Chapter 761: Tang War Horse Mission!【Fourth Update】
Chapter 761
"Hehe, how could it be! ”
Wang Chong smiled, and his palm was open, revealing a pair of teardrop-shaped, extremely delicate agate inlaid gold earrings.
This is a pair of high-quality agate that Yang Hongchang presented to Wang Chong not long ago, and Wang Chong found the best craftsman in the Western Regions to make a pair of earrings. At this time, it was just given to Huang Qian'er.
Sure enough, Huang Qian'er originally had a cold gaze that could kill, but when she saw this pair of delicate and beautiful agate inlaid gold earrings, her expression immediately looked a lot better.
Snorted coldly, his eyes glanced at Wang Chong fiercely, but he accepted the pair of agate gold-inlaid earrings.
"I've already brought it to you, and I'll leave the rest to you. ”
Huang Qian'er turned over and dismounted, and handed the reins to Wang Chong.
"Come, take Miss Qian'er inside to rest, and find a few maidservants to serve you well. ”
Wang Chong took the reins and commanded behind him.
Wusheng is far away from Jingshi, sleeping in the open all the way, quite difficult, Huang Qian'er is a girl who is willing to rush here from Jingshi for herself, although she didn't say anything, but how could Wang Chong not be considerate.
sent someone to arrange Huang Qian'er properly, and Wang Chong led the white hoof and left quickly.
......
When Wang Chong welcomed Huang Qian'er and his own white hoof in the city of steel, the distant Jingshi, an extremely fierce debate was being staged in the court.
"Ten million taels of gold? Are you kidding? Where did the imperial court get so much gold and silver to squander? And who knows if those people can be trusted. ”
"That's right, the silver of the imperial court is spent every year like flowing water, six or seven hundred thousand troops, people eat horses and chew, and officials in various places, where does not need to use money? If there is a drought, flood, or something, don't you need to prepare some silver in advance?"
"All the money is spent on the military, what about other places?"
"And 10 million taels of gold is not a small amount, so if anyone speaks in the future, we will have to allocate 10 million taels? This is gold, gold! Not silver, not 10 million copper coins!"
......
The controversy in the court was very fierce, and all the officials of the Imperial History, Shilang, and the Six Ministries, including those princes and princes in the court, all joined in.
Everyone was arguing in a heap.
"Bastard! What do you mean by arbitrarily allocating 10 million taels? This is a war horse, the most scarce war horse in the imperial court! This is something that money can't buy. ”
"There are eggs under the nest, and the skin will be attached without hair, these war horses are used to protect the family and the country, if you can't even defend the family and the country, is there any point in talking about everything else?
"Yes, the young man is a prince appointed by His Majesty, and the Son of Heaven has given words, if even what he says cannot be trusted, what else can be trusted? You don't even believe in Your Majesty's eyes!"
"The imperial court has no pasture, and it can't raise a large number of war horses, but this is an opportunity to send it, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and the opportunity must not be lost and never come again. If you want to buy it later, it's too late to regret it. No matter how valuable 10 million taels of gold is, can it be more important than the safety of Datang?"
......
The court was clearly divided into two factions, each refusing to give in to each other. 300,000 war horses, and they are also the best war horses of the Turks, which is something that was unimaginable before. Almost all the generals in the military were involved, and everyone knew what a lot of opportunity there was here.
As long as I have a breath of salt, I will never allow you to do this. ”
His Royal Highness, next to the dragon pillar with vermilion lacquer, Wen Retro, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, looked excited, and his voice was extremely high-pitched:
"Whoever wants to pass this approval will step over my Wen Gu's corpse. ”
As a figure in the Confucian vein of the imperial court, Wen Gugu has always been extremely disgusted with war, and he will never agree to the matter of tens of millions of taels of gold.
In the past few days of court controversy, Wen Gu is also one of the extreme opposition.
"Wen Retro, you bastard!"
Hearing Wen Gu's words, the lungs of the military were about to explode.
"Hey, hey. ”
No one saw that under the other dragon pillar, King Qi was dressed in a python robe and sneered. He doesn't need to come forward in this court dispute, a Wen retro is enough for them to be busy.
"Wen Retro, do you want to die, I'll fulfill you! This is the Danshu Iron Coupon given by the Emperor, you take it, swallow the iron and commit suicide!"
Suddenly, an angry voice sounded like thunder in the main hall. The voice came suddenly, and the extreme anger startled everyone. In an instant, there was silence in the hall, and even Wen Gu trembled and turned his head suddenly.
Outside the main hall, I saw a figure walking in stride, and the pair of extremely angry and fire-breathing eyes made people tremble.
"The soldiers of the imperial court fought bloody battles on the border, and because of the bones of countless soldiers, the ministers can talk here without scruples. What are you discussing? Is the world of the Tang Dynasty made empty talk? Is it empty talk about the Northern and Western Regions?"
"The literati mislead the country, Wen retro, you are a corrupt and sour Confucian, misleading the country and the people, the death is small, the country is big, don't you want to die, I will fulfill you today. ”
King Song was furious, his right hand slammed hard, and with a bang, he smashed a piece of iron coupon to the ground and smashed it in front of Wen Gu.
After being in the court for so long, it was the first time that everyone saw King Song have such a big fire, his eyes were cold, as if they were cold winter, and his sword-like eyes seemed to be able to pierce people fiercely.
There were so many people in the hall, but no one dared to look directly at him. At this time, not to mention other people, even King Qi who was hiding under the Panlong Pillar was taken aback.
"Song ......"
King Qi's heart moved, and as soon as he wanted to come out, he was glared at by King Song, his eyes were so fierce that it looked as if he was going to die with him and die together. With King Qi's obedience, he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, stopped and was taken aback.
"This madman, what does he want to do? It's just tens of millions of taels of gold, and it's not his own, why is he working so hard?"
King Qi was actually frightened by King Song for a while.
It's just tens of millions of taels of gold, and the flowers are also from the imperial court, so what does it have to do with him. King Qi is only opposing for the sake of opposition, Guan doesn't really care about this matter. In this matter, he is far less determined, let alone persistent.
For such a thing, it is too unworthy to start breaking the net and losing both.
"This bastard, for the sake of a young son of the Wang family, as for it?"
King Qi gritted his teeth, hating in his heart. But seeing King Song's fierce eyes, he really couldn't make up his mind to break the net with him in this matter for a while.
"Who's the other?"
Song Wang said, angry for the crown. This matter has been dragging on for nearly a month, and almost all of his patience has been polished, and a once-in-a-lifetime thing that benefits the country and the people has been forced into the current situation, and all his anger has been hooked out.
"Wen Retro, you sinner, marching and fighting, you don't understand anything about military essentials. If there is something in the border area, and there are not enough war horses, which affects the military situation, causing the lives in the border area to be ruined, and the people are slaughtered with poison, this king is the only one who asks, even if you die, this king will set up a monument, write your shame and mislead the country, write it on it, and stand in front of your grave. ”
In the last sentence, King Song was furious.
Rao is Wen was not afraid of the Manchu Dynasty, and when he heard King Song's words, he couldn't help but feel suffocated in his heart and couldn't speak. The literati are not afraid of life and death, but only afraid of solar terms and reputation, and with the reputation that the Song Dynasty is accustomed to, it is obviously extremely angry to say such things. And, in his style, he always walks the talk.
Wen Gu thinks that he really doesn't know anything about military affairs, if something really goes wrong and he erects such a monument in front of the grave, it is really something more difficult to accept than death.
Wen Gu glared at King Song, his lips opened a few times, but he was completely speechless.
I have to admit that he was really frightened by this kind of King Song.
Even Wen Gu, the biggest opponent, was suppressed by King Song, and King Qi was silent over there, and for a while, there was a dead silence in the court.
The originally fierce court battle instantly quieted down.
After nearly a month of heated debate, an agreement was finally reached. When it was dark, a carrier pigeon with black feathers and golden eyes rose from the Beijing Division, quickly traversed the Beijing Division, flew over thousands of mountains and rivers, and flew all the way to the distant black wounds.
"Whoa!"
A few days later, the sun was shining and the pigeon passed through the window and landed in front of the lattice.
"Hehe, it worked. ”
Wang Chong put down the letter sent by King Song, glanced at the carrier pigeon on the window lattice, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. The appropriation for the purchase of horses has finally come down, although King Song said it lightly in the letter, but Wang Chong knows that there is King Qi making trouble in the court, how can this approval be easily allocated.
As for Song *, there was a faint apology, revealing that the early payment was only 10 million taels of gold, but Wang Chong didn't care very much. With the first time, there will be a second time, and the most important thing is that the imperial court has opened this door to purchase. Moreover, as long as the imperial court and the military see the first batch of excellent Turkic war horses sent by themselves, they will naturally take the initiative to mention the second and third batches of purchases.
These thoughts flashed through his heart, and Wang Chong soon heard a familiar voice in his mind:
"Congratulations to the host, open the quest 'Datang's War Horse' and reward 400 fate energy points. ”
"P.S., there is no time limit for this task, the more war horses the host buys, the more rewards, for every 10,000 war horses, 100 fate energy points will be rewarded. The host has received 11,000 horses and is rewarded with an additional 110 points. ”
......
"Huh, there is such a mission?!"
Hearing this voice, Wang Chong was surprised, this kind of task with no time limit was the first time he had received it. And, surprisingly, I have been in contact with Khuluyege for a while, but when I first made the deal, there was no such prompt. On the contrary, when the king of Song sent a letter and the court approved the purchase money, he heard a prompt, which surprised Wang Chong.
