Let's say that Zhang Yang simply set up a barbecue stall at Chengtianmen, and some military generals came up to the Chinese officials to buy meat skewers.

The business was neither good nor deserted, but there were a few brave people who came forward to buy a bunch.

The aroma of barbecue wafted in front of the palace gate. Zhang Yang and King Wei were having a leisurely barbecue, which became a very unique scene in the imperial city.

Li Tai shook his fan for a while to fan himself, and then fanned the stove to control the heat of the barbecue.

After a while, Xu Jingzong also came. He ordered a bunch and squatted aside to eat.

Zhang Yang turned back and looked at the palace gate. Li Shimin looked so indifferent, "Old Xu, your Majesty encourages his ministers to come in and give advice. He doesn't care if I barbecue in front of the palace gate. You should give advice."

Xu Jingzong grimaced, "Zhang Shangshu can risk his life without fear of life or death. There are old and young subordinates, so I don't dare."

Zhang Yang said melancholy: "Didn't you say last time that your relatives died in the war?"

After coughing, Xu Jingzong replied: "My wife's natal family also needs to be taken care of."

Li Tai didn't eat as many meat skewers as he sold, so he burped and kept talking.

Xu Jingzong took another bunch and said, "I haven't been able to sleep well lately."

Zhang Yang glanced at his complexion and said, "You look weak at first sight. Drinking some wolfberry in tea and water on weekdays might help."

The weather has just entered summer and it is not very hot yet, and the coolness of the wind can also refresh people's spirits.

Xu Jingzong said with emotion: "Actually, Xiaguan's heart is always worried about the cause of the Ministry of Rites. I don't know if this Nishu has come out of seclusion. Gaochang has arranged a hundred soldiers and horses to escort him. I don't know if he will arrive safely."

Western Turks.”

Zhang Yang picked up the skewers and put them down again, "Do you have to talk about business at this time?"

Xu Jingzong whispered, "The official just said casually. I heard that this Si Yehu has lost all the hearts of the Western Turks. He is a khan who usurped the throne by killing. He suppressed it by force. His identity is higher than that of Zhenzhu Khan."

The offspring are still weaker."

Seeing that the meat skewers were almost eaten by the fat guy Li Tai.

The remaining four or five skewers were just left on the iron shelf, and the fire in the stove was almost extinguished.

Originally, Ni She and Kucha King Bu Shibi planned to work together to ambush Yehu Khan. Who would have thought that Gao Chang would move so fast.

The original relationship situation was disturbed by Gao Chang.

It’s not something I’d like to bear, and the Ministry of Rites didn’t do it on purpose.

This was all last year, who would have thought there would be such a change.

"When the official explained the situation to Ni She, he also told him how to stir people's hearts."

Xu Jingzong talked endlessly about official matters, and his words continued.

"As long as this bastard can win the hearts of the people and is assisted by Gaochang's soldiers and horses, it shouldn't be difficult to kill Si Yehu. From then on, his family will become the puppet khan of our Tang Dynasty in the Western Turks."

"Wait a minute." Zhang Yang interrupted him, "When did I say that I wanted Ni Shou to be our puppet khan?"

"Isn't it?" Xu Jingzong was stunned, "Isn't this what Zhang Shangshu meant?"

"I never said I would choose him to be our puppet."

Xu Jingzong looked solemn.

"Ah?" Li Tai realized it later and made a confused voice.

Sometimes I feel that I am quite innocent. The emperor owes me the land and refuses to give it to me, and I have a brother-in-law who is obviously a psychopath and has a bit of a bad temper.

The generals guarding the palace gate have changed two shifts. Li Daoyan can actually go home. The general who was on duty has also arrived, and the person who came is none other than Su Dingfang.

I heard that Zhang Yang, Xu Jingzong, King Wei, two adults and one child, gathered together as if they were plotting something.

Fearing that Zhang Shangshu would burn down the palace gate, Li Daoyan decided to listen more out of his sense of responsibility, and this time he heard about the affairs of the Western Regions.

Since his father's death, Li Daoyan has become the head of the family.

Most of the people in the clan are from the Li family in Longxi, and they are also relatives of His Majesty. Being in the family of generals in the clan, it is natural that they should take it as their own responsibility to expand the territory and win military glory. The matter of shining the lintel of the clan falls on my eldest son.

When he heard about the Western Regions, he stopped and listened.

Su Dingfang also came over curiously and wanted to ask, but listening to the conversation of the three people in front of him, the war in the Western Regions was often discussed among the generals in the court.

Ever since Zhang Yang became the Minister of Rites, he has made bold statements about presiding over diplomatic affairs. This man is still young and he does have some skills in diplomatic affairs, and he is not just a civil servant.

Zhang Yang's approach of not suffering losses but being reasonable and face-saving won the hearts of the generals in the army. In the court, whether it was the battle-hardened Yuchi Gong, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin or Li Jing, they all had a heroic spirit in them.

That is a hero who stands upright and does not compromise.

In comparison with Wenchen, Zhang Yang's tough-minded approach made the generals quite happy with him.

The conversation continues.

Zhang Yang gave an example to Xu Jingzong, "A person dares to enter Chang'an alone, and he also dares to return to Western Turks alone. When King Qiuci was escorted to Chang'an City, he was accompanied by others all the way. Such a person who values ​​love and righteousness

, I think it will also be very popular in the Western Regions."

Xu Jingzong nodded, "Of course."

Zhang Yang folded his hands and said: "A descendant of Zhenzhu Khan who is supported by the people of the Western Regions can still be sworn in with Si Yehu. Such people are often easy to succeed in rebellion, and once people like him ascend to power, they want to

It will be difficult to control him anymore."

Li Tai analyzed: "I think this Si Yehu is easier to control, but this person is vicious and vicious."

Xu Jingzong was silent for a long time.

There are some branches lying on the side. These are used for barbecue skewers. These are rare peach branches, which are most suitable for barbecue.

Zhang Yang picked up two sticks and said, "Now there are two khans in the Western Turks, both of them are vying for the position of the great khan. There is a family feud between them. If they don't agree, they will definitely get into a bloody collision. Even if they don't

Even if their heads are broken and bleeding, we will make them gnash their teeth and fight with all their might to kill each other."

Li Tai nodded clearly, "As long as one of them wins, they will lose control. As long as their war is not over, they will always ask for help from Datang."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Who can bear the humiliation and bear the burden for many years and still persist to this day? This kind of government and scheming cannot be underestimated. Once this person has power in the Western Turks, he will be a big deal to the Tang Dynasty."

A good thing."

Xu Jingzong suddenly nodded, "It turns out that was the intention. I understand."

Li Tai asked further: "If the Western Turks were in such a situation, Tibet would be indifferent. Ludongzan and Songtsen Gampo would probably not just sit idly by."

Zhang Yang snorted coldly: "I, the hero of the Tang Dynasty, are like a cloud of heroes, are you afraid of him?"

After finishing his words, Zhang Yang stood up straight again and turned around to see Li Daoyan and Su Dingfang.

Looking at the two people, Zhang Yang said in surprise: "What are you two?"

Su Dingfang had an armored stomach, and the look in his eyes was very sharp.

Such people can make people feel a chill in the ranks just by standing there.

In comparison, Li Daoyan is much more easy-going.

The scene was a bit awkward. Li Daoyan raised the horizontal knife in his hand and said, "A certain family doesn't like this kind of calculation very much."

Su Dingfang said in a deep voice: "Fortunately, Zhang Shangshu is working for the Tang Dynasty, otherwise the general will definitely let you die on the streets."

After a few words, the three people laid out a conspiracy to plunge the Western Turks into war.

What's frightening is that this plan was planned from the very beginning when the Kucha royal family was escorted.

Su Dingfang and Li Daoyan must not make enemies with such people. This is what Su Dingfang and Li Daoyan know in their hearts. Today they feel particularly heavy. Each of the advisers in His Majesty's hands is more terrifying than the last.

Seeing that it was getting close to dusk, Zhang Yang asked Li Tai to move away the stove and barbecue grill, and watched Chengtianmen being quiet for a long time.

Finally, he made a shocking move.

Many officials who were about to go home saw Zhang Yang take off his coat, tie it to a wooden stick, wet it and wrote these six words on the ground in front of Chengtian Gate: Your Majesty will not pay back the land he owes!

After finishing writing, Zhang Yang took the stick and brushed off his clothes.

To say that Zhang Yang was still worried about how to collect the debt from Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji and Li Shimin also chatted for a long time in the Xuanzheng Hall.

"I didn't expect that Zhang Yang's storybook could cause such a big trouble to the aristocratic family."

Changsun Wuji replied: "Nowadays, among the scholars, there is a lot of talk about family status and etiquette, and there are more and more conflicts between the children of poor families and the children of the rich. The stories in the three volumes of Red Mansions, West Chamber, and Butterfly Lovers are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and have been spread all over the world.

Shaozhou Prefecture.”

Li Shimin smiled and said, "I really didn't expect these three stories to spread so far. Is this all intentional?"

"Scholars and scholars passed it down by word of mouth, and many scholars copied it, so it spread. Although the aristocratic family said these three stories were nonsense and harmful to etiquette, such stories are what the world likes.

.”

Changsun Wuji whispered, "Sometimes people hear too many stories about princes and generals. It would be good to have a book to entertain them after dinner."

It seems to have opened up a new direction for Li Shimin. It turns out that writing can also be used to fight against aristocratic families.

The eunuch hurriedly came over and said, "Your Majesty, Zhang Shangshu has left."

Li Shimin nodded slightly and finally felt relieved, "Just leave."

The eunuch added: "But before leaving, Zhang Shangshu wet his clothes with water and wrote a few words in front of the palace gate."

Li Shimin put one hand on his temple and leaned his wrist against the table, "What did he write?"
