"What does the angel mean that Gao Chang doesn't have to bear these military rations alone?" Embarrassed, Prime Minister Gao Chang was reminded by Wang Xuance's words, and suddenly there was a feeling of brightness in his eyes.

Yes, Datang came here for the entire Western Regions, and there is no reason for only the Gaochang family to bear the heavy military expenses. The military expenditure of 30,000 people, if only the Gaochang family bears it, it is a burden, but if it is borne by 36 countries, it is another matter.

Moreover, it seems that there is also a lot of room for maneuver in which one should pay how much military rations and who should pay how much military spending, and if it is done well, Gaochang may not have to spend anything to have a strong 'barrier'.

"Of course, it is unfair to Gao Chang not to bear it alone, especially if your country is the initiator of this peacekeeping operation." Wang Xuance said with a smile.

"Angel Mingjian." Gao Changcheng echoed, the smile on his face became brighter and brighter, and finally he even took his own wine pot and wine cup to Wang Xuance's table and poured the wine for him: "It's just that if the alliance is formed, who will preside over it?" ”

"Datang is not familiar with the Western Regions, and Datang will not participate in the matter of presiding over the alliance." A small country is a small country, and it always has to worry about something that is completely unnecessary, if this kind of thing is placed in Datang, it is completely something that does not need to be talked about, who wants to preside over it, as long as the final agreement Datang is satisfied.

Wang Xuance thought so, raised the wine cup to signal to the prime minister, and drank it all, while Prime Minister Gao Chang laughed with him and dried the wine with Lao Wang.

And at the same time as they drank the wine, in the Tang Dynasty, seven thousand miles away, Li Chengqian was also performing his coming-of-age ceremony, and at the same time drank the first cup of wine in adulthood.

At the beginning of the fifth year of Zhenguan, Li Chengqian was supposed to perform the crown ceremony in February, that is, the coming-of-age ceremony, but because the farmers were busy at that time, Comrade Lao Li changed Xiao Li's coming-of-age ceremony to October in order not to take away the agricultural time, so Li Chengqian decisively grew up for half a year.

But fortunately, Li Chengqian doesn't care about this, it doesn't matter to him when he is an adult, in his opinion, this matter is of no other use than tossing.

The crown ceremony is the Zhou ceremony, through the Han Dynasty, Wei and Jin, to the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and so on until the later Wuhu Chaohua is not even mentioned, even the former Sui is not very popular, until Lao Li became the emperor, this is the matter of the crown ceremony picked up again.

However, the crown ceremony of the Tang Dynasty is still much weaker than in the previous Han Dynasty, otherwise Lao Li would not have changed the time from February to October.

Anyway, Li Chengqian thinks that his form of crown ceremony is greater than reality, and the name of the crown ceremony is just a form pursued by Lao Li, of course, this may also be that Lao Li is justifying his one-eighth Hu bloodline.

The three-day toss will not be repeated here, in short, Li Chengqian later slept for two days in the 'Lanruo Temple' before recovering.

When he finally rested, the old man came to summon him to ask him again, and Xiao Li, who still wanted to sleep, could only helplessly drag his tired body to the Manna Hall to face the saint.

"Alright, don't come here, come and see this thing." Entering the study, without waiting for Li Chengqian to see the salute, Li Er beckoned to him.

"What?" Li Chengqian leaned over in confusion, stood beside the old man, and looked at the table.

"You made this thing again, right?" Li Er pointed to a map of Mobei on the table and said.

"Uh, yes." Li Chengqian nodded.

"Is there any other place? Why didn't you take it out sooner? Lao Li frowned and asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, there is a whole map of the entire Turkic region, and all of them are stored in the military headquarters." Li Chengqian didn't know what kind of madness the old man was making.

This map was brought back by the group of students brought back by Changsun Chong and others, and after they came back, they were all put in the military department, and Lao Li didn't go out to fight, so it was useless to put it here for him, but he didn't dare to say this to the old man.

Li Er turned his head, looked at Li Chengqian, and asked after a while, "There is no one in Datang?" ”

"What do you want to do in Datang? This thing is for war, and if we don't fight a civil war, it's useless to ask for something within the territory. Li Chengqian shook his head and said that there was no map of the territory of Datang.

"Then let your people draw and draw a map of the entire territory of Datang." Li Er turned his head and looked at the wall behind him, as if looking for something.

"The whole territory? Father, our territory is expanding every day, how can we draw the whole territory? Li Chengqian's face was bitter, and he complained.

"Expand? And where is it expanded? Li Er snorted and looked at this son who was a little unconcerned.

"Father, don't you think we should get another Anxi Protectorate? Uncle Jiangxia is in the west, how can an army of 50,000 sweep the Western Regions, right? Li Chengqian felt that the old man seemed to have forgotten about the Western Regions, so he couldn't help but remind.

Sure enough, Li Er suddenly said: "Western Regions! By the way, don't you say that I almost forgot about the Dao Sect. ”

There were too many things during this time, Li Er was first busy coaxing his wife, then thinking about his son, and then dealing with the more than 20,000 Turkic prisoners he caught, so he naturally forgot about the army sent to the Western Regions.

"Okay, let's go, remember to have someone draw a map of the entire territory of Datang." Thinking of Li Daozong's matter, Li Er suddenly came to his senses, sent Li Chengqian away in three or two sentences, and then arranged for someone to recruit Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others to discuss matters in the Ganlu Palace.

With a stomach full of depression, Li Chengqian left the old man's study, feeling as if he had been abandoned.

"Brother, what are you doing here?" Just when Li Chengqian was holding a small tree to vent, Changle came out of nowhere, followed by Xiao Wu, the ghost girl.

"Oh, it's all right, I'll trim the little tree. Haven't you heard people say that small trees don't repair and don't straighten seedlings, and people don't repair and correct. Seeing his tangled side by his sister, Li Chengqian found a reason to prevaricate at random.

"What are you doing here?" Changle wrinkled his little nose: "Mei'er and I are going to the queen mother, will you go?" ”

"Go ahead, I'll have something to do in a moment." Li Chengqian habitually pulled Xiao Wu over and pulled her pigtails.

"Brother Prince, stop fiddling with my hair." Xiao Wu shook his head, broke his hair out of Li Chengqian's clutches, pulled his sleeve and asked, "Is there anything interesting lately?" Is it okay to count me in? ”

Li Chengqian took advantage of Xiao Wu's uneasiness, and pulled her pigtail again: "Wait, there will be fun after a while, you go to the queen mother first, I'll go to Uncle Hejian Wang." ”
