Tang Chu was stunned, he couldn't figure out this question, he pondered for a while, shook his head, and said, "Don't hide it from Lord Prison Army, this is also what I can't figure out." But I think that His Royal Highness the Tenth Prince did this for the sake of secrecy! At the same time, it also allowed the Supervisor to give orders without constraints. After all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince used to be the commander of Northern Xinjiang, and the Son of Heaven did not issue a holy decree to take away his position, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must exercise his powers, I am afraid that His Royal Highness the Second Prince will also be in a dilemma. ”

This is also the usual method used by the Son of Heaven, although he issued a holy decree to explicitly order Li Leng to be the commander of Northern Xinjiang, but he did not state in the holy decree that the crown prince Li Chengqian is not the commander of Northern Xinjiang. In a sense, there are two commanders in northern Xinjiang. It's just that now Li Leng is strong and has led the army of Northern Xinjiang to fight several big victories, which has fundamentally reversed the unfavorable situation in Northern Xinjiang and made Li Leng's personal reputation rise in Northern Xinjiang, which temporarily suppressed this prominent problem.

However, this problem has only been suppressed, and the contradictions have not been completely resolved and changed. Once something happens to Li Leng, or he leaves the northern frontier, then this hidden problem and contradiction will erupt like a volcano. I'm afraid that when the time comes, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely take the military power in Li Leng's hands.

Let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seize the military power, and Li Leng's situation will be even more dangerous. The crisis in northern Xinjiang has been resolved, and in a sense, Li Leng has no value to use, but has become a threat to the Son of Heaven. Under such circumstances, the Son of Heaven would allow the crown prince to get rid of Li Leng once and for all.

"I think, probably that's the reason!" Li Muran smiled slightly and didn't continue to ask. Perhaps, Tang Shu didn't know what Li Leng's real plan was. This is good, it shows that Li Leng does not distrust him.

Half an hour later, the scouts on the other side of the river came with news that everything was safe, and Li Leng had entered the Yuanrong tribe's camp, ready to talk to the Yuanrong tribe's Dadan Yu.

Hope everything goes well!

......

After crossing the river, Li Leng dismounted and walked, and Li Chengqian and Qin Yanran also dismounted and followed him. The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and I began to see the road ahead clearly. Fortunately, with the scouts of the Yuanrong clan leading the way, they will not lose their way. Li Chengqian frowned, and asked Li Leng, "Why don't you ride a horse? ”

"Why is it so fast?" Li Leng glanced back at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and said, "We can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, and the more this time, the more we can't be in a hurry." ”

Li Chengqian didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Li Leng's gourd, but now that the northern Xinjiang was under his control, even he, the crown prince, had to listen to Li Leng's orders, and said with a little unhappiness: "Okay, whatever you say is what it is." ”

I don't know how that person is preparing, and I don't know if the Yuanrong clan has set a trap. This time, Li Leng must not be allowed to leave the base camp of the Yuanrong clan alive.

Half an hour later, Li Leng and his party walked to the camp of the Yuanrong clan. In the wind and snow, they did not spread their movements, but took one step at a time like ordinary people, which took several times the time on weekdays.

Li Leng was greeted by a very beautiful woman, she saluted Li Leng and said, "My name is Jin Yanqiu, on behalf of Da Shan Yu, to welcome the distinguished guests of Datang." Please come with me into the camp and rest for a while!"

Jin Yanqiu led Li Leng to a large camp tent, ordered someone to prepare hot milk tea, and also prepared a charcoal fire.

Li sat there calmly, leaning comfortably on the chair, looking at the busy Jin Yanqiu with an indifferent expression.

After a while, Jin Yanqiu smiled and asked, "Your Royal Highness the Tenth Prince, do you have any other orders?"

"No more. Li Leng shook his head and said calmly.

"Then I'll report to Da Shan Yu and prepare what to talk about next. After Jin Yanqiu finished speaking, she slowly withdrew from the camp.

Li Chengqian frowned and asked, "What do you mean by the Yuanrong clan? This big Dan Yu is too arrogant and arrogant, and there is no one in his eyes! He casually sent a maid to receive us, is it easy to bully us when we are in the Tang Dynasty?" ”

"That's not a maid. Li Leng smiled meaningfully and asked, "Yanran, do you see what's coming?"

Qin Yanran said: "Everyone saw her, including the rebellious Yuanrong warriors, they all respected this woman very much, and even gave her a big salute. ”

"What do you mean? What was wrong with that woman just now?" asked Li Chengqian, puzzled.

Qin Yanran said: "The status of women in the Yuanrong clan is very low, and a woman who can be respected and courteous by the warriors of the Yuanrong clan shows that this woman's identity in the Yuanrong clan is not simple. I speculate that she is the wife of Da Shan Yu, the queen of the Yuanrong clan. ”

"What......? How is it possible?" Li Chengqian was dumbfounded, he really didn't notice these details, and he was a little dumbfounded for a while.

"What you think is impossible is often the truth of the matter. Li smiled coldly and sat there quietly waiting for the Yuanrong clan Da Danyu.

Li Chengqian had a ghost in his heart, and he also sat there without speaking. He had been wondering who that person was the other night before, and why he had given him the power of the talisman? After a few days of cultivation, he only felt that the strength of his body erupted like a volcano, and his strength had increased much compared to before.

Half an hour later, Li Leng, who closed his eyes and recuperated, suddenly opened his eyes, a subtle sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said, "It's finally here." ”

The curtain of the tent was lifted, and first a few Yuanrong guards entered, and then, a burly man walked in proudly, followed by a personal guard and Jin Yanqiu.

"You are Li Leng, the tenth prince of the Tang Dynasty?" the burly man asked in an unceremonious tone.

"Yes. Li sneered and looked at the burly man, his eyes swept over the personal guard behind him without a trace, and the smile on his face became even brighter.

The burly man sat opposite Li Leng, looked at Li Leng with a slightly provocative look in his eyes, and said: "The Tang Dynasty and Yuan Rong have been at war for hundreds of years, and both sides have suffered countless casualties, so it's time to strike the army and make peace." We, the Yuanrong clan, promised you the Tang Dynasty that once the army was dismissed and made peace, our Yuanrong clan was willing to return the territory of the northern frontier of the Tang Dynasty. ”

"And what about your conditions?" asked Li Leng.

The burly man said: "The Han has captured the three cities of our Yuanrong clan, and we want your Tang Dynasty to send troops to attack the Han and help us recapture those three cities." ”

"The Tang Dynasty and the Han Dynasty have just formed an alliance, and the Han Dynasty has sent troops to help us recover most of the land in northern Xinjiang. Li sneered and said, "But your Yuanrong clan wants us to send troops to attack the Han Dynasty, doesn't that make us ungrateful?
