"Could it be that the imperial court wants to deal with the Turks..."
The Uighur prince made a gesture of pinching his hands, and the meaning was very simple and clear.
It's just that this prince named Fu Yan has a bit of a Northland accent when he speaks, and he has deep eyebrows and wide eyes. Combined with this action, it gives people a very weird feeling, a bit like the low-cost Hong Kong in the early years.

"Prince, you are too worried. I am just an unemployed county prince, just running around for my own small business."
Li Chongrun didn't know what the Turks were planning, and even if the Turks had evil intentions, after all, the war hadn't started yet.
What's more, the Turks also received the title of Duke of Return from Your Majesty a few days ago. In today's terms, it more or less belongs to a foreign friend.
If this Khan could live out his old age and die peacefully, he might even be given the honorary title of an old friend of the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Therefore, Li Chongrun could not say to this Turkic son-in-law: "Boy, the Sa family is going to touch your father-in-law's bottom to see if he is ready to rebel?"
"Oh, it turns out I'm going to do business. It's easy to say, easy to say!"

Prince Fuyan winked at Li Chongrun with an "I understand" expression.
"Brother, why do we still want to go to Yunzhong? If we don't surrender ourselves into a trap, what else can we do?"
When Guo'er heard that the two of them didn't seem to be shy about talking to outsiders, she approached them uneasily and asked.
"You don't want to find out what's going on here?"
Li Chongrun patted Bao'er's head: "What a great opportunity, we can use the guise of the Uighurs."
"But……"
Guo'er wanted to refute, but the little girl named Yue Liduo came over. She had never seen twins before, and she was very surprised. Xianhui finally got rid of the entanglement on the pretext of going to change her sister-in-law's dressing, so she came over again.
Bao'er is playing.
"Your Highness." Seeing her coming, Li Chongrun stopped discussing with Bao'er and wondered if he could get some information from her.
"Brother Li Bai, just call me Yue Liduo."
After all, they traveled for a day together, and the little girl was very grateful to Li Chongrun for saving her sister-in-law, and was very polite to Li Chongrun.
"I just talked to the prince, and it seems that the prince's impression of the Turks is not very good?"
"The Turks are the most annoying. They robbed our horses and pastures, and even robbed our people to serve as slaves for them."
When Yue Liduo was innocent and innocent, she spoke much more straightforwardly: "I thought they would be better off after my sister-in-law got married, but who knew they went too far. Even my sister-in-law couldn't stand it anymore. If this trip hadn't been
My sister-in-law is too worried and will never recover from her illness."
Li Chongrun understood a lot. No wonder the prince's expression just now seemed to be happy to see the Turks being frustrated.
After staying on the east coast of Wuliangsuhai for three days, the Turkic princess had woken up, had passed her breath normally, and was much more energetic than when she saw her before.
In three days, Li Chongrun was not idle. He walked around the coast of the huge Wuliangsuhai Sea and found that within a radius of a hundred miles, 56 Turkic tribes had moved in.
Tribes range from large to small, ranging from hundreds of people to large ones with a population of several thousand.
With the astonishing conversion rate of the nomads, once all these small tribes are in place, Mochu Khan can gather tens of thousands of string-controlled cavalry in this Hetao with just one order.
Of course, they were not all Turks. Li Chongrun also saw several gathering places of Han people, and there were even shadows of Khitans, Mohe people and even Sogdians.
However, compared with the dozens of Turkic tribes, they were more like a fig leaf to cover up the conspiracy than the people they found to colonize the wasteland.

And among the few people in the gathering place of Han people, Li Chongrun didn't look like a kind person. In a normal village, there are all strong men, and they all look like robbers and road hogs.

"Are the Turks planning to attack Chang'an from here?"
Even Xianhui, who usually has no interest in marching and fighting, saw some clues: "Don't the Turks read maps? Didn't you know that we moved the capital to Luoyang?"
"Don't make trouble, the son of the Turkic Khan is still my classmate, how could he not know this?"
Li Chongrun waved his hand to interrupt Xianhui's ramblings. "If there are internal agents and the defenses of Tongguan and Hangu Pass are cleared in advance, wouldn't it be a smooth road from Chang'an to Luoyang?"
"If there is an internal response, if the defense of Yanmen Pass is opened, wouldn't it directly open the door to the divine capital?"
Xianhui had an expression on her face: "I don't study well, don't lie to me."
"As far as I know, our uncle is in charge of the defense of Yanmen Pass. His Zuo Yuqian guard is very powerful. I want to drag him into trouble unless Her Royal Highness the Princess is ready to rebel."
If Bao'er was here, Li Chongrun would naturally not need to analyze these things, but his little adviser Bao'er had been having so much fun with Na Yue Liduo recently that he had no time to talk to him, so Li Chongrun had no choice but to popularize these contents with Xianhui.
"The garrison in Chang'an went to Anxi with General Wang Xiaojie a few days ago. I heard that they were going to suppress the Tubo people. My uncle also wanted to keep an eye on the group of Mohe people in the northeast. I heard that they have been quite turbulent recently and can't pay attention to this.
They came from Hetao, and since the Turks were granted the title of Duke of Guiguo, they have always been respectful to the imperial court. They even donated these two state capitals to the imperial court. This was very popular with His Majesty, so His Majesty did not put too many troops there.
Here on the north side.”

Li Chongrun pointed an arc in the air with his finger: "Use these people as surprise troops, cross the river from here, take Chang'an, and attack Luoyang via Tongguan and Hangu Pass. The main Turkic force will tie up my uncle's main force from Yunzhou to Yanmen.
If I were a Turkic Khan, I would definitely not give up such an ambitious plan."
"Looking at our dynasty, His Majesty's empire has been stabilized, but he has yet to establish a prince. The rise and fall of the kingdom are all entrusted to the emperor. If we can carry out such unfaithful and unjust things with a single army, our dynasty will be in chaos and the world will be in chaos.
Disputes, even if the Turks cannot face the world south, it is not impossible to learn from the great Wei Dynasty of that time."
Although Xianhui didn't like the complicated and trivial matters involved in government affairs, she was still a nerd who had received intensive education from her mother, Mrs. Wei. Li Chongrun just explained it briefly and immediately understood the truth behind it.
"So, brother actually supports my father in becoming the crown prince?"
Xianhui turned his head and glanced at Li Chongrun. The meaning was obvious. If his father became the emperor, then as the eldest son, Li Chongrun, coupled with the power that no one in the younger generation could match, it seemed that he would only have to wait for his biological father.
Once you're done, you can sit on that chair naturally.
"Maybe... fish is on!"
Li Chongrun didn't say too much, he just left Xianhui to think about it, and then stared at the float floating on the water again.
The big carp from Wuliangsuhai that was promised to the brothers was finally able to make a deal.
Li Chongrun sighed and wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead. It seemed that compared to the illusory throne, the big carp still jumping around in front of him aroused his interest more.
A few days later, the garrison cavalry in the clouds saw an absurdly long convoy, staggering in the northwest sky.
