When Li Shimin heard this bribe, his eyes narrowed: "Is there any evidence?" ”

"Your Majesty, Qiu He's life in Jiaozhou is erosive, no one knows about it, he has a hot fight with the leader of the local natives, and the Han people and the natives have any lawsuits against the natives, and the beautiful name is that the natives don't know the king, and they must be educated. In fact, all the expenses of his family were caused by a large amount of bribes from the natives, and the most important thing was that he also sold iron to Langzhou. ”

"What? How daring is he? Fang Xuanling stood up as soon as he heard this: "There is a shortage of iron in the south, and the weapons of the natives in Lingnan are not enough, so they surrendered to my Datang, and now Qiu He dares to sell iron to Langzhou, where the natives have always wanted to be independent, isn't this helping to abuse?" What a threat to the safety of my Tang soldiers in the future. ”

"Lust for profit, lust for profit." Li Shimin slammed the teacup in his hand: "Take him back to Beijing and put him in prison for me." I'd like to see how bold he is. ”

"Your Majesty, no." All the ministers spoke in unison.

"After committing such a big crime, I can't take him?" Li Shimin's face turned green with anger.

"Yes, Your Majesty, Qiu and he are Lingnan and Feng Ang who defected to my Tang Dynasty, and they are also the highest officials of the Lingnan Shi clan, if they are recklessly arrested, it will definitely cause a shock. What's more, he is already eighty-five this year, and he has a few years to live, so Wei Chen suggested that he should reprimand him for the next will. ”

"Qiu He is insignificant, but his son Qiu Xinggong is my Tang Dynasty general, and he has also made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty, so why can't he bring his father to justice."

Referring to Qiu Xinggong Li Shimin was silent, in the battle to destroy Wang Shichong, he and Li Shimin broke into the enemy formation, Li Shimin was hit by an arrow, Qiu Xinggong dismounted and pulled out the arrow, and gave his horse to Li Shimin, he walked in front of Li Shimin's horse, and used a big knife to open the way in front of the encirclement. After thinking for a while, he said, "Forget it, I'm old, and I don't care about him." So since Li Dongsheng is innocent and meritorious, he has been hanging him for so long, what kind of errand should he arrange for him? ”

"Your Majesty, it is a matter for the officials to appoint officials, and Your Majesty can designate temporary errands, and let the officials decide for themselves whether to stay or stay of this six-grade official." The eldest grandson Wuji softly gave Li Shimin a nail.

Wei Zheng coughed a few times and said, "Lord Changsun means that Your Majesty can't even decide the whereabouts of an official?" ”

"Lord Wei laughed, how dare I? I mean Your Majesty has a lot of important things to do, and the departure and stay of a six-grade official is a big thing, do you still want to alarm Your Majesty? So what else do you need the ministry to do? ”

Seeing that a group of people were about to start arguing again, Li Shimin had a headache: "Okay, okay, Li Dongsheng's matter will be discussed later, now Tuyuhun has taken it down, but do you have any regulations for the follow-up?" ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen heard that there is a Tubo further west of Tuyuhun, and now it is also strong, originally Tuyuhun was a buffer area between my Tang Dynasty and them, but now he has to face it directly, and he still has to send troops to station, and be wary of the other party's movements."

"What? Where is the Tibetan? It was the first time Li Shimin heard that Tuyuhun was next to Tubo: "Where are Songzhou and Yizhou also close to Tubo?" How big is their territory? ”

"We also asked the merchants, and they said that this country has not been for a long time, and it used to be a tribe, but now it has just been unified, and it seems that the leader is called Songtsen Gampo, who is also a male lord."

"In the presence of our Majesty, he is also worthy of being the Lord? The chief of a savage land, who has never seen the soldiers of my Tang Dynasty, is just arrogant. ”

"That is, it is estimated that it is the same goods as Jieli, and if you dare to offend Datang, you will let him be destroyed."

"What are you exterminating, those places are all poor mountains and bad waters, or bitter cold places. Only grass grows and no trees grow, and there is nothing to shoot down, which will only waste money and food, which is too cost-effective. ”

"That's what I said, Li Jing has been fighting all the way to the West Sea, and all he sees is grass, at most he can get some cattle and sheep back."

Li Shimin was still happy to listen to these people praise himself, but who knew that the topic was biased again, he stood up: "I'll talk about the matter of Tubo later, now let's settle down the place of Tuyuhun first, I see where there are cattle and sheep, do you want to drive the wool felt factory over?" When talking about this factory, Li Shimin thought of Li Dongsheng again, because of the existence of this factory, Dingxiang City has now become the largest city on the grassland, and the income of herdsmen has also increased, and they are also very supportive of Datang. He sighed in his heart: Li Dongsheng's age is a hard injury.

Returned to the dormitory, Li Shimin went directly to the eldest grandson queen, since last year, her health has not been good, Li Shimin and her are a young couple have experienced ups and downs together, and the relationship is very deep, he is also anxious about this, and the imperial doctor has not seen much improvement.

Seeing Li Shimin come in, Empress Eldest Sun came up to greet her, she had a serious illness last year, although she recovered a little later, but her health is still not very good, and the whole person looks a little older.

Li Shimin hurriedly stepped forward to help her and said with concern: "I come every day, why do you want to come out to pick it up?" You deserve to rest well. ”

"It's okay, my body is much better, it's still okay to come out for a walk!" But as soon as she finished speaking, she saw that her face suddenly turned pale, and her body shook a few times before falling forward!

"Guanyin, what's wrong with you?" Li Shimin shouted in horror: "Imperial doctor, go and pass on the imperial doctor." Just go! ”

In the dormitory, the eldest grandson queen was lying on the bed, her face was blue, her eyes were closed, her breathing was very weak, and Li Shimin on the side of the bed nervously asked the imperial doctor in front of her: "What happened to the queen?" Why haven't you woken up yet? ”

Worried about the eldest grandson queen who was in a coma, Li Shimin deliberately suppressed his anger, his voice was not loud but scared several imperial doctors trembling, and he knelt on the ground with a "poof", and kept kowtowing but did not dare to say his condition.

"I don't want your kowtow, just tell the truth about the queen." Li Shimin was also anxious: "If you don't say anything, you will all be executed." ”

Finally, someone had the courage to say: "Your Majesty, no matter how good our medical skills are, we can't change our lives against the sky, Queen...... The queen has reached her limit, and it is not human power that can be redeemed, so please ask Your Majesty to mourn! ”

Although Li Shimin was prepared in his heart, when he heard the words of the imperial doctor, he burst into tears, and said loudly: "Isn't there a little hope?" You are all quacks, give me a list to recruit talents, and I will find famous doctors from all over the country to treat the queen. As long as I can take care of the queen's illness, no matter what the price, I am willing to pay! ”

Outside the main hall, almost all the princes and princesses came, and the little son hugged Li Zhi tightly, she was still young and could only rely on her brother. Li Zhi had already sensed something from the nervous looks of the people around him, tears were in his eyes, and the little son helped him with a handkerchief, and comforted: "My brother doesn't cry, but the queen mother says it's not good to cry." ”
