"Oh? Where is the weirdness?"

Chen Chu asked.

Li Lizhi analyzed: "Supposedly, it is unreasonable for my father to seal you as Marquis of Pingxi and expand your fief to such a large extent. After all, you have not made any contributions during this period of time. He was also continuously impeached by Shi Yushi Xu Wei and others... However, it is reasonable for the father to say that he wanted to make up for you, but this other matter is a bit unbelievable. The important ministers are traveling together in Shanzhou... Even if they want to see the prosperity of Shanzhou in person, there shouldn't be so many people dispatched, the emperor can definitely bring a small number of people for a private visit..."

Chen Chu laughed, and said: "My wife Lizhi, to tell you the truth, the emperor came to Shanzhou this time not just to see the prosperity of Shanzhou, but to take down Tubo in one fell swoop."

Tibet?

Li Lizhi was taken aback, staring at Chen Chu blankly, and asked: "Impossible, Tubo has been very powerful these years, and after doing business with the Tang Dynasty, it has bought a lot of iron, salt, and many goods that are in short supply. The army is already strong, and the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty all think that it is not a wise move to take action against Tubo at this time. Some people even advocate that they agree to Songtsen Gampo's proposal and marry a princess to Tubo, so that Songtsen Gampo can be stabilized first Even if the emperor really wants to attack Tubo at this time, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will not agree. What's more, as far as I know, there have been no troops mobilized around Shanzhou recently, and even the general Li Ji No action... This is not at all a sign of sending troops to Tubo."

Chen Chu stood up and said with a smile: "Whoever said that if you fight Tubo, you must send troops, wife Lizhi, you don't know, in fact, when I started a war with Tubo, I had already made a plan for Tang to win without bloodshed." Tubo's plan, now that all the groundwork has been completed, it's time to start. In fact, the father can sit in Chang'an and wait for my news, but now it seems that he can't sit still and insists on coming to Shan The state will add fire to me, so it's not bad, and the chances of winning will be even greater."

It was so!

Li Lizhi suddenly realized.

It turned out that everything was fake.

Whether it is Ping Xibo or the huge fiefdom, letting Chen Chu manage Shanzhou, etc., is all an illusion.

The real purpose is Tubo.

And all of this was controlled by Chen Chu.

Not to mention Tubo, but inside the Tang Dynasty, except for the father, no one may have noticed it.

Li Li asked: "Husband, what are the chances of winning Tubo this time?"

"Fifty percent."

"Only half? Would it be too risky?"

Chen Chu shook his head and explained: "In wars and games between countries, as long as there is a [-]% chance of winning, it is enough to start, because the victory is dynamic, not static. You let Qingque prepare well, and we will set off tomorrow Love some cities."

"What? Are you going to visit these cities yourself?"

"Not just me, but also Qingque."

"No," Li Lizhi immediately refused, "This is too dangerous... Once Songtsan Gampo and Mendo know your plan, you will be in danger."

"Hahaha……"

Chen Chu laughed a few times, and said: "I have to take action on this matter... Don't worry, even if it really got to that point, Songtsan Gampo would not dare to do anything. The present Songtsan Gampo is no longer the same as before. The majestic Songtsan Gampo is gone."

"But……"

"My wife, I have made up my mind. Don't worry. This time, Xue Rengui will bring the special forces he has trained in Shanzhou for several years with me. Also, the general has been in Shanzhou for the past few years. Shit, his gaze has never left Luoxie City, and my West Datang Company is not just doing business in Luoxiecheng. If the situation becomes chaotic, whether we can win Tubo is another matter, but I am running away It's sure to be fine."

Hearing Chen Chu's detailed explanation and seeing Chen Chu's firm attitude, Li Lizhi felt relieved and turned to inform Li Tai.

After Li Lizhi left, Chen Chu turned around, looked behind a pillar, and said calmly, "Come out, Angsi."

Behind the pillar, Angsi ran out in a panic.

"Master, I, I didn't hear anything." Ang Si said with a flustered expression.

Chen Chu stepped forward, pinched Angsi's face, and asked, "Tubo will soon become a part of Tang Dynasty, will you be sad?"

Angsi raised her head, shook her head, and said seriously: "No, my mother is not from Tubo, and I didn't grow up in Tubo. Can you not kill him?"

Chen Chu smiled immediately: "Don't worry, even if Songtsan Gampo is killed, Prime Minister Mendo will be fine, he is my old friend, not to mention, Prime Minister Mendo is the most important thing to win Tubo this time." Hero."

Anse nodded half understanding.

……

……

The next morning.

At the gate of the south gate of Shanzhou City, there was a lot of killing.

In the past, this south gate was the busiest and busiest place, and merchants and common people all came in and out from here.The south gate is also the gate of Shanzhou City that was not closed for the first twelve hours.

But this morning, all the people who passed by were driven to other places.

Here, there will be the most distinguished guests.

Li Ji, the highest general in Shanzhou, led many generals from Longyou Road, and officials of all sizes in Shanzhou, waiting at the gate of the city early.

Li Ji was in full armor, riding on a big ocean horse, his cloak was fluttering in the wind behind him, but he himself was motionless.

A few hours passed, and soon it was noon.

Many officials were so hot that their heads were sweating, and they couldn't bear it any longer.

In the distance, a huge group of people suddenly appeared.

There are knights, and there are carriages.

Those knights in black looked ordinary at first glance, but upon closer inspection, they were all fierce and murderous, and they were not easy to provoke.

Everyone behind Li Ji knew that today's unusual guest was Li Er, Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Er!

living emperor.

The Heavenly Khan chanted by many tribes in the Western Regions.

He even came to Shanzhou.

You know, there are so many state capitals and places in the world, and His Majesty Li Er has never been to many places in his life.

From now on, when Shanzhou people brag to the outside world, they can say: We lived here under the emperor's majesty.

When the emperor really came, the generals and officials could not help but tremble with excitement.

Finally, a carriage with six horses parallel came to the front.

Several eunuchs supported Li Er and jumped off the carriage.

Li Ji and others, Li Ji bowed and shouted: "Welcome Your Majesty!"

The sound is uniform.

After all, it has been rehearsed many times.

Li Er glanced around, then hurried forward, took Li Ji's hand, and said with emotion: "Li Aiqing, you have worked hard."

Li Ji panicked and said: "Your Majesty, minister, minister..."

He was about to say that he didn't work hard, but Li Er suddenly said in surprise: "Oh, where is my Chu'er?"

Li Ji: "..."

……

……

Chapter 417 Chen Chu Doesn't Move

Where is my Chu'er?

In one sentence, Li Ji was stunned.

Then, he came back to his senses.

What Li Er said should be Chen Chu.

It seems that His Majesty really likes Chen Chu very much.

Li Ji had no choice but to say: "Your Majesty, Marquis Pingxi and King Qi left Shanzhou a few days ago, and now, I'm afraid they will soon arrive in Luoxie City!"

what?

Li Er was stunned, and asked, "Chu'er went to Shanzhou? Before he left, did he tell you anything?"

Li Ji shook his head: "Marquis Pingxi only said that he was going to Luoxie City for a big event, but he didn't tell the minister the details."

Cheng Yaojin popped up suddenly: "Is the fifth brother stupid? Loose cities, but Songtsan Gampo's lair, a treasure like him, I don't know how many people are thinking about him, if he is detained by Songtsan Gampo what to do?"

Qin Qiong and the others also looked worried.

"Fifth Brother, it's really too risky to go to these cities!"

"No, we can't wait in Shanzhou. We must send fast horses to chase Fifth Brother. Even if he rushes to Luoxie City, we must quickly get him back."

Although the other ministers had no relationship with Chen Chu, they also knew that Chen Chu was a monster. Once Tubo detained him, he would use some means to make him submit.

Doesn't that mean that in the not-too-distant future, Tubo will also have those great weapons that Tang had?

In this way, Tubo will become a serious problem.

For a while, everyone persuaded Li Er to send troops to pursue Chen Chu quickly, and they must get Chen Chu back quickly.

Amidst the uproar, no one cared about Qi Wang Li Tai's death.

It seems that everyone has forgotten him.

Li Er, on the other hand, kept frowning without saying a word, looking in the direction of Luoxie City from time to time.

For a long time, when Cheng Yaojin and others scratched their heads and were at a loss, they saw Li Er suddenly raised his head and said: "I already know what Chu'er is going to do, he is trading his own safety for my eldest brother." Tang's achievements, I, must not drag him down, dear friends..."

"I'm waiting here!"

"Immediately enter the city. From now on, Shanzhou will enter the entire city on alert."

Li Er turned around and got into the carriage, without looking back, he rushed to the city in a hurry.

Many ministers are at a loss. They don't know why Li Er suddenly behaved like this.

However, people with keen minds like Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, etc., probably already guessed something.

The ministers did not dare to neglect, and hurried into the city.

……

……

Logical cities.

royal palace.

Songtsen Gampo gathered all the officials of the Tubo court together.

Compared with the early court of His Majesty Li Er in the Tang Dynasty, Songtsan Gampo's early court is really too shameless.

Although, everything here is an imitation of Datang.

However, the subordinates are not very obedient.

Therefore, during this period of time, during Songtsan Gampo's early court, he even sent people to invite the leaders of various tribes to attend in advance, otherwise, no one would come at all.

Because everyone is busy harvesting cotton.

After all, cotton is the real interest that is related to the life and death of a tribe.

Everyone's land, manpower and material resources are all bet on cotton.

As long as the cotton is sold, everyone will be prosperous.

But once the cotton falls into the hands, it will be lost forever, because the food on the land is gone, the cattle and sheep are gone, and once the cold winter comes, they will only be hungry.

Therefore, compared with cotton, this morning is nothing.

Today, Songtsen Gampo managed to gather everyone together.

Looking at the people below with their own thoughts, Songtsan Gampo's mood was very complicated.

The team is big, so it's not easy to take it.

After a while, Songtsan Gampo cleared his throat and said, "Everyone, now, Datang Pingxihou, that is, Chen Chu, the leader of the Western Datang Company, has come to Luoxie City in person. He must buy all the cotton in Tubo..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was roughly interrupted by Prime Minister Donna.

Dona stood up abruptly, and said, "Zanpu, but Chen Chu didn't see us."

"what?"

Songtsan Gampo was surprised: "Why?"

Dona explained: "Zanpu, you don't know. As soon as Chen Chu entered the city, I hurried to visit him when I heard the news, and discussed with him about buying cotton, but who knows, even me Prime Minister You came to the door several times, but he didn't see him behind closed doors... He didn't even say a reason, and we didn't know what to do. Zanpu, it's better to go see him in person and discuss it with him."

Next to him, Prime Minister Zuo got up abruptly, pointed at Dona and said, "No, absolutely not. Zanpu is the king of Tubo and has the same status as Emperor Tang. Chen Chu is just Marquis of Pingxi. He came to visit some cities. Come to pay respects to Zanpu, there is no reason to let Zanpu pay respects to him."
