169. Candidates for envoys to the Turks

Princess Ashinayun has also left Datang for nearly a month, and she has returned to the Turks for a long time. In fact, Chang'an City is not far from Dingxiang City, which is occupied by the Turks. Dingxiang has been made by the Turks to the equivalent of the capital, and even the Turkic nobles of Jieli often live in Dingxiang. Therefore, Ashina Yun is actually just returning to Dingxiang, and under normal circumstances, he will be able to return in less than half a month.

And those Turkic nobles should also have tasted the taste of tea, and I am afraid that they are about to come to have business exchanges with Datang, so Jingwen is already preparing to count the money. Now the tea is only owned by himself, and many tea trees in the south have been bought by Jingwen, so Jingwen is ready to make a lot of money.

Sure enough, when it came to the court in mid-June, Li Daozong, the king of Hongluqing, took the initiative to come out. Honglu Temple is a yamen in charge of diplomatic work, so it is normal for him to come forward.

"Your Majesty, a Turkic envoy has come to my Datang, hoping that my Datang can send an envoy to Dingxiangcheng to discuss the issue of trade between the two countries." Li Daozong said.

Now Li Daozong actually wants to send someone out to discuss the issue of trade, and Jingwen is also wondering, who will he send on this errand? I'm afraid that this trade issue is not so easy to discuss. In ancient times, there were very few people who could attach importance to commerce, and the government affairs of commerce and trade were probably very unfamiliar to those officials in ancient times. This has also caused us to suffer a lot from trade in ancient times, especially with a country with a complex relationship with the Turks, so we must be careful, without many years of experience! I'm afraid that even Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui are not qualified for this position, because they are not very proficient in business.

Even, when those ministers heard that they were going to the Turks, they all shook their heads. The Turks are not a good place, because the Turks are murderous characters without blinking! If you offend, it's probably very dangerous. Therefore, no one wanted to go to the Turks at all, and everyone subconsciously left Li Daozong's side, obviously not wanting to be noticed by Li Daozong.

"Do you have any candidates?" Li Shimin asked.

Li Daozong looked around at the people in the hall, and it seemed that there was no suitable person to come forward. In fact, there are many people who can come forward, but I am afraid that there are few who can ensure that Datang will not suffer. Therefore, Li Daozong was not selected for a while. I'm afraid that the characters in Honglu Temple are not competent, because Li Daozong, as Hongluqing, he understands this very well. Now it is so difficult to find someone who is bold and capable of this task from among the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty?

Li Daozong suddenly saw a figure in the corner of the Taiji Palace, and immediately came out, saying: "The minister recommends Shi Jingwen, the servant in the palace, and asks him to go to the Turks, and the minister thinks that he will definitely be able to get very good results." ”

Everyone looked at Jingwen, as if they were worried about whether Jingwen would be able to handle this position.

But Jingwen scolded in his heart: "Your grandfather's Li Daozong, Lao Tzu has an enmity with you!" I have no grudge against you in the past, and I have no enmity in the near future, what do you mean by sending me to the Turks? Is your daughter married to Li Xueyan, the princess of Wencheng who is Songtsen Gampo? Do you believe that I dare to soak your daughter in the future? ”

It can be seen from the sky that Li Xueyan is only about three years old this year, and Jingwen is thinking about soaking others, which shows that Jingwen is definitely a scumbag.

"What's the point? Why do you think Jingwen is competent? Li Shimin asked.

Li Daozong immediately replied: "Your Majesty, Jingwen Yushi is not only eloquent, but also courageous and knowledgeable, so he must be able to work as an envoy." Moreover, now the entire Chang'an City knows that Jingwen Yushi is not only a good official hand, but also a wealthy businessman and a wealthy businessman with outstanding ability. Even, this tea was invented by him, so only he knows best. It can be seen that it is most normal for Jingwen Yushi to come forward. ”

When the officials in the court heard this reason, they all nodded and praised. Because only Jingwen is the most suitable for this task, everyone agrees. What's more, of course, they have to push it as much as they can, and push this responsibility to others, so they don't have to do it themselves. And now that they have such a suitable candidate, can they still say anything? Therefore, they all agreed with Li Daozong's words, and obviously wanted Li Shimin to send Jingwen to envoy to the Turks.

And even Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, Hongluqing's words are very good!" In terms of ability and experience, only Jingwen Yushi can do it, so he also asked the emperor to send Jingwen Yushi to envoy to the Turks, and the minister believed that Jingwen Yushi would not live up to the emperor's expectations. ”

"The ministers asked the emperor to send Jingwen Yushi to envoy to the Turks, and the ministers believe that Jingwen Yushi will be able to do the job!"

When Jingwen saw this, he wanted to cry very much. The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty hoped that Jingwen would send an envoy to the Turks, didn't this make Jingwen suffer? Let's not say that the Turks are afraid that they are extremely cruel, let's just say that what good can the Turks have? In Chang'an, a place with very complete social infrastructure, why should you go to the Turks to suffer! Therefore, when Jingwen saw this situation, he had already scolded these officials countless times in his heart. These officials are really unrighteous and can really shirk their responsibilities, and these birdmen are too unserious and responsible for their work.

"Old Wei, it's up to you!" Jingwen said to Wei Zheng with his eyes.

Now Jingwen can only ask Wei Zheng, because Jingwen is not very familiar with others, so he can only hope that Wei Zheng will help him speak.

Wei Zheng saw Jingwen's eyes, and immediately came out and said: "Your Majesty, Jingwen Yushi is a man from Dingxiang County, and the feudal town is in Dingxiang." Therefore, it is the responsibility to defend the land, and Jingwen Yushi must go to the Turks. If you can't go to the Turks to get back the sovereignty of this Dingxiang County, it will be the loss of land by Jingwen Yushi, and you must be held accountable. ”

"Old Wei, you fell into the well!" Jing Wen scolded Wei Zheng in his heart.

This Wei Zheng said that Jingwen was a man from Dingxiang County, but this title Jingwen didn't take it seriously at all, but now it has become the responsibility to investigate Jingwen for losing his territory. Although many people know that Dingxiang County has long been lost, and now it has not been recovered at all, and it is not possible to use this reason to hold people responsible. But now that Wei Heizi is actually talking about things for this reason, then everyone can't say anything!

"Well, since that's the case, let's let Shi Jingwen, the servant in the palace, go!" Emperor Li Shimin said.

Jingwen was speechless, since Li Shimin said so, it seems that there is no way to undo it, and he must take a trip.
