In the Tang Dynasty, Hua Yue and Kong You are considered the two people Zhou Jun trusts most at the moment.
Needless to say, Hua Yue, as for Kong You, Zhou Jun was a little wary of him at first.
But since he spoke out about self-reliance, Zhou Jun gradually understood his thoughts.
His family was involved in the political struggle, leaving only one person alive. Kong You had no respect for Li Tang, only hatred. He was willing to tie his family and life to Zhou Jun. He only wanted revenge.
When Zhou Jun first came to the Tang Dynasty, he originally had some thoughts. He hoped to alert and remind the people of the world and continue the glory of Li Tang.
Unexpectedly, after some experience, Zhou Jun understood that the chaos in the Tang Dynasty did not originate from the vassal generals, but caused trouble to the court.
The powerful ministers, noble families, royal relatives, and even today's saints are probably the sinners of the Tang Dynasty's decline from prosperity to prosperity.
The annexation of land, the seizing of power by traitors, the balancing of power and tactics, the confrontation between the East and the West, and the ineffective planning of wars. No matter which one, they are long-standing problems of the Tang Dynasty that cannot be solved in the short term.
Even if Zhou Jun could really prevent the Anshi Rebellion, the ensuing separatist rule of vassal towns, heavy taxes that hurt the people, and clique fighting would drag the Tang Dynasty into an endless abyss, and eventually lead it to the darkest period in the history of Chinese civilization - the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.
Now that Zhou Jun thinks about it, what Kong You said may be right.
Faced with a dike that is full of holes and is about to collapse, the best way is not to stand in front of the dike and fill it with earth and rocks, but to stand by the river bank and dig a ditch to divert the accumulated floodwater to other directions.
However, what Kong You said about self-reliance was to establish a new dynasty to replace the Tang Dynasty. But Zhou Jun has been hesitating. When it comes to self-reliance, maybe there are other ways?
The next day, Zhou Jun returned to Chang'an and went to the capital to review matters. After a busy day, when he was having sex in the afternoon, he saw a group of unexpected guests outside Anshang's door.
There were six or seven people who came, all wearing long moon robes and dressed as Uighurs. The leader was a middle-aged man, accompanied by a young man.
When Zhou Jun saw him, he went up to him with a smile and said, "Mo Yanchui, how are you?"
The middle-aged man smiled and replied: "You don't need to call me Guanjue, just call me Tulishi."
Zhou Jun nodded in agreement.
The young man next to Tu Lishi learned the etiquette of the Tang people and said to Zhou Jun in less than standard Mandarin: "Young Master."
Zhou Jun vaguely remembered that this young man seemed to be Tulishi's eldest son, so he returned the greeting and said, "I remember you, Hedari."
Seeing that Zhou Jun said her name accurately, Heda looked happy and nodded vigorously.
Zhou Jun asked Turlish: "Why are you here?"
Tulishi said: "In accordance with the order of my father Khan, I presented a gift to the Tang Dynasty. In a few days, I will go back. Before returning, I told the Tang officials that if I wanted to visit Chang'an, I would be the first to go back.
Came to visit you."
Zhou Jun looked at Tulishi's side and found that he was accompanied by an interpreter from Honglu Temple.
Seeing Hedari turning his head to look at the market in Chang'an, Zhou Jun suggested: "It's a bit inappropriate to stand here and talk. Why don't we change places?"
Turish heard this and immediately agreed.
When it comes to entertainment venues in Chang'an, there is probably only one place that Zhou Jun is most familiar with.
Zhou Jun led Huihe and his entourage to perform the Chinese song in Pingkangfang.
Seeing the small bridge and flowing water in the song, the deep garden, and hearing the chanting of poems and the clanking of silk and bamboo, Tulishi and his party, who had never been here before, were full of curiosity.
Zhou Jun first went to the front yard of Gu Ran's residence and asked a maid to find the answer.
When the maid saw that Zhou Jun was wearing an official robe, she did not dare to neglect him and hurriedly went to the backyard to find Jie Qin.
Xie Qin came to the front yard and saw Zhou Jun and his party. She was stunned for a moment. After learning that the visitors were all distinguished guests, she asked her fake mother to clean up a clean single courtyard.
After entering the independent courtyard, Tu Lishi first walked around the courtyard, and then said to Zhou Jun with emotion: "The people of the Tang Dynasty are really unique in their residences and accessories."
Zhou Jun smiled and led everyone to sit down.
Not long after, another maid came in carrying candied fruits.
Zhou Jun was originally a little worried that the Huihe people would not understand etiquette and cause trouble.
But to his surprise, these Uighur envoys were all from noble backgrounds and behaved well. Some of them could even speak Tang Dynasty Mandarin.
When the musicians arrived, the musicians came in, the music started, and the opera was performed. The Uighur envoys watched and clapped their hands happily.
When Zhou Jun saw the translator of Honglu Temple watching the performance attentively, he moved to Tulishi's side and asked: "How good is the bone-strength Pei Luo Khan?"
Tu Lishi put down the wine glass, frowned and said, "Father is working hard and has an old ailment. His health is not very good."
Zhou Jun asked for details.
Turlish said: "The nine surnames of Oghuz defeated the right side of the Turks and killed the White-browed Khan. Next, there was a dispute about how to distribute the spoils and which tribe's leader took up the throne."
"Ge Luolu screamed the most fiercely and claimed to take away the pasture, so the Uighurs fought with him. In just seven days, Ge Luolu was defeated and fled west. Seeing this, the remaining tribes did not dare to resist the Uighurs, and his father also
Finally ascended to the throne."
"However, after this battle, both my father and I know that Ge Luolu is actually dissatisfied. Their escape is only temporary, and sooner or later they will start to attack again."
Zhou Jun nodded and asked: "The bone strength Pei Luo Khan is ill, what's going on?"
Turlish sighed: "Father Khan was injured by a hidden arrow from the Turks a few years ago. At that time, he was simply bandaged and didn't pay much attention to it."
"Afterwards, the wound worsened, and I asked the witch doctor of the tribe to help apply powder. Although my life was safe, the wound never healed completely."
"Since these days, black blood has often flowed out of the wound, and I have called many doctors to no avail."
After Zhou Jun heard this, he carefully recalled the history books.
Historically, after the powerful Pei Luo defeated Ge Luo Lu and became Huairen Khan, he died not long after. Now it seems that it was the result of the recurrence of old injuries.
Zhou Jun then asked Tu Lishi about the location, size, depth, symptoms, etc. of Guli Peiluo's wound. Based on his experience as a police officer, this was probably a lesion caused by local tissue damage and infection.
Moreover, this kind of lesion has penetrated deep into the tissue and begun to spread. Unless surgery is performed, it is difficult to eradicate it just by relying on ordinary drugs.
Regarding this matter, Zhou Jun had an idea.
He said to Tulish: "I know a medicine that may be able to cure the injury of Peluo Khan, but this medicine is very precious and may not be easy to find."
Tulishi's eyes lit up and he said with great joy: "If I can really cure Father Khan's injury, even if it costs me a mountain of gold, I will never frown."
Zhou Jun pondered for a moment and said to Tu Lishi: "You and I are close friends, so how can we talk about profit? When it comes to finding medicine, please relax and let me figure out a solution."
Tu Lishi nodded vigorously and said: "I know that Zhou Erlang never speaks big words, so I will be waiting for your good news in Chang'an City."
Zhou Jun asked Tulishi about the date when the Uighur envoys would return, and then left Pingkangfang.
