Three years have passed in a blink of an eye, and the lights in the Taiji Hall of Chang'an City are bright, and Emperor Li Er is picking up the lamps to review and review the folds.

The chamberlain Lao Gao sent a gilded silk book, which was a war letter from the north, on which was written the Tang Dynasty Qin Wang Qi.

"Your Majesty, Jieli ordered Zhao Deyan to send a war letter, and the five-year covenant I once made with King Qin is about to arrive."

Zhu Piyubi in Li second-hand stopped, took the battle book and opened it, and the first sentence was, "Your Excellency the King of Qin in the Tang Dynasty is like meeting, Chang'an has been separated for several years, you and I made a five-year covenant back then, which has expired, and I have been a Turkic soldier for five years, and I have prepared 200,000 elite Chen soldiers outside the pass, and I will go south to the Tang Dynasty in the near future." In order to avoid the misery of life in both countries, please be prepared, you and I can fight to the death on the border! The loser will surrender the whole country. The Turkic Khan Jieli decreed, and the minister Zhao Deyan wrote it. ”

Bang! Li Eryi slapped on the dragon case.

"Good! has been a strong soldier for five years, and my Datang has not been idle. Order, drumming and gathering generals, Gorou is not there, I am the elder brother, and I will be in charge for a while. Li Er was domineering.

What?? Driving a personal expedition?

The chamberlain Lao Gao knelt down at that time, "No, Your Majesty, think twice!" ”

"Huh? You're going to stop me? Li Er was very displeased, as an internal servant, he was only responsible for conveying, and he couldn't have his own thoughts.

"Your Majesty, the son of a daughter does not sit in the court, not to mention that you are the king of a country? It's just 200,000 grassland barbarians, it's worth your own trip. The old slave thought that if His Royal Highness King Qin was here, he would not agree with you to go to the danger. Jieli is just a defeated subordinate, so he doesn't have to give him too much face. My Tang Dynasty strategists are like clouds, famous generals are like rain, and anyone who can find anyone can take the head of Jieli. ”

The chamberlain Lao Gao is very good at talking, and he has accompanied the king for many years, and he almost knows the thoughts of the superiors clearly. If you say anything else, you may not be able to advise, but when you mention King Qin, most of your majesty will listen.

Sure enough, Li Er's expression was relieved, and he asked softly, "Is there a letter from Lingnan?" Gorou, Gorou haven't heard any news yet? ”

The chamberlain Lao Gao said with a sad face: "No, the Southern Navy has developed rapidly, and a stable route to Australia has been formed, Feng Ang passed on the throne to the second son Zhidai, he is a disciple of the King of Qin, and he will definitely increase the search for people." ”

"It's been two years since Gorou and Gorou got lost, right?" Li Er said in a deep voice.

"Two years and eighteen days. Your Majesty, King Qin is an immortal fate, since he has long expected that there will be a catastrophe, then everything must be arranged, at least there is no need to worry about safety, you don't have to worry too much, sooner or later, His Highness will come back safely one day. ”

When Lao Gao said this, he didn't know the bottom of his heart. Since the King of Qin caught up with the little princess in the extreme south of Australia two years ago, but unfortunately encountered a storm in the sea again on the way back, and lost contact since then, Lingnan has tried his best to find people for two years, but there is no trace of it, everyone never mentions the truth, only says that King Qin sailed away, and does not want to admit that fact.

"That's it, the herald, King Zhao temporarily acts as General Tiance, commanding all the soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty, this battle will be handed over to the fourth brother and the military department, and the other departments will cooperate unconditionally." Li Er commanded.

What??? Admiral Tiance to King Zhao? Your Majesty......

The waiter Lao Gao wanted to persuade, but he didn't dare to say more, Li Erxin understood, "What are you afraid of?" If the fourth brother wants the throne, whether there are soldiers and horses are the same, we are brothers, and we can't speculate. ”

What Lao Gao actually wants to ask is, since then, he has been the general of King Qin's Tiance? But where did he dare to speak out?

"Your Majesty, General Tiance ordered it to be in the Qin Palace, is it recalled?"

Li Er's face turned pale, and he said coldly: "Are you deaf?" It's temporary! Gorou will not return for a day, and Admiral will not change for a day. Li Yuanying, the king of Qin, will be the last general of Tiance in the Tang Dynasty, and the title of King of Qin will be given by the Tang Dynasty, no matter how many generations it has been handed down, it will never be awarded again. ”

A month later, on the northern border, Li Yuanba drove forward and met Jieli.

Zhao Deyan came out of the class and asked, "Dare to ask where the King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty is?" ”

"My fifth brother is not in Chang'an, and he has been sailing to the south for three years, and you can't see him today."

"What? Could it be, is it true that the rumors that King Qin disappeared at sea? Zhao Deyan exclaimed.

Li Yuanba raised his hammer and shouted angrily: "Bah! Be careful of your tongue, my fifth brother is just going out for a trip, and if you dare to talk nonsense, Lao Tzu will be the first to kill you. ”

Seeing this situation, Zhao Deyan didn't know how it was true or false, and the whole person seemed to have been drained of his spirit, and muttered in despair: "King Qin, what a King of Qin, you and I have a five-year appointment, I bothered to make a five-year appointment, but I didn't expect that you missed the appointment......"

At this moment, Li Jing, the secretary of the Ministry of War, saw the clue and said with a wild smile: "Zhao Deyan, Hugh has to think too highly of himself. There are not many people in this world who are worthy of being the opponents of His Royal Highness King Qin. If you want to fight with King Qin, you may not be qualified. I'm not afraid to tell you, although King Qin is not here, the plan to deal with you and Jieli was already set by King Qin five years ago. ”

"Oh? Seriously? Zhao Deyan suddenly came to his senses.

"That's right, King Qin has even arranged for your disposal." Old Li Jing nodded in affirmation.

"Oh? In this way, this official is extremely interested, I don't know how the King of Qin arranges for me, the enemy? ”

Old Li Jing glanced at a young general beside him, and the young general drove forward, took out a secret letter from his body, and read aloud: "Zhao Deyan is from a humble background, but he is talented and has the ability to seek the country. Because of his own miserable experience, he chose to turn his back on the Han people and become a Han thief, and was bent on subverting the Central Plains with the intention of revenge.

The ancients said that the poor must have something to hate! Although this man has done many evils, he is not hopeless. If he captures this person, he will not kill him, but give him a warm new home and let him return to the Central Plains. It's good to be able to repent of the past and spend the rest of your life in peace, you have suffered enough in your early years, and you should have a comfortable time when you are old. It would be better if he could serve the kingdom again with his mutilated body and atone for his sins.

However, in this world, all talented people are arrogant, if this person is defeated in my hands, he will not steal his life, and he will kill himself if he thinks about it, what a pity! ”

"Impossible, this can't be ......," Zhao Deyan retorted loudly.

Li Jing pointed at the young general and said, "You can see who this is." He is Xue Li, a disciple of General Tianbao, who studied under King Qin, and is the nephew of King Qin. This secret letter is a manuscript in King Qin's study, whether it is true or not, you can see for yourself. ”

Hearing this, Xue Li immediately stepped forward, solemnly handed over the secret letter, and did not forget to advise: "Uncle Shi's handwriting is precious, you write carefully, return it to me after reading it, and I will take it back to Chang'an and return it to the study." ”

Here, Li Yuanba said disdainfully: "Zhao Deyan, if it weren't for my family Wulang taking a high look at you, this king wouldn't have bothered to talk nonsense with you." Do you remember what happened back then? Everyone despises you for betraying your ancestors and forgetting your ancestors, but the fifth brother of my family pities you for your miserable background and persuades you to turn back. How much do you remember his words? ”

Zhao Deyan calmed down, the hand holding the secret letter was trembling, in fact, he didn't need to read the secret letter, just by the tone, he knew that this handwritten letter was true nine times out of ten, and if he changed someone else, he would not have the slightest politeness and mercy for himself at all.

"King Qin said that even if a person has suffered thousands of hardships, but he has a debtor and a master, he should not transfer this hatred to the head of the unprovoked, so what is the difference between those wicked people?"

"King Daren Qin, his teachings dare not be forgotten. But the loyal ministers do not matter the two masters, the victory or defeat is not yet known, and when I complete the five-year contract, Zhao Deyan will definitely give an explanation to His Royal Highness King Qin. Zhao Deyan forcibly held back the tears of emotion, it is difficult to find a bosom friend since ancient times, especially a traitor like him, who does not want to see each other, but the king of Qin, who is high above, often gives himself rare respect and understanding, but unfortunately, God is jealous of talents......

Jieli, who had been listening quietly beside him, said in a deep voice: "The bearing of the King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty, Ben Khan is also very admired. The prime minister can rest assured that if this battle is won, Ben Khan will build a royal tomb for the king of Qin of the Tang Dynasty in accordance with the specifications of the king, and treat his heirs and families well. ”

"Shut up, you old Jieli, my fifth brother is not dead yet, if you speak foul words, Lao Tzu will kill you." Li Yuanba was furious.

All the generals were angry, "Wait for 200,000 but the local chickens and dogs who are not sold by the standard, wash your neck, and prepare for failure, the matter of King Qin, don't bother." Let's get ready to welcome the tomb that King Qin has prepared for you. ”

Jieli laughed angrily, "Okay, good! Ben Khan waited and see, if he could be defeated by an opponent like King Qin, it would not be in vain. ”

After saying that, he should fight his horse and return to the camp first, and no longer stay to do a war of words.

Zhao Deyan respectfully returned the letter to the young general Xue Li, hesitated twice, and finally didn't say anything else, and followed the horse back to the camp.

Old Li Jing nodded and praised: "This Zhao Deyan is really not simple, he knows how to advance and retreat." At this time, Jieli is not there, if he dares to say anything, he will immediately lose Jieli's trust in him. ”

Li Yuanba nodded, "Let's go back too, in this battle, you must not underestimate the enemy, not only to win, but also to win wonderfully, don't embarrass the fifth brother." ”

"Order! For the sake of King Qin! ”

"For King Qin!"
