Take the mall to Datang

It sounded absurd, but Li Shimin became worried, and a civil servant wanted to persuade him, but Li Shimin stopped him, and he just hurriedly sent six ministers to come to discuss the matter.

Li Shimin didn't give many choices, and there were undoubtedly two choices for those who yelled, hit him or make him yell, so after the first round of bidding ended, there were four votes to choose not to hit.

The atmosphere in Li Shimin's heart, but temporarily suppressed the anger in his heart, but in the final analysis, such things as fighting should be left to professionals. Therefore, the role of the Datang Strategic Defense Department was manifested for the first time.

The meaning of not fighting is to defend first, so Niu Jinda and Liu Hongji served as the principal and deputy commanders to ensure the security of the border of the Tang Dynasty. Hou Junji fought for it, but was rejected.

Xue Yantuo's soldiers and horses wandered around the northern border of the Tang Dynasty and left without going deep. According to Niu Jinda and Liu Hongji's analysis, this may be a signal, so Li Shimin focused on the Turkic people living in the Tang Dynasty.

Qianniuwei in Cangzhou got the news and started a secret investigation. According to the survey, many Turkic people living in Datang had abnormal changes in their daily schedule. Xue Yantuo is still unknown, so he can only continue to monitor secretly.

9 Chapter Ninety

Li Shimin hesitated on how to deal with the Turks. After the Battle of Yinshan, his strategy towards the Turks was somewhat lax.

Xue Yantuo was very shrewd, able to bend and stretch, and knew what Li Shimin needed at that time.

So they cooperated, traded, and stabilized the situation in the north, but they never expected that it was precisely because of indulgence that Xue Yantuo's ambitions swelled.

In recent years, Xue Yantuo's most powerful power has changed from cooperation to threat, and his strength is very strong. He randomly mobilized 20 soldiers and horses to go around the border of Datang.

Once the news spread, it became an invisible provocation.

The fact now is that, due to the influence of the northern terrain, it is not easy for the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty to encircle and suppress Xue Yantuo, and it is difficult for the nomads to integrate.

Li Shimin was wary of the Turks' covetousness. He had concerns about the voting decision, because he didn't think about the result. It seems a bit sloppy to use a fair vote to decide things. Of course, this is only in his eyes.

Yuan Shan was leisurely at home, and when he was going to Donghai Prefecture, he regarded it as a trip to the sea, so when everyone was slowly packing up their belongings, he was lying on the rocking chair in the study and happily basking in the sunlight coming in from the window.

The Duke's Mansion is now full of glass doors and windows, and the light is very transparent. The light is strongest at noon, so there is another textile in the furniture decoration-curtains.

This kind of curtain is very common in Tang Dynasty, but it is used in different places.

Caiyi knocked on the door when she came in. Usually maids walk lightly when they walk, but Caiyi is different. Yuan Shan specifically explained that you must knock and make some noise when you enter the door, or you will be caught if you don’t care. scared.

"Master, Miss Miaolian wants to invite Master to participate in the wine promotion in the dance hall." Caiyi walked in and said softly.

"Recently, the activities in the song and dance hall are very impressive. Half of our own industry must support it. Let's ask Yanbei to prepare a car." Yuan Shan said.

Caiyi immediately went out to do errands, listening to songs became more and more activities, especially after changing the speakers, now brothel singers are a bit like later generations of singers, and this routine of making money and supporting roles has become popular.

The song and dance hall is the leader, especially from the beginning of the reality anchor show, and now there is a tendency to evolve into a stage play, but the evolution has also become an opera, and now it has reached the stage of antiphonal songs.

In the evening, there are many people in the dance hall, and there will be discounts for each event, but on the contrary, every time the settlement is made, they will earn more than usual. Chen Changshun never tires of it. Happy.

After Yuan Shan arrived, he went directly to the box.

Miaolian followed in.

"What are you calling me for?" Yuan Shan asked softly.

Miao Lian sat next to Yuan Shan very accustomed to the distance between the two. There were many people with mixed eyes, and Yuan Shan didn't push her away in the standard action of talking about secrets.

"Two days ago, some merchants from the north came to Pingkangfang. The sisters got some news that Xue Yantuo was in close contact with tribes such as the, Pugu, and Huihe. Recently, did you hear that Xue Yantuo brought troops to invade the border of the Tang Dynasty? I don't know if this news is useful to the Duke, so I want to tell you as soon as possible." Miao Lian whispered softly.

Yuan Shan knew that Xue Yantuo was quite a powerful person. Due to the northern environment, the Tang Dynasty had nothing to do with them. In recent years, they have developed well. What can they do if they collude with a group of tribes? It became a joke.

"Well, I see." Yuan Shan said indifferently.

Miaolian's Hongxiu Club can hear the news, I'm afraid Datang's spies will not be inferior to these women, but the Hongxiu Club still has some advantages, and he doesn't plan to rely on them to do anything, but he still needs to grasp more information .

"Master Guo, why don't I ask someone to send it to you next time I have news, so as to save such trouble every time." Miao Lian complained.

"No, inquiring about news is the most taboo to be found out. It's not easy for you women in this place of fireworks. You can't take risks for this. Besides, I just want to know more news, and I don't have any intentions, so just listen. Now, don't intentionally spy on it, you should do your job well." Yuan Shan said.

"Master Guo is kind to us, we will appreciate it." Miaolian said.

"By the way, this time I'm going to Donghai Prefecture, do you want to live there, and then I can let you become ordinary people." Yuan Shan said.

"Thank you, Lord Guo, for your curiosity. It would be good if you could let the sisters stay with Lord Guo. If not, you can continue with your current life. If you have adapted, it will not be easy if you want to change." Miao Lian said.

Yuan Shan didn't need to think about it, it wouldn't have any effect to let them stay by his side, but it's impossible, there are too many women in the family, it's impossible to create a harem like the emperor's.

"Actually, what I want to see is that you can live your life according to your own wishes, unrestricted and free. If you go to Donghai Prefecture, you can achieve these things. I'm telling the truth." Yuan Shan said.

"Asylum, life, I believe the Duke can give us all, but what we want is not only freedom, but also our sexual happiness. This is too far away for us. Please think about it, Mr. Guo. It’s fine even if I’m a slave girl.” Miao Lian leaned closer and whispered softly.

"Let's talk about this matter later, you have to rely on yourself to win your own sex, or else you will organize a sorority meeting like the Ministry of Economics and Development. At that time, you will invite talents from the Tang Dynasty, successful businessmen, and wait for unmarried men to come over and let you solve the problem of being single. " Yuan Shan said.

"Hmph, what the Duke said is easy. There are eight hundred men who hang out in Pingkang Square every day. There are no such people, but men are unreliable." Miao Lian said.

"It's not aimed at the Duke." Miaolian added.

Yuan Shan's face was black, not aimed at it, but it included whether he was right or not. He didn't continue this topic with Miaolian. There was never any reason to talk to a woman. He knew it very well, so it was useless to talk more.

"Since that's the case, it's not easy for me to ask. It depends on your choice, but I promised that as long as you are under my command, I will guarantee your safety in the dance hall." Yuan Shan said.

"Thank you, Grandpa, for taking care of me. The little girl is very grateful." Miao Lian whispered softly.

"Okay, isn't today's drink promotion? How can the dance hall do without you as an oiran?" Yuan Shan said.

Chapter 991 Stepping up to higher education

In the song and dance hall, there are crowds of people dancing, drinking, and a group of dancers dressed up in beautiful clothes, with gorgeous makeup, slim figures and high heels, showing the graceful grace of women.

"Next, we invite Ms. Miaolian, the oiran of our dance hall, to sing for everyone..." Immediately on the stage, the master of ceremonies said loudly into the microphone.

There was a lot of noise in the ballroom.

"Miaolian's singing voice is my favorite..."

"Miaolian, I like you, send me ten flower baskets quickly."

"There are only ten, send me a hundred flower baskets, so that the local beetle can learn a lot."

"The boy is so courageous, bullying Lao Cheng's son, who dare to report his name?"

Then there was a flurry of chaos.

Miao Lian hadn't even started to sing, and today's income has directly increased to Baiguan. The speed of making money is really unreasonable.

Seeing such crazy people in the box on the second floor, Yuan Shan really didn't know what to say, but if you have money, you should spend it like this. It seems that you want to contribute some manuscript fees to novel writers, and come up with an author support plan.

Chen Changshun walked into the box and said with a smile: "Mr. Lan, I really have a good mood today. I came to the dance hall. I heard that you are going to Donghai Prefecture. Can you open the branch of the dance hall?"

"It doesn't matter, don't you think you will lose money if you drive there?" Yuan Shan said.

"With Duke Lan in charge, I'm naturally not afraid." Chen Changshun said in response.
