In the Taiji Palace, Li Zhigao sat on the imperial couch.

The ministers all bowed their heads solemnly, and no one dared to look up at the emperor's indifferent face to the extreme.

The eyes of the Nine Heavens fell on Zabala, and the emperor spoke extremely coldly: "What is the envoy talking about the life of the East Palace last night, can you tell me more clearly?" ”

Zabala pursed his lips and chuckled, and said lightly: "What else can it be, the fire in the East Palace last night, everyone saw it, why did Your Majesty cover your ears and steal the bell." ”

"Oh?" Li Zhi looked sideways to the side and said in a low voice: "Cheng Wuting, the commander of the forbidden army." ”

"The minister is here." Cheng Wuting immediately stepped forward and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the East Palace was in the courtyard last night, burning a bonfire, and the bonfire rose to the sky, but it did not hurt the living souls, as for the unjust soul, someone tried to storm the East Palace last night, but all the ministers were killed, none of them were leaked, and none of them survived." ”

"Hmm!" Li Zhi nodded lightly, and finally looked at Zabala and said, "State Envoy, this is what you said about the unjust soul, how can I seem to have a way to die?" ”

Zabala's entire face twitched uncontrollably, and her eyes were extremely distorted.

He was pitted.

Before, the man clearly told him that as long as there was a fire in the East Palace last night, then after the fire burned, more than a dozen corpses would be found in the East Palace.

And all of them are palace people who died this year.

As long as it is exposed in the court, it can immediately have an extremely bad impact on the crown prince, the emperor, and even the entire Tang Dynasty.

In this way, Tibet will be able to gain time and recuperate as soon as possible.

But now, there were no corpses at all, and all the dead were assassins.

Now it was as if the Assassins had been sent by his Zabala.

Li Zhi leaned forward slightly, looked at Zabala with a sneer, and said, "Since there is a gold mine in Subi, then it's very good, King Nanchang!" ”

"The minister is here!" Li Xuan immediately stood up.

"Wang Xiaojie!"

"The minister is here!" Wang Xiaojie immediately stood up.

"You two, find all the gold mines in Subi for me this year, and then occupy all of them for me, and when the New Year Dynasty is in the first day of the next year, cast a golden Buddha ten times the size and send it to Chang'an." Li Zhi's cold voice kept echoing throughout the Taiji Hall.

Li Xuan and Wang Xiaojie did not hesitate at all, and immediately bowed their hands and said, "The ministers are in order." ”

Li Zhi waved his hand, and Li Xuan and Wang Xiaojie retreated into the train at the same time.

……

Holding the ivory in his hand, Li Xuan stood up straight, and his cold gaze passed by Pei Yan's body.

Pei Yan stood there motionless.

Today's events, if they follow the original development, the East Palace caught fire, and more than a dozen corpses were found under the ashes.

The Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and Yushitai intervened in the investigation to find out the identities of these corpses, and then implicated the fact that the prince was not the son of the Empress Wu.

However, after Li Xuan and Di Renjie sent the guessed possible secret fold to the East Palace and the Daming Palace, the emperor immediately took action.

It was true that there was a fire in the East Palace last night, but all of it was a fire that had been put in advance.

It is true that people died, but all of them were unlucky people who jumped into the trap of the forbidden army.

There is also today's matter, the inspector of the imperial history Zhou Wen did not come at all, and the group of Guozijian were also as quiet as quails.

In the end, what was left was Pei Yan, who should cooperate with the shot, but Pei Yan was like a turtle with a shrunken head.

All this was the emperor's means.

As soon as you notice something unusual, you will immediately use a thunderbolt.

Although there is a martyrdom from the envoy of Tubo in today's court, he is the only one.

And he was also taught a hard lesson by Li Zhi.

……

"State Envoy." Li Zhi spoke again, and his eyes fell on the envoys of Turkic, Dashi, Tianzhu, Khotan, Qiuci and other countries in the main hall, and many envoys bowed down at the same time.

Li Zhi looked at Zabala again, and said in a calm voice: "In the past two years, in the battle of Tubo in the Tang Dynasty, 150,000 troops have died in the hands of the Tang Dynasty before and after Tubo, and it is difficult for Tubo to threaten the Tang Dynasty, so from today on, the envoy can move freely in Chang'an, as long as he does not violate the law, then he can go anywhere, and he can also send a letter to the Qinling Tomb......"

Zabala looked up abruptly and looked at Li Zhi in disbelief.

Datang actually allowed him to communicate freely with Tubo, could it be said that Datang has swelled to such a point?

Li Zhi's indifferent gaze fell, and Zabala couldn't help but shudder.

Datang is not inflated, it is self-confidence.

"Alright, the dedication is over, you can step aside." Li Zhi waved his hand again.

Zabala staggered to his feet, his feet numb for some time.

Bowing his head, Zabala arched his hand with a heavy face: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace." ”

With that, Zabala slowly retreated.

The gift continues.

The envoys of the Turks, Dashi, Tianzhu, Khotan, Qiuci and other countries successively presented valuable gifts and sincerely surrendered to the Tang Dynasty.

Finally, a familiar figure appeared in Li Xuan's eyes.

Murong Nuo, the king of Tuyuhun, walked up from behind with a brown box in his hand.

In an instant, the faces of Li Zhi and the ministers in the palace sank at the same time.

Li Xuan stood in the middle of the queue, the corner of his eyes swept over Murong Nuo's bowl, and a trace of disgust flashed in the depths of his eyes.

At the time of the war last year, the Murong clan was obviously not attacked, but in the battle of Dafeichuan, it always gathered its forces and shrank in Fuqi City.

After that war, the Tang Dynasty began to conduct strict scrutiny of caravans heading to Tuyuhun, and at the same time increased the proportion of customs duties.

At the same time, there were constantly troops coming and going around the city, as if the next moment, they would kill into the city.

Throughout the winter, the entire city of Fuqi fell into a state of panic and unease.

A few years ago, Murong Nuo Haobo followed Li Xuan and Liu Xianli back to Chang'an, and except for the routine reception of Honglu Temple, no one else saw him at all.

Not to mention the emperor.

Even today, in the Zhengdan Dynasty, countless foreign envoys paid tribute, and Tuyuhun was assigned to the last one.

You must know that this is the Tuyuhun King Murong Nuo Haobo personally entered the palace.

The dignity of the king was ranked last, which shows the anger of the entire Tang Dynasty towards Tuyuhun.

"Minister, Captain of the Horse, King of Xiping County, King of Tuyuhun, Wudi Ye Baldou Khan, Murong Nuo, meet Your Majesty, and wish Your Majesty a long life." Murong Nuo knelt down on the ground.

Murong Nuo, although he was removed from the official position of the governor of Anle Prefecture and the general of Zuo Xiaowei, he was still the commander of the Tang Dynasty and the king of Xiping County.

The Murong clan put these two titles at the forefront, which shows his humble attitude.

Li Zhi's indifferent gaze fell on Murong Nuo's bowl, and after sweeping his eyes twice, he finally raised his hand calmly: "Calm down." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Murong Nuo got up, and then stretched out his hand to open the wooden box in front of him, and in the entire box, there was only a piece of jade as the size of a box.

The square, but soft glow of the emerald jade, immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Murong Nuo hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, this is a rare treasure found by the minister in the depths of Kunlun Mountain. ”

"It is rumored that when Bian He found He's Bi, his appearance was just an ordinary stone, and in the end, after grinding and cutting, it became He's Bi." Li Zhi looked at Murong Nuo's bowl, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Aiqing has a heart." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Murong Nuo hurriedly bowed down and said at the same time: "Your Majesty's destiny has descended, and you will live forever and be blessed. ”

Li Zhi nodded with satisfaction and said, "Datang is ordered by the sky, and he will live forever. ”

"Datang is ordered by the sky, and it is longevity and eternal prosperity; Your Majesty's Mandate of Heaven has no borders. At the same time, the ministers knelt down to congratulate.

Li Zhi smiled, then waved his hand to the side.

Wang Fulai immediately stepped forward, unfolded the holy decree in his hand, and read it aloud: "Weiyi Feng is three years, the age is Wuyin, the first month is ugly, the first day of Yihai, if the emperor says:

Yu play!

Fu Cheng Kangbang, send deep Yue Mu.

Silk Nexus Privy Secretary, sent to the Que, curtain dedication, only important. Wangshi and Long, pro-Xiansi.

There is a book of the Ministry of Industry, a public trial ceremony in Pengcheng County, a deep amount of space, and a refreshing wind god; He is also civil and military, and his reputation is well-known.

With the addition of cicadas, the court is appropriate.

The trial ceremony can be guarded, holding the Ministry of Works, and the rest is the same.

Qin this life, the world is with you. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty will live forever." Liu Xianli suppressed the excitement in his heart and bowed seriously.

Although Liu Xianli knew very early that he was going to inspect the books of the Ministry of Engineering as a servant, the holy decree would be variable every day.

Today, in the Zhengdan Dynasty, the emperor worships him in front of hundreds of officials, clans, foreign envoys, as well as officials, the elderly and children, which shows his trust.

Li Zhi nodded with satisfaction, and then looked sideways at Wang Fulai.

Wang Fulai continued to take out the holy decree and read: "But Yifeng is three years old, the age is Wuyin, the first month is ugly, and on the first day of the first month of Yihai, if the emperor says:

…… He served as the acting governor of the prefecture, Xue Li, the prince of Pingyang County, the general of the left guard of the school, and suppressed the ...... of Northern Xinjiang"

"Minister Xue Li, thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty has a long life." Xue Rengui was dressed in bright light armor and walked out solemnly.

The reason why the emperor asked him to inspect the general of the left guard, instead of transferring him back from Daizhou, was because the Turks were uneasy and needed to be suppressed.

"Wei Yifeng for three years...... Ren Suizhou Thorn S岑 Changqian as the secretary and supervisor ......"

"Chen Cen Changqian thanks Your Majesty Longen, Your Majesty has a long life." Cen Changqian stood up, and then knelt down to receive the order.

"Wei Yifeng for three years...... Establish the Governor's Mansion of Changzhou, with the history of Changzhou Thorn, Nanchang Wang Xuan as the governor of Changzhou, the general of the left guard of the inspection school, and the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple ......"

"Minister Li Xuan, thank you Your Majesty Longen, Your Majesty has a long life." Li Xuan stood up and solemnly received the order.

The moment he lowered his head, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

This general of the left guard of the school is still in his hands.

……

"Wei Yifeng for three years...... Awarded Li Ne, the son of King Han, as a ...... for Hangzhou"

"Wei Yifeng for three years...... Grant Li Xu, the son of King Huo, to be the ...... of Jiangzhou"

……

After a long time, the hall was already full of kneeling people.

Zhao Renben stepped forward and knelt in the center of the hall again.

Holding the memoir in his hand, Zhao Renben said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, congratulations to Rui, the gift has been completed!" ”

On the royal couch, Li Zhi nodded slightly and raised his hand: "Xing!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Renben stood up, Liu Xianli stood up, Cen Changqian stood up, Li Xuan stood up, and all the ministers in the palace stood up, bowed down and retreated into the train.

Li Zhi looked up at the ministers in the palace, and said with a solemn gaze: "In the second year of Yifeng, thanks to the hard work of the ministers, the national fortune is flourishing, but now it is far from the time when the swords and guns are put into storage, and the horses are put in Nanshan. ”

After a slight pause, Li Zhi said with a soothing expression: "Today's first day of the Lunar New Year is also the anniversary of the emperor's grandson. ”

"Your Majesty obeys the order, thank you Majesty Longen." The ministers bowed their heads heavily.

"Dangdang, dang, dang!" The bell of Ruibin rang, and the music of Taihe should be played.

"Pilgrimage, the saint comes out, and the ministers of the Liangyi Hall are feasted."

"Ministers and other respectful to Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live!"

……

Li Xuan slowly walked out of the Taiji Palace, looked at Li Ne and Li Xu with surprised faces, and said in his heart: "The emperor acted in a whimsical manner. ”

One Jiangzhou, one Hangzhou.

The emperor's purpose, I'm afraid, is not so simple.

There is also Ming Chongyan.

This time, the emperor did not move a word, and suppressed all his movements, and he did not know what he would think.
