No matter how confused the imperial court was, a victory was a victory, and false reporting of military achievements was more unlikely to happen at such a time.

The imperial court had no choice but to quickly select people to go there, either to verify the authenticity or to send people to take over Pibocheng.

Because the incident happened suddenly, it was not easy to choose a candidate for a while, so Di Renjie sent his second son Di Guangyuan over there.

For a moment, the government and the public looked sideways, and even Wu Chengsi couldn't help asking: "If I remember correctly, Di Xiang's youngest son is also working under the Duke of Yue, right?"

Didn't Di Renjie claim not to form cliques for personal gain?What are you doing so close to Duke Yue?

Moreover, he still sent his son there, which made people doubt his real purpose.

There is no need to doubt, Di Renjie said very frankly: "The Duke of Yue is good at teaching people. After Sanlang came to him, he became more obedient and learned a lot."

Well, he just sent his son there for re-education.

The eldest son doesn't need it. The eldest son is older than Luo Shixing, and he is also in a relatively important position. Although the second son also has an official position, it is not that important. If you miss such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, it will be gone.

Even Di Renjie couldn't always let Luo Shixing take care of his children for free.

After Wu Chengsi heard this, he couldn't help but start to think deeply. His son is also a bit stubborn at the moment, but he doesn't know how to teach him well. As his son, he is naturally surrounded by countless flatterers, which leads to The longer the son grows, the more crooked he is, or...send him to Luo Shixing too?

Luo Shixing has already accepted one, so he probably doesn't mind getting another one, right?

But in the end Wu Chengsi's idea was ruthlessly shot down by Wu Zhao: "Da Lang is about to get married, what are you thinking?"

Wu Chengsi's eldest son, Wu Yanji, has already decided to marry Li Dan's eldest daughter, Princess Shouchang, as his wife. The wedding is scheduled for the end of the year. Although it seems that there is still a long time to go, but at their status, the wedding is all sorts of cumbersome , especially one is the daughter of the emperor's heir and the other is the eldest son of the prince.

From all aspects, this wedding has been valued by everyone. Now that Wu Yanji is sent to Tubo, what if something happens?

After hearing this, Wu Chengsi thought for a while: "That Erlang..."

Wu Zhao was also a little helpless: "You can't take care of your father, can Luo Wujiu take care of it for you? He's not even a few years older than your son."

Wu Chengsi laughed and said: "That's not the same, they admire Wu Jiu very much."

Luo Shixing didn't have much contact with Wu Chengsi's family, but every time he gave a gift, he would do what he liked. The gifts to Wu Chengsi's children were very expensive and beautiful. Of course, Wu Chengsi's children liked him.

Wu Zhao shook his head helplessly: "Let's wait until Luo Wujiu's class teacher returns to court."

Wu Chengsi subconsciously asked: "Will they come to Luoyang?"

Wu Zhao looked at his nephew as if looking at a fool.

After Wu Chengsi finished asking, he couldn't help but want to slap himself. Of course they will come back, even if they don't report their duties, they still have to come back to accept the reward.

He suddenly had a very concerned question, looked up at Wu Zhao and asked, "Aunt...the title of Luo Wujiu..."

Wu Zhao was silent for a while before saying, "Look again."

Luo Shixing's current situation is a bit embarrassing, but if his title doesn't change, he can only be promoted to a civil servant, and if he is promoted again... Only the sixth department can hold him.

It was the first time Wu Zhao had a headache because of promoting someone.

According to the past, she was promoted casually, because although those official positions seem to be very important, in fact, even if they are not done well, it will not affect anything.

But if Luo Shixing was thrown into an idle position, not to mention Wu Zhao was not reconciled, Di Renjie would probably be the first to object.

If there are six...six ministers in their twenties, what will happen in the next few decades?Even if he was allowed to take turns in all six parts, he might only be in his 20s by then, and with Luo Shixing's hard work in the process, he might make great contributions, and it would be unreasonable not to let him be the prime minister.

A prime minister in his thirties... There are still a few decades left, how much power can a powerful minister manage his own power in a few decades?I'm afraid that the emperor may not be able to suppress him by then.

Wu Zhao didn't doubt Luo Shixing's loyalty, but at that time, Luo Shixing might not be able to control him. He didn't want to form a party, and the people below would work hard to lean towards him, and even formed a party member in order to be able to surrender to his sect.

Not to mention that there is Cheng Jingwei beside him, the combination of these two people is enough to defeat most courtiers.

Wu Zhao decided to wait a little longer to see if these two people could still surprise her.

It's just that after Luo Shixing and Cheng Jingwei took down Pibo City, there was basically no new news. Even Di Guangyuan just said that the two were rectifying Pibo City, as if they stopped there and didn't plan to go any further.

Wu Zhao's headache got worse, and she was worried that these two people's military achievements would continue to accumulate, but she also felt that it would be a pity that they did not improve to the next level.

These are two completely different mental states, probably because Wu Zhao's mind has been wandering back and forth between the emperor and the elders.

Luo Shixing and Cheng Jingwei didn't care, and they didn't really want to take credit.

It is said that after they brought down Pibo City, both Wang Xiaojie and Hei Chi Changzhi became under a lot of pressure in an instant. The evidence is that these two people were advancing slowly and slowly before, but recently they have become much more aggressive than before.

Luo Shixing reckoned that these two people were also worried about being robbed of their merits, and these two were trying their best to be knighted.

Luo Shixing already has a title, and is very satisfied with the current title, and it is impossible to go up any further, so why bother arguing with them?

So he wrote a letter to the two very considerately, and asked them if they wanted supplies.

After Wang Xiaojie and Hei Chi Changzhi received the letter, they were happy on the one hand and a little sad on the other hand. They fought for a long time. Although they occupied a larger territory, they really didn't have a sense of presence as they had laid down Pibocheng.

Tibet is a country with a vast land and few people. What's the use of occupying more places?Of course, no one can talk about those places casually. The real thing depends on the cities that are heavily guarded by Tubo.

The result is that they lead more people, hold more supplies, and haven't achieved any results yet, and now they still have to ask others for supplies.

Both Wang Xiaojie and Hei Chi Changzhi were a little embarrassed, but they were not relenting. They wrote to Luo Shixing one after another and gave them an approximate amount.

Luo Shixing made some calculations and left some for his own people, and the rest, especially the gunpowder, were given to Wang Xiaojie and Hei Chi Chang Zhi.

And because no one at Hei Chi Chang Zhi would know how to use these things, Luo Shixing even sent a special artillery team to help Hei Chi Chang Zhi.

Black-toothed Changzhi is very grateful to Luo Shixing. He has been envious of Wang Xiaojie's new weapon for a long time, but it is a pity that he has not been able to assign it to himself. Now he can also experience the power of this thing!

After Luo Shixing divided the things, he looked at Di Guangyuan and said, "Since Di Xiang sent you here, he must be at ease, and we can go back with confidence."

Di Guangyuan's heart tightened: "Don't, don't, my father sent me here to learn from you."

Luo Shixing resisted the urge to roll his eyes: "As a prime minister, isn't Di Xiang better than me in precepts and deeds? Why did you let me learn from you?"

Are you kidding, Di Guangyuan is older than him, and he has been an official longer than him, so he is ashamed to teach this guy.

Di Guangyuan smiled and said, "Daddy said that he wants me to go outside. What he taught me is not suitable for the place."

The prime minister coordinates Yin and Yang and is in charge of the overall situation. It is true that having a prime minister's father can give Di Guangyuan a higher vision, but if he really wants to govern a place, Luo Shixing's experience is better.

Luo Shixing was a little helpless, but if Di Guangyuan was really inexperienced, he was really worried about handing over Pibocheng to him.

Among other things, what if Tubo feels that a weak chicken has come here, and then rushes over to snatch Pibo City back?

At that time, he would die of anger, and if Di Guangyuan was here, he would have no way to explain to Di Renjie.

When he goes back, he has to hit Di Renjie hard!

Luo Shixing put all his things to Di Guangyuan and said: "This is the current situation in Pibo City. There is a large population here, and the tax revenue is basically the same as that of Tang Dynasty, but there are more poor people. The most important thing now is to subdue the hearts of the people. You Look at it first, and then think about what to do."

To be honest, there are not many of these documents. After all, it hasn’t been long for Tubo to learn Sinology, and it hasn’t been long for them to create their own characters. This has led to their documents being mixed with two languages. Where there are places that can be expressed in Tubo characters, Tubo characters are used. Where it is not possible, Chinese characters are used, but generally speaking, Chinese characters are the majority.

This feeling is the same as that of later generations looking at footbasin characters. When there are many Chinese characters, you can even guess and understand the general meaning.

After reading it hastily, Di Guangyuan said, "It's been 50 years since they received all the taxes? Then...just exempt all the taxes."

This is usually done after occupying a new land. Luo Shixing nodded. He was about to ask, but then he heard Di Guangyuan say: "Well, according to the usual practice, the tax will be increased next."

"What the hell?" Luo Shixing almost spit out after hearing this.

Di Guangyuan said in a daze, "No... isn't it all like this?"

He did his homework before coming here, and he did this to keep the local people honest. Generally, after occupying a new land, he would not rush to use a soft policy, and more would be to suppress first, and then talk about other things.

Luo Shixing said with a headache: "This is Tubo, they may turn against the water at any time, even if you want to suppress it, you have to hit a sweet date with a stick, you can't just force it."

Di Guangyuan's eyes lit up immediately: "Then... what should I do?"

He came here just to learn, and naturally he didn't care about Luo Shixing pointing out his mistakes.

Just as Luo Shixing was about to say something, Wang Antong ran in and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something is wrong. Du Song Mang Buji is crazy! He sent people to dig up the Zang River, and the river rushed into the Luo Suo River!"

Luo Shixing:! ! !Gan, the barracks of Hei Chi Chang Zhi and Wang Xiaojie are over there!
