Traveling through Du He, Li Chengqian's rebellion begins

Ever since Li Chengqian's legs recovered, he rarely rode in a sedan chair in the palace.

Perhaps because he has been walking with a limp for so long, he is now extremely obsessed with walking normally.

Not long after Du He returned to the Ministry of Industry, he heard a series of greetings and greetings coming from outside the lobby of the Ministry.

"See His Highness the Crown Prince."

Upon hearing that Li Chengqian was coming to the Ministry of Works in person, Du He quickly stood up and prepared to go out to greet him.

As soon as he opened the door of the office, Li Chengqian, wearing a light yellow robe, strode towards him with a smile on his face.

Du He bowed quickly and said, "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Li Chengqian waved his hand, asked his personal guards to wait outside the door, and then walked into the office with his hands behind his back.

He sat in Du He's seat and flipped through the battle plan written by Du He without any hesitation.

After a while.

Li Chengqian nodded and praised: "Du He, I still think the battle plan you wrote is good."

"Drive out the wolves and devour the tigers, weaken the strength of Tubo, Eastern Turks, Tuyuhun and Xueyantuo, and then defeat them all together."

"In this way, we in the Tang Dynasty will no longer have any worries!"

Now that the military strength of the Tang Dynasty has reached its peak, Li Ji, Hou Junji, Niu Jinda, Su Dingfang, Xue Rengui, Xi Junmai and others are still in their prime.

As a group of veteran generals gradually grow old, the power of the Tang Dynasty army will be greatly weakened.

Du He shook his head and said, "Your Highness, although the plan is good, there will be countless risks in its implementation."

"There is no guarantee that these foreign races that have temporarily submitted to the Tang Dynasty will unite and rebel against the Tang Dynasty."

Tubo submitted to the Tang Dynasty, but it was not defeated.

Instead, Songtsen Gampo intended to marry a Tang princess in order to expand the power of Tubo and obtain a large amount of grain seeds and books.

The current Tubo power is at its peak, and it is not an easy task to defeat it.

Li Chengqian nodded, then changed the subject.

"Du He, the emperor has agreed to my request and pardoned Fang Yiai and Chai Lingwu."

"Later, a eunuch will rush to Sishui Road to call them back."

When he told his father about this request just now, his father showed a knowing smile on his face, which meant that his father also wanted the two of them to return to Chang'an.

Du He clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness is truly swift and resolute in his work. My admiration for you is like the endless flow of the river, or like the flooding of the Yellow River, which is out of control."

Li Chengqian curled his lips, then stood up and said, "Stop flattering me. You need to help me win over the Duke of Liang as soon as possible."

"no problem."

"Well, I will go back to the East Palace first."

"Your Highness, walk slowly."

Du He escorted Li Chengqian out of the Ministry of Industry before walking back to the office with a smile on his face.

These 6000 strings of cash and a hundred acres of fertile land are really easy to make.

Unfortunately, Princess Baling did not ask him for help, and Chai Lingwu also came back with her, which made him lose out on some money.

When the value is lowered.

Du He sent Master Feng to Princess Gaoyang's mansion and asked him to tell Gaoyang the good news.

The money was taken and the work was done. I told Gao Yang about it, which meant that everything was responded to.

After returning to the princess's mansion.

Li Yi rushed forward and asked, "My husband, why did the Emperor Gaoyang give you so much silver? And a deed for a hundred acres of land?"

Du He did not hide anything and told what happened today.

After a cup of tea.

Li Yi was astonished and said, "My husband, you made thousands of coins just by talking?"

"Sister Gaoyang lost so much money, she must be cursing you in her sleep at night."

She knew Gao Yang's character very well. He was narrow-minded and vindictive. Although she was asking her husband to do something for her, the price she paid was really high.

Du He smiled and said, "Yier, it's useless for her to get angry."

"Don't think it's easy for me to do this. If other officials were to do it, they might not be able to accomplish it."

Because the person who pleaded for Fang Yiai was the prince, and the weight of his words was heavy enough, Li Shimin readily agreed.

"Yeah." Li Yi nodded with a smile on his face.

The couple flirted with each other for a while, then walked hand in hand to the backyard.

...

The next day.

After the court meeting of all officials ended.

Just as Du He left the Taiji Hall, Fang Xuanling walked up to Du He and spoke to him gratefully.

"Nephew Du, thank you for pleading for my rebellious son."

"I owe you another favor!"

As he said this, he bowed to Du He.

Seeing Fang Xuanling saluting him, Du He hurriedly helped him up.

"Uncle Fang, there is no need to do this. You and my late father were close friends, so naturally I want to be friends with you, too."

“Perhaps my nephew and Brother Fang will also be able to make a name for themselves as Little Fangmou Duduan in the future.”

When Fang Xuanling heard Du He's words, a strange look appeared on his face.

There was a big conflict between his rebellious son and Du He, and now the King of Wei had fled to Japan. Not only did Du He not add insult to injury, he was also willing to become friends with the rebellious son.

This is really incredible.

Du He saw the astonishment on Fang Xuanling's face. He looked at Yu Chang and the doctor of the Fourth Division beside him, then said with a smile.

"Uncle Fang, if you are free, I would like to invite you to the Princess's Mansion for a drink."

Fang Xuanling said softly, "Nephew Du, it is better to do it today than to wait for a day. Come to my house tonight and I will treat you to a feast."

"it is good."

After Du He finished speaking, he left with the people from the Ministry of Industry.

There are many people here, so you can't talk about winning over Fang Xuanling, a senior official, here.

...

noon.

When Du He was about to go to the kitchen to eat, the guard Du Wu came over to report.

"Master, Miss Yin wants to see you."

Du He said softly, "Go to the Duke of Han's Mansion."

As he said this, he changed direction and walked towards Hanguang Gate.

Now Yin Yushan has moved into the Duke of Korea's mansion, and she sent someone to find me, so she should be preparing to set off to Xiangzhou to get the treasure.

Half an hour later.

Du He came to the Duke of Korea's mansion in Yankangfang, and saw Yin Yushan, who was wearing a gauze dress, in the bedroom in the backyard.

After the two of them drank for a while, Yin Yushan said in a low voice.

"Du Lang, I plan to go to Xiangzhou tomorrow morning."

"Okay." Du He responded, and then said: "I will ask Du Wu to bring 10 attendants to assist you later. If you have any questions, you can go to Xiangzhou Changshi Wang Xuance."

Yin Yushan nodded slightly.

She stood up, bit her red lips and said, "Du Lang, after this farewell, we may not see each other again for two months."

"I will...take off your armor!"

...

Two hours later.

Du He walked out of the room, holding on to the wall.

"A sheep walking into a tiger's mouth!"

Du He muttered something, and then, under the indescribable gaze of his maid Xiao Cui, he slowly walked towards the lobby.

After instructing Du Wu and 10 attendants to follow Yin Yushan to Xiangzhou, Du He, escorted by Zhang Shizheng, Feng Shijin and others, rushed to the Duke of Liang's Mansion in Wubenfang.

Winning over Fang Xuanling is a strategic move.

With Fang Xuanling's support, Li Shimin was not afraid of the tricks played by Zhangsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang in his later years.

In the side hall of the Duke of Liang's Mansion.

Fang Xuanling did not sit in the main seat, but sat opposite Du He.

He raised the wine bottle and gestured to Du He.

"Nephew Du, I'd like to offer you a toast."
