I'm about to become an immortal, do you want me to be a prince?

Even Pingkangfang has started to play the commercial routine of discounts.

When Li Mu received the news in Jingnan, the corners of his mouth twitched. What the hell, Old Li is becoming more and more international, and he has learned how to spend on holidays.

But this is not the point. The point is that there is one thing mentioned in the news Li Mu received.

That is, the imperial court intends to set up a Protectorate in the Western Regions, named: Anxi Protectorate.

Li Mu is very interested in this news. Judging from this urgency, it is estimated that there will be Anbei Protectorate and Annan Protectorate in the future.

It would be sour to say that the people involved in the Duhufu are all their own people.

As for the so-called Anxi Protectorate's Great Protectorate, who is it?

Don't know yet, it's still in the running.

Competitors with more potential are Li Daliang, Xue Wanche, and Xue Wanjun.

Hou Junji and Chai Shao probably won't stay outside and will probably be transferred back to the center.

According to Li Mu's thinking, the best candidate is of course Li Daliang.

Without him, one of our own.

If it is really necessary to spend money on investment at that time, then Li Mu will definitely support it to the end.

Use money to pile up Li Daliang directly.

Then there was news from the Western Regions.

It is said that many Western Region businessmen expressed their willingness to do business with SF Express.

There are all kinds of Western Region specialties, but he is most concerned about two of them.

One is black slave trading, and the other is Tianzhu monks trading rice paper.

Needless to say about black slaves, at present, let alone black slaves, even chimpanzees, as long as they can be trained, he will not refuse anyone.

As for trading rice paper, he realized a problem.

That is, the benefits of mastering the means of knowledge dissemination.

In other words, it monopolizes the right to knowledge and education.

In Datang, he didn't dare to do this, because he was afraid that Li Shimin would kill him.

But after leaving Datang, do you still listen to Li Shimin?

This is not possible.

It's understandable to give you the face of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty within the territory of the Tang Dynasty, but what do you want to do outside of the Tang Dynasty?

You can't do anything to me, you bite me, a little bit...

However, this matter has to be discussed in the long run, and it cannot be done in one step at a time.

Maybe you can support a certain person or a certain force first.

Anyway, it will take a long time for Datang to digest the entire Western Region.

I have time to plan slowly.

According to the traditional method, the fastest way to build power is to engage in metaphysics.

Religious stuff never goes out of style.

And as it happens, he has this condition.

Too much teaching, a ready-made religious foundation.

Anhisa, ready-made religious wand.

Then cooperate with me to do some miracles or something, and I can absorb a wave of fanatical believers in minutes.

Don't forget, he himself is a cultivator, so it's easy to do some miracles.

For example, one day the Great Protector An Xisa suddenly said, "I have to be guided by the Supreme Lord, asserting that the Lord of a certain country will not live for three days."

Then Li Mu directly found someone to carry a pack of explosives on his back, and launched a wave of suicide attacks, killing the ruler of a small country with a bang. Isn't this a proper miracle?

If it is impossible to go to the Western Regions by yourself, at most you will bear some sins.

"To this day, my Tang Dynasty is finally able to stand shoulder to shoulder with a strong man."

This is what Faber said.

Fu Bo is an old man who has experienced the Sui and Tang dynasties.

Seeing that Datang is now becoming stronger at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Stepping on the Turks, punching the Western Regions.

There is a faint tendency to be comparable to the predecessors.

Immediately felt emotional.

The reason why it is said to be comparable to a strong man is not to surpass the former man.

Because as far as it is concerned, it is true that it is not yet possible to surpass the results of a strong man.

Although Datang has destroyed the Turks now, this is the biggest achievement.

Do you want to say whether the Turks are strong?

That must be strong.

But no matter how strong it is, it is naturally inferior to the Huns.

Because, the Turkic people went up for several generations, and their ancestors were the younger brothers of the Huns.

Let's talk about the countries of the Western Regions.

Which one was not trampled underfoot by the Huns.

Such a powerful empire was abruptly wiped out by the Han Dynasty.

Opening the history books, the records about the former Han Dynasty are full of the word "great".

Therefore, Datang's defeat of the Turks is really far from surpassing the Great Han.

It's only now that one foot is on the back of the Western Regions, can I make a comment, "It's comparable to the former Han."

Li Mu also felt that Uncle Fu's words were very pertinent.

At least he didn't brag about Li Shimin like some unscrupulous sycophants in the court.

Li Shimin's current achievements are of course excellent.

But after all, it is still a little bit worse than Qin Huang Han Wu.

At most, he is worthy of the honorary title of "Heavenly Khan" on his head.

Yang Guang is also "Heavenly Khan".

But compared with Li Shimin's "Heavenly Khan", his "Heavenly Khan" is far behind.

It's like the difference between Kang Shuaibo and Master Kong.

Obviously, Yang Guang is pretending, and Li Shimin is now acting as awesome.

Li Shimin is also a rare self-aware monarch.

He knew how much he weighed, and compared with Qin Huang Han Wu, he was a little bit less gold.

But compared with this idiot Yang Guang, he is still very proud.

I killed the Turkic guy, so Yang Guangxing?

Laozi fucked Goguryeo, did he Yang Guangxing?

I held down the Western Regions fiercely, did he Yang Guangxing?

This is the difference.

This is the gap.

Therefore, Lao Tzu is the real Tian Khan!

Chapter 279 It's over, now it's over!

In the blink of an eye, summer is over.

The time has come to September.

September of the ninth year of Zhenguan.

Autumn is a season that represents a good harvest.

In fact, it was indeed a bumper harvest.

Jingnan.

Li Mu's first batch of experimental hybrid rice species has finally been harvested.

Although the seeds of hybrid rice cost him many, many merit points.

Almost all the merit points obtained from the Western Regions were directly spent on these seeds.

But fortunately, seeing the harvest now, it is worth the money.

The samurai Xun was as happy as if he had rejuvenated himself.

Smiling like a husky all day long.

Especially when seeing Li Mu, it was like seeing his own father.

Li Mu himself felt disgusted by that kind of intimacy.

Then, to celebrate the grain harvest.

someday.

Samurai Xun invited Li Mu to visit his house, saying that he wanted to celebrate and express his gratitude by the way.

By the way, I want to ask him something.

Although Li Mu was scruples about Li Shimin's views, he was not cautious about everything.

It's still okay to go to the old Wu's house to be a guest for a meal or something.

So Li Mu dressed up handsomely early in the morning, and went to the old Wu's house as a guest.

The two daughters of the samurai Xun were also eating together.

It's not that Lao Wu is so unscrupulous that he calls his two daughters out to "accompany the guests".

Rather, the fact that he wanted to ask Li Mu was related to these two chicks.

Therefore, the presence of the parties is required.

Then, when he was almost drunk, Lao Wu spoke.

"Gou Zheng, the old man is going to escort the autumn grain to Beijing this time, and he needs to leave for a while, please go to the mansion today, besides the banquet, I have one more thing to ask."

Li Mu now feels sick whenever he hears the word "Gou Zheng".

Sometimes he even wished he could go to Chang'an to tear down Li Shimin's kennel.

But the matter has come to this point, and it will not work if you don't accept it.

It was a basic exercise for ancient people to take the table characters when they became adults, and they would have to experience it sooner or later.

And Li Shimin is not only the emperor, but also his elders. It is only natural for him to give Li Mu his name.

Li Mu couldn't help but refuse.

What else can I do besides enjoying it with my eyes closed?

"Oh? What's the matter?" Li Mu replied.

"It's about Shun Niang and Mei Niang."

The corner of Li Mu's mouth twitched. Could this guy be giving his daughter away?

The warrior Xun looked at his two daughters dotingly, and then continued, "After the old man left home, he was afraid that Shun Niang and Mei Niang would be left unattended, so he wanted to entrust them to Gou Zheng."

Wait, you wait, you must wait.
