Chastity Layman

  Chapter 503 Subjugation Disaster

   This is a beauty.

  Amazing beauty.

   "Seeing you, I finally know why Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty went on expeditions to the Western Regions again and again."

   "Mr. Wei is too good at joking, and I can't afford to be a little girl." She opened and closed her small cherry mouth, but the words she uttered were so soft that the ears of the listener were extremely comfortable.

   "You are not only beautiful, but also gentle. What you say in this small mouth makes my ears feel pregnant."

   "Hee hee, Wei Gong's words are really naughty."

  Qin Lang carefully examined this beauty. This is a real beauty. Even if it is put into later generations, it will definitely conform to the aesthetics of the public.

  Tall figure, slender stature, with a pair of long legs, but those legs are not the skinny kind, but slender and well-proportioned, even extremely fit. She has black hair covered in braids, and has a wheat-colored skin. Although it is not white, this healthier complexion is actually more beautiful than the sickly white one.

  She has cute canine teeth, charming dimples, a straight nose, **** eyes, extremely long eyelashes, a well-defined face, and a strong sense of three-dimensionality. This is a beauty with a mixed color taste.

   Long fingers and strong arms.

  A short sword is pinned to the waist, and a zipa is carried on the back.

  The whole person looks slender and thin, but his limbs are very fit.

  There is not a trace of fat in the thin part, the lower abdomen is flat and smooth, and the collarbone is protruding, which can raise small goldfish, but it is also very charming.

   To be honest, Qin Lang rarely met such an amazing woman in Datang.

   "As soon as I saw you, I fell into this gentle village." Qin Lang put his arms around the beauty's waist.

   "Hmph," she bit Qin Lang's earlobe lightly, "Did Wei Gong's mouth be wiped with honey?"

   "Then try it!"

"It is said that Mr. Wei is romantic and unrestrained, with countless beauties in the mansion. The girls' schoolbooks and female recorders who are famous in Chang'an are all hidden in the golden house of Mr. Wei, and how many men in Chang'an have beaten their chests. Not to mention, Mr. Wei's backyard There are also all kinds of beauties from various countries and ethnic groups, I heard that even the emperor's harem is not so complete!"

   "That's all rumors, at least I didn't have you before."

  ·······

  In the early morning, Qin Lang walked out of the room.

The young Zhang Chao came over holding the leopard's head, "Sanlang got up an hour late today, the sun is high, and the coolest morning is over." He patted the leopard's head again, "This guy If I hadn't stopped him and given it a pot of Guogong wine, it would have kicked Saburo's door a long time ago."

  Qin Lang is quite satisfied with this young man. He is the son of Zhang Tieqiang, the general of his father Qin Qiong's hometown. Zhang Tieqiang is beside Qin Qiong, which is the same as the old horse head Ah Huang beside Qin Lang.

  Qin Lang couldn't help thinking of Ah Huang again, this guy didn't know how used to it in Wu'an Prefecture.

   "What do you think of this woman?"

Zhang Chao curled his lips, "What does Saburo want to ask me? If it's about appearance, then it can naturally be described with words like "Qing Guo Qing Cheng", but "Qing Guo Qing Cheng" is not a good word at all. Renguo, to put it bluntly, is actually a troublesome beauty, Saburo should be careful."

   "It's not a sin to be good-looking. Everyone has a love for beauty. And I hate to describe women as disasters. You said that King Zhou's death has nothing to do with Daji?"

  Zhang Chao said unceremoniously, "Of course it has something to do with being charming and seductive. In ancient times, there was King You of Zhou's Fenghuo opera, and he only smiled for Pomeranians. Recently, there is also the story of Gao Wei and Feng Xiaolian, the Empress of the Northern Qi Dynasty."

"The one who subjugated the country is the faint king. King Zhou You and the Empress of Qi are both stupid kings. As for Bao Si or Feng Xiaolian, how can the subjugation of the country be blamed on a group of women, and they are called disasters, and they are not in charge of state affairs. , but not governing the country." Qin Lang still believed that if he was in his position to seek his own government, whoever neglected his duties in his position was his responsibility.

Zhang Chao reminded Qin Lang, "This beauty has a lot of background. She was originally the woman of Yehu Khan, the Western Turkic ruler. She was the daughter of Emperor Heraclius of Rome. She was sent to Western Turkic because he had just quelled the Eighth Route Army of Rome. During the year of civil turmoil, after the establishment of the Roman Heraclius dynasty, they wanted to resist the invasion of the Persian emperor Kush, so they sent their daughters to Western Turks in order to borrow troops to fight back against Persia."

   "Your kid knows a lot about these Xiyi."

   "I've been collecting news about the Western Regions recently, and I know a little bit about it." Zhang Chao was a little proud.

According to what Zhang Chao said, at this time in the West, there are three major powers, namely the old Roman Empire, also known as the Eastern Roman Empire, later called the Byzantine Empire in history books, and the other is the Persian Empire. These two old empires They have been fighting for hundreds of years.

   Another powerful country is the West Turkic Khanate separated from the Turkic Khanate. The West Turkic Khanate was only a westward expansion branch of the Turkic Khanate. Later, during the struggle for the throne among the Eight Khans, Abo Khan separated and established the Western Turkic Khanate. After Abo’s defeat, Datou Khan continued to carry the Western Turkic Khan. national flag.

However, Sabolo, the great Khan, wanted to start the emerging Sui Dynasty because of his death. As a result, the Sui Emperor Yang Jian and Changsun Sheng jointly used the strategy of separating the strong from the weak, dividing and attacking, and the eight khans of the Turkic Khanate competed , In the end Sabolo was defeated.

  After that, Dulan, Qimin, Abo, and Datou fought in chaos. After the Five Khans War, Qimin Khan finally led the Eastern Turks, and the two sides completely separated.

  When the Western Turks were not yet self-reliant, they were extremely fierce and fought all the way to the Volga River on the Black Coast. They also once united with the Persians to wipe out the descendants of the White Huns, who occupied Tocharo and entered the Indus River Basin and the Afghan plateau, and the family was divided in half.

  It’s just that the Western Turks didn’t keep their promises and were dissatisfied after dividing half. Soon after, they went to war against Persia and snatched most of the remaining half, so Persia and Western Turks became sworn enemies.

  But in the most powerful period, the Western Turks did not beat Persia, and even went to war with Eastern Rome at the same time.

   One family picks two, and fights stop and go.

   Later, the subjugation of the Justinian dynasty in Rome was actually closely related to the Western Turks.

  However, since the Western Turks were involved in the internal strife of the Turkic Khanate, their strength has also been greatly damaged. Although they separated independently, their actual strength is not as good as before.

   What is more amazing is that when the Western Turks were busy returning to the Eastern internal strife, the Eastern Roman Dynasty, the Justinian Dynasty, and the Persian Sasanian Dynasty all fell into imperial civil strife.

  The Justinian Dynasty collapsed and eight years of civil strife ended. Heraclius finally overthrew Phocas, who killed the king and usurped the throne, and established the Heraclius Dynasty, which is also the fourth dynasty of the Eastern Roman Empire. The emperor of the Persian Sasanian Empire, Kuslao, was also usurped by his son during the civil strife.

  Up to now, after the death of the two more promising brothers Khan, Shekui and Tongyehu, the Western Turks have once again fallen into the war of civil strife between the north and the south.

  Persia and Rome are still at war.

Heraclius, who had just ascended the throne, married his daughter to Tong Yehu, borrowed 100,000 soldiers from the Western Turks, and attacked Persia in the Caucasus, opening up a second battlefield for Rome. The Asia Minor peninsula and Egypt on the southern coast of the Mediterranean counterattacked Persia across the board.

   That marriage was very successful.

  Heraclius' daughter Diana married Tong Yehu Khan in the eighth year of Wude. At that time, Tong Yehu had succeeded his elder brother Shekui Khan as Khan for seven years. He led hundreds of thousands of people who controlled strings, joined Tiele in the north, rejected Persia in the west, and joined Kubin in the south to dominate the Western Regions.

  Moved the royal court to Qianquan in the north of Shiguo.

  He conferred the title of "Jie Lifa" on the king of the countries in the Western Regions, and sent a Tutun person to each country to supervise and collect tribute.

   It is the time when the momentum is at its peak.

   Command the Western Regions, dare not follow.

But for the Central Plains, Tong Yehu was still relatively cautious at that time, because the Eastern Turks were extremely powerful at that time, so Tong Yehu, who had just conquered the Western Regions, continued the strategy of his brother Shekui Khan, which was to make friends with the Tang Dynasty and jointly deal with it. East Turkic.

  In the seventh year of Wude, Tong Yehu Khan also sent envoys to Chang'an to propose marriage to Datang. Li Yuan followed Pei Ju's suggestion of making distant friends and close attacks, and sent his nephew Gaoping Wang Li Daoli to West Turkic to express his consent.

   It was only later that the Eastern Turkic Jieli Khan invaded the border one after another, blocked the road between the Tang Dynasty and the Western Turkic, and threatened the marriage, so the marriage failed.

  After Tong Yehu failed to propose marriage with Datang and marry the princess, it happened that the Eastern Roman Emperor Heraclius sent someone to ask for a marriage marriage and offered to marry the princess himself.

   In the end, Tong Yehu, who failed to marry Princess Datang, married Princess Diana, the daughter of Emperor Heraclius. And sent 100,000 troops to help Rome defeat Persia.

  After helping Rome defeat Persia, Tong Yehu was very conceited and caused a rebellion among the troops. A year ago, Tongyehu Khan was killed by his uncle Mo Hedu.

  The ten divisions on the left and right sides of the West Turkic Turks, and because of this internal strife, finally formed the situation where the two khans in the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains stand side by side.

  After Tong Yehu was killed by his uncle, Princess Diana also fell into the hands of Mo He Duo. According to the Turkic tradition, Mo He Duo had the right to take over the wives and concubines of the former Great Khan.

However, because Diana was the daughter of the Eastern Roman Emperor, Mo Hedu did not dare to mess around. First, he respected and worshiped Emperor Heraclius very much. Slay another Khan.

   It’s just that this abacus was not successful, because Eastern Rome and Persia fought endlessly, and there was no room for intervening in the affairs of Western Turks. The Roman emperor rejected Mohedu's request to borrow troops, and refused to remarry his daughter to Mohedu. He also accused him of being a murderer and a regicide, and asked him to hand over the position of the Great Khan.

  In a fit of rage, Mo He originally wanted the overlord to attack Diana by force, but who knew that she would rather die than obey, she never left her hand with a knife, and there was no chance at all. Annoyed, Mohe Du finally sent Princess Diana to Tuyuhun, and sent her to Tuyuhun Khan Fuyun in exchange for his reinforcements.

  Fu Yun also failed to possess Diana, and was almost stabbed. The old guy finally came to borrow flowers to present Buddha, and simply sent Diana, who could only be seen but not touched, to Chang'an, and presented it to the Emperor of Tang Dynasty.

  Fu Yun didn't say that Diana was Tong Yehu's wife at the beginning, let alone that she was the daughter of the Roman emperor, but that she was a beauty from the Western Regions.

  The emperor was in Luoyang, with a swipe of a pen, he rewarded this beauty to Qin Lang.

   Li Shimin may want to use this to make up for the unhappiness that Zheng Wanyan made when he was in Luoyang. But he didn't expect that with a flick of his pen, he would give Qin Lang a princess from West Turkic Ketun and East Rome.

When the princess arrived at Qin Lang, Qin Lang was not as impatient as those old guys like Mo Hedu and Fu Yun. When they first met, he was very polite, and even asked about her background, etc. After finding out her background, Qin Lang He actually expressed his willingness to help her.

  The young, handsome and polite Duke Wei of the Tang Dynasty won the favor of Princess Diana. After getting along for a period of time, the princess actually took the initiative to throw himself into his arms.

  Zhang Chao has always felt that there is a problem here.

  He thought that this princess was either a fake, or she was already the emperor's person, and she was sent to Qin Lang with a different purpose.

  Qin Lang waved his hand, signaling to Zhang Chao not to say any more.

   "I have my own discretion in this matter."
