I have a backstage in Datang

He had no intention of killing Gu Tianya at all...

He laughed out loud, revealing all his thoughts, it turned out that he had been waiting, he had obviously been waiting for a long time...

What are you waiting for?

Waiting for Gu Tianya to be invited by Yili.

As expected of a generation of heroes, his acting is just like the real thing.

But what is even more amazing is that Gu Tianya seems to have known that he was pretending.

Obviously the two have never met, but it seems that they have reached a tacit understanding in secret.One side is preparing to betray the country and seek financing, while the other side is offering benefits!

They hit it off immediately, and there was not even a bargaining scene.

……

The night passed quickly, and few people knew that Gu Tianya had been here, let alone what he had agreed with Yuan Gai Suwen.

But the agreement has been reached in secret, and soon there will be a storm.

Three days later, Youzhou City.

This is an incomparably luxurious carriage, Zhou Gong guards hundreds of elite knights, judging from the clothes and costumes on his body, it is actually the group of Tubo people not long ago.

It turned out that this carriage was the one owned by Lu Dongzan.

However, Lu Dongzan was not the only one sitting in the carriage.

Surprisingly, there is also Gu Tianya.

It was early morning at this time, and the fish belly was slightly exposed in the east. The carriage drove slowly on the official road, and soon arrived at the gate of Youzhou City.

However, Lu Dongzan was sitting cross-legged in the car. This Tubo Prime Minister seemed to have not slept all night. His face seemed to be bitter, and he seemed to be showing some kind of relief. Suddenly, he stretched out his hand and pushed forward gently.

His tone was helpless, but respectful in his helplessness, he asked in a low voice: "Lord Gu, have you slept well? Youzhou City has arrived, and you should get out of the car according to the agreement."

"Really?" There was a long sound in the carriage, as if a little surprised, he said, "I got home so soon? I'm going to sleep for a while."

While speaking, Gu Tianya turned over and stood up.

He stretched his waist for a long time, then lazily raised his head and yawned, then said with a smile: "As expected of the Tubo Prime Minister's carriage, there was no bump in the road, so I slept very comfortably this time." Ah, I haven't had such a comfortable sleep in a long time."

When he said this, he suddenly cupped his hands towards Lu Dongzan, and said with a smile: "So I must thank you, thank you, Prime Minister Lu, for giving me a ride. This time, your carriage will drive on your behalf, let me take care of you Someone spared the hard work of traveling all the way... Hahaha, the world says you Tubo people are unruly, but I feel that you are very easy to get along with. For example, when I asked you to take a ride, Lu Da connected a word of disapproval Didn't say anything."

Lu Dongzan couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said with embarrassment: "Lord Gu, why bother to make fun of me? Do I dare to object when you make a request? If I dared to show any objection, I'm afraid I would have been slapped by your sister long ago." died."

"No way!"

Gu Tianya waved his hands quickly, and said righteously: "My sister is gentle and sweet, she will never slap you to death."

Lu Dongzan took a deep breath, and said with a forced smile, "Maybe, but Lu doesn't dare to bet."

Gu Tianya laughed, pointed at him and said: "You, you, you are indeed the same as Yuan Gai Suwen, cruel, cunning, greedy, but cautious. To put it bluntly, I am afraid of death to the extreme..."

These words seemed to be mocking, but Lu Dongzan nodded happily, and said: "Lord Gu is right, people like us are really afraid of death. As for why we are afraid of death, the reason is actually very simple!"

The person paused for a while while speaking, then his tone became serious, and he said again in a deep voice: "One can only do things if one is alive. If a person dies, everything will cease."

Gu Tianya nodded slowly, seeming to appreciate his mentality, and said with a smile: "These words are reasonable, people can only do things when they are alive. Then, Your Excellency Lu Dongzan, what are you going to do next?"

This question is very meaningful.

And Lu Dongzan's answer is also intriguing.

I saw this person took a light breath, his expression seemed to reveal unwillingness and helplessness, after hesitating for a while, it finally turned into a wry smile, and said in a desolate voice: "What else can I do? Of course it is to follow the trend. If people don't know how to follow the trend The general trend will inevitably be crushed by the torrent, and the nation will also die if it fails to keep up with the general trend... So I will not make any stupid choices. As the Prime Minister of Tubo, I must be responsible for the people. I want Lead them and keep up with the general trend of the times."

He stopped here for a while, looked out through the car window, sighed softly and said: "Lord Gu's land of dark clouds will be the general trend of the world in the future."

Gu Tianya laughed, stood up abruptly from the carriage, and said leisurely: "This place is farewell, and the lone car travels thousands of miles. The Tubo Plateau is thousands of miles away from Youzhou, so Gu can't send each other all the way. Only A word of blessing, to the friends who are about to go away, Lu Dong praised the Prime Minister, I wish your wish come true... Hahahaha, let's just say goodbye."

He stretched out his hand to lift the curtain of the car, smiled warmly at the Tubo warrior driving the car, and said, "Stop the car, I'm getting off."

The warrior driving the chariot quickly pulled the reins and carefully parked the chariot on the side of the road.

Gu Tianya laughed again, and jumped out of the carriage, then he waved at Lu Dongzan, bid farewell again with deep meaning, and said leisurely: "If Prime Minister Lu Dongzan has nothing to do, why don't you spend more time?" Pay attention to Liaodong, if possible, it is best to persuade Songtsan Gampo to pay attention to it, so that he will not be overconfident and make a decision that is not conducive to Tubo."

Lu Dongzan in the car nodded solemnly, and suddenly bowed his hands in an extremely serious salute, and agreed solemnly: "Lord Gu, you can rest assured, someone Lu will definitely pay attention to Liaodong..."

He paused slightly while speaking, and then said: "I will also persuade Songtsan Gampo to pay attention to Liaodong."

Gu Tianya laughed again, this time he didn't talk to him again, but turned around and strode towards Youzhou City not far away.

Three knights rushed out of the convoy, Ma Sanbao, Yan Jiu, and Han Si. The three men got off their horses and took the reins, and quickly followed Gu Tianya to the city gate.

As for Gu Chang'e, she floated down from the top of the carriage at this time, the girl looked at Lu Dongzan with a smile on her face, and said her farewell words leisurely, "Major Minister of Tubo, let's just leave now." .Thank you for the carriage, for giving my brother a ride."

Lu Dongzan hurriedly clasped his hands in salute, and said, "It is Lu Dongzan's lifelong honor that Lord Gu can ride in my carriage. It is Lu Dongzan's lifelong honor that Fairy Gu can sit on the roof of the carriage."

What she said was full of flattery, but unfortunately Gu Chang'e felt bored, so she jumped lightly and floated away into the distance.

Lu Dongzan breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't dare to set off immediately, but waited for a long time at the spot, until the figures of Gu Tianya and others entered Youzhou City, he turned his head and whispered to the knight driving the chariot: "Let's go, we can finally leave. "

The knight driving the carriage had obviously been waiting for this sentence a long time ago. After hearing the words, he hurriedly twitched his whip to drive the carriage. The horse neighed and the wheels rolled forward.

However, Lu Dongzan did not enter the carriage, but stood outside the carriage and looked towards Youzhou City.

Suddenly he breathed out a long breath, and said inexplicably: "The Land of Youyun will become the general trend of the world in the future. Yuan Gai Suwen has bowed his head, and Goguryeo will definitely be annexed by Youzhou. When this wind is raging, every You must be cautious in every decision. Lu Dongzan, Lu Dongzan, I hope you can successfully persuade the lord to let go of his desires and let him recognize the reality of the world, otherwise, Tubo is in danger..."

At this time, a soldier came over on horseback, and it was his direct line guard. He asked cautiously: "Master, will Goguryeo be annexed by Youzhou? It is a powerful country in Liaodong, with three thousand miles of fertile fields and 59 large cities. , with a population of more than 1000 million, such a powerful country, will it really be annexed by Youzhou?"

Lu Dongzan turned his head to look at the guard, nodded slowly and said, "Yes!"

The answer was only one word, and he didn't say any extra words.

Then he turned around and entered the carriage, and then the next answer came out again, and he said in an extremely solemn tone: "When Gu Tianya set his sights on Liaodong, Goguryeo had already doomed its end, so that Yuan Gaisu Wen made a decision at the first moment, he must give up his national steadfastness and bow his head to others."

"What if he doesn't bow his head?" the guard couldn't help asking.

Lu Dongzan's tone was more serious, as if with deep sympathy, and said: "If he doesn't bow his head, then he will die. But Yuan Gai Suwen knows that he can't die, he can only protect the Goguryeo people by living... ..."

The guard was slightly stunned, and said in astonishment: "He bowed his head to Gu Tianya, which is obviously an act of betrayal of the nation, why would you say that he is protecting the Goguryeo people?"

Lu Dongzan's tone became more serious, and he said slowly: "Because Goguryeo is destined to be destroyed, but Goguryeo people will not be destroyed. After Goguryeo is annexed, all Goguryeo people will become Youzhou citizens. Although they will become Youzhou The people of the state, but they are a subjugated clan after all... Looking at the subjugated clans in the past and present, most of the common people's lives are miserable, and Yuan Gai Suwen encountered the future scene, so he made an early decision. "

The guard seemed to understand a little bit, and said softly: "He is trying to gain a position in Gu's power."

Lu Dong praised: "That's right, that's exactly the case. He bowed his head to Gu Tianya at this moment, and he belongs to the contributor who changed the camp in time. Then when Goguryeo is destroyed in the future, his dedication will definitely be counted as a meritorious deed." .After having meritorious service, he is a minister under Gu's command. With his status as a minister, he can take care of the Goguryeo people."

He paused while talking, and then said with emotion: "Those who are not scheming are not suitable to be a superior person. Those who don't know how to hide ninja, their happiness and anger will flow on the surface. But these two points alone are not enough to become a leader." The hero..."

He paused again while speaking, and slowly said again: "Thus, if you look at the ruthless people of all dynasties, you will find that they all have one thing in common. What is it, is knowing how to make the most difficult choices."

Then, as if coming to a conclusion, he said in a deep voice, "Yuan Gai Suwen's choice is the best choice for Goguryeo. If he doesn't do this, the Goguryeo people will have no future."

The guard's tone became respectful, and he said, "This man seems to have betrayed his own nation, but his actions turned out to be well-intentioned."

Lu Dongzan's tone was inexplicable, and suddenly he seemed to be muttering to himself: "He has a good intention. Doesn't the truth mean that he doesn't have a good intention? Do you know that Gu Tianya has been in my car for the past three days? I didn't say anything, but I respectfully waited on my side, just like serving my old monarch. My behavior is exactly the same as Yuan Gai Suwen's."

The guard is a smart man, he was startled when he heard this, and said with a horrified face: "What do you mean by this, is that the end of our Tubo will be the same as that of Goguryeo? That's why you are like Yuan Gai Suwen, Also made a gesture of serving Gu Tianya?"

It's a pity that after this question was asked, there was no answer from Lu Dongzan in the carriage. The guard's face was pale and bloodless, and his body on horseback was visibly trembling.

After a long time, Lu Dongzan's voice was heard again, and he said slowly: "The Land of Nether Clouds will become the great trend of the world in the future."

This is the third time he has said it.

After he finished speaking, there seemed to be a low sigh, his tone obviously shocking, showing that his heart was extremely restless.

I just heard him muttering: "He wants to mint new coins, Gu Tianya actually wants to mint new coins, when his new coins come out, how many countries in the whole world can resist? All of us are destined to be firmly tied died……"

……

……

"What did you say, you want to mint new coins!"

In Youzhou City, inside the Gu family's house, Li Shimin stared at Gu Tianya with a shocked expression on his face.

After the emperor asked this sentence, he obviously couldn't calm down the turmoil in his heart, so he asked again, and said in a very serious tone: "Please explain clearly, why do you want to mint new coins? Don't the copper coins of the Tang Dynasty deserve to be used?" ? Is your Youzhou going to separate from Datang now?"

After asking this sentence, his mood was still fluctuating, and suddenly he walked up to Gu Tianya, then turned his head to look at Li Jiancheng who was next to him, and said anxiously: "Brother, did you hear that this brat wants to mint new coins?" .”

Li Jiancheng next to him also looked very cautious. Hearing this, he nodded solemnly and said: "I heard it very clearly. Brother-in-law Gu wants to mint new coins. This is indeed a shocking event. But my second child, can you Calm down? The majestic Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, look at your current appearance. Since my brother-in-law proposed the theory of minting coins, he will definitely explain it clearly to us, why are you so impatient, can't you just listen to his explanation honestly?"

As expected of the elder brother of the royal family, everything seems to be calm and calm. On the contrary, Li Shimin is a little impatient, and has not yet achieved the calmness that an emperor should have.

Fortunately, Gu Tianya didn't make him impatient for too long, the first explanation he spoke made Li Shimin's heart skip a beat.

"Second brother, believe it or not, I want to mint coins not for my own selfishness."

"If you are willing to support me in minting new coins, and even let Datang mint coins with me, then our Han nation will surely stand on top of the world."

"After the implementation of our new currency, it will bind the whole world."

"At that time, no one can stop our pace..."

"All the wealth in the world is in the palm of your hand. All the races in the world work together. The wealth they work hard to produce will become wealth that we can take at will..."

"Second brother, believe it or not, this will make our Han country dominate the world forever."

"Such a country, I call it an empire!"

As Gu Tianya said each sentence, the atmosphere in the room obviously became solemn, listening to Li Shimin's panting gradually became thicker, and even Li Jiancheng's expression was dignified.

Minting a brand new currency is no small task.

Chapter 356 [State affairs are important, family is also important]

I have a backstage in Datang Chapter 356 of the main text volume [National affairs are important, family is also important] "Empire?"

"Do you mean that Datang will become an empire?"

After a long time passed, Li Shimin finally opened his mouth slowly. The emperor's expression was extremely solemn, clearly revealing a kind of nervousness.

He stared straight at Gu Tianya, afraid of missing any word, said in a deep voice: "The matter of minting coins is no small matter. So at this moment, I am not your second brother, and you are not my brother-in-law of Li Shimin. In terms of status, I am the Emperor of Tang Dynasty and you are Lord Youyun."

He paused while talking, and then said again: "Maybe you understand what I said?"

Even the address was changed, and he directly called himself Zhen.

For Li Shimin and Gu Tianya, this is a rare situation.

This means that their next conversation is not as a family member, but as the emperor of Tang Dynasty and the lord of Youzhou.

Once the identity is public to public, it means that the discussion is no longer a private matter.

What is it? It is a national policy!

Gu Tianya is so shrewd, how can he fail to understand Li Shimin's gesture?But his face was still not serious, but he nodded with a relaxed face, and replied with a smile: "Second brother, don't worry, I know this matter better than anyone else. Whether it is for public or private, I can guarantee everyone's benefit .”

"What I care about is not only the benefits."

Li Shimin opened his mouth suddenly, his tone became more serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Gu Tianya, I want you to tell me again now, can you guarantee that there is no exaggeration in what you said just now?"

"You just said that we Han Chinese will dominate the world forever..."

"You just said that we will bind the whole world..."

After asking three times in a row, the emperor's expression became extremely solemn, and then he finally asked the question he was most concerned about, and said almost word for word: "You said just now that the Tang Dynasty will become an empire."

Gu Tianya smiled with a warm spring breeze.

Li Shimin annoyed him the most, so he stared at him angrily and said, "Don't put on a show, don't pretend to be leisurely, there are only three of us brothers in the room, who are you going to show that you have something in your heart? If you don’t believe that the second brother slaps you, he will make you howl like ghosts and wolves..."

The name changed back unconsciously, which obviously had another deep meaning.

Li Shimin seemed to be scolding Gu Tianya, but in fact he was expressing his thoughts.The implication is self-explanatory, although minting coins is a national policy, but the Li family and the Gu family still have to talk about their family relationship.

Otherwise, how could the Li royal family allow others to mint coins?

It should be noted that currency is the foundation of a country. If private individuals dare to mint currency, it is definitely a more serious matter than rebellion.

……

"Big Brother, Second Brother, I know your prudence, and I appreciate you caring about family affection. Coin minting is the most untouchable sensitive point in a country. If anyone in Tang Dynasty dares to mention this matter, I'm afraid it will immediately become a The thorn in the side of the Li family."

However, when I proposed to mint coins, the first thing you showed was caution. I, Gu Tianya, am not a fool, and I know what your caution means.This means that you are not hostile. "

"The reason why you are showing prudence and nervousness is that you are only worried about whether my minting new coins will cause national turmoil."

"Well, I will give you a solemn answer now. As long as you agree with me to mint new coins, I promise not to harm the people of Tang Dynasty. I can even make another guarantee, that is, the new coins will make people's lives better and better .”
