Chang 'an, in the court.
Li Shi Min wore a dragon robe and sat on the throne.
He looked down at the officials with a dignified expression.
He understood that there were still some people who were extremely dissatisfied with him for the incident at the Black Tortoise Sect.
They believed that he was not worthy of being the emperor.
However, Li Shi Min didn't care. After all, there were countless generals and civil officials who were his trusted aides and had followed him through the war.
As long as he controlled military power, he would be able to control everything.
Scholars were only used to govern the country, but in the face of absolute strength, they did not dare to speak arrogantly.
Fortunately, these people were smart enough to know.
The situation was already under his control. Even if they had opinions, it would be useless. No blind guy would suddenly run out to oppose him.
Li Shiming was confident that given enough time, he would be able to completely take over the Great Tang. At that time, no one would be able to oppose him.
However, there was a problem right in front of him.
Even the Turks knew that the Great Tang was at its weakest with a new Emperor. They were not good people.
Taking advantage of a burning house was their skill.
A few days ago, he almost died at Gavin's hands.
Li Shi Min was extremely angry with the Turks, and he wanted nothing more than to exterminate them so that they would no longer exist in this world.
But since ancient times, the Turks had been the greatest threat to the Chinese.
Wouldn't it be so easy to solve it?
Right now, he needed to recruit soldiers and horses well. He needed to continuously expand the military camp. If he wanted to fight a tough battle, these were all necessary.
They still needed to be given enough time to train.
Li Shi Min couldn't help but sigh.
But the Turks wouldn't give them that much time, especially after learning that their son had died. They would use this opportunity to launch a massive invasion.
At that time, how should he deal with it?
Li Shi Min couldn't help but think of that white-robed general. If he was here, why would they fear the Turks?
He was ordered to become the Grand Marshal of the army and fight the Turks.
Wouldn't the Turks be scared sh * tless by this divine might?
Unfortunately, it was not that easy to find the white-robed general. Even if he was the emperor, it was useless.
It was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"My dear ministers, do you have any plans for the Turks?”
Li Shi Min asked.
On the first day of his return to court, he had called for morning court to deal with the Turks.
However, the court immediately quieted down.
Everyone looked at each other.
Everyone had heard of the ferociousness of the Turks since ancient times.
How could it be so easy to get rid of him?
The Great Tang had just ascended to the throne and was currently in an extremely chaotic period. The northern expedition had also exhausted a large number of soldiers.
"The Turkic Young Lord Wolf has died in our Great Tang territory, so I'm sure they won't let this matter rest. But in our current state, dealing with the Turks will be difficult.”
Wei Zheng, who was wearing an embroidered robe, stood up with a worried expression.
The current him was still very young, not even forty years old.
"Yes, I am."
As soon as Wei Zheng spoke, the other civil officials nodded.
The meaning was obvious. They couldn't take it anymore. At the moment, there was no other way except to sue for peace.
Although Li Shi Min understood, he still held some hope.
If he really wanted to sue for peace, it would definitely be extremely humiliating.
Judging from the fact that he could kill his own brother, Li Shiming was a very ambitious person and also a very proud person.
He wanted him to sue for peace with the Turks, cede territory, and pay reparations as soon as he ascended the throne.
This would cause his reputation to instantly fall to the bottom. Unless he was forced to, he would never do such a thing.
"Why don't we strike first and send a large number of soldiers to ambush the Turks?”
Suddenly, a military official stood out and suggested.
His name was Zhang Liang, and he was once the Cheji General of Prince Qin's Mansion. He was now the Imperial Physician.
However, when he said this, everyone immediately looked at him as if they were looking at a fool.
Especially Cheng Yaojin. He wanted to pry open his brain and see what this guy was thinking.
They had already lost a lot of their soldiers and were extremely weak. This was the most dangerous moment, and if they used all their strength to launch a sneak attack on the Turks, wouldn't they be courting death?
And then leave the Great Tang with weak forces in other places, giving the Turks a chance to capture all of them?
When he saw that everyone was staring at him, Zhang Liang could only shrink back resentfully and pretend that he had not said anything.
Li Shi Min looked around and found that no one had any useful suggestions.
He laid on the dragon throne and said helplessly,""If I could have brought that white-robed general back that day, why would I be troubled today?”
"I wonder who that white-robed general is?”
Li Shi Min's words immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Wei Zheng asked first.
Li Shimin recounted everything that had happened that day in detail. Tangning single-handedly took over 3,000 Turkic elites and even beheaded Gavin.
After he finished speaking, the imperial court once again fell into a ghostly silence.
Whether it was the civil officials or the military officials, they all looked as if they had seen a ghost.
"Your Majesty, are you sure you didn't hallucinate that day?”
Cheng Yaojin asked in a low voice.
"Bastard, do you think I'm talking in my sleep?”
Li Shi Min was furious.
After Cheng Yaojin said that he didn't dare, he immediately shrank his neck and stopped talking.
"If what Your Majesty says is true, I didn't think that there would be such a valiant person. If I can recruit him, defeating the Turks will be just around the corner.”
Qin Shubao said firmly.
Hearing this, Li Shi Min's eyes gradually became firm,"Pass down my order to search for this white-robed general in the entire country. Whoever can bring him to me will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold and an hereditary official title!”
...........
The sun was setting.
A handsome young man in linen clothes, who was leading a white horse, strode to the foot of the tall city wall.
On the city wall, the word 'Chang' an 'was carved.
