Chapter 99 "Isn't Xue Wanche dead?"
Facing the emperor's inquiry, everyone looked at each other, and Monk Zhang Er was also confused.
Since that night, Xue Wanche seemed to have disappeared from the world. The emperor had pardoned his crimes, and several people who were with him also surrendered. Only Xue Wanche was missing.
"Your Majesty, my brother is missing and has not been found for many days, so I thought he was dead.
I had no choice but to bury a few of his favorite things during his lifetime to use as that my brother has returned, he should withdraw and ask Your Majesty to forgive his crime. "
Xue Wanche's brother Xue Wanjun hurriedly stepped forward to plead guilty.
"I see!"
Li Shimin pondered for a moment and said: "Xue Aiqing, please get up! I pardoned him back then, and now that he is back, I will naturally not blame him.
Furthermore, this time he broke into the enemy camp alone with Captain Zhaowu and made a great contribution. I am happy before it is too late, so how can I blame him? "
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for my brother!"
After Xue Wanjun retreated, everyone also noticed that the name of the Zhaowu Colonel was somewhat familiar. Fang Xuanling was moved in his heart and said: "Your Majesty, this Zhaowu Colonel Ji Song has done: People have searched for him thousands of times, and looking back at dusk, that Which young talented man is in a dimly lit place?"
Fang Xuanling revealed his identity in one sentence, and everyone then remembered the figure who looked like an immortal on the Lantern Festival, and at the same time they looked at Li Gang, who had been closing his eyes to rest.
Li Gang didn't care about the looks from everyone. Since that night, Li Gang basically didn't speak much in the court.
In any case, Prince Li Jiancheng was his disciple. Li Shimin's accusation of blaming King Yuanji of Qi could be hidden from the ignorant people, but he could not hide it from the princes of the Manchu Dynasty.
Naturally, I have resentment in my heart. If I don't scold Li Shimin for his ambition, I'm already giving him face. I want him to make plans, bah!dream! He naturally knew that Ji Song was going to the frontline battlefield, and he didn't say anything about his beloved disciple's choice.
In the face of the alien invasion, he did very well, and he had no reason to stop it.
He also noticed Li Shimin's love for Ji Song and was proud of his student.
As for him being close to the emperor, that was his business, and he couldn't blame him for this reason.
Li Gang's indifference made some people secretly hate him. Why didn't he have such luck? Based on Ji Song's contribution and the impact of this victory, it is not difficult to imagine that the emperor and the court will reward him heavily. Otherwise, it will not be enough to inspire military morale and share the same hatred with the enemy!
But what surprised everyone was that Li Shimin was not in a hurry to reward Ji Song, but instead issued an edict: "Pass the edict!"
"promise!"
"Zhaowu Colonel Ji Song has made meritorious service in fending off the enemy, and his merits cannot be repaid without a heavy reward. However, this is an extraordinary period. After this crisis is over, we will reward him together. Now we order him to rush to Chang'an to listen to him!"
"I will summon you now!"
Zhongshu Provincial Officials stepped forward to accept the promise! Just when Li Shimin was still about to say something, someone suddenly reported that a Turkic envoy was coming.
"Summon!"
Li Shimin did not hesitate. It was a great victory at this time. He also wanted to hear what the Turkic envoy wanted to say? "Your Majesty, I thought it would be better to bring Ashina Zhaokui!"
Changsun Wuji narrowed his eyes and smiled sinisterly.
"Suck!"
Everyone knew what Changsun Wuji was thinking after just a moment's thought. He wanted to trample the face of the Turkic envoy under his feet!
Although doing this is not in line with the way of a saint, I still think about how it feels so good! "Prelude!"
Li Shimin agreed without thinking. I couldn't sleep well during this period. With such an opportunity to relieve my anger, there was no reason to miss it. "How long will it take for Ashina Zhaokui to be delivered?"
He asked the messenger who was still in the hall.
"Ah! To report back to Your Majesty, Ashina Zhaokui set out with me, but when we were at the city gate, I went ahead. They should have arrived by now."
The messenger didn't expect to ask him this question at this time, and was a little confused for a moment, but after all, he was an elite in the army, so he immediately reacted and replied quickly.
"Well, Keming, I'll trouble you for a while!" Li Shimin said to Du Ruhui.
"Thank you!"
Of course Lao Du knew what his Majesty meant, which was to humiliate the Turkic envoys, otherwise it would be difficult to eliminate everyone's hatred! Soon, first the Minister of Rites came to the main hall with the Turkic of them were wearing foreign costumes and had braids on their heads that were only worn by women.
The big man at the head held his head high, looking arrogant.
Arriving in front of His Majesty Dan, he gave a slight salute and said: "Envoy Jieli Khan of the Great Prairie, Zhi Los Si Li, pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor of the Central Plains!"
"Messenger, please be free!"
In fact, he had already stood up before he finished speaking. When he heard Li Shimin's words, a hint of sarcasm appeared on his lips, as if to say: Are you worthy of letting me salute?
It's no wonder that Zhi lost Si Li was so arrogant. Jie Li led [-] iron cavalry to Chang'an, which was an achievement that no other khan had ever achieved before.
As long as the Khan gives the order, he believes that this great city, where only gods can live, will immediately belong to their great Jieli Khan.
Li Shimin didn't care about Zhi Shili's attitude. He just watched with interest and then said, "Why did Khan Jieli send you here?"
Seeing that Li Shimin did not punish himself, he became even more enough, the Emperor of the Central Plains was scared.
"The Khan has sent me here to negotiate peace. As long as your country provides enough money and goods, the Khan promises to withdraw his troops. What do you think of His Majesty the Emperor?" Zhi lost his thoughts and said arrogantly.
"I"
"No matter what, you go back and ask Jie Li if he doesn't want his third son anymore? If not, we are going to strip him naked and tie him to the city wall for the people of the Tang Dynasty to watch. I wonder what the Turkic envoys think. ?”
Just when Li Shimin was angry and ready to scold him for being unreasonable, Du Ruhui arrived in time and sarcastically said.
Behind him were two soldiers escorting an unkempt man, who also came in. Judging from his clothes, he should be Ashina Zhaokui.
"I have lost my ability to think. I have lost my ability to think. Please help me, please save me!"
When Ashina Zhaokui saw Zhi lost his thoughts in the center of the hall, he pounced on him like a crazy wild dog, shouting repeatedly, but was quickly controlled by the soldiers behind him.
"Ashina Zhaokui? Why is it you?" Zhi lost his mind and was shocked.
Wasn't he sent by the Khan to supervise the army beside Ashina Zhongyi?Then why come here, it looks very miserable.
"We were defeated. We were defeated. It was so tragic. All five thousand Turkic men died!"
Ashina Zhaokui suddenly burst into tears when he thought of the nightmare last night.
"Quick, tell me what happened?"
Zhi lost his mind and rushed to Ashina Zhaokui, but was stopped by the soldiers and could only question loudly.
He lost his mind and finally became a general of the Tang Dynasty!
