Chapter 379 Intrigue (1)

PreviousBack to directoryNext
The political struggles of the Turks have always been direct and brutal, and there are endless cases where the stronger wins.

In short, their political IQ is low and they can't pull off any tricks, so they always get bloody.

Therefore, it was impossible for Ashinabiji to guess what Ketun was thinking.

Of course, he would not be foolish enough to think that Ke Dun really wanted to give his brother a hand and send him to the throne with all his strength.

Such good intentions may only be waiting for a miracle from the gods, rather than anything else.

The loss of those tribes that migrated westward was the most fatal and irreparable blow to Dongfang Khan. Even if he wanted to support a khan without power, he would not choose Ashina Erivo.

This is an iron-clad rule in the Turkic power struggle, and no one can break it.

So, what does this guy want to do when Ashina Eliver appears at the Little League meeting?

The Little League, as its name suggests, first appeared because of the Turkic Khan's hobby of hunting. At the end of autumn, he always led the Yazhang nobles to go hunting and discuss some tribal affairs during the banquet.

As time went by, the name of the Xiaomenghui also appeared.

It was almost the self-entertainment of the nobles of the Turkic royal court.

But don’t underestimate its role. Young nobles who want to get close to the Khan and be appreciated by the Khan will have plenty of opportunities to show off their bravery and wisdom at the Little Alliance Meeting.

Many people say that the reason why Khan was able to take over the position of Khan that year was because he refused to shoot a doe with her cubs to death at a small league meeting, and was praised by Qimin Khan.

He is the most kind among his sons.

Regardless of whether it is true or not, this shows the importance of small alliances.

Similarly, the importance that the Turkic nobles in the royal court attach to the Little League Meeting also stems from the matters discussed at the Little League Meeting.

Many important decisions are made at the Little League Meeting. Those who can attend the meeting are undoubtedly the great nobles among the Turks. They will report the harvest of the year to the Khan at the Little League Meeting.

, in order to get a reward.

The ownership of some important Turkic positions has increasingly become the focus of the Small League.

From this point of view, it is clear that compared to the grand grassland alliance meeting, the small alliance meeting is much more casual, but it is once a year, never interrupted, and directly becomes the prelude to the grassland alliance meeting.

Therefore, the Little League Meeting is more like a very well-organized court meeting among the grassland tribes.

Now, the upcoming Little League meeting will no longer include entertainment such as hunting, singing and dancing. It will, to a large extent, decide who will be the Khan.

Ashina Biji looked at the other party suspiciously. He didn't know what would happen in the end once Ashina Eliver appeared on such an occasion and he was still full of hope.

Is this betrayal or betrayal?

In fact, betrayal is not important, only what you can get.

Although the word loyalty always appears in the mouths of nobles, the more noble a person is, the less interested he is in this word. Otherwise, why would they want to get married?

In fact, like many precious qualities, it is more like being used to set off people's evil deeds. It is just a standard, and human nature, in front of these words, is like running water, always moving downwards.

Just like Ashina Biji, he only thought about it for a moment before replying: "I will try my best to fulfill Ketun's wish, but"

The woman smiled and did not rub salt into Ashina Biji's wounds. Instead, she turned around and opened the door. "Compared with this trivial matter, Ke Dun hopes to gain the loyalty of Ak Nannan."

Ashina Biji didn't think about it at all this time. Looking at the open door, she beat her chest vigorously, "Kedun's wisdom shines like the stars in the sky, and her kind heart is enough to accommodate the whole world."

Grassland, please tell Ketun that the humble Ashina Biji is willing to herd sheep and kill enemies for her."

"Then, Master of the southern part of Acre, you can sort yourself out and persuade Turli Khan again. Please remember what you said today and your situation today. My brother, you will not be lucky.

Always favoring those who give up their loyalty easily."

The woman then walked out.

Ashina Biji didn't pay attention to the sarcasm and advice at all. His heart was completely occupied by ecstasy.

He is still alive and will take back his own power. The feeling of surviving the disaster leaves no room for anger at all.

He almost crawled to the door of the house, looked outside and squinted his eyes, and then yelled, "Come here, bring water in quickly, I want to take a bath, and I also need new clothes.

new boots”

Well, those Sui people in the south definitely did not have such a strong recovery ability, and they would not have such an efficiency. The people in the Turkic Royal Court are completely worthy of pride in this regard.

In early August, before the winter snow came, the people in Dali City became even more nervous. Messengers came and went on the grassland, and the entire Turkic gaze was focused on their royal court.

There was a huge power vacuum in the east, and the power of the Turkic Khanate in the west was shrinking rapidly.

If all this cannot end quickly, just like the three conquests of Goguryeo by Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, it will definitely have a catastrophic chain reaction.

Many people understand this, and the alliance in Dali City is under preparation.

No one knows how many conspiracies are being born and how many tricks are being carried out. Alliances and betrayals are vividly demonstrated in this power struggle.

At this moment, a group of people slowly entered the heavily guarded city of Dali.

The leader is a middle-aged man with a majestic appearance and dignity. He is not a Turk. His name is Dugu Huaien, a descendant of Xianbei.

His status is so noble and illustrious that few people in the world can match him.

Because his surname is Dugu, he comes from the Dugu family, one of the top families in Kansai.

In the past few decades, almost since the founding of the Western Wei Dynasty, the Dugu family has embarked on a glorious path from a military general to a noble family.

Starting from his grandfather Dugu Xin, the descendants of the Dugu family have been extremely noble since birth, almost like royalty.

There is no doubt that in the past few decades, the Dugu family has been the most outstanding among the clans in Guanxi. The dynasty has changed several times, and even the sudden death of Dugu Xin has not affected the wealth and prosperity of the Dugu family.

And Dugu Huaien inherited this honor.

Almost as soon as he was born, he was taken to the Sui Palace by his aunt, Queen Wenxing, to be raised and taught. Compared with the prince, except that he had no right to inherit the throne, he was actually the same.

Li Yuan replaced the Tang Dynasty with the Sui Dynasty, and Dugu Huaien also suffered no loss, because he had another aunt, Yu Ze, Queen Yuanzhen, who was protecting him.

In fact, after saying so much, it becomes relatively clear.

Up to now, he had just resigned from the Chang'an Order and took over as Minister of the Ministry of Industry, but he did not have much talent.

Otherwise, given his family background, his close blood relationship with the Li family, and Li Yuan's emphasis on family status, how could he be just a small Chang'an order at the beginning?

No, after he did a little bit to satisfy Li Yuan, he was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Industry. In fact, many officials praised him for his strict law enforcement, but that was all nonsense. Considering his family background, no one had ever offended him.

You dare to say anything.

It would definitely take a lot of effort to ask others to do things in Chang'an, and I don't know how many people would be offended, but things are going smoothly here in Dugu Huai'en, but judging from the evaluation, it can only be said that the work is satisfactory.

It is conceivable that in fact, this is also a prodigal, a good man who rests on his laurels. Otherwise, all the Dugu family's spiritual energy has been used up by Dugu Xin's three daughters.

The descendants of the Dugu family are really not very successful. After three queens, the family has been in decline many times. You can imagine how fast this decline has gone.

At this moment, Dugu Huaien, who came to Dali City after a long journey, was also in a very bad mood.

This journey was not easy. I entered the Turks from Yulin. Not only was I frightened all the way, but I also took many long detours before finally arriving at the Turks' Royal Court.

How could he, who has been delicate and expensive since he was a child, have ever suffered like this?

In his opinion, the reason why he took this trip was very simple: he had offended his cousin Li Dalang.

At that time, he could not even lay an eye on his cousin, but many years later, Li Yuan became the emperor, and he was just a small Chang'an order under him.

This sense of dislocation made Dugu Huaien very uncomfortable. He always thought that if his aunt was alive, Li Yuan would not dare to do this to him.

In fact, Li Yuan was really good to him, and soon he was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Industry.

He took a breath here for a while, but he was not satisfied and asked for orders to serve in front of the army.

Li Yuan was very happy. The only people he could trust, apart from the old subordinates who stayed in the mansion in Taiyuan, were actually those who were related to him by blood.

He was also happy to see that Dugu Huaien had this ambition, and he did not find an opponent that was too difficult for Dugu Huaien. Li Yuan was not stupid after all, and he wondered if his cousin had the talent to lead an army.

So, I found a weakling to give Dugu Huaien a try.

This opponent is Yao Junsu. This man is an old general of the Sui Dynasty. He served as a guard for Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty. He followed Qu Tutong to guard the east of the river. Qu Tutong was defeated and surrendered to the Tang Dynasty. This man was no less loyal than Wang Ren.

Gong and others occupied Puzhou in the east of Hedong and guarded the isolated city until now.

Li Yuan, who had few soldiers and only occupied an isolated city, had strong enemies outside, and wars everywhere, had no time to pay attention to this lonely minister of the Sui Dynasty who would soon commit suicide.

So, he left Puzhou to Dugu Huaien to practice.

What Li Yuan didn't expect was that this prodigal son not only failed to capture Puzhou, but also made the soldiers complain. With such a family background, you can still get a bad reputation for being greedy and stingy, so you are considered capable.

So Li Yuan summoned Dugu Huaien back to court and scolded him a few times. He didn't take it seriously, but Dugu Huaien couldn't bear it anymore and actually retorted.

My aunt is your mother, how could you do this to me?

Within a few days, Dugu Huaien was sent to the north as an envoy to the Turks.

Monthly tickets are pending. Monthly tickets are pending.
