Li Shimin's words have made it very clear. If the prince wants to be recognized by Ma Zhou, then he should behave well. When the prince succeeds to the throne in the future, he will be the prince's prime minister.
Li Chengqian was so excited that he didn't expect that his father would leave him a prime minister.
"Thank you, father. I have resigned and will go visit Mr. Ma now."
As soon as Li Chengqian left, Wang De stepped forward and whispered: "Your Majesty, Commander Li just sent a message that the murderer who beat Tang Jian's son Tang Shanshi has been found, and behind him are Changsun Chong, Fang Yiai and Du He. "
Li Shimin's face immediately became stern, and he cursed: "You bastards, none of them are good."
"Inform Tang Jian about this matter and let them resolve it privately. Don't make a fuss. They don't want face, but I still want face!"
Li Shimin was really angry. Two days ago, Changsun Wuji mentioned to him again the marriage between Changsun Chong and Changle. Originally, he had agreed to marry Changle when the food war ended, but he didn't expect Changsun Chong to do this. Idiot, dog meat cannot be put on the table.
"Your Majesty, Commander Li also said that last night, Changsun Chong, Fang Yiai and Du He were beaten to a disability and thrown into a stinking ditch. If they were not discovered in time, they might die miserably in the stinking ditch. …”
Li Shimin: "???"
"Who did it?"
"Yes... His Highness the King of Yue!"
Li Shimin looked up at the ceiling and said angrily: "This traitor, what should I do if someone is killed?"
Wang De said quickly: "His Royal Highness the King of Yue cannot be entirely blamed for this matter. The King of Yue has a very good relationship with Tang Shanshi. When he saw that Tang Shanshi was seriously injured, he went out to take revenge on those three people..."
"How did the four families react to this matter?"
"Your Majesty, the four of them have learned the whole story, but no one has made any announcement. I'm afraid this matter will just go away."
"Hmph, this can only be done like this, but as the prince, the King of Yue did something extremely ridiculous. Let him go to the ancestral hall to receive the punishment..."
"yes……"
Li Shimin sat down on the futon behind the desk, his heart in a mess. There have been so many bad things recently, one after another...
Wang De left and returned, holding a bamboo tube in his hand, and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, the eight hundred miles coming from Liangzhou City is urgent."
Li Shimin stood up in confusion: "Open it quickly!"
Wang De quickly took the eight hundred miles out of the bamboo tube and handed it to Li Shimin. After Li Shimin opened it, he quickly looked at it.
After reading it, I burst out laughing.
The eight-hundred-mile urgent message came back from Li Jing. The 80,000-strong army led by Li Jing had arrived in Lanzhou. Tubo Songtsen Gampo immediately sent an envoy to Lanzhou to meet with Li Jing.
Songtsen Gampo said that he did not intend to invade the Tuyuhun territory and hoped that the Tang army would calm down and that they would immediately withdraw from the Tuyuhun territory and return it to the Tang Dynasty.
However, Songtsen Gampo once again asked Tian Khan to marry him as the king of the country, hoping to marry Tibet and Datang.
Good guy, why don’t you cry and complain about Fu Yun?
But, why did Tang Dynasty marry you and Tubo? Now I have the advantage!
There is also the situation in Liangzhou City, where the situation is more complicated. Even if the 30,000-strong army led by Qin Qiong arrived in Liangzhou City, the situation there did not change. The army was frequently mobilized to cruise near Yumen Pass.
The countries in the Western Regions seemed to have sensed the sense of crisis before the war, and all countries began to prepare for war. The Western Turks were even more active in the Western Regions, intending to draw the countries in the Western Regions into confrontation with the Tang Dynasty.
"Wang De, sent a message to the Duke of Qiao. From now on, he will lead the three troops of the Youxiao Guard and rush to Liangzhou City to assist Qin Qiong and Li Daliang and frighten the countries in the Western Regions and Xue Yantuo."
Duke Qiao is Li Shimin's brother-in-law Chai Shao and the husband of Princess Pingyang.
He was the commander-in-chief of the cavalry since he started the army in Jinyang. He followed Li Shimin to pacify the four directions. He was also an important minister in the Xuanwu Gate Revolution. He followed Li Jing to defeat the Eastern Turks and pacified the Liang division capital. He made great contributions. He was also one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion. .
Li Shimin asked Chai Shao to lead the troops to Liangzhou. I am afraid that the situation in Liangzhou is already very complicated.
"Wang De, there is news about Ke'er. Where is he now?"
"Your Majesty, I asked the messengers, but they said they didn't know."
Li Shimin complained: "At least I can reply to the letter and it will give me peace of mind. Li Jing does the same. The King of Shu is not sensible, so are you?"
However, Li Shimin really wronged Li Jing, and he had no idea where the King of Shu was now.
The King of Shu has disappeared since Didao County disappeared.
Outside Lanzhou City.
Li Jing stood in the tent. In the tent was hung a map of the northwest, including the entire Tuyuhun and part of Tubo.
"General, there is still no information about the King of Shu. Logically speaking, he set out from Didao County and climbed to Lanzhou..."
"General, could it be that the King of Shu crossed Lanzhou and went directly to Liangzhou City?"
Li Jing turned around and said calmly: "It is not impossible. According to the character of the King of Shu, it is impossible to stay in Longxi, let alone Lanzhou..."
"Before your departure, His Majesty told me to keep an eye on the King of Shu and not let him go to the front line. But Your Majesty can't even control his own son, so he asked me to take care of him. Isn't this a joke?"
"Why……"
"Send a small team to investigate again. If you find any information, report it to me immediately. He must not go to the front line."
Li Jing was also under a lot of pressure. When he set out, Li Shimin first talked to him, and then the Supreme Emperor came to threaten him, saying that if something happened to the King of Shu, he would tell Li Jing not to come back.
Then, Concubine Yang came to look for him again and asked him to advise the King of Shu not to go to dangerous places. Her daughter was even more ruthless. She looked for him three times, and each time she said that she must take good care of His Highness.
In the Tang Dynasty, he dared to cheat anyone, except the King of Shu. That was his son-in-law!
Under the snow-capped Qilian Mountains, a cavalry team of more than 300 people was galloping on the grassland at the foot of the mountain, protecting a young man riding a sweaty BMW.
"Your Highness, ahead is Wushao Ridge. After Wushao Ridge, we will reach Liangzhou City. It's about half a day's journey away."
Li Ke drove his sweaty horse and gave an order while galloping: "Take a short rest at Wushaoling and move into Liangzhou City before dark."
"What a great place, hahaha..."
Liangzhou City is an out-and-out melting pot. No matter who you are, you will be fused when you come to Liangzhou.
After everyone arrived at Wushaoling, they rested for a while and continued on their way. Finally, before dark, Li Ke stood in the distance, looking at Liangzhou City under the sunset. He felt inspired and plagiarized Wang Zhihuan's "Liangzhou Ci".
"Glow-in-the-dark cup of fine grape wine. If you want to drink, play the pipa immediately."
"Don't laugh, Lord, lying drunk on the battlefield. How many times have you fought in ancient times?"
Biquge
