Li You's Tang Dynasty

Chapter 206 Hui Xi's Ambition

"Uncle. This time we come to Datang, can the Emperor of Datang really marry his most beloved princess to his father?"

In the guest house, Ye Misheng and Ye Zhengchun's uncle and nephew were talking.

Ye Zhengchun was the third son of King Huixi at this time and also the favorite son of King Huixi. This time, he asked his third son to come to Chang'an just to let him see the world.

"I don't know!" Ye Misheng looked at his nephew and sighed: "Actually, I don't advocate provoking Datang at this time. We have always had a master-servant relationship with Datang. Now we use horses To threaten Datang, maybe Datang will compromise at this time, but when Datang is free, we are still in danger."

"But Datang's promise to us is not enough, Uncle, Xue Yantuo has always been ready to move towards us, if Xue Yantuo and Datang join forces, then we will definitely be captured!"

"I know, and it's precisely because of this that I didn't persevere and even led the team here!" Ye Misheng frowned slightly.

In the fourth year of Zhenguan, after Tang destroyed the Eastern Turks, most of the Eastern Turks were moved to the south of the Yellow River, and many Jimi prefectures were set up, and the former Eastern Turkic nobles were appointed as the governors of the prefectures.

In this way, Shuosai was empty, and Xue Yantuo took the opportunity to quickly expand his power, occupying most of the original Eastern Turkic territory, and moved the Yazhang from Yudujun Mountain to the south of the Duluo River in the north of Duweijie Mountain, with 20 elite soldiers, entering the heyday.

Moreover, it has close ties with the Pugu and Xi people who were active in the north.Xue Yantuo originally wanted to establish a marriage relationship with the Tang Dynasty.

In the 15th year of Zhenguan, after Xue Yantuo failed to challenge the authority of the Tang Central Committee, he sent envoys to pay tribute and asked for a marriage.

Regarding how to stabilize the northern border, Emperor Taizong of Tang had two plans and asked for opinions from his ministers. He said: "Historically, the northern minorities were mostly border troubles in the Central Plains. With the recent rise of Xue Yantuo, we should prepare early.

I designed two sets of plans: one, select one hundred thousand troops, destroy their country, and capture their leaders, which can ensure the stability of our border for a hundred years; second, promise to make peace and take prison, which is enough to ensure the stability of the border for 30 years.I don't know which set of plans is better? "

Prime Minister Fang Xuanling supported the second plan, and Taizong was also inclined to the second plan, so he agreed to the marriage and decided to marry the daughter of the clan as the new princess to marry a barbarian.

But in the end, because of trivial issues in etiquette, Taizong broke his promise and severed his marriage with Xue Yantuo.

In the 16th and 17th years of Zhenguan, Xue Yantuo and the Eastern Turks invaded and plundered each other. Taizong obviously favored the Eastern Turks and sent envoys to condemn Yinan, but Yinan dared not speak out.

This has also led to the current Xue Yantuo gradually becoming somewhat resistant to Datang. The original peaceful scene is likely to be broken by Xue Yantuo. Hui He is weaker than Xue Yantuo, so Hui He has to make up his mind about marriage, Hui He People hope that they can marry the most honorable princess in the Tang Dynasty. With this princess, Xue Yantuo will be deterred.

Even if Xue Yantuo gave it a go, Hui Ke believed that Datang would rescue them for the sake of the princess, which was also the helpless choice of Hui Kun.

"Your Majesty, someone wants to see you."

A Huihe warrior came in to report.

"Finally here!" Ye Misheng immediately got up and said anxiously, "Please come in!"

"Who is uncle?" Ye Zhengchun asked suspiciously.

"You don't need to know, he is a friend of mine, just wait a while and don't talk, just stay honest!"

Ye Zhengchun still listened to his uncle's orders.

After a while, Ye Zhengchun saw a man in black with a cloak walk into the room. The man was dressed in black and covered his head with a cloak, which made Ye Zhengchun a little curious about the person who came. Heart.

"You are here, please sit down!"

Ye Misheng was very respectful to the visitor.

After the man in black sat down, Ye Misheng asked anxiously: "We all know the news you gave us, but we are still not sure whether His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will send his beloved daughter Princess Jinyang will marry us back to you!"

At this time, the man in black finally spoke: "Datang will soon use troops against Korea, and if it uses troops, it will definitely need war horses. Datang and Xue Yantuo no longer have a horse market.

So Datang must use your Huixi war horses. As long as Huixi insists on not letting go this time, even His Majesty the Emperor of Datang can't do anything to you.

As long as you have the marriage of Princess Jinyang, you will be protected by the Tang Dynasty for at least 50 years.

By the way, if His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty uses Princess Jinyang for illness and wants to change the princess for you, please don't agree. Remember that you only ask to marry Princess Jinyang of the Tang Dynasty, other princesses are useless. "

"I know this. Princess Jinyang is His Majesty Tang's most beloved princess. We will not marry other princesses." Ye Misheng nodded firmly.

"By the way. This time, I'm going to tell you one more time. In addition to marrying Princess Jinyang, you'd better marry another person!"

"Do you want to marry someone else, or the princess?" Ye Misheng was a little surprised.

I saw the man in black shaking his head: "It's not a princess, it's the daughter of an ordinary minister, named Quan Zhixi, she is the daughter of Quan Wanji, the official minister, and this Quan Wanji is the teacher of King Qi of the Tang Dynasty.

Now King Qi of the Tang Dynasty is a man with a lot of money, you can contact him through Quan Zhixi, and it will help you a lot! "

After finishing speaking, the man in black looked to Ye Zhengchun and asked, "He is the third son of King Huixi, right? Let him go to court. If you succeed, your position will be strengthened!"

"Uncle!" Ye Zhengchun looked at Ye Misheng who was on the side.

But Ye Misheng nodded and replied: "I see. I will do as you asked, and I sincerely thank you. Your selfless help to us will be remembered forever by Huixi people. heart."

After finishing speaking, the man in black stood up, and then walked out of the room of the man in black silently.

Ye Misheng didn't go to see him off, but just watched the man in black leave.

As soon as the man in black left, Ye Zhengchun immediately asked, "Uncle, is this person our own high-ranking member of the Tang Dynasty hiding in the Tang Dynasty?"

"One of our own?" Ye Misheng shook his head slightly at this title: "He is not considered one of our own, at most we can only use each other, but this person is indeed in a high position in the Tang Dynasty, as he said. A few things did work in our favour, too.

Just like this time when the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty wanted to use troops against Goryeo, this time is the time for us to return to turn the horse trade into the biggest profit point. "

"Then he asked me to marry the servant's daughter. Uncle, do I ask or not?"

"Be sure to ask. There is no need for him to lie to us. He said that asking to marry that woman is good for you. Anyway, we have already asked for another princess, so we don't mind adding one more."

"Alright, I'll listen to Uncle!" Ye Zhengchun nodded slightly.

"Yeah!" Ye Misheng looked at the night outside the window at this moment and said, "I hope everything goes well for us!"
