"Actually, I'm not very good-tempered." Gu Qing looked at him and said to the surrounding villagers: "Break his leg, just say I beat him!" I'm responsible for what happens! ”

Seeing that the people in the village were all gathered around to make a move, the big cannibal stepped back step by step, "What do you want to do, I am a member of the big cannibal royal family." ”

"Do it!" Gu Qing shouted.

A group of village names began to beat the big cannibal, and Li Tai followed Gu Qing to get into the carriage again, "Is this really okay, the big cannibal is coming to Datang for the first time." ”

"Are we afraid of them?"

"Not really." Li Tai also said with a smile, "As long as the big cannibals dare to come, no matter how many Datang people come, they can destroy this group of barbarians." ”

All the way to Chang'an and entering the palace, Gu Qing also found that many princes also came here, and some powerful people outside Chang'an also saw Li Ran of the Li family in Zhao County, as well as the head of the Wang family, and the people of the Cui family, and many powerful people from all over Chang'an.

"Gu Qing." Li Ran stepped forward to greet Gu Qing.

Gu Qing also saluted.

"You are the new county candidate Gu Qing," an elderly magnate asked.

"Exactly down there." Gu Qing also replied.

Helplessly, Gu Qing's fame is too big now, this Gu Qing, who has reached a rich country, although he is now only a county candidate, he has no power in the court, and he has no official position and power, but no one will underestimate such a character, not relying on his ancestors, not being helped by others, he has achieved a new magnate and a leader in the younger generation.

With the opening of the palace gate, Gu Qing followed everyone into the palace. All the way to the Taiji Palace, Li Er entertained everyone with a wine banquet.

At the banquet, various powerful families told Li Er about the changes in various places these days and their thoughts on the future.

Gu Qing felt bored and sat in his place, drinking wine without a sip.

"Gu Qing, why don't you speak?"

Li Er naturally paid attention to Gu Qing.

Gu Qing also hurriedly said, "I wish Your Majesty all the best, a prosperous start to the year, good health, longevity and heaven, and longevity!" ”

After saying a paragraph, Li Er's face was stiff and even a little blushing, what was going on with this sudden sycophant, looking at the faces of everyone present, Li Er said again, "Gu Qing, what do you think of this matter?"

I didn't listen to what these people said at all, Gu Qing just said, "It's good." ”

"Then you also think that it is good to make the Wa Kingdom a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty," Li Er wondered.

"No way!" Gu Qing immediately vetoed: "Your Majesty, this is absolutely not good!" ”

"Didn't you think it was good just now, why don't you think it's okay now?" Li Er looked at Gu Qing, Wang Qin on the side received a report from the little eunuch, and then whispered the news to Li Er's ear, and when he heard the news, Li Er glanced at Gu Qing with a strange face.

"Now the Japanese are willing to be our vassals, but the Japanese are not sincere." Gu Qing hurriedly explained, "If the Wa Kingdom wants to become a subsidiary of the Tang Dynasty, it must show sincerity. ”

"Sincerity" Li Er thought thoughtfully.

"Yes sincerity!" Gu Qing emphasized, "This Japanese country wants us to become a subsidiary of our Datang, so we must give us benefits, if this Japanese country becomes a subsidiary of the Tang Dynasty, we will naturally have to help if something happens to the Japanese country." ”

"You're talking about tribute," Li Er understood.

"Pretty much the same." Now that Li Er understood, Gu Qing also said directly, "Your Majesty, the Wa Kingdom is a good place, and we must make the best use of it." ”

Li Er understood what Gu Qing meant.

At this point, the magnates also began to argue about their views on the Wa Kingdom, just casually talking, the real arrangement also requires Fang Xuanling's eldest grandson Wuji, and these advisors and His Majesty will make a decision.

Right now, Li Er said something that worried him, "Now that Goguryeo is in turmoil, what do you think, Gu Qing?"

Speaking of Goguryeo, at this time Goguryeo was in chaos, Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla were all in power, and the whole Goguryeo was out of a chaotic period, and it was even more messy in terms of political affairs.

Judging from the failure of Emperor Sui's Eastern Crusade, Goguryeo already knew that Guanzhong was a powerful country, and Goguryeo, a small country, was not as big as several state capitals of the Tang Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, a little Goguryeo is not enough to worry about." Gu Qing smiled contemptuously, "If you want to solve the chaos in Goguryeo, it can be easily solved by sending an assassin with a team of soldiers and horses in the court." ”

"The envoys of Goguryeo have come to see me." Li Er said, "Goguryeo hopes to borrow our firearms to calm the war. ”

"Your Majesty doesn't need to." Gu Qing said again.

Li Er's face was ugly, and Li Ran, who was sitting on the side, represented the Li family of Zhao County, looking at His Majesty's face and Gu Qing's face with disdain, thinking about the conversation between the two monarchs and ministers, he naturally understood something, "Your Majesty, the little girl thinks that now is a good time for us to conquer Goguryeo." ”

"Oh," Li Er's face changed a little when he heard this answer.

Li Ran continued, "The little girl thinks that now that the political situation in Goguryeo is turbulent and surrounded by strong enemies, we can take Goguryeo and even Silla and Baekje in the name of sending troops to help Goguryeo. ”

"This woman's mind is delicate enough." Gu Qing secretly wanted to look at her in his heart.

Li Ran noticed that his gaze was also Gu Qing smiled slightly.

I have to say that the eldest granddaughter of the Li family is very beautiful, and she has a very temperamental look and a smile, and several powerful children of the family on the side have long taken a fancy to this Li Ran, but when they saw this Li Ran smiling at Gu Qing, they were unconvinced.

The feast continued until after noon.

Gu Qing walked out of the Taiji Palace alone, and at the end Li Ran also walked at the end and asked Gu Qing, "Are you pretending to be confused"

"What do you mean," Gu Qing said in a low voice as he walked.

"You understand that now is the best time to take Goguryeo, and Your Majesty has tried to ask you several times, but you always shirk and do not attack."

"Why fight an unnecessary battle?" Gu Qing shook the fan in his hand, "Your Majesty is just to satisfy your own desires, in order to prove your status, the emperor failed in Yang Guangsan's expedition to Goguryeo, which made the former Sui slump, but the previous dynasty could not do it, but this dynasty did it, and naturally it can establish its own majesty, and this is what Your Majesty wants." ”

"Actually, you can go along with Your Majesty." Li Ran said.

Gu Qing looked at the powerful people in front of him, "Can't you go back to your Li family well, do you have to turn back?"
