The battle report!
Zhangsun Wuji read out a few simple sentences.
"Tuyuhun sent ten thousand cavalry to invade Liangzhou!
He killed a hundred merchants and captured a thousand people.
He plundered ten thousand bushels of grain and ten thousand cattle and sheep.
I don't know how much money has been lost.
The Liangzhou army fought a bloody battle and could still hold on!
However, their forces were limited and they were unable to annihilate the enemy!
I hope Your Majesty will send troops to crusade and eliminate this great disaster in the frontier!
I, the Governor of Liangzhou, kowtow."
Hearing this, all the officials felt a wave of grief.
One could imagine the blood that would stain the white snow and the cries of the people of the Great Tang!
Zhangsun Wuji held the battle report in his hand and said indignantly,
"Preposterous! This Tuyuhun has repeatedly invaded the borders of our Great Tang. This disaster must not be allowed to continue!”
Cheng Yaojin slapped his leg heavily and gritted his teeth.
"This barbaric alien race dares to abduct the people of the Great Tang! I, Old Cheng, will kill them all!”
Li Jing glared at the contents of the report and said,"
"Tuyuhun is good at raising horses and has many cavalry. He is good at roaming and fighting.
This old man will now ask His Majesty to send an expedition to the Western Regions and attack the capital of Tuyuhun!”
How could the people of the Great Tang be harmed by foreign races?
The ministers were also furious!
In recent years, the Great Tang had become strong and prosperous. It had already destroyed the Eastern Turks, and it had been a long time since the Outsiders had invaded!
Everyone discussed animatedly, wishing they could immediately send troops to exterminate the thieves!
At this moment, Zhangsun Wuji stood out." Sirs, please calm down!”
Zhangsun Wuji was the most cunning old fox, he was also very thorough in his thinking and was very thorough.
"At this moment, there is a snowstorm in Guanzhong and a surprise attack by the foreign races at the border. There is not much food in the national treasury.”
In this dilemma, this battle was not something they could fight as they wished!
"Then what should we do now? The people on the border are suffering from the invasion.!”
Cheng Yaojin had a fiery temper. At this moment, he wished he could crush the heads of those alien races!
"At this moment, we can only go to His Majesty and ask him to make a decision!”Zhangsun Wuji stroked his beard and said!
Wei Zheng's expression was serious as he closed the battle report." Princess Changle is giving birth tonight. His Majesty will definitely be waiting at Changle Palace!”
All the officials in the court knew that Princess Changle was the Emperor's favorite!
Cheng Yaojin mumbled,"
"When will this Princess Chang Le give birth to a child?!”
"Yuan Tiangang, you said that Princess Changle was pregnant with a qilin son, but before she gave birth, there was a snowstorm in Guanzhong and then a surprise attack by the foreign races at the border!”
"This is the Qilin son! It's still a disaster!"
"General Cheng!" Li Jing's expression changed slightly. Don't talk nonsense before the matter is resolved!"
Zhangsun Wuji also said," We will head to Changle Palace first and ask for His Majesty to discuss countermeasures. The most urgent matter now is!”
Cheng Yaojin quickly shut his mouth. He did not really blame Princess Changle and her child!
However, things were urgent, and he dared to speak. He did not use his brain and blurted it out!
However, Yuan Tiangang shook his head. Before the Saint Child was born, it was useless for him to explain any more!
All the ministers were worried about the child in Princess Changle's womb because of the snow disaster and the military disaster!
Actually, these two matters had nothing to do with Li Yu!
However, it just so happened that he was born, and the three things came together. The ministers could not help but think too much.
The officials stepped out of the Political Announcement Hall and headed to Changle Palace under the lead of Wei Zheng and Zhangsun Wuji!
At this moment, it was already nine o'clock at night.
The howling of the wind and snow whistled past the ears of the civil and military officials!
One step at a time!
The snow had already reached their knees!
If the Imperial Palace was like this, one could imagine how difficult it was for the commoners who had suffered from the snowstorm!
The atmosphere became oppressive. All the ministers wore their capes and lined up. Finally, they arrived at Changle Palace!
Li Shi Min was waiting in the side hall. Before Princess Chang Le gave birth, he refused to leave!
At this moment, Li Shimin saw all the officials in the court come to ask for an audience.
Li Shimin, who was already a little anxious, saw this and was puzzled. He said angrily,
"I ordered you to discuss the snow disaster in Guanzhong in the Xuanzheng Hall. Why did you come to Changle Palace?!”
Everyone looked at Li Shi Min, who was standing in front of Chang Le Palace with bloodshot eyes and a worried expression.
This was a father's worry for his beloved daughter.
All the officials were moved by this! However, there was something more important at the moment!
Wei Zheng and Zhangsun Wuji were the leaders. The two of them waved their robes and knelt in the vast snow, presenting the battle report with both hands!
"Your Majesty! Just now, the messenger from Liangzhou sent an urgent report!”
"Tuyuhun, a foreign tribe from the Western Regions, has invaded the border with 10,000 cavalry!”
Li Shi Min was shocked!
He hurriedly walked down the stairs and took the battle report from Wei Zheng's hands!
The contents of the battle report made Li Shimin furious.
"How dare you plunder the people of the Great Tang and invade our borders!”
"I swear to destroy Tuyuhun!"
Li Shi Min stood on the high-level and shouted coldly!
"Li Jing, Hou Junji!"
Li Shi Min looked at the two generals.
The two of them stepped forward and knelt with cupped hands.
"Your subject is here!"
"Zhen orders the two of you! He would lead 100,000 troops to attack Tuyuhun until their legs went weak!”
The two of them were excited and their voices were loud and clear!
"This subject obeys the decree!"
"The Outsiders bit my flesh and blood, so I'll bite their bones!”
The two generals were experienced in the battlefield and were quite heroic.
And at this moment…
However, Wei Zheng went forward and knelt down to dissuade him.
"Your Majesty! You can't go out!
This year, there were a few months of drought, the autumn harvest was not ideal, and there was not much grain in the national treasury.
If they sent troops to the border to attack Tuyuhun, then all the grain in the national treasury would be used as military rations.
However, at this moment, the blizzard had not stopped for even a moment. Compared to the chaos at the border, the snow disaster in Guanzhong was more urgent.
If we don't open the granaries soon, tens of thousands of people will freeze to death and starve to death, destroying the foundation of our Great Tang!
Please Your Majesty, first open the warehouse to release food, relief Guanzhong disaster victims!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Zheng knelt down in grief, and the ministers were silent.
Li Shi Min's heart ached. The people of Guanzhong and the border were all citizens of the Great Tang!
It was all because of his protection!
However, at this moment, he could only choose one!
Li Shi Min walked out of the house and looked at the sky!
Dark!
Blizzard!
The howling wind made his face hurt, but Li Shiming's heart hurt even more!
How should he choose?
Suddenly, Princess Changle's moaning and crying came from Changle Palace again!
Li Shiming looked at the hall behind him and recalled what Yuan Tiangang had said!
His eyes gradually filled with hope as he called out,"
" Where's Yuan Tiangang?!"
Yuan Tiangang trembled and stepped out from the crowd of officials. He knelt on the ground and said," I'm here!”
"Yuan Tiangang, you said that if the Holy Son is born in Princess Changle's womb, can it really change the fate of heaven and earth and stop this heavy snow?”
"Your Majesty, this subject! I'm not 100% confident!"
For the sake of his country and the world, Yuan Tiangang also became ruthless at this time.
"But this subject is willing to bet his life! With the birth of the Qilin Saint Child, the snow would definitely stop!
If you don't stop, I'm willing to die! Thank the world!"
All the officials were shocked. They did not expect Yuan Tiangang, a Taoist priest, to actually have such courage.
"Good! Good! Good!"
Li Shi Min looked at the hall as if he was holding onto a life-saving straw!
"We are waiting!"
Changle! You must give birth to the qilin son safely!
This concerned the fate of the entire Great Tang! The lives of countless people!
The officials could not help but look at the hall and pray silently in the wind and snow!
He could only hope that Princess Chang Le would give birth to the Holy Son safely!
At this moment…
Li Yu was in Princess Chang Le's stomach, sensing the movements outside.
He didn't expect that there would be so many people waiting for him to be born.
The imperial concubines, princes, princesses, all the ministers, and even the Emperor Li Er…all the top powers of the Great Tang were present.
This lineup was very powerful.
