    ?

    Not long after Du Qi left, another eunuch came in to report, and Pei Ji, Xiao Yu, Chen Shuda, and Feng Deyi entered the palace together, and Li Yuan immediately let these four people in.

    Pei Ji, Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda are all Li Yuan's confidantes.

    All of them are veterans.

    Especially Pei Ji, who is highly regarded by Li Yuan and can be called Li Yuan's number one confidant.  The four entered the Ganlu Hall hand in hand, saluted Li Yuan, and then took their seats.

    Li Yuan looked around at everyone, looked away, and said in a deep voice: "In the morning, I kept talking about how to deal with the Turkic people, and I also mentioned a general direction. You have thought about it, and now, let's talk about your opinions."

    Feng Deyi sat at the bottom and took the lead to say: "Your Majesty, I suggest sending a mission to the Turks to appease the Turks. After all, the King of Qin is away fighting, and the court does not have enough strength to resist the Turks. At present, the only way to send a mission is to go to the Turks.  make."

    Everyone knows this suggestion.

    Chen Shuda also nodded, and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister also agrees."

    Chen Shuda is the half-brother of Chen Shubao, the former Empress Chen, who was born in the royal family.  After Nanchen was overthrown by the Sui Dynasty, Chen Shuda entered the Sui Dynasty as an official.  When Li Yuan raised troops in Jinyang, Chen Shuda returned to Li Yuan.

    After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, he was appointed as a servant by Li Yuan.

    The waiter is a high-ranking official under the sect.

    During the Tang Dynasty, there was no special post of prime minister, and the three high-ranking officials were called prime ministers together.

    The three provinces are divided into Menxia Province, Zhongshu Province and Shangshu Province. Among them, the chief of Menxia Province is Shizhong, the chief of Zhongshu Province is Zhongshu Ling, and the chief of Shangshu Province is Shangshu Ling.

    The chiefs of the three provinces are all prime ministers.

    ?In fact, in the Tang Dynasty, because Li Shimin had served as the Minister of the Book, after Li Shimin succeeded to the throne, no one has served as the Minister of the Book since then.

    However, in the late Tang Dynasty, there were many ministers and servants, and to become a powerful prime minister, he had to add other titles.

    Today's Chen Shuda is like a prime minister.

    His power is great.

    After Chen Shuda spoke, Xiao Yu stroked his beard and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister also agrees."

    Xiao Yu served as Minister of the Household Department.

    This is tantamount to holding Datang's purse and being the most important courtier.

    After listening to Feng Deyi, Chen Shuda and Xiao Yu's words, Li Yuan finally landed on Pei Ji and asked, "Pei Qing, what do you think about it?"

    Pei Ji was in the court, serving as the right servant of Shangshu, and had great power.

    He is highly regarded by Li Yuan.

    Pei Ji is now nearly fifty years old.  Although he is not yet fifty years old, in fact, due to a lot of hard work, his hair has already turned gray, and he looks quite old.

    Pei Ji smiled slightly, and then said: "Your Majesty, I agree with Feng Shilang's suggestion. However, I think that simply sending officials to Turkic is definitely not enough."

    "Besides, we have to send an order to King Dingxiang to organize troops in Daizhou. Once the Turks are killed, we must go all out to fight the Turks and let the Turks know how powerful they are. Otherwise, simply send officials out  It is useless to make the Turks, and it cannot play a role in deterring the Turks."

    Pei Ji said: "In order to stabilize the situation in the border county, we must both win over and beat. Only by working together can it be effective."

    After hearing this, Li Yuan nodded in approval.

    Pei Ji's suggestion, similar to Du Qi's, is to prepare for war on the one hand, and to win over the Turkic people on the other, so as to stabilize the situation and prevent the situation from getting out of control.

    After pondering for a moment, Li Yuan said in a deep voice: "Pei Qing's suggestion is good, so we will arrange according to Pei Qing's suggestion. But when it comes to sending envoys, who is the most suitable to send?"

    Everyone heard the words, but temporarily remained silent.

    Although Feng Deyi already had an idea in his heart, in fact, he was just the servant of Zhongshu, so for the time being, he didn't jump out to speak in a hurry.

    Li Yuan's eyes turned, and then fell on Feng Deyi again, and said: "Feng Qing, do you have someone to choose?"

    After Feng Deyi was pointed out, he was no longer polite, and said directly: "Your Majesty, regarding the candidate for the Turkic envoy, I think that you need to have both civil and military skills. You must know military affairs, be able to deter the Turks, and have literary talent.  Experience the brilliant writing style of Tang Dynasty."

    After a pause, Feng Deyi said: "So my suggestion is to use General Zuo Xiaowei, Sun Shunde as the official envoy, because General Changsun is a person who came out of the battlefield. With General Changsun around, he will definitely be able to command  Turkic people dare not be presumptuous."

    Chen Shuda glanced at Feng Deyi, and said: "What Feng Shilang said just now talked about generals, but civil servants are still needed.  But who is the most suitable civil servant to go?  "

    Everyone looked at Feng Deyi, waiting for Feng Deyi to speak.

    Feng Deyi paused for a while, and then said: "Your Majesty, I think Du Qi is the most suitable."

    Boom!  !

    Like a thunderclap, it sounded in the hall.

    Everyone was shocked.

    One by one they looked at Feng Deyi, their eyes seemed to say, are you Feng Deyi crazy?  It is shocking that a child of twelve or thirteen years old is allowed to serve as an envoy of the Tang Dynasty.

    Even Li Yuan was shocked by this suggestion, making the outside crisp and the inside tender.

    Xiao Yu glanced at Feng Deyi.

    However, Xiao Yu didn't speak either.

    Li Yuan took a deep breath, suppressed the surprise in his heart, and said, "Feng Qing, how did you think of asking Du Qi to serve as an envoy? Do you know that he is only twelve or thirteen years old, very young."

    Such a suggestion is extremely bold.

    What's more, beyond everyone's expectations, no one expected that Feng Deyi pushed Du Qi out.

    Feng Deyi smiled slightly, and explained calmly: "Your Majesty, if you want to talk about literary talents, I am afraid that even if there are so many people in the court, there may not be many people who can compare with Du Qi. Of course, this is not to mention the classics.  of."

    "If you quote from the classics, the understanding of the classics, there are great Confucianists, and Du Qi can't hold a candle to him. However, Du Qi is doing his part for a person with outstanding literary talent."

    "Du Qi's poems are truly unique."

    "It is not an exaggeration to say that Du Qi is a child prodigy. Such a Shentong, as an envoy to Turkic, will certainly allow Turkic people to see the brilliant writing style of Tang Dynasty."

    "Let the Turkic people know the background of Datang."

    Feng Deyi continued: "The most important thing is that I heard the marketer's description of Du Qi. Du Qi is not only eloquent, but also extremely intelligent. Moreover, Du Qi is also the seventh-rank Xuanyi Lang granted by His Majesty.  , there are officials there. It is completely reasonable to arrange for Du Qi to go as the deputy envoy."

    After Li Yuan heard it, the expression on his face gradually relaxed.

    There is some truth to what Feng Deyi said.

    However, Li Yuan didn't make a decision right away, so he asked, "What do you think?"

    Chen Shuda objected: "Your Majesty, although Feng Deyi's words are reasonable, Du Qi is too young after all, only twelve or thirteen years old."

    "Sending a twelve or thirteen-year-old child as an envoy will make people think that there is no one in Tang Dynasty!"

    "What's more, Du Qi is too young. He has been in Chang'an City all his life and has never seen the real world. Let him go as an envoy. In case he sees the big scene outside, he will lose his mind if he is frightened, or even be caught by the scene of the frontier fortress."  It will affect Du Qi's ingenuity, and make a quick-witted child lose his wisdom from now on, I'm afraid it will be bad."

    Chen Shuda raised his concerns.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
