Chapter 1099 Chang'an

Chang'an, on the banks of the Weishui River.

The cold river is lonely snow, fishing alone in a straw raincoat.

The light cavalry came from afar and walked on the snow, disturbing this rare tranquility.

"Sanlang, the hundred cavalry are here."

Qin Lang nodded and put away the fishing rod. Fishing in ice in the snow was a pleasure, but it still couldn't escape disturbance. The Baiqisi arrived and occupied key positions everywhere. After a while, Li Shimin came.

The emperor is wearing a fur coat today, riding a five-colored horse with a horse's hair trimmed into five petals. Behind him are the young King of Jin Li Zhi in brocade clothes, and several old men, but Xiao Yu, Li Jing, Yu Wen Shi and Yang Gongren.

"Huailiang is really intriguing." Li Shimin smiled from afar.

"You have nothing to do when you are free." Qin Lang stepped forward to greet him.

"I'm fine, there's no need for big gifts here, how about the gains?" Li Shimin asked with a smile.

Lifting a net bag from an ice hole, there are a lot of fish inside, including fat carp with whiskers, crucian carp with palms, slender white fish, also called mullet fish, and scalp loach fish without scales, and even shrimp.

"You've caught all this?" Li Shimin likes hunting and rides horses to chase prey. He doesn't like fishing very much, but he can also fish occasionally, and even feels that his level is pretty good. But when he sees Qin Lang's harvest, he can't help but be surprised.

"Well, after the Wei River is frozen in winter, fish are actually better fishing." Qin Lang said the truth. Fishing has been a kind of elegant for thousands of years, but no matter what rod or bait is used, fishing has some tricks. After mastering these tricks, it is even common in ancient and modern times.

Different waters, different terrain, different fish, use different rods and baits, plus patience, is enough.

The place Qin Lang chose is a good return bay. The water is quite deep but slow. There are many fish in this kind of return bay. It is easy to harvest when fishing for ice caves in winter.

Li Shimin simply sat directly on the small horse note in front of an ice cave, lifted up a fishing rod and started fishing.

"You guys come and try it too."

Li Jing sat down with a smile, and each picked an ice hole to lower the rod.

Qin Lang chose a good location in advance and had made several nests in advance, so the fish hole was very good. Although Li Shimin did not come to fish in since he was half-hearted and chatted while fishing, he also caught fish one after another, which made the emperor very happy.

Especially, I caught a red carp.

The emperor was very happy to carry the red carp, and even caught the gesture on his chest, allowing the followers to draw the scattered cavalry attendant who was good at painting among the attendants, Yan Lide, the master craftsman.

"This red carp grows so good." Li Shimin held the fish and looked around for a long time before finally putting the fish back into the Wei River with a smile. He said that since the Li family won the world, he has been tracing his ancestors back to my place.

It is just because of Wude and the Zhenguan dynasty that both Zhenguan dynasties adopted a policy of suppressing Buddhism and Taoism, so the Zhenguan dynasty is not too respectful to Taoism now, and it is even more colder than the Wude dynasty. But after all, I am the ancestor of the Li family, so in recent years, there have been those who like to flatter and advise the court, saying that they should be banned from catching carp and eating carp.

First, carp and Li are homophones, second, this carp is called Red Li Gong in Taoism, and there is also a legend among the people that carp jumps over the dragon gate, saying that this carp can transform into a dragon by jumping over the dragon gate, while the emperor is the real dragon emperor, so it is proposed that people in the world should be forbidden to catch and eat carp.

As soon as this happened, the government and the people were talking about it.

Qin Lang even specially published a book, scolding the official for flattering nonsense.

In this era, carp was not only the largest natural ambition freshwater fish species, but also the number one among the people of the Tang Dynasty artificially raised fish. Especially in the north, eating carp not only has a long history, but also is indeed the main edible fish. You ban the ban on preying on carp, which has a huge impact on people's livelihood. People's dining tables need to lose an important food, and a living industry for countless people is lost. Isn't this a sin?

These days, there are not yet four great fish in the world.

With such a rich natural freshwater fish resources, this is a mess.

Anyway, Li Yuan had never done such a bastard before, and Li Shimin had never done it for more than ten years as an emperor. Li Shimin even had an edict that as long as the word Shimin is not even used, there is no need to avoid it. People are the people, it doesn’t matter if you use it, and it doesn’t directly prohibit it. You can name it Long Ai Biao.

I have to say that Li Shimin returned to Chang'an after the queen died of illness and stayed there for a year, but he also attached great importance to such matters that concern people's livelihood.

Finally, Li Shimin personally issued an edict, only banning the fishing and banning of red carp, and the rest were uncontrollable.

In other words, red carp is regarded as a special thing. If you encounter it, you cannot eat it. If you find it, you will be beaten with a board. However, the rest of the carp are still allowed to be harvested and eaten. It has to be said that this edict is still very down-to-earth and considerate to the people.

Of course, it is not ruled out whether his descendants will do whatever they want in the future. Anyway, the Tang Dynasty actually began to ban fishing and eating carp in history when Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Li Longji, and this was also related to the political environment at that time.

The Li family established the Tang Dynasty. Although Li Yuan respected Laozi as his ancestor and respected Taoism, the entire environment during the martial arts was great. Therefore, Li Yuan respected Taoism to balance Buddhism. Later, he could not control it, so he simply ordered the Buddhist Taoism to eliminate the Buddhist Taoism and suppressed it together.

After Li Shimin became the Palace, in order to stabilize the current situation and win the hearts of the people, he stopped Li Yuan's order to eliminate Buddhism and Taoism. He had no particular preference for Buddhism and Taoism.

When it was Wu Zetian, in order to establish Wu Zhou, she created various auspicious auspicious things and even promoted the use of the power of Buddhism. In the Wu Zetian era, both the court and the people worshipped Buddhism to the top. Then, Li Xuanji became an emperor and then adopted the attitude of respecting Taoism and suppressing Buddhism in order to eliminate the power of the Wu family and others at that time, and even did many things, such as signing Laozi as the emperor, creating Laozi to send a dream, instructing him to dig up the inscriptions, etc. The ban on carp also appeared in this political environment at that time.

The fact that worshipping Buddhism and Taoism or banning carp and destroying Buddha is actually caused by deep political factors.

Just like now, the emperor is sitting here fishing with Qin Langbing, and it is definitely not idle.

"The Tubo mission has arrived in Luoyang."

The emperor got another fish.

Qin Lang just nodded.

After the battle in autumn, Qin Lang actually brought thousands of Tubo nobles and nobles including Gardongzan and Qiongbo Bangse to the capital to offer prisoners.

This war shocked the whole world in the autumn of the eleventh year of Zhenguan.

When Qin Lang's victory was first flew into the two capitals, the government and the people couldn't believe it. After all, they wiped out 250,000 enemies, killed 200,000 in formation, and captured nearly 50,000 in captives. No one could believe such a formation, especially Tang Qiang, but only suffered less than 40,000 casualties, and the Tang army itself died in battle in total.

This is simply a magical achievement.

So when the good news was made public, some people in the court immediately began to impeach Qin Lang, saying that he lied to report military merits, etc.

Then the prince Chengqian, the governor of Luoyang, and the prime minister Changsun Wuji, Ma Zhou, Li Daliang and others immediately sent a Xuanwei delegation to Jiannan.

In fact, I'm going to find out what's going on.

They rushed to Hequ with great force, and worked hard to count all the pickled Tubo heads, even checked the headless corpses of Jingguan, counted the prisoners and spoils, interrogated many captive noble generals, etc., and interviewed many officers and soldiers of the Tang and Qiang armies...

Anyway, it was very serious. This mission of comfort came from many yamen such as the three provinces and six ministries of Luoyang, as well as the Censorate, and was composed of many officials to conduct joint investigations.

But in the end, they sent a fast horse to repay the court, which verified that the record was true.

Of course, they also found some falsehoods, such as 200,000 not all of them were slashes, and at least 40,000 were killing prisoners, etc.

After this report was sent back to the Luoyang court, it caused a huge shock.

No one expected that he would have wiped out 250,000 Tubo troops. Although he failed to capture and kill the Tubo king, this record was already Zhenguan. No, it was the biggest victory since the founding of the Tang Dynasty. In terms of the huge combat force, the number of annihilation and beheading of the enemy is the largest.

When Li Shimin fought east and west, besieged Luoyang and fought in Hulao, it was only a scale of more than 100,000 yuan. However, he only had defense as the main focus. It was good to be able to repel it. Later, the Eastern Turks were destroyed, which was not an annihilation war.

However, Qin Lang's battle to destroy Tuyuhun and Fuyun was also an amazing annihilation battle, but at that time, both the number of war soldiers and the number of beheadings were far inferior to this time.

Some people marveled at the fact that Qin Lang is indeed recognized by the people as the god of war to protect the country.

But some people immediately impeached Qin Lang to kill prisoners, kill indiscriminately, etc.

Qin Lang soon escorted the prisoners into the capital and offered them to the palace.

Then, Qin Lang resigned from all his duties on the grounds that the war ended and returned to Chang'an to mourn his father Ding You.

Although Chengqian wanted to keep Qin Lang in Luoyang to assist in the government, Qin Lang had a very good reason. It was an invasion of the great enemy before, and he happened to be in Songzhou, so he was ordered to accept the emperor's love for rescuing. But now the war is over, so he should continue to leave his post. This is the filial piety of the son.

Qin Lang ignored the hustle and bustle in the court. He resigned from all his posts and returned to Chang'an, closed his door to thank the guests, and said in a book.

"The Tubo ambassador is Lunkoer and Songtsen Gampo's uncle."

"I know this person, one of the nine ministers of Tubo, the theory in the meeting of the Princes and Princesses. After Langri Lunzan was poisoned, it was this person who joined forces with Niang Shangnang and Qiongbo Bangse to assist Songtsen Gampo, who was only thirteen years old, to quell the rebellion." Qin Lang said.

"The Tubo envoy was in a low position and said he was willing to pay tribute every year in the future and agreed to Sun Bo to become independent. Do I want to hear your opinions?"

Sun Bo, also known as Senbo, also known as Supi, anyway, has multiple translated names in one place. As one of the three heroes of the plateau, Supi was also the former owner of the Lhasa River Basin.

Tubo annexed Subi was in the era of Langri Lunzan. In fact, it has only been twenty or thirty years since now. After Qin Lang annihilated 250,000 Tubo's troops in Hequ, Tubo can be said to be in danger of losing his country and extermination.

Although Qin Lang did not take the opportunity to chase Luosie City, he asked Niang and others to support Tang to establish themselves, but Tubo was even more destined to live. Tubo was originally a small country in Shannan. He expanded from Shannan step by step and annexed countless small countries on the plateau to achieve the demeanor of the Lord of Weizang today, and even suppressed Xiangxiong and others.

But now Qin Lang has captured a large number of Tubo nobles and persuaded them to become independent.
