Li Shimin pondered for a while, and then said: "Yes, it is time to send troops. Although everything is on the right track, Jieli has been isolated. Whether it is Xue Yantuo, Huihe and other tribes, or even Tuli Khan, Do the same with Jieli Khan."
"This is the best chance to deal with Xieli."
"Of course, given that the situation has just stabilized, it is not suitable for a large-scale dispatch of troops, and I cannot leave Chang'an either. Therefore, this time, I will lead the troops to the battle, with Li Jing as the general manager of the march, and lead the army to attack the Turks."
"The number of troops sent will not be too many, only 30,000. I will not ask about the specific arrangement, and I will authorize Li Jing to make the decision. This direction has already been finalized."
"I called you here now because I hope that you, my boy, will also go out with the army, responsible for escorting food and grass, and serving as military advisers."
Li Shimin said: "Are you willing?"
When Du Qi heard this, he knew that the matter had been finalized, and he was just asking for his opinion.
Du Qidao: "Your Majesty, I am willing to go."
Although there are many things to deal with at the moment, for Du Qi, the expedition is actually not bad.
Li Shimin said: "Okay, the matter is settled like this."
Du Qi asked: "When will you go out?"
Li Shimin said: "Now we still need to raise food and grass, and call the government soldiers from all over the country. So for the time being, we need to wait for a short time. In early March, we will officially send troops to the north."
Du Qidao: "I understand."
Li Shimin made many arrangements, and all the civil servants and generals left separately.
Du Ruhui has government affairs on his body, and he has to deal with government affairs in the palace, so Du Ruhui and others went to the office where they work, while Du Qi left the palace alone.
He returned to Du's house and was busy with his own affairs. After all, he was about to leave Chang'an for a long journey, so he needed to arrange all the things in the industry properly to avoid troubles after Du Qi left.
In the evening, Liu Jian entered and reported: "Young master, my master invites you to go."
"knew."
Du Qi replied.
Du Qi went to the study, saw Du Ruhui, sat down and said: "Father called me here, but what's the matter?"
Du Ruhui said: "There is indeed something."
Du Qi saw Du Ruhui's appearance and asked, "Could it be something embarrassing?"
Du Ruhui has always been extremely nimble, he does things extremely quickly, and there is no procrastination. Now, it is a look of hesitation, obviously there is something.
Du Ruhui took a deep breath and said, "Forget it, I won't go around in circles as a father. Before you entered the palace today, His Majesty and we agreed to send troops to attack the Turks, but the court's focus is still on resuming production and developing all regions."
"In fact, the imperial court has limited taxation and insufficient money, and they are all discussing military pay."
"At that time, everyone was in a dilemma. There was no solution. In the end, our eyes fell on Weifu. Weifu was helpless here. It could only be a matter of raising money. It was said that the military pay for the imperial court was up to me. The Du family is in charge."
"Let me convince you."
Du Ruhui said solemnly: "The reason why I came to you for my father is because of the military salary."
Du Qi's complexion changed slightly upon hearing this.
Unexpectedly, the imperial court has already made up his mind. Does that mean he's already fat?
Du Qi's nature is that I can give it to you voluntarily, but if you are determined to let me pay, then it is a bit inappropriate, at least Du Qi is upset.
The emperor asked for money, just say so.
Going around in circles is no fun.
Before Du Qi could speak, Du Ruhui continued: "Erlang, our Du family has money, and the imperial court urgently needs it. So for this matter, see if you can transfer some money from the Du family to sponsor the imperial court."
Du Qi took a deep breath, stared at Du Ruhui and said, "Father, did the strong wind blow down our family's money?"
Du Ruhui was at a loss for words when he heard that.
He knew it was inappropriate to ask Du Qi to pay. But the matter of going out to crusade against the Turks had already been decided, and it was impossible to change it, so Du Ruhui could only grit his teeth and agree. But what his son said made Du Ruhui quite helpless.
On the one hand is the imperial court, on the other hand is the family, the imperial court cannot refuse, and he feels guilty towards his son.
Seeing Du Ruhui's appearance, Du Qi sighed and said, "Forget it, father doesn't have to be in trouble. I agree to this matter. How much will the court want this time?"
Du Ruhui said: "One million guan!"
Du Qidao: "Okay, one million guan, I will transfer it from the bank and have it handed over to my father directly. At that time, my father will directly escort it to the palace for business."
Du Ruhui saw that his son agreed, but his son always had his own ideas, so Du Ruhui said: "Erlang, in fact, His Majesty didn't open his mouth about this matter. The officials in the court and the central government don't speak, so he said it because of his father."
Du Qidao: "Father, there is no need to talk about this between you and me. What's more, when His Majesty mentions the expedition, he should consider the issue of money. How can he not think about it at all."
"If your majesty is short of money, just come to me directly and tell me in front of me, that's all."
"After all, Your Majesty treats our Du family well. But it's not appropriate to cut the flesh with a soft knife. In short, I agree with this matter, but I will make arrangements later."
Du Qi didn't have much awe of imperial power.
His original idea was actually very simple. Li Shimin was considered a good monarch, and Du Ruhui supported him at home. He lived a leisurely life in the Tang Dynasty, which was very good.
So Du Qi is willing to be a dandy.
Willing not to be an official.
Now that what happened today, it can be seen that after Li Shimin became the emperor from the king of Qin, even if Li Shimin still wanted face, he was good to Du Qi, but Li Shimin was the emperor after all.
An emperor must deal with things rationally and weigh the pros and cons.
Put the country first.
The rest is secondary.
This is a change for Li Shimin, and it is also a normal change.
Du Qi can understand, but it doesn't mean that Du Qi will be willing to bear the impact of this change on himself, so Du Qi has an idea in his heart, he is unwilling to put everything in Chang'an of Tang Dynasty.
When Du Ruhui heard Du Qi's words, his eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice, "Erlang, what arrangements are you going to make?"
Du Qi said: "In the Tang Dynasty, the world is peaceful, and the people are finally living a good life. In the country, there must be no development and future. Even if I go into an official career and reach the position of my father, I have already reached the top of the mountain. No matter what , After all, it¡¯s not up to me. So in my mind, I will start to go to the Western Regions, and go out of the Western Regions to create a world.¡±
"What?"
Du Ruhui had a look of surprise on his face.
He was really shocked.
His own son, because of money, actually wanted to develop in the Western Regions.
Du Ruhui took a deep breath, suppressed his inner thoughts, and said in a deep voice: "Erlang, you should know. Once you go to the Western Regions, you will be unfamiliar with people there, and you will be far away from your homeland."
Du Qidao: "My hometown is where my heart is at ease. Here in Chang'an, after all, it is not solid enough. Therefore, I have to develop in the Western Regions. This is my idea."
Du Ruhui's expression was rather solemn.
He was a little reluctant.
I don't want Du Qi to leave.
Du Qi smiled and said: "Father, this matter is temporarily settled. Right now, I have to go out with the army to fight against the Turks in the north. So it's still early, so don't worry about it."
