In the early morning, the gate of Chang'an was still closed, inherited from the chaos of the Northern and Southern Dynasties for hundreds of years, and the city curfew was still strictly enforced in Chang'an, but this morning, the calm of Chang'an was broken by the sound of rapid horses' hooves. [This site has a new domain name. initials, previously registered accounts can still be used]

"Three hundred miles of urgency, urgent report at the border gate!"

The three horses were vertical and horizontal, splashing bursts of cold soil in the wild run, close to the cold of early winter, the snort of the war horse spewed out bursts of white smoke, and the red feathers inserted in the knight's helmet were hunting in the cold wind, and by the morning light, Zhang Pin, the guard of Tonghua Gate, looked at this scene and took a deep breath of cold air.

In the seventeenth year of Zhenguan, the Red Silk Messenger appeared a total of five times, from the earliest Turkic invasion to the later Zhennuoshui, although the later wars ended in the complete victory of the Tang Dynasty, but each time, it was about a huge national war.

"Put the hanging basket!"

Hung on the city wall, the three border messengers changed their horses again, went straight to Yanjiamen along Daning Street, and went straight to Taiji Palace through Changle Gate under the coercion of Yanjiamen Qianniuwei, after a pillar of incense, several panting messengers appeared in front of Li Shimin's imperial security, holding Li Daozong's own inscription, Li Shimin was so angry that his face was blue and trembling.

Half an hour later, all the important ministers above the third grade of Chang'an were summoned to the court, walking between the Chengtian Gate, the eldest grandson Wuji's hand holding the guard board was a little trembling, since the eldest grandson weaved that day for Li Jie's leave, the old fox has been restless, and his eyes closely followed Li Jie's car, but so far, there has been no heresy.

Your Majesty suddenly has a trick, it can't be that this kid has something to do, right?

Worried, the eldest grandson Wuji didn't go to communicate with Yu Zhining and Chu Suiliang, who were gathered together and whispered, and he was in a hurry with his head stuffy, but in front of the Ganlu Palace, the eldest grandson Wuji habitually looked back, but he happened to see Fang Xuanling, who was a few years behind him, and Shangshu Zuo Servant, who had always been known for his outstanding demeanor, seemed to have a very bad face today.

On the manna hall, a stack of folds was thrown to the ground full of anger, Tie Qing had a face, Li Shimin opened his eyes angrily, the green tendons on his forehead shook with the roughness, and he shouted at the ministers with anger.

"Shame!"

The Heqin delegation was attacked and looted, except for the most humiliating days of the Han Dynasty and the Huns, for hundreds of years, it has been a symbol of a poor and weak country, and now it has been robbed on the head of Li Shimin, who is known as the heavenly khan, and the old guy has the heart to copy the knife on the spot.

Although Li Jie drove to Qinghai and Shuozhou, he didn't know why, holding the chapter, the eldest grandson Wuji and the old fox always flashed Li Jie's scoundrel face in his mind, and glanced back at Fang Xuanling, whose face seemed to be more gloomy, and the eldest grandson Wuji pinched the cold and cold wat and twitched the corners of his eyes for a while, so he decided to wait and see first.

As everyone knows, it seems that Fang Xuanling also has the same idea, and the left and right servants are dumb fire, and the Zhongshu Ling Cen text under them, and the advice doctor Chu Suiliang and others are not good offside for a while, so the first to fire is the military general group.

"Your Highness, the Shandan tribe should be razed to the ground! Xiangxiong should be defeated, and the minister is willing to ask for a division to take the head of the master of Xiangxiong and return it to His Majesty! ”

Wu Wu is the second, except for the Taishi Li Jing's transcendent status, the rest of the generals don't pay attention to the order of status, the hot-tempered Cheng Zhijie jumped out first, and this time it exploded in the group of generals, Li Daliang, Xue Wanche, Wei Chi Gong and others jumped out one after another and shouted together, a bunch of tiger eyes did not give in to each other, and the smell of gunpowder was full.

However, the strange thing is that the commander-in-chief who participated in the Battle of Songzhou, Hou Junji, the secretary of the military department, was silent in the back, not knowing what to calculate, and Niu Jinda, who directly charged on the front line, also wanted to speak and stopped, and it took a long time before he crossed the noisy group of generals to the front, and he was a little cautious.

"Your Majesty is angry, and the minister thinks that this matter should be delayed."

"Old Niu, Songzhou has taken a walk, why have you become less courageous, Tubo has fallen under the iron hooves of my Tang Dynasty, what is a Xiangxiong?" Without waiting for Li Shimin to say anything with a gloomy face, Cheng Zhijie was already shouting with mockery, Niu Jinda's long cow face was dark, and he was about to refute something, when Li Jing, the head of the generals, who had not been to the court for a long time, suddenly coughed lightly.

"Your Majesty, Jinda, Junji have all clashed with Tubo, they know the situation in Tubo, why don't you listen to them?"

Hou Junji's whole body trembled slightly, but soon his face was as usual, and he was offside with his usual gloomy face, and he was the first to pray. "Your Majesty, the minister believes that if you attack Zhangxiong, you must prepare for more than a year."

For Hou Junji, Li Shimin is still very important, otherwise he would not have been used again after Hou Junji embezzled in Gaochang, hearing this, Li Shimin also restrained some anger, leaned over and asked.

"Where did Junji come from?"

"Your Majesty, the Tibetan Xiangxiong is different from the Central Plains! The high mountains are continuous, the folk customs are fierce, especially on the high mountains, there seems to be a god Yu Wei, although Songzhou won a big victory, but when I was in pursuit of the Tang Dynasty soldiers, there was a dizziness, stiff and died of strange sounds, the minister once visited the local Qiang merchants, all outsiders entered the plateau, when the first pilgrimage to the gods, more than the year can be as. ”

Hou Junji said a lot, nothing more than that he couldn't explain altitude sickness, and he needed to adapt before entering Tibet, but in ancient times, people admired the gods, so he said that the military generals group who were boiling against the sky were also quiet, and dozens of important ministers were careful to look at Li Shimin, who had a gloomy face, and similarly, Li Shimin's heart was also violently weighed.

It takes a year to send troops to attack, and these heavy supplies are not a small amount for Datang, hesitating, Li Shimin's gaze habitually drifted to the head of the civilian prime minister, and fell on the head of the eldest grandson Wuji, his heart tightened, and the eldest grandson Wuji knew that it would not work if he didn't speak at this time, so he stepped forward and thought about it for a while, and then said slowly.

"Your Majesty, at this time, the situation is still a one-sided statement of the King of Jiangxia, the actual situation has not yet been clarified, and there is no news of the Tubo Prime Minister Lu Dongzan, the minister believes that he should not draw conclusions lightly, and should send a delegation to visit the matter before making plans."

"Besides, among the generals, the king of Jiangxia quelled the Tuyuhun rebellion, has rich experience in highland operations, and he is a party to the party, and many things need the king of Jiangxia to return to Beijing to carry out."

After saying this, Li Shimin finally nodded, and at this time, Fang Xuanling also came out of the crowd and bowed slightly and said.

"Your Majesty, the Eastern Expedition is imminent, and the government officials have been preparing for a long time, and they are already ready to fly, and it is really unwise to fight on both sides at this time, I hope Your Majesty will ruling."

This is said to be on the sore spot of Li Shimin, the same second son ascended the throne, the Emperor Tian Khan has always hoped to completely defeat Goguryeo, in order to show that he surpassed the previous dynasty, the Eastern Expedition has been prepared for several years, and the Tubo relatives are also for the Eastern Expedition, at this time to transfer troops to the west, in the final analysis, Li Shimin is also unwilling.

However, the dignity of the country must also be maintained, and although he no longer has the consciousness of making a big move, Li Shimin still pondered for a moment and made some decisions.

"The elite cadres of the Honglu Temple Group of Dali Temple in Chuanshangshu Province went to Songzhou to find out the matter, and recruited the King of Jiangxia to return to Beijing at the same time."

After a pause, Li Shiming's eyes suddenly fell on Hou Junji again, and he said in a calm voice. "Hou Qing, you have a lot of insight into Tibet, I want you to be the head of the Jiaohe River March, and the prime minister will attack and defend the west, I don't know if it's possible?"

The gentleman's tone of discussion to his subordinates can be seen in grace, but his eyes flickered, and Hou Junji still bowed down and replied. "Your Majesty, the minister has recently suffered from an old illness, and his health is not good for walking, so I am afraid that he will lose his grace."

"In that case, I won't be reluctant."

Saying this, Li Shimin's eyes still showed disappointment and some unclear things, and after a while, he immediately turned his gaze to the other end.

"Niu Qing, I ordered you to be the head of the Qingqiang Road march, and go to Songzhou on the same day to assist the mission in the investigation, and not to start the war easily."

"The Ministry of War issued an edict to recruit and transfer the soldiers of the Longyou Folded Chong Mansion to the top of the government, and the left and right guards were ready for war."

"The Ministry of Household issued a decree to transfer grain and grass from Huainan Province into Beijing in case of emergency."

"Ministry of Industry Decree ......"

Under the polish of the prime minister's important ministers, one by one, it was sent to all parts of the country, although it was not decided that it must be fought, but the war machine of the Tang Dynasty was still rumbling, and in just one morning, more than 100,000 troops were implicated, and the decision of the fate of millions of people had been sent out from Chang'an, the heart of the Tang Dynasty, and at the same time, the destruction of the family group also caused an uproar in Chang'an.

Except for the Weishui Alliance, Datang has never encountered such an insult in more than ten years.

However, when Datang was operating rapidly, a group of people were leisurely driving on the road to Shuozhou on the grassland, which seemed to have nothing to do with the uproar, Datang is really a vast territory, Guanzhong has just felt the cold of midwinter, and the Hetao has already said that Zou Snow has begun to fall, and the earth is silvery.

"It's really, really, it's so cold!"

Wrapped in three layers of big cotton clothes, they all looked like a big bear, Li Jie was still yelling cold, in the carriage, while taking care of the stove on the side, the little girl next to him muttered angrily.

"Yes, who let you go out on your own and go crazy?"

The little girl is really quite pretty, her white and delicate little face exudes a unique crystalline, and her small figure wrapped in the down jacket of the winter coat in her previous life is also quite attractive, and she is also wearing a sweater with exquisite patterns under her open arms, which is completely different from the wild girl with a dark face more than ten days ago.

Especially this girl's hand is also clever enough, the sweater Li Jie wears, the sweater she wears herself, and the sweater mailed back to Chang'an, all of which she knitted, after Li Jie got out the wool, a few needles, just a few times, this girl can knit decently.

Although he stuffed that batch of craftsmen to his hard-pressed brother Li Su, the king of Shu, this thorn Li Jie still stayed by his side, looking at her bewitching little figure and pretty face, Li Jie felt that he was right, but ......

"Look at what, don't think that if you didn't kill me, I will be grateful to you! Also, if you go out and go crazy again today, my aunt and grandmother will never give you any more medicine! ”

Shrunk his gaze in a daze, Li Jie felt aggrieved for a while, this girl doesn't know how to raise it, she is still so spicy in this virtuous and virtuous environment, she needs to be trained more!

"Hey, Pei Ying, you are my concubine now, do you talk to your husband like this?"

"Who, who, who's going to marry you?" As soon as she said this, the little girl's pretty face suddenly turned red, and a pair of bright big eyes glared at Li Jie angrily, and then looked around with a weak heart, that night, in order to teach this unbelieving girl a lesson, Li Jie simply slapped her on her upturned little buttocks.

As a result, the unique voice made the accompanying rangers have strange eyes the next day, and Pei Ying, who couldn't get up with a swollen buttocks, faced Li Jie brazenly boasted that she had taught her a few times in one night, and Yunyun was also speechless, and she became the fourth concubine of King Shuo.

Looking at this girl's embarrassed appearance, Li Jie suddenly felt a burst of pride, hey, I'm a hooligan, who am I afraid of! However, his pride didn't last long, and suddenly there was a knock on the door outside the car window, and Yang Yi's voice slowly came in. "Your Highness, it's time to come out and let the wind out."

Nima! Thinking of the cold outside, Li Jie wailed again.
