Chapter 1047: The Ancient Tea Horse Road
As a royal family, although she enjoys the glory and wealth, she must also take on the responsibility of the royal family, and she will dedicate her life to the royal family at any time.
Even if it is the pearl of Erhai Sea, for the sake of Dali, Duan Baifeng must sacrifice everything he has, not to mention that Li Jing is handsome, he is a hero of the world, and he is also the best candidate for Langjun in the hearts of women, even if it is a crooked melon and cracked date, in front of national interests, Duan Baifeng must go.
"Brother Wang, aren't you afraid that the Gao family will trouble you?" Duan Baifeng's heart was cold for a while, although Duan Mingcheng said it was high-sounding, as if he was thinking about himself, but in fact he was still thinking about himself.
"With the support of the Tang Emperor, don't say it's Gao Zhenyuan, even if it's Gao Liangcheng, he doesn't dare to do anything to me?" Duan Mingcheng said proudly: "At this time, who dares to offend the Tang Emperor, the Tang Emperor has even destroyed the Great Song Dynasty, is it difficult to eliminate a Dali?" My father will also agree to this marriage, with the support of the Tang Emperor, the Gao family will become the enemy of my Duan family, and the Duan family will kill the entire Gao family to avenge the oppression of the Duan family over the years. ”
Duan Mingcheng's face was hideous, for many years, the Duan family has been oppressed by the Gao family, and even for a period of time, even the throne was seized by the Gao family, although the Duan family did not say anything on the surface, but in their hearts they wanted to kill the Duan family, there was no chance before, but now it is different, if Li Jing accepts Duan Baifeng, Li Jing is the backstage of the Duan family, who dares to provoke the Duan family, all the people in Dali, the wind direction will change, and if they support the Duan family again, the Gao family will be abandoned.
Duan Baifeng felt bitter in his heart when he heard this, so he could only nod and said: "It's just that this matter is very important, my brother may not be able to call the shots, Dali's military power is in the hands of the Gao family, and the Tang Emperor is wise and powerful, but the whip is beyond his reach, and he may not be able to support my Duan family in time." It still needs to be considered in the long run. Duan Baifeng has already accepted his fate, he is going to marry someone anyway, and marrying Li Jing is also a very ordinary thing.
"Not bad." Duan Mingcheng smiled and said, "Feng'er, if you become the concubine of the Great Emperor, you will rely on your snort as a brother in the future." Duan Mingcheng was very happy in his heart, Duan Baifeng was good friends with him, and Li Jing was also his brother-in-law, so when he returned to Dali, wouldn't this throne be his own? Thinking of his appearance in Dali in the future, Duan Mingcheng didn't want to say the pride in his heart, now he can't wait to return to Dali City now to see what the faces of those people are.
Duan Baifeng felt desolate in his heart when he heard this, his brother looked the same as back then, but in fact, he had long been confused by power, and what he was thinking about was not himself, but the throne of Dali, which could not but be said to be a kind of sadness.
"Brother Wang, this matter still needs to be considered in the long run, at least we must be careful in front of others, and we can't leak half a sentence, otherwise, you and I must be careful in Dali." Duan Baifeng sighed deeply.
"Why, you and I still have to look at other people's faces and act? Sister, you're too careful. Duan Mingcheng couldn't help laughing, pointed to his sister and said: "The world is so big, Datang will definitely set the world in the future, and the whole Dali is the same." ”
"Brother, it's better to be careful." Duan Baifeng admonished again.
"Feng'er, don't worry, I know all this, before it happens, I will definitely be careful." Duan Mingcheng seemed to see his sister-in-law's worries, and immediately patted his chest and said, "Come to think of it, as long as Your Majesty summons me and waits, the people of Dali will not dare to do anything to me." ”
Duan Baifeng sighed in his heart, his brother still thought about things too simply, on the surface, he might have heard his words, but in his heart, he actually didn't listen to them. Simply speaking, there is still some truth in his words, after all, Duan Mingcheng was summoned by Li Jing, which is equivalent to putting on a legal coat, in front of Dali, a weak country, Datang is like a giant, without Li Jing's permission, no one dares to shake Duan Ming's composition, unless Dali is ready to fight with Datang.
Over the years, there have been continuous rebellions in Dali, even the Gao family has died a lot, and Dali has become even weaker.
It's just that his brother is so rampant, can he really succeed in the end? Duan Baifeng suddenly didn't have any confidence in his heart. The Gao family has been in Dali for many years and has mastered military power, and the Duan family doesn't know how much effort it has spent, and they don't care about the Gao family. Duan Baifeng actually didn't have any confidence in his heart. It's just that as a woman, in the face of this kind of thing, there is nothing to do, so I can only let it go.
And at this moment in the Tang Palace, Du Xing sent some information about Dali one after another, if Duan Baifeng was here, he would definitely be surprised to find that there was not only the relationship between the Duan family and the Gao family, but even some important passes in Dali appeared in front of Li Jing, and the army layout, grain and grass distribution, and transportation arteries appeared in front of Li Jing.
"Your Majesty, Dali is different from other places, there are not many formal official roads, many people live in the mountains, and even some important passes are between the two mountains, the geographical location is very unique, which is why the Great Song Dynasty coveted the wealth of Dali, and did not take Dali into the bag, the army of the Great Song Dynasty could not attack Dali." Duchenne pointed to the map on one wall and said, "Simply put, there is another kind of people who can come and go freely in and out of these places. ”
"Are you talking about the Ancient Tea Horse Road? Those caravans? Li Jing thought of the Ancient Tea Horse Road, which was a commercial passage that appeared in response to the geographical situation in the southwest, and was originally developed in the Tang and Song dynasties.
"Your Majesty Shengming, it is the horse gang, these horse gangs often haunt the southwest mountain road, and our people also entered Dali through this method, and investigated a lot of news. Dali is still very wary of other places, but there is nothing he can do about the caravan. It will even make it easier for them. Duchenne was a little proud.
"Yes, well done." Li Jing nodded and said: "With these things, it will be much easier for our army to enter Dali in the future, by the way, does Dali have a pearl?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, there is a pearl of Erhai Lake. At the moment, he is in Beijing. Duchenne hurriedly laughed.
"So good, so good." The smile on Li Jing's face was even more.
