Li Hao felt that he was becoming more and more like a villain.

Hypocritical face, sinister intentions, cruel means.

Forget it, don’t think about it anymore. Thinking too much of this kind of thing can easily affect your true intentions.

Thinking about the slaves who were released, their skin was covered with bones, and some were even left with only one breath and were still hanging. The numb expression after each knew that they were rescued was heartbreaking.

Even though he knew that the slaves were often the same, even though he knew that the outcome of those slaves from other races in the Tang Dynasty was not much better than the rescued Han people, Li Hao just couldn't overcome the hurdle in his heart.

Li Hao must admit that he is not a saint or a savior. He is at ease with his own and outsiders, and that is enough.

Xi Junmai and Tiezhu each guarded outside the palace with weapons, and looked inside.

Since Tiezhu had a fight with General Murong last time and exposed his "strength", he, Xi Junmai and others, lost the opportunity to enter the palace and approach Fu Yun.

This is something that can't be done, and no one can stop Fu Yun from being afraid.

"Zhuzi, the general is so brave. Are you not afraid that that guy Fu Yun will turn against him?" Although the palace was loud, the sound inside was still heard without any leakage. Xi Junmai heard it and expressed his concern to Tiezhu.

‘Bangbang’ Tiezhu patted the ‘door panel’ behind him with his backhand: “No, if you have this, if something really happens, we will go in.”

"Okay." Xi Junmai scratched his head, but was still a little worried. He turned his head and looked at the direction of the side palace. Seeing that Su Lie was guarding the door, he felt a little clear in his heart.

If there is really something wrong, that person should take action first, probably.

In the palace, some were filled with righteous indignation, while others were frowning and pondering, as if considering Li Hao’s suggestions.

Fu Yun looked gloomy with his face, staring at Li Hao, his chest fluctuated violently, and he squeezed out a sentence from his teeth: "Li Dejian, Gu has been tolerating you for a long time, I hope you don't mislead yourself."

"No, no, Master Fu Yun, I think you should have misunderstood something." Despite being threatened, Li Hao still looked like he was dying: "Actually, I am just explaining a fact. Maybe these words sound a little harsh to you, but you should not deny that I do have the strength to destroy Tuyuhun. Who makes you weak now, right?"

Fu Yun's breathing became much heavier. If possible, he wanted to order to fight with Li Hao. Isn't it just a war? What's so great? The warriors in Tuyuhun were not afraid of war.

But he knew that this was impossible. Although his ministers in the palace were all filled with righteous indignation, these guys were actually eager to tie their hands and go to the Tang Dynasty to apologize.

In this way, they can die fewer tribe members, and then be generous and righteous, and use themselves as part of the Tang Dynasty, and transform themselves into lackeys of the Tang Dynasty.

People are so realistic. Human nature is complex and human hearts are even more complicated. When you have the strength, they are your dog. When you don’t have the strength, they are not sure what they are.

The atmosphere in the palace hall seemed particularly tense, and everyone was waiting for Fu Yun's answer.

After a long time, Fu Yun leaned on the throne depressedly and raised his hand weakly: "Li Dejian, you have won, I am willing to go to the Tang Dynasty to apologize."

"Your Majesty, you can't."

"The king thinks three times..."

"The King..."

Whether it was true love or falsehood, the hall was in a mess instantly.

"Bored!" Li Hao curled his lips and stood up to salute Fu Yun: "The king of the country is benevolent and righteous, the people of Tuyuhun will remember everything the king did for Tuyuhun."

After saying this, Li Hao ignored Fu Yun and the reactions of everyone in the hall and turned around and walked towards the exit of the hall.

What he should do has been done, and he can almost pack up and prepare to return to the Tang Dynasty.

To be honest, although it is safe and secure to stay in Tuyuhun, the food I eat is too monotonous. In just two months, Li Hao's fingers had barbecue, and it hurts when he touched it.

Is it pretentious? Li Hao admitted that it is indeed a bit pretentious, but I am the prince and Li Er's favorite minister. Shouldn't it be pretentious?

It took only one night to pack up the gifts and get some luggage to prepare for the trip.

Fu Yun was not slow either. Since he decided to go to Chang'an with Li Hao, he would fight quickly, bring his wife and a few old subordinates, and then bring more than ten cars of various treasures. Under the escort of the two thousand palace guards, he made an appointment with Li Hao early on the morning of the third day and embarked on the road to the Tang Dynasty.

The battle in the southern border is still in progress, and the Tubo people are killing all directions, but this has nothing to do with Fu Yun. The Tang people said it well, "There are people and lose land, and people and land are both gained. As long as they can live, they can regain the things that have been taken away sooner or later."

The sun rises and the moon sets, and it has been two days since the blink of an eye, leaving Gahai City, and there are more than 200 miles left in Liangzhou.

In the middle of the long queue, in Fu Yun's gorgeous carriage, Fu Yun, Fu Shun and Li Hao sat opposite each other. There were various Western food and wine on the small table in front of them.

After leaving Gahai City, Fu Yun seemed to have put down everything, enjoying life leisurely every day, eating and drinking, and invited Li Hao to his carriage from time to time to talk about interesting stories between the countries in the Western Regions, which is also elegant.

Li Hao is naturally irresistible. It is better to hide in the car than to be blown by the strong wind outside. As for bragging and chatting, let alone Fu Yun, even Li Er is not good at coming.

The great time traveler may not be the most capable or the smartest in ancient times, but he is definitely the most insightful.

The Western Regions west of Tuyuhun are nothing. Dashi, Byzantine, Daqin knows it? Have you heard of Taixi land that goes west? What about Taixi land? Who else knows?

The vast sea, towering mountains and bottomless canyons, Fu Yun and his son could make a few words at first, but later they were left with their mouths wide open and saliva was stunned.

"I have to say that you are the most knowledgeable Tang man I have ever met. Come, Shidu, I will respect you a glass of King Gu." On this day, after chatting about the Grand Canyon of Colorado, Fu Yun poured a cup of wine for Li Hao and raised his glass toast.

Li Hao was not polite and raised his glass to Fu Yun and his son, saying, "Drinking!"

"Drinking!"

After drinking a cup, Fu Yun put down the cup in his hand: "Li Shidu, there is something unknown to the king of Gu. I wonder if you can solve the problem for Gu?"

"The king of the country is okay." Li Hao could roughly guess what Fu Yun wanted to ask, and smiled slightly: "I know everything and say everything."

"Isn't Li Shidu afraid of death? With your identity and status, this trip to Tuyuhun can be said to be a risk alone. The Lone King wants to ask, is it worth it?"

"The king of the country was joking." Li Hao shook his head and smiled: "I am a ignorant Chang'an playboy. How can I have any status? As for the danger alone... I want to ask the king of the country, do you really kill me?"

After looking at each other calmly for a moment, Fu Yun said with certainty: "No."

Li Hao spread his hands: "Will it be over? Since the king will not kill me, then the trip to Tuyuhun is just a trip in my life, so how can there be a danger?"

Fu Yun was stunned for a moment, and then laughed for a while and said, "Haha... I have heard that Prince Wei of the Tang Dynasty has a talent for sophistry, and today I know that he is indeed well-known."

"The king of the country is too much." Li Hao bowed shamelessly, and then the three people laughed out loud from the carriage.

After laughing for a long time, Fu Yun even burst into tears because he knew very well that Tuyuhun was over. From now on, as long as Li Hao is still there for one day, Tuyuhun will not have a day to turn over. His son Fushun can't beat this guy at all. If he wants to turn over, maybe it's still the same when the kid dies.

But who knows what kind of monsters will pop up in the Tang Dynasty at that time?

After the three of them laughed, after a long time, Fu Yun asked again: "Li Shidu, Gu is very confused. The land of Tuyuhun is poor, so there should be nothing worth the Tang Dynasty's concern, but why do you have to spend so much effort to handle this matter?"

"Whether a person's place is barren is not transferred according to personal will. Perhaps in the eyes of the world, Tuyuhun is really a barren land, but in my opinion, Tuyuhun is a natural ranch, a bridge connecting the Tang Dynasty and the Western Regions. If the big suit is Tuyuhun in the Western Regions, it is the best springboard."

Since this has ended, Li Hao no longer concealed his thoughts and said frankly: "So Tuyuhun must be included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty, so don't feel unwilling to accept it. In fact, it is not a bad thing for you to incorporate Tuyuhun into the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

Maybe you will find what I want to say next, and you will not like to listen to it, but to be honest, in my opinion, Tuyuhun cannot be called a country, because you lack the foundation of a country, your production capacity is almost zero, and you don’t even have the ability to build your own weapons. How many of your own food, clothing, housing and transportation have you solved independently?

You only need to buy animal skins, cloths, etc. when dressing. You have nothing to eat except meat, and you still have to buy or rob. The living aspect is just a matter of how many people you will freeze to death every winter. The way of practice is easy to say, you have horses, but Tuyuhun lacks water sources and the climate is poor. You dare not leave your residence too far, and you may die outside if you are far away.

Think about it, in this case, how can you call a country? At most, it is a prince or warlord, or... a stronger horse thief."

Li Hao did not exaggerate the facts. Anyway, Fu Yun had already embarked on the road to Chang'an, so he no longer needed to fool anything.

In his opinion, Tuyuhun did not have the foundation to establish a country. It had too many things dependent on the outside world. Without fresh blood from the outside world, Tuyuhun would inevitably fall apart and continue to war.

"Is there a solution?" Fu Shun asked.

The old man is about to go to the Tang Dynasty, and he may not be able to return to Tuyuhun in the future. Fushun, the legal heir, really wants to find a solution to the problem from Li Hao.

I'm not dead yet, Fu Yun glared at his son.

Although he knew very well what his future would be like, his own son asked such a question in front of him still made him feel a little uncomfortable, even if he knew that he would never go back to Tuyuhun again.

Li Hao changed to a more comfortable sitting position, smacked his lips and said, "I just said that incorporating Tuyuhun into the territory of the Tang Dynasty is the best solution. The Tang Dynasty has everything, and it can solve all difficulties for Tuyuhun."

"But Tuyuhun is too far from the Tang Dynasty, and far water cannot quench near thirst."

"Then let's build a road. In the past, it took one month to travel from the Tang Dynasty to Tuyuhun, but if the road is repaired, the time can be shortened to half a month or even ten days."

Li Hao sighed: "Actually, you have done something wrong. As superiors, your fun should be to build a better living environment for your tribe members and enjoy the people's worshipful eyes and a beautiful life. Exploiting people and slaves is something that only robbers do, and this will not give you any fun."

Create a better living environment for the people of the tribe? What a great ideal.

Fu Yun was thinking, and Fu Shun's eyes shone brightly, as if he had found the goal of life.

He felt that Li Hao was right, that he was too superficial before.

After this conversation, Fu Yun did not see Li Hao again for a long time, and Fu Shun hid, not knowing what he was doing until one day, the moving team stopped.

In front of the team is the border between the Tang Dynasty and Tuyuhun.

On the border, flags were waving and battles were covered with clouds. There were countless barracks, and there were no camps on the border. The Tang Dynasty cavalry in leather armor was galloping across the board, and a big flag with the word Cheng was waving in the wind.

It was on the way back that the Right Wu Guard, who had won a great victory in the Turks, who stayed behind to wait for the return of Li Hao's mission.

Cheng Yaojin had already received news of the return of the delegation at this time and brought hundreds of cavalry to greet him.

emmm..., Li Hao believes that this old guy is actually visiting his son, and he and Fu Yun and Fu Shun are just taking care of him.

This is true. When the two sides met and greeted each other, Li Hao had only time to call Uncle Cheng, and Old Cheng pushed him aside. The whip in his hand slammed the head and slapped Cheng Chu, who was dodging.

"You little bastard, you still know how to come back, why don't you die in Baekje? What are you doing when you come back! Bastard, do you know how much your mother is worried about you, you bastard..."

‘Papapapapapapa…’, Lao Cheng’s whip danced so hard that he could not see the shadow, he could only hear the sound of the whip sucking people.

Li Hao curled his lips and looked at Cheng Chumo who was screaming in contempt.

Damn, you dare to scream again, don’t you be so badly. Wearing a bright light armor, you can’t even cut you with a knife. What a whip is worth, and you won’t scream so badly.

Fu Yun stood beside Li Hao in embarrassment, neither crying nor laughing. The dignified Tuyuhun king was actually ignored at this time, as if in Lao Cheng's eyes, it was important to pick him up and beat his son.
