuyun's scabbard shook forward, and the sharp sword body popped out more than half a foot, Yidijian felt a chill above his ears, and his soul was gone, and he trembled in a crying voice:
"Go back, go back."
More than sixty Hu people, you look at me, I look at you, hesitated for two or three seconds, and finally turned the horse's head and began to retreat slowly.
Seeing this, Linghu Liuyun was also a little proud, and glanced at Mu Feng, as if saying that bullshit is really useless to be as good as the prince. Yue Mufeng frowned, always feeling that things would not end so easily.
On the other side, He Ke'er, who was standing in the Zhenlu Pavilion, also breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to turn around to see if Xiao Qu was sick. The dozen or so guards who had been blocking the outside of the pavilion before also put down their crossbows at this time and prepared to disperse.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of breaking wind, and a crossbow arrow suddenly shot out from the crowd that was about to turn and retreat, like a black lightning, shooting straight in the direction of the pavilion.
Yue Mufeng's heart froze, and he stretched out his hand to dial the scabbard in his hand, but after all, he was a little slower, and the scabbard flew by less than an inch or so against the tail of the feather arrow, and Yue Mufeng was so frightened that his heart was about to jump out.
Immediately, he heard a small and a big and two screams of "ah", Yue Mufeng was scared into a cold sweat, and while his heart was beating wildly, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling both happy and scared.
Fortunately, fortunately, these two screams were the voices of men, one was from the guards who were blocking behind, and the other was from Yidijian.
Fortunately, the man's arrow was inaccurate and he shot the guards who were blocking behind, but at the same time, Linghu Liuyun cut off Yidi Jian's ear with a sword under the rage and nervousness.
The situation was out of control almost instantly, and the Hui guards and the envoys of the various tribes who had already turned around turned around at this time, and roared loudly to let Liuyun go down quickly and move the prince Jian.
Linghu Liuyun took out his long sword and rested it on Yidi Jian's neck, and the guards behind him, Xiao Quai, raised the strong crossbow again, forming a human wall in front of the pavilion, and two guards hurriedly helped the guard who was hit by the arrow to treat the wound, while Yue Mufeng stared at the group of Hu people with his eyes, trying to find out who put the arrow.
"Let go of the prince's ......"
"Whoever dares to mess around, I'll kill him......"
"You dare, our Great Khan will not let you go......"
"There is a spy, who put the arrow, he wants to kill your prince......"
"Help......"
"If you dare to be so arrogant, that person will be unlucky......"
All of a sudden, the personnel on both sides were all emotional, shouting loudly at the other side, and they could go off again at any time.
At this moment, the fluttering snowflakes suddenly moved, and I heard the neighing of a war horse like a dragon's roar in the distance, and then I saw a white horse rushing out of the snow mist.
Just when everyone was slightly stunned, the snow-white divine horse had already rushed to the front of the two formations like a gust of wind, bringing a spiral of wind and snow behind them. This divine horse has a fierce appearance, its mane is actually a long circle under the horse's neck, a wide tiger and leopard mouth, and a long white breath spews out of its nostrils, like a fierce beast that has come out of nowhere!
Immediately, the knight was dressed in a white robe, his eyes were so sharp that people did not dare to face him, and his handsome and resolute face was full of anger as if he wanted to eat people.
The noisy shouting and shouting that was still extremely noisy stopped abruptly in an instant, and the more than 60 Hu people all showed shocked expressions, standing and watching in a daze, as if they were stupid.
"I'm the person you said Tu Xiao went to get sick, put down his weapons, no one is allowed to move, whoever moves me will kill whom!"
Immediately the knight uttered these words in a flat tone,
Immediately, the knight said the above words in an extremely flat tone, and his voice was not loud, but there was a majesty in it that people did not dare to disobey, and for a while, the sound of weapons crackling and falling to the ground was endless.
Three hours later, His Majesty Li Longji, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, who was singing and dancing for Yang Guifei in the Zichen Hall of Daming Palace, beat the drum to cheer up, learned the news.
He threw down the two drumsticks in a bit of disappointment, took the white cloth handed by a palace maid, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and waved his hand to let the singers, dancers, and musicians who performed songs and dances retreat.
When Gao Lishi finished telling what happened, Li Longji frowned a little bored, sighed, and said, "This Xiao Qu's illness, why don't you let me worry about it like this!" (To be continued.) )
