Chapter 439: Punishment for the King of Shu
At this time, Zhou Lie, the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, had already come to Tuyuhun.
Fu Yun, the Khan of Tuyuhun, was first taken aback when he heard that the envoy of the Tang Dynasty had come to Tuyuhun.
He had just finished discussing with Songtsen Gampo and was preparing for them to send troops to attack Liangzhou, while at the same time, Tubo sent troops to attack Yizhou.
In this way, Datang will be equal to three wars, and it will definitely be able to catch Datang off guard.
If he is lucky, he will not only be able to take Liangzhou, but he can even continue to expand their Tuyuhun chassis.
At the very least, they can also snatch up amazing wealth.
Now, there are not a few days left before they start their army.
At this juncture, Datang actually sent an envoy to go, what does it mean?
Fu Yun was actually quite afraid of Datang in his heart, if Datang really knew their intentions in advance, they would definitely lose a lot.
With a feeling of surprise and uncertainty, Fu Yun ceremoniously received Zhou Lie, the envoy of the Tang Dynasty.
And when Fu Yun learned that the intention of the envoy of the Tang Dynasty was to make peace with Tuyuhun, Fu Yun couldn't help but be surprised.
Of course, the object of harmony is naturally not Fu Yun.
It is his son Fu Shun, and the object cannot be Li Shimin's own daughter, but will choose one of the daughters of those county kings, add them as princesses, and then marry.
But even so, it is an unimaginable honor for them Tuyuhun.
Therefore, when Fu Yun heard the news, he hesitated for the first time.
He hesitated for a moment between joining forces with Tubo to attack the Tang Dynasty, and joining forces with the Tang Dynasty to fight against Tubo.
In the end, Fu Yun happily agreed to make peace with Datang.
After giving a large amount of property to the Tang envoy Zhou Lie, he respectfully sent the Tang envoy out of the territory.
Then, Fu Yun found Murong Xiaojun to discuss this matter together.
Murong Xiaojun is Fu Yun's confidant and has won Fu Yun's trust.
Whenever there is a major event, Fu Yun will always seek Murong Xiaojun's opinion.
After Murong Xiaojun arrived, Fu Yun couldn't help asking: "Military advisor, now that Datang wants to make peace with us again, how should we make a trade-off now?" ”
Murong Xiaojun smiled slightly, and then said to Fu Yun: "Khan, the purpose of the Tang Dynasty and our peace is actually just to ask us to help them fight against Tubo. We. In fact, it only acts as a buffer. ”
"Even, if the Tibetans really attack us, the Tang Dynasty may not have time to send troops. They may not even send troops! And what about Tibet? Of course, it is not a sincere alliance with us, it is just to use each other. ”
"However, my subordinates believe that it is more beneficial for us to cooperate with Tibet. When attacking Datang Liangzhou, we can slow down the pace of entering the palace and try not to anger Datang. Let the Tang Dynasty focus its attention mainly on the Turks and Tibetans, and when the time comes, we can adjust the battle plan in time according to the specific situation and strive to maximize the benefits. ”
After listening to Murong Xiaojun's words, Fu Yun couldn't help but nod again and again, and said to Murong Xiaojun: "What the military advisor said is extremely true, that's good, this matter is settled!" Two days later, we ambushed Liangzhou in Datang, and now the army division is ready for battle. ”
……
At this time, Li Su was in the palace of the king of Shu, studying winemaking.
Because Li Su found that the attractiveness of Yizhou has decreased recently, and the number of tourists is decreasing.
This shows that the attractiveness of Yizhou is beginning to decline.
If you can't come up with new attractions, sooner or later the number of tourists will become less and less.
If you want to stay hot, you have to keep introducing new things.
And wine is what Li Su is going to launch next.
The introduction of three new crops has made Datang not worry about the lack of food.
Brewing now is just the right way to increase the added value of these grains.
Now the alcohol of Datang is very low, and the degree of ordinary liquor is about ten degrees, which is equivalent to the degree of beer in later generations.
Don't think that Li Baidou's 100 poems are called poetry immortals, and the amount of wine is amazing.
Not to mention in the Tang Dynasty, even in the Song Dynasty, it did not brew high-grade wine.
And now, Li Su directly ordered people to establish a winery in Yizhou.
The candidate for the director of the distillery, Li Su found Qiao Qi again.
Qiao Qi is the most trusted local in Yizhou after Li Su came to Yizhou.
Qiao Qi's family, who were originally poor, couldn't even afford to wear pants.
And now? In the entire Xiaohe Village, Qiao Qi can be said to be the first.
Even if it is placed in the entire Yizhou, Qiao Qi can be ranked on the top of the list faintly.
All of this was brought to him by Li Su, the king of Shu.
Therefore, no matter what errand the King of Shu arranges for him, Qiao Qi will complete it conscientiously.
Even if he is worth now, he can do nothing and be a rich man in peace.
Soon, Yizhou Distillery was successfully established in Yizhou.
The distillery is very large, and several sake pools have been built in it.
Of course, the early production will definitely not be able to keep up.
But Li Su decided to go straight to the point.
For the time being, sweet potatoes are used as raw materials for sake brewing.
Well, in fact, the best raw material for brewing is actually sorghum, or brewed with five grains.
But who made the most crop in Yizhou now sweet potatoes?
Anyway, as long as it can produce high-quality wine, it will definitely sell well in Datang.
As for the quality, it will be done slowly in the later stage.
In the early days of the winery, the most important thing is actually the secrecy of the process.
As a winery, Li Su did not have too good craftsmanship.
Once the process is leaked, others will definitely be able to make high-quality wine when they get it, and then compete with them.
Of course, Li Su wanted to avoid this happening, and handed over the winery to Qiao Qi, Li Su was still extremely relieved.
And when Li Su was busy working on the winery, Xiao Liuzi came to report that he had a messenger coming.
Hearing the news, Li Su couldn't help frowning slightly.
What's going on?
If it was an ordinary matter, there was no need to send a messenger to read the decree.
But if something happened, why didn't I get half a cent of the news in advance?
Puzzled, Li Su hurriedly returned to the Jiedu Embassy to greet the Qincha.
This time, Qin Cha is an acquaintance, Kong Yingda.
Seeing Kong Yingda, Li Su felt a little embarrassed.
In the past, when he was in Chang'an, Li Su was Kong Yingda's husband for a period of time and taught him pinyin knowledge.
Then, when he was a gentleman, Li Su asked Kong Yingda several times, but Kong Yingda couldn't answer and was slapped in the palm of his hand.
Then on the day of graduation, Kong Yingda also threatened him.
But after that, the two never saw each other much.
Now that they are meeting in Yizhou, Li Su suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
However, Kong Yingda's face did not have the kind of hostility that the enemy met, and the expression on his face was a little complicated.
