Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 498

Since Li Shan confessed his guilt, Li Yuan's mood fluctuated. Following the former's narration, he was either thoughtful, ecstatic, or dejected.

After hearing the three words "agreed", Li Yuan sat back on the couch with a puff, his eyes were lost, and he murmured: "I actually agreed... I actually agreed!"

Since the rise of troops in Jinyang, Li Yuan secretly formed an alliance with the Turks, and even regarded himself as a subject. When Li and Tang ruled the world, the Turks invaded several times. Hundreds of thousands of Turks are always a dark cloud over Li Yuan's head, and there may be lightning, thunder, and heavy rain at any time.

Now that the Sichuan-Shu rebellion has been put down, the Jianghuai war has been decided, and the world has finally been initially unified, Li Yuan gradually began to shift his target to the Turks... As the founding monarch, how could he keep swallowing his anger?
But in the past few years, Turkic and Li Tang have been at war every year, and the two sides have basically had no contact, so Li Yuan is not very clear about the internal situation of Turkic... After knowing that Li Shan inquired, and attracted Tuli Khan and Jieli Khan After the war started, he was ecstatic.

This is available.

If he can form an alliance with Tuli Khan, then for Li Tang, the target of using troops, the location of the troops, too many aspects can be adjusted... to develop in a good direction.

In a word, Pei Shiju split the Turks back then. If Li Shan could attract the Turk Khan to form an alliance with Li Tang, even if the East Turks could not be split, it would inevitably lead to long-term chaos within the Turks... The Tang Dynasty may be able to deliberately use troops, or it may be able to recuperate .

Li Shan's figure dangled in front of him, and Li Yuan felt a little dazzled... It would be fine if he didn't agree, but they all agreed, and you still want to kill Yu Sheshe? !
Although Tuli Khan was provoked by you to go to war with Jieli Khan, but the alliance... Even if it was a failure, how could this not make Li Yuan feel heartbroken?

Princess Pingyang glanced at Li Yuan's expression, then turned her head and asked, "Yu Sheshedu agreed to form an alliance with our dynasty on behalf of Tuli Khan, so why kill him?!"

"Could it be that His Majesty will question you as the county magistrate if the matter of recruiting Yuan Junzhang fails?"

Li Shan smiled wryly, "Third Sister..."

"If you don't report such a major event to the Ming Dynasty, you will make arbitrarily determined decisions, and ruin the military and state affairs, and you are indeed guilty of a serious crime!" Princess Pingyang interrupted: "It has been hidden until now, and its heart can be punished!"

"Third Sister..." Li Shan felt so wronged.

"Shut up!" Princess Pingyang looked at Li Yuan in a daze, "Father, such a serious crime should be..."

After a pause, Li Yuan sneered and said, "Should I go to prison to question my crime?"

"Going to prison and questioning...is it too much?" Princess Pingyang knew that her father had seen through, and smiled awkwardly, "Why don't you dismiss him from office and make him think behind closed doors?"

"His Majesty……"

"Shut up!" Princess Pingyang scolded for the second time, cursing: "Regardless of the military and state affairs, Yu Sheshe and you hit it off and became friends, and you turned around and beheaded him, it is unjust!"

"Pingyang..." Li Yuan, who came back to his senses, felt that his daughter had gone too far, "You are young, wanting to claim merit... After all, beheading an enemy general, how can it be called unrighteous?"

Li Shan finally found a chance to speak, and hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, the minister promised to form an alliance that day, but he didn't promise not to kill him!"

Li Yuan and Princess Pingyang are speechless, you are looking for this reason... If Yu Sheshe under the nine springs knows, I am afraid that he will jump out of the coffin and strangle you to death!

Seeing the scene quiet down, Li Shan thought about it in his heart, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty..."

"To shut up!"

This is the third time...Princess Pingyang scolded in a tone of hating iron but not steel: "Aren't you stupid!"

"Since everyone is killed, the alliance must fail, so what are you talking about?!"

Li Yuan felt a little helpless, and coughed twice, saying this kind of thing in front of me...it doesn't seem very good, does it?
"Acknowledge the guilt!" Princess Pingyang scolded: "Are you afraid that you will be promoted too quickly, or are you arrogant because you think His Majesty really won't ask questions?!"

Li Yuan's mouth is crooked, indeed, he really can't ask the crime... because there is no reason to ask the crime!
A deputy county magistrate ventured to Mayi to appease Yuan Junzhang. After being blocked by the Turks, he ventured to stay in Mayi to find out the Turkic inside story, and then took the risk of attacking the camp on a snowy night. Let's talk about it.

Li Yuan pondered in his heart, but if it fails this time, there may not be a next time. If Tuli Khan has this kind of thought, then he will have a chance...

Just as he was thinking about it, Li Shan finally couldn't bear the cry came from Li Yuan's ear.

"Your Majesty, form an association and lead relatives to send a letter to the county, Tuli Khan is determined to draw up an alliance with our dynasty!"

"Cough cough cough cough cough..." Li Yuan didn't bring it up in one breath, coughing heart-piercingly, and raised his trembling hand after a while, "Why didn't you just say it?!"

"How dare you play tricks on me because you think you have merit?!"

Li Yuan's face was ferocious, "Do you think I'm reluctant to confer rewards, or do you think I'm reluctant to ask crimes?!"

"The third sister scolded me to shut up." Li Shan said aggrievedly, "It's still three times..."

Princess Pingyang's face turned black, after a long time... Is the clown me?
"Ruotuli Khan doesn't want to form an alliance..." Li Shan looked at you with a kind of silly eyes... he didn't dare to look at Li Yuan, so he had to stare at Princess Pingyang, "Then how dare you chase Yugushe all night? "

Princess Pingyang took a deep breath, but her feet felt itchy, and she really wanted to kick them down.

After a pause, Li Shancai looked at Li Yuan, "It was the minister who first discussed this matter with Yu Sheshe and the association rate in Mayi... They also know that the minister is trusted by His Majesty and regarded as his nephew..."

Princess Pingyang interjected expressionlessly: "That's a fox pretending to be a tiger... Forming an alliance with Tuli Khan is a major military and national event. Huairen is second to such great achievements, and father should be the leader."

Uh, this can’t be wrong. If it weren’t for Li Shan’s special status, Yu Sheshe and the association rate wouldn’t have discussed with him such important matters as forming an alliance.

But immediately, Li Shan knocked down a nail, "It's true, this minister endangered the affairs of the military and the country for his own selfish desires. Fortunately, His Majesty loves you so much that Tuli Khan sent envoys here, all thanks to His Majesty's divine power..."

"Okay!" Li Yuan snorted, and said angrily, "I won't miss your reward!"

"I dare not take credit." Li Shan's words came from the bottom of his heart.

Princess Pingyang narrowed her eyes and looked at Li Shan. Although she didn't know what kind of tricks this guy was playing, she sent Du Xiao a letter from the advance party and specially chose to meet His Majesty when he was alone...it must be worthwhile.

"What is the association rate?"

"Association rate entered the fortress under the guise of a caravan, discussed with the officials in Dai County, and then returned to Yunzhou." Li Shan took a half step back cautiously, took out the letter from his arms and presented it far away.

Li Yuan only glanced twice, his expression flickering, and after a while, he raised his head to look at Princess Pingyang, and said with a gentle smile, "There are three reasons why Huairen confessed his guilt just now?"

"The first crime is secretly communicating with the Turks, the second crime is privately controlling the enemy generals, and the third crime is leaking the secrets of the court."

"It's nonsense to secretly communicate with the Turks, and it's even more meritorious to provoke the Turks' civil strife by privately manipulating the enemy generals." Li Yuan said to Li Shan with a smile: "But the secrets of the court, the evidence is conclusive, and the argument is indisputable!"

Leaking the secrets of the court?
Does it mean that the elder brother and the second younger brother compete for the heir apparent?

Isn't this well known?
Princess Pingyang leaned over to take a look, and then cast a sympathetic look at Li Shan... No wonder Tuli Khan wanted to be sworn brothers with his second brother!
