Chapter 575 Appointment, Good News Reached Chang’an
Liu Baidao stood respectfully outside the palace, thinking in his mind how to negotiate with Su Chen next.

Although he promised Su Chen to prepare gifts for the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, it was still unknown whether these gifts would please Su Chen.

The most important thing is that because everyone had placed all their treasures on Su Chen before, they were unable to take out many treasures.

If what he brought this time was not enough to attract Su Chen’s attention, then their situation would be delicate.

Just as Liu Baidao was thinking, he heard footsteps behind him.

Liu Baidao looked back and saw that it was Su Chen and others.

“I’ve met the prince.”

“Let’s go in together.”

Su Chen smiled and nodded, then led everyone into the palace.

The prepared delicacies were placed on the table, and Su Chen smiled and invited Li Jingheng and others to eat.

“Let’s eat something together?”

“Thank you, Your Majesty.”

In the face of Su Chen’s invitation, Liu Baidao did not refuse.

After all, this is also one of the ways to establish a relationship with Su Chen.

After taking his seat, Liu Baidao looked at the food in front of him and ate it with relish without refusing.

This look made Li Jingheng and others laugh.

Liu Baidao, whose situation was comparable to that of a prisoner, was not afraid of life or death at all, which changed their impression of him.

Su Chen drank the wine happily. Compared with the delicacies of the Tang Dynasty, the delicacies of Baekje were still a little inferior.

Of course, what is bad is not the preparation of the dishes, but the taste.

“You’ve prepared it so quickly. Have you prepared the gift for His Majesty?”

“Ready.”

Liu Baidao put down the fat chicken in his hand with a smile on his face and said, “This time we emptied our family’s savings and took out all the treasures, just hoping to get the approval of His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.”

“Is it?”

Su Chen smiled and looked sideways.

Sun Qiang nodded, “Lord Liu has indeed prepared a lot of rare calligraphy and paintings, as well as some young ladies.”

Oh?
Young woman?

There was a hint of amusement in the way everyone looked at Liu Baidao.

Liu Baidao naturally understood what everyone was thinking, but he didn’t think there was anything wrong.

To survive, it’s not a shame.

“Those girls are not only outstanding in appearance, but also of high status. Giving them to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty can, on the one hand, show our and Your Majesty’s intentions, and on the other hand, we really can’t come up with a better gift.”

“And the prince’s intentions?”

Li Jingheng was amused, “What you said is quite interesting.”

Su Chen waved his hand, but he understood Liu Baidao’s intention.

Obviously.

He learned that he had stayed overnight in the palace.

Compared to giving these girls to Li Chengqian, Su Chen cared more about this.

“I don’t care whether those girls send the emperor off or not.”

Su Chen smiled and played with the wine glass and said, “I’m just curious, how did you know that I stayed overnight in the palace.”

Liu Baidao smiled and said, “Your Majesty, this is not a secret.”

“Is it?”

Su Chen turned his head to look, and Sun Qiang frowned and said, “I’ll go down and check to see whose mouth is loose.”

Su Chen shook his head, “No need.”

“You’ll tell me, right?”

“…”

Faced with Su Chen’s questioning, Liu Baidao suddenly fell silent.

At the same time, Li Jingheng and others also noticed something was wrong.

Although Su Chen was named the King of Side by Side, he conquered Baekje and stayed overnight in the palace. If the news of this was spread to Chang’an City, it would be inevitable that someone would take this opportunity to attack him.

after all.

They are all members of the royal family of Baekje. Even if Su Chen likes those concubines, he can write to His Majesty and ask His Majesty to reward them. It is not a big deal.

However, Su Chen slept with these women directly, which was over the line.

Liu Baidao sighed, “Your Majesty, I saw this.”

“You can tell?”

Su Chen raised the corner of his mouth slightly, “How did you know that?”

“Early this morning, the prince ordered the concubines to be escorted out of the palace. However, there were two concubines who remained in the palace and did not leave.”

Liu Baidao said slowly: “So, I think those concubines are definitely not in the eyes of the prince, so he only kept two concubines.”

“So I took the initiative to recruit these girls for the prince. I am so bold, please forgive me.”

Su Chen looked at Liu Baidao with a smile. He did not think that he would lie. Instead, he thought that he was a talented person.

Whether it was Liu Baidao who saw it himself, or someone among their soldiers was bribed, this matter can be quickly found out by just investigating.

Liu Baidao knew very well what the consequences of deceiving him would be, so he would definitely not lie about such matters.

“Are there enough things?”

Su Chen spoke calmly.

Sun Qiang said hesitantly, “The number must be less than before.”

“never mind.”

Su Chen waved his hand and said, “For your sake, let’s just leave it at that.”

Liu Baidao looked at Su Chen in astonishment. He never thought that Su Chen would forgive them directly because of him.

Su Chen spoke again: “What was your official position in Baekje before?”

Liu Bai said: “Doctor of the Five Classics.”

Su Chen touched his chin and said, “But in my opinion, this doctor of the Five Classics is really underestimated for you.”

“Those eunuchs, such as the inner court officials and the inner court officials, are no match for you.”

Liu Bai said: “Prince Liao praised it.”

Su Chen: “Where are those people?”

Liu Baidao smiled bitterly, “Those who are capable have already run away, why would they stay here?”

Su Chen was immediately happy, “Okay, then from now on you will be the internal head Zuo Ping in Fengshan City, and you will also be the internal official and the internal law officer. Of course, you can also regard it as the position of Shangshu of the Tang Dynasty.”

“This……”

Liu Baidao was stunned.

He was just a doctor of the Five Classics, and was only a minor official under the Neifa Zuoping.

If he were in the Tang Dynasty, he would be just a doctor in the Imperial College.

Now, he was directly promoted to the position of Shangshu?

“Your Majesty, I really am…”

“Do you think this position is too small, or do you think you are not qualified for it?”

“Not up to the task.”

Liu Baidao pondered and said, “There are still many officials in the city. I am just a doctor of the Five Classics. How can I ride on their heads?”

“What I want is for you to ride on their heads.”

Su Chen said calmly: “What this king values ​​is never the official position or not, what this king values ​​is the individual’s ability.”

“Compared to other officials, you took the initiative to take on important responsibilities when they were all shrinking from taking steps. This is something they cannot compare to.”

“I believe that you can not only handle the affairs in Fengshan City, but also intimidate them.”

Liu Baidao understood a little.

On the one hand, Su Chen valued him, but more importantly, he was a local official and had some understanding of the previous officials of Baekje.

Su Chen promoted him to this position in order to use his connections and means to intimidate those officials.

“I’ll do my best.”

“It’s not about trying your best, it’s about having to do it.”

Su Chen’s face was calm. “The three kingdoms of Goryeo have been settled. I don’t have much time to waste here. I will lead the army back soon.” “Then I will leave Baekje to you.”

“When I arrive in Chang’an, I will write to His Majesty and ask him to assign you a suitable position.”

“Thank you, Your Majesty, for your support!”

Liu Baidao stood up and bowed deeply.

A doctor of the Five Classics suddenly became second only to one person and above everyone else. That feeling is really hard to describe.

and.

According to Su Chen, after Su Chen leaves, he will be the number one person in Baekje!
His power is no less than that of the King of Baekje.

of course.

This is just a thought. Even if Su Chen left, there would still be Tang Dynasty troops left in Baekje.

You still have to take a look at the other person’s expression.

“Go.”

Su Chen waved his hand.

Liu Baidao bowed deeply, then turned and left.

“Isn’t it a bit ill-considered for the prince to promote this person?”

“otherwise.”

Su Chen smiled and shook his head, “Look, how many people came yesterday, and how many more came today?”

“He’s the only one!”

“now it’s right!”

Su Chen smiled and said, “Those officials who didn’t flee are all unworthy of being reused.”

“Although this man is only a doctor of the Five Classics, he relied on his means and abilities to not only convince those officials to spend all their family assets twice, but also had the courage to come here alone, which proves his ability.”

“Now that the Three Kingdoms have been pacified, I will eventually return to Chang’an. Therefore, I need someone who can stay in Baekje and intimidate those officials.”

“There is no doubt that he is the best candidate.”

“In addition, I also intend to keep General Hukov here to prevent unrest in Baekje.”

“I?”

Hu Kefu, who was named, looked at Su Chen with some surprise.

He didn’t think that Su Chen was going to leave Baekje and leave him, a Silla person, in Baekje.

Su Chen nodded: “Not bad.”

“Although General Hu is from Silla, he has turned from evil to good. This is something that I admire very much, so I plan to keep you in Baekje.”

“When I return to Chang’an City, I will personally ask for a title for you.”

Hukov couldn’t help but reveal an expression of ecstasy on his face.

Now that Silla has collapsed, the Silla royal family has also been broken up. Although he is a general of Silla, he has long been loyal to the Tang Dynasty.

Now that I am valued by Su Chen and have received his promise, even if I don’t become successful in the future, at least my future will be worry-free.

Moreover.

Being a soldier makes you famous, so who is not a soldier?
Is there any difference between Silla, Baekje, or Tang Dynasty?

No.

“I will obey my orders.”

Su Chen smiled and nodded, and saw Kodo looking at him expectantly.

Su Chen smiled and said, “General Kodo also wants to go back to Chang’an with me?”

Return to Chang’an?
Heaven and earth can testify that Kodo has never thought of it that way.

He just wanted to ask for a good official title among the many general positions in the Tang Dynasty.

But now it seems that Su Chen doesn’t seem to think so.

“Your Majesty wants to take us back to Chang’an?”

“good.”

Su Chen raised his lips slightly, “Not only will I take you back to Chang’an, I will also take you to see the emperor and ask for a reward for you in person.”

hiss!
Hukov and others looked at Kodo with a little more envy in their eyes.

I will come to you and ask for your reward.

Especially the one introduced by Su Chen, would His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty not take him seriously?

Kodoan suppressed his excitement and asked, “I wonder what the prince wants us to do?”

“Open up new worlds.”

Su Chen smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I will find enough opponents for you and make your cavalry’s reputation a nightmare for all countries!”

Kodo nodded again: “Thank you for your cultivation, Your Majesty!”

……

Changan.

A cavalryman brought the good news and rushed into the city on horseback, shouting continuously.

“Good news!”

“Good news!”

“Baekje’s great victory!”

“The prince personally led the army to capture the Fengshan Castle of Baekje. The Baekje King Buyeo Jang committed suicide and was burned to death. From then on, the three kingdoms of Goryeo, Silla and Baekje all came under the rule of our Tang Dynasty!”

The cavalry’s loud shouts caused countless passers-by to hide and look over there.

Great victory!

Great victory for Baekje!

From then on, the three areas of Silla became part of the Tang Dynasty?

“Good good!”

“I know that once the King of Side by Side takes action, Silla and Baekje will be utterly terrified!”

“Too fast, isn’t this too fast?”

“How long has it been since then? The three kingdoms of Goryeo, Silla and Baekje have become part of our Tang Dynasty?”

“Hahahaha, great victory, great joy, it should all be clear!”

“Let’s go, let’s go drink!”

“I won’t come home until I get drunk today!”

“You won’t come home until you’re drunk!”

The cavalry rushed all the way to the outside of the palace.

After being stopped again, the cavalry immediately reported the victory and was hurriedly taken into the palace by the eunuchs.

“Your Majesty, Baekje has won a great victory!”

The eunuch hurried in from outside, holding up Su Chen’s handwriting, and said excitedly: “The King of Side by Side swept across Baekje, and now all three kingdoms have returned to Tang!”

All the civil and military officials in the hall looked at him with surprise.

Baekje was destroyed!
“Good good!”

“Where is the good news? Present it to me immediately!”

Li Chengqian was so excited that his face showed his joy. He hurriedly took the good news handed to him by the eunuch and looked at it carefully.

Is this Su Chen’s handwriting?
After seeing the above text, Li Chengqian frowned unconsciously.

He recognized Su Chen’s handwriting and naturally knew that this was not written by Su Chen, but this was a good news report written to him in Su Chen’s tone.

You asked someone to write it for you, right?
Li Chengqian glanced at the content, and the smile on his face grew wider.

Only after reading the last word did Li Chengqian put down the victory report and laughed loudly, saying, “My dear ministers, Goryeo, Silla, and Baekje have all submitted to our Tang Dynasty!”

“Among them, Goryeo and Baekje were destroyed, and the royal family of Silla voluntarily came to Chang’an and handed over all of Silla’s vast land to our Tang Dynasty for governance!”

“it is good!”

“Congratulations, Your Majesty!”

“Congratulations, Your Majesty!”

“Emperor Yang of Sui conquered Goryeo three times but was unable to pacify it. Now, under your majesty’s divine power, it is vulnerable!”

“Your Majesty’s achievements far surpass those of the previous dynasty, and the whole world can see it!”

“This matter should be announced to the world, so that the people of the Tang Dynasty can witness together the great power of your majesty!”
