Li Xuan stood on the earthen platform and calmly looked at everything around him.

In the distance, above the Weishui, there are many shadows of boats.

The main road to the south is full of traffic.

Up and down the earthen platform, the grass and trees are lush and swaying with the wind.

"Come on, set the wine." Li Xuan turned sideways and snorted, and the next moment, Li Zhu had already led someone to carry a low table from behind.

Wine jars, wine bottles.

Yao Chong personally stepped forward and poured wine for Li Xuan, Ashina Nishulu, and Ashina Gana.

"Two, in the past two years, the catastrophe of heaven and earth, between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks, the people have suffered many disasters, if it is placed in the early stage of Zhenguan, perhaps there have already been steppe Khans led troops to Chang'an, plundering wealth, but now, the situation is easy, the offense and defense are deformed, and the Turks surrender to the Tang Dynasty......"

Li Xuan's eyes fell on Ashina Nishulu and Ashina Gana, looking at the solemn expressions of the two, he smiled lightly: "Find an opportunity to have a serious and in-depth conversation between Datang and the grassland...... The king has also learned about the affairs of the grassland, and there are only a few people who have suffered from the disaster, as long as they are seriously giving, they will still be safe until next year. ”

Ashina Nishulu and Ashina Gana glanced at each other, their eyes full of surprise.

They couldn't believe that the famous King of Nanchang would say such naïve things.

Looking at the expressions on the faces of the two, Li Xuan continued to speak: "Between Datang and the grassland, each has its own specialty, but the rice and noodles of Datang should still be eaten by the grassland tribes...... If it is when Datang transports rice and noodles to the grassland, and at the same time can transport some cow wool and skins from the grassland, it will not be a loss......"

After a slight pause, Li Xuan continued to speak, and said: "And this king found that over the years, although there have been Turkic people walking on the trade route between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks, the bosses behind them are all Han people. ”

Ashina Nishulu finally understood that Li Xuan didn't understand the truth, but he was looking for a way for the two sides to coexist from the overall situation.

Ashina Nishu slowly spoke: "What the prince said is indeed credible, after the last general returns, he will write to the chiefs of the various tribes in the grassland, let them negotiate and deal with it, and at the end of the year, when the dynasty is over, I just came to ask the emperor for permission." ”

Li Xuan smiled gently and said, "Then Zhonglang will have to hurry up, otherwise, some people may not be able to reach Chang'an at the end of the year." ”

Ashina Nishu was slightly stunned, and then his face suddenly became ugly.

Li Xuan ignored Ashina Ni's familiar expression, continued to speak, and said: "Actually, you don't have to ask for speed, it's okay to be slow, if you can't do it this year, just next year, if it doesn't work next year, the year after tomorrow, Zhonglang will always have a day to convince them." ”

After a slight pause, Li Xuan looked at the dense mountains in the northwest and said softly: "To be honest, this king really wants to go to the grassland one day, and I can't really have a good time with the heroes of the grassland." ”

"The prince's means are clever, and I am afraid that no one on the grassland can match it." Ashina Gana finally spoke, but there was a hint of undetectable sneer in his eyes: "But I'm afraid the prince will have to be busy with the affairs of Tibet first, if those things want to end, I'm afraid it will take three or five years." ”

"yes." Li Xuan nodded unexpectedly and said: "The matter of Tubo, it does take a little time, take Qamdo, and then march to Luo, take Luo, let alone go west, cross Zhangxiong, rush to the snowy mountain, then you will reach the Western Regions, maybe you can have a good drink with the chieftains of the Western Turks." ”

Ashina Nishulu and Ashina Gana suddenly breathed rapidly, their fists clenched, and their faces were solemn.

The Western Turks and the Eastern Turks, bounded by the Golden Mountains.

After fighting Jinshan, you can fight from the Western Turks to the Eastern Turks.

Seeing the solemn faces of the two, Li Xuan smiled and said: "As for the Eastern Turks, there are still capable people in the Eastern Turks, although this king doesn't know who he is, but he can drive the demon sect Xiao Tianzi and collude with Li Jingye, such a character is also a hero on the grassland, can the two of them solve the doubts of this king, who is this person?" ”

Ashina Nishulu and Ashina Gana's faces were suddenly stunned, and their faces immediately became ugly.

The Turks were very deceptive in their opposition to the Tang Dynasty this time.

With the Mobei Turkic tribe of Anbei Protectorate as the main force, he colluded with the Demon Sect, secretly communicated with Li Jingye, and provoked the dissatisfaction of the Tang Dynasty.

intends to let Datang send troops to Mobei, and then cut off the grain route halfway, so as to outflank it wantonly.

But the problem is that the commander of the Tang Dynasty is Xue Rengui.

After the Luoyang assassination, the emperor suddenly recalled Xue Rengui back to Chang'an, and their plans had to be suspended.

In addition, what surprised them was the return of Li Xuan and the return of Pei Xingjian.

These three men alone were enough to put enormous pressure on the Turkic tribes inside and outside the Great Wall.

Even before he got out of the customs, Li Xuan had already dealt with the increasingly stupid Turkic people in Chang'an City, Luoyang.

What shocked them even more was that Li Xuan saw the Turkic heroes hiding behind all this.

……

"Of course there's someone behind all this." Li Xuan looked at Ashina Nishulu and Ashina Gana with a smile, and said softly: "All the Turks in the south and north of the desert, inside and outside the Great Wall, as well as in Luoyang, Chang'an, were pulled together by an invisible hand almost at the same time, and this one is the real hero-level figure." ”

After taking a deep look at Ashina Nishulu and Ashina Gana, Li Xuan continued: "If this one still has the blood of the Ashina clan, then when the time comes, it is not impossible to be called a khan with military strength, what do you say?" ”

Ashina Nishulu and Ashina Gana's faces sank completely.

Li Xuan's instigation, although they were all insinuating speculations, but the two of them were very distressed.

On the grassland, it has always been a matter of strength.

This was the case with Tuli and Jieli.

The two do not deal with each other, but Jieli is the Great Khan, and Tuli is the Little Khan.

Although Tuli was dissatisfied everywhere, he was always suppressed by Jieli everywhere, and finally had to flee the grassland and surrender to the Tang Dynasty.

In the future, once the Turks are established on the steppe again, perhaps the two of them will be able to suppress it for a while with the prestige of their father and ancestor at the beginning, but after a long time, the power that that person can pull together is amazing, and it is inevitable that he will establish his own Khan Court at that time.

If he can overpower the two of them, then at that time, he will be the new male lord of the grassland.

The two of them had to bow down and obey orders.

In addition, they must always be ready to start a war with Datang, and the situation changes before and after, and their situation in the grassland may not be much better than in Chang'an.

The faces of the two were grim, but Li Xuan's breathing was already heavy.

……

"This king doesn't force the two of you, for the identity of this person, it is not difficult to investigate, which tribe on the grassland is the youngest now, the most robust, and has the bloodline of Ashina, as long as you inquire about it, as for what happened after that, there is naturally no evidence or anything, but a little temptation can also test the truth and the truth."

Li Xuan's gaze fell on the two of them, and there was already a trace of indifference.

"As long as the two of you can guarantee to persuade the Monan Zhubu to calm down a little, then those who are close to Datang will naturally be beneficial, and those who are not close to Datang will naturally have heavenly power coming." Li Xuan raised his eyes and looked in the direction of Chang'an, and said softly: "Think about it carefully, if you two sincerely help each other, I think the situation of the two in Chang'an will be much better." ”

"In addition, if the situation of the Turkic tribes calms down in the future, maybe this king will personally guarantee and escort the two back to the grassland, but at that time, the two may not really envy the life of the grassland, and there are only a few in total in Chang'an." Li Xuan sighed softly.

He still thinks that in this world, there is nothing comparable to the place of Chang'an Luoyang.

The Turks who are accustomed to staying in Luoyang, Chang'an, as long as they return to the grassland for a while, when the freshness passes, they themselves will want to return to Chang'an.

Now these are just because of some people's ambitions to bewitch the people, so they want to return to the grassland.

As long as this ambition is completely defeated, then these people's desire to return to the grassland to live will be completely gone.

Ashina Nishulu and Ashina Gana were completely silent.

Li Xuan said so much, and from his words, he could hear his strong self-confidence.

Even if the Turks rebel again, I am afraid that they will eventually be completely pacified.

Just like Emperor Taizong back then, and like today's Holy Emperor.

"If there is one day in the future, the end will follow the prince at will." Ashina Ni Shulu was the first to give up.

Li Xuan smiled, nodded and said: "I know that Zhonglang will always know the situation, this king promises, today Your Excellency returns to Chang'an, and the surveillance inside and outside the mansion will be reduced by half immediately." ”

"Is the prince sure that he can solve everything today?" Ashina Gana finally spoke.

What Li Xuan is doing here today, they all know it.

"Today, no one who comes here will want to leave easily without the permission of this king." Li Xuan's eyes were stunned, and the cold and sharp murderous aura suddenly came through the bones.

Immediately, Li Xuan laughed again, and the murderous aura disappeared without a trace as if it was illuminated by the sun in an instant.

"Two, if you have no opinion on the affairs of his day, you will drink this wine with this king today." Li Xuan lowered his body, picked up the wine bottle, and looked at the two with a smile.

"If there is another day, it will not be a burden." Ashina Ni Shulu was the first to raise the wine bottle.

Ashina Gana hesitated a little, but still picked up the wine bottle, looked at Li Xuan, and said: "If there is another day, I hope to go to Jiangnan, or other places to take a walk, and I hope that the prince can help." ”

"Okay, if there is a day in the future, when the Turks are pacified, this king will personally play, and then personally accompany him, and Zhonglang will go for a walk together." Li Xuan raised the wine bottle, then solemnly bumped into the two of them, and then drank it all in one fell swoop.

Yao Chong and Song Jing stood aside, inexplicably having a sense of familiarity.

It's like Emperor Taizong clinking glasses with Jieli here.

The gold bottle is drunk together, and the white blade is not spared.

……

Putting down the wine bottle, Li Xuan turned sideways: "Order, let the right guard pick it up, let's go back to Chang'an." ”

"Whoa!" Zhou Qian arched his hand, and the next moment, a firework had exploded in the white sky.

Li Xuan turned around, looked at Ashina Nishulu and Ashina Gana, and said softly: "Two, what is the result today, we will see it immediately, but the two of you need to listen to the order for the time being." ”

"The last general is all under the orders of the prince."
