In April of the fourth year of Zhenguan, after the victory of the Northern Expedition, all Turkic tribes wrote to express their willingness to join.

In order to properly handle this issue, Li Shimin summoned all officials in Beijing who were above the fifth grade to discuss and discuss the issue.

The opinion of most courtiers was that they should be relocated to Henan, scattered in various prefectures and counties, taught them to cultivate and pioneer, and all customs and habits were required by the standards of the Han people, so that they would become Han over time.

Wen Yanbo's opinion is a little different from everyone's, because he has lived in the North for a short time and knows the Turkic mind very well.

The customs of the Hu people and the Han people are different, and if they are allowed to live with the Han people, it is easy to have conflicts and frictions with each other.

He advocated following the Jianwu Emperor Liu Xiu's resettlement method for the Xiongnu who returned to the Han Dynasty, and placed the Xiongnu under the Wuyuan Fortress, that is, to place the Turks in Shuofang and Yunzhong in Henan.

The appointment of their original chiefs as local governors and county guards, and the appointment of Han officials to assist in the indoctrination, could not only fill the void of the lack of population in these places, but also show the court's sincere acceptance and lack of suspicion towards them.

However, Wen Yanbo's proposition was fiercely opposed by Wei Zheng, the secretary and supervisor, who believed that the Turks had been plagued since ancient times and were difficult to manage, and that if they were moved to the interior, they would be tantamount to a disease of the heart and would be left behind by raising animals.

Wen Yanbo insisted on his own opinion, advocating virtue and Huaizhi, he said to teach his etiquette, elect his chief, and send Huaide to live, what is the trouble?

The essence of the method of resettlement of the Turks proposed by Wen Yanbo is to respect the production methods, customs and habits of the Turkic people, and to give the Turkic people a certain degree of autonomy, which is obviously to adopt an enlightened policy of national assimilation on the basis of unity.

After nearly a month of intense discussions, Li Shimin finally adopted Wen Yanbo's suggestion, and with a slight change, he ordered hundreds of thousands of Turkic families to move into the Central Plains.

Among them, 30,000 moved to Chang'an, and the rest were scattered in the area from Youzhou to Lingzhou, and the head of the Turkic tribe was appointed as the governor or assassin of the history, commanding the original troops, and some Turkic nobles were selected to come to Beijing to serve as military positions.

Among them, there were more than 100 generals and lieutenant generals of the fifth rank and above, and the implementation of these measures had a good effect and profound impact on the ethnic minorities headed by the Turks at that time.

After dealing with this series of problems, Li Shimin was in a good mood, and the weather was not too hot, so he went to Yuhua Mountain to hunt, and when he returned, he passed by Changle Gate, remembered the eldest sister-in-law and brother-in-law who lived in it, and involuntarily grabbed the reins.

"What's wrong with Your Majesty?" Wei Chi Jingde, who was accompanying him, asked a little puzzled.

"Princess Xi and Princess Cao both live here, right?" Li Shimin ignored Wei Chi Jingde, but turned his head and asked a guard beside him.

"Yes." Konoe replied.

"You guys go back first, I'll go see my sister-in-law." Li Shimin waved his hand to the several generals accompanying him and asked them to go back first, while he turned over and dismounted and walked towards Changle Gate, with several guards following closely behind him.

Wei Chi Jingde and the others glanced at each other, and they were very smart and left quietly.

At this time, almost five years have passed since Xuanwumen, and in these five years, Li Shimin has not seen Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji's legacy once, probably because he feels shameless.

Now that the Turks are calm and all countries are coming, he will probably not have any more embarrassment when he sees his sister-in-law, brother-in-law and nieces again.

In short, this is all a private matter of the royal family, and it has nothing to do with them as courtiers.

It was very quiet inside the Changle Gate, and the guards at the gate were all taken aback when they suddenly saw the holy car, and bowed in unison.

Li Shimin waved his hand: "You don't have to be polite, and you don't need to go in to report, I don't have a big deal here, it's just to meet the old people." ”

After speaking, he walked in, Zheng and Yang lived in the southwest hall of Changle Gate, when Li Shimin came all the way, the palace maids and eunuchs who passed by were suddenly taken aback when they saw him, but just bowed down and saluted, but found that the emperor had gone away.

Li Shimin walked all the way, about five or six minutes, and finally came to the palace where Zheng lived, Zheng was a devout Buddhist, and when he came, she was chanting sutras in the house.

It was Miao'er who saw Li Shimin first, and Miao'er was also stunned when she suddenly saw Li Shimin, but she immediately woke up and hurriedly came over to salute: "Li Miao has seen Your Majesty, Your Majesty's Holy Ann." ”

Miao'er is seventeen years old, she is a big girl like flowers and bones, and the average girl of such a big age has already been married, but she has been widowed with her mother all these years, and her heart has been smoothed out, and she will no longer see the coquettishness of the past.

But seeing an ordinary green clothes, with a full head of hair draped over his shoulders, only a green handkerchief was tied on the top of his head, and the whole person looked refreshing, beautiful and quiet, but there was no trace of royal lady's breath.

"You, Miao Miao?" If it weren't for her self-registration, Li Shimin would almost not recognize her for a while.

Counting, he has not seen Miao Miao for five years, Miao Miao was still a thirteen-year-old innocent and delicate little girl, how could he not connect the young lady in front of him who was as quiet as a Taoist girl in the Taoist temple and her back then.

"Back to Your Majesty, it's Miao Miao." Miao Miao replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Get up, you, mother?" Li Shimin pressed down on his complicated emotions and stretched out his hand to help him.

"Yes, my mother should be worshipping the Buddha, is Your Majesty here to see my mother? If so, Miao Miao will go in and ask her to come out. Miao Miao responded, stood up, and replied.

"Well, I'm tired." Li Shimin nodded, Zheng is the eldest sister-in-law and a widow, so it is obviously inconvenient for him to enter the inner house directly.

Miao Miao turned around and left, and after about a cup of tea, Miao Miao helped Zheng out.

Zheng is three years younger than Li Jiancheng, and now she is thirty-eight, perhaps because she lives in a quiet place and has little to do with the outside world, her appearance has not changed much compared to five years ago.

The only difference from the past is that she can no longer see the nobility and lead of the princess, she and Miao Miao's clothes are almost the same, they are all wearing a simple cyan dress, full of green silk is tied behind her head, and there is no half hairpin ring.

Her face was not powdered, and her eyes were as calm as the water in an ancient well, and when no one stirred it, she couldn't see half of the waves.

Li Shimin looked at Zheng like this, and then remembered her performance in the two years when she first arrived here, and was quite in a trance for a while.

"The Li family's surviving Zheng family has seen Your Majesty." Zheng's gaze touched him, and then he lowered his gaze and saluted him calmly.

"Sister-in-law is exempt." Hearing her voice, Li Shimin came back to his senses from his trance and spoke.

"You call me sister-in-law, but do you think that after the victory of the Northern Expedition, you can already face me calmly, and face the brother and brother who died in your hands in the past?" Hearing this title, Zheng suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Li Shimin.
