Datang: The prince of salted fish was overheard by Li Er

However, the ministers present did not know the special way of communication between Li You and Li Shimin.

Immediately, someone curled their lips in disdain for Li You.

They also now know the relationship between Li You and Pei Ju.

In their opinion, as long as they have a little interest in the Turkic envoy's affairs, they will not be speechless in front of Li Shimin if they ask a few questions.

Faced with such a good opportunity, how could they miss it.

"Prince Chu, did Mr. Pei have any instructions before you left?"

The person who spoke was called Changsun Jiaqing, and his father, Changsun Anshi, was the cousin of Changsun Wuji and Changsun Empress.

After all, grandson Jiaqing is also Li Chengqian's cousin.

In the fifth year of Wude, he served as the attendant of his eldest son Li Chengqian according to the teaching order of King Qin Li Shimin.

After Li Shimin ascended the throne, he was granted the title of Doctor Donggongmen logically.

The eldest grandson Jiaqing was seriously ill at home some time ago, and after learning about Li Chengqian and eldest grandson Anye's confusion, he also returned to the East Palace with illness.

After experiencing the incident with the eldest grandson Anye, Li Chengqian hated Li You to the bone, and even the eldest grandson Jiaqing became less friendly.

Li You turned his head and glanced at Changsun Jiaqing, but nodded with a smile and did not speak.

[The history books say that you died young in the ninth year of Zhenguan. I think you are sickly, and I am afraid that you will be lying in bed for the last few years. 】

[Forget it, I'm too lazy to tell you about this, lest I make you angry, and I won't even be able to live these nine years. 】

hiss!
Li Shimin gasped again.

Although this is not the first time he has heard from Li You's heart about life and death.

But every time he heard it, it still surprised him.

Hearing the news of the death of grandson Jiaqing this time, Li Shimin couldn't help but feel a little sorrow for the queen.

The eldest grandson Jiaqing is the eldest son of the younger generation of the eldest grandson lineage, and it can be said that he has shouldered the important mission of making the eldest grandson family continue to prosper.

And he lived up to the expectations of his family, and he was very talented in literature at a young age.

It was also for this reason that he was selected by Li Shimin as the prince's attendant to supervise Li Chengqian's studies.

'Since the bastard knows when Jiaqing died, maybe there is a way, I'll set up another day! '

Li Shimin's self-confidence was greatly increased by setting up a trick before how to tame the cow. He felt that he had found a way to deal with Li You.

And every time he set up a bureau, he found a trace of the shadow of fighting the world back then.

Such a challenge made Li Shimin quite unable to stop, and whenever he was free, he was thinking about how to play against Li You.

Now about the eldest grandson Jiaqing, it is naturally Li Shimin's next goal.

Li Shimin was dreaming, but someone above the court stood up to relieve Li You's embarrassment.

The one who opened the mouth was naturally Zheng Yuanxuan, Minister of Honglu Temple.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Pei has already told me about this matter in detail."

According to Pei Ju's information, this time Jieli Khan really came to do business.

In order to gather more slaves, Jieli Khan even had some small conflicts with his nephew Tuli Khan.

In the end, Jieli Khan conquered several small tribes that were relatively close to Tuli Khan on weekdays, and took all the people of these small tribes as slaves.

It was precisely because of this that after some analysis by Pei Ju and Zheng Yuanxuan, they felt that these slaves would never rebel.

Hearing this, Qu Tutong on the side was very happy.

Recently, the water conservancy project in Guanzhong is in full swing, whether it is cement, bullocks or slaves, they all played a big role.

He came to court today in the hope that he could directly obtain these slaves and prairie cattle from Li Shimin.

After the start of the water conservancy project, many aristocratic families saw how to use slaves, so they also learned to use them.

And the method of domesticating grassland cattle spread immediately.

Immediately, the prices of slaves and grassland cattle rose, especially cattle, whose prices had risen more than tenfold.

As a result, Qu Tutong felt that his money was not enough.

Fortunately, Li You was straightforward and promised that the money used to buy slaves and cattle would be fully covered by the household department.

After all, although the Ministry of Households paid the money, Li You gave it readily, and he also wanted to save some money for the Ministry of Households.

In fact, what Qu Tutong didn't know was that the delivery of these cattle and slaves had already been completed in the Turkic grasslands.

The real owner is the Ministry of Households.

This left-handed and right-handed business, no matter how expensive it is.

If it is an ordinary businessman, he will also worry about the taxation issue.

However, the tax is also the Ministry of household.

At this time, not only Qu Tutong felt happy, but Li Jing and Li Ji on the side also looked at each other and smiled with sympathy.

Turkic grasslands began to chaos.

There are three powerful nomadic tribes on the grassland today: East Turks, West Turks and Xue Yantuo.

Among them, Xue Yantuo is relatively weak, and now Xue Yantuo is ostensibly surrendering to the Eastern Turks.

After Yehu Khan, the Western Turkic ruler, came to power, there were always voices of dissatisfaction, and there were often internal battles.

In the face of Li Jing and Li Ji, the two great generals of the Tang Dynasty, neither of these two is sufficient evidence.

The biggest threat to Datang is the Eastern Turks.

The Eastern Turkic Khan Jieli Khan is also a man of great talent and general strategy.

After succeeding his elder brother Chuluo Khan, he married his stepmother and sister-in-law, Princess Yicheng of the Sui Dynasty, as his wife. At the same time, he made Shibobi, the son of his elder brother Shibi Khan, the Tuli Khan, in order to stabilize the major tribes in the Eastern Turks.

After pacifying the East Turkic interior, he inherited his father and brother's foundation, had a strong army, and sent troops many times to prevent the unification of the Tang Dynasty.

After the unification of the Tang Dynasty, they still invaded the frontiers year after year, killing officials and people, and robbing property.

After Li Shimin ascended the throne, the Eastern Turkic soldiers came to the Weishui River and made a Weishui alliance that made Li Shimin humiliated. They demanded a lot of money and treasures before they were willing to return them.

In the eyes of Li Jing and others, the strength of East Turks is due to their unity.

It was Jieli Khan who gathered the hearts of the people on the grassland to pose a powerful threat to Datang.

But now, under the lure of profit, Jieli Khan actually made an attack on a small tribe to obtain slaves.

It appears that the unity of the Eastern Turks will quickly crumble.

Li Jing and Li Ji's eyes met, and they looked at Li Shimin again.

I admire Li Shimin's plan to trade with Turks even more.

Datang paid only some luxuries that the common people don't use at all, but what they got was a lot of gold and labor.

But as far as the transaction itself is concerned, Datang has already made a lot of money.

Coupled with the fact that it caused civil strife in Turkic, then this time's trade strategy can not be described as simply killing two birds with one stone. This strategy is simply terrible.

Li Ji was about to say another wave of rainbow farts from a military point of view, but Li Jing blocked him with a look.

People in the court have a lot of chatter, and it will be difficult if the strategy is carefully analyzed and spread to the ears of the Turkic people.

Li Youliang from before is a lesson from the past!
After Li Ji retreated, thinking about it carefully, his back was covered in cold sweat, and he quickly cast a grateful look at Li Jing again.

But at this moment Li Jing was looking at Li You.

After stopping Li Ji, Li Jing suddenly understood what Li You said just now.

Most of these things on the grassland were done by Pei Ju, and it was impossible for Pei Ju not to tell Li You.

Li You didn't know, it was obvious that he knew it too clearly and deliberately avoided it.

Just when Li Jing was shocked, the eunuch came to report.

"The Turkic envoy went to the pilgrimage to meet him!"
