Zhang Yang looked sideways and said, "I've never seen you so shy before." ”

Li Yue was so upset that she stomped her foot and closed the door again.

After dinner, the family played a game of throwing sandbags.

Chang'an City is quiet after curfew.

The moon hung in the night sky, and the night was deep.

Zhang Yang whispered, "Has Xiao Wu already slept?" ”

Li Yue got into the futon and nodded, "Well, I'm already asleep." ”

The room whispered and spoke, and after a period of tossing, Zhang Yang turned on the oil lamp again, Li Yue sat up with the futon and said softly: "I'll go wash it." ”

Watching his daughter-in-law walk into the bathroom, Zhang Yang was about to go in, but she pushed him out.

Now she still resists taking a bath together.

"It's too early this summer."

Her voices and water could be heard in the bathroom.

Zhang Yang wiped the sweat from his forehead and poured a few sips of cold water, "It's really unusual to have such a temperature in this season, it seems that we need to guard against insects in the fields." ”

"It was too early to hear from the women of the village that the frogs in the fields were crowing."

"The next time I go to the village, I'll go and see the grain in the fields myself."

"But the climate in the grassland is definitely good now."

I thought about the contracting business on the grassland, this is the first time I have tried to contract this year, and we will not know how much value it can generate until winter.

In the future, it will be expanded, and larger farms will be needed.

"Do you have a late-night snack?"

"Okay."

"What do you want to eat?"

"The scallion oil noodles that my husband made before are delicious."

Zhang Yang stood outside the door, and Li Yue was washing in the bathroom.

The couple whispered about life through the door.

In the quiet of the night, the voice is soft, but it can also be heard clearly.

After making a bowl of oily noodles, Li Yue also took a bath, her hair was still wet, and she was sitting in the moonlight and eating noodles in light clothes.

Zhang Yang rinsed it briefly, then sat down to eat the noodles.

The moonlight was bright, Li Yue's clothes were very thin, only a layer of silk could vaguely see her skin.

She took a deep breath of the night sky air and felt the coolness of the night breeze blowing on her body.

Zhang Yang mixed the noodles in the bowl again, and ate them in two or three bites, "Today I negotiated a cooperation with your father." ”

Ben just asked about the matter between his husband and his father, but since he said it, he was still willing to listen.

Putting the bowl on the table, Zhang Yang wiped his mouth, "I plan to make white sugar a valuable item like gold and sell it to the family." ”

"The ones that my husband made with brown sugar?"

"As long as there is enough brown sugar, I can have as much white sugar as I want."

As he was talking, Xiao Wu rubbed his eyes and walked out in a daze, "Teacher, why don't you sleep?" ”

Li Yue took Xiao Wu's hand, "The teacher will go to sleep immediately." ”

Xiao Wu saw the scallion oil noodles in the bowl, "Teacher, Xiao Wu is also hungry." ”

Zhang Yang cleared his throat, "There is still one in the pot, I'll go and serve another bowl." ”

It was sunny for several days in a row, the sky over Chang'an City was cloudy, and a month passed, and there were more and more battle reports from the border pass this month.

Niu Jinda's army wandered on the plateau for a month, during which more than 2,000 people were withdrawn.

A thousand people still stayed on the plateau with Niu Jinda, and the military newspaper sent said that they had adapted to the plateau and had also found Su Dingfang.

At this point, the plateau of Tibet is no longer a place where the soldiers and horses of the Central Plains Weifu cannot go.

When the cattle arrive and they come back, they can naturally share their experience with the DPRK and China, so that more soldiers and horses can adapt to the plateau.

Another half a month has passed, Zhang Yang is in the field to watch the state of the crops, this summer will come very early.

Li Yuan walked aside, "It seems that Erlang wants the old man to come to Lishan to recuperate." ”

Walking on the ridge, Zhang Yang nodded, "You should cultivate your body when you are old, and you will feel much better when you are with the children in the village." ”

Seeing that this kid was still staring at the wheat in the field, Li Yuan said again: "Are you worried about this year's harvest?" ”

Nodding, Zhang Yang looked at the sky again, "If the summer wind recedes early this year, there is a high probability of drought, and if the summer wind is too strong, it may also cause waterlogging." ”

Li Yuan nodded and said, "They said that you can predict the weather, but now when I hear it, I think your words are reasonable." ”

"You always joke, I can't predict the weather, it's just the experience of some old farmers, and they will have their own judgment on the weather."

The daughter-in-law is picking duck eggs with Xiao Wu, planning to take them home to make salted duck eggs to eat.

Towards May, there was sand and dust blowing up on Longxi Road, and according to people who came from Longxi Road, a huge wall of sand came from the sky, and the sand and dust covered the sky and the sun.

This summer came early and brought with it sand and dust.

Fortunately, Chang'an City was not greatly affected.

The military report from the border pass came again, Niu Jinda and Su Dingfang jointly broke the three-way soldiers and horses of Songtsen Gampo, and were encircling and suppressing the remnants of the army.

As soon as the news arrived, the entire Chang'an City shook.

This is also exciting news.

After three months of fighting, we finally waited for a good news in the true sense.

Li Shimin was not too happy about this, and was worried about whether he would be the same as before, and after a small victory, he would be counterattacked by Songtsen Gampo.

The fact is that even if Songtsen Gampo wants to counterattack, now most of his troops have been lost, and he is at the end of his crossbow.

Lu Dongzan walked briskly towards the Diplomatic Courtyard, and Xu Jingzong sat leisurely in the courtyard, eating cakes and drinking mutton soup.

Seeing people coming, Xu Jingzong also drank a sip of hot mutton soup, and sighed comfortably, "I said that he should put more mountain onions, and every time he puts such a little, the people in Chang'an City are really becoming more and more unkind." ”

Xu Jingzong said this, completely ignoring Lu Dongzan, who was annoyed.

"I want to see Zhang Yang!"

Xu Jingzong frowned and said, "Didn't the prime minister say before that he wasn't in a hurry?" ”

Lu Dongzan patted the case and said, "I want to see Zhang Yang." ”

Xu Jingzong picked up two or three pieces of mutton that fell on the table and ate them, and then wiped the table well.

"Did you hear me?" Lu Dongzan said angrily again.

Xu Jingzong said helplessly: "It's Zhang Shangshu who can't be seen so easily, because of the matter of the prime minister, our Zhang Shangshu was grounded." ”

"Isn't he only grounded for a month?"

"A month? To say that you, the prime minister, still don't understand the folk customs and customs of our Guanzhong. Xu Jingzong handed the empty bowl to the clerk on the side and asked him to return it to the vendor who sold mutton soup at the door.

After straightening his sleeves, Xu Jingzong looked at a large area on his sleeve that was wet with mutton soup, "It's already an official uniform, but now it's washed and won't dry tomorrow." ”

Xu Jingzong's expression was embarrassed, "Isn't this embarrassing for the prime minister?" ”

Lu Dongzan stood up again and saluted, "Please also ask Xu Shilang to arrange for me to meet Zhang Yang." ”

Now I finally know that I can speak well in a proper manner, Songtsen Gampo has gone to the general trend, as a Tibetan Zampu, after all, he underestimated the current Tang Dynasty.

The generals who fought in the troubled times are still there, and the Turks who died in Yinshan are afraid that their bones are not yet cold.

After all, Songtsen Gampo is too young and vigorous, and I don't know how hard Datang is.

Even if His Majesty now advocates lightly repaying the meager endowment and releasing the soldiers to farm, the strength of the Tang Dynasty is still there.

The ones left behind were all killed on the battlefield in the troubled times.

Songtsen Gampo has not experienced the turbulent times of the Central Plains, and as an opponent, he is inferior to the generals of the Central Plains in terms of both the art of war and strategy.

The strategists in His Majesty's hands are all old foxes who have been killed from a group of human spirits.

Songtsen Gampo can still be bouncing in Tibet, I should really thank those old foxes in the court and thank the Heavenly Khan for his kindness.

But if Li Shimin is a little more brutal, the eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Zhang Gongjin and others can peel and chop Songtsan Gampo and cook it.

It's just that those old foxes in the middle of the court didn't make a move.

Xu Jingzong shook his head and sighed, "How are you Zampu now?" You are in Chang'an City, I think that Tubo will send you a message, do you know where the Songtsen Gampo people are, yes or no? ”

Lu Dongzan bowed and said: "Zampu sent a message to the foreign minister to negotiate peace with the Tang Dynasty. ”

Xu Jingzong said again: "For the sake of your many years of entanglement with our Ministry of Rites, since Zhang Shangshu was still a literary essay, you have learned the means of our Shangshu, and it has been four years since you came here." ”

Lu Dongzan said in a low voice: "This is the fifth year. ”

Xu Jingzong sat down again, "I have been an opponent for five years, if I really want to be an opponent, I am about to become a friend, but Zhang Shangshu is still grounded now, His Majesty said that he was grounded for a month, and His Majesty did not open his mouth to lift the ban, Zhang Shangshu could not walk back to the court on his own initiative." ”

"Why?"

Sweat slid down Lu Dongzan's forehead, and a few more scribes entered the diplomatic courtyard, and three or two more clerks left.

"Why was Zhang Shangshu grounded?"

As soon as the words passed through his mind, Lu Dongzan replied: "Because of the impeachment of the officials of the DPRK and China." ”

Xu Jingzong asked again: "Why is it impeached?" ”

"Because ......"

Seeing his hesitant appearance, Xu Jingzong took over the words, "It's not because of the negotiation with you Tubo people, the last time it was not negotiated, and it broke up unhappily, there was impeachment in the court, and there was no concealment from the prime minister, in fact, there is also a tacit understanding between the monarch and the minister, as long as His Majesty does not speak, and Zhang Shangshu does not advocate returning to the court, then it is still in the ground." ”

"For the sake of your friendship with our Shangshu for so many years, the lower officials can help."

"Then thank you Xu Shilang."

How insistent and unyielding Lu Dongzan was in the previous negotiations, how humble he is now.

Xu Jingzong wrote down a piece of music and handed it to Lu Dongzan, "Please also ask the prime minister to write the above words in Tubo dialect, and the lower officials will hand them over to the court on their behalf." ”

Lu Dongzan looked at the content written on the chapter and was embarrassed.

"Illiterate?" Xu Jingzong smiled.

"Meet ......," Lu Dongzan said slowly.

"As long as you make it clear, the previous impeachment was a misunderstanding, and there is nothing wrong with our Shangshu's words and deeds in the negotiation with you Tubo, and we must also write Tubo's gratitude to the Ministry of Rites."

"Besides, the impeachment in the Ming Dynasty is all false, and it was planted by those officials, and I can ask the Ministry of Rites to do justice for Tubo."

Lu Dongzan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, closed his eyes as if he had swallowed a breath, "Only by doing this can Zhang Shangshu be lifted from the grounding?" ”

"Yes, yes." Xu Jingzong put the pen and ink in place, "Minister, please." ”

Lu Dongzan closed his eyes again, took a deep breath, slowly picked up the pen and began to write.

Moreover, Lu Dongzan wrote a recital and handed it to the DPRK, but before Li Shimin could react, Zhang Yang, who was building a new home in Lishan, heard Li Tai talk about it.

"His Royal Highness King Wei, don't be lazy, go and fill up the bricks and stones, and pull them over with a cart."

Li Tai worked hard when he heard this.

"Brother-in-law, that Tubo Lu Dongzan has finally bowed his head, and I think the grounding will be lifted soon."

Zhang Yang nodded, "I wish I had been grounded all the time." ”

Li Tai wiped his sweat, "This Lu Dongzan is really interesting, how unyielding he was before, and now he has to take the initiative to negotiate, and he wants the Ministry of Rites to seek justice for Tubo." ”

Sometimes to deal with a guy like Songtsen Gampo who feels good about himself, it is necessary to give him a slap from reality, and he will lower his head again.

Tubo and the Tang Dynasty fight?

You Tubo has more than 100,000 troops to die, and it is not bad to have a population of 200,000, but you still want to fight with the Tang Dynasty at this level.

It is also a shame that Tubo has a plateau as a barrier, and it is not as bad as Songtsen Gampo will be defeated.

Li Shimin swept away many competitors, and after taking Yinshan and subduing the Turks, he drew his sword and looked around at a loss, where to find an opponent.

Then a Tibetan was sent up and beaten.

It happened to give Li Shimin the prestige, and it was also the time to give this Tian Khan a chance to scatter his majesty to show the strength of the Tang Dynasty.

It can only be said that the timing of Songtsen Gampo's war was not good, and the way of starting the war was even worse.

After all, he lost to his youth.

"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law!" Li Tai called.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Yang took the trouble to continue to build bricks and stones on the wall.

"What's next?"

"What's the matter?"

Li Tai followed behind and kept talking, "Negotiation, how to negotiate next, whether to make Tubo pay a greater price." ”

Li Yue came over and said solemnly: "Qingque, you go to the village to catch two ducks, and we will roast the ducks at noon." ”

Li Tai nodded when he heard this, "This will be arranged." ”

After opening Li Tai's ears, it was finally a lot clearer.

The couple smiled tacitly and sat down to rest.

When the hottest time came at noon, Zhang Yang saw Li Yue's sweat falling from his cheeks and flowing down to his smooth neck.

Wet the clean cloth towel you had prepared earlier and hand it to her.

Li Yue took it and wiped his sweat, "This cloth towel was brought out from home, and my husband is reluctant to use it until now." ”

Wiping the sweat with his sleeve, Zhang Yang smiled, "I'll wipe it with my sleeve." ”

Li Yue wiped his sweat and handed over a peach, "I specially soaked it in ice water." ”

Eating cold peaches, and then blowing the mountain breeze is a lot cooler.

Xiao Wu rode the bear happily, chasing other small animals everywhere to play.

This bear has been able to carry Xiao Wu to run, from the time when it was adopted in the past, it was still a very small one, in the past three years, it has grown fast, and it can gain weight every year.

Let it run with Xiao Wu on it, and it will be regarded as losing weight.

Only when it takes Xiao Wu with it, it doesn't run too far, and always hangs around near its new home.

Li Tai wants to lose weight, and this bear also needs to lose weight.

If you continue to eat like this, a good beast will be wasted.

Li Tai hurriedly walked up with two slaughtered ducks, "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, I also brought a lot of pepper and fine salt." ”

It's also strange, Zhang Yang held his forehead in pain, why is this little fat man's words so dense recently.
