Turk.

in the royal court.

The Turkic king sat on the throne and looked at the tribal chiefs below.

In the royal court, there was depression.

The slaughter of 300,000 Turkic cavalry was a disaster for the entire Turkic country.

If it wasn't for the Tang Dynasty to send a large army, it went deep into the Turkic grasslands and massacred.

Under the power of the Tang Empire, the major tribes of the Turks had to gather together. At this moment, the king of the Turks is probably facing the riots of the major tribes...

The Turkic king looked calm on the surface, but in fact he was extremely worried.

Because, only he knows that the Turkic national teacher secretly sneaked into the Tang Dynasty, and has never returned...

The Turkic king could not imagine what the consequences would be if the national teacher was also left in the Tang Dynasty.

You must know that over the years, the Turkic royal court has subdued the major tribes, relying on the national teacher.

The national teacher sits in the royal court with the power of one person.

Now, the life and death of the national teacher is unknown. Once the news spreads, I am afraid it will be a disaster...

Just when the Turkic king was worried, a man with a rebellious expression got up.

"Your Majesty, the Great Tang destroyed my 300,000 iron cavalry. This hatred cannot be shared."

"Now, the Tang Dynasty has dispatched a large army to go deep into the grasslands and massacre the Turkic people. We should work together to keep this army completely on the grasslands."

The man with a rebellious expression just finished speaking, and everyone quieted down.

Leave the people of Datang completely on this grassland?

How to stay?

What to keep?

With the absence of 300,000 cavalry, with the national strength of the Turks, it is difficult to protect oneself, and there is still energy left to leave the Great Tang army?

The Turkic king looked at the unruly man: "Huyan, do you know what you are talking about?"

The unruly man bowed slightly: "Your Majesty, the grassland is my Turkic territory after all."

"Even if the Tang Dynasty's national strength is strong, sending a large army into our grasslands is self-defeating."

"In the grasslands, there are dangers everywhere, and natural and man-made disasters can be seen everywhere."

"Datang has no detailed information on my grassland, and without my grassland map guidance, it means losing the initiative."

"I can wait for nothing, and win more with less..."

The rebellious man stood above the royal court and talked eloquently, as if he had the chance to win.

When other people heard these words, their faces changed slightly, and they thought about the feasibility.

The unruly man is the patriarch of the Huyan clan.

The Huyan clan is one of the top ten tribes in the grassland.

And at least in the top three.

The warhorse produced by Huyan's is the fastest warhorse in the entire grassland.

Therefore, the words of a rebellious man are very important.

The Turkic king looked hesitant.

If the national teacher did not sneak into the Tang Dynasty, the Turkic king would really consider what Huyan said.

However, now that the national teacher is gone, the Turkic king has no idea how many cards the Tang Empire still has.

Under such circumstances, the Turkic king really did not have the courage to provoke the Tang Empire again.

"Huyan, are you sure that Datang doesn't know about my grassland information?"

The Turkic king asked in a low voice.

Hearing the words, the unruly man immediately said: "Your Majesty, my grassland is vast, and the ten major tribes are scattered around."

"Even if the Tang Empire has been searching for ten years, it is impossible to find it!"

The reckless man's words were full of strong confidence.

The others nodded secretly.

really.

The grassland is too big.

To find the location of the top ten tribes within such a large range is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.

Say it again!

Take ten thousand steps back!

Even if Datang found one, what would happen?

Around each of the top ten tribes, countless traps and secret posts were arranged.

Just to deal with this, the army of the Datang Empire is estimated to have suffered heavy casualties...

Except for the Turkic king, almost everyone felt that what the unruly man said was reasonable.

"Kings..."

Seeing that the Turkic king hesitated, the unruly man was about to increase his persuasion.

However!

at this time.

A figure hurried into the royal court.

"Report! Report!!"

"The big army of the Tang Empire broke through the Huyan tribe, the Huyan tribe, and countless casualties..."

As soon as the words came out.

Above the royal court, everyone's expressions changed drastically.

The unruly man, Huyan Shi, took a few steps back and collapsed to the ground with a thud!

...

...

Royal Palace.

After Li Si retired from the court, he returned to the Hall of Longevity.

"Your Majesty, it's time to eat..."

The valet eunuch bowed and said.

Li Si glanced at the sky and said casually, "Bring your lunch up."

Li Si's voice just fell.

Outside the hall of longevity, a palace maid and eunuch carrying exquisite dishes entered the hall of longevity.

As the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Si naturally would not treat himself badly in the face of food.

These dishes were prepared by the royal chef of the palace for a whole morning, and then they were carefully cooked. Every dish was delicious in the world.

However, Li Si randomly picked a few dishes and ate a few bites.

Just when Li Si was having dinner, the eunuch who was close to him came in and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, the Minister of Industry and Commerce is outside to see you."

"The servant has already told him that His Majesty is eating, and the Minister of Work said that he is willing to wait for His Majesty to finish the meal before asking to see you..."

Li Si heard the words and waved his hand: "Let the Minister of Industry come in."

"According to the order..."

Not long after the valet eunuch left, the Minister of Industry walked in quickly.

"Wei Chen has seen His Majesty."

The Minister of Industry looked excited.

"Get up."

"Wei Chen thanks Your Majesty."

The Minister of Industry stood up, his face excited.

Li Si took a bite of the vegetables, glanced at the Minister of Industry and said casually: "Is there any new progress in the gunpowder thing?"

The only thing that can make the Minister of Industry behave like this is the gunpowder that the emperor personally explained.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Wei Chen has made a new breakthrough in the research and development of gunpowder."

The Minister of Industry immediately said: "Wei Chen added a new ingredient to the original formula of gunpowder. With this ingredient, the stability of gunpowder has been greatly improved, and its power has also been improved."

The Minister of Industry danced and danced.

During this period of time, he has always followed the Holy Order, and now that there is a breakthrough in research and development, how can he not be excited?

Seeing this, Li Si looked calm.

"Can Aiqing have lunch?"

Li Si looked at the Minister of Industry and said.

The Minister of Industry was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, then bowed and said, "Reporting to Your Majesty, Wei Chen develops gunpowder day and night, and I have never eaten it..."

"In that case, sit down and eat with me."

As soon as Li Si finished speaking, the eunuch who served in the room brought a chair and placed it beside the dragon table.

The minister of the Ministry of Industry heard the words, his face was shocked, and he said in fear: "How can I be qualified to have dinner with Your Majesty..."

"I said you are qualified, you are qualified."

Li Si gestured to the Minister of Industry and asked him to sit down.

It's just that the Minister of Industry dares to sit down...

To him, Li Si was the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and he was just an ordinary courtier.

If the ruler and his ministers share a table, wouldn't it be a violation of the rules and etiquette?

You are you.

A minister is a minister.

Both cannot be surpassed!

The Minister of Industry was terrified. .

However, in the end, under the order of the emperor, the Minister of Industry could only bite the bullet and sit down.

However, even so, the Minister of Industry was still restless, his legs were weak, and he didn't even dare to touch chopsticks...
