Li Shimin was very excited.
At this time, not only was there a piece of calligraphy in his arms, but he was also holding two jars of wine in his hands. He couldn't hide the smile on his face at all.
Behind him, Wei Zheng and the other two were also doing the same.
This time, Wei Zheng was very emotional.
The few days of waiting were really worth it!
Otherwise, how could he see the calligraphy in his arms, the map, and the wine in his hands?
However, he began to feel puzzled.
This was the first time. Before that, Zhangsun Wuji and Cheng Yaojin had accompanied the Emperor for so many times. How many benefits did they get?
Well!
Wei Zheng smacked his lips and stared at the wine in Cheng Yaojin and Zhangsun Wuji's arms. An imperceptible scheme flashed in his eyes!
From tomorrow onwards, I, Old Wei, will eat the rich!
If you don't give me a glass of the wine that I have collected before, I will show you the power of Old Wei!
Cheng Yaojin, who was holding the wine and smiling happily, felt a chill on his back for no reason.
He hurriedly turned around, only to see Wei Zheng's evil smile. He was so scared that he trembled and held the wine tighter in his hands.
"Old Wei, your eyes are a little scary!"
"Old Cheng, I remember that last month, because of drinking, you seemed to …"
Seeing that Wei Zheng immediately exposed his shortcomings.
Cheng Yaojin was furious.
He hurriedly jumped back.
Li Shimin was also interested. He turned around and asked, "Doesn't he often drink? Why, was he beaten by sister-in-law? Or did she chase him out of the brothel with a knife? "
Hearing that.
Everyone broke out in a cold sweat.
Damn.
Even the Emperor knew about this?
Seeing that the matter was exposed, Cheng Yaojin only wanted to find a hole to hide in.
"Emperor … Second Brother, how can this be! They don't know me, but don't you know me? This is not a thing! "
"Hahaha …!"
Hearing that, everyone couldn't help laughing.
Taiji Palace.
In the Imperial Study.
At this time, Li Shimin called Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and a few others over. Together with Zhangsun Wuji, Wei Zheng, and Cheng Yaojin, they gathered around the desk and carefully studied the map.
The more they looked, the more shocked they became. ,
"Your Majesty, this map … how did you get it?"
Fang Xuanling asked almost at the same time as Li Jing.
Li Shimin smiled mysteriously. "You don't have to worry about that. What do you think of this map?"
"How is it?!"
"Your Majesty, what are you saying!"
Du Ruhui excitedly pushed Fang Xuanling away. He was so excited that even his white beard was trembling.
"Look! This is a brand new map of the Western Regions that we have never seen before! Although the drawing is very rough, the general layout and the mountains and rivers are marked out. In fact, take a look at this! "
Li Jing excitedly pointed at a place beside Dashi Country and said, "Look here, this is Tocharia! Even I have only heard of this country, but I have never seen it before. May I know who created this map? "
Tocharia was a small country.
Moreover, it was a country sandwiched between Dashi Country and the Western Turks. Very few people knew about this country!
However, although this country was small, it was extremely important in terms of military status!
This was the reason why this country existed until now!
"Your Majesty! I have a presumptuous request! "
Thinking of this, Li Jing got down on one knee and said excitedly, "At this time, according to this map, I am willing to lead 100,000 soldiers and completely open the western gate of the Western Regions! Let Tubo and the Western Turks have no advantage over the Tang Dynasty! "
Hearing this.
Li Shimin was shocked.
He even raised his hand.
However, after thinking about it, he slowly put down his hand.
"I know what you are thinking! But now is not the time! We have to wait for the drought and the locust plague to end! "
"Your Majesty …"
Li Jing wanted to say something. .
Wei Zheng interrupted him and said, "General Li! Let's talk about this later! You know the situation of the Tang Dynasty now. If we really go to war, it will only put the Tang Dynasty in a difficult situation! Now that we have this map, it won't be too late for us to send troops after this year! "
"Your Majesty! That … that thing is done! "
At this time.
A little eunuch reported in fear.
Li Shimin heard this and waved his hand, "Bring it up!"
"Come, come, come. Everyone, let's not talk about this. How about we talk while eating?"
"This time, I will treat you to something good! Someone come! Bring up ten jars of my imperial wine. I want to get drunk tonight! "
Hearing this.
Wei Zheng and the others were eager to give it a try. .
However, Fang Xuanling and the others were stunned.
What was going on?
This was …
But while everyone was puzzled and expectant, the palace maids came slowly with exquisite white jade plates. However, the palace maids seemed to be extremely well-behaved at this time. Their heads were far away, as if they couldn't even smell the things on the plates!
What was going on?
Fang Xuanling and the others were even more confused.
They saw the palace maids set up a square table in the middle of the Imperial Study according to the layout of a small tavern. Then, they put a few sets of bowls and chopsticks on the table and opened the lids of the white jade plates. .
The next moment, the grilled golden things about the size of a thumb were lying quietly on the plates. Waves of tempting fragrance instantly rushed to their faces!
Li Shimin saw this and couldn't help but want to eat.
"Come, come, come. Don't be shy. This is a rare good thing!"
"…"
