The silence in the hall where the court meeting was being held was unusual, and only the sound of Li Shimin's anger could be heard.

"Li Jing has no news now? They've been in the steppe for so long. Li Shimin asked with a gloomy face.

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "Your Majesty, you have not yet received the battle report from the front, and the political hall has sent scouts to investigate many times. ”

Li Shimin slapped the low case in front of the bed heavily, and said angrily: "Just this lonely army goes deep, and the rest of the soldiers and horses are just watching like this?" Li Jing is the commander-in-chief, but he is brave, which is really angry! ”

Facing Li Shimin's anger. The eldest grandson Wuji said: "Your Majesty, Li Jing may want to get this earth-shattering feat......

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

"Lord Eldest Sun, you've gone too far!"

At this time, the martial ministers of the whole hall were angry, and they jumped out one after another to accuse the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Jing was desperate in front, and you were in the back with a bucket knife. Therefore, the people around the leader cannot be offended, and they will plot against you at the first opportunity, and you don't know what's going on.

His words pulled all the generals who sent troops with Li Jing together, which means that you, Li Jing, as the commander-in-chief, saw that there was merit to be gained, so let everyone stand still, and then you went deep alone, succeeded in one fell swoop, and achieved the highest military exploits of the Han people, and achieved the best military merits of the Han people. What do you make others think, oh, we're here for you? The ancients said: Don't suffer from widowhood but suffer from unevenness, that's the truth, as long as it is passed down to the bottom, those generals are all top-notch, and if you move your hands and feet a little, Li Jing may not be able to come back.

The whole hall was noisy. The eldest grandson Wuji stood in the hall but smiled slightly, and his smile was full of pride. Then he closed his eyes, and looked like he was completely outside, as if the quarrel between the civil and military officials in the court had nothing to do with him.

Li Shimin gritted his white teeth with a mouthful, he made a great determination to counterattack the Turks this time, and took advantage of the snow disaster on the grassland and the weakness of the Turks, mobilizing the elite to avenge the Weishui Alliance. He also knows that this reputation is not good in history, no matter how he beautifies it, this fact is here, so he has to prove that he is more suitable to be an emperor than them, and he wants to use the exploits that his predecessors have not done to achieve himself, this attack on the Eastern Turks is the first temptation, if it fails, it will be a slap in the face, and whoever destroys his plan is his life and death enemy.

"All silent!" Li Shimin shook his sleeves and shouted, and the noise in the hall suddenly quieted down.

Staring at the ministers of the DPRK and China, Li Shimin said word by word: "Counterattacking the Turks is my plan, if anyone dares to delay onlookers and sit idly by, resulting in the failure of the front-line soldiers, don't blame me!" ”

There was no wind in the hall, but the civil and military officials clearly felt a cold wind blowing in their faces. A layer of goosebumps involuntarily appeared on his body, but he didn't dare to say a word more.

At this time, the silence of the hall was broken by the sound of hurried footsteps.

Before the figure of the little eunuch appeared, he was heard shouting sharply and happily from a long distance: "Your Majesty, you will have good news!" Dingxiangjie has arrived! ”

The civil and military officials in the hall were in an uproar, and the eldest grandson Wuji also opened his eyes and turned his head to look outside the hall in disbelief.

The panting little eunuch had just run into the hall. I saw that the civil and military officials and the emperor were all looking at him as if they were going to eat people.

The little eunuch was startled. The condition of the launch hurriedly knelt down and pleaded: "Your Majesty, please forgive the slave and maid for the crime of making noise in the forbidden palace......"

"Don't talk nonsense, tell me quickly, what's going on in Dingxiang?" Li Shimin was so anxious that he was rude.

The little eunuch dared to raise his head and said happily: "Li Jing, the head of the Dingxiang Road march, reported eight hundred miles, in the first month of the fourth year of Zhenguan, the Tang army successfully attacked the evil yang ridge at night, and defeated the counterattack of the Turkic cavalry of 5,000, and killed more than 5,000 Turkic enemy soldiers in this battle, and the Turks were frightened to defend Dingxiang City and did not dare to attack, and the reinforcements led by Wei Chigong have arrived under Dingxiang City!" ”

The ministers of civil and military affairs in the hall were stunned for a moment, and then looked up to the sky and laughed, the hall that was depressed and gloomy just now is like a spring breeze thawing, and everything is as warm as recovery.

The little eunuch was also clever, and quickly held the book with both hands, and said: "This is the eight hundred miles of the great manager of Li Jing, please read it for Your Majesty." ”

Li Shimin took the good news, read it quickly, and then ...... also looked up to the sky and laughed.

"Okay, what a Li Jing!" After laughing, Li Shimin suddenly asked, "What are these horseshoes and compasses?" ”

The ministers in the palace were stunned. A very common question, uttered at this time, made all the ministers dumbfounded and unable to answer.

The eldest grandson Wuji's face was pale, and he gritted his teeth and bowed down: "Your Majesty, please give the good news to the ministers." ”

Kang Sumi just returned to the house to rest, he lived in poverty when he was young, and later married the daughter of a wealthy merchant with the help of his father-in-law's financial resources to turn over, but he was very proficient in business, and slowly became the richest man in the Western Regions and Turks. After people had more money, he wanted political status, and he spent a lot of effort to catch up with Ashina Dubi, who was still a Luo Khan at the time, and Ashina Dubi at that time was just a Mohedu.

After the death of Luo Khan, he and Ashina Ao went to see Princess Yicheng in person, and sent a lot of money, so that Princess Yicheng did not set up Ashina Khan, the son of Luo Khan, as Khan, but set up Ashina Want, called Jieli Khan, and Kang Sumi became a henchman of Jieli Khan and obeyed his words. However, now that the Tang army is strong, as a businessman, the most important thing is to avoid danger, and now he has to consider retreating.

At this time, someone came to report: "Master, there is a person who said that he was a friend of you when you were a child, and he asked to see him outside the house." ”

Kang Sumi was puzzled, but he brought him over to meet. When he saw the face of the future clearly, he said angrily: "Bayin, you still dare to come to see me, and the money you owe me has been repaid?" ”

"Kang Sumi, you and I grew up together, I came this time, you are so rich now, you don't care about the little money I owe you, I am here to give you a great fortune today, shouldn't you be polite to me?"

"You're polite, you've lied to me since you were a child, and I was going to turn over at that time, you cheated me out of my money and ran away, so I could only marry Tana, and I didn't believe a word of what you said."

"Don't talk about the past, if you hadn't married Tana, would you be where you are today? You should thank me. I am here for you, looking at the current situation, Jieli Khan is already a rebel, and no one knows how long he can hold out. Xue Yantuo and Tuli both left a way back for themselves and formed an alliance with the Tang Dynasty. Tang has already stationed troops under the city, I don't think you are a foolish person, you still have to give yourself, leave a way back... ”
