late at night.

Liu Wenjing was discussing with his subordinates that he would say goodbye to Shekui Khan until dawn to return to the Central Plains. Although Zhao Qi's words sounded a bit unlikely, he could not tell whether it was true or false.

Finally, I decided to return to the center as soon as possible.

"Liu Fu, was the messenger sent out?"

"Reply to the master's words, Xiao I had already sent Liu Gui and ten guards to the south in the afternoon. The young I had already told them as the master's words. This time I did not go to the grassland, but returned to Hedong from Hexi, out of Dunhuang, and the Hexi Corridor. As long as I passed Yumen Pass, there would be our inn and our carrier pigeons there, which could convey the good news of this alliance back to the King of Tang in the shortest time."

Liu Wenjing nodded, "Okay, everyone get off early and I'll be ready to go back tomorrow morning."

"Master, a guard from the Khan came outside. He said that the Khan had something important to tell him that the Khan went to the golden tent to discuss matters. He heard that something happened in Hedong." A servant hurried into the tent and reported.

Liu Wenjing frowned, "It's a matter of Hedong late at night. Is it really the matter of the King of Tang as Zhao Qi said? "Is something wrong with the King of Tang?" He did not hesitate at the moment, and immediately renewed and rushed to the golden tent.

When he arrived in front of the golden tent, he found that the other five envoys who formed an alliance with the Khan of Shekui also rushed to the tent.

Everyone looked at each other, but they were speechless and stood on one side.

A golden wolf-headed guard walked out of the golden tent, "The Great Khan has an order to send six messengers into the tent."

When the six people came, they were all defendants that they had something to do with their respective Central Plains forces and asked them to come to discuss. At this time, everyone was worried and did not talk to the others. Although everyone was Han from Central Plains, they each held their own rulers, and they were enemies but not friends.

After Liu Wenjing entered the gold tent, she suddenly found that the guard did not follow him. She felt a little strange for a moment. After the six people walked into the gold tent, she became more and more surprised to find that there was not a single guard in the tent, only vaguely seeing. In the fire in the tent, Shekui Khan was lying on a small table next to the stove, with wine and meat waiting for food on the side.

A bad feeling enveloped Liu Wenjing's heart.

Suddenly, another sound of footsteps came from outside. There was a clang. The wine pot in a guard's hand fell to the ground, and with a silence, it had already pulled out the change around his waist, shouting, "What are you doing here? Come, come!"

The messenger of Li Gui from Hexi also stood there and explained, "It was the Great Khan who sent someone to spread it late at night, saying that there was an urgent matter to discuss with me."

A chaotic footsteps sounded, and a group of golden wolf guards rushed into the golden tent with a scimitar. A guard leader quickly walked to the front of the Khan of Shekui. However, he was frightened and found that the Khan was dead in silence.

"The Great Khan has ascended to heaven!"

A loud roar sounded, causing everyone in the tent to change color.

Dozens of guards had already grabbed the side of Shekui Khan. Under the torch, Liu Wenjing clearly saw that Shekui Khan actually had black and purple blood flowing out of her seven orifices.

This is death from poisoning!

A sudden thunder broke out in Liu Wenjing's mind, which made her whole body numb. He finally understood why he had been feeling uneasy just now. The Khan of Shekui suddenly came to tell him in the middle of the night, talking about the matter in Hedong. But after he arrived, there were envoys from other five families coming in front of the golden tent.

What's even more strange is that when we deposited the gold tent, we didn't see many guards outside, and even the guard who led them came in. There was no guard in the gold tent, but Shikui Khan was poisoned to death in the gold tent, but the six of them stood in the gold tent.

Conspiracy, this is a conspiracy. Liu Wenjing was frightened. He and the envoys from the other five families were all trapped in a conspiracy, and it was also a conspiracy to murder the Khan of Shekui.

More and more footsteps came, and many nobles from the Western Turkic Khan arrived. Then Daluo Khan, the eldest son of Shekui who lived in the military camp south of the Khan, arrived. As soon as Daluo arrived, the little Khan of Tongyehu had already arrived in a hurry, and the last one arrived was Zhao Qi, the envoy of the Liaodong Army.

Tongye Hu saw his brother Shekui Khan lying stiffly on the table, and his heart was beating violently.

"Shaman, how about the Khan? Is there any help?" Tongyehu asked with an anxious look on his face.

The wizard stepped forward and carefully examined the Khan Shekui carefully, and finally shook his head, "The Khan's in the Khan is highly toxic and colorless water. This poison is like water, colorless and tasteless. Just one drop can poison a tiger. The poison in the Khan's poison has taken at least ten drops of poison. So many poisons are mixed in wine. Once they die, they will not even have time to react."

"Who is it, who murdered the Khan?" Tongyehu shouted.

A golden wolf guard said in fear, "The Great Khan was drinking before, but later the wine that the Great Khan liked disappeared, so the Great Khan asked me to go to the warehouse to pick it up. As a result, when the young man came back, he saw these six damn Han people standing here. The Great Khan had already collapsed on the table, and all the guards who were supposed to be on duty inside and outside the golden tent disappeared."

Everyone's eyes turned to Liu Wenjing and other six people. Tong Ye Hu was still a little surprised when he saw these six people. Originally, he pulled Zhao Qi to borrow a thousand powerful cavalry in his hands. He had long thought of replacing his elder brother, but in this Khan Court, his headquarters had only 3,000 soldiers, and was still thirty miles away from the golden tent.

However, his nephew, Dalu Khan, led the Khan Court with a total of 30,000 troops and horses, and he stayed in the north camp every night, and had no chance at all. He grabbed Zhao Qi just to borrow a thousand cavalry from Zhao Qi, because his troops were in the northern camp where Dalu was staying overnight. As long as he killed Dalu, he believed that he would have enough chance to compete for the Khan throne in the end.

But he never expected that Zhao Qi not only did not deal with Daluo, but instead quietly killed Shokuike. He also blamed all the envoys of the six Central Plains families. Although it was a bit different from the plan, Tongye Hu was still very happy. After all, compared with Daluo, his elder brother Shokui was really difficult to deal with.

"You despicable Han people, the Khan is so kind to you, you dare to murder the Khan. People come and push them out, tear them up, throw them into pieces, and throw them to the grassland to feed them to the wolf."

When Liu Wenjing saw Zhao Qi coming in, she had already thought of who was framed by him. The biggest suspicion was Zhao Qi, because after they were involved in this murder, the biggest beneficiary was the Liaodong Army.

"I know, it was him, Zhao Qi who killed the Khan, and then blamed us, and he framed us." Liu Wenjing pointed at Zhao Qi and said coldly.

Zhao Qi looked at the Turkic people who were looking at him around and laughed a few times, "Liu Wenjing, don't bite people until you die. Fortunately, I went down to visit Daluo Khan tonight. Later, the escorts who accompanied him competed with Daluo Khan's knights for a few more games. Otherwise, you would have been framed by you."

Daro Khan looked at the eyes around and nodded, "Tonight Ben Khan did invite the Zhao envoy with the Northern Camp to have a banquet, and his accompanying horses also participated in the wrestling and banquet. The people on duty in the Northern Camp had just reported to Ben Khan that the Zhao envoy had never left the camp tonight."

"Impossible!" Liu Wenjing looked disbelieved.

Zhao Qi sneered, "Facts are better than heroes. If this guard brother hadn't happened to go to get the wine, I'm afraid that you would not have escaped your evil hands. I really didn't expect that you would be so sinister, but I didn't know why you had to assassinate the Great Khan since you had signed an alliance with the Great Khan? Could it be that the terms in the alliance were too harsh, that would make you kill him?"

"Khan, the brothers on duty in the golden tent were found tonight. They were all in a miscellaneous tent outside the golden tent. More than a dozen brothers died of blood and poisoning in the seven orifices."

"Kill them, kill them!"

A burst of angry roars rang out.

Daro Khan's eyes were also full of doubts. He didn't believe that Liu Wenjing and the others dared to kill the Khan after signing the alliance. There was neither reason nor this ability. But now all the evidence points to them, and the nobles were angry, so it was difficult for him to deal with it.

After thinking about it, Daro Khan swept the faces of the people in the tent and said coldly, "Preserve these six people, and immediately search the tents and people of the six people."

Tongye Hu Khan said dissatisfiedly, "What else can I do to investigate? This is obvious. There is sufficient evidence. They must be killed immediately to avenge the Great Khan."

Tongye's ally, Yili Xiao Khan also hurriedly said, "Tongye Hu is right. If you don't kill, you won't be able to calm everyone's anger. Not only will you kill them, you must also immediately abolish the covenant between the Great Khan and them. How can we still help such people?"

The other man also shouted loudly, "Not only should we abolish the covenant, we should also send troops immediately to kill all the damn Han people who dared to murder the Khan, and pay the blood debts for blood!"

"Blood debt and blood repayment!"

Dalu Khan looked at the fiercest Tong Yehu and others with some dissatisfaction. Not to mention that the truth of the matter has not been found out yet, even if it is found out, they will never lead the troops to go south to take revenge for the sake of the Turks.

"This matter is put aside for the time being. I will send someone to thoroughly investigate the matter and discuss everything after it is investigated. Now that the Great Khan is dead, the country cannot be without a master for a day. We must immediately bury the Great Khan and immediately select a new Great Khan." Daro said loudly.

What Daro mentioned was that even the Khan of Yehu could not refute it, and the so-called election of the Khan was just an empty word. The position of the Khan was always designated by the former Khan. Of course, if the new Khan was too weak, then other powerful royal families could also compete for this position. However, Daro has been loved by the Khan of Shekui over the years and has favored him. The tribes and soldiers in Daro's hands are the strongest among the people.

At this time, Daluo Khan, the eldest son of Shekui, who was the heir to the designated Khan throne, will undoubtedly ascend to the position of Dalu.

Looking at Dalu Khan who was intimidating everyone, Tongye Hu Xiao Khan gritted his teeth secretly, his eyes filled with gloomy expressions. (To be continued)
