Although there was no difference from usual, Li Er was still drowsy.
But at least he persevered through listening this time.
For Li Er, this is really a challenge.
A challenge to fight against sleepiness.
the next few days.
The news that Li Er agreed to Xuanzang's westward journey swept the Tang Dynasty and caused quite a stir.
Buddhism is now widely spread and won the hearts of the people.
Many people paid close attention to Xuanzang's journey to the west.
Knowing that Li Er strongly supported this time, he not only borne all the expenses, but also sent special personnel to protect Xuanzang.
The common people praised Li Er one after another for his open-mindedness and open-mindedness.
"Your Majesty has always vigorously promoted Taoism, but this time Master Xuanzang went west, and His Majesty supported him so much. He really deserves to be the Ming Emperor and Holy Lord of the Tang Dynasty."
"Yeah, I thought His Majesty would do everything possible to suppress Buddhism, but I didn't expect to be so benevolent and righteous. It is a blessing to be able to live under such an emperor's rule."
"With His Majesty's support, Master Xuanzang will definitely return successfully. I hope he can retrieve the scriptures, bless the Great Tang, and bless the people."
Unknowingly, Xuanzang's westward journey was pushed to the forefront, and Li Er gained another wave of prestige because of this.
When the news reached the palace, Li Er was overjoyed.
Chang'an City
Royal Palace
Hall of Liangyi.
Li Erduan sat on the dragon chair with a ruddy complexion.
He hadn't been praised like this in a long time.
Now people outside the palace are spreading the benevolence and righteousness of Li Er, saying that he is the Holy Lord and Mingjun.
Even the Xuanwumen mutiny, the people's prejudice against Li Er, has faded a lot.
For more than a year when he was emperor, Li Er did not move an inch of land, and devoted himself to the great Tang and the people of the world.
This wave of prestige is an encouragement to him.
Although he is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty with power over the world, if he is not recognized by the people of the world, what this emperor does is meaningless.
From this point of view, there was one thing Qin Mu didn't say at the beginning, and that was to support Xuanzang's journey to the west.
It will make the common people look at Li Er with admiration.
For Li Er, who cared a lot about his reputation, nothing was more important than this.
"Your Majesty, the final generals of the three thousand Xuanjia troops escorting Master Xuanzang to the west have been selected. They are all the best of the best. On the westward journey, they will definitely be able to protect Master Xuanzang well."
Li Jing stood up and bowed to Li Er.
Although it says three thousand, it is actually three thousand and five hundred people.
In the name of a caravan, 500 people set off with the westward procession.
Among them, 450 people are hidden stakes that Li Er intends to spread all over the country, and the remaining 50 people are masters in drawing maps.
"Okay." Li Er nodded, "Leave this matter to the pharmacist, I don't worry."
To build plank roads in the open and keep Chen Cang in secret, this is the purpose of Li Er's support for the westward journey.
At first, when Li Jing heard that Li Er wanted to send [-] soldiers of the Xuanjia Army to escort Xuanzang to the west, he almost didn't cry.
This is his old background.
But knowing Li Er's real purpose, Li Jing didn't feel bad anymore.
Since the blessing of Qin Mu's arsenal, the military strength of the Tang Dynasty has become stronger and stronger day by day. If it is to prepare for the future, this person Li Jing is still willing to transfer.
Moreover, besides the Xuanjia Army in the Tang Dynasty, the Zhenwu Army led by Qin Mu in the last Northern Expedition has already entered the first-class battle order of the Tang Dynasty.
One battle has cultivated an army of iron and blood, and Qin Mu's brilliance has to be recognized.
"Your Majesty, I don't know who to send for the general going west this time." Li Jing looked at Li Er and continued.
Speaking of this, Li Er paused for a moment, thinking secretly.
He really hadn't thought about this matter as a general going west, but the selection of this general was not sloppy.
"Qin Mu, what's your opinion on the general going west?"
Li Er looked at Qin Mu who had just raised his cup, and said quietly.
Drinking is still as solid as ever.
Chapter 222: When the Sunsets, When Will It Return (3/4)
Hearing this, Qin Mu put down the cup in his hand and muttered, "Wang Xuance."
As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was in an uproar.
Everyone thought about it, but they didn't expect that Qin Mu actually moved Wang Xuance out.
Although Wang Xuance has a military official and title, he is Qin Mu's personal bodyguard after all.
It is really hard to say whether it is appropriate or not for Wang Xuance to lead the three thousand Xuanjia troops and escort Xuanzang to the west.
"Wang Xuance?" Li Er stood up and walked around the hall, "You are willing to let him escort Xuanzang to the west. This trip to Tianzhu is a long way, and this journey will take several years."
Although Li Er was surprised, he did not doubt Qin Mu's selfishness.
But he knew that Wang Xuance and Xue Rengui were his two hearts, unless he was willing, no one else could touch them.
Moreover, as far as Qin Mu was concerned, Xuanzang's westward journey had nothing to offer except the Silk Road.
Besides, he has promised Qin Mu that he can participate in the reconstruction of the Silk Road.
Qin Mu looked at Li Er and smiled lightly, "For the sake of Datang, what am I willing to part with, I am not willing to part with it."
Others don't know, but he knows.
Wang Xuance is a ruthless man who destroys a country by one person, and what he destroys is Jieri, which is Tianzhu.
Escort Xuanzang westward.
There is no more suitable candidate for this general than Wang Xuance.
Moreover, Wang Xuance's diplomatic methods are also very clever.
However, Qin Mu is indeed a bit selfish. He wants to send a caravan to follow westward, promote the products of Mangya Trading Company, and prepare for the reopening of the Silk Road.
Wang Xuance led the team, so he was relieved.
For Qin Mu, the world today is full of gold, which cannot be picked up.
"Pharmacist, what do you think?" Li Er turned his head to Li Jing.
A moment of silence.
Li Jing replied: "The general thought that Wang Xuance was qualified for this position."
In the ninth year of Wude and Qin Mu, Xue Rengui defeated Jieli.
In the first year of Zhenguan, Qin Mu led the Zhenwu army to destroy the Turks in the north and flooded Shuofang.
Whether it is ability or character, Wang Xuance can do it.
The premise is that Qin Mu is willing to let Wang Xuance go.
Li Er nodded, "Since that's the case, Wang Xuance will be the general going west."
Qin Mu recommended it, Li Jing reconsidered it, and Li Er stopped asking for other people's opinions.
There was no objection in the hall.
.......
Fifteen days later.
The westbound team is at the west gate of Chang'an City, ready to go.
Xuanzang looked at the darkness behind him, and his blood pressure was slightly high.
Originally, he thought that if he went to Tianzhu to seek the scriptures, three or five people would do, or ten or eight people would do.
But this shit is too exaggerated.
It's so dark, I'm afraid there must be five or six thousand people.
Is this to learn scriptures?
This is to move for the Buddha.
Rao Xuanzang, an eminent monk who has attained the Tao, couldn't help complaining secretly in his heart, wanting to cry without tears.
But the situation was already like this, if Xuanzang wanted to refuse, it would be impossible.
"Master Xuanzang, I see that your complexion is not good, and you are not feeling well. Do you want to postpone it for two days?" Li Er came to Xuanzang and said with a smile.
Xuanzang's westward journey today is a major event in Chang'an, and Li Er came out to see him off in person.
Mainly, he wanted to see if the westbound team was strong enough, and whether he needed to add more people.
"Ah?" Xuanzang was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly waved his hands, "Thank you for your concern, the poor monk is in good health, and we are leaving now, the journey cannot be delayed any longer."
Xuanzang's heart skipped a beat when he heard the delay for two days.
What a joke.
If this is postponed for another two days, the number of this team will not exceed [-], and this has gone through a fart of hardships.
Front of the team.
Wang Xuance put on a firm head, turned his head to look at Qin Mu who was beside him, "Master."
When he said a word, there were tears in his eyes.
Wang Xuance, who faced tens of thousands of Turkic troops on the battlefield back then, did not lose his composure as he does today.
"Why, you can't bear us."
Qin Mu smiled, took a step forward, and put his right hand on Wang Xuance's shoulder.
To be honest, he was not feeling well either.
Wang Xuance and Xue Rengui have been with him for more than a year, have gone through hardships, and are life and death friends.
Parting today, too much regret.
He even regretted why he recommended Wang Xuance to Li Er, but he just thought about it.
After all, this is a great contribution to Wang Xuance.
Whether Wang Xuance cares or not is his idea.
But if Qin Mu couldn't make them honor their ancestors, it would be his incompetence.
"Hey, I knew you couldn't bear to part with us." Xue Rengui stepped forward, hammered Wang Xuance's chest, and then took out two things, "Here, the young master rewarded you, you have to watch your own life, don't lack an arm Broken leg, don’t blame me for not caring about you when you come back.”
Wang Xuance looked at Xue Rengui, the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably, and forced out a sentence, "Don't worry."
He was afraid that if he said one more word, he would cry uncontrollably.
It is enough to have these two in this life.
A moment of silence.
Wang Xuance regained his composure, took the bag from Xue Rengui, and exclaimed, "Master, this is too precious."
Inside is a big bag of golden beans, shining golden.
The other is a well-made horizontal knife, forged by a master blacksmith from fine steel and meteoric iron, which can cut iron like mud.
Qin Mu laughed and said, "Are we poor people now? It's a long way to go to Tianzhu, and you have to worry about it. You must protect yourself. I will follow the Xingmanya caravan to say hello. If this bag of golden beans is not enough Hua, let him transfer money from the commercial bank for you, don't let yourself be wronged..."
"The caravan brought an accompanying military doctor and a medical kit. If you are sick, get medical treatment in time, and don't delay..."
"Drink hot water after boiling, don't drink unboiled water..."
