Datang: I am so happy to marry a disfigured princess!

Chapter 77: Give him a false shot first!
The next morning, when the mission was finished repairing, Wang Jingchuan took weak steps and spent a lot of energy before mounting his horse.

Seeing this, Su Dingfang smiled and said: "It can be seen that Mr. Wang had a good time last night!"

Wang Jingchuan also had a smile on his face, as if he still had something to say.

Then continue to go north, exit Yumen Pass, and enter the Hexi Corridor.

After two days of marching, a large group of people arrived. Seeing this, Lin Heng frowned and couldn't help but tighten the spray gun in his hand.

enemy?

Su Dingfang smiled and said: "The hoofbeats of the prairie war horses are so loud and powerful, and the horses' honking is high and powerful. They should be Turks."

Not long after, the team of men and horses felt that the leader stood up and dismounted and saluted: "I have seen the envoys of the Tang Dynasty. We will welcome the envoys of the Tang Dynasty into the pass in the name of the Khan."

Lin Heng nodded: "Lead the way."

Then following this group of Turks, they went all the way north. Gradually, the surrounding environment changed. They could see meadows and green spaces. When the grasslands completely replaced the desert, everyone finally reached the Turks' territory.

Lin Heng smiled and said: "Everyone, it's time to get down to business."

Su Dingfang smiled and nodded: "What is Consort Lin's plan?"

Lin Heng thought for a moment: "Let's see what Si Yehu's attitude is first. After all, this matter is also difficult. Well, Mr. Wang, what's wrong with you?"

Since entering the capital, Wang Jingchuan's expression has been a little bad, and he seems to be a little scared. At this moment, he was shocked when Lin Heng asked him.

"I may be a little acclimatized."

Lin Heng said with a smile: "Isn't Mr. Wang quite energetic when he was in Liangzhou? What's going on now? Oh, don't worry, I will definitely take care of the ashes!"

Su Dingfang also said loudly: "Don't be afraid, Consort Lin is true to his words. Even if he forgets by then, I will definitely help you send your ashes back safely!"

Wang Jingchuan thought to himself: Do I want my ashes to go back?What's the point of returning the ashes?

But he could hear the knocking in the words of Lin Heng and the two.

You are here to do business. You can enjoy yourself as much as you like in the Tang Dynasty. Don't leave the Tang Dynasty. You will lose the face of the Tang Dynasty!

He was not a fool, so he quickly handed over his hands and said: "Thank you both, but I still want to go back by myself, so I won't bother."

Lin Heng narrowed his eyes. These civil servants all had the same moral character. They were greedy for life and fearful of death and loved vanity. It was probably because no one in the Ministry of Rites pushed him out, so he was pushed out.

Then the Turks arranged for Lin Heng and others, and Mu Da, the envoy who had previously gone to the Tang Dynasty, also arrived quickly.

"Dear envoys, Khan is already waiting. Please come with me."

Lin Heng took the golden sword given by Li Shimin and brought the trolls with him. Su Dingfang also called some twenty people to follow him.

Si Ye was guarding the tent, and the man at the head of the table, with thick eyebrows and a big beard, couldn't stop laughing when he saw Lin Heng and others.

"Welcome the envoys from the Tang Dynasty who have come from afar. The food and wine are ready. Please enjoy!"

Lin Heng and others returned the courtesy and sat down. There was no one else in the tent except Si Yehu and a few of his cronies.

Mu Da introduced: "This is the Prince Consort of the Tang Dynasty, Lin Heng. This is General Su Dingfang Su. This is."

Si Yehu was a little surprised when he heard Lin Heng's identity: "Consort of the Tang Dynasty? His Majesty Tian Khan actually sent the consort of the Tang Dynasty here. You really value us! Consort Lin, I give you a toast!"

Lin Heng picked up the wine bowl and drank it all in one gulp, then smiled and said: "As a country of the Tang Dynasty, the Turks must take it very seriously when something happens and they ask for help."

Hearing this, Si Yehu's face looked a little ugly, but he quickly smiled and toasted Su Dingfang and others with drinks, and then Si Yehu stated: "Now, the internal situation in our country is a bit confusing, and I won't be able to explain it clearly for a while. , I just ask Prince Consort Lin to stay for a while." Hearing this, Lin Heng raised his eyebrows: "Stay for a while? It's not impossible, then please ask Khan to take us to see various places during this time, I will go back I can report it to His Majesty later."

Si Yehu smiled and said: "That's right. During this period, Muda also told me about the situation in the Tang Dynasty. Is His Majesty Tian Khan in good health now?"

"Everything is fine with Your Majesty. He is just concerned about the situation on the Turkic side, so he sent me here."

Lin Heng said slowly, and then he looked at the two people standing aside.

Su Dingfang was sitting upright with a solemn expression. Wang Jingchuan, who was sitting next to him, was trembling and silent at the moment.

Lin Heng sighed in his heart, he didn't count on him in the first place.

Si Yehu asked: "I heard that many places in the Tang Dynasty have suffered disasters. His Majesty Tian Khan did not provide direct relief at the beginning. Is that why?"

Seeing the concern on Si Yehu's face, Lin Heng said frankly: "Some time ago, there was a vacancy in the Tang Dynasty's treasury, which resulted in the inability to provide immediate assistance. Your Majesty was very sad, so taking money from the palace for relief can also be regarded as letting the people To be able to survive.”

Hearing this, Si Yehu narrowed his eyes: "Can the current Tang Dynasty rescue our country?"

Lin Heng said with a smile: "Of course, as long as you spend some of the military funds allocated to the border troops, there will be no problem."

When Su Dingfang heard about military expenditures, he was immediately stunned. Doesn't His Majesty have no money?Where do the military expenditures come from for the border troops?

Everyone present could not help but frown. Si Yehu was stunned for a moment and asked again: "I don't know, Prince Consort Lin, why do we allocate so much military expenditure to the border army?"

Lin Heng sighed slightly: "There is nothing we can do about it. His Majesty always feels that the border is uneasy, and he is thinking about it. If I say more, Khan can just pretend that I haven't said anything. In fact, I don't know your Majesty's plan." .”

Lin Heng laughed after saying this, but Si Yehu couldn't laugh anymore.

The news they learned was that the Tang Dynasty was empty and had no money to support the war. If this was true, they would have a chance.

But after hearing Lin Heng's threat, Si Yehu couldn't help but hesitate.

He asked Muda in Mongolian: "Is what this Central Plains man said true?"

"I don't know. We have investigated and found nothing like this, but recently the Khan did spend a large amount of money to relieve the victims. The information I investigated did not come from the palace, but from the prince consort. .”

"Consort Lin?"

Muda nodded: "I heard that this man runs many businesses and has many contacts with businessmen in Persia and other places. He makes a lot of money, and he is the consort of Tian Khan."

Does this mean that if Tian Khan needs money, he can get it from this consort?
Si Yehu was stunned. He had also heard that Persians and others often passed through the Hexi Corridor recently, and each time they spent a large amount of tolls. There were also businessmen from the Turks going to the Central Plains. It was said that they were in the perfume and soap business. Very popular in Turks.

The prince-in-law, who serves as an envoy, seems to be very wealthy.
Lin Heng looked at Si Yehu with a smile. Although he didn't know what Si Yehu said, he could guess what he was thinking.

Will Your Majesty fight now?Definitely not. After all, it would cost too much money to start a war, but the Turks themselves did not dare to fight.

If they seize this mentality and make a feint, they will fall into a state of doubt because they have no way to confirm the authenticity.

They also felt that Datang did not dare to fight, but what if they really fought?

After a long time, Si Yehu seemed to have figured out something, and a smile appeared on his face again.

"If that's the case, that would be great. In the next few days, I will send people to take Prince Consort Lin to visit various places to find out the real situation. Now my country hopes that Datang can help."

Lin Heng said with a smile: "Since we are a member of the Tang Dynasty, everything is easy to talk about."
