Zhen Yu Tan looked a little flustered and couldn't help but look at Zhen Yu Chui.
Seeing Zhen Yutan's panic, Zhen Yu felt angry and said angrily: "What do you think I am doing? You said that the leopard bone knife was not stolen. Are you lying?"
"Tage, what's going on?" A group of Tutuns also looked suspicious. One of them couldn't help asking: "Are these two people really the murderers of Abhikar? If they are the murderers, they should
Put to death immediately."
After hearing this, Zhen Yuchui immediately said: "Yes, kill them now."
The two people with their mouths and noses covered stared at Zhen Yuchui, their eyes blazing with hatred.
The tribesmen around were also excited.
"Uncle Tan, you are a tribe elder. You should know that anyone who betrays the tribe will bleed to death in the worst case, and in the worst case, all property will be confiscated and expelled from the tribe." Wu Qingtage did not look at Zhen Yuchui.
Staring at Zhen Yu, he said frankly: "There are some things, if you take the initiative to speak out, your guilt will be much smaller. Considering the relationship between you and Father Khan, I will also give you a lighter sentence, otherwise... don't blame me for being unkind."
.”
Zhen Yutan felt weak, but he still stiffened his neck and said: "You...what do you mean by this? Who betrayed the tribe?"
"Well, I gave you a chance. Since you don't want to take the initiative to say it, don't blame me later...!"
Zhen Yutan glanced at the two prisoners, hesitated, and hesitated to speak.
However, the law officer He Laiba had already said to Dabo Shiluo: "Captain Dabo, please take off their boots."
Dabshelo winked, and several of the eagle shooters immediately stepped forward and forcibly took off the boots from the feet of the two prisoners. Horaib stepped forward, took one of the boots, and looked at the boots.
Then he raised the sole high and shined the sole around. As expected, there were four copper nails on the front and back of the sole.
"They are from the Tang Dynasty!" Someone pointed at the two prisoners and exclaimed loudly.
He Laiba had said before that boots with spikes were official boots of the Tang Dynasty. Now this boot had spikes and was taken off a prisoner's foot. Everyone immediately knew that the two prisoners were from the Tang Dynasty.
The grassland tribes envied the Tang Dynasty for its vast land and resources, but they were also afraid of the Tang Dynasty's power.
Among the countries surrounding the Tang Dynasty, the once powerful Bohai Kingdom was beaten to the ground by the Tang army. The impact of Wu Zong's Eastern Expedition cannot be eliminated to this day. Most of the surrounding countries, including the three tribes of Xile, and
The tribe has a deep fear of Datang.
When 100,000 prairie cavalry went south, the three Sile tribes did not participate because they were worried that once troops were sent out, the Liaodong Army stationed in the northeast would take advantage of the situation and invade the grassland.
Although the Monan grassland tribes did not dare to continue to worship the Tang Dynasty under the control of Tie Han, the three tribes of Xile have actually maintained a relatively good relationship with the Tang Dynasty. Although there are occasional frictions on the border between the two sides, the overall situation is
So far, there was no big sword fight.
However, Bu Liuda offended the Liaodong Army a few years ago. The Liaodong Army secretly reached an agreement with the Zhenyu tribe. The two parties agreed to attack Bu Liuda from both sides. After the Zhenyu tribe sent troops, the Liaodong Army broke its promise and failed to send troops in time as planned.
, which resulted in heavy losses for the True Yu tribe, and both towers were killed in battle. Therefore, the True Yu tribe was resentful towards the Liaodong Army, and this even spread to the entire Tang Dynasty. For the True Yu tribe, the distrust of the Tang people has become a
reached consensus.
But even if the True Feathers were resentful towards the Liaodong Army, the Liaodong Army controlled four northeastern counties and relied on the Tang Dynasty. The True Feathers could only bury their anger in their hearts and did not dare to directly confront the Liaodong Army.
conflict.
Today, two Tang people suddenly appeared in the tribe, and judging from their boots, they might be officials of the Tang State. This made the Zhenyu tribesmen present immediately think of their old grudges. The new grudges plus the old grudges made everyone pay attention.
The two prisoners were like a pack of wolves, seemingly ready to pounce and tear them into pieces at any moment.
Zhen Yuchui had been holding the knife in his hand, eager to try it, and seemed to be looking for an opportunity to step forward and kill the two people with a knife, but Dabo Shiluo was very vigilant and did not let anyone else get close.
An elderly Tutun man looked extremely solemn and said in a deep voice: "How did the Tang people appear in the sweat tent? How did they hide here without being discovered?"
"Someone must be covering them." Someone immediately said angrily: "Without our people covering them, they will never be able to hide."
"Dabsheela, where did you catch them?" Someone asked sharply: "Whose tent are they hiding in?"
Zhen Yu's hand holding the knife was already a little unsteady, and there was even a trace of cold sweat on his forehead.
Wu Qingtage walked slowly to the two prisoners, glanced at Zhen Yuchui beside him, and said lightly: "Captain Zuo, you said you don't know them, but they know you. Since you and Uncle Tan both
If you don’t want to say more, let’s listen to what they have to say.”
"Tage, everything has nothing to do with me." Zhen Yutan suddenly said loudly: "It's all...all planned by Zhen Yuchui. I...I don't agree with his plan, but...
...!"
Zhen Yuchui's expression suddenly changed and he said sternly: "Zhen Yutan, what are you talking about?"
"Zhen Yuchui, you...you are deliberately planning to make a big sweat, and those things were all planned by you." Zhen Yutan raised his finger and pointed at Zhen Yuchui, and said loudly to the people around him: "These two Tang people are from Liaodong.
The general's subordinates... They wanted to use Zhen Yu's tribe to attack Long Rui's army. They knew that Tage would not be manipulated by them, so... they colluded with Zhen Yuchui and wanted to support Zhen Yu.
Yu Chui succeeded the Great Khan, and then listened to their mercy and helped them...!" He raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead and said to Wu Qing Tag: "Ta Ge, I was threatened by Zhen Yu Chui and I don't agree with it.
He does this."
Everyone around was in an uproar.
Everyone present knew that although Zhen Yu Tan had some qualifications in the tribe, he was neither civilized nor martial. He only knew about having fun. Even Zhen Yu Khan had never looked down upon him. Leading a small tent with thousands of people, Zhen Yu
When Khan was alive, he never had much say in the clan.
Because of this, Zhen Yu Tan has always tried his best to please Zhen Yu Chui, who is extremely powerful in the clan. In the eyes of many people, Zhen Yu Tan is the number one lackey of Zhen Yu Chui.
But no one thought that the first person to betray Zhen Yuchui would be this person.
Zhen Yuchui was furious and said sternly: "You dare to slander me? I will kill you!" He held a knife and rushed towards Zhen Yutan. Seeing Zhen Yuchui rushing towards him, Zhen Yutan changed his color and immediately drew his knife.
He shouted: "Are you going to kill people and silence them? Tag, he... he wants to silence them!"
Including Tag, everyone present looked at him coldly, and no one stepped forward to stop him.
Zhen Yuchui rushed forward, swung his sword and slashed at Zhenyutan. Zhenyutan blocked with his sword, but Zhenyuchui was one of the best warriors in the Zhenyu tribe. With one slash, Zhenyuchui's arm went numb, almost
Unable to hold the saber, Zhen Yuchui raised his foot in shock and kicked him in the stomach.
Zhen Yutan yelled "Ouch" and was kicked to the ground. Zhen Yuchui was filled with murderous intent at this moment. He swung his knife and struck again. Zhen Yutan rolled on the spot to avoid it, but he looked embarrassed.
"He wants to kill people and silence them!" Seeing that no one was stopping him, Zhen Yu was horrified and shouted: "Tage, he wants to kill me, catch him quickly."
When Zhen Yuchui was about to look over with another knife, he heard a "swish" sound, and an arrow sank into the ground in front of Zhenyu Chui. Zhenyu Chui was startled, and turned his head to look over, only to see the arrow being released.
It turned out to be Dabsheela, who said angrily: "Dabshela, what are you doing?"
"Captain Zuo, this is the golden-domed tent." Dabo Sheluo drew back his bow and said, "No one is allowed to kill here without the order of the Great Khan."
"Don't you still see it?" Zhen Yuchui said angrily: "Zhen Yu Tan colluded with the Tang people, killed Abhikar, and also plotted to kill Tag. Now he is slandering me as the mastermind. Such a shameless person must be killed.
Get off his head."
Zhen Yutan had already taken the opportunity to distance himself from Zhen Yuchui, climbed up, his body covered with snow, and said angrily: "Zhen Yuchui, you still don't admit it? It was you who made me anger Zhen Yuke and let him and
I wrestled, and then someone took the opportunity to steal the leopard bone knife. You didn't say you wanted to kill Abhikar. If you knew that you let someone steal the leopard bone knife to kill Abhikar and frame Zhen Yuke, I.
....I will never help you."
"Uncle Tan, are you sure the leopard bone knife was stolen that night?" Wu Qingtage asked at this time.
Zhen Yutan said hurriedly: "Tage, I just thought that Zhen Yuchui had someone steal the leopard bone knife to humiliate Zhen Yu Ke. The leopard bone knife was a sword given to Zhen Yu Ke by the Great Khan, and he always carried it with him.
If it is lost, it will naturally become the laughing stock of everyone. But I did not expect that he actually wanted to kill Abhikar. The murder of Abhikar has nothing to do with me, it was all planned by Zhen Yuchui."
"Tage, don't listen to his nonsense." Zhen Yuchui also looked a little flustered, "The matter has been exposed, and now he is framing him. How could I...how could I murder Abhikar?"
Governor Zhenyu confessed that up to now, he had already formed a deadly feud with Zhenyu, and told the whole story: "You want to compete for the throne, but you know that Tag is deeply loved by everyone, and has the support of Zhenyu, so you have no guarantee of victory.
Therefore, I want to get rid of Zhen Yuke first. If I get rid of Zhen Yuke, Tage will be missing an arm, and your chance of seizing the throne will be greatly increased." Around the ring, the tribesmen were all excited.
Staring at himself coldly, with fear in his heart, he added: "Tage, there is another matter that He Laiba can testify to. Zhen Yuchui wanted to kill Zhen Yu Ke as soon as possible, so he coerced He Laiba and asked He Laiba to sentence Zhen Yuke to death.
Yu Ke is guilty. As long as He Laiba does what he does, after he becomes the Great Khan, He Laiba will be promoted to Tutun and given a large tent of three thousand people. Otherwise, He Laiba's whole family will be executed. He Laiba, is
Isn’t this the case?”
The tribesmen were even more horrified, thinking that Zhen Yuchui really did everything possible and even coerced the tribe's law officer. Such behavior was unheard of.
