Ganlu Temple.

After Li Shimin was comforted by the eldest grandson queen, he no longer had any worries about Li Jian.

of course.

In his spare time, he is still used to playing mahjong with everyone to ease the tension in dealing with government affairs.

At this time, Li Shimin sat on the mahjong table with Cheng Yaojin, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others.

Not only them.

Qin Qiong and Li Jing were still standing beside the mahjong table.

The reason why most people gather here today is not only because they want to experience the mystery of mahjong, but more importantly, the court has already learned the news that Zha'erbuhua has returned to Turkic.

"The speed of Zha'er's not spending is fast enough. I thought it would be half a month before he returned to Turkic!" Li Shimin said with a chuckle while stroking the mahjong.

Changsun Wuji took his own cards and nodded with a smile on his face.

"I heard that when the Turkic prince went back, he took the wolf-shaped statue to show off, and even the Turkic Khan held a sacrificial ceremony for it!"

"You say... If these guys find out that the so-called baby is actually made of a pile of sand, what kind of expression will they have?"

As soon as his words fell, the people on the mahjong table burst out laughing
"I guess Turkic Khan will be so angry that he won't be able to sleep for a few days!" Cheng Yaojin laughed so hard that he almost fainted.

The few of them have already learned the secret of the so-called national treasure, so they naturally understand the mystery at this moment, and at the same time think that the Turkic people are simply stupid.

It's just a statue of a wolf, and a sacrificial ceremony was held for it.

These people are indeed unreasonably barbaric!

Seeing the indifferent look of the emperor and the crowd, Li Jing and Qin Qiong, who were watching, couldn't help frowning.

Especially Li Jing...

Ever since Li Shimin made the decision that he would not compromise with the Turks, he has not changed his previous attitude and often came to the palace to discuss state affairs with Li Shimin.

In Li Jing's eyes, Datang's interests are above all else. Regardless of the value of the statue of Nei Zun Lang Xing, even if it is a pile of waste, it is still under the banner of Datang's national treasure.

In fact, for those Turkic people, it doesn't matter whether they know the value of it or not.

The point is that everyone now believes that they have obtained the national treasure of the Tang Dynasty, which is a huge blow to the court's face.

To know.

Nowadays, even many people are still worried about it.

"Why is General Li in such a state?" Changsun Wuji quickly discovered Li Jing's abnormality.

They still cared a lot about Li Jing, after all it was not easy for him to change his previous attitude.

There are still many neutral factions like him in the imperial court. If they all make the right choice with Li Jing, the emperor's strength will increase infinitely in the future.

Hearing this, Li Shiming also noticed Li Jing's performance, and also showed concern.

"In Yichen's opinion, the value of that statue is not important, the key lies in how the Turkic people and the people of the world think about it!"

"Now everyone thinks that the emperor of the Tang Dynasty handed over the national treasure. This is a manifestation of fear of the Turks. No matter for the court or His Majesty, this will do more harm than good!" Li Jing expressed his thoughts truthfully.

As soon as these words were uttered, the faces of many people present changed. Even Changsun Wuji paused when he touched the cards. Of course he understood what Li Jing meant.

The whole thing has been considered the best result so far.

"General Li's words are wrong..." Li Shimin was not as angry as everyone imagined, but said with a smile on his face.

"Sooner or later there will be a war between us and the Turks. At that time, all rumors will be self-defeating. Actual actions will always be more effective than rumors!"

"General, don't worry too much, maybe it won't be long before everyone present will have to exercise their muscles and bones again!"

Li Shimin's confident words immediately broke the awkward atmosphere in front of him.

The facts seem to be true, anyway, they will fight the Turks sooner or later, and it doesn't really matter what happens now.

Li Jing won Li Shimin's heart again, and a smile appeared on his face.

As long as this can be guaranteed, the others really don't need to care too much!

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, when that time comes, we will never lose face for Datang!" Cheng Yaojin chuckled, quickly put this matter behind him, and started playing cards wholeheartedly.

The joyous atmosphere in the hall was restored again...

……

at the same time.

Wang's mansion.

In the room dedicated to Wang Shan.

This time, the people who came here are all the most important people of the major families, and they have already changed places. After all, there must be no leaks about what they are going to discuss next.

"Let everyone meet here today to ensure that the content of our conversation will not be revealed!" Wang Shan looked at everyone present very solemnly.

"One thing I want to make clear is that there are only so many people present today. If there is any news from the outside, no one present today will be able to escape the responsibility!"

"I hope everyone will take this matter to heart, and there must be no negligence!"

Everyone in the room nodded one after another. In fact, since entering here, they have already made relevant preparations in their hearts.

"This is a personal letter sent by the Turkic Khan. The third prince has not forgotten our agreement, and even used the wolf statue as an excuse to make everyone ready to attack Datang!"

"Presumably it won't be long before the emperor will have trouble sleeping and eating because of this. It is very likely that we can use this matter to help the crown prince come to power!"

"From now on, we will no longer have to be restrained by anyone, and we will restore our former glory!" Wang Shan carefully took out a letter from his arms, and said word by word while watching everyone.

When he received this letter, he was so excited that he didn't sit down for half an hour.

For the major families, this is tantamount to great news.

When the Turkic army came under pressure, the court would be in chaos, and the emperor would never be as calm as he is now.

Once the Turks gained an advantage on the battlefield, Li Jian's life would be lost, and they would no longer have to be controlled by others as before.

Upon receiving this news, many people in the room couldn't help but get excited.

They have put in so much effort, paid a considerable price, and waited for that day.

"What we have to do now is to prepare as much as possible. Once the Turkic army needs it, we will cooperate with the inside and outside to break through the defense of Datang!"

"Only when the emperor truly feels the pressure of death, will he be truly obedient. This is the only way to restore the glory of the past!"
