Section 658 Glory to the Queen Mother
The general officially issued a military order, and the army acted according to the order, and it was a busy scene. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
And Princess Wei Xi Taiping and his wife, Liu Xianli, Li Zhaode, Cheng Boxi, Cui Qianxun, Zhang Renyuan, Qi Biming, Wu Zhile and many other noble chiefs of the submissive tribes hurriedly returned to God to face the saints for the New Year.
Princess Taiping rode in a carriage, she was by no means a delicate woman, and she could suffer, so she traveled very fast and returned to Shendu a year ago.
The year is approaching, the festive atmosphere of the Shendu is strong, the government is sealed, and the court does not care about political affairs, but as soon as Wei Xi and Princess Taiping's invitation to An Zhizi entered the palace, they were arranged to see the driver early the next morning, accompanied by hundreds of officials.
On the glorious Ming Hall, Wei Xi and Princess Taiping supported each other and marched forward with high spirits.
Behind them are the meritorious military generals who conquered the Western Regions, they are majestic and majestic, they are the backbone and mainstay of the Tang Dynasty!
The courtiers in the palace saw it, and all kinds of tastes were in their hearts.
Some people like: I have such a Pixiu in Datang, and the country is as stable as Mount Tai and difficult to move.
Some people are worried: What if these fierce generals turn against them?
There are also many people who are so jealous that they have pantothenic acid in their stomachs, and they can't sleep when they go back, such as Wu Sansi, Wu Chengsi and others hate itchy!
They're shells, and they specialize in eating!
They are wild dogs in the mound, and they will only fight for bones to eat!
The courtiers who didn't deal with them said this behind their backs, and the fools and cool officials of the martial arts family were really discredited.
For a lady like Princess Taiping, they have ulterior motives, and their hatred is attributed to Wei Xi, if there is no such outstanding Wei Xi, Princess Taiping would not still be their bowl of dishes!
As long as Wei Xi falls, Princess Taiping and other women can only go with the flow and let them circle and fork.
They thought of Wei Xi's exploits, and watched Wei Xi stride up to the palace, he was well maintained, his appearance was extremely handsome, he didn't see old age, and he was frozen in age!
Honesty makes them jealous even more!
……
When Wei Xi and the others arrived at the palace, Princess Taiping paused, and Wei Xi dragged her up a step to return to normal.
Princess Taiping's heart stirred up an uproar: "The one who sits on the supreme seat in the main hall is her mother!" ”
In the past, it was her imperial brother Li Dan who sat in the middle, and Wu Zetian listened to the government, and the ministers could not see his phoenix face.
Today, Wu Zetian sat on the main seat of the hall, and Li Dan sat on the side.
The emperor was here, and the Empress Dowager Wu Zetian sat upright and showed up.
Princess Taiping was still seeing it for the first time, and while she was shocked by this, she was even more impressed by her husband's composure.
The two of them knelt down first, and the group of people behind knelt down in unison.
"Chen Wei Xi (courtier Taiping) See Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother, Your Majesty the Emperor!"
"See Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother, Your Majesty the Emperor!" It's right for fellow travelers to follow along.
"The Qing family is flat!" Wu Zetian spoke, but the emperor spoke before!
"Her Royal Highness the Empress Dowager Xie!"
……
Summoned by the palace, it was Wu Zetian and Wei Xi and Princess Taiping who sang the leading role, and Emperor Li Dan didn't say a few words at all.
The princess first asked for peace, and then reported to work, Wei Xi talked about military affairs, and Princess Taiping talked about administration.
The reports of the two are ingenious, using maps for military affairs and charts for administration, so that everyone can see them at a glance!
The Tang Dynasty occupies a vast area in the Western Regions, its rule is stable, and it continues to advance westward after gaining the territory of Atami, Broken Leaves, and Balkhash Lake in the west, and has controlled the capital of Shiguo, Wei Xi changed its name to "Shijiazhuang!" out of interest. ”
The westernmost point reaches the Aral Sea, and the Aral Sea County is established, the place where medicine kills water, and it is under the actual jurisdiction of Datang!
Wei Xi's words echoed in the hall: "Medicine kills water, flows out of the Tianshan Mountains, flows into the Aral Sea, the water source is abundant, it can be irrigated, wheat can be planted, and livestock can be raised.
In Xianhai County, there are 1,700 households! (Actually, most of them are naturalized Hu people)"
Wu Zetian, Li Dan and the ministers looked at the map, even those who opposed Wei Xi had to be amazed: "This horse is really amazing!" ”
Looking at the map, their hearts fluctuated: "This is history!" ”
In the past, the Tang Dynasty claimed to rule to the Aral Sea, but there was no real management, Wei Xi was the first one, and the county was set up in the Aral Sea!
When Wei Xi was talking about his martial arts, Princess Taiping's eyes looked at Li Dan, but he couldn't see any frustration on his face, this brother should have figured it out, and his nerves were big enough!
"Great, great!" Wu Zetian personally clapped his hands and was full of praise.
It was the turn of Princess Taiping to make an administrative report, mainly to list charts.
Listing the current population, livestock, taxes, road construction, etc. in the Western Regions, there are 85,000 immigrants from the Tang Dynasty, 700,000 naturalized Tuqi Shi people, and more than 200,000 original Western Regions people.
"The courtiers are the queen mother and the emperor, and now I rule from the west of Yangguan and the east of Yaozhishui, all of them have entered the Tang Dynasty, and they are all governed by the county of Tang Prefecture!" Princess Taiping focused on the results of her work, so that no one here dared to underestimate her!
It must be known that the Tang Dynasty hit, the Han regime has no formal jurisdiction over the Western Regions, just remote control, Princess Taiping did this, the situation in the Western Regions was turned upside down, and she was better than the emperors of all dynasties!
This couple, as the great monk criticized them when they got married, it was definitely a match made in heaven!
Without Wei Xi launching foreign wars, there would have been no territorial expansion.
Ordinary generals have no skills for him.
Without Princess Taiping escorting the great cause of the Western Expedition, there would be no smooth implementation of the Western Expedition!
Only she can gain the trust of the imperial court, otherwise the imperial court will be afraid that Wei Xi is heavily armed, and his tail will not fall, and he will be afraid that his merits will be high!
None of them are indispensable, and no one can do without them!
There are even some people who see the key point: the Turgish people!
The 300,000 Tucai Shi people control the strings to Wei Xi, such as Cao Cao got 300,000 Qingzhou soldiers, the general trend is a success!
There are 200,000 people in the original Western Regions, and they have not been really managed, Wei Xi has 300,000 people in control, suppressing the tribes, whoever dares not to obey will destroy them!
It is Princess Taiping's actual management of the Western Regions that is progressing smoothly, and the couple has achieved supreme greatness!
……
After the report of the horse and the princess, Wei Xi introduced the generals of Wenchen and talked about their achievements, Wu Zetian warmly encouraged them to make contributions to the Tang Dynasty, and they were respectful and actively confessed their loyalty and determination.
Personnel are over, gifts!
Wei Xi offered 200,000 taels of gold to the imperial court!
Destroying the country of Shi and the country of He, and getting a lot of wealth, Wei Xi pieced it together again, and gave the court all the gold he had obtained, showing the world that the court's support for the Western Expedition was definitely worth the money!
The 200,000 taels of gold arrived one after another, and the first batch was 3,000 taels.
"The Tang Dynasty army marched westward, the first credit is due to the support of the Queen Mother, without the support of the Queen Mother, how can the minister make contributions!"
"Glory to the Queen Mother, to the Tang Dynasty!" Wei Xi can be a man, Wu Zetian laughed so much that she couldn't close her mouth, she also wanted to save face, today her son-in-law gave her a big face, can she not be happy!
