    ?

    Du Qi took the letter and quickly opened it to check.  At the beginning of Du Ruhui's letter, he asked about Du Qi's development in Yizhou, and asked Du Qi to pay attention to safety, and then mentioned the concerns of his mother, Mrs. Zheng, and Mrs. Zheng asked whether Li Yanyun's two daughters were pregnant.

    ?After some prelude and homely chatter, Du Ruhui praised Du Qi's actions in Suzhou, and also praised Du Qi for winning Izhou in a short period of time and establishing a foothold in Izhou.

    After this paragraph of family talk ended, Du Ruhui changed the subject and talked about the imperial court's plan to establish the Anxi Protectorate.

    Su Dingfang's news is too little.

    Du Qi didn't know the situation.

    Only in Du Ruhui's letter did he fully explain the situation.  The proposal of the Anxi Protectorate's Mansion was not the emperor's instigation at first, it was put forward by Changsun Wuji, and it specifically governs the area outside Guazhou.

    In fact, it was aimed at Du Qi.

    Because after Du Qi gained a foothold in Yizhou, Changsun Wuji was worried that Du Qi would grow up and form a trend that could not be lost, so he wanted to set up the Anxi Protectorate.  After this proposal was put forward, Du Ruhui did not express his position because it involved his son, and Fang Xuanling firmly opposed it.

    Fang Xuanling's point of view is that the establishment of the Anxi Protectorate by the imperial court is likely to give people the feeling of going back on their promises, which is not conducive to Li Shimin's prestige.  Even Wei Zheng spoke out against it, disapproving of the establishment of the Anxi Protectorate.

    After arguing about this matter for a period of time, Changsun Wuji finally persuaded Li Shimin to set up the Anxi Protectorate in the Western Regions with the command of the land of the king of all lands and the ministers of the king of the land.

    At this point, another controversy has arisen, that is, the candidates for the officials of the Anxi Protectorate.

    This has become a bone of contention.

    Throughout the imperial court, there were endless disputes over the candidates to be in charge of the Anxi Protectorate Mansion. All parties put forward candidates and suggestions, but they were at odds with each other, and it was always difficult to reach a unified opinion.

    When everyone was arguing, there was a news from the palace, saying that Li Yuan personally approached Li Shimin, and finally decided that Du Qi would be the first military governor of Anxi Protectorate.

    Since then, the matter that the DPRK and China have been arguing about has finally been decided.

    There is no more discussion.

    Du Ruhui explained this matter in his letter, and said that the court will issue an order in the near future.  At that time, the order for him, King Pingxi, to concurrently serve as the Jiedu Envoy of the Protectorate of Anxi will come down.

    Du Qi frowned after reading it.

    This matter was assisted by Li Yuan, so he was the candidate for the Anxi Protectorate, but what if Li Yuan wasn't there?  Moreover, what Du Qi was concerned about was not this time he was appointed as the governor of the Anxi Protectorate, but the description of the first appointment.

    With the first term, there will naturally be a second term.

    It means that the territory that Du Qi laid down in the Western Regions was not controlled by Du Qi in the end, but was controlled by the Jiedushi of the Anxi Protectorate of the imperial court, and it was still under the control of Datang.

    At the beginning, Li Shimin promised that as long as the area west of Guazhou and Shazhou was conquered by Du Qi, it would belong to Du Qi himself, but now he created the Anxi Protectorate.

    Even if this was not proposed by Li Shimin, but by Changsun Wuji, at least there is a conflict with Li Shimin's previous promise.

    This is the king.

    This is the emperor.

    What is considered is the overall situation.

    Even if the candidate for the Jiedushi of the Anxi Protectorate's Mansion was Du Qi.  But Du Qi's arrangement here is to speculate on the future layout of the imperial court.

    However, for Du Qi, since he served as the first governor of the Anxi Protectorate, he still has at least a few years to operate.  A few years is enough for Du Qi to manage the Western Regions like an iron bucket.

    Even if there is a conflict with Datang at that time, Du Qi is not afraid.  And for Du Qi, he guessed that there would be a battle with Li Shimin in the future.  Because only a real contest on the battlefield will let Li Shimin know Du Qi's strength.

    Li Shimin will really pay attention to it.

    Status, in fact, is all punched out.

    This is what Du Qi thinks.

    However, Du Qi is not in a hurry, because he has enough time to operate right now.  Du Qi didn't get entangled in this matter, there must be a way for the car to reach the mountain, and when it's time to make a move, it's time to make a move.

    At noon, Du Qi had lunch and rested for half an hour before the team set off for Yizhou.

    Du Qi used troops against Tubo this time, or it was not considered a military use. He only sent Yi Fusheng there, and he earned two thousand horses and ten thousand catties of highland barley wine. No matter how you think about it, it was a good deal.

    ? Now it is entering the cold winter, the weather is getting colder, and there are wind and snow again, hurry up?The speed was a bit slower. In mid-November, the group returned to Yiwu County, Yizhou.

    The army returned triumphantly, and Liu Zhengxi and his party all went out of the city to meet them.

    Following the entry of the army, all the horses and drinks were taken away, and Du Qi and his party went straight back to the palace.

    The host and guest are seated.

    Du Qi looked around at the crowd, looked at Liu Zhengxi, and asked, "Liu Changshi, what happened in the palace recently?"

    Liu Zhengxi said: "Reporting to Your Highness, many things have been dealt with. However, there is one very important matter. The imperial court had a decree to come to the palace two days ago, and ordered His Highness to be the first Anxi Protector's Mansion Jiedu Envoy, in charge of Yizhou and the west.  military affairs."

    Du Qi nodded and said: "I was on the way before, and I have received news about this matter."

    Liu Zhengxi continued: "Your Highness, after I got the news, I discussed with Director Guo and others, and I think this matter is not good news for us."

    Everyone here is Du Qi's direct descendant.

    There are no people from the imperial court, so Liu Zhengxi has no scruples when speaking, and speaks directly.

    Du Qidao: "Mr. Liu, but it's okay to say."

    Liu Zhengxi looked solemn, and continued: "The reason why I say this is not good news is because the imperial court has arranged for His Highness to be the first Jiedu Envoy of the Anxi Protectorate, and this arrangement cannot be permanent."

    "The prince on His Highness is conferred by the imperial court, and it can only be His Highness. However, for the post of Jiedushi of the Protectorate of Anxi, another person may be arranged to take over at any time."

    "So we agree that this is the beginning of the imperial court's layout of the Western Regions, and at least one move must be arranged in the Western Regions. At that time, the imperial court will interfere in the area west of Guazhou and Shazhou, and everything will be logical."

    "After all, when the time comes when the imperial court assigns His Highness to take up the remaining official positions, His Highness can be transferred away. Since the official position of Anxi Protectorate has appeared, it will not be abolished, and there will definitely be other people to take up the post."

    Liu Zhengxi said: "This inference is the result of our discussion."

    Du Qi said with a smile: "Your concerns coincide with this king's. This king also thinks in the same way."

    A gleam flashed across Liu Zhengxi's eyes, and he said: "Your Highness, it is better to take the initiative and establish the country directly in Guazhou. In this way, His Highness will occupy this place justifiably."

    Guo Xiaozheng said: "Your Highness, the Emperor Tang is not benevolent, so we can't blame us for being unrighteous. The Emperor Tang set up the Anxi Protectorate, which is clearly aimed at His Highness, in order to control the territory of the Western Regions in the future."

    "The emperor promised earlier that the territory conquered by His Highness belongs to His Highness."

    "It hasn't been a long time since these words have passed, and now they have changed, which shows that the Emperor Tang is not trustworthy. The humble official agrees with Master Liu's suggestion, and we will directly establish the country."

    Guo Xiaozheng said: "With our current strength and the new weapons we possess, we still have a geographical advantage in this area of ??the Western Regions, which is enough to compete with the Tang army."

    The rest of the people spoke one after another.

    They all hope that Du Qi will directly establish the country.

    For everyone, this is not a bad thing.  The reason is simple, the more powerful Du Qi is, the more benefits they will get.  Once Du Qi truly establishes a country, it will be the work of the dragon.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
