Acting in the Sui and Tang Dynasties

As the evening approached, hearing the sound of voices and footsteps outside the tent, Zheng Jie quickly burned the letter in her hand with a candle and covered it with a glass lampshade.

She was originally the daughter of a small official in the capital. Because she was smart, she traveled all over the country with her father all the year round and knew some Turkic language. She was selected as the maid of honor for the princess.Later, he set up a marriage proposal for the prince Tilliv and became the prince and concubine.

"The prince is back." Zheng Jie greeted her with a smile, blocking the candlestick behind her and taking the cloak from the man who came over with concern.

Tuli Fushe spoke calmly, not knowing whether he was happy or sad, "Du Jishi died, if a shepherd hadn't passed by and saw him, I'm afraid even the corpse would be taken by wolves."

"How could this be? Is our princess still safe?" Zheng Jie asked in surprise.

"I think it was done by people from your court."

"The princess was snatched by him." Zheng Jie went to hang the cloak on the hanger at the side, "Anyway, this is the prince's opportunity."

"Du Jishi is dead, and the others are incompetent. Naturally, no one will fight with me. What's more, this matter is likely to be done by the people of the Central Plains. If I want to avenge my brother, it is also appropriate to raise troops to ask the Emperor of the Central Plains for an explanation. .”

Zheng Jie turned her back to him, patted her cloak, and said with a feeling of grievance: "It's not that the prince doesn't know, I'm also from the Central Plains. Why bother to try every word?"

"You are my woman." Li Fushe looked at her back and replied simply.

"Zhongtu is the hometown where I was born and raised, and I have deep feelings. But there is also an old saying in the Central Plains, that is, marry a beggar, marry an old man, follow an old man, marry a prince, and Turkic is my belonging. I think and think for the prince. Zheng Jie confessed and asked, "Does the prince want to listen to me?"

But Li Fushe approached her with a smile, "Everything you say is polite, just say it straight."

"When the eldest prince was still around, the brothers had a lot of discord. If the prince hadn't been vigilant, he would have been harmed by him. Now even if the prince ascends the throne, the elder prince's subordinates will definitely not accept it. In addition, the other younger brothers may not want to share the pie. , It can be said that there are countless internal troubles. At this time, it would not be wise to break face with the imperial court again." Zheng Jie turned her head, and Rachelev set up to sit down by the case, and said half of the sentence first.

"Yes!" Rathulif sighed, "Tomorrow we will discuss the candidates for the new Khan. I don't know what will happen."

"It's different to get the support of the court at this time. Originally, Xian Khan was attached to the court when he was there, and he lived in peace for more than ten years."

"You mean to keep the death of Tuo Jishi silent, and still have good relations with the court?" Qi Lifu asked in puzzlement.

"The Central Plains is vast and abundant, and there are many talented people. Not to mention that we don't know who killed the eldest prince. Even if it is confirmed that it was done by someone in the court, the Turks tried their best to avenge the eldest prince. It is nothing more than hitting a stone with an egg. What's more, the West is now I really want to make a comeback, maybe I would like to sit and watch the snipe and the clam fight, so that the fisherman will benefit.” Zheng Jie stood behind the prince, tenderly squeezed his shoulders to relieve his fatigue, and once again mentioned the identity of the Central Plains to resolve the suspicion , "I said this not because I am from the Central Plains, but for the sake of the prince."

There is no way around this.If it is true that the Turkic successor Khan died in the hands of the younger brother of Princess Heqin and the war started, then Princess Heqin would be destined to become cannon fodder. Come in and try.

Once Duo Jishi died, the Turks would inevitably be in chaos, at least the group of people who followed him would be uneasy.Just like all the brothers of the Central Plains dynasty vying for the throne, even if only Duo Jishi and Qi Lifu set up the position of Turkic Khan at the beginning, the others may not want to take advantage of the chaos at all.The death of Dujishi was not entirely a good thing for Chelifushe.

Simply put, let someone tell him clearly that Du Jishi wanted to frame you and kill you. The Sui court knew everything and stood by your side and saved your life. Otherwise, the corpse that was almost lying here was you.As long as you take the blame for killing Jishi, the emperor will immediately issue an edict to formally confer you as King Khan, and even stand up for you to deter other brothers who are not convinced. If you want to attack the Western Turks, you also have the backing of the Central Plains .

Smash everything into pieces, spread it out and make it clear, you can choose to stand on the moral high ground "to avenge your brother" and fight against the imperial court, but the Central Plains is so big, and there are so many talented people, you are only half of it. Turks, after infighting with other brothers and losing both sides to take the position, weigh their own weight and whether they can touch the toes of the Central Plains.

Of course, this method is like walking a high-altitude tightrope. If you are not careful, you will fall to pieces, so most of it depends on the eloquence of the implementer, the ability to fool people, the relationship with the parties, and even the courage.Fortunately, Yang Shu was married far away at that time, and among the female officials brought with her was Zheng Jie, a figure like Feng Shi of the Han Dynasty who married Qi Lifushe.Although there is indeed a saying in the Central Plains that "the husband is the sky", there is also a lesson of "never forget the country in times of trouble".If it is said that for a knowledgeable Central Plains woman, her husband is innocent, then the interests of the country are always greater than the sky.

At noon the next day, Qionghua waited on the edge of the Great Wall for the spies to deliver the news.She has been unable to figure out that she wants to work hard to do everything well, but often it backfires.The long wait made her even more irritable and doubtful, "Are we right? We should have brought her back at that time, and at worst, we will fight the Turks. Maybe, maybe after the victory, the emperor won't be too angry .”

"Things in the world are never perfect. What's more, staying in Turkic is Princess Yicheng's own choice."

"Yuwen Chengdu." Qionghua looked to the side.

"Ok?"

In fact, it was nothing, just calling him out of nowhere.But now it seems that something needs to be found out.She rolled her eyes, and finally fixed her gaze on Yang Yi, who was scratching the bricks in the corner of the city wall not far away, pointing at him and saying, "I don't know if he will have something to do with such a big thing. Qiqing internal injury, panic disorder, do you want to see a doctor?"

I don't know if there is such a thing as a psychiatrist here.

"Turkic Tiger Talisman!" Yu Wencheng's eyes lit up, and he walked to Yang Yi's side in two or three steps, carefully inspecting the neck ornament he took out to play with, and it turned out to be half a Tiger Talisman.Qionghua also walked over and asked, "Where did you come from?"

"At that time, my sister disappeared, so I went to find her. I hung it around my neck, saying that maybe I could protect myself in case of danger." Yang Yi, who was questioned repeatedly, didn't know what happened, and replied innocently.

Qionghua recalls the Turkic real-time character who specially made up for it. Duobi is the youngest son of Qimin Khan, whose biological mother died young, and his personality is unknown.

Hu Fu's words should be about military power, because I don't know if imperial edicts and jade seals are as popular in Turkic as in the Central Plains, so I asked: "Does this mean that Rangan intends to let Dubi succeed him?"

"Actually, that's right. But the Tiger Talisman has always been divided into two parts, and Turkic doesn't have any generals outside, so where is the other half?" Yu Wencheng also had doubts.

Qionghua guessed a story.Duo Bi is young, but as long as he is Khan, he must marry his predecessor Ke Dun Yang Shu.And because of his young age, Ke Dun's responsibility may be "Queen" on the surface, but actually "Queen Dowager".Qimin Khan arranged a way for Yang Shu.

Let's think about it, what is best for Yang Shu.Of course, from the letters she sent back over the years, Khan Qimin's resurrection is the best, but the impossible thing can only be crossed out.The dead Tujishi was not a good person, and the living Tuli Fushe might not be, and it was no fun to have a harem fight with a group of Turkic women.But Hebi is small now, maybe he can take care of him, and listen to politics behind the curtain (not), he will grow up one day, right?What if I become disobedient when I grow up?

Wait, the task is to let Yang Shu gain Turkic power, isn't that the latter route?

"Qimin Khan has already made plans for the future. When the young master is in power, Dun is the regent, so that the stability of the Turks and the Central Plains can be guaranteed. Qionghua began to think of a way to let everyone know about this. Push Aggressiveness to the Khan position naturally.

In the king's tent, Yang Shu sat behind the case as Xian Khan's widow, without saying a word.

Tilifushe pulled out his scimitar and plunged it into the sandpit that was usually used to line up troops. "Father Khan left in a hurry, before leaving a will. I am the new Khan, who dares to refuse?"

"The eldest prince died for no apparent reason, and the second prince is so eager to succeed the Khan instead of looking for the murderer. Is this a self-inflicted crime?" the old ministry following Du Jishi was indignant.In their view, the wilderness of violent corpses in Jishishi was actually designed by Qilifu.

Before Li Fushe could explain what he said, some of his clever subordinates came up to help him "confess" and said: "Khan has no will, and on the grasslands, merits should be judged by ability. Where are there brothers and sisters? right or wrong."

When there was a disagreement, the two groups started arguing and fighting, and the other brothers winked at each other and enjoyed watching the show. Even if they themselves didn't have the chance to win the position, they didn't want others to get it so easily.

"Stop arguing. When Xian Khan was alive, although he didn't leave a few words about the ownership of Khan, he gave me this." Seeing that everyone was arguing, Yang Shu sighed and took the comb from her hair.Thinking about the past, he was even more heartbroken, and lightly broke the comb, and it turned out to be half of the tiger talisman, "Second Prince, take out your half."

At that time, Rangan started to get sick. One day, she suddenly gave her a comb. It was only considered a small item, but she wore it all the time.Later, when something happened, Dojishi bullied her and asked Xianhan if he had given her the soldier talisman.Even so, she never thought of this level.It's also a coincidence that it accidentally dropped on the ground when I got up early today to make up, and only then did I know that half of the tiger talisman was hidden.

Tuliver turned blue and white for a while, and finally said: "Father Khan never gave me this."

"Then, where is the other half?" Yang Shu was stunned, and she also thought that since it was not at Duojishi's place, it must have been set up at Qilifu.

"Heh, after a long time of trouble, Father Khan has actually already decided on a successor." In the process of fighting for the throne, there are often a few people who, either because of their own health or because of their biological mother's status, were rejected early. Squeezed out of the center of power and regarded as marginal figures, at this time, the marginal figures joked and turned on each other, "Who is it?"

"No matter who it is, take out the things first, and everyone discuss together." Li Fu set a glance at everyone.

All were silent.
