Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

……

……

Back home, Guo Ye quickly explained the matter to his wives and concubines.

Chai Xiuxiu was very happy after hearing this, and said: "I really want to fall asleep and hit the pillow. Let's go! Let's go! Let's go to the Erhai Lake with the whole family. I heard that it is south of the colorful clouds and the scenery is beautiful. It is really a good place to build a foundation." place!"

Guo Ye said: "I'm afraid not. Everyone else can leave, but you can't."

"What?"

"Isn't this obvious? I'm leading a heavy army, and you're acting as a hostage in Chang'an. If our whole family leaves, isn't it obvious that I'm telling the court that I have two intentions?"

"What can we do then?"

"I'm going to Shuzhong this time, so don't follow me alone. After the last two or three years, I've really solidified my power management. Then I will secretly take Feng Yi Zhenniang and the others over."

Chai Xiuxiu said: "Then what about me?"

Guo Ye said in embarrassment: "If you want to follow, you can only fake death. You are such a big princess, you can't disappear secretly, right?"

"Fake death?" Chai Xiuxiu hesitated, and said, "It must be like this?"

"You don't have to feign death. After a few years, the feudal world will be established, and we will also go to a piece of land to become a toubob. At that time, you will be able to leave in a fair manner."

"So, you don't plan to build a country in Erhai Lake?"

"If you can choose, it's better to build a country overseas. Don't think that the place is remote, but it is actually a place where the Fourth World War was fought. I'm afraid it's not a good idea to build a country here."

The so-called Erhai region actually refers to Yunnan.

Guo Ye understood that if he did not intervene in history, there would be Nanzhao first, and then Dali.In the end, it was destroyed by Mongolia and became part of China.The dynasty changes almost every 200 years.Although Guozuo is not short, it is by no means long.

Establishing a country here is just a helpless choice. If possible, he still hopes to lead some people to explore America.Regardless of whether future generations can become kings or not, at least the population pressure here is much less.There is no problem with adequate food and clothing.

In addition, this can be regarded as opening up a living space for the Han people, which can be called infinite merit.

However, there is no need to explain these reasons clearly to Chai Xiuxiu.

Chai Xiuxiu said: "Since you are determined to go overseas to build a country, then I will stick to Chang'an for a few years by myself, and there is no need to feign death. However, if you are sure that you will go to Jiannan Road alone, you don't need to be accompanied by someone? For example Sister Fengyi?"

Yang Fengyi said: "He wants me to go, but I won't go. The child is still young, but he can't stand long distance travel."

Guo Ye said: "No, no. I have been mainly in the army for the past two years, so what's the matter with bringing the female relatives into the barracks?"

"Hmph, it sounds like you can really hold back." Chai Xiuxiu sneered, "You should take it easy these two years, and don't add a few sisters to us."

"Of course not."

"I hope you will keep your word."

Guo Ye promised very well, but within a few days, he discovered that he had a tendency to renege on his promise and gain weight.

Just before leaving, Lei Shuyao came to visit.

The beauty rolled her eyes, and said: "King Qin is a thousand years old, before you go to Jiannan Road, don't forget to bring me, my servant!"

Guo Ye sneered and said, "You? I don't think there is any need to take you there. Yes, your Lei family has some prestige among the Liao people, but...you are a person I can't trust."

Lei Shuyao was on the verge of weeping, and said: "King Qin is a thousand years old, how can you say that? The little girl did something wrong before, but I didn't do it to avenge my father, and I did it as a last resort? Your lord has a lot, why bother?" Have the same knowledge as the little girl?"

"Okay, okay, don't do this to me."

Guo Ye waved his hand impatiently, and said, "I don't need to be as knowledgeable as you, but there's no need to keep a poisonous snake by my side. Even if I'm a fool, I should have a better memory after being tricked by you a few times in a row, right? "

Lei Shuyao said sternly: "I know that with the previous incident, it is difficult for me to gain your trust again. However, what I want to say is that what you have to do now is nothing more than defeating Yang Sheng to suppress the rebellion Army, and this is exactly what the slave family wants.”

"so what?"

"At least it means that there is no need for the servants to betray you."

Guo Ye slowly shook his head and said, "I don't think so. Lei Shuyao..."

"The concubine is here!"

"What do you think about the Liao people's conversion of their land to their native land?"

"Returning to the land?" Lei Shuyao opened his eyes wide and asked suspiciously: "What does this have to do with the slave family?"

"How can it not matter? Since you are the saintess of the Liao people, it is of course related to you whether they are self-governing or reforming the land."

Lei Shuyao chuckled, and said: "You take it for granted that this is the King of Qin. If the relationship between the slave family and the Liao people is so great, how could my father be murdered by Yang Sheng? And why are the slave family and the younger brother pursued thousands of miles away?" kill?"

"what do you mean……"

"Whether the Liao people change their lands or not, affects the interests of those tribal chiefs, and has little to do with the Bamboo King Temple. In other words, the main strength of the Bamboo King Temple comes from the belief of the Liao people, not other things."

Guo Ye said: "So, the real role of the Bamboo King Temple is to be the spiritual leader of the Liao people?"

"Spiritual...leader?" Lei Shuyao thought for a while, and said, "King Qin has a good opinion, that's exactly the case. Our Lei family is also a spiritual leader in success, and a spiritual leader in defeat. Because it is only a spiritual leader, the process of rising is uneventful. "

She paused for a moment, then continued: "It is precisely because he is only a spiritual leader that his actual strength is quite limited. Yang Sheng is determined to deal with Zhuwang Temple. Not only our Lei family is unable to protect ourselves, but other people are also unwilling to stand up for us. .”

"So that's the case, it's still a little bit different from what I imagined before. If that's the case..." Guo Ye paused and said: "What if I ask the Zhuwang Temple to support the reform of the land?"

Lei Shuyao's eyes lit up, Yingying bowed down, and said: "Dare you not to obey!"

"Very good. Then I'll trust you again." After all, Guo Ye couldn't bear to part with such an excellent insider, so he just beat him a bit.He said, "In three days, let's set off together."

"Thank you, King Qin Qiansui." Lei Shuyao said: "In addition, regarding how to quell the chaos of the Liao people, I don't know if I should say something or not."

"You said."

"The key to pacifying the Liaoren is not the Liao, but the Han!"

"How do you say this?"

"The reason why the Liao people rose up was because Yang Sheng was ambitious on the one hand. But the more important reason was that the corrupt officials of the Han people oppressed too much, and the Liao people had to rebel."

Guo Ye sneered and said, "I don't like to hear these words. You Liao people don't even pay taxes, why are you talking about oppression too much? Could it be that the imperial court is looking for money from Liao people to make you satisfied? What a lack of support!"

"That's why King Qin didn't know something. Yes, according to the court decree, we Liao people do not have to pay taxes. But in fact, we still have to pay all kinds of regular money. It's just that the money can't reach the court treasury."

"Is this true?"

"My family dare not lie to the King of Qin. How can you get [-] Liao soldiers and horses based on the land of the three states alone? In fact, most of these people came from other state capitals. If you want to put down the chaos of the Liao people, the best The method is actually to draw from the bottom of the pot and prevent the bureaucrats from other state capitals from providing soldiers for Yangsheng."
