Datang Library

The most important thing is, you actually admitted that I taught you Lao Du a good martial art, and you used it for this?How about this one?Could it be that your old tree is sprouting new shoots, and you are ready to take a concubine?Or exotic?Princess Goguryeo?

Bai Fan made up his mind, and the officials here are in a mess. No one believes that Du Ruhui robbed women and children, and they all believe it is a rumor, but now the old Du admits it, and he confesses it.

So the audience immediately sprayed wine, dropped chopsticks, overturned wine bottles, unsteady stools and fell to the ground, and even overturned a table (note: the Eight Immortals square table has been popularized in the Tang Dynasty banquet), Li Er woke up Waking up, he asked, "Keming, what did you say? Say it again."

"Your Majesty, I did rob a princess from the Goguryeo palace.

The child Du Gou was seriously injured and trapped in the Goguryeo palace for a month. During this period, he was rescued by a Goguryeo princess before he was rescued safely by us.

Therefore, after saving the child, we took the princess away as well. I had wanted to report it before but had no chance. Please forgive me, Your Majesty. "

Du Ruhui gave an overview of what happened at the fastest speed, and the rest of the people can make up their own brains. It's just a short story about a young couple in love, so there is no pressure to think about it.

Bai Fan was speechless. What Lao Du said, what does it mean to take it away?Do you think you went to the market to catch piglets?Stealing sheep is stealing, but you and the Du family's father and son are fine, stealing sheep is 'stealing people'.

The audience was silent for a full minute, then Li Eryi slapped the desk table, pointed at Du Ruhui and burst out laughing, covering his stomach so hard that he couldn't straighten his back, laughing so hard that tears came out and couldn't stop, which made Du Ruhui even more nervous. feel embarrassed.

After a long time, Li Erqiang restrained himself to stop and said: "Aiqing has done a wonderful job, even if I go there in person, I am afraid that I will never be able to complete such a pioneering feat. I express my admiration and I am convinced!"

Du Ruhui: "..."

"What crime are you waiting for? The Tang Dynasty and Goguryeo belong to the enemy's kingdom. Don't say that you went deep into the enemy's rear and slaughtered all directions and brought back the princess as a trophy. Even if you brought the King of Goguryeo back, you will only have great merit and no guilt in front of me.

Rewards must be rewarded heavily, and all love ministers help to think about how to reward them. "

After Li Er finished speaking, he couldn't help laughing again and fell down.

Du Gou glanced at his father speechlessly, it seemed that it would be no problem to bring back his cheap father-in-law.

But Du Ruhui looked at Li Yuanba, looking at each other speechlessly, when did His Majesty have this talent?We almost brought back the Goguryeo king.

After this incident, Du Ruhui became famous, and the people of Tang Dynasty had another interesting topic of conversation after dinner.

Li Er was not dissatisfied with this matter at all, and married Du Gou and Princess Goguryeo on the spot, and even said that he would send the queen to be the head of the woman's family to help buy the dowry.

As for Goguryeo's use of public opinion to mobilize the people, there is a princess daughter-in-law in hand, and the right to speak is not necessarily in Goguryeo. Li Er directly handed over the matter to Du Gou's master Bai Fan. Changed to benefit the Tang Dynasty, it will be implemented together with the future war of destroying the country and killing the heart.

Bai Fan said that he was innocent and lying on the gun, so why am I responsible for such a secret conspiracy?I don't have the talent for black belly, this kid Du Gou is cheating Master.

Hehe, if you say that you, Bai Fan, don't have the talent for conspiracy, I'm afraid a fool would believe it.

Today's Chapter 2, thank you for your support.

Chapter 758 The Calm Before the Storm

The monarchs and ministers of the Tang Dynasty had already discussed the development of the countries after the integration of the countries in the Chang'an Palace, but the people of Goguryeo, who were still ignorant at this time, fell into a lot of discussions because of the imperial court's notice.

"Have you heard? Datang has come a few times now, sneaked into the palace and robbed the princess."

"Hey man, you don't really believe this lie, do you?

This is obviously because the imperial court wanted to recruit soldiers and went crazy, and deceived us with such levelless lies. After all, none of us want to be a soldier.

I wouldn't believe this even to death. Besides, what does the life and death of the princess in the palace care about us?If I have that time, I might as well think about how to sell some mountain goods to make money. "

The two passers-by just tore apart in the street.

All around were passers-by watching, and after a while, a group of people participated in the discussion of this matter.

"A distant cousin of mine works in the royal palace. I heard that he saw it with his own eyes. It is true." One person shouted excitedly.

"That's right, that's good, the official documents won't lie, she's our Princess Ruyi of Goguryeo."

"Hey, what Princess Ruyi? I've never heard of it before. Besides, there are a lot of princesses in the king. If one is missing, what does it matter?

I want my father to be a soldier, but there is no door. My three children are still counting on me to support me. I don’t want to die on the battlefield. "The man before insisted with a blushing face.

"That's right, that's right, the government will only exploit us when collecting food, and now it's embarrassing and wants us to send someone to die? There is no door, and we will definitely not serve as soldiers. We can beat Tang Dynasty A few years ago, General Ulji Mundeok’s [-] troops were wiped out, and none of them survived. My elder brother was sent to his death because he was captured by a strong man.” Someone echoed.

Another person stood up and said: "You don't know, not only a few years ago, I have relatives who served in the army.

I heard that a few months ago, the imperial court and several other countries organized an army of 50 to attack Datang, and they were all killed and injured. All the casualties were from our side. There is no way to win. Maybe they kidnapped the princess for revenge. . "

"Oh, no wonder they said that the grain tax will increase this year, and they wantonly collected corvée around the capital. It turned out that there was a war, but why didn't we know anything? Why did the court keep it from us?" Many people suddenly realized.

There was a witty taunt: "Let you know? Is it useful to let you know? You can decide not to fight? You go back to join the army to help? It's a gift from the higher ups not to arrest you. You still want to participate in national affairs."

"Why doesn't it have anything to do with us? They went to provoke the enemy without making a sound. Now that they are coming to retaliate, wouldn't it mean that there will be another big war, and we will definitely have to pay for it if we fail at that time. My family doesn't have any surplus food to hand over to them. ' argued the man.

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but think deeply. This is really the case, so a new round of debate started again. At this time, it seems that no one really cares about whether the princess is a princess or not.

It was intended that a piece of paper would arouse the hatred of the people in the country towards Datang, but the effect seemed to be unexpected, as can be seen from the great anger towards Lu Yuangai Suwen at this time.

"Damn it, a group of useless untouchables. The Kingdom of Central Plains has been obsessed with Goguryeo for decades. Countless wars have been caused, and they are sworn enemies with us. Which family has not killed or injured their relatives because of them? Why are they all shrinking at this time? Have you forgotten the blood feud?"

One of the servants behind him curled his lips inwardly, secretly thinking that he deserved it, it is true that the Tang Dynasty fought and killed people, but how did the Goguryeo army come here? It seems that it was not caused by the Tang Dynasty. The common people went to die, so the common people didn't put the account on Datang's head. If it wasn't because of the imperial court's misfortune to the common people, could I be reduced to the deep palace and become a servant?

Obviously, this person came from a poor background. In order to survive, he had to enter the palace to serve the powerful, but even so, he did not forget his origin.

"To Lu, in fact, there is no need to be so angry. Although the large-scale conscription is not effective, there are still [-] to [-] people who are bloody and determined to serve the country and join the army. Datang’s Thunderbolt, it seems that the number of people is not the point, and even a group of timid people may lower our morale, so, don’t worry about it.”

A knowledgeable general stood up and persuaded.

Yuan Gai Su Wen was still angry, he pondered for a moment, then snorted and said: "What you said is not unreasonable.

However, this group of unscrupulous people does not think of the emperor's favor and does not want to serve the country, so this crime must not go unpunished.

The autumn harvest is coming soon, and this year's grain tax will be increased by [-]%.

In addition, regarding Datang's Thunderbolt, hehe, it's time to use the secret weapon obtained from the Western Turks, and send people to increase cement production. Since they want to attack the city, they will destroy our city before the autumn harvest. All replaced with copper walls and iron walls.

Don't care about labor costs, the people don't want to fight, they have to pay, and if they don't have enough manpower, they impose corvee. A group of untouchables, if the country doesn't survive, it's meaningless to protect them. "

This……

When the general heard this, his heart was awe-inspiring. This order seems to be a bit cruel. If the food tax is increased by [-]%, the common people will be in dire straits. What if internal riots are triggered?

But seeing the madness on Lu's face, he didn't dare to persuade him too much. It was not the general Ulji Takede, basically no one in the court would dare to contradict Lu.

"Damn Du Ruhui, since our people have no experience and don't believe this matter, and spread this matter to the Tang Dynasty, they don't believe that the people of the Tang Dynasty can tolerate a person who robs women and children to be a prime minister."

"Decree!" Compared with state affairs, a rumor is insignificant. The general agreed immediately. He also knew that his brother Lu's real brother was brutally murdered, but he couldn't commit suicide in person to take revenge. He could only let it go. Let go of the rumors.

But even this one seems to have returned in vain. They can't control their own public opinion in Goguryeo, so why talk about Datang?

Half of the public opinion in the Tang Dynasty is in the imperial court, and half is in the folk, and the folk is in charge of Bai Fan. After all, although the beggar gang is adapted, it is hidden from the people by changing its appearance. As long as Bai Fan gives an order, millions of gangs will drown out a rumor Isn't it the same as playing?

In addition, Gao Ruyi, the princess of Goguryeo in Chang'an City, came out to refute the rumors in person, and in Chang'an City, under the witness of the common people, married the new Pyongyang Marquis Du Gou as his wife.
