My harem can't be this messy

Chapter 585

"These two times of troop increase, the territory of Anxi that has been acquired originally belonged to Loulan, the people of Gaochang and other countries in the Western Regions are in panic. The surrounding Turkic and Tubo countries have also been paying attention to the movements of the Anxi army. If your majesty continues to increase troops, I am afraid it will Caused a lot of unnecessary trouble."

"Then Duke Wei thinks that if we don't increase our troops, there will be no troubles on the border, and the countries in the Western Regions will always be at peace, without any other thoughts?"

Wei Zheng didn't dare to answer Li Zhi's words. Not only Wei Zheng didn't dare to answer this sentence, even civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty didn't dare to answer it. Even if you look at China for 5000 years, no one dares to say yes.

Those who are not of our race must have a different heart. Since the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties, foreign races around China have often oppressed and plundered the border areas, and even once overthrew the Chinese regime.

And this time was the early Tang Dynasty. Before the early Tang Dynasty, China had a long history of being oppressed by foreign races. Although Xianbei had gradually melted into sweat and blood, it is undeniable that during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Xianbei, as a foreign race, had been oppressing Han people.

Except for Xianbei, Turks, and Tubo, who didn't leave a lot of blood debts in the land of China, the Tang Dynasty was strong, and the border gradually stabilized, the Eastern Turks were destroyed, and the Western Turks were weak, so they gradually stopped harassing the Tang Dynasty. The war did not stop until Princess Wencheng entered Tibet.

Wei Zheng didn't dare to answer, and didn't know how to answer.After a while, looking at the current Emperor Tang, he bowed slightly.

"Your Majesty, I still think that it is not easy for us to irritate those border peoples too much. After all, the stability of the border is the blessing of the Tang Dynasty."

Li Zhi waved his hand, looked at Wei Zheng, and now his eyes swept over the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty.

"True stability is never obtained by seeking, but by fighting. Well, let's retreat!"

After Li Zhi said this, he walked straight to the outside of the main hall, leaving Manchu civil and military behind, looking at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what to do.

It wasn't until a male duck shouted to withdraw from the court that at this moment, the civil and military personnel seemed to be relieved and looked at each other, and then someone took the lead and left the Hall of Liangyi one after another.

"Master Taiwei, what is His Majesty thinking?"

There, Wei Zheng had already caught up with Changsun Wuji who was walking ahead, and asked directly.

At this time, several officials of the court also approached here, and walked together with the eldest grandson Wuji Wei Zheng.

"What do you think His Majesty is thinking?"

Changsun Wuji asked a question without answering.

"Master Taiwei, let's go to Hongwen Pavilion to talk!"

Hongwen Pavilion has always been the place where Emperor Tang studied, and it was also a place to discuss state affairs with several high officials in the court. At this time Wei Zheng mentioned something, several people in the group looked at Changsun Wuji, Changsun Wuji nodded, and everyone walked towards Hongwen Pavilion.

When Li Zhi returned to Wanchun Hall, he had already received news that several important ministers had come to Hongwen Pavilion.

Li Zhi walked towards the Lizheng Hall, where the queen mother was playing chess with Sizi, this girl's chess skills were getting better and better, but whenever she played chess, she always wanted to beat her by playing chess with her sisters and younger brothers.

Helpless, Sizi can only play with his mother, his chess skills are advanced, but on his mother's side, he still draws all the time.

Chess and chess, and harmony.

"Zhi'er is here, I heard that Wei Zheng made you angry again in the early court?"

"Whenever he doesn't make me angry, even when my father is around, I don't suffer less from him."

Li Zhi was sitting next to him, and the Empress Dowager Changsun looked at Sizi and stood up.

"Sizi, stay here, the queen mother has time to accompany you to continue playing."

"Mother, that son-in-law is leaving!"

Sizi had already walked out of the Lizheng Hall, and the Empress Dowager Changsun looked at Li Zhi meaningfully.

"Are you really angry, or are you just letting them see? What the queen mother said was what you said when you retired in the morning."

"Does the queen mother think that what I said is wrong?"

"Some things come slowly, and it's always safer. For you, there is plenty of time. I heard that you called Zhijie back."

"General Cheng will return to Chang'an in a few days."

"Well, a word to my mother, to what size do you plan to expand the Anxi army? Is Zhijie going to Anxi?"

"At least [-], otherwise it will not be enough to suppress the Western Regions. As for whether General Cheng will go to Anxi, I don't know at this time. It depends on how the situation in Anxi changes."

"If you add fuel and jealousy slowly like this, Anxi's surroundings will definitely become unstable. It depends on who jumps up first."

"If my guess is correct, it must be Turk who jumped up first."

"My mother also thinks so. The Sui Dynasty used tricks to divide the Turks into two. The Eastern Turks perished, but the Western Turks have always been a problem in the Tang Dynasty. This kind of thing that harassed the border was not uncommon."

"Mother, the Western Turks are not destroyed, and the Western Regions are still unstable. Although Gaochang Loulan and other small countries in the Western Regions have surrendered to my Tang Dynasty, they still have other ideas in their hearts."

"You want to wait for Turk to jump up, why don't you take the initiative yourself?"

Li Zhi smiled, and held the hand of the Empress Dowager Changsun at this moment.

"I would like to be more proactive, but I have just succeeded to the throne, and the border has not been peaceful for a few years. The voices in the court still regard peace as the most important thing."

Li Zhi looked at the chessboard in front of the two of them, Lin Wanyue looked at Li Zhi, and did not say anything after all.Only when the Turks jumped out could he receive the least pressure from the court, and thus use heavy troops against the Western Turks.

Lin Wanyue looked at Li Zhi, although this kid is only 16 years old this year, his mind is rare.

"Li Zhi, are you going to Hongwen Pavilion later?"

"I won't go, I've made up my mind, there's nothing to discuss with those old officials, they want to discuss, and I can discuss it myself."

The corners of Lin Wanyue's lips curled up slightly. At this moment, she stretched out her hand, caressing the face of her cheap son, and looked at him seriously.

Although my son is not very old, no one can control his disposition. The only thing that can be changed is his way of doing things. As for the purpose, the purpose that Zhi'er believes, no one can control.

This is the blessing of the Tang Dynasty and the blessing of China.Lin Wanyue has always believed that the foreign race is immortal and China is restless. This has been proved by thousands of years of history. To prevent the tragic history from repeating itself, there is only one way to trample all the foreign races under the iron hoof. There is no other choice. .

Since Li Zhi was so determined in this regard, Lin Wanyue naturally didn't say much, she just stroked her son's cheek and smiled.

Hongwen Pavilion was lively at this time, and several important officials in the court were fighting fiercely.

What started to be debated was why His Majesty would continue to increase troops to Anxi, whether it was to suppress the restlessness of the countries in the Western Regions, or to arouse the dissatisfaction of the surrounding countries, or simply provoke disputes.

The next point of contention is how this continuous increase in troops will cause changes in the situation there.

Shangguanyi was listening to these important ministers arguing with each other, and then looked in the direction of Wanchun Hall. It had been half an hour, and His Majesty had no intention of coming here at all, and it seemed that he would not come.
