There are rumors in unofficial history that in the fourth year of Zhenguan, the Tang Dynasty attacked the Turks in the north. The Turks were destroyed by Empress Xiao and were brought back to the Tang Dynasty by the commander Li Jing. Then they were raised in the outer palace by Emperor Taizong Li Shimin and thought they were concubines.

Li Ke had already questioned this statement a lot, but after today, Li Ke felt that this was absurd statement.

Empress Xiao is over 60 years old. Even though she looks beautiful when she was young, she is at this age and the weather on the grassland is frustrating, so how could Li Shimin have too many inappropriate thoughts about Empress Xiao?

Moreover, after experiencing hardships, Empress Xiao was plain and had no power. Empress Xiao’s identity was extremely special. She was the queen of the previous dynasty. How could Li Shimin take the blame for the world and do such a difficult task?

Li Ke has gained a lot today with Empress Xiao. If he could use Empress Xiao’s line to gather the Xiao family in Lanling, it would be a huge help to him.

To gather the Xiao family in Lanling, he would gather half of the Jiangnan family. Then he would have the capital to fight with the Guanlong family. There is no insurmountable gap between the prince and the concubine's son.

Of course, all of this requires Li Ke himself to be worthy of the Lanling Xiao family. A thousand-year-old family like Lanling Xiao family will not bet on a worthless concubine. He wants to let Lanling Xiao family see his value, and he is now accumulating such value in the Turks.

Li Ke and Ashinayun got out of Empress Xiao’s tent together. Instead of going back each other, they walked forward side by side in a tacit understanding.

Since Ashinayun helped Li Ke to deal with the Kang family and his son this time, their relationship has eased a lot, but when they walked together, they didn't know what to say for a moment, but it seemed as if there was really a thread pulling them in the dark. Although they didn't know why this happened, they just walked a long way.

It seems like a long time, but it seems like a short one. If you always keep going in silence, it will be impossible. After a while, Li Ke finally broke the silence first.

"Thank you for what happened that day." Li Ke suddenly said to Asunayun.

When Ashinayun's face was obviously much more relaxed when he heard Li Ke speak first, Ashinayun breathed a sigh of relief and said to Li Ke: "This is your own ability, I just reminded you."

Li Ke said: "If it weren't for your reminder, I'd probably have been ambushed by Kang Am and become a dead soul under the arrow."

After hearing Li Ke's words, Ashinayun turned to look at Li Ke, as if he was looking at a fresh animal that he had never seen before, and laughed out loud.

"Are you? Absolutely no matter how smart a wild dog is, it can't beat a cunning fox. Even without me, you can still play Kang Am in your palm." Ashinayun seemed to have inexplicable confidence in Li Ke, thinking that he could always get rid of danger. As for Kang Am, who seemed vicious, he was no match for Li Ke at all.

After all, no matter how smart a dog is, can it be more cunning than a fox?

Li Ke also smiled and said, "Fox? That's better than a dead wild dog at least, so I'll just think you're praising me."

There were not many misunderstandings between Li Ke and Asunayun. In addition, Asunayun was straightforward and not a vengeful person. The two of them chatted for a while while walking, and the originally not-deep gap faded a lot.

"Do you really have a way to bring your grandmother back to the Tang Dynasty?" Asunayun asked curiously.

Whenever Ashinayun talks to Empress Xiao, as she talks, Empress Xiao will mention every bit of her past. Ashinayun can see that Empress Xiao is homesick.

Asunayun is very close to Empress Xiao and has the best relationship. If Empress Xiao can really go back to her hometown to see her, Asunayun will be happy for her.

Li Ke nodded and said, "Of course there is a way, but it is not convenient to say it now. If you say it, it will not work."

Li Ke looked mysterious, as if he was really confident and had any way to achieve it.

Seeing Li Ke say this, Ashinayun just thought that Li Ke was really inconvenient to speak, so he stopped asking, but instead asked, "What about what you promised me?"

After Ashinayun said this, Li Ke immediately remembered that he had promised Ashinayun that he would take her to travel to the Tang Dynasty and see the scenery of the southern country.

Li Ke said to Asunayun: "I can do what I promise you. When the time is right, take a good look at the scenery of my Tang Dynasty."

Asanuyun was young and was just a playful moment. When Li Ke said this, she immediately became interested.

She once heard Empress Xiao mention many scenery in the southern country, the magnificent Chang'an City, the beautiful Jiangnan water towns, the steep Shu Road, and the canal that stretched for thousands of miles, all of which poured out from Asunayun's mouth for a moment.

"Also, I have to try the fine wines of the Tang Dynasty, Jiannanchun, Lang Guanqing, Jiuyingjiu, by the way, and the palace pastries you mentioned, I have to taste all the things carefully."

Ashin Yun said, as if she was about to set off to head south, she looked eager to try.

The Turks, born on the grassland, were born curious about the rumored rich and fertile land of the Tang Dynasty. However, those Turkish generals were curious about the land of the Tang Dynasty and women, while Ashinayun was curious about the scenery and food.

Li Ke replied in response: "Okay, think about it carefully when you think about it, and I will take you there together."

Upon hearing this, Asunayun happily stroking her hands, "Then are you and me?"

Li Ke thought for a while and replied, "If you don't like the fun, we will go there. If you like the crowds, I will take my brother with you. I believe he is willing to go with me."

"Do you have a brother?" Asunayun asked curiously.

Li Ke nodded and replied, "Of course, but my brother is much younger than you. I'm just starting to have sex now."

As Li Ke said, he couldn't help but think of his younger brother who was far away in Chang'an. Now, he is still watching the sunset every day, hoping that he will return soon.

Ashinayun has always been the youngest in the clan. Today, I didn’t expect that Li Ke had a younger brother than him. He couldn’t help but say happily: “You are older than me and are my cousin. Then he is younger than me, and I will be my cousin. If I have the chance in the future, I will take a good look at him.”

As Ashinayun said, he couldn't help but look forward to the trip south.

"Your Highness, Your Highness."

Just as Li Ke and Ashinayun were talking, suddenly Li Ke's maid Daner brought someone to come over and saw Li Ke standing in the same place with Ashinayun from afar, and then hurried over.

Although Dan'er was Li Ke's personal maid, when Li Ke went out, most of the time Wang Xuance and Su Dingfang followed him. However, today Li Ke came to visit Empress Xiao and was unwilling to make a big fuss, so he just told Dan'er about his own arrangements and followed Ashi Nayun to come here. Dan'er came here in person. It must be something important.

Li Ke waited Dan'er to come to him and asked, "You are in such a hurry, but is there something important?"

Dan'er nodded and gasped and replied: "Your Majesty sent the envoy of Tang to come, and now he has arrived at the Khan Court."
