Chapter 917, said sickness

Li Shimin thought for a while and said: "Bring back the bones of the soldiers from the Central Plains?"

Li Zheng nodded and said: "A legitimate reason, an idea that conforms to the people's will, and can make His Majesty face. The blood debt of the soldiers of the Central Plains left in Goguryeo must be returned."

Speaking of this, Li Shimin smiled relievedly, "You still say you don't understand political affairs?"

Li Zheng took a sip of tea in frustration.

Li Shimin said again: "You gave me such a good idea, why are you still frowning?"

Li Zheng looked up at the sky sadly and said, "It's nothing."

After eating a piece of barbecue, Li Shimin stood up and said: "Your method of barbecue is really unique, I will try it when I go back, stay here, don't send it away."

After speaking, Li Shimin left in dismay.

Du Hu sat aside and said: "Your Majesty seems to be very busy recently, and the number of visits to Jingyang has decreased."

Li Zheng frowned and said, "Do you think I should be sick?"

"Get ill?"

Du Hu asked curiously: "Why did the Chang'an order make such a statement? Is it because you are not feeling well?"

Looking at the scenery in the village, Li Zheng said in a low voice, "I may be getting sick recently."

Du Hu looked at Li Zheng with a puzzled expression, then turned to think about the past, and understood something.

A few days later, news spread that Li Zheng was seriously ill and unable to see guests.

Gao Yang has been doing some chores in Zhongshu Province recently, and he also asks those ministers for advice on weekdays.

Li Shimin saw all these things, but he didn't expose them.

Gao Yang helped Li Shimin organize the memorial and said: "Father, I heard that Li Zheng is ill."

"sick?"

"Well, I heard that he is seriously ill, and he won't be able to see guests for a long time."

Li Shimin smiled coldly, "Who did you listen to?"

Gao Yang hugged a pile of memorials and said, "It's being circulated outside."

Li Shimin practiced his brushwork and said, "Did your sister say it?"

Gao Yang shook his head vigorously, "Sister Huang hasn't mentioned this matter in her letters these days."

The smile on Li Shimin's face grew stronger, and he continued to practice calligraphy calmly while swinging his sleeves.

Jingyang
Of course Li Zheng wasn't really sick, he was grilling chicken wings with Li Tai and Li Zhi at the moment.

Li Tai sprinkled some chili peppers on the chicken wings and said, "Li Zheng, you don't need to complain if you don't want to see guests."

Li Zhi ate a roasted chicken wing and said: "In fact, there are not many people who come to see the teacher on weekdays. If there is a guest, it can only be the father."

A gust of cold autumn wind blew by, Li Tai put away his clothes, "How come it's getting cold before it's winter."

Li Lizhi took Xu Hui to a residence in the village.

This is Wang Qiaoer's residence.

There are many small houses of this kind in the village, and many of the houses built at the beginning are still empty.

The house is small, but everything needed for daily living is complete.

Wang Qiaoer was decorating her house, when she saw Li Lizhi coming, she hurriedly saluted, "The daughter of the people has seen Her Royal Highness."

Li Lizhi helped Wang Qiaoer up and said, "I have wronged you, I want to live here."

Wang Qiaoer said in a low voice: "My little girl is already very grateful to have a place to live."

Li Lizhi asked Xu Hui to put some silks and satins aside, "The family is in such a mess now, I will definitely let you return to the spirit of the king's family master after it is settled down."

Wang Qiaoer was silent and bowed deeply.

Everything depends on the situation. The current situation of the five surnames is still unclear, and I don't know what the other families will do.

Since the head of the Wang family handed over Taiyuan, the daughter and son of the Wang family must also be protected.

In terms of safe places, Jingyang is the best.

Wang Qiaoer said in a low voice: "My younger brother has been in Chang'an now, and when everything is settled, he must come to thank the son-in-law and the princess in person."

Li Lizhi smiled relievedly, "That's not necessary, I'm just obeying my mother's order to take care of you."

Li Zheng said that he no longer sees guests due to illness, and stays behind closed doors.

Li Shimin began to plan for the Eastern Expedition. It is not enough for the emperor to reopen the Eastern Expedition, but the voice and hearts of the people are needed.

This is the key to starting the Eastern Expedition.

Li Shimin was very experienced in using these methods. After he figured out his ideas, let the voices spread in the public, and use such voices to coerce those veterans who opposed the Eastern Expedition.

As long as the voices and hearts of the people rise, it is only a matter of time before the Eastern Expedition begins.

It has only been ten years since Zhenguan, and Li Shimin is also in his prime, so he can afford to wait.

The last month of autumn passed in a blink of an eye, and it was already winter.

Li Zheng received another letter from Daniel.

Standing by his small clay stove, Li Zheng was reading Daniel's letter, which said that Mou had completely taken over the silver mining business.

Mou's adopted sons gradually began to completely take over the weapons business after several years of training.

With Movo as the middleman, you only need to send a message to arrange the order to be sent to Jingyang, and then Xu Jingzong will hand it over to Wang Ding. The transportation channel will be arranged by Wang Ding.

Everything can still proceed in an orderly manner.

Although the winter in Guanzhong is cold, it is bearable.

The weather in the Tubo Plateau is extremely cold.

Su Dingfang rode a horse into the plateau of Tubo, followed by more than 1 soldiers, and the journey was very difficult.

Altitude sickness makes many people uncomfortable, and the food in the army here is not cooked at all.

Su Dingfang took a mouthful of half-cooked millet, and when he swallowed it, it felt as hard as cutting his intestines.

While resting, Su Dingfang looked at the map in his hand, thinking about the marching route for tomorrow.

It will be night soon, and the team is also stationed here.

It's okay from the Hexi Corridor, but once you enter the plateau, the bone-chilling cold air makes many people uncomfortable.

Looking at the map with frowns, the soldiers came to the tent and reported: "General, there is a doctor from Guanzhong outside the camp asking to see him."

Hearing this, Su Dingfang asked suspiciously: "The doctor in Guanzhong? There is also a doctor in Guanzhong in this Tubo territory?"

The soldier bowed and said, "It is said that he is a doctor, and he can also cure strange diseases in our army."

"really?"

Su Dingfang said quickly: "Bring someone in to have a look."

"Here."

There was a lot of wind outside the camp.

Daniel walked into Su Dingfang's tent wearing a mink fur coat and the clothes of a Tubo nobleman.

Su Dingfang looked at the other party and said, "Are you the doctor who can treat diseases?"

Da Niu saluted and said: "I'm from Jingyang, and I've been in Tubo for some years, the general can call me Da Niu."

"Daniu? A Niu from Jingyang?" Su Dingfang asked suspiciously, "Are you that Li Zheng's disciple?"

Daniel smiled awkwardly, and a servant from the Western Regions who was waiting outside the tent walked into the tent with an iron pot, "General, you can't cook food or boil water in Tubo."

Su Dingfang nodded.

Daniel said again: "This is a pressure cooker I made myself. You can use this kind of pot to cook food and boil water."

Su Dingfang looked at the iron pot, "Really?"

Daniel nodded and said, "General, can you try?"

Su Dingfang said to the soldiers beside him, "Go and try."
