Chapter 266: Wang Xuance
Who knows if they are really Li Ling's descendants, just because he has Han Chinese blood and claims to be Li Ling's descendants, he can't pull people to recognize any ancestors!
What if their ancestors didn't recognize them? What if the ancestors are not happy?
"Thank God Khan! The Jiankun Governor's Mansion will guard the border for the Tang Dynasty for generations. Flashing Dance," Qu Azhan said excitedly.
"Good! Raise your glasses and fill this glass of wine to celebrate today's great day! Li Er raised his glass and motioned for everyone to drink together.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations to the Governor! Everyone congratulated Li Er and Qu Azhan on the lost bowl.
The banquet lasted until midnight, during which the beauties of the Yaks also performed a piece of exotic singing and dancing to cheer everyone up.
Many people were drunk and drunk, and in the end the prince ordered the guards to send them back to their respective homes.
Li Er not only set up the Jiankun Governor's Mansion in the Knotted Bone Tribe, which was subordinate to the Yanran Metropolitan Protectorate, but also set up Qilian Prefecture in the location of the Ashid Shijian Tribe, which was subordinate to the Governor of Yingzhou.
As the national strength of the Tang Dynasty became stronger and stronger, the Siyi monarchs around the Tang Dynasty rushed to send people to Chang'an to pay tribute and show their loyalty to Li Er.
For fear that Li Er would be unhappy, give them a crime of disrespect, and send troops to attack them, they would be unlucky.
Therefore, on the first day of the first lunar month every year, the number of envoys who come to pay tribute is hundreds or thousands, so Li Er is very proud. Flash Dance
On the tenth day of the first year of a certain year, Li Er summoned the envoys of Zhuhu, and the complacent Li Er showed off his exploits to the ministers around him.
"Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty has been fighting for 30 years, exhausted the Central Plains, and has gained little.
Based on this sentence alone, it is enough to see how high-spirited Li Er is.
Soon after the Tang Dynasty sent away the Hangas, Songwaiman and Khitan successively returned to the Tang Dynasty, making the area controlled by the Tang Dynasty expand again.
At the same time, the Western Turkic Khan Ashina Desire Valley saw that his people had betrayed and left, so he fled to Tocharo, and the Western Turk Yehu Ashina Helu led his troops to the Tang Dynasty.
"Your Majesty! Wang Xuance, the envoy of Tianzhu, came to report! "The relevant departments of the early dynasty presented a self-report to Li Er.
Wang Xuance, a native of Luoyang, Henan Province, Tang Dynasty, birth and death year unknown, is a famous diplomat in the Tang Dynasty, and Xuanzang is a fellow villager.
From the seventeenth year of Zhenguan to the first year of Longshuo (64~661), three envoys to Tianzhu, that is, the envoys of India (one said four to India).
The most brilliant thing I have ever done in my life is to destroy Tianzhu and a country with the power of one person.
Even if Wang Xuance made such a big feat, he still did not get the attention of the imperial court, it was really a famous general of the Tang Dynasty like a cloud, and a heavy minister like rain, and his deeds were not enough to see.
At this time, Li Er had already taken the report sent back to Chang'an by Wang Xuance from Wang Yuan's hand and opened it to watch.
During this period, Li Er's face changed uncertainly, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Everyone didn't know why, and they didn't understand what Wang Xuance wrote in the newspaper?
Among the crowd, only Li Chengqian, the traverser, knew what was going on, and the others were full of doubts in their hearts.
It was really Li Er's face that changed too quickly, and before they had time to figure it out, Li Er's face returned to normal.
"Your Majesty! I don't know what Wang Xuance wrote in the newspaper? Just now I saw His Majesty's expression of annoyance! Chu Suiliang, who had just replaced Ma Zhou, was newly promoted to Zhongshu Ling, and asked.
"The king of Zhongtianzhu, the king of Magadha, passed away, and the country of Zhongtianzhu fell into great chaos, and the traitor Aroshuna established himself as the master, usurped the treasures of Tianzhu, and pretended to be the king."
"Not only that, Alona Shun also attacked my envoys of the Tang Dynasty, Wang Xuance, Jiang Shiren and Bianji led fifty cavalry to fight hard, and finally they were captured alive."
"Alona Shun plundered all the tributes paid by various countries to our Tang Dynasty, and in the end, Wang Xuance fled at night when the other party's guards were not paying attention, and fled all the way to the western border of Tibet." Li Er said.
Tianzhu, that is, ancient India, is divided into five Tianzhu, east, west, south, north, and middle, with Tianzhu being the most powerful, and the other four Tianzhu are all subject to it.
Although Li Er's words are an understatement, everyone knows how dangerous and thrilling it is.
"What? Zhongtianzhu's Alonashun is really hateful! Your Majesty! The minister thought that he should immediately issue an edict and ordered the Anxi Protectorate to send troops to attack Zhongtianzhu, and dared to attack my Tang envoys, and he would not be spared. The eldest grandson Wuji said.
In recent years, Datang's national strength has been thriving, and its strength is even more than it used to be! is just a Zhongtianzhu country, and he dares to provoke Datang, and he doesn't give them some color to see, he doesn't know how powerful Datang is.
"Situ doesn't need to worry, I just saw a stretch between His Majesty's eyebrows, maybe this matter will take a turn for the better, and listen to Your Majesty." Li Chengqian said.
As a traverser, he naturally understands the development of the situation, Wang Xuance is known as a figure who destroys a country by one person, and Tianzhu is not an opponent.
But then again, the strength of this third brother is also poor, fighting in his own territory, and the army has an advantage.
It can be said that he has exhausted the right time, place and people, and in this way, he will be defeated by Wang Xuance's thousands of people.
It's no wonder that Alonashun was captured alive, and the family was escorted back to Chang'an, and he dared to provoke Datang if he was not strong, this is not looking for death!
Hearing Li Chengqian's words, the ministers waited for Li Er's next step.
"Wang Xuance took the edict I gave him, and recruited more than 8,000 soldiers and horses from Tubo and Nibra to defeat Zhongtianzhu, defeat the Tianzhu army, and capture Alona Shun and his family."
"Now that Wang Xuance is escorting them back and waiting for my judgment on them, Wang Xuance has also brought back a Tianzhu monk who claims to know the art of immortality, and this person is more than two hundred years old." Li Er said.
Having said so much, for Li Er, immortality is the key, and nothing else is anything.
Everyone nodded, and they all felt that Wang Xuance was very reasonable to do this, this was the posture that a powerful imperial envoy should have.
Although Wang Xuance defeated the Tianzhu army and captured Alonashun and his family alive, it can be regarded as a meritorious thing, but for these court officials, it is really nothing.
"Father! This time, Wang Xuance was able to defeat the Tianzhu Army, which was also a great achievement, and his sons thought that they should be rewarded. Li Chengqian saluted.
"The prince is right! I have my own opinions on this matter, and when Wang Xuance returns, it will not be too late to give a reward. Li Er said.
He didn't take Wang Xuance's matter too seriously, after all, Tianzhu was nothing in Li Er, and even in the eyes of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces.
No one took Tianzhu in their eyes, and Wang Xuance's little credit was really nothing.
