Chapter 203: Keeping Li Shimin on his back is the black cauldron
Li Simo's thoughts seem to be very incredible things in these Turkic Qulu Si, but they have long been perceived by Li Chengqian.
The young Qu Lu Si Yan couldn't believe it: "Why? Isn't he loyal to the Heavenly Khan?"
Lu Zhi didn't look at him, just sighed meaningfully and said: "He is loyal to Tian Khan and can die for Tian Khan, but he can't let the entire Turk die for the Tang Dynasty." ”
"Then are we going to go to Hubo?"
Lu Zhi fell silent again when he heard this, in fact, he also understood that it was not a wise move to go all the way to Hu Bo now, but his natural wildness made him really unwilling to stay here to look up to the snort of the Tang Dynasty.
After another half an hour, Lu Zhi stood up as if he had made up his mind and said to everyone: "Now that the matter of Datang and Xue Yantuo's relationship has not been decided, we don't need to leave in a hurry."
What we should do now is to feed the cattle and sheep and grow fat, so that more women can give birth to strong children, only then can our race continue......"
The people in the big tent were full of passion when they heard the words, and only a few older people looked at Lu Zhi with some hesitation.
Lu Zhi turned to look at them, his eyes flashed fiercely and shouted: "Hu Bo is there, as long as our cattle and sheep are fat and the war horses are strong, we can go, and we don't need to look at his ......face when we get there."
All the Qu Lu sipping words were also glaring and ruthless......
But at this time, the voice of an outsider came from outside the tent: "Everyone Qu Lu sobs, the deputy superintendent of Dingxiang Pastoral Supervisor is here to see!" ”
When everyone heard this, their faces changed drastically, and they all became gritted their teeth, eager to go out and fight with each other immediately.
The Tang Dynasty Taifu Temple was under the jurisdiction of many pastoral supervisors of the imperial court in the northern and northwest frontiers, and the main duties of these pastoral supervisors were to herd horses and cattle and sheep.
The imperial court has a set of very strict management standards, such as a hundred mares to breed 60 foals a year, which is not easy to complete, the imperial court also offered a reward for an extra foal to reward a silk, and more than ten sheep to reward a silk.
During Zhenguan, all the pastoral supervisors were very loyal to the imperial court, and they all wanted to donate more horses and livestock to the imperial court, but breeding is a very risky thing in Datang, and it would be good to complete it according to the class.
What should I do if I want to overreport?
Find a Turk in the neighborhood and ask for it!
What about the Turks?
Bear with it!
Originally, according to the rules of the steppe, the victorious side generally did not leave a way for the defeated side to live, and either killed or reduced to slavery, but Li Shimin did not do this, he retained the internal organizational structure of the Turks and retained their national cohesion, and at the same time used them to violate the law of national integration.
In some cases, the officials of the Tang Dynasty always oppressed them in this way, which is why the Turks broke away from the Tang Dynasty decades later and quickly gained the support of the steppe tribes.
Later, in the so-called Kaiyuan Dynasty, Tang Xuan defeated many ethnic minorities in the northeast, and also hit the Great Food in the west, but he was never able to subdue the northern tribes again, because since the destruction of Daxue Yantuo in the last year of Zhenguan until the death of Tang Gaozong, they have been slaves of the Tang Dynasty and exploited by the Tang Dynasty.
Lu Zhi also knew that it would not be easy for them to stay and live in the area south of the Yellow River, but now was really not the time for them to escape from the Tang Dynasty.
In the end, Lu Zhi said with a fierce glint in his eyes: "Now the life of all the departments returning from Hebei is very difficult, if they are still as greedy as before, we have no choice but to take risks, rob their pastoral supervisors and then go to Hubo." ”
"Rob a few of the Tang Dynasty pastors for us, and we can stand on our own when we get to Mobei." The idea of the teenager Qu Lu sipping is always so good.
-------------------
After entering the fifth month of the lunar calendar, the weather in Guanzhong gradually became hotter, and the place where Li Chengqian was located did not feel too hot because of the ice supply every day.
But Li Shimin, who is physically rich, can't love anymore and is ready to go to Jiucheng Palace to escape the summer.
However, Li Chengqian had already ordered a grand reception of Xue Yantuo's envoy, and Li Shimin should receive Xue Yantuo's envoy on the Chengtian Gate Tower and tell the world that the Tang Dynasty would make peace with Xue Yantuo, so that when Li Shimin repented of his marriage, he would definitely be in a dilemma.
But if Li Shimin went to Jiucheng Palace to escape the summer, Li Chengqian stayed in Chang'an to receive Xue Yantuo's envoy, and agreed to Xue Yantuo's proposal as the crown prince, and then was rejected by Li Shimin, it would be too embarrassing.
So now Li Chengqian must find a way to leave Li Shimin in the black cauldron in the north of Chang'an City.
So Li Chengqian prepared to build an artificial air conditioner, and the night before he ordered the craftsmen to make the parts they needed.
Early the next morning, Li Chengqian wanted to take advantage of the cool weather to get things done, and when he came to the door of the Lizheng Palace, he saw that there were already many attendants and craftsmen waiting for him, and they saluted him when he came out.
Li Chengqian waved his hand and said, "No courtesy!" ”
Then he looked at the saltpeter and other materials in the water tank he ordered to prepare yesterday, and saw that half a tank of saltpeter had been filled in the water tank, and there was a wooden box without a lid next to it, and so on.
After looking around, Li Chengqian saw that there was only a pair of three-leaf wooden fan leaves, so he turned around and asked Liu Kui beside him: "Why is there a lack of one?"
Then Liu Kui doesn't know who is being touted by people with Li Chengqian these days, so when he heard this, he stepped forward and scolded the servants and craftsmen here in front of Li Chengqian: "A group of useless things, this idea can't be done?"
The attendants and craftsmen didn't know what was wrong, and they were so frightened that they hurriedly lay on the ground, trembling, and didn't dare to make a sound.
Liu Kui felt more and more majestic when he saw it, and angrily walked in front of them and gave a kick to a waiter, and said loudly: "Quickly reply to our family." ”
Li Chengqian was furious when he saw it, walked behind Liu Kui and lifted his crutches, smacked him on the ass fiercely, and said, "Bastard thing retreat!" Liu Kui saw that Li Chengqian, who had always been gentle to him, suddenly hit him angrily, although he didn't know what was wrong, he still hurriedly lay on the ground and climbed to the side.
Then he looked at the group of attendants and craftsmen lying on the ground and said lightly: "Get up." ”
Everyone didn't dare, Cheng Wuting walked up to them and gently kicked the waiter's buttocks with his foot and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked you to get up?"
The chamberlain dared to raise his head to look at Li Chengqian, and hurriedly got up.
When everyone got up, Li Chengqian asked lightly: "Where is the wooden fan leaf that the lonely king wants?"
"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, the wooden fan leaves are generally ready, and they are inserting decorative peacock feathers." A craftsman stepped forward.
Li Chengqian frowned when he heard this: "Who asked you to pretend to be a peacock feather?"
The craftsman was stunned when he was asked, and an attendant glanced at Liu Kui who was lying on the ground and didn't dare to speak.
Li Chengqian understood what he meant, and said expressionlessly: "Pull out the cane and be punished for twenty strokes and go to the toilet to be on duty." ”
Cheng Wuting waved to a guard in the distance when he heard this, and his own guard came to carry out Li Chengqian's order.
"Send someone to take the wooden fan leaves and go to the Taiji Palace with King Gu." Li Chengqian said as he sat on his chariot and went all the way to the Taiji Palace.
There was no court meeting today, but Li Shimin still came to the Liangyi Hall early to deal with government affairs.
When Li Chengqian walked into the Liangyi Palace, Zhu Suiliang was persuading Li Shimin to stay in Chang'an City for the time being, and wait to see Xue Yantuo's envoy and go to Jiucheng Palace again.
Li Shimin frowned slightly when he heard this: "The prince will stay in Chang'an to receive him, and if there is any objection, he will send someone to inform me quickly." ”
Li Shimin didn't want to stay in Chang'an City for a moment.
