Chapter 881 The picture appears
As soon as Labul's words came out, the three Yehu suddenly exploded from their positions like cats whose tails were stepped on.

Ashinagu said angrily, "Labul, what do you mean by that? What do you mean you can't bear it anymore? What does this have to do with us?"

"We have been in the Khan's court all the time and did not participate in this southward expedition. Labul, if you want to frame us, it has nothing to do with us." Ashina Duo looked at Hermu angrily and viciously.

This person is so despicable that he actually dared to frame me and others.

Ashina Lu also had a bad premonition in his heart. As soon as Labul appeared, he knew that something bad was going to happen.

The initial plans of the three brothers were all based on the premise that the other party would not have any intentions.

After all, the process of Jie Li passing the throne to Shi Luodie was very smooth, and the Right Wise King who held the military power did not cause any trouble. In addition, the two were both very young, which made the middle-aged foxes underestimate them, so they had the intention of usurping the throne.

These people used to be middle-level officials of the Khanate and had never shown any ambition. Who would have thought that they would have the idea of ​​coveting the Khanate's throne?

If it attacks suddenly and catches the opponent off guard, the chances of success are very high.

But I didn’t expect that the tiger had the intention to hurt people, and people also had the intention to hurt the tiger.

Once the other party is on guard, whether it is for prevention or deliberately framing you, there will be nothing you can do.

Not to mention having any plans, it might even be difficult to get out of this unscathed?

He looked at the Right Wise King who had been silent, and Shi Luodie who was sitting at the top, with a vigilant look on his face. They were all old foxes, and Labul must have been instructed by someone else to slander him and others, but he was still unsure whether it was Shi Luodie or the Right Wise King's intention?
The three Yehu of the Ashina clan never dreamed that they and Li Yan had the same idea. They wanted to frame each other, and Li Yan also wanted to get rid of them in the same way.

Labul was not affected. He faced his superior, Shi Luodie, and said weakly in front of everyone in the tent: "I am going to die. As the saying goes, a dying man speaks kind words. I just hope you can give me a quick death and stop torturing me."

"Your Highness, and all the generals, five years ago, I was arranged by the three Yehus to infiltrate the Khan and monitor his every move."

"Before this southern expedition, the three Yehus told me that if the Khan died during the expedition, then it would be fine. But if the Khan could return safely, we should assassinate him on the way back to the Khan's court and then put the blame on Xueyantuo's Yi Nan."

As soon as Labour finished speaking, the three brothers of the Ashina clan stood up and sternly accused him, "How dare you, a thief, slander me?"

"That's pure nonsense. I'll cut you into pieces."

"Your Highness, it is obvious that Labul was induced to confess and wanted to frame the three of us. I hope Your Highness can distinguish right from wrong."

The three men wanted to go forward and tear Labul's mouth apart, but were stopped by the soldiers, so they had to carry Shi Luodie out again with hatred.

Seeing this, Shi Luodie turned to look at Li Yan and said, "Right Wise King, how do you think we should deal with this?"

Li Yan had been silent before, watching the situation develop. It was only when Shi Luodie asked him that he looked at him approvingly.

In fact, after these people arrived, Li Yan could have captured them directly. The reason why he allowed them to do this was mainly to test Shi Luodie's true intentions. If Shi Luodie showed any intention of wavering.

Then he would decisively kill the opponent and then lead his troops to attack Urge. At worst, after some turmoil, he could select a new puppet.

Unexpectedly, Shi Luodie was quite smart. When he saw his people coming, he stopped playing tricks and acted very obedient, which made Li Yan think highly of him.

In fact, what Li Yan didn't know was that Shi Luodie had always found it difficult to rule such a large Khanate, and the unsuccessful war situation in Goguryeo made him lose all interest in marching and fighting.

Although he had accumulated some confidence and ambition after the subsequent victories, it disappeared without a trace after Jie Li's tragic death and Li Yan's intimidation.

He had figured it out completely. In the entire Turkic Khanate, no one was a match for Li Yan. Even his father, who had been fighting eagles all his life, had been killed by Li Yan. This was enough to show that Li Yan's talent and skills were unmatched by ordinary people.

If such a person doesn't dare to become Khan, then how can I, who is far inferior to him, subdue these wolves on the grassland?
Although he was not in power these days, Li Yan did not treat him badly. He had all kinds of meat and beauties. Except for Li Yan, everyone respected him very much. Shi Luodie suddenly found that it was good to live a peaceful life under Li Yan's protection.

Moreover, these Yehu and generals came to the funeral without even bringing a large army, which made Shi Luodie feel that they could not accomplish anything. Shi Luodie knew nothing about the emperor's superb art of balance, so he simply let it go.

Li Yan glanced at everyone calmly. When he was about to speak, Ashina Gu said decisively: "Heermu is the Right Wise King's man. His interrogation of Labul is suspected of partiality. It cannot be counted. I suggest a retrial."

"Yes, that's right!" The other two also agreed.

Hermu had anticipated this move and responded calmly, "Three Lords Yehu, Labur was not interrogated by my Right Wise King's people, but by the Khan's trusted guard commander Zhuolibuhua. If you don't believe me, you can ask him."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the tent was stunned. They all looked at Zhuolibuhua who was standing beside Shiluodi. This person was Jie Li's confidant and had always been trusted by Jie Li. If there was a problem with the positions of Labul and Gurentu, Zhuolibuhua's words would undoubtedly represent justice.

But no one expected that Zhuolibuhua had already made his choice and sat on the wrong side of the fence.

Facing the gazes of the crowd, Zhuolibuhua looked a little unnatural, so he had to stand up and say, "It is true that I personally led the trial of Labul, and there was no bias or distortion. There was no interference from the Right Sage King, and the results of the trial are true and valid."

With a loud bang, many people in the big tent were surprised and looked at the three Yehu with half belief and half doubt.

The power of a human being being three times that of a tiger is something these grassland people will never understand.

Li Yan has lived through three lifetimes and has extremely rich life experience. He has long known that there is no such thing as truth in this world. When enough people tell lies, lies become the truth.

As long as there is absolute power supporting you, the truth is only within your will!

Li Yan then slowly said: "Prince, generals, Labul seems to have something else to say, why don't we wait until he finishes and then discuss it?"

After that, everyone turned their attention to Labul.

Labul took a deep breath, looking weak, and then insisted: "Your Highness, I was indeed bribed by the three Yehus. Although the three Yehus were in Urge, they contacted many people around the Khan to provide secret assistance in the assassination of the Khan."

"They are Bayejile, the commander of ten thousand men; Heshuyegu, the commander of ten thousand men; Wuluolanlou, the commander of ten thousand men; Hulumo, the commander of ten thousand men; Qijinguna, the commander of ten thousand men; Hudugewuyan, the commander of a thousand men; Duoluowuba, the commander of a thousand men."

Labul named more than 20 middle and senior-level generals in one breath. These people were currently standing in the big tent. Most of them were from the two major ethnic groups of Tiele and Huihe in the central grassland. They were either Jie Li's former subordinates or people who were promoted by Shiluodie during this southern expedition.

Labul was not Li Yan's man at first. You must know that Jie Li is not a mediocre person. The people around him are related to his life and death, so how can he not be careful and cautious.

It is even more difficult for Li Yan to arrange his own people to be by Jie Li's side.

But human hearts are not eternal. Being loyal today does not mean they will not betray tomorrow. Anyone around Jie Li could be bought out, as long as Li Yan gives more than Jie Li.

Jie Li was very arrogant. Although he gave Laer a generous reward, he looked down on these people from the bottom of his heart and thought that they were nothing more than lowly slaves!
The previous Bote served for two generations but did not get the desired result of expanding the tribe, so she finally betrayed.

For the people on the grassland, human life is like the weeds on the ground, one crop after another, and they don't value life at all. Everyone works hard for the development and growth of the tribe throughout their lives, and they value the tribe and territory more.

These were all things that Li Yan could easily provide, so Labul became Li Yan's inside player.

This time, Li Yan even promised to give Labul's son Labutu a position as a leader of ten thousand men, and a vast grassland with abundant grass and water, so that the Labul people can reproduce from generation to generation.

In the face of such a huge benefit, Labul can give everything. Since accepting the task, Labul has been ready to die. Before dying, it is not difficult to continue to make the final contribution to the Right Wise King.

As Labour read out the names one by one, there was an uproar in the tent.

Now, almost everyone knew that Rabul was talking nonsense. The power of the Turkic Khanate was mainly divided into three forces. Rabul had wiped out all the people of Jie Li and Shiluodie in one fell swoop, leaving only the Right Wise King alone in power.

"Nonsense, nonsense"

This stirred up a hornet's nest. Everyone could no longer suppress their anger, rushed forward, and started beating Labul.

This time, Gurentu's men did not stop him. After a while, Labur was beating by everyone and was dying. It seemed that he would not survive.

Li Yan's face changed when he saw this, and he said angrily, "How dare you! Labul is the murderer who assassinated the Khan. You actually killed him in public. You are so bold. Come on, arrest these people."

At the command, countless soldiers rushed in from outside the tent and pinned this group of arrogant and brave generals to the ground.

Shi Luodie, who was sitting at the top, only now understood what Li Yan meant when he said a few days ago that he had thought of the reasons.
Li Yan's face turned cold. These people were doomed to die from the moment they came. The reason why they appeared in the tent was nothing more than to find a reasonable reason to get rid of them later.

Colluding with Xueyantuo and the royal family members, secretly harming the Khan and plotting for the throne is a suitable excuse, enough to silence the gossips.

Li Yan decisively turned around and looked at Shi Luodie with a serious face: "Your Highness, Labour confessed personally that these people killed people in front of Your Highness in order to cover up the truth. Their intentions are obvious."

"His crime is heinous. The facts are there, and the evidence is irrefutable. Assassinating the Khan is a capital crime. Please let the prince deal with it."
