The Great Khan of the steppe Turks, Qimin, had specially requested marriage from Great Sui to show that both sides were living in harmony.
Qimin Khagan was the nominal ruler of the Eastern Turks. It could be said that he represented the entire Turks.
Seeing this memorial submitted by the Ministry of Rites, Yang Zheng's palm suddenly pressed down and closed it heavily.
On the surface, he looked calm, but in reality, he contained a shocking killing intent.
The atmosphere in the West Pavilion Garden froze!
It was an instinctive vigilance, or more precisely, a sense of danger that had been cultivated for decades in the military.
Wu Jianzhang, Zhangsun Sheng, and Qiu Rui were shocked. They thought that the assassin had infiltrated the West Pavilion Garden to assassinate the emperor.
Just as he was about to turn around to protect the spirit beast, there was nothing but Tian Zi, who was sitting quietly in thought.
In the next second, that terrifying cold aura disappeared without a trace, as if it had never appeared.
Immediately, the three auxiliary ministers seemed to have thought of something and looked towards Yang Zheng.
Everyone didn't say anything, but they knew that the source of the dangerous aura was Tian Zi!
It was extremely terrifying to completely hide one's emotions and shrink them freely, no matter what the purpose was.
Only those memorials about the barbarians could make the Son of Heaven so murderous and filled with the aura of wanting to destroy everything.
Not to mention Tian Zi, they were all extremely indignant about this. It was no wonder that Tian Zi had such a big reaction.
However, the three of them did not go up to advise Tian Zi because there was no need to.
According to the political vision he had shown before and the signs he had shown just now, he was a relatively calm and considerate emperor.
Moreover…
When the relevant state affairs were brought up in the morning court tomorrow, even if the emperor said something inappropriate, it would not be too late to say it then.
It was almost evening when he finished some administrative work in West Pavilion Garden…
Other than some officials who stayed behind, the important officials of the Tang Dynasty had already left their offices and returned to their residences.
As for Yang Zheng himself, he naturally returned to his own palace, the Two Elements Hall.
The Yin and Yang Palace belonged to the inner court. It was the second main hall of Taiji Palace. The emperor received important officials and was also a hall where he could directly stay overnight.
"Check the mission panel…"
Closing his eyes to rest, Yang Zheng muttered in his mind.
"Ding! Quest panel activated. Please check.”
Missions of varying difficulty appeared in his mind.
The rewards of all missions would automatically appear when the mission was received.
The higher the difficulty, the greater the rewards.
For example…
Main Mission-Create the Grand Canal. Without shaking the foundation of the country, complete it in ten years and strengthen the economic communication between the North and the South.
[Main Mission: Spread the imperial examination system and clean up the aristocratic families. Complete it within ten years and give all the scholars in the world a chance to take the exam.]
Any one of the main missions was a great achievement that would last for a thousand years. However, it was indeed a little difficult to complete it within the stipulated time.
For example, the Grand Canal, which connected the north and south of the world, had a total length of more than 2,000 kilometers!
It took a lot of manpower and resources to build the Grand Canal. Even at the fastest speed, it took six years to build it.
If they were not careful, they would repeat the same mistakes and repeat the turbulent war.
Naturally, Yang Zheng, who had a wealth of knowledge about modern and ancient times, already had a rough plan in his heart.
However, his prestige was not enough, and the imperial power had yet to be concentrated. It was not the right time yet.
At this moment, there was not much use in bringing it up in the imperial court, so it was better not to mention it.
Moreover, the Grand Canal was extremely important and had a far-reaching impact. Many factors had to be considered.
For example, military, economic, and even political…
Thus, he needed to think about it carefully. He really couldn't rush it.
At least, before the emperor's power was fully concentrated, he would not be able to complete these great achievements that would last for thousands of years and benefit the world.
[Side Mission: Take back the homeland of Qin, attack Tuyuhun, and take back the territory left behind by our ancestors. Time limit: 3 months.]
[Side Mission: Solve the problem of the bandits in the country and provide a stable environment for the people. Time limit: 1 year.]
Compared to the main mission, the side mission was more suitable for the current development.
The difficulty was not high, and it could lay the foundation for the main mission later on, achieving a certain degree of gradual progress.
Similarly, it was very suitable for the current situation. It could be considered a way to accumulate strength in the early stages.
As he scrolled down, there were many more…
These missions were issued based on the background of the era and the current situation.
It was both realistic and difficult. It all depended on how he chose.
With a general understanding, Yang Zheng did not continue reading. Instead, he turned to look at the top-ranked missions.
In other words, he had to search for sub-missions that matched the current situation…
[Side Mission: Build up the prestige of a great country, stop being friendly to foreign countries, and change one of the current national policies of Great Sui…]
The reward is a card from a mysterious organization and a card that represents the Emperor's Sword.
At that time!
In the early years of the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Gaozu faced the Turks at their peak. They dominated the northern steppe and extended their influence to Europe.
He had no choice but to use the method of the Han Dynasty to marry the Turks in their heyday.
In this period of time, Emperor Gaozu did not forget his humiliation and led his officials to disintegrate the Turks.
Thus, the Turks were split in two, their peak strength gone forever.
The Eastern Turks were located in the north of the steppe, while the Western Turks were located in the Central Asia of the Western Regions. The two sides had turned against each other and were constantly attacking each other.
All the hard work and effort during Emperor Gaozu's time had finally been rewarded handsomely, allowing the northern borders to be stable for many years.
Right now!
Yang Zheng's eyes narrowed as he recalled the memorial regarding the Turks…
The restoration of the Qin and Han dynasties would begin with the severing of the alliance with the Turks!
