Li Tai has been unable to eat well these days and cannot sleep well. Once the Hexi Corridor has broken through the border forms of the Tang Dynasty for so many years, it will be burned. If Li Jing went... Even Cheng Yaojin and Gu Qing might be able to turn the situation around.

Li Tai couldn't help it anymore and hurried into the palace to find his father. He was in a hurry to run all the way and just ran into the crown prince Li Chengqian. Li Chengqian looked at his younger brother Li Tai, "Qingque, are you going to find his father?"

"Brother, are you?" Li Tai also looked at Li Chengqian in confusion. At this time, the father should have been on lunch break.

The two brothers looked at each other and understood each other's intentions. The Hexi Corridor was in a hurry again and again, and the father did not send any generals again.

In Ganlu Palace, Li Er did not rest, but looked at the memorial in front of him.

"Father!"

"Father!"

Li Tai and Li Chengqian walked into the Ganlu Palace and bowed to greet each other.

Li Er looked at his memorial with his eyes, "If you want to ask about the Hexi Corridor or come to propose marriage to Gu Qing, don't be irrelevant."

Li Chengqian: "Father, Hexi Corridor..."

"You can't hear what I said!" Li Er said angrily.

Li Tai's words were choked in his throat and couldn't speak.

The two brothers left the Ganlu Palace in disappointment. Li Tai and Li Chengqian walked apart at the entrance of the Ganlu Palace. With the anxiety in their hearts in mind, they came to the dungeon of Dali Temple again and found Gu Qing.

"Fatty?!" Gu Qing looked at Li Tai with a smile.

"Gu Qing!" Li Tai said anxiously, "What is the Father thinking? Are you just waiting to see the Hexi Corridor be broken?"

"How could I know?" Gu Qing thought, "Your father has so many capable people, what's wrong with me?"

...

Li Tai was angry when he saw Gu Qing's indifferent attitude, "Gu Qing, are you not in a hurry at all? Once the Hexi Corridor is broken, Tubo can go south and go straight to Chang'an. Do you think you can still live by your business?"

"Fatty, it's wrong to say this." Gu Qing said, "Of course I'm in a hurry, but what can I do in this Dali Temple?"

"I've been looking for my father and scolded me." Li Tai said in compromise and wanted to leave, "I'll go and talk to General Li Jing."

When Li Tai came to Li Jing's mansion, Li Jing stayed in the door and ignored the guests.

"What's wrong!" Li Tai roared on Zhuque Street, and the whole of Chang'an was in a hurry, shrouded in a tense atmosphere.

In Ganlu Palace, Wang Qin whispered to Li Er, "Your Majesty, there is something going on in Chang'an! Someone is spreading rumors, saying that Your Majesty..."

"Has the Lu family started?" Li Er had a gloomy face.

Wang Qin nodded. Among the aristocratic families, the Lu family has the toughest attitude, which is also a threat to the royal family. His Majesty asked Lu Yuan to be the Minister of Revenue to appease the Lu family. Now that Lu Yuan left the Ministry of Revenue is to tear his face to the Lu family, he has waited for the Lu family to emerge after waiting for the Lu family to emerge.

Another aspect is that Gu Qing. With Gu Qing’s new firearm, it may reverse the situation in the Hexi Corridor, but in recent years, he found that Gu Qing had done too many things secretly, which made His Majesty begin to be afraid and suspicious of Gu Qing.

Li Er put down the memorial in front of him again and said to Wang Qin, "Call Gu Qing."

"Yes!" Wang Qin nodded and said.

"Tell Li Junxian, who has been secretly protecting the bookstore." Li Er said loudly, "Let him go to the Lu family and take Lu Yuan's evidence of corruption and get people from the missing Lu Yuan."

Wang Qin knew that Your Majesty did not really want to find the Lu family to get someone. Lu Yuan’s life and death were unknown. If he fled to the Lu family, there would definitely be a spy. Your Majesty wanted to put pressure on the Lu family. During this period, the Lu family could not take too many actions. The war was about to come and the Tang Dynasty must be stable.

Gu Qing was sleeping at a nap. Wang Qin came to the dungeon of Dali Temple and looked at the guy sleeping Zhengxiang inexplicably angry, "Mr. Gu?"

Wang Qin saw Gu Qing sleeping soundly without any reaction, but just murmured and changed his sleeping position, then called out: "Mr. Marquis?"

"Who!" Gu Qing opened his eyes irritably, and saw that Wang Qin, an acquaintance, hurriedly stood up from the bed, "Why are you here?"

"Mr. Marquis, Your Majesty summoned me." Wang Qin had a warm smile on his face, "Mr. Gu, hurry up."

Gu Qing sat up and changed into prison uniforms, put on his usual clothes and walked out of Dali Temple and walked on Chang'an Street. As soon as Gu Qing walked out of Dali Temple, passers-by immediately looked over. Many people knew Gu Qing, the general of the Central Army that year.

Taking a step, Gu Qing came to the palace gate and took a deep breath and followed Wang Qin into the palace gate. He came all the way to the Ganlu Palace and met Li Er.

"Gu Qing, are life in Dali Temple still comfortable?" Li Er said to him.

"It's pretty good." Gu Qing said with a smile.

"It's great?" Li Er sneered, "Then how long do you want to stay in there?"

"If nothing happens, who would want to stay inside?" Gu Qing replied shyly.

Li Er walked to Gu Qing step by step and whispered, "Do you know why I drove you into Dali Temple?"

"Your Majesty does this naturally have the intention of Your Majesty, and I dare not speculate on it." Gu Qing bowed and answered again.

"Stop pretending!" Li Er breathed heavily, "You know clearly in your heart. I don't like your intelligence very much, and I like you to pretend to be confused."

"Your Majesty asked me to pretend to be confused, but I pretend to be confused." Gu Qing said with a smile.

"You kid..." Li Er shook his head and said, "Tell me, how many layers of confidence are you sure about the war in the Hexi Corridor."

"As long as Your Majesty gives me enough manpower and materials, I am 80% sure." Gu Qing looked up at Li Er's face, "It's just a group of animals, and it's not difficult to deal with."

"Do you have a way to deal with those war elephants?" Li Er asked again.

Gu Qing nodded.

Li Er continued, "Gu Qing, what do you think if you win Tubo?"

"I..." Gu Qing thought for a while before speaking, "I went back to the village and focused on teaching and building a factory."

"Okay!" Li Er nodded, "You go home and prepare. I will grant you the military commander of Hexi Road. I will give you 50,000 elite soldiers and 10,000 civilians to make firearms and wipe out the Tubo army within three months."

"I accept the order." Gu Qing answered without hesitation.

Hexi Corridor...

Su Dingfang was covered in blood, stepped over the corpses all over the ground, pulled Yuchi Gong and shouted loudly, "General! Let's retreat! I can't hold on!"

"Don't retreat!" Yuchi Gong shook Su Dingfang's hand away, "Hexi Corridor is here, I, Yuchi Jingde, are there!"

"If you continue to fight, you will only die in vain!" Su Dingfang said loudly, "If you stay in the green mountains, you will not be afraid of burning firewood. We retreat for more than ten miles and can echo General Li Jie in the rear!"

"Are you ordering me?" Yuchi Gong cursed angrily, his eyes red.

The bleak wind blew across the battlefield, and the smoke and war were choking in the mess.
