Datang first village

When Li Yuanxing was standing at the gate of Tiangongfang to communicate with the time machine, a personal guard rushed over.

"Your Highness, General Qin of Chang'an City sent someone to deliver a letter. Something serious happened!"

"Big thing?" Li Yuanxing was stunned for a moment, big deal!It's hard for Qin Qiong to say something big, what does this mean?

After grabbing the letter and tearing it open, Li Yuanxing read it quickly, but he didn't understand it at all.It's just that the Western Turks sent special envoys to Chang'an. What kind of big deal is this?

"Where is Princess Mingyue?" Li Yuanxing asked.

"Go back to Your Highness, in the study!" The guard replied while arranging for a sedan chair.

Li Yuanxing got into the sedan chair, and the two strong bearers rushed to Li Yuanxing's study.Li Yuanxing usually walks slowly, but when there is an urgent matter, he can't let a prince run around the yard.

Before entering the study courtyard, Li Yuanxing stopped, and said to the guard: "Let Ling Ye go back to the backyard directly, and tell her that the king is going to Chang'an, and it may take a few days. Let them discuss who will accompany the king!"

The guard ran away.

Li Yuanxing opened the door and entered the small study, and said directly: "Brother Shubao sent someone to send an urgent message, saying that something serious happened. The special envoy of the Western Turks visited and entered Chang'an City in two days. He just listed the other party's I don't understand the composition of the personnel and the general situation of the team, what a big deal this is!"

The area occupied by Western Turks is larger than that of Eastern Turks.

Moreover, Western Turks occupy the position of modern Urumqi, where there are large tracts of land that can be planted.Especially the Tianshan Mountains are still under the control of the Western Turks.

If we talk about major events, the cooperation at Tianshan Mountain is a major event, so Li Yuanxing decided to live in Chang'an City for a few days.

Wu Zhao took the letter and flipped through it quickly, then said to Qiuxiang, "You two go and get ready, I'm going to Chang'an with your Highness, go quickly!"

After Qiuxiang and Chunlan went out, Wu Zhao said, "They want to come and make a kiss!"

"What?" Li Yuanxing snatched the letter, repeating the reader.

Wu Zhao said at this time: "According to historical records, it was at this time that the Western Turks should have proposed marriage with the Tang Dynasty. But in history, it was destroyed by Jieli Khan. Now that Jieli does not exist, then they will naturally go smoothly. Come to Chang'an. Isn't this a big trouble?"

"Fuck it!" Li Yuanxing cursed violently.

"Do you want to sacrifice a poor girl to accomplish your political goals? Do you want to use a woman to exchange for a few years of peaceful development for the Tang Dynasty? My Highness King Qin of the Tang Dynasty, where is your pride?" Wu Zhao stood On the table, at the same height as Li Yuanxing, he stared into Li Yuanxing's eyes and said loudly.

Li Yuanxing clenched his fists tightly, he knew very well that those bullshit civil servants would definitely choose to make peace.

Marriage has always been a very good strategy.

A few years of peace in exchange for only one woman is worth more than business.

The big man had marriages, and because of the marriages, Wenjing ruled and accumulated enough wealth for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Da Sui had a marriage, and it was because of the marriage that Da Sui restored the glory of the Han people.

Making peace is one of the most wonderful strategic ways in politics.

"It was said in the Datang News that no marriage, no land..." Before Li Yuanxing finished speaking, Wu Zhao interrupted him: "This is just your attitude, even the royal family has the same attitude. It will put pressure on you. In order to curry favor with you, the Seventh Family even sent the daughter of their own lineage as a gift, what do you say!"

Li Yuanxing's guard of honor entered Chang'an City an hour and a half later.

Along the way, Li Yuanxing didn't say a word.

In the palace, Li Er was sitting behind the desk in the study, flipping through the watch as if nothing had happened.

In the imperial study room, unlike in the past, there were no eunuchs or palace maids, and the number of imperial guards around was half of the usual number. The water on one stove had already boiled, and the cold water on the other stove had just been put on.

Wu Zhao did not go to the study with Li Yuanxing, but entered the harem with Cui Yanyan and Lu Qiuyu.

"Your Highness, Your Majesty has been waiting for Your Highness." Eunuch Gao greeted Li Yuanxing in the garden, and said softly as he walked, "Your Majesty was in a very bad mood today after General Qin arrived, His Majesty will be relieved when he comes down. "

Li Yuanxing stopped in his tracks, pursed his lips and thought for a while: "Go get ready, I will have a drink with my brother tonight!"

"Yes!" Eunuch Gao withdrew.

Entering the study, Li Yuanxing closed the door with his hands behind his back: "I have been worrying about the fields in the village for the past few days, and spring plowing will begin soon. It's not a big deal, but it's not a small one. But at this time, someone is making trouble for me!"

Li Er put down the watch in his hand: "Then what are Wulang's plans?"

"I don't know how long I can last?" Li Yuanxing was telling the truth.

Once the aristocratic family discovered that just sending a woman could solve the things that could not be solved after all their efforts, the life and death of a woman seemed insignificant.

Li Er picked out one of the seals and put it on the table: "Brother, I've known about this for ten days. It's just that no one has told you about it. Goro has worked really hard for Yaozhou's affairs!"

"Then why let me know now?" Li Yuanxing asked back.

Li Er stood up suddenly, swept all the watches and stamps on the table to the ground with his hand, then picked up the copy left on the table, walked out of the desk, and handed the copy to Li Yuanxing himself.

Li Yuanxing opened it and saw that it was the seal on the Honghe Temple.

The Goguryeo envoy first asked for a consulate but was rejected, and then found that there seemed to be more Goguryeo slaves in Chang'an City, and one of them was a woman with a price tag of [-] guan, who turned out to be the daughter of the lord of a city on the border of Goryeo. When they realized that those cities had completely turned into flat land, they formally submitted a document to Honglu.

When Li Yuanxing was looking at the watch, Li Er went to the bookshelf and took out a copy, and slapped Li Yuanxing heavily.

Li Yuanxing read them all.

"Goryeo wants to declare war on the Tang Dynasty?" Li Yuanxing suddenly laughed. .

"That's right. Once the Tang Dynasty went to war with Goryeo, it had to form an alliance with the rest of the states. Goryeo defeated the Sui three times. It can be said that the loss of the Sui country was largely due to the loss to Goguryeo. "

Li Er is very serious. One of the enemies he takes very seriously is Goguryeo.

Li Yuanxing understood that if there were enemies in the east, then an alliance was needed in the west. At this time, it was impossible for the Western Turks not to make an unreasonable request.

"How does the emperor plan?"

Li Er laughed, and laughed loudly: "What do you want to do for my brother, just tell Wulang you. I plan to punish you for another three to five years for my brother. General Tian Ce of the Tang Dynasty wants to ask my brother what he thinks about foreign enemies. !"

Li Yuanxing also laughed: "Brother Huang gave my younger brother a good suggestion!"

"Suggestion!" Li Er suspected that he had heard it wrong, and asked, "What advice did Brother Wei give you!"

"How does Brother Huang understand the meaning of life for rascals, hooligans, and idlers!"

"It's just meat with a hob!" Li Er replied angrily, and then stared into Li Yuanxing's eyes.

Li Yuanxing touched his body, but forgot to take a cigarette when he came out.He went to Li Er's table and found a few, lit a cigarette, and Li Yuanxing asked with a smile: "If my younger brother messes around, will the emperor end it for my younger brother?"

"Nonsense, the nonsense of King Qin of the Tang Dynasty and General Tiance also represents the Tang Dynasty!"

What Li Er said was obvious, no nonsense is allowed, this issue must be considered carefully, Li Yuanxing's status is too special.So Li Er also understands that there are some things that he can't help Li Yuanxing to end.

Li Yuanxing scratched his head a few times: "Troublesome, really troublesome!"

"Tell me, what are you going to do?"

"War, Datang is going to declare war on Goguryeo. Then look at the reaction of Goryeo, they are not afraid that Datang will fight over, because it is too difficult to supply supplies along the way, and only one tenth of ten loads of grain has been transported. So they Dare to declare war on Datang. Conversely, if we don't fight, then Datang will lose too much face."

Li Er nodded. If Datang didn't have enough deterrent power, the contract just signed in the northern grassland would probably be invalidated.

The actions of Emperor Han Wen and Emperor Jing are reasonable enough.

It is a very cost-effective way to exchange a woman for a few years.

"Brother Huang, what if, on the other hand, it is announced that Datang accepts Goryeo's declaration of war?" Li Yuanxing asked again.

Li Er sneered a few times: "It's a joke, the small country declares war on the big country, if the big country doesn't send troops to teach the small country, it will lose face."

Goryeo is playing with this hooligan, no matter what they are fighting a purely defensive war, which is extremely unfavorable to Datang, and the Western Turks are also wolves, they will take this opportunity to sit on the ground with Datang to raise the price.

"One more year is enough!" Li Yuanxing sighed a long time.

Li Er also interjected: "So, exchanging a woman for this year is more cost-effective. Brother Wei can predict that within five days, the Tianying Pavilion will propose a marriage proposal to Brother Wei!"

"What would happen if Brother Huang stood on the head of Chang'an City and slapped himself in the face in front of the people of Tang Dynasty?"

How could Li Er not understand Li Yuanxing's words?

"Brother Wei said that he would not get along with him, he would not be a minister, he would not cede land, and he would not pay compensation. But would the aristocratic family care about Brother Wei's face? For the sake of profit, they would slap Brother Wei severely in the face, He will even force his hand to fight for brother himself." Li Er smiled wryly and shook his head: "For the sake of Great Tang, it doesn't matter if you slap a few times."

Li Yuanxing's heart also sank.

"It seems that the emperor has made up his mind. If necessary, agree to the proposal of marriage?"

"Don't underestimate the nobles in the world!"

Li Er said a very sad thing.

And it is also a big truth, especially in the early Tang Dynasty, the power of the gentry was too strong.

Li Yuanxing did not answer, but walked to the door and opened it: "Send someone to remind you, why are the food and wine not ready yet?" (To be continued.)
