Chapter 288: Master and Apprentice

Enlightened Square.

Cao Busha took a flying coin and looked at the sun.

She had heard of this thing, but it was the first time she had seen it, but Ge Shuhan gave her several photos just a few days after returning to Chang'an.

"Don't let this old scoundrel cheat my house."

Muttering in her heart, she planned to go to Fenghui Bank to convert all the flying money into gold and silver, or buy some treasures, find a jar and bury it in the ground.

Because her grandfather said that there is no way of good fortune and misfortune, no one knows that a catastrophe will come one day, it is not necessary to buy a house and land, and leave some capital to ensure that the future days are serious.

She didn't even tell her brother about this, she went out with the flying money in her hand, and was locking it, when she suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves.

Turning his head to look, on the other side of the alley, Xue Bai led the horse and walked as if he was still thinking about something.

She immediately became vigilant, worried that Xue Bai would know about her money.

"What are you doing again?"

"Is General Geshu here?"

"He's not here."

Cao Bu didn't regret the words like gold, and turned his head and left.

Seeing this scene, Xue Bai had to admit that Ge Shuhan knew how to pick women. Although Cao Busha is pungent, greedy for money, has a bad personality, and is even a scoundrel in Chang'an City, it is rare not to take him, a handsome young man, seriously, which shows that she is determined and reliable.

He's not good at picking, he likes to be pretty.

Retracting his mind, Xue Bai turned over and got on his horse, and went directly to the right minister's mansion in Pingkangfang, and when he arrived, he saw that Ge Shuhan's abnormal horse was being bolted outside.

Ge Shuhan is also a horse lover, since the cold winter Layue did not lead the mount to the stable, he must not stay for too long, so Xue Bai waited outside the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

After a while, it happened that Kyauuknu arranged for the carriage and horse to come out of the side door, and she was getting on the carriage, turned her head to look over here, and saw Xue Bai.

Kyauuknu usually pretends to be very cold on purpose, but when he is really surprised, he will still be stunned, his eyes are straight, he hurriedly entered the carriage, and walked to him after coming out.

"Hey, what are you doing here?"

"Wait for Brother Shuhan."

What Jiaonu was about to say choked up, glared at Xue Bai angrily, and said, "Wait for Brother Shuhan, right?" ”

"Seventeen Niang only returned to Yuzhenguan today?"

"I went back the day before yesterday, and today I was called back by Ah Lang."

"Is the Li family's thirteen Lang okay?"

"You really have no conscience." Kyauk Nu cursed, turned and left.

After walking a few steps, she turned around and asked, "Also, are you stupid standing here cold?" ”

Xue Bai rubbed his hands and asked, "If it's cold, will you wait at the Prime Minister's Mansion?" ”

"It's better to die cold."

The carriage drove slowly, and Xue Bai watched it disappear on the side of the wall, and never saw Li Tengkong lift the curtain.

Not long after, Ge Shuhan came out, and he was not surprised to see Xue Bai, waved off the soldiers around him, and stepped forward and said, "Let's go, let's go to Sanqu to eat something hot together." ”

~~

Generally, the ministers and magnates go to Pingkangfang to prostitute Sanqu, and only go to Nanqu, because Nanqu is the most stylish.

Ge Shuhan is different, but he took Xue Bai to follow the wall, this is where ordinary people come to find a skin and meat business, the surrounding environment is not good, near the ditch, and there is a faint smell in winter.

The two sat down in a dilapidated green building.

"You must not be used to this kind of prostitute, just ask for some wine and food." Ge Shuhan was very comfortable, waved his big hand, and shouted: "Burst the charcoal, come." ”

This is the prostitute's name for the bustard's mother, and only the unscrupulous benefactor will shout with the prostitute.

Ge Shuhan didn't care, skillfully ordered the food, very generously threw a small gold bead, asked for good wine, and finally explained: "The wine must be enough." ”

"Okay, wait a minute, official."

Ge Shuhan sighed and said, "There are few people here who still recognize me. ”

"After all, he is a famous general."

"The general has the trouble of the general, I have been here until I am forty years old, and I will come to this cheap Qinglou when the money runs out." Ge Shuhan said, "Although others looked down on me at that time, I was at least young, and now I am in a high position, but unfortunately I can't go back if I can't go back." ”

Xue Bai said: "I am different from the general, I have made up my mind since I was a child. ”

He could see that if Ge Shuhan really came here to prostitute, he would actually not be able to prostitute anymore, and he liked to come over, and prostitution was nothing more than the feeling of being young.

"You are like General Wang, dull. Then let's get down to business, come over for the sake of Yan Gong's business? ”

"Yes." Xue Bai said: "Li Yanye privately invited the Tubo people to a banquet, if this case is overturned, it will also hit the morale of Longyou, right?" ”

"Don't be a fool." Ge Shuhan said: "I know what you want to say, you don't need to say it, just say my plan, let Yan Gong avoid it, and obey the right minister's wishes." ”

"Why?"

Ge Shuhan waited for the bustard's mother to bring the wine and food before he said, "Do you know who those Tubo people are?" ”

"I don't know."

"In the third year of Shenlong, Princess Jincheng and pro-Tubo, married Tubo Zampu, the so-called 'Zampu' is the King of Tubo, this person's name is Qidai Zhudan, although he married Princess Jincheng, he is actually ambitious, and repeatedly wants to encroach on my Tang territory."

Xue Bai knew that Princess Jincheng had been dead for ten years, so it was estimated that Zhu Dan was also very old.

Ge Shuhan said: "In the past two years, the sage was determined to attack Tubo, the soldiers used their lives, the Tibetan army was defeated and retreated, and Zhudan planned to sue for peace, so he sent people to Chang'an. Li Yanye met privately with the people who came with the Tibetan envoys. ”

"Did the general ask my teacher to keep an eye on these Tibetans?"

"Not bad." Ge Shuhan said: "You don't know much about it, you must think that these Tubo people are meticulous works to explore the reality of the Tang Dynasty?" ”

Xue Bai asked, "Isn't it?" ”

He believes that the reason why Yan Zhenqing is so vigilant is likely to be partly due to this.

However, Ge Shuhan shook his head and thought about whether he could tell Xue Bai before continuing to speak.

"There is nothing to do in Tubo, the truth is that there are ministers in Tubo who want to kill the ruler and take the bead pill, so they secretly sent people to Chang'an to ask for the support of the Tang Dynasty. Li Yanye met with the Tubo people in private, but in fact, he was under the secret decree of the saint, and Yan Gong should not impeach him. ”

"General Geshu might as well say it directly, you completely obeyed Gonu's arrangement, and you seem to be more straightforward."

"I'm telling the truth." Ge Shuhan said: "Yan Gong and these Tubo people arrived in Chang'an at the same time, and they met on the way, suspecting that they were meticulous, and under vigilance, Li Yanye was impeached. I broke you away that day in order to tell him the truth, but he was afraid of his reputation and refused to stop, so the right minister had to invite him to Dali Temple. ”

Xue Bai said: "General, my teacher wronged Li Yanye for the sake of fame." ”

"What I mean, Yan Gong misunderstood at the beginning, and then he couldn't get off the stage."

"This is also the rhetoric of the god?"

Ge Shuhan said: "There is a tribe in Tibet named Subi, the Subi people are the Xiqiang race, more than 10,000 people, the territory is vast, Songtsen Gampo conquered Subi during his reign, and now the Subi people want to rebel, and secretly unite some of the nine ministers of Tubo. If you don't believe it, you can go to the sage and continue to complain, and see if your teacher is wrong or Li Yanye is wrong. ”

Xue Bai listened to what he said in such detail, and finally realized that what Ge Shuhan said might be true.

General Jinwu met with the Tibetan traitor by the secret decree of the saint, but Yan Zhenqing knew about it and wrote a letter of impeachment...... This may be partly true.

And then what? Ge Shuhan reminded Yan Zhenqing that he had impeached the wrong person, but Yan Zhenqing didn't listen, and Li Linfu took the opportunity to make a move? Or was it a bureau in the first place?

……

"I know you're dealing with the right minister." Ge Shuhan said: "Today, only you and I are in this dirty and small Qinglou, and I will say a few words from my heart." ”

"Okay."

Ge Shuhan said: "Let's talk about General Wang first, I have received the great favor of General Wang, and I am willing to die for him." Everyone in the world says that General Wang is loyal and righteous, but let me tell you, in the matter of Shibao City, General Wang is indeed selfish, as a general, not ruthless enough to the enemy, and the damage is the Tang Dynasty...... You don't have to refute, how long have you been with General Wang? I have been born and died with him for so many years, I know him better than you, sooner or later you will find out that General Wang is not exactly for the Tang Dynasty or the soldiers under his command. In these words, I am not saying that he is not good, but that he has accumulated too much prestige in the four towns, and the world thinks of him too well, this is a killing, and people should not be so good. ”

Xue Bai said: "People are originally multifaceted, no matter how you say it, it is right, but the final conclusion depends on our position, isn't it?" ”

"General Wang is still like this, and so is Yan Zhenqing." Ge Shuhan said to himself, "Just because he is a teacher, he won't make mistakes?" What's more, this mistake is also human nature, and it is enough to be released for two years, and no one has ever said that he will be severely punished. On the contrary, it is the killing that is the deadliest. ”

"In matters of right and wrong, my teacher will not be wrong."

"Wrong is wrong, I know the truth. Besides, the right prime minister, you always think that the right minister is jealous of the virtuous and can deceive the saints, and it is good to change the prime minister? At least that's not what I saw in Helong. Without him, which Tsukasa can still guarantee Helong's countless military expenses every year? Who will guard the territory and defend the prosperity of Chang'an? The right minister is not as unbearable as the world says, so he said that today's affairs, at least he is wise and understands the overall situation. ”

Ge Shuhan pointed at Xue Bai and said, "As for you, you are still young, and young people are too clear about right and wrong in the world." Militaristic affairs cannot be handled like you. ”

Xue Bai said: "I didn't expect the general to have such good eloquence, so what does the general suggest I do?" ”

"You go to the right prime minister's mansion again, admit your mistake to the right minister, and ask him to protect Yan Gong's reputation, and the matter is over." Ge Shuhan said, "As for those Tubo, I will personally stare at them and test their sincerity." ”

"Then I'll say a few words from my heart, okay?"

"Okay."

"No matter how right General Geshu is, it is nothing more than your interests, or the interests of Hexi and Longyou." Xue Bai said: "Assuming that I pay homage to the prime minister today, I will indeed not supply a large amount of military funds to Helong like Gannu, because I think that the Tang Dynasty is real on the outside and empty on the inside, and I think that the people's power can no longer support the good achievements of the saint." ”

"That's not for you to talk about."

"But right is right, wrong is wrong, no matter how much you disguise what is wrong, you can't hide the fact that Brother Nu has governed this prosperous world to the point of collapse. Even he himself was weak in heart and persecuted everyone who was more talented than him. If you say that the general only looks at Helong, it is your duty as a festival envoy. Then I am determined to be in the community, so I should see that Datang has many shortcomings and needs to change. ”

Ge Shuhan was stunned for a moment, and then drank a whole bowl of wine, and said: "You are right, you can't change the fact that the Tubo people are not meticulous, and Yan Zhenqing impeached the wrong person." ”

"I believe in my teacher in this matter, and I will prove that the teacher is right."

"Young."

Ge Shuhan didn't say anything more, and took another jar of wine.

Xue Bai looked at it and couldn't help but persuade: "It's better for the general to drink less, you are the best drink I have ever seen." ”

"Thanks for the compliment." Ge Shuhan lifted the wine bowl, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes looked a little proud.

Xue Bai felt for a moment that he couldn't persuade Ge Shuhan to drink less, just like he couldn't change the Tang Dynasty.

~~

Out of Pingkangfang, Xue Bai rubbed his face in the snow, thinking about the whole thing.

He believes in Yan Zhenqing more, in addition to the love between master and apprentice, but also because he has a general understanding of history.

He didn't know about the coup d'Γ©tat in Tibet, but he only knew that maybe more than ten years later, the Tubo soldiers pointed directly at Chang'an, and the Tang Dynasty abandoned the capital and fled in a hurry.

There may be any peace sug, some civil strife in Tibet, but he is deeply wary of this.

Like Yan Zhenqing, he didn't think that a Jinwu general meeting with the Tubo people in private was a matter for the Tang Dynasty to take advantage of.

This prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty also connected to win the battle, which made many people take it lightly......

Thinking of this, Xue Bai went to Da Xi Yingying first.

"But you can send someone to keep an eye on it, how is my teacher?"

"Gong Yan has returned home, this kind of lawsuit will not take him to prison." Da Xi Yingying hesitated for a moment, and then said: "But I heard that the case handled by Yan Gong in Shuofang County also has people who want to overturn the case. ”

"And then?"

"If this is the case, I am afraid it will damage the prestige of Yan Gong."

"A teacher's reputation is good, but he will not be burdened by prestige."

"Yes."

Xue Bai had a lot of things to tell Da Xi Yingying to do, and couldn't help asking: "Niang, Niangniang can send a letter, when will you arrive in Chang'an?" ”

"It's coming, just a few days."

"Okay." Xue Bai said: "You can help me check a few people......

~~

Dunhua Fang, Yan House.

When Xue Bai arrived, it was already evening, and he saw two carriages slowly driving away, and it seemed that there should be an official visiting.

When I entered Yan's house, I saw that preparations for the wedding had begun everywhere.

This made Xue Bai a little embarrassed.

He was led to the study to see Yan Zhenqing.

"Teacher."

"Before you get married, you shouldn't always come over." Yan Zhenqing was rummaging through the files, making a mess of the study.

Xue Bai couldn't help asking, "What is the teacher looking for?" ”

"Some accounts of Tibet...... You don't have to worry, I'm just doing my job, they can't help me, at most let me move out. ”

"Moving out will also delay the teacher's visit."

"The qualifications are not enough, what do you worship."

"The teacher is only four steps away from paying homage." Xue Bai stepped forward and said, "The students are here for the Tubo people." Ge Shuhan said that Li Yanye met the Tubo people by the secret decree of the saint? ”

"Did he tell you?" Yan Zhenqing sighed: "You shouldn't be involved in this matter. ”

"The students think that the teacher is being implicated by the students." Xue Bai said: "Otherwise, Brother Nu can remind the teacher, there is no need to force each other like this." ”

"It's all about you, isn't it?"

"When the students came, they saw an official leaving, I don't know who it was?"

"Okay." Yan Zhenqing put down the file in his hand and said, "Luo Xixiao is here to persuade me to give in to my brother." ”

"How to soften?"

"Saying that you are a lowly person and troublesome, I shouldn't have recruited a troublemaker like you as a son-in-law. It's time to take you to make amends to the right minister. ”

"Otherwise?"

"I made a mistake in Li Yanye's case, and if Zheng Yanzuo's case is found out again, I have wronged him, and my official reputation and official career will be ruined."

Xue Bai asked, "What is the teacher going to do?" ”

Yan Zhenqing stroked his long beard and said, "I told Luo Xixiao that I would consider it." ”

As soon as this sentence came out, the master and apprentice couldn't help but smile at the same time, looking a little cunning.

"Li Yanye's case, the teacher really made a mistake?"

Yan Zhenqing thought for a while and said, "General Geshu did tell me that those Tubo people wanted to discuss the matter of getting rid of the ruler belt Zhudan when they saw Li Yanye. But I still continue to impeach Li Yanye, one is that it is a felony to meet foreign ministers privately, especially Li Yanye is a general of the forbidden army, if everyone finds a reason, Chang'an will be in chaos. Second, those Tubo people are cunning, and I still doubt their purpose. ”

"What is the teacher suspicious? Are they going to assassinate the saints? ”

"It's not."

Yan Zhenqing groaned and said, "On my way back to Chang'an, I saw those Tubo people in the post house, and I had some bad intuition......

At this point, there was a hurried voice outside the study.

"Alang!"

Yan Zhenqing opened the door and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Southern Xinjiang...... Guo Gong died of illness! ”

"What?"

"Guo Erlang is outside the door, please see Ah Lang."

"Quick!"

Yan Zhenqing strode to the hall and saw a young man wearing linen and filial piety crying on the ground.

"Yan Gong, my grandfather and brother are all gone......"

~~

The eighth year of Tianbao is about to pass, and in the month of Layue, another Shangzhu country has died.

Doctor Yinqing Guanglu, Shangshu of the Ministry of Inspection and Engineering, Jiannan Jiedu Interview Envoy, Shu County Metropolitan Governor's Governor Shi, Deputy Ambassador of Jiannan Jiedu Zhidu Yingtian, Interview and Disposal Envoy of Bendao and Shannan West Road, Shangzhu State, Guo Xuji.

Guo Xuji was born in the Guo clan in Taiyuan, and fought horses all his life, successively defeated the Tubo, Qiang, and Nanzhao, guarded Jiannan, and shocked the frontier. Before his death, he had just sent troops from Sichuan and Shu, broke through Qianjie City, captured the prime minister of Tubo, and put down a rebellion in Nanzhao.

He also had a younger sister who married the sage Zhaoyi, known as Guo Shunyi, and Guo Shunyi gave birth to the sixteenth son of the sage, Yongwang Li Xuan.

Xue Bai had heard of Guo Xuji's name several times, once when he was a giant businessman Guo Wanjin, who was under the name of Guo Xuji's relatives, and once when he returned to Guo Town, Guo Taigong also said that he was related to Guo Xuji.

But Xue Bai killed Guo Wanjin first, and then took Guo Taigong's land, but he didn't see the Guo family in Taiyuan to retaliate.

In any case, this year, Datang withered another famous general.

……

It was Guo Xuji's second son Guo Shu who reported to Chang'an, because Guo Xuji's eldest son also died on the frontier with him.

The Guo family and the Yan family are world friends, Guo Shu saw Yan Zhenqing, cried for a long time, and told the details of his father's death.

"At the beginning of the year, Grandpa took his brother to the western Sichuan Plateau, broke through more than 40 cities in the eight departments of Xifan, and placed the Jinchuan Protectorate to deter it. Later, when he heard that Tubo planned to recruit the king of Nanzhao, he led his troops back to Shu, but he contracted miasma on the way, and died of illness when he arrived in Shu, and his brother was also ......"

Yan Zhenqing sighed, but then had to ask: "Tubo wants to recruit the king of Nanzhao?" ”

"Yes, Tubo has always had the intention of wooing Nanzhao, but Ge Luofeng has always shown great loyalty to Datang. In the seventh year of Tianbao, there was a tribal rebellion in Nanzhao, and Grandpa sent the governor of Yaozhou to quell the rebellion, and Li Dudu said that the king of Nanzhao, Ge Luofeng, was unwilling to cooperate in quelling the rebellion. ”

Yan Zhenqing patted Guo Shu on the shoulder and said, "Let's take care of your grandfather and brother's affairs first." ”

Guo Shu said: "I want to send Grandpa and Brother back to Yanshi Shouyang Mountain for burial." ”

Yan Zhenqing couldn't help but glance back at Xue Bai.

Xue Bai only knew at this time that Guo Taigong was not a big talker, and the Taiyuan Guo family's descendants did buy a large cemetery in Shouyang Mountain.

He said, "I'll help with this." ”

"Thank you." Guo Shu looked at Yan Zhenqing again and said, "A-Niang wants to ask Yan Gong to write an epitaph for A-grandpa, I don't know if it's possible?" ”

Yan Zhenqing nodded and agreed.

At this time, someone rushed to Yan's house again, and shouted loudly from afar: "Guo Erlang is here, the sage summons ......"

~~

Shaoyang-in.

When the sky was bright, Zhang Ting was still asleep, she was woken up by the child many times last night, and she slept very deeply.

In a daze, he was pushed awake.

"Your Highness?"

"Guo Xuji is dead."

Zhang Ting was a little puzzled, got up, rubbed his eyes, and said, "Guo Xuji? ”

Li Heng couldn't explain Guo Xuji's great exploits in a sentence or two, and said: "Guo Shunyi's brother and Sixteen Lang's uncle." ”

"King Yong's uncle is dead?" Zhang Ting breathed a sigh of relief, "I was still thinking some time ago that since we arrived at Shaoyang Courtyard, King Yong has gradually become restless. ”

Li Heng shook his head and said, "Sixteen Lang won't, his aunt didn't get early, I raised him." When he was a child, I used to put him to sleep, feed him, and teach him to read......"

"You don't care so much about our children."

"That's because you love the child too much and don't give me a chance." Li Heng carefully coaxed Zhang Ting.

Zhang Ting said: "I still feel that King Yong is restless. ”

Li Heng smiled and said, "No, no matter how you rank, you can't rank him as sixteen." ”

"Is there a funeral?"

"There will be a shrine in the temple these days."

"It's just right, Your Highness can win over Yan Zhenqing."

"yes."

In the afternoon of the same day, Li Heng was indeed allowed to set up Guo Xuji's sacrificial hall with Li Lan.

He behaved very sadly, patted Li Luan on the back, and said: "You and I have a deep brotherly relationship, and your uncle is my uncle." ”

"Brother."

Li Ling choked up, moved to tears by this sentence.

They will surely remember this scene of brotherly love for the rest of their lives, and then recall it again and again one day later.

Li Heng then took the sackcloth and wore linen and filial piety like Li Lan, which won the favor of many officials.

He discussed with the officials Guo Xuji's achievements in his life and the situation in the southwest, and then turned to the back hall, only to see Yan Zhenqing holding a brush, standing in front of the table and meditating.

"Yan Gong is writing an epitaph for Guo Gong."

"I've seen Your Highness."

"No need to be polite, today I am just Guo Gong's nephew."

Li Heng mourned for a while, looked for an opportunity, and gradually brought the topic to Yan Zhenqing.

"By the way, I heard that Yan Gong has been in some trouble lately?"

"Your Highness has heard of it too?"

Li Heng lowered his voice and said, "I will support Yan Gong, and the Gong can find a horse to Zhang Yan, and he will help you." ”

Yan Zhenqing was stunned for a moment, and looked at Li Heng.

Li Heng nodded, because it was not appropriate to talk more, turned around and walked away, and went to talk to Zhang Yan.

According to his thoughts, Yan Zhenqing was severely suppressed by his brother slave, and at this time, he happened to throw himself into the East Palace with Xue Bai, Zhang Yan is a smart person and knows what to do.

Over there, Yan Zhenqing looked at the back of the crown prince, sighed, and once again recalled Guo Xuji's death and the changes in the situation in Tubo and Nanzhao.

He couldn't help but feel pathos, and then put down the pen, it was already swaying.

"Woohoo! The posture of public and military affairs, the festival of public loyalty, morality is all good, the road is all thoughtful, it is appropriate to be danqing, and the royal family is winged in the heyday. The great fate is not coming, and he dies in the king's affairs. Hinder the heart of the Holy Monarch and the ambition of the lonely people, don't you regret it?! ”

~~

A few days later, the New Year's Day was closer.

In the cold winter, Guo Shu left Chang'an with the generous gift of the saint and Yan Zhenqing's handwriting to pick up the bones of his father and brother.

Transporting bones from Sichuan and Shu, his family went down the Yangtze River, arrived in Yangzhou, and went north through the Yellow River to Yanshi. Although it has gone around the Tang Dynasty in a big circle, it is all waterways, and the old mother and her family can suffer a lot less.

Guo Shu was worn out because of riding a horse, he wiped his face full of wind and frost, and rushed to Shouyang Mountain.

As soon as he rode back, he didn't know what kind of national hatred and family hatred he had on his shoulders.

On the same day, a large group of people were also coming from Shouyang Mountain.

Fan Jiao rode his horse to the front of the team, looked up, looked at the majestic Chang'an City in the distance, and couldn't help but be shocked there.

It was the first time he came to Chang'an, and the first time he saw this magnificent city.

"Long ...... Changan. ”

Fan Gao escorted Du Youlin back this time, mainly because Xue Bai wanted to meet him and listen to him talk about the recent situation of the copper and iron business. And in his selfish heart, he actually wanted to meet the imperial grandson.

Knowing what kind of character the emperor and grandson is, he can safely put the lives of his brothers in the hands of the other party.

"What are you doing?"

Du Youlin rode forward and muttered, "Chang'an City, the old man is about to take over as the young Yin here." ”

"Du Gong has a bright future."

"I won't hide it from you, the old man is very weak-hearted." Du Youlin said, "It would be nice if you were the bad commander of Jingzhao Mansion." ”

"Du Gongmo is joking."

Fan Jiao resolutely refused, in awe, and entered Chang'an with the carriage and horse.

~~

Shengping Fang.

The Du Mansion, which had been quiet for more than a year, was lively again, and Du Wulang was happy and regretful, and he was busy settling down.

Finally moved a few boxes of books to the study, and Du Youlin couldn't wait to talk to Xue Bai.

"What about Xue Bai? I just saw him there. ”

"I'll look for it."

Du Wulang turned around before he came out of the study, and when he met him, Lu Fengniang greeted him and said, "What about your two sisters?" Just returned them. ”

"Ahh

"Ask you, what a fuss you make all the time about."

"Ah, I thought that there was something in Fengwei Lou recently, I should talk to Sister A, and I will go to them."

Du Wulang sniffed, ran all the way to the fourth courtyard, and was about to knock on the door in the west chamber, thought about it, rolled a snowball in the courtyard, and threw it on the window.

After that, I lost several in a row.

He waited for a while before he went over and asked, "Are you in there?" Grandpa is going to talk to you about business. ”

No one answered, so Du Wulang scratched his head and walked towards the courtyard, but saw Xue Bai, Du Yan, and Du Yan sitting in the pavilion, looking serious.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"Get down to business." Du Cheng was already boiling tea, and responded lightly.

Du Wulang was embarrassed to say that his grandfather also wanted to talk about business, after all, his grandfather really didn't have the confidence to say it.

He simply walked over and picked up a small tea bowl.

The three of them did not avoid him and continued to talk.

"So, right now, we're at odds with Gonu and Hu'er."

"As soon as Wang Ji dies, there is hope for the phase of the Gonu." Xue Bai said, "I have already done the first step, formed an alliance, and won a part of the official position. This is a piece of the pie, increasing our power and stripping him of his prestige. ”

Du Yan said: "What about the second step? ”

"To divide his border town forces, I have been enlisting the support of Geshuhan recently."

"I'm afraid it's hard, right?"

"Something happened right in front of me." Xue Bai said: "If the brother is right, as soon as the teacher's reputation is destroyed, the brother will stabilize his prestige; If we do, the Gonu will lose more support, and even the Goshuhan will be shaken. ”

"Li Yanye's case?"

"You've heard that, too." Xue Bai groaned, "This case is not as simple as it seems on the surface, it involves our saints, right ministers, and jiedu envoys, whether they were played by the Tubo people. ”

"What do you mean?"

"I'm guessing, or I'm worried that Nanzhao will rebel against the Tang Dynasty and join Tubo, this series of clues may come from the fact that Tubo is trying to win over Nanzhao."

Du Yan didn't say a word, and said, "I'll check." ”

"Okay, Da Xi Yingying has sent someone to secretly keep an eye on those Tubo people. In addition, the envoys of Nanzhao in the guest house of Honglu Temple also had to send people to keep an eye on them. ”

"I have a hunch that you're right again." Du Yan said, "Meritorious promotion, pointing directly at Brother Nu? ”

Xue Bai sighed slightly: "What I'm worried about is that the brother slave can no longer suppress the border towns and the barbarians. ”

Compared with the speed of his promotion, the Tang Dynasty Emperor and the prime minister seem to be getting old faster.

Year after year, you can always see some chaos, like a precursor to chaos.

Still thinking about these things, Du Wulang leaned into his ear and whispered a reminder.

"Hey, it's okay if you don't say it, but it'...... Rub the lip grease off your lips. ”

Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a monthly pass~~
