Chapter 11: Searching for Du Fu

Li Linfu is known for his jealousy and jealousy, and the reason why he did this was to maintain his power and stabilize his position.

As for "honey in his mouth and a sword in his belly", it is just a means for him to achieve this end.

As long as it threatens his status, even if it is a little bud, he will not let it go, he must be killed and then rest assured.

His questioning was to set a big trap for Li Changguo, that is, to test whether Gao Xianzhi had any intention of threatening him, if so, then he would be sorry, even if he was the protector of Anxi, he would have to do enough to do something about this great victory.

Li Changguo pronounced the word "first" a little heavily, which was telling Li Linfu that I came to see you as soon as I came to Chang'an, you can rest assured.

Li Linfu was very satisfied with Li Changguo's answer, but this person was old and cunning, the city government was too deep, and his joy and anger were invisible, so he didn't show it.

The glint in his eyes was a sign of appreciation.

If Li Changguo wants to stop the Anshi Rebellion and prevent the Tang Dynasty from decaying, Li Linfu will definitely be the one to kill, but this will be talked about later. At present, Li Changguo should focus on building his own foundation; If you want to improve your status and have a lot of voice in the Tang Dynasty, you have to make contributions; If you want to make meritorious contributions, you have to take advantage of the situation and not show any signs of threatening Li Linfu.

If Li Changguo showed signs of threatening Li Linfu at this time, Li Linfu would have choked Li Changguo to death with one finger, and forbearance was the best policy at the moment.

"Bring it on!"

Li Linfu was satisfied and no longer tested Li Changguo.

Li Changguo took out Gao Xianzhi's watch seal and handed it to the bodyguard, who took it and presented it to Li Linfu.

Li Linfu took it in his hand, opened it up and browsed it, nodded lightly, and said with a smile: "Gao Xianzhi is a young genius, and he is at the same rank as his father Gao Sheji at a young age, and he is a good story. With his talent, he accumulated merit and was promoted to the deputy capital of the Anxi Protectorate, and now he has laid down the small Bolu, cut off the passage of Tubo into the Western Regions, and separated Tubo and Dashi, so that the Tang Dynasty can break through. ”

The words were carefully spoken, and the tone was steady, without any fluctuations.

Li Changguo heard it in his ears, but he was surprised, and secretly praised himself: "Although this Li Linfu is a great annihilator who has been infamous for thousands of years, he is talented, and he hits the nail on the head, and he explains the current strategy of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty clearly in one sentence." ”

Xiao Bolu was insignificant, and it was only because he was on the road that Tubo had to pass to enter the Western Regions that it was particularly important. Xiao Bolu was defeated, cutting off the passage of Tibet into the Western Regions, and the possibility of the Tibetan and Arab Empires joining forces again was zero.

As long as the Tibetan and Arab empires could not join forces, it would be a good opportunity for the Tang Dynasty to defeat the Tibetan and Arab empires with its strong national strength.

"The prime minister is wise!"

Although Li Changguo did not have a good impression of Li Linfu, he had to praise sincerely.

These words are very sincere, Li Linfu will not fail to hear them, he glanced at Li Changguo appreciatively, and said: "Xiao Bolu is located between the treacherous mountains and evil waters of the green mountains, the mountains are high and the forests are dense, easy to defend and difficult to attack, you can fight down, it is not easy, you have to endure hardships, right?" ”

"The march was full of difficulties, and the soldiers suffered a lot." When Li Changguo said this, he changed his words and said: "However, we are Tang Dynasty men, and no matter how difficult and dangerous he is, he can't stop us from moving forward!" Green Ridge can't! Tubo can't! You can't eat big! ”

The tone of these words is a little high, but it is full of pride!

Who is a Tang boy who has no pride?

Several of Li Linfu's personal guards gave Li Changguo a seat and raised his head and puffed up his chest.

Li Linfu straightened his clothes, sat more steadily, and clapped his hands lightly: "Well said!" The Datang man has his own ambitions! It is precisely because of this fierce ambition of the Tang Dynasty that the Turkic, Tuyuhun, Goryeo, Khitan, Tubo, and Dashi ...... Defeat either! ”

Although he is a minister, he is also a minister of Datang, and he will be proud of Datang.

"In this southern expedition, we have captured a lot, and the deputy capital guard has selected some treasures for the majority of the capital guard." Li Changguo's success in Beijing this time was secondary, and the most important thing was to ask for reinforcements, in order to achieve this goal, Gao Xianzhi took great pains to prepare a lot of gifts.

Li Linfu, as the protector of Anxi, this gift must be indispensable.

"Bring it in." Li Linfu, as the prime minister, has a huge family wealth, looking at the world, few people can compare, and the idle gold and silver treasures are just dung in his eyes. However, the capture of the Tang army's southern expedition is a different matter, because the meaning is completely different.

It was impossible for Kant to come in, so Li Linfu's personal guards brought the boxes in, put them on the ground, and opened them one by one, and there were pearls from Dashi, tortoiseshells from Persia, and jade from Kunshan in the Western Regions...... There are many dazzling, innumerable, jewels, and people are dizzying.

Li Linfu just glanced at it, and he was not interested in looking at it again.

For him, he has a lot of these things, and as long as he wants, he can use pearls as a bed to sleep.

"Prime Minister, in this southern expedition, we have seized a batch of big food scimitars, which are extremely sharp. The deputy capital protector has selected one for you, I don't know if the prime minister likes it? Li Changguo stepped forward and reported loudly.

"Oh!" Li Linfu's brows stood up, quite interested, and said: "I have heard for a long time that the big food scimitar is extremely sharp, not to mention, it is even more luxurious, decorated with pearls, and presented to it." ”

Of course, it is impossible for Li Changguo to present it to Li Linfu, and his personal guards will still do it for him.

Li Linfu took it in his hand, pulled out the knife from its sheath, and saw that the light of the knife flickered, and it was extremely sharp. What's even more rare is that the handle of the knife is decorated with pearls, which is extremely valuable.

With a flick of the wrist, a floating knife flower flashed, and from the perspective of Li Changguo's expert, Li Linfu's knife skills were quite good. It's no wonder that Datang established the country with martial arts, who doesn't practice martial arts?

"Huh!" Li Linfu's angry face finally showed a smile, and he looked at the big food scimitar left and right, very happy, and said: "Gao Xianzhi is a person with a heart, and he did this to make me, the capital of Anxi, protect more reinforcements." Well, you handed over Su Defeat and Princess Tubo to the military department. ”

It can be seen that Li Linfu is very concerned.

In order to stabilize his power and maintain his position, Li Linfu did everything he could, and his secret sword was his forte. These things are a little worse than the meritorious deeds, not to mention that Xiao Bolu has beaten down, the situation in the Western Regions is very good, he can make a cheap military exploit, why not do it?

Lee Chang Kook's borrowing was very successful.

Li Changguo said goodbye and left, went to the military department to hand over Su Defeat and Princess Tubo, and the matter of reporting the victory was over.

As soon as the business was over, Li Bai shouted that he wanted to find Du Fu, and Li Changguo was very enthusiastic and went with him.

I have already met Shixian, if I see Shisheng again, it will definitely be a great blessing in life, Li Changguo is looking forward to meeting Du Fu.

However, they searched for several times, but there was no trace of Du Fu.

Li Bai's original optimism no longer exists, and his heart is heavy.

"Du Fu's words must be not good!" Li Changguo was secretly worried about Du Fu.
