Chapter 383 Longyou Earthquake
Qin Qiong looked at the current situation in the Western Turks, and the current Western Turks brigade of troops continued to enter the territory of the Eastern Turks.
Faced with the attack of the Tubo people in the south of the Western Turks, some soldiers and horses left behind in the Western Turks were always dealing with the Tubo people.
It seemed that Tubo had revenge, which seemed to be unstoppable, and entered the territory of the Western Turks.
However, Qin Qiong, who has been paying attention to the situation in the Western Turks, could see that the purpose of the Western Turks was not Tubo.
Even when Songtsen Gampo and Lu Dongzan advanced all the way, the Western Turks suffered little casualties.
Many places have given up directly.
Instead, one or two thousand soldiers were left to deal with Songtsen Gampo. Even if he gave up some not-so-important territories, it would not hurt the Western Turks.
Instead, it can better gather the army and plan to attack the Eastern Turks.
Taking over the fertile pastures of the Eastern Turks is more beneficial to the Western Turks.
Moreover, the small battles with Tubo have used the strategy of stealing the wrongs and fighting far and near.
Even in the distant Persia, there were envoys from the Western Turks lobbying for union.
The entire Western battlefield seemed to be spreading in front of me. Qin Qiong looked at the map hanging on the wall, wondering who was the master who was guiding the Western Turks.
If the Western Turks had dared to go to war together like this, they might have been destroyed long ago.
Li Yifu recorded what Li Zheng said, and the contents of the letter were for silent snoring.
Li Zheng checked and handed it to Li Yifu instructed: "Let someone rush to send it to Mo'u's hands, and then we have to deal with the great counterattack of Zheng's power. This counterattack by the Eastern Turks will be very fierce."
"Understood."
Li Yifu hurriedly left with the letter.
Chang'an is very hot in June. Li Zheng sat under the tree and planned to take a nap and waited for Dahu's lamb kebab to be grilled.
Li Tai hurriedly came and asked, "Li Zheng, will the incident of Dilong turning over really happen?"
"It should be."
After Li Zheng said that, he took a sip of tea.
"Should? You should know that if this happens, how many people in the court will impeach you and confuse the public."
Dahu came with a few mutton skewers, "The mutton skewers are already cooked."
Li Zheng took the mutton skewers and handed it to Li Tai.
Li Tai said while eating the mutton skewers: "Li Zheng, do you know? Recently, Tubo suddenly tried his best to fight the Western Turks back."
"I heard it." Li Zheng tasted Dahu's lamb skewers. Dahu's craftsmanship has grown rapidly, and the craftsmanship of roasted lamb skewers has become better and better.
Li Tai whispered again: "I don't know where Tubo came from our Tang Dynasty's weapons. After having the weapons and food, Songtsen Gampo brought back all the previous land and had to pay the blood debt of the Western Turks."
Li Zheng nodded, "I think Songzan Gampo is also a person with temperament. He does a good job. Let's fight. The more lively the fight, the better."
Li Tai continued: "Li Zheng, I heard that someone sold 100,000 stones of grain to Tubo."
"Is that true?" Li Zheng took a sip of tea and then ate the mutton skewers.
Li Tai whispered: "You must not have done this."
Li Zheng smiled heartily, "What kind of words does Your Highness King Wei say? When did I say this?"
Li Tai continued: "The 100,000 troops of the Western Turks attacked the Eastern Turks. Now there are wars on both sides of the southeast of the Western Turks. Do you think the Western Turks are nothing more than that? How can there be such a war?"
Li Zheng thought for a while and said, "Maybe I really don't want to pass it, okay."
Li Tai looked at Li Zheng's expression and was somewhat suspicious whether all these things were done by Li Zheng.
The atmosphere became quiet again, and Li Tai was also lying under the tree, looking like he wanted to have a nap, but suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Li Zheng, the prince is going to get married next year."
Li Zheng nodded slightly, "I know."
Li Tai said again: "I'm almost adult."
"Then what?"
"I'm going to get married when I get an adult."
"Um."
"I will leave Chang'an when I become an adult."
Li Tai's voice was a little lonely.
Li Zheng opened his eyes and looked at Li Tai's expression and asked, "Leave Chang'an?"
"Yes, the prince will go to the fiefdom after he becomes an adult."
"Have you not Your Highness the King of Shu been in Chang'an all the time?"
"I have military affairs, so of course I can stay. I don't have military affairs."
Li Zheng whispered: "Your father probably doesn't like his son leaving Chang'an, how could he say you are also a legitimate son?"
"Precisely because I am the legitimate son, the King of Shu is not the legitimate son, but I am the legitimate son. Although I don't know what my father is thinking, once I become an adult, there will definitely be court officials in the court who hope that I will leave Chang'an, so that the people in the court can be at peace."
It is indeed a very taboo thing for the prince to seek a throne.
For example, Your Majesty has a criminal record now.
I definitely don't want the old thing to happen again.
Another Xuanwu Gate Incident was something that Li Shimin or court officials didn't want to see.
Li Zheng whispered: "Your Highness King of Wei, have your plots compiled?"
Li Tai looked at the leaves on the branches and said, "It's almost done."
Li Zheng said again: "It will take three to five years no matter how fast it is."
Li Tai heard some clues.
Li Zheng yawned and said, "Guodizhi is a book that your father asked you to compile, so you can't neglect it."
"Yes!" Li Tai stood up as enlightened, "I want to compile the Kuodizhi. This is what my father gave me to do. If I leave Chang'an and have no help from the ministers in the court, how can I compile the Kuodizhi?"
"Then it won't be affected if you take those ministers away."
Li Tai grinned and said, "Many classics are in the palace. I want to proofread them from time to time. It is not that simple to compilation of geography."
Li Zheng said weakly: "That's true."
Li Tai nodded and thought about it the more he felt that this idea was good. "I will first replace all the officials who compiled the geography and included my confidants. I will delay as long as I want."
"What if your father planned to compile the landmarks another person?"
Li Tai said calmly: "Do you really think I am easy to bully?"
"Oh, Your Highness, the King of Wei, should leave Chang'an, stop making trouble, and eat and drink freely with me all day long."
"Ha, I want me to leave, you Li Zheng is so beautiful."
Li Tai seemed to have hope in his life and found a new direction. "I will arrange it first and stay here! I am so smart to stay here to compile the landmarks."
Seeing that Li Zheng turned over and ignored him, Li Tai took two more mutton skewers and left leisurely.
Until late June, the war between the Western Turks and the Eastern Turks became increasingly intense.
There is still no earthquake in Longyou.
Gradually, some people concluded that what Li Zheng was saying was a rumor and a witch that confuses the public.
Some people kept writing memorials to Ganlu Palace to impeach Li Zheng.
Yuchi Gong brought the 30,000 troops back from the Hexi Corridor and had arrived in Longyou and was almost in Chang'an.
Not long after I arrived at the Longyou area, the wind was calm, but suddenly it started to shake the earth.
The war horses were neighing and running around, and the marching brigade was in chaos for a while.
Even Yuchi Gong turned over and fell off his horse.
He stood up in a panic, and Yuchi Gong shouted loudly: "I'm telling the whole army not to run around!"
The earthquake didn't last long, only half a stick of incense.
Chapter completed!
