Chapter 359 Here comes trouble

Tuyuhun royal court

Two letters from the imperial court were also sent at the same time. One was to the Governor's Mansion, and the other was to Midu Khan. They both said one thing, that is, Wei Wang Li Tai was going to Tuyuhun for inspection. .

For Midu Khan, not to mention how depressed he was. Originally this was our own place and no one else was in charge of things. Now we are doing well in the exams. There are many emperors above us. We originally thought that there was only one emperor. Lord Hu, who knew that Li Xiang also came, and then General Qin Qiong came, and now there is another King of Wei.

For Midu Khan, these people are all people he cannot afford to offend. No one has a higher status than himself. Who asked us to rely on others now? What's more, if Datang had not extended a helping hand, Tuyuhun might have been Tubo was destroyed, so no matter how many emperors came, he had to greet them with a smile, otherwise the Tang Dynasty might fall out. The monarchs of small countries are so sad. Although they are also called monarchs, they are not the same as those of the Tang Dynasty. Local officials are almost the same.

Although he didn't think that much, Lord Protector Zeng did.

In his opinion, what kind of operation is this made by the imperial court?

It is actually a very normal thing for the imperial court to send royal children to inspect the subject countries. It has happened in all dynasties. On the one hand, it is to strengthen the connection between the imperial court and the subject countries, and on the other hand, it is to train the royal children so that they will not change in the capital. Become a waste.

But does Tuyuhun need so many royal children to patrol? There is an emperor's grandson here. Li Xiang is the third most important person in the royal family, second only to Li Shimin and Li Chengqian. He is already staying here. If other royal children are sent here, does that mean that What about the distrust of Li Xiang?

Another thing is that it is not good for the royal children sent here. Li Xiang is the third person in the royal family. Although the person who comes is his uncle, according to the court legislation, the ranking of Wei King Li Tai is behind Li Xiang. , the uncle faces his nephew alone, how should he salute at that time?

So when he received this letter, Mr. Zeng was quite surprised. He didn't understand what was going on. Could it be that he had been negligent in his work? But even if this is the case, the court will not do this kind of operation, right?

"General, I know very little about the Emperor. The General and the Emperor have a close relationship. This..."

In desperation, Mr. Zeng could only go to Qin Qiong's tent. Fortunately, Qin Qiong had not returned to Liangzhou City. If he had gone back, Mr. Zeng would not be able to find anyone to answer his questions. There were several people on the grassland who were familiar with Li Shimin. Well, you can't go to Li Xiang and ask.

"Master Protector, I have great admiration and admiration for the emperor. How can you know what the old man is thinking? Anyway, it's only half a month. You can accompany him on a tour to see what His Highness the King of Wei likes, and then you Let’s look at the arrangements. Isn’t that the end? It may not be as much as you think.”

Qin Qiong smiled bitterly, "You come to ask me this matter so carelessly. If I say that I have a good relationship with the emperor, I will be criticized by the censor after I go back. Do you think this is a small matter?" It might be a disaster caused by confiscation of the house and the destruction of the family, so he couldn't say it directly, but Master Zeng had a good relationship with him, so he could only use such language to remind him.

Mr. Zeng was an official in the court and had always been very smart. It was just that he was a little confused when he first received this letter. Now after listening to Qin Qiong’s advice, he immediately knew what to do. He was really sick. In a hurry to seek medical treatment, I said all the things I shouldn't have said. Fortunately, this is the Tuyuhun grassland. If you were in Chang'an City, if you were so careless and said these words to an important minister's house, people would think you were going to harm them.

"I was reckless, and I hope the general will forgive me."

After Master Zeng figured this out, he quickly saluted General Qin Qiong. Although the relationship between the two was good, such misunderstandings could not arise, otherwise they would be political enemies in the court in the future.

"Master Protector, what are you doing? You and I have known each other for so many years, how can I still not know what's going on in your heart? It's just that you were a little anxious just now, and that doesn't matter, but if you meet me next time For this kind of thing, it’s best to go around twice more.”

Hearing Qin Qiong's words, Mr. Zeng was moved to tears. Fortunately, he didn't take this matter seriously. If he had taken it to heart, the two sides would have been enemies now. Although Qin Qiong has not How can I ask about the affairs of the court and focus on teaching my son at home? But if I really remember it, there are many good friends and brothers in the army. Isn't it easy to give Mr. Zeng some eye drops?

"Are you two going out for exercise? Why do you have to run two laps?"

Li Xiang strode in from outside. He didn't know anything about the court affairs yet. He was ready to leave today.

The Tubo side still couldn't do without him, he had to go in and maintain balance. Although Xiaoliuzi wrote two letters a day, the transmission between the two places also took time, which was far less safe than Li Xiang sitting in the official village of Magi Tusi. .

"I was joking with Lord Protector just now. There is news from the court today. Take a look."

Qin Qiong knows what Li Xiang went out to do just now? He definitely didn't know the news from the court, so he put the envelope in his hand to Li Xiang. Li Xiang understood what was going on when he saw it. It must be that his grandfather was being petty again, but it didn't matter. , Li Tai is willing to walk around the grassland twice, just to inspect his own grassland. We are going to the plateau today anyway, and the two of us can't meet each other.

"My second uncle is coming. If I had known that this would be the case, I should have stayed here to have a drink with him. However, the military situation is urgent. Since I have confirmed my itinerary today, I'd better hurry up and get on the road. I'll leave it to Master Zeng. "

Li Xiang's answer was quite satisfactory, with no flaws at all. Qin Qiong next to him also gave a thumbs up in his mind. Could this be a sixteen-year-old child? I didn't have such a state of mind when I was sixteen. When Li Xiang was sixteen, he had already opened up territory for the Tang Dynasty. No matter it was his uncle or his brothers, no one was stronger than him. Maybe this He is the wise king of the Tang Dynasty.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, all the supplies here have been prepared and are just waiting for His Highness's orders."

Mr. Zeng is still very reliable in doing things and never discounts the tasks assigned by Li Xiang...
