Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1118 The Best of Both Worlds, Difficult!

There was a smile on the corner of Guo Ye's mouth, but in the eyes of His Majesty Li Er, this was a face that had succeeded in a trick.

Calm down, calm down~ The overall situation is the most important thing, don't care about it like a child!

His Majesty Li Er took two deep breaths, and forcefully suppressed the bad breath in his heart.

Just act as if you don’t know anything, and don’t think about anything.

In an instant, he covered his burning eyes, and pretended to be calm and said: "Since Guo Qing already knew about this matter, I will save you a lot of talking. This Fusang rogue group visited the Central Plains, since the former Sui Kaihuang It happened in the past years. When Yang Guang was in power, the people of Fusang saw his great feats, and they often crossed the sea to the Central Plains in the name of paying homage to the state of heaven and meeting the emperor of Sui. Hehe, these Fusang people are quite scheming , Knowing that watching people order menus has indeed stolen a lot of benefits from the Central Plains."

Yang Guang is so overjoyed?

Guo Ye absolutely agrees with this point, but he also secretly thought, Your Majesty Li Er, don't you also like to slap your face swollen to make you fat, and you love face to the extreme?You two are right and wrong, don't give in.

Of course, he didn't dare to let go of these words. If His Majesty Li Er knew that he was comparing him with Yang Guang, wouldn't he swallow him alive?

Huh?Isn't that right?

Guo Ye carefully pondered what His Majesty Li Er said. Although this master likes to slap his face to look fat and listen to the flattery of neighboring countries to save face, he doesn't seem to be interested in the little devils from Fusang Island.

From this point of view, His Majesty Li Er is disgusted with these little devils, and he doesn't want to slap their faces swollen and pretend to be fat, pretending to be generous to gain face.

If that's the case, then it's easy to handle, secretly happy, it's just what I want!

However, he still confirmed it: "Your Majesty, you mean to let these Fusang wanderers go back wherever they came from? Tell them, Tang Dynasty doesn't welcome them?"

His Majesty Li Er shook his head and said: "If it's really that simple, do I still need to let Guo Qing do it?"

The subtext is that if this job is so easy, why would I accommodate you bastard and give you a chance to speak up like a lion?

Guo Ye was slightly taken aback, and muttered to himself, could it be that I guessed wrong?

His Majesty Li Er sighed softly, as if reminding Guo Ye, he said to himself: "It's still a cliché. Now our Tang treasury is not full, and we still need to lighten taxes and labor, and recuperate. Now the Tubo kingdom is torn apart. , there is still no affiliation, the imperial court still has to focus on the Western Regions, Xue Yantuo, Eastern Turks, Rouran, still can't get rid of it. Fortunately, the British Duke led [-] elites of the Tang Dynasty, using the lightning tactics proposed by Guo Qing , fighting fiercely with the countries of the Western Regions with wolf ambitions. And because of the civil war between the north and the south in Tianzhu Kingdom, Duke Wei led his troops into the two kingdoms of Annan and Jiaozhi. Therefore, it is not appropriate for my Tang Dynasty to have any further grievances with its overseas neighbors. This Fusang country—”

His Majesty Li Er paused for a moment, and then said: "Goguryeo Kingdom, Fusang Kingdom, and Fuyu Kingdom have always lived in peace with the Tang Dynasty. Fuyu Kingdom, in particular, has been at war with Fusang Kingdom for decades. It is my optimism. It must not be because of the issue of handling the Fusang pilgrimage group that these three small overseas countries are allies and line up."

Fuyu country...

Guo Ye couldn't help but think of the king of Fuyu Kingdom, Li Jing's best friend, the bearded man, and Li Jing's confidante, the red-haired girl Zhang Chuchen. It seems that these two couples have led Fuyu Kingdom to fight against the little devils of Fusang Kingdom, and the wars have indeed continued. ah.

As for their daughter, Li Jing's adopted daughter Yu Nuannuan, that girl doesn't know what's going on now, how does it feel to be the princess of Fuyu Kingdom?

His Majesty Li Er saw that Guo Ye was silent and didn't know what was going on in his mind, so he urged him to ask: "Guo Qing, can you understand what I mean by what I said, and the result I really want?"

Uh... Guo Ye slowly woke up from his trance, and nodded slightly to show that he understood more or less.

The Fusang Kingdom of Fusang Ronin Little Devil;

Koguryo country of Koryo sticks;

Emigrated to Buyeo, a country dominated by Han people in the Ryukyu area overseas.

The natural geographical locations of these three countries, if for some purpose, can indeed be connected in a line, it is simply a barrier for the Tang Dynasty in the eastern sea area.

Guo Ye could understand what His Majesty Li Er meant, and the implication was that he did not welcome these Fusang people to come to the Central Plains to steal their skills to strengthen himself, but he could make these Fusang devils hate him because he refused to drive them away.

That is to say, not only is it impossible for them to use the name of worshiping the Heavenly Dynasty to steal the military, forging, and culture of the Tang Dynasty, but also to find a way to drive them away, and let these little devils go willingly.

This is really a bit difficult, no wonder His Majesty Li Er is willing to spend such a large amount of money to let himself solve this matter.

It's no wonder that no one in the court can solve this matter. In fact, Guo Ye didn't dare to guarantee that he could solve this matter perfectly.

At this time, he was no longer as swearing as he was before, but replied with some hesitation: "Your Majesty, let me give it a try first?"

"wrong!"

His Majesty Li Er shook his head stubbornly, and said decisively: "I don't want you to try, I want you to succeed immediately, and you must solve this matter flawlessly, so that this Fusang ronin group will leave my Tang Dynasty willingly." I like Wanbang to congratulate me, but I definitely don't welcome the rats who try to come to my Tang Dynasty to steal skills."

Nima's!

Guo Ye was really speechless. If he had known earlier, he would not have agreed to His Majesty Li Er so easily.

Involuntarily, he scolded Fusang kid's eighteenth generation ancestors in his heart again. You bastards all say that it is easy to invite God but it is difficult to send God away, but our Tang Dynasty didn't invite you, why are you so shameless? How about coming here?Sure enough, the little devil, an inferior nation who is used to bowing to the strong and learning from the strong, is as thick-skinned as ever.

Send God off?I'm going to send the plague god off!

Easier said than done?

Thinking about it makes my scalp numb, and the lawsuits in my head are like a thousand flies hovering around my ears, buzzing, and I am so upset.

"Of course, if they travel all the way, they can't let them go in vain, can they?"

His Majesty Li Er suddenly said: "If it is not possible, let the Ministry of Households allocate some silk tea or something as a gift and let them take it away. As long as they leave willingly, leave early and don't stay in the Central Plains to steal skills , I would rather spend some money."

day……

Guo Ye curled his lips and thought, the little devils are notoriously greedy, how can a few teas and silks satisfy them?But now, it is impossible to fight. Fighting the Fusang country will inevitably make the other two countries alert and guard against Datang's ambition to expand overseas.His Majesty Li Er also said that it is now a two-front battle, and it is not appropriate to open another front.

At this moment, an idea suddenly flashed in Guo Ye's mind, and his blocked mind suddenly became clear.

For a moment, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and he let out a smirk, thinking, yes, aren't they going to steal our Tang's things?Why don't we take all the things that our Tang Dynasty doesn't want and give them to the little devils, and let them pick them up as treasures!

"What is Guo Qing laughing at?"

Apparently His Majesty Li Er had noticed Guo Ye's snickering, and asked curiously, "Did Guo Qing think of a way to get the best of both worlds?"

Guo Ye murmured, cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will leave this matter to the minister, and you will hear the good news later! It is not too late, the minister will return to the mansion first, and we will make some arrangements before we talk about it. "

"Okay, I will listen to your good news in the palace!"

Hearing Guo Ye's reassurance, His Majesty Li Er was relieved a little, and his mood improved a lot. He thought to himself that he really didn't find the wrong person.

Then he waved his hand and said: "It's not too late, you go out of the palace on your own, I'm waiting for your good news!"

"Sir, retire!"

light chirp~~

Guo Ye turned back quickly, stretched out his hands and pushed open the gate of Wangbei Pavilion.

"Ouch!"

Accidentally, Eunuch Shun, who was lying on the crack of the door and peeking at him, had no time to step back, his forehead was hit hard, and his eyes were instantly blackened... It's unlucky and sad.

Chapter 1119

After Guo Ye left the palace, he had just returned to the Pingyang County Government House in Taipingfang, when His Majesty Li Er sent someone to come to the Guo House to deliver a reward.
