Chapter 292 Friends and Enemies

Yelu Jue smiled bitterly, lowered his voice and said, "This is really a last resort. We suspect that some of you, Tang Dynasty, do not want us to submit to the Tang Dynasty again, and the Turkic Khan also ambushed inside your Tang Dynasty. If this news reaches the ears of the Turkic Khan, my husband will die.pbtt."

"Re-supply? Did your Khitan belong to our Tang Dynasty before?" Lu Jinping raised his eyebrows and asked faintly.

He really didn't know about this, because he only knew that there was such a Khitan tribe, which was later the Jin Dynasty, but he didn't know much about the grudges between the Khitan tribe and the Tang Dynasty, especially the relationship between the two parties during the specific period of time.

In fact, before this, the Khitan and the Tang Dynasty were also good and bad, and they lived back and forth between the Turks and the Tang Dynasty. Before this, the Khitan surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, but later rebelled against the Tang Dynasty and joined forces with the Turks to quell the rebellion. Of course, the Tang Dynasty came to a great price for the return of the Tang Dynasty, giving the Turks a generous reward. After quelling the rebellion, the Khitan actually turned to the Turks, surrendered to the Turks, and deviated from the Tang Dynasty. However, the Khitan did not have any good results and was extremely cruelly enslaved by the Turks.

Lu Jinping didn't understand this history, so he asked this question. However, Yelu Jue's ears were full of sarcasm, as if he was ridiculing the Khitan fence-bearing sides. Yelu Jue's face turned red, his face was ashamed, and he bit his red lips lightly, and said with a smile: "It's our fault, so my husband Khan asked me to smile and apologize to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, hoping to surrender again to the Tang Dynasty and never betray for generations."

Lu Jinping nodded and said, "Of course it's the best, but I'm still a little confused. Since you are worried that someone in the court might disclose the news that you are going to surrender to the Tang Dynasty, it is not good for your husband, then why don't you worry that the governor or others in Lingzhou Prefecture will tell the Turkic Khan after finding out the news, then isn't your husband equally dangerous?"

"This is what my husband told me. He said that the governor of Lingzhou is very loyal and loyal to the Tang Dynasty. He will not do anything that goes against the interests of the Tang Dynasty, because our Khitan surrender to the Tang Dynasty has all benefits but no harm to both sides, and we can join forces to deal with the Turks. That's why I came to the governor, but I didn't expect to meet Prince Zhong. It's really God helping me."

Lu Jinping smiled and said, "Then aren't you worried that I will leak the news to the Turkic Khan?"

Yelu Jue was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "Your Majesty is afraid that you won't do such a terrifying thing? You are the prince and the emperor's brother. You should know that we look forward to surrendering to the Tang Dynasty.pbtt. How great is it for both sides? At least you don't have to worry about the threat from our Khitan, but concentrate on dealing with the Turks or Tubo. Isn't this a good thing?"

Lu Jinping nodded, lowered his head and pondered for a while, then looked up and said, "However, I just knew what you said, and before I knew about it, I had already done another thing, that is, to decide to propose to the Turks and marry their princess. I guess the wife doesn't know about this, right?"

Lu Jinping said this and still had some measurement in his heart, because since he had decided to plead with Khan, the matter could not be concealed. Sooner or later, it would reach the Khitan Khan's ears, and of course it would also reach the Khan's wife Yelu Jue.

Since Yelu Jie said just now that the Khitan was looking forward to surrender again, it means that he had rebelled before. Instead of rebelling again when she heard this news in the future, it would be better to let her weigh the pros and cons again now. What's more, it's just Mrs. Khan's words to talk about this matter. It's unknown what they were thinking about. It's better to use this thing that cannot be concealed.

When Yelu Jue heard this, his face changed drastically and he stared at Lu Jinping in a daze. The eager gaze in his eyes had disappeared. She turned to look at the people sitting next to him. They were originally full of humility, but now, this expression turned into shock and disbelief.

For a moment, the teahouse was very quiet, but Lu Jinping was sure of their reaction. That is, they really wanted to talk about this matter. If this matter really came from the idea of ​​the Khitan Khan, it would be a good thing for the Tang Dynasty.

So Lu Jinping smiled and said, "Madam, don't worry, our Tang Dynasty has never been a military man. We love peace. Whether we are with the Khitan or the Turks, we don't want to meet each other. Therefore, there is no problem with the Khitan surrendering to the Tang Dynasty. I believe the Turks will not stop it. If he really does this, we will take some way to let her dispel this idea. After all, if Khan agrees to my marriage with his Turkic princess, I will become Khan's brother-in-law. Don't look at the monks and Buddha's faces."

Yelu Jue smiled, smiling a little reluctantly, and whispered: "I don't know how much of what Prince Zhong said these words come from the heart? However, every word I said is all in my heart. We surrender to the Tang Dynasty to unite the Tang Dynasty to deal with the Turks. This will not only allow us Khitan to escape the enslavement of the Turks, but also regain the vast territory occupied by the Turks."

Lu Jinping thought for a while and said, "Let's do this, as I personally welcome it. The Khitan surrendered to the Tang Dynasty again, but this matter is of great importance. I don't count. Can I ask my wife to divorce me? I send her back to the capital and ask the emperor to decide. I wonder what the wife wants? You are worried about the Turks doing in the court. Don't worry, the letter I sent out will definitely be opened by those who can trust me, and the news will definitely not be disclosed."

Yelu Jue thought about it and exchanged glances with those people. Seeing that they all nodded slightly, he turned around and looked at Lu Jinping and said, "Okay, I'll write it right away. Although the prince has promised that the news will not be leaked, I still want to give a sincere reminder that this matter is related to the safety of my husband's life and we must never leak the news."

Lu Jinping nodded and said, "I promise."

Lu Jinping has already decided to send this letter to Li Longji directly. Longji is a wise king, at least in the early stage. He must know the interests of this matter and will not let the news be leaked.

At that moment, Yelu Jue asked the people who followed him to take out paper and pen from his bags, spread it on the table, and picked up the pen and wrote a letter. Then, he stamped the seal with a jade seal and handed it to Lu Jinping for a review.

After reading it, Lu Jinping expressed his desire to surrender again to the Tang Dynasty and emphasized that he hoped not to leak the news. Before the Khitan Khan returned to the Khitan safely. Lu Jinping nodded and signaled that the letter could be used.

So Yelu Jue took the letter back, folded it, put it in a wax seal, and then handed it to Lu Jinping with both hands.

Lu Jinping took it and said, "Madam, should you wait for the news or go back directly?"

Yelu Jue thought for a while and said, "I believe that the prince will definitely send this letter to the emperor as quickly as possible, and I hope to tell the emperor to reply as soon as possible. If this is the case, I will wait here. If your emperor sends the reply to the Khitan, I don't know whose hands it will fall into. I'll wait here and wait for the prince to hand over the emperor's reply to me."

"What are your plans after giving it to you?"

Yelu Jue hesitated for a moment, looked around and lowered his voice, "If the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty allows us to surrender again to the Tang Dynasty, then I will immediately send a letter to tell my husband to find an opportunity to leave the battlefield and return to the Khitan. If the Tang Dynasty and the Turks are married, we hope that the Tang Dynasty can send troops to station the Khitan to prevent the Turks from revengeing the Khitan."

Lu Jinping smiled and thought to himself that this is not a military military base? This is how the modern United States does it. It has a strong national strength and protects its interests. Of course, there is no problem. He nodded at the moment: "The emperor has the final say in sending troops to Khitan to help defend against the Turks, but I will try my best to convince the emperor to do this. Don't worry, this will also be beneficial to our Tang Dynasty."

Yelu Jue bowed his fists and said, "Okay, I respect the news about the Lord. We will live in the Beilai Inn in the east of the city. If you have any news, come there to find me."

"I remember, madam, please go back first. I will come immediately if there is any news."

Yelu Jue reluctantly pulled his eyes from Lu Jinping's handsome face, turned around and wanted to go out, but after walking two steps, he stopped again, turned around and looked at him, bit his red lips gently, and said, "I have a word, please let the prince think carefully."

"Madam, please say."

"The Turkic Khan is capricious. Even if he is married to the Tang Dynasty, he would also be able to rebel. Before this, he would not fight with the Tang Dynasty and fight again and again? After all, he was the Turkic Khan, he was also the nephew of the emperor of your Tang Dynasty. With such a deep relationship, wouldn't he send troops to attack the Tang Dynasty? What if you marry a Turkic princess? For the benefit of the Turkic tribes, he would not take his sister's marriage seriously at all, so don't pay too much attention to this matter."

Lu Jinping was not sure what Yelu Jue said about the fact that the Turkic Khan had requested the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to accept him as his adopted son. This was the case of the Turkic Khan just became a member of the Wu Zetian period. In order to consolidate his status and strengthen his power, he sent an envoy to ask Wu Zetian to accept him as his adopted son. Wu Zetian immediately agreed and gave him a title.

He relied on the power of the Tang Dynasty, so that the tribal chiefs who had a different heart towards him would not disobey him, thus consolidating his status. However, after his status was consolidated, he still raised an army to attack the Tang Dynasty, and his son beat me, and the attack was unambiguous.

Although Lu Jinping does not understand this history, he knows that he will never be tired of deceitful soldiers. No matter who it is, the Turks are like this, and the Tang Dynasty in the Middle Earth is not the case. Including the Khitan, they also go back on their word and make different choices based on changes in the situation. This has nothing to do with morality, but purely for their own interests. To put it in that sentence, there is no eternal friend or eternal enemy. (To be continued.) Mobile users, please visit http://m.piaotian.net
