Chapter 590: The Class Master Returns to the Dynasty (2)
"Your Majesty! Concubine Ashina Yunge begged to see His Majesty, please give your Majesty a concubine! After hearing Ashina Yunge's voice, Li Jiancheng's brows furrowed. The look on www.biquge.info face immediately became gloomy - Li Jiancheng's ambition had not yet been filled, and there were still many places in the world to be conquered by himself. Even if they don't conquer themselves, those aliens will take their swords and guns and ride 'beasts' that they have never seen before to challenge their authority. Taking Li Tang's current situation as an example, the defeat of the Eastern Turks is not a victory to boast of. The Eastern Turks have already received successive blows, like an old man who is already dying. It is really not an honorable thing to eliminate a dying old man. Moreover, there are still Western Turks, Tuyuhun and Tubo on the land that have not risen immediately. These alien races, as well as the Persian and Arab empires that had been vying with Li Tang for control of Central Asia, had been competing with Li Tang for control of Central Asia. There are also Khitan, Jurchen and other departments that fought in the two Song Dynasty in later generations. Therefore, as long as Li Jiancheng is in this position, the killing of alien races will not stop, and in Li Jiancheng's expansion plan, Ashina can be used as a banner, and in the end, Ashina Pyri is a person who once served as a khan. Leave Ashina Dupi behind, and when you conquer those foreign races, you can learn from the methods of the later Manchu Qing Dynasty to encircle the upper echelons of the foreign race, but you can't completely learn the Manchu Qing. Li Jiancheng's real intention is to first set a benchmark for the upper-class people of different races, and the blood and life of Tang Jian'er are also very precious. However, Ashina Yunge's move will make all Li Jiancheng's plans go down the drain. Once Li Jiancheng pardons Ashina and gives him a high position, then when it reaches the ears of the people, it will be rumored that Li Jiancheng is greedy for women, and the emotions of the people in Guanzhong will definitely fluctuate. It will even affect the morale of the army, you must know that most of the main forces of the defenders in Guanzhong are Guanzhong people. Mutiny is no fun. Li Jiancheng forced himself to calm down. Suddenly, Li Jiancheng looked at Ashina playfully.
"Ashina, it's your own sister who is standing in front of you now! Why, are you still reluctant to say a word? There seemed to be a glimmer of light in Ashina's eyes. But it was extinguished immediately.
"Ashina, if you are willing to kneel down to me now, I will forgive your sins immediately, how about it!?" Li Jiancheng looked at Ashina with hope. Ashina suddenly laughed:
"Hahaha!" Subsequently, Ashina spat blood and fell in front of the Xuanzheng Palace.
"Brother! Elder brother! Elder brother! Mingyu's father-in-law took the imperial doctor to break Ashina's mouth open.
"Your Majesty, Ashina bit off his tongue."
"Ahh Brother! Brother, wake up! Brother! Ashina Yunge shook Ashina desperately. Shouting, suddenly, Ashina Yunge fainted.
"Come on, get Ashina down and bury it! In addition, help Ashina Yunge Zhaorong down and let the imperial doctor take a look. "Father-in-law Mingyu asked the palace maid to help Ashina Yunge down. Li Jiancheng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart - it's good! This Ashina is a good sweat! But it's better to be dead! This also makes there less right and wrong. Li Jiancheng smiled.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is over, let's get going! General Li Jing! I seem to have heard that you have welcomed back Yang Zhengdao, the grandson of the former Sui Emperor, the former Sui Empress, the Empress Dowager Xiao, and the father-in-law of Mingyu, and invite them in immediately, so that I can meet my mother-in-law and that little nephew! Mingyu's father-in-law agreed, and shouted loudly:
"It is rumored that the former Sui Empress Dowager Xiao and the former Sui King Yang Zhengdao will meet you!" The guards in front of the hall passed it down one by one. When Empress Dowager Xiao and Yang Zhengdao heard the summons of the guards and were about to enter the Xuanzheng Palace, Kang Sumi whispered to Empress Dowager Xiao:
"! When the minions escorted you back to the Central Plains, they did their best! I beg Niangniang to say a few more good words in front of Your Majesty. Empress Dowager Xiao nodded. Empress Dowager Xiao and Yang Zhengdao walked into the Xuanzheng Palace. Compared with Yang Zhengdao's trembling, Empress Dowager Xiao was solemn and calm.
"The people's woman Xiao and her grandson Yang Zhengdao see His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!" Empress Dowager Xiao's voice was like a yellow bird. Li Jiancheng opened the crown bead in front of the crown. I saw that Empress Dowager Xiao's appearance has not changed because of the passage of time, and she is still like a double ten girl. Moreover, Empress Dowager Xiao is also wearing a white plain dress, which makes people feel extremely fresh. seems to respond to that sentence, women should be pretty and filial piety.
"It is worthy of being a legendary woman who has bewitched nearly six emperors, what a stunner in the world!. With this voice, this figure, it is not an exaggeration to say that Empress Dowager Xiao is a goblin! Li Jiancheng's abdomen felt a burst of heat, as if a fire was burning. Just when Li Jiancheng was fascinated, someone coughed.
"Gnaw! Nibble! Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Congratulations to Your Majesty on your second day today! ”
"Ahh It's Xuancheng! I don't know what Wei Aiqing said about the second happiness, where does the joy come from! Wei Zheng left the class and said:
"Your Majesty! Congratulations to Your Majesty! His Majesty broke the Turks and welcomed back his mother-in-law, so that His Majesty's concubine and his biological mother were reunited, and secondly, it also made Xiao Xiangguo and his sister reunited, Your Majesty! Isn't this a second joy? ”
"Ahh Oh, yes! Wei Aiqing is right! Two happy events indeed! From Wei Zheng's words, Li Jiancheng read that Wei Zheng was reminding himself that Xiao was his mother-in-law, and he was still Xiao Yu's sister, so he should pay attention to the influence. Li Jiancheng thought about it.
"I canonized Xiao as Mrs. Yingguo, and Yang Zhengdao as a waiter for the outside of the staff." Yang Zhengdao immediately knelt down and kowtowed.
"Thank you, Emperor Longen!"
"Courtier, thank you, Lord Longen!" Compared with Yang Zhengdao, Empress Dowager Xiao's performance is even more humble and arrogant. Li Jiancheng's heart was even more itchy when he saw it - no wonder Li Shimin later shared a bed with this woman for several years, such a superb person in the world. As long as it is a high-powered man, he will definitely be tempted. (According to the records of the wild history, in the fourth year of Zhenguan of the Tang Dynasty, after Li Jing and Li Ji pacified the Turks, the Empress Dowager Xiao returned to the Central Plains from the Turks, when the Empress Dowager Xiao was forty-eight years old and Li Shimin was thirty-three years old.) It is said that Li Shimin had a crush on the Empress Dowager Xiao when he was young, and at this time, after meeting the Empress Dowager Xiao again, he was attracted by the ageless appearance of the Empress Dowager Xiao, and despite the opposition of the ministers, he canonized the Empress Dowager Xiao as his concubine! A grand canonization ceremony was also held. At the canonization ceremony, Li Shimin used the night pearl as a lantern to illuminate, deliberately showing off to the Empress Dowager Xiao. Ask Empress Dowager Xiao, this pomp is good! During the Sui Dynasty, Yang Guang held a banquet lit by whale oil lamps. Empress Dowager Xiao said to Li Shimin. Does Your Majesty want to compete with the King of the Fallen Country? Because of this, Empress Dowager Xiao became Li Shimin's favorite concubine at that time! Subsequently, Li Shimin made great contributions to Ashinasmo, Ashina Maidu, Zhisi Yunli, Kang Sumi and others, and rewarded Ashinasmo, Ashina Maidu, Zhisi Yunli, Kang Sumi and other four people, and ordered Pei Lin to repay the victory. went to Renshou Palace and reported to Li Yuan, Li Jing and others won a great victory. After retiring from the court, Li Jing asked to meet Li Jiancheng alone.
"Hmmm! O pharmacist! Is there anything important? I want to see me alone! ”
"Your Majesty! The minister asked to meet His Majesty alone because he had an important matter to enlighten His Majesty. Looking at Li Jing's anxious look, Li Jiancheng felt that something big must have happened.
"Oh! Pharmacist, please! ”
"Your Majesty, when Your Majesty issued an order, ordered the ministers and others to lead troops to accept Monan, fortunately, Your Majesty's heavenly grace, coupled with the surrender of Yuan Junzhang and others, enabled our army to immediately break through the Heng'an Mayi defense line, but in order to raise military expenses, Your Majesty once negotiated with some merchants and issued something called national bonds, right?" Li Jiancheng nodded. However, Li Jiancheng is a little strange, okay, why did Li Jing tell him this.
"Pharmacist! Didn't you say that more than a million people and animals were captured? How? These things are not enough! ”
"Your Majesty! At that time, His Majesty had promised to compensate for the captured cattle, sheep and slaves, but this time, when our army entered the land of Monan, except for Heng'an, which was still prosperous, all other places were empty cities. Moreover, because the Khitan alliance tribes attacked Dingxiang, Mayi and Heng'an in order to regain the land of Monan, although they were defeated, most of the captured were strong men. The slave traders were fond of buying virgins and boys, and were very resistant to those who used to kill and set fire with knives and guns in their hands. In order to get their principal back immediately, those traders searched everywhere, even not sparing a broken sheepskin. As for livestock, because of the lack of ploughing cattle in the Central Plains, cattle are expensive and sheep are cheap. The vendors deliberately lowered the price of the sheep. Collect more sheep under the pretext of this. The last general is helpless. Also, because of the military disaster and the exploitation of Han traders, some stragglers formed horse thieves from scratch and often robbed everywhere. Although the minister sent troops everywhere to suppress it, he did not cure the symptoms! Li Jiancheng finally understood. Originally, I thought that I had temporarily overcome the difficulties, but who knew that this hurdle had not been passed. You must know that businessmen are the most realistic people in the world, and if you borrow money from businessmen and do not pay it back, then the government's credit will immediately fall to the ground. When the time comes, if any alien rebels again, where will they go to raise military funds? In addition, the land of Mo Nan is the barrier of Youyun, Hedong, and other places. If there is chaos now, then the civil officials of the imperial court will inevitably force Li Jiancheng to give up Mo Nan in the name of reckless military force. On the one hand, Li Jiancheng was reluctant to spit out what he had eaten, and on the other hand, giving up the land of Monan was tantamount to exposing Youyun, Hedong and other places to the iron hooves of foreign races. Li Jiancheng is not so stupid. 'What to do?' What to do? Just when Li Jiancheng was thinking about it, Li Jiancheng saw Mingyu's father-in-law sneaky.
"What's the matter?"
"Your Majesty! Doctor Report! Ashina Zhaorong Niangniang is pregnant. ”
"Got it! Get out of here! Let me be quiet! ”
