After a pause, Xu Jingzong continued.

"Your Highness, the courtiers' criticism, we can suppress it, but Your Highness, don't forget, that Ashina Fu Nian's biggest helper, but Your Majesty! As long as he threatens His Majesty with the matter of harmony, I am afraid that His Majesty may not agree to the matter of reparation! ”

Xu Jingzong's meaning is very clear, the courtiers can handle it, but Li Zhi's side is not easy to speak, now the only reliance of the Turks, and the biggest reliance is the strategy of harmony, compared to the indemnity, I am afraid that Li Zhi is more concerned about the Turkic king through harmony.

So relatively speaking, Li Zhi is the biggest problem, and at most they can help Li Hong deal with the courtiers, and Li Zhi is afraid that Li Hong will have to figure it out by himself......

"Hehe, Xu Xiang on my father's side don't have to worry, presumably my father is wise and will definitely not be confused by traitors!"

Li Hong said confidently, but Xu Jingzong had a puzzled look.

He knew that Li Hong would definitely not be so naïve, and he must have prepared a backhand that could convince Li Zhi, so he had to say a little helplessly at the moment.

"Although Your Majesty is wise, but the Turks are cunning, Your Highness can be sure?"

It is not to blame Xu Jingzong for being cautious, after all, this matter is not small, and Xu Jingzong has vaguely tested the attitude of the Empress Wu, and the Empress Wu is also very in favor of this matter, and judging from the look of the Empress Wu, Li Zhi's attitude towards this matter is very resolute.

So Xu Jingzong really couldn't think of any way to make Li Zhi change his mind.

"Hehe, the reason of the Turks is just that the father wants to turn the Turks into kings, so he will make a slight concession to them, but if he wants to subdue the Turks, why use the method of harmony?"

A sneer appeared on Li Hong's face, this matter could be said to be the one thing he had thought about the most in so long. How could it be that this was not taken into account.

It is simply ridiculous that the Turks want to threaten him with this.

After a pause, Li Hong continued.

"The reason why the Turks have been able to surrender and rebel and rebel and surrender is only two reasons, one is that they do not understand etiquette. Wild and untamable, when you are weak, you will surrender to my Tang Dynasty, and when you are strong, you will rebel, and secondly, it is bitter and cold, lacking many things, such as salt, iron, tea and other essential things, but it is difficult for the Turks to make. You can only trade with my Datang. ”

When everyone heard Li Hong's words, they all nodded, this was indeed the reason for the repeated rebellions of the Turks.

They all know in their hearts, but there has been no good solution, if they are soft, the Turks will inevitably rebel after they become strong, this is the instinct of human nature, no one can solve it.

However, if it is controlled by salt, iron, etc. Even cutting off the supply will force it to reverse. It's hard to grasp the degree of this, and that's where they find it difficult.

As soon as he thought of this, everyone looked at Li Hong with a little more expectation, and since Li Hong saw this, I am afraid that he also had a way to deal with it.

However, Li Hong's face was still very calm, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes. Go on.

"And the Turks have always been wild and untamable, and our Tang Dynasty merchants often lost all their money when they traded with them, and even worse, they dared to plunder the border people. In just one year, the emperor ordered the closure of the mutual market, and they dared to rebel without authorization, which was simply lawless! ”

Li Hong's voice was vaguely angry.

After a while, Li Hong calmed down, but there was a bit of coldness in his tone, and he said lightly.

"It's not realistic to think about it and want to solve the border matter in one fell swoop!"

Hearing Li Hong's words, everyone present couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but even though they shook their heads, if this problem was so easy to solve, then they wouldn't be distressed for so long!

"But ......"

Li Hong changed his words, a sneer resurfaced on his face, and said lightly.

"If you talk about this matter, it's not that there is no way to solve it, if the operation is good, even if it can't solve the border trouble, it can ensure that my Datang will be invincible in the future!"

Now it was the turn of everyone in the hall to be amazed.

Even Xu Jingzong didn't have time to care about Li Hongda's gasp, but asked urgently.

"What is Your Highness's plan?"

Since listening to Li Hong's method of dealing with the Turks just now, Xu Jingzong really felt that this prince was full of wit, and maybe he could really solve this matter.

Not to mention anything else, as long as Li Hong's method can ensure that the Tang Dynasty will not start a war for a hundred years, then those of them who participated can leave their names in history, how can he not be excited!

You must know that among the people in the hall, only Xu Jingzong is the oldest, the highest official position, and the oldest, in terms of authority, he has long been unable to go further, in terms of money, he has not lacked savings for so many years, and the only thing he cares about is the name behind him!

That's why he's so excited!

"Hehe, there is a way! Since the Turks have received the grain of my Datang, they naturally can't leave in vain, even if they have just after the war, their vitality is greatly damaged, and it is difficult to have cattle, sheep and horses, but people always have it! ”

A mysterious smile appeared on Li Hong's face, and he said lightly.

This old fox has finally taken the bait!

"What does Your Highness mean?"

Xu Jingzong vaguely understood what Li Hong meant, and couldn't help but ask with a shiny look in his eyes.

"A few days ago, my father recruited the victims near Chang'an to repair the Daming Palace, and now after the beginning of spring, the Daming Palace should also be repaired, and these victims have also got their own wages and are ready to return to their hometowns to continue farming.

But I still have Luoyang Palace, Lishan Palace, no matter how bad the Yellow River repair, the maintenance of the Grand Canal, all require a lot of labor, and my Tang Dynasty is now rich, repair this kind of drudgery, many people would rather offset with money than work, if you let the Turks do it, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds? ”

Li Hong's voice was slightly cold, and he said in a deep voice.

"Your Highness's plan is good, but not to mention the long distance between the two places, whether those Turks are willing to come here, if such a large number of Turks pour into the Central Plains, I am afraid it will be a big hidden danger!"

In contrast, Dai Zhide was more calm and carefully analyzed the disadvantages of this matter.

The project Li Hong said does require a large number of laborers, but what is needed are young and middle-aged, so many foreign races have poured into the Central Plains, if something goes wrong, I'm afraid no one can bear this responsibility!

"Dai Xiang's words are reasonable, but now that the Turks have just fought a big war, their vitality is greatly damaged, I am afraid that it will be difficult to provoke trouble for a while, and even if there is an influx of young and middle-aged people, my Datang army will naturally be strictly guarded, and disperse it to various places, and work together with my Datang people, and they will not be able to make any big waves!

As for whether they are willing to come or not, I Datang can promise to let them bring back some salt, tea and other things when they return, and ensure that their tribe is not invaded, presumably they must be competing to come! ”

Li Hong left a small trick in his words, he said that salt, tea and other things are daily necessities, even if you bring some back, it won't take long to run out, but for the Turks, it is an incomparably huge attraction.

"Having said that, the Turks mostly live in bitter cold places, if there are no young adults in winter, the tribe will definitely find it difficult to survive, even if there is a reward, I am afraid they will not leave the tribe to trek through the mountains and rivers!"

Xu Jingzong also reacted at this time, and also realized that Li Hong's method was indeed unrealistic...... (To be continued.) )
