Chapter 21 How do you want to deal with the Turks?
Li Shimin stood with his hands behind his hands, his eyes were deep, and he asked Wei Zheng: "Xuancheng, how do you feel about this young man Su Chen?"
After thinking twice, Wei Zhengcai answered Li Shimin's question.
"Your Majesty, I can't see through this boy!"
"Although this boy is only in his youth, his thoughts are so thoughtful that even the old ministers are ashamed of themselves!"
"Especially his unbridled ideas, which are unprecedentedly strange!"
“I don’t know where this kind of talent comes from, and why have I never heard of it?!”
Wei Zheng shook his head as he spoke. What he experienced today had a great impact on him!
Whether it was Su Chen's attitude towards Li Shimin, his method of conquering the Turks, or his numerous family properties, Wei Zheng was inspired!
He almost thought that all this was as illusory as Zhuang Zhou's dream of a butterfly!
"Let's not worry about his background. I'm just asking you, do you think his method is feasible?!" His Majesty Li Er continued.
"Chen Jue's matter still needs to be discussed and cannot be decided easily." Wei Zheng said cautiously.
"Okay, let's discuss this matter tomorrow morning!"
His Majesty Li Er decided this matter with a wave of his hand!
"Your Majesty, with his abilities, it is such a pity that we cannot recruit him into the court!"
"However, the veteran is worried that his origin is unknown and he has evil intentions."
Wei Zheng was very confused and frowned.
His mind is not in a normal state now. What Su Chen said is really shocking!
How on earth did he know about the head of Dingxiang County?
Could it be that there is an undercover agent around him, or is it that Su Chen can foresee the future and can do divination and witchcraft?!
Wei Zheng was really puzzled, how did Su Chen do all this!
However, His Majesty Li Er did not pay much attention to this.
Because compared with where he came from, Su Chen's attitude towards him made him a little confused.
Even if Su Chen jumped out of a stone, but it is mainly a stone from the Tang Dynasty, then Su Chen is also a citizen of the Tang Dynasty.
Moreover, from Su Chen's many words, it is not difficult to see that he actually cares about Datang!
Forget it, no matter so much!
His Majesty Li Er shook his head and no longer dwelled on these issues.
Anyway, as long as Su Chen still does it for the good of the Tang Dynasty in his heart, there is no need to worry so much.
After all, Wei Zheng beside him had served Li Jiancheng and even attempted to murder him!
But isn’t it still being reused by me now?
After a long time, His Majesty Li Er let out a long sigh and said: "We'd better leave this matter to the future. It's not our concern at the moment!"
Then, he turned to Queen Changsun and said, "Mr. Guanyin, why did you give that flying jade to that boy Su Chen?"
"Didn't you say that you wanted to use the flying jade as a dowry for beauty?"
"Do you mean that?"
Naturally, His Majesty Li Er also understood the behavior of Empress Changsun.
He didn't feel sorry for Feitian Jade, but he just didn't like Su Chen's attitude towards him.
Su Chen didn't want to see him so much, why did Empress Changsun give the Feitian Jade to Su Chen?
If Su Chen really becomes his son-in-law, then he won't be so mad at him in the future?
"Your Majesty, I think Su Chen is quite good. We can find another way to recruit him."
Empress Changsun was also troubled by the fact that Su Chen rejected His Majesty Li Er twice, and she did not want to let such a good talent go.
So, after weighing the pros and cons, she came up with this idea.
"No, anyway, I feel very unhappy about that bastard boy now. If you want him to marry Changle, I won't agree to anything!" His Majesty Li Er said with some displeasure.
"Okay, everything is in accordance with His Majesty's wishes. Anyway, Changle is still young and is not in a hurry."
Queen Changsun chuckled lightly and did not object.
She knew that His Majesty Li Er was just feeling angry.
With how much he valued Su Chen, how could he let this opportunity go?
Once His Majesty Li Er is relieved, he may be willing to implement this method.
At the same time, Queen Changsun was also making plans in Xinzhong.
Su Chen and Princess Changle happened to be of the same age, and both were talented and good-looking, so we might as well try to get them to make friends.
It seems that I will take Changle here when I have time.
Empress Changsun has already taken notice.
Afterwards, the group returned to Chang'an City under the protection of Li Junxian.
The next day, the sun had just risen.
Taiji Palace, Ganlu Palace, Main Hall.
"Your Majesty, detailed news has been sent from the front."
"In this battle, our Tang Dynasty suffered more than 5,000 casualties and killed more than 30,000 Turks!"
"One captured eight thousand war horses, as well as countless gold, silver, and jade articles!"
…
At this time, Du Ruhui, Minister of War, was reporting to His Majesty Li Er the latest news coming from Northern Xinjiang.
His Majesty Li Er is wearing a black dragon robe and sitting high on the dragon chair.
If it had been in the past, Li Shimin would have been beaming and laughing after hearing so much good news.
Okay, after seeing the treasures in Su Chen's house yesterday, he felt that the things he got from defeating the East Turks this time were too shabby!
There is absolutely no comparison!
Therefore, Li Shimin was already a little impatient with the news. Seeing that Du Ruhui had finished speaking, Li Shimin said: "Okay! This is my first victory in the Tang Dynasty this year! It is also a good start.
For those who have meritorious service in this battle, the reward will be increased by another 30%!"
"yes!"
"This time, thanks to His Majesty's wise decision, we not only solved the food problem of the people in Guanzhong, but also annihilated the Eastern Turks in one fell swoop!"
"Today, our Tang Dynasty soldiers are brave, our kings are wise, and our talents are abundant!"
"With your Majesty's wisdom, you can definitely lead the Tang Dynasty to a prosperous age!"
…
For a time, the sounds of flattery continued to be heard in the Manna Hall, and there was no more sinner edict.
Under normal circumstances, His Majesty Li Er would naturally be willing to listen to them flattering him here.
However, what they call sage decision-making was not thought up by His Majesty Li Er himself, but by Su Chen!
The more Li Er listened to this, the more he disagreed with it. He felt a hint of ridicule and quickly raised his hand to interrupt the flattery of the ministers.
"I believe that with the joint efforts of me and all my dear friends, we will be able to lead the Tang Dynasty to a prosperous age!"
"Now, let's discuss how to deal with the East Turks first!"
"My dear friends, if you have any ideas, just tell me!"
As soon as His Majesty Li Er finished speaking, the hall instantly became lively.
All the ministers began to discuss the matter, and after a heated discussion, Fang Xuanling was the first to speak!
"Your Majesty, in my opinion, we should handle this matter properly to show the world!"
"Oh? But it doesn't matter!"
"Your Majesty, this Northern Expedition is our greatest achievement since the founding of the Tang Dynasty!"
