Chapter 2132 Sabolo Khan Was Assassinated!
"General, don't be surprised. I know what I'm talking about. The eldest brother takes his own preferences and personal gains and losses too seriously, and completely overrides the interests of the Khanate. He has no way to analyze the pros and cons and make a choice fairly. , This is definitely not a blessing for our Western Turks."
Hubal said calmly without turning his head.
"I read this book Zhenguan Politicians, and there are some words in it that I was very touched by."
"The way to be a king must first save the people. If you harm the people in order to sacrifice yourself, it is like cutting off your legs and eating your belly. If your belly is full, you will die."
"If we want to bring order to the world, we must first rectify our own bodies. Without the rectification of our bodies, our shadows will become crooked, and we will have order from above but chaos from below."
"Haha, I know the general doesn't understand. The general only needs to know that these two sentences mean that the monarch must be fair and put the interests of the country first in everything. This is enough."
Hubalshe smiled calmly.
Du Wusili was stunned and couldn't say a word.
Looking over from where he was, he could see that at this moment, the fourth prince Hubalshe's eyes were sharp, and his whole body showed an intimidating demeanor, which made people unconsciously convinced.
Is this really the fourth prince that I remember?
Du Wusili was stunned.
"Brother, I hope we won't reach this point in the end."
Hubalshe ignored Du Wusili. He recalled the last words the eldest prince said before leaving in his mind. He slowly clenched his fists and finally slowly unclenched them.
Everyone must learn to grow
Since Ketun's sudden death more than a year ago, Shabolo Khan's favor for him has plummeted instantly, and his situation in the clan has also taken a turn for the worse. All of these have helped him grow rapidly and understand a lot.
After all, he was forced to this step step by step. The eldest brother underestimated him, and Du Wusili also misjudged him. He may be gentle, but it does not mean that he will blindly avoid it, nor does it mean that he will sit still and wait for death.
Brother, please don’t do anything stupid. You definitely don’t want to see me take action.
In the dark, a bright light flashed in the depths of Hubal She's eyes, and then everything returned to calm.
"call"
The cold wind howls, and the desert wind and snow howls down from the north,
A few days passed in the blink of an eye. The entire Western Turkic Empire was calm on the surface, but privately there was already an undercurrent of tension.
Surrounding the eldest prince and the fourth prince, the entire Western Turks were vaguely divided into two factions. From the generals and nobles to the ordinary soldiers and even the herdsmen, they all joined in, fighting against each other and at war with each other.
Outside Hubalshe's camp, there were also many elite cavalry. These iron cavalry surrounded Hubal She in circles, looking around vigilantly. Anyone approaching would immediately attract their attention.
Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst. The eldest prince has already said something that will be detrimental to the fourth prince, and Hubalshe has to guard against it.
During the period when Hubal She was on full alert, several major events occurred in the entire Western Turkic Khanate.
First of all, Uzang, who was very close at hand, sent an envoy to the Western Turkic Khanate. It is said that they were under the orders of Uzang Emperor and Prime Minister Dalun Qinling to discuss the disaster of herdsmen with the Western Turkic Khanate.
Immediately afterwards, a delegation from Youzhou also entered the Western Turkic Khanate.
And when another envoy from the Tang Dynasty arrived in the Western Turkic Khanate, even ordinary herders felt the strange atmosphere of the empire.
The Western Turkic Khanate has been invisibly caught in the gap between the various countries and the Tang Dynasty. The appearance and pressure of the various countries made ordinary herders feel extremely uneasy.
But in the entire empire, no one has said anything, and everything maintains a delicate but fragile balance.
Everyone is watching and waiting for Shabolo Khan's final decision.
And in this fragile balance, a few days later, something big finally happened.
"Wow"
In the early morning, the golden tent was suddenly rushed open, and a Western Turkic iron rider rushed in with a cloud of flying snow.
"Your Highness, it's bad, something happened."
"Your Majesty, there was a commotion last night. It seems that someone was trying to assassinate Your Majesty in the tent. Your Majesty was furious and summoned everyone in the tent. All the generals and nobles have passed, and now only His Highness is left. .”
The Western Turkic cavalryman knelt down on one knee and said urgently. After only saying a few words, cold sweat started to fall from his forehead.
"What"
After hearing these words, in the camp, the fourth prince Hubal's expression changed in shock.
"How could such a thing happen?"
On the side, Du Wusili couldn't help but said:
"Do you know the specific situation?"
"have no idea."
The Western Turkic cavalryman lowered his head and looked pale.
"At present, all the news has been blocked, and no one knows the specific situation. However, near the early morning yesterday, several corpses of the wolf guards who guarded the Khan were carried up from Sanmi Mountain. His Majesty issued an order, limiting the amount of tea to half a cup of His Highness. , enter the account immediately."
In an instant, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became extremely tense. Du Wusili looked gloomy and immediately looked at Hubal She behind him.
Although the cavalry report did not know the specific situation, but for some reason, he had an extremely bad feeling.
"Your Highness, something is not right about this matter."
Du Wusi said forcefully. He had been fighting all his life and immediately smelled a dangerous smell from this matter.
"knew."
Hubalshe shook his head and just let out an inaudible sigh.
However, that was all. Hubalshe quickly calmed down, slowly withdrew his gaze, and continued to look at the Zhenguan dignitaries in his hands. There was only a thin page left in the book.
"Wait for me outside, I'll be out soon."
Hubalshe said calmly without raising his head. The calmness revealed in that voice made everyone involuntarily become quiet.
The Western Turkic cavalryman was startled and left quickly.
After the initial shock, Du Wusili also calmed down and stood aside silently, guarding Hubal She's side.
"Let's go"
After just a few breaths, after reading the last page, Hubalshe closed the door on Zhenguan dignitaries, exhaled, and quickly walked out of the golden tent.
The whole mountain top was cold.
In the wind and snow, on the top of Sanmi Mountain, there were obviously many more tooth tent wolf guards around the huge tooth tent. These tooth tent wolf guards stood upright and held long knives in their hands. There was a roar of wind and the atmosphere was obviously a lot more tense.
Hubalshe frowned slightly when he saw this scene, but he didn't say much and quickly walked in with Du Wusili and others.
"Wow"
When Hubalshe opened the curtain and walked in, in an instant, countless eyes looked over like sharp arrows.
The huge tent was packed with seats. Hubalhe raised his head and saw at a glance Shabalo Khan sitting high on a big tiger-skin chair. His expression was gloomy and his eyes were piercing. It looks horrifying.
On his left, a group of Uzbek envoys were dressed in black armor. When they saw Hubalhe coming in, they all turned their heads and sneered.
Further forward, not far away from him, were numerous Western Turkic generals, as well as the eldest princes Yi Biyun and Wu Nu Shi Bi, who were standing among the crowd and surrounded by everyone.
Seeing Hubal She come in, he just sneered, a trace of ridicule flashed in his eyes, and quickly turned his head away.
The eyes of the pairs of eyes staring at the fourth prince were almost filled with gloating.
Hubalshe's eyes were like lightning, catching everyone's eyes one by one.
"My sons and ministers meet their father"
Soon, Hubalhe stepped forward, calmed down, and bowed respectfully.
Shabolo Khan did not speak, and stared at Hubalshe with a pair of sinister eyes like tigers and wolves, his eyes were extremely cold.
"Hu'er, I ask you, where were you last night?"
In the tense atmosphere, Sha Boluo's cold voice, like a tiger's roar, sounded in the tent, the voice was cold and emotionless.
"Back to my father, I was in the camp yesterday and didn't go anywhere."
Hubal She was startled, but quickly came to his senses and bowed.
"I'll ask you again, where is Shamule, who has always been good friends with you?"
Sha Bo Luo said again.
"I don't know this."
Hubalshe said with a serious face.
Shamule should have returned to the ranch a few days ago to lead the herdsmen. Moreover, now that the snowstorm is coming, how do I know where he is?
"Really? I ask you, what is this?"
Hearing Hubalshe's answer, Shabalo Khan's voice became colder. Before Hubalhe and Duwusili could react, bang, a black shadow flashed, and behind Shabalo Khan, several people The tall Yazhang Wolf Guard made a strong fork, and a corpse wearing the typical Western Turkic Khanate general's clothing suddenly hit Hubal She in front of him.
The huge force made the whole ground tremble slightly.
When the body was overturned and the front was exposed, and when he saw the familiar face and a little black mole above the thick eyebrows, Hubal's expression suddenly changed.
Shamul
It was the Western Turkic general that my father had just asked about.
But unlike what Hubalshe had imagined, Shamule's face was as pale as paper foil. He had obviously been dead for a long time, and his lips were purple. He actually died of poisoning.
"Shua"
In an instant, Hubalshe's heart contracted suddenly, and he suddenly felt extremely bad. really
"You bastard, how dare you lie in front of me?"
Shabolo Khan was furious, and his cold voice sounded like a bell in the entire tent.
"Father, my child dare not"
Hubalshe quickly defended.
But Shabalo Khan, who was in a rage, couldn't listen at all. His voice was loud and came from above his head.
"Shamule is a confidant assigned to you by your mother. In the Khanate, almost everyone knows this. You rebellious son, I knew that you secretly defected to the Tang Dynasty, but I didn't expect that you would be so bold and dare to instigate Shamule, you secretly poisoned my food. If it weren’t for my destiny and I didn’t drink that glass of wine yesterday, the consequences would be disastrous.”
"You're such a traitor, it's really not a pity to die."
Shabolo Khan's face was livid, and his angry voice was like thunder, making the whole tent of his teeth buzz and tremble.
