In the Taiji Palace of Chang'an City, the recital of Li Ji and Xie Yingdeng was sent to Li Jiancheng's dragon case. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info Li Jiancheng looked at this letter, and a smile appeared on his lips:

"Hmmm! The Tianci copper mine is a salted fish. And those steppe tribes are just gluttonous cats, and they all rush over when they smell the fragrance of this salted fish. Originally, after the discovery of this copper mine, Li Jiancheng decided to hide the secret of the copper mine, but then he had a thought - no! On the one hand, although the land of the Turkic ancestral tombs in Mobei is desolate, it is also a piece of land, for the land, whether it is fertile or barren, it is a very valuable wealth, the land is more eager for those steppe barbarians than the current Central Plains people, and the Central Plains farming peoples, more like is partial peace, as long as they can live a comfortable life, the matter of land compensation is never lacking. On the other hand, Li Jiancheng would rather make them feel that this copper mine is Li Tang's arsenal, rather than let these grassland aliens feel that this copper mine is Li Tang's money bag and 'blood transfusion'. As for how this copper mine became a copper iron mine, this is Li Jiancheng's own credit. Li Jiancheng picked up the pen and issued an order to Li Jing in Monan and Li Ji in Mobei, asking them to strengthen the defense of Mobei. It was not only Xue Yantuo who was attracted by the Tianci Copper Mine, but also other places that were moved by the news of the Tianci Copper Mine. The land of Tuguhun in the northwest. King Fu Yun of Tuyuhun faced the spiritual seat of his ancestors alone. Recalling the entrepreneurial process of the ancestors - Tuyuhun, originally a human name, is the eldest son of the Xianbei Murong clan in Liaodong Shan Yu Murong Shegui, and Murong Shegui divided the household into 700 to make other departments to herd. Murong She's death, his sister-in-law Murong Diao succeeded to Shan Yu, and Murong Tugu Hun was at odds with him, Tugu Hun then led the department to move west to Shanglong, and stopped at Caohan, taking this as a stronghold, and the descendants inherited each other, invaded and forced Diqiang, and became a strong department. Tuyuhun died, and his eldest son, Tuyan, succeeded him. Jiang Cong, the chief of Angcheng Qiang, stabbed Tuyan and was mortally wounded, and when he died, he instructed his son Ye Yan to quickly defend Bailan in order to consolidate his rule. Ye Yan established the Mukechuan headquarters in Shazhou, and set up Sima, Changshi and other officials. With his grandfather Tuyuhun as his family name, Tuyuhun has changed from a personal name to a surname and family name. Ye Yan's son is ridiculed. Bi Xi passed on the son of Shilian, hired in Western Qin, and was named the king of Bailan. Seeing that Lian passed on his younger brother, Western Qin named him Shazhou Mu and Bailan King. Seeing that his younger brother Wu Suti was defeated by Western Qin, he begged to remain in Nanliang. Wufuti is located in Shuluogan, the son of Shizhen, and his power is restored, leading thousands of tribes to Muhechuan, claiming to be the king of Dadanyu and Tuyuhun. He was defeated by Western Qin, and was named General Pingdi and Chishui Protector by Western Qin. From Tuyuhun to Shuluogan, through the 6th generation and 8 transmissions, many of them have talents, and pay attention to absorbing scholars, Sima, doctors and other officials, all use Confucianism. At that time, when the 16 countries were divided and chaotic, the Tuyuhun was based on Gan and Qingjian, and actually controlled the Taohe River and Longgu in the east, Chishui and Bailan in the west, the Yellow River in the north, and the Dajishi Mountain in the south. It is adjacent to Nanliang in the north and West Qin in the east. Shuluogan passed on his younger brother Acai, annexed thousands of miles of Qiang, lived in the watering river, and was in the middle of the Qiang, known as the strong department. He once climbed the west leaning mountain, looked for the source of the river, in order to find the passage to the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, sent an envoy to Jiankang, paid tribute to Liu Song, and was named the history of Shazhou Thorn and the Duke of the River by Liu Song. A Cai passed on his younger brother Mu Ying, and Song was named the Duke of Longxi and the King of Longxi. Mu Ying once captured Helianding, who was an enemy of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and sent it to the Northern Wei Dynasty, where Wei named Mu Ying as the king of Western Qin, occupying Jincheng, Longxi and other counties. Mu Yu passed on his younger brother Mu Liyan. At this time, Tuyuhun has a vast land, in addition to the headquarters in Shazhou, there are 4 big cities, respectively in Qingshuichuan, Chishui, Douhe, Tuquzhenchuan and other places. Muliyanchuan is located in Shuluo Ganzi Shiyin, the beginning of the town is in Fuluochuan, and the headquarters is moved west. Shi Yin was named the king of Henan by the Song Dynasty, and was named the king of Xiping by Wei. Shi Yin passed on the son of Yi Hou. Du Yi Hou passed on the son of Fu Lian. At that time, it was the period of Emperor Wen of Sui, Emperor Wen of Sui sent Princess Guanghua of Sui Dynasty to marry Khan Qualu as his wife. But soon, when Yang Guang ascended the throne, he sent troops to attack Tuyuhun, captured a large amount of Tuyuhun land, and set up Xihai, Heyuan and other counties in these areas. Kwaru took Fu Yun's hand and said:

"Brother! It was not easy for the ancestor Murong Tuguhun to start a business, and Yang Guang was treacherous and took away the land that our ancestors took back by blood. Brother, promise me that you will take back the land that our ancestors bought with blood! ”

"Yes! Don't worry, little brother, I will definitely take back my homeland. In order to confuse Yang Guang, Fu Yun made Princess Guanghua of the Sui Dynasty, who was married by the Sui Dynasty, the queen of the Sui Dynasty after the death of Kwa Lu. However, in order to find help, Fu Yun submitted and pledged allegiance to the Eastern Turks, and, with the help of the strength of the Eastern Turks, slowly regained the lost territory. However, because of the use of troops for the Sui Dynasty, Tuyuhun's national strength declined, and the eastern Turks were also full of internal contradictions, and Tubo in the southwest of Tuyuhun began to rise, constantly clashing with Tuyuhun, in order to survive, Fu Yun had to find a new master, and had no choice but to send people to the western Turks for help. At the beginning, the Western Turks only symbolically held a few hundred cattle and thousands of sheep as tribute, but with the establishment of the Western Turks and the Khan, Tuyuhun's life began to be sad again. After controlling the countries of the Western Regions, he began to stretch out his hand to Tuyuhun again. And Tuyuhun was not willing to be blackmailed by the Western Turks. Slowly, the relationship between Tuyuhun and the Western Turks began to deteriorate, and then, the Khan died of illness, and the Khan of Tongye Hu ascended the throne, and the Khan of Tongye Hu was more terrible than the Khan of Sheku, so it became the biggest problem of Tuyuhun now to start looking for a new backer. To whom did Tuyuhun surrender his sincerity? Murong Fuyun had been thinking about it, and before that, there was news that the Eastern Turks had perished, and that both the Eastern Turkic Khan Ashina Duppi and Ashina Buyers had been escorted to Chang'an, and that Li Tang had discovered a large amount of copper and iron ore in the hometown of the Eastern Turks. When it reached Murong Fuyun's ears, Murong Fuyun's eyes began to look towards this huge empire that inherited the former Sui.

"Someone, His Royal Highness the Prince of Ma Chuan came to me!"

"Father Khan! What's the matter with your child? Murong Fuyun looked at his son.

"Fu Shun, come here, kneel down for me in front of the ancestral spirit. Recite to me the spiritual positions of these ancestors. ”

"Yes! The child obeyed. Murong Fushun read aloud:

"The first generation ancestor Murong Shegui, the second generation ancestor Murong Tuguhun, the third generation ancestor Murong Tuyan, the fourth generation ancestor Murong Yeyan, the fifth generation ancestor Murong Bixi, the sixth generation ancestor Murong Shilian, the seventh generation ancestor Murong Wusuti, the eighth generation ancestor Murong Shuluogan, Murong Acai, Murong Murong, Murong Muliyan, the ninth generation ancestor Murong Shiyin, the tenth generation ancestor Murong Du Yihou, the eleventh generation ancestor Murong Fu Lianchou, the twelfth generation ancestor Murong Quarlu, and the thirteenth generation ancestor uncle Murong Shifu. By my father's generation, there were seventeen khans in total! Murong Fuyun nodded.

"Hmmm! Fu Shun, what you said is not wrong, from our first generation of Tuyuhun ancestor Murong Shegui, the first generation, the founding king Murong Tuyuhun to his father's generation, he is already seventeen Khan. Now, whether this Khan's position can continue to be passed on depends on you. ”

"Father! You ......" Murong Fushun remembered, and Murong Fuyun pressed Murong Fushun down.

"Murong Fushun, now, my father has given you a special task, you quickly disguise yourself, go to Chang'an, and go to see Li Jiancheng."

"What, Father Khan, you let the child go to see Li Jiancheng......" For Li Jiancheng, Murong Fushun is 10,000 worships, here, Murong Fushun has been hearing the legend of Li Jiancheng, what turns green salt into snow salt, and borrows snow salt into sweet snow sugar, in Murong Fushun's heart, Li Jiancheng is an omnipotent god. Murong Fushun has always wanted to go to Chang'an to see his idol. Now as soon as I heard that my father Khan was going to Chang'an by himself, I immediately wanted to give birth to two wings under my armpits and fly to Chang'an.

"Remember, you have to observe carefully, and you must see if Li Tang is worthy of our Tuyuhun defection."

In the Gaochang Kingdom of the Western Regions, Ju Wentai, the lord of the Gaochang Kingdom, also thought because Li Tang discovered a large number of copper and iron mines in the hometown of the Khan Court of the Eastern Turks and deployed heavy troops there: "What does Li Jiancheng want to do?" Could it be that he also wants to restore the hegemony of the Central Plains over the grassland, just like the former Sui. Ju Wentai's thoughts returned to the scene when he was in the former Sui Dynasty, and he followed Pei Ju to Luoyang to meet him. At the beginning, in order to welcome them, foreign guests from the Western Regions, Yang Guang wrapped the trunks of Luoyang with brocade and silk, so that the merchants of Luoyang and Chang'an wore gorgeous and luxurious, and they were high-headed carriages in and out. Ju Wentai felt a little funny when he thought about the scene of eating and drinking tea in the tavern teahouse in Luoyang, and even giving money. It was these flashy things, Ju Wentai felt, that led to the demise of the Sui Dynasty. However, now, the situation of Gaochangguo is also not good, the western Turks due to the death of the Khan of the shooting, the accession of the Yehu Khan, the extortion of the Gaochang State is better day by day, and in the long run, the foundation of the Gaochang Kingdom will be destroyed in their own hands. For the sake of the inheritance left by his ancestors, Ju Wentai called his prince Ju Zhisheng.

"Zhisheng!"

"Father!"

"Hurry up and prepare, disguise yourself, and go to Chang'an, Central Plains!"

"Go to Chang'an, father, what are you doing in Chang'an? The child is not going! ”

"You ......" Ju Wentai really wanted to slap his son. This son of his own, who has been pampered since he was a child, can't stand it, Ju Wentai has been abolished Ju Zhisheng many times, but Ju Wentai only has such a son, if Ju Zhisheng is abolished, and he has no other sons, who will inherit this Gaochang Kingdom at that time? Ju Wentai didn't dare to think about it.

"Zhisheng! There are many, many beautiful women in Chang'an that you haven't seen, and there are many, many delicacies that you haven't eaten, go for it! Check it out. ”

"Really? Father, is this true? ”

"It's true, my father won't lie to you!"

"Good! Boy, I'll go! Seeing Ju Zhisheng's back, Ju Wentai had a feeling that he was about to die!
