Chapter 110: The Messenger
For Song Guogong, the eventful autumn also extended into winter. The Tang Dynasty formed an alliance with the Turks, and in Xiao Yu's heart, he had been thinking about Empress Xiao, who had taken refuge in the Turks, and was thinking about how to protect her.
Although the Tang Dynasty has internal and external troubles, it is naturally much better than the Turks. Jieli Khan got the Han Zhao Deyan, which is called a treasure. vigorously imitated his predecessors and began to drastically change customs. The Turks have always been wild, and where can they accept the cumbersome decrees of the Han people, the Turks from hundreds of officials to the common people are all complaining.
But things did not go as planned, and the envoy who returned from the Turks repeatedly suggested attacking, but the Holy Lord seemed to have other plans, thinking that it was unrighteous to attack the Turks at this time. The offensive has been repeatedly stranded, Empress Xiao is in the Turks for one more day, that is a little more danger, the relationship between the two countries is like fire and water, and if the time comes, if the time fails to protect the Empress Xiao who is taking refuge, what should I do?
There is also an undercurrent in the palace, Li Shimin is always concerned about the movements of the Turks, thinking about how the strategy should be carried out later, the eldest grandson Wuji is beside him, and there is a table between the two, although the food is abundant, but neither of them moves chopsticks.
"Uncle Guo, now that the Turkic side is fighting fiercely, when is the best time to attack?"
The eldest grandson Wuji's face did not change, he smacked his yellow teeth twice, and then said: "Deciding on the way to attack, that is what the generals who lead the troops to fight should think about, and we have to think about the meaning of the attack and the consequences of starting a war." I have already said before that our dynasty has just formed an alliance with the Turks, and at this time we should recuperate and stop fighting, and if we take the initiative to provoke war, it will create an impression that the surrounding countries are unkind and unjust. The saint might as well think about it, our Datang can still rely on strong troops to resist with one enemy and two enemies, if several countries attack us together, what will happen at that time? β
Li Shimin nodded in admiration, and it can be said that Li Shimin knows how to use troops to fight Li Shimin, and he is invincible. However, as soon as he ascended the throne, he had a lot to learn at once, including foreign policies that determined relations between countries, decrees to develop the agricultural economy, and imperial techniques between kings and ministers...... Every word and every thing done can have immeasurable consequences, but only by being cautious and constantly evaluating the advice of ministers and the information channels at their disposal can we have a basis for our own decisions.
I can't help but sigh that being a king is a lifelong prisoner, imprisoned in the cage of power, although supreme, but all day long, it is difficult to be sincere.
"Uncle Guo thinks far away, and he is ashamed of himself."
The eldest grandson Wuji pretended to be very frightened and bowed as a courtier. In fact, the eldest grandson Wuji is cautious every time he makes suggestions, he is not as straightforward as Wei Zheng, especially because he is the uncle of the country, and pays more attention to the interests between him and other ministers, so as not to fall into the notoriety of a relative interfering in politics, and then the poor nephew is in a dilemma, so he has to make himself a scapegoat. At this point, I have to say that the eldest grandson Wuji is much smarter and more sleek than Xiao Yu, and knows how to advance when he should advance, retreat when he should retreat, and only by retracting freely can he be invincible.
"The saint has been brilliant since he was a child, and now he is even more eloquent, but my words are naturally not enough to compare with the saint."
"When is the right opportunity?"
Eldest Sun Wuji: "Since you want to attack, you must first have a famous division, and it is certain that you can't attack this year." Secondly, the Turks are already at war, so wouldn't it be nice for them to consume themselves first, and we can watch the fire from the other side and reap the benefits? β
Li Shimin: "The Turkic side will definitely think that after the alliance is formed, we will neither rush to the aid nor counterattack, which will definitely make people suspicious. β
The eldest grandson Wuji tapped his fingers on the table twice, and said meaningfully: "Then let's make a show, sometimes the fake one is the same as the real one." β
The two looked at each other and smiled, and Li Shimin suddenly understood what the eldest grandson Wuji was thinking about.
"There is a little girl alone, and she has reached the age of marriage."
The people in the Song State Mansion exchanged heads, and everyone knew that Xiao Yu had tried to persuade him to attack, but the Holy Lord finally decided not to attack the Turks. Empress Xiao is still in the Turks, and Xiao Yu just wants to cut it off directly through war. The saint wants to be friendly now, which is naturally a good thing for Xiao Yu.
Luo Gan was ready at this time, and entered the mansion of the Duke of Song, and as soon as the subordinates inquired about Luo Gan's identity and intentions, they took him directly into the mansion
I saw Xiao Yu sitting in the hall, and when he saw Luo Gan coming, his eyes were shining.
"You're finally here, come and sit here." Xiao Yu beckoned Luo Gan to sit beside him, and Luo Gan should kneel beside Xiao Yu with his legs crossed, looking at the other party's sad face, as if there was something unspeakable.
Luo Gan suppressed his curiosity and answered Xiao Yu seriously and seriously.
"I've got that thing in mind......"
Without waiting for Luo Gan to finish speaking, the other side planned Luo Gan's words, "Don't talk about that matter yet, you can put it later, I need you to help me do something more important now." β
The surroundings were silent, and the noisy voices of the people gradually settled down, making Rogan very unpredictable what would happen next.
"Prepare yourself to go with the messenger and send me an important letter."
Luo Gan was very puzzled, what kind of letter did he still want to send at the moment of the great enemy? Have you really become an errand runner?
"It's true that I want to be a messenger, but isn't I going to Liang Shidu? How did it become a messenger to the Turks again? Didn't you make me an errand runner? β
"Running errands? Hmph, you can be regarded as my henchman in the past, and Song Guogong's henchman will definitely be treated preferentially. β
"I'm afraid it's just a faΓ§ade, the Turkic side is very unstable, I'm afraid I can't come back."
Xiao Yu was very dissatisfied with Luo Gan's calculation, and responded strongly: "Isn't it dangerous to go to Liangshi?" It's all about winning the game, and if you don't agree to my request, you know what the consequences will be. β
Luo Gan was taken aback, although the NPCs were not normal people before, but they all seemed to have no desires, and they would not express their desires so obviously, let alone threaten, the Song Guogong in front of him had a powerful aura, threatening Luo Gan.
Looking back, the door was closed. It's just that I blamed myself for being careless, I didn't bring spirit wine here, I couldn't resist the attack of a group of people with my mere body, and I wasn't a good man who was proficient in martial arts. Subconsciously I had to click on the options in the field of vision, whether there was any way to defeat Xiao Yu through big data analysis.
A few seconds later, Chuang Lai typed a line of words in his field of vision: obedient.
Rogan understood what to do and bowed.
"At this point, then I have a request, if Song Guogong can help, I am willing to send a letter."
Xiao Yu took the initiative and said aggressively: "It's not a small courage to make demands with me." β
Luo Gan is very humble and not arrogant, "Mutual benefit, I don't think there's anything wrong with it." β
Xiao Yu motioned for Luo Gan to have something to say.
"Now that it is the time for the world to elect officials, I want Song Guogong to find a way to let one of my companions, Liu Buwen, have a chance to choose officials fairly. In this way, I am willing to help with this favor. β
