Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 501

Li Qinzai understood the truth, and what Li Zhi probably meant was that Tuyuhun would be disabled at most, and it would be so easy to die.

Oh, the emperor doesn't always speak human words.

"Jing Chu, do you know why I sent you as an envoy to Tuyuhun?"

"Because the minister looks easy to bully?"

"Not exactly..." After Li Zhigang finished speaking, he felt something was wrong, and immediately changed his words: "Not at all!"

"Jingchu will be 23 years old after the new year, right? 23 years old is already a weak year. In the past few years, Jingchu has made a lot of contributions to the Tang Dynasty. The county count is all earned by Jingchu himself. Zu Yin, among the rich and powerful children of Chang'an City, Jing Chu is the most promising one."

Li Qinzai was silent, he knew that Li Zhi had started, and his words had begun.

Li Zhi sighed, and said: "I will tell you about the current situation of the court. Most of the veterans in the court are left to me by the late Emperor Taizong. Xu Jingzong, Xu Yushi, Shangguanyi, Li Yifu, etc. are all old and cannot pass In a few years, they may return to their hometowns one after another."

"The courtiers of the middle-aged and younger generations are lacking a bit of enthusiasm, and it is difficult to take on important responsibilities. Generally speaking, the prosperity of my court has become extremely difficult to continue. I lack a courtier who can share my worries, has prestige and qualifications .”

"Among all the subjects, I value Jing Chu the most. Jing Chu has made so many achievements that I can't count them on one hand, but this is not enough. You still lack some qualifications, preferably those who have been born and died. With such Seniority, when I use Jing Chu again in the future, none of the courtiers would dare to object."

Li Zhi stared at him with burning eyes, and said earnestly: "So, this time is an opportunity for Jing Chu to accumulate enough qualifications! As long as this mission is successful and the strategic goal of Datang is achieved, after Jing Chu returns, I will Whether you are given the title of Marquis or promoted, it is what everyone expects and there is no dispute."

"At the same time, it also paves the way for your future visit to the province. Jingchu, a man's fame is not limited to writing articles with his hand, but should also be obtained from his horse. The credit of killing corpses in the sea of ​​​​blood is something that no one dares to deny and erase." , can Jing Chu understand my painstaking efforts?"

Li Qinzai smacked his lips, why don't you just add "understand applause", I will believe it, really.

With such outstanding eloquence, you should personally send an envoy to Tuyuhun.

The slander belongs to the slander, but Li Zhi has already made his words so clear, of course Li Qinzai understood what he meant.

Li Zhi is deliberately giving Li Qinzai the opportunity to accumulate qualifications.

There are old foxes and young foxes in the court, and no one is a fool. Li Zhi wants to reuse Li Qinzai, not just relying on Li Qinzai's miraculous inventions, he needs a solid and heavy achievement.

Only the merits of fighting with real swords and guns can silence the mouths of courtiers, and Li Zhi can promote Li Qinzai to the rank and rank without any scruples, allowing him to step into the center of power step by step.

Although Li Qinzai has no interest in the center of power, Li Zhi's kindness cannot be refused, and the emperor has given you the opportunity to reuse it. As a courtier, it is best not to be ignorant of flattery.

So Li Qinzai sighed helplessly, and said: "The minister leads the decree, and is willing to send an envoy to Tuyuhun for His Majesty."

Li Zhi smiled with satisfaction: "This is the Li Jingchu I value, and with your temperament, you will never suffer a loss when you go to Tuyuhun as an envoy."

Li Qinzai hesitated for a moment, and said: "If I am going to Tuyuhun as an envoy, I have to ask His Majesty for an order. I have to bring two hundred pieces, and one thousand soldiers from the government. Each soldier is equipped with a horse, a weapon, and a three-eyed blunderbuss. gunpowder pellets."

Li Zhi frowned: "You don't plan to use these more than a thousand soldiers to put down the war directly, do you? Jingchu, you are an envoy of the Tang Dynasty, so don't take risks."

"Your Majesty is worrying too much. I just cherish my life. I have brought enough troops to protect myself. I have no other intentions." Li Qinzai said sincerely.

Staring at his face, Li Zhi suddenly had doubts in his heart, is it really appropriate to let this guy be an envoy?

At the beginning, he dared to land on Wa Island with [-] soldiers and wiped out the Wa country. It can be said that he was very irritable. Now that he takes more than [-] soldiers as an envoy, it is hard to say whether he will cause any earth-shattering events.

Suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, Li Zhi asked, "Apart from that, what else does Jing Chu want?"

Li Qinzai thought for a while, and said: "Your Majesty, please give me the right to make decisions on the fly. The situation on the Tuyuhun battlefield is ever-changing, and I have the right to make decisions on the fly."

Li Healing felt uneasy, the troops were given, the firearms were given, the power was given, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, you are not allowed to take off?
Li Zhi immediately regretted it, and blurted out: "Jingchu, why don't you take your wife and children to travel around the mountains and rivers, and I will send someone else to Tuyuhun..."

Before the words were finished, Li Qinzai showed ecstasy, stood up and saluted: "Thank you, Your Majesty, I will leave!"

"Come back!" Li Zhi stroked his forehead and sighed: "As long as there is a slightly suitable person in the court, I will not release you, a scourge..."

"You are what Yuner is asking for. Go back and prepare quickly, and leave tomorrow. The military situation is urgent, so don't delay."

…………

After leaving the Tai Chi Palace, Li Qinzai looked downcast, and sighed step by step.

Just now in Anrendian, Li Qinzai found the feeling of being a social animal in his previous life again.

The boss was so affectionate, he drew a bunch of cakes for him, and promised a bunch of promotion and salary increase, but he foolishly believed it.

It was only when he walked out of the palace gate that he realized that he hadn't performed well just now, and he couldn't eat the big cakes, so it was okay to focus on some practical benefits. Why didn't he find the state of King Teng back then?

In a word, "add money", presumably Li Zhi has no choice but to give money honestly, right?

So, Li Zhi's eloquence is so good, did he accidentally get brainwashed?

Outside the gate of the palace, Liu Asi, Lao Wei and other trilogy saw Li Qinzai coming out, and rushed forward one after another.

Li Qinzai looked around with a serious expression, looked around at all the parts, and said slowly: "Your Majesty has an order to send me to Tuyuhun. This trip is extremely dangerous. Although it won't be close to death, five deaths and five lives are almost the same."

"Brothers are all veterans of the Duke's Mansion. I don't want to trick you. If anyone doesn't want to go with me, step forward and I will arrange other errands for you."

After Li Qinzai finished speaking, Baiyu remained motionless, but a fierce fighting spirit suddenly filled the air.

Li Qinzai sighed: "Are you all stupid? Going to Tuyuhun is very dangerous. I have been pushing for a long time before His Majesty. Are you afraid of losing your life?"

Liu Asi said emphatically: "I would like to follow Wu Shaolang through life and death, as long as my brothers have breath, I swear that Wu Shaolang will be safe!"

All the songs echoed with awe-inspiring faces.

Old Wei chuckled, showing his familiar yellow teeth: "It's a life-and-death job. It's really inappropriate for Wu Shaolang to be without our old Wei. I have nothing to say. I have to accompany Wu Shaolang for a while."
