Chapter 200 Your Majesty has taken a high chess move!
"Thirty thousand cavalry?"
Li Longji was startled and quite surprised, but he quickly nodded.
The current Yibo Tower does require 30,000 cavalry to suppress it, and this is a conservative estimate.
"However, there is not enough money left in the household department right now, so I'm afraid it will be difficult to allocate money to Ruyang!"
After pacing for a long time, Li Longji said again.
A few years ago, the treasury of the Tang Dynasty was still very full, but in recent years many palaces have been built, especially the Lishan Palace, which consumed a huge amount of silver. The treasury now only has one million taels of silver left, and it is impossible to allocate all of it to Ruyang.
"Your Majesty, Li Mo is a quick-thinking person. In my humble opinion, as long as you give him enough war horses and let him figure out the rest, he should be able to do it!"
The emperor was worried, but the bad handsome man didn't think it was a problem.
"Enough war horses?"
"Your Majesty, Li Mo is still working as an undercover agent in Yibo Building. At that time, we can ask him to find a way from Yibo Building. It would be a good idea to use the money from Yibo Building to support our soldiers."
"Using their money to raise our soldiers?"
Li Longji's eyes lit up.
He almost forgot about this, that's right! As long as Li Mo uses his brain to get some money from Yibo Building, it won't be a problem.
"Then it's settled! You tell Li Mo secretly!"
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
........
The moon sets, the sun rises,
In a blink of an eye, it was the morning court, with hundreds of civil and military officials lined up on both sides, the emperor sitting on the dragon throne, and the atmosphere was a little strange.
Without it,
At this moment, all the people in the court were thinking about were the big competition with Tubo yesterday.
Especially some ministers, like those warriors, wanted to know the emperor's attitude towards Yi Bo Lou and whether he would eventually reward Yi Bo Lou.
"Dear gentlemen, I had a dream last night!"
Seeing that the ministers had nothing to say, Li Longji waved his sleeves and spoke calmly.
"I wonder what your Majesty is dreaming about?"
Upon hearing this, some civil servants immediately stood up.
This civil servant is in charge of Qin Tian Supervisor, and his main responsibility is illusory things.
"I dreamed last night that a black evil spirit rose into the sky in Dongdu. It disturbed the people and caused chaos everywhere. Later, a descendant of the Li family came out and finally wiped out the evil spirit. Is there any explanation for this dream?
?”
Li Longji leaned forward.
"Dongdu? Black evil spirit?"
In the main hall, when the leaders Yang Guozhong and You Xiang heard this sentence, they instantly understood.
The so-called black evil must be referring to Yibo Tower.
"Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty!"
Here, after thinking for a moment, the head of Qintian Supervisor said hurriedly.
"Oh? Why are you so happy?"
Li Longji deliberately pretended not to know.
In fact, he compiled this dream casually in order to silence the civil and military ministers.
"Your Majesty, I recall that Emperor Taizong also had a dream. A wise minister appeared in the dream, and it was the famous marshal Xue Rengui. Your Majesty's dream is similar to Emperor Taizong's dream, so only the humble ministers can congratulate you.
."
The head of Qintian Supervisor said again.
"Well, that makes some sense."
Li Longji couldn't help but take another look at the principal, but he didn't expect that the dream he made up at random actually made him an allusion.
"But who is my wise minister Ying Meng? Could it be Xue Song?"
"Your Majesty, it should not be that Xue Song... As far as Wei Chen knows, there is indeed a disciple of the royal family in Luoyang."
"who?"
"Your Majesty, this person is Li Mo who went to Ruyang to serve as the county magistrate."
"Li Mo? So, he is my Ying Mengxianchen?"
Li Longji was overjoyed.
It seems that the head of Qintian Supervisor is not confused, and this sentence is exactly what he wanted.
"Your Majesty, this is how it should be!"
"Well, since he is my worthy minister of Yingmeng, I will naturally use him as highly as Emperor Taizong to pass on the decree... I have appointed Li Mo as the second-grade Ruyang Jiedu Envoy, with the title of Thousand Households, to command you.
The military and political affairs of Yangyi led 30,000 troops and allocated 20,000 war horses!"
At this point, Li Longji did not hesitate any longer and immediately conveyed the order.
"Ah? The imperial envoy was granted the title of Jiedushi..."
However, as soon as these words came out, Jinluan Palace instantly became a little noisy.
Many ministers had expressions of surprise on their faces.
There are currently ten Jiedu envoys in the Tang Dynasty, all of whom occupy important positions. Now, suddenly there is an additional county magistrate who has risen directly from the sixth rank of county magistrate.
Isn't it a little too hasty?
As long as Li Mo becomes the Jiedushi envoy, Ruyang will become its own place and will no longer be under the jurisdiction of Luoyang, the eastern capital.
The imperial court was equivalent to gaining another vassal territory.
"Do you gentlemen have anything to say?"
Seeing this, Li Longji's voice deepened and he said.
"this....."
All the ministers, you look at me and I look at you. Although I think this matter is a bit hasty and hasty, how can I dissuade it?
After all, Emperor Taizong endorsed this matter.
To deny this matter would be equivalent to denying Emperor Taizong.
at last,
All the ministers looked at Yang Guozhong and the right prime minister.
However, at this moment, Yang Guozhong and the Right Prime Minister looked at each other with their eyes looking at their noses, and their noses looking at their mouths, with no intention of speaking.
"Okay, since you all have nothing to say, this matter is settled! The Ministry of War will transport war horses to Ruyang from now on, without any mistakes."
After a while, Li Longji said again.
"yes!"
.......
Half an hour later, the court meeting ended,
A group of civil and military ministers left the Jinluan Palace one after another, and many ministers hurriedly caught up with Yang Guozhong.
"Sir, your Majesty's move is..."
These ministers were all members of Yang Guozhong, and they were very puzzled by the emperor's move, and they didn't understand why Yang Guozhong didn't try to dissuade him.
As a powerful minister, having one more Jiedushi is equivalent to having one more uncontrollable power.
Not bad as expected,
From now on, all the officials in the court, big and small, will give Li Mo some face.
"Your Majesty made a great move!"
Turning his head and seeing his own people surrounding him, Yang Guozhong touched his beard and said in a deep voice.
As a powerful minister, Li Longji understood what the emperor meant the moment he said he wanted to make Ruyang Jiedushi.
If we really set up Jiedushi in Ruyang, it would be equivalent to giving Yibo Tower a deterrent.
It’s also a good thing for Tianyin Sect!
More importantly, Li Mo is also related to the Tianyin Sect. How could he stop such a good thing?
"Gaoqi? This..."
"You are stupid! Yi Bo Lou's limelight this time can no longer be measured by the power of the world. Once Li Mo becomes the Jiedushi and suppresses the Eastern Capital, will Yi Bo Lou still dare to be so presumptuous? Even if His Majesty did not give Yi Bo Lou this time
With the reward, Yi Bo Lou can only swallow his anger."
Yang Guozhong glanced at everyone.
"Oh, so that's what it is!"
At this point, many ministers suddenly realized.
"Well, that's it for now. From now on, we should pay more attention to Shuofang Jiedushi Li Guangbi. He has led an army of 150,000 into Longxi County and will soon take over the Tubo state."
After a pause, Yang Guoxiao said again.
Compared with Li Mo, the separation between Li Guangbi and Guo Ziyi is the most important thing.
"Um!"
.........
Little did they know that at the moment when the emperor’s decree was handed down,
Ruyang,
Li Mo, who was sitting in the lobby, had already received the message from the bad guy first.
