Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 1009 Envoy Abyss Pure Land

Hearing about Liaocheng, Li Shimin grabbed the file and looked through it.

According to Wenyue Pavilion's analysis, the city lord of Liao City has a very good relationship with the Tang frontier army in the past two years, and the transactions of leather goods, medicinal materials, and grains have made him huge profits every year.

The city lord hinted more than once that even if the Tang army came to the city, he and his subordinates would not fight the Tang army.

Li Shimin asked Liu Mu: "If you don't fight, it means surrender. What do you think?"

Liu Mu replied: "I think the chances of surrender in Jian'an City are higher. According to the plan of the Ministry of War, there is no Goguryeo to the north of Maoshan. There is no war in Jiangbei."

"Brother Rong, let me think about it." Li Shimin is a master strategist, and he knew the plan of the Ministry of War at that time.

Now that Yuan Pure Land is coming to Chang'an, Li Shimin naturally has to consider how to maximize Datang's interests.

Why did Yuan Pure Land come to Chang'an?

The people sent by Wenyue Pavilion must not be able to look inside the heads of the Yuan family. What they reported is the result of speculation.

After all, they are allies, and there is still a large-scale welcoming ceremony for Yuan Pure Land to come to Chang'an.

He was greeted by a fourth-rank official from the Ministry of Officials, and then he was given a dust-cleaning banquet before being sent to the guest house.

Yuan Jingtu didn't even change his clothes after entering the guest house, and immediately told the people around him: "Go and find some officials stationed in Chang'an, and then secretly contact our dark nails."

There were 29 officials sent by Goguryeo to Chang'an for a long time. Among them, there were seven high-ranking noble officials. Yuan Pure Land summoned them, but only five came.

"What about the other two?"

The surname of Cui Donglin, the resident official of Goguryeo Chang'an in Lianqiang, was Cui Donglin.

Hearing Yuan Pure Land's question, Cui Donglin stepped forward and replied:
"One person fought with the Persians on a boat in Qujiang Pond during the New Year, and both fell into the water and died. The other person participated in a polo match in Chang'an East City two months ago, and was trampled to death after accidentally falling off his horse. Report the official paperwork, and request to send someone over to fill their positions."

After listening to the remarks of the little noble official stationed in Chang'an, Yuan Jingtu said in his heart that he didn't know about this matter, and he had never asked about the stationed officials.

It seems that the officials in Wangcheng have neglected their duties.

Yuan Jingtu said: "The matter of the transfer is not under the control of the official. I just asked you to come here to ask, is there any special information or major events in Chang'an?"

"Yes, I will record all the newspapers in Chang'an, the government announcements of Chang'an Chengdong City, and people's inquiries about politics every month, and then send people back. Here are the archives of all newspapers, as well as excerpts of important events. Classification."

Cui Donglin signaled the officials beside him to lift up the rattan box.

One rattan box contains very neatly bound newspaper clippings, and the other contains official documents of various events written by Cui Donglin and other Goguryeo officials, as well as various official documents.

Looking at the two full Fujibox-buchi pure lands, he felt a headache. There were so many that he had to check carefully, and he didn't know when to see them.At the same time, they kept praising Cui Donglin for his meritorious service in Chang'an, and he did a good job.

"Then tell me something special about my big Goguryeo."

Cui Donglin got up: "The first thing is that the Tang people have a very powerful road, which is made of fine steel, and then a huge steel dragon runs on the fine steel road. The speed is amazing, and the amount of goods transported is also very amazing."

"Is this related to our big Goguryeo?"

"Yes, this kind of technology is very clever, and it can be used by my big Goguryeo. Not to mention the technology, the officials inquired that the people of Tang Dynasty planned to build Jinggang Road to Luoyang within three years, then to Qizhou within seven years, and to build it in about ten years. Yanzhou, after 13 years, it will be repaired to the west of Liaodong City, thirty miles, which happens to be the border of my Great Goguryeo."

Yuan Jingtu hugged his beard, he didn't understand this very well.

However, according to what Yuangai Suwen said, the Great Goguryeo could fight the Tang people for ten years, and now it has endured for two years.

What happened 13 years later did not seem to affect the northern expansion of Greater Goguryeo.

"Well, you've done a good job. Can a detailed report be sent to Wangcheng on this matter."

"Have."

"That's good, let's talk about the second thing."

Yuan Jingtu said in his heart that since the official document has been sent back to Wangcheng, there will be relevant people to discuss the matter.

"The second thing is that I heard that the Japanese people had a joint talk. They ceded Chikushi Island to the Tang Dynasty. The Tang people sent many people to garrison Fukuoka to face the Yamato army across the sea. But the Japanese people in Tsushima Island were unwilling to give in. The Tang people sent The envoy sent a letter to Asuka Nara to negotiate again, but the result is still unknown."

"Chikushi Island. Good!" Yuan Jingtu and the Japanese also fought wars. The Tang people's occupation of Fukuoka Castle is half good and half bad for Koguryo.

Fortunately, Goguryeo can negotiate with the Tang people, send troops to Fukuoka, and get half of Tsushima Island.

The bad thing is that the Tang Dynasty occupied Chikushi Island. Once the Great Goguryeo and the Tang people turned their faces, the soldiers of Tsushima Island and Fukuoka would be a real threat to the Great Goguryeo.

Yuan Pure Land asked again: "So, is it the whole Chikushi Island?"

Cui Donglin "is the north of Kumamoto, Chikushi Island occupied by the Yamato Kingdom, and the south is Hayato's territory. They are not under the management of the Yamato Kingdom."

After seeing Yuan Pure Land nodded slightly, Cui Donglin continued to report: "Liu Concubine, who went to the far west of the Roman Kingdom, has returned. He just returned to Chang'an a month ago. There are rumors in Chang'an City that Liu Concubine is traveling to Rome this time. I went to a sea route of [-] miles and brought back a boat full of gold, silver and jewels."

"Liu Concubine is back, okay, prepare a heavy gift." Yuan Pure Land's first reaction was that once Liu Mu promised not to ask about Baekje's affairs, then the Great Goguryeo would dare to send troops to Baekje.

Cui Donglin clasped his fists together: "The lower official thinks that the heart is the most important thing. In terms of treasures, there may not be a few items in the Tang Palace that make Prince Liu's heart flutter."

"Good talk, you go and do it."

"Yes, the next official will do it. If it goes well, I will have the opportunity to visit Prince Liu within ten days." Yuan Jingtu was very satisfied with Cui Donglin's answer.

Cui Donglin withdrew, but did not leave in a hurry. He went to the ceremonial officer of the guest house, and carefully inquired about the recipes in the guest house, and inquired about other arrangements.

Naturally, someone reported all this to Yuan Pure Land, and Yuan Pure Land praised it in his heart.

Yuan Pure Land told the people who came with him: "There is nothing to do in the past few days. I want to take a look at the chronicles of the Tang people. You can go around Chang'an City later. Remember not to violate the laws of the Tang people."

All the petty officials said yes.

Outside the guest house, several officials from Goguryeo stopped Cui Donglin and asked Cui Donglin to take them to Chang'an City to have a look.
