Datang: Longevity for Thousands of Years, Exposed by Xiao Sizi

Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui and Cheng Yaojin exchanged glances and silently looked at the glass statue behind them.

Unable to control it, the corners of his mouth curled up wildly.

They want to laugh.

Want to laugh.

He exchanged something that was worthless for a million dan of grain for nothing.

Your Majesty, awesome!
Master Qin, you are awesome!

卧

It’s really amazing!
"Assistant, Wei Zheng, why are you laughing?"

Li Jing looked at them and shouted, "How can you still laugh at this time?"

Li Jing was angry.

When did this happen?

Still laughing.

Du Ruhui and the other four looked at each other.

“Pfft….hahahaha…”

The hearty laughter reached the sky.

I can't hold it back any longer.

Upon seeing this, Li Jing, Qin Qiong and others all turned pale and stared at the four men, suddenly wanting to strangle them to death.

The Tang Dynasty is about to lose a precious treasure, yet you can still laugh?

Damn it! !
"hiss……."

"what……."

Changsun Wuji took several deep breaths before he managed to calm himself down.

"I am... we are laughing out of anger."

"Yes!" Du Ruhui immediately agreed: "We are so sad. The most precious treasure of our Tang Dynasty is going to be bought by the Turks. We really are...hahaha..."

"It's only a mere one million dan of grain... Hahahaha... Such a huge loss, such a huge loss!!"

Wei Zheng covered his stomach with both hands and laughed so hard that tears came out.

"No more talking, let's go back and drink, hahaha..."

Du Ruhui yelled.

Cheng Yaojin was behind him and simply covered his face with his sleeves.

One million dan of grain!
With this food, people will no longer have any problem surviving the winter.

There was even enough food and supplies to deal with the Turks.

Now, if the Turks move south, it will be really difficult for the Tang Dynasty to resist, after all, it has no food or fodder. But with these one million dan of grain, everything will be different.

Even if the Turks come, the Tang Dynasty will be able to fight.

This time, the Tang Dynasty was really blessed by the King of Chu and was able to obtain millions of dan of grain for free.

Absolutely!

It’s really amazing!
Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng, Cheng Yaojin and Du Ruhui couldn't hold it in any longer, they were afraid that if they stayed any longer they would be exposed.

Although everyone in the hall is our own people now, things still did not succeed after all.

If anything unexpected happens, they won't be able to take responsibility at all.

Just slipped away.

Flee in a hurry.

I plan to find a place and drink for two days while waiting for the arrival of one million dan of grain!
"Ah... Your Majesty is under too much pressure. Let's go."

"Assistant Engine, Wei Zheng and the others must be under a lot of pressure. I didn't expect that they were almost going crazy."

"Let's go too. I feel really bad that I can't share His Majesty's worries."

Li Jing let out a long sigh and left.

Qin Qiong, Yuchi Jingde, Wei Zheng and the others all shook their heads, looking worried and taking heavy steps.

….…….……….
"Do you know that there was chaos in the morning court today? The Turks were furious because the marriage was cancelled the day before yesterday. They wanted Your Majesty to give them a lot of tribute, but the treasury of the Tang Dynasty is empty. Your Majesty can't give it to them. You can only repay them with a rare treasure."

"I've also heard that this rare treasure is a peerless treasure left behind from an overseas fairy island. It's said that it was carved using the Nuwa Heaven-Repairing Stone?"

"Yes, who said it wasn't? When this rare treasure appeared, it was accompanied by countless wolf howls. This thing suppressed the fortune of our Tang Dynasty, but this time it is going to belong to the Turks. Damn it! How should our Tang Dynasty deal with the Turks in the future?"

"There is no other way. There is no other way. Your Majesty has really paid too much for the Tang Dynasty. Sigh... If this rare treasure is handed over to the Turks, then in the future, the Turks will become more and more powerful, and our Tang Dynasty will become more and more decadent. It's so difficult!"

"What Mr. Qin said shocked us, but it is too difficult to do it."

"Don't say such discouraging words. Your Majesty is still holding on. It's just a rare treasure. The worst that can happen is that we will die!"

"That's right! But, this peerless treasure is going to be given to the Turks. I really can't bear it!!"

"This treasure is too precious. I heard it is far more valuable than the Heshi Bi. But today, it was only exchanged for a million dan of grain. This... our Tang Dynasty is really going to lose a lot!!"

"There's nothing I can do. It's because the Tang Dynasty was defeated three years ago."

"The Turks really got a great bargain this time. I guess they would wake up laughing in their dreams."

"......."

Countless people were discussing it in the streets and alleys of Chang'an.

What happened in the morning court could not be kept secret for long, let alone something so important.

Rare treasure!
Suppress the destiny of the Tang Dynasty!

But two days later, it will belong to the Turks.

That's horrible!
It's so miserable!

The people must be extremely upset. This is their own treasure, but others are selling it at a low price. It is just like the poor people who can only sell their fertile land at a very low price in the end.

Why…….
The people of Chang'an were truly deeply touched.

In the streets and alleys, people were sighing, beating their chests and wailing. They couldn't control themselves. They hated the Turks for being greedy, and they also hated themselves for being incompetent!

Imperial College.

Kong Yingda was in the room, concentrating on reading the book in his hands.

Yu Shinan came hurriedly, holding his robe in one hand and with a serious expression on his face.

"Chong Yuan, Chong Yuan, something bad has happened! Something bad has happened!!"

"Chongyuan, in the court, our Tang Dynasty is about to lose the thing that suppresses the destiny of the country. It's bad, it's bad!!"

"Go far, go far..."

Yu Shinan shouted loudly, pushed the door open with his body, and squatted in front of Kong Yingda, sweating profusely.

Kong Yingda looked at him puzzledly.

Yu Shinan immediately recounted what happened at the morning court session.

"Chong Yuan, what do you think about this matter?"

"Chongyuan, why don't you say anything, Chongyuan!"

Yu Shinan was anxious.

Kong Yingda glanced at him and sighed deeply.

"This is the fate of our Great Tang. There is no need to panic. What are you afraid of? As long as Master Qin is here, our Great Tang will not be able to turn the tables!!"

Kong Yingda started to scold.

"Mr. Qin...but..."

Yu Shinan didn't know why Kong Yingda was so confident about Qin Changye.

but…….
Kong Yingda had already lowered his head to read again.

He opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything. He could only sigh, then stood up and ran out.

He wants to go and talk to other teachers.

Kong Yingda turned the page.

He looked up and saw Yu Shinan who had disappeared.

The door of the study was half open.

The autumn wind, which seemed to be somewhat cool, blew in gently.

It is almost September now, and the weather is starting to become neither too warm nor too dry, and the breeze feels very comfortable.

The sweet-scented osmanthus tree at the door has begun to bloom, and the chrysanthemums on both sides are blooming and fragrant.

The sky is very blue.

The grass is green.

Everything is fine.

Kong Yingda smiled.

He lowered his head again, smiled and looked at the book.

The greatest treasure of the Tang Dynasty?

If it is true, Master Qin will never allow the treasure to fall into the hands of others. And if Master Qin does not come forward, then this matter is definitely not as simple as it seems.

Let the wind continue to blow for a while.

…….…….…….
Northern Xinjiang. The temperature here can already be called cold.

This year, it seems to be earlier than ever before.

However, no one felt there was anything different.

The Northern Frontier is a wild land. Who cares if the weather here is a little hot or a little cold?

No one cares!
Might as well think about what to eat tonight.

During the late Sui Dynasty, eighteen rebel kings fought for the world.

Later, they were defeated one by one by Li Shimin, but one of them was not destroyed. Instead, it retreated to the northern border and relied on the Turks to establish the Liang State.

This person is Liang Shidu.

Because of the support of the Turks, the Liang State, which had only four cities, became a thorn deeply embedded in the body of the Tang Dynasty.

The Turks often used Liang as a provocation to harass the Tang Dynasty from time to time.

The Tang Dynasty had absolutely no solution.

He could only scowl and endure this loss in silence.

It is not easy to attack the Turks. It is almost impossible to bypass Liang State to attack the Turks. If you are not careful, you will be surrounded and annihilated by the Liang army in cooperation with the Turks.

It would be even more difficult to conquer Liang State first, as the four cities had been built to be impregnable with the help of the Turks.

The price to pay for destroying the State of Liang cannot be underestimated.

If we pay too high a price to destroy Liang State and shake the border defense, and if the Turks seize the opportunity and repeat the disaster of three years ago, it will really be a loss.

The Tang Dynasty was extremely cautious.

Don't dare to take the initiative easily.

For the State of Liang, it was even more of a headache, and there was absolutely no way out.

This seems to be a dead end.

Liangcheng!

This is the most magnificent city among the four cities and also the capital of Liang State.

The Liang Palace in the center.

“Hahaha…Come on, come on, drink, drink, drink!”

"What's the point of fighting for the world? It's better to be free and easy like this."

"As for Li Shimin, I think he is not as comfortable as I am."

Liang Shidu held the wine glass in his hand, looked at the dancer of the prince, and laughed drunkenly.

Beside him, dozens of palace maids served him.

There are foot massages, leg hammers, shoulder massages...
All have.

Below, many generals who followed Liang Shidu were also holding wine glasses and lying in the hall in a dissolute manner.

"The General is right!"

"Hahaha... That little Li Shimin is having a headache right now. I heard there's a locust plague this year, and now the Turkic delegation is coming to ask for food. Damn it, what's so good about being an emperor? We're so comfortable like this!!"

"Who said it wasn't true? Come on, General, let's drink. We are so carefree every day. It's absolutely impossible for Li Shimin to be so carefree!!"

"That's right. When we have nothing to do, we will go hunting in the grasslands. When we are free, we will lead the army out of the city and sweep across the Tang Dynasty."

“This day is beautiful!!”

"......."

The group of people below laughed loudly, extremely arrogantly.

"Yes!"

"This Li Shimin has no way to deal with us. Last time he tried to attack the city, he ended up killing 500 to 600 people and fleeing in vain."

"Humph, I think the Tang Dynasty is no match for the Turks!"

"We can hold on to the Turkic thighs. Who knows, we may be able to go to Chang'an sometime and snatch a few of Li Shimin's concubines for fun."

"The Empress Changsun is famous, and I have been coveting her for a long time!!"

As Master Liang spoke, his wolf-like eyes revealed an extremely crazy desire.

Licking his teeth with his tongue,
His face was filled with beast-like greed.

"General, it's almost there, it's almost there, it will definitely be soon, don't worry, hahahaha..."

"That's right. Three years ago, the Turks came to Chang'an, but we didn't participate. Next time, we will definitely join them!!"

"That's right. By then, our Liang Kingdom will take over a few cities in the northern border and gradually erode the Tang Dynasty. There will be a day when our Liang Kingdom will become the overlord!!"

"General, when the time comes, Empress Changsun will definitely be captured and presented to you first."

"......."

The crowd shouted.

The voice is arrogant.

“Hahaha….Okay, okay!!”

Liang Shidu shouted.

But, at this moment...
Da da da…….
Footsteps suddenly sounded outside.

"Go tell this to the King of Hell!"

An extremely abrupt and cold voice suddenly rang out.

next moment.

The smile on Liang Shidu's face suddenly stopped, and his eyes suddenly looked outside.

The group of generals below were also suddenly startled.

"Who! Someone come here!"

"Whoever dares to trespass into the Liang Kingdom's Imperial City will be killed without mercy!!"

Liang Shidu shouted.

"Don't shout. All your people are dead."

"Now, in the imperial city, only a few of you are alive, hehe..."

"I have to say, the place His Highness found for us to stay is really good."

With a chuckle, two people walked in side by side.

One person has a graceful temperament and holds a silk scarf in his hand.

One of them is as cold as ice, with an embroidered spring sword on his waist.

"Who are you to be so presumptuous!!"

"My Liang State is as solid as a rock. No one can get in!"

Liang Shidu stood up suddenly.

All those generals retreated in front of Liang Shidu.

The palace maids in the hall were all panicked and prostrated on the ground with pale faces.

"No one can get in?"

"Immovable? What a joke. Let me ask you, is there any place in the world that we, the West Factory, cannot go to?"

The elegant man chuckled.

And next to it, the Embroidered Spring Sword had already been unsheathed.

"The Royal Guards are following your Highness' orders to kill the traitors!!"

"Your Highness? Who are you?"

"Western Factory? Jinyiwei? Why has this general never heard of it?"

Master Liang didn't believe it. He really didn't believe it. He had never heard of these two places. It would be extremely absurd if he died at the hands of these two strangers.

"My prince? You don't deserve to know! Kill!!"

The Embroidered Spring Sword came out, and a figure rushed forward directly.

The graceful man stood there, smiled and shook his head, and said, "Sir Shen, go slower. After all, you just arrived in the north. I'll give you the credit."

"I, the Governor, will not compete with you for these."

As soon as he finished speaking, several heads rolled to the ground in front of him.

Only Liang Shidu was left.

now.

His face was pale.

Shortness of breath.

Legs feel weak.

Unable to control himself, a yellow-white substance directly covered the entire trouser leg.

too fast!
It’s really too fast!

He had never seen such fast moves before. He had also survived the fighting and bloodshed over the years.

However, he had never encountered such horror.
