Change the Tang Dynasty Li Yuanba

Chapter 123
"Brother Qin, let's recuperate in Chang'an City when you come back. In the past 13 years, I have been sorry for you and suffered you. I hope Brother Qin will give me a chance to make up for it."

Li Shimin looked at the terminally ill old man in front of him and said.There was a hint of sadness in his tone.

Time is not forgiving.After 13 years of separation, the old man in front of him is no longer the peerless warrior who accompanied him in the charge.

Hearing what the emperor Li Shimin said, Qin Qiong smiled like a child.

"To have His Majesty's words, Qin Qiong is worth it, and this life is worth it. Cough, cough."

"Your Majesty, don't say such things again. Without Your Majesty, how can there be Qin Qiong now?"

"In that war-torn era, without a wise coach, we rough men who only know how to wield guns and sticks, what good results can we have? Look at my fifth brother, Shan Xiongxin, and the senior brother Xiong Kuohai, who was led by Commander Meng, in the end. What happened?"

"If I hadn't had to meet Your Majesty, my Qin Qiong's grave would have been covered with grass. Meeting Your Majesty is Qin Qiong's blessing."

"As long as Qin Qiong is alive, he will protect the land of Tang Dynasty for His Majesty. Cough, cough."

Qin Qiong said with a smile while coughing.

"Brother Qin, be careful and don't get excited. He is willing to make up for you. You should ask him to make up for it. You deserve it."

"You worked hard for the former Sui Dynasty in the first half of your life, and fought for the Tang Dynasty in the second half of your life. Now that you are old, you should enjoy the blessings. As for the task of protecting the land of the Tang Dynasty, leave it to me."

"I don't believe it. With me, Li Yuanba, who can touch my Tang Dynasty in the slightest."

Li Cha persuaded Qin Qiong with full confidence.

"Yeah, hahaha, with my Great Tang Huawang Li Yuanba here, I also want to see who doesn't have a good eye and dares to covet even a sliver of my Great Tang."

Qin Qiong also laughed and replied.

"That's right, Brother Qin, you can rest easy and recover from your illness. Find a wife for Nephew Huaiyu, give birth to a few babies, and enjoy the family happiness."

"When you're free, go to Chang'an City to experience the changes in my Tang Dynasty over the years."

"My Tang Dynasty is changing with each passing day. The economy is prosperous, the country is prosperous and strong, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. The prosperous Tang Dynasty that we fantasized about during the war has already appeared."

Li Shimin also laughed loudly.

As Li Shimin laughed, Qin Qiong and Li Cha also laughed.

It's true that Li Shimin is a nostalgic person, but at the same time, Li Shimin is a person who puts interests first.

No matter how sorry Qin Qiong was in his heart, he had no intention of marrying a princess of the right age to Qin Huaiyu.

The marriage of the princess is the most effective way for Li Shimin to win over and appease the courtiers, but Qin Qiong is really old in his eyes.

It's no longer worth him using a princess to win over and appease her.

But Li Shimin never cared about honor and money.

At this time, Li Shimin had already figured out how to compensate Qin Qiong, so that his guilt could be alleviated.

"Brother Qin, I won't say anything else. You have worked hard these years."

"I've already prepared the position of governor of Xuzhou for you. You can take charge of Xuzhou's military affairs here in Chang'an City. I will help you choose the acting long history."

"Brother Qin, although your body is getting old, the experience of being a soldier all your life is also a treasure for the Great Tang. So, you have to continue to do your part for our Great Tang."

After a burst of laughter, Li Shimin spoke.

This can be regarded as giving Qin Qiong a reputation of being famous but not entitled.

As the governor of Xuzhou, Qin Qiong led the Xuzhou military from afar, and the long history of the real management was indeed carefully selected by Li Shimin.That says it all.

As for the real information about Xuzhou, Qin Qiong, the governor, would definitely know it earlier than Li Shimin.

"The old minister thanked His Majesty for his grace. I never imagined that this old bone of the old minister could continue to glow. The old minister is willing to die for His Majesty and for the Great Tang."

Qin Qiong bowed and cupped his hands to thank him.

"Brother Qin, don't be in a hurry to thank you. Also, you should also mention the title of Lord Yi. The hereditary Duke Hu is also prepared for you."

Li Shimin said with a smile.Waiting for Qin Qiong's thank you.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is ashamed. The title of Lord Yi was created by the old minister on the battlefield. It was bestowed by the late emperor."

"But since entering Zhenguan, the old minister has not made an inch of merit. This hereditary Hu Guogong, the old minister is ashamed and has no face to accept it."

Qin Qiong didn't thank you this time, but declined.

"Old brother, although you did not have the merits of a big victory and annihilation of the country, you have kept my Tang and Liaodong borders free of war for more than ten years. How can you say that you have not achieved an inch of merit."

"This hereditary Hu Guogong, you can just keep it at ease. Besides, I owe you this."

After Li Shimin announced these two things in front of Qin Qiong, the guilt in his heart was greatly reduced.

"But Your Majesty." Qin Qiong still wanted to say something.

"Brother Qin, don't worry about it. This hereditary Hu Guogong, you just accept it with peace of mind. Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about Huaiyu. How long will it take for him to earn a county prince? ?”

Li Cha directly interrupted what Qin Qiong wanted to say.

"Okay, Brother Qin, this is the end of this topic. We brothers, apart from visiting you this time, we have something else to ask you about."

"It's about the situation on the peninsula, Goguryeo, Silla, and Baekje?"

Li Cha didn't give Qin Qiong a chance to speak again, but asked directly.

"Huaiyu, after filling up the water, you can go out."

Qin Qiong didn't answer, but told Qin Huaiyu to go out.Some words are not qualified to know if they are not in a certain position.

Li Cha naturally knew Qin Qiong's purpose, this time without waiting for Li Shimin to speak, he directly made the decision.He stopped Qin Huaiyu who was about to go out.

"Huaiyu, you stay and continue to serve tea and water. There are some things you young people can listen to. It won't hurt you. The future of Datang is yours after all. The teacher only hopes that you can show your own demeanor in the future and don't fall into the old age. A lifetime of prestige."

"Yes, Qin Huaiyu would like to follow the teacher's instruction." Qin Huaiyu bowed to receive the instruction.

"Brother Qin, what do you think of the attack on the envoys of Silla? You have been in Liaodong, so you should know them better." Li Cha then asked.

"Your Majesty, King Hua, what else is there to say? It's because Gao Jianwu's wolf ambition can't hide anymore. He wants to take Silla in one fell swoop, and then annex Baekje. At that time, he will fight against me, Datang!"

When it comes to Goguryeo, Qin Qiong doesn't get angry.Roared angrily.

"Brother Qin, please don't get excited and calm down. My second brother and I have analyzed it. What's going on here is really incomprehensible and unreasonable."

Li Cha explained his and Li Shimin's analysis to Qin Qiong in detail.Then said:
"My second brother and I don't think this is something Gao Jianwu did, and we don't know whether it is a conspiracy by Goguryeo or Silla."

"Does it need to be said? Gao Jianwu must have done it. He did this to guide our suspicion of Silla. Didn't His Majesty and King Hua fall into their trap?"

"Speaking of which, there is no need for the envoys of Silla to play such tricks. With the relationship between Queen Seondeok and Datang, as long as they come to ask for help, I, Datang, will mediate for them. Why do they have to do it so many times?"

Qin Qiong's anger still did not dissipate, and she said loudly.

"But Gao Jianwu directly killed all the envoys of Silla. That way they won't even have a chance to report. When I, Tang Dynasty, reacts, maybe he has joined forces with Baekje to destroy Silla."

Li Cha retorted softly.

"So, this matter doesn't make sense. So my second brother and I decided not to help each other, let them call. Let's talk about it after we figure it out."

When Qin Qiong heard that Li Cha said that he would not help each other, he was a little anxious.His complexion was even worse.The voices of speaking grew louder.

"Your Majesty, King Hua, don't be fooled by Gao Jianwu. His groveling attitude is completely for His Majesty to see. Before that, he kept mediating the relationship between us and the Turks."

"This time he joined forces with Baekje to attack Silla, which means that his wolfish ambitions have been exposed. After years of forbearance, he no longer wants to pretend. When he destroys Silla and Baekje, he is the one who will point the finger. It's time for the Great Tang."

"Using this excuse this time, we should immediately send troops to completely destroy Goguryeo."

Qin Qiong's voice became louder and more emotional.

Li Cha and Li Shimin glanced at each other, a little confused about what Qin Qiong was trying to do in front of him.

They just wanted to learn about the situation on the Goguryeo Peninsula.

Even if Goguryeo really unified the peninsula and demonstrated to the Tang Dynasty, so what?What is there to worry about?
Just now Qin Qiong himself said that with Li Yuanba around, no matter who dares to covet Datang, it is a joke.

Why is it that Qin Qiong's words mean both inside and outside the words to let Datang immediately send troops to destroy Goguryeo?
The two couldn't understand what Qin Qiong was thinking now, and finally Li Cha spoke up.

"Brother Qin, do you have any special views on Goguryeo and Gao Jianwu? We explained it very clearly just now. Even if Gao Jianwu is what you said, the matter this time can't be explained?"

After hearing Li Cha's words, Qin Qiong burst into tears.

"Your Majesty, King Hua, I'm stunned, old brother."

Qin Qiong saw that the provocation was no longer effective, so he sold his favor directly, and it became miserable.

The cry of the old brother made Li Cha and Li Shimin's hearts twitch immediately.

"Old brother, I'm already old, and I don't know when I will go to see the first emperor. Before my death, my old brother has only one wish, and that is to hear the news of Goguryeo's destruction."

"I can't personally experience the demise of Goguryeo, my brother, I don't want to die in peace."

Qin Qiong said bitterly.

Is this the legend that works from top to bottom?

Not only the emperor Li Shimin, but even the loyal and unparalleled Qin Qiong and Qin Shubao.In terms of acting skills, he is not inferior to Emperor Li Shimin at all.
