said as if he was about to go on an expedition, Li Yong said with a smile.

"Look, we've talked so much about this, it's not certain that we won't be able to go on the expedition. Maybe you don't need me to go on the expedition at all, I'll accompany you in Chang'an. ”

Li Li said with a smile.

"That's for the best, of course."

This night, in order to forgive Changle's heart, Li Yong stayed in the upper room, and Li Lizhi hugged and slept together, and Princess Yuzhang, who had been sleeping with Changle recently, had to go to sleep in the guest room, she was really a little unaccustomed to this night, and she suddenly thought that some of her dresses, and even the underwear were still left in her sister's place, and I don't know if my sister put it away for her, and I don't know if my sister has changed the brocade quilt, when she thinks of this, she can't help but blush, this night Princess Yuzhang can be described as a heart fluctuation and sleepless night, For a while, I imagined that Li Yong suddenly took out her underwear from there, and for a while, I was worried that Li Yong would be in danger when he went on the expedition...... In fact, this night Li Xueyan, Zheng Liwan, Wu Cao and their daughters all slept unsteadily, because they were worried and tossed and turned and difficult to sleep, but Li Yong and Li Lizhi slept peacefully all night, although Li Lizhen was also very worried, but lying in Li Yong's arms felt at ease, so he slept peacefully, Li Yong, who slept peacefully all night, got up early in the morning, and after breakfast, he left the county mansion and went straight to the Shenji Battalion. As soon as Li Yong walked into the camp, he could feel the excited atmosphere, and Li Yong sat in the handsome position in the big tent of the Chinese army.

"Meet Grandpa!"

The generals said loudly, and Li Yong nodded.

"Okay, don't be polite, you all know it, right? The army was defeated in Wuhai, and Zhang Liang, the chief of the march, and Guo Xiaoke, the deputy commander, were also killed on the spot, which was the only shame of the founding of the country, and the sage Long Yan was furious, and wanted to recruit the army again, take revenge on the shame, and revive the glory of the Tang Dynasty. ”

When the generals heard this, they couldn't help but be excited, they were defeated by just Tubo, it was really unbearable, they had to fight back! must take revenge, last time their Shenji Battalion did not go out with the army because they were too tired to return to the DPRK just now, but this time their Shenji Battalion has already finished recuperating, of course they will go out with the army.

"Grandpa, when are we going to go on the expedition?"

Li Yuntian couldn't wait to ask, all the generals looked at Li Yong with burning eyes, their eyes were full of expectation, the last Eastern Crusade, their Shenji Battalion made great achievements, and the key was that there were almost no battle damages, which made them feel very proud, this expedition, they must once again play the majesty of the Shenji Battalion, in the future, their Shenji Battalion will be the first strong army in the Tang Dynasty, no, it is the strongest army in the world, but they don't know that the first strongest army in the world is actually Li Yong's Xishan Battalion, but this army can't be published, Li Yong shook his head slightly.

"Yesterday, the sage convened the important ministers to discuss in the Liangyi Palace, whether our Shenji Battalion will go with the army or not has not yet been decided, after all, Tuyuhun is not easy to walk, especially the artillery of our Shenji Battalion is relatively heavy, so the sage and many important ministers have scruples."

Li Yuntian and the others immediately became anxious when they heard this, since they heard about the defeat of the army that went out yesterday, they felt that the Shenji Battalion was about to go on the expedition, and their hopes were about to be disappointed?

"Grandpa, our Shenji Battalion also has light artillery! Light artillery is not too bulky and will not drag down the army. ”

"Yes, yes, it's really not good, we won't bring artillery, but our muskets can hit the Tubo people and abandon their armor."

Li Yong waved his hand and said.

"You are so active in wanting to go on the expedition, my father is very pleased, however, whether the Shenji Battalion will go out or not depends on the result of the discussion between the saint and the ministers, everyone wait patiently and be ready to go out at any time, but if the Shenji Battalion does not go out in the end, don't be disappointed, there will be more opportunities to fight in the future."

Li Yong knew that the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion would definitely think that they would definitely go on the expedition, so he deliberately came to appease everyone, lest everyone be full of thoughts about going out, but in the end they were too disappointed that they failed to go on the expedition, although the result was not decided, it was not that they could not go out, but everyone still inevitably felt lost in their hearts, and after appeasing everyone, Li Yong left the Shenji Battalion and entered the city quickly. Li Yong suddenly found that there were many people around the city gate, he couldn't help but feel a little strange, it's been this hour, the city gate has been open for a while, why are there so many people around the city gate and haven't been able to enter the city? Li Yong strangled his war horse, slowly came to the city gate, and saw a few people surrounded in the crowd at a glance, but what was so strange about them? There are not 10,000 people in Chang'an City, but also thousands, everyone should have been surprised for a long time, as for looking around these people? But soon Li Yong understood what was going on according to the discussions of the people around him, these people turned out to be Tubo, these Tubo people turned out to be the envoys of Tubo, no wonder these people would surround these people, and now the army has just been defeated by the Tubo people, and these Tubo envoys appeared in Chang'an, and it is inevitable that the people will think that they are here to show off their might, and it is strange that the people are not angry, after all, in the eyes of the people of the Tang Dynasty, Tubo is just a fluke to win a war, There is no qualification to come to Chang'an to show off his might, Li Yong also felt very surprised, the battle that happened in Tuyuhun had just been rushed back to Chang'an for 800 miles, how did this Tubo envoy come so quickly?

"We are Tibetan envoys, why don't you let us enter the city? Is this the hospitality of Datang? We have come all the way, are we going to turn us away? ”

The Tubo people protested in not fluent Chinese, the soldiers at the city gate felt very embarrassed, and now that the Tang Dynasty and Tubo had just had a war, they didn't know whether to let these Tubo envoys enter the city, so they could only report and wait for orders.

"Grandpa is here!"

"Meet the Duke of Rongfu!"

Whether it was the surrounding people or the soldiers at the city gate, they all saluted Li Yong respectfully.

"Why are you all outside?"

Li Yong raised his horsewhip and asked with a smile.

"These people said that the envoys of Tubo wanted to enter the city, and they didn't dare to be arbitrary, so they had already sent someone to report it."

The lieutenant hurriedly explained.

"It's just a few Tibetan envoys, and it's not the Tubo people who called, don't be nervous, but let the Tubo people think that our Tang Dynasty is really afraid of them Tubo, let them enter the city, let them go to the Sifang Pavilion!"

Li Yong commanded with a smile. The lieutenant hurriedly agreed.

"Yes, the county prince, the county prince has an order, let the Tubo people in! Get out of the way! ”

The captain commanded loudly, the soldiers over there all let go when they heard it, and the soldiers were very happy, although they were not under the jurisdiction of Li Yong, but since Li Yong had spoken, they had nothing to hesitate, although they did not dare to be specialized, but for the Rongfu County Prince, this was just a trivial matter, even if the above was blamed, there was also the Rongfu County Prince, and since it was Rongfu County's public mouth, who would blame it? I'm afraid that even the emperor will not be to blame? Hearing this, several Tibetan envoys hurriedly turned their heads to look at Li Yong and said with a look of surprise.

"It turned out to be the prince of Rongfu County? The princess asked us to say hello to the princess! ”

Li Yong said with a smile.

"Go back and ask Princess Zhenzhu for me."

Although a war has broken out between Tubo and Datang, and Datang has suffered a defeat, Li Yong did not blame Princess Zhenzhu for these, after all, these military events, Princess Zhenzhu can't stop it even if she is favored, Tubo envoys nodded again and again.

"We will definitely bring the words of the county prince, the county prince has not returned to the house yet, right? The princess let us bring some gifts, which we have delivered to the county mansion. ”

Li Yong was a little speechless when he heard this, and the Tibetan envoy said this in front of so many people, as if he had been bought by Tubo.

"Speaking of which, Princess Zhenzhu and I are also old friends, it's rare that she still remembers, thank you princess on my behalf, and when you return, my father will prepare a thank you gift to the princess!"

Li Yong said lightly, the people around them heard it but evoked some memories, they remembered the sassy and heroic appearance of the Tubo princess, at that time the Tubo princess left a good impression on the people of Chang'an, the original Tubo princess and Li Yong and Li Liqian's friendship is indeed not shallow, of course, these people did not feel that Li Yong was bought by Tubo, not to mention that Li Yong has always cared much about money, what did Tubo take to buy Li Yong? Money? I'm afraid that the entire Tubo family will go bankrupt and won't be able to impress Li Yong! Do you use beauty? Although the Tubo princess is heroic and beautiful, she is not as good as Li Liqian!

"The Battle of Wuhai has just ended, and our Tang Imperial Court has just received the news, why did you Tubo envoys arrive in Chang'an so quickly?"

Li Yong asked with some doubts, and after listening to Li Yong's question, the people around him suddenly discovered this problem, yes! It's impossible, isn't it? Could it be that these Tubo people have been hiding in the Tang Dynasty for a long time, and suddenly jumped out to disgust everyone at this time? The Tibetan envoy said respectfully.

"We came to congratulate the Tang Dynasty on its great victory in Liaodong and the destruction of Goguryeo in one fell swoop."

Congratulations to the Tang Dynasty on the destruction of Goguryeo? It's too late to congratulate, isn't it? Li Yong listened to it and pondered it in his heart for a while, and he roughly understood what was going on, Tubo took advantage of the Tang Dynasty's Eastern Crusade to suddenly attack Tuyuhun, that is, he felt that the Tang Dynasty would be mired in the quagmire of the Eastern Crusade and had no time to take care of it, but he never thought that the Tang Dynasty would destroy Goguryeo so quickly, so Tubo sent envoys to congratulate the Tang Dynasty, wanted to repair relations with the Tang Dynasty, and tried to prevent the Tang Dynasty from sending troops, but the envoys of Tubo had not yet come to Chang'an, and the Tang Dynasty had already sent troops, and there was no turning back from the bow, and this war was unavoidable. So they stopped for the time being, waiting for the outcome of this war, now that Tubo has won this war, they naturally don't want the Tang Dynasty to send troops again, they don't want to fight with the Tang Dynasty for the time being, but consolidate in Tuyuhun, which has been occupied, and then continue to seek the Western Regions, but even if Tubo's wishful thinking is loud again, what can it be? Just smash the wishful thinking and it's over, Li Yong smiled faintly.

"I see, the visitor is a guest, you go to the Sifang Pavilion, there will be people from the Ministry of Etiquette to receive you, however, I advise you to stay in the Sifang Pavilion honestly and don't run around, I Datang is full of martial virtues, be careful of being beaten to death by impulsive young people, but blame us Datang for not treating each other politely."

The Tibetan envoy raised his eyebrows and smiled when he heard this.

"Thank you for the kindness of the county prince, it's just that we Tubo people are not afraid of anyone, whether they are fighting or fighting."

Li Yong couldn't help laughing when he heard this, when Lu Dongzan came to Datang with the envoys, he was very honest, but now he just won the war by luck, and he actually floated, and his tone was so big.

"Before, my Datang only recruited some soldiers from Longyou, and it was because the generals who led the troops were too light on the enemy, and the real elite soldiers and fierce generals were all in Chang'an, I hope that when I arrive on the battlefield the next day, you Tubo people don't run too fast."

Li Yong said lightly, and the Tibetan envoy arched his hand.

"The county prince said seriously, I waited for this envoy to the Tang Dynasty to congratulate the Tang Dynasty on the destruction of Goguryeo, it was with sincerity, and it came for the peace of the two countries, there was no deep hatred between the two countries, and now we have won and lost each other between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty, which can be regarded as a tie, so why bother to start a war again? Otherwise, the war will continue, and how many sons will be killed and wounded? In the end, it is the people who suffer! ”

The Tibetan envoy said very sincerely, as if he was really thinking about the people of the two countries, but the people next to him were about to vomit when they heard it, what they said was better than what they sang, and there was no deep hatred, this hatred was great! I haven't suffered such a big loss yet! Li Yong said lightly.

"Well, you better wait to see the saint and say go!"

Li Eryi, who is already very tough, wants to be the first emperor of the ages, will he listen to you, the envoy of Tibet? Now Li Erman is thinking about how to get back to the field, if it weren't for the fact that your Tubo is located on the plateau, Li Er is now planning how to destroy your Tubo and still be peaceful? You slapped Li Eryi, and then accompanied by a smiling face to talk about peace, maybe it's still useful, you slapped Li Eryi, and you still want to talk about peace with a hippie smile? Li Yong shook his head, and didn't want to deal with these Tubo fools anymore, so he went straight to Chang'an, and came to the front of the yamen of the military department, Li Yong turned over and dismounted and went directly into the hall, only to see Li Jing and others were deducing around the sand table, Cheng bit Jin Zheng's spittle, and Xu Shiji, Wei Chigong, Li Xiaogong and others listened with disgust on the side.

"Where did you go? How did you come? ”

Cheng Yanjin saw Li Yong at a glance and asked loudly.

"I went to the Shenji Battalion, and a group of soldiers are jumping up and down to go on the expedition, I have to go and appease it."

Li Yong explained with a smile, and Wei Chigong immediately gave a thumbs up when he heard it.

"Yes, yes, they are all men with some blood, that's how they should be!"

Xu Shiji said with a smile.

"Which military camp is the same, they are all jumping up and down, and they are going to go out to fight the Tibetans!"
