"Looking at the civil and military affairs of the court, on the issue of the prince, you are the only one who can help me secretly protect him, and no one else can trust him." Li Er sighed.

"Your Majesty said where did you go? This is too great, how can I afford it?" Du Shaoqing beat him up.

Li Er's face turned dark and scolded, "Tell me, father-in-law, don't shirk my responsibilities with me.

The Taiji Hall killed people on the spot, and the Political Affairs Hall did whatever it wanted. Is there anything you, Du Shaoqing, afraid of in this world?"

I... Du Shaoqing thought about it for a long time, and it seemed that he was right. No one could do these two things.

After a moment of silence, Li Er spoke, "There are too many affairs in the court, and I am afraid I have no time to distract myself, so you must pay more attention to Chengqian's safety. If you lack people and strength, just speak. Although you and him have no name as master and apprentice, they have the reality of master and apprentice.

I am not a false statement about the matter of the Prince Young Master. When you are thirty years old, you will be promoted to the Second-rank Prince Young Master, and you will be promoted to the title of Duke of the Kingdom, and you will share the glory with your father."

Du Shaoqing was stunned for a moment and said weakly: "Father-in-law, I am only twenty-three years old this year."

"Well? Why? Do you think it's too late? A 30-year-old second-rank official, the Duke of the dynasty, is afraid that you are the only one in the world except for the royal family. Do you still want to have it now? Although they are all void officials, if you give it to you now, then the pillars of my hall can be broken by the censor." Li Er frowned.

"No, I mean, what can I do when I am young? I give me a high official and generous salary, but it's just a hot potato. How dare I ask for it?" Du Shaoqing waved his hand.

Li Er said with a cold face: "Where did the little dynasty despise the civil and military spirit of the court before? This matter is settled!

Let’s talk about you and the auxiliary machine. The assassin who poisoned Xiao Chong was found.”

While speaking, Li Er looked at Du Shaoqing in scrutiny. Du Shaoqing was shocked and then said relieved: "Everyone knows this person, so what if I find it?"

"you……

You kid, you are really a fool. You ruined such a good young talent in the Tang Dynasty in just one sentence, and you are competitive for the young people? As for?" Li Er educated.

Du Shaoqing sneered: "When he said this, I'm afraid that Your Majesty has never visited this young talent yet! You should ask him, did you think about cherishing talents for the country when he hired a killer? Have you ever thought about countless people who suffered from the plague in Hebei Province?"

Li Er already knew the whole story of this matter, and knew that he had no way to argue, so he could only change his words and said, "Forget it, I want to ask you, but I can't ease with the auxiliary machine? Why do you have to decide the winner? I and the queen are in a difficult situation if you do this."

Since everything was clear, Du Shaoqing simply stood up and straightened his chest and said loudly: "I'm wrong, it's not about the winner, it's about life and death!

Having said that, I'm not afraid to tell you that Lu Dongzan sent a killer to assassinate and blame me. It was done seamlessly, and I almost lie in the death row all my life.

After escaping by chance, he sent a killer to chase the southwest battlefield and mixed up with a Tubo crossbowman to shoot me with poisonous arrows. You may never imagine how I can save my life.

I know that Your Majesty cannot live without this brother-in-law, but I want to ask, if these two assassins are placed on Your Majesty, can the enemy survive?"

you……

Li Er was speechless by Du Shaoqing's words. Not to mention it on himself, it would be unreasonable to put it on anyone.

At this point, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty finally knew the truth. It turned out that the situation was more serious than he had imagined. Both sides were dying, but how could this work? One was a young friend, a pillar of the country, and a real left-hand man; the other was a beloved son-in-law, who overwhelmed the young talents of the same generation, representing the future of the Tang Dynasty. No matter who made any mistakes, the Tang Dynasty could not afford to lose.

After being silent for a long time, Li Er waved his hand to signal Du Shaoqing to sit down, not to be excited, and advised warmly: "The real cause of this incident was Changsun Chong's momentary confusion, why did he make such a big fuss?

I know you have suffered a grievance, but think about it, you are not a poor and ignorant boy in Luoxia Town, nor are you alone and carefree.

You also have family members and children. If you really make trouble, what should your family do if you keep going with them?

I didn’t mean to help anyone. I have seen so many grudges and hatreds, but in the end they were both defeated. Everyone will regret it. It’s too late to regret it!”

After a moment of silence, Du Shaoqing said in a deep voice: "Damn it is not as good as his wife and children. If he dares not recognize his relatives and touches a hair in my family, I want him to keep the entire Changsun family."

Li Er looked at Du Shaoqing full of murderous aura and felt a little cold in his heart, and cursed with some powerlessness: "I can't get foolish! I can't get foolish!

You would think so. If you really take down the other party, how many people from the Changsun family will be? No one will think so? How many people in your Du family can get in? Can you afford it?"

Du Shaoqing was asked, and after a long time, he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Some things are destined since I promised to enter Chang'an. No, maybe from the time I met Changle, the wheel of fate has been pushed. You have experienced many knowledges and are probably better at understanding the principle of chess for chess than your son-in-law.

Thank you for your kindness and care, and your son-in-law is grateful."

At this point, I'm afraid that it would be useless to say too much, Li Er knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he could only change his words again and said tactfully: "Since that's the case, I want you to have a guarantee. No matter how the grudge between you two is the result, I don't want to see anything happen to either side when I and the queen are still alive.

Although the queen noticed this, she was not aware of it. Until you and I, you should not let others know about it.

I will go to talk to him in person on the auxiliary machine side, so you can give me a guarantee today."

This... Du Shaoqing didn't expect that there would be such a sentence at the end, but after thinking about it, he was grateful to this father-in-law. With a seemingly tough attitude, he was vaguely protecting the Du family. After all, Du Shaoqing was young and had no background, which gave him enough time to grow up.

Of course, if Changsun Wuji's lifespan is not long and he dies early, it is an agreement that is beneficial to Changsun Wuji. No matter what, such a decision puts the fight on the table is a good thing for the Tang Dynasty, and Li Er is really clever.

Just as the Tang Dynasty was celebrating the great victory of the country's destruction in Chang'an City, the news of the destruction of Tubo gradually spread to all countries, and almost all the surrounding countries were shocked. The Tang Dynasty started a war in a hurry and was unprepared to destroy the country in one year?

Is it an exaggerated rumor or a conspiracy they have planned for a long time?

The surrounding countries sent messengers to use secret stakes to confirm the facts. The answers they got were shocking. It was really a destruction of the country. The 50,000 troops destroyed Tubo. That was the overlord of the southwest.

When the Eastern Turks Jie Li dominated the north and suppressed the Tang Dynasty ten years ago, Tubo became famous in the southwest. The Tang Dynasty destroyed the Eastern Turks Jie Li, but could only comfort Tubo in the southwest. This behavior made other countries recognize the status of Tubo as a great power.

But what is going on today? Seven years after the Eastern Turks were destroyed, another overlord fell. What will be next? Will it be world peace? Or is it our turn? This question has caused the monarchs of the four border countries to collectively insomnia.
