Chapter 250: Former Sui Sect
Hearing this Kang Sumi talk about the clan of the former Sui, Li Junxian immediately paid attention to it. Because this Dingxiang is actually the last fortress used by the Turks to support the former Sui, although the actual controller here is the Turks, it is nominally the last city of the Sui Dynasty in China, and there is also a Sui Dynasty's clan, a system of hundred officials. Therefore, if this Sui Dynasty is not completely destroyed, then I am afraid that Li Shimin's throne may not be able to do it at ease. And this attack on Dingxiang, even if he didn't catch the old thing Jieli, it was a great achievement to capture this Sui Dynasty clan. In fact, no one expects to be able to catch Jieli, because this Jieli runs faster than a rabbit, and he will definitely not wait here to be caught.
As for Kang Sumi's asking Li Junxian if he wanted to meet these Sui Dynasty clans, of course Li Junxian wanted to meet them, otherwise how could he be considered caught? This kind of thing must be verified to be correct, and the wrong person cannot be caught. If you catch the wrong person, it will be a big problem, and you will inevitably be sued at that time. Therefore, Li Junxian must verify the authenticity.
Li Junxian came to the place where the Sui Dynasty clan was detained, which was not very good, and it was only better than ordinary people's homes. I'm afraid that this is because Kang Sumi knew that this was the clan of the former Sui and Li Shimin's enemy, so he didn't take good care of it.
"Knock knock......" Li Junxian knocked lightly on the door first, after all, etiquette still has to be there.
Someone inside soon opened the door, it was actually a woman in her thirties, and it was full of mature atmosphere, Li Junxian didn't know who she was, so he immediately asked.
"Madame, may I ask who you are?" Li Junxian asked.
The woman said, "General, in Xia Xiao, is the empress of the former Emperor Yang of Sui. ”
Hearing that this woman claimed to be Empress Xiao, the empress of Emperor Yang of Sui, Li Junxian immediately said: "Nonsense, Empress Xiao is over sixty years old, how can it be that you are so young?" ”
"General, I am indeed Empress Xiao. It's just that it's better maintained. I seem to have been born with a lack of age, so I'm still in my sixties as I am now. General, can you tell me who you are? Empress Xiao said.
Li Junxian suddenly remembered a rumor in history, that is, Empress Xiao of the Sui Dynasty had followed many men. In addition to the genuine Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, there is Yu Culture, Dou Jiande, and Turkic Khan. Even, in the end, it was rumored that he entered Li Shimin's harem. Of course. These may be historical anecdotes, so they can't be taken seriously. But maybe it was Empress Xiao's talent that allowed him to be young for a long time, so someone sent out this message evilly, or it was simply the emperor of the Tang Dynasty who made people spread it, as for the intentions, it is difficult to say.
"I'm Li Junxian!" Li Junxian replied.
"That Li Junxian, who suffered heavy losses to the Turks and bled heavily?" Empress Xiao asked.
Li Junxian nodded and acknowledged this.
"General Li is really a young talent, and he should be less than thirty now, right?" Empress Xiao asked.
"I'm just twenty years old, to be exact." Li Junxian replied. This age question is not a secret, so Li Junxian also answered directly.
"General Li is really a hero, he defeated the Turks at such a young age, he must have a bright future in the future, right?" Empress Xiao asked.
Li Junxian only replied lightly: "It's okay!" ”
"General Lee. What should we do with the former Sui clan? Empress Xiao asked.
When Li Junxian heard this, he immediately knew that the point was coming. Now these former Sui clans are most concerned about their fate, whether they will be killed or how they will be killed. According to the general tradition. Most of the royal families of the previous dynasty were to be killed, and this was to cut off the ambitions of the previous dynasty to restore the country. However, there were also some generous emperors. Instead of killing the clan of the previous dynasty, they will reward them and entrap those former ministers of the previous dynasty. But no matter what the emperor did, it was impossible for the clan of the previous dynasty to obtain actual rights.
According to history, Li Shimin did not kill this Empress Xiao, but let him retire with peace of mind. Empress Xiao did not die until she was in her eighties, which can be said to be super long in ancient times, and she can envy countless people who died in ancient times. More than eighty, even in the twenty-first century, few can reach it, almost saying that except for Wang Zhengjun, the queen in all dynasties is his longest-lived.
"Empress Xiao, how do you think the new emperor will treat the original imperial family?" Li Junxian asked.
Empress Xiao suddenly burst into a miserable laugh and said, "General Li, are you here to cut down the grass and eradicate us?" ”
Li Junxian shook his head and said, "No, I didn't receive an order, so I won't do anything to you." Now we're going to attack the Turks, so we won't do anything to you. Your fate can only be handled by the emperor, and we as courtiers are not qualified to do so. ”
Li Junxian didn't dare to guarantee that he had crossed over, but Li Shimin would still be able to treat the former Sui royal family so favorably. Therefore, Li Junxian could not treat the former Sui clan kindly, nor could he offend too much, so he could only maintain a lukewarm attitude. For this Empress Xiao, Li Junxian has no interest. Although Empress Xiao looks only in her thirties, she is still a mature woman from the perspective of later generations, and her charm is still very strong. But when Li Junxian thought that she was actually in her sixties, she had no interest.
"General Li, what kind of person is the emperor now?" Empress Xiao continued to ask.
"The emperor is the son of heaven, and we as ministers are not well judged." Li Junxian did not answer directly.
And Empress Xiao continued to ask: "General Li, my grandson was coerced when he was born, and he didn't volunteer to be the emperor of the Sui Dynasty, please help me say good things, so that he can not end up miserable." I'm over 60, and it's good to have 60 in my life. But my grandson is only eleven years old, and he is still young, can he not let him end up like that? General Li, can you help us talk to the emperor? ”
Empress Xiao was in a hurry to go to the doctor, and she actually asked Li Junxian for it. However, at present, the only person that Empress Xiao can contact is Li Junxian, so she can only beg Li Junxian, hoping that Li Junxian can intercede.
"Empress Xiao, I'm afraid I can't guarantee this. Because this kind of thing can only be decided by the emperor, and our courtiers can only do their best. I can't give you any guarantees, I can only promise you that I can help you as much as I can. Li Junxian said.
"Okay, as long as General Li does his best, even if I go to another world, I will bless General Li and you." Empress Xiao said gratefully.
Li Junxian is actually just a favor, because he thinks that Li Shimin will let go of this former Sui clan, so it is not a big problem. This kind of favor can still be done, because there were still many courtiers of the former Sui who were officials in the Tang Dynasty, and they could gain the favor of those people by doing so.
