Chapter 422 Ice and snow with red face

However, the northwest is cold and snowy, but Li Xian is happy to take a walk now that he has nothing to do, although he can't actually see any scenery in this snowy sky. However, this made the Tang Army, the brigade responsible for defending the city, gradually familiar with this prince, and the bold even dared to step forward and say a few words. Since Li Xian has never been smiling with disgust, over time, wherever he goes, there must be a bunch of people around him.

At this time, the head of the city, the torch burning with animal fat was blazing, and it was already a little dark, and the soldiers wrapped in thick fur were patrolling and stamping their feet, but many people's eyes were looking at a figure standing on the other side. When Li Xian came up today, it was not as good as in the past, as if he was worried about something, so after observing the words and expressions, everyone hid far away, only looking at the thin entourage with their eyes.

"Your Highness, Miss Shen Ruo has gone back, presumably there will be no problem in Chang'an. It's windy here, so let's go back to the palace! ”

Hearing this soft voice behind him, Li Xian turned his head in a daze, and saw that Ah Luo's face was already red from the cold, and his lips were even a little bruised, he couldn't help but pity and love, and without thinking, he took off the cloak on his body and tied it for her, and gently grabbed her hand in the palm of his hand and covered it, and said in his mouth: "I told you, this city is not where you came, and you are not as good as me, why do you suffer this hardship?" ”

Ah Luo saw that many people not far away were staring at this with wide eyes, and couldn't help but be ashamed and anxious, but he couldn't resist Li Xian's strength when he pulled his hand hard, and finally had to plead: "Your Highness, be cautious, this is in public!" And this batch of winds. What does it look like on me......"

Li Xian glanced at the soldiers around him. Seeing that everyone turned their heads as if they didn't see it, he immediately smiled and said, "What are you afraid of, people must think that I care about my subordinates." Who would dare to say otherwise? They all know your identity, even if you see it, it doesn't matter! People say that red sleeves add fragrance, if your red sleeves are frostbitten, who will take care of me? ”

Jokes aside, he still let go of Ah Luo's hand as he said, turned around and stood with his hands in his hands, as if he was concentrating on looking at the dark earth.

The battle was won temporarily. The oil and water are also temporarily sufficient, but the precarious decline of Tuguhun has not been completely resolved, and Pei Xingjian's resolute pacification action in the four towns of Anxi has not ended.

To tell the truth, it is an indisputable fact that if Tibet is strong, Hexi will be in danger, and if Tibet is weak, Hexi will be in danger. As a well-known Silk Road, the Hexi Corridor is of great strategic and symbolic significance. It's a shame to lose it.

What he told Lao Pei at the beginning, did Lao Pei ever care?

The ghost thought of Pei Xing's frugality in accepting apprentices, and his mind turned back to his unconscious apprentice. Compared with the two Su Dulu brothers, Murong Boy is a little decent. It's just that doing things inevitably comes with some impulse, but the nature is still affectionate and righteous. But that's normal. If Tuyuhun really produced a character like Mao Dunshan, he would not be willing to be given to the Tang Dynasty by Princess Honghua.

The essence of the fierce wolf king, Murong Fu does not have it yet, so it is still quite malleable, and there is no need to worry about backlash in the future for the time being. Of course, if Murong Kid is allowed to continue to stay in Tuyuhun, there may be a wolf king in countless trials and tribulations. However, what Datang needs is not a wolf king, but a loyal hound!

"By the way, the West Sea has frozen, and you have been nesting in the palace of Shudun City since you came, are you interested in seeing the ice of the West Sea?"

Wearing a thick cloak, Ah Luo looked at Li Xian's back in a daze, quite distracted, and when he turned around at first glance, he couldn't help but sigh when he heard this sentence. Although she was a little surprised, when she thought that her trip was not to enjoy the mountains and rivers, she thought for a moment and shook her head: "It's freezing this day, and it's just to see the scenery, forget it, as long as I can stay here, I'll be satisfied." ”

"Little fool, the fortress on the top of the cow's heart pile over there is almost built, do you think I just went to see the scenery of the West Sea?" Li Xian glanced at her angrily, and then said with a smile, "I heard that there is Longju Island in the West Sea, if it weren't for the thousands of miles of ice, then you would have to take a boat to go up, and now you have to go up and take a look when you encounter the ice." The West Sea is located between Fu Qi City and the state, and winter is a shortcut to the army, but our army is not used to taking the ice road after all, but as long as the Tuyuhun people cross the West Sea, they will also reach the state! ”

A Luo grew up in the Central Plains, and after entering the palace, he only ran between Chang'an and Luoyang, and only knew that there were snowy ice fields in the world when he arrived in the northwest. At this time, listening to Li Xian gushing about the scenery such as the salt lake and glacier, and even telling many beautiful myths, as if she had seen and heard it with her own eyes, she couldn't help but become more and more moved, and soon she was at a loss.

"You're really not worried about the situation in Chang'an?"

"What's the use of just worrying?" Li Xian shrugged his shoulders and smiled slyly, "Now that there are state garrisons near the West Sea, if I go to the West Sea, maybe there will be people who will come to offer their courtesy, don't you know everything."

Sister Shen Ruo is here, and it is common for Qu Tu's family to send some family letters, but if the letters continue, maybe I will be gossiped, so I might as well take the initiative! ”

"But what about the Tibetans?"

Li Xian waved his sleeves with an incomprehensible attitude, and the smile on his face suddenly became brighter: "Everything has been negotiated, why are they still here, do you want me to support them for a lifetime?" Naturally, they are kept here, what should they do! ”

Speaking of this, he suddenly let out a long sigh: "I don't know how expensive firewood and rice are at home, I now know that although the work of prisoners of war is high, it is also costly to eat and drink, if it weren't for the fact that a lot of cattle and sheep were captured this time, even if they were only given two meals a day, no matter how low the food standard was, there would be no money for raising them for another three months!" Fortunately, the city that should be built is almost over, and after another half a month, Gegamuxia can lead people back! ”

Thinking that Sanjidab had spent a lot of money but could only redeem one of the tsampo back, Arlo finally couldn't help but laugh. And this bright smile is naturally even more moving under the firelight. A few sergeants in the distance overheard it, and they were all whispering in twos and threes, with a knowing smile on their faces.

Regarding the assassination of Sanjidab, Li Xian quickly found the "murderer". When the bloody three heads were sent to Sanjidab, Rao was the one who had killed countless people on the battlefield, but he couldn't help frowning. Thinking that it would be unwise to continue the investigation, he also took advantage of the situation and went down the stairs. While he continued to argue with the negotiators, Ge Jiamuxia, the head of the Wulu clan, sent Chi Ma Lun with twenty followers to follow Li Xian to Niuxindui on the edge of the West Sea to receive the prisoners.

As the future Zanmeng, although the woman is dressed as a man this time, she is still extremely luxurious. Zandani's brocade robe has a fiery red trim on the sleeves embroidered with multicolored bird patterns. The robe was covered with a lamb vest, and the brocade collar of the Sinone brocade glistened in the sun. Not only that, but she also wore a jewel-encrusted silk belt around her waist, a short amber collar hanging from her chest, and a long necklace worn in pearls and jade that hung low, showing even more luxury.

Li Xian was originally just wearing a homely robe, but before leaving, Ah Luo saw Chi Maren's outfit, and he was immediately dragged in to dress up again, and when he came out again, he was almost wearing the complicated prince's formal clothes.

"Isn't this a comparison, is it useful?"

In any case, he didn't expect Ah Luo to bring so many lines, Li Xian could only accept this result helplessly, and after getting on the horse, he saw Cheng Bohu and Xue Dingshan being overjoyed. Seeing that both of them were in armor, he couldn't wait to go back and change into his leather armor.

"Liulang, you just accept your fate, you, the prince and the pacification ambassador, hold the festival to appease Tuyuhun, how can you do it without a scene, at least you can't let a Tubo woman steal the limelight, right?"

Cheng Bohu squeezed his eyes as he spoke, and then looked at Ah Li, who was whispering to Ah Luo, who was behind him, and Chi Malun, who was surrounded by his entourage, and suddenly sighed twice: "Compared with Jin Mingjia, this Chi Malun is still capable and strong, if it is placed in my Tang Dynasty, it may be the second big sister, haha!" ”

Li Xian glared at him angrily, and he didn't bother to see this guy in general, so he motioned to get on the horse and hurry. Because it was in the territory of Tuyuhun, which was actually controlled by the Tang army, he only brought 500 people from his own army, and Murong Fu with him. As he galloped past many small tribes, he was in a better mood when he saw that everyone had already shown the posture of settling down again, and many children were not even afraid to look at their horse team.

Along the way, Chi Malen rarely talked to others, let alone said a word to Li Xian, until she saw those freshly baked earthen cities by the West Sea, she changed color slightly, but she still didn't take the initiative to talk to people. And after Li Xian brought out a certain prisoner representative and generously let her meet alone, she really felt a kind of pressure.

Since in the name of holding the festival to appease, Li Xian comforted several Tuyuhun tribes around the West Sea - needless to say, seeing the Tang army building the city with such fanfare, several tribal leaders were very worried for a while, and they were relieved when they heard that this fortress would not advance further.

The herdsmen have seen it, and the officials who have come from the state and surrounding states and counties are naturally indispensable, among them, Langzhou Thorn Shi Luo Yuanzhou, who has been praised for Qu Tushen Ruo's merits, has naturally been treated differently. However, among the many green and crimson official uniforms waiting to be seen, Li Xian found a somewhat strange figure.

It was a distinctly Western-style man, about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, dressed in a very exaggerated manner. Of course, after seeing Chi Malen's dress, although that guy was gorgeously dressed, he was not very ostentatious. However, with a head of fiery red hair, Li Xian's eyes still locked on him at first sight. Who is this guy?
