Chapter 173
"Your Majesty, the matter has been settled. It is agreed to trade at the border in three months. However, I am not sure whether their identities are true." Lin Xuan said.
It will be embarrassing when people are deceived.
"Don't worry about this, the investigation has been clear, and their identities are no problem. It's just that I didn't expect that Tuyuhun actually intervened." Li Shimin said.
Tuyuhun is a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty and borders the Tang Dynasty.
He has always been very respectful to Datang, but now it seems that he is not very honest.
"Your Majesty, those countries that respect the Great Tang just want to be protected by the Great Tang." Lin Xuan said.
Li Shimin wouldn't really think that if someone becomes your vassal state and makes offerings every year, it means that he really belongs to you.
Li Shimin glared at Lin Xuan, and said, "Of course I know what you said. I always thought that Tuyuhun was nothing to be afraid of. It seems that I have to guard against him in the future."
It has always been Li Shimin's idea to strike first.
As long as he feels threatened, he is ready to nip the threat in the bud.
If possible, Li Shimin even wanted to wipe out all the enemies around Datang in his lifetime, and didn't want to leave these threats to future generations.
"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry about Tuyuhun. It is Tubo that His Majesty should be on guard against," Lin Xuan said.
Calculated according to time, Tuyuhun would not be stable for long.
When Songtsan Gampo stabilized the domestic situation in Tubo, it was time to attack Tuyuhun.
In history, Tuyuhun was wiped out by Tubo.
"Major affairs of the country should not be taken on a whim." Li Shimin said.
He thought Lin Xuan hated Tubo because of his marriage last time.
"Does Your Majesty understand Tubo's current Zanpu?" Lin Xuan asked.
Li Shimin shook his head and said: "I don't understand, I only heard that he succeeded to the throne at the age of 12, and he is only sixteen or seventeen now."
A sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, Li Shimin didn't feel much threat.
"Your Majesty, the current Zanpu of Tubo is called Songtsan Gambo. He succeeded to the throne when the old Tubo nobles launched a rebellion. At that time, not only lost a lot of land, but the old Tubo nobles also colluded with the surrounding enemy countries. Here Under such circumstances, Songtsan Gampo first stabilized the domestic situation, then recruited a large number of troops and trained the army. According to the information I received, he may send troops to suppress the rebellion this year." Lin Xuan said.
In history, Songtsan Gampo sent troops to suppress the rebellion in the sixth year of Zhenguan, and the speed was very fast.
After Songtsan Gampo unified Tubo, he recuperated for a period of time, and then began to attack the surrounding countries.
Later, because Li Shimin did not agree to his marriage proposal, after driving away Tuyuhun, he sent troops to attack Datang.
In this battle in history, after Songtsan Gampo lost a game, he withdrew his troops and sent envoys to apologize.
Li Shimin married Songtsen Gampo, a daughter of the clan, named Princess Wencheng.Since then, the two countries have lived in peace.
After Lin Xuan came to Datang, although some things changed, it did not have the slightest influence on Tubo.
It is still the same as in history, Li Shimin rejected Songtsan Gampo's marriage proposal.
If there is no major accident later, Tubo will still attack Datang as in history.
"Where did you get this news?" Li Shimin asked in surprise.
If it is true what Lin Xuan said, Songtsan Gampo can be called a hero of the generation.
People who think like this have great ambitions, and it is impossible that they do not have the idea of expanding territories.
"Your Majesty, this is what I heard and analyzed from some Tubo merchants. If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can have someone investigate it," Lin Xuan said.
Historically, after Songtsan Gampo married Princess Wencheng, he never attacked the Tang Dynasty.
But without him, it is impossible for the marriage to happen again.
Songtsen Gampo would definitely not give up if he did not make peace.
It is better to find a way to control the development of Tubo now.
"At this time, I will arrange someone to investigate." Li Shimin said.
"The minister is retiring first. Your Majesty remembers to arrange people to go to the border to buy horses, cattle and sheep. The price can be lowered as low as possible." Lin Xuan said.
This is what he and Li Shimin discussed yesterday.
Let the Western Turks pay with copper coins, and then send people to the border to buy horses, cattle and sheep.
……
After Lin Xuan left the palace, he came to Huimin Medical Center.
After all, he was the one who stayed behind Sun Simiao, so it's not good if you don't go and see.
Huimin Medical Center is now the most famous medical center in Chang'an.
Not only because of the cheap price, the most important thing is that there is a genius doctor Sun Simiao.
When Lin Xuan came to Huimin Medical Center, he saw people lining up from the house to the street.
Lin Xuan dismounted and walked into the house.
"Look, another queue jumper. Dr. Sun hates queue jumpers the most. Anyone who jumped in line before was kicked out."
The people in line saw Lin Xuan walking in, and whispered to the people behind them.
"But this man came with soldiers. He seems to be of extraordinary status. Will he be kicked out?"
"Why not, it's not like it hasn't happened before, just wait and see the excitement."
Many people who lined up had the same thoughts as them, waiting for Lin Xuan to be kicked out.
When Lin Xuan walked into the store, he saw Sun Simiao giving a pulse and didn't bother him.
"I have seen the young master!"
The two servants who grabbed the medicine were both sent by the Lin family, and they greeted Lin Xuan quickly when they saw Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan waved his hand and said, "Are you very busy now? Do you need me to send some more people?"
"Master Hui, the two of us are really too busy."
The medicinal materials in Huimin Medical Center are very cheap, and most people choose to buy medicine here after seeing a doctor.
Fortunately, there is only one doctor, Sun Simiao, in Huimin Medical Center, and they can barely cope.
"I see, I will send someone tomorrow. Has nothing happened during this time?" Lin Xuan asked.
"Returning to my son, there is no major issue, but there are often people who keep their identities and don't line up. There are also some people who want the genius doctor to come to see a doctor."
"How did the miracle doctor deal with it?" Lin Xuan asked curiously.
The words he asked Li Shimin for were for future hospitals.
He was curious how Sun Simiao sent those people away.
"My lord, the Chang'an Mansion has sent people to patrol the vicinity, as long as there is trouble, they will come." Jia Ding said.
That's it!
I just don't know whether it was Li Shimin's order or Li Chengqian's.
But these are not important, with the Chang'an Mansion taking care of the medical center, there is no need to worry about people making trouble.
After all, the governor of Chang'an is the prince.
Although many people didn't value the prince too much, no one dared to openly deny Li Chengqian face.
Even the eldest grandson Wuji still had to salute when he saw Li Chengqian.
"Okay, go get busy." Lin Xuan said.
Lin Xuan wondered whether to start recruiting some highly skilled doctors now.
Based on his understanding of Sun Simiao, Sun Simiao must start seeing patients every day when the market opens, and it will not end until the market closes.
Although Sun Simiao looked 50 years old, he was 90 years old after all.
If things continued like this, Sun Simiao might be exhausted.
Lin Xuan stayed in the clinic for a while, then left.
Sun Simiao was so busy that he didn't even have a word.
Back home, Lin Xuan found the butler.
"Uncle Lin, you can arrange two literate servants to go to the clinic to help." Lin Xuan said.
Butler Lin said: "Young master, there is no literate servant in the family."
"Then go buy a few, and you must choose the clever one." Lin Xuan said.
Butler Lin said with some embarrassment: "My lord, it is very difficult to buy literate domestic slaves. Generally, only official slaves can read."
Literate people, no matter how bad they are, they can still earn a living without selling themselves into slavery.
If you want to buy literate domestic slaves, you can only buy them from the government.
Generally, if someone commits a serious crime and their family members are implicated, they will become official slaves.
"Where can I buy official slaves?" Lin Xuan asked.
Butler Lin said: "Young master, I have never heard of where you can buy official slaves."
"Okay, I'll find a way for this matter, you help me find some people who are good at Cuju, it doesn't need to be too many, a dozen is enough." Lin Xuan said.
He also wants to form a Cuju team, and then he will compete with Cheng Chumo and the others.
Lin Xuan was going to ask Li Chengqian about the matter of official slaves.
It just so happens that we need to entrust him with the matter of recruiting a doctor.
"Yes! I just don't know how many people the young master needs?" Lin Butler asked.
Lin Xuan thought for a while and said, "You don't need too many, a dozen or so is enough. But you must find someone with high skills."
