Chapter 360: Calm
In a blink of an eye, half a month has passed.
What Li Hong didn't expect was that the wind and waves had passed in the past half a month, nothing happened, and it was spent so plainly, and since the emperor's royal drive left Chang'an City, Li Zhi really never dealt with military affairs.
It seems that Li Zhi is really relieved to leave everything to Li Hong alone, and in desperation, Li Hong no longer cares so much, and directly decides when it comes to military affairs, but the twists and turns sent to Jiucheng Palace afterwards are not spared.
The only thing worth mentioning is the peace talks with the Turks, when the case of Dali Temple was found to be related to King Yong, it was stopped, and finally a person with strong martial arts was arrested from the Turkic caravan and judged.
But in this way, Ashina Fu Nian just took the lead, accusing Datang of sloppily closing the case, ignoring neighbors, and strongly demanding a retrial, but because there are too many things happening these days, Li Hong didn't take the protests of the Turkic gang to heart at all.
However, although Li Hong is busy every day now, he has no time to deal with them, but he suffers Yan Shansi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and those people can't break into the East Palace to bother Li Hong, but they are pestering Yan Shansi in the Ministry of Rites every day.
And because the Ministry of Rites itself is in charge of peace talks, he can't even hide, and it's really miserable.
By the time Li Hong came out of the political hall, it was already noon, but Yan Shansi was still blocking him at the door.
"Your Highness, you promised the old minister that the old minister would settle the Turkic matter today......"
Old man Yan is a lot older, and staring at Li Hong with such a resentful gaze really made him lose goosebumps.
However, it does show how unbearable Yan Shansi is these days, in this short period of half a month, it is the fifth time that Yan Shansi has come to look for Li Hong, and now the guards of the East Palace know that this old man with a sad face every day is the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites.
It's just that the first few times, Li Hong asked him to slow down first, and then sent him back, until the last time, Old Man Yan was reluctant to leave in the East Palace no matter what.
Li Hong just promised him that he would solve this matter for him today!
So Yan Shansi rushed to the political hall early in the morning and waited, until now Li Honggang blocked him as soon as he went out.
Seeing this, Li Hong smiled and said.
"Yan Shangshu, do you think Lone will be untrustworthy?"
But this time, although Yan Shansi didn't speak, his straightforward expression was clearly saying, wouldn't it?
He is annoyed to death these days, and every time he goes to the East Palace, Li Hong will ask him to wait, but it's been half a month, and if he waits, the Ministry of Rites will simply stop doing anything!
Yan Shansi's serious expression made Li Hong smile bitterly, waved his hand and said.
"That's it, let's accompany Yan Shangshu today, and see how this Turkic made Yan Shangshu, who is long-sleeved and good at dancing, so tireless......"
Hearing this, Yan Shansi was overjoyed, and he couldn't care about the ridicule in Li Hong's tone, so he picked up Li Hong and left......
…………
"This ...... Yan Shangshu, shouldn't we go to Honglu Temple? ”
Looking at the place in front of him, Li Hong looked surprised, looked back at Yan Shansi, who was still calm, and asked.
Because the place where Yan Shansi brought him was not the Honglu Temple where Ashina Funian lived, but ...... Ministry of Rites!
"Your Highness, rest assured, such a simple thing as leading the way, the old minister will still do it! Your Highness, just go in and take a look! ”
Xu is finally dragged Li Hong over, Yan Shansi's expression at the moment was not as dignified as just now, and a wry smile appeared on his face, and he said.
Li Hong walked into the door of the Ministry of Rites with some doubts.
It's just that the scene inside surprised him a little.
In the originally orderly hall of the Ministry of Rites, the big men who were sitting in a bunch of Turkic costumes with great momentum, Ashina Fu Nian in the front sat cross-legged without saying a word, and there were two Turkic nobles standing beside him who were on duty with the Ministry of Rites...... Quarrel!
Li Hong stood outside the door and listened for a while, and found that the other party was simply messing around, not that the food provided today was not enough, or that the carriage was broken again, as long as the officials of the Ministry of Rites were angry and planned to drive them away, they began to say that they were here for peace talks, accusing Datang of being sincere?
"Your Highness, you have also seen it, let's talk to them about business, they will mess around, if they drive them away, they will say that they want to talk about business, no matter what, Ashina Fu Nian's identity is not mortal, and it is impossible for the old minister to really use any means, and they are just making trouble, occupying the lobby so that the Ministry of Rites can not work, and they don't do anything out of the ordinary, the old minister really has no choice, so he went to find His Royal Highness!"
Seeing this scene, Yan Shansi smiled bitterly and said to Li Hong.
After a pause, he said as if he was gritting his teeth.
"I don't know what they want to do, do you really think that my Datang will be afraid of their rogue behavior and give in?"
Unexpectedly, Li Hong pondered for a moment, and with a hint of understanding on his face, he pressed his hand.
"Yan Shangshu doesn't have to worry, since this matter is lonely, it will definitely be resolved! And the time for peace talks has dragged on long enough, so let's set it all together today! ”
It's just that Yan Shansi, who heard this, had wide-eyed eyes and looked incredulous.
Although it is suspected of being disrespectful to say this, Yan Shansi still has some doubts that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is too busy these days, so that he is a little dizzy......
The matter of peace talks is a matter of grinding ink, not to mention that now the Turks are resorting to such rogue methods, if it were so simple, he would have done it a long time ago, so why bother to bring Li Hong over.
However, just as Yan Shansi was stunned, Li Hong had already strode towards the hall of the Ministry of Rites.
And Wang Fusheng on the side had a straight face.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!"
This sound shocked the two sides who were originally arguing, especially the young official of the Ministry of Rites, when he saw Yan Shansi behind Li Hong, it was like seeing a relative.
The aggrieved ones almost shed tears.
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
Anyway, Li Hong is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, and there is still etiquette, Ashina Funian saw Li Hong come in, his eyes narrowed, he stood up, and respectfully led everyone to bow down.
It's just that the arrogance between the eyebrows has never been reduced by half a point, and there is even a trace of anger in the eyes of Li Hong.
However, Li Hong didn't care, didn't even pay attention to them, walked straight to the middle of the hall and sat down, and then pointed to the official of the Ministry of Rites who was still stunned, and asked.
"Does the Ministry of Rites have the documents for my Datang peace talks now?"
The document in Li Hong's mouth is naturally a peace negotiation treaty drawn up by the Tang Dynasty, and every clause in it is to safeguard the interests of the Tang Dynasty, and this is also the biggest reason why the peace talks between the two sides are difficult.
"Go back to Your Highness, of course there is, the minister will get it!"
Only then did the official of the Ministry of Rites react and hurriedly ran in to get the peace talks.
And Ashina Fu Nian was humiliated by Li Hong's attitude of complete ignorance, and his face turned blue and turned to look at Li Hong angrily.
"Hehe, after so many days, the Khan's body should be in good condition, and in this case, the Khan signed this document! Go back to the Turks as soon as possible! ”
Li Hong's face remained unchanged at all, and he took the document handed over by the official of the Ministry of Rites and threw it on the table in front of Ashina Fu Nian, and said lightly.
