Chapter 521: Leading the Leader (11)
Taichu Palace, Wucheng Palace, Wuhou Chang Dynasty.
Empress Wu asked about politics, first listened to the erudite Hongzi Kejinshi's political assignment, and the Prime Minister Ouyang Tong replied, in an orderly manner, as she said to Quan Ce, Empress Wu was quite satisfied, and praised Ouyang Tong a few words.
"Tubo and Tuyuhun rebelled against the side, can there be a report?"
As soon as these words came out, the DPRK and the Central Committee were a little excited, and the war with the allied forces of Tubo and Tuyuhun was imminent, and the forces of all sides in the DPRK and China were gearing up and ready to move, especially the military generals and nobles, and their breathing was rough.
The king of Hanoi and the Xia official Shangshu Wu Yizong, as the military chief, had the most say in this matter, and he did not give in, and he came out again and again, and played the latest battle report, but it was the joint performance of Zhao Liu, the protector of Anxi, and Tang Xiujing, the governor of Xizhou.
Tuyuhun mutinied, the leader of the army outside Dayan Mangbo Jie got the support of Tubo, personally led a small group of elite to kill and ambush the city, his brother, Tuyuhun's leader Nuo Haobo drove down the throne, set himself up as the king, Nuo Haobo fled to Shanshan City, to the Great Zhou for help, unexpectedly Shanshan City's chieftain city lord was afraid of the Tubo forces, before the arrival of the Great Zhou army, the Nuo Hao bowl was tied to the tail, to the following Tubo army, Nuo Hao bowl was tied to the horse's tail, dragged to death in public.
ββ¦β¦ Since then, the heart of the Tugu Hun thief has become stronger, almost become a servant of Tubo, and gather more than 70,000 troops with the strength of the country, after the fall of Lintao, go around the land of the Heavenly Empire on the right side of Long, invade the Anxi Protectorate, and attack the Shule city in advance, intending to ...... the four towns of Anxi."
"The ministers sent elites to execute the city lord of Shanshan to show the heavens...... In order to avoid the enemy, the ministers and other arrogances will buy and hoard the materials and grains that have been hoarded in Shule, transfer the small department, and burn most of them......"
"The ministers are equal to Khotan, Qiuci and other important towns to gather troops layer by layer to defend against Tuyuhun...... According to the ministers, Tubo originally did not transfer more than 10,000 troops, but now it is gaining momentum, and it is necessary to guard against ......it."
Hearing that the war situation has deteriorated to this point, there was an uproar in the court, Wenchen was indignant, spit lotus flowers, and scolded Tubo one after another, that Nuo Hao Bowl was supported by the Tang Dynasty during the Gaozong period, Gaozong chose a family daughter, named the princess of Honghua, and married Nuo Haobo as his wife, from this point of view, Nuo Haobo is the son-in-law of Gaozong and Empress Wu.
The generals also swarmed up, jumped out, and asked Ying to fight, they didn't speak very neatly, but their voices were loud.
In the first few rows of the court, standing still, only Quan Ce was left, and his lonely figure was very conspicuous.
The Chinese military forces of the dynasty and the princes of the political affairs hall only heard that the Tuyuhun army attacked the city and the Tubo army killed the son-in-law of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but no one paid attention to the changes in the momentum of the Tubo army mentioned by Zhao Ju and Tang Xiujing.
It is a confirmation of what he said before, on the Qinling's military control in Tibet, there was a loosening of the military power, unable to organize a large-scale dispatch of troops, through conspiracy to take risks, and after making progress, he regained his appeal and won the support of some wall-grass tribes.
Everyone was drunk and I woke up alone, Quan Ce felt slightly bitter in his heart, but he was not slacking off, and he also stepped out.
Empress Wu sat up slightly, many courtiers also looked at him, and Wu Yizong also let out a cold snort.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the Shaofu Supervisor can raise the price of the merchants to buy from the vassals, and the price of the domestic products of Tibet may be increased by multiples, one of which is to encroach on the military supplies of Tibet, and the other is to intensify the contradictions between the forces of all parties in the country of Tibet, and think that it is an auxiliary" The proposal of the power policy no longer mentions opposition to war, but it also does not mention the military, and puts forward a relatively crude idea of economic war, using gold and silver to open the way, in addition to the two effects he said, it can also siphon the materials of Tibet and create chaos on the plateau.
"What Quan Shilang mentioned is too naΓ―ve, although the Tibetan hypocrisy is cunning, the soldiers are together, and they will work together if they want to, how can they let the materials flow out?"
"The discussion of the right servant is really ridiculous, the two countries exchange troops, but give gold and silver to the enemy, isn't it the enemy?"
"Quan Shilang was also a brave general on the battlefield, he was familiar with the battle formations of the two countries, and he couldn't defeat Tubo with one force, all his plans were just in vain, but now he is doing the opposite, what is his intention?"
β¦β¦
Wu Yizong and others were very angry about Quan Ce's proposal, and their words were sharp, obviously wary of Quan Ce, and they were wary of him taking the lead in the war in Tibet.
Quan Ce returned to Chaoban with an expressionless face and said no more.
These people don't know that the domestic power struggle in Tibet is fierce, no less than the original battle for the Great Zhou Dynasty, and they don't know that there is no material and food, gold and silver are just dead things, and they are not as neat as stones to smash people, where are they worried about the enemy?
"The so-called right match, win with odds, the right waiter proposed, although it is unheard of, but you might as well give it a try, you can get miraculous results"
"The husband is the victor without a fight, and he has to count a lot, even if he fights on the battlefield, it is also a strategy before bravery, how can it be said that it is in vain?"
β¦β¦
He was too lazy to take care of it, and he had Ge Hui, Song Jing and Yao Chong and others come forward to fight back one by one, and Lu Xiangxian and Cen Xi and others from the original Taiping princess line were also eager to protect the lord, citing scriptures and classics, and arguing fiercely.
"Enough"
Empress Wu slapped the imperial case heavily, and she always attached importance to the proposal of the right policy, but seeing that the court was in a dispute because of this, and could not reach a consensus on this matter for a long time, she had no intention of studying it in detail, so she stood up sonorously, and cut the mess with a quick knife, "Tubo and Tugu Hun are rebellious and rude, repeatedly raising sword soldiers, fierce and violent, and regard my Great Zhou Tianwei as nothing, endangering the unification, where the people of my Heavenly Dynasty and those with backbone, who can be slaughtered?" Where I am a celestial dynasty civil and military, who can be indifferent? β
"The ministers of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China are civil and military, and those who are willing to practice and lead the army to go on the expedition, and those who recommend the virtuous and the strong generals and warriors, have folded and played, and I will personally read the clear judgment"
"Your Majesty, the ministers obey the order" The ministers knelt on the ground, and the sound was unprecedentedly high, but they didn't overturn the roof of the Wucheng Palace.
Empress Wu pressed the dispute between the DPRK and China, and Shi Shiran re-seated, "The major events of the imperial court, in addition to the war, there is also civil governance, the so-called prosperous era of repairing books, the great Zhou Dynasty is at its peak, is it an exception?" "Imperial Review", "Wen Si Bo Yao" and the like, is a treasure book for the study of the people, but only Confucianism, not as good as the interpretation of Taoism, quite insufficient, I intend to gather well-educated people, the compilation of the three religions in one and other books, what do you think? β
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is wise"
This time, the volume is much smaller, most of them are white-haired old ministers, especially the Cilin officials and Taoist officials, the Guozi Priest Jiu Ming Shanbin, the head of the Hanlin Academy Wei Chuhou and the senior bachelor Song Zhiwen, all jumped out for the first time to support it, and the officials of the Chunguan Yamen and Lintai were one step slower and made the second echelon.
In general, although the matter of repairing books involves fame, it is not profitable, and the professional barriers are quite high, and the important ministers and magnates are either not interested in it, or cannot get involved, and most of them do not mind much.
"Your Majesty, the minister Bao promoted the Xin'an County Gong and Luantai Shilang Quan Ce as the chief compiler, leading the literary world, and Yucheng Wenhua Event" Ming Shanbin is a pure Confucian, obsessed with the way of poetry, and respects Quan Ce like a god, but in the end he is not the entrainment of Quan Ce, and the realm of comprehension intention is a little worse, and the performance of Quan Ce is already obvious, he likes to be quiet and does not like to move, and he does not want to take the lead.
"Seconded by the Ministers"
Suddenly, a large number of people poured out to participate in the grand event, Wu Yizong, Zong Qinke, and Yuan Shuji were among them, and their idea was to kick Quan Ce to repair the book, and there would be one less competitor to grab the credit.
Quan Ce hurriedly made a list of excuses, "Your Majesty, repairing books is a great cause, the merit is in the present generation, and the benefits are in the future, although the minister is lucky to enjoy the great name, but the seniority is not good, the experience is limited, I am willing to participate in it, and I am a consultant, and it is really not suitable to receive the important task of compilation."
"Well, that's fine" Empress Wu showed a smile, she had no other plans, "Set up the Three Sects Zhu Ying Compilation and Repair Hall in the right side hall of the Luocheng Palace, add Shangbao Cheng Zhang Changzong Yinqing Guanglu Doctor, as the chief compiler, Lintai Young Eunuch Cui Rong Deputy Zhizhi, right supplement Que Zhang said, Dingwangfu Cangcao Liu Zhiji, Xu Yanbo in the matter, Hanlin Bachelor Song Zhiwen and others entered the museum for compilation"
"Quan Ce and Wan'er are both momentary fame, they can be consultants, reward literature, attract legacies, eclectic to one pattern, recruit talents, and do things to convene overseers"
"Ministers obey the order" power policy and the list of people together to receive the order, among these white-haired old masters, the people who have a plan to drill the camp are even more excited, but the enthusiasm of the rest has been reduced by half.
"The concubine obeys the order" Shangguan Wan'er bent her knees and was blessed, with a little joy in her expression.
