Datang Nongwang

Chapter 701

Wang Li came to Lizhuang to tell him the news about Li Chongyuan.

Li Chongyuan naturally understood why Li Shimin wanted to stay in Chang'an for the time being.

The Tubo envoys are coming to Chang'an.

As for Tubo sending envoys to Chang'an, it must be because of Tubo Zanpu's request to invite Princess Shang.

otherwise.

Tubo would not have to spend so much effort to send envoys to Chang'an.

Li Chongyuan used to accuse Li Shimin loudly in the court hall, and he also accused Li Shimin in front of so many officials.

Li Shimin didn't punish Li Chongyuan, instead he woke him up by being scolded by Li Chongyuan.

Cursing is waking up.

But there are still some voices in the DPRK, trying their best to promote the marriage of the princess to Tubo.

Although Li Chongyuan seldom went to the court, he only went once during the big court meeting. Li Shimin didn't know about the other small court meetings, so he chose not to go.

And some court officials above the court always find various excuses to push the princess to marry Tubo.

Although Fang Xuanling didn't come forward to mention it, Li Chongyuan could guess with his toes that this matter must be caused by Fang Xuanling behind the scenes.

For the past two months.

Li Daozong and Li Xueyan never came to Lizhuang to look for Li Chongyuan.

Even if he came to thank him in person, he had never done it before, but on the day of Li Chongyuan's coronation ceremony, he expressed his gratitude to the old lady from Li Daozong's family.

As for why he didn't ask Li Chongyuan to thank him, it must be because Li Chongyuan is a junior, and Li Daozong is also right to the old lady.

And Li Xueyan, the cousin, had never appeared in front of Li Chongyuan.

Maybe it's because of the rumors about Chang'an City, or rumors.

In short, Li Xueyan and Li Chongyuan have never met.

But since Wang Li came to Li Zhuang today and told him that Li Chongyuan's Tubo envoy was coming to Chang'an, Li Chongyuan could think of the reason behind it.

Li Daozong probably knew that Tubo would send envoys to Chang'an again.

Therefore, up to now, Li Daozong has only thanked the old lady, but he has not found him, Li Chongyuan. It is estimated that the matter of marrying the princess to Tubo is not over yet.

Therefore.

Li Daozong chose to do this, he didn't even bring Li Xueyan to thank him Li Chongyuan.

At this moment, Li Chongyuan is rapidly thinking about the history he learned in his previous life.

However, Li Chongyuan's history is sloppy, and he doesn't know who Tubo will send to Chang'an to ask for marriage again.

Li Chongyuan only knew that the princess married to Tubo in the Tang Dynasty was Princess Wencheng, but she was not the daughter of the royal family, but the daughter of Li Daozong of the Zong family.

As for the process, Li Chongyuan is really not too clear.

Since he was not clear, Li Chongyuan naturally wanted to ask Wang Li, "Director Wang, this time the Tubo sent an envoy to our Tang Dynasty, who is it? Is it because I killed the Tubo envoy last time?" After Tubo got the news, did they send an envoy?"

"It's not what you think. Although Nasa Duo has been dead for two months, the news cannot be delivered to Tubo so quickly. This time Tubo sent envoys to my Tang Dynasty, it was actually agreed a long time ago. As for who it is, this person is Tubo's big talk, Lu Dongzan. However, you have to be careful about the Tubo envoy coming to our Tang Dynasty, after all, you killed a Tubo envoy. At that time, that Lu Dongzan may target you." Wang Li replied.

When Wang Liyi said the name of Lu Dongzan.

There was a sudden bang in Li Chongyuan's head.

Lu Dong praised.

Li Chongyuan didn't need to know about other people in Tubo, but he had to know something about Lu Dongzan, or the family Lu Dongzan belonged to.

Li Chongyuan vaguely remembered it.

After the death of Tubo Zanpu Songtsen Gampo, Lu Dongzan took charge of the government and began to embezzle the territory of the Tang Kingdom.

And it was because of Lu Dongzan.

It prompted the princess of the Tang Dynasty to marry to Tubo. At the same time, it was also because of this person that he embezzled a large area of ​​the Tang Kingdom's land and territory.

But as soon as Wang Li mentioned the big comment on Lu Dongzan, Li Chongyuan's eyes began to be filled with displeasure.

In his previous life, Li Chongyuan had no chance to meet this person.

Now, there is such a good opportunity.

The displeasure on Li Chongyuan's face was revealed. After Wang Li took a look, he was very puzzled and curious, "Li Junwang, do you know this person? As far as I know, Li Junwang, you have never been to Tubo, and this The Tubo Dalun Lu Dongzan has never been to my Tang Dynasty. Judging from the expression on your face, Li Junwang, it seems that you don't like this Tubo Dalun Lu Dongzan very much."

"Hehe, how could I know him, but I have heard something about this person. According to what I heard, this person was born in the south of the Tubo Mountains, and he is a Tubo nobleman. Moreover, I also heard that the Tubo Zanpu sent troops to attack Nibora several times, and he was there. Moreover, in order to win Nibora into his own hands, Tubo Zanpu did not hesitate to send troops to attack Nibora several times, and then used the name of the princess who married Nibro to strengthen The relationship between Tubo and Niboluo. Now, Tubo is using the same method to deal with my Tang Dynasty, and Director Wang should understand the meaning of this." Li Chongyuan said with a sneer.

Lu Dongzan, Li Chongyuan must not know each other.

But for this person, apart from being unhappy, Li Chongyuan wanted to kill him more.

As long as this person dies, it is probably an unknown if Tubo wants to exert its strength.

If after Lu Dongzan's death, the trend of Tubo's external expansion will inevitably slow down, and it may not necessarily stop abruptly.

After Wang Li heard this, his eyes became more curious, "How did Junwang Li know this news? Why have I never heard of it?"

"How did the news come from? Don't ask Mr. Wang. In short, this news is absolutely reliable. If Mr. Wang doesn't believe it, you can ask someone to ask some people from other countries. It is best to find some people who have intersected with Tubo. Maybe you can find out." Know more." Naturally, Li Chongyuan would not say the source of these news.

Could it be that Li Chongyuan already knew about it?Or was it in a dream?
Wang Li's face became a little more nervous, and then he cupped his hands, "Jun Wang Li, the Holy Majesty wants you to go back to Chang'an and wait for the Tubo envoy. I will definitely tell the Holy Majesty what you said just now. And I will also send people to inquire, I will go back to the palace to report to the Holy One."

"It's easy to go, I won't send it off. Tomorrow I will definitely return to Chang'an according to the words of the Holy One." Li Chongyuan knew that what he said made Wang Li know that things were a little tricky.

The news from Tubo is basically closed.

after all.

Tubo once launched a war against Tang State Songzhou.

Then, Tubo Zanpu sent envoys to propose marriage.

Although it was rejected by Li Shimin, after a few years, it came again.

And Tubo once used this method to treat Nibhara.

It can be seen that such a method, such a method, is used to deal with Tang Guo. If Li Shimin listens to it, it is absolutely impossible to tolerate it.

to this end.

When Wang Li heard what Li Chongyuan said, he left Lizhuang directly and returned to Chang'an to return to his command.

As for how Li Shimin will act after learning the news, or what choice he will make, Li Chongyuan can't guess, and he doesn't know what Li Shimin will do in the end.

Li Chongyuan, who looked thoughtful, returned to the small courtyard.

"Yuan'er, you look so bad, what happened?" Seeing Li Chongyuan's thoughtful expression, Li Yuan asked aloud.

Li Chongyuan smiled, and changed the expression on his face: "It's nothing, but Wang Li came to say that Tubo sent envoys to Tang Dynasty."

"It turned out to be this matter. Why, that Nizi didn't want you to deal with the Tubo people, did he? But that's fine too. You can deal with these Tubo people. If something goes wrong, let the ministers deal with it. In this way, it will also let you know how to be an official." Li Yuan didn't care much.

Li Yuan's original intention was to let Li Chongyuan better understand how to be an official.

Instead of being like Li Chongyuan in the past, he can come however he wants.

In Li Yuan's heart.

Li Chongyuan is capable, pure in mind, kind-hearted, and has the people in his heart, doing things for the people, planning for the people's livelihood and so on.

otherwise.

At the time of Li Chongyuan's crowning ceremony, Li Yuan would not give him a word of kindness for Li Chongyuan.

As for what official position Li Yuan hoped Li Chongyuan would achieve.

Li Yuan once said that Li Chongyuan can be a great farmer.

Although the Da Sinong is gone now, he is still one of the three gongs and nine ministers.

Bit high weight.

but.

In Li Chongyuan's heart, he never thought about being a great Sinonong, nor did he think about being a minister of the Sinong Temple.

At present, he only wants to build the boat, and then go to the other side of the ocean to find the seeds of various crops.

After I came back, I want to cultivate and then promote, so that people all over the world have food in their stomachs, more food in their bowls, more snacks in their children's mouths, etc.

Li Chongyuan has never thought about the extent to which officials can do it.

Even Li Chongyuan in the past always believed that he was not suitable to be an official, nor did he want to be an official.

If it weren't for the bumps and bumps along the way in the past few years, Li Chongyuan would have thrown away the official position on his head.

But the words came back again.

There is no official position on his head, and he seems to be a bit stretched when he does anything, and he has no energy, but he is always disturbed by various characters who appear.

and so.

The current Li Chongyuan had no choice but to work hard to climb up.

The higher the official position, the higher the title.

Now he is already a senior member of the fifth rank, although he is only a state recorder to join the army, and he has been appointed as the commander of the capital.

If you want to climb up again, you are going for the governor of a state.

Or even a Beijing official.

As for the title, a king of Xisha County will certainly not be able to satisfy Li Chongyuan.

Although the prince of the county king is of the same rank as the prince and heir king, Li Chongyuan still wants to climb another rank, the second king.

But Li Chongyuan knew it.

The two-character king is rare.

Without solid credit, don't even think about touching this two-character king.

It's like Li Daozong, who was originally the king of Rencheng, but he didn't expect that because of some things, he directly became the king of Jiangxia County.

Li Chongyuan understands Li Yuan's high hopes for him.

But it is not how to express their views.

The next morning.

After asking Li Yuan for instructions, Li Chongyuan got into the carriage and returned to Chang'an.

After returning to Chang'an, Li Chongyuan first went back to his home to greet the old lady, and then entered the palace.

In a certain hall.

Li Shimin looked at Li Chongyuan in front of him while dealing with the government affairs at hand, "You wait first, the Tubo envoy will arrive in Chang'an the day after tomorrow. After the Tubo envoy arrives in Chang'an, I will send me to inform you."

"Your Majesty, the purpose of Tubo's sending of envoys to Tang Dynasty this time is definitely not just to ask for Princess Shang's affairs. There must be a conspiracy behind it. Moreover, Nalu Dongzan is extremely difficult to deal with. The minister speculates that it is very possible that Tubo launched the war against Songzhou in the Tang Dynasty, and Tubo Zanpu adopted this person's opinion. Therefore, what I mean, the Holy Majesty had better keep him." Li Chongyuan's stay, of course, is Killed him, but really left Lu Dongzan in Chang'an.

Li Shimin stopped the government affairs at hand, looked at Li Chongyuan, and frowned, "I will send someone to investigate the things you said. As for keeping Nalu Dongzan, this matter is not as simple as you think. Alright, You go back first."

Li Chongyuan sighed, nodded and left the palace.

After returning to his residence, Li Chongyuan sat in the backyard, thinking about how to deal with Lu Dongzan.

But no matter how I thought about it, I didn't come up with a good idea.

"Forget it, forget it. Let's talk when we come, take one step at a time. If Lu Dongzan dares to raise the matter of begging Princess Shang again in the court, I must beat him on the spot. I will Look at how thick-skinned Lu Dongzan really is. If it’s not possible, one day he will return to Tubo and intercept him halfway.” Li Chongyuan couldn’t think of a good idea, but he wanted to get rid of Lu Dongzan. , that is more and more certain.

Two days later.

Li Shimin sent people from the Ministry of Rites to go ten miles west of Chang'an to welcome Lu Dongzan.

At the same time, let Wang Li come to inform Li Chongyuan, "Jun Wang Li, why don't you also go to meet the Tubo envoy?"

"What face does he have, let me be a county king to meet him? Manager Wang, you are slapping me in the face." Li Chongyuan seemed to be furious when he heard Wang Li's words.

Wang Li smiled and said: "That's not what I mean, what I mean is that you, Jun Wang Li, don't like Na Lu Dongzan so much, why don't you go and scold him to make you feel better."

"Hey, what you said really reminded me. Xingba, come here. After a while, you take people outside the city, do this first. Then this, um, let's do this." After hearing the words, Li Chongyuan had an extra thought in his mind, Xingba was called.

After Xingba heard this, he had a bitter face.

But no matter how hard it is, he will follow Li Chongyuan's orders.

noon.

Lu Dongzan, who came all the way from Tubo, arrived outside the west gate of Chang'an City under the welcome of officials from the Ministry of Rites.

After Lu Dongzan looked at the tall and majestic Chang'an City, he expressed envy and expectation, "The capital city of the Tang Dynasty is really the best city in the world. It is a kind of enjoyment to live in such a city. Everyone yearns so much for Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Kingdom."

"That's right, Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Kingdom, is really the largest and most magnificent capital I have ever seen. I don't know if this city can withstand an attack by a million-strong army." The deputy envoy of Tubo, Sang Buza, said in a low voice.
