The sixteen-year-old herald, although he is a little worse than the prince of the country, is a little worse than the prince of the county.

But the key problem is that Li Hui is only sixteen years old!

This starting point of life will make many princes and princes look at each other.

According to His Majesty's temper, this Li Hui is afraid that he will continue to rise in the future, and a Lotte Marquis may also become a Lotte Gong, or even a relative prince.

In the Tang Dynasty, the Marquis of Destiny is different from ordinary marquises, as long as there are men in the family, this position can be passed on forever.

Although ordinary marquis is hereditary, there is a possibility that they can be taken back by any emperor at any time.

Passing on the fate of the Hou means that as long as the Tang Dynasty exists, the descendants of Li Hui's family will always be the Hou of the Destiny, and the children and grandchildren will be endless

None of this is said for the time being, just thinking about the sixteen-year-old Marquis is already terrifying.

Xu Shiji and Cheng Yanjin are fluctuating in their hearts, and from now on, they have to have a good relationship with Li Hui.

There are more people in the DPRK and China who help each other, and the good relationship is naturally closer, and the current situation in the court is still there

It has not reached the point of forming a party for personal gain, but the more allies there are, the more advantageous they will be in future disputes.

The two of them knew deep down in their hearts that a Lotte Hou from the third grade was not the end of Li Hui.

And with Li Hui's merits, it is not an exaggeration to be a saint under one person and above ten thousand!

The most crucial issue is that His Majesty's two children, although they are still young, seem to have already shown signs of incompatibility.

After that, if one day, when it is time to choose an heir, at that time, Li Hui will inevitably lead the general trend, stand Your Majesty, stand Li Hui, it must be right.

In an instant, both of them felt that they were getting old, the times had changed, and Datang was going to change.

Maybe it's a good thing for Datang!

But if Cheng Yanjin and Xu Shiji knew what Li Hui was thinking, they were afraid that they would vomit blood.

Li Hui didn't want to participate in the court, no matter whether he was a marquis or not, he only did one thing, and that was farming.

With the limitations of the two of them, it is impossible to imagine that a sixteen-year-old marquis, with a bright future, just wants to farm with peace of mind.

Li Jing has been leading people on the prairie for three consecutive days.

The weather was cold, and the territory where the Turks were located was like an empty field, and there was no one in sight for hundreds of miles.

"General, we're lost."

Li Jing heard the voice of the scout, and his face sank like water for a while.

The army had not seen a single Turk for three days, and had only ten days' worth of grain and grass when they came out, and water was even more scarce.

If you knew that this was the scene in the Turkic steppe, you should have brought more military rations.

Li Jing gritted his teeth, "Explore again!" Look twenty miles ahead! ”

Li Jing stood in the wind, his face was blown dry and red by the cold wind, and his soldiers were lightly armed and simple, and they had already lost contact with the large army at this time, what kind of situation was the Turks, whether Jieli Khan had returned, whether Yehu Khan was still in the army or not, whether Tuli Khan and Jieli Khan were in the same place, no one knew.

Everything became confusing in the snow.

"General, let's keep going, I always feel that we are very close to the king's tent of the Turks."

The Turkic royal tent is different from ordinary tribes, which usually have a large number of civilians, who are responsible for grazing, protecting the pasture, etc., and it is impossible for the royal tent to be in the same place as ordinary Turks.

At the very least, ten miles around the king's tent would be a place for the army to gather to protect the safety of these Turkic nobles.

The distribution of nobles is also unpredictable, and the people on the grassland are on the horse to hurry, and when they stop, they are home, as long as it is the prairie, they can camp and rest wherever they are.

The large flow of people and the change of places from time to time naturally increased the difficulty for Li Jing to go deep into the Turks and find the king's tent.

"Ma Shixiang, what do you see?"

Li Jing still attaches great importance to this deputy, it is said that Ma Shixiang used to be a salt dealer, and the salt dealers moved around the Central Plains and the grasslands a lot, and they sometimes had more experience than the scouts in the army.

"General, I always have a hunch that the Turkic King's Tent is not far from us."

"General, you see, the land here is not the same as the soil of the grassland before, it was hard and dry before, but the moist soil can already be dug out here."

Ma Shixiang grabbed a handful of soft soil from under the thick snow and put it in front of his nose to sniff.

"General, it's not wrong, there are traces of water."

"The Turks don't just rely on snow water in winter, they also dock where there is a water source."

"If the place where our army is now can vaguely smell the moisture in the soil, then there must be traces of Turkic infestation within a radius of twenty miles."

"General, if there are people within three or five miles, then it means that there is a small water source here."

"But if there's no one within a radius of ten miles, hehe......"

Li Jing looked at Ma Shixiang's smile and immediately understood.

There is no one within a radius of ten miles, and the source of water on which the moisture in the soil depends is a large vein, and the only people who are qualified to occupy the large water source in the steppe are nobles and Turkic courts.

"Okay, Ma Shixiang, if you catch someone from the Turkic royal court this time, then I will credit you when I go back!"

"It's getting late, hurry!"

On the grassland, the cold wind howled with a whimpering sound, the Turks outside the tent rubbed their hands and feet, and the heavy snow piled up nearly a hundred meters around the tent, forming a small fortress like a high bulge, but at the same time obscuring the view.

In the king's tent, a Turkic man who was not tall had a chill on his face.

"Hmph, my brother Jieli Khan has been missing for a few days, and there is no news?"

"Did the Turkic envoys in Chang'an eat dry food?"

A Turkic man with a goatee on the side clenched his fists and bowed, "Khan, on the day of the disappearance of Jieli Khan, the 100,000-strong army was wiped out in Weishui, and the envoy sent nearly 100 people to look for it, but I really couldn't find the whereabouts of Jieli Khan." ”

"Okay, from today onwards, the Turks have entered a state of alert, Ye Hu's ambition is not small, my Turki Khan and Jieli Khan are uncles and nephews on the surface, but in fact, they are serious brothers, my eldest brother's royal court, no one should want to get involved!"

Tuli Khan gritted his teeth, "Where is Ye Hu'er now?" ”

"Back to Tuli Khan, Yehu Khan is now going to Fengzhou."

Tuli Khan's eyes suddenly turned cold, "He went to Fengzhou, it's not good!" He's going to usurp the throne! ”

"Someone, five thousand elite soldiers, follow me to Fengzhou immediately!"

The Turki Khan was in a hurry, and when the Jieli Khan left with an army of +10,000, he was given a task, that is, to take advantage of the time when the army was gathered in Fengzhou, to eliminate the Turkic tribes with dissidents.

Now, the mission of the Turki Khan has been completed, but the Jieli Khan has lost news.

Ye Hu Khan went to Fengzhou, that is to recover military power!

The Turki Khan immediately realized the danger.
