Chapter 357: The Protector's Mansion's Decision
In the main hall of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, there were two ashes altars on the desk in front of the screen in the center of the steps, but Fumeng Lingcha knelt in front of the desk on the other side.
Sitting on the left and right are Gao Xianzhi, Cheng Qianli, Li Siye and Ma Phosphorus. Li Siye's injury was just right, and his sitting posture was more casual, and Yanqi Zhen made Ma Fu happen to sit opposite him.
Fu Meng Lingcha looked at the air below with a serious expression, and said: "I wanted to be a strong soldier and hoard money and food to attack Xiao Bolu again, but I didn't expect that the Tuqi Shi Mohe Dagan would come and cut in the queue again. He sent troops to provoke our Tang army and rob and kill the Khan, so we could only temporarily stop the planning of the expedition to Xiao Bolu and free up our hands to clean him up first. ”
Gao Xianzhi followed the fork hand and said: "At present, it can only be like this, only by pacifying the north of the Tianshan Mountains, can we rest assured that we will go south to the Green Ridge, but now the money and grain in the treasury of the Anxi Protectorate are not enough to support our Anxi army to carry out an expedition, and we need to wait until next year."
"It's okay, you can wait!" Fu Meng Lingcha slapped his palm heavily on the desk: "He Mo is in the Broken Leaf River, he can't run away, I will report to the court later, and ask the sage to allocate money, food and soldiers!" The rent, land transfer and commercial tax collected by the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate are directly included in the treasury for accounting!"
This irascible man suddenly stood up from the front of the case and said loudly: "The four towns of Anxi are only preparing for one thing from today, that is, to level the Tuqi Shi and kill Mohe Dagan!"
Everyone also stood up from the front of the case, crossed their hands and said: "I am willing to work together with Zhongcheng to punish Mohe Dagan!"
The soldiers of the Imperial Protectorate came up with wine jars and poured a bowl of wine from the wine cup on each general's case.
"There is one more thing," Li Siye said in a flat tone with his hands crossed below: "That is the hereditary succession of the Khan of the past Khan, and this should be mentioned to the imperial court."
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly fell silent, everyone looked at Li Siye with strange expressions, Cheng Qianli pressed his elbow on the desk and asked him: "Did General Li burn out his brain, Ash Naxin is the last lone seedling of Ashina Buzhen, with no heirs or brothers, where did the hereditary talk come from?"
Li Siye shook his head and said: "Let's not talk about the question of my brain, I can be sure that there is an heir to the throne of the Khan of the past Khan."
Fu Meng Lingcha raised his head and thought about it, his expression revealed a hint of abruptness, and suddenly asked Li Siye: "This child is still alive?" His life is really hard. ”
Li Siye nodded and said, "Only those who have a hard life are qualified to become khans."
Gao Xianzhi stretched out his hand and stroked his beard lightly, and also nodded and said, "That kid has a resolute personality, has not lost his blood, and can indeed be a khan."
Cheng Qianli looked left and right ignorantly, not pretending to be confused, but he didn't know who they were talking about.
Ma Fusheng, who was sitting at the bottom, objected: "Ashina Xin's genealogy is in Zongzheng Temple, and the genealogy also proves that he has no heirs, can we say that he is the son of the Khan?" Besides, Shi Xin is less than thirty years old, how can he have such a big heir. ”
"It's okay to say that he is the son of the old Khan Huaidao." Li Siye added.
Fu Meng Lingcha nodded and said: "This is a problem, as long as Your Majesty can agree, this matter is not complicated, I will give a table to my subordinates to state the pros and cons." ”
Li Siye was quite surprised, Fu Meng did not hesitate to oppose this matter, and he wanted to promote it. Although as an overall consideration of the envoy of the Anxi Jiedu, having a surname like Ashina to adjust the nomadic tribes north of the Tianshan Mountains must have more advantages than disadvantages, but now that Fu Meng Lingcha can make such a happy decision, he has obviously considered this matter.
He is quite pleased, and he can have such a tacit understanding with his superiors in one matter, which can be regarded as a rare meeting in ten years.
"It's just that the most important thing is his own choice, he should tell him about this matter in advance, and let him be mentally prepared."
Li Siye took the initiative to stand up, crossed his hands and said: "Anyway, I have a lot of inconveniences in my body in the past two days, and I can't do errands, so I can only do things that move my mouth, and I will tell him." ”
"That's fine." Fu Meng Lingcha put his hands in his sleeves, arched towards everyone, and said: "After you go down, you will make your own preparations, and it is urgent to pacify the assault and cavalry, and it is imperative to go on an expedition to Xiao Bolu. ”
"Whoa!"
……
Li Siye walked out of the hall of the Duhu Mansion, Gao Xianzhi walked up to him with a little enthusiasm, patted him on the shoulder and said, "I was quite worried about you in a coma with a high fever in the past two days, but now I am much more relieved to see that you are safe and sound." ”
Heiye replied politely: "Thank you Gao Du for protecting your arms." ”
Gao Xianzhi is now a soldier and horse envoy of the four towns, with thirty retinues around him, all of them brightly dressed and cloaked in crimson. The two of them walked all the way out of the Metropolitan Protectorate, and these entourages also stood in two columns and followed behind, reaching out and pressing the knife on their waists, looking quite majestic.
Li Siye felt a sense of grandeur, although he was not domineering, but he was too high-profile.
"At the beginning of the dispute between the black and yellow surnames, when Gai Jiayun served as the envoy of the Xijie degree, Gao knew that the method of suppressing the black surname was absolutely undesirable. It's just that a certain person at that time was soft-spoken, and he was in Khotan, so he could only sigh with hope. If time could go back, and then it would be up to me to decide, it would be a different story. ”
Li Siye was very interested in his inference of this kind of afterthought, and asked back with a smile: "If you were the envoy of the Moxi Festival at that time, what would you do?" ”
"Ahem," Gao Xianzhi pinched his nose and said, "I don't dare to think about this, but I can still deduce that I should reconcile in the middle, divide and rule the two surnames of Tuqi Shi, Hei and Huang, and live in Talas and Broken Leaves respectively, and use their contradictions to ensure the rule of my Anxi Protectorate in Broken Leaf River." ”
"And like now, after suppressing the black surname, the Khan surnamed Huang began to be ambitious and disobedient to the teaching, and when we attacked the broken leaf and killed Mo He, do we want to turn around and help the black surnamed Tuhuo Immortal Khan, in case the black surname Khan also has ambitions in the future? Isn't that a loop? ”
Li Siye secretly thought, Gao Xianzhi is very powerful, even if it is just an afterthought, it also touches the root of the problem.
He thought about it carefully, and suddenly asked: "As Gao Du Hu said, if the Tuqi Shi is divided into two khans, and the two are fighting endlessly, can the Anxi Du Protectorate profit from it?" To the north of the Tianshan Mountains, although the east and west of the Broken Leaf River are the territory of the Tuqishi tribe, they are also under the rule of the Tang Dynasty, right? The fight between the two should also belong to internal friction, right? If the two fighting families were in a weak position, would they be resentful for generations and blame the cause of their struggle on the head of our Anzai Protectorate? Wouldn't it be more difficult to solve the situation if they were to fight each other and bring in external forces as reinforcements, such as the Great Eclipse? ”
Gao Xianzhi was stunned for a moment, looked up at Li Siye for three seconds, tapped his head with his thumb and said, "You wait, I'll think about it again." ”
Li Siye felt a little proud in his heart, he didn't have other skills, he still had the ability to be a troll, but this is not a troll, but it is the primary skill of a keyboard warrior - raising the bar.
At this time, an abrupt voice sounded unconsciously next to him:
"The dispute between the black and yellow surnames is just caused by the imbalance of power, in the past, when Ashina Xiangong was in charge of the Western Regions, he appointed himself to rise and fall in the past, and balanced the forces of the northern and southern ethnic groups in the Tianshan Mountains. If it weren't for the strong rise of Sulu, today's Moxi would have been a different scene. Therefore, according to my opinion, the so-called Turgish should be divided into ten surnames and five compartments again, and the ten surnamed khans should be sent by the imperial court to take charge, so that those with high positions have no real power, and those with real power are humble. ”
This was not what Gao Xianzhi said, the two of them turned their heads together, but they saw a very ugly guy squatting under the wall, and saluted them with crossed hands: "Just a little humble opinion, it made the two of them laugh." ”
Li Siye just wanted to ask this person's name, but saw Gao Xianzhi frowning and said: "Why are you again, since you are a small servant in the Zhongcheng family, you should keep to yourself, and you have been rejected twice to submit a worship post to me, don't you know what the reason is?" Always cheeky to come to me, you and I are embarrassed. ”
