Chapter 444: Lack of Talent
Although the entire Datang finals have not yet been promoted, some rumors have been revealed.
It was at this time that Xue Rengui finally returned to Chang'an, just after he came back, the news spread throughout Chang'an.
There are even gambling houses that have opened bets on this aspect, such as Jue Jin, or Level 2, or even Level 3, as long as you dare to bet.
As for the official position, not too many people pay attention to it, the reason is very simple, Xue Rengui's original position was not too high, but he held real power.
Therefore, there may be a rise above the official position, but the change will not be too big.
The first thing after entering Chang'an, Xue Rengui entered the palace first, and obviously this An Beibo was not the young man he was at the beginning.
There is still a lot of growth in this aspect, of course, if there is no growth, then Liu Yingchun will naturally remind this husband.
In the court, Li Shimin asked Xue Rengui a lot about things outside the Guan, mainly about the aftermath.
"I wonder what Rengui thinks of other Turkic tribes?"
After Li Shimin finished asking about some basic things, he asked about another thing.
After all, it was in Chang'an, and even Li Shimin wanted other Turkic tribes to do so, although some tribes had declared themselves to the Tang Dynasty.
But so what, to know that this kind of covenant can't bind anything.
Li Shimin is obviously not the kind of soft-hearted person, but it is still necessary to see what some people think.
For example, Xue Rengui didn't want to hear the thoughts of some Guogong, but that some Guogong was not like young people, they had their own considerations in all aspects, maybe they were hiding something.
"Your Majesty, since the Jieli tribe was wiped out, the other tribes in the grassland have settled down a lot."
"However, the teacher once said that the hearts of those who are not of my race will be different, and although they are safe now, they may not be able to do so in a few years."
.......
Xue Rengui didn't understand the emperor's plan, so he told his analysis.
In his opinion, it is right to send troops to sweep away the entire steppe, and letting these Turks go is undoubtedly a problem for raising tigers.
Li Shimin nodded, listening to Xue Rengui's analysis, he obviously had a lot of intentions, but he still couldn't change his thinking so quickly.
Or that this emperor still needs some face, and he can't just tear up the alliance with other Turkic tribes soon after defeating Jieli.
"Rengui, step back first."
In the end, Li Shimin's voice sounded, and Xue Rengui retired without hesitation.
Entering the palace for the first time was to express his loyalty, but it didn't mean that Xue Rengui didn't want to return to his mansion immediately.
"It seems that the north is going to let go first, and I don't want to hand over these grassland tigers to Gao Ming and others to solve."
Li Shimin's eyes flickered and he muttered softly, unconsciously, this emperor's thinking had obviously changed a lot.
If it was before, Li Shimin still had a lot of scruples about tearing up the covenant, but since listening to Ya's father's manipulation of Annan.
Immediately, I realized that since there is no morality, then create morality.
It was really the interests that moved the heart of this emperor and supplied the granary of the entire Tang Dynasty.
The same is true for dealing with these tribes in the north, who will threaten the border problem of the Tang Dynasty as long as they exist for a day.
However, the current Datang is still insufficient, even if it kills Jieli, but Li Shimin knows that this is the result of Jieli's betrayal and separation from his relatives before.
.......
The stars under the night were exceptionally bright, and Shu An in the academy did not fall asleep early like before.
Occasionally looking at this beautiful night, even Shu An's heart couldn't help but be very happy.
This kind of beauty from nature is irresistible even to Shu An, and Shu An naturally knows the news about Xue Rengui.
"Master, do you think Rengui will be able to get to the position of the county lord this time?"
Laifu on the side couldn't help but ask with some curiosity on his face, to know if he could reach the position of the county lord.
Then it is already comparable to most of the people above the court, and you must know that many old people who follow His Majesty are just like this.
"I'm afraid it's a little difficult."
Shu An shook his head and said, if this is the last battle of the Tang Dynasty, then the county prince is fine.
But there are many alien races on the border of the Tang Dynasty, and Xue Rengui is only a few years old now.
Therefore, if the county prince is a prince, it is very likely that it will not be sealed, and the probability of the county prince is still relatively large.
After all, if he makes meritorious service again in the future, then there will be no reward to be rewarded, and Li Shimin will naturally not be so stupid.
"It's a pity."
Laifu showed a look of helplessness on his face and said, since there is a sentence from the master, it is basically eight or nine and ten.
"Have you found the craftsman who made the crossbow machine?"
Shu An's voice sounded, this was what he had explained before, but he hadn't asked yet.
"Master, this matter is not going well."
"Before, I went to the Ministry of Industry with the help of some connections."
"It's just that although there are rumors and drawings for crossbow machines, no one will make them."
......
Hearing what his master asked, Laifu said with a wry smile on his face.
The main thing is that the crossbow machine can't be used, naturally no one will, and in the previous war-torn era, many skilled craftsmen have been exposed all over the world.
For example, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty took many craftsmen to Yangzhou, and those craftsmen did not come back after that.
Shu An's brows were furrowed, it was not a ballista yet, which meant that the crossbow machine still needed to be improved.
Naturally, skilled craftsmen who can make crossbow machines are needed, otherwise it will be too slow.
"Now recruit carpenters in Chang'an."
In the end, Shu An said quietly, this is a way to be regarded as no way.
Before, if there were people in the Ministry of Industry who were familiar with crossbow machines, it would be good to borrow them, but I didn't expect that there would be none.
If you borrow the carpenter from the Ministry of Labor, then you have to learn how to make a crossbow machine again, so it is better to hire some carpenters yourself.
Slowly mix the sugar yourself, so that the borrowed person has to return it after learning it.
And maybe there are some carpenter masters in the folk, such as the same thing in the previous Quyuan plow.
"Yes, sir!"
Laifu didn't hesitate to say that this matter seems to be a little more urgent.
"Well, send someone else to Yangzhou to have a look."
"Maybe the carpenter that Yang Guang took away before had some capable people."
Shu An finally did not give up on the carpenters that Yang Guang took away.
After all, Yang Guang still has to repair dragon boats and so on, it is estimated that he will not let go of those carpenters, and he will definitely take away most of the capable carpenters.
Don't give up even if there is a glimmer of hope, know that in addition to the ballista, the shipyard does not know what is going on, and there are many places where carpenters are needed.
