"There is no need to be so sad. If you hold the imperial power, you will surely bear the weight of the world.
Children and grandchildren enjoy all the glory and splendor in the world when they are born, and they are the first to bear the brunt of the fall of imperial power. This has been the case in all dynasties, and it is no wonder that others have done so.
My aunt is now the leader of the Turks, so she shouldn't not understand this truth. Doesn't the descendants of Shibi Khan make my aunt feel uncomfortable? If there is a chance, wouldn't it be refreshing to get rid of them as soon as possible? I believe my aunt will not do it then.
Have mercy?"
Ashina Yang Huan wiped her eyes. Speaking of this, it did make her feel a little closer, and she could say some words that were difficult to say.
"You should think about it openly. I'm afraid it's not because of your life experience, but you have resentment in your heart. You wish they were all killed?"
This was a bit heart-wrenching and difficult to answer. Li Po looked at Ashina and Yang Huan's face. He still had a sad look on his face, and there was only some complaint in his tone, which seemed to have no other meaning.
But Li Po thought to himself that this was probably her truest thought.
The children of the Yang family who are living outside the country have changed their surnames and suffered a lot. I am afraid they have no feelings for the Yang family and may even have resentment. So what is the meaning of calling out their aunt?
Li Po shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "Yang Guang is dead, so what is there to be resentful about? Isn't the Hongnong Yang family still doing well now? But Li Yuan and others are very afraid of them and have killed many people. I am equal to Li Yuan, so why not?"
It can be considered as avenging them, aunt, please don't blame me wrongly."
Ashina Yang Huan snorted and said: "Hongnong Yang family? What does that have to do with us? Our branch is barely a branch of the Hongnong Yang family, and our descendant is Han Taiwei Yang Zhen.
We started in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, and had no contact with Hongnong for many years. It was not until my grandfather's generation that we returned to Kansai, and the Yang family of Hongnong also climbed up.
At that time, my grandfather was living in Shandong and was in great embarrassment. No one from the Hongnong Yang family came to help him...
Let’s look at what those people did during the chaos. The first to rebel was Yang Xuangan. After raising him for so long, he became a white-eyed wolf..."
Li Po slapped his tongue. This example was a bit too much. He didn’t blame Ashina and Yang Huan for complaining. The relationship between the Hongnong Yang family and Yang Jian’s lineage was indeed not very big. To be more serious, Hongnong Yang’s family has been
The family has often been influenced by Yang Zhong and his son.
However, the Yang family was so favored, and it was Yang Xuangan who took the lead in raising the banner of anti-Sui Dynasty. This is a bit unjustifiable.
At a small scale, it is ungrateful; at a larger scale, it is because the Hongnong Yang family wanted to usurp the country and get rich. However, this behavior was mixed with the chaos of the late Sui Dynasty, but it gave itself a coat that could reasonably hide its ugly appearance.
That’s all.
Moreover, Yang Xuangan's rebellion was not just a rebellion at that time. He was the first to kick off the aristocratic forces joining the anti-Sui ranks. From this time on, the peasant uprising gradually began to evolve into a war between feudal princes.
……………………
Naturally, Li Po would not discuss this with Ashina Yang Huan. What Ashina Yang Huan was questioning was obviously not about the Hongnong Yang family, but that Li Po had not restored his original surname after he gained the country.
Even after inheriting the title of Li Yuan, he really doesn't look like he cares about the Yang family, but his words are not that clear.
Li Po actually didn't want to get too entangled with this issue, so he restrained his expression and said seriously: "It's really admirable that my aunt cares so much about her family despite being in Turks.
Therefore, I can give my aunt a promise. As long as my aunt is in the Turks, the Tang Dynasty and the Turks will be as friendly and friendly as possible. I will not send anyone to lead troops to invade, and I also ask the Turks not to come and disturb us.
If my aunt needs help, I am not responsible for it. I think my aunt also wants to do this, so I will thank you here first... If there is a big disaster, my aunt can come to Chang'an for a while, and my nephew will definitely be my aunt.
Take it out.
Auntie, do you think this is good? Do you believe my promise?"
Ashina Yang Huan looked over. She proposed an alliance with the Tang Dynasty. She actually wanted such a promise, but if she got it easily, it would make her feel uneasy.
Seeing that she was silent for a long time, Li Po smiled and said again: "I have made an appointment with someone to make friends and calm down the princes. No matter how her father, brother and I fight, I can keep her safe for the rest of her life.
Fortunately, after several years, there was no move to break the promise...
After all, we are different from the Turks. The so-called real men keep their word and make a promise, so my aunt can trust me.
The matter between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks is a conflict between the two countries. It is hard to say anything. My aunt and I are discussing the relationship between relatives, but it is harmless, isn't it? "
Ashina Yang Huan seemed to have finally made a decision. He smiled softly and his brows moved. Apart from the red eyes, there was no hint of sadness.
She slowly stood up and walked to Li Po. Li Po stood up and thought to himself, you are not going to give me a hug, are you? Although this body does seem to belong to your Yang family now, we are really not Yang Liang.
That unfortunate son...
Just as he was thinking indifferently, Ashina Yang Huan had already raised his arm and said: "I hope you will not forget what I said today. I will believe you once. I hope we can separate the north and the south and never invade each other."
Li Po understood what she meant and raised his palm...
With a snap, they clap their hands together to form an alliance. The form is a bit simple, but it represents their mutual recognition and the oath they have made.
In this conversation, Li Po obviously took the initiative, and Ashina Yang Huan did not confront him tit-for-tat like before, and even showed some of his weaknesses.
After sitting down again, Li Po smacked the taste. Just like Ashina and Yang Huan before, he always felt that something was wrong. It took him a long time to finally understand. Could this be the legendary secret skill of using softness to overcome strength?
It seems that I have to be more careful when meeting powerful women in the future...
………………
After that, the conversation between the two became more relaxed and no longer involved any major issues.
Originally, Ashina Yang Huan was planning to publicize the Tang Emperor's life experience to the Turks after the alliance. It was okay to reestablish a new dynasty with Emperor Wen's bloodline, but what does the surname Li mean?
Even if you change your surname, she will let people in the north and south know that the world still belongs to their Yang family.
As for what kind of trouble this will cause to Li Po, that is Li Po's own business. If chaos breaks out in the south, it would be better for Li Po to flee to the Turks.
Now it seems that there is no need to worry. There are still some people in the Turkic royal court who are not honest, and some nobles of the tribe are also whispering in the dark. If she can get support from the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, she will feel more at ease in the position of Turkic Khan.
.
This is undoubtedly an inherent thinking pattern left behind by her experience and life experience. When she encounters difficulties, she always subconsciously wants to seek help from outsiders.
This was especially obvious when fighting for the position of Khan. If he were a descendant of Ashina, he would definitely not seek help from the Sui generals at such a moment.
………………
After getting Li Po's promise, although she didn't know what the future would be like, she was in a good mood now. She didn't want to talk about the troubled affairs between the two countries anymore, so she asked about Li Po's experience first.
"You were only seven or eight years old when you came to the north, right? You should have come to the royal court to look for me. Why did you stop on the way? But what happened?"
Li Poxin said that Yang Liang, that idiot, wanted to send his son to the Turks to find refuge in the Turks. He must have been kicked in the head by a donkey.
After Yang Guang became emperor, wouldn't he be able to get his nephew if he asked for it from the Turks? Qimin Khan and Ashina Yang Huan wouldn't dare not refuse it, right?
He first toasted Ashina and Yang Huan. He was very good at making up lies, but he still had to sort them out carefully before telling them to avoid missing anything.
"I was young at the time, so I don't remember clearly. The situation must have been urgent, and someone was escorting me as I hurried northward. After passing the Great Wall, it was already winter when I arrived in Dingxiang County.
It was so cold that I was freezing. It seemed like someone was chasing me and fighting all the way. Someone stuffed me into the snow. When I woke up again, I had already arrived at a village under the jurisdiction of Dingxiang County Sheriff.
In the military camp.
A few old soldiers took me in, and I lived there. After a few years of peaceful life, when people came to ask me where I came from, I said I didn't remember. After Yang Guang became emperor, I decided not to return to the Central Plains.
thoughts.
I just didn’t expect that the grassland would be unstable, the border villages were in decline, and the defenders were scattered. In the end, I was forced to go south and return to the Sui Dynasty... It’s really unpredictable..."
Ashina Yang Huan also sighed, and then asked: "Then Princess Fufeng..."
You are investigating the household registration. After all these years, it is Yu Chigong, the black guy, and the person in front of you who has the most sense to ask questions. Even Li Bi just clicked on it. When he didn't want to talk, he didn't dare to ask further questions.
Li Po was slandering in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. In fact, it was superfluous to ask about these things. Didn't he just make up what happened back then? Nothing could be changed.
But this was a good topic for him and Ashina Yang Huan, and he was not going to take it lightly.
"My aunt is talking about Li Chun... She was picked up by me on the way when I was going south. Her real surname is Qing, but she later took my surname. By the way, the military leader who took me in was called Li Chengshun, from the Fubing family in Fufeng, Guanxi.
So after I ascended the throne, I made her the princess of Fufeng County. There are no people there, and now no one dares to investigate carefully, so I just let it go."
Ashina Yang Huan nodded, feeling extremely satisfied. These experiences had a beginning and an end, and it didn't look like they were made up. It was just a mistake, and he did not borrow Yang's power.
Moreover, Yang Guang was stupid and unprincipled, causing chaos in the world. It is not surprising that he was unwilling to restore his surname. People in the south rose up in rebellion against the Sui Dynasty, and wasn't it the Yang family who rebelled?
The fact that he is still flying the flag of the sun, moon and stars shows that he still has some care in his heart, which is good.
After a few more sighs, the two found a common topic, which was to attack Yang Guang. Yang Guang, an unlucky man who had betrayed his relatives and alienated everyone, had a bad reputation in the world, and no one could say anything good about him.
Only some people in the later years will look at his life "fairly" because they have not been poisoned by him.
