Prosperous Tang Dynasty

Chapter 250 Khitan Submission
"I will pay my respects to Lord Wu Guogong Jiedushi of the Great Tang Dynasty." In the huge king's tent in Chifeng King City, a group of Khitan leaders from various tribes came to meet Li Fei.

Li Fei nodded.

"The Khitan have been neighbors with the Tang Dynasty since the founding of the Tang Dynasty. For more than a hundred years, most of the time has been loyal to the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty and the Khitan can be counted as one family. You don't need to be polite." Of course, what Li Fei said was polite. The attitude of these leaders not to participate in the war with Shele and other leader tribes today at least shows that they have given up on their new leader Mu Erhu, and will not be enemies with Datang and Anton Dufu for a period of time .

Next, it was the statement of a group of leaders, such as loyalty to the Tang Dynasty and never betraying, anyway, how to say it nicely, there is a bit of sincerity in it, Li Fei didn't bother to guess.

The rest were trivial matters in Khitan. Out of respect for Li Fei, or to please Li Fei and make Li Fei lose face, they all brought it up and let Li Fei decide.

Li Fei knew that they were also trying to please him. Although these things basically had nothing to do with him, he also raised some opinions casually. Whether it was right or wrong, anyway, as long as it wasn't too much, these leaders were willing to accept it.

What Li Fei wants to decide the most is actually the issue of Khitan setting up a new leader in the future. In the current situation, it is impossible for the army of the Anton Governor's Mansion to be stationed in the Khitan territory, so there must always be a leader in the Khitan territory. When the leader returns, he will also lead the various ministries to defeat the leader of Mu Erhu, so as to completely solve this last problem.

Li Fei pondered for a moment, whetted the appetite of all the leaders present before speaking.

"Princess Yangu is the princess of Huaixiu Khan, and also the jewel of your Khitan. From now on, Princess Yangu will be the master of Khitan affairs. What do you think?"

"Princess Yangu decides?" How could it be Princess Yangu!All the leaders were shocked by Li Fei's words.

They originally thought that Li Fei might suggest that Yelucha be the master. After all, Yelucha is the confidant of Huaixiu Khan, and he came from the tribe of Huaixiu Khan. This time, he and Princess Yangu followed Li Fei back to Khitan. As the new leader of the Khitan, the leaders of the various tribes were convinced by the face of Li Fei and Datang, but they never thought that Li Fei would mention Princess Yangu, a 17-year-old Khitan girl Son?

Even if she is the daughter of Huaixiu Khan, but the daughter is not a son, and besides, she is so young, even if she is a son, at this age, what ability does she have to lead the various ministries of Khitan?

"My lord, how can this be possible! Since the birth of Khitan, there has never been a woman as a leader. Not only Khitan, but also the Xi people and other ethnic groups deep in the grassland, there is no such example." One of the leaders exclaimed, although the other leaders They didn't call out, but judging from their expressions, these words undoubtedly represented all the voices in their hearts.

"What does it matter? From ancient times to the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the Central Plains has not had a female emperor for thousands of years, but the previous generation of Empress Wu Zetian did not need to rule the Central Plains. Moreover, during the period of Empress Wu Zetian, the prosperity of the Central Plains was no worse than that of Zhenguan Taizong 'Tian Khan'. "Li Fei directly cited the example of Empress Wu Zetian.

"Furthermore, it's only temporary. Don't you still have Yelucha and the leaders to assist you?" Li Fei said with a calm smile.

"This, this—" the leaders really want to say that the grassland is fundamentally different from the Central Plains dynasty. Women have always been just accessories. The grassland respects the strong, and women are born weak. How can they lead the ethnic group to fight against foreign races?How to expand the territory of the ethnic group?
What the grassland always needs is the leadership of the strong.

"Or any of the leaders who think they have the ability to be the new leader of Khitan can recommend themselves!" Li Fei mentioned with a smile.

"This, this—" The leaders were choked again, who would dare to recommend themselves and say that they are capable of being the new leader?There are so many leaders here, and several of them are leaders of large tribes with a population of over [-]. Whoever is convinced, whoever dares to stand up and say that he is capable of being the new leader, will immediately become the target of public criticism.

Li Fei only waited for about four or five breaths, without giving the leaders time to change, he spoke again.

"Look, everyone doesn't have a good candidate, so it's okay to be like this for the time being. When there is a good candidate in the future, we can discuss it slowly." Li Fei said lightly, what does it mean that no one has a good candidate, so he recommended himself to stand up and say Of course, no one would dare to be competent, but if these leaders were allowed to negotiate for a while, and several large tribes with a population of over [-] compromised with each other, it might not be impossible to elect a new leader that everyone believed in, but Li Fei did not give Time for them to negotiate with each other.

All the leaders present couldn't say any objection for a while, and held their breath in their chests, it was really uncomfortable.But in view of Li Fei's strength, he did not dare to shout loudly in front of Li Fei, and stubbornly opposed it.

That's all, let Princess Yangu be Huaixiu Khan's daughter after all, and with Datang's support, let her take the title first, it's better than choosing someone else now.

Princess Yangu takes the title first, and they will still have the opportunity to fight to make themselves the leader in the future, but once one of the several big tribes takes the title in front of Li Fei today, then they will want to take the title of leader in the future. It's much harder to take it over.

"Okay, I'll support your lord's proposal and temporarily appoint Princess Yanu as the new leader to assist Princess Yanu." The leaders of several big tribes expressed their opinions first.

"I have met the new leader!" The leaders of the tribes saluted Princess Yangu again, clearly confirming Princess Yangu's status.

Li Fei smiled, no one noticed the calculation in the depths of his eyes.

As for Princess Yangu, she was dumbfounded the moment the leaders came to worship her.

"I, I can't—" Princess Yangu wanted to decline in horror, but Li Fei who was beside Li Fei suddenly grabbed her hand and interrupted her.

"Why not, Yelucha and the leaders all support you and will assist you. You can just do it freely. If you find that you are really incapable in the future, you can call on everyone to find someone else." Li Fei comforted Yan Princess Gu, use the word 'drag' to decide, Princess Yangu should take the position of the new leader of Khitan now anyway.

"Yelucha, as Huaixiu Khan's confidant general, he may have also watched Princess Yangu grow up, so it's okay for you to assist her temporarily." Li Fei looked at Yelucha and asked.

In the depths of Yelucha's eyes, there was also a trace of strangeness that was difficult for outsiders to catch, and he stood up with a serious face.

"Yelucha swears allegiance to Princess Yangu to the death, and is willing to assist Princess Yangu in leading Khitan." Yelucha knelt down on one knee in front of Princess Yangu, and directly swore the oath, as if extremely solemn.

"So, let's make a decision first!" Li Fei narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile on his face.
