Kublai Khan was in a hurry to return to Xiangshan, and was about to announce his retreat from the court, when he suddenly heard the inner servants outside shouting: "Qiyu Great Khan, Great Empress, Kudu Lujian lost princess to the court!" ”

What the? Kudu Lujian's lost princess actually came to the court?

The ministers couldn't help but be surprised, what happened when Kudu Lujian lost the princess and went to the court in person? Why can't you go and talk to the Great Khan alone? But do you need to say it in front of the Manchu Dynasty when you go to the court?

The ministers were in doubt, only to see Kudu Lujian lost and wearing court clothes, and entered with his head held high, holding a letter in his hand, obviously coming prepared!

That's amazing! What did Kudu Lujian do when the lost princess played? It can't have anything to do with the King of Goryeo, right? According to her status, except for Goryeo state affairs, she is not allowed to go to the court to senate. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Kudu Lujian was lost and came to Kublai Khan and Chabi, and bowed: "Qiqi father Khan, the courtier Kudu Lujian is lost, and there is a book." ”

Kublai Khan and Chabi were surprised, Kudu Lujian was lost, what is this going to do? Suddenly serious?

Kublai Khan didn't know why, so he smiled and said, "Kudu Lujian is lost, what do you not tell me?" Still want to play in court? ”

Kudu Lujian was confused, and said: "What the courtiers want to talk about is the major affairs of the court, and they can't report it privately, so as not to be said." ”

Kublai Khan was stunned for a moment, suddenly remembered something, and suddenly said: "Oh, do you want to ask for credit for the king of Goryeo?" I asked you before, and you said that you hadn't thought about it yet, so I had to wait. How? Now figured it out? ”

Kudu Lujian raised his head in disbelief and said, "Yes, the courtiers have already made up their minds, and they are here to play." ”

Kublai Khan laughed and said, "Speak." ”

Kudu Lujian was lost and said loudly: "Wang Yu, the king of Goryeo, collected grain and built roads for the Eastern Expedition, built ships and sent troops, and successively mobilized more than 100,000 officers and soldiers, 30,000 craftsmen, countless people, 350,000 quintals of grain and grass, and other expenses are also very huge, and the credit can be described as great, and the court should reward him to show his merits, show his name, and show the kindness of the court." ”

Kublai Khan nodded again and again when he heard this, and said: "That's true, if you don't reward the king of Goryeo, the people's hearts will be unconvinced." ”

Kudu Lujian was lost and said: "What Father Khan said is that although the merits of the King of Goryeo are not comparable to those of the King of Zhennam, they have also made great efforts, and the courtiers, as the queen of Goryeo, should ask for credit for Goryeo." ”

Kublai Khan smiled and said, "Then what reward do you think should be given?" Although. ”

Kudu Lujian was lost and said, "The king of Goryeo has two things to ask his father Khan. First, in the territory of Goryeo, there are still 82 Daru Huachi, and there have been many illegal acts over the years, and the people are full of complaints. When the king of Zhennan went on an expedition to the east, he also punished them severely, but he could not cure the root cause after all. Therefore, the king of Goryeo requested the removal of 82 Daru Hwachi, and in the future, all Goryeo state affairs were ordered by Kaegyeong. ”

Kublai Khan thought for a moment and said, "There is some truth in that, but what about the second thing?" ”

Kudu Lujian paused for a moment, and said loudly: "Although the rebellion of the kings of the host country is peaceful, there are still remnants haunted outside the pass, so Goryeo is forced to garrison troops in the north to defend, but there is no danger to defend in the north of Goryeo, so that it is necessary to garrison heavy troops all year round, and countless money and food are consumed, and the people are overwhelmed. Outside of the north of Goryeo, there was a rich land in Dongning that could be cultivated, but the garrison of Goryeo had to collect grain from the south and let the land of Dongning be barren, which was extremely absurd. Therefore, the king of Goryeo asked the Great Khan to hand over the land of Dongnyeong to Goryeo for reclamation, so as to get the best of both worlds. ”

Kublai Khan nodded again and again and said yes, what Kudu Lujian said was lost, in fact, he also knew, but he didn't take it to heart. In this crusade, Wang Tan made a lot of contributions, and the court did not have much money and food to reward him, and it was not a big deal to promise him these two things, which did sound like a good way.

Chabi suddenly asked, "These two things sound like they are of great benefit to the country and the people, didn't the king of Goryeo tell him when the king of Zhennam was in Goryeo?" ”

Kudu Lujian snorted in dismay, "My brother-in-law...... The king of Zhennan did not agree, saying that these two things were related to the imperial court, and they had to be decreed by his father Khan, and he could not make the decision. ”

Kublai Khan was stunned, when did this guy become so modest? Is there a doorway in it? Generally speaking, Cheng Yue is not right, these two things should indeed be ordered by Kublai Khan, but Cheng Yue is known for not following the rules. He held the power of arbitrariness in his hands, except for the king of Goryeo and Kutu Lujian, who were lost, he could cut off first, and according to his temper, it was reasonable to say that he would agree immediately, and Kublai Khan heard afterwards that even if he was not reluctant, he could only let him. But Cheng Yue unexpectedly pushed back, why is this?

Not only Kublai Khan, but Chabi felt even more surprised, and said with a smile: "Can the king of Zhennan say such a general thing?" It's really rare. ”

Kublai Khan thought for a while and said with a smile: "The king of Zhennan is probably worried that he will be said to be in power, and throughout the orders he gave on the eastern expedition, there is no place to cross, and the king of Goryeo mentioned to him the great plan of the territory and the governance of the imperial court, and the king of Zhennan has concerns, which is a serious move." ”

In fact, these are not Kublai Khan's sincere words. After the generals of the Eastern Expedition returned, Kublai Khan heard from them that when Cheng Yue first arrived in Goryeo, he had a face-to-face conflict with Wang Tan and Kudu Lujian, and later there was an open dispute in the palace, and they got along very unpleasantly. Therefore, how could Cheng Yue think about Wang Yu? Not to mention asking for credit for him, this kind of retributive temperament is also a common problem among young people.

The ministers of the court also had similar thoughts in their hearts as Kublai Khan. It's not a secret that Cheng Yue doesn't like Wang Yu, they have already heard of it. As a result, Kudu Lujian was forced to lose his hands and go to the court to ask for credit for Wang Yu, and he had to take advantage of Cheng Yue and the two princesses to marry and take vacation, which was a big loss for Wang Tan, and he lost face very much.

Kublai Khan muttered: "Cheng Yue didn't say anything else except to wait for my order? ”

Kudu Lujian shook his head in confusion and said: "No, King Zhennan didn't say that the King of Goryeo was wrong, but he refused to give an order on behalf of his father Khan." ”

Kublai Khan was still a little uneasy, but he was afraid that Cheng Yue had other intentions, and said: "Didn't say anything against it?" ”

Kudu Lujian was lost and saw that Kublai Khan was afraid of annoying Cheng Yue to such a point, and he couldn't help but feel angry in his heart, and said loudly: "The courtiers remember it clearly, and they really didn't say it. ”

Kublai Khan nodded.

Seeing that Kublai Khan had agreed to Kudulujian's request to be lost, and that he had said earlier that he would reward the king of Goryeo, a minister immediately came out to agree.

Shangshu Zuo Prime Minister Kudu Cha'er walked out and saluted: "Great Khan, the minister thinks that in this Eastern Expedition, the King of Goryeo has made a great contribution and is extremely loyal to the Great Khan, and he cannot show the grace of the Great Khan unless he is rewarded, otherwise, who will stand up for the next expedition in the imperial court?" ”
