Yang Qiqiu looked up at the young and vigorous general, and said lightly, "General Duan, don't be blinded by hatred. The current Nanzhao is no longer the Nanzhao of more than ten years ago, we must recuperate, if we are a poor soldier to redeem the army, do not wait for the Tang people to defeat us, we will have internal problems. ”

Yang Qiqiu, as one of the six phases of Nanzhao, still has a relatively clear understanding of the situation of Nanzhao and the Tang Kingdom. Speaking of population, the total population of Nanzhao is less than one million, while the Tang State has millions of people in Xichuan alone.

In the battle of Annan, the father of the young general in front of him died in Annan, and in that battle, more than 30,000 soldiers of Nanzhao were killed, which was not a small blow to Nanzhao. But the emperor Shilong of Nanzhao at that time did not call the army, and then raised the strength of the whole country to attack Xichuan, although he once surrounded Chengdu Mansion, but in the end it still failed. Those wars caused Nanzhao to lose more than 100,000 troops, which means that there are more than 100,000 young and middle-aged people, which can be said to be nerve-wracking for Nanzhao, who has a population of less than one million.

Although Yang Qiqiu is also greedy for the wealth of Xichuan, and Nanzhao is also greedy for it, they are all powerless.

And the Baolong in front of him, because his father died at the hands of the Tang people, he has a deep resentment towards the Tang people, and he doesn't know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing to agree to the other party to follow.

"Yang Buxie's words, I don't dare to agree." Duan Baolong raised his eyebrows and said coldly.

"Whether you agree with it or not, that's your business. But I hope you don't spoil this relationship, otherwise the consequences are not something you can bear, and it will not be easy for the Duan clan to come to you. "Young people's personalities are a little impulsive, so Yang Qiqiu didn't dig deeper, and he couldn't let him worry about a child.

But soon he was slapped in the face, because as he arrived at the boundary of Chengdu Prefecture, he found that the Tang people who came to greet him were actually also a child. He just knew that the Tang people came to greet him this time was a prince, but he didn't expect this prince to be a teenager... No, young man.

And as soon as they met, the Tang Prince had a eye exchange with Duan Baolong beside him. The two are of the same age, and they are both people with high power on the surface, but they have no actual status, coupled with Duan Baolong's provocative eyes, it is difficult for Li Ye not to pay attention.

After learning Duan Baolong's identity, Li Ye understood who the other party was. In history, Duan Baolong's reputation is not obvious, and there are not many surviving historical records about him, and he is not as famous as his grandfather, father and son.

Of course, the most famous is his son. For Duan Baolong, people in later generations know less, but his son Duan Siping knows more, because Duan Siping is the founder of Dali. However, according to Li Ye's memory, Duan Siping should not have been born yet.

Originally, Li Ye didn't attach much importance to this Nanzhao mission, but when he saw a Duan Baolong, he made his trip worthwhile, and soon the Nanzhao mission gave him another surprise---- Guo Qi and the heads of several of his main subordinates.

When he saw the embalmed head in the wooden box, Li Ye was surprised. He had seen Guo Qi and naturally had an impression of him, although this head had long been bloodless, he could still recognize it.

As for Guo Qi, after returning to Chengdu Mansion, he inquired that Gao Renhou did not catch Guo Qi, but he did not know where Guo Qi had fled. Guo Qi is not an ordinary person, and the rebellion he initiated almost caused Li Yi to die in the rebellion, so Li Ye asked what was going on.

Listening to what Yang Qiqiu said, Li Ye understood what was going on, it turned out that Guo Qi fled in the direction of Nanzhao before the city of Yazhou was broken. Because there were thousands of border troops stationed in Lizhou, Guo Qi and others bypassed Lizhou from the mountains, fled to the territory of Nanzhao, and took refuge in Nanzhao.

According to Yang Qiqiu, it was the current emperor of Nanzhao, Long Shun, who killed Guo Qi and others in order to show his sincerity in making peace with the Tang Dynasty. However, Li Ye heard some other meanings, especially when it came to killing Guo Qi, the dissatisfaction on Duan Baolong's face, thinking of the identity of the other party, he understood something.

Pity this Guo Qi escaped from the imperial army several times, but in the end he died at the hands of the Nanzhao people, which is also fate. It is estimated that the other party thought that he was taking refuge in Nanzhao, but he didn't expect Nanzhao to kill him directly in order to curry favor with the imperial court.

Subsequently, Li Ye brought the Nanzhao division to the special guest house, although this guest house is not as big as Chang'an, but it is no problem to fit the hundreds of people in Nanzhao and his party. However, after bringing these Nanzhao people to the State Guest House, Li Ye threw the group to the people of Honglu Temple and Zongzheng Temple. Originally, this kind of welcome to foreign guests was the Honglu Temple Guan, which was the ancient Ministry of Foreign Affairs, because Nanzhao and his party came to make peace, and Zongzheng Temple was also touched.

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and Li Ye doesn't have time to deal with this group of people, so he naturally becomes the shopkeeper and asks Honglu Temple and Zongzheng Temple to greet him.

。。。。。。

When night fell, the lively city of Chengdu gradually quieted down, although the curfew was lifted from today to the Shangyuan Festival, but Chinese New Year's Eve was a traditional festival for family reunion, and the merchants of the Fang City also went back, even if the curfew was lifted, there was still no one on the street.

Filial piety comes first, even if it is a wanderer from afar, he will rush home tonight to spend this Chinese New Year's Eve with his family. If it is in the small counties and towns and rural areas of the 21st century, the sound of firecrackers has already sounded at this time, and at this time, there is no such thing as firecrackers. Although there are firecrackers, the firecrackers at this time are just burning bamboo, and the festive atmosphere is not very strong, only the red lanterns on both sides of the street announce the arrival of the new year.

In the palace, the lights are bright, and the palace lamps have already been hung high, and the joy carried by the orange lights has washed away the loneliness of the palace. The hall was full of laughter, elegant music flowed from the fingertips on the guzheng and pipa, and the graceful dance posture was presented in front of everyone under the beating of the dancers.

Li Yu was not a qualified emperor or a qualified parent, but on Chinese New Year's Eve, he still summoned all the clans in Chengdu to the palace, and even some clans that were far away in blood were invited into the palace. Even so, the small palace is still not full, which shows the withering of the royal family.

As a dynasty that has lasted for more than two hundred and sixty years, it stands to reason that there should be many clans. But during the Wu Zetian period, the Li royal family was almost not wiped out, and after the Anshi Rebellion and the current Huangchao Rebellion, many clans died in the war, and less than one of the ten clans fled to Chengdu.

Perhaps because of the heir, Li Yu's family affection has increased a lot, which is why there is this clan gathering on Chinese New Year's Eve.

It stands to reason that as Chinese New Year's Eve, with beautiful dances, pleasant piano sounds, and delicious food on the table in front of you, you should be happy, but there is one person with a sad look, this is Princess Anhua, a princess who is 20 years old and has not yet married.
