Chapter 315 Tang King's Anxiety

The imperial city, Chang'an.

In the same night, under the eaves of Cheng's mansion, the woman looked at the first flashing light in the sky and frowned.

"Son, the war on the border of the Western Expedition has changed drastically. Don't be as reckless as your father. You should talk to your father in your spare time."

"After all, I am old and not as vigorous as when I was young. Don't commit messy things, and let my old mother feel uneasy in the mansion."

Whispering words were euphemistic, the always strong figure had rosy eyes, his bare hands were twisted together, and his voice was a bit intermittent.

"I heard that the army is trapped... you four, father and son, don't make any trouble..."

Thunder God grew louder to cover up the voice of the words behind him, and for a moment, the figure in unlined clothing seemed to lift his sleeves and wipe the corners of his eyes.

Under the gloomy clouds for several days, the vision passed through the pattering rain curtain, the rainwater slid down the majestic palace, and dripped down the roof like broken beads.

The maid carefully brought the brewed tea and walked across the eaves, stopped behind the figure standing quietly watching the scenery, put the steaming tea on the desk, lowered her eyes and called out in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, the tea is ready."

In the eyes, the body slightly raised its arms, bowed cautiously, and walked away carefully, not daring to make a sound, for fear of disturbing the pensive king.

Walking to the corner, I ran into the grand-looking Empress Changsun with slightly wrinkled eyebrows, and bowed sideways.

"Has Your Majesty ever eaten breakfast?"

There was a touch of sternness and majesty in the mature and intellectual voice, which resounded softly in the ears, and the maid did not dare to neglect, she folded her hands and responded.

"Your Majesty hasn't eaten much in recent days, and the cooks in the imperial dining room have also changed a batch, but they still don't have much appetite."

"It's just that the tea is not drinkable, and the servant just poured a pot."

Dai's eyebrows became more and more deeply wrinkled, Empress Changsun stared at the figure in the corridor, took a breath, and waved her hands slowly.

Containing the worry on her face again, Empress Changsun put on a smiling face and moved over with lotus steps.

"His Majesty."

"Ah."

Li Shimin pursed his lips lightly, without turning around, he said lightly.

"The maid of Guanyin is here."

Cong Nenyu took Li Shimin's arms from her side, and Empress Changsun stood quietly in the corridor, following Li Shimin's eyes to look at the back garden where new shoots had sprouted, she pondered for a moment, and then turned her gaze back to that solemn face.

"His Majesty."

"This time Lingzhou is under siege, Li Xian's solitary army must have gone deep to find some way to solve the crisis of Lingzhou. Your Majesty should just wait for the news."

Call ~
There was a heavy sigh.

The buds washed by the rain swayed in the faint morning light, Li Shimin looked away from these vibrant scenes, and gently patted Rouyi in the crook of his upper arm with his big hand, and said calmly.

"The solitary army goes deep to see how big the action is. Li Xian has never been a troublemaker. I am still afraid that this kid will not be able to use it on the border."

"For the first time on the battlefield, it is such a turning point. It is hard for this kid to say."

Turning around and sitting on the wooden chair behind him, Li Shimin squeezed hot tea, looked at the clear tea, and fell into deep thought.

"This kid has always been lazy and has never been on the battlefield. It was a mistake to be separated from Li Jing."

"The newly trained soldiers have never experienced a war. The mountain of corpses and blood on the battlefield alone is enough for them to suffer."

"I often disagree with the courtiers in the court, and I don't know what will happen on the Li Ke battlefield."

Li Shimin, who has always been kind and generous, is not a sentimental person. Empress Changsun knows it. She can say these trivial things for Li Xian this time, and Empress Changsun knows that she is worried about Li Xian.

Lifting the teapot and pouring the hot tea into the half-emptied cup again, Mei Mou glanced at the frowning figure on the opposite side and said with a slight smile.

"Li Xian, this kid has always been good at heart. He can play around with the Tuyuhun army, which is mainly composed of cavalry, on the broad leaves. Why is Your Majesty so anxious?"

"It will definitely be able to survive on the battlefield. Your Majesty should be careful about the body of the dragon, and just wait for them to celebrate when they triumph."

After hearing such comfort, Li Shimin's face did not look too happy, but became more worried.

After taking another sip of hot tea, the tiger's eyes moved to Empress Changsun's face.

"A report from the southwestern frontier, Tubo stationed troops on the border wantonly, intending to get involved in the Tuyuhun war."

"As early as when Lu Anzan visited the Tang Dynasty, he was aggressive everywhere. I don't know what his intentions are. I'm afraid this time he is an enemy rather than a friend."

Putting down the teacup heavily, a gleam of light flashed across Li Shimin's face.

"My Tang Xiu has been living and resting for several years. These neighbors, this visit is more or less tentative, and the ambition behind it is clearly revealed."

"It's time to give them some response. I ordered the southwestern armies to prepare for war and advance several miles along the border. When they know the purpose of the Tubo soldiers coming, they must arrive at the junction of the three countries and be on standby at any time. Chai Shao has been ordered to mobilize. "

After hearing this, Empress Changsun, the relaxed look on her face gradually dissipated, and turned into a bit dignified.

"This Tubo country is located on the plateau border. In recent years, it has been rectifying internal strife and has rarely negotiated with other countries."

"If you took advantage of the opportunity to enter this time, it would be a bit like taking advantage of Tuyuhun's battle with Datang to make trouble."

"This country that has risen from the plateau cannot be underestimated."

snort!
Li Shimin raised his thick eyebrows slightly, his face turned cold.

"The incidents in the imperial city on the border of the Tang Dynasty have not stopped, and they are actually thinking of taking advantage of the border."

"Then let him take a look, my Tang's soldiers are sharp."

……

Southwest border.

Lu Anzan was dressed in a military uniform, and the scimitar he wore was inserted straight into the ground. Looking at the [-] soldiers stretching behind him, he reined in his horse.

"The whole army is ready! Rest on the spot!"

"Waiting for news from the scouts, make a decision here."

The messenger at the side immediately galloped out, and the roar resounded throughout the winding army for a moment.

The accompanying general, Lun Qinling, dragging a suit of armor, hurried over, sat down next to Tubo Prime Minister, and looked at the valley in front of him along the sunlight.

"Major Minister, after crossing this valley and crossing the Nuoyi River ahead, we will not be far from Tuyuhun."

"Why do we help Datang in this way? Why don't we take advantage of the fact that the two armies are fighting and depleting their strength, and take the entire Tuyuhun into their pocket?"

Regarding the humiliation of his younger brother in the Tang Dynasty, Lun Qinling somewhat held a grudge, so when he said these words again, he was somewhat indignant.

Even this military wizard was a little bit dissatisfied and disdainful about making a wedding dress for Datang on such an expedition.

Lu Anzan understood this arrogant general and his temperament like the palm of his hand, so he didn't refute it in public, and waved his hand to signal him to sit on the stone platform beside him.

Looking at the eagle soaring in the blue sky, Tubo Prime Minister Lu Anzan pointed to the past.

"The eagle strikes the sky to overlook the creatures in the world, because it is the overlord of the sky."

"It's the same for us Tubo. If we want to gain a firm foothold in the Kyushu, we must not only see the Great Tang, but also the surrounding countries."

"Right now the Tang Dynasty is far more miserable than you think. Many things are still on top of our Tubo. Establishing diplomatic relations with it is not only to take some useful things out of it, but more importantly, to put the whole of Tubo in complete peace and prosperity. The position of interest, in order to make further progress by leaps and bounds."

The words stopped, and Lu An Zan continued.

"Currently, the agricultural and mulberry system in the Tang Dynasty has been restructured, and the country is prosperous. Tubo has to avoid the edge for the time being, in order to be safe."

"Send the order, send out the scouts, and go to the border of Lingzhou. I want to see how the Tang soldiers break the situation."

"Paying attention to the generation in the border town, I have a hunch that Li Xian is sure to make some noise here."
