At the banquet in Jiedushi's house, Fumeng Lingjin was extremely enthusiastic towards Zhao Ziliang, but was extremely cold to Ashina Xin, making Ashina Xin restless in his seat.
As the deputy governor of Anxi and the governor of Jiedushi, Fumeng Lingjin had some words that were difficult to say to Ashina Xin in his position.
Most people at the table did not understand that the imperial court asked Ashina Xin to serve as one of the ten surnames.
Khan’s true intentions are unknown to Zhao Ziliang and Gao Xianzhi, Liu Tiao, Dugujun and others knew about it, but they were worried that Ashina Xin was not self-aware and could not figure out his position, so they made eye contact during the dinner and pushed Liu Tiao out.
Knock and bang.
While everyone was pushing glasses to each other, Liu Tiao, under the look of Zhao Ziliang, Dugujun, Gao Xianzhi and others, raised his glass and said to Ashina Xin: "Khan, I'd like to give you a drink."
Finally, someone paid attention to him, which flattered Ashinaxin.
He hurriedly picked up the wine glass in return, and the two drank a drink together.
Liu Tiao put down his wine glass and said to Ashina Xin with a smile: "Khan, I don't know what your plans are for returning to Tuqishi this time."
Ashina Xin quickly said: "When the little Khan said goodbye to the Holy One, he asked His Majesty the Holy Judge for instructions.
The Holy One thought that the small Khan could set up the tooth tent in Julan City.
General Zhao also agreed with this and waited until he arrived in Julan City. , the little Khan set up a tooth tent, issued a wolf tooth command arrow to summon all tribes to Julan City to discuss matters, and then used the gold, silver and jewels rewarded by the Holy Spirit to recruit warriors from all ethnic groups to guard the tooth tent."
After hearing Ashina Xin's words, the others couldn't help but sneer in their hearts, but their faces remained calm.
Liu Tiao asked with a smile: "General Zhao will lead his troops back after escorting Khan to Julan City, and although Khan is Ashina was pregnant with the son of Khan, but after all, he has not been around since he was a child.
Tu Qishi, now that the Khan has returned, how many tribesmen still recognize the Khan and recognize the authority of the Khan?
Then the Khan will not have a single soldier in his hands.
Why should the ministries obey the Khan's order and send arrows back if there is no one?
If you come to see me, what will the Khan do with you?"
"Uh."
Ashina Xin opened his mouth, stunned for a while.
He obviously had not considered this issue.
He always believed that he was the son of Ashina Huaidao and the orthodox successor of the Khan of Tuqi Shi Shi.
As long as When he returns to Tuqishi, the leaders of various ministries will definitely lead their troops to surrender.
By then, he will be in great power, high-spirited, and majestic.
But he never thought about how much recognition he had from Tuqishi since he was a child.
It was only after Liu Tiao reminded him how stupid his previous ideas were.
Thinking of this, Ashina Xin felt anxious and said quickly: "Sir, if this is really the case, what should I do?"
Liu Tiao glanced at Ashina Xin, shook his head and said with a smile: "If it really comes to this point, it will be too late to think of a solution by then."
"Then what should we do if General Zhao escorts Xiao Khan to Julan City and then leaves?
Xiao Khan will become a loner in Julan City.
If the ministries do not recognize Xiao Khan's command arrows, Xiao Khan will call Tiantian not to respond and call the earth and earth Not working” Having said this, Ashina Xin looked at Fumeng Lingjing and prayed: "Commander, what should the little Khan do?
If all the ministries are hostile to the little Khan, wouldn't it be a sheep falling into the tiger's mouth if the little Khan goes to Julan City?"
Fumeng Lingjin said calmly: "This has nothing to do with me.
Since the imperial court has canonized you as the Khan of the Ten Surnames of Tuqi Shi, then you are the Khan of the Ten Surnames.
Returning to Tuqi Shi is where you belong.
As for whether you can sit firmly in the position of Ten Surnamed Khan, that is your own business."
Ashina Xin was very worried and said anxiously: "Commander, you can't leave Xiaohan alone.
Please help Commander, Xiaohan will never forget him."
Fu Meng Lingjing glanced at Liu Tiao.
Liu Tiao understood and asked Ashina Xin: "My commander-in-chief never sees anyone bullying the weak.
He can help the Khan secure the throne of the Ten Khans.
But, What good will this do to the Tang Dynasty and my commander-in-chief?
Why should my commander-in-chief help the Khan?
As the saying goes, the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers.
How is the Khan going to thank the court and my commander-in-chief?"

"This" Ashina Xin hesitated for a moment and immediately said: "If the court and the commander-in-chief have any conditions, just ask them, and the little Khan will try his best to satisfy them."
A smile appeared on Fumeng Lingjin's face, and he nodded to Liu Tiao.
Liu Tiao nodded immediately and said: "Okay, Khan is quick to speak, and you will not be polite when you are a subordinate.
The court and my commander-in-chief have three conditions: first, After the Khan ascended the throne as the Khan of the Ten Surnames, he sent envoys to Beijing for pilgrimage at least once every three years; secondly, our Tang Dynasty will garrison troops in every city on the northern Silk Road from Suiye City to Shujian City.
The first aspect is to protect the security of the Silk Road On the other hand, it is to maintain the authority of the Khan.
Every year, Tuqishi must turn in 3,000 cattle, 5,000 sheep and 3,000 high-quality war horses as military expenses for the garrison.
Third, the Anxi Protectorate will send officials to various cities.
There are only three conditions for assisting the Khan's ministers in handling political affairs.
As for how the Khan wants to thank my commander-in-chief, it is up to the Khan.
The court and my commander-in-chief do not make any rigid requirements.
I don't know what the Khan thinks."
After listening to the conditions proposed by Liu Tiao, Ashina Xin felt that they were very harsh, but he also knew that he had no right to refuse at all.
He had almost nothing now.
Without the support of the Tang Dynasty, especially the Anxi Protectorate With the support of Tuqishi, he simply cannot hold the position of Khan of the Ten Surnames.
He has not been in Tuqishi since he was a child.
Now Tuqishi’s rights The structure has been finalized, and his arrival will definitely break the current power structure.
I am afraid that the leaders of various ministries are not so willing.
When it comes to power, some people can do anything.
If the Anxi Protectorate does not support him, Fumenling will If Jing doesn't support him, as long as Zhao Ziliang leads his army to leave, I'm afraid someone will lead his troops to kill him, the nominal Khan of the Ten Surnames.
Ashina Xin had no choice.
He gritted his teeth and said: "I agree, Xiao Khan agrees.
As for the commander-in-chief, Xiao Khan must have another big thank you."
After hearing Ashina Xin's words, all the officials and generals couldn't help but say in their hearts: "You know what you are doing."
Ashinaxin is not a fool.
Since he agreed to Fumeng Lingjin's conditions, he also wanted to put forward his own conditions, so he said: "But Xiaohan still has a small request, and I also ask the commander to agree.
This time In addition to Zhao Ziliang's troops, the commander-in-chief will send at least a thousand troops to Julan City with the small Khan and obey the command of the small Khan.
These thousand troops will be stationed in Julan City for one year.
Military expenses will be borne by the small Khan.
Return it to the commander after one year."
Fumeng Lingjin agreed after hearing this: "Even if the Khan doesn't say it, the commander will still bring it up.
If he doesn't send troops to accompany him and stationed in Julan City, the Khan will not be able to suppress the leaders of Tuqishi at all.
But I agreed to Khan's request, but I wanted to remind Khan that if one day Khan sits Once you have secured the position of Khan, don’t forget who supported you, a person with nothing, to take this position.
Don’t forget that without the support of the Tang Dynasty, you are nothing.
If you turn your back and are ungrateful, the Tang Dynasty will be destroyed.
I will not let you go, and my husband Meng Lingjing will not let you go either."
Ashina Xin quickly bowed and nodded: "Yes, yes, the commander reminded me that Xiao Khan was originally a nobody, and he is here today because of the support of the Holy Emperor, the court and the commander.
The commander will never forget it."
If you dare to have second thoughts towards the Tang Dynasty, Xiaohan swears, if Xiaohan is ungrateful, he will definitely die a good death."
After reaching an agreement, both parties were relieved and started drinking.
Ashina Xin and the officials drank until the students were drunk one by one.
After the banquet was over, Fumeng Lingjin stopped Zhao Ziliang and said, "Ziliang, you didn't drink too much, did you?"
Zhao Ziliang smiled and said: "General, doesn't he know how much alcohol the general has?
This amount of wine is nothing."
"Okay, I just have something to say to you.
Come on, let's go to the study to talk."

Zhao Ziliang immediately said: "The general also has something to say to the general.
General, please" The two came to the study.
The maid brought tea and then left.
Humeng Lingjin invited Zhao Ziliang to drink tea and asked: "Ziliang, after you complete the escort mission this time, what arrangements will the court have for you?"
Zhao Ziliang took a sip of tea and said: "If there are no accidents, the imperial court will send the general to Hedong.
Before departure, Lord Tian Renwan, the governor of Hedong, once approached the general and persuaded his majesty.
The general will escort Ashina Xin to Julan.
After returning to the capital and paying the order, he will go to Hedong to serve as the left wing military envoy and concurrently as the Datong military envoy."
Fumeng Lingjin frowned when he heard this and said: "I remember that you seemed to be the governor of Xihai, the governor of Xihai County, and also the military envoy of Datong.
Now you go to Hedong to serve as the military envoy of the left wing and the envoy of Datong.
Basically, there is no progress.
It is a flat transfer.
Ah, with your military exploits in Hexi, not only one level, but at least half a level, this is not normal."
Zhao Ziliang smiled and said: "Commander, although he has not been promoted in rank, his status is not the same as in the past.
The number of soldiers and horses under his command is no less than that in Hexi.
The soldiers and horses in the left wing of Hedong are the third most powerful person in Hedong, except for Lord Tian, the military commander.
Other than that, only Xiao Jiong, the military envoy from Hedong, is above me, and I, the Governor of the West Sea, can’t even rank high in Hexi, so it can be considered an improvement.”
Fumeng Lingjin nodded and sighed: "I thought you would serve in the DPRK this time when you go back.
In this way, with you in the DPRK, you can also inform Anxi of the DPRK's movements in a timely manner.
If you are not here, In the DPRK, I have a dark eye on the situation in the DPRK."
Zhao Ziliang said: "Commander, don't worry.
The general has not been in Chang'an in vain in the past few years.
He has also promoted some potential generals and officials.
In addition, there are also some people secretly collecting the situation in the DPRK.
General, this time I will inform them when I return and ask them to give When the general sent a letter, he also sent a copy to the commander-in-chief.
In this way, the commander-in-chief could keep abreast of the developments in the DPRK.
In addition, the commander-in-chief and Li Linfu were already at odds with each other.
Now that he was serving outside the country, he could avoid direct contact with him.
If there is a conflict, there is no need for the emperor to be embarrassed."
Fumeng Lingjin took a sip of tea, nodded and said: "That's fine":
