Just when everyone in Chang'an City thought that Li Chengqian was in trouble, Li Chengqian was in Fuyu City to invite the leaders of the Xi tribe and the Khitan.

Fuyu City has rich storage, and the delicacies at the banquet are gathered together with the precious and shameful delicacies produced in Hailushanze. The sweet white wine is brought by Li Chengqian from Yandu. There should be everything except for the singing and dancing banquet.

However, during the banquet, both Su Zhi of the Xi tribe and Gu Ge from the Khitan were depressed and were not at the banquet.

After He Lu retreated from Fuyu City, Su Zhi and Gu Ge both determined that Li Chengqian had a large number of ambushers in Fuyu City that scared He Lu away. In order to show his loyalty, the two hurriedly came out of the hiding valley and led tribal soldiers to pursue He Lu. After a bloody battle, He Lu's Turkic tribes were completely defeated, and the two divisions also suffered a lot of losses, but when they thought they could go to Li Chengqian to get more benefits, they didn't care.

But the two of them didn't expect that they would be left behind by Li Chengqian as soon as they entered Fuyu City. Although they did not lose contact with the soldiers outside the city, they could not leave the city themselves.

Both of them were not stupid. When they saw this situation, they knew that Li Chengqian had insufficient troops in Fuyu City. Leaving them was because they did not believe them, and the other was because they used their tribal soldiers stationed outside the city to protect Fuyu City.

When they thought it through, they felt as uncomfortable as eating flies. Seeing Li Chengqian’s spirits make them listless when facing the fat sheep and wine.

Li Chengqian held the wine glass and glanced at them sideways, sneered in his heart, drank the wine in his hand, and then stood up and left directly.

When the generals of the Tang Dynasty saw him standing up and bowing to show their salutes, Gu Ge and Su Zhi also slowly stood up to salute.

When the generals of the Tang Dynasty saw that they were disrespectful to Li Chengqian, they were unhappy, and when Li Chengqian left the canal, they all dispersed.

Seeing that Tang Ren was so rude, his righteous faces burned like fire, he left angrily.

...

...

That night, after Li Chengqian arranged to deal with the matter in Chang'an City, he leaned on the tiger-skin couch to read a book, still thinking about the matter in Chang'an City, and felt as uncomfortable as if burning fire and fried.

I can't read the book even if I hold it.

"It's late at night, it's time for you to rest." Liu Kui reminded carefully.

Li Chengqian ignored it, not to mention that he can't sleep at all now, even if he can sleep, he can't sleep. He is still waiting for others.

Liu Kui didn't dare to say much, so she could only stand with her head down.

I don’t know how long it took, a little eunuch came in silently and said softly: “Report to the Crown Prince, Lord Shangguan is asking for a visit.”

Li Chengqian didn't want to speak, so he raised his hand and signaled Shangguan Yi to come in.

The eunuch understood his will and turned around and went out to Xuan Shangguan Yi to enter the palace.

After a moment, Shangguan Yi followed the eunuch and saluted Li Chengqian silently.

Everyone knew that Li Chengqian became taciturn because of his injury to the death of the Crown Princess and the Crown Princess. He did not speak without saying anything, and he tried to speak as lightly as possible when speaking.

Li Chengqian raised his hand again and saw Shangguan Yi get up, and said two words very simply: "Tell me!"

Shangguan Yi whispered: "As expected, Su Zhi and Gu Ge guessed that Fuyu City was empty and had already sent messages outside the city with misconduct."

"Um."

Li Chengqian heard it very calmly and then asked, "When will Xue Rengui arrive?"

"General Xue will be able to arrive in Fuyu City before noon tomorrow."

Shangguan Yi hurriedly said, "Although the Crown Prince Li's Ministry of War can destroy Goguryeo in the past few days, Chang'an City is not stable at the moment, and the Xi tribe and Khitan have just made new contributions, so it is not advisable to kill too many people!"

Li Chengqian nodded and was about to speak when Shangguan Yi saw it and hurriedly said, "It's better for me to send someone to spread the news that General Xue is coming tonight so that they can know that they are powerful and they dare not act rashly tomorrow."

Li Chengqian looked at Shangguan Yi and asked with a bad expression: "The Lone King has come out to act these days, just for this?"

Shangguan Yi was shocked when he heard this. He knew that he had been smart. He was about to explain but heard Li Chengqian continue: "When you see the Gu Wang retreating to the enemy in the city, you also want to resolve the rebellion between the Xi tribe and the Khitan without bloodshed?"

"I dare not! I have no intention..." Shangguan Yi explained in a hurry.

Seeing this, Li Chengqian sighed and said, "When He Lu came to attack that day, the Xi tribe and the Khitan hid in a valley not far away." When he said this, Li Chengqian snorted coldly, narrowed his eyes and said, "At that time, they made up their minds to sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight. Later, they pursued He Lu because they were afraid of being punished by the Tang Dynasty later.

Now they saw that Fuyu City was empty and they had bad thoughts again. This sore grew on people. If the pus was not pulled out early, something would happen sooner or later, just like the current Tang Dynasty."

Shangguan Yi knew in his heart that Li Chengqian was angry because of the incident in Chang'an City. Seeing that the Xi tribe and the Khitan were slightly unfaithful, he took his anger on them.

He bowed helplessly and said, "Abide by the will of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Seeing Li Chengqian waved his hand, he slowly stepped back.

Li Chengqian watched Shangguan Yi withdraw, breathed a sigh of relief, put down the book, got up to wash his face and go to bed.

Early the next morning, before Li Chengqian got up, he heard the people outside the city shouting horses and neighing, and the drums and horns were clamoring. He knew that it was the Xi tribe and the Khitan soldiers who were launching the attack on the outside of the city, so he turned over and continued to sleep.

Soon, he heard a quarrel outside the yard where he lived, and he couldn't sleep anymore. Li Chengqian sat up with his hair disheveled, and quietly came to the door in his silk pajamas.

Then he saw Brother Gu clamoring loudly: "Our tribe members thought we had an accident because they had not seen us back for a few days, so they gathered at the city to invite us out. We wanted to leave the city to calm the matter, but when we walked to the city gate, the defenders refused to let us out. What's the reason?"

Su Zhi also echoed: "That's right, I want to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to judge!"

Seeing their accent, Li Chengqian understood that they were demonstrating to him, so he slowly walked out and looked at the two of them calmly.

When the soldiers guarding in front of the door saw Li Chengqian coming out in disorganized clothes, they hurriedly bowed and bowed, not daring to look up at him. Only Brother Gu and Su Zhi stood there with confidence.

Li Chengqian didn't even look at them, and said expressionlessly: "I disturbed the Lone King clearly and beat forty military sticks."

"Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty?" Brother Ku couldn't believe his ears at all. At this time, Li Chengqian actually dared to hit them.

The treacherous and sloppy Su Zhi, in the idea that the hero would not suffer the loss in front of him, hurriedly bowed to Li Chengqian and begged for mercy: "Your Highness the Crown Prince, my tribe members were suspicious because they had not seen me return for a few days, and started to clamor under the city gate to attack Fuyu City. I had no choice but to disturb Your Highness the Crown Prince, and I hope Your Highness the Crown Prince will forgive you."

Li Chengqian sneered and said, "What a big deal? First get the military stick, and then see how the Lone King teaches you disobedient tribe members a lesson."

"Your Highness, if the soldiers outside the city attack the city, the consequences of Fuyu City are unimaginable!" Brother Gu said and threatened directly after hearing this.

When Li Chengqian heard this, his face became even more angry and waved his hand to drag it down.

Looking at Su Zhi and Gu Ge who were forced to pull him down, Li Chengqian told himself in his heart: the nature of a barbarian is afraid of power but not virtue.

After dealing with Gu Ge and Su Zhi, Li Chengqian turned around and ordered the eunuch to wash him.

After Li Chengqian had breakfast, he drank another pot of tea. It was almost noon on the sun. The Khitan and Xi soldiers outside the city were still staying in the clamoring stage, just shouting that the Tang Dynasty would let Su Zhi and Gu Ge go out.

The Tang generals in the city stood silently in front of Li Chengqian's courtyard. Gu Ge and Su Zhi, who were beaten forty military sticks, were also lying on the stand, and were carried by their tribe members, standing behind. Because they were afraid of angering Li Chengqian again, they both endured the pain on their bodies and gritted their teeth and stared at Li Chengqian's courtyard gate.

Li Chengqian calculated that the time was almost over, so he walked out slowly with a calm face and waved his hands to the generals who saluted him.

Then he looked straight to the single frame between Gu Ge and Su Zhi. Seeing Gu Ge and Su Zhi want to stand up and salute, Li Chengqian gently raised his hand to stop the two of them and said, "There are injuries to the two of you, so there is no need to be too polite."

Su Zhi hurriedly said, "Thank you, Your Highness, Prince!"

"Thank you, Your Highness, Prince!" Brother Gu also thanked him.

Li Chengqian looked at the two of them and asked with concern: "How is the injury? Have you applied the medicine?"

If someone who didn't know the truth saw it, he probably wouldn't have thought that the injuries on these two people were the ones he ordered to be beaten.

Su Zhi and Gu felt tired of listening to Li Chengqian's words, but they were still hurt by sticks on their bodies, so they could only smile and say, "I'm not seriously injured, Prince Xie is concerned."

Li Chengqian breathed a sigh of relief and said earnestly: "You almost fell into the trap of those people outside the city today."

Everyone looked at Li Chengqian with a confused look on his face. Do you want to beat them or do you want to make it for them? Everyone, including Su Zhi and Gu Ge, pricked up their ears, wanting to hear what Li Chengqian could say.

Li Chengqian looked at the confused Ku Suzhi and Gu Ge and asked deliberately: "Did those people outside the city come out and make noise after being ordered by you?"

The two of them were stunned when they heard this, and then they denied it in a stack of voices: "No, no, they just clamored under the city because they saw me waiting in the city for several days and were worried about my safety..."

Li Chengqian was disgusted and said angrily: "I was confused! If it were just for this, they had been making trouble all morning and would have been siegeing the city if they didn't see you out."

Su Zhi and Gu Ge thought in their hearts that they would not attack the city if we didn’t go out. If we attacked the city now, you wouldn’t kill us?

Of course, this cannot be said.

Seeing that they didn't say anything, Li Chengqian was secretly happy, but said earnestly: "They just wanted to trick you out and kill you."

"Your Highness, this is impossible."

"Although our tribe members are reckless and stupid, they will never rebel."

Li Chengqian looked at the two of them who were anxious to explain and pretended to be puzzled, "Will they obey you two?"

"Of course, as long as I go out, the noise outside the city will calm down immediately."

"Yes, please let Your Highness let me go out of the city..."

Su Zhi and Gu Ge, who were eager to leave the city, were already incoherent. Even Cheng Wuting next to him felt that he could not let the two of them go out easily.

Li Chengqian looked at the expressions on the two of them for a moment of entanglement. Finally, he seemed to have made up some decision and said to the two of them in a good tone for you: "No matter what, the Lone King is reluctant to let the two Qing family go out of the city and take risks!"

Hearing this, the two of them said anxiously: "Your Highness the Crown Prince..."

Li Chengqian was confused again and said, "Why not do this? The two Qing families followed the orphan king to climb the city wall and ordered the soldiers outside the city on the city. When they saw that the two Qing families were safe, they naturally retreated."

"Unsored?"

Everyone except Li Chengqian thought the word "well" was too ironic. You beat people up and couldn't hold them up?

Is it because the tribal soldiers outside the city are all blind?

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, you must not!" Su Zhi said in shock.

"I would like to follow His Highness to the city to try it out." Brother Gu gritted his teeth.

"Okay! Get on the north city gate." Li Chengqian ordered without waiting for Su Zhi to speak.

Seeing this, Su Zhi looked even more frightened. Thinking that the 100,000 Turkic troops did not dare to attack this Fuyu City, his hands were trembling.

Brother Gu looked at Li Chengqian who was walking calmly in front of him, his eyes were full of resentment, as if he was a poisonous snake who wanted to choose someone to eat.

The reason why the two of them performed this way was only because according to the plan they agreed with their confidants outside the city, as long as Li Chengqian led them to the city wall, the clamoring tribal soldiers outside the city began to attack the city.
