Chapter 185 Eventful Autumn

Before entering the door, Li Chunfeng's calves shivered a little. He took a deep breath and silently said, "I am for the Tang Dynasty and the people of the Tang Dynasty, and it is just." His courage suddenly became enough.

...

No one knows what Li Shimin and Li Chunfeng talked about. It is said that when Li Chunfeng came out, he had a expressionless face, but he was fine, with a lot of hair.

When Li Shimin came out, he was expressionless and seemed to be refreshed.

Then, rumors spread everywhere in Chang'an City.

"I heard that, Zhenren Li calculated the fate of the Tang Dynasty and his majesty's life."

"It's so amazing, how do you calculate it? What's the fate of the Tang Dynasty?"

"I don't know, it is said that His Majesty looks very happy."

"Really, it's great."

"Minren Li is so amazing."

"Have you heard it? Li Zhenren can calculate the matters in Persia."

"Yes, no matter who it is, Li Zhenren can calculate it."

Next, in the morning court, Li Shimin rewarded Li Chunfeng with a two-entry house, because he predicted the weather accurately and avoided floods in the upper reaches of the Yellow River.

Anyone with discerning eyes can tell that this is definitely not the reason.

Anyway, Li Zhenren's name is getting louder and louder.

Now, Li Chunfeng, who is seen, begins to walk with his hands behind his back and walk with his eight-character steps, which is so majestic.

Lu Dongzan lived in the Wei Palace. Li Tai treated him very favorably and gave him an independent small courtyard. He lived in it with four servants he brought from Tubo.

Li Tai arranged some maids from the Tang Dynasty for him, but he thanked him.

Lu Dongzan failed to fulfill the mission assigned by Songzan Gampo and was forced to stay in Chang'an. No one cared about him, but he could not leave Chang'an.

He stayed in Chang'an and made his own promise in front of many envoys of the country. The ancients highly praised the promise that if he broke his promise, it would not only be him, but also the entire Tubo people.

Lu Dongzan had heard that the Tang Dynasty was about to send troops to Tuyuhun, so he immediately sent someone to report the news to Songzan Gampo. In order to avoid the Tang Dynasty's people discovering their secrets, he asked the people who reported the news to only bring verbal messages.

Shortly after Lu Dongzan's servant left Chang'an, Ma Xuanliang reported to Li Shimin. Li Shimin just smiled and said, "Let him go."

...

September in the northwest has begun to feel the coolness of the autumn wind.

On the side of the Tao River in the southeast of Lanzhou, a fleet of carriages and horses were parked on the side of the road. In the carriage, Hamid lay on Hu Ji's thighs and was enjoying the food. He heard someone outside say, "Master, Prince Qi's men are here."

Hamid got out of the carriage and saw a group of people coming toward it from afar.

"Old Li."

"Old Ha."

Li You and Hamid met and hugged each other intimately.

Hamid said, "Come on, Lao Li, I have prepared delicious food for you in my car, and I'm waiting for you to enjoy it."

"Okay, I'm just hungry." Li You smiled.

After getting into Hamid's wide carriage, the two of them lay on a beard's thigh, enjoying the beauty's massage, drinking wine and chatting.

Li You said, "Old Ha, give you this." He took out a bronze medal from his arms and handed it to Hamid.

Hamid took it and saw that the bronze medal had the words "universal salt card".

Li You said: "This salt card is specially made, and the whole Tang Dynasty is just one. You can buy the salt from Tuyuhun at will, without limiting time or quantity. On the entire Silk Road, all the salt outside the Tang Dynasty is distributed by you. When the funds are not abundant, you can use credit."

Hamid's contribution to Datang and Li You himself deserves this treatment.

Hamid was secretly frightened. He knew that with this, he could be rich enough to rival a country. He smiled and said, "Then I will accept it." After that, he put the salt card in his arms.

Li You said: "Old Ha, we probably have to hurry up. The situation has been complicated recently and it is a turbulent time."

Hamid laughed and said, "It's okay, just hurry up when you're full."

Maybe it was Li You who was thinking about it, there were so many things going on this year.

Morning court, Tai Chi Hall.

"Your Majesty, there have been heavy rains in the upper reaches of the Huai River, and 24 counties in Shouzhou, Guangzhou and Yingzhou encountered floods." The Huainan Road Observer reported.

"Your Majesty, the natives of Jiaozhou in Annan Road riots killed the governor of Jiaozhou. The riots have now affected Fengzhou and are spreading to Yizhou." Annan Road Observer sent a memorial.

The ministers were talking.

Who knows that these are just appetizers, and the real threat comes from the grasslands in the northern desert.

"Your Majesty, Yi Nan, the leader of the Xueyantuo tribe of the grassland tribe, unified the grassland in the northern part of the Mobei, with 200,000 elite troops, and had the intention of joining the Tiel tribe and the Qie tribe to go south.

At present, small groups of grassland cyclists have appeared in Yunzhou, Shengzhou and other places, crossing the border into our Tang Dynasty’s threshing grass (robbery).

Fang Xuanling, the Minister of War, said.

The Xueyantuo Khanate's tooth tent is located in Yudun Mountain, Henan, Orhung, with 200,000 troops. The territory of the Khanate starts from the Great Xing'an Mountains in the east, reaches the Altai Mountains in the west, borders the Hetao in the south, and reaches the Selenge River in the north. It includes the Uighurs, Pugu, Tongluo, Bayegu, Aduo, and Wu tribes.

Yi Nan was a ungrateful wolf. The Tang Dynasty provided her with assistance many times. In the third year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin appointed Yi Nan as the Pearl Via Khan and married the Xinxing Princess (Li Yuan's daughter) to Yi Nan, and Yi Nan established the Xueyantuo Khan Kingdom.

In the fourth year of Zhenguan, taking advantage of the Tang Dynasty's defeat of the Eastern Turks, Yi Nan annexed some of the troops and territories of the two, with 300,000 troops, of which 200,000 elite troops were included.

Over the years, Yi Nan has been paying tribute to the Tang Dynasty, but his attitude has become increasingly arrogant.

Everyone was talking again.

Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, Yi Nan has personally gone to Chang'an, called "Sending Xinxing Princess to visit relatives, but in fact, it is here to investigate the reality of my Tang Dynasty."

"Haha." Li Shimin was so angry that he heard that so many troubles came at once. He was not a person who was afraid of trouble. He said, "Okay, come on, see how I deal with them."

Li Shimin's confidence infected the ministers, and everyone expressed their support for Li Shimin's decision.

Li Shimin immediately appointed Duan Zhixuan, the governor of Nanning, to serve as the chief marching officer of Annan Road, to quell the Jiaozhou rebellion.

Fang Xuanling is responsible for treating floods.

As for Yi Nan, let’s talk about it when he comes.

A few days later, Li Chengqian's army also set out.

...

Xiu Village, Longmen County, Jiangzhou.

Xiu Village is a large village with hundreds of families. At the entrance of a courtyard on the east side of the village, a burst of rebukes came from. On the steps of the gate, a middle-aged man wearing silk clothes stood (officials are officials, and the man is a respectful title for famous or wealthy people). Under the steps, a shabby, tall and handsome young man stood.

The official said coldly: "Xue Rengui, don't talk about my daughter. I don't care about her love forever. Get out of here, I'm too lazy to see you."
