Tang Dynasty good doctor

Chapter 481
Seeing Li Zhi running away, Wu Meiniang turned around on the ground happily.Her hair hadn't been combed all this time, it was still untied, and after turning around like this, her hair flew up and curved again!
Seeing the prince leaving, the little maids in her palace rushed out and clapped their hands, "Sister Wu, you really look good when you toss your hair!" Saying this, they all laughed.

Wu Meiniang blushed, and spat: "Don't talk nonsense! Come on, let's go back to the palace, my hair is not dry yet, it's so cold, staying outside for a while, it froze me to death!"

The little maids joked again: "It's not bad from the cold, although it's cold, but it's praised by His Royal Highness, Sister Wu's heart must be warm!"

Wu Meiniang shouted: "How dare you talk nonsense, I won't beat you!" She grabbed a ball of snow from the ground and threw it at the little maids.

At this time, she was not as majestic as a superior, and she and the little maids were like sisters, supporting each other, and the little maids were not afraid of her, seeing her snowball fight, they even grabbed snow from the ground and threw it at Wu Meiniang!
In an instant, the big garden in Lixia Palace was full of joyous laughter, full of the laughter of the court ladies!

Li Zhi ran back to the Lizheng Hall, and then came back to his senses, and smiled at Shi Aiguo who was behind him: "Look, I'm so lonely, I'm so dazed, there are no books here, I have to go to the Chongxian Hall!"

Shi Aiguo also said: "That's right, this old slave will accompany His Highness to the Chongxian Hall to investigate Cao Cao. However, why does His Highness want to investigate Cao Cao? Isn't he a treacherous minister? It doesn't seem right to use him to compare Wang Ping'an." That's right, Wang Ping'an is a loyal minister!"

He knew the rules very well, so naturally he wouldn't read the memorial, so he didn't understand why he wanted to check Cao Cao.

Li Zhi walked out of the hall, and shouted with a smile: "I don't use Cao Cao to compare Wubing, but to compare Ashinaxi, that is, the King Khan of the Dayan tribe. This King Khan is as stupid as a deer hog. You are a big idiot, just like Cao Cao!"

Shi Aiguo ran out with him, thinking: "Cao Cao is an idiot? No way, I remember that Cao Cao is not stupid at all, otherwise how could he coerce the emperor to command the princes?"

The two went to the Chongxian Hall to check the information. Cao Cao's information is quite easy to check. How can there be very few information about this kind of historical celebrity. As for Ying Xiao, it would be easier to check. , in the military minutes and other books compiled by the Tang Dynasty itself, there are detailed descriptions, which are basic and necessary common sense!
The two checked the information in the Chongxian Museum without mentioning it, but said that at this time, the three provinces of the Tang Dynasty, the prime ministers of the three provinces gathered in the west stage of Ma Zhou, and they expressed emotion when they saw the original memorial of the folding willows, saying that it was impossible, too Exaggerated, exaggerating military exploits to such a degree, it would be unseemly.

After experiencing the memorial of You Xiujie, governor of Guazhou, the prime ministers no longer dared to submit the memorial directly to Li Shimin. Whether it was good or bad, they had to go through it first to make sure that it would not irritate the emperor. Only then did he dare to send it to the Palace of Manna, and even sent the manuscript to Li Zhi first, but did not dare to show it to the emperor first.

Changsun Wuji pointed to the memorial on the table, and said: "With 20 Turkic soldiers who surrendered, they defeated the [-] elite soldiers of the Dayan tribe. This is too miraculous, it's not true!"

Ma Zhou said: "Who says it's not? Although the Dayan tribe is a powerful tribe on the grassland, it doesn't necessarily have 20 elite soldiers. I guess they are talking about control strings, including young women."

Chu Suiliang stroked his beard. He has always supported Wang Ping'an the most, but now he doesn't dare to support without reason.He said: "Even if women are included, it seems to be too exaggerated. If 20 Dayan soldiers set up camp, it would not be more than ten or twenty miles long. If 5000 people went to rob the camp, even if they rushed in, they would be afraid. It can't stir up any splashes!"

Ma Zhou said: "It's difficult. Even if you charge in, it's enough to charge in such a big barracks, but how can you come out? No matter how fast you charge, you may not be able to charge out. The Turkic soldiers are extremely powerful in cavalry and shooting. Wang Ping'an's equestrian skills... can't be flattered!"

Chu Suiliang wondered: "Master Ma has seen Wang Ping'an's equestrian skills?"

Ma Zhou shook his head and said, "I haven't seen it before, but when he was in Chang'an, he mostly traveled by car, so we can know that his equestrian skills are not much better. Even if he is better than ordinary people, how can he be better than Turkic soldiers?"

Chu Suiliang hummed, nodded and said: "That's right, look at those Turkic soldiers, their legs are a bit circle, they are riding on horses, they are more familiar with riding than walking, they can sleep on horses, Wang Ping'an sleeps on horses ...I don't think so!"

Changsun Wuji picked up the memorial, looked at it repeatedly, and said: "But this memorial was indeed written by Brother Fang. I am very familiar with his handwriting. I can see that the handwriting is his, and it is definitely not a forgery. With Brother Fang's details, it is absolutely There's no way it's going to be made up."

"So the Dayan tribe was really wiped out?" Ma Zhou and Chu Suiliang asked at the same time.

Changsun Wuji nodded and said: "It is possible. I heard from the messenger that he was in a hurry, so he took the first step, and there was a messenger behind, and he escorted Ashina to Beijing. As soon as King Dayan Khan entered Beijing, the news is that It’s clear at a glance whether it’s true or not!”

Chu Suiliang frowned, and said: "Ashi Naxi was escorted to Beijing, which is tantamount to sacrificing prisoners. With such a great victory, the emperor will tell the sky at Chengtianmen, and show the people that I am a glorious Tang Dynasty!" Wei, if the news is false, why don't you make a big fool of yourself? I'm afraid the emperor won't be able to bear the excitement!"

Changsun Wuji said: "Yes, I'm afraid I can't bear it. The emperor's condition has not improved, alas. Otherwise, we old brothers will go out of Beijing to meet them first, and recognize Ashina Xi first." Whether it’s true or not, let’s tell the emperor about it!”

"That's the only way to go!" Ma Zhou and Chu Suiliang nodded together.

They handed over all the affairs in central Beijing to the prime minister of Menxia Province, and asked him to handle them on their behalf.The three of them went out of Beijing immediately with their relatives, and greeted them in the north.

The envoys sent by Wang Ping'an and Fang Xuanling numbered as many as a thousand people, not only detaining Ashinaxi, but also detaining a group of generals from Dayan's tribe, some willow-breaking bandits, and Qu Zhi Mao's head was escorted to Beijing together.

Although there were a large number of people, the journey was not slow, only two days later than those who first ran into Chang'an to deliver the memorial.The leading messenger understands that this is a reward for meritorious service, it is a great thing, and it is not about going to war to die, of course, it is about running as fast as you can!

Changsun Wuji and the others left Chang'an, drove north for a day, and encountered a large group of Zheliu soldiers. Most of these Zheliu soldiers were Turkic soldiers. Only the generals who led the troops were Han. It was Gu Lantian who dispatched support from Yumen Pass and led the Turkic soldiers to escort the captives to Beijing.

The generals of Yumenguan almost fainted when they saw the elder Sun Wuji coming in person. They didn't make any contribution in the whole battle, but Wang Ping'an was quite generous and directly gave Gu Lantian [-]% of the credit, and Gu Lantian Divide the credit among the heads, whoever is usually the most flattering will get more points!
And this time the purpose of taking the prisoners to Beijing is to ask for rewards, and it is a great job. The generals they sent are even more skilled in flattery, and they are elite figures in the flattering world of Yumen Pass. When they saw Changsun Wuji and others coming , How willing to keep it, it is a big shot, until the hand hurts!

Changsun Wuji's personal entourage arrived first and explained what the prime ministers were coming, and the generals at Yumen Pass immediately became busy.They ordered that all the captives' jackets be stripped off, and they were asked to walk in the snow with their arms bare, tied into a string with hemp rope, and branches were tied behind each captive's back, as if they were pleading guilty. On the main road, it caused the crowds to watch!
When Changsun Wuji and the others arrived on horseback, they were far away when they heard someone shouting on the road ahead: "Long live the Khan, long live the Tang Dynasty!"

Changsun Wuji and Ma Zhou looked at each other, what's going on, aren't the ones in front of them captives, why did they shout such slogans!

When they got close, the three of them were quite surprised when they saw the appearance of the captives.Is there anyone who abused captives like this? The Tang Dynasty is a kingdom of heaven, and has always given preferential treatment to the descendants, so that the former enemies can be turned into their own people, and the former enemies will serve Datang with their lives.Such an insult in public is very comforting, who would dare to surrender after that?In order to avoid being insulted, why don't we fight to the end, the Tang will have to lose so many soldiers and horses in order to win!

Looking at the shirtless prisoner shivering in the cold wind with the branches on his back, as well as the triumphant willow soldiers beside him, Changsun Wuji said angrily: "It's really short-sighted, my Tang Dynasty's enemies haven't reached the point of death yet, Just humiliating the captives like this, who will dare to surrender in the future!"

Ma Zhou also shook his head and said, "The Turks have not been destroyed, Goguryeo has not been pacified, and there are countless powerful enemies in the Western Regions. If you are so arrogant now, what will you do in the future!"

But Chu Suiliang said with a smile: "It's quite a way to relieve hatred. Whoever made them dare to be enemies with Datang, if they don't punish them, whoever will repair them!" : "But they did go too far, it's winter, they can't freeze all the captives to death!"

The three talked about benevolence and righteousness, but none of them really let the captives put on their clothes, they all took them off anyway, so it's better to just let them go for a while, so that the common people can be happy too!
After calling the general who led the army, Changsun Wuji asked, "You put Ashina Xilai in custody? Which one is he?"

The general who led the army knew what he had said, and hurriedly said: "It's in the sledge behind. We were afraid of delaying time on the road, so we didn't use a wooden cage prison cart, but took him on the sledge. It's faster!" With one move, he ordered people to bring Ashinaxi up.

Ashinaxi was packed in a big leather bag, Zheliu Bing carried him over with the person and the bag, and put him in front of Changsun Wuji and the others' horses.

The general shouted: "Take him out!"

Zheliu soldiers agreed in unison, and they were about to tear Ashinaxi out of his skin.But Ashinaxi refused to come out, and shouted: "Don't say goodbye, you have something to say, please forgive me!"

Changsun Wuji was taken aback for a moment, and said, "This man is Ashinaxi? What's the matter, he's still so strong after being a prisoner?"

Chu Suiliang smiled and said, "Isn't that right, he's very energetic and his voice is loud!"

The general hurriedly said: "Responding to the words of the two adults, this person is indeed Ashinaxi, the Khan King of the Dayan tribe. He has not suffered at all during the journey, and he still eats and drinks well. He has been staying in his skin all the time. Let's pull him without even a rope."

He didn't finish his sentence, but Ashinaxi said: "It's better to tie up this king, Wang Ping'an's wicked thing has ruined this king!"

The prime ministers ahed at the same time, and Changsun Wuji asked, "What's going on? Why did he call it that?"

But Chu Suiliang said: "This Ashinaxi is obviously a man, and Wang Ping'an is young and young. How can there be any reason to look at him and ruin the word? Where do we start? Seeing his virtue, he wants to be a prostitute. There are too many folds!"

Ma Zhou laughed out loud. He always knew that Chu Suiliang liked to make jokes the most, but he didn't expect this joke to go so far, it almost made people get goosebumps!
The general laughed and said: "That's the case. It's not that the Lord Wang Hou ordered him to be detained in this way, but the method that the general came up with. When he broke the willows, the Lord Wang Hou once captured a group of Dayan prisoners, and he just took their belts After solving it, let those captives not dare to escape, and all followed them back to the city. The general learned a trick from this, and to prevent Ashina Xi from escaping, he stripped off all his clothes and put them in his leather bag , This trick is very effective, he was very stable along the way, he didn't find any trouble, let alone escaped!"

Changsun Wuji and the three opened their mouths wide, and all looked at Ashina Xi, seeing that he was only showing his head from the skin, and couldn't see whether he was wearing clothes, but the general would not lie to them!
Ma Zhou shook his head and said, "This man is a member of the family no matter what. After being insulted like this, how can he still have the face to live in this world instead of committing suicide? I'm afraid it's fake!"

The general said: "If he doesn't dare to commit suicide, the general will tell him. If he commits suicide, he will be taken out of his skin, hung on a wooden stake, and carried all the way into Chang'an, so that thousands of people can see that he is still alive." He looks like he is wearing clothes, so he will not dare to kill himself no matter what!"

Chu Suiliang got off his horse, came to Ashina Xi, bent down, and asked with a smile: "You are the King Khan of the Dayan tribe, how can you prove it?"

Ashina exclaimed happily: "This king is not the King Khan of the Dayan tribe, but a substitute who looks similar to the King Khan. You mistakenly identified the wrong person and captured this king by mistake! This king is willing to surrender, please forgive me , Let me go, or let me herd sheep for you!"

Chu Suiliang breathed a long sigh of relief, stood up straight, and said back: "It's true, that's right, I've become used to talking all my words!"

Changsun Wuji also breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Actually, seeing so many captives, I know the news is true. Brother Fang didn't exaggerate his military exploits!"

Ma Zhou laughed and said, "It doesn't matter if it's exaggerated. I never thought that Wang Ping'an would be able to get rid of this serious trouble. This victory will protect the northwestern border of the Tang Dynasty, and ten years of peace!"

Changsun Wuji was very excited, he raised his arms and shouted: "I am a soldier of the Tang Dynasty, mighty!"

The general thought to himself: "Actually, it has nothing to do with the government soldiers!" He also yelled.

Zheliu soldiers thought they were soldiers of the Tang Dynasty now, and they might join the Fubing, so they also shouted.

There were a lot of onlookers on the road, and when they heard the soldiers yelling, they also yelled.All of a sudden, there were shouts on the road, and the people were overjoyed, running around to tell each other that the border had won a big victory!

Ma Zhou was calm, he called a personal attendant, and said, "Hurry back to Chang'an, inform the ministries of this matter, and let them prepare. Also, it's time to present the memorial to the emperor!"
