Datang: Only by resisting the decree can we become stronger

"Youle is very poor."

For this, Li Qiu didn't respond positively, but just said something that A Ke couldn't understand.

"Let the bullet fly for a while."

Eight or nine days ago, when Li Qiu came back from court, before the beaten eldest grandson rushed to the Furong Garden, Li Qiu quietly sent a secret letter to Youzhou.

Even Luo Kexin, Wu Jue, A Ke, Ma Zhou and everyone else did not know about this secret letter and its contents.

Come to think of it, he should be arriving in Youzhou soon, right?

……

The distance and time estimated in Li Qiu's mind were very accurate.

His letter arrived in Youzhou very punctually.

But it also made Zhang Yungu, Song You, Luo Liang, Fan Xing and other core members of Youzhou feel their scalps explode.

Just because the letter clearly stated: All the 40 refugees introduced last year will be moved to the Turkic Grassland in the northwest of Youzhou City.

And use the deep pits dug before the Turks as foundations to build houses and pastures.

At the same time, before the beginning of spring, the [-] Youzhou Xuanjia Army and the [-] Youzhou Army must be assembled.

Once the Turks attack the people of our Tang Dynasty, regardless of the scale or loss, they will immediately pour out all their troops to wash the grassland with blood.

Cut the weeds!

Chapter 500 The prince's well-intentioned efforts will last for thousands of years

The only people who saw Li Qiu's secret letter were Zhang Yungu, Song You, Luo Liang, Fan Xing, and Wang Xuance.

Now, Wang Xuance, who has experienced several tests and proved himself, has begun to enter the core management of Youzhou and other 21 states.

Xue Rengui, who is a little younger, and Gao Kan, who has just arrived in Youzhou, still have a long way to go compared to Wang Xuance.

After reading Li Qiu's secret letter, Song You couldn't help grinning and complaining.

"Master Zhang, Lord Fan, General Luo."

"Now the Turks have surrendered to me, the Tang Dynasty."

"Their Khan even paid homage to His Majesty Tang in person, and His Majesty also promised to marry Princess Youle to him."

"Seeing the good-neighborliness and friendship between the two sides, the conquests between Hu and Han stopped and peace was ushered in."

"But now the prince has asked us to do so."

"This will undoubtedly take the initiative to provoke troubles and once again trigger war conflicts between Hu and Han."

"This is equivalent to the prince's move, directly overthrowing everything that the Chang'an court has done."

"The lord can't bear such a big crime, our 21 states can't bear it, I'm afraid everyone can't afford it!"

"The harm and consequences of this approach are simply too great and too serious!"

At this time, Zhang Yungu also frowned and sighed lightly.

"The thoughts of many important officials in the court and His Majesty are still very clear."

"Even His Majesty's most beloved Princess Youle, who has already entered into a marriage contract with the eldest grandson's family, reluctantly promised to the Turkic Khan Yishiyinan."

"It is enough to see that in the hearts of His Majesty, the eldest grandson, and many courtiers, they all hope that this Turkic surrender can be completed by Hu Han and his relatives."

"For His Majesty who has just ascended the throne for a few years, this is undoubtedly a stroke that can leave a strong mark in the history books."

"This will also make His Majesty the emperor who once again subjugated the Huns and Turks after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and let all their people move to Shuofang and come under the jurisdiction of my Tang Dynasty."

"Back then, His Majesty's ascension to the Great Unification will definitely attract controversy from countless people in future generations."

"So in His Majesty's heart, he really needs this achievement to justify himself."

"Oh, the prince's move, it's not an exaggeration to say that everything we have is hanging by a thread!"

Listening to the analysis of the two of them, Luo Liang and Wang Xuance on the side saw it more painfully.

Originally, when they heard that their Youzhou army was about to engage in a decisive battle with the Turks, bloodbathed the entire grassland, exterminated the grasslands, and took revenge, the two of them were still faintly excited and excited.

But after hearing Song You and Zhang Yungu's analysis, their expressions gradually froze.

More serious and solemn.

At this time, Fan Xing, who had been lowering his head with a gloomy expression, finally spoke.

"My lords, you only know how to consider the feelings of the court and His Majesty, but you don't see clearly the real intention of the prince's order to us."

"I don't know much about Turks."

"In the hearts of each of their clansmen, in their bones, the heart of coveting and the fire of hatred for my Central Plains will never disappear."

"The reason why they will surrender to our Great Tang right now is nothing more than the fact that their main force has been hit hard by us."

"They are no longer strong enough to protect themselves."

"They have begun to fear my Great Tang's iron cavalry, especially the solid armor and sharp Mo Dao of our Youzhou army."

"They choose to surrender now, they just want to get a chance to breathe."

"Once decades or hundreds of years have passed, the Turkic ethnic groups have recuperated and become stronger again."

"Don't even think about it, they will definitely show their fangs that have been hidden for decades to the people of my Tang Dynasty and the Central Plains."

"At that time, who can guarantee that the next emperor of the Tang Dynasty will still be as wise and mighty as His Majesty."

"Who can guarantee that at that time my army and generals in the Tang Dynasty will still be able to use their troops like gods and bravely like Li Jing, Yuchi Jingde, Li Shiji, and our prince?"

"Even the armor and Mo Dao that we are proud of today, who knows that after a hundred years, they will still be able to withstand the enemy's blade firmly, or they will still be able to break through the enemy's armor sharply?"

"Everything like this, no one can predict."

"So the current court's approach, although it can be exchanged for decades of stability, is a piece of glory in the history books."

"But for my future generations in the Tang Dynasty and the Central Plains, this is a major hidden danger."

"The Yongjia Rebellion during the Jin Dynasty is a bloody example before us!"

"That's why the lord is really doing this with good intentions, and the merit will last forever!"

"My lord has lost all his wealth and life by doing this, just for the safety of future generations, my Tang Dynasty and the people of the Central Plains."

"This kind of great wisdom, great courage, and fearlessness, throughout the ages, how many people can match it?"

"I, Fan Xing, can serve the prince in this life, and I will have no regrets in several lifetimes!"

After listening to Fan Xing's words, Song You, Zhang Yungu and others all felt a sense of enlightenment.

At the same time, they also fell into extreme contradictions.

Although he knew that what Fan Xing said was right, what the prince did was to give up to me, for the future generations of Datang and the entire Huaxia.

However, they couldn't bear it very much, seeing the prince's anger at the entire imperial court because of this, and thus ended up in jail, with his family ruined and his family destroyed.

The prince treats himself with the kindness of saving his life and knowing him.

They still couldn't bear to do this, and personally pushed their prince into the abyss that would never be restored.

At this time, General Luo Liang sighed deeply, and then said: "I, Luo Liang, am a general."

"I only know how to obey the prince's military order!"

"My [-] Youzhou Xuanjia Army and [-] Youzhou Army will be assembled according to the prince's instructions."

"Other matters, let the adults decide."

After speaking, Luo Liang got up and left.

Even though he was reluctant in his heart, his eyes were extremely firm.

If that day came, someone really wanted to threaten the lives of the prince and the lady, then Luo Liang and all the soldiers in Youzhou would not be afraid of death.

No one will say yes!

Chapter 501 Xiaoyao Gong's Happy Body

After Luo Liang, Wang Xuance also bowed to Zhang Yungu, Song You, and Fan Xing.

"Xuan Ce dare not disobey Master's orders."

"If the master's choice is met with backlash from the imperial court and the whole world, Xuan Ce, as a disciple, will definitely protect the master and his wife."

"Even if you die, it's not a pity."

At this time, Fan Xing looked at Zhang Yungu and Song You with the same firm gaze.

"Fan Xing died outside Suizhou a few years ago."

"For such a feat of the prince, Fan Xing is willing to take the lead and obey his orders."

Seeing this, Zhang Yungu also shook his head and sighed helplessly.

"Like Lord Fan, my humble life, Zhang Yungu, was saved by the lord who committed the crime of exterminating the nine clans and robbing the court."

"I'll wait, even if you die, it's nothing."

"But how old is the prince?"

"This kind of genius who can govern the country with literature and martial arts is absolutely rare in the ages."

"If the prince is persecuted because of this matter, it will be a great loss for our entire world, and even for China through the ages!"

Song You also sighed lightly at this time.

"My lord Zhang, my lord Fan, the prince's actions are always unpredictable."

"Since the prince ordered us to do it, let's hurry up and prepare carefully."

"I believe that the prince will not be indiscriminate. When the prince arrives in person, we will know everything."

Ever since, after this meeting, the entire thirteen prefectures of Youzhou were in full swing to prepare.

Now, it really belongs to Li Qiu's fiefdom, and can be flexibly ordered by Li Qiu.

It's still the thirteen states before.

As for the eight prefectures including Beizhou and Qingzhou, since the imperial court assigned them to Li Qiu as supervisor, Li Qiu has never been here once.

Therefore, it is still a fief that nominally belongs to Li Qiu, and is under the supervision of Li Qiu.

But essentially, it's still the same as before.

The only improvement is that a very capable official, Cheng Mingzhen, the governor of Mingzhou, was successfully discovered.

For the time being, he is coordinating the affairs of the eight states. Even under such constraints, his work is still very good.

This point, Li Qiu heard Zhang Yungu report to him many times in letters.

I also paid attention to it, and I will meet him in person when I have a chance in the future.

For this kind of capable ministers, officials who love the people and are pragmatic, even Li Qiu's side is very lacking.

……

On the other side, in the palace.

When Princess Youle woke up the next day, she felt dizzy in her head.

My own memory only stays when I ate and drank heavily in Furong Garden yesterday.

Then I don't remember anything.

At this time, seeing her wake up, a palace maid immediately came to serve her.

At this time, You Le realized that he was drunk in the Furong Garden yesterday and was carried back.

For a moment, Youle blushed, feeling very embarrassed for her gaffe.

At the same time, she couldn't help feeling emotional in her heart.

No wonder so many people like to drink, and the king of Peiping really didn't lie to himself.

After drinking, you will temporarily forget all your troubles and unhappiness.

When Youle finished washing up and was about to eat, he suddenly saw the words on the table next to him.
