Great Tang princess

Chapter 643
There is no tone of discussion in this notice from the imperial court, it is just a notice.

At the beginning, many people thought that it was impossible for Tubo to agree, but Li Yuechen didn't panic at all.

The current Tubo is not qualified to take the initiative to start a war with him. Not only does he not have it, but he must be careful to prevent himself from finding an excuse to fight him.

The battle many years ago had already made them aware of the terrifying gap between weapons.

They now know that there are high-tech equipment such as grenades, artillery and even airships here, and they are completely incapable of taking the initiative to start a war.

So in early December, Tubo reluctantly agreed to the court's request and released three thousand prisoners.

But by the way, he also made a request to increase the supply of some tea.

Li Yuechen agreed, anyway, there are also fried tea factories nowadays, so it doesn't matter if you provide them with more.

Besides, it's not that they don't give money, they still have to exchange more horses for tea.

Nowadays, the supply of war horses here has always been in short supply, especially now that the demand for horses among the new army is even greater, which can be regarded as a steady profit.

In mid-December, [-] released Han Chinese crossed the border, and Li Yuechen sent troops to meet them at the border.

At the same time, food and water are prepared, let them make up for their energy first.

Moreover, after crossing the border, tents have been temporarily set up for them to stay. At the same time, it is stipulated that those who have married and had children in Tubo, their spouses and children can also come back with them if they wish.

There is nothing Tubo can do about it. Even in a slave society, they generally do not deliberately break up the relationship between spouses, so the number of people who actually came back was about 500.

With so many people coming back, how to arrange it is also a big problem. You can't just leave it alone after they come back. They must have a living guarantee.

In the office, Li Shouli sat across from him, holding a teacup and said, "Auntie, nephew thinks it's better to hire a group of people from them to help take care of the vegetable fields in the army on weekdays..."

"no!"

Li Yuechen refused without even thinking about it: "It's hard to say whether there are spies among this group of people, and they can't be allowed to enter the army casually. What's more, everything in the army should be taken care of by the soldiers, remember! We wait They are soldiers, not nobles!"

"However, with so many people, how does my aunt plan to arrange it?" Li Shouli asked, "If they are sent back to Yizhou, the risk is not small."

"This is something you should consider. Don't forget, you are the highest official here. Don't ask me everything." Li Yuechen taught.

After all, these children are still a little too dependent on her. Although there has been obvious progress in the past six months, they still need to exercise more.

Hearing this sentence, Li Shouli thought carefully: "Then, why not transfer them to Qingdao."

"Oh? How do you say it?" Li Yuechen leaned back in his chair and asked.

Li Shouli replied: "As my aunt just said, there may be spies hidden among these people, and it is too risky to put them in Yizhou. It is better to transfer them to Qingdao. Now there is a shortage of people there, it is better to let them go to the shore, and then the army Lend money to build boats and houses for them, let them learn to fish..."

His idea is also simple, which is to use these people to fill the problem of underpopulation in Qingdao.

Then the army built houses and boats for them, and let them learn to go fishing. At the same time, part of the fish they caught was handed over to the army as a debt repayment.

Ten years later, the debts will be settled, and they will be given household registration as husbands, and then they will be allowed to develop freely.

Even if there are some spies from Tubo, it doesn't matter, anyway, Tubo will be gone after ten years, and these people can survive in this country for generations as good people.

After listening to his explanation, Li Yuechen couldn't help nodding his head slightly: "Isn't it possible for me to come up with a good solution myself? Why do you always rely on me?"

She smiled with relief, as if her child had finally grown up.

In fact, she really thought so. She had no children, so her brother's children were naturally her own.

Moreover, aunts in this era are called aunts. Since they carry an alphabet, they have to fulfill a responsibility similar to that of a mother.

Li Shouli smiled a little embarrassedly: "Isn't it because I have been by my aunt's side for many years, and I have already gotten used to it."

"It's not like I can make the right choice for everything. Besides, the half-year period has come. From now on, it's up to you here!" Li Yuechen picked up his teacup and took a sip.

Although he said he already knew the result, when he heard it with his own ears, Li Shouli still couldn't help being a little sad: "After that day, my aunt is not around, and if there are difficulties, how can my nephew solve it?"

"Don't be afraid, just write to me if you have any problems in recent years." Li Yuechen smiled, "I won't quit all of a sudden, I have to watch everyone grow up."

"Yes! Nephew understands!" Li Shouli agreed.

……

The subsequent matters were simple. Li Shouli wrote a letter to the governor of Yizhou, Tang Zhen, asking him to arrange a carriage to send these thousands of people to Qingdao.

At the same time, I wrote a letter to the Li Shu sisters to inform them, and let them make arrangements at that time.

As for the money, of course it comes from the court.

After everything has been arranged properly, the time has come to December 23.

The day of the winter vacation is here, and it's time for Li Yuechen to take a group of children back.

Besides, this year, a plan to travel to the northern border has been made. The time is running short, and it is almost time to start.

The next morning, a grand awarding ceremony was held on the training ground.

The children's internship period has passed, and after half a year, the grassroots officers trained will also complete their commissioning and officially take over their positions.

In fact, they are a relatively lucky group of officers, because there are too few people now, so they can only be allowed to study for half a year and immediately take up their posts.

In the future, it is impossible to have such an opportunity again.

Shen Ke, Gao Shou, Chai Ergou and other soldiers with top overall qualities were awarded the rank of second lieutenant and became the first batch of officers on the border.

At the ceremony, everyone solemnly accepted the epaulets that Li Shouli wore for them, and started their professional military career in the future.

Li Yuechen, who was watching this scene from the side, suddenly felt a sense of accomplishment.

Starting today, the future of the country is no longer carried by one person alone, but by the entire royal family.

After these years of hard work, I finally changed the royal family and let the royal family embark on another path that is completely different from history.

History will start to turn here, but she can guarantee that the future history will be more magnificent than the original time and space!

……

December 24, evening.

In the night sky, some stars can be seen faintly. Fortunately, it didn't rain today, so the sight line is not bad.

Li Yuechen stood in the middle of the training ground, looking at the royal children who were saying goodbye to the soldiers, with a smile on his face.

After getting along for such a long time, there is almost no sense of estrangement between each other, but a touch of sadness.

Li Longji looked like a little adult, and patted Shen Ke on the shoulder: "Remember to study hard in the future, maybe one day in the future, you will have the opportunity to be transferred to this king again!"

Shen Ke in front of him looked at Li Longji, who was more bumped than himself, and nodded seriously, with tears in his eyes: "Yes, please rest assured, my lord! Your subordinates must study hard, and don't let your lord down!"

Shenke has been studying as Li Longji's deputy for the past six months, and the assassination incident of a spy some time ago has deepened the relationship between the two parties a lot.

On the other side, Li Chongrun was saying goodbye to his two cousins.

"In the future, there will only be two cousins ​​left here. If you are free in the future, don't forget to come back more often."

Li Shouyi couldn't help laughing and said, "We all have jobs now, and you are still students, so you should come to visit if you want to see!"

Li Xianhui next to him laughed out loud: "That's right! I can come here to escape the summer heat in the future."

Although Sichuan is in the south, the climate on the plateau is relatively cool. The only disadvantage is that the sun is too strong, and many people get tanned.

Even Li Xianhui, a little girl, has been black for a while. Although she is still relatively white in the eyes of ordinary people, she is indeed not as good as before.

The only thing that remains the same is Li Yuechen, who walks under the sun every day, and it seems that there is almost no change.

The others are also saying their goodbyes, telling their memories of the past six months and their future prospects.

Not long after Xu time passed, the airship had already appeared on the horizon, gradually zooming in on the field of vision.

As the airship gradually landed, everyone also arranged their salutes and entered the cabin.

The airship will not stop here today. Taking advantage of the good weather, they will take off overnight and return to the Eastern Capital. Everyone will rest on the airship tonight.

After boarding the airship, it took off directly. After the flight was stable in the sky, the soldiers in the cockpit came out: "Your Highness will take all the nobles to rest first. It is estimated that we will arrive at the God Capital tomorrow at Mao."

Li Yuechen agreed and let the children go to rest first.

There are dormitories and bunk beds on the airship, just to prevent this kind of late-night flight from happening.

……

The next morning, just as the sun jumped out of the horizon, an airship appeared in the sky of Dongdu.

Shangguan Wan'er, who received the news, set off from the Princess Mansion in advance and took a carriage to Xuanwu Gate to meet her.

When they arrived at Xuanwu Gate, the carriages sent by Li Xian and others to pick up the children had almost arrived.

Now because of the special circumstances, Li Xian and the others generally wouldn't leave their mansions when they were free. Even if the children came back, they would send a carriage to pick them up.

After the airship landed, the children ran out first, moving their bodies in the square, and Li Yuechen walked out slowly behind.

Looking up, Shangguan Wan'er, who was standing on the city wall, was smiling and waving to her. She didn't see her mother, maybe she was just getting up and still washing up.

Li Yuechen also waved his hand, and then let the children go back first, while he entered the palace to see his mother first.

Entering the palace, Shangguan Wan'er ran down from the city wall: "Your Highness is back."

"It's almost time to come back after half a year as agreed." Li Yuechen smiled, squeezed her palm, and then went to Jixian Temple with her side by side.

Entering the hall, I saw that my mother had finished washing and was sitting at the table waiting.

"Chen'er is back, haven't you had breakfast yet?" Wu Zetian smiled slightly.

"Well, it's not waiting to come back to eat with A Niang." Li Yuechen came to sit beside her with a smile.

Mother didn't change much, her complexion was still good, but her white hair increased a lot, and the crow's feet around her eyes became heavier.

The mother and daughter chatted while eating, and talked about various things in the past six months, which made Wu Zetian feel quite interesting.

"Speaking of which, Auntie, I'm going to the northern border to celebrate the New Year this year, are you ready?" Li Yuechen asked.

"It doesn't matter if you are a mother. They can't wait for Xianer these days." Wu Zetian replied with a smile.

Li Yuechen nodded: "Don't worry, we will leave in two days!"

The itinerary this time is quite intensive, Li Yuechen plans to go there immediately after a few days of rest.

Liu Huang's side has already made preparations in advance. It is impossible for the emperor to inspect in advance without prior notice.

After all, all aspects of clothing, food, housing, and transportation must be taken care of, otherwise the emperor will be unhappy, and his subordinates will not be happy either.

……

Li Yuechen rested in Dongdu for two days, and then directly boarded the airship with his whole family and headed to the northern border.

It takes about twelve hours to fly there, so everyone set off after lunch on December 26.

Play cards and chat on the airship in the afternoon, and sleep on the airship at night.

Since there are poker and mahjong now, the time on the airship is not difficult.

Not to mention that for the ancients, even just sitting by the window and looking at the scenery below is a special enjoyment.

For example, Wei Lian'er was sitting by the window with Li Xian's other concubines, chatting and observing the scenery outside.

Looking at the ground from this height, it is almost impossible to see anything clearly, but they still had a lot of fun discussing it.

On the contrary, Li Chongrun and his children were all playing poker or chatting with their father, and they were not interested in the scenery outside the window at all.

Compared with these, they were obviously looking forward to going skiing again, and even prepared their respective equipment in advance.

To say that the only bad thing is that the current airship does not have a sealed pressurization system, so the temperature is the same as that of the outside, and the further north it gets, the colder it gets.

On the airship, strenuous exercise or open fire is not allowed, so everyone is wrapped very thickly, like rice dumplings.

When I woke up the next morning and looked out the window, my eyes were already white.

Li Yuechen looked out the window, and it happened that he had just passed the Changbai Mountains. Looking at it from this angle, it felt like looking at a satellite map again.

All of a sudden, there was a feeling of nostalgia in my heart.

When noon passed, when Li Yuechen stood in the cockpit and looked down through the binoculars, there was already an extremely obvious field within the white snow in his sight.

It was a concrete training ground, and the soldiers had already cleared the snow with brooms, revealing most of the training ground.

At this time, the soldiers next to him also said: "Your Highness, please go back and sit down, we are about to land."

　There is only one update today...
