Li Tai asked Master Yuan and Peacock to connect and discuss the details of this matter.
After Li Tai returned to his study, he began to collect foreign wool through wool textiles, and then integrated it into the meaning and function. He was about to hand it over to Bai He to copy and send it to the court.
After thinking for a while, he added a few more words, and then handed them to Bai He, "Find out this manuscript and send it to the saint."
"No!" Bai He did not hesitate when he heard Li Tai's words, and immediately picked up and sent it to Chang'an.
In fact, Li Shimin was quite busy during this period of time.
For example, let Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng modify the old rituals and formulate 138 new rituals, including 61 "Auspicious rituals", 4 "Gui Qi", 20 "Military rituals), 20 "Military rituals),
Forty-two chapters of Jiali, six chapters of "Evil Ceremony", and five chapters of "National Comfort".
At the same time, the selection of palace maids has also started this year. Originally, Wu Meiniang, who was thirteen years old, Xu Hui, who was ten years old, etc., would almost enter the palace at this time.
But unfortunately, Li Tai proposed to increase the childbearing age of a woman to 16 years old, or at least to 15 years old.
The palace set an example, so when choosing palace maids, they directly stuck most of the unqualified palace maids of age. It can be said that Li Tai saved countless loli invisibly, which is of great merit.
As for ordinary jobs, although there are some things that can be obtained or taken, they have become a routine.
In terms of management, a relatively stable administrative system has been formed. It is almost like Li Shimin is more diligent, Fang Xuanling is easier, Li Shimin is more relaxed, and Fang Xuanling needs to be more responsible for more tasks.
It has to be said that Fang Xuanling's existence restored the power of the Tang Dynasty very quickly. At least now, the Tang Dynasty has restored the materials consumed in Tuyuhun to a maximum of 70% and 80% of 70% and 80% of 70% and 80% of 70% and 80% of 70% and 80% of 70% and 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80% of 80%
But Li Shimin began to take the map around the Tang Dynasty and wonder which one to hit.
At this time, Li Tai's expedited documents were delivered from Luoyang to Chang'an and sent to Li Shimin.
Because Li Tai would write to the palace on the 15th day of every month, Li Shimin also knew Li Tai's delivery habits.
But this letter did not come at normal time, which made Li Shimin feel unexpected.
So when Li Shimin received the letter, his face was somewhat solemn.
After all, if your son cannot solve the problem, it is probably not a small problem.
Li Taixing Gaoling, built Tianjin, developed Hehuang, and laid out the West Sea. Now he created a game of Luoshui. People who like to play chess in the world will participate.
If Li Tai encounters any trouble, he will come to ask for help in a hurry, and it is not a trivial matter, which makes Li Shimin somewhat worried.
But soon, Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief after reading the content of the letter. At least it was not that Li Tai encountered any problem, but that Li Tai launched the seed plan and came to report to him.
"I ordered someone to announce Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and Wei Zheng!" Li Shimin thought for a while and then began to call people!
Soon, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and Wei Zheng all came to Li Shimin and saluted after seeing Li Shimin.
Li Shimin didn't say much, so he handed Li Tai's letter to the three of them, saying, "You all come and have a look!"
Everyone was not polite, and one or two took the letters from Li Shimin and passed them to each other and started reading them.
After watching for a while, Wei Zheng took the lead and spoke:
"The King of Wei intends to establish a distribution center for wool textiles in the West Sea to absorb livestock materials from the nomadic people in the West Sea.
Since the King of Wei is sure, let the King of Wei give it a try first.
After all, there are soldiers and capable officials in the West Sea. Even if something really happens, it is not a big deal as long as you don’t cause turmoil in the frontier.”
In Wei Zheng's opinion, there seems to be nothing wrong with Li Tai, who directly purchases foreign materials through Tang Dynasty coins. If it succeeds, the court will have an extra rope to curb the border areas.
It takes a long time to prepare the plan. Now, this plan is relatively beneficial to both the Tang Dynasty and the alien race, so why not do it?
"The King of Wei really plans to educate the aliens in the West Sea!" Fang Xuanling looked at Li Tai's special wool textile technology, which made Fang Xuanling frown.
Because none of the three of them were technically born, they strategically agreed to Li Tai's establishment of towns in the Xihai area and strengthen the connection with foreigners on the border.
But why the wool textile industry is the core? These three of them can’t explain why, so they can only use the knowledge they have to look at Li Tai’s layout.
At least in their opinion, Li Tai's plan was conducive to the transaction between the Tang Dynasty and the surrounding alien races, thereby stabilizing the relationship between the border alien races and consolidating the control of the Tang Dynasty over the surrounding alien races.
Fang Xuanling looked at the letter sent by Li Tai and thought for a while, "Should you let Nuohebo go to the land of Hexi?"
"Huh?" Li Shimin looked at Fang Xuanling with some confusion when he heard Fang Xuanling's words.
Fang Xuanling said to Li Shimin at this time, "Our control over the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is probably to part of the land east of the West Sea, and these places cannot be considered completely controlled.
So someone needs to go to the area north of the West Sea to gather the alien races together, and we will further implement administrative orders."
"If this is the case, will Tuyuhun rekindle?" Li Shimin frowned.
To be honest, Tuyuhun is not weak, and even before Li Jing led his troops to attack, Tuyuhun's combat power should be among the top ten in the world.
The overall strength is probably filmed after the Tang Empire, the Arab Empire, the Sassanid Empire, and the Byzantine Empire.
When it comes to combat effectiveness, when it comes to the peak, when it is facing the Eastern Turks, the climbing Tubo, or even the Goguryeo, who is determined to defend, they may not die so thoroughly.
However, who made him meet the Tang Dynasty, whose national strength has increased, and then hit Li Jing's hand.
After all, even though there was a defeat in the Hehuang Valley, the potential for subsequent wars in Tubo still supported it to fight another battle with Li Jing.
Although Li Jing completely destroyed the main military group, the remaining foundation was enough to maintain the dignity of a kingdom.
It was not until the turmoil inside Tuyuhun that the surrounding alien races saw Tuyuhun's weakness, and then the Tubo wiped out the remaining forces of Tuyuhun, which made Tuyuhun's last little foundation be swept away.
"As Tubo wiped out some of the forces in Tuyuhun, it made Tubo begin to border our Tang Dynasty."
Du Ruhui said calmly, "The Hu people have always feared power but have no virtue. We have defeated Tuyuhun upright. The Tuyuhun people are convinced by our occupation of Tuyuhun's land.
But Tubo is different.
They took advantage of the loss of Tuyuhun's backbone forces and ate a lot of Tuyuhun's land. It would be strange if Tuyuhun could easily endure it.
Therefore, at least before the two-talent war department appeared in Tuyuhun, they would definitely be respectful to our Tang Dynasty.
Moreover, in order to have a single-time war department, he was afraid that Tuyuhun would be willing to have friction with Tubo.
This is conducive to our Tang Dynasty's control over the Xihai region."
Hearing Du Ruhui's analysis, Li Shimin also touched his beard and began to think.
At this time, Wei Zheng added, "Whether we wanted to implement the grass seed plan in the Tang Dynasty or the King of Wei wants to establish the so-called wool textile distribution center, we must let a person among the alien race take the lead.
By then, the Tuyuhun people or other people from all races change their customs. Even if 20 or 30 years later, Nuohun Bo is really amazing and talented and beautiful to rebuild Tuyuhun, but he still needs to see if his tribe members are still.
His tribe members!
Just in case, I beg the saint to give him a wedding bowl so that he can rebuild Tuyuhun with the might of the Tang Dynasty."
"Give marriage?!" Li Shimin couldn't help thinking when he heard Wei Zheng's words. If he gave marriage, it would be serious.
Wei Zheng looked at Li Shimin fearlessly and said solemnly to Li Shimin.
"The saint never remembered Princess Yicheng of the former Sui Dynasty. Although his crime was unwilling tolerate, his feelings were respectable. My Tang Dynasty also needed a woman like Princess Yicheng."
When Li Shimin heard Wei Zheng's words, he couldn't help but think.
To be honest, Li Shimin also knew what Wei Zheng meant, that is, he wanted to invest in a situation where Tuyuhun was almost completely destroyed.
This investment is not to develop Tuyuhun, but to leave a means of checks and balances within Tuyuhun.
Just like Princess Yicheng of the Sui Dynasty, with the strength of the Eastern Turks, Princess Yicheng even independently controlled an army with the talent of the War Department, and even had the capital to disturb the borders of the Tang Dynasty.
The original purpose of the Sui Dynasty was to split the Turks, but he did not expect that Princess Yicheng would do such a good job.
She became the only member of the royal family who insisted on opposing the Tang Dynasty and had the ability to oppose the Tang Dynasty after the fall of the Great Sui Dynasty.
"And it's right!" Li Shimin thought, "Select a woman of the right age from the royal family and give it to her as a daughter, marry her in Nuohu Bo. After Nuohu Bo got married, he sent Nuohu Bo back to the West Sea to rebuild the country of Tuyuhun!
”
"Sage and wise!" Seeing Li Shimin agreeing to this matter, the three of them thought Li Shimin's choice was very good.
Meanwhile, Li Shimin continued, “This matter has been dealt with, but next… where is Sassanid?
Qingque actually asked us not to refuse Sassan's request for help for the time being, but to send an envoy to Sassan's inspection and make a map?"
"Sassanthesanthes was before Rest, an empire created by the Persians. Although he experienced several turmoils, he finally stood tall in the world. There was much communication between Rest and the Han Dynasty, Sassanthesanthes and the Northern Wei Dynasty!"
Wei Zhengbo's ability to know and know the strong knowledge was reflected, and he said with thought:
"Basically, with the smooth flow of the Silk Road, the communication between us and Sassanida became more and more numerous.
To a certain extent, we are friends on the Silk Road, but even the good ministers between Sassanthesanthesanthes and our Tang Dynasty definitely disagree to send troops to rescue Sassanthesanthes.
After all, this distance is too far away, how to replenish it!”
To be honest, Wei Zheng didn't expect that Li Tai would actually help Sasanthesan. However, as a counselor of the Tang Dynasty, Wei Zheng immediately blocked this matter. After all, Wei Zheng could see that Li Tai seemed to feel about the Sasanthesanthes.
interest.
It’s like someone’s sheep dares to eat grass today and will dare to eat people tomorrow.
In Wei Zheng's opinion, Li Tai dared to propose surveying maps today, so maybe one day he would propose to travel thousands of miles to rescue him.
Although Wei Zheng also knew that Li Tai would not make any suggestions for being crazy, no matter what, he had to eliminate the possibility of such a thing.
After all, Wei Zheng could also notice that Li Tai's proportion in Li Shimin's mind was getting higher and higher.
Under such circumstances, if one day Li Tai would make Li Shimin happy, Li Shimin would agree impulsively!
However, even though Wei Zheng said so at this moment, Du Ruhui said,
"If it is really related to the Silk Road, then the soldiers may not be sent out first, but the guide and messengers need to be arranged in advance."
"Hmm?!" When Wei Zheng heard this, he couldn't help looking at Du Ruhui and widened his eyes.
But Du Ruhui politely said, "I respected the orders of the saints and implemented the canal transportation plan designed by the King of Wei step by step.
From Youzhou to Yuhang, after the entire Grand Canal was completely unblocked, I could clearly see that the recovery speed of the national strength of our Tang Dynasty was restored to the greatest extent with the smooth flow of the canal.
So in my opinion, sending an envoy to follow the Sasanian envoy to Sasanian, which will allow me to clearly understand how many enemies and friends I have in the Tang Dynasty outside of Yumen Pass.
Secondly, rebuild the Silk Road and reproduce the story of Bowang Houhou, which will help restore the national strength of our Tang Dynasty.
The most important thing is that the Han Dynasty is in front and the Tang Dynasty is in the back. If we cannot restore the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions and re-establish the Western Regions, how can our Tang Dynasty be in the same position as the Han Dynasty!”
Hearing Du Ruhui's words, Wei Zheng opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he chose to close his mouth.
Although the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions can only be regarded as the sphere of influence of the Han Dynasty, but not the territory of the Tang Dynasty.
But for any Han emperor who has achieved success, there are still some expectations for re-establishing the Silk Road and re-incorporating the thirty-six Western countries separated from the Han sphere of influence into their control.
After all, the most important reason why Goguryeo was so obsessed with Emperor Yang of Sui was that it has been the territory of the Han Dynasty since ancient times.
If you want to inherit the Han Dynasty's legal system, then inheriting the Han Dynasty's territory is the most basic one.
After the Tang Dynasty took over the baton from the Great Sui Dynasty, what could prove that the Tang Dynasty was greater and more legal than the Great Sui Dynasty? That is, what the Great Sui Dynasty did, what the Great Sui Dynasty did, and what the Great Sui Dynasty did not do, the Great Tang Dynasty also did.
Did it.
Although the matter between the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions seems insignificant now.
But after the Tang Dynasty solved Tuyuhun and restored the Tang Dynasty's sphere of influence to the four counties of Hexi, how to deal with the matter of the 36 countries in the Western Regions will inevitably be put forward and can be temporarily put on hold, but sooner or later this matter will be necessary
Solved.
Thinking of this, Fang Xuanling was determined at this time,
"The power of the Tang Dynasty has never been involved in the Western Regions, let alone the situation west of the Western Regions.
It is not impossible to use the Sassanian envoy to let us understand the situation in the Western Regions.
As for whether to help Sassanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesians, it would not be too late to make a decision after we came back from the mission.”
