Chapter 275: The two countries are at war without slashing each other
On the side of the Turkic royal court, Jieli received the news that the Tang Dynasty had sent troops to the north, and he was surprised for a long time and didn't speak, Li Er was so ruthless, didn't he want his own son?
"Datang fights without declaring it, and I'm angry! Someone came, and ordered the tribes to raise troops to join the war. Tie up the prince of the Tang Dynasty and escort him to Dingxiang City, and the king wants him to see the defeat of the Tang Dynasty with his own eyes. By the way, there is also the bullshit envoy of the Tang Dynasty, who was tied up together, and killed the sacrificial flag during the battle. ”
The sudden change made Tang Jian dumbfounded. has been on the mission many times, or is it the first time to encounter such a situation, yesterday's delicious and delicious hospitality, in the blink of an eye, became a prisoner? Your Majesty, why don't you say hello when you go to war? Tell me to go back first and then start the war.
In the prison, Qin Huaidao asked, "Lord Tang, what's the situation?" Didn't you say that the two countries were at war and didn't come to war? ”
Tang Jian cursed: "Yes, don't cut the envoy, but who knows that Jieli doesn't pay attention to the rules?" Alas...... Huaidao and Jin Yuan, I wanted to take you out to experience the experience, but now it's good, I'm afraid that I will lose your lives. ”
Qin Huaidao said weakly: "The last general doesn't care about life and death, but I am the only son in the family, I am afraid that if I go, my parents will have no one to take care of me in the future." ”
Tang Jian comforted and said: "Don't worry, General Ling Zunqin is the founding prince, and the court will take care of it." What about you, Jin Yuan? ”
Liu Jinyuan smiled bitterly: "Xiaguan is also the only son in the family, but the old father in the family died of illness last year, and now he is alone." ”
Qin Huaidao nodded, "Then you are better than me, and you have nothing to worry about." ”
Burst...... Are you comforting me? Liu Jinyuan really wants to complain, I am the only seedling of the Liu family, so I will die, the Liu family will be extinct, how can I go underground to see my father?
While the three were talking, another bound man was thrown into the prison.
"His Royal Highness the Prince? Is it really you? Why are you even arrested? Qin Huaidao exclaimed.
How many days have passed, and I finally saw an acquaintance, and who can understand the sadness and grievances of a few months? Li Chengqian's nose was sore, and he couldn't control his howl and cried.
Tang Jian thought that he was frightened, and hurriedly leaned over to comfort: "Your Highness is not afraid, not afraid, we must find a way not to let Jieli hurt your ......"
After crying for a while, Li Chengqian seemed to have finished venting, so he stopped, and said in a choked voice: "Jieli didn't say that he wanted to kill me." ”
Yes? So what are you crying about?
"Ju Guogong, I miss my father and mother, I want to go back to Datang, I miss all of you......"
Call......
Only then did everyone react, yes, although it was the prince in front of him, he was just an eleven or twelve-year-old boy, and he was a teenager after all.
Tang Jian comforted: "It's okay, won't this come out right away." I heard that His Majesty has sent 100,000 troops north to rescue you, and Jieli is going to defend Dingxiang City, and he will definitely take you with him this time. When Datang takes Dingxiang, His Royal Highness will be fine. Don't run around willfully in the future, the outside world is very dangerous. ”
Li Chengqian nodded heavily: "Well, don't run around anymore." After a few months away from home, Gu was sold three or four times......"
Burst...... Qin Huaidao almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
On the contrary, Tang Jian and Liu Jinyuan's expressions were full of distress and sympathy, a child who did not understand the world, a rich son who had never left home, left Chang'an and went to the wilderness, and it was strange not to be sold.
Tang Jian sighed with emotion: "I've been trying every means to inquire about your whereabouts these days, but I didn't expect that the first time I met you when I came to the grassland was in this prison. It's good to see you're okay, though. They didn't abuse you, did they? ”
Li Chengqian sobbed and said: "At first, they kept humiliating me, and sometimes they didn't give me food. Jieli is very treacherous, and he wants to trick me into being his son, hmph, Lone is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, but he has backbone. Rather die than submit. Later, Zhao Deyan said good things for me in front of his brother-in-law, and they let me go. ”
"I'm by Zhao Deyan's side these days, although he is a bad person, he patiently teaches me the truth every day. Alas...... If this was in the East Palace, if he had been a teacher for me in the East Palace, maybe I wouldn't have run away from home. It's a pity that he is the enemy. ”
Tang Jian pondered for a moment and said, "Zhao Deyan does have the talent of a prime minister. It's a pity that Mingzhu secretly threw himself into the Turks, and was loyal to the Turks. Your Highness must not be fooled by him. Back in Datang, there is naturally a better teacher than him. ”
Li Chengqian nodded: "Well, Gu understands, in fact, a lot of what he teaches is similar to what his brother-in-law taught." Maybe he really taught me, even if it was like looking at my brother-in-law's face, as he said...... Ju Guogong, do you say that your brother-in-law is really so powerful? He's a sworn enemy of the Turks! There is a deep hatred in the sea of blood, and Zhao Deyan was defeated by his knife and neck at the beginning. They didn't even hate their brother-in-law, and they seemed to admire it very much. ”
Tang Jian couldn't help but laugh after hearing this.
Qin Huaidao corroborated: "When Yumen Pass was first fought, I was on the scene. Brother Xiao is indeed as rumored, invincible in the world, and one person can be an army. once fought alone into the enemy formation, captured Zhao Deyan like a bag, and forced him to retreat. ”
Tang Jian explained: "Didn't His Royal Highness like Hu culture since he was a child? Why don't you know Hu people's temperament? ”
Li Chengqian lowered his head in embarrassment: "Lone was just curious about the eating, drinking and merrymaking of the Hu people before, but I didn't know they were so cruel...... But not in the future, if there is a chance in the future, we must exterminate this group of barbarian tribes. ”
Tang Jian sighed and said: "How difficult it is to solve the trouble of the grassland, all dynasties have had a headache, and it is naturally good for His Highness to have lofty ambitions." ”
"That's it, let's talk about the temperament of the Hu people. Although the Hu people are brutal and murderous, they do not talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality. But it also has its own set of understandings. For example, worship the strong. ”
"It is true that the champion Hou turned to the Turks for thousands of miles, making the entire Turks hate him like the sea. But I have to admit that the Turkic defeat in that battle was a mess, not because the Turks were weak, but because the champion Hou was too strong. so strong that even opponents have to admire. ”
Speaking of this, Tang Jian sighed with emotion, "Maybe it's because God is jealous of the talent, or maybe Jieli knows that the frontal battlefield is no match for the champion Hou, so he can only send someone to assassinate him, if the Hou Ye doesn't die, don't say that if he raises troops to the south, they won't dare to rob the border." ”
Qin Huaidao echoed: "That's right, if Brother Xiao is still here, they won't dare to detain you." You don't need us to come over and send a letter, Jieli has to send you back to Chang'an honestly. ”
Li Chengqian glanced at him, and said with some unconvincing in his heart: "Is it as powerful as you say?" ”
Tang Jian smiled and said, "Don't say it, it's really possible." The most powerful thing about Champion Hou is that he never acts according to common sense. Jieli dares to hold on to you, if the court comes to the rescue, it will send us an envoy to ransom people, or send troops to war. But if it is Hou Ye, I guess he will retaliate with a tooth for a tooth, go deep into the grassland in person, and also capture a son of Jieli and exchange hostages. This will get you out faster. ”
Liu Jinyuan interjected: "No, the lower officials think that since the Hou Ye has made a move, he will never arrest only one son of Jieli, maybe he will arrest all the children of his family." ”
Everyone laughed, not to mention, that's right, it's not Xiao Rui's style to catch only one.
After laughing, Qin Huaidao said with a sad face: "It's a pity that Brother Xiao is gone." ”
Li Chengqian blurted out, "He's not dead." It's just that my father didn't let it be passed on and recuperated at home. ”
What???
The three people present were all stunned, Tang Jian reacted the fastest, and hurriedly stepped forward to knock Li Chengqian down, "Don't say ......"
There was a burst of applause outside the prison, and Zhao Deyan walked in slowly, applauding as he walked, "Hahahaha, it's not in vain for my hard work, it's right to lock you up together." Otherwise, I wouldn't have heard such a big secret. ”
