"Thou shalt step back first, and go to the temple to rest, and a reward will be given in a moment!"

The drastic change in her face only lasted for a moment, and Wu Meiniang regained her composure, quietly read the report of the Hezhong Metropolitan Protectorate and the prince, and also invited the officers of the Hezhong Metropolitan Protectorate to deliver the letter and the staff officer of the East Palace who came from the capital to inquire for a moment, and then said with a pleasant face.

Listening to Wu Meiniang's words, the two of them were all surprised, bowed neatly to the ground and thanked them, and then walked out of the imperial study under the guidance of the eunuch. There was still a graceful smile on her cheeks, and in front of the eunuch of the little yellow gate who had just delivered the letter, Wu Meiniang also said softly but unobtrusively.

"You go too!"

The little eunuch who was already trembling had his legs weak in an instant, and he could no longer stand up after barely kneeling and kowtowing, but the other two eunuchs dragged him out.

Unable to maintain her demeanor any longer, she picked up the two copies of the folds from the table, put them in her arms, threw down the table of state affairs, and lifted the corner of her skirt, Wu Meiniang walked out of the imperial study with a solemn face, and shouted anxiously to the imperial eunuch: "Go to the Lizheng Palace, meet the eldest grandson and queen, quickly!"

Chengfeng Hall is a small hall where officials rest on the left side of the main palace, a frightened little eunuch and two civil and military officials who are anxiously waiting for the court's reply and reward go back and forth, suddenly, from the door of the palace rushed into more than a dozen armor soldiers, blocked the mouths of three people, and couldn't help but drag them into the gloomy deep palace, and there was no trace of them.

On the other end, Lizheng Palace, the eldest grandson weaves the dormitory, a full map of the Min brought from the imperial study is unfolded on the shelf, the eldest grandson weaves a beautiful and fair cheek that is completely full of worry, and searches on the map heavily, Wu Meiniang is a little apprehensive and watching, now that something is wrong, without the support of the middle palace, she can't solve it, but she has snatched too much of the rights of the middle palace, will the eldest grandson weave support her?

It was really the Hezhong Metropolitan Protectorate that had the accident, but it was not the half of Li Rang's domination in the Arabian Peninsula, but the headquarters of the Hezhong Metropolitan Protectorate in Hengros City.

After Li Jie decided to go all out to pass through the West, his control over Central Asia declined, and Li Rang's Hezhong Army only left more than 10,000 old soldiers and weak soldiers to stay in Hengrus City to control the original Silk Road.

During this time, the pattern of the Tang Anxi Protectorate has also changed, after the defeat of Broken Leaf Town, the original Anxi Metropolitan Protector Cheng Mingzhen finally returned home, replaced by the Confucian general demeanor in the Beiya Forbidden Army, and the defense of the cavalry made Cui Zhibian.

This newly appointed little white face still has some skills, and last year's winter, from the town of Broken Leaves.

This is also within the plan of the Great Min, it is not a big deal, but after the Arabs in Mesopotamia rebelled again, the Hezhong Protectorate underwent another drastic change, this time, it was Tubo again!

In May of the second year of Kaiyuan, Tubo attacked and harassed the Cao State, the capital of the Protectorate Iron Cavalry rescued it, the city of Hengros was empty, and the lord of the Tubo country led 110,000 people to pull out the city of Hengross! Most of the territory under the jurisdiction of the Metropolitan Protectorate was lost.

This is an urgent request for help sent by the Protectorate of Hezhong, and the report of the crown prince Li Jin is much more detailed, further exposing the situation in Tibet.

In April of the second year of Kaiyuan, Zanmeng's father had no house. Gyaltsen Sangha died, at the end of April, Zanpu Mangsong Mangtsen launched a palace dispute, colluded with the remnants of the Bon religion, killed the Gar Qinling, expelled the Gar family, and his son Gar Gongren returned to Fujian, and reported to his lord for pouring the power of the country and committing my great Fujian.

Chen Jin worships for a hundred years, and I implore Your Majesty's quasi-ministers to wear strong and stubborn, enter his rear, cut off the return of this madman, and never stop this for the Great Min!

After reading the two reports, Wu Meiniang's first feeling was that Mangsong Mangzan was crazy, although the Wulu clan supported the dictatorship of Zanmeng Chimarun, it was one of the main foundations to support him, Zanpu, Mangsong Mangzan killed the Gyaltsen Sangha, and he simply broke one of his legs.

There is also the Gar family, Lu Dongzan was quite popular in the country at that time, especially after the peace with the Great Min, the Gar family also bravely shouldered the heavy burden and fought to the north, and the Gar family in the army had an indelible power.

Historically, at the time of Qinling, the Tang Dynasty was repeatedly defeated in Hexi, defeating a number of famous Tang generals such as Lou Shide and Wang Xiaojie in turn, and even defeated Xue Rengui's main force of the Tang army in the Battle of Dafeichuan, and Xue Rengui's entire army was wiped out.

However, the result of Mangsong Mangzan's madness was that he controlled the entire Tubo in a short period of time, and the second impression to Wu Meiniang was trouble!

Endless troubles!

Central Asia is not a wild land, with large arable land and a large population, which is why Damin spent so much effort to establish the defense line of the Hindu Kush Mountains, why did it send troops to Central Asia with great fanfare and establish the Hezhong Protectorate.

If the Tibetans had been entrenched there for a long time and recovered the local tribes, it would definitely be a serious threat to the Great Min.

Especially at this time, the Tubo threatened the back road of the main force of the more than 600,000 Fujian troops in West Asia, once the Tubo people broke through the defense line of the Hindu Kush Mountains, whether they occupied Khorasan or not, the shock caused to the Fujian army on the front line was absolutely huge, and it may even make the second Arab crusade that cost countless troops and mobilize the army to be in vain.

It's been a real disaster lately!

Looking at the scattered Hezhong Protectorate strongholds on the map, all of them were now plundered by a gloomy hand, not only Wu Meiniang, but even the pretty face of the eldest grandson was full of haze, and he stared at it for a few minutes before he looked at Wu Meiniang solemnly.

"Sister Wu, my sister is the queen of Fujian, but my sister knows that for the government and the country, I am not as good as you in dealing with major affairs in the world, and now the situation is urgent, Sister Wu, you can get an idea!"

These words made Wu Meiniang breathe a sigh of relief, the enemy is at present, if she can't reach a consensus with the eldest grandson, it will really be a big disaster, spit out a mouthful of turbidity, Wu Meiniang did not shirk, and directly narrated.

"First of all, we must keep it absolutely secret, and we must not let anyone know about the war in Central Asia, Your Majesty, and don't tell him first!"

"Why?"

The secret eldest grandson Zhi understood, but hiding it from Li Jie made her a little surprised, and asked rhetorically in confusion.

"Because His Majesty is an ambitious person who does great things, as his woman, we can't distract him unless it is absolutely necessary!"

Listening to Wu Meiniang's solemn but slightly irrepressible pride, vaguely, Changsun Zhi seemed to understand why Li Jie trusted Wu Meiniang so much, entrusted with big things like this, and did not hesitate, this time she simply nodded.

"The Protectorate of the River must not be lost! I suggested that the crown prince should send troops from Punjab and go north to the river, although the Tubo people were rushing forward, the foundation of the Great Min in the river was not lost, and there was no lack of strength in a battle. ”

"It's just ......"

Speaking of this, Wu Meiniang was a little hesitant.

There is a reason why Li Jin only asked to attack the hinterland of Tibet from the Himalayan passes, because the Hezhong Protectorate is not under the jurisdiction of the interior of Damin, he is more like a **administrative region, less autonomous than the princes, and the various states and counties of Damin are self-contained, and only listening to Li Rang's orders can be regarded as Li Rang's ** kingdom.

If Li Jin is allowed to lead the troops in, I'm afraid it's easy to get in, but it's hard to get out, Li Rang's territory is gone, now Changsun Zhi is the queen of the main palace, but her son is not the prince, what Changsun Zhi is counting on is also the future of this river in the future, persuade her to agree, Wu Meiniang is very worried that I am afraid it will take a lot of effort.

Who knew that there was not even a trace of hesitation, and the eldest grandson Zhi nodded naturally: "It should be so, I will write a letter to Jean'er and ask him to urge Zheng Rong, the general who stayed in the town, to fully cooperate!"

Seeing Wu Meiniang's stunned appearance, Changsun Zhi also said solemnly: "Don't forget, that man, I also love him wholeheartedly!"

Love is sometimes very selfish, and sometimes, it can tolerate everything, looking at the familiar emotional fluctuations in the pupils of the eldest grandson, Wu Meiniang nodded clearly.

"Third, we must send an envoy to negotiate with Mangsong Mangzan to find out why he must oppose my Damin!"

In all fairness, the relationship between the Great Min and the Tibetan is not bad, many Tibetan people serve as high-ranking officials in the Great Min Army, and they also enjoy the same treatment as the Tang people in the imperial court.

"I can recommend a credible mission." After being depressed for a moment, Changsun Zhi took the initiative to open his mouth again and recommended.

"My brother, the eldest grandson can go!"

This mission requires top secrets, and not to mention the hardships of the long journey, there is also a certain danger in negotiating with the unclear attitude of the Tibetan Zampu.

However, communication is always the most important, war is always a continuation of politics, if you can avoid a war for Damin in political compromise, you will definitely be outstanding in meritorious service after returning, and it is not a problem to be promoted to three levels.

Because of the reason of the eldest grandson Wuji, there are only a handful of Changsun clansmen in Damin, and the eldest grandson Chong can be regarded as the most important one, but this old boy is indeed not angry, and he is still a four-grade Shaofu Qing, in the early years, he also had a grudge with the King of Min, and the eldest grandson weave was not easy to find a chance to help him, and now this envoy is an opportunity.

The huge Hezhong Mansion was abandoned, such a request, Wu Meiniang naturally couldn't not agree, stretched out her arms, hugged the eldest grandson weaving, Wu Meiniang agreed very solemnly.

"All for Damin!"

"All for Lang Jun!"

The hand of the eldest grandson weaving was also wrapped around Wu Meiniang's back, and the two women hugged each other tightly, which seemed to mark the beginning of another close unity in the harem.

Half an hour later, the eldest grandson Chong, who was still drinking and playing with his family in the mansion, still had a burgundy red face, and was thrown into the carriage in a daze, and reluctantly poked his head out of the window, and the eldest grandson Chong shouted in a daze: "What kind of business is so urgent, I don't even have time to prepare for this master!"

Before he could finish his complaint, a slender but powerful hand grabbed him by the collar suddenly, and seeing the cold gaze of his sister as the queen of the dynasty under the cloak, the eldest grandson rushed to shiver.

"This time I went to Tibet and talked about the conditions for retreating! If you can't negotiate, my brother, you don't have to come back, Nanyang just happened to discover a new big island, and there is a lack of a three-grade governor, and my little sister has already done the activity for you! ”

Without a few servants, the carriage galloped out of the city gate quickly and low-key, sitting in the center of the car, the eldest grandson Chong's face was pale, and the wine was scared awake............
