Tang Jian and Xiao Han were led all the way to his big tent. Before a few people could enter, Kang Sumi impatiently shouted inside.
In the big tent, a rather pleasant female voice vaguely responded.
Following Xiao Han and Tang Jian, as soon as they walked into the tent, they saw several young women coming out from behind a curtain in the tent, holding on to a middle-aged woman.
In fact, it would be better to say that they are supporting!
Several young Turkic women, some grabbing the woman's arms, some grabbing her clothes, walked out from behind the curtain step by step, as if they were afraid that she would run away!
"Is this Princess Yicheng?" Seeing the woman coming out, Xiao Han, who was drunk, blinked his bleary eyes and looked her up and down.
The woman in front of her looks to be about fifty years old. She is wearing a very simple maid's dress, but her face that has been baptized by years of wind and frost seems to have an innate nobility!
Xiao Han even clearly felt that under her special noble temperament, the maid's clothes were selectively ignored, as if she was born to be like this, even if she was dressed in rags
No shirt can hide her natural nobility!
"She is Princess Yicheng of the former Sui Dynasty!" Looking at this woman who was still alive but still as arrogant as a white swan, Tang Jian leaned into Xiao Han's ear and explained softly to him.
He had been coming to Jieli for several days and had seen Princess Yicheng more than once or twice, so he naturally recognized her!
"Tang Jian!"
On the other side, hearing a somewhat familiar voice, Princess Yicheng, who held her head high, suddenly lowered her head and looked towards the location where the sound came from.
When she saw clearly that the person standing in front of her was indeed Tang Jian, her arrogant red and phoenix eyes were immediately filled with anger!
"How come you didn't die in the fire!" Staring at Tang Jian, Princess Yicheng almost broke her teeth!
She really didn't expect that Tang Jian, who caused Jie Li to flee in haste and made her a prisoner, was not dead!
"snort!"
Facing Princess Yicheng who was about to burst out with anger, Tang Jian just snorted and retorted sarcastically: "Jie Li is not dead yet, how dare I die first! Princess, how could you be reduced to wearing the clothes of a maid?
Hiding here?"
"Jieli is the eagle on the grassland! He will soar in the nine heavens, and then kill you usurper and sycophants one by one!" A trace of blood seeped out of the corner of Princess Yicheng's mouth, but her eyes were still fixed on Tang Jian:
"It's a pity that the fire didn't burn you to death! What a pity, what a pity!"
Princess Yicheng said three regrets in a row, and the corner of Tang Jian's mouth couldn't stop twitching. Maybe anyone who was cursed in front of him like this wouldn't look any better!
"Tang Gong, calm down, calm down!" On the side, Xiao Han could hardly speak when he saw Tang Jian was angry, so he hurriedly walked forward and patted his back.
However, maybe because he drank too much, Xiao Han didn't strike lightly or harshly. With a few slaps, he almost knocked out the angry Tang Jian!
"Stop shooting! If I shoot again, I'll be slapped to death!" He waved his hand to block Xiao Han's "bear paw", and Tang Jian bared his teeth and cursed.
After being scolded, Xiao Han retracted his hand angrily and stood there muttering something unknown, but his actions just now caught the attention of Princess Yicheng.
"Who are you?" Princess Yicheng asked unceremoniously as she looked at Xiao Han with a frown.
"I?"
Xiao Han was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He had never seen Princess Yicheng before, but he had heard about this Sui Princess from others!
In his memory, he vaguely remembered that the princess who married into the grassland once used a trick to deceive the Turks who invaded the Central Plains into rushing back to the grassland, saving Yang Guang from the danger of destroying his country!
It is precisely because of this incident that Xiao Han's impression of Princess Yicheng is definitely not bad!
"Boy Xiao Han, I have met Princess Yicheng." Resisting his drunkenness, Xiao Han respectfully bowed his hands to the woman.
"Xiao Han? Xiao Han, Sanyuan County?"
But what Xiao Han didn't expect was that the princess, who had lived in the grassland for nearly thirty years, had heard of his name and even knew his title.
"It's the boy..." Xiao Han smiled in surprise, and held his hand towards the woman again.
For this poor woman who resolutely sacrificed her lifelong happiness for the sake of the common people and the Central Plains, Xiao Han felt that he had reason to give her enough respect!
However, what Xiao Han didn't expect was that Princess Yicheng had no fluctuation in her respect for him. She just glanced at him in disgust, and then gently squeezed out a few words from her lips: "You traitor and traitor!
How qualified are you to meet this princess!"
"Well……"
Upon hearing these words, Xiao Han's expression immediately froze, but Kang Sumi behind him almost laughed out loud.
He had just suffered a lot from Xiao Han's arrogance, and seeing him deflated now, he finally felt balanced!
Tang Jian was still aggrieved. When he saw this, he sneered and said to Xiao Han: "Xiao Hou, you don't have to be so polite to her! Her loyalty is not to the Central Plains, but to the former Sui Dynasty!
You don’t know! After Yang Guang’s death, this woman began to hate our Tang Dynasty! Since the Wude period, she has incited the Turks to attack and plunder us countless times!
Three years ago, the Turks launched a large-scale attack on the Central Plains, and it was also because of her instigation! Your Majesty has ordered this time that if she is caught, her head must be brought back to Chang'an!"
"Take her head back to Chang'an?"
Hearing what Tang Jian said, Xiao Han immediately took a breath! He really didn't expect such harsh words to come out of Xiao Lizi's mouth! Especially when the other party was a woman!
"Is it because of her status as a former Sui princess?" Xiao Han thought to himself, but quickly rejected the idea.
When Li Jing captured Dingxiang City, he also captured Yang Guang's queen, Queen Xiao!
But according to others, Li Jing was very respectful to Empress Xiao at that time, and he prepared a fast horse overnight and sent a dedicated person to serve her, and sent her back to Chang'an.
Since Xiao Lizi was so tolerant to Yang Guang's queen, why did he insist on putting to death Princess Yicheng, who had been kind to countless people?
Xiao Han was a little confused, but soon he thought of what Tang Jian said later: She was the one who instigated Jie Li to invade the Central Plains three years ago!
Three years ago? Massive invasion?
Putting these two words together, a thunderbolt suddenly flashed in Xiao Han's mind!
He seemed to understand why Li Shimin hated her so much!
Three years ago the Turks invaded massively!
Except for the time in the first year of Zhenguan, when Li Shimin was forced to leave the city and form an alliance under the city walls on the Weishui River! There was no one else who could compete with him!
And that time, it was precisely the alliance that Li Shimin regarded as a lifelong shame!
