"Although the situation has improved a lot after so many years, many things are still hindered in major aspects, such as when farming." Li Tai sighed, "I also know that you, Gu Qing, have always wanted to assimilate the Tibetans, but it is difficult. , and once Songtsan Gampo returned to Tubo, the hearts of the people in Tubo still turned to Songtsan Gampo. If the Central Plains officials want to take control of Tubo, Songtsan Gampo is indispensable. Friendship."

Gu Qing nodded, "We can't get around Songtsan Gampo, but this guy wants Tubo to cultivate and thrive, and now he is keeping a low profile for fear of big moves in the future. He is waiting for an opportunity, just like what Lu Dongzan said about the current trade route. Tubo is at a disadvantage in the competition, and this disadvantage is almost becoming a crisis, but he knows that even if there is a crisis, there is also an opportunity. It has already been seen that Datang will follow up."

"It's the disputes of the West and the hegemony of the sea. Nowadays, there are more and more things in the court. It's no wonder that Cen Wenwen sighed when he heard Shang Guanyi say that you were leaving the prime minister. Sometimes I think it would be better if you were in the court. I also I think so." Li Tai said to Gu Qing, "But the royal family is the royal family after all, and the royal family also has selfish motives."

Chapter 850 Will Someone Remember

Li Tai asked Gu Qing, "But why did you fulfill the royal family's selfishness?"

"I don't know either." Gu Qing said with a smile.

Sitting on the side, Wu Mei could hear the conversation between Li Tai and Gu Qing. The relationship between Gu Qing and the royal family is complicated but simple. The so-called selfishness is power, and power belongs to the royal family. There is no doubt about it. Everyone outside was terrified, for fear that the Gu family would rebel.

Gu Qing is a person who attaches great importance to feelings. There are too many people who cannot live up to their expectations and entrustments. Fang Xuanling, Cheng Yaojin, Niu Jinda, Qin Qiong, Yu Chigong, and Kong Yingda have had too much influence on Gu Qing. With this expectation and entrustment, Gu Qing took a step back, and Li Shimin also gave Gu Qing a way out. If he lost these things because of the rebellion, Gu Qing would live in regret and disappointment from these people all his life.

Deviate from this world, at least Gu Qing can't do it.

Gu Qing doesn't want to live with nothing, at least he can drink with these old guys and have a clear conscience.

Li Tai sat in Gu's house for a while longer, "Gu Qing, the engine efficiency is pretty good now, we're building a car, when the time comes, come over and see what's wrong and give us some explanation."

"Just send it to me after you make it." Gu Qing nodded.

"I'm going back." Li Tai just left.

Gu Xiao played with the paper airplane and said, "Father, why can the paper airplane fly without wings?"

Gu Qing smiled and said, "Isn't there a hang glider in the academy?"

"I know, but why?" Gu Xiao continued, "If you have enough speed, can you fly farther?"

Aircraft and dynamics, this kind of thing is still early for Gu Xiao and the academy, shaking their heads without answering, Wu Mei came and said, "The food is almost ready, let's eat!"

"Eat." Gu Xiao immediately put this worry behind him.

Wu Mei whispered next to Gu Qing, "The family of the girl who was asked to inquire between the husband and wife has already found out. There are three 19-year-old girls in the village who are not married. The one who met Li Junxian at the beginning was Lao Ding's family in the village. His family She was also born and raised in the village, and her grandfather was a well-known person in the village, but her father always wanted his daughter to marry a rich man, even if he was a concubine, he still wanted to find a rich man, so he never married."

"So that's the case." Gu Qing nodded thoughtfully.

"Husband." Wu Mei asked gossipingly, "Do you think Li Junxian is rich?"

"This guy..." Gu Qing hesitated to speak, "In fact, Li Junxian is still a good person. He has made a lot of contributions in his half life as a soldier, but he has no money now. When he wants to get married, Li Er must give him a reward. Money not a problem."

"It would be nice if my husband would give me some money." Wu Mei whispered.

"Oh, that's my money." Gu Qing turned his head.

Wu Mei knew Gu Qing's temper with a soft smile, and greeted her family to eat, "Master has eaten."

Sun Simiao was still arranging the herbs and said, "It's just the beginning of spring, don't dare to delay the herbs, you should eat first."

"Master and grandpa are eating." Gu Xiao pulled Sun Simiao and said, "If you don't eat, no one at home will dare to sit down."

Sun Simiao was so teased that he couldn't stop laughing, and sat down while leaning on a cane in his old age. In front of Sun Simiao, Wu Mei's cloth dishes were filled with soup and minced meat. Sun Simiao was already very old, but his body was still strong. His teeth were bad, so Gu Qing fixed Sun Simiao's dentures. Sun Simiao looked at the dentures made of jade and didn't want to put them in his mouth, he would rather just eat minced meat like this.

Gu Xiao is the favorite and the fastest eater in the family. Gu Lingcai is only two years old and can only drink porridge. Gu Xue is five years old and is more well-behaved and sensible. Wu Mei is always by her side , the three boys in the family, Sun Simiao, are very satisfied, but Gu Qing has always wanted a daughter, but Gao Yang is not in a good mood recently, and always makes Gu Qing sleep in the study.

It was dusk when Changsun Wuji came to the village, and he was filled with emotion when he saw everything in the village. Everything in the village changed too fast, and it was more orderly than here in Chang'an.

Yang Sheng and the fat monk were chatting and heard Zhang Yugong report, "What is this old thief Changsun Wuji doing in the village?"

"Our people are watching." Zhang Yugong said.

Changsun Wuji came outside Li Er's residence and stayed there for more than an hour without knowing what this guy and Li Er had said.

When he came out of Li Er's residence, Changsun Wuji came to Fang Xuanling's house.

Fang Xuanling was explaining some knowledge from ancient books to his grandson Fang Chengxian, when he saw his grandson Wuji coming, he said, "Look for yourself, grandpa is here as a guest."

"Oh." Fang Cheng nodded slightly and looked at the eldest grandson Wuji who walked into the house.

Fang Xuanling's wife was mending clothes under the oil lamp. Fang Chengxian said, "Grandma, there are plenty of new clothes for grandson, so there is no need to mend old clothes."

Mrs. Fang smiled, with more wrinkles on her face, and she said to her grandson, "Before, life was difficult. You children just don't know how to save money. Don't worry, grandma knows, and you can't see the needles and threads."

"The grandson is growing up, and these old clothes can't fit anymore."

Fang Cheng finished speaking first, Mrs. Fang's face was a little lonely, then she smiled and continued to sew and mend. Maybe she could only do these things for her grandson when she was old.

Changsun Wuji sat down and looked at Fang Xuanling who was also old, "Your family is still as poor as ever."

"It's good to be poor." Fang Xuanling said, "If you experience the good life of poverty like you, you won't think about your family background, and you won't think about power."

"You're talking about being full and thinking about lust." Changsun Wuji said.

Fang Xuanling nodded, "I'm different from you, you were born into a wealthy family."

"So many years have passed in the blink of an eye, I was actually very envious when you and Du Ruhui were by His Majesty's side as assistants." Changsun Wuji recalled.

"Actually, I envy you very much. You can help His Majesty deal with many relations between the court and China, and you can make suggestions in political affairs, and relying on you to travel and lobby among the aristocratic families, you have helped His Majesty do a lot of things." Fang Xuanling also said. Said.

"No, I envy you more. My eldest grandson Wuji has done so many things for the royal family. For Li Shimin's power, you have no selfishness. You can make decisions for the people of Tang Dynasty more often. Wei Zheng I have a bad temper and some elbows, but he is just like you, and I do more things with some selfishness, or for the royal selfishness. I can't refuse to accept the old. The younger generation is much better than us. , Old guys like us are destined to be overwhelmed by them." Changsun Wuji sighed, "Will anyone remember what you said we did?"

Fang Xuanling smiled.

Chapter 851 Arrival of the Persian Messenger

On the second day, at the next court hour of the court, Lu Dongzan had been waiting at the door of Pei Xingjian's house. Pei Xingjian's house was not hard to find, just beside Zhuque Street.

It was not until noon that Pei Xingjian came slowly.

"I met Secretary Lang. It's been a long time since General Pei." Lu Dongzan hurriedly saluted.

"Long time no see." Pei Xingjian said with a smile, "Go in and talk."

Lu Dongzan was invited into Pei Xingjian's house, and the two sat opposite each other.

"Have you met Gu Qing?" Pei Xingjian asked with a smile.

"I've been there." Lu Dongzan nodded and said, "Actually, I came here this time with Zanpu's doubts. I dare to ask what arrangements Datang has for Tubo in the next five to ten years."

Pei Xingjian continued, "Songtsan Gampo has been keeping a low profile recently, right? In fact, he should already know what I want to say. You can come here and ask me, which means that Songtsan Gampo can't wait for this opportunity."

Lu Dongzan smiled, "Zanpu has always said that General Pei is a man who can do something."
