When Niu Jinda came in, Wu An saluted and said, "Your Highness, Weichen has retired first." ”

Li Chengqian nodded and said, "You go and get busy with you first, and give this king an answer as soon as possible." ”

Wu An nodded, and immediately turned to leave.

After he left, Li Chengqian got up and said with a smile: "Uncle Niu, come, sit." ”

For Niu Jinda, Li Chengqian is still very polite.

This guy is currently the only representative of the Tang military in the Ming Dynasty.

And Li Chengqian is about to offend the Tang military, so naturally he has to do something to redeem it.

In the future, he will return to Datang to inherit Dabao, and he will also need the support of the military.

Therefore, Li Chengqian's politeness to Niu Jinda was purposeful.

Seeing this, Niu Jinda was a little flattered, and immediately said, "Your Highness is polite." ”

Li Chengqian smiled: "Sit." Call Uncle Niu over today, and the little nephew also has something to discuss with Uncle Niu. ”

"If Your Highness has any orders, just explain." Niu Jinda immediately got up and said, "Weichen will do his best to complete it." ”

"It's just a small thing." Li Chengqian said, "The little nephew just wants Uncle Niu to write a letter to Uncle Cheng and them." ”

"Write a letter to Cheng Yanjin and them?" Niu Jinda was obviously stunned for a moment, but it was only for a moment before he reacted.

If Li Chengqian wants to sell the ordnance to Xue Yantuo, he will inevitably have a dislike with the military of the Tang Dynasty, and the purpose of writing a letter to Cheng Yanjin at this time is naturally self-evident.

Moreover, Li Chengqian asked him to write this letter, and the meaning was obvious.

After all, anyone can write a letter, whether it is Li Chengqian or Cheng Chumo, who can't write a letter to Cheng Yanjin, the reason why he was chosen is nothing more than that he is a person from the Tang Dynasty military.

He wrote this letter, which was naturally more convincing.

"Your Highness thinks how Wei Chen writes this letter?" Niu Jinda asked.

Li Chengqian said: "There are no requirements for the specific content, but there is one thing that must be said. ”

"Please also ask Your Highness to make it clear."

"Explain the situation." Li Chengqian said, "It is important to make the actual situation of the Ming Dynasty clear, it's not that I, the Ming Dynasty, must sell the ordnance to Xue Yantuo, it's really that the Ming Dynasty is short of materials now, understand?" ”

Niu Jinda nodded, isn't it just a miserable sale?

He understands that.

But he couldn't say whether the letter had any effect or not.

After all, the Ming Dynasty sold the ordnance to Xue Yantuo, and it must be those soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who suffered.

Even if he explained the situation, when the Tang soldiers suffered huge casualties, they would inevitably put this account on Li Chengqian's head.

It's a given.

How can people's emotions be understood because you are not difficult?

In this world, there has never been any real empathy, because your difficulties, that's just your difficulties, what does it have to do with others?

Because of your difficulties, you killed my brother, and this knot is not so easy to untie.

Of course, this is also the only thing Li Chengqian can do, he must have this attitude, and in the future, he can find an opportunity to completely untie this knot.

He wants to go back to Chang'an, so there are some things that must be done in advance.

Niu Jinda nodded, he had actually been prepared for this matter a long time ago.

And Li Chengqian didn't say much about this matter, and there are some things that don't need to be said so clearly.

"This matter will trouble Uncle Niu." Li Chengqian said with a smile, "By the way, this time I called Uncle Niu, and there is one more thing that may trouble Uncle Niu." ”

"Anything else?" Niu Jinda was a little puzzled, and immediately asked, "I don't know if His Highness has anything else to explain?" ”

"Uncle Niu should also know." Li Chengqian said, "Now, Ashina Ni led the entire Western Turks to submit to my Ming court, although it is a good thing, but my Uncle Niu should also know the situation of the Ming Dynasty, and it is not too much to say that he is too busy to take care of himself."

In this way, the Western Turks have become a burden to my Ming Dynasty.

But if you don't care about it, you can't do it.

But if you care, I really can't spare people now. ”

Speaking of this, Li Chengqian sighed, "Hey, it's not that you can't pull out manpower, it's really not that you can't have the right manpower."

Although Pu Shangshu, Yi Shangshu and others barely have the ability to take charge on their own, it is indeed not enough for them to govern one side.

As for the eldest grandson rushing them. Speaking of this, Li Chengqian shook his head, "They are still too young, not good, or not enough, they still have to go through the experience." ”

Niu Jinda heard Li Chengqian say this, and instantly understood.

Li Chengqian wants to take over the Western Turks by himself!

It's a tough nut to crack.

In any case, the Western Turks are the territory of Ashina Ni, although Ashina Ni is nominally attached to the Ming Dynasty, but if the Ming Dynasty really wants to send officials to govern, he will not refuse, but whether he will cooperate or not, then two words......

"Your Highness, this ......" Niu Jinda hesitated a little.

The ruling side, especially the Western Turks, was still very challenging for him.

Therefore, he had the heart to refuse.

It's not that he doesn't want to, it's that he's not sure.

After all, this is not his forte, you let him lead the troops to fight, he will not be cowardly, but he is indeed a little powerless to play with these politics.

"Uncle Niu, you can't refuse your little nephew about this." Li Chengqian immediately took Niu Jinda's hand and said, "Now there is indeed no suitable candidate in the hands of the little nephew, if it weren't for this, the little nephew would not trouble Uncle Niu."

That's what the little nephew thought.

Since Ashina Ni has attached himself to my Ming Dynasty, then there is nothing wrong with this king sending an official to preside over the ruling party, right?

Otherwise, what kind of family is this?

Of course, if Ashina refuses, it means that they are not sincerely attached, and this Western Turk doesn't want it!

Wait until my Ming court becomes stronger and stronger, and then send Uncle Niu to expand the territory for my Ming Dynasty.

But if he agrees, then Uncle Niu must take office in person.

That's what the little nephew thought. ”

After thinking about it for a while, Li Chengqian said, "If Ashina agrees, then the king will appoint Uncle Niu as the protector of the Western Regions, and be in charge of all military and political affairs in the Western Regions." ”

When he finished speaking, everyone was shocked.

Good fellow, in charge of all military and political affairs, this right is great.

But soon everyone reacted.

Li Chengqian said so, but on the issue, will Ashina Ni cooperate?

You say that you are in charge of all military and political affairs, and you are in charge of all military and political affairs?

Do you think Ashina mud is a dead person?

"Your Highness, the old minister ......" Niu Jinda was still a little frightened, of course, it would be false to say that he was not impressed.

As for the right given by Li Chengqian, it is unthinkable in Datang.

It is no exaggeration to say that if he can really manage all the military and political affairs of the Western Turks, then he will have enough family foundation for the rebellion.

He didn't dare to ask for this right, and he didn't want it!

"Uncle Niu, I really have to trouble you about this." Li Chengqian knew what he thought, and immediately patted Niu Jinda who was sitting on the chair, and said with a smile, "You also know that there is really no one in the Ming Dynasty who is strong enough to pick up the beams.

If you really want to say that there is, the Qibi Shangshu is one, but the Qibi Shangshu is really not suitable.

If Uncle Niu doesn't help the little nephew, it will be really difficult for the little nephew. ”

How could Li Chengqian let Niu Jinda go.

It's not that he can't find someone to go to in this matter, but only Niu Jinda is the most suitable.

Niu Jinda shook his head, he was really not good at picking up stubble.

But Li Chengqian has said everything, and he really can't refuse anymore.

After hesitating for a long time, Niu Jinda got up and said, "That old minister must do his best to govern the Western Turks for His Highness." ”

After Niu Jinda finished speaking, Li Chengqian smiled, and immediately nodded: "When encountering this kind of thing, Uncle Niu is still reliable, although my Ming Dynasty has many talents, there are indeed few who are as old and strong as Uncle Niu." ”

Niu Jinda smiled and said nothing, he really didn't want to take this hot potato, but Li Chengqian had to throw it into his hand, and he didn't have any way at all, immediately, he smiled bitterly and said: "That Weichen will be the protector of the Western Regions at that time, what does His Highness have to explain?"

Speaking of which, this Western Turk is not easy to govern, and His Highness has clear political opinions. ”

He didn't doubt that Ashina would refuse at all, and there was nothing to doubt about this.

Li Chengqian shook his head and said: "No, the specific political proposition, this king really does not have any requirements, after Uncle Niu takes office at that time, he can start with the people's livelihood." ”

"People's livelihood?" Niu Jinda was stunned for a moment, grasping the people's livelihood, he really didn't expect it.

He thought that Li Chengqian's purpose was to focus on the military, but he didn't expect Li Chengqian to let him focus on the people's livelihood, which he really didn't expect.

"Yes." Li Chengqian nodded and said, "It's the people's livelihood."

At present, what we can grasp is actually only people's livelihood, and the rest must be done step by step. ”

He really didn't say anything wrong, he wanted to grasp the military and politics, hehe, Ashina mud can agree to the ghost.

Of course, if Niu Jinda is asked to go to fight with Ashina, it may be possible to really grab a lost military and political power.

But for Li Chengqian, this is really not the most important thing.

The reason why he gave Niu Jinda military and political power was to paralyze Ashina Ni, because he really didn't want to compete with Ashina Ni for military and political power in a short period of time.

Instead of wanting military and political power, it is better to start with the people's livelihood.

As a descendant, especially a posterity who has read so many books, he naturally knows who is the most stable part of the power structure.

Whoever controls the people, who can hold the power!

Without the people, the power in your hands, hehe, the eggs are useless!

"The old minister understands." Niu Jinda nodded.

At this time, even if he didn't understand, he could only think about it slowly after he went back, and he wouldn't tell Li Chengqian.

"In other aspects, the little nephew has no special requirements." Li Chengqian said with a smile, "Uncle Niu just let go of his hands and feet, no matter what the result is, the little nephew will definitely support Uncle Niu!" ”

Niu Jinda smiled bitterly in his heart.

Let go of your hands and feet?

It's easy to say, it's no wonder that Ashina doesn't fight with him!

He is at a loss now, he really doesn't know, he really went to the Western Turks, how to govern, at this time, he has already thought about it, and when he goes back, he will learn from the old brothers in the past.

Otherwise, he was really afraid of making jokes.

"Does Your Highness have any other explanations?" Niu Jinda asked.

Li Chengqian smiled: "It's gone, it's gone." Just these two things, they are already very troublesome Uncle Niu, where do you dare to trouble Uncle Niu again. ”

"Then if His Royal Highness is fine, then the old minister will go back and think about it." Niu Jinda immediately got up and said goodbye, today is a hot potato, he has to go back and add it up.

Seeing Li Chengqian nodded, Niu Jinda also bowed and left.

After Niu Jinda left, Gao Chunxing asked, "Your Highness, the Western Regions Metropolitan Protector is gone?" ”

"What do you mean that's going to go?" Li Chengqian was stunned for a moment, and immediately said, "You just had a problem with your eyes?" Didn't you see that this king tried his best to let Niu Jinda take this errand? ”

"Ah......" He saw it, but he didn't fully see it, and immediately said, "Isn't this cow Jinda deliberate? ”

"You know what a ......fart," Li Chengqian said angrily, "If you can, do you think Niu Jinda will take this hot potato?"

What do you think this king is playing with him?

Jokes, people really don't want to. ”

Gao Chunxing and several people were stunned.

Most of the Western Regions are protected, even if it is placed in the Tang Dynasty, it is definitely a fragrant bait, how can Niu Jinda not want it?

"This king is right, now in the entire Ming Dynasty, the most suitable candidate is actually only him." Li Chengqian shook his head, these are his Ming reserve talents, and when it should be cultivated, they still have to be cultivated.

When the eldest grandson Chong heard this, he immediately asked curiously, "Why is this?" It stands to reason that the book must be suitable? ”

"He can't." Wei Chi Baolin shook his head and said, "He was originally the Khan of the Khambi Department, if he is allowed to take charge of the Western Turks, if he really controls the military and political power of the Western Turks in the future, it is really possible that something unspeakable will happen."

After all, even if he didn't want to do anything, his clansmen from the Qibi tribe didn't necessarily want to.

If he really wants to make the power of the Khambi Department swell to a certain extent, many things are no longer for him to decide. ”

When Li Chengqian heard Wei Chi Baolin say this, he immediately looked at him with some surprise, but quickly nodded and said, "Baolin is right, of course, the main reason is not this. ”

Li Chengqian was not too surprised by Yu Chi Baolin's performance, after all, he was the eldest son of Yu Chi Jingde, and it was really not worth being surprised to have this level.

After all, there is a family history.

As for Qi Bi He Li, he really doesn't doubt that guy has a history book to blame!

"What's not the reason?" Yu Chi Baolin was also a little surprised.

Li Chengqian smiled and said, "You guys, you're still too young, think about it again, think about who Niu Jinda is?" ”

"Isn't he my Da Ming?" Yu Chi Baolin subconsciously said a word.

After he finished speaking, everyone was stunned.

No, since Li Chengqian said so, it is absolutely wrong.

"Your Highness, should Niu Jinda be sent by His Majesty to be my Da Ming ......" Changsun Chong was stunned, he really didn't dare to say those two words.

Li Chengqian smiled: "You think, that's Niu Jinda, not a cat or a dog, if you don't have that person's consent, do you think he can come?"

And ......"
