bastard seizes tang

Chapter 41
"Your Highness, Ke Dun is already waiting in the tent, please come in." Xiu Niang led Li Ke to Princess Yicheng's big tent, and pointed to the tent door of the big tent and said to Li Ke.

"Thank you." Li Ke arched his hands and wanted to push the door open.

But at this moment, Xiu Niang raised her hand to stop Wang Xuance and Su Dingfang who were about to enter with Li Ke.

"Ke Dun is destined, I only see His Highness." Xiu Niang said to Wang Xuance and Su Dingfang.

When Wang Xuance and Su Dingfang heard the words, they looked at Li Ke together. Li Ke thought for a while, then nodded and said, "It's okay, you just wait outside the tent."

It was still early at this time, and if it was an adult man, it would be inappropriate to enter the Kedun tent alone at this time, but at Li Ke's age, there would be no gossip, and Li Ke didn't need to worry.

Li Ke pushed open the tent door and entered. In the big tent, the one sitting on the stool was the Princess Yicheng whom Li Ke had seen at the banquet last night.

"Li Ke, the third prince of the Tang Dynasty, is visiting Ke Dun." Li Ke stepped forward and bowed down.

Seeing Li Ke salute, Princess Yicheng stood up and helped Li Ke up, saying, "Why should my family be so polite?"

Li Ke got up and thanked: "Thank you Ke Dun."

Last night, Princess Yicheng was also very polite to Li Ke at first, but then she turned her face when she saw that Li Ke didn't buy it, and today Princess Yicheng suddenly changed her temper again, making Li Ke have to be careful.

Watching Princess Yicheng get up, Li Ke took out a roll of sheepskin from the corner cabinet and handed it to him.

"This is a secret letter sent to Khan by the leaders of various Turkic ministries. If you can read Turkic, you might as well read it first." Princess Yicheng said as she handed the things to Li Ke.

Although Li Ke has only come to Turkic for a short time, he has worked hard to read Turkic characters along the way. Li Ke is clever and good at memorizing, so he can also recognize the characters on the sheepskin in his hand.

There are seven or eight parchment scrolls in Li Ke's hands, but the themes written in them are all the same. They all persuade Xieli to kill Li Ke and use Li Ke's head to declare war on the Tang Dynasty.

Li Ke looked at the sheepskin in his hand, and couldn't help but feel a shudder running down his back. If Jieli had really listened to what they said, his head might no longer be on the list.

"How do you feel?" Princess Yicheng asked Li Ke, who looked slightly pale.

Li Ke replied: "I came here to seek peace. I never thought that the hostility of the Turkic ministries towards me would be so deep."

Princess Yicheng reached out to take the parchments from Li Ke's hand, smiled lightly, threw them into the burning charcoal fire, and said to Li Ke: "You don't have to worry, I have already persuaded Khan to suppress these secret letters. You don't have to worry about your life for the time being."

When Li Ke heard the words, he naturally guessed what Princess Yicheng meant, but he still cupped his hands and thanked him: "Li Ke thanked Ke Dun for his kindness in protecting him."

Princess Yicheng raised her hand, and said to Li Ke: "You are the eldest son of Ruyi, and in terms of blood relatives, you are my nephew. The whole family doesn't have to be so polite."

Although Princess Yicheng said so, Li Ke didn't dare to slack off in his heart. He knew that Princess Yicheng made a special trip for him to come here, and separated Su Dingfang and Wang Xuance. It's so simple, Princess Yicheng must have a backup.

Sure enough, just as Li Ke guessed, Princess Yicheng watched the parchment in the furnace burn slowly, then suddenly turned her head, and said quietly to Li Ke: "There are not a few Turkic people who want to kill you. I protect you for a while, but I'm afraid I can't protect you forever."

coming!

Li Ke was thrilled when he heard Princess Yicheng's words.

Li Ke sighed in response to the occasion, and seemed to reply sadly: "Since Li Ke came to Turkic, he never thought that he would be able to escape unscathed. No matter what the future holds, it is his destiny."

When Princess Yicheng saw what Li Ke said, a smug flash of pride flashed in her eyes, she only thought that she had used the right method. After all, Li Ke was young, and he would naturally have more confidence when there was someone standing behind him, but now Su Dingfang and Wang Xuance were both blocked by her. Outside the door, Li Ke just read the secret letters sent by the various Turkic ministries. How can there be no reason not to be afraid?

Once Li Ke was afraid, he would naturally panic and let Princess Yicheng manipulate him.

Princess Yicheng said to Li Ke: "That being said, you don't have to worry too much. After all, Khan is in charge of the grassland. As long as Khan protects you, no one can touch you."

While speaking, Princess Yicheng secretly observed Li Ke's expression, and saw that there was nothing unusual in Li Ke's expression, and he did not move at all.

Princess Yicheng thought that Li Ke didn't understand what she meant, so she continued: "But although Khan is the king of the grasslands, he says what he says, but he still needs to see your sincerity."

What Princess Yicheng said before, Li Ke has already guessed what she meant, but he has been pretending not to know. Now that Princess Yicheng has picked up on this point, Li Ke has no room to continue to pretend to be stupid.

Li Ke asked: "I don't know what Ke Dun means?"

Princess Yicheng said: "Khan has always missed Sui's old kindness deeply, and wants to help Sui Emperor return to the Central Plains. You have a special status. If you can serve Sui Emperor, Khan will be very happy to see it."

Hearing this, Li Ke suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart, and asked pretendingly incomprehensible: "The previous Sui Dynasty has died, and I don't know where the Sui Emperor came from?"

After hearing Li Ke's words, Princess Yicheng's eyes suddenly burst into anger, and she replied with a slightly excited expression: "Emperor Sui is the son of the old Qi king Yang Hao, who appeared in Turkic, and he is still your cousin, how can you I don't know."

Li Ke looked at Princess Yicheng's appearance, and he already understood in his heart that he had no room to pretend to be stupid anymore.

Li Ke said: "Li Ke is the prince of the Tang Dynasty. He only knows the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, but he doesn't know what the emperor of the Sui Dynasty is?"

Li Ke's words immediately touched the most sensitive part of Princess Yicheng's heart. In her eyes, only Yang Sui is Zhengshuo, and Li Tang can only be a traitor forever.

Princess Yicheng snorted coldly and said: "You are the grandson of the first emperor, the son of Princess Ruyi, and also the clan of the Sui Dynasty. If you worship the Turks and regard your cousin as the emperor, when the army goes south and joins the Central Plains, you may not be able to seal it." You are the king of Tang, and the whole Taiyuan will be rewarded to you. Why are you so stubborn, if you offend Khan, you will lose your life."

Facing the threat and temptation of Princess Yicheng, Li Ke's face was calm, but his heart was full of contempt.

What Sui emperor, what Tang king, and Princess Yicheng still dreamed of borrowing Turkic troops to go south to restore the Sui Dynasty?

How did she know that today's Tang Emperor Li Shimin is the only hero in the ages, and his civil and martial arts are even more impressive, not to mention the former Sui Dynasty. In a few years, even Jieli will become Li Shimin's A prisoner, taken captive to Chang'an, dancing for Li Shimin's celebration banquet, how could her dream of restoring the Sui Dynasty come true?

In the Northern Expedition, Tang's extermination of the Turks was the general trend, and no one in this world could stop it. Li Ke was a smart man, how could he be so short-sighted, and spend his own life for the comfort of just a few years?
Li Ke said: "But Dun kept saying that the army was going south, but he didn't know whether it was the army of the Turks or the army of the Sui Dynasty. When the two countries fought, would it hurt the grassland people or the people of the Central Plains?"

Princess Yicheng saw that Li Ke didn't agree with her, so she snorted coldly and said, "So, you don't agree?"

Li Ke didn't argue too much with Princess Yicheng, but replied simply but firmly: "Li Ke's surname is Li, not a Turkic."

Princess Yicheng heard Li Ke's words, and a thought flashed in her mind. Could it be that Li Ke was worried that Jieli would turn his back on his promise because he was not a Turkic?
So Princess Yicheng said: "What should I do? Not a family can become a family. Although you are not a Turkic, you can marry a Turkic."
