(Tonight I was looking for a place with a USB flash drive everywhere, and it was easy to get to my colleague's house, but I actually touched the wrong door, and it was late, apologize, apologize again!) Next month, I will be on the battlefield list, and all book friends will greatly support it! )

"Your Majesty."

"Lu Qing is exempt."

Coincidentally, it was Lu Wen who was on duty. Lü Wen is an old minister of the East Palace, one of the cores of Wang Shuwen's group, and last year Tubo Zampu died, and Lü Wen was ordered to mourn as a member of the mission. Some people in history have said that if Lu Wen is here, Wang Shuwen Group will not fail, which shows that this person is capable. After returning to the court, because he was familiar with Tibetan affairs, Lü Wen entered the Hanlin Academy, and was in charge of the affairs of the Tibetan Uighurs in the Western Regions of Tibet in the Department of Grain and Straw Statistics.

Since it was an expert who came, Li Yu went straight to the point and asked:

"Do you know how many of the people of the Tang Dynasty were lost in Tibet, the Uighurs, and the Western Regions?"

Lu Wendao:

"I don't know the exact number. It has been nearly 50 years since Hehuang and Anxi fell to Tibet, and the population that was captured and taken captive in previous wars with Tibet has multiplied for decades, and although they have been tortured and killed repeatedly, the minister estimates that there are still no less than 300,000 Guangding Zhuang. The North Court is under the control of the Uighurs, and there may be tens of thousands of people in our court. As for going further west, the ministers were incompetent, and the funds of this division were limited, and they could not send personnel yet, so they could only rely on caravans to understand. According to some merchants, the children who were taken captive by the Turks, the military families who were captured before and after the Battle of Hengrus, and for many years were slaves in the original Zhaowu Nine Kingdoms and the Black Clothes and Great Food, and many of them could not even speak Chinese, and although they looked like Han people, they did not know that they were Tang people. ”

As he spoke, Lu Wen's voice also became low, and the sight of the fallen people crying behind the fence was what he had seen with his own eyes. Although the Tang Dynasty claimed that "the contract is one family", it was only positive discrimination due to self-confidence in ethnic policy, and when it came to these topics, the national feelings were seriously hurt.

Li Yu was too, and a sullen breath was held in Li Chen's heart. Li Yu asked:

"Qing has just returned from Tibet. In Qing's opinion, do the fallen people still have their hearts to the Tang Dynasty? ”

Lu Wendao:

"Other ministers don't dare to say it. The people of the land of Hehuang are still loyal to the Tang Dynasty. The ministers even thought that as long as the imperial court could provide them with weapons supply, the people of Hehuang alone could expel Tubo and restore Hehuang. If His Majesty wants to restore Hehuang, the minister thinks that he should plan as soon as possible, otherwise it will be too late to recover Hehuang and even Anxi Court when the people of Hehuang forget that they are Tang people. ”

Li Yu nodded and said:

"Aiqing's words are very meaningful. What if I want to save the Uighurs and the Great Eaters? ”

Lu Wen pondered for a long time and said:

"Your Majesty, why don't you follow the example of Lu Guo?"

In the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a decree in the Lu State, that is, whether it was an official, a merchant or something else, as long as the Lu State met a Lu person who was reduced to slavery abroad, he would be ransomed back, and the money spent would be compensated by the government.

Li Yu nodded and said:

"Good!"

The first year of Yeongjeong passed quickly. When Yongzhen came in the second year, it was a new atmosphere. When the envoys of various towns spent countless money in Chang'an and set out on the way home with the emperor's reward, they were surprised to find that the road in Guanzhong had been renovated, and it was much better than when they came, and the broken trees on the side of the road had also dug tree pits to be repaired. On both sides of the road, you can see many busy people, or building water conservancy, or leveling the land, and the whole Guanzhong is a busy scene.

Before the New Year, envoys from the feudal towns returned to the town one after another. Li Jiang would report to Li Yu every night on the activities of these envoys in Chang'an. On the fourth day after the meeting, Li Jiang hurriedly came to the imperial study and reported:

"Wu Yuanji has returned to town."

Li Yu nodded to know. Li Jiang continued:

The strange thing is that Li Gongdu did not return to Ziqing and gave gifts everywhere in Beijing. His subordinate officer, Li Shitao, left the city early this morning and has not returned, and the people who monitored him said that these people were carrying a little luggage. ”

Li Yu still didn't react, and was about to ask about the situation of the others, when he suddenly came back to his senses, it was impossible for Li Jiang to report irrelevant things to him, so he suddenly raised his head and asked:

"What did this person do in Chang'an?"

"This person is peaceful, unlike Li Gongdu, who goes in and out of the minister's mansion every day and the courtyard of famous people. It's just that I occasionally go to the East and West markets to buy some Danqing materials, or buy some musical instruments. The day before yesterday, I was still in the Qin Tower and played a song with the musicians. ”

"What instrument does he use?"

"Hu Li (the words can't be typed)."

Li Yu stood up and said:

"Master Li!"

Li Jiang knelt down and said ashamedly:

The minister was incompetent, so he didn't react and let him run. Ziqing's insider report today reported that he had not seen Li Shidao for more than ten days, and the minister guessed that this person might be Li Shidao. If the minister is derelict in his duties, please ask Your Majesty to remove him from his position and punish the crime of the minister. ”

Li Chanted:

"I don't blame you for this, get up, I have seen this man with you, but I never thought that this man would be so bold. The prime ministers all thought that Master Li was a gentleman and only knew how to have fun, but now it seems that this person has a lot of ambitions. In the future, we must be careful and thorough in collecting information. Do everything possible to leave portraits of the generals and staff of each town. Have you left any portraits of all the people who came to the court this time? ”

Li Jiang said:

"It's all left. Does Your Majesty want to chase Li Shidao? ”

Li Chanted:

"Pick out Master Li's and archive the others! He has been gone for a day, at least more than a hundred miles, let him live a few more years! ”

At dawn, on the Qianli Valley Road outside Tongguan, several riders were riding on the mountain, and there were a few horses on the side, which were obviously used for transfer. The weather was cold, and although several people were wearing leather clothes, their faces were still red from the cold, and without exception, their eye circles were also red. One of the men in front shouted:

"It's coming, it's coming!"

Several riders whistled and rushed down the mountain. The approaching group of men and horses was obviously surprised, but they did not panic, and immediately a dozen horsemen greeted them with bows and arrows, and the others picked up weapons to protect both sides. The few people who came down the mountain here sprinted and reined in their horses, and one of them drove forward and said loudly:

"The Huaixi soldiers and horses really live up to their reputation. But is this how General Wu is hospitable? ”

The person on the horse was none other than Li Shidao.

When Li Shidao sneaked to Huaixi to see Wu Shaocheng and Wu Shaoyang, Li Yu also completed the plan for the second year of Yongzhen.

In the second year of Yongzhen, with Lu Zhen, Zheng Yuqing, and Wu Yuanheng serving as envoys to the court the previous year, the prime minister will be served by the following people:

Du Huangshang, Li Jifu, Yu Di, Li Xun, Pei Yan.

According to Li Jifu's plan, in addition to Lu Zhen, Zheng Yuqing, and Wu Yuanheng, there will also be a group of important ministers who will be appointed as Jiedu envoys, and a group of Jiedu envoys will be recruited into the court, and some Jiedu envoys will be reversed, and some feudal towns will be abolished at the same time. In this year, the imperial court will try to shake the Tibetan rule over Hehuang before negotiating with the Tibetans. This year, there will be big political and economic moves.

"Yongzhen two years, let's wait and see!"

At the imperial meeting, Li Yu said confidently.
