Man Tanghong

Chapter 857 Ren Gui returns to Beijing
They are all masters who don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles.

Li Yuanji was not in a hurry to answer Li Shiji's question, but said angrily, "Stop pretending?"

Showdown? !

Li Shiji is an old fox, he doesn't care about his face, he said with a cheerful smile: "I don't pretend to be anything, I just want to better handle the errands assigned by Your Highness."

Li Yuanji hehe in his heart.

Believe you are a ghost.

"What can you do?"

"This one……"

Li Shiji smiled and said: "If the king of Xiangyi is willing to delegate power and Suni loses his complete trust in the minister, then the minister can do what His Highness needs the minister to do."

In short, Li Shenfu is willing to delegate power, but Suni is willing to trust his words completely. He can remove Turks from this world, or let Suni defeat Xieli and become the sole ruler of Turks. He can do it.

This is a bit of a big word.

But Li Shiji has this strength.

After all, his ability has been proven. If Li Shenfu is willing to delegate power, it means that Datang is fully supporting him behind the scenes. If Suni refuses to trust him completely, it means that everyone in Suni's department can obey Follow his orders.

In this case, it is not difficult for him to do anything.

The problem is that it is easy to let Li Shenfu completely delegate power and be a puppet, but it is difficult to make Suni Shi fully trust him and give him everything in Suni Shibu.

Not to mention Datang, even Suni himself may not be able to do it completely.

After all, Suni's Lost Department is a union. In addition to Suni's own people, there are also Liang Guo, Dahe's, and people from the Tudiji Department and the Stepping Force Department who are helping to wave the flag.

Sun Nishi himself has become the master of most people, but it does not mean that he pushed Li Shiji up, Li Shiji can also be the master of most people.

Not to mention others, but Liang Shidu of Liang Guo is definitely not willing to follow Li Shiji's orders.

Sun Nishi may not know Li Shiji well enough, but Master Liang definitely knows Li Shiji, and he will never hand over his troops to Li Shiji and let Li Shiji kill him.

"Are you still awake, or are you daydreaming? It's easy for King Xiangyi to delegate power to you, but how can it be possible to make Suni fully trust you?

You think that Sunny is my dog ​​and horse of Datang, will you obey me? "

Li Yuanji glanced at Li Shiji and said angrily.

The expression on Li Shiji's face did not change at all, he still smiled and said: "It's not impossible..."

Li Yuanji raised his eyebrows and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

Li Shiji smiled and said: "Recently, I have been idle and bored, and I have done some analysis on the Turkic situation, and I found that even if Suni lost the help of my Tang Dynasty, he would still lose to Xieli in the end.

My Datang is at most helping him to delay for a while.

So Sunny's final outcome is nothing more than two.

One is to be captured by Xieli, and then the whole family is executed.

The other is to fall to my Datang and be my dog ​​and horse. "

Li Yuanji said calmly, "And then?"

There is nothing new about what Lee Se-ji said.

Those who are familiar with the Turkic situation can analyze these.

So nothing to be surprised about.

Li Shiji said with a smile: "I see, according to Chen, Suni lost to my Tang Dynasty in the end, and the possibility of being my dog ​​and horse is the greatest."

Li Yuanji still calmly said: "What is the basis?"

Li Shiji's ability to analyze this shows that Li Shiji has a deep understanding of Turkic issues and a good understanding.

If other people heard this, they would definitely be surprised, but Li Yuanji would not.

Because in history, Suni finally turned to Datang, and became Datang's dog and horse together with Tuli.

This happened when the Turks did not experience the defeat of Gyeongju, nor did they experience a split.

Now the Turks have experienced the defeat of Gyeongju and the division, which is more than a little bit worse than in history.

Suni Shi is not the kind of person who would die for his country. Now he has connected with Datang again, received a lot of funding from Datang, and has deeper contacts with Datang than in history. If he is defeated by Xieli , it is inevitable to fall to Datang.

Because once Xieli defeated him, he would inevitably reunify the Turks. At that time, the Turks would have no place for him to stand. Only Tang could protect him and give him and his people a way out.

Hearing this, Li Shiji said in a little astonishment, "Your Highness is not surprised?"

Li Yuanji said indifferently: "What's so surprising about this? If Suni Shi was the kind of person who was extremely loyal to the Turks, he would not join forces with Liang Shidu and the Dahe clan to rebel against Xieli, let alone seek me out. Datang's help.

Therefore, if he was defeated by Jieli, it would be impossible for him to die for the country, and he would definitely flee the Turks.

Among the Turks' neighbors, the only ones who could withstand Xieli's pressure to take him in were my Tang Dynasty and Western Turks.

West Turk's Tong Yehu's eyes are higher than the top, and he took the pasture and a large number of people to vote, but he may not be able to get Tong Yehu's attention.

With him at the end of the road, if we don't vote, who else can we vote for? "

Speaking of it, Tong Yehu of West Turkic is also a great man, it doesn't matter if he can't tolerate others, he can't even tolerate people from his own tribe, forcing his own tribe to defect from West Turkic in order to survive.

Doesn't he know that his people are the foundation of his rule of Western Turks?
Without the support of his tribe, the other tribes under his control joined forces to rebel against him. How could he suppress it?
He really thought he was the one who created the huge Western Turks?

As long as he is here, can everyone in the Western Turks be restrained?

Ying Zheng was not as crazy as he was when he was sweeping Liuhe back then.

Although cronyism and respecting one's own clan members is not a long-term way of employing people, it is the mainstream of this era.

In this era, anyone who can twist their relatives and clansmen into one can achieve success.

Li Yuan is one of the best.

It's okay for Tong Yehu to make the people of other tribes miserable, and he doesn't even spare his own tribe. It's not difficult to see from his strength that he doesn't betray him, he is already walking on the verge of betrayal.

Now he is not old, and the soldiers and horses in his hands are still usable, so he can still suppress the tribes of the Western Turks.

Once he shows his old age, or if the strongest soldiers under his command are hit hard, the Western Turks will immediately be full of flames.

Judging from the history of Western Turks, this is clearly confirmed.

It is not unreasonable for Datang to be able to draw a sword and look around in a daze in history.

Of course, Datang's historical bewilderment is not because he drew his sword and looked around and didn't know who to fight, but that he couldn't find an opponent when he drew his sword and looked around.

Although this is a bit crazy, but in the peak period of the Tang Dynasty in history, there was really no opponent, and even surpassed the realm where I would fight whoever dared to be an enemy of the Tang Dynasty, and directly raised it to the point where I could fight whoever I wanted realm.

As for those who were beaten, almost none of them fell to their knees and called Dad.

Therefore, Datang should be strong, and there are problems if it is not strong.

Hearing this, Li Shiji said in embarrassment: "It's my minister who made a slip of the tongue, but as His Highness said, after the defeat of the army, Suni has no choice but to join us.

Then why don't we lobby Sunis now to make him fall to me, Datang? "

Li Yuanji glanced at Li Shiji, and said indifferently: "He thought about it and fell to my Tang Dynasty, so where will my Tang Dynasty go to train soldiers? Besides, convincing Suni to fall to us is not as easy as you said No matter how you say it, Suni Shi is the leader of one party, and he will never give up everything he has now and bow down to my Tang Dynasty until he reaches the end of the road."

Li Shiji pondered for a while, and said with a smile: "Although it is a bit difficult to make Sunishi completely fall to our Tang Dynasty now, it is difficult to persuade Sunishi to recognize my Tang Dynasty as the suzerain state and give me a city of Datang to garrison. It's easy."

In short, it is to take advantage of the opportunity when Suni needs Datang, to propose conditions to Suni, stand behind Suni, and be Suni's father.

It's like the eagle is over the stick.

Although doing so would not directly incorporate Sunis, it also became an existence in disguise to control Sunis and influence the sovereignty of Sunis.

Although it doesn't matter whether Datang wants this or not, but with this, the people sent by Datang in the past will become envoys of the Celestial Dynasty in Suni Lost Department. have absolute dominance.

With this dominance, Li Shiji and Li Shenfu have passed, and it is easy to do work.

After all, as a father, he went to guide his son to fight. The son can only respect him, and he can't be disrespectful, let alone commit patricide. Li Shiji and Li Shenfu are also safer.

After Li Yuanji understood the pros and cons, he secretly scolded Li Shiji for being too thoughtful, and then agreed to Li Shiji's request, "If you think this is feasible, then it's up to you to lobby Suni.

Once Suni fails to agree, and sets aside a city for me to garrison in the Tang Dynasty, I will give you credit. "

Li Shiji said with a bright smile: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness..."

This can be regarded as taking credit for nothing.

After all, judging from the current situation in Turkic, Suni Shi did not have the confidence to refuse at all.

"Then it's settled. Go to Daizhou to meet King Xiangyi quickly. I will let King Xiangyi wait for you in Daizhou and delegate power to you at the same time."

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Li Shiji got up slowly, and after bowing, he exited the Tai Chi Hall.

As soon as Li Shiji left, Li Yuanji let out a long breath.

It is really tiring to deal with an old fox like Li Shiji who has a lot of eyes.

After only a few words, the original target was changed beyond recognition under his influence.

But on the whole, it is beneficial to Datang, so there is no need to refuse or stick to one's own opinion.

Ren Gui returned to Beijing after Li Shiji and Li Shenfu rushed to Daizhou respectively after it was decided to send tactical advisors to Suni Shibu.

Bringing nearly a thousand people and escorting hundreds of carts.

The cart was full of grain, all of which he had grown in Yuezhou.

When the cart entered Mingde Gate, it immediately caused a sensation.

Under Ren Gui's deliberate dissemination, many people knew that the poor mountains and rivers in Yuezhou where pigs and dragons ravaged, and now it has become a land of fish and rice.

Not only is there rice that can be cooked twice a year, but there are also plenty of fish to be caught.

Some businessmen began to inquire about the authenticity of this matter.

After getting an affirmative answer, the food price in Chang'an City dropped by [-]%.

The grain merchants all knew that in the sparsely populated area of ​​Yuezhou, the grain grown must be more than what Ren Gui brought back, and there must be a large harvest of grain.

It is definitely not possible to transport these grains back by land, and the consumption in the middle of the journey is enough to raise the price of grains several times.

But the food in Yuezhou can not only go by land, but also by water.

It can be transported to Chang'an by water transport, or it can be transported to all the places in Datang that have been transported by water transport, and the cost of transporting grain by water transport is much lower than that by land.

Therefore, when grain from Yuezhou floods into the market, the price of grain will definitely drop.

The common people don't have to worry about hoarding grain. The grain merchants don't distribute the grain accumulated in their hands as soon as possible. When the grain in Yuezhou floods into the market, the price of grain will be even higher.

That is to say, Chang'an is far away from Yuezhou, and it will take a long time for the grain to be shipped back, otherwise the price of grain in Chang'an will drop even more.

However, the downward trend of food prices in Chang'an is a good thing for the common people. The nobles had already sold the stored grain in their hands when Pei Ju went to Yuezhou, so market fluctuations will not affect them .

Therefore, only merchants, and those small households in the food business would care about this kind of thing.

And whether they were inside Chang'an City or outside Chang'an City, they couldn't make any big waves, so no one cared about their attitude.

When Ren Gui transported the grain to Suzaku Gate, the warrior Leng, Shaoqing of Sinong Temple, led the whole of Sinong Temple to welcome him.

Although the result of Ren Gui's twice-a-year rice planting in Yuezhou has nothing to do with Sinong Temple, but Sinong Temple is in charge of farming. If there are good crops appearing and the results have been planted, then they have to express it respect.

After Ren Gui and Samurai Leng greeted each other politely, Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda led all the officials to greet Ren Gui at the gate of Suzaku Gate, and thanked Ren Gui for his dedication on behalf of the common people and Tang Dynasty.

In the end, Ren Gui was allowed to take a sedan chair to the Taiji Hall, presented hundreds of carts of rice, and was promoted to the prime minister under the witness of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

Ranked under Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda.

With the merits of discovering and promoting rice that is grown twice a year, Ren Gui's promotion to prime minister is meaningful to no one.
