Chapter 545: Dissociation

"You said that you and Ashina Funian returned from the peace treaty and killed cattle as a token of alliance?" Pei Xingjian said.

"Yes! At that time, we had no other choice but to give all the gold and silk and other things to Ashina Funian to bribe him."

"Both parties killed cattle as a token of alliance and made a verbal agreement. Ashina Funian let us go this time, but next time we meet, no one should be soft-hearted." Li Wenliang said.

Although Li Wenliang and the other four did not understand why Pei Xingjian asked about this topic again, they answered Pei Xingjian's question truthfully.

"Although we cannot fight the Eastern Turks head-on, we can alienate the relationship between Ashina Funian and Ashide Wenfu." Pei Xingjian said with a smile.

"Does the chief steward have any good plan?" Cao Huai asked.

They saw that Pei Xingjian had a confident look on his face, and he must have thought of how to alienate the relationship between Ashina Funian and Ashide Wenfu.

"Since Ashina Funian made a verbal covenant with you and let you return safely, we naturally have to thank each other."

"So this chief steward decided to give Ashina Funian a big gift as a thank you to him in order to thank him for releasing you." Pei Xingjian said.

"The chief steward meant to let Ashide Wenfu know about the peace treaty between us and Ashina Funian, so that Ashide Wenfu would be suspicious of Ashina Funian." Li Wenliang asked.

He had already guessed what Pei Xingjian was going to do, but would Ashide Wenfu be fooled?

Li Wenliang was not the only one who had such thoughts. Cao Huaishun, Dou Yizhao and Liu Jingtong were also half-believing and half-doubting.

"That's right! This time we will send another batch of treasures to Ashina Funian to thank him for letting you go, and let everyone know."

"In this way, Ashina De and Wen Fu will be wary of Ashina Funian when they learn of this news."

"As long as there is a rift in their hearts, we will send people to persuade Ashina Funian to surrender to the Tang Dynasty."

"Ashina Funian will definitely capture Ashina De and Wen Fu alive and hand him over to us. In this way, we can exchange for a greater victory at the lowest cost." Pei Xingjian said.

Will Ashina De and Wen Fu be fooled?

The answer is yes. Although the two of them colluded with each other, they did not completely trust each other.

Ashina Wenfu hoped to control the people of Ashina's family as puppets so that he could command the tribes through Ashina's family. Ashina Wenfu

wanted to control the emperor to command the princes, not to become a minister of Ashina's family. Naturally, he did not want Ashina Funian to stand over him.

And Ashina Funian would naturally not tolerate the existence of such a traitor as Ashina Wenfu. The common leader of the Turkic tribes could only be him, Ashina Funian.

Ashina Funian would not let go of anyone who wanted to covet the power of Ashina's family. He would not allow the existence of powerful officials who threatened Ashina's family.

But now that foreign enemies were in front of them, Ashina Funian and Ashina Wenfu had to join forces.

They all hope to weaken the opponent's strength through the Tang army, so as to achieve the goal of crushing the opponent.

This time, Ashina Funian was able to release Cao Huaishun and others, in addition to the attractiveness of gold and silk, the main reason was because of his relationship with Ashide Wenfu.

Pei Xingjian wanted to make their alliance, which was not so solid, fall apart completely.

"General Manager, what can the four of us do?" Dou Yizhao asked.

"You can go back and rest in peace. I will take care of the matter of alienating them." Pei Xingjian said.

Pei Xingjian decided to do it himself, which would be safer. In the next period of time, there would be no battles to fight, so he let Cao Huaishun and the other four recuperate first, and then consider other things.

"Then we'll take our leave first!" Cao Huaishun said, bowed and left, and the other three also bowed and left the tent.

After the four of them left, Pei Xingjian gave orders, ordering people to collect all the valuables in the army. He

also sent people to nearby places to collect some property, and gathered them in the camp, and then sent people to deliver them to Ashina Funian.

Carts of property were transported out of the camp and sent to Ashina Funian's camp.

The news that Pei Xingjian sent property to Ashina Funian soon reached Ashide Wenfu's camp.

"What? Is this true? You are not talking nonsense?" Ashide Wenfu said angrily.

"Wenfu Khan! This is absolutely true. Who in the whole Turkic world doesn't know that Ashina Funian's family accepted the money from the Tang Dynasty?"

"We also heard that Ashina Funian intends to surrender to the Tang Dynasty. He is planning to sell us to the Tang Dynasty."

"Hope we can sell us for a good price. The fifty carts of money sent by the Tang Dynasty to Ashina Funian are the deposit. After the matter is done, there will be ten times more." Ashida Wenfu's subordinates said.

After hearing this, everyone took a breath. My goodness, how much money is this? I'm afraid several generations can't spend it all.

With so much money, they all want to sell themselves to the Tang Dynasty.

"No wonder! I was wondering why Ashina Funian let the Tang army go. It turns out that he has become a dog of the Tang people and is willing to work for them."

"Ashina Funian is simply a disgrace to the Ashina family. He has insulted the noble bloodline of the Ashina family." Ashide Wenfu roared.

He felt that God was so unfair. Ashina Funian was such a wretched man, but he had the noblest bloodline of the Turks flowing in his body.

And he, Ashide Wenfu, wanted the Turks to be stronger and restore the glory of the Turkic Khanate, but he did not have the noble bloodline of the Ashina family in his body.

"Yes! How could the Ashina family, with such a noble bloodline, produce someone like Ashina Funian? He is the nephew of Jie Li Khan." Someone was puzzled.

"I heard that Ashina Funian's mother was a slave captured from the Tang Dynasty. Could it be that the slaves' dirty blood polluted the noble blood of the Ashina family, leading to the emergence of a scum like Ashina Funian?" Someone broke the gossip.

Everyone suddenly realized it and looked as if that was the case.

"Khan! What should we do?" Handahan asked with a salute.

"Let me think about this matter again. You all should leave first!" Ashida Wenfu said.

Everyone stood up,

saluted and left. Ashida Wenfu had thought about sending troops to eliminate Ashina Funian directly and selecting a person from the Ashina family who was easy to control to be the Khan.

However, Ashina Funian was not a pushover, and the Ashina family held a high position in the hearts of the Turks.

If he sent troops to attack Ashina Funian, and if he failed to conquer the city after a long time, relying on the appeal of the Ashina family, all the tribes would surely lead their troops to come to the king's defense.

At that time, he, Ashina Dewenfu, would become the target of public criticism.

He, Ashina Dewenfu, would become a rebel.

He did not want to go from being a hero in the hearts of the Turks to a rebel despised by all the Turks.
