Chapter 321 Powerful Minister Zhao Guangxin

"The foreign minister brought a tribute to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty outside the camp. Although it is not much, it is enough to show that the Zhao family has awe for His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. As long as the Tang Dynasty retreats, I, Zhenla=, will offer a more generous tribute. Tribute." Zhao Qian said respectfully.

Subsequently.

Turn around and leave the camp.

When passing Du Qiong who was kneeling on the ground, Zhao Qian's eyes flashed with greed: "Princess, haha, when the Tang army retreats, I will make you my slave."

After Zhao Qian left.

Du Qiong raised his head with tears in his eyes and said extremely humbly: "General...you, do you really want to withdraw?"

"Princess Nanzhao."

"Whether or not the Tang Dynasty withdraws its troops has nothing to do with you. You can go out."

Li Zheng said calmly.

Several personal guards stepped forward directly.

"Princess, please."

One of the guards pointed to the outside of the camp.

Du Qiong stood up absentmindedly, looked at Li Zheng without any emotion in his eyes, and walked out aimlessly.

After he left.

"Judging from Zhao Qian's appearance, he may feel that this general is impressed by the conditions of his Zhao family. He will take this opportunity to see how Prince Li operates in the capital city of Zhenla." Li Zheng turned his head, He smiled at Li Daozong.

"Do not worry."

"I, the Prince of Jiangxia, have many spies in Zhenla. It is not difficult to get in touch with the little king of Zhenla and the Zhenla courtiers who oppose Zhao Guangxin." Li Daozong nodded.

"The next step is to look at Prince Li."

"As long as there is an internal response in the capital city of Chenla, our army's attack on the city can reduce many casualties." Li Zheng said with a smile.

"In short, we, the Liangzhou frontier army, will be the vanguard in this attack on the city."

"Your Majesty, don't fight with me right now." Hou Junji said directly.

"rest assured."

"I will not rob you."

"General Li and General Hou deserve the credit for the main battle this time." Li Daozong replied with a smile.

I had no intention of grabbing it at all.

He naturally understood that Hou Junji, as well as the generals in Shandong and Hebei, relied on this battle to make a comeback. Whether they could restore their titles depended on this battle.

The great contribution of destroying Zhenla and Nanzhao was the basis for their restoration of titles and the basis for their further rewards.

If you don't fight, you will get a favor from Hou Junji.

Hearing Li Daozong's words.

Hou Junji and the generals in Shandong and Hebei were obviously relieved.

Chenla Palace.

The layout is the same as that of the Tang Dynasty, with clear distinctions between civil and military affairs, and dragon chairs in high positions.

Above, sitting is a ten-year-old child wearing a dragon robe.

Not too old.

He is Chen Yu, the little king of Chenla.

Although Zhenla is not big, the sparrow is small but has all the internal organs. Even the farming official positions and official system follow the Central Plains dynasty, and have been deeply influenced by the Central Plains culture since ancient times.

Sitting on the dragon throne, the emperor is supreme.

But there was an extremely annoying person in front of him.

He stood directly in front of the dragon chair, standing on the stairs, overlooking the court. His domineering look was just like Dong Zhuo in the late Eastern Han Dynasty of the Central Plains Dynasty.

"Start your Majesty."

"Let's start with the Grand Master."

"I have just gone to the Tang army camp to hand over the tribute. Judging from the appearance of the Tang army generals, it seems that we can discuss it." After Zhao Qian came back, he immediately went to the palace to report.

"like…"

Chen Yu was about to speak.

"Who is the leader of the Tang army? Li Daozong?" Zhao Guangxin said directly, without giving the little king a chance to speak.

"Return to the Grand Master."

"He is a very young Tang general."

"According to my investigation, it should be Li Zheng who is most popular in the Tang Dynasty and has won the trust of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty."

"In the past few years, he has made many military exploits for the Tang Dynasty. Even the Turkic Khan was killed by him." Zhao Qian said immediately.

"It turned out to be him." Zhao Guangxin nodded, with some fear in his eyes. He stationed 80,000 troops to guard the border. Logically speaking, he could withstand it for a month or two, but in the end he could not hold out for even a day.

"Master."

"I think this Li Zheng is nothing more than that."

"I brought the tribute to the camp. Although it was only for a brief moment, I can see that Li Zheng is an indecisive person."

"It's nothing to worry about." Zhao Qian said very proudly.

Judging from the meaning of his words, he didn't take Li Zheng seriously at all.

"Hundreds of thousands of Tang troops are outside the city, so we must not slack off."

"Pass this Grand Master's order to strengthen vigilance."

"We can't be attacked by the Tang army." Zhao Guangxin said seriously.

"The last general takes orders."

The generals of Zhenla in the court immediately responded.

From beginning to end, the little king of Zhenla was ignored. In this huge court, he seemed unable to speak and was completely suppressed by Zhao Guangxin.

"Zhao Guangxin."

Chen Yu, the little king of Zhenla, looked at Zhao Guangxin from the corner of his eyes, his eyes full of anger and murderous intent.

……

Tang Dynasty, Chang'an.

Tai Chi Hall, Imperial Study Room.

late at night.

The memorials on Li Shimin's desk have been reviewed and processed. If it were in the past, he would have taken a rest early, but today he was sitting in front of the documents and waiting.

From time to time, he turned to look at the bed.

A little boy of almost three years old was sleeping on it. He chirped from time to time, a smile appeared on his little face, and murmured a few words in his sleep from time to time, and the quilt was kicked open.

See this.

Li Shimin stepped forward lightly and covered his grandson with a quilt.

"This little guy really does look like his dad, he looks like this too."

Looking at his grandson's little face, Li Shimin also had a look of love on his face.

At this time.

Wang De walked in gently from outside the hall.

Looking at Li Shimin in front of the bed, he didn't dare to say anything.

Li Shimin stood up slowly, moved farther away from the bed, and then asked in a low voice: "How is it? Did anyone bring it?"

"Commander Wang is waiting outside the palace with his people." Wang De said respectfully.

"Bring it in."

Li Shimin nodded and sat back in front of the imperial court where he was reviewing the memorial.

Wang De walked out quietly and called Wang Hao who was outside the hall. Behind Wang Hao was an elderly woman, probably thirty or forty years old.

"I see your Majesty."

Wang Hao entered the hall and knelt down respectfully.

The woman behind him also knelt down in fear, but she leaned her head with a look of fear on her face.

"Ah."

Li Shimin nodded and waved his hand.

His eyes fell directly on the woman.

"I know you, what's your name?" Li Shimin asked.

"Return to the Emperor."

"Slave... My name is Hu Mei. Your Majesty hired you to serve Miss Lin." The woman said with a trembling voice.

"Back then, you were always serving Cuiping in Shanxi?" Li Shimin asked again.

"Return to...the Emperor." Hu Mei said with a trembling voice: "I...I served Miss Lin for less than a year. Just because my family arranged a marriage for me, I left Miss Lin."

"But before leaving Miss Lin, I helped her find another girl named Yunzhu to take care of her. I heard that Yunzhu took care of her for several years."

Hear the words.

Li Shimin nodded and asked: "Then do you know why Cuiping left the mountains?"
