"Crown Prince, this is a secret letter from His Majesty. It clearly states that he supports waging war against Peckham and collaborating with Tuli to completely destroy half of Peckham!”
"Please give the order, Crown Prince!"
If this decision was made normally, countless officials would definitely jump out to oppose it.
But today, the atmosphere was strangely quiet. Everyone looked at the slightly immature Li Chengqian sitting on the dragon throne, and no one spoke.
"Keming, do you have any objections?”
Li Chengqian cleared his throat and asked.
"Your Highness, I agree with His Majesty's decision!”
"I also agree!"
"Old Cheng said that these Eastern Turks had to be eradicated as soon as possible.”
"That's right! The Eastern Turks will be reduced to ashes wherever the Tang army reaches!”
No one in the court objected to this war. This was undoubtedly a miracle, especially when the country was facing a disaster.
"Then I'll give the order. Li Jing will be appointed as the chief steward of the Dingxiang Sect and lead the army to the Eastern Turks…"
"Li Jiwei!"
Li Chengqian read out a series of appointments. These were all arranged by Li Shimin in advance. Li Chengqian only needed to memorize them.
"Yes, Your Highness!"
After the morning court session, the army began to make preparations. On the second day, an army of more than one hundred thousand soldiers had already set out for the Eastern Turkic territory. This was the vanguard led by Li Jing.
As for the rations and supplies, they could only set off in the next few days. After all, they needed time to prepare.
Hundreds of thousands of people brought a few days 'worth of rations and quickly advanced towards the Guanzhong region.
"Your Majesty, the army has already been dispatched. I heard that His Majesty is going to personally lead the army!"
In Li Yuan's palace, a eunuch appeared beside Li Yuan, who was enjoying the dance of beautiful women. He whispered a few words into Li Yuan's ear.
"Humph! Shimin is still too young. As long as he leaves Chang 'an, we will be able to control the power of Chang' an and the power will eventually fall into my hands.”
Li Yuan's face turned cold.
Being chased off the stage by his son was the greatest humiliation in his life.
He had managed Guanzhong for so many years, how could Li Shimin control it when he just came to power?

"Little Feng Feng, look, the fish I caught is so fat!”
A group of people was fishing by the Qingshui River outside Qingshui County.
Basically, it included Li Er and Zhangsun Wuji, as well as Princess Chang Le and Ling Feng.
The reason why these people came fishing was because Ling Feng felt that it was cooler here and very suitable for summer.
Ling Feng's seat was the best. It was under a 500-year-old ginkgo tree by the Qingshui River. He lay on a specially made recliner and put his fishing rod aside. His eyes were slightly narrowed as he enjoyed this life very much.
"Okay, catch more. I'll get Grand Master to roast fish for you later!”
"Why me again?"
The advisor felt wronged. Every time Ling Feng opened his mouth, he would be exhausted.
"Shouldn't you be the one doing these things? Do you want me to do it personally?”
Ling Feng stretched and yawned.
"Oh..."
The advisor was depressed.
"Wow, Little Wind, look, I caught another fat carp!”
Princess Chang Le said excitedly.
"Alright, I'll roast carp for you to eat at noon!”
"Sir, I heard that carp can't be eaten. Don't you know?”
Li Er moved closer to Ling Feng's side and found that this place was suddenly extremely cool. It was several times cooler than his position. He had the urge to kick Ling Feng away.
However, after thinking about it, he held back.
"Why not? Do you have any common sense? Carp meat is fresh and tender, and it has relatively few bones. It's a very delicious fish. It has better meat than grass carp and fewer bones than carp and silver carp.”
"It's not that. It's because His Majesty's surname is Li, so in order to avoid suspicion and express respect for His Majesty, everyone spontaneously stopped eating carp. Isn't it bad for you to eat carp in public like this?”
Zhangsun Wuji had no choice but to take the blame under Li Er's gaze.
"Pah! His Majesty is a benevolent ruler, how could he mind others eating carp? It must be a villain like you who deceived the Emperor. If His Majesty's relatives have the surname Niu, Ma, or Yang, then wouldn't everyone be able to eat these? What would the people eat then?”
Ling Feng narrowed his eyes and rolled his eyes at Li Er.
Ling Feng's words made Li Er's face burn. He used to think that this was a glorious thing.
Now that he heard Ling Feng say this, it seemed like he was a fatuous ruler.
No, I have to recommend everyone to eat carp!
Li Er secretly made a decision in his heart. He absolutely could not let others find a weakness to attack him.
"Sir, we've been fishing for half a day and everyone has caught fish. Why are you the only one who hasn't caught a single fish?”
