In 630, Li Jing asked with a cold face, "Do you want to descend?" Princess Yicheng replied without hesitation, "I am a Princess of the Sui Dynasty, and I will definitely not surrender to the thieves of the chaotic courtiers!" As soon as the words fell, Li Jing raised his knife and fell, and Princess Yicheng cried out for her life.
Jieli Khan looked at Princess Yicheng, who was instantly separated from her own heavenly beings, looked panicked, and muttered in a stack of voices: "Descend, I descend, all descend!" "What kind of life did Princess Yicheng, who completed the last journey of her life in the blade, go through?"
Princess Yicheng, daughter of the Sui Dynasty. In 599, after the death of Princess Anyi, who was married to the Qimin Khan of the Eastern Turks, Emperor Wen of Sui, in order to continue to maintain friendly relations with the Eastern Turks, married Princess Yicheng to the Qimin Khan.
In 607, the Sui Emperor went on a tour to Yulin County, and Qimin Khan brought Princess Yicheng to the palace to see him, and presented three thousand horses to the Sui Emperor before and after, and the Sui Emperor was very satisfied and gave a large amount of money.
In 609 AD, Qimin Khan died of illness, his son Shibi Khan took the throne, and Princess Yicheng married Shibi Khan according to local customs. After Shibi Khan ascended the throne, he was unwilling to continue to submit to the Sui Dynasty, and put his ambitions into action step by step.
Shibi Khan repeatedly sent small forces to carry out surprise attacks on the Sui border, and the Sui court was not a vegetarian, and the Eastern Turks, who had been subject to it for many years, actually invaded many times, so they arranged for the general to lead an army to counterattack the Eastern Turks.
The real feud between the Eastern Turks and the Sui Dynasty began with the booby-trapping of Shi Shu Huxi, and Shibi Khan, unwilling to submit to the Sui Dynasty any longer, concentrated his forces, actively prepared for war, and was always ready to inflict a heavy blow on the Sui court.
In 615 AD, the Sui Emperor inspected the Great Wall, and the Shibi Khan, who received the news, thought that the time had come, quickly sent troops, and personally led hundreds of thousands of iron horses to attack the Sui Emperor. This was a good time for Shibi Khan to wait for a long time, and the Sui Emperor was in danger.
After Princess Yicheng learned the news, she immediately sent emissaries to inform the Sui Emperor, and the Sui Emperor retreated to guard the Yanmen Gate. The Turkic army rushed to hear the news and surrounded the Yanmen Gate, and the siege momentum was fierce, and the Sui Emperor panicked and did not know what to do. Xiao Yu, the attendant of neishi, gave advice to the Sui Emperor and asked his envoys to contact Princess Yicheng and ask her to help.
The Sui Emperor took his advice and sent someone to ask Princess Yicheng for help. In order to help the Sui Emperor solve his urgent needs, Princess Yicheng quickly sent someone to inform Shibi Khan that the enemy army in the north was invading. Shibi Khan did not know the inside story, thinking that the real enemy army was attacking. It should be known that in order to besiege the Sui Emperor, the Eastern Turks rushed out, their base camps were empty, and once the enemy army took advantage of the void, the consequences were unimaginable. Now that he has used his national strength to besiege the Sui Emperor, the reinforcements from all over the Sui Dynasty have quickly rushed to Yanmen Pass, and once the Sui reinforcements are in place, they will certainly be encircled, and after weighing the pros and cons, Shibi Khan has no choice but to withdraw his troops and leave.
In 618, the Sui Emperor was killed by Yu Wenhua and Dou Jiande in Jiangsu, and the following year Yu Wenhua was beheaded by Dou Jiande, and Empress Xiao became a prisoner of Dou Jiande. When Princess Yicheng heard about it, she immediately sent emissaries to welcome Empress Xiao and Yang Zhengdao to the Turks.
At this time, Princess Yicheng was already very different from before, after experiencing Qimin Khan, Shibi Khan, Princess Yicheng once again married the new khan heir, that is, Chuluo Khan. Compared with before, Princess Yicheng has already occupied a place in the Turks, not only has the right to speak, but also the manipulator behind it.
After Princess Yicheng welcomed Empress Xiao and Yang Zhengdao to the grassland, in order to continue the Sui Dynasty's Jiangshan Sheji, after Yang Zhengdao was made queen of Sui, she gathered the sui people on the grassland and tried every means to open up territory.
Princess Yicheng married Chuluo Khan less than a year ago, Chuluo Khan died of illness, Princess Yicheng remarried Touli Khan, and immediately urged Zhili Khan to become an enemy of Tang and avenge the Sui Dynasty. However, the situation in the Central Plains suddenly changed, and Li Yuan showed his fists and feet in the chaotic world, and soon became the overlord of the Central Plains. The rise of Li Tang made Princess Yicheng even more indignant, and she repeatedly instigated the Khan of Jieli to go south and attacked many times.
Li Yuan, who had just pacified the world, faced with the repeated invasions of the Eastern Turks, thinking of valuing peace, sent a large number of gifts to the Khan of Jieli many times, but the Eastern Turks still insisted on going their own way and constantly creating border troubles.
All this is silently manipulated by Princess Yicheng behind her back, Empress Xiao is very unsupportive of Princess Yicheng's move, the demise of the Sui Dynasty is ultimately a problem in the Sui Emperor, a big country, why the people complain about the heavens, why the rebel army is surging up, this is all caused by the inaction of the Sui Emperor, the king, the demise of the Sui Dynasty is only a matter of time, the rise of Li Tang is not accidental, it is the inevitability of historical change.
Empress Xiao tried to persuade her, but Princess Yicheng did not pay attention to it at all, but continued to incite the deterioration of relations between the Eastern Turks and Li Tang. Li Tang was overwhelmed by the problem of border troubles for many years, and finally Li Shimin sent Li Jing to solve the problem of border troubles with the Eastern Turks.
After Li Jing led his army into the Eastern Turks, Princess Yicheng preferred to die rather than surrender, and immediately cried out for her life. Princess Yicheng, as the daughter of the Sui Dynasty, married to the Eastern Turks, experienced four husbands, and finally fell into a pool of blood with a resolute face.
