Di Renjie traveled all over Gyeongju, checked and filled in the gaps, and made small achievements, but after all, he had little effect. When manpower is exhausted, success depends on the will of God.

In May, the youngest daughter of the Turkic Khan Mosi, who had succeeded to the throne for three years, reached the age of marriage. Mo Si loves this little princess in every way, no less than Emperor Wu's great favor for Princess Taiping, and is bent on seeking a marriage for him. In the Turkic territory, warriors frequently expressed their hearts to the princess, but the Turkic princess admired the Great Zhou culture and hoped to cross the steppe and go to the distant Central Plains to experience the prosperity of many people.

Mo Si also has the idea of a monarch and a minister in her heart, and these subordinates of the tribe don't seem to be worthy of her daughter, since she admires the culture of the Great Zhou, it is not bad to find her a prince of the Great Zhou as her husband.

Therefore, he wrote a letter to Emperor Wu, hoping to marry His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and be able to choose a prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty who was both civil and military to marry, and to marry the Turks.

Mo Si once wrote a book, hoping to marry the princess of Emperor Wu, let him be Emperor Wu's godson, and use the vast area of Hetao as an appointment, and the Turks in return to crusade against the Khitan and stabilize the northern part of the Great Zhou.

Then Mo Si did not keep his word, received a handwritten letter from Qinling, and after marrying a princess of the clan, he plundered the border of the Great Zhou Dynasty and launched a war between the two countries, which lasted for a year and the treasury was seriously depleted.

Now that he is silently asking for peace, the court is divided into the main battle lord and two factions.

Taking Songtsen Gampo and Princess Wencheng as examples, the Lord and the faction pointed out that it was a great plan to stabilize the country by sobbing in harmony with relatives and spreading the culture of the Great Zhou.

Wu Zetian looked at the silent sip on the table, and sneered in his heart. What are you kidding, a northern barbarian actually wants to marry his own daughter and marry his daughter to his son.

But the courtiers did not hesitate to sell the two princes, especially the Wu clan, and thought day and night that the two princes could stay away from Chang'an.

Wu Zetian looked at the ugly scenes in the court, and his heart was cold.

After a round of admonitions from court officials, Wu Chengsi thought that the time had come, and stood up at the right time to admonish, "Your Majesty, the Turks are brave and good at fighting, if you don't agree to the request and give the Turks a handle, you will definitely go to war again." ”

Emperor Wu was worried that he couldn't find anyone to start, so he snorted coldly, "Since this is the case, then agree to make peace, canonize Wu Yanxiu as the Duke of Huanguo, and let him go to the Turks to marry the daughter of the Turkic Khan." ”

The Turks' move may just be looking for a reason to go to war, the prince of the Tang Dynasty went to the Turks to complete the marriage, is this the meaning of the next marriage or an attempt to detain him as a proton? Daydreaming.

Wu Chengsi listened to the cold in his heart, Wu Yanxiu is his second son, smart, handsome and chic, although he is young, he has to be the most fancy, and he also knows how to make Emperor Wu happy, because he made a mistake today, and actually sent him to Turkic peace.

The Turks are brutal, and if they can't get along, I'm afraid they will be separated by yin and yang, and there will be no day to see each other again.

After Emperor Wu said this, Wu Chengsi also planned to dissuade him.

Emperor Wu stopped him, "There is no need to discuss this matter, as the prime minister, he has the heart to worry about the country, and there is nothing wrong with this move." Yanxiu is the Duke of the Tang Dynasty and my own nephew, and with his talent and learning, he is impeccable. ”

The holy decree was transmitted to the Wu Mansion in a moment, and Wu Yanxiu was very happy to hear that he was named the prince of the country, and took the holy decree from the hand of the messenger and confirmed that it was correct, and he was really happy to fly to the sky one day.

The herald took out another volume of holy decrees, and Wu Yanxiu knelt down to receive the decree in a hurry.

Although the news of Turkic peace has spread throughout the court, he never expected that he would be selected and have to travel thousands of miles to the Turks.

Although Wu Chenghei is not good at Wen Tao Wuluo, his son is different from him, and Xu is name is good. There are two very prestigious things in Beijing when he is young, one is a loser, poor and extravagant, meticulous and picky about food and clothing, and Chang'an City is notoriously exaggerated. The second is that he is very talented in composing poems and composing music, the artistic conception is brilliant, vivid and just right, and he has been praised by Shangguan Wan'er. Wu Chenghei is therefore particularly fond of this son, who is not the eldest nor the youngest.

Hearing this news, Wu Yanxiu was not very surprised, but had a hint of joy. Marrying with him, backed by the Turks, can give his father more political capital, and silently named him to marry the prince, but His Majesty chose himself, isn't this the intention to promote himself and his father?

Wu Yanxiu was stunned for a moment and was quickly relieved, still happily accepting the order, and did not forget to express his willingness to be friendly to the messenger.

When Wu Chengsi returned home, Wu Yanxiu couldn't wait to share the joy with him, and subconsciously ignored Wu Chenghe's sad face.

Wu Chengsi stared at this hard-working baby, not knowing what to say.

"Xiu'er, this matter is not so simple. What kind of person is Mo Si, killing his brother and seizing the throne, repeatedly committing offenses, His Majesty can't get rid of it quickly. If you marry his daughter and start a war again, the people of the court will attack and defend against you. There is a tradition of marrying chiefs in the grassland, but in my Central Plains culture, for the Great Zhou, harmony is a shame. ”

Wu Yanxiu refused to believe this fact, and stubbornly retorted, "Your Majesty has always loved me, and it will not be like this, and marrying a Turkic princess may not be a good thing." ”

Wu Chengsi no longer persuaded him, it is better to face the future with hope than fear, I only hope that this family affair can go smoothly, Xiu'er can be safe, and will not be implicated by this daughter-in-law.

After several days of preparation, Wu Yanxiu went to the Turks with a large amount of silk silk. Wu Yanxiu, who was accustomed to fine clothes and fine food, began to enjoy the mountains and rivers in high spirits, and only three days later, he complained about the days of blindly rushing, and the bumps and boredom of the journey reminded him of the new road built in Wonju.

Therefore, the welcoming procession made a detour to Wonju, and the road was indeed much more comfortable, but it could not stop longer, leaving him with the impression that he would definitely transform all the roads of the long journey into such a way in the future.

Young people always yearn for beauty.

The carriages carrying the relatives, one by one, the silk silk is enough to pile up into a hill, His Majesty the Emperor Wu did not slack off on this marriage at all, and the people of Yuanzhou were stunned to watch the endless convoy passing, the majesty and pomp of the royal family are really big!

The northbound journey passed through Fenzhou and Shuozhou, and finally arrived at the Turkic border as scheduled.

Hearing that this was a convoy of Tang nobles marrying a beautiful Turkic princess, the Turks were very enthusiastic.

The unrestrained dance on the prairie, the passionate bonfire, and the juicy and sweet lamb skewers deeply attracted him.

Although Luoyang City is extravagant, it is a kind of literary and polite extravagance, a kind of hypocritical and ostentatious extravagance, and the hunting ground is not as green and boundless as the grassland, with herds of cattle and sheep, which is not spectacular. Wu Yanxiu followed the herdsmen to gallop wildly on the grassland, catching horses and barbecuing together, and the grassland culture seemed to be more suitable for his enthusiastic and unrestrained nature.

Although there are many that he is not very happy with.

Water, for example, is very scarce.

In the Turkic territory, fertile pastures are limited, and after a period of grazing, they have to rotate to recuperate. In the early days, the supply power of a place was exhausted, so that at the end of the pasture, a large desert was formed. In these deserts, many natural lakes will also be formed, and a vegetation will form an oasis according to the lake, which has become a strange natural landscape here.

Water is a crucial factor. Desertification means that the water in one place is not enough to feed the pastures to grow, so the herders especially cherish water.

This is something that the nobles from Luoyang cannot understand.

I owe a total of four chapters, and I haven't forgotten it.
