Chapter four hundred and seventeenth: the hearts of the people are available

Chapter 417: The hearts of the Muslims are available

"Young Master of the Chen family, tell us, what other characters were published in the newspaper today? Wei Qing and Huo Qubing were mentioned last time. Hehe, that is a character. As a person, you should be Wei Huo. Your Majesty is right. Today you are

Let's talk about other heroes." Under the big willow tree in the west of the city, a group of people were sitting on the ground, and sitting in the middle was a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old. He looked very upright and had a refined face. He was obviously also

People who have entered the school. Among the crowd, an ugly-looking middle-aged man pointed at the young man and said with a smile. Between the opening and closing of his mouth, a pair of yellow teeth could be seen faintly, and there was some eye mucus on his eyes.

It was stained on it, and it was obvious that he had just stood up. He looked extremely disgusting. Around him, people vaguely stepped aside for a distance. Obviously, this guy was not a good person in the community. No one wanted to talk to him. If he were not in the community,

There is a scholar reading a newspaper here, but I'm afraid no one would want to stay with him.

It turns out that these people came here for the heroes published in the newspapers. This is probably the most beautiful scenery in Chang'an City recently. Many related professions have even been born, such as storytellers, etc., as

With the publication of newspapers, the heroes in them have become known to the general public. Over time, even those who have not read the book can tell the deeds of one or two heroes, either to encourage their children or as a source of conversation for each other.

.This is quite comfortable.

"Wang Da, who told you not to go to school? You only know how to sneak around and knock on widows' doors all day long. Now that you're done, you still want a young man. Are you ashamed?" A middle-aged woman next to him laughed and scolded

road.

"Go, I was born in a bad age. When Yang Guang was alive, how could he have bothered to study. If he had been in power at that time, I might have been ranked second in the exam or something like that. How could I ask for others."

With a frustrated look on his face, Wang Da waved his hand towards the middle-aged woman and said dissatisfiedly.

"That is, at that time, everyone was careful to be sent to Liaodong, so how could they still think about studying and literacy?" Another middle-aged man with a scar on his face shook his head and sighed deeply: "It's okay to go to war.

Why don't you think the general who led the army back then was someone like Wei Huo? If he were someone like that, maybe those of us who followed behind would have been able to make a small fortune even if we couldn't get a wife.

You can't do it like this." He said and patted his lame right leg. Everyone nearby also shook their heads after hearing this. Apparently this man had also been to Liaodong, but he was lucky enough to come back.

That's all, but it's a pity that he paid a huge price. The scar on his face and his disabled right leg are proof.

"Haha, the character mentioned in the newspaper today is Gongsun Zan." At this time, the young man sitting in the middle began to speak. He was holding a newspaper in his hand, and he was shaking his head like one of those old scholars who teach. This is different from

His age was very inconsistent, but the people next to him just fell in love with him. As soon as they heard him speak, the people next to him stopped talking and listened carefully to what the other person said.

"Gongsun Zan, known as General White Horse, courtesy name Bogui, was from Lingzhi in western Liaoning of the Han Dynasty. He..." The young man read slowly according to what was said in the newspaper.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Young Master, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing are both important figures. They have made a lot of contributions to our Han family and defeated the Huns. Such great achievements can be said to be a hero, but what ability does this Gongsun Zan have?

Oh, you can actually appear in this newspaper and be regarded as a hero, or the hero of my Han family? What is the reason for this, Xiaolangjun, please tell us." Wang Da asked with a frown.

"Yes, yes, that's right. What kind of ability does Gongsun Zan have? In the end, he was destroyed by Yuan Shao and even killed Shangguan. Such a character can also be selected as a hero of the Han family. Did you read it wrong?" Scarface

He also spoke loudly.

"Although Gongsun Zan killed Shangguan and was defeated, he fought bravely and defeated the grassland peoples in the north at that time. Well, the grassland peoples at that time were just like the Turks in the past. They were very cruel and often penetrated deep into the territory of the Han Dynasty.

Gongsun Zan often fought against those who plundered the people of the Han family. He fought bravely and was powerful in the frontier, so he can also be said to be a hero of the Han family." The young man looked at the comments at the bottom of the newspaper again, shook his head and started talking.

..

"Oh, so that's it. Gongsun Zan is also a hero." Scarface stood up, shook his head and said, "It's a pity, I was born at the wrong time. If I had encountered the current campaign in Liaodong and had a great general under my command, Piao

With people like the Cavalry General, King Liang, and Champion Marquis, I am at least a general now. It’s a pity that I was born at the wrong time.”

"Scarface, if we were to go to Liaodong today to destroy Goguryeo, would you still go?" Wang Da said with a look of disdain on his face: "I'm afraid you would have been so frightened that you would have hid."

"Humph, if my legs were intact, I would have signed up to join the army. The emperor even destroyed Jieli. The Turks had hundreds of thousands of cavalry. In the end, they were defeated by your majesty and the general. Goguryeo

It’s not something that can be easily captured. How can a wise man like Yang Guang be compared to him?" Scarface turned around and said coldly: "If possible, I really want to kill a few Goguryeo people.

To avenge my two brothers, it is a pity that their bones are still abandoned in Liaodong, and their heads may have been placed in the capital by those hateful Goguryeo people."

"Hey, Scarface, I'm going to send out troops today, why would I want you? Your Majesty's standing army is the best among the best. If we fight, hey, I'm afraid we won't be able to do anything good." Wang Da shook his head and sighed: "The standing army is good for fighting.

If you win the battle, you will be promoted to a high official. Hehe, otherwise, I will go to Liaodong and kill a few Goguryeo people. Maybe I can get an official position, and even be published in this newspaper and become famous all over the world."

"Humph, even if I can't go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, I can still help His Majesty transport food and grass." Scarface snorted coldly: "When Your Majesty goes to Liaodong, I will go to transport food and grass. I don't need a penny from the official family. I just need to pay for it."

Just order something to eat. If you can't kill the enemy yourself, you can also support the soldiers in killing the enemy. Hum, I have to go to Liaodong to see those hateful Goguryeo dogs even if I die."

As if he heard the anger and hatred in Scarface's words, everyone around him stopped talking and everyone was silent. After thinking about it, Wang Da stood up and spit on the ground.

He spat and said viciously: "Brother Zhang is absolutely right. I think back then, Goguryeo dogs killed countless of our brothers. Although it has a lot to do with Yang Guang's unrighteousness, it's a pity that Goguryeo dogs are not good birds either. Brother Zhang

, if the emperor really wants to conquer Liaodong in the future, I will work with you to deliver food to your majesty for free. This can also help my Han people breathe a sigh of relief. Hey, your majesty will not want us."

"Haha, good brother." Scarface's eyes lit up, he stepped forward and patted the opponent on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "I thought you could only bully the old, weak and widowed, but now it seems that you are also a

Someone with a handle. Okay, if His Majesty goes to Liaodong in the future and needs someone to transport food and grass, I will take one with you."

"Okay, thank you so much, Brother Zhang." Wang Da grinned, holding back the pain on his shoulder, twitching the corners of his mouth, showing a wry smile, and said: "If you serve His Majesty, you won't be able to do it without any strength. However,

Brother Zhang, aren't you a little too strong? It hurts so much when you slap me on the shoulder." Hearing this, everyone around them burst into laughter, even the man who was sitting under the willow tree and reading the newspaper.

A burst of laughter broke out.

"Haha, it doesn't matter. Practice hard with me in the future, maybe it will be useful in the future." Scarface smiled and patted Wang Da's shoulder a few more times, making the other person grimace.

"Scarface, you definitely did it on purpose, you definitely did it on purpose." Wang Da shouted loudly. But the louder he shouted, the louder the people around him laughed, but there was a trace of goodwill in these laughter.

.

"Let's go, let's go." What everyone didn't know was that on one side of the road, a luxurious carriage was parked there. There was a purple figure faintly visible in the car, but there were several guards standing there around it.

It was straight, with a bulging waist, and a weapon hidden in it. It was obvious that the identity of the person sitting inside was not simple.

The carriage moved slowly, and the people in the carriage sighed deeply, which could be heard faintly. Someone inside sighed: "Your Majesty, you win again this time."

"Sir, you are here."

"Lord Chief Assistant."

With a burst of friendly shouts, the carriage slowly stopped under the Zhuque Gate, and Cen Wenwen was seen tremblingly getting out of the carriage. The man who was just fifty years old already had wrinkles on his face and faint temples.

There is a trace of gray. After more than ten years of hard work, although he is a very popular minister, he is busy with state affairs. As he grows older, Cen Wenwen gradually feels a little powerless. If Cen Wenwen is not needed in the court, Lu Zhaoci will

We can't live without Cen Wenwen. I'm afraid Cen Wenwen has left Xuande Hall long ago and become a hermit by himself.

"Okay, okay." Cen Wenwen nodded repeatedly. As Cen Wenwen got older, his humble demeanor never changed. He still treated lower-level officials as before, and there was no change at all due to the other party's position.

.So his reputation among officials is quite good. Like Li Jing, one is among civil servants and the other among military generals.

"Master Chief Assistant." Changsun Wuji and others also came up and said with a smile: "Master Chief Assistant is late today." Fang Xuanling and others chuckled upon hearing this.

"I'm getting old. My legs and feet can't keep up anymore." Cen Wenwen shook his head and said, "Because I've kept all my colleagues waiting for a long time, let's go to Xuande Hall first. Maybe not long after, His Majesty will recruit me to discuss matters.

, prepare first to avoid making mistakes." Everyone nodded after hearing this.

"The Prince has gone to Luoyang, has there been any news recently?" After walking a few steps, Cen Wenwen suddenly stopped and asked Changsun Wuji and others beside him. When Changsun Wuji and others saw this, they had no choice but to

Stopped.

"Not yet. I heard that the palace in Luoyang is very well built and can keep up with it. Mainly because the wealthy businessmen in Luoyang heard that His Majesty was planning to move the capital to Luoyang. Everyone was very happy. Some people donated money and materials. The people

As soon as they heard that they would still get paid, they were very excited and started working very quickly. In about half a year, the palace in Luoyang will be built. The Daming Palace is also almost completed. After all, it is just a small-scale renovation.

, only the Daming Palace was really built. The speed is still very fast." Changsun Wuji seemed to have thought of something again, and said quickly: "Although His Royal Highness has no documents to go to Xuande Hall, His Majesty and Changsun Empress

There are letters exchanged every day.”

"Well, that's the best." Cen Wenwen nodded and said, "If it's possible, I'll ask your Majesty to let the Crown Prince return to Chang'an. He has already stayed in Luoyang long enough."

"Go back to Chang'an?" Changsun Wuji and others' expressions changed after hearing this. Emperor Zhenguan asked the prince to go to Luoyang to build a new city. Although he didn't say it clearly, everyone knew it. It was to create power for the prince, so that he would avoid it in the future.

If you rush to the position, your foundation will be unstable. At this time, letting Lu Chenglie come back is not a bit too hasty.

"Yes, His Highness the Crown Prince should become more familiar with government affairs. The most important thing is to become familiar with the art of war. Haven't you seen that the general has been in Chang'an City during this time?" Cen Wenwen shook his head and said: "General even the general

They are all in Chang'an, so what can His Royal Highness learn in Luoyang? It is better to be close by and learn the military strategies of the great generals."

"Come back, come back." Changsun Wuji looked stunned for a moment, but he still agreed. Although he was very doubtful, why Cen Wenwen was so anxious to let Lu Chenglie come back? Could something happen in the palace? However, Cen Wenwen was so anxious to let Lu Chenglie come back.

Wen Wen even married his most beloved daughter to Lu Chenglie. Who would he consider if he didn’t consider Lu Chenglie at this time? Although Changsun Wuji was arrogant, he had to admit that in terms of vision, Cen Wenwen was several times better than him.

Grade. Although he did not understand the meaning of Cen Wenwen, he still decided to co-sign with Cen Wenwen.

"Okay, in that case, just write the memorial to Xuanling. You will be the author and we will sign it." Cen Wenwen glanced at everyone, and his eyes finally fell on Fang Xuanling.

"Okay." Fang Xuanling agreed without hesitation, but still said: "Master Cen will dictate, and the subordinate will write." As he said this, he glanced at Cen Wenwen. Seeing this, Cen Wenwen also nodded.

People don't mention it when they enter the side hall.

"Brother Cen, is something going to happen in the court?" Fang Xuanling asked quietly, looking at no one around him. But his hand stayed there, and in just a moment, he waved away a memorial.

There is no hint that he is doing two things at once.

"Hey, I'll let you see it." Cen Wenwen nodded and said: "Your Majesty is probably going to conquer Goguryeo. Therefore, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must come back quickly to familiarize himself with government affairs. Fortunately, during His Majesty's personal expedition, he can get started quickly.

Handle government affairs more quickly."

"So fast?" Fang Xuanling asked in surprise: "Is it necessary for the imperial commander to conquer in person? Just send any general out. General? Xu Shiji? King Liang? Qin Yong? Even Xue Rengui, Su Dingfang are all

Yes, but why does Your Majesty still have to conquer it personally?"

"Haha. Xuanling, in history, Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty went to the Western Regions. Even Yang Guang, although he was a faint king, in the early days, his imperial commander personally went to the Western Regions and fought against the Tuyuhun people.

There are very few emperors like this in history. Look at our emperor. He unified the world at a young age. This can be compared with Qin Shihuang. His conquest of the grasslands can be compared with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. He wiped out more than a hundred countries in the Western Regions.

He has far surpassed Yang Guang, but there is still one place that no emperor in the past has conquered, and that is Liaodong. In that land, we Han people suffered more than a million casualties. Your Majesty is the wisest emperor in history.

, how could you give up this opportunity? Hey, Xuanling, His Majesty wants to be the most powerful emperor in history, so it is inevitable for him to go on a personal expedition. Otherwise, wouldn't he be inferior to Yang Guang? It has become inevitable to go to Liaodong.

As for the generals you mentioned, they probably all follow the army. Maybe you and I will also follow the army."

"When will His Majesty prepare to go on an expedition?" Fang Xuanling asked again: "Will the people below and the soldiers in the army agree? If they don't agree, even if they defeat Goguryeo this time, there will be countless casualties."

"Xuanling, you and I still underestimate your Majesty too much." Cen Wenwen shook his head and smiled bitterly: "If you have nothing to do, you can go for a walk in the village. I don't know about other places, but I know about Chang'an City. Then

People in the street are eager to send troops to Goguryeo immediately to let them take revenge. As for those army soldiers, even if I have not seen it with my own eyes, but thinking about it, they are eager to send troops to Goguryeo immediately so that they can earn some military exploits and become like Wei Huo.

People, even people like Gongsun Zan, are okay. Your Majesty, these things have been settled long ago. Do you think His Majesty is just doing it casually by publishing newspapers? Do you think it is fun to publish the deeds of famous generals from past dynasties in newspapers?

Other people's talk? No, His Majesty has already planned it. In the past few days, a lot of documents from Silla have come, not only from Xuandeok Palace, but also from the General Staff. The one they are talking about is Goguryeo.

After joining forces with Baekje, Silla's defeat is only a matter of time. The Tang Dynasty's march into Goguryeo has become a fact. It's just that His Majesty hasn't made up his mind yet. If we don't prepare now, why don't we wait until His Majesty issues an imperial decree?

? In that case, we, the Tang Dynasty, will lose the best opportunity to participate in the war. Well, either we don’t fight, or if we want to fight, we fight to the death to earn the maximum benefit. This is the kingly way."
