Chapter 727 Questioning

"Gongsun Helan, and the general guarding the border, Yang Kunshang!" In the Taiji Hall, in front of the civil and military officials in the court and in front of the Tang Dynasty Emperor Tian Khan Li Shimin, Chu Yi stood up and said frankly, without any retreat or fear on his face, and made a sound. He sued Gongsun Helan and Yang Kunshang in one fell swoop.

"These two of us ignored the covenant between Gaochang and the Celestial Empire and tied up my princess and invaded my borders. If it weren't for my king's grand throne, we would have been reluctant to give in. At this moment, our two countries would have been in constant wars and constant disputes." As he said that, Chu Yi bowed his hands again and said clangingly: "So, for this matter, foreign ministers are here to overcome this matter, and dare to ask Tian Khan for a question on behalf of my king, and I hope Tian Khan can give me the king and the people of Gaochang!"

"Oh? There is still something wrong?" Li Shimin squinted his eyes and looked down at Chu Yi. The expression on his face remained unchanged. From Chu Yi's mouth, Li Shimin had already guessed the probabilities of it, Gongsun Helan, Yang Kunshang, one was Liu Yizhi's brother, and the other was Liu Yizhi's brother. The two were at the border and did this without reporting. If it was said that it had nothing to do with Liu Yi, I am afraid that not many people would believe it.

However, these two people were too brave, just for a small servant in charge of the Liu Mansion. They didn't count the fact that they had tied up the princess of a country, but they dared to send troops to deter the court, set up military rules, set up the Tang Dynasty's laws, and set up him as the lord of a country. Where?

That Gongsun Helan was fine. She was a troublemaker since she was a child. When she was in Chang'an, she had been in the prison cell of the Ministry of Justice. Which of the powerful young men who had been with him had never been beaten by him? It is not surprising that the boy was not honest and had less peace.

However, why would Yang Kunshang have been with him this time? Li Shimin frowned slightly. Although Yang Kunshang was the son of Yang Bofang and had some unclear relationship with the previous dynasty, he was also a general promoted by himself. Li Shimin believed that he would not read wrongly, be steady, cautious, and have few impulsiveness. If it were common sense, he would not follow the boy Gongsun Helan so recklessly. Otherwise, how could Li Shimin feel at ease to hand over such an important responsibility as guarding the border to him?

Is it just for Liu Yiu? Li Shimin doesn’t believe it.

"Cen Aiqing," his thoughts turned, and Li Shimin turned his head lightly to his nobleman's Secretariat Cen Wenben, and asked him softly: "Have you received a report from the northwest in the past two days? Can you tell that General Yang sent troops on the border?"

"Return to the emperor," Cen Wenben bowed and stepped out of the line and replied to Li Shimin: "There are many reports from the northwest recently, but most of them were boys who asked for money. There were no requests to send troops. As for General Yang Kunshang,"

After pausing for a moment, Cen Wenben replied with a strange expression: "In addition to the request for money, there is also a report of training military training. If the Wei-memorial remembers it well, the emperor would have agreed at that time."

"Oh?" Li Shimin thought for a while, and nodded gently and said, "It seems that this is really the case. There has been no war on the border for a long time. The soldiers guarding the border are mostly lazy and prepared. After seeing General Yang's request, I did give him an order."

As he said that, Li Shimin turned his head to look at Chu Yi on the side and asked softly: "General Chu said that our dynasty sent troops to invade the border. Maybe it is certain that our dynasty soldiers have really entered your Gaochang territory and injured your Gaochang military and civilians?"

When Cen Wenben mentioned that Yang Kunshang wanted to perform a military exercise in the previous episode, Li Shimin had a rough understanding of this matter. It was fake to invade the Gaochang border and provoke war between the two countries. It was a bit of water to practice military training and discipline training. Yang Kunshang's move should be just to take advantage of the situation and force the Gaochang King to release people.

Thinking of this, the suspicion that had just arisen in Li Shimin's heart disappeared. For a country like Gaochang, Li Shimin did not mind any extreme measures for the border generals. Not to mention the intimidation of military conduct, even if Yang Kunshang really led his people into Gaochang's territory and killed some lives, what could he do?

As long as there is a suitable and reasonable reason, Li Shimin is not the kind of weak and incompetent person who blindly seeks good things, and is a role that can be deceived. If someone or other country shows some malice to him, he does not mind sending troops to conquer and fight. In the past, when the country was poor and the army was weak, Li Shimin never feared anyone. Now the Tang Dynasty is rich and the army is strong, and this wise ruler is even more fearless.

To be honest, after so many years of peace, the emperor Li Shimin, who was born as a general, was really itchy.

"This..." Chu Yi's expression hesitated for the first time when he heard Li Shimin ask this. To be honest, when Gongsun Helan and Yang Kunshang sent troops, he only heard the secret spy named Zhao Du mention it casually. When asked about the detailed information at that time, Zhao Du was a little hesitant and unclear. Therefore, Chu Yi himself did not know whether those soldiers of the Tang Dynasty had crossed the boundary and entered the ground of Gaochang. When asked about it again, Chu Yi would naturally feel a little dumbfounded and didn't know how to reply.

If it were the case before, Chu Yi would have been blushing and didn't know how to deal with it. However, now, especially under the influence of the "Thick Black Book" presented by Liu Yi for several days, Chu Yi's expression did not change at all. It was still the old god standing there, bowing to Li Shimin with a thick face and replied: "As for whether your army has crossed the border and whether it has hurt people, the foreign ministers have no choice but to tell. If Tian Khan wants to understand the reality of the time, he might as well send someone to investigate it on the spot."

Without any embarrassment, Chu Yi looked up at Li Shimin, and added another sentence to the back without any rush, saying, "I think that if your army did not make any secret actions at the border, I, King Gaochang, would not make unreasonable trouble and would slander the two armies of Gongsun Helan and Yang Kunshang."

"Haha..." Li Shimin was so angry that he was a scoundrel with Chu Yi's scoundrelity. How could this kind of sloppy and smooth way of dealing with the world be able to do what a general famous for his rudeness? This kid is a talent!

After looking down at Chu Yi, Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "Since that's the case, then according to General Chu, I will go to the northwest to investigate. If Yang Kunshang and Gongsun Helan and others did have the act of crossing the Gaochang border and injuring Gaochang's military and civilians, I will not let go of it lightly, and will give Gaochang a reasonable explanation."

"However," while Chu Yi was relieved, he heard Li Shimin's remarks change, and Jier said: "Before this matter is still inquiry, for the friendship between the Tang Dynasty and Gaochang, General Chu will still live among the postman for the sake of the friendship between the Tang Dynasty and Gaochang."

"Uh? Tian Khan is wise, and the foreign ministers obey the order!" Chu Yi paused with a wry smile and responded softly. Before he reported this, he had already expected that if he wanted to go back safely in Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty, it would be a bit difficult.

However, if he could ask for help from Mr. Liu, Chu Yi's thoughts could not help but float to Liu Yi. If he was willing to help him again, he would think that there was still a ray of opportunity. However, the manager of their Liu Mansion had safely left Gaochang three days ago. Will Mr. Liu take action to help him through this level again?

"In addition to the incident of military invasion, there is also the incident of my Princess Jinye of Gaochang being openly kidnapped by Gongsun Helan. Wangtian Khan can give me an explanation." He has too much debt, and since the purpose of his trip was not to please him, Chu Yi didn't care about offending some officials and causing more trouble.

Therefore, the accusation that Gongsun Helan and Yang Kunshang of private soldiers had just come to an end. He calmly turned on the incident of Gongsun Helan's kidnapping of the princess again, and acted as if he was unwilling to ask the Emperor of Tang to ask for an explanation. After saying that, he opened his eyes and stared at Tian Khan sitting high in the hall.

"Well, this is not a big deal," Li Shimin's expression remained unchanged, and he said calmly: "If it was really done by that boy Gongsun Helan, I can guarantee that Princess Jin Ye is safe, General Chu can rest assured. As for Gongsun Helan's crime, let's discuss it again after verification. Now, without any evidence, the words are really empty."

Li Shimin used the word "drag" technique in a superb way. Although he knew that most of the things Chu Yi said were not false, and that things like kidnapping and beating princesses from other countries really had a bit of the style of being a slutty boy Gongsun Helan, but Gongsun Helan was his own general after all, and in Li Shimin's opinion, his actions were somewhat refreshing. Although he could not be rewarded with him openly, no matter how much he did, he could not be too guilty. He lost his face in front of these foreigners.

Of course, there is also some meaning of compensating Liu Yi's favor. After all, people have helped themselves solve a big problem before. Although they have given many rewards before, some things cannot be repaid with simple material rewards. Therefore, when dealing with Gongsun Helan and Liu Yi's brother, Li Shimin would inevitably be a little biased.
