Chapter 286 Return to Chang'an

Gebu quickly stood up and saluted, Li Ye waved his hand and said with a smile: "Please sit down!"

Gobu and Aling are half-brothers and sisters, but they both look like their father, so Gobu and Aling have somewhat similar facial features.

This similarity made Li Ye somewhat fond of Gebu.

Li Ye got straight to the point: "Sare broke his promise to Datang and broke the rules!"

The biggest characteristic of the Geluolu people is that they particularly follow the various rules set by themselves. In fact, this is also a common characteristic of the grassland tribes. Otherwise, with so many tribes living on the grasslands, they would not be able to live in peace without following the rules.

Just like A Ling, Li Ye killed her husband and took possession of her, then she is Li Ye's woman. This is the ethics of the Geluolu people, just like the Han people who have vowed to become husband and wife.

Sarai swore an oath to the great god Ahura Mazda to be loyal to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, but in the end he broke his oath, so he should accept the severest punishment, and the Pogo tribe could not intercede for him.

Gobu said sadly: "Sare has committed a serious crime, but Geluolu, women, children, old people, weak and innocent people, please be kind to the general and let them go."

Li Ye said slowly: "A few days ago, Chief Wusule of Tuqishi came to me. He begged me to allow them to expand the pasture to the north. He actually wanted to annex Geluolu's strength, but I didn't agree to him. I gave him

You have a choice. If you dedicate Sarai’s head to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, then I will hand over the Tali Strength Department to you. You may want to merge the two into one, or establish another Tali Strength Chief.

It’s up to you to decide.”

After a pause, Li Ye said again: "This is the opportunity I give you. If you don't want it, then this opportunity will be given to Tuqi Shiren. A tribe that has lost its young and strong men and only has old, weak, women and children left cannot last long."

.”

"You can't help Tuqi!"

Gob immediately expressed his position: "If Tuqishi rises again, it will definitely be a disaster! In any case, we will definitely handle the Taqiu force properly."

Li Ye added: "The two Geluolu tribes in the Talas River have made it clear to the Suiye government that they are willing to pay taxes to the Tang Dynasty, become citizens of the Tang Dynasty, and break away from the Taqiang tribe. Please remember this.

.”

Gob nodded, "Then I will rush back immediately to report to my father, and I will definitely convey the general's original words."

Gobu bowed, said goodbye and left in a hurry. Li Ye wanted to ask about Al-Ling, but he restrained himself. His relationship with Al-Ling was far from being made public.

At this time, Cen Shen next to him smiled and said: "Will the Geluolu people of Pogo tribe agree?"

Li Ye smiled faintly and said: "If I guessed correctly, their chief is in Suiye City and asked his son to come see me. He is hiding behind the scenes. Yibohai is the traditional territory of the Geluolu people and has been for more than a hundred years.

How could they give it up to the Tuqishi people?"

"So they will definitely take Salai's head to Chang'an for pilgrimage?"

Li Ye nodded, "Definitely!"

The famous Snow Mountain Tavern in Suiye City was invested and built by the Geluolu people. Just as Li Ye expected, Nalman, the chief of Geluolu of Pogo tribe, was in the Snow Mountain Tavern at this time.

The troops were completely maimed, and almost all the young and strong men were dead. Only tens of thousands of old, weak, women and children and large fertile pastures were left. How could Nalman not be tempted? It was just that he couldn't figure out the Tang army's intentions.

Not daring to act rashly, Li Ye invited them to Broken Leaf this time. Of course Nalman had to come in person, but he hid behind the scenes and let his son show up.

In the room, Nalman frowned slightly after listening to his son's report, "His condition is that simple, to send Sarai's head to Chang'an?"

"Another condition is that the two Geluolu tribes in the Talas River have surrendered to the Tang Dynasty."

"I know this!"

Nalman waved his hand to interrupt his son. He paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his hands. He really couldn't understand how easily Li Ye gave him the population and territory of the powerful army. He had no friendship with him.

!

"Father, do we really want to kill Sarai?"

"nonsense!"

Nalman glared at his son fiercely, "Wusule is keeping an eye on the powerful troops! If we don't take it, we will gain the advantage of Tuqi Shiren in vain, how will we explain to the ancestors of Ge Luolu in the future?"

"Father is right, now is not the time to be merciful."

Nalman ignored Li Ye's intentions and said immediately: "We will go back immediately and lead the army south to retrieve the powerful troops. I will personally deliver Salai's head to Chang'an."

Two days later, Bakhna's caravan finally arrived. It consisted of 3,000 camels and hundreds of merchants, including Alole. He will ascend the throne next year and become the official king. This time, he will serve as the crown prince.

He went to pay homage to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty as an official. Of course, several important officials followed him to Chang'an.

Li Ye handed over the army to Pei Xiu and handed over the government affairs to Cen Shen. He also packed up and went on the road. He left Chang'an for a full year before he went back again. He had been away for half a year. He would not return to Suiye until at least next spring.

.

The journey was long, so Li Ye chose to ride a camel instead of riding a horse. Although it was slower, it was very comfortable and reduced a lot of fatigue during the journey.

This trip will take at least three months and we will not reach Chang'an until late autumn.

"If my father didn't remind me, I would have forgotten that you are our Ye Hu from Ba Khanna."

Arole said with a smile: "My father wants to recruit you as his son-in-law, and my sister also likes you. You should think about it carefully!"

Li Ye laughed and said, "Your unmarried sister is Qianquan! She is only eleven years old and is still a minor. Will she become a saint next year? It will be six years later. Then I will

If you haven’t married yet, let’s talk about it later!”

Arolie chuckled and offered another tempting offer: "A dowry of ten thousand taels of gold, please agree as soon as possible! I can give you the gold first."

"Speaking of gold, is the big cauldron you are carrying made of gold?" Li Ye changed his topic.

Arolie looked back at the strongest camel and the heavy objects on it, and lowered his voice and said: "That is Bakhna's national artifact. It weighs a thousand kilograms. It was made with gold produced by my grandfather for two years."

My father and I discussed it for a long time and decided to dedicate it to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. If this thing is placed in the palace of Bukhan, it will be spied on by others."

Li Ye blinked and smiled: "Why didn't I choose it then?"

"Didn't you choose the ten Caliphate stones at that time? It's a pity that you still gave them to Zoroastrianism!"

Seeing his disappointed face, Li Ye smiled and said, "What the Zoroastrian took away was just a box!"

"No way!"

Arole was confused and said: "My mother even went to the Great Guangming Temple in Samarkand to pay homage to them. When she came back, she was full of praise, saying that she had never seen such beautiful gems, and they were worthy of being sacred objects of Zoroastrianism!"

Li Ye smiled and said nothing. If Arole realized something, he said in surprise: "Did you really change me?"

"Maybe! Who knows?"

The two looked at each other and laughed together.

In the Chang'an Jiaofang annex, a young dancer with a tall figure, a soft waist and a stunningly beautiful appearance danced in the lobby. There were more than 20 powerful people sitting around her. They kept clapping loudly and applauding, and everyone's eyes were filled with color.

He stared at the dancer in the middle.

Sitting in the center is Yang Guozhong's youngest son Yang Xi. Yang Xi is only seventeen years old, but he is handsome and has an arrogant face. He is wearing purple court clothes and a purple gold fish charm on his waist. This is a gift from the emperor Li Longji.

For him, Yang Guozhong's sons all wore purple robes.

Although he is only seventeen years old, he has already been named the Duke of Tongyi County. He is currently studying at the Guozi School and has already been awarded the title of Yin Guan. He will wait until he graduates from the Guozi School next year to join the Ministry of Household Affairs as an official.

The more than 20 nobles and nobles in the room were all hanging out around Yang Xi. Now Chang'an was the domain of the Yang family, and everyone in the court was trying to flatter the Yang family, hoping to get some light and benefit.

Sitting next to Yang Xi was Wu Gui, the son of Wu Xin who served as a memorial wine in the Imperial Academy. He poured a glass of wine for Yang Xi and said with a smile: "Who doesn't know how to fight against the barbarians? It's not worth looking up at them. They are just descendants of prisoners who were exiled to the frontier."

"

During this time, people both inside and outside the government were talking about the war between the Anxi Army and the Beiting Army in the river. The Tang Army won a great victory. Everyone in the government and the public was praising the bravery of the Anxi Army and the Beiting Army. This made the sons of these powerful men feel proud.

Very uncomfortable.

Yang Xi drank the wine in one gulp and sneered: "You're right, spending money and food from the imperial court to fight for thousands of miles of land, I think it's because I'm full!

Everyone burst into laughter and applauded, "Fourth Young Master is right, he is indeed full."

At this time, the dancing girl stepped forward to give a Wanfu gift, and Yang Xi waved her hand, "Reward fifty taels of silver!"

Wu Ji suddenly looked shy and thanked her again. Wu Gui laughed softly and said: "I heard that she is a newcomer who has just arrived and is still a young girl. How about the Fourth Young Master giving her a try tonight?"

Yang Xi smiled and nodded. Wu Gui's voice was not loud, so Wu Ji could hear her. Wu Ji lowered her head shyly, but no one saw it. A fierce murderous intention flashed in Wu Ji's eyes.
