Chapter 70 Zhao Deyan's Choice

When Zhao Deyan came out of the dungeon, he was still not completely relieved.

Kang Sumi's words still echoed in his ears, "The cunning rabbit dies, the running dog cooks", Kang Sumi will fall into this field, of course there is a reason for the Kang family's suicide, but Jieli treats Kang Sumi coldly. The attitude also made Zhao Deyan hang his heart.

Today is Kang Sumi, if those Turkic nobles turn against him in the future, how will he protect himself?

Kang Sumi's advice to him was to defect to Western Turks.

Since more than 40 years ago, the East and West Turks were separated and ruled in the west of the river. The East and West Turks have been doing their own things, and there have been wars from time to time, and the relationship has been bad.

The current Western Turkic Khan Yehu Khan is a generation of heroes. He has fought in the east and the west. The Western Turkic has reached its peak, and it is not even weaker than the Eastern Turkic in the hands of Jieli Khan.

With Zhao Deyan's status today, if he defected to Western Turks, Khan Tong Yehu would definitely accept him and worship him as a guest of honour, but is this really a good opportunity?
Moreover, Zhao Deyan only found out today that Kang Sumi seemed to be loyal to Xieli, but unexpectedly hooked up with Tong Yehu of the Western Turks secretly. It seems that his loyalty to Xieli is also very limited. Kang Amu His death is not wronged.

Just as Zhao Deyan was walking back, wondering whether he should listen to Kang Sumi's words and make this deal with him, the shadows of the two suddenly appeared in Zhao Deyan's eyes in the dark by the side of the road, and Zhao Deyan was shocked. trembling.

"Ms. Zhao is in a good mood. You're still hanging out at such a late hour?" Li Ke's voice appeared in Zhao Deyan's ear.

Hearing Li Ke's voice, Zhao Deyan finally secretly let out a sigh of relief.

If other people were here, he would worry that his conversation with Kang Sumi would be exposed and Xieli would know about it, but Li Ke would not.

Zhao Deyan cupped his hands towards Li Ke, and said: "Responding to the third prince, this official is ordered by Khan to interrogate Kang Sumi."

The dungeon was heavily guarded, so Li Ke couldn't get in, but he knew that Zhao Deyan had gone to look for Kang Sumi and had been waiting here for a long time.

Li Ke said with a smile to Zhao Deyan: "Master Zhao is indeed diligent, but at this moment he is still diligent in following the king's orders. Li Ke really admires him."

Zhao Deyan said: "The lower official comes from a poor family, he is not as honorable as His Highness, only in this way can he retain a seat in the Turkic court."

Li Ke smiled and said: "Mr. Zhao is humble. With Mr. Zhao's talent, where can he not be the best?"

Zhao Deyan only thought that Li Ke was talking politely to him, so he said modestly: "Your Highness is too high-ranking, I am ashamed to be an official."

But Li Ke's face suddenly became serious, put away the expression of laughter on his face, and said to Zhao Deyan solemnly: "Li Ke's words are absolutely not false. If Zhao Xiangruo wants to go to Datang, as long as Zhao Xiang asks, I will protect Mr. Zhao Deyan." Hall officer."

The one official in Li Ke's mouth is at least a fourth-rank official position, even in Chang'an City where the rich and powerful are everywhere.

If it is said by others, it is naturally possible to brag, but it is absolutely not from Li Ke's mouth.

First of all, Li Ke is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, the prince of the dynasty. As Li Ke, it is not difficult to recommend a fourth-rank official position. Moreover, the Tang Dynasty is currently confronting the Turkic North and the South. With Zhao Deyan's status in the Turkic If it is Nantou, it will be of great significance to the Tang Dynasty. At that time, let alone a court official, even the third division of Kaifu Yitong will be necessary.

Looking at Li Ke's appearance, Zhao Deyan was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect Li Ke to say that, and for a moment Zhao Deyan didn't know how to reply him.

Seeing Zhao Deyan stunned, Li Ke suddenly had a thought in his heart: Given Zhao Deyan's current situation, it seems that it is definitely not impossible to win over Zhao Deyan.

So, Li Ke continued: "Li Ke's words come from the bottom of my heart, sir, there is no need to question it."

Although Li Ke was young, Zhao Deyan did not dare to underestimate Li Ke, nor did he know Li Ke's real intentions. After a while, he said to Li Ke: "Khan has the kindness to know you, the third prince, and you need to be careful about what you say. And the third prince is late at night. Is it here for this purpose?"

Zhao Deyan didn't know Li Ke's real intentions, nor was he sure what Li Ke was thinking, so he simply didn't answer Li Ke's words, and directly brought up other topics.

Zhao Deyan was not sure about Li Ke, and Li Ke never understood Zhao Deyan.

Now that Li Ke is in Turkic, what Li Ke said just now is a little inappropriate. If Xieli knows these words, Li Ke will definitely have no good fruit to eat.

Li Ke smiled when he heard the words, and said to Zhao Deyan: "Just a joke, if Zhao Xiang thinks what you said just now is inappropriate, then it's all a joke. My king's words come out of my king's mouth and enter Zhao Xiang's ears. No one else will know. Let Khan know, it’s not easy for you and me.”

If Li Ke wins over Zhao Deyan, if Jieli finds out, it is not only Li Ke who has been drawn to someone who is in a difficult situation, but also Zhao Deyan who has been drawn to.

Zhao Deyan said to Li Ke: "Your Highness is a smart person, and I'm not stupid. I know the seriousness. I will never reveal a word of what I said just now. If Your Highness has no other orders, I will leave."

As Zhao Deyan said, he made a gesture and wanted to leave.

Just when Zhao Deyan was about to leave, Li Ke suddenly said: "Mr. Zhao stay, I still have something to ask."

Li Ke specially sent someone to watch Zhao Deyan, and he came out to wait in such a late night, so naturally he wouldn't just talk to Zhao Deyan about these irrelevant things.

Zhao Deyan asked: "Your Highness has spent so much effort, but I don't know what is important."

Li Ke said: "Prime Minister Zhao just brought Kang Sumi to interrogation, so Kang Sumi must have talked a lot with Prime Minister Zhao."

Zhao Deyan smiled and said, "I said something."

Li Ke said: "What did Kang Sumi and Prime Minister Zhao say? It's inconvenient for me to ask more, but I want to borrow something from my husband."

Li Ke wanted Zhao Deyan to borrow something?Zhao Deyan couldn't help feeling a little curious when he heard Li Ke's words.

Zhao Deyan asked: "Your Highness is honorable, what can I lend to Your Highness?"

Li Ke said slowly: "Fate, Kang Sumi's life."

Zhao Deyan said: "Your Highness wants to kill Kang Sumi? Kang Sumi is already doomed, so His Highness's doing so may be superfluous."

Li Ke said: "It's difficult for Kang Sumi to live this time, but the so-called long nights and dreams, this king wants Kang Sumi to die, the sooner the better. Zhao Xiang is a smart man, so he naturally knows what this king means."

Li Ke used one word for Zhao Deyan's words: "borrow". This word made Zhao Deyan very puzzled.

Zhao Deyan asked: "Can this life be borrowed?"

Li Ke nodded, and said to Li Ke with deep meaning: "Of course, Zhao Xiang lent Kang Sumi's life to this king today. When he comes to Japan, the king will definitely exchange his life for Zhao Xiang, and Zhao Xiang will never suffer."
