Chapter 317 Mortal Dust
Yunxiu said again: "I sensed a murderous aura in you."

Wang Hua had the intention to kill. If she brought the news back and let Li Dan know that she had a strong wariness against him, the consequences could be imagined.

It is not impossible to kill her. In the dark, her elusive skill would be annoying, but in the open, even dozens of soldiers with bows and arrows can kill her.

But he laughed and said, "Why do I have murderous intent? Because of the bloody camp, I must be on guard. I don't want to kill you."

Yunxiu's feet were still posing in the river, very freely.

It's just that she untied herself, revealing a pretty and delicate face.

Wang Hua was puzzled, why did she show her face to herself now?
She turned her head and looked at Wang Hua.Wang Hua was also looking at her, but her face was not as cold as when she saw her for the first time. Although there was still a chill, it seemed to be in the human category.

The belated spring breeze from the northwest blows her hair stupefiedly, and also makes her white clothes flutter gently.There is a little dusty taste.

Squinting his eyes slightly, he said, "Of course, my sect has some influence, and I brought back dozens of soldiers from the Scarlet Battalion for you. It's not justifiable for you to kill me now."

"Well, Daoist, let's not talk about these, let's talk about what help you brought, and how you remembered that I would help Persia."

"No, it's very important for me to talk to you about these things. This time I agreed to King Xiang, of course because I want my father to have a comfortable old age, and there is another reason. The master said that my heart is not exhausted, so I am not interested in cultivating the Tao. It is very beneficial. You should also know the Shangqing school, so you can learn from nature."

Wang Hua didn't make a sound. He listened to Yunxiu's words while looking into the distance.

Under a row of trees in the distance, Xiao Yuzhen was talking with Zhang Xiaosong and the others, covering her mouth with her little hand from time to time, obviously hearing many things that surprised her.

In the past few months, the chilly wind from the northwest has made her face a little plateau red, but she has become healthier.At the same time, the height has also been raised, standing under the green poplar tree, like a fresh young white poplar.

She was also looking this way from time to time, but she didn't come over sensiblely.

Yunxiu said again: "That's why the master said to let me go through the tribulations of the world, experience the mortal mind first, and then break the mortal mind."

Wang Hua turned around in surprise, but Yunxiu looked at the fragrant grasses touching the sky in the distance, and didn't pay attention to the change of expression on his face.

But Wang Hua thought about it and felt relieved.Taoism developed into the Tang Dynasty, and there were a series of theories. The same is true for Buddhism. After countless changes, it has been very different from Tianzhu's teachings. It has added more Taoist and Confucian cultures. It is not surprising that the Shangqing School has this way of speaking, whether it is a mountain or a mountain.Some of the things written in the later martial arts novels also evolved from this theory of Taoism and interpretation.Just exaggerating a little bit.

Yunxiu smoothed the messy hair on her sideburns with her hands, and continued: "Not only is it family affection, but I am very old, and I am also very curious about other emotions in the world."

She's not very old either, she's only in her early twenties, but to people nowadays, she's already considered an older girl.Wang Hua also understood the other emotions she mentioned.

The difference is that when she said this, her attitude was natural and she didn't feel shy at all.

"That day when your master forced me, I suddenly thought that this is also an opportunity for me. As for my peers, there are not many people who really fascinate me. Maybe the eldest son Li Longji is one of them."

"That's right. He is talented and broad-minded. He must be a generation of dragons and phoenixes in the future. He is a good candidate in the Taoist priest's heart."

"Could it be that Erlang is in such a hurry that he wants to give me away?" Yunxiu looked back at him reproachfully, her blue eyes suddenly flashing with all sorts of amorous feelings.

Even Wang Hua was taken aback.

Yunxiu smiled triumphantly again, showing her white teeth, and said, "It's more or less like this. Governor Wang Ying is very wary of me, even dismissive, which makes me very sad."

Wang Hua thought to himself, don't, do you want to practice Taoism and Demon Dual Cultivation with me?
As for her so-called Taoism, Wang Hua can still understand a little bit, and this experience of love and calamity is purely out of the scope of his reason.

"I've heard many things about Wang Yingdu. Among people of the same age, you are the best. But I'm a little disappointed," she turned her head to look at Wang Hua and asked, "Do you know how disappointed I am?"

"Didn't cooperate with you, let you go through the heart?"

"No, this is a chance. You can't force it. If you force it, you will lose your heart. I'm talking about your character."

"Character?"

"It's character. I've heard Xiang Wang talk about some things about you, including what you said about Wei Xianggong. Forgive me for being rude, because I want to be your maid, so I must have a good relationship with you." Learn more about it."

Here it comes again, Wang Hua waved his hand: "Let's not talk about the maidservant for now, you can continue to talk about it."

"Actually, King Xiang doesn't know right or wrong about your thoughts. Wei Xianggong and the others regard their family as their country, and you regard their country as their country. Therefore, King Xiang asked my master."

Yunxiu just passed by here without saying much.But Wang Hua knew that it was not that simple. In the eyes of many people, the world belonged to the Li family, and they would not think that the world belonged to the people in the world.It is even possible that Li Dan will think that his idea is not an idea of ​​treason.

"But my master appreciates your idea very much, and he can't stop praising you." Yunxiu didn't say a word after that, and it was precisely because of this that she voluntarily agreed to the request of that unknown Taoist priest to enter the Wang family as a maid. Sima Chengzhen did not intervene.She continued: "I haven't been with you for a long time. Your thoughts are closer to the righteousness than Wei Xianggong and the others. However, although Wei Xianggong and the others hold small righteousness and have no distracting thoughts, you have more selfishness." .even though you do a better job than most, including your relief of the poor."

Wang Hua sneered and said, "Please tell me who has no selfish intentions? Xiao He knew that Han Xin would not rebel, but he still assisted Empress Lu to kill Han Xin. Although Prime Minister Fang Xuanling was conscientious in his position, he was still timid and cautious. , It is not as good as Wei Zheng. The abolished prince treats Wei Zheng like a confidant, but Wei Zheng also took refuge in Taizong after the abolished prince was killed by Taizong. Why? Besides, for the happiness of his family, he did not hesitate to descend into the mortal world, in the mortal world Running around. It’s just this kind of selfishness, if you don’t betray the country or harm the people, what’s wrong with it?”

The two generations of Wang Hua never talked about patriotism, but he never bought Japanese goods or traveled to the Japanese country. The wealth he earned was also earned through legitimate means. Occasionally wandering in the gray area is also within the rules .But he will not hand over the happy life of himself and his family to some people who don't know the so-called.He didn't know it in his previous life, and he won't in this life.

As for cutting off his wife's flesh for Liu Bei to eat like Liu An, it is better to force Wang Hua to rebel earlier.

But the current people's concept thinks that Liu An's behavior is truly loyal.

As for selfishness, which one is not, that is, Confucius still likes to listen to music and enjoy delicious food.It just behaves differently.

After Wang Hua said a few words, seeing Yunxiu's pretty and unparalleled face, she just smiled and didn't explain, or she was out of touch with the mundane world, and she didn't bother to explain to him.Knowing that it's useless to say it, this is the collision of two ideas, even after thousands of years of generation gap, Wang Hua didn't say any more, and asked instead: "It's my selfishness, but why didn't the Taoist choose the son?"

"If I choose the son of the world, can I still have the time to break through the mortal heart?"

Being Li Longji's wife and concubine is not called a wife and concubine, but a concubine. If you want to become a monk in the future, it will be more difficult than going to heaven.Unless she really has the ability to call the wind and rain, it will make all the secular regimes feel afraid.

"If selfishness is serious, guarding must be serious, but Wang Yingdu, please rest assured, I am a person who cultivates the Tao, and I will not commit murder, and Wang Yingdu is not a vicious person."

You said you can rest assured that I am relieved?Wang Hua sneered in his heart.

"But after several months of thinking, I think that no one is perfect, and nothing is perfect, especially Wang Yingdu's concern for his subordinates. Speaking of it, it's not bad. And come to this point, including your master's pressing, Maybe it's a kind of fate, if I refuse, it's a strong resistance to God's will."

Wang Hua sneered again in his heart, it was you who approved it, and I needed it.

Seeing Wang Hua's expression, the cold and beautiful girl seemed to know his intentions, and immediately changed the subject and said, "Next, I will talk about another thing. This time I found your subordinates. Some places in Qishi, and some places in Tocharo after returning. In Tuqishi, I was lucky enough to meet some people from the original Turkic ten-surnamed tribe. Luo."

The decline of Western Turks was certainly due to the fact that Tubo, Tuqishi, and Eastern Turks were attacking each other in turn, but it also had a great relationship with Western Turks themselves. When Le led Tuqishi to rise, many tribes quickly surrendered Uzhile.

When Wuzhile besieged Xiao Song's army, many other tribes with ten surnames participated in the siege.

But this matter is no longer a problem. Huseruo fled to Chang'an in fright, and the court also appointed a new Khan, who will never come back.If there are a large number of these tribes, it is of great significance to weaken the strength of Tuqishi.

This is all good news.

But if she wants to reach this agreement, I'm afraid she needs her assistance. The reason is her identity. Even she thinks she is a Persian. Besides, other people have no problem in appearance. Although they have black hair, they have fair skin and green eyes. , more like an alien.In the midst of resisting the strength of the Great Food, all ethnic groups in the Western Regions had close contacts with Persia.

This makes her more persuasive.

"There is one more thing. The Great Khan of Tocharian can also assist you, but he wants you Tang Dynasty to agree to some conditions for him."

This is even more good news, but after Wang Hua thought about it, he realized that it was Dashi, and Dashi had been going north all these years.In the face of the Great Food, not only the various ministries of the Western Regions need to join forces to fight, but also the support of the Tang Dynasty and even the Tubo people. If the current situation is broken, and the Tang Dynasty and Tuqi Shi are inextricably linked, then Tuqi Shi will either become stronger or weaker.It has become stronger, and Tochara is in the cracks, it is more difficult to survive, and it has become weaker, unable to compete with Dashi.But it doesn't matter if the Tang Dynasty lost the area west of Tianshan Mountain. It was originally a restricted area. At worst, it will lose control just like the East Turks.

The best result is that the Western Turks regain their lost land, which is impossible.

This means that Tucharo already agrees with Tuqishi, but he doesn't want Ge Bian to undergo unexpected changes.

The so-called mutual assistance is just sending troops to support it, not a real battle.But this was of great help to the Tang Dynasty in negotiating peace.

Wang Hua asked, "What conditions does he need?"

"Fame and some rewards, but don't worry, the rewards he asked for, as long as the court pretends to be enough, the main thing is fame. Only in this way can he have a reason to send troops."

After hearing this, Wang Hua smiled and said, "I can promise you."

"I didn't agree to me, but to the Tucharians. Wang Yingdu, in terms of talent and wisdom, he is unparalleled in the world. Unfortunately, he is too selfish and has too many distracting thoughts. I have seen some porcelain made by you. It seems that I am in it. Look at Dao Xin. If Wang Yingdu always maintains a heart for making utensils, then the heart will be clean and will not be deceived by the appearance of many things."

"You don't say anything, the way of heaven is far away, I'm not interested in it."

Wang Hua was really not interested in these things about ghosts, but Wang Hua looked at her curiously and asked, "Why did you untie Luo Luo?"

"Erlang is cold to me. Originally, I was afraid that because of my appearance, you would only pay attention to my appearance, but you would lose that love." Her self-confident words are not too much. If her appearance is not Cold, it is possible to make most people dump.

"But I have also lost my confidence. Now I will show you my real appearance, and I hope Erlang will pay more attention to the little girl. So that I can experience the taste of love." When she said this, she always had The coquettish atmosphere made her charming and charming for a while, like a winter plum blooming in the wind and snow, Wang Hua almost lost her self-control again.

Wang Hua turned her face away, avoiding her radiant face, and said, "I'm afraid the Taoist priest will be disappointed again. My thoughts are completely different from ordinary people. If you really moved me, it means that you have escaped from the mortal world and returned to the world. Tiantai Mountain, I will lead my men to force you out of Tiantai Mountain."

"Then I'll wait and see," she said, lowering her head and giggling.

It's just that the people in the distance were surprised. They all knew the taste of this ice beauty, but they didn't know what Wang Hua said to her, but it made her smile for the first time.

But Wang Hua didn't play any Taoist games with her,

It was going to be March soon, and he didn't have much time left in terms of the entire military operation.Tubo's new Zanpu ascended the throne, and the political situation gradually stabilized. Mochuu began to fire the first shot. Tu Qishi was a little hesitant now. If he really decided to join Motu's camp, it would inevitably cause a chain reaction.It is possible that Da Zuorong turned his back on the water again. Following Tubo's several failures in the past few years and the hostage of Zanpo's revenge, the borders of the Tang Dynasty will inevitably be full of wars.

At the least, countless Tang troops were killed or injured, and at worst, all the places outside the pass to the west of the Hexi Corridor were completely lost. In that case, there must be ministers taking advantage of the situation to force Wu Zetian to abdicate.Then what?The blame for this battle will still be pushed on his own head, don't be reasonable, the military food officer is clearly innocent, but Cao Cao borrowed the head.

Don't listen to what the Three Kingdoms say, in fact, Cao Cao is the most accomplished in the Three Kingdoms, let alone what Song Gaozong did later.

Also, I have a lot of personal affairs, and at the same time, I need to arrange time, so I can't always stay in the northwest.

And some big families listened to the news they let out, and began to enter the Hexi Corridor and even to the northwest to grow cotton.This is also an important point.The reason why this place was lost repeatedly was because of the interests, and the interests were not seen. The monarchs of all dynasties did not pay much attention to the Northwest, and the occupation was only for the simple purpose of opening up territories, so Di Renjie also repeatedly opposed it.

If the Northwest Cotton begins to be officially popularized, it will have great significance and changes to the future direction of Chinese history.

This has to be pinned on the smooth transition of the Northwest political situation, otherwise that big family would dare to go to the Northwest to invest?
Wang Hua asked again: "Thank you for the good news this time, Taoist priest, but I will not lie to Taoist priest. I can't do anything to help Persia."

Yunxiu stretched out her slender fingers and drew on Wang Hua's chest, which gave her a more coquettish air, and said, "So I say you are deluded. Little girls are not good at politics and military affairs, let alone Jun But Dashi and Turkic are the same. There are many tribes, and there are many tribes and countries that are hostile to Dashi. They only temporarily succumb to Dashi's iron ride. If they don't stop them, they will continue to go north, and finally violate the interests of Dazhou. This is not a little girl's request, and it will be of great benefit to Da Zhou."

Wang Hua still shook his head.

Even if she broke her mouth, it didn't work.Or it doesn't work if she is really tempted by herself.

Beauty is beauty, but Wang Hua is not a womanizer when she sees a person who gets carried away with beauty.

Now that the overall military strength of the Tang Dynasty is weak, it is very difficult to deal with the Eastern Turks, not to mention that it is not far away, to the Dashi territory.Either there is a way, like the Scarlet Battalion, which uses war to support war. Huo Qubing has done this before, but he can only draw a few thousand troops.Thousands of troops, that is, the Scarlet Battalion, or the army at the peak of the early Tang Dynasty, led by the military god Li Jing, at most would not cause some skin injuries to the now powerful Dashi, and would not break Dashi.

At most, Wang Hua had some knowledge of later generations. He didn't even have the confidence to surpass Guo Yuanzhen in military ability, let alone Li Jing.

Or leading an army of tens of thousands may not necessarily succeed, what should I do if there are still supplies?And still in an unfamiliar environment, how many Tang Dynasty soldiers adapted to the hot weather in the Persian Gulf, the boundless desert and Gobi?It is possible that the telescope will not function normally even in the desert.

No matter how impulsive Wang Hua was, it was impossible for him to agree.

But Wang Hua looked at the face of this ice beauty and didn't show any disappointment when she saw her.Instead, he said with a smile: "So I say you have deceived your mind. Dashi will go north sooner or later. As long as the governor Wang can propose to give Dashi a head-on blow, and Dashi encounters one or several fiascos, then their body It will be broken faster than the silent Turkic state."

Wang Hua looked at her again in surprise.

Yunxiu smiled again, and said: "Don't look at me, I plan to go through the world, so I will pay attention to some world affairs. I don't know how to do it specifically, but I should have some understanding of some general trends."

"But the Taoist priest forgot one thing. This is far from what I said, and it can be counted."

Yunxiu suddenly leaned over, and a faint fragrance immediately floated into Wang Hua's nose.It seems that everyone has the desire to love beauty, even this so-called iceberg girl who pursues Dao Xin has put on balm.

She said: "Erlang's talent, I believe that after a few years, he will be more powerful than he is now. Don't forget your age, talent, and today's status. And your master also told me that you will Being able to control the world will be of great benefit to our people, so I am asked to help you. So at that time, you will definitely have the right to speak."

Then he left his ear and said: "Of course, it is up to people to plan things and God to make things happen. If Erlang is unable to do it that day, I will not blame you."

"Okay, I promise you," Wang Hua held out his hand.

It's that boss again, but he is not interested in politics. All along, he has been working hard only for self-protection and Li Gu'er's safety. Maybe he will become a powerful minister, but it has nothing to do with controlling the world.If he really had such power, it would be a good idea to help. He didn't want Gao Xianzhi's disastrous defeat to happen, but his face darkened, and he said: "That's what he's talking about, the Taoist priest can't take it seriously, let alone spread it out."

Control the world?If it gets out, I'm afraid Lao Wu will be the first to deal with him.This stinky Taoist said this is not helping himself, but hurting himself!

Yunxiu said: "I'm not in love right now, my mind is still very clear, I know the consequences."

Wang Hua said solemnly again: "There is one more thing. The Taoist priest is half of the Han blood. Don't really think that you are a Persian."

"Is this important? Why are there many fighters from other tribes besides the orthodox Han people in the Erlang Blood Camp?"

Wang Hua was speechless again, as if the concept of country and nation is really blurred now.Only in the Song Dynasty, after experiencing repeated ravages and confrontations by the Jin people and the Mongolian people, did the national concept become prominent.

He stood up, called Guo Yuanzhen over, and immediately discussed.

Hearing this news, Guo Yuanzhen was even happier than Wang Hua, and now tens of thousands of troops are assembled to threaten the Tuqi.This is not purely the army of the Tang Dynasty, most of them are composed of fighters from various tribes in the Western Regions. This is the strategy formulated by Li Shimin to control the barbarians with barbarians.

However, the ministries of the Western Regions were nominally under the protection of the Tang Dynasty, and they paid tribute and taxes to some extent.Coupled with the assembly of tens of thousands of troops, it has increased the burden on the court and various ministries.Considering the consequences of the attack, they dare not really attack. Disbanding Tuqishi may take the opportunity to counterattack, and the consequences will be even worse. Once the war starts, it will be an endless situation.

If this problem is solved earlier, it will be of great benefit to the country and the Western Regions.

Wang Hua said again: "There is one more thing we can use, give Wu Zhi a candy."

Guo Yuanzhen looked at Wang Hua suspiciously. This time, the Tang Dynasty had given enough benefits in order to make Wu Zhile return to the Tang Dynasty. As long as it was within the acceptable range, Wu Zetian had already issued an order to agree.What sugar?

Wang Hua said, "Cotton."

"cotton?"

Wang Hua nodded.

He had an impression that a friend in his previous life was in the textile industry and had imported cotton from Kazakhstan many times.Wang Huacai knew that Kazakhstan is an important cotton exporting country. In order to grow cotton, a large amount of irrigation has almost dried up more than half of the Aral Sea.affect the local ecological balance.

Now cotton is grown in many places in the Western Regions, including Dashi, but the planting methods are outdated, and there is still a season problem that cannot increase the yield, that is, the time for raising seedlings.It's almost March, but it's still very cold at night in the Northwest.

The time for cotton seedlings can only be delayed. In the previous life, plastic greenhouses were used to solve the problem, and even the Yangtze River area was solved with plastic small bow sheds.Don't even think about plastic now, even rubber.However, the place used for raising seedlings is small, and some earthen sheds can be used to solve the problem. In this way, the time of raising seedlings will be advanced by one month, and the time for cotton to produce cotton wool will also be delayed by one month, which will have an immeasurable effect on the yield.Li Xian's Huangzhuang in Chang'an accepted Wang Hua's suggestion.

Another point is that most of the vast area from Atami to Aral Sea is under the rule of Tuqishi, but there are also many places that Tuqishi dismisses and discards.With the current price of cotton, this is not a land of tens of thousands of mu, but a land of more than 100 million to more than 200 million square kilometers, which is a vast land, and the economic effect produced is appalling.

However, this is temporary. After a few years of mass planting, falling prices, and transportation cost constraints, the benefits will drop sharply. But right now, there are almost huge profits. How many people are not tempted?
Another point is why the nomads are difficult to manage, because they live as nomads and live in no fixed place. Once they settle down, they still get off the horseback. After decades, will they still be the troublesome horse people?
The most important point is to provide them with planting technology, which is enough to make Uzhile tempted. But once the benefits of this technology are produced, for these unowned lands, major disputes will arise because of this benefit. It is possible that Western Turks, East Turkic, Ge Luolu, and Dubo were involved together.

This is a large-scale remake of Two Peaches Killing Three Soldiers.In the end, everyone weakened, and the role of the Tang Dynasty became apparent.

Guo Yuanzhen's eyes became brighter the more he listened, and Wu Zhile couldn't be tempted. Now, the income per mu of land is ten guan, and the cost is also five guan. Northwest is absolutely not a problem, then the income will be tens of millions or hundreds of millions of dollars.How much does Datang earn in a year?

Of course, the account is not calculated in this way. Slowly cultivated, there are seeds, and I don’t know how many years later, it will produce hundreds of thousands of land, and the price has already dropped by then.

But even one percent is enough to drive Wu Zhile crazy.

Coupled with the pincer attack from inside and outside, Wu Zhile saw the danger, and it happened that this opportunity to step down came, so it was difficult to make peace.

He slapped Wang Hua hard on the shoulder and said, "The overall situation is settled."

Then he looked at Yunxiu, and it was the first time he saw her take off the curtain. Although his appearance was different from that of the Central Plains people, he had been in the Western Regions for many years, so he was not surprised, but he was also amazed at the coldness of this female Taoist priest. Yan.He said: "I also want to thank Taoist Master Yunxiu for the good news."

"Guo Dudu, needless to say, the search for the whereabouts of the Blood Camp this time is something I promised the King Xiang to do. As for the latter, it is for someone to appreciate."

"I understand, I understand," Guo Yuanzhen chuckled. He had heard a little about Wang Hua's deeds. Apart from the messy relationship with the princess, he basically belonged to the kind of person who didn't understand style. Although this girl was amazingly beautiful, It may not make Wang Hua tempted.

This is another misunderstanding between Guo Yuanzhen and the world. Wang Hua is not Liu Xiahui. He has a little restraint ability, but Guan Jian's concept is that there is love first and then desire. He thought, until now Wang Hua still didn't dare to make a statement, how dare he get close to her?

Wang Hua just smiled wryly, is it you making a deal with me, or do you want me to change my attitude towards you?Or both?Or are you acting?
Yunxiu put on the silk socks as if no one was around, and after a long-distance journey, she also wanted to take a rest.

But when she walked towards the crowd, she whispered in Wang Hua's ear: "Wang Yingdu, it seems that in this battle to seize the palace, you seem to be full of hostility towards King Xiang? I don't know what you can do to Princess Jiu disposal?"

After finishing speaking, she looked at Xiao Yuzhen who was standing in front with a concerned face, her face was full of pity.

However, Wang Hua's face changed involuntarily after hearing this sentence.
