Chapter 442
Empress Changsun let out a long sigh and said in a low voice to the maids beside her: "Distribute these cotton cloths to the concubines in each palace, and say it is the cloth presented by Li Zhengjin in Jingyang."

It was fine to leave enough for the Lizheng Palace, Li Lizhi could see clearly that the queen mother was still willing to help Li Zheng in her heart.

Noticing her daughter's expression, Empress Changsun also let out a long sigh, her daughter is too old to keep.

Empress Changsun beckoned Li Zhi to come closer and asked, "Young slave, how is Li Zheng's health recently?"

Li Zhi thought about it and said, "Teacher's health is very good, and he moved a lot of food a few days ago."

Only then did Empress Changsun nod her head in reassurance.

The construction of the Daming Palace was opposed by the ministers again. Li Shimin was very upset, so he had to put this matter aside.

There are some things that I can't figure out. Li is building a large-scale construction project in Jingyang, but the officials don't know what to say.

When I built the Daming Palace, I was opposed by the officials.

Li Shimin put down the memorial in his hand and picked up the 36 tricks sent by Li Ji.

The binding method of this book is unique to Jingyang.

Turning to a page and looking at the content above, Li Shimin read it for a while before realizing that he had been reading it for an hour.

These 36 tactics expound various art of war, and they are like small stories one by one.

It's really interesting that someone will tell the art of war as a story.

What interests Li Shimin the most is the empty city plan among the 36 plans.

"Wang Ding."

"The old slave is here."

Li Shimin said in a low voice: "Let the Hongwen Museum go and find out if Zhuge Kongming and Sima Yi really had an empty city plan back then."

"Here."

Although they are all small stories, they still look very intriguing.

A large area of ​​seedlings in the paddy field has grown, and the rainiest season in Chang'an is coming to an end.

So far, the eight years of Zhenguan have been smooth, and it can be regarded as Antai.

When June came, many people in Chang'an became nervous.

Li Zheng predicted whether the turnaround of Longyou Dilong in June of the eighth year of Zhenguan would happen.

Li Shimin sat in the Ganlu Hall and listened to Wang Ding's report, "Did the earth dragon in Longyou turn around and not happen?"

Wang Ding replied in a low voice: "It's true that it hasn't happened yet. Many people have been sent to stay in Longyou to monitor the situation in Longyou. Once there is something about Dilong turning around, he will report it immediately."

Qin Tianjian, Yuan Tiangang has been sitting cross-legged in Qin Tianjian these days and cannot retreat.

It seemed that everyone was asking about Longyou's situation.

Was it really predicted by Li Zheng?

Cui Lin, the head of the Cui family, has been staying in Chang'an. Now what he is worried about is when Li Zheng will die or whether the Longyou earthquake will really happen.

Cheng Yaojin was also sitting in his own courtyard, listening to the report from his family servants, "The area around Longyou is calm and there is no sign of the earth dragon turning over."

Everyone was paying attention to the Longyou area. A group of soldiers and horses came from Yanmen Pass, and a military report was immediately passed to the court.

The [-] troops of the Western Turks attacked the Eastern Turks.

As soon as the news came out, the ministers of the DPRK and China were in an uproar.

The Western Turks, which were already at war with Tubo, are now at war with the Eastern Turks.

The East Turkic envoy, who was sent by Zhi Shisili, immediately went to the palace to ask Li Shimin, the Heavenly Khan, for help.

Ashina of Xue Yantuo was very excited.

Ashina was originally the orthodox royal blood of Eastern Turks.

It was the stubbornness that robbed him of the position of Eastern Turkic Khan.

Ashina was about to walk out of the posthouse when he bumped into Xu Jingzong who was waiting at the gate of the posthouse.

"The envoy stays." Xu Jingzong said with a smile.

Ashina said vigilantly, "What are you going to do?"

Xu Jingzong glanced at the bustling Zhuque Street, and whispered, "Are you planning to go back to Xue Yantuo now?"

"What do you want to say?" Ashina's expression remained vigilant.

Xu Jingzong came to Ashina and whispered: "Now the East Turks are asking for help from the Tang Dynasty. If the Tang Dynasty sends troops to help the East Turks, your plan to restore the East Turks will fail."

Ashina understood Xu Jingzong's words and asked, "Is this what Li Zheng asked you to tell me?"

Xu Jingzong nodded.

Ashina said: "Li Zheng is about to die, and you are still helping Li Zheng."

"That's how people's hearts are, they know what's going on."

"Knowing the cold and warm, what a good sentence to know the cold and warm." Ashina said: "Sometimes I really envy your words in the Central Plains."

"Unfortunately, you are not from the Central Plains."

"Yes, it's a pity that I'm not from the Central Plains. I like your Central Plains books very much."

"It is said that Songtsan Gampo also likes books from the Central Plains."

"Will Li Zheng still persuade me to buy food this time?"

Xu Jingzong shook his head and said: "This time it is for the sake of Xue Yantuo. Now that the Western Turks are attacking the Eastern Turks, the Eastern Turks are the first to enshrine His Majesty as the Heavenly Khan."

Ashina looked nervous, "You mean His Majesty Tang will send troops to support Zhi Shili?"

Xu Jingzong nodded and said: "However, His Majesty has not yet decided to rush to the East Turks, but once the Tang Dynasty sends troops to support the East Turks, your hope of becoming a Khan in the East Turks will surely be shattered. After so many years of swallowing your anger, okay? The hope that was easy to see has been dashed again."

Seeing that Ashina was silent, Xu Jingzong continued: "Our Chang'an Order recommends you stay in Chang'an, no matter whether it is killing people or what means, as long as the Tang Dynasty does not plan to send troops, the Eastern Turks will definitely be in chaos, and you will be there..."

"Don't tell me, I'm not from the Central Plains, let alone a courtier of His Majesty the Tang Dynasty. How can I make His Majesty the Tang not send troops to help the Eastern Turks?"

"Our Chang'an Order pays attention to human effort. If you don't try it, how will you know? Besides, there may be some people in the court who oppose sending troops to support this time."

Ashina asked suspiciously: "In Li Zheng's words, is it that man can conquer heaven?"

Xu Jingzong cupped his hands and said: "If you miss some opportunities, there will be no more. You don't want to stay in the barren Xue Yantuo for the rest of your life, do you still dream of your father Khan's generation in your dreams? Ashina's generation has come to you In your hand, the Turkic royal court belongs to someone else, are you willing? Don't you have nightmares when you sleep?"

There was gradually hatred in Ashina's eyes.

It seemed that the talk was almost over, Xu Jingzong said: "I'm taking my leave, you can think about it yourself."

Leaving Ashina standing where he was, Xu Jingzong turned and left.

Battle reports came in for several days in a row. The West Turks attacked the East Turks with great momentum, and captured hundreds of hectares of pastures in the East Turks.

The battle reports from Tubo also kept coming. Songtsan Gampo and Lu Dongzan led [-] Tubo soldiers and horses, and entered the Western Turks again.

Something strange appeared immediately. The Western Turks seemed to handle the war between the two sides with ease, as if they knew the art of war, and there seemed to be an expert pointing them out.
