Chapter 853
When Liu Rengui broke Jincheng, Jin Chunqiu, who commanded troops outside Jincheng, also immediately surrendered. This not only means that Jincheng has been broken, but also means that Silla has perished, and Silla finally perished after Baekje and Goguryeo.

With the subjugation of Silla, all the three Koreans on the peninsula have been wiped out, and the war on the battlefield of the three Koreans has gradually subsided, and the Eastern Expedition of the Tang Dynasty has also declared a great victory.

In the second year of Longshuo, autumn, early August.

After nearly a month, Silla was destroyed, and the urgent battle report of Tang Junbing's decision to settle Sanhan was finally transmitted from the Liaodong battlefield back to Chang'an, and passed to Li Ke's hands.

In Daming Palace and Zichen Palace, Li Ke was holding the battle report sent from Liaodong in his hand, and the smile on his face was getting heavier.

"San Lang has been smiling since he took the battle report sent from Liaodong, but there is another victory report?" Beside Li Ke, Empress Wu Meiniang asked Li Ke while watching Li Ke's actions.

Li Ke raised the victory report in Yang's hand, handed it to Wu Meiniang, and said: "Meiniang is right, it is the battle report from Liaodong. Luo has become my land of the Tang Dynasty."

Wu Meiniang heard the words, glanced at the battle report handed over by Li Ke, and then saluted and congratulated: "I, the generals of the Tang Dynasty, conquered a great victory in the east. After Baekje and Goguryeo, we settled Silla, completely settled Sanhan, and finally tasted Sanlang's long-cherished wish. Meiniang congratulates Saburo."

As Li Ke's bedside person and the empress of the Tang Dynasty, no one knows how much Li Ke cares about the outcome of the Eastern Expedition than Wu Meiniang. It was because of the knot in Li Ke's heart.

Li Ke's grandfather, the former Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, and Li Ke's biological father, the late emperor Li Shimin, all failed in Liaodong and returned with many regrets. Now that the Tang army finally wiped out Sanhan, Li Ke not only avenged his country, but With family grudges over, Li Ke also confessed to Li Shimin, whom he respected very much.

Li Ke said with a smile: "Meiniang is right, but not complete. The reason why I am so happy is not only because of the great victory in the Eastern Expedition, but also because the person who won the last victory for me in Tang Dynasty is Qinling. Qinling commanded the troops in Jincheng, so he completely devoted his heart to my Tang Dynasty, and from then on, my Tang Dynasty gained another handsome talent."

For Li Ke, the victory of the Eastern Expedition was only a matter of time. What Li Ke cared about was the future. Since then, Qinling has been a general of the Tang Dynasty.Tubo lost its Great Wall, and the Tang Dynasty gained a sharp sword. As one fades away, Li Ke has a little more confidence in the future Western Expedition.

What's more, in this battle, Li Ke won not only a Qinling, but also a black-toothed Changzhi. In this way, the senior generals of the Tang army include Li Ji and Su Dingfang, and the middle-aged generals include Pei Xingjian, Su Dingfang, etc. Xue Rengui, the younger generation includes Qinling, Heizhi Changzhi and Wang Fangyi, etc. Datang will not be short of famous generals in at least the next 50 years, and Li Ke has enough confidence to implement his plan.

Wu Meiniang knew how much Li Ke valued Qin Ling, she listened to Li Ke's words, and said with a smile: "Qin Ling's cub has been trained by Saburo for several years, and now he has finally returned to the cage after the battle in Liaodong. But the identity of this Qinling boy is special after all, it would be a pity if only Sanlang was happy about this matter."

It was not difficult for Li Ke to guess what Wu Meiniang meant, and asked, "Meiniang is talking about Tubo?"

Wu Meiniang said: "Qinling is the son of Lu Dongzan, and Lu Dongzan is the great chancellor of Tubo who is praised and respected by the abandoned sect, and has always been regarded by Saburo as a confidant's trouble. Wouldn't it be beautiful if he could use this to provoke discord between Tubo monarchs and ministers?" thing?"

Li Ke said: "Qinling is the son of Lu Dongzan. Qinling fought for our Tang Dynasty and broke the Jincheng. Once the news spreads to Tubo, abandoning the sect to praise him will definitely be angry. The rift between the monarch and his ministers is inevitable."

Wu Meiniang said: "It's true that Tubo Lords are at odds with each other, but it's not enough. It would be a pity if such a good opportunity is only to provoke discord, but not hurt."

When Li Ke heard the words, he suddenly became interested, and said to Wu Meiniang: "Speak carefully and listen."

Wu Meiniang said: "Isn't it true that Qizong Nongzan has always wanted to marry a daughter of the clan, but Sanlang never agreed? Why didn't Sanlang bestow a marriage on Qinling, give Qinling an official title, and marry the daughter of the clan to Qinling. Once Zan knows the news, he will be furious, and there will be chaos in Tubo."

It has not been a day or two since Tubo Zanpu Qizong Nongzan wanted to marry a daughter of the Tang clan, but Li Ke has always stopped him and failed.

Regarding the matter of not being able to marry the daughter of the Tang clan, Qizong Nongzan has always been brooding about it. For something that has never been done, the face of Qi Zong's praise is probably extremely ugly.

While listening to Wu Meiniang's words, Li Ke said with a smile on his face: "The reason why Tubo was able to rise to the plateau in a short period of ten years, rule the roost, and become my confidant enemy in the Tang Dynasty, all it relies on is If Qi Zong Nongzan and Lu Dongzan take this opportunity to drive a wedge between their monarchs and ministers, the Tubo court will be seriously injured."

Wu Meiniang asked: "So Sanlang agrees with Meiniang's words?"

Li Ke was a little moved, but also worried: "Meiniang's words are a good strategy, but I'm only worried about using Qinling like this, there will be some inappropriateness, he is a smart person, he should know the meaning behind the marriage."

Wu Meiniang smiled and said, "Is Sanlang worried that Qinling will have a rift with Sanlang? But how does Sanlang know that marrying a clan girl is not what Qinling himself thought? Qinling is the wedding envoy of Tubo, and there is no such thing in my Tang Dynasty." Basically, if he can marry the daughter of my great Tang family, it will be of great help to him, since he has decided to be a Tang general, he should know these truths."

Qin Ling and Li Ke have the names of masters and apprentices, and Qin Ling is also a disciple of the son of heaven who is serious about the Eight Classics, but Qin Ling and Li Ke's master status is more famous than it is, not to mention that Qin Ling and Li Ke did not go together. Not getting close, even Li Ke has never really fulfilled the responsibility of teaching as a master.

Li Ke nodded and said: "Meiniang is the queen, and she also has the responsibility of controlling the clan girls. She must be the closest to and familiar with the girls in the clan every day. Do you know that there are clan girls who are of the same age and suitable for marriage?" Married in Qinling?"

Wu Meiniang replied without hesitation: "So the granddaughter of Hejian County King Li Xiaogong, the eldest daughter of Qiao Guogong Li Chongyi, and Yi'an County Lord Li Lan are sixteen years old, and they are the right age to marry Qinling."

Li Ke thought for a while and agreed: "In terms of seniority, Li Lan is my niece, and Qinling is my disciple. If the seniority is right, then Li Lan will be appointed. Immediately decree that Li Lan, the magistrate of Yi'an County, will be appointed." Lan is the lord of Leling County, married to Qinling."
