Li Chengqian's East Palace finally restored his singing and dancing to peace. After he instructed the Hunu to beat Zhang Xuansu, he was in a state of turmoil and he had never been so worried that he would be abolished by Aye.

But since Wei Zheng became the crown prince's grand tutor, the situation has finally become calm and the position of crown prince has become stable again.

If there are any flaws, it is that Wei Zheng became the crown prince’s grand tutor shortly after he became the crown prince, and even went to court less and less.

This inevitably made Li Chengqian feel both a pity and a regret.

Li Chengqian still hopes that Wei Zheng will do his best to support him like Li Gang back then.

However, at this moment, Li Chengqian was sitting in the East Palace with a straight face. Soon, under the guidance of Helan Chushi, Hou Junji entered the East Palace. Looking at Hou Junji's arrival, Li Chengqian's face showed a satisfied smile.

Li Chengqian looked at Hou Junji and said, "Haha, I thought Duke Chen had stopped coming after seeing the storm a few days ago!"

"If you can't even get through this little storm, then you don't have to continue competing with the King of Wei!" Hou Junji looked at Li Chengqian and said, "The position of the prince must be the King of Wei at that time."

When Li Chengqian heard this, he looked at Hou Junji who was unrestrained and could not help but a hint of anger flashed through.

But Hou Junji didn't care about Li Chengqian's anger because Hou Junji had never taken Li Chengqian into consideration.

To be honest, these aristocratic families are also worried at this moment, and they can't help but mutter in their hearts, "Your King Wei, can't you calm down?"

After all, if you are defeated, at least you can have a place for the royal family and nobles of the Sassanian Kingdom to have a place to settle down.

"In contrast, there have always been countries west of the Western Regions, which shows that the land there can support enough feudal states.

"This time, I only have three layers!" Li Shimin stretched out three fingers and said seriously, "It's very sincere!"

I have directly invited so many aristocratic families in Chang'an. What I know is that you want to negotiate a business, but I don't know, and I think you are going to force the palace!

As for Li Tai, she was called over by Li Shimin. Li Shimin slapped the table hard and pointed at Li Tai and said:

"What do you want to do? Except for me, you have invited anyone with a title in the capital. What are you going to do?"

Li Tai looked at Li Shimin and said, "Didn't Persian envoy Beilus come to my Tang Dynasty to seek reinforcements?

Helan Chushi hurriedly grabbed Hou Junji who was about to get up and said that no matter what, Hou Junji could not be allowed to leave.

"Aye, the key point is not the words!" Li Tai was stunned when he heard Li Shimin's words, and said helplessly.

"Aye, you can't go too far. If you get too much this time, no one will be willing to participate!"

"Do you want to enfeoff the Western Regions?!" Li Shimin couldn't help but react when he heard Li Tai's words!

"Strictly speaking, it is best not to enfeoff the Western Regions, and it is best to let it serve as a buffer between the feudal state and our Tang Dynasty.

"Okay, we are sincerely helping that Persian country!" Li Shimin looked at Li Tai's words with his calculations about Persia thousands of miles away, but looking at his appearance, it seemed that he really wanted to help Persia out of his sincerity.

This is just the first time the two sides have met, so it is very normal to have reservations between each other.

"Is this the point?" Li Shimin looked at Li Tai and said, "The question is, what do you call these people over and do!"

But two years earlier, and three years later, this war that determines the fate of both countries will break out.

"Aye, I don't! We are really going to help Sasania. Even if we can't send soldiers, we send some weapons and medicines from thousands of miles away. Apart from our Tang Dynasty, there is no other country that can do it.

!”

"Crown Prince, your demeanor is just like this!" Hou Junji looked at Li Chengqian in front of him, and couldn't help feeling disappointed, and said with a serious expression, "What we are discussing is a major event that involves our wealth and life. If the prince is so angry, then

Please forgive me and sue me first!”

"Future-minded...Ahem, at least it's long-term, down-to-earth, and likes to use small projects to cover up big goals!" Li Shimin said this, looking at Li Tai and said gently, "Say, what do you want to do!"

After all, I heard that Sassanthemum and Dashi are fighting now. Even if armor and crossbows cannot be sold, weapons, medicines, silk, sugar, and tea... I finally had a guide, so I naturally have to use it well.

.”

Li Shimin nodded when he heard Li Tai's words and said to Li Tai, "What you said is indeed reasonable. Then if you want to hold a banquet, you can also bring the inner government supervisor, and it will also participate in a group.

!”

So I wanted to take this opportunity to reopen the Silk Road, which must be a big business!"

But besides Li Tai, who dared to send invitations to the Duke's House in the capital at one banquet.

"I don't want it either, but who asked it to fight against Dashi?" Li Tai said for granted.

"At this time, Sassanthesanthes needed our Tang Dynasty the most, and we also needed a half-dead Sassanthesanthes to resist the attack of the big food.

It is still necessary to use such a country to test the strength of the current Arab Empire.

Li Chengqian could have heard Hou Junji's reserved support, but Li Chengqian didn't care.

In fact, Li Tai not only sent invitation letters to the military generals, the royal family, the Guanlong nobles, the five families and seven surnames, the four surnames of Guanzhong, the Fang family, the Du family, and the Wei family...

In this way, this Beilus came to the Tang Dynasty thousands of miles to seek help and even established a temporary diplomatic government.

Only when we get rid of Goguryeo will we be able to make a move and we will be qualified to divide the Sassanian table.

In fact, what Li Tai didn't know was that in history, the decisive Battle of Nahawand would break out this year, and Persia directly lost the final decisive power in his hands.

My father-in-law, the prince is so kind today, why should you do this? Sit down, drink a glass of water and wine, and enjoy the singing and dancing!"

Especially after the third century of the Han Dynasty, it entered the Dark Age, but a guy from Aldashire emerged from Sassanthes, reorganized the rivers and mountains, overwhelmed Rome, and surrendered peace. He directly created the top empire from the slaves of the country, which was enough to see Persia.

The national foundation and resilience.

When Hou Junji saw this scene, he couldn't help but glance at him, but he didn't say much. Hou Junji understood that the only one who could make Li Chengqian so angry was the only King of Wei.

"Aye... What kind of image do I have in your psychology? Don't just think about it!" Li Tai said in protest.

"Crown Prince, my father-in-law has always had such a temper and does not know how to speak. Please forgive me.

"If Duke Chen has no intention of cooperation, it would be better not to come today!" Li Chengqian said angrily when he heard Hou Junji's words.

To be honest, even if the Arab Empire in this state fights head-on with the Tang Empire, Li Tai doesn't think that the Tang Empire can firmly take over this opponent.

In fact, after Hou Junji returned home, he also received an invitation, which stated in detail that the King of Wei had a business. If he was interested, he just needed to send someone who could decide to attend the banquet.

Even if the country is strong in the future, it is impossible to fight back against the Tang Dynasty through the Western Regions!" Li Tai said with a serious expression.

This directly leads to the fact that the army still remains strong inertially, but it no longer has the attitude of a crazi believer who devotes himself to the Lord and fearlessly.

"Aye, why don't I add one to you?" Li Tai said timidly, but he said slightly tough.

At the same time, this saint also knew how to use religion to arm the Arabs' spirit and use sharp swords to strengthen the Arabs' bodies.

Now that Beilus is here, we can at least know clearly what the Sassanid is missing now. We sell the price to Beilus ten times or twenty times according to the goods, and we also take the goods to Sassanid very considerately.

It's a very good way to make profits.

First of all, in the Caliphate era, the Arabs, at least for their own nation, truly produced saints.

"Just just to open the Silk Road?" Li Shimin looked at Li Tai and said, "Just just to make money? Not like your style?"

This made Li Chengqian feel angry, but Li Chengqian knew even more that if Hou Junji left this time, Hou Junji would definitely be an enemy of him.

Starting from the Arabian Peninsula, which was almost impossible to start as the place of origin, it defeated the Western Roman Empire and destroyed the glory of Persia, thus occupying the center of the Eurasian continent.

"Selling quota!" Li Tai said calmly, "After all, things like the Silk Road are not something that can be opened just by saying it!

Li Tai now acted like you would sue you for slander, and denied it repeatedly.

In comparison, if it weren't for Wang Xuance's reason, he would have been much more reliable to be in the Xuanwu Sect under the command of King Wei than under the command of the prince, but life is so impermanent, and all he can choose is the prince.

In this way, we can take advantage of this opportunity to investigate the situation west of the Western Regions!"

To be honest, facing the invitation letter sent by Li Tai so arrogantly, it is not considered as if Li Tai formed a clique for personal gain. After all, if it was a clique for privacy, then the entire court would not be controlled by Li Tai.

But as a person who left his name in the history of the earth, he still had some impression of him.

But this time, because Songtsen Gampo led the Tubo people to help, the Arabs had a higher estimate of Persia's combat effectiveness, so they had to make more preparations to postpone this decisive war.

What we have to face is not an old dynasty, but an empire that condenses into a fist.

Even if he doesn't help Li Tai, if he stomped himself hard as a neutral at a critical moment, he would probably be defeated.

"What do you want!" Li Shimin heard Li Tai's words and said slightly alertly.

Hou Junji is Duke Chen, so it doesn’t matter if he leaves, but he is afraid that he will not be able to survive in the prince’s mansion in the future.

But after the Caliphate era passed, the Wumaiye Dynasty took over. Although it was one of the top Muslims dynasties, the kind of heartfelt respect for the saints in the Caliphate era was gradually replaced by respect for power.

"Aye, you still understand me!" Li Tai said, "Even if you have a purpose, I will still be the ban for Aye!"

Because the Arabs with one hand and the other hand are completely different from the opponents that the Han people encountered in the past.

When Hou Junji heard Li Chengqian's words, he didn't say much and said to Li Chengqian, "I just don't like some people with false reputations to steal high positions. If the prince is willing to use me more, he will naturally serve the prince!"

After all, our main goal now is Goguryeo. Before Goguryeo was resolved, I don’t think we have room to participate in this war.

But at this moment, a servant ran in and said a few words to Li Chengqian in his ear, which made Li Chengqian's face look ugly, and he couldn't help but hold the wine glass in his hand tightly.

"Reopen the Silk Road?" Li Shimin stopped and roared when he heard this, saying, "What does this have to do with you summoning aristocratic families of all sizes?"

To be honest, the Arab army that had not ended in the Caliphate era may not be less spiritually than the top army when China was just liberated.

"But I have never wavered in my heart to rely on Duke Chen. In the future, Duke Chen will become the pillar of the sky in my Tang Dynasty!"

Although it took a few more years to prepare, no one knows how much Sassanid can integrate it.

Li Chengqian didn't expect Hou Junji to be so arrogant and leave decisively without any speculation.

For Li Tai, in his own view, the Sassanid dynasty is naturally not strong compared to the Tang Dynasty.
To be continued...
