It’s not that the Turkic people don’t pay attention to the inheritance from father to son, and from son to grandson. It’s just that the last few generations of khans have passed away in their prime years, and their heirs are too young, which has led to the succession of brother to brother for several generations.
.
When Jieli Khan succeeded to the throne, the situation changed. On the one hand, Jieli Khan was the youngest among the brothers of his generation and had no younger brothers. On the other hand, his son Yugushe had grown up.
But after Yugushe was captured alive by Li Shan for the second time, the situation changed again. Yugushe's reputation was completely lost. Even if Jieli Khan supported him, it was no longer possible to succeed to the throne.
Once Jieli Khan passes away, his successors can only be his nephews. The most powerful among them are Tuli Khan and Ashina Sheer. This is the relationship between Ashina Sheer and Ashina Sheer.
The fundamental reason for Jieli Khan's loyalty was also the reason why Ashina Sheer immediately felt that Yugushe's death was a bit strange, but did not delve into it... He was the beneficiary of this incident.
But when Ashina Sheer came back to his senses and felt that there was something wrong with Yugushe's death, he quickly figured out that Jieli Khan probably had a son, so he would ruthlessly abandon Yugushe.
This son of Gosheth is no longer useful.
When Ashina Sheer, who had figured out all this, returned to Wuyuan County and found rumors spread by Li Shan everywhere, he knew that Jieli Khan would not allow him to succeed to the throne.
Jieli Khan is only in his thirties this year. He has enough time to wait for his young son to grow up. How could he give up his young son and choose Ashina Sheer, let alone the rumors about Li Shanna spreading throughout Wuyuan County.
To put it bluntly, Li Shan released that rumor, which caused Jieli Khan to distrust Ashina Sheer, and also caused Ashina Sheer to not trust Jieli Khan...especially when the latter discovered this
As long as the child exists.
"Die Luo Zhi." A confidant on the side whispered: "I have asked, after I was born the year before last, I fell ill."
Tuli Khan withdraws his troops... This thought flashed through his mind. Jieli Khan suddenly remembered something, took a few steps quickly, and took off the hanging long knife.
Ashina She'er stopped talking nonsense and slashed with a long sword. Although Jieli Khan was also quite brave, how could he compare with his nephew? He fell in a pool of blood in just two or three rounds.
But before he could turn around, he heard the sound of the heavy curtain being opened.
Ashina Sheer nodded. It was probably because of that illness that Jieli Khan had to redeem Yugushe. After his youngest son recovered, Jieli Khan gave up Yugushe.
Standing up slowly, Jieli Khan paced back and forth a few steps. Now he was reluctant to walk. Last year in the battle of Guji Town, Li Shan used a bed crossbow to sneak attack and fractured Jieli Khan's calf. Although it is healed now,
My calves and knees often ache, and I even have a limp when I walk.
"Kehe Dun..." Jieli Khan understood that with Kehe Dun as his wife, his nephew could easily kill him. What's more, after last year's defeat, he had to fight under the Yang family in Yunzhou.
Select manpower to replenish your troops.
"Let's do it."
In a tent only three or four miles away from here, Jieli Khan was lying on the couch tiredly. The Khan, who was only in his thirties, had dull eyes and the wrinkles between his eyebrows looked like those in his fifties.
An old man is like an old lone wolf.
"Are you all ready?"
"Last year we suffered a disastrous defeat in the Suishu War, there was heavy snow in winter, and this year there is famine, but my uncle still wants to raise his troops to the east. The people of the tribe have been dissatisfied for a long time." Ashina She'er drew out his saber and sneered: "I have been talking about wanting to behead Li Huairen, but now that guy is going to do it.
In Longzhou, my uncle was too afraid to send troops."
"Abduce the throne and give way to others... You are a Turk, not a Han..." Jieli Khan gasped: "Impossible, how did you get in..."
At this time, there was a noise outside. Jieli Khan frowned and cursed a few words in a low voice but ignored it. However, he soon realized it because no guards came in to report.
Obviously, Ashina Sheer is her next husband.
He was indeed a lone wolf. After the battle at Cangtou River, Jieli Khan clearly felt that his tribe was rejecting him, which forced him to rely heavily on foreigners... This made his tribe even more dissatisfied.
Jieli Khan was thinking in his mind whether he should send an envoy to Daizhou to send more good horses in exchange for some salt and grain. As long as he could survive this year, he would be able to recover next year.
For this reason, Kehe Dun requested to send troops several times, but Jieli Khan did not agree, even though Tuli Khan had withdrawn his troops to the east.
"Just for these?" Jieli Khan only thinks it's ridiculous. Just for these, you have to raise your sword. "Yugushe is dead, but he will be able to do it one day..."
"yes."
This famous princess in history has only one image left in the history books, that of loyalty...to the royal family of the Sui Dynasty.
Although Wang Zhangbing suffered heavy casualties in several battles last year, Jieli Khan quickly added that he did not believe that his nephew, who was already afraid of him, could pass through many obstacles and kill him so easily.
come in front of yourself.
This is naturally the famous Princess Yicheng of the Sui Dynasty, who first married Shibi Khan, then Chuluo Khan, and then Jieli Khan... She was married three times in history, and not just in this life.
He refused Liang Division's request to send troops three times in a row. On the one hand, it was because of internal instability. On the other hand, the three disastrous defeats also made Jieli Khan fear that young man deep in his heart.
Princess Yicheng sneered and said: "Kehe Dun is still Kehe Dun, it's just that the Great Khan is not you."
Jieli Khan turned around slowly and was not surprised to see Ashina She'er with a cold face, "She'er is back..."
However, in the past year, Jieli Khan has not thought much about this person. The most important thing now is to maintain his position. Although he keeps saying that he will behead Li Huairen one day...but Jieli Khan no longer has such extravagant hopes.
Already.
Silently waiting for Jieli Khan to die, Ashina Sheer turned around and said solemnly: "Tomorrow we will discuss peace with Tuli Khan and send troops to Lingzhou within three days."
For the King of Handan of the Tang Dynasty, Jieli Khan both hated and feared him. Every detail of the three battles last year often appeared in his dreams, including the sudden crossbows and the tribesmen who broke into the city but were driven away.
, the figure of Duan Zhan riding alone into the battle would flash in his mind from time to time.
Jieli Khan's expression changed, and his cheeks and neck were trembling. Originally, he was planning to announce that he would have another heir this year, but Ashina Sheer was released and the rumor made him change his mind...
I didn't expect that such a secret would be discovered by the other party.
The key is not that Yu Gushe is already a waste, nor is it that this child will definitely not die in infancy, but that Jieli Khan will have another child more than ten years later. If he can have one, he can have ten or eight.
At this time, the curtain was opened again, and a woman in Hanfu came in. She was about thirty years old, with a beautiful and dignified appearance. She scolded: "Liang Shidu occupied the land of three states, and the Tang army launched a massive counterattack. Since they dare not go south,
, of course you have to choose someone who is brave enough!"
Princess Yicheng nodded with satisfaction, "If we can help Liang Shidu gain a foothold in Guannai Road, he can threaten Chang'an at any time. Li Yuan is timid and may move the capital to Luoyang, and all the areas north of the Yellow River will be used as horse farms."
"Two Yehu, three special services, and six Burkes will either die or surrender." Ashina Sheer interrupted: "Uncle has no ambitions anymore, so he should abdicate in favor of talents."
Ashina She'er interrupted impatiently: "I just went to see the Douluo branch."
When Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty was trapped in Yanmen, it was Princess Yicheng who rescued him. After the fall of the Sui Dynasty, Princess Yicheng did her best to take in the children of the clan and tried her best to destroy Li Tang.
What makes Princess Yicheng so persistent is the same hatred, hatred for Li Yuan, hatred for Li Tang... Specifically speaking, there is also hatred for Li Shan.
After the Battle of Cangtou River last year, Li Shanzong sacked Zuoyun County, and Princess Yicheng's biological brother Yang Shanjing died in Zuoyun County.
The same hatred made Princess Yicheng and Ashina Sheer hit it off.
