When faced with the multiple-choice question of returning the throne to cultivating immortals, Li Shimin finally gave up.

There is no way, according to Li Anran, once he chooses the path of cultivating immortals, not only will the position of the emperor be passed on to others immediately, but as soon as he enters the immortal gate, he will no longer be the king of a country, but like other immortal cultivators, he will start as a disciple.

The only difference is that with Li Anran's introduction, Li Shimin does not have to undergo tests to get started like ordinary people, and he must sit up from the outer disciples, and then go through the inner disciples, elite disciples, and finally become a true disciple.

However, this advantage is not very obvious. Although you don't have to sit up from the outer disciples, at most you can only become an inner disciple in one fell swoop after you get started, and if you want to rise to the stage of a true disciple, you still need to work hard yourself, and at the same time, you have to depend on chance.

Faced with such a realistic statement, Li Shimin finally felt that he would just be humane. After all, although you can't see or touch it, as long as you are a good emperor, even if you can't cultivate the human emperor Dao Fruit, at least Datang is your own.

Once he gives up the throne, God knows if he can survive in the immortal gate. In case the opportunity is not good and the luck is insufficient, and even the identity of the inner disciple cannot be kept, then it will really outweigh the gains.

And with Li Anran, as long as he has a good relationship with the other party, I believe that this matter is not completely without a turnaround. Therefore, Li Shimin did not directly state his decision, but temporarily diverted the topic on the grounds that he still needed to think about it.

For Li Shimin, he wants to be the emperor and wants to cultivate immortals. Li Anran naturally saw it very clearly. However, I also know that this is just human nature. Looking at so many generations of kings and emperors in history, there are a few who don't think so.

Originally, Li Anran also wanted to take out the "Okay Song" sung by a lame Taoist priest in the first episode of "Dream of Red Mansions" and despise the other party. But considering that he is also a king of a country, he has to go down the stairs, and the words are swallowed when they reach his mouth.

"Real person, do you know why I asked you to come this time?" Li Shimin, who was entangled in his heart for the time being, changed his words and said.

"Holy. I really don't know what to do. "It's time to finally get in. Li Anran shook his head and replied.

"I'm going to use troops against the Turks!" Li Shimin, who put down the teacup in his hand, said very casually. The tone was as if he was not going to meet the Turkic soldiers, but to eat every day.

"Turkic?" As early as when he saw the sand table, Li Anran had basically determined that the other party's invitation to him was mostly related to the use of soldiers. Merely. I didn't know where this soldier would be used. It's not surprising that I'm here now.

After all, Liang Shi was destroyed before, Shuo Fang was taken by Datang, and the biggest loss was except for Liang Shidu, the messenger egg. It is none other than the Turkic Jieli Khan, a guy who always has the idea of the Tang Dynasty.

Who let this man on the surface ally with the Tang Dynasty at the same time, but also aid the rebel Liang Shidu. In Li Shimin's view, such behavior has touched his own low line, coupled with the relationship between the Turks and the Tang Dynasty over the years, it is just an opportunity to clean up.

It's just that, according to historical records, the Tang Dynasty officially used troops against the Turks, and even captured Jieli Khan at the very least, but it happened in the fourth year of Zhenguan, that is, in 630 AD, which is now almost two years in advance.

"It's the Turks, so Jieli Khan really thinks that his little actions don't know the way?" It is estimated that he thought of some news that was not very good, and Li Shimin's face was obviously not good-looking.

"Then I don't know why the Holy God called me over?" Hearing this, Li Anran also had some guesses about being summoned by the other party this time. I also regret a little bit about what I did with the army before, but unfortunately it is useless to regret it now.

"With the ability of a real person, you should know the truth that the soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first." Seeing that the words came to this, Li Shimin didn't talk about anything else, and said directly and honestly: "This time the use of troops against the Turks is not trivial, so I want to ask a real person to help me." ”

"Uh...... I don't know how the Holy Lord wants me to help? Li Anran, who originally thought that the other party wanted him to make a move like he did to Liang Shidu last time, only to find that the development of things did not seem to be what he looked like when he heard this, so he asked.

"I want to ask a real person to provide a batch of grain and grass that can be eaten by the army during the war, as for these grains and grasses, I will not ask for them in vain, and the price is easy to say." As the king of a country, Li Shimin is also decent when it comes to business.

"Grain and grass?" Seeing that the other party wanted to ask him for help, it turned out that it was just this matter, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said: "If it's just grain and grass, I naturally won't ignore it, but I don't know how much the Dao Saint needs?" ”

In fact, when Li Shimin made this request, he was somewhat unsettled. After all, the person in front of him is not a common man of the Tang Dynasty, let alone his own subordinates, and if he wants to use the emperor's order to make the other party do things, it is purely self-deprecating.

If it weren't for the fact that the two sides have always had commercial cooperation, and at the same time had other plans in mind, Li Shimin would not have made this request. Seeing that the other party quickly agreed, he naturally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said: "In terms of quantity, the more the merrier, but I also want to ask a real person to deliver it to my door." ”

"Home delivery? That's natural, which warehouse the goods need to be delivered to, the saint directly sends someone to lead the way. Li Anran, who didn't think too much about it for a while, agreed very smoothly.

"True person, I said that I want to ask you to deliver this grain and grass to the battlefield, not to the granary of Chang'an City." Li Shimin, who found that the other party seemed to have some misunderstandings, hurriedly made it clear.

"Sent to the battlefield?"

Hearing this, Li Anran didn't know that His Majesty, the Tang Emperor in front of him, was still playing his own leading role. Not to mention just delivering goods, it is not a matter at all for yourself who has the power of great shifting, but the meaning is extraordinary.

Just like Li Shimin's previous remark that "before the soldiers and horses move, the grain and grass go first", for an army and an army that is on the levy, the logistical grain and grass are the key to the rise and fall of a war or even a country in many cases.

If it is just to send grain and grass to the front line, it doesn't matter if Li Anran arrives. Although it is necessary to be busy, as long as there are enough benefits, there is nothing wrong with it. It's like a modern time and space online shopping free shipping, anyway, the postage has already earned enough.

But considering that Li Shimin is a very smart, skillful, and ambitious guy in history, Li Anran pondered for a while, shook his head and said: "Saint, if it is just to transport grain and grass, it is not a big problem. ”

"But as I've said before, you can't get too involved in the humanitarian context. I'm not afraid of the saint's jokes, before I was in Shuofang, I intervened too much because of carelessness, and as a result, I was counterattacked, and my foundation was almost destroyed. ”

"In this way, if the Holy Lord needs a batch of grain and grass, then I am naturally willing to provide it. As for the door-to-door delivery, I can only send it to the rear at most, and I don't care, can't manage, and don't dare to care about where these grains and grass will be sent in the future. ”

"It's just that I can supply another batch of manpower tricycles, and I believe that with this means of transportation, it will not be difficult to quickly deliver grain and grass to the fields. As for the payment, it is still the old rule to pay in gold or silver. ”

Faced with the fact that this refusal was not a refusal, and the promise was not a promised reply, Li Shimin did not mean to be angry at all, but said: "Since this is the case, according to what the real person said, the payment will naturally not let the real person suffer." It's just that there is one more thing I hope real people can help with. ”

"Saint, I have had a relationship with Datang since I fell into the mortal world from the upper realm, otherwise I wouldn't have done so many things that were beneficial to Datang. As long as it is within your ability, you will naturally do what you can, and you will have nothing to say. ”

Seeing that the other party agreed to his request, Li Anran naturally would not be stingy, but he also left a way back for himself in and out of his words, saving him any more big problems.

didn't think about it, but after listening to it, Li Shimin said: "Don't hide the real person, the Tang Dynasty is poor, ......" (to be continued......)
