Jin Shengman picked up a gambling contract, such as a treasure, for Li Yong's calligraphy she is like thunder, today glanced at it, only feel proud, hearty, have a charm, not to talk about anything else, this word has been precious, of course, what makes Jin Shengman feel more pleased is the content of this word, if she loses, then she will give Li Yong a slave for a month, if Li Yong loses, then she will wash her horse for a month, after reading through it again, Jin Shengman is very gentle to fold the rice paper, Then carefully put it in the placket on his chest, seeing the smile on the corner of Jin Shengman's mouth, Li Yong was speechless, it was the first time he saw that he was so happy to be a slave and a maid, Li Yong couldn't help laughing.

"You should believe it now, right?"

When I met him on the street today, Jin Shengman was quite unkind to him, Jin Shengman couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard it, and hurriedly said goodbye.

"It's me who misunderstood the county prince, today I was rude, and I invite the county prince Haihan!"

Li Yong waved his hand.

"It's okay, who made me have a really good relationship with Yuangai Suwen! When he was in Chang'an, I invited him to drink a few times! ”

Jin Wenzhi hurriedly asked.

"The county prince has a noble status, he was just a small deputy envoy at that time, how could the county prince become friends with him?"

Li Yong explained with a smile.

"It's not that I can't talk about any friends or friends, but I admire him a lot, and I think Yuangai Suwen is a talented person."

The faces of the two of them turned green when they heard this, of course Yuangai Suwen is a talented person, didn't he see that they Silla was beaten and had no power to resist? No matter what, knowing that Li Yong supported the dispatch of troops, Jin Wenzhi and Jin Shengman breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, as if they had seen the dawn of victory, Jin Shengman asked with an expectant and nervous face.

"How likely does the county prince think it is that the emperor will send troops to the expedition?"

Li Yong said with a smile.

"You are bound to lose this bet!"

Jin Shengman and Jin Wenzhi were pleasantly surprised when they heard this, if they lose, wouldn't they just give Li Yong a month as a slave and a maid? It's better than being a slave to the country for a lifetime, Jin Wenzhi asked with the excitement in his heart.

"Is the county so confident that he can win the bet?"

Li Yong said with a smile.

"In my opinion, the sage probably wants to send troops, and of course, the resistance between the DPRK and China is not small!"

Hearing that the emperor wanted to send troops, Jin Shengman and Jin Wenzhi were even more excited and surprised, they still believed in Li Yong's words, because Li Yong was a believer of the Son of Heaven, and he must have a clear understanding of the emperor's thoughts, of course, they also understood that since the court quarreled into a pot of porridge, there must be many people who opposed it, and Jin Shengman was in good spirits.

"If the county prince wins the bet, I will definitely keep my promise and give the county prince a slave and maid for a month!"

In Jin Shengman's opinion, this is very attractive, but Li Yong doesn't care at all, Jin Wenzhi said respectfully.

"Thank you for your guidance today, and please accept these gifts, which is also a little bit of our heart!"

Li Yong shook his head slightly.

"You don't have to be like this, I won't accept this gift, your top priority is to convince the ministers of the DPRK and China to oppose the sending of troops."

While speaking, Li Yong pouted at the big box full of jewels.

"You still need this!"

No wonder Li Yong has insisted on not accepting it, it turned out that he wanted them to use these treasures to fight other ministers who opposed sending troops! They still have treasures, but who has too much treasure! There are more treasures, of course, you can deal with more ministers, for a while Jin Shengman's heart was full of emotion, today she saw Li Yong so rude questioning, I didn't expect Li Yong to be so good to them, from Goguryeo to Chang'an, she treated Li Yong as a traitor, and scolded Li Yong a lot, now thinking about it, she suddenly felt very ashamed, and her heart was full of apologies, Li Yong is a good person! is a good person with both ability and political integrity, she misunderstood people, Jin Shengman and Jin Wenzhi gave a deep salute, and said with a touched face.

"The Princess!"

Li Yong smiled and waved his hand.

"Most of the generals in the DPRK support sending troops, after all, the generals' exploits are all won immediately, and the generals in the DPRK are all uncomfortable in Chang'an, and they want to lead the troops to fight, so you don't need to fight these people, because they will also actively support the dispatch of troops if they don't need to fight!"

Jin Shengman and Jin Wenzhi listened very carefully, and Li Yong continued.

"So the object of your focus and persuasion is the civilian officials, most of the civil officials are against sending troops, but there are some civilian officials that you don't need to deal with, such as Wei Zheng, Ma Zhou, Chu Suiliang...... These are all upright ministers in the court, and if you do anything, it will only backfire, and some civil officials can give it a try......"

Jin Shengman and Jin Wenzhi couldn't help but light up when they listened, Silla was too far away from the Tang Dynasty, although they had also heard the names of some prominent ministers in the Tang Dynasty, but they had only heard of the reputation, and now they were completely blind, and now Li Yong is equivalent to pointing them out! After listening to Li Yong's words, Jin Shengman and Jin Wenzhi suddenly became enlightened, and they immediately understood what to do next, and Jin Shengman looked grateful.

"The county prince, the great grace is not grateful, if the Tang Dynasty sends troops to relieve the siege of Silla, I will definitely ask Sister Wang to cast a statue for the county prince, and Silla will always be grateful for the kindness of the county prince!"

Jin Wenzhi also bowed deeply to the end, with the same grateful.

"No, no, you're so polite, this is what I should do."

Li Yong hurriedly said, of course Jin Shengman is grateful to him now, and when Jin Shengman knows the truth in the future, he won't hate him to death?

"Time waits for no one, go get busy! Bring all the treasures in this chest! ”

Li Yong waved his hand, Jin Wenzhi and Jin Shengman left Lijiazhuang, and the entourage followed behind carrying the big box, leaving Jin Wenzhi and sighed.

"Rongfu County is really worthy of being a poet and immortal-like character, he is really bright and fair, and has both ability and political integrity!"

Jin Shengman also sighed.

"It's me who lives the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain!"

Jin Wenzhi said with a complicated gaze.

"I've wronged the princess!"

Aggrieved? The dignified princess is also the future queen, but she is a slave and a maid, of course, it is a grievance, but Jin Shengman thought about it and said calmly.

"I didn't scold him less along the way, and I also questioned him in the court, and questioned him on the street, but I didn't expect him to agree to send troops, and give us guidance, such a great favor, I gave him a slave and a maid for a month, but it can be regarded as a gratitude!"

Jin Wenzhi couldn't help but nod when he heard this, it's good if the princess can think about it, as long as Datang can send troops, everything is worth it, originally came to Datang for help, in fact, they didn't know the bottom in their hearts, but now they have a lot of confidence.

"Princess, without further ado, let's hurry up!"

Jin Wenzhi said excitedly. Li Yong entered the inner courtyard with his hands behind his back, and Li Li smiled brightly.

"I heard that the princess of Silla came to visit?"

"Yuangai Suwen instigated Gao Jianwu to send troops under my banner, how could the Silla people not know? He questioned me today when he was on the court, and of course he will come looking for me now! ”

Li Yong explained with a smile, and Li Li asked curiously.

"What did you say?"

Li Yong said with a smile.

"What else can be said? It was nothing more than wanting me to support the imperial court to send troops, and he also sent a large box of treasures. ”

"Got a big box of treasure?"

Li Lizhi couldn't help but feel funny when she heard it, send treasure? There is really no shortage of this at home, Li Yong nodded.

"Yes, it was selected from their palace, and it is estimated that the palace of Silla was also emptied for this mission."

Li Lizhi was still very indifferent when she heard this, but Cuimo next to her couldn't help but light up in her eyes, from the treasures in the palace, it must be amazing, right? Li Yong shrugged slightly.

"I'm not embarrassed to accept it, on the one hand, I'm really embarrassed, on the other hand, Silla is indeed a small country! It's really poor, so let's keep them to help others! It's also good to relieve your father of some trouble. ”

Li Li's eyes wandered, and she asked with a smile.

"If you don't accept those treasures, Princess Silla can rest assured?"

Li Yong said helplessly.

"Of course I don't worry, no matter what I say, they don't believe that I support sending troops, so they have to make a bet with me!"

Li Lizhi asked curiously.

"Gamble? What is the bet? ”

Li Yong shook the rice paper in his hand and smiled.

"Here!"

Li Li took it curiously and couldn't help but look at it.

"Brush a month horse? A month as a slave? How much did you gamble? ”

Chunlan and the others next to her opened their mouths slightly, dignified and dignified! O princess! Actually want to brush a horse for a month? To be a slave for a month? This is indeed a big bet, Li Yong said with a smile.

"They're afraid that the bet won't be big enough, and I won't lose anyway, so it doesn't matter!"

This is also true, Li Li said with a smile.

"Did Langjun really make Princess Silla a slave?"

"What can she do as a slave or a slave? It's just going to add to the chaos, right? Isn't the maid next to me serving well? Why let her be a slave? ”

Li Yong shrugged his shoulders slightly and smiled, it is really not good to let a princess be a slave and a maid, even if it is because of a bet, Chunlan and the others can't help but nod, let the Silla princess take care of Li Yong, they are still worried about taking care of it! Chang'an, the wind and clouds, there are many discussions, the concerts are like snowflakes poured into the palace, the little eunuchs walked into the Liangyi Hall with a thick concert, but Li Er didn't even look at it, Li Er was not interested in those concerts at all, because those concerts were just clichés, the reasons are those reasons, compared to these concertos, Li Er was still more interested in the map, and the news in the palace also spread out vaguely, the emperor didn't look at the pieces but looked at the map, just what does it mean? This shows that the emperor's intention is to send troops, and among those civil officials who oppose sending troops, not all of them are so firmly opposed to sending troops, hearing the news from the palace that the emperor is not looking at the chapter but looking at the map, he can't help but shake his mind, and the envoys of Silla are frequently active in Chang'an City according to Li Yong's instructions, so that the voice of support for sending troops is rising, and there are many discussions in Chang'an City, and some courtiers are discussing in groups, but Wei Zheng left Chang'an, took a carriage to Lijiazhuang, and heard that Wei Zheng was coming, Li Yong hurriedly came to the door of the house in three steps and two steps, at this time Wei Zheng came to the door of course because the gambling contract was lost, and the guilty of coming to the door to bear the thorn invited to come, seeing that Wei Zheng did not really carry the thorn strip, Li Yong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, if Wei Zheng came with the thorn on his back, it would be equivalent to roasting him on the fire! However, even so, Wei Zheng's personal visit to apologize is also big news, if it weren't for the fact that Chang'an is now in a uproar because of the dispatch of troops, this matter will definitely cause heated discussions in Chang'an.

"Li Yong, the old man has come to make amends!"

Wei Zheng said with a smile, and Li Yong smiled a little helplessly.

"What kind of gambling contract, it's just a joke, why is Uncle Wei so serious?"

Wei Zheng said with a smile.

"Right is right, wrong is wrong, the old man is really sorry."

Li Yong said with a smile.

"Actually, in that case, it's normal for everyone to be suspicious!"

Wei Zheng stared at Li Yong and asked.

"Didn't you already know about Goguryeo's transfer of troops to attack Silla?"

Li Yong groaned.

"I'm not sure, I'm just guessing, Uncle Wei, please come inside!"

Li Yong said with a smile, Wei Zheng strode into the mansion, and after serving tea, Wei Zheng asked straight to the point.

"Li Yong, what do you think about this matter?"

Wei Zheng looked at Li Yong with blazing eyes, as if he wanted to see Li Yong through, he felt that Li Yong's influence on the emperor should not be underestimated, so he wanted to know Li Yong's tendencies, when he was in the court, he noticed that Li Yong did not speak from beginning to end, and Li Yong groaned.

"In fact, I have carefully pondered the debate of my colleagues in the court, and what everyone said makes sense!"

Wei Zheng couldn't help frowning slightly when he heard this, what did Li Yong mean by this? What does it mean that everyone has a point? Could it be that Li Yong wants to make peace with the mud? But this thing is either left or right, even if you want to live with the mud! Or does Li Yong not want to get involved in this troubled water at all? But this matter of low-grade officials may be able to be alone, but how can Li Yong be alone? Wei Zheng groaned.

"Everyone has a point, but there must be a trade-off!"

Li Yong said with a smile.

"Time has passed, and now is no longer the time of Emperor Yang of Sui, so I have been thinking about a question, if the Tang Dynasty sends troops, how many troops should be sent, and what are the odds? There are reasons for sending troops, and there are reasons for not sending troops, and there are no right or wrong reasons for these reasons, they all make sense, how to weigh them? There is a good saying, once I was bitten by a snake for ten years, I was afraid of the well rope, and now everyone is such a mentality, so I think the most important thing for everyone now is to calm down and think about it, with the current strength of our Datang, if you send troops, what are the odds of victory? Then decide whether to send troops or not, what does Uncle Wei think? ”

Wei Zheng's face became solemn when he heard this, although Li Yong didn't say it explicitly, but he also realized that Li Yong was still inclined to send troops, but he was really not good at refutating, because Li Yong did not explicitly say that he wanted to send troops, and he also had to admit that what Li Yong said did make sense, Wei Zheng asked.

"Then in your opinion, do you think that if the Tang Dynasty uses troops against Goguryeo, what are the odds of victory?"
