Chapter 58: A Family

"Tubo has always been the henchman of the Tang Dynasty and Tuyuhun, as the so-called side of the couch, how can others be allowed to snore, but on the side of our couch, there is a fierce beast."

"This time the Tang Dynasty can drive away Tubo, and in the future, Tubo will definitely make a comeback, which will only make us tired of coping, and if we don't completely eliminate Tubo, we will not have peace after all!"

Li Jing looked at everyone, ended the question about salt, and led the topic to Tubo, the common enemy of Datang and Tuyuhun.

Because of environmental problems, Tubo was in the plateau area, and the Tang army was not adapted to the plateau, and was prone to headaches, insomnia, loss of appetite, tiredness, difficulty breathing and other altitude sickness.

Li Jing hoped that after driving out Tibet, he would train an army that could adapt to the plateau in places close to Tibet, such as garrisoning troops in Dafeichuan, so as to make all preparations for the elimination of Tibet.

Above the main hall, there was a sudden silence!

This is a sensitive topic, although these Tuyuhun ministers are close to the Tang Dynasty and are even more biased towards the Tang Dynasty in some matters, it does not mean that they will allow the Tang army to enter Tuyuhun.

If the Tang army is stationed in Tuyuhun, it is undoubtedly a sharp sword hanging over their heads, this sharp sword may fall at any time, and they want everything, in this way, what is the difference between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo?

What else do you say about the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore, the side of the couch of Tuyuhun, if you don't let Tubo snore, can you let Tang snore?

But this can't be said explicitly, if it annoys Li Jing, people won't leave, but it's bad!

You must think of a safe way, so that the other party has no reason to stay, it is best to let the other party eat coptis dumbly, and if you can't say it, you will leave in disgrace.

"Lord Regent, I'll replace wine with milk, I toast you!"

Tuyuhun's right minister, Lai Pidalai, got up and picked up a bowl of milk soup on the table, and toasted Li Jing, hoping to take the opportunity to prevaricate the past.

Li Jing sneered, and he understood the other party's thoughts in his heart, but ......

Li Jing looked at Murong Zhong, Murong Zhong didn't seem to see or hear, and lowered his head to cook, as if in his eyes, there were only delicious food.

Li Jing's eyes narrowed slightly, and the guards in the palace sensed Li Jing's gaze, and under Li Jing's hint, he killed Lai Pidalai with a knife, and his head fell on the table, and then rolled from the table to the ground, blood splashed.

Several officials next to him were covered in blood, and even the delicious dried meat and milk soup were stained red with blood.

The official sent by Datang was expressionless, and his heart was already happy, okay! This is what happens if you disobey the regent.

Minister Tuyuhun and Murong Zhong were so frightened that they almost collapsed to the ground.

How dare he?

How dare you kill Tuyuhun's right minister at will in Tuyuhun's palace.

The ministers looked at Murong Zhong, hoping that their king would be able to make decisions for them.

But it backfired, Murong Zhong felt their gaze, not only did he not stand up to uphold justice for the dead Lai Pidalai, but instead lowered his head and pretended that nothing had happened.

Minister Tuyuhun was slightly disappointed, Tuyuhun has such a king, is there any hope for Tuyuhun?

"Humph! This bastard actually dares to destroy the relationship between Datang and Tuyuhun, Datang and Tuyuhun are as close as a family, how can he sow discord!"

Li Jing said lightly.

Datang and Tuyuhun are like a family, how can a family talk two words, and want to be vague when Datang sends troops to garrison Dafei River, isn't this just provoking the family to turn against each other?

What's the use of keeping such a person, since it's useless, then you can only kill it, who makes him want to sow discord?

The audience was silent.

No one dared to take Li Jing's words, for fear that he would say something wrong and end up like the right prime minister Lai Pidalai.

No one wants to become a second Rai Pidalai, they only care about whether they can survive or not.

"I don't know if you have any objections to my proposal just now, you might as well speak up and speak freely!"

Li Jing said with a smile.

Everyone shuddered, this Li Jing is obviously hiding a knife in his smile!

If you dare to stand up against it, the right Prime Minister Lai Pidalai is their example, and even the eggs may shake you off!

"Since everyone has no opinion, then it has been decided, when Tubo is driven away, I will leave 30,000 soldiers and horses in Dafeichuan, and all the expenses of the 30,000 army will not bother you, Datang is fully responsible."

"In order to make Datang and Tuyuhun more intimate, Tuyuhun nobles and officials can go to Datang to learn advanced knowledge, come back to build Tuyuhun, and make Tuyuhun stronger and brighter!"

Li Jing continued.

The purpose of letting the nobles and officials of Tuyuhun go to Datang to study is to strengthen their sense of belonging to Datang.

I believe that it won't be long before the Tuyuhun people will regard themselves as Datang people and be proud to be Datang people.

At that time, Tuyuhun's territory will truly become the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and the Tuyuhun Kingdom will also become the autonomous region of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Jing has already thought about it, and when Tuyuhun really becomes the territory of the Tang Dynasty, he will set Tuyuhun as Tuyuhun Autonomous Province, just like the autonomous region in later generations.

The internal administrative division of Datang was redivided, divided into four levels: province, state (government), county, and town, and the entire Datang set up two capitals and sixteen provinces.

The province is under the jurisdiction of the prefecture and the prefecture of Zhili, the prefecture under the government is divided into prefectures and counties, and the towns under the jurisdiction of the county, only the prefecture under the jurisdiction of the province is under the jurisdiction of the county, and the prefecture under the jurisdiction of the government does not receive the county.

However, these will have to wait for his class teacher to return to the court, and then slowly get it, now is not the time.

At the end of the banquet, Li Jing asked Murong Zhong to go back to rest, and Li Jing left the officials of the Tang Dynasty stationed in Tuyuhun.

"You should know why you were sent here, now is the time to employ people, I will select a few people among you to be responsible for the management and collection of salt tax, food tax, jerky and milk powder are included in the food project, there are any of you who are willing to take the initiative to ask."

"Regent, the minister is willing to serve the regent!"

"Loyal to the Regent!"

"The minister is willing to serve the regent!"

……

More than a dozen officials from Datang stationed in Tuyuhun knelt down and saluted without the slightest hesitation!

You must know that the salt administration is a fat gap, as long as it leaks a little from it, it can also be rich, and it can set their income for several years.

If you perform well, it will be very beneficial to be promoted in the future, and after returning to Chang'an, you can also buy a house in Xuanyangfang, Xuanyangfang is the most luxurious place in the entire Tang Dynasty, and the people who can live in Xuanyangfang are all people with high status and rich people.

It is a place that countless people yearn for, but they don't know how Fan Zhongyan, who is known for his honesty and honesty, can allow someone under him to embezzle.

If these people dare to make up their minds on salt, Fan Zhongyan will not let them go first.

Among them, Li Jing selected eight people to be responsible for managing the salt administration, the production and collection of food.
