Murong Fuyun followed Li Yunhao back to the city gate.
" There's a troop of 40,000 cavalrymen outside the city. They're approaching Jade Gate Pass at high speed."”
Li Yunhao ascended the city tower.
"There's a 'Qiao' on the flag of the commander."
The first person Li Yunhao thought of was the guerrilla general Qiao Shiwang.
In less than five minutes, Qiao Shiwang's 40,000 cavalrymen stopped outside the Jade Gate Pass and read out the imperial edict.
"The Governor of Jade Gate Pass, Li Yunhao, has left the city to receive the decree.”
Tang Chao did not need to kneel to receive the imperial edict. He only needed to bow to show respect.
Li Yunhao went out of the city to receive the edict.
Qiao shi sized up Li Yunhao. He looked handsome and handsome, and it was precisely this face that could bring harm to many beauties. It was no wonder that Princess Ping Yang would abandon Chai Shao for him.
He confirmed that Li Yunhao looked exactly like the portrait and that he had the prefect's token to prove his identity.
Qiao Shiwang read out the imperial edict.
After a bunch of polite words, he entered the main content.
"The Emperor has ordered the Governor of Jade Gate Pass, Li Yunhao, to go to the Turks and assist Khagan Yi Nan in exterminating the Turks.”
In 628 of the Tang Dynasty, the Turks were in civil strife. Li Shimin sent Qiao Shiwang to the Yi Nan tribe to confer the title of Yi Nan Khan on the leader of the Yi Nan tribe to join forces with the Tang army to fight back against the Turks.
Li Yunhao bowed and received the imperial edict.”
The brief ceremony ended.
Qiao Shiwang raised his head to look at the 30-meter-tall city wall, trying his best to hide the shock in his heart.
In the eyes of the ancients, the city wall that was equivalent to a 10-storey building was simply a palace where immortals lived. It was too high to be reached.
"The goal of this trip to the Turks is to annihilate the Jie Li Khagan tribe. Besides you, Duke Lu and Duke Lu will be going with you. They are already waiting for us in the forest ten li away.”
"Are you sure Chai Shao won't kill me if he sees me?" Li Yunhao asked.”
Qiao Shiwang had a very bad impression of Li Yunhao, especially when he cuckolded Chai Shao. This was an act of adultery without a matchmaker, and Chai Shao and Li Xiuning's engagement was personally appointed by Li Yuan. It could be said that it was a legitimate marriage.
Now, the entire Chang 'an City was praising how Li Yunhao had cheated on Chai Shao, making Chai Shao feel ashamed to stay in Chang' an.
Qiao Shiwang looked down on people like Li Yunhao who did not follow the rules.
"You shouldn't judge a gentleman's heart with a villain's heart. Chai Shao personally killed Jie Li Khagan, and he is now a meritorious minister of the Great Tang, so he won't stoop to your level.”
Li Yunhao wanted to say something to Chai Shao.
Jie Li Khan was killed by Li Yunhao, Chai Shao actually claimed credit.
He had to f * cking make Chai Shao pay back tenfold. No matter how much credit he received, no matter how much reward he received, he had to pay a heavy price for falsely claiming Li Yunhao's credit.
"I'm not going to the Turks. Jade Gate Pass only has 300 soldiers.”
Qiao Shiwang acted as if he had expected this.
"The Emperor said that it's enough for you to go to the Turks with us alone. You have two hours to deal with the administrative matters at Jade Gate Pass and set off in the afternoon.”
"What if I don't go?"
"If you don't go, you will be defying the imperial edict. I can suspect that you have betrayed the country, and the emperor will remove your Han nationality.”
The trip to the Turks would take at least ten days to half a month.
Li Yunhao seized the time to return to the city. He could not let himself be labeled as a traitor.
Moreover, he could find an opportunity to deal with Chai Shao and let him taste the price of claiming merit.
He entered the city and placed food and water into his Backpack, ensuring that he would not starve to death on the way to the Turks.
The space of the backpack was equivalent to a small warehouse of 10 square meters. Time in the backpack space was still, and food would not rot inside.
He arranged for Fan Lihua to be in charge of city defense, Li Xiuning to take care of government affairs, Mo Xie to handle production, and Yang Lizhi to handle trade.
Li Yunhao was very relieved to have four beauties with 100% loyalty guarding Jade Gate Pass.
He put on his armor and rode his warhorse to meet up with Qiao Shiwang.
Qiao shi looked at Li Yunhao and said,""Is it enough for you to bring a bow, a Tang sword, and armor?”
Li Yunhao looked like he only had a set of armor and a bow, and his things were all in the system Backpack.
"The sooner we travel light, the sooner we kill the Turks and return.”
Qiao Shiwang thought to himself, Li Yunhao is indeed as the rumors say. He is a civil official who relies on his ancestors to do whatever he wants. He doesn't have any military knowledge, and he has to support himself on the way to the Turks.
"Let me make it clear that you will take care of your own food and clothing along the way. If you meet any enemies, don't charge into the enemy camp.”
Qiao Shiwang's words were very clear. He would not care about Li Yunhao's life or death, nor would he give Li Yunhao any food.
He didn't know that Li Yunhao had a large amount of beef in his backpack. He wouldn't be able to finish it even if he ate it for two months.
"Don't worry, I can take care of myself," said Li Yunhao.”
Qiao Shiwang harrumphed coldly. He rode his horse to a carriage and knocked on it three times.
The person in the carriage opened the curtain, and a figure came out and went in again.
Li Yunhao saw Qiao Shiwang from afar and respectfully said a few words. After receiving the response from the people in the carriage, he led the army forward.
Li Yunhao rode over on his horse. The curtain was already covered, so he couldn't see what was going on in the car. He could only smell the faint plum blossom fragrance.
He guessed that it was a woman sitting in the carriage.
Li Yunhao asked the cavalrymen near the carriage, lowering his voice.""Who's in the carriage?"
The cavalryman glanced at Li Yunhao and shook his head.""I don't know. You can ask someone else.”
It was obvious from the cavalryman's eyes that he knew but did not want to say it.
Li Yunhao took out a small piece of beef jerky.
"Tell me who is in the carriage, and this fragrant beef jerky is yours.”
The cavalryman swallowed his saliva when he smelled the delicious beef jerky. It was usually difficult to eat a piece of meat, let alone the beef jerky that Li Yunhao took out.
The cavalryman sneakily saw that the people beside him did not notice him. He quickly took the beef jerky and said in a low voice.
"I'll tell you this in secret. I heard it from General Qiao's personal guards. You must keep it a secret.”
"Yes." Li Yunhao nodded.
The cavalryman whispered," Princess Li Xiuxin of Luling is in the carriage. The Emperor has betrothed her to Khan Yi Nan.”
"Princess Luling is Qiao Shiwang's wife. Why did the Emperor betroth her to Yi Nan?" asked Li Yunhao.”
The cavalrymen were almost scared to death by Li Yunhao's words.
"You actually know such a high-level secret! I only know a little bit.”
The cavalrymen quickly moved further away, not daring to get close to Li Yunhao.
The people around them did not notice the conversation between Li Yunhao and the cavalry.
Li Yunhao rode his horse closer to the carriage. He wanted to know what Princess Luling looked like.
He lightly knocked on the carriage three times.
The person in the carriage lifted the curtain.
She had a pure face and a 21-year-old appearance. Her eyebrows were as beautiful as a painting, and her eyes were crystal clear.
She held a long sword in her arms and was wearing a pink muslin dress. Her collarbones were exquisite and her hair was beautiful and refined. From afar, she looked like a fairy that did not belong to the mortal world.
Ding! S-class beauty, Princess Luling.
Li Yunhao looked at Princess Luling's beauty. Qiao Shiwang had actually given his beautiful wife to Khagan Yinan. He was simply ruining a delicate flower that had just bloomed.
