Chapter 581: The most prestigious conquest of Tang
Su Lu was woken up by the baby's laughter.
When he opened his eyes, he saw a pair of chubby hands patting his face. Amidst the giggles, his daughter was hugged away by Li Qing again.
"Are all the courtiers here?"
Su Lu stood up and asked Li Qing who was teasing his daughter.
Li Qing nodded, "You were assassinated last night. Dozens of the Forbidden Guards were killed and injured. The Dingxiang Guards Commander angrily scolded your pro-military commander for his incompetence. The patrol battalion and the three Forbidden Guards almost turned the capital upside down. Just for this reason."
Searching for spies from the Tang Dynasty."
"Su Ge came to me just now and told me that the people in the capital were voluntarily reporting on the Tang people hiding in the capital. The Dali Temple and the prisons of the Ministry of Punishment can no longer let go of the details of the Tang people."
Looking at Su Lu, Li Qing said softly:
"Promise me that if you are not in good health, you will never walk on the street without a guard in the future. You are now a thorn in the side of the people of Tang, Chu, and Qi. They all want to kill you. There will definitely be endless assassinations of you in the future.
of."
Su Lu stood up and started to put on clothes, "Okay, I promise you, I will always take my guards with me when I travel from now on."
"Have you thought about what to name your daughter?"
Li Qing was slightly shocked:
"Can I name my daughter?"
Su Lu tied up his jade belt and let the female officer who came in from outside tie up her crown. Then she said with a smile:
"You are the mother, of course you can decide your daughter's name."
Li Qing smiled like a flower:
"Well, I have to think carefully about what to name my daughter."
Su Lu put on his clothes, teased his daughter, said a few words, got up and left the carriage.
Inside Luan Jia, Li Qing's face immediately turned cold and solemn, and he asked Chang Ning who came in to serve.
"Lu Zhan is still kneeling outside?"
Chang Ning nodded: "After Commander Lu was scolded by Commander Ping Qi last night, he arranged for guards to keep watch at night and knelt outside."
Li Qing sighed, handed his daughter to Chang Ning, stood up and started to get dressed.
"In this land war, it is important to clear out the remaining enemies in the palace, but he always neglects his most important duty. The prince's safety is tied to him, but that doesn't make me feel too at ease."
Chang Ning teased the little princess, rolled his eyes, and said casually:
"Your Majesty, let me tell you that Commander Lu did not make a big mistake. It's just that we ignored the prince's safety too much. In the past, we always thought that the prince was in the army and his safety was very important."
"In fact, if the countries are determined to assassinate the prince and send out martial arts masters to assassinate him, there is a great chance of killing the prince. We can no longer take it lightly."
Li Qing got dressed, sat down and started to eat, and frowned when he heard this.
"Gao Zhan is too old to follow the prince back and forth. We have some masters in the Han clan, but it is difficult to find this great master."
Changning was about to speak but stopped after hearing this. Eunuch Gao Zhan and Xie Ruyu had died together. The prince was worried that His Majesty would not be able to bear the sorrow, so he did not dare to tell His Majesty.
When Li Qingzheng hesitated, he saw Chang Ning's troubled face, and his heart moved for no reason.
"Changning, did something happen to Gao Zhan?"
"thump"
Changning knelt down directly in front of Li Qing and spoke in a low voice.
"I dare not say it."
Li Qing put down the bowls and chopsticks, walked around the table, took the little princess, and said softly:
"Chang Ning, Your Majesty asked me to name my daughter. What name do you think would be good?"
"Get up. Kneel down every now and then, so that the prince will see you and think I'm touching you."
Chang Ning stood up anxiously and said in a hoarse voice:
"Your Majesty, just give me whatever name you like."
"Then let's name her Su Yi and give her the name Taiping."
Li Qing looked at his daughter's little face, stood up slowly, and walked out.
Changning hurriedly chased Li Qing and asked:
"Your Majesty, we haven't finished our breakfast yet. Where are you going?"
"I'm going to see Xiao Luzi. He died protecting the prince. I'm going to see him and his family."
…
In the Qinzheng Hall, the hall was filled with red, purple and crimson people.
There was a faint smell of blood in the hall, and there were still blood stains on the dragon carvings. Imperial guards and imperial guards with swords on their waists were standing up and down the steps.
Su Luduan sat on the throne and looked at the ministers at the foot of the steps.
"I intend to raise troops to attack the Tang Dynasty. If you have any ideas, please tell me."
General Dong Ling, who still had gauze on his forehead, stood up:
"Your Majesty, the Tang Dynasty has strong soldiers and horses. It is better to attack Qi than to attack Tang."
After finishing speaking, Dong Ling's eyes scanned among the ministers imperceptibly, and then he lowered his head.
Zhou Yuan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Revenue, left the office and said loudly:
"I believe that the Tang Dynasty should be conquered. The Tang Dynasty invaded Jiangzhou many times, and last night made trouble in the capital of Han Dynasty. There is a proverb among the people, if you don't compete with steamed buns to argue with the tone, even if you starve to death, I, Zhou Yuan, advocate the invasion of the Tang Dynasty."
The news of Su Lu's assassination has not yet spread in Beijing. The ministers only know that the Tang assassins are causing trouble in the palace. Dong Ling wants to take advantage of this opportunity to expose those ministers who oppose Su Lu, so that he can deal with some more ministers.
In response to Zhou Yuan's impassioned speech, the ministers were afraid that they would immediately change their tune and attack the Tang Dynasty.
Sure enough, after Zhou Yuan, the money bag, agreed, the guide for the government and the public immediately became how to recruit soldiers and allocate food and grass for the Tang Dynasty.
Zhou Ping left work and said:
"Your Majesty, Rouran, as Thule has been surrendered for a long time, more and more soldiers have been recruited from the two regions. There have been frequent conflicts between the armies in the north, and the military department is tired of coping. It is better to mobilize the armies of the two tribes to go south and attack the Tang Dynasty."
Su Lu nodded, "Rouran and Tule are good at fighting, so they can move their troops south."
"How are the students from the Jiangwu Hall who were sent to the armies now? Are there any up-and-coming ones?"
Among the sergeants recruited from Rouran, Tule, and Qin, they all sent out martial arts training students. Su Lu’s original tone was to focus on promotion, and the promotion and honorary titles were all lenient, in order to allow these boys to be able to compete in various fields.
The army took root and brought what was learned in the martial arts hall to the armies.
Assimilate and change the minds of these sergeants.
Zhou Ping looked at the imperial letter in his hand and said, "Back to your lord, there are cadets from all armies who are emerging. Sha Linggang and Xie Ningyun, the captains of Jiamengguan School, Feng Lun and Su Dingfang, the captains of Hanshui City School, and Li Chongshan, the captain of Rouran School."
There were so many, far beyond my expectations.
"Okay, this time we attack the Tang Dynasty, with Cao Hua as the commander-in-chief and Li Kun and Zhao Wu as his deputies."
"Shalingang and Xie Ningyun were each promoted to two levels of honorary rank. They detached an army from Jiameng Pass and rushed to Wuyuan. Feng Lun and Su Dingfang each led a Rouran cavalry to assist Jiangzhou. The rest of the trainees had completed their probation period.
Those who are willing to stay in the original team will be promoted to two levels of honors and one level of official rank."
"Those who are willing to return to Beijing will be treated with leniency in accordance with the original policy."
"Everyone, go down and get ready."
Su Lu waved his hand and retreated.
The ministers retreated one after another, and the hall became empty again.
Cao Hua limped into the hall with his body wrapped in gauze and his arms hanging on his chest.
"I have met the prince."
Cao Hua gritted his teeth and saluted Su Lu. Dong Ling and Su Yun were trapped in the palace, but Cao Hua was trapped in the mansion. A military formation composed of more than a dozen master-level martial arts masters trapped Cao Hua until yesterday.
That night, the Imperial Guards raided the entire city and rescued her.
Su Lu ordered the young eunuch to show Cao Hua his seat and asked:
"Whether the injury is serious or not, if not, I will send Su Ping to lead the army to conquer the Tang Dynasty."
