Chapter 434: The Heart of a Child
Li Er looked at the frightened ministers in the court, which made him a little helpless. Even he was still worried now. With the strength of the Tang Dynasty, the 400,000 Turkic troops could not resist the Turkic cavalry that had always been the best in the world.
Li Er was silent for a moment, looked at Li Jing and said, "Pharmacist, how many days do you think the Turkic people need to reach Chang'an?"
"Xiaoguan is only 700 miles away from Chang'an, and it is too close to Chang'an." Li Jing said helplessly: "As long as you break through Xiaoguan and enter Guanzhong, with the speed of the Turkic Iron Cavalry, the forward may be able to reach Chang'an from Xiaoguan within five days."
"In five days, I can't make any defense at all, and I don't have to hurry to even mobilize troops from other places." All the court officials thought about the time and shook their heads.
"If you can't do it, you can only move the capital." The staff member who was cut off his hair last time came forward and suggested.
Fang Xuanling shook his head quickly and said, "The time is too short, and it is too late to move the capital. Unless all the people are lost, only officials are evacuated. If this is done, it will be the Tang Dynasty that will directly lose the people's hearts and most of the land in Guanzhong. If the Turks pursue it closely, it will become a great escape, and the country may fall into a full-scale war."
Changsun Wuji looked heavy and said slowly: "If you cannot move the capital, you will lose the people's hearts and Guanzhong. The Turks occupied a large area of land in Guanzhong. They had a base, looked down on the Central Plains, and attacked from all directions, which was the end of the country's destruction."
After hearing this, all the court officials changed their faces drastically. They could now imagine the scene of the Turkic iron hooves burning, killing and looting on the Central Plains.
"If you can't do it, just give more food, gold, silver and jewelry, and then send princesses to kiss you. Maybe the Turks will go back." Some staff members listed their suggestions one by one according to the traditional solutions.
Many ministers felt that according to the old ways of their ancestors, they might be able to resolve this crisis. Anyway, marriage is not about letting their daughters marry. As long as the Turks leave, they are still high-ranking officials of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Er listened to the ministers' actions, his face was gloomy and he wanted to execute all of these people angrily.
Seeing Li Er's gloomy face, Changsun Wuji stood up and said, "Actually, this matter is not complicated to solve. As long as he is willing to help, he can easily solve the Turks."
"Who! Can we solve the problems we all solve!" The court officials were talking, not understanding the so-called.
Li Er nodded and said helplessly: "I know he can solve it, but I don't want to waste the last thing he promised."
"Who! Get him here quickly and deal with the Turks who are like wolves!" The court officials urged them one after another.
"Li Yu!" Li Er just said two words.
After everyone's eyes lit up after hearing this, they could solve this crisis, and it was really only that rogue guy.
The white-faced Yingda took off the list and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty! Then issue an edict quickly and let him entrust the edict!"
Li Er turned his head and looked at Kong Yingda who had defected from the prince's camp and said, "Do you think it can easily deal with the Turkic people. Can I direct him?"
Kong Yingda said bluntly: "Is he Li Yu not a citizen of the Tang Dynasty? Shouldn't he fight bravely to fight the enemy?"
"Pediatric? Since he, Li Yu, can solve the Turks, we will not be the same." Du Ruhai sneered.
"Does Li Yu dare not be summoned and he plans to be a traitor?" Kong Yingda twisted his neck and asked.
"Hahaha..." Du Ruhai laughed and said, "What do we think in Yang Guang's eyes?"
"Of course I am a traitor." Kong Yingda said with confidence.
"Do you know we are traitors?" Du Ruhai smiled and turned back to the train.
Kong Yingda quickly shut up and said nothing.
The court officials ignored Kong Yingda, who had lost face, and stood there waiting for Li Er's decision.
"Scatter the court!" Li Er shouted loudly.
Li Er returned to Chengqian Palace and saw Changsun sitting in the garden in a daze. He walked over and asked, "You are now the mother of Guanyin Monument, why can't I see you happy?"
"It's nothing, maybe I can't adapt to the identity change for a while!" Changsun said insincerely.
Li Er felt that since he became the prince, there seemed to be a layer of film between him and Changsun, which was less affection, but he didn't care at all. Now there were a lot of beauties in the palace, and he was waiting for him to favor that. The queen was not jealous. Now he was even more unscrupulous and stayed in other concubines' wombs.
Changsun felt that since Li Er succeeded to the throne, his power has expanded rapidly and he has become more and more indifferent to family affection. At the same time, she felt that she didn't seem to care anymore, as if the people she cared for and cared for were also transferring to another person.
Seeing that she was absent-minded, Li Er said, "This time the entire Turkic tribe was dispatched, and 400,000 troops were used. Do you know?"
After hearing Li Er's words, Changsun realized that he asked him to ask Li Yu for help. She was silent for a while and said slowly: "I know, I still know that you have not removed the title of the third sister to date. The third sister probably won't be happy. Li Yu's trust in you should have dropped to freezing point, right?"
After saying that, Changsun looked straight at Li Er to see how he explained.
"I'm afraid that the people in the world will say that I'm ungrateful and remove the title of Princess, the third sister who has outstanding military achievements, so I betrayed my promise." Li Er told the truth.
"Why can the third sister marry into the Li family safely without removing the title? Could it be that your younger brother let your elder sister follow him without any name?" Changsun asked back.
"I have no choice but to feel sorry for my third sister." Li Er had no choice but to do anything.
"Then do you think your third sister will help you this time?" Changsun was a little speechless.
However, Li Er smiled and said, "Don't worry! I know my third sister's personality best. I guess she is more anxious than anyone else now."
"Hey! The third sister helped Datang without regrets. What did Datang give her? I think it hurt her heart again and again." She stood up for Li Xiuning.
"There is no way to do this. Since as a royal princess, I should be prepared to sacrifice for the country." Li Er said: "How many princesses in history have left the Central Plains and married foreign tribes and died in a foreign land? My third sister just has no recognition of marriage on the surface."
Changsun’s family, Zou Zou browed and said, “Even if the third sister doesn’t say it, how can I tell Li Yu?”
Li Er waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about this. He owes me a promise. This is the time to repay my promise."
Changsun didn't want to say anything else, so he sighed and said, "Okay! I'll go to the villa right now and let him exchange his promise."
Li Er waved his hand and said, "You go now! I'll listen to your good news in the palace."
Changsun stood up and walked a few steps, saying, "I hope he has fulfilled his promise and helped us solve this crisis. I hope my second brother can fulfill his promise, otherwise he will be more terrible than the Turks."
When Li Er saw Changsun leaving, he was shocked and sweated in a cold sweat after considering her words. If there was no bondage of family affection, would the third sister still care about her? She might be able to lose her throne by turning her hands.
...
Li Yu saw Li Xiuning and her maids performing war chess for a long time, and failed again and again. Only when the Turks go back themselves can the crisis end.
Li Yu looked at the result of their deduction and reminded Li Yu of the Weishui Alliance in history.
After Li Er ascended the throne and became emperor after the Xuanwu Gate, Jie Li even led an army of 200,000 to the Guanzhong and rushed to the north bank of the Wei River in Chang'an City.
Finally, Li Er and Jie Li signed the city alliance and lost a lot of money, so the beauty asked Jie Li to retreat.
The Weishui Alliance signed by Li Er and Jie Li Khan was a little better than the treason agreement of the Qing Dynasty in later generations. Of course, it was far from being a step to lose power and humiliation. It was agreed to pay tribute every year, which was considered to be a return to the Turks.
At that time, the Turks directly attacked the Wei River, which was only forty miles away from Chang'an City. If Li Er had not set up a suspicious plan of military affairs and personally led Gao Shilian, Fang Xuanling and other six people to talk to Jie Li across the Wei River, and angrily scolded Jie Li. The two Khans of Tuli broke the agreement. In addition, Jie Li and Tuli had deep conflicts. There was a tendency of division within the Turks, which was the reason why Jie Li retreated helplessly. It may be difficult to say whether there was Li Er's Zhenguan prosperous era.
Li Yu glanced at Changsun's family who came over and knew that it was time for her to fulfill her promise. He waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "No need to deduce it anymore. Begin to prepare to order troops on the battlefield. This time, the Turkic tribe was defeated at one time and eliminate the consequences of the Chinese people forever."
"Master, are you really going to send the imperial troops out?" Li Xiuning jumped up excitedly.
Seeing her excited look, Li Yu asked back: "You are sincerely helping Datang. How did Datang treat you?"
"I don't care. As long as our Chinese people can live and work in peace, my personal grievances are nothing!" Li Xiuning's words were sonorous and powerful.
Li Yu was greatly moved by her innocent heart. He walked over and pulled her little hand and said, "As long as you are happy in your heart."
"I'm happy, aren't you there to accompany me?" Li Xiuning said this and said, "Master, when will we send troops?"
Li Yu was stunned for a moment and laughed. He felt that the woman was always in a hurry and said with a smile: "The space has been developing for several decades after the last war, and it's time for the soldiers of the empire to show up."
Li Xiuning suddenly stared at the apricot and said, "Master, when will you let me in and see the changes in the space?"
When Li Yu saw her unruly temperament, he sneered and said, "It's enough to wait until the three-year period expires."
Li Xiuning patted her forehead and said, "Oh my God! Three years have passed a few months, and I have forgotten all the busy things in the palace."
"Then go! Don't be surprised if you don't get your mouth closed." Li Yu smiled.
Li Yu asked Xiaoling to remove Li Xiuning from entering the space.
As soon as he was lifted, Li Xiuning and her maid disappeared.
"Fifth Niang! Go and open the door and welcome our queen!" Li Yu looked at Changsun, who was about to come in, and deliberately shouted.
"I think you did it on purpose. You clearly saw me, why are you still shouting?" Changsun's words were filled with complaints, but there was a smile on his face.
Li Yu did not respond, but laughed: "Does that guy plan to use a promise?"
Changsun rolled his eyes and said, "If you know, you still ask?"
Li Yu smiled and said with a smile: "Then let's talk about the current situation of the Turks?"
Changsun nodded slightly.
