Hassan and Hussein almost grew up together, when they were young, their father Ali did not become a caliph as beautiful, so powerful, and even very poor, although not a mother, Hassan and Hussein grew up together in this environment The relationship is still very good.

In particular, they spent the most difficult time of their lives, when their father Ali was assassinated by the fanatical followers of the Hawariji sect, and under the political frenzy, the two seemed to be abandoned by the whole world.

Under such suffering, the relationship between the two is incomparable, in comparison, Hou Jie, who joined later, does not know how much worse he is emotionally.

But this has also become Hussein's disadvantage, he is too familiar with Hassan, so familiar that he ignores the change in Hassan's identity, he is no longer the eldest brother who once suffered together, but the caliph, the emperor of the Arab Empire! He is alone, and all are courtiers.

And Hussein's personality is too upright, he will say what he has to say, and he will have a temper, and he has made Hassan unable to come to the stage several times, although Hassan still entrusts Hussein with important tasks, but the gap between the two is still born bit by bit.

This is Hou Jie's advantage, he knows too well what the emperor is!

The emperor is not a thing at all, cold-blooded and murderous for the sake of power, ruthless, indifferent, not to mention far away, the former emperor Li Shimin is a big example of Hou Jie.

For this position, the eldest brother Li Jiancheng, who grew up together with the army, killed the enemy side by side, and killed a bloody road from the dispute at the end of the Sui Dynasty, did not even blink his eyes when he killed his younger brother Li Yuanji, and the killing of the East Palace and the Qi Wangfu can really be called a complete killing, Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji's eleven sons were killed, and even Li Chengming, the king of Ruyang, who was still in infancy, and Li Chengyi, the king of the giant deer, did not escape the catastrophe.

Li Shimin also snatched his wife and brother Concubine Yang into the palace, removed his brother's mansion from the clan register, and made Li Jiancheng a mess.

If this is not enough for Hou Jieming, then what he has experienced is definitely unforgettable.

In the seventeenth year of Zhenguan, Hou Junji's rebellion, although he repeatedly felt Hou Junji's exploits in the court, and rescued him on the battlefield several times, but the result, in addition to showing Li Shimin's nostalgia, Hou Junji's more than 300 mouths in the mansion were not the first to show the public, and they were all killed, so that Hou Jie changed from a little young master who was feared by everyone to a sinner in the court, and followed his sister to Liangzhou in a hurry.

If it weren't for the then King of Shuo, Li Jie, who wanted to find the treasure left by Hou Junji, the future consequences of the two would be really uncertain and unimaginable.

Looking at the later, the same is the power struggle, Li Shimin did not hesitate to exile his son Li Jie to the flatulent and barbaric Lingnan of Fujian, for the sake of rights, Zhenguan sons did not hesitate to fight each other, desperately fighting, after a series, Hou Jie's true meaning of the emperor is a thorough memory, the emperor, can laugh and laugh with you like an old friend peacefully, but once you violate the foundation of his rights, he will definitely turn his face ruthlessly.

Although he did not order Hussein to be taken down on the spot, Hassan still ordered Hou Jie to monitor Hussein with all his might, and also handed over part of the power of the caliphate guards to Hou Jie, you know, the 30,000 caliph guards selected from the 500,000 desert cavalry are the most basic guarantee of Hassan's rights, and he has never given the military power to anyone else before, for Hussein, he was stunned to spit out this part of the troops.

Coming out of the pavilion, rubbing the Arabian talisman made of part of the sheep's skull in the palm of his hand, looking back at the hazy figure in the fluttering pavilion, a fat fat man roared desperately on it, and a faint roar came out of it, looking at all this, a rich sneer flashed on Hou Jie's face.

The fat man, the eunuch of the Khalid family, who had just led the way, appeared quietly beside Hou Jie at some point, saluted without saying a word, and casually threw the sheep skull in his hand to him, Hou Jie sneered and ordered: "Tell the left general of the caliph guard, Hay, that Ben Emir is waiting for him in the mansion tonight!"

Bowing respectfully, the fat eunuch quietly turned his head and hurriedly walked back, just two steps, but Hou Jie suddenly stopped him from behind.

"Wait!"

The fat eunuch turned his head in surprise, but Hou Jie smiled and untied the money bag from his waist and went directly to the fat eunuch's hand.

"You're doing a good job today, go get on errands."

There was no surprise at all, carrying the money bag, the fat eunuch bowed again and continued to walk out.

Defeated the Khalid family in politics and castrated him all by Hou Jie, but only Hou Jie, the governor of Syria, was so interested in the trivial things that happened around the caliph that he was willing to spend a lot of money, and in order to survive, the fat eunuch sold himself to the devil again.

And Hou Jie knew that the money he spent was always worth it, so he glanced at the envious eunuch on the side, clapped his hands, and Hou Jie walked out with a smile, but when he walked around the corner, Hou Jie suddenly turned around and hooked his hand again.

"You, come and help Ben Emir."

Immediately, as if chosen by God, the lean eunuch in the corner hurried over in three steps and two steps

…………

Another peaceful day passed slowly, Damascus did not seem to change at all, the Arab warriors were still rampant, the Persians, Jews, Semites, Egyptians at the bottom were still fighting for their half-starved stomachs, but there always seemed to be a kind of restlessness in the calm.

In the end, it was still related to the more than 100,000 Arab troops on the front line, who got grain from Hou Jie's warehouse, and early the next morning, Meslemai hurried out of the city from the west gate of Damascus with more than 100 carts, and transported the military grain to the front line with camels and carts from the Damascus government.

Seeing such a large convoy out of the city, in the market, many heroes couldn't help but look at each other, and then followed behind and went out of the city.

Mixed in with the crowd, Li Que, who was dressed in the traditional robe of Arab women, and only showed a pair of eyes, seemed to be inconspicuous at all.

Like all Arab women, he hurried with his head down, but when he passed by the city wall near the city gate, Li Que glanced vigilantly left and right, and then squatted down, drew a triangle on the rammed earth city wall, and immediately dropped the painting stone and hurried out of the city.

In the next quarter of an hour, many people passed near the city wall, and if you looked closely, several people passed by here, and when they looked at the triangle that looked like a naughty boy talking casually, their pupils dilated unnaturally, and then they hurried towards the city gate, and ran out.

The crowd of people came and went like ants, coming and going, and even the beggars leaning on the city wall were replaced by two, and in the end, a group of brightly dressed and brightly dressed Arab cavalry stopped in front of the wall, and the handsome middle-aged Arab man at the head also looked left and right, and finally his eyes stayed on this strange triangle.

There are also two small prototypes in the center of the triangle, like a hollow skull, seeing this, a rich sneer is revealed at the corner of Hussein's mouth, and he suddenly raised his hand, and the Arab cavalry of as many as 100 people stopped as if it were one person.

Jumping off his horse, approaching the triangle, and looking up and down several times, Hussein took out a small notebook from his bosom, and when he opened it, he was also painted with all kinds of strange figures, large and small, and on the third page, one picture was exactly the same as the one spent on the corner.

The sneer was even stronger, and Hussein snorted disdainfully: "Ben Emir said, how could Hou Jie, a lowly Tang man who is as stingy as a maggot, be so generous with the general's salary allocated to the army of the Western Front, and he really used the people of the eagle's nest to talk about the military salary to snatch it back."

"The emir is wise."

The voice of old and hoarse flattery came from behind him, and an old Persian man with a face covered with wrinkles and scars bowed respectfully.

"No need to flatter, it's still your credit for discovering these little tricks of the vulture nest, and when you go back to Mecca, Ben Emir will be rewarded for your deeds."

He waved his hand quite boldly, and then Hussein's deep brown pupils narrowed dangerously, and he said with murderous intent.

"This time, we must expose the true face of Hou Jie, a cunning and sinister poisonous snake, catch those despicable Assasin in the eagle's nest, and let that despicable Tang man have nothing to say, soldiers of Allah, follow me!"

Hussein roared and turned on his horse again, and more than 100 Arab cavalry immediately complied, following Hussein's back all the way out of the city, ignoring the Damascus infantry shouting at the city gate to intercept.

Twenty miles away, lying in the shadow of the rock, the green pupils behind Li Queyin's mask were also full of murderous intent staring at the slowly marching convoy below......
