Chapter 458: Daughter Red


Of course, Li Mu didn't want to be a saint, and forcing Li Shimin to send troops to fight was Li Mu's purpose.

Li Mu knew that Tubo was now fledgling, and Songtsan Gampo had no intention of fighting a decisive battle with the Tang Dynasty.

The biggest intention of committing a border this time is to test Datang's attitude and strength, of course, bringing back a princess is an additional gain.

It's funny to say that he plundered the wealth of Songzhou and Hongzhou, and then took a small part of it and let the envoy take it to Chang'an, which is called tribute.

And the meat eaters of the court apparently agreed with the word "tribute".

Therefore, Li Mushang forced Li Shimin to send troops, and also had the intention of disgusting Li Shimin.

When Li Shimin saw Li Mu's soothing, his face was so gloomy that he was about to drip water.

Without saying a word, he threw the fold to Yuan Renguo.

Yuan Renguo picked it up and looked at it, his face turned pale, and he didn't dare to read it.

Li Shimin patted the dragon case and said: "There is nothing to hide, read." ” Yuan Renguo read in a trembling voice: "The minister wept and heard that the 200,000 army of Tubo invaded my border, and actually used this to coerce the princess of the imperial court, Her Majesty the Holy Monarch, should follow the example of Yao Shunyu Tang, learn from the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, and commit a strong man, although he is far away, he will be punished for not getting along, not paying compensation, not cutting the land, not paying tribute, the Son of Heaven guarding the country, the king is dead, I am the lord of China, how can I be humiliated by the alliance under the city If Your Majesty allows it, the minister is willing to lead the warriors under his command as the vanguard, and fight with the Tubo blood to the last person, and die without regrets." ” Amazing.

Above the court, all the civil and military ministers were silent.

Even lords and ministers like the eldest grandson Wuji were silent.

No one accused Li Mu of being disrespectful.

This is a letter of advice, and all those who follow the edicts, such as the impeachment of the imperial history, will say that three points are ten points, so as to attract the attention of the monarch.

Li Mu is admonishing, although the words are a little more intense, the meaning is clear, and there is nothing wrong with it.

Above the court, there are some things that can be done but not said clearly, if you say it through, you must do it according to the rules, this is an immutable law.

Just like a corrupt official, no matter how much you are greedy, as long as you are not stabbed, you can live in peace.

But if you break it, you'll have to accept your fate.

At this time, it was so clearly broken by Li Mu.

Everyone has to do it according to the rules.

Even if the eldest grandson Wuji is unwilling, he does not dare to advocate peace at this time.

Fang Xuanling was the first to change, he walked out of the queue and said: "King Wu's performance is deafening, and the minister pleads guilty to His Majesty for his previous ignorance." ” After him, countless officials walked out of the queue to second.

Even if Li Shimin hated Li Mu so much in his heart, he couldn't let out his anger.

He knew that Li Mu was not asking for war, but forcing the palace.

Li Shimin naturally couldn't really let Li Mu fight, and if he made war exploits, then his reputation would be even higher.

On the same day, Li Shimin complied with the unanimous advice of his ministers, and led 80,000 infantry and cavalry to attack Tibet, with Li Yi, the general of Shence Wei, as the head of the march of Bailandao, the general of Zuo Wuwei, Niu Jinda, as the head of the march of the Kuoshui Road, and Liu Jian, the general of the left leading army, as the head of the march of Taohe Road.

The result was as Li Mu expected.

A month later, Li Yi attacked the fortress west of Songzhou with 10,000 Shence cavalry and broke the 30,000-strong army of Tubo.

After 1,600 people were captured, and 3,000 were killed and wounded.

Songtsen Gampo was terrified and immediately withdrew his troops.

What is funny is that after the withdrawal of the troops from Tibet, Songtsen Gampo sent people to Chang'an for the third time to ask Li Shimin for marriage.

It was as if the devil was stunned.

Li Shimin has already won the victory on the battlefield, how can he promise to Tibet again As a result, Songtsen Gampo's marriage proposal was rejected again.

And Li Mu's twist and turn was praised by the subjects of Chang'an and widely spread.

This made the people of insight in the court secretly have an expectation in their hearts.

With another victory in the war, the civil unrest in the Tang Dynasty was quelled.

Gradually, the imperial court bank cashed out the people's deposits.

The people's resentment against the emperor and the court gradually dissipated.

But the smell of tens of thousands of people's blood still wafted over the Central Plains.

As a result, the people spontaneously resisted the imperial court.

Of course, if there is no family bank, then people who are already accustomed to the convenience of money houses may not be able to resist the imperial court.

But there is another option, and then the boycott becomes inevitable.

Because of the reserves and advance preparations, although the family money was run, it did not cause a civil uprising.

This made the imperial court lose the excuse to punish the family's money bank.

Therefore, after the elimination of one and the other, the family money bank almost covered more than seventy percent of Datang's money bank business.

This made Li Shimin have to release Han Zhongliang, reinstate the official, and reinstate the Ministry of Civil Affairs and take charge of the imperial court.

On the day he was released from prison, Han Zhongliang asked Li Shimin to go to Hangzhou and ask Li Mu about Qianzhuang.

Li Shimin agreed, but after the dispersal of the dynasty, Han Zhongliang stayed in Chengqing Hall for a long time.

In fact, at this time, Li Shimin naturally understood Li Mu's sinister intentions.

Although the Saga Bank was also run on, the Saga Bank did not lose much, but drew the greatest benefit and share from this run.

If this wasn't Li Mu's deliberate arrangement, it would be a hell of a thing.

Li Shimin is really jealous of Li Mu's ability, he doesn't know how many hole cards Li Mu still has in his hand.

But Li Shimin has no evidence, so naturally he can't easily move a candidate who has just made great achievements and has tens of thousands of troops in his hands.

Like Li Mu, Li Shimin is also waiting for an opportunity.

In Li Shimin's view, time is on his side, after all, he has hundreds of states in his hands, and Li Mu only has two states.

After a long time, it is self-evident who wins and who loses.

But from this matter, Li Shimin also clearly realized that the only person he can really rely on is his brother-in-law, eldest grandson Wuji.

Therefore, as long as it was the advice of the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Shimin would follow it, and his grace reached the point of no return.

The eldest grandson Wuji did not win a higher title and official position for himself because of Li Shimin's favor to him.

On the contrary, he appears more easy-going and humble in front of his colleagues.

He strongly recommended Li Yi in the court.

So, Li Shimin decreed that because of the merits of Songzhou, Li Yi was canonized as the prince of Pengcheng County.

Thirteen-year-old Li Yi became the youngest county prince in the Tang Dynasty except for the royal family.

Promoted nine levels in a year, I'm afraid only Ma Zhou can compare with it.

The eyes of the officials are bright, Li Mu's fall from grace and Li Yi's favor can clearly see the trade-offs in the emperor's heart.

As a result, Li Yi was praised to the sky by the ministers.

The so-called peach is reciprocated.

Li Yi gradually stopped resisting the eldest grandson Wuji, and gradually became closer to him.

This is incomprehensible to everyone.

Even the Yang family often questioned Li Yi because of this.

The old people in Lijiazhuang often complained.

Until one day, thousands of people gathered together and went south to join Li Mu
