Although Vijay Khan had negotiated peace with the Tang Dynasty at the suggestion of Tunyugu, the two countries traded in the western surrender city and maintained peace for many years. However, unlike the sub-countries such as Xi, Khitan, Bohai, and Heishui, who were enthroned by the Tang Dynasty, different from the many small countries that vassed the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions, and different from the so-called ten-subject Khans of the Western Turks who had been hiding in the Tang Dynasty for many years, the Eastern Turks, like Tubo, were not vassal states of the Tang Dynasty, but equivalent countries. Tubo also called himself a nephew and regarded the Tang Dynasty as his uncle. The Eastern Turks had never made such concessions.

As a country that was once destroyed by the iron hoof of the Tang Dynasty and then rose again, the Eastern Turks have always been proud. They even did not recognize the Western Turks at all. In their opinion, there was only one Turk.

So this time, the Turks were divided into two due to civil strife. Both Khans were willing to submit to the Tang Dynasty and sent high-ranking officials of Ye Hu to Chang'an, which naturally attracted a lot of praise for the saints. Therefore, Li Longji gave such a high standard for such a grand event. Not only did the Minister of Rites Liu Zhirou personally go to welcome and resettle, but he also blocked the widest imperial road of the Zhuque Street of Chang'an, for Du Shiyi and his envoys to enter the capital. On both sides of the road, the soldiers of the Yulin Army and Shenwu Army stood with their swords. More people were crowded behind and watched, but they did not dare to speak loudly under the pressure of the officers and soldiers.

Even so, facing the neat Lifang, the surging crowds and majestic military posture, Guli Peiluo and Yi Li Chuoba still felt an extraordinary impact. Both of them were the same leader, and now they are powerful on the east and west sides, and they are not stubborn and ignorant. They had already communicated along the way. At this moment, Guli Peiluo whispered: "Although Shi Jin has settled in Xiazhou for a long time, it should be the first time to come to Chang'an? The Tang Dynasty Tiankang is indeed the richest person in the world. Such a city is simply unimaginable."

Li Chuoba previously left Chen Baoer to take charge, and there were several capable subordinates in the tribe whom he promoted, so he was not afraid of any problems after leaving. On the way, Du Shiyi once reminded him that Guli Pei Luo was a man of great talent and strategy, far from being comparable to a fool like Ashinashi, so he was extremely careful.

Therefore, Guli Peiluo was so moved, and he said with a smile: "Although it was my first time to come to Chang'an, I have been fortunate to visit Luoyang twice. The majestic place is definitely not inferior to Chang'an. However, you said that the Tang Dynasty Tiankang is the richest person in the world, but this is not very accurate. I have to add that it is not the richest, but the most powerful person can be rich in the world and make the people surrender."

The two leaders of the Mobei Qiang tribe at the back were talking secretly, and Du Shiyi, who walked side by side with Liu Zhirou, did not notice it. Liu Zhirou was the elder brother of Liu Zhiji, a famous historian of the Tang Dynasty. Previously, Liu Zhun, the son of Liu Zhiji, was demoted because he was dancing a yellow lion like Wang Wei. Liu Zhiji was demoted because his son complained about his grievance and died in the office. If Du Shiyi had not submitted a hand to Liu Zhiji's work "Shi Tong" to the emperor, this famous historian would not have been able to show his grievances and posthumously awarded the title of Minister of Works and the posthumous title of Wen.

Because of this, Du Shiyi heard Liu Zhirou whisper to explain to her various discussions about the Chang'an court and the world in recent days. She knew in her heart that the other party was repaid, which was also considered the good result she had achieved in the past.

At the end of the explanation, Liu Zhirou suddenly lowered her voice and said, "There are very high calls for Marshal Du to be the prime minister in the court. There are even rumors that the Prime Minister Niu is now in poor physical strength, so he recommended Marshal Du to be the predecessor."

It's ridiculous that although he and Niu Xianke couldn't have a deep personal relationship, they also had letters in private. He once said that Niu Xianke was very clear. He did not have such great skills in qi cultivation, and it would be better to be clean without seeing him.

Du Shiyi thought so in her heart, and said with a sneer: "Perhaps someone spreads rumors. There are some people in this world who are troublesome."

Even though Li Longji was quite satisfied with the envoys sent by the two Khans in the east and west of the Turks, as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he would not have summoned him immediately. Therefore, Guli Peiluo and Yi Li Chuoba were personally arranged in the Sifang Pavilion by Liu Zhirou. Du Shiyi was staying in the inn to be summoned, but what he did not expect was that the central official Li Jingren actually came in a hurry and congratulated him with a smile.

"Your Majesty once asked, as the governor of Shuofang, he had a private house in Chang'an. At that time, someone in front of the imperial court used it as a private house in Xuanyangfang. Your Majesty learned that it was purchased by Marshal Du during the Wannianwei. After that, although he purchased two idle yards in all directions, it was inconsistent with Marshal Du's current position in front of the door and his official position was high. He immediately ordered the Ministry of Works to free up land around Marshal Du's old house in Xuanyangfang to create a new title, and then open the door along the street to show his honor and favor."

There are many fangs in Luoyang, Chang'an, and ordinary people and even ordinary officials. The doors of this house are open to the cross street of the fang. They are never allowed to open on the fang wall. Only officials of third rank and above, as well as princes and nobles, can be allowed to open on the fang wall. Du Shiyi had not yet reached such a status when he was in Chang'an. Later, although the official rank was reached, he rarely returned to Chang'an, so he was too lazy to make trouble. If Zi thought of such a residence today, he naturally had to show a gratitude and cry out, saying thanks Lianlian, and gave Li Jingren a "red envelope".

Li Jingren is naturally even more polite about Du Shiyi who took action: "If Your Majesty hadn't felt the cold yesterday, he should have summoned General Du today. However, if General Du's great achievements in surrendering the Turks, Your Majesty will definitely give you a generous reward. It is not surprising that even if you enter the Political Affairs Hall to be the prime minister."

It would be fine if Liu Zhirou said this, but Li Jingren also said this, and Du Shiyi had to doubt the article behind it. He immediately cleverly tested Li Jingren, and heard that the words he showed were not Li Longji mentioned this, but that there were such rumors outside, so he couldn't help but be more alert.

So, after staying at the East City Station for the time being, he asked Azle, who was accompanying him to go to Niuxian’s house to deliver a letter. As a result, Zhang Xing arrived shortly after Azle left. The two men had been attending for many years, and Zhang Xing did not greet him as soon as they met. He said bluntly: "Master, Li Linfu is indeed very cunning. If I have a little greed, I will be deceived."

Among the people in the shogunate, Zhang Xing was always the most quick-witted and wise. If he could make him say such words, Du Shiyi couldn't help laughing: "Why, Qijun has dealt with Li Linfu directly?"

"If I hadn't seen Li Xiangguo, how could I say this?" Zhang Xing saw Du Shiyi ask him to sit down, and after he sat down opposite him, he changed to a comfortable sitting position cross-legged, he recounted Li Linfu's words, and then smiled bitterly, "To be honest, I'm not unhappy, but later I thought about how important the position of Shuofang's Jiedushi was, and I don't know how many people covet it. How can I steal this position? At that time, I planned to turn back and explain the matter to the general, but who would have thought that the general was about to act as Prime Minister Niu, would have spread everywhere in a few days."

Speaking of this, Zhang Xing pressed the small table in front of him with his hands and said word by word: "I went to see Niu Xiangguo immediately at that time. He was a generous elder. He only said that he would follow the crowd and he would not mind it. But when he happened to meet the Censor Yao Hong came. Not only did he sneer at me, he also said that I was greedy and not enough to swallow the elephant, and he dared to imagine the position of Shuofang Jiedu. At this time, I realized that something was wrong. It turned out that the rumor was that I, the judge of the Jiedushi, wanted to get involved in the position of Shuofang Jiedushi, and the general wanted to worship the minister again, so..."

"So you don't have to say anything after that, and you can think of what kind of rumors they are." Du Shiyi interrupted Zhang Xing and said disrespectfully, "X-Trail, you have been with me for many years. When facing the position of Jishou, you are moved by Jishou for a while. This is a normal reaction. Everyone will do this. Li Linfu has always counted all possibilities in it. Therefore, of course, his move is not to make me worship minister, nor to let you take over Jishou, but to create a sense of momentum. Don't panic, I am not those who are unprepared to be plotted by him."

In the agarwood pavilion beside the dragon pool of Xingqing Palace, Li Longji was playing chess with Yu Nu thoughtfully. After he set a black piece, he saw Yu Nu smiled slightly, picked up a white piece and put it on the chessboard, and then sang a big dragon in his hinterland. He couldn't help but frown. But there was a sound of a true gentleman who didn't regret chess. He could only watch himself in an instant lose. At this time, Yu Nu let out a long sigh, stood up, picked up a cat with a fur color from Zhang Yunrong, and then said lazily: "Since Your Majesty is not on this, and he has lost repeatedly, it's boring for me to win. I'm going to go back to Taizhenguan."

"Wait," Li Longji called out, and saw Yu Nu turning around holding the white cat. The pure white fur color of the white cat and her white skin color were confused for a while. He couldn't help but look at it carefully for a moment, and then said with a smile, "Last time your master came into the palace and said that you were going back less and less. You will leave the palace to see her in the past two days."

"I miss Master too, but I am busy rehearsing the song of the colorful clothes dedicated to Empress Dowager Zhaocheng. It took too much time to leave the palace. I will pick her up in two days. Your Majesty will not disagree, right?" Yu Nu raised her brows and saw Li Longji nodding helplessly. She smiled and looked at the servants on both sides and said, "Yun Rong, Xiaoman, go to the Liyuan with me. I am not as leisurely as Your Majesty. If you can't make a good dance, others will question my filial piety for serving Empress Dowager Zhaocheng."

Seeing that Yu Nu left with Zhang Yunrong and Xie Xiaoman, Li Longji was immediately angry and funny. Gao Lishi, who was standing beside him, grinned. Seeing Li Longji look up at him, he asked with a smile on his face: "Do you all follow Taizhen's wife to the Liyuan or go back to Xingqing Hall?"

"Old man, you are getting bolder." Although he shouted, it was obvious that Gao Lishi was still fine, Li Longji couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Since he tried his best to get people into the palace through Gao Lishi, of course he didn't want Yu Nu to run out of the palace without any trouble, even if Princess Yu Zhen was the legitimate sister of his mother and his compatriots. As for Du Shiyi, a man, he naturally did not want him to visit Yu Nu in the name of his former master and apprentice. Since Yu Nu took the initiative to express that he would not leave the palace, he felt much more relieved.

If it weren't for the word "filial piety" to my mother Zhaocheng, and the sayings of ghosts and gods that he has gradually believed in now, why wouldn't he have done it yet?
