Qin Qiong told Liu Mu: "Although the process of this new election plan has changed a lot, the fundamental difference is the attitude of the scholars, as far as I know, there are more than 7,000 applicants, and ninety percent and half are children of the scholars. ”

Liu Mu was still puzzled: "This is a good thing, why are you nervous." ”

"No, the eldest grandson Wuji wants to increase his prestige above the court, and he will come to you for help. Fang and Du Ergong let me tell you, stay out of the world. ”

"I understand, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and a new round of court disputes will appear. The officials of the Qin Palace's Mansion will inevitably ascend, and the eldest grandson Wuji, as the future uncle, must have a little ambition. But the rest of the Qin Palace's mansion didn't want him to become a powerful minister, because the eldest grandson Wuji was a small-minded and selfish person. ”

Qin Qiong was secretly surprised when she heard Liu Mu's comment on the eldest grandson Wuji.

"Rest assured, I'm not in the same group as him, if it weren't for the face of the future world's first sage, I wouldn't have bothered to talk to him." Liu Mu added.

Liu Mu doesn't like the eldest grandson Wuji, it can be said that from the perspective of his later life's history of the entire early Tang Dynasty, the person he hates the most is the eldest grandson Wuji.

It can be said that without the eldest grandson Wuji, there would be no Anshi Rebellion.

All because of the eldest grandson Wuji's greed for power.

Qin Qiong said again: "I didn't let you fight against him, just let you not help him." ”

"I'm a small country man, and I can help him, the first uncle in the world." Liu Mu's words Qin Qiong just laughed, as long as Liu Mu's answer didn't participate. Fang and Du are very fair people, they are dedicated to the Tang Dynasty, they are not people who are attached to the powerful.

Liu Mu added: "Leaving Wei Zheng is to leave behind the ruthless man who bites the eldest grandson Wuji." ”

"I made a note of it. Say the second thing. Qin Qiong didn't have the slightest comment, he had already gotten what he wanted to hear, and immediately changed the topic.

"There's a big problem. The Tongye Protector brought the treasure equivalent to 10,000 gold and 5,000 high-grade war horses, and personally went to Datang to seek an alliance, of course, if possible, he still hoped to be able to make peace. But ......"

Liu Mu originally planned to interject, but Qin Qiong's word made Liu Mu put down the bowl.

Something must have happened, but something big.

"However, Tong Ye Hu died, and he, along with his two sons, dozens of cronies, and nearly 10,000 elite riders died. Jieli attacked him, and this time he did it beautifully, and less than three hundred people escaped. This happened two months ago, and it was the news that the mud had sent back through the people you had arranged for in the Western Turks. ”

"Who's on top?"

"It doesn't matter who ascends to the throne, what matters is that this event is troublesome, the great nobles of the Western Turks are watching, and many small states are also watching. Looking at the attitude of the Tang Dynasty, but at the moment the Tang Dynasty does not have the strength to fight with Jieli for the whole country, so the sage immediately decided to take the Zen throne and use the new emperor to ascend the throne for a period of time. ”

Yanagi stood up and slammed the bowl on the ground, "I'll fuck his Jieli." ”

"Angry, angry, does it work? Can your soldiers fight against Jieli now? Qin Qiong was very calm and continued to eat noodles.

Liu Mu went around in circles when he was in the house, his soldiers could not be, and the real weakness of such a unit was not combat effectiveness, but logistics. Fighting in the territory of Datang, logistics are still guaranteed. If we want to go deep into the grasslands, we need to mobilize 100,000 people to support logistics to ensure that 5,000 combat troops are guaranteed.

This is also the reason why Liu Mu is reluctant to let Li Shimin use those big killing weapons.

Changing the pattern of warfare is not only the equipment of the combat troops, but more importantly, logistics, and more importantly, national strength. Take the later generations before the willow wood crossed, I believe that if it were not for the national strength, it would be better to have ten aircraft carrier formations.

The higher the technology of the battle, the greater the average material consumption per soldier.

The cheapest is the Homo sapiens tribe with wooden sticks to fight, as long as each person carries a wooden stick, you can hunt and march at the same time.

After Liu Mu turned around the house for dozens of times, he smiled: "Big brother-in-law, call a reliable person in." ”

Qin Qiong took out a bell and shook it gently, and immediately a person entered the house and bowed down to listen to the order.

"Send a letter to Laizhou, and ask Liu Renliang to take the three thousand elites he has trained for so long to the direction of Zhongshou City. Send another letter to Huayuan, and ask them to prepare 10,000 sets of rapid Turkic cavalry preparations, which will be exported and then transported to Zhongshou City. Then prepare the horses, and I will enter the palace. ”

Qin Qiong nodded, and the guard bowed and left.

Then Qin Qiong got up: "I'll enter the palace with you." ”

"Yes." Liu Mu nodded and kicked the broken bowl away, scolding viciously: "It's really not peaceful, I just returned to Chang'an." ”

Chang'an Taiji Palace, Li Yuan's study.

In fact, when Li Yuan ordered the renovation of Longqingfang to begin, it was already a signal that Li Yuan was ready to take a Zen position.

At this time, in the face of the upcoming enthronement ceremony, the father and son had been sitting face-to-face for almost an hour, and no one took the initiative to speak. It's not that they're vindictive, but they're in a very big trouble.

That is, to establish a prince.

One of the enthronement ceremonies was to establish a crown prince, and Li Shimin watched his eldest brother Li Jiancheng lose his mind a little bit by himself, and went crazy step by step.

The crown prince is definitely the most stressed.

What's more, he is only twenty-eight years old, Li Chengqian is only nine years old, and this prince doesn't know how many years he will have to be.

Outside the study, a little eunuch came to Peng Hai, who was guarding the door, and whispered a few words.

After Peng Hai hesitated, he pushed the door and entered the study.

Li Yuan glanced up at Peng Hai, he had already ordered not to disturb, but Peng Hai still came in. So Li Yuan asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Liu Juma and Yiguo Gong ask to meet."

Peng Hai would definitely not want to stand up and scold, but any of Liu Mu and Qin Qiong would be received when they entered the palace at night, so Peng Hai came in to report.

Li Yuan instructed: "Light a few more lamps and prepare refreshments." ”

"Yes!" Peng Hai stepped back.

After a while, Liu Mu and Qin Qiong entered, and Li Yuan motioned for the two to sit down.

"Father, Erchen is very pitiful, it has only been less than five hours since he returned to Chang'an, but there is no way, who let someone find trouble with Datang, Erchen is going to go to Zhongshou City to take a turn, to see if it is possible for Jieli to return the gold and horses that robbed us." Liu Mu grinned and poured tea for Li Yuan.

Li Yuan sneered twice: "So, you tell me, who are you sending meritorious service to this time?" ”

"It's still your old man's sight, that's the thing. You think, my third sister is not young, and she has been engaged for a while, so she always has to get married. Although Liu Renliang has some merits, he is still a military attache from the fourth grade, and he does not even have the rank of a general. Blame the pitiful. ”

"Yes, yes. As long as he has enough merit, the title of General of the Right Guards is just vacant. Li Yuan also replied with a smile.
