。 Late at night.

Liu Wenjing was discussing with his subordinates to wait until dawn to say goodbye to the Khan and return to the Central Plains, although Zhao Qi's words sounded a little unlikely, but he couldn't tell the difference between true and false.

In the end, I decided to go back to the center as soon as possible.

"Liu Fu, has the messenger been sent out?"

"Back to the old man, Xiao Ji had already sent Liu Gui and ten guards to go south first. The little one has already instructed them according to the master's words, this time not to go to the grassland, but to return to Hedong from Hexi, out of Dunhuang, and take the Hexi Corridor. As long as we wait for the Yumen Pass, there will be our post station there, and there will also be our carrier pigeons, which can transmit the good news of this alliance back to the Tang King in the shortest possible time. ”

Liu Wenjing nodded, "Okay, everyone rest early, and prepare to go back early tomorrow morning." ”

"Master, there is a guard of the Great Khan outside, saying that the Great Khan has something important to pass on to the Lord to discuss matters in the Golden Horde, and I heard that something happened to the east side of the river." A servant hurried into the tent to make a report.

Liu Wenjing frowned, "Coming late at night, it's a matter of Hedong again, is it really as Zhao Qi said, something happened to King Tang's side?" At that moment, he didn't dare to hesitate, immediately re-updated and hurried to the Golden Horde.

When he arrived at the Golden Horde, he found that the other five envoys of the forces allied with the Great Khan had also arrived at the tent.

They looked at each other, but they were speechless, standing on one side of each other.

A golden wolf-headed guard walked out of the golden tent, "The Great Khan has an order to send six messengers into the tent." ”

When the six people came, they were all told that something had happened to their respective Central Plains forces, and they asked them to come to discuss. At this time, everyone is worried. But he didn't talk to anyone else. Although everyone is a Han from the Central Plains, they are each serving their own master, and they are enemies rather than friends.

After Liu Wenjing entered the Golden Tent, he suddenly found that the guard did not follow in, and felt a little strange for a while. Wait until the six of them enter the golden tent. I was more and more surprised to find that there was not a single guard in the tent, only faintly seen. In the light of the fire in the tent, the Khan was lying on a small table next to the stove, and there was wine and meat on the side.

A bad feeling shrouded Liu Wenjing's heart.

Suddenly, there was another sound of footsteps outside. I only heard the sound of a bell. The flask in the hand of one of the guards fell to the ground, and with a thud he had already pulled out the change in his waist, and shouted, "What are you doing here?" Come on, come on! ”

The envoy of Li Liang in Hexi still stood there and explained, "It was the Great Khan who sent someone to come late at night to spread the word, saying that there was an urgent matter to discuss with me. ”

A jumble of footsteps sounded, and a group of golden wolf guards rushed into the golden tent with scimitars. One of the leaders of the guards walked briskly in front of the Khan of Shooting. But to his horror, he found that the Great Khan was silent and had died.

"The Great Khan has ascended to heaven!"

A loud roar rang out. Everyone in the tent changed color.

Dozens of guards had already rushed to the Khan's side, in the light of the torches. Liu Wenjing clearly saw that the Khan actually shed black and purple blood from his seven orifices.

This is poisoning and death!

Liu Wenjing's brain suddenly exploded, and her whole body was numb. He finally understood why he had been feeling uneasy just now, when the Khan suddenly came to him in the middle of the night to tell him about the matter of Hedong. But when he arrived, there were messengers from the five families of other people in front of the Golden Horde.

What's even more strange is that when they entered the gold tent, they didn't see a few guards outside at all, not even the guard who brought them in. There was not a single guard in the Golden Horde, but the Khan was poisoned and died in the Golden Horde, but the six of them stood in the Golden Horde.

Conspiracy, this is conspiracy. Liu Wenjing was terrified, and he and the envoys of the other five families were all caught in a conspiracy, and it was also a conspiracy to murder the Khan. …,

More and more footsteps were heard, and many of the nobles from the Western Turkic Khan's court arrived, followed by Daro Khan, the eldest son of the Khan, who lived in the military camp south of the Khan's court. As soon as Daluo arrived, the little Khan of Tongye Hu had also arrived in a hurry, and the last to arrive was Zhao Qi, the envoy of the Liaodong Army.

Tong Ye Hu saw his brother Shooting Khan lying stiffly on the table, and his heart couldn't help beating violently.

"Shaman, how is the Great Khan, is there any salvation?" Tong Ye Hu asked with a pretended to be anxious.

The wizard stepped forward and carefully examined the Khan, and finally shook his head, "The Great Khan is highly poisonous colorless water, this poison is like water, colorless and tasteless, just one drop can poison a tiger." The poison in the Great Khan has taken at least ten drops or more, so much poison has been mixed into the wine, and one of them will die, and he will not even have time to react. ”

"Who was it, who murdered the Great Khan?" Tong Ye Hu yelled.

One of the golden wolf guards said in fear, "The Great Khan was drinking before, but then the wine that the Great Khan liked was gone, so the Great Khan asked me to go to the warehouse to get it." As a result, when the little one came back, he saw these six damn Han people standing here. The Great Khan had fallen on the table, and the guards who were supposed to be on duty inside and outside the Golden Horde were gone. ”

Everyone's eyes turned to Liu Wenjing and the other six people, and Tong Yehu was still a little surprised when he saw these six people. Originally, he pulled Zhao Qi to borrow a thousand strong cavalry in his hands. He had long had the idea of replacing his eldest brother, but in this Khan's court, his headquarters only had 3,000 soldiers and horses, and he was still thirty miles away from the Golden Horde.

His nephew, Daro Khan, commanded the Khan's court of 30,000 soldiers and horses, and stayed in the northern camp every night, with no chance at all. He wooed Zhao Qi because he wanted to borrow Zhao Qi's 1,000 cavalry, because his soldiers and horses were in the northern military camp where Daro was staying overnight. As long as he kills Daro, he believes that in the end, he will have enough chances to compete for the throne of Khan.

But he never thought that Zhao Qi not only did not deal with Daro, but killed him silently. And he actually blamed the envoys of the six families in the Central Plains. Although there are some deviations from the plan, Tong Ye Hu is still very happy, after all, compared to Daro, his eldest brother is really difficult to deal with.

"You despicable Han people, the Great Khan is so good to you, you still dare to murder the Great Khan, come to people, push them out, break their corpses into thousands of pieces, and throw them to the grassland to feed the wolves."

When Liu Wenjing saw Zhao Qi coming in, she had already thought of who was framing her. Undoubtedly, the biggest suspect is Zhao Qi, because after they fell into this murder case, the biggest beneficiary was the Liaodong Army.

"I know, it was him, it was Zhao Qi who killed the Great Khan, and then blamed us, and he framed us." Liu Wenjing pointed at Zhao Qi and said coldly.

Zhao Qi looked at the Turkic people who were looking around at him, and laughed a few times, "Liu Wenjing, don't bite people indiscriminately when you are dying." Fortunately, I went down tonight to visit the little Khan of Daro, and then the guards who accompanied me tried a few games with the knights of the little Khan of Daro, if not, you would really be framed. ”

Daluo Little Khan looked at the eyes around him and nodded, "Ben Khan did invite the Zhao envoy who was also in the northern camp to have a banquet tonight, and his entourage also participated in the wrestling and drinking banquet, and the people on duty in the northern camp had already reported to Ben Khan just now, and the people of the Zhao envoy did not leave the camp gate tonight." ”

"Impossible!" Liu Wenjing's face was full of disbelief.

Zhao Qi sneered, "Facts speak louder than words, if it weren't for this guard brother who happened to go to fetch wine earlier, I'm afraid that it would be difficult to escape your poisonous hands." I really didn't expect you to be so insidious, but I don't know why you assassinate the Great Khan since you have already concluded an alliance with the Great Khan? Is it because the terms of the covenant are too harsh that you will be killed? ”…,

"Khan, the brothers on duty in the Golden Horde tonight have been found, all of them are in a miscellaneous tent outside the Golden Horde, and a dozen brothers are all dead, all of them have died of blood and poisoning."

"Kill them, kill them!"

Bursts of angry roars rang out.

Daluo Khan's eyes were also full of doubts, he didn't believe that Liu Wenjing and the others dared to kill the Great Khan after signing an alliance. There is neither a reason nor the ability to do so. But now all the evidence points to them, and the nobles are angry, and he is not easy to deal with.

After thinking about it, Daro Khan swept the faces of everyone in the tent and said coldly, "Keep these six people in custody, and immediately search the tents and men of the six people's mission." ”

Tong Yehu Khan said dissatisfiedly, "What else to investigate, this is all an obvious matter, the evidence is sufficient, they must be killed immediately to avenge the Great Khan." ”

Tongye's ally, Yili Little Khan, also hurriedly said, "Tongye Hu is right, not killing is not enough to calm everyone's anger, not only to kill them, but also to immediately abolish the Great Khan's original alliance with them, such people, how can we help them." ”

The other also said loudly, "Not only will we abolish the covenant, but we will also immediately send troops to kill all these damned Han people who dare to murder the Great Khan, and pay for the debt with blood!" ”

"Blood debt and blood payment!"

Daluo Khan looked at the most ferocious Tong Yehu and the others with some dissatisfaction, not to mention that the truth of the matter has not been clarified now, even if it is found out, for the sake of the interests of the Turks, they must not lead the army south to take revenge.

"This matter will be put aside for the time being, and I will send someone to thoroughly investigate this matter, and we will discuss it after everything is clear. Now that the Great Khan is dead, the country must not be left without an owner for a day, and we must bury the Great Khan at once, and elect a new Great Khan at once. Darrow said loudly.

What Daluo mentioned, even the Khan of Tongyehu cannot refute, and the so-called election of the Great Khan is just an empty word. Historically, the position of Great Khan has been designated by the previous Great Khan, and of course, if the new Khan is too weak, then other powerful royal families can also compete for this position. But Darrow has been deeply loved by the Great Khan over the years, and he is very fond of him, and the tribe and soldiers and horses in Daro's hands are the strongest among them all.

At this time, the Great Khan, as the eldest son of the designated heir to the throne, will undoubtedly ascend to the throne of the Great Khan.

Looking at the Daluo Khan, who was intimidating everyone, Tongye Huxiao Khan secretly gritted his teeth, and his eyes were full of gloomy looks. ()
