A scholar of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

"Oh." Gu Qing looked confused again, "I don't have a good sense of direction recently, kid."

"The old man's hands and feet are not smooth recently." Li Ji said, "You can't control your legs, and sometimes the old man can't control your hands too."

"Boy, I understand." Gu Qing said with a sad face, "Boy, just follow the general."

All the way into Chang'an, there are many people standing on both sides of the road watching this victorious army come back. At this time, it would be nice to welcome some flowers and drums, Gu Qing thought to himself, for example, hanging a banner at the gate of the city , For example, to welcome the triumphant return of the army. Staring like this always makes people feel uncomfortable, as if they are looking at a group of rare animals?Or a group of prisoners who are about to go to the execution ground?

A group of people walked through Zhuque Street and came to the gate of the palace. The soldiers here were already ready and lined up to welcome them.

Li Ji walked in the forefront, and Wang Qin walked beside Li Ji, all the way into the Tai Chi Palace, and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty also stood together in the Tai Chi Palace.

Chapter 389 Goguryeo Affairs

Entering the Taiji Palace, Gu Qing followed all the way to the end, keeping a low profile and didn't have much expectation for this kind of receiving merit. If he really wanted to receive merit, Gu Qing hoped that Li Er could block him for a while.

Cen Wenwen and Li Ji reported on the war in Goguryeo. Li Er didn't say anything about Yuan Gai Suwen who was captured alive. He just said that he was sent to Dali Temple. A Goguryeo general hasn't reached the point where Li Er must meet. What's more, it was a complete failure.

The monarch and his ministers were talking to each other, but Gu Qing didn't listen at all, his eyes wandered above the court, and he saw Niu Jinda and Cheng Yaojin smiling and staring at him, what are these two guys doing staring at him like this?Weird.

Cen Benben had the most right to speak. People above the court listened to Cen Benben's thoughts on Goguryeo, how to govern Goguryeo, and told about the Japanese attack on Goguryeo. There was a lot of discussion above, and no one thought that the Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo would involve a small Wa country.

Some people in the court criticized the behavior of the Wa Kingdom, and they all hoped that His Majesty would condemn the Wa Kingdom's behavior of Goguryeo's fall into the stone. Gu Qing heard that these guys were really making a fuss.

Li Er looked at Su Ding's equation and stood silently. Afterwards, Gu Qing, this guy sneaked and said in a low voice, "Gu Qing, do you have something to say?"

"No." Gu Qing said immediately without thinking.

"Cough, cough, cough..." Cheng Yaojin choked on Gu Qing's words, is he so disrespectful to His Majesty?

Li Er was also not swallowed by Gu Qing, and all the words he wanted to say were swallowed by his throat.

Standing in front of him, Li Tai quietly gave Gu Qing a look.

Li Er didn't want to argue with this guy, "Since Wa is like this..."

Upon receiving Li Tai's gaze, Gu Qing hurriedly said, "I have it again!"

"..."

"Cough cough cough..." Now it was Niu Jinda's turn to cough.

Li Er was interrupted by Gu Qing in the middle of his speech, and looked at the kid with a bad face, "Say!"

"That's what the minister said." Gu Qing said, "Actually, the Japanese invasion of Goguryeo is a non-existent one, and it's the kind that can't be beat. At the time, there was a civil strife in Goguryeo, and the rebellious minister Yuangai Suwen was conquering Silla. After that, the Wa kingdom will come to invade.”

Listening to Gu Qing's words, another official in the court said, "Gu Qing, the Silla that Yuangai Suwen conquered, then Silla is the boundary of Goguryeo."

"You can't talk like that." Gu Qing explained, "Whether the land of Silla belongs to Goguryeo, Yuan Gai Suwen doesn't count, but the Goguryeo king, right?"

Seeing that the other party did not refute, Gu Qing said again, "It's like the old Wang next door said that your wife is his."

"..."

Seeing the other party turning blue, Gu Qing waved his hand again, "Don't get me wrong, I'm just making an analogy, whether your wife is yours or you have the final say, right? So this Silla was defeated by Yuan Gai Su Wen, However, whether this piece of land belongs to Goguryeo or not is still up to the King of Goguryeo. Besides, what the Wa Kingdom did was to invade Silla. Whether this incident offends Goguryeo or not, Datang can completely turn a blind eye and turn a blind eye. You can speak for whoever you want, from His Majesty's point of view..."

Gu Qing made an edit to Li Eryi and said: "Whether the actions of the Wa Kingdom are considered wrong or not depends on your Majesty. After all, both the Wa Kingdom and Goguryeo are vassal states of the Tang Dynasty. The masters of Goguryeo and Wa are both Tang Dynasty."

Li Er's face was dark, and he beat the dog to see its owner. This is indeed the reason, but what he said... Looking at the leisurely Cheng Yaojin standing aside, what he said sounds like Cheng Yaojin, could it be true? As Xuanling worried, Gu Qing has already been spoiled by Cheng Yaojin, an old man.

"Your Majesty?" Gu Qing looked at Li Er who was worried.

"Cough cough." After coughing twice, Li Er withdrew his eyes and returned to his thoughts, then looked at Fang Xuanling again, "President Fang, what do you mean?"

"I think." Fang Xuanling cupped his hands and said, "I think that whether the actions of the Wa Kingdom count as an invasion of Goguryeo really depends on what the King of Goguryeo said. Silla and Baekje also paid tribute to the Central Plains in the early years, but this tribute was long before the violence. The chaos in the Central Plains of the Sui Dynasty ended at the beginning, and the Tang Dynasty has not paid tribute since it established itself in the Central Plains, and His Majesty has not recognized the status of Silla and Baekje. Therefore, as Gu Qing said, whether the actions of the Wa Kingdom are considered an invasion of Goguryeo depends on Let's see if King Goguryeo wants to pursue this matter."

A teacher is a teacher after all. Fang Xuanling's impartial words were immediately nodded in conviction. Gu Qing also felt that he wished that Wa and Goguryeo would fight sooner. Yuangai Suwen defeated Silla and the king of Goguryeo won one. It's cheap. If the boy King Goguryeo wants to regain Silla, he must win the hearts of the people. That is to say, in the eyes of King Goguryeo, the Wa Kingdom has invaded Goguryeo, and it is right to ask the Wa Kingdom to collect debts.

But this reason cannot be initiated by Datang. Datang must stand on the side of absolute correctness and justice. If you want to collect debts from you, King Goguryeo, don’t drag Datang.

Hearing this, Li Er also understood the whole story of the matter. Looking at Cen Wenwen's unmoved expression, he understood Fang Xuanling's implication at once. It was clearly written in the report that came, and I discussed with Fang Xuanling that King Goguryeo wanted to collect debts.

The so-called three requests and four pushes mean that Datang cannot take the initiative in this matter, but the King of Goguryeo should take the initiative.

Cen Wenwen thought about what Gu Qing said before asking the Wa Kingdom to pay Goguryeo a sky-high price of compensation, but he never said anything. If Datang took the initiative to ask the Wa Kingdom to pay Goguryeo, it would be suspected of robbery. Just as Fang Xuanling said, this Datang must stand on the absolutely right side, and let Goguryeo and Wa Kingdom do the wrong thing. Datang cannot be a bandit, otherwise future generations will have ideas. The history of Datang must be on the side of justice. (Anti-Harmony) Conspiracy Li Er privately quarrels with important ministers who can be trusted by the DPRK and China.

In order to show a correct appearance in the Tang Dynasty, Li Er and Fang Xuanling had already made preparations in private for the matter of Wa and Goguryeo a few days ago. This is the politics of a strong country against a weak country. Li Er, the wolf has already put on sheep's clothing.

The next thing is to offer rewards, Gu Qing was confused, he seemed to be the magistrate of the county, Shang Shuling is still Shang Shuling, just an added Chao Yilang.

Li Ji became a general of the Fuguo, and Hou Junji was named Prince Shaobao.

Su Dingfang was named General Zhongwu, a false title of honor.

Cheng Chumo was named Habayashi Wei Zhonglang General.

Li Tai and Li Ke only gave false titles.

On the contrary, Shangguanyi became the Minister of Zhongshu

Chapter 390 Lingyan Pavilion

This Li Er is too stingy, Gu Qing is not happy in his heart, either he will give a few compliments or give him a false title. After the court meeting in Taiji Palace, Gu Qing walked at the end of the crowd, and he was very unhappy.

"You said your father is too embarrassing." Gu Qing walked beside Li Tai, "Tell me, we are fighting to death in Goguryeo, and your father will give you some false titles and some silver cakes." It’s so real, it’s really good if I don’t have some golden clams.”

Cheng Yaojin glanced at Gu Qing and said in a low voice, "Are you still not satisfied? You are already a minister, what's the matter? You want to be a prince at this age?"

"It's not..." Gu Qing nodded thoughtfully, "It's not impossible!"

"Brat!" Niu Jinda yelled, "I went to Goguryeo for a trip, my tail is up to the sky, be careful to be shot to death."

Li Tai sighed, "Gu Qing, in fact, the meaning of the emperor is very clear. I am afraid that your tails will stick to the sky. It is very polite not to suppress you."

"What do you mean?!" Looking at Li Tai, Gu Qing was puzzled.

All the way out of the palace gate, Wang Qin came in a hurry, "Mr. Gu, Your Majesty has summoned you."

Stopping, Gu Qing stopped Wang Qin's shoulder with a smile, "Does Your Majesty want to reward me extra, although my credit is not high, but it is hard work, right?"

"The county magistrate is here." Wang Qin said with a smile,

Follow Wang Qin all the way to the Yanqing Hall, outside the hall, Li Er is drinking wine with several envoys from the Western Regions, wondering why the envoys from the Western Regions have come, watching Li Er say a few words to the envoys from the Western Regions When he came out, Li Er didn't have a smile on his face, "Gu Qing, you came with me."

"Yes."

Follow Li Er all the way to a quiet place in the palace, here is a garden with many flowers.

"Gu Qing, I want to build a Lingyan Pavilion." Li Er said, "I have discussed with your teacher many times, whether you should add yours or not."
