Xingyang.

The Zheng family in Xingyang was actually the first to know that Youzhou was besieged by the Turkic army.

The Zheng family in Xingyang had been delivering food and grass to Youzhou, but after the Turkic army besieged the city, this supply line was cut off. Zheng Yuanzhou was panicked for a while when he learned about this.

"Father, 10,000+ Turkic troops are besieging Youzhou City. What should we do now? His Majesty the Grand Sun is in danger!"

Zheng Yuanzhou hurried back to Zheng Mansion and said to Zheng Jibo anxiously.

The latter frowned and scolded: "Why are you panic! If you are like this when something happens, how can you expect me to trust you in the future of the Zheng family?"

Zheng Yuanzhou's expression froze when he heard this, but he immediately obeyed and obeyed the instructions honestly, not daring to refute at all.

After scolding his son, Zheng Jibo put down his cup and said, "Tell me exactly what the specific situation is in Youzhou."

"Yes, father."

Zheng Yuanzhou nodded, and then said: "His Royal Highness Taisun beheaded all the Turkic nobles who had been kidnapped from the Turkic royal court. This made the Turkic high-level officials furious and directly sent troops to attack."

"But it took a whole day, but the Turks failed to capture Youzhou City. Instead, they suffered heavy losses. Now they have given up the attack and plan to besiege Youzhou City."

"If this continues, we will no longer be able to transport food and grass to Youzhou City. The food and grass in His Highness Taisun's city will not last long. By then..."

Zheng Yuanzhou hesitated to speak, but Zheng Jibo knew what he meant.

Without food and grass, it would be difficult for the army in the city to hold on for even a day. By then, it would be easy for the Turks to break through the city.

"How did Chang'an react?"

After thinking for a moment, Zheng Jibo asked.

Mentioning this matter, Zheng Yuanzhou couldn't help flashing a trace of anger on his face, and replied: "There was no response from Chang'an. Even the news was suppressed and did not spread. There was no intention of sending troops to rescue Chang'an! I see that Li Shimin just planned to let His Highness Taisun die at the hands of the Turks!"

Hearing this, Zheng Jibo snorted and said, "Not sending troops? He, Li Shimin, is not so bold! He just wants to wait until His Highness Taisun can no longer hold on, then send troops to take over Youzhou and repel the Turkic army!"

"In this way, we can reap great military achievements and completely weaken His Highness the Grand Sun. It is really a good calculation."

Jiang is still very old, and Zheng Jibo has a unique vision, and he can guess Li Shimin's real plan at a glance.

"This Li Shimin is really hateful! How can the internal strife of the royal family be carried out by the hands of foreign barbarians?!"

Zheng Yuanzhou was very angry and disgusted with Li Shimin's behavior.

"There is nothing he can't do to fight for the throne of emperor. In the end, he is just a winner and a loser. How he writes history is not left to him to whitewash it."

Zheng Jibo sneered, a glimmer of light flashing in his muddy old eyes.

"Oh, how can I let him get what he wants? Since he refuses to send troops, we will force him to send troops!"

"You immediately spread rumors in Chang'an City, saying that the King of Qin intends to watch the Turks kill me, the grandson of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and seize the throne!"

After hearing Zheng Jibo's instructions, Zheng Yuanzhou's eyes suddenly lit up and he said clearly: "I understand, father, I will do it right away!"

After that, he hurriedly left the study.

...Under the operation of the Zheng family in Xingyang, a piece of news quickly spread in Chang'an City in just a few days.

Originally, the Turkic army's attack on Youzhou City was deliberately blocked by Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji, so not many people knew about it.

However, after the Zheng family in Xingyang deliberately spread the news, the news quickly became known to the general public.

And not long after, another news came out.

His great-grandson Li Chengdao had already fought to the death with the Turkic army in Youzhou, killing the Turkic army and retreating. He was also injured and suffered heavy losses, but he still persisted in refusing to retreat and resisted the Turks to the death!
These two pieces of news spread quickly in Chang'an City, and all the people were extremely angry for a while.

"The Turks besieged the city of Chang'an, and now they have invaded the border of Youzhou. Do you really think that the Tang Dynasty is weak and can be bullied?"

"Kill all those Turkic dogs!"

"My grandson defends the country and would rather die than retreat! Doesn't our Tang Dynasty have such a bloody man as your highness?"

"His Royal Highness Taisun has just passed the age of tying his hair, but he has put us all to shame!"

"I am willing to go to the border to help His Royal Highness Taisun fight against the enemy!"

"I want to go too!"

……

The entire government and the public were boiling, and countless people felt excited because of Li Chengdao's actions.

But what puzzled countless people at the same time was why the court didn't react at all to such a big thing?This is a foreign invasion of the border!

Gradually, rumors began to spread.

"The King of Qin, the regent, deliberately did not rush to the border to help, in an attempt to make His Highness the Grand Sun fight to the death in order to win the throne!"

This terrifying rumor spread like fire.

Li Shimin's image and prestige in the hearts of the people of the Tang Dynasty were originally very high, but after killing his brother to force his father and compromising with the Turks, his prestige was greatly reduced.

Therefore, after this rumor spread, it caused excitement among the people.

The grandson was fighting a desperate battle with the Turks on the front line, but the majestic King Qin planned to kill the grandson with the help of the Turks in order to seize the throne?
How can you be so shameless!
Not long after, groups of people began to gather in groups to protest in front of the government office, asking the court to respond and send troops to aid Youzhou.

There were thousands of people protesting. With such a scale, even the imperial court did not dare to suppress them. For fear of causing a civil uprising, they could only comfort them while asking Tiance Mansion for instructions.

……

Inside Tiance Mansion.

"How could these news get out! Who did it?"

Li Shimin was so angry that the Three Corpse Gods were furious. He specifically asked Changsun Wuji to suppress the news from the front line, just because he didn't want to cause too much reaction among the people. Who would have thought that it would now spread like wildfire!
What's even more irritating is that he only planned to use the hands of the Turks to consume Li Chengdao's troops. When did he say that he could not send troops and let Li Chengdao die in the hands of the Turks?

That would be an insult to himself!He never planned it that way!
