I'm a marquis in Datang

Wei Zheng said, "I understand."

Changsun Wuji turned his eyes, landed on Li Ji again, and continued: "Director Li, Du Qi's army is not long away from reaching Shazhou City, and it will arrive in two or three days at most. So now , We must hurry up and make arrangements. Only when the arrangements are made early can we advance the plan later.”

Li Ji said: "I will understand."

Changsun Wuji said impatiently: "Since that's the case, let's start making arrangements. Xiang Wei and I will assist you."

"Thank you!"

There was a smile on Li Ji's face.

Whether it is Changsun Wuji or Wei Zheng, their status in the court is actually much higher than that of Li Ji.Li Ji commanded the army, and he was also worried that the two would not cooperate. Now that they are willing to help, it is best.

Li Ji immediately made arrangements and subdivided the tasks.After everything was arranged, Li Ji changed the subject: "Duke Qi and Minister Wei, Your Majesty has returned to Chang'an. Are you two planning to go back after this battle is over, or when will you return to the court?"

Changsun Wuji said: "Let's talk about it after this battle is over."

Wei Zheng also said: "Your Majesty and Prime Minister are in the court, so there won't be any problems. On the contrary, Qi Guogong and I stayed at the front line. Although we can't fight the enemy, at least we can help you."

Li Ji said seriously: "Thank you very much."

Changsun Wuji and Wei Zheng shook their heads, they stopped talking to Li Ji, and immediately got up to arrange the next thing.Time is running out, they must hurry up, and there is not much time left for them now.

Chapter 1113 True and False

true and false

Du Qi led an army of more than [-] troops, and marched quickly.

Along the way, there were no obstacles.

All over the territory of Shazhou, the army had already evacuated. As for the people of Shazhou, many people lined up to welcome Du Qi's army.Because the people living on the border these years have deeply experienced the richness of the Xia Kingdom and the preferential treatment of the Xia Kingdom.Merchants of the Xia Kingdom do business in Guazhou and do not need to pay taxes.

Even saying that it belongs to the Xia Kingdom, it seems to be superior to others, which is different from ordinary people.The people of the Xia Kingdom were exempted from the agricultural tax for the first few years. Although the agricultural tax has been restored now, the corvee has long been abolished.

Although the common people of the Xia Kingdom were all enlisted in the army, there was no government military system, and there was no such thing as letting the common people prepare their own food and participate in the war.In particular, the people of the Xia Kingdom live a prosperous life. Even if they don't farm, they just work in the factory and can support a family.

Under such a premise, many people in Shazhou have admired Xia Guo for a long time.

.In addition, it was also because Du Qiben was the person who went out of Datang.Moreover, when Du Qi was in Suzhou in the early years, he was also in charge of Suzhou, eliminating evil and promoting good, and punishing corrupt officials.

Because of this incident, the people in Shazhou never regarded Du Qi as a heinous person, and never boycotted Du Qi. On the contrary, they were quite close to Du Qi and trusted Du Qi even more. People can live a good life.

The common people lined the road to greet each other.

This scene made Xue Rengui, Ma Yuan and others extremely proud.

Li Jing, Su Dingfang and others were astonished.

It feels incredible.

Su Dingfang used to govern Guazhou. He asked himself that during his stay in Guazhou, because he took care of the military affairs of Shazhou, he knew the situation of Shazhou. He asked himself that during his stay in Shazhou, he kept besieging bandits and did a lot for the people things.

Wei Shuyu, the governor of Shazhou, has been working for the benefit of the people, benefiting the people, reducing the taxes and corvees of the people, and constantly opening up business routes, enabling the people to grow cotton and vegetables on a large scale so that the people can make money.It can be said that whether it is Guazhou or Shazhou, a lot of effort has been spent.

Even so, the common people lined up to greet Du Qi, which was surprising but a little sad.

Li Jing felt emotional.

It's the trend!

Du Qi has such influence and has a very high prestige in the hearts of the people. It is extremely simple for Du Qi to win Shazhou and Suzhou, and it is impossible to be blocked.

The team continued on their way mightily, getting closer and closer to Shazhou City.It's just that when it was about to arrive at Shazhou City, it was already getting late. Because the soldiers in the army were galloping all the way, they were quite exhausted, so Du Qi ordered to camp and rest overnight, and went straight to Shazhou City tomorrow.

The lieutenant soldiers began to bury the pot and cook.

The smell of food lingers in the camp.

Du Qi walked around the camp, looked at the situation of the soldiers, and then returned to the main tent of the Chinese army.But not long after he sat down, news of bad people came in.

This is a letter from Chang'an.

Du Qi opened the letter to check it. When he saw the contents of the letter, his expression changed slightly.Because the content of the letter is very simple, it is the news of Li Xiaogong's illness.

Li Xiaogong was sick and in a trance.

Du Qi became worried.

Du Qi also respects Li Xiaogong very much, not only because Li Xiaogong is his father-in-law, but also because Li Xiaogong always protects and helps him.In the early years, Li Shimin appointed the governor of the Anxi Protectorate. At that time, Li Shimin considered Li Xiaogong as the governor of the Protectorate of Anxi, but Li Xiaogong refused because of illness.

Now, Li Xiaogong is really sick.

In Du Qi's heart, he was thinking about Li Xiaogong's illness.After thinking about it for a while, Du Qi ordered someone to call Shangguanyi to discuss matters concerning Li Xiaogong.

After Shangguanyi entered, Du Qi handed the letter to Shangguanyi and waited for Shangguanyi to read it.After Shangguanyi finished browsing, Du Qi said, "What do you think about the King of Hejian County?"

Shangguanyi thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, I think that there may be two possibilities for the illness of Prince Hejian."

Du Qidao: "Tell me and listen."

Shangguanyi said: "The first possibility is that the king of Hejian is really ill. However, I think that the king of Hejian is in good health and in the prime of his life, so it is unlikely that he is ill. Suddenly he is mentally ill. In a trance, there is a certain trickiness."

"So, there is a second possibility."

"The prince of Hejian is pretending to be sick."

Shangguanyi continued: "The reason why the King of Hejian pretended to be sick is very simple. It is to avoid disputes. Right now Xia Guo is fighting with Datang, especially when Datang is suddenly defeated. The loss of soldiers and generals is countless. Datang, An influential person is needed to preside over the overall situation, and King Hejian is the most suitable candidate. King Hejian himself is a relative of His Majesty. Once King Hejian leads the army, he will be able to restrain you. County Hejian Wang should have deduced this possibility, so he took the initiative to avoid it."

Du Qidao: "It is possible."

Shangguanyi said: "Furthermore, in this letter, the most crucial point is mentioned.

point.It was the Hejian County King who had been thanking guests behind closed doors before, and had never had any illness.It was just now that he suddenly fell ill. "

After a pause, Shangguanyi said: "I conclude that the Hejian County King is probably pretending to be sick."

Du Qi nodded.

In fact, he also made the same judgment, and just called Shangguanyi to discuss the matter together.

Shangguanyi said: "However, Your Majesty, it is not appropriate for the Prince of Hejian to be in Chang'an all the time. Once it is time for a decisive battle with Datang, the existence of the Prince of Hejian may affect the situation. The best arrangement is to let The King of Hejian County is coming to Xia Kingdom. Only in this way can we completely cut off possible risks."

Du Qi nodded and said: "You arrange bad people in Chang'an to contact your father-in-law and ask his opinion. However, you must be cautious in this contact, because there are likely to be countless people staring at the Hejian County Palace today. If you don't pay attention , there may be problems.”

Shangguanyi said: "I understand."
