Chapter 29-Fake Surrender
The poison that Princess Tina had ingested didn't take effect immediately. Otherwise, it would have taken effect before she even got close to King Nanyang.
Therefore, before taking this poison, one needed to take some supplementary medicine to delay the time for the poison to take effect.
And there was no antidote for this poison.
In other words, Princess Tina would definitely not be able to survive after this.
Although Jie Li Khan couldn't bear to part with his daughter, he had no other choice.
If Princess Tina failed, then the expert assassins arranged by Jie Li Khan would be dispatched. It was also considered double insurance.
……
In the camp of the Tang Empire, the Tang army was burying their pots and cooking. Suddenly, the soldier who was responsible for monitoring the grassland tribe's every move said urgently,""Report! The Turks are acting strangely!"
"What abnormal movement? Do you want to surrender or fight?"
Cheng Yaojin waved his axe and asked with his eyes wide open.
"No, they raised the flag.”
"Lower the flag?"
Cheng Yaojin glared at him." This Jie Li is too spineless. He surrendered just like that?"”
He still wanted to fight a solid battle and earn some credit.
After all, the current battle situation could be said to be completely due to the Nanyang King's credit. He, Cheng Yaojin, was completely a freeloader.
In the future, with the Nanyang King in the Great Tang, it would be difficult for him to gain other merits, so Cheng Yaojin hoped that Jie Li Khan would not surrender.
As for Hou Junji, he was a bit cautious. Although he was a bit hesitant, after thinking about it, there was nothing wrong with it.
Nanyang King's City was here. If Jie Li didn't surrender, would he wait for death?
Li Jiang was simply too powerful, so Hou Junji didn't think much of it. He believed that the Turks 'surrender was only natural.
After all, surrendering could minimize the losses.
However, the other party did not come out directly. Instead, he was waving a surrender flag. It was obvious that he wanted to negotiate.
"Your Highness, it seems that this old man is still a little unconvinced. Why don't I, Old Cheng, go and beat him up?”
Cheng Yaojin suggested to Li Jiang.
Li Jiang shook his head slightly. In the future, the grasslands would also be the Great Tang's territory. Since the other party intended to surrender, there was no harm in listening to what the other party had to say.
Otherwise, destroying this place would mean the Great Tang losing a piece of its territory.
"Let's go!"
"Hurry up! Don't dawdle!"
Cheng Chumo led a few soldiers and pushed the Turkic envoy to Li Jiang.
"Kneel down!"
Cheng Chumo kicked the messenger and made him fall to the ground.
The Turkic messenger hurriedly knelt, his body trembling slightly."E-Esteemed Prince, our Turkic Great Khan is willing to surrender. To show our sincerity, the Great Khan is willing to personally negotiate with the prince…"
The emissary trembled as he finished speaking, his face covered in cold sweat.
He was frightened.
"Go back and tell Jie Li that this king accepts his surrender.”
Li Jiang had no intention of killing the envoy. He said,""However, if he dares to play any tricks, this king is not to be trifled with.”
"Yes, yes, yes…"
The messenger trembled at these words, then got up and ran towards the Turkic tent.
"Your Highness, something is wrong."
Hou Junji watched the messenger leave and said,"If Jie Li wants to surrender, just surrender openly. There is no need to do these things. Your Highness must be careful later.”
Hou Junji was of high status, and he could tell at a glance that something was amiss.
"No worries, this king wants to see what tricks Jie Li can come up with. All schemes and schemes are useless in front of absolute power.”
Li Jiang said casually, seemingly unconcerned. That's right, who else in the world could threaten him?
Scared my ass!
Since Li Jiang had said so, Hou Junji naturally didn't dare to object.
In any case, Li Jiang was in charge of the army now.
Jie Li Khan quickly received the messenger's reply and knew that Li Jiang would personally negotiate with Jie Li.
The moment to decide fate had arrived. Whether he lived or died depended on what happened next!
"Everyone, do you think this plan will work?”
Jie Li looked at the group of generals with a faint gaze. He was still a little worried.
"Will the Tang army see through our plan? If they send out a fake prince, won't we lose everything?”
"Don't worry, Great Khan! Mo Duo had personally met that prince before, so when the time comes, Mo Duo would also appear.”
"That's right, we have two plans. No matter how skilled that prince is, he will definitely die.”
"Great Khan, don't worry. Your appearance is eighty percent similar to mine. If I speak to them personally, they will definitely not be able to tell the truth.”
The tribe leader who offered advice was indeed similar to Jie Li.
This was also the reason why he was willing to persuade Jie Li.
There was no need for Jie Li Khan to take the risk personally.
"In that case, I can rest assured."
