A ** in the Beijing division began with a stormy wave, but at the end, it ended in a bland and hasty ending, but under the seemingly uneventful ending, it didn't know how many unknown undercurrents and commotions were covered, of course, all of this was expected by Li Zhen - in Li Zhen's view, this situation is just the result of a multi-party game, before all parties are ready for the final battle with bayonets, only mutual compromise is the way to balance, even if your own son is the son of heaven, In the face of the general trend, he also has to condescend, not to mention the rest of the kings, the only thing that surprised Li Zhen a little was that Wu Meiniang finally hooked up with Li Zhi, which made Li Zhen have to sigh at the strength of historical inertia, and secretly awakened in his heart, he couldn't help but think of Yuan Tiangang's criticism - every time Wu is prosperous, there is trouble in Su, and now Wu has appeared, but he has never had a clue who that "Su" is, which really makes Li Zhen think about it, but Li Zhen didn't think much about it, After all, now that the matter of Beijing has come to an end, Li Zhen has to worry about the important military and political affairs of Anxi, and if he has the kung fu to guess who "Su" is, it is better to spend more time thinking about Anxi's government affairs, only by building the land of Anxi into a stable base for himself, Li Zhen will have the capital to participate in the competition for the throne, otherwise, everything will be empty.

"Mr. Mo, the matter of Jingshi is in the past, this matter is handled very properly, this king is very satisfied, well, Mr. Lao gave a word to Jingshi, Wu Meiniang's matter is covered for the time being, as for the two little eunuchs, there is no need to stay, not to mention that it is useless, but there is a danger of leaking secrets, just deal with it." In the study room of the Anxi Dadu Protectorate, Li Zhen read the news brought by the carrier pigeon, and casually passed the note in his hand to Mo Li, who was sitting opposite him, and after pondering for a while, he ordered a little casually.

"That's fine." Mo Lizi knows that the affairs of the inner palace are important, such a scandal of disorder/incest will be a bloody disaster for the royal family, if it is not used properly, not only can not get the slightest benefit from it, but may lead to a fire, obviously, it is basically impossible to count on the two little eunuchs to testify to this scandal, rather than staying in the hands may cause disaster, it is better to erase it simply, as for the death of the two little eunuchs, although some innocent, but since they are involved in the overall situation of the court, If you want to blame, you can only blame their own bad lives.

Li Zhen has been fighting in all directions over the years, and the killing spirit on his body is getting worse and worse, and he has never had any guilt about the matter that has just decided the fate of the two, and at this time, seeing that Mo Li agreed with his own opinion, he just nodded and continued: "In a few days, the envoys of the Western Regions will almost arrive, and there will be busy next, Mr. can ...... this" Li Zhen's words said this, and suddenly saw the housekeeper Wang Binghe hurriedly entering from outside, so he stopped, raised his eyebrows, although he never spoke, But there was an inquiring look in his eyes.

"Your Highness, the Xue Yantuo envoy has arrived, and Qin Tingshi has welcomed people to the Outer Domain, but Xue Yantuo's envoy asked His Highness to go to the Outer Domain, saying that there is an important matter to discuss, and Qin Tingshi can't be the master, so he sent someone to ask for instructions." As soon as Wang Binghe saw Li Zhen, he hurriedly bowed and saluted, and said very respectfully.

Oh, say Cao Cao, Cao Cao has arrived, this Xue Yantuo's people arrived quite quickly, interesting! Li Zhen only received a report the day before, saying that the Xue Yantuo envoy group had arrived in Gaochang, only two days later, he had rushed to Jiaohe City, and the speed of his trip must have been to rush with all his might, if it was not for something important, with the temperament of the grassland people who cherish horsepower, they would never act like this, and the strange thing immediately aroused Li Zhen's curiosity, and he sighed slightly, looked at Mo Li, who was smiling and silent, and said: "Mr. Mo and accompany this king to meet the envoy?" ”

"It's fine." These days, because of worrying about the political affairs of Anxi and the political situation in Beijing, Mo Li has been staying up for nearly half a month, and it is also a pleasure to have a chance to relax his muscles and bones, although it is a little bit wrong to visit Xue Yantuo's envoys with the respect of King Yue, but at this time, seeing Li Zhen's proposal, Mo Li did not say anything against it, but just smiled, got up, followed Li Zhen out of the mansion, and rode his horse to the outer domain at the west end of the city.

B lost the tie, Xue Yantuo's envoy, the younger brother of the current Xue Yantuo Khan Yi Nan, in his early fifties, burly, very heroic, but he is a person who is well versed in Sinology, a mouthful of Chang'an official dialect is extremely fluent, and the standard of his accent is even stronger than that of Qin Wenhua, the history of Jiaohe Thorn, at this time, B lost his mouth and Qin Wenhua exchanged views on some difficult issues in Confucianism, and they talked very harmoniously with each other.

"Your Highness, this is Xue Yantuo Zheng Causing Yi to be distracted." Qin Wenhua hurriedly walked a few steps, came to Li Zhen's side, bowed slightly, saluted, turned sideways, stretched out his hand, and introduced Yi Lost to Li Zhen.

"Foreign Minister Xue Yantuo is making Yi lose his zag to see His Royal Highness the King of Yue, His Royal Highness's prestige is far away in the desert grassland, and the foreign minister has admired it for a long time. Yi Zha stepped forward, bowed to Li Zhen, covered his chest with his hands, and said with reverence on his face.

"Your envoy is polite, this king is also an ordinary human ear, your envoy can come to congratulate the full moon of the dog, this king is deeply honored, please take this king to convey this king's thanks to the khan of your country." Li Zhen had already learned about the loss of Yi from the intelligence of "Rising Sun", and knew that this person had studied in Chang'an for many years, was an authentic Tang Tong, and was also the most insistent person in Xue Yantuo's court to reconcile with the Tang Dynasty.

"Your Highness is polite, please inside." Seeing that Li Zhen did not have the slightest arrogance, Yi Zha showed a flattered expression on his face, bowed down, made a gesture of invitation, and welcomed Li Zhen and his party into the outer domain.

"Good tea!" Yi Zha picked up the tea bowl in front of him, took a sip, and couldn't help but shout: "Good tea, the foreign minister has never drunk such good tea since he returned to the grassland, as soon as he drank this tea, the foreign minister remembered the scene in Chang'an in the early years, the Tang Dynasty is also, when today, the day Khan also!" ”

Uh-huh, what kind of medicine is sold in this old boy's gourd? Li Zhen didn't believe that B lost his za and hurriedly invited himself to come just to say such a big thing of admiration, but for a while he couldn't guess what B wanted to do, but because of Anxi's many government affairs, Li Zhen really didn't want to waste more time to play the trick of going around in circles, and he couldn't bear to talk to B lost his hand and talk about those polite words that were not very nutritious. just smiled and said straight to the point: "What is the important matter for your envoy to see this king in such a hurry?" ”

According to the diplomatic etiquette of the current era, Li Zhen is the lord, and his position is noble, and he can take the initiative to come to visit Xue Yantuo's envoys, which can be regarded as giving Xue Yantuo a lot of face, but there is no reason to ask someone to directly explain his intention as soon as he sits down - according to diplomatic practice, they always have to praise each other, and after expressing their admiration for each other, they can talk about business, how can Li Zhen do diplomacy like this, of course, because of the strength of the Tang Dynasty and the might of the Anxi Army, Li Zhen is in an absolutely strong position, no matter what he says, There's no reason to oppose it, is there?

"Your Highness, this is the case, ah, this ......" Yi lost his eyes obviously didn't expect Li Zhen to act in accordance with diplomatic conventions, and for a while some people couldn't react, he was stunned for a moment, and then he said with a smile, but he stopped halfway through the words, and just glanced at the people beside Li Zhen.

Well? What the hell does this old boy want to do? Li Zhen knew that he wanted to talk to him alone as soon as he saw Yi's lost appearance, but he couldn't think of anything between Anxi and Xue Yantuo who had to avoid everyone's ears and eyes, so he couldn't help frowning, and finally waved his hand and said, "It's better to retreat." Li Zhen's words were not very different from the holy decree in the land of Anxi, and when everyone saw Li Zhen's order, they all bowed down and retreated, and only Li Zhen and Yi were left sitting opposite each other in the hall.

"Your Highness, please forgive your sins, it's not that the ministers are rude and illegal, please ask Your Highness This is not the intention of the ministers, but someone else wants to meet with Your Highness, if there is any offense, please forgive Your Highness." Seeing a slight impatience on Li Zhen's unhappy and angry face, Yi Zha hurriedly got up, bent over, and said with an apologetic face.

"Oh?" When Li Zhen heard this, she was really a little surprised, raised her eyebrows, glanced at Yi Zha and said, "What about people?" ”

"Your Highness, please wait, and allow the minister to summon it." Seeing that Li Zhen had no intention of blaming, Yi Zhanzha secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said busily.

"Well, this king just waits, and your envoy will please take care of yourself." Li Zhen waved her hand lightly and motioned for Yi to go and invite someone.

"Thank Your Highness for your forbearance, and the ministers will retire." B. bowed respectfully, exited the hall, and went to the backyard to ask for no mention.

People came very quickly, not long after B lost his band, a man wearing a masked hat turned out of the back hall, this person is burly, the pace is steady and powerful, because of the veil on his hat, I can't see the true face of this person, Li Zhen has a good memory, and immediately found that this person's body has a sense of familiarity, it seems to be an acquaintance, just guessing, but I saw the person approaching, and lifted the hat, revealing a face with a slight wry smile.

"Is that you?" Li Zhen was taken aback at a glance, although he was still sitting still, his body couldn't help but tremble—the person who came turned out to be the eldest son of Xue Yantuo Khan Yinan!

"It can surprise His Highness, Xiao Wang can be regarded as avenging the defeat of the year, hehe, there are friends from afar, it is not pleasant, His Highness will not welcome this uninvited guest." Magnanimity smiled and said.

Li Zhen's first battle to become famous in the world is to fight with the generous set in front of him, to this day, the cruelty of the bloody battle of the gods, Li Zhen will be afraid every time he thinks about it, if there is a little accident at the time, let alone set up a reminiscence with Dadu here, it is difficult to say whether there is such a person as Li Zhen in this Tang Dynasty, but well, after all, Li Zhen won that battle, as the victor, Li Zhen is very tolerant, at this time, seeing Dadu's ridicule, he immediately laughed and got up, Looking at the eyes of Da Du She, he said: "His Royal Highness is a rare guest, and this king is very welcome, so what is there to cooperate with this king?" ”

Dadu didn't sit down, stood and said: "Hehe, Your Highness is always bold, ha, if Xiao Wang said that he came to congratulate His Highness's eldest son on the full moon, presumably His Highness will scoff at it, and then, Xiao Wang will say it bluntly, Xiao Wang plans to negotiate a deal with His Highness, and the object of this transaction is the Western Turks." ”

The Western Turks were the main enemies of Li Zhen's trip to Anxi, although he had just won a big victory before, driving most of the Western Turkic forces north of the Tianshan Mountains, but well, Li Zhen is also very clear: in terms of Anxi's existing strength, at most it can only do this step, and there is still a lot of preparatory work to be done if you really want to set foot in the north of the Tianshan Mountains - in addition to solving the two major tasks of Yizhou Thorn Shi Wang Bolt and Qiuzi Kingdom, you must first stabilize the existing territory, at least before next autumn there is no strength to send a large army to attack the Western Turks, At present, the reason why Anxi is training his troops and horses, putting on a posture that seems to be ready to attack all sides at any time, is actually a bluff and showing strength over the enemy, which is not enough for outsiders, therefore, Li Zhen is not really interested in Dadu's words to express his intention to join forces with himself to attack the Western Turks, but he did not refuse, but asked with a smile: "Oh? This king is very curious, Your Highness, please sit down and say, how to deal with it? ”

Dadu set is also the master of leading the troops to fight in the Quartet, very bold, and did not be polite to Li Zhen, arched his hand and sat down, no matter who drank the tea on the hand, he drank it all at the end, then laughed, put down the tea bowl casually, looked at Li Zhen and said: "Your Highness must have heard about it, the Western Turk five crossbows have lost their parts, according to reliable sources, the five tribes of the Ashina Serro coalition announced a break with the Western Turkic royal court, ready to set up another royal court, although the war has not yet started, but it is also soon, this battle is over, The Western Turks will be powerless, and if they don't take it, won't they live up to the good intentions of God, and Your Highness can care? ”

Nonsense isn't it? If Lao Tzu had no intention, how could he let Ashina Therro go, this situation is still the result of Lao Tzu's deliberate connivance, why do you need your kid to point out! Li Zhen was secretly amused in her heart, but her face was very calm, and she looked at Da Du indifferently and said, "What if you have intentionally, what if you have no intention?" ”

"If His Royal Highness is intentional, Xiao Wang should be able to help His Highness, if His Royal Highness is unintentional, hehe, Xiao Wang will do it himself." Magnanimity smiled and said casually.

Damn, you dare to snatch food from Lao Tzu's bowl, count you as a cow! Li Zhen scolded secretly in his heart, but he also knew that although Xue Yantuo had been defeated by the Tang army two years ago, in fact, it did not hurt the fundamentals, it was still the most powerful country around the Tang Dynasty, and its military strength was only stronger than that of the Western Turks, if Xue Yantuo also planned to meddle in the affairs of the Western Turks, then it would be a big trouble, even though Li Zhen was not afraid, but he was also quite tricky, but well, showing timidity has never been Li Zhen's style, at this time, seeing that Da Du set up to say cheerfully, Li Zhen just smiled coldly and said: " The joke told by His Highness is not funny at all, but the king wants to know if this intention is the intention of His Highness, or is it from the intention of Erfu Khan? ”

Li Zhen's martial arts are already amazingly high, coupled with the bloody murderous aura all over his body, such a cold face, a huge coercion to the extreme, immediately enveloped the magnanimous set, Rao is magnanimity is also a battle-hardened general, but he couldn't help but shudder, stunned for a moment, and then said with a wry smile: "Your Highness is smiling, the little king is here, and my father Khan doesn't know." ”

"Oh?" As soon as he heard Dadu's statement, Li Zhen's heart suddenly moved, guessed the hidden secret, and took back the coercion that had been released, and said with a smile: "In this way, His Royal Highness is planning to make a private deal with this king, so okay, let's talk about the details." ”

Dadu is also a thoughtful person, at this time when he saw Li Zhen's look, he knew that he couldn't hide it from Li Zhen, so he said without concealment: "Since Xiao Wang led the army, he destroyed the four countries, subdued the seven tribes, talked about military exploits, talked about popularity, although Xiao Wang is not as good as His Royal Highness, but in Xue Yantuo there is no one who can get out of Xiao Wang's left, but since Xiao Wang Shuozhou was defeated, he was framed by the villain, and now, alas, Xiao Wang's current state of mind, only His Royal Highness can know it, if he is not self-reliant, everything will be closed, therefore, Xiao Wang wants to form an alliance with His Royal Highness, support each other, if His Royal Highness agrees, As soon as His Royal Highness sent troops to the north of the Tianshan Mountains, a certain Zidang led the army to attack from the Altai Mountains, attacking back and forth, in order to break the Western Turks, and the land that was trapped, Xiao Wang did not take the slightest, all belonged to His Royal Highness, so it could be done? ”

Hehe, dare to love this kid with such an idea, ha, it's interesting! Li Zhen has never relaxed the infiltration of Xue Yantuo, although it is not yet possible to cut into the highest level of Xue Yantuo, but there are not a few nails that can be placed in the various tribes of Xue Yantuo, as far as the news sent back by the "Rising Sun" is concerned, Xue Yantuo's Khan court changes can not be concealed from Li Zhen - since the defeat of Dadu Zhenguan in Shuozhou in the fifteenth year, the name of his metropolitan governor has been cut down, not to mention, he has also suffered a crushing defeat in the battle for succession, and he was framed by his younger brother Bazhuo, and ended up with a distribution border, and most of his troops and horses were cut off. At present, he is stationed in the Chaxi Lintole area of the Hami region of Anxi, and his situation is really quite similar to Li Zhen, who was also "dispatched" to Anxi, so he will only say what his state of mind can only be understood by Li Zhen.

Dadu is not a mediocre talent, and the combat effectiveness of the black wolf army under his command is also really strong, if he can send troops to help Li Zhen, sweeping the Western Turks will naturally have a lot of chances of winning, but the question is whether Dadu can set up, or whether it is worth trusting is difficult to say, besides, avoiding the imperial court and forming an alliance with his prince in private is not a trivial matter, once it is spread, it is by no means a joke, even if Li Zhen is bold and reckless, he will not dare to make such a decision easily, besides, in case Dadu sets up a black to eat black, That's a lot of fun, isn't it? I didn't eat the mutton, but I caused a commotion, so I was generous and said sincerely, but Li Zhen was not moved, just smiled, got up and said: "This matter is not trivial, and let the king consider one or two, His Royal Highness has worked hard from afar, so he will rest in this hall first, and after a few days, the king should set up a banquet to wash the dust for His Royal Highness, and leave." As soon as the words fell, he didn't give Dadu a chance to say anything, and went out with a smile.

"Your Highness, go slowly, Xiao Wang won't send it." Seeing that Li Zhen was leaving, Dadu didn't force him to stay, but he just got up and sent Li Zhen to the entrance of the hall and turned back to the back hall, his face was flat, but his steps were heavy, and his eyes were shining, and no one could see what he was thinking......
