Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 1026 The Chaos in the Hall
"Your Majesty, it is absolutely impossible!"

Fang Xuanling hurriedly spoke out to dissuade him.

Both father and son share the same philosophy, and they both believe that as they open up a more prosperous future, the influence of the Silk Road on land on Datang's wealth will become weaker and weaker, and even the status of the southeast coast will rise steadily. Gradually, it was equal to Guanzhong.

Because the benefits of sea trade are too huge!
In this case, how to maintain the stability of the Western Regions is more important than how to maintain the smooth flow of the Silk Road.Killing can never lead to real peace, Fang Xuanling is very clear about this, even if a hundred thousand troops advance to the Western Regions to destroy Kucha, Yanqi and other countries, it is just drinking poison to quench their thirst.After all, there is the Western Regions, the territory of the Hu people, and it will take a few years to recuperate and make a comeback!
His Majesty Li Er's face darkened, he stared at Fang Xuanling and said, "Why not? Kucha, Yanqi and other countries dare to despise the Great Tang Tianwei, if they can't retaliate with blood, who will submit to the Tang Dynasty in the future?"

Fang Xuanling painstakingly persuaded: "Think twice, Your Majesty! The countries in the Western Regions are only seeking benefits. There is no real difference between relying on the Tang Dynasty or taking refuge in the Turks. It is just who gives more benefits. The brewing and wool policy still won the attachment of most of the Hu people in the Western Regions. It was just because Guo Xiaoke insisted on going his own way and ignored the national policy of the imperial court, which led to the disappointment and dissatisfaction of a large number of tribes who raised goats and planted grapes. .According to the old ministers, it is only necessary to send a seasoned and prudent general to restart the plan of grape wine and 'shearing sheep', which will surely conquer the hearts of a large number of people in the Western Regions, and then repel the Xiongnu. If it is simply to end the war with war, it may provoke The barbarians in the Western Regions have the same hatred against the enemy, which is counterproductive!"

The "sheep shearing" project can perfectly conquer the hearts of all ethnic groups in the Western Regions. As long as the empire makes a certain promise during the restart, the barbarians in the Western Regions will definitely support Datang again.Even though the incident of Guo Xiaoke happened, in terms of credibility, most people in the Western Regions would still choose Datang between Datang and Turks.

Fang Xuanling firmly believed in this.

Changsun Wuji did not wait for His Majesty Li Er to speak before retorting: "Mr. Fang's words are wrong! The Hu people in the Western Regions are unruly and unruly. If they can't deal a severe blow, how can they know how to be afraid and submit? Besides, the imperial court has established a national policy earlier. , Later, Guo Xiaoke changed it without authorization, and now he changes it again, how can such changes be made to win people's trust?"

Fang Xuanling insisted: "I haven't tried it before, how do I know it won't work? Even if it really doesn't work after trying it, why not send troops to attack? Right now, the center of gravity of the imperial court is all in the east, and the troops are preparing to conquer Goguryeo. Suddenly sending troops to the Western Regions will inevitably lead to All the previous arrangements will be cancelled, not to mention the wasted manpower and material resources, how can I afford the time wasted?"

This sentence was said to His Majesty Li Er's heart, and his excited and feverish mind instantly sobered up, and he nodded again and again.

The conquest of Goguryeo is imperative and cannot be negotiated!

Goguryeo has been a tough nut to crack since ancient times. Otherwise, the former Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty would not have gone all out to conquer the country at the height of its power, and would have lost all his troops and would have returned without success.

With the current national strength of the Tang Dynasty, if one wants to conquer Goguryeo, one must go all out and strive to succeed in the first battle, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous!If you use troops against the Western Regions at this time, you will definitely see your elbows and lose sight of others.

Whether it is east or west, this has to be weighed repeatedly.

His Majesty Li Er couldn't make up his mind...

In the twelfth lunar month of the 14th year of Zhenguan, due to the rebellion of Qiuci, Yanqi and other countries, Guo Xiaoke, the governor of Anxi, was killed in battle.Above the temple, Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji, the two big bosses of the Political Affairs Hall and the right-hand men of His Majesty the Emperor, launched a rare war of violence, arguing over whether to use violence to control violence in the Western Regions or to be gentle.

There was fierce turmoil in the imperial court, and each side had many supporters, and each expounded its own reasoning around its own point of view, and no one could convince the other.

The root cause of such intense turmoil is not only the snatching of real interests, but also the accumulation and outbreak of conflicts over the years.

The Guanlong Group headed by Changsun Wuji is a staunch main combat faction, because once large-scale troops are used in the Western Regions, soldiers in Guanzhong must be recruited. These are the foundations of the Guanlong Group.Now the emperor is sparing no effort to suppress the Guanlong Group, and the Guanlong Group, which is struggling to deal with it, regards this as a good opportunity to break through.

As long as the rebellion in the Western Regions can be put down quickly, the Guanlong Group's voice will inevitably increase rapidly. No matter how domineering the emperor is, he can't take the meritorious ministers into action, right?People are beating people to death in the front, and you are copying people's hometown in the back?

The emperor is not like this...

And the rest of the forces above the court have been suppressed by the Guanlong Group over the years, and finally saw the emperor's firm determination to attack the Guanlong Group. How could they be willing to let the Guanlong Group rise again with the help of the rebellion in the Western Regions and take the initiative?
The conflict of interests in the officialdom is complex and complex, but simple is actually simple. If you don’t have Zhuge’s plan and Sima’s wisdom, then just remember one thing-everything your opponent agrees with, then you must oppose it!

*****
Fang Jun turned a deaf ear to the dispute between the court and China.

The so-called seeking his own government in his position, he is now Jing Zhaoyin, and he has a clear goal at this stage-to attack the Guanlong Group!Why bother to go to that muddy water?
As for the Guanlong Group's resurgence by sending troops to the Western Regions...

That is impossible.

If His Majesty Li Er really allowed the Guanlong Group to rise at this time, then he would not be able to sit in the current position of the King of the World.Even if troops are sent to the Western Regions, Li Ji and Cheng Yaojin are in the court, why must the generals of the Guanlong Group be in command?
"Master, do you think this gift list will work?"

Princess Gao Yang sat across from Fang Jun, lowered her head and carefully read the list of New Year's gifts submitted by the steward, and then used two whitewashed fingers to push it to Fang Jun on the table, and asked softly.

"Just whatever you want, if you're not sure, let Meiniang take a look."

Wu Meiniang is the best at dealing with this kind of human relationship, and she will never make mistakes.

Princess Gao Yang frowned, and said in displeasure: "You can't have snacks on family matters? Being Jing Zhao Yin who is as big as a sesame seed and mung bean is like becoming a prime minister, and you have to worry about state affairs?"

Wu Meiniang, who was sitting horizontally at the bottom, pursed her lips and smiled.

Princess Gao Yang glared at Wu Meiniang, threw the list in her hand to Wu Meiniang as if angry, and said angrily: "See? Your husband trusts you so much, you can handle this kind of thing yourself in the future, don't bother me again." !"

The countless names, close and distant relationships, and the types and quantities of gifts on the gift list made Princess Gao Yang dizzy for a while, how could she have the patience to deal with this!Anyway, Wu Meiniang was always responsible for such trivial matters. As a princess, she didn't have to worry about being robbed by a concubine, she just didn't bother to take care of it.

Wu Meiniang didn't refuse, she took it casually, glanced at it, and said in a soft voice: "Don't worry, Your Highness."

In the eyes of Princess Gao Yang, a messy and troublesome matter can be settled in Wu Meiniang's hands within minutes...

Where did Fang Jun care to read the list?
He is looking at the beauty...

Outside the window, the snow is fluttering, and the house is full of spring.

Princess Gaoyang is wearing a pleated dress with blue floral background today, and a pink colored satin beige covering her upper body. Her hair is covered with blue silk and emerald jewels, and her face is pure and beautiful like a girl.

Wu Mei Niang is another style.

There was a long crimson dress with a skirt that dragged to the floor, and a light-colored sweat towel was tied around her waist, making her waist look more and more slender.Ruyun Qingsi combed a slanted ponytail, two pearl earrings adorned her crystal-clear jade earlobes, a little cinnabar between her eyebrows, her delicate face was more beautiful than flowers, and her half-baked charm flowed out.

Fang Jun was eager to move, licked his lips, and suggested: "Today, the auspicious snow is dancing, if you can be in the soup spring and drink the jade liquid of grapes, wouldn't it be better than the gods in the sky?"

Wu Meiniang's eyes fluttered, and she seemed a little moved.

Princess Gao Yang rolled her eyes, and said coquettishly: "If you want to lead Mei Niang, why drag me? I won't mess around with you..."

A few days ago, Fang Jun, who was raised up, had a big quilt to sleep together, and His Highness Gao Yang hurt his self-esteem a little.Needless to say, Fang Jun is fierce and fierce, Wu Meiniang is also quite powerful as a soldier, but she is completely weak after a few rounds and has no strength to fight anymore, which made Fang Jun laugh.

It's a bit embarrassing...
