"Now that the situation on the peninsula is favorable to us, it is a great opportunity to eliminate them, and I have decided to send Xue Qing to lead troops to aid Silla." Li Chengqian said to Xue Rengui.

He had just received another request from the Silla envoy to rescue Silla, and Li Chengqian agreed without hesitation, so he called Xue Rengui and planned to send him.

"Your Majesty, rest assured! As long as the ministers are there, they will ensure that Silla will not lose an inch of land. Xue Rengui said.

"Nope! I don't want you to stop Silla and defend the territory, I want you to kill the enemy, destroy Baekje, and then take Goguryeo. ”

"You lead the troops to the expedition first, and I will soon send people to lead the troops again, this time I will definitely solve the peninsula problem completely, with the long-cherished wish of the first emperor." Li Chengqian said.

This time, Li Chengqian called Xue Rengui to come, but he didn't ask him to help Silla repel the enemy, even if you repel the enemy once, as long as the other party does not die, he will definitely come back again.

It is also a trouble to always be like this, the Tang army will withdraw from Silla, Goguryeo will launch an attack on Silla again, and Silla will ask the Tang Dynasty for help again, and so on, and it will never be a head.

After a long time, Datang can't withstand such consumption and tossing, if you want to solve this problem once and for all, the best way is to completely eliminate it and never suffer in the future.

"Your Majesty's intention is to ask the ministers to destroy Baekje desperately and cut off Goguryeo's arm, so that Silla can not only resolve the crisis, but also unite with Cheng Mingzhen and Su Dingfang to fight back against Goguryeo."

"Instead, he led a large army and formed a two-sided attack with them, annihilating Goguryeo in one fell swoop." Xue Rengui said.

"That's right! That's what I mean! This time, although you lead the troops to go, I will ask Liu Renliang, Liu Renyuan and others to send troops to help you. Li Chengqian said.

"Wechen obeys!" Xue Rengui said.

"Good! You go back and prepare first, and then the edict and the fish charm will be delivered to your house. Li Chengqian said.

"No! Wechen retires!" Xue Rengui bowed and retreated.

Whether Goguryeo can be eliminated or not depends on what kind of results can be achieved in this war against Baekje, and in any case, Goguryeo must be eliminated no matter what, so as to eliminate the hidden danger of Liaodong.

Li Chengqian had already ordered craftsmen from various coastal areas to build new warships, and there should already be a large number of warships that could be used.

"How is the construction of warships everywhere now?" After Xue Rengui left, Li Chengqian asked Wang Quan.

In order to destroy Goguryeo, it was necessary to rely on both land and water, and even if the army was hindered, it could reach the peninsula by sea by warship and carry out a blow against Goguryeo.

If you want to attack from the sea, this warship is an indispensable means of transportation, and at the same time, sea transportation is more convenient and cost-effective than land transportation.

"There are reports from all over the world, including the warships that are about to be completed, and Datang now has more than 200 warships." Wang Quan replied.

"When will it be completely completed?" Li Chengqian said.

These warships had to be put into the battlefield entirely, and in addition to transporting soldiers, they were used as transport ships to transport grain and grass.

"It will take about half a month to complete." Wang Quan said.

"If this doesn't work, fly the pigeon and pass the book immediately, let them speed up the progress, and the shorter the time it will be completed, the better." Li Chengqian said.

"No!" Wang Quan received the order and summoned a eunuch to let him do this.

A eunuch hurried over from a distance and saluted Li Chengqian: "Enlighten everyone! Taiwei eldest grandson Wuji asks to see! ”

"Let him go to the Liangyi Hall and wait first, no matter what happens, let him wait first." Li Chengqian said.

"No!" The eunuch was ordered to retreat.

Li Chengqian explained some things to Wang Quan for him to do, and after calling Liu Renliang, Liu Renyuan and others to make arrangements, he got up and returned to the Liangyi Hall to see the eldest grandson Wuji.

This time against the Goguryeo coalition army, Liu Renyuan led the army, and Liu Renliang led 13,000 soldiers to set off by land and water by warship, and cooperated with Xue Rengui and others to eliminate the Baekje coalition army.

"Old minister, see Your Majesty!" Seeing Li Chengqian coming back from outside, the eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly got up and saluted.

"Uncle doesn't have to be polite! Throne! Li Chengqian said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The eldest grandson Wuji thanked him.

"Uncle is so anxious to find me, but what big things have happened?" Li Chengqian asked.

Li Chengqian recognized the ability of the eldest grandson Wuji very much, not to mention anything else, the eldest grandson Wuji is indeed a rare minister.

"Some time ago, Your Majesty didn't issue an edict ordering the old minister and others to revise the new ceremony, but the old minister was fortunate to live up to his life and it has been completed! Please also ask Your Majesty to take a look. The eldest grandson Wuji said that, and handed over their revised new gift to Li Chengqian for a look.

"Uncle didn't mention it, I almost forgot, and there is this kind of thing, I remember that some time ago, the etiquette document of the ceremonial official was not recorded, and there were many inappropriate places."

"Dr. Taichang, Xiao Chucai and others thought that his subordinates had no right to negotiate the funeral, Xu Jingzong and others agreed very much, so they burned the "National Shirt", and I ordered my uncle and others to revise the new etiquette." Li Chengqian said.

Some time ago, the ceremonial officer came to him and told him a lot about various etiquette things, as a state of etiquette, Datang naturally attaches great importance to etiquette.

Not long after the ceremonial officer finished his statement, Dr. Taichang Xiao Chucai came to him again and told him a lot.

Only then did Li Chengqian decide to revise and improve the etiquette during the Zhenguan period, and this important burden naturally fell into the hands of the eldest grandson Wuji.

As a patriarch of the Three Dynasties, he has participated in the revision of the law and etiquette many times, and he is the most suitable person, not one of them.

"That's right! It is because the "National Shirt" was burned, so there is a lack of murderous etiquette. The six rites are missing one of the fierce rites, and this has become the five rites. ”

According to: since ancient times, crowns, marriages, funerals, sacrifices, village drinking, and meeting are the "six rites", and auspicious, jia, guest, military, and fierce are the "five rites". ”

""National Shirt" actually refers to the funeral rites of the emperor and queen, and cannot include all the murderous ceremonies." The eldest grandson Wuji said.

"Because of this, I will order my uncle and others to revise the new rites, and I hope that after this revision, it can be continued forever without having to revise it again." Li Chengqian said.

After Li Chengqian finished speaking, he carefully looked at the new gift handed over by the eldest grandson Wuji.

"Not bad! Uncle's revised new rite is detailed and clear, I can see it!" Li Chengqian said.

"Since Your Majesty has no opinion! Then please issue an edict to your majesty to promulgate this new rite to the world, and from now on, all etiquette will be done in accordance with the new rite!" The eldest grandson Wuji said.

"I'm going to give an edict!" Li Chengqian said.

Wang Quan hurriedly stepped forward to polish the ink and spread out the holy decree, and Li Chengqian dipped his pen in ink and wrote the holy decree.

After writing it, it was handed to Wang Quandao: "Send it to the door of the Chinese book." ”

"No!" Wang Quan took the decree and turned around and ordered the eunuch to send it.

The emperor's edict must be signed by the officials of the three provinces, and after the ministry has no problems in reviewing it, it can be executed and issued by the province of Shangshu.

As long as one of the three provinces cannot be passed, the edict will be invalid, and even if it is issued, it will be useless and useless.

In order to better carry out the order, the emperor would usually install henchmen in the three provinces, so that he would not have to be afraid of someone refuting his will.
