After Li Tong and his entourage returned to the palace of the letter fang, when the family members stepped forward to see the cages loaded on the carriage being unloaded for inventory, they saw the jewels in the cages and hurriedly reported them.

After Li Tong got the news, he was also quite surprised in his heart, and hurriedly went to the side compartment warehouse to check. Ouyang Tong is an honest official and a good person, Li Tong thought that these two cars of goods should only be used for literature and ink, and he didn't pay much attention to it, but after walking into the warehouse, he couldn't help but be moved when he saw his family members spreading out the goods on the car.

These gifts are mainly mink skins, colored satins, and even more than a dozen smooth and tough animal skins. The royal palace was inspected and found to be a leather material such as seal skin, which could be used to make many military utensils, saddles and armor linings.

The colored satin craftsmanship is not very exquisite, but the materials are extraordinary, unfolding and shaking, and there is a dazzling color like a morning glow. This should belong to Gaoli brocade, although it is not as exquisite as Shu brocade, but the material is desirable, there are not many licensed goods on the market, and the price is a few points higher.

In addition, there are a lot of pearls, smooth cold jade, including orpiment for women's makeup, and can make silk instruments and even bow and crossbow tendons, all of which are valuable precious materials.

"King, here are the books."

Yang Siqiao held a letter and presented it, and Li Tong unfolded it to see it, and he knew it in his heart.

This batch of gifts was collectively donated by some Goguryeo relocated families in the Shendu City, in order to thank the young king for punishing the deeds of the Junchen.

This guy who came to Junchen complained about Mangyeongyi, not just talking, and even Goguryeo, who had lost his country, suffered a lot. At the beginning of the year, he asked for a bribe from the general of the right guard, Quan Xiancheng, and was imprisoned and persecuted to death by him.

Quan Xiancheng was born in the Quan clan of the Goguryeo power clan, and before his death, he was the general of the right guard and Yulinwei, and the north and south were the leaders of the two ya, which can be said to be a high power, and he is the representative and leader of the people who moved from Goguryeo to the court.

Knowing who gave the gift, Li Tong couldn't help but smile. He had already thought that his such a flamboyant punishment of Junchen would definitely attract those enemies who came to Junchen to vote for him, but he didn't expect that it would be such a big fish to enter the net first.

During the Gojong period, after Goguryeo was destroyed, hundreds of thousands of people, including the Goguryeo royal family, the Gao clan and the Quanchen Quan, moved inward.

Although most of these Goguryeo people who died were arranged in the border areas as vassal city armies of the Tang army and participated in the Tang Dynasty's conquest of the surrounding provinces, the Liangjing region, which was the core of the empire, was also arranged. In particular, those who were already prominent in the Gao clan and the Quan clan even entered the court to hold prominent positions and participated in the feudal rule of the Goguryeo region.

In the vicinity of Luoyang, the capital alone, there were tens of thousands of Goguryeo people who moved inward, and although they were enrolled in the prefectures and counties, they still maintained deep contacts with those old country names.

The reason why Li Tong knew this so clearly was because Quan Xiancheng's residence in Shendu City was located in Jixian Fang, on the southwest side of his family's Xinfang Palace. In the old years, when their brothers were in the divine capital and Quan Xiancheng was not dead, they could occasionally see Quan Xiancheng's residence outside the workshop, and there were many old Goguryeo people visiting and worshipping.

The influence of the Quan clan among the remnants of Goguryeo is even far greater than that of the royal Gao clan, whose ancestors were Yuan Taizuo, who had resisted the Eastern Expedition of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, and Yuan Gai Suwen, the last powerful minister of Goguryeo, who changed his surname to Quan because he avoided Li Yuan, the ancestor of the Tang Dynasty.

It is precisely because of this that Wu Zetian attaches so much importance to Quan Xiancheng, and the military power of the north and south is juxtaposed. But the wood is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it, no matter how strong the Quan clan is, after all, it is just a group of dead countries.

During the Heavenly Grant period, the situation was already unpredictable, and the prime ministers of Southern Province were dying in batches, and Li Tong felt that Li Tong used the name of mourning to avoid the peak of this struggle. Military power is already sensitive, and it is reasonable for Quan Xiancheng to stand in such a prominent high position, and it is reasonable to be attacked and framed by others.

Although the ostensible reason was that Lai Junchen could not ask for bribes to inflict harm, the matter is certainly not that simple. At least Wu Zetian wants to keep someone, and it will be difficult for Junchen to do harm, such as the conflict that broke out with Li Tong this time, and he didn't dare to show up when his house was seized.

"Put away these goods for the time being, and by the way, ask someone about these Goguryeo remnants."

Although these goods are worth a lot of money, Li Tong doesn't pay too much attention to them. Xijing City made a windfall, although he was confiscated by his grandmother, but Li Tong's horizons were also expanded, and he didn't value the value of this property very much, but he was very interested in the kindness expressed by these Goguryeo relics.

Although Quan Xiancheng was easily killed by Lai Junchen, there must be a deeper reason for this, which does not mean that these Goguryeo dead people are weak. However, it is certain that these Goguryeo people have this heavy gift, and it must not be as simple as simply saying thanks, and there will inevitably be follow-ups.

Li Tong saw that the gift-givers on the list included some representatives of the old Goguryeo tribe, such as Gao Baoyuan, the current king of Joseon County, Quan Xiancheng's uncle, and Quan Nanchan, who was appointed as the official secretary of Shaoqing.

Li Tong only returned from the forbidden place yesterday, and today he went to visit Ouyang Tong. In such a short period of time, those people were able to go through Ouyang Tong's door and give away such heavy goods through Ouyang Tong's hand, which shows that the energy is still not small.

Of course, Li Tong did not dare to hope that he could use this to collect all these Goguryeo remnants for his own use. After all, how to govern these people, including the hometown of Goguryeo, is already a choice at the national strategic level, and it is far from what he can operate as a newly seized phoenix.

However, even if these characters can't use their power to their advantage, it's good to maintain a good interactive relationship. I believe that these people also have such thoughts, and they are already miserable after the death of the country, and they are painful to make such a leading figure as Quan Xiancheng, and now they should also make good connections, hoping to have more friends and multiple paths.

Compared with Xijing, Luoyang is Li Tong's home field, although he has been away for several years, some personnel relations are still maintained. So soon, the relevant information was transmitted back to the royal residence.

Yao Yuanchong, who is now in the Xia Guanlang of the Military Department, took advantage of the opportunity to come to the door in person, and by the way, he told the young king about the problems of these Goguryeo remnants in the court. Especially about the death of Izumi Xiancheng, although it was Lai Junchen who shot on the surface, there was no lack of thrust from important people behind it.

For example, Li Zhaode, who served as a Xia official squire before paying homage to the prime minister, had a lot of complaints about the problems in the Fan General's Dictionary.

Now in the Shendu forbidden army system, there are as many as seven or eight generals at the level of the general of Nanya, in addition to Quan Xiancheng, there are also Heizhi Changzhi, Lu Chongyu, including several people from the Turkic Ashina family, as well as the chieftains of the Nanzhao Xintou tribe.

Although there is no lack of fetters and arrangements for the distant collar of the vain position, the proportion of the generals of the Sixteenth Guard is also quite amazing, in the words of Li Zhaode, "I am a prominent position in China, how can it be specially set up for the slaves and fierce people."

Li Zhaode's imperial and Han remarks, Li Tong also agreed with it in his heart, but at the same time, he had to admit that it was definitely not a good phenomenon to be too xenophobic if he wanted to support a large empire with a vast territory and inclusiveness that could rule different nationalities and regions.

As long as you are willing to work for me, you are a good comrade, and you don't have to spare the title and reward.

Of course, the grasp of proportion in this is more a test of the ruler's scale, and after all, it must be combined with the entire general trend to weigh and choose.

Like his grandmother Wu Zetian, this must be excessive, too indiscriminate, so that the people of Tibet do not know that my name is prestigious. Quan Xiancheng's death, it is difficult to say that someone is to blame, even if Li Zhaode expressed dissatisfaction, but at that time, he had not yet paid homage to the prime minister, and it was impossible for him to collude with Lai Junchen and punish Quan Xiancheng for his innocence.

Yao Yuanchong also mentioned that when Quan Xiancheng was also in charge of the Yulin Army, he also had a lot of disagreements with the kings of the Wu family, and even Wu Yizong once scolded the Tibetan people for not knowing whether they were alive or dead. Thinking about the temperament of the martial arts, there may not be a need to offend-for-tat, the critical moment and the key position are just to fulfill their duties without pretense, for the kings of the Wu clan who have burst of self-confidence in recent years, they may have offended them.

In short, this is a confused account, so you can only directly take the back of Junchen's back on this black pot.

After learning this, Li Tong was relieved to learn that Quan Xiancheng was not involved in any blatantly taboo sensitive incident, and turned his head and instructed his family to take the list and go to visit Hui Xie's family separately to maintain a relationship.

He still has a lot of ideas about these Goguryeo relics, and even if they can't help each other politically, the relevant human and material resources are also worth quoting.

For example, the Fanhu merchants who are now active in the market between the two capitals, because the four towns of Anxi have not been restored and the trade routes in the Western Regions are not smooth, so they still occupy the mainstream of distant merchants in Annan and Donghu. It can also be seen from the gifts sent to the royal palace that these treasures from distant lands are both rich and valuable, and there are other transactions such as Goryeo Ji and Silla maids.

In other words, these Goguryeo countries may not have much political protection, but their economic strength is still good. Like the Tianshu cast later, the chiefs and merchants of the Donghu tribes took the lion's head.

Li Tong's stall is very large, and his plans are also big, and the use of wealth and goods is naturally as good as possible.

In addition to these, the remnants of Goguryeo who moved inward were extremely numerous, and there were also quite a few talents available.

In addition to the old clans such as the Gao family and the Quan family on the table, such as the famous generals of the Tang Dynasty, Gao Xianzhi and Wang Sili, they are all Han talents who came out of the surrounding area and armed in Goguryeo City.

In short, it is good to maintain a rapport with this group, both now and later. His grandmother failed to fully tap and make use of this national destruction dividend, of course he had no polite reason.

punished Lai Junchen, and also invaded his home, and because of this, the remnants of Goguryeo took the initiative to show their goodwill, and when they came to this world, Li Tong rarely had such a refreshing time.

It's a pity that the guy who came to Junchen hid too deeply, and he was about to leave, otherwise Li Tong really wanted to dig it out and beat him in public, it was just a big gift package!
