Li Shimin

In the hall, all the honorable courtiers were full of anticipation. At the celebration banquet, the existence of this Turkic Khan was the best celebration.

As for the envoys of the vassal state who were lucky enough to come in, a group of people hid in the corner secretly, watching the grand occasion in the hall, trembling.

Datang is so powerful?

However, soon they were staring straight at the white wine in front of them again, their eyes were full of green light, and they were trembling all over!

This kind of fine wine is simply fairy wine, no wonder those nobles in the Tang Dynasty are so eager for it, as long as they bring it back to the country, it must be a great achievement.

Soon, Jieli came to the hall under the leadership of Li Wei!

"I have seen the Emperor of Tang!"

Seeing Li Shimin, Jieli bowed his hands directly.

Above, Li Xuan's expression flashed. It's only been a few days of work, and this Turkic Khan has become quite decadent.

"Ashina, today is the state banquet of my Tang Dynasty. You have become the Great General of the Right Guard of the Tang Dynasty, so you should celebrate with all your colleagues!"

Li Shimin said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Xieli saluted obediently, without any trace of the unruly arrogance he had when he first entered Chang'an.

Seeing this, the curiosity in Li Xuan's heart faded away.

Sure enough, just as Li Xuan thought, Li Shimin said that since the celebration, someone should come to dance and play music.

Hearing this, Xieli danced directly in the hall.

The dancing posture is better than that of Cheng Fairy and the others, but the dance is Hu Wu, which Li Xuan can't understand at all.

However, Li Chengqian and all the ministers in the palace watched it with gusto.

Seeing this, Li Xuan looked helpless.

He bowed his head and ate.

From time to time, he took a sip of white wine, which caused Li Shimin and Li Yuan above to be surprised.

After Jieli danced to the song, he stood quietly at His Royal Highness.

"Prince Jin, what do you think?"

It was Li Xuan who proposed to let Xieli dance, so Li Shimin definitely asked Li Xuan to comment.

"what?"

Li Xuan, who was indulging in the palace food, heard Li Shimin asking himself, and replied without thinking.

"Then play music, then dance!"

Hearing this, a trace of doubt flashed in Li Shimin's eyes, did he not like watching it?

However, he still signaled the musicians on the side to play music.

And Jieli could only dance helplessly.

Below, a group of honorable officials are still watching with relish.

As for Li Xuan, who had regained his senses, he could only sigh helplessly, and he had to suffer bitterly for the evil he had done.

This banquet lasted from Si time in the morning to Shen time in the afternoon.

After six or seven full hours, when he came out, Li Xuan already felt that his waist was almost not his own.

"Your Majesty?"

Seeing Li Xuan who was walking while supporting his waist, Xue Rengui, Ma Xi and the others hurried forward with concern on their faces.

"Hurry up, help me get into the car! ... Oops, the banquet has been held for so long, and I can only sit, can't lie down, can't rely on it, my waist..."

"Hey, my lord, please slow down!"

Ma Xi, Xue Rengui and the others chuckled, quickly and carefully supported Li Xuan, and got into the carriage.

As soon as he got into the carriage, Li Xuan directly pulled out the specially made cushion and spread it flat in the carriage. Then he found a comfortable position, arched his head, and lay down slowly.

"Huh... It's still comfortable to lie down, Xue Rengui, don't worry, go back to Lijiazhuang slowly!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Outside the car, Xue Rengui responded quickly.

Immediately, a group of people drove the carriage lightly and walked back.

Inside the carriage, with the swaying of the carriage, Li Xuan felt a little drowsy.

After an unknown amount of time, I suddenly heard Xue Rengui and Ma Xi shouting angrily outside the car.

"Be careful, king!"

"alert!"

Then, Li Xuan heard a gust of wind blowing past his ears.

Then, there was a ding ding dong sound.

Afterwards, I felt small things falling from my body.

Li Xuan opened his eyes and saw that it turned out to be arrows with shining arrows.

There are at least a dozen of them!

Li Xuan sobered up instantly!

Someone wants to assassinate himself?

This was Li Xuan's first thought!

Immediately, a thin layer of sweat subconsciously appeared on his forehead.

Fortunately, I was lying in the carriage this time instead of sitting. Otherwise, according to this kind of arrow rain, even if I didn't die, I would still have a few arrows stuck in my body!

At this time, the curtain of the car was pulled open, and Ma Xi looked in.

He looked at Li Xuan worriedly.

"Is Your Majesty injured?"

"fine!"

Li Xuan said while playing with the arrow in his hand.

"Your Majesty is fine!"

Hearing Li Xuan's angry voice, Zheng Fu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Damn it, let the assassins touch the roofs on both sides, almost hurting the king!"

"It's okay!"

Li Xuan nodded lightly, and asked, "Who is the assassin, have you caught him?"

"Back to the king, the assassin looks like a Turkic man. He hid on the houses on both sides and shot arrows at the king's carriage. He shot two rounds and then withdrew. The last general was incompetent. He only caught four assassins and ran away. Got a few!

However, please rest assured, Xue Rengui has brought a group of brothers to capture him, and he will be captured soon! "

Zheng Fu said quickly.

"Ok!"

Li Xuan nodded slightly again, and got out of the carriage with a gloomy expression.

At this time, the surrounding area of the carriage was already empty, and all the people were very experienced to stay far away.

There was also a team of personal guards surrounding the carriage, staring at the surroundings with a full face of vigilance.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, Li Xuan looked at several personal guards.

Chapter 457 Turkic Thieves?

"Have you been hit by an arrow?"

There were bloodstains on three or four bodyguards or on their arms.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern. I was accidentally struck by the arrows of those thieves. However, please rest assured, Your Majesty, the villain and others are all wearing armor, so there is no serious problem!"

Li Xuan looked around again, then nodded slowly, feeling a little relieved.

These personal guards are all wearing iron armor, unless they are shot directly in the face, it is difficult to shoot them.

Moreover, those assassins were obviously aiming at his carriage and shooting arrows. These guards should have been too close to the windows of the carriage to be scratched by the arrows.

Turn around and walk to the other side.

Beside the carriage, a team of personal guards escorted four Turkic barbarians, kneeling on the ground.

At the same time, in order to prevent these Turkic barbarians from rebelling, a group of people have broken the hands of these Turkic barbarians.

"What a Turkic thief..."

As soon as Li Xuan wanted to speak, he felt a chill on his back, turned sideways quickly, and at the same time stretched out his hand to grab it, feeling a sharp burning pain in his hand.

Immediately, a figure flashed by on the second floor of a shop in the distance.

A cold light flashed in Li Xuan's eyes, and he subconsciously threw the arrow in his hand.

Inside the house, there was a muffled humming sound.

On the side, Zheng Fu also reacted.

With a roar, "Fang Tai, I will lead a team of people to chase after him! If you live, you want to see people, if you want to die, you want to see corpses!"

"Yes!"

After the words fell, a young general rushed over with more than a dozen personal guards.

"Your Majesty, forgive me, I didn't expect these thieves to be cunning, and I asked your Majesty to get in the car and wait. The general will definitely find out those thieves one by one today!"

Zheng Fu said with a cold face.

When the arrow shot at Li Xuan just now, Zheng Fu was sweating all over his body.

"It's okay, two assassinations are enough, there will be no more assassins!"

Li Xuan sneered, and said again: "Besides, when these Turkic barbarians saw the assassin, they were also full of astonishment, obviously they didn't know about it!"

"However, this king is very curious. How did the Turkic barbarians know that this king will come to Chang'an, and how did so many Turkic barbarians with bows and arrows come into Chang'an?"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, this matter must be called Jinwuwei, Wuhouwei, and Chang'an and Wannian county magistrates, give Your Majesty an explanation!"

Zheng Fu gritted his teeth.

"See Your Majesty!"

At this time, Xue Rengui brought a team of personal guards, dragging more than a dozen Turkic barbarians, and came over.

The dark armor on his body was spattered with blood.

The dark horse spear was also blood red.

This time, Xue Rengui, who was honest and honest, was also moved to kill him!

"A total of twelve thieves have been captured!"

"Break your hands and push them back!"

Li Xuan said coldly.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Xue Rengui clapped his hands in response, and then looked at the guards.

Without hesitation, all the guards raised the handle of the knife in their hands and smashed it down.
