The liveliness of Chang'an City, in the last month of Tianbao's eleventh year, reached its peak, and the people had not yet seen some way out of the murder case in Xuanyangfang, and in a blink of an eye, it ushered in greater shocking news.

The Tang Dynasty wants to set up a new capital protectorate in the hometown of Tubo, the hometown of the great enemy, and the government is located in the capital of the Tubo people, and the name is also very domineering.

Zhenfan is the capital of the Protectorate.

At the same time, it was announced that it was a reward for the meritorious heroes in the war, and after waiting for more than a month, there was finally a result.

As expected, Ge Shuhan was promoted from the Duke of the Kingdom to the King of the County, and he is still the title in history, the King of Xiping County, and a certain fat man just made up a pair.

The biggest beneficiary of the war is that before the war, it was just a festival to stay after Feng Changqing, one step to the heavens and Jin to seal the Duke of Yuguo, 1,200 households in the food town, 400 households in the actual seal, the regent Shi Dafu, the opening of the palace with the three divisions, and the capital of the palace, these are all due meanings, and the most surprising thing is the change in the mission.

He turned out to be the deputy capital protector of Anxi and the envoy of the four towns to the chief protector of the North Court, the envoy of the northwest court of Yixi, and the deputy capital protector of Anxi and the envoy of the four towns, that is, the position that Wang Zhengjian held before his death.

Two towns at the same time, a full year ahead of history!

And the original Beiting capital guarded Cheng Qianli, Jin Feng Qingyuan County Marquis, transferred to the capital as the right Jin Wuwei general, also a year ahead of schedule, of course, this is not a false title, roughly equivalent to the later director of the Imperial Capital Town Comprehensive Management Office.

That's right, what Jin Wuwei did was basically the work of the city management.

Regarding this change, in the words of Mr. Yan Zhuangyan, it is the Son of Heaven who is expressing his dissatisfaction with the mutual confrontation between the two towns in Anxi and Xiting in the war, and Liu Ji also deeply agrees with this.

Maybe there is some kind of compensation in it, after all, everyone knows that the biggest hero is Anxi Town, which is Feng Changqing, but the throne fell to Ge Shuhan, who did not fight.

Immediately afterward, just when everyone thought that Ge Shuhan would become the first protector of Zhenfan, the news from the city once again broke through everyone's eyes.

The eighteenth son of the forgotten Son of Heaven, Shouwang Li Mao, became this unexpected candidate, and suddenly appeared in people's field of vision in a sudden way.

Many people only remembered at this time the bloodline left by the once favorite concubine of the Son of Heaven, the most powerful candidate for the crown prince, and the indescribable male protagonist of the palace secrets.

This is because the news is not big enough, the people of Chang'an are boiling, all kinds of gossip information are flying all over the sky, people are talking about it after tea and dinner, exchanging words and phrases that I don't know where to hear, complementing each other into a complete and convincing story, and then spreading to every corner of the city through countless gossip mouths.

Of course, this is just a remote leader, Li Mao also had the title of Yizhou Metropolitan Governor and Jiannan Jiedu Envoy in the years when he was a pet, which is the one Yang Guozhong currently holds.

As for the actual chief officer, the deputy capital protector of Zhenfan and the envoy of Qingtang Jiedu, it fell to the head of Li Guangbi, the former deputy envoy of Hexi Jiedu, and in the merit book of the generals of Helong, he was second only to Li Sheng, the envoy of the Shence army, who was too junior and did not have the qualifications to be promoted.

Compared with such sensational news, the subtle changes in the two countries basically did not stir up any waves.

After a few months, seeing Mariqi again, Liu Ji really had a feeling of impressing, and the impression was that the mountain hunter who was wearing a ragged coat and had messy hair had now become an envoy from afar, wearing a traditional Nepalese brocade robe, with that kind of Indian wrap on his head, and his face was cleaned up, if it wasn't for the other party to speak first, he wouldn't dare to recognize it on the street.

"Honored guest, Mariqi brings greetings from afar."

"Here, you're the guest, Marybeg."

Liu Ji made a joke with him, the place they chose was a wine shop in the West Market, it was not easy for Mari to find him, but it was very convenient for him to find the other party, because all the envoys lived in the Ouchi, that is, at the bottom of the Taiji Palace, near the Honglu Guest House near the Suzaku Gate.

And the Suzaku Gate and even the entire Ouchi are guarded and guarded by the Right Hayashi.

In addition to them, there is also a special guest in the wine shop, Xiao Wu, the guard next to Jiu Niang, who came to Chang'an City as the head of the guard of the Zhangxiong Mission, but his actual identity is the decision-maker of the Zhangxiong Envoy.

For so long, Liu Ji has long been accustomed to the Han-style kneeling sitting, and occasionally changed to the cross-legged style of the Fan people, which is a little fresh.

Xiao Wu handed her a letter, which was a thick one, and at a glance, she knew that most of it was written by two women together, how long did Elsilea learn Chinese, how could she write a good handwriting like Li Longji said, most of it was ghostwritten by Jiu Niang.

"How is your lady?"

"They are all very good, please rest assured, lady, she will definitely take good care of the noble girl." Xiao Wu, who was dressed as an elephant male, smiled a little shyly.

"Chang'an is really big."

Liu Ji understands his feelings, a Han slave who has been plundered to Tubo since he was a child, never understands what it means here, and in Jiu Niang's heart, it is a home that she can hope for but cannot reach, and may not have a chance to take a look in this life, even if he can come back one day, his identity has changed, and his mood has changed.

Liu Ji found them, of course, it will not be accompanied by emotion, the status of the two countries has been decided, and he needs to implement his ideas through these actual people in power, of course, it is also to observe how much influence he still has.

"Whether she wants to or not, the imperial court has issued an edict, she will take over as Queen Zhangxiong, you have to tell her, Zhangxiong is the most important barrier to curb the ambitions of the Tubo people, if you don't want to see them resurge, don't shirk, after the Tubo hometown set up the capital protectorate, you will get direct support, don't worry anymore, Tubo wants to move you, want to resist the rule of the Tang Dynasty, will face threats from several directions, the most likely measure they take is to woo, not to invade, what I am most worried about is actually to assassinate, You must be extremely careful, not to let them contact strangers, and at the same time beware of the abnormality of the people around you, Jiu Niang's guards, preferably the kind of fanatical believers, not easy to be tempted by money, and not easy to be threatened. ”

Xiao Wu carefully wrote down his words, Liu Ji's worries were justified, as the spiritual leader of the Xiangxiong people, Jiu Niang had an irreplaceable position, once she had a mistake, no one would be able to clean up the situation, and worse, she had no heir.

When Xiao Wu asked this question in a hesitant tone, Liu Ji didn't have a good way for a while, he was not a woman, and he couldn't give birth to a baby.

As a result, Mariqi said something that made him extremely embarrassed.

"The noble daughter of Elcirea has told me that she can have another child for you and inherit the kingdom of Zhangzhung."

What is this operation?
