Dunhuang.
A new day finally ushered in Li Shimin's order.
Li Chengqian took Su Dingfang and Songtsan cadres who wanted to become people of the Tang Dynasty to welcome the messenger who came to convey the will.
Seeing the officials who came to deliver the message, Songtsen cadre couldn't be happier.
"Great, I will finally become a citizen of the Tang Dynasty."
But Songtsan, the cadre, kept feeling proud, while the dozen or so Turkic nobles next to him who couldn't help but fidget finally cried with joy.
"Great, I can finally go back. I'm going to starve to death if I stay here."
None of them thought that such a scene would occur. The Tang officials in front of them finally brought an order that was quite beneficial to them.
After the group finished their polite greetings, the officials began to read out Li Shimin's decree.
"By God's destiny, the emperor decreed..."
After the series of words of praise came to an end, the serious orders began.
"The whole country of Tubo Songtsan cadres surrendered and was named King of Pingxi."
This reward was beyond everyone's expectations. Everyone knew that Songtsan cadres would definitely be crowned kings. What does it mean to be just a Pingxi?
He was not the one to judge Tubo, so how could he be allowed to be Pingxi?
However, although everyone was puzzled as to why Li Shimin wanted to confer the title of King Pingxi to the original Songtsan cadre of Tubo, since they had already conferred the title of King Pingxi, they could not say anything more and could only keep complimenting Songtsan cadre in front of the eunuch who passed the order. .
As for the current Songtsan cadres? That’s a joy!
Regardless of his identity or where he is, he roars loudly.
"I've been crowned king, I've been crowned king, I'm the prince of the Tang Dynasty, that's great."
It's just that the news came too suddenly, and Songtsan was too happy. Before Songtsan could get any happier, the eunuch next to him said another sentence.
"Please be patient, King Pingxi, as the reading of the decree is not over yet."
At this time, Songtsan cadre looked at the eunuch in front of him with confidence, wondering what other great news this eunuch who was delivering the decree had.
The patient officer Cui Oh's next words really surprised everyone.
"The king of Pingxi made great contributions to the dynasty, and the great duke of Pingxi gave the daughter of the clan as his wife."
At this moment, Songtsen cadre was surprised and stayed where he was, motionless.
The current Songtsan cadre just muttered one sentence.
Give the daughter of the clan as a wife.
get married! The marriage was successful.
In an instant, Songtsan cadre jumped up from where he was.
"It's so beautiful. I really have a daughter-in-law, and she's also a clan daughter. It's great, it's great."
Cadre Songtsan said this, and looked at Li Chengqian and said, "Your Highness, I will become your relative. Please take me to Chang'an City to enjoy the blessings."
Cadre Songtsan did not behave like any leader of a country. Instead, he kept asking for happiness, which made Li Chengqian look at him with amusement in his eyes.
Su Dingfang also looked at Cadre Songtsan with a flash of light in his eyes.
Is this king pretending to be like this, or is he really like this?
However, it is also a good thing to be able to go to Chang'an, and the Tibet originally ruled by Songtsan cadres will belong to the Tang Dynasty.
Just when everyone was sighing that this thing was done beautifully, the Tang Dynasty took over the entire land of Tubo without any effort, and it was worthy of celebration, the eunuch continued to read out.
In the end, Tubo really became a county in the Tang Dynasty, but for a while there was no suitable candidate for His Royal Highness to have full authority.
Moreover, the decree stated that His Royal Highness's Crown Prince Tiance Wei was familiar with things on the plateau, so Tiance Guard should be allowed to control the territory and Tibet, and everything should be done expeditiously.
At this time, Li Chengqian didn't have any dissatisfaction, but just opened his mouth.
"Chang Sun Chong."
Just as he said this sentence, Li Chengqian scratched his head in embarrassment and looked at the generals around him.
The principal said.
"Now that I'm going to make you laugh, I thought of Chang Sun Chong again. He was the first to propose training soldiers here so that they could adapt to the climate on the plateau. Now he's almost causing unnecessary trouble again."
It is inappropriate to point out the wrong name.
As the prince, Li Chengqian was a little embarrassed, but Li Chengqian explained that although Su Dingfang was not a general of the Tiance Guard, nor a general led by the Prince Guard, he was the most famous general on the scene.
Su Dingfang hurriedly spoke beside Li Chengqian.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is far-sighted and has made the necessary preparations in advance. I admire you. I wonder how His Highness the Crown Prince will arrange it? Shall we immediately lead troops into Tibet and transform Tibet into counties one after another according to His Majesty's wishes? ?」
After Su Dingfang asked for instructions, Songtsan cadre said beside him.
"Don't be so anxious. Let me first tell you about the population distribution of Tubo."
Then the performance of loose cadres started in the camp, which made everyone think highly of loose cadres.
Since he has become the Pingxi King of the Tang Dynasty and has given the clan daughter a marriage gift, he should be somewhat respectful no matter what.
Everyone didn't care what his previous status was, but now that he was the king of the Tang Dynasty, they would respect him.
Fortunately, Songtsan cadres did not disappoint them. The ability they showed convinced them that they could better go to Tubo and divide Tubo into counties suitable for the Tang Dynasty.
However, looking at the officials in the court who were busy comparing and drawing pictures, the eunuch didn't know what to do for a moment, and was confused about this and that.
After Song Gan finally fully explained the hydrological and geographical conditions of the Tubo population, Li Chengqian and others finally came to their senses when they saw the eunuch anxiously using this and that.
"I wonder if you have anything else to do?"
The eunuch looked at Li Chengqian's question and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Your Highness, the decree has not been read out yet."
Li Chengqian laughed when he saw this.
"You see, this edict has not been read out yet, but it has forgotten you. This is interesting. We were so happy just now that we forgot about the real thing and forgot to forgive you."
Although Li Chengqian was polite to the eunuch in front of him, the eunuch didn't dare to take it seriously and hurriedly spoke in front of Li Chengqian with tears of gratitude.
"His Royal Highness, you are joking. You are only thinking about important matters of the country. Our reward can wait a little longer."
However, Li Chengqian shook his head.
"Rewards cannot wait. Only reasonable rewards can ensure that everyone will not have thoughts that they shouldn't have."
Although Li Chengqian didn't say it clearly, Li Zhong, who was among the prince's guards, felt his heart skip a beat.
"Are you trying to wake me up? I didn't do anything extreme!"
Li Zhong couldn't help but think about what he had done during this period of time. Although he felt sorry for Li Chengqian, the Tang Dynasty Guards, and even the armor on his body in many ways, he did not think of others for himself. Li Zhong did feel that something big would happen. thing.
Li Chengqian didn't care what kind of ripples his words would create in the hearts of others. Instead, he motioned to the eunuch to continue reading out the decree.
This time the eunuch started talking again.
"Your Majesty has a decree..."
The merits of these generals are basically the second generation of top officials. Either they are the heirs of the king or the heirs of the prince, but the rewards can only be some good things with a name, some gold and silver, which is It's normal for them.
Just seeing that Changsun Chong and Zhao Dong, who had made the greatest contribution to accepting the decree, were not present, I couldn't help but feel a little bored.
As for Zhao Dong and Changsun Chong, they were already galloping westward on the grassland with thousands of Tang army cavalry.
"Hurry up, hurry up, what the hell is going on with this weather? Hurry up and set up camp. The sun was shining just now, why are there dark clouds now?"
Changsun Chong and Zhao Dong can't live together
Shouting there.
Yes, they encountered bad weather after entering the grassland. It was not the time when Xu Yunyan and the others reinforced the camp but the second time.
Looking at the spooky weather with dark clouds and thunder and lightning from time to time, Changsun Chong and Zhao Dong spread their hands helplessly.
"We are within the borders of the Tang Dynasty, and we have not encountered such bad weather. How come the grassland that was originally controlled by the Turks and now belongs to our Tang Dynasty looks like this?"
Changsun Chong kept wailing at the scene, feeling that he had suffered some injustice, while Zhao Dong also scratched his head.
"We don't know this either! But the weather is like this, so we'd better set up camp as soon as possible to avoid any accidents."
"Okay, just as you said."
Changsun Chong and Zhao Dong hurriedly set up camp to avoid any accidents and unnecessary casualties.
Changsun Chong was shouting there, and Zhao Dong was helping Changsun Chong and worrying about whether there would be any accidents. Fortunately, the Tang army trained quickly and quickly set up a camp suitable for them to resist the storm. After the new camp was cleaned up, the storm finally came.
Seeing the appearance of this world-destroying storm, Changsun Chong and Zhao Dong could not help but be surprised in the camp.
If you encounter such a situation on the grassland, it may not be so miserable if you are not prepared.
But when I thought of this, I immediately thought of their master, and their general didn't know what happened to him on the grassland.
Changsun Chong muttered this sentence, and Zhao Dong also sighed.
"I didn't expect such a situation on the grassland. The general suffered on the grassland."
They all felt that Xu Yunyan must be on the grassland. As for whether he was suffering, could he not suffer from the world-destroying scenes outside from time to time?
Although they are constantly worried about their general and master Xu Yunyan here, Xu Yunyan is also suffering now and cannot express his pain.
"What the hell is going on? Didn't I just casually say that a storm is coming? How come there is really a storm coming? Could it be that my crow's beak attribute has evolved and I mean what I say? If so, I said yes Someone I know well comes to me and tells me everything I have forgotten. Will he take it seriously?" Kanshu La
Xu Yunyan muttered there, and led more than a hundred of their cavalry to temporarily find a mountain col to escape the storm. When it was not time to complain in the temporary tent, he never thought that there was really a horse in the east that could help him find what he wanted. The team of all the forgotten information is rushing towards the place where they appeared.
If Xu Yunyan knew this, he might not be able to make a wish or ask God to help him.
However, there were not so many ifs. Just when Xu Yunyan was worried about whether the bad weather would bring any inconvenience to him, Sun Ning and Sun Xiaoning, who had already broken camp and left, couldn't help but sigh.
"Does our husband really understand the astrology, or is he deliberately making fun of us? Look at the scene outside. It looks like the first storm we have experienced. It's just that this time, my husband encountered us in the wilderness. How will we deal with the weather like this?"
Sun Ning was worried, but Sun Xiaoning said something from the side.
"My husband must be hiding in Lane City. He went to Rhine City. Could it be that my husband would be so upset that he would stay outside in such bad weather instead of staying in Lane City?"
