On the contrary, once the Holy King religion is deeply rooted.
Along the entire Silk Road, Tang and his own blood were regarded as a time of sacredness and faith.
Such a country is the most stable and enduring.
In the future, even if my descendants are weak and the Tang Dynasty is weak, I believe that the army from the Holy King Sect will provide a little help.
Of course, in the process of spreading the Holy King Religion, there are bound to be great contradictions and conflicts with the original local beliefs.
Tianzhu, which has a vast territory and is rich in Buddhism, is such an example.
Facing the menacing attack of the Holy King Sect that is constantly encircling and infiltrating.
The king of Tianzhu, Alonashun, ordered the massacre of the followers of the Holy King Sect in the country.
The surrounding small countries where the Holy King Sect took root were also attacked and invaded.
For a time, this atrocity in Tianzhu attracted the anger of countless Holy King Sect countries and believers.
Ever since, they all focused their attention on Wang Xuance, the first disciple of the Holy King.
Against this background, Wang Xuance made a decisive decision and immediately called for the Holy King's oral order.
Directly mobilized the forces of Nibhara, Sanpara, Lion Kingdom and other countries to defeat Tianzhu in one fell swoop.
In terms of military strategy and marching and fighting, Tianzhu has been abused since its ancestors.
After the demise of Tianzhu, for a while, the reputation of the Holy King Sect was great.
Almost unified the expectations of the entire West Asia.
There are countless countries that have declared surrender and tribute to the Tang Dynasty.
After this good news was delivered to Chang'an City.
Li Shimin, Li Qiu and others were overjoyed.
The imperial court even rewarded Wang Xuance heavily with the title of General Xuande and Marquis.
Chapter 1082
Now, time flies like a white horse.
The few disciples that Li Qiu accepted back then have already grown up.
He has grown into a famous general.
Became the pillar of the Tang Dynasty.
Especially Li Qiu felt quite proud of his disciple Wang Xuance's achievement of destroying a country by one person.
Also in this void.
Hubu Shangshu Qu Hetai came to see him with a smile.
Also talked about this matter, not very deliberately praised Wang Xuance.
It is said that Xuan Ce, who was still a little immature back then, has now become a general who can take charge of one side for His Highness.
Really gratifying.
And he himself admired Li Qiu's aspect of cultivating disciples.
After some compliments, Li Qiu naturally laughed out loud, feeling extremely good.
Although Li Qiu is now in charge of the world, he has also exercised more and more the majesty of an emperor.
But in front of Ma Zhou, Gao Jifu, Cheng Mingzhen, Qu Hetai, these absolute confidants, and their own people.
He was as casual as ever.
Qu Hetai is quite capable.
Back then, it was only because he came from a poor family, his family status was not obvious, and his foundation was shallow.
So I have been stuck in the position of the military doctor, and I have basically reached the end.
Later, under Li Qiu's gradual excavation, Qu Hetai, who got a chance, gradually revealed his own brilliance.
Now in the position of Hubu Shangshu, the political achievements he has made are quite remarkable.
It has almost become recognized as the most outstanding household minister since the founding of the Tang Dynasty.
At the same time, since Li Qiu became the prince.
Driven by the people in the Furong Garden, Qu Hetai's connections and relationships are also rapidly easing and improving.
Although it is not long-sleeved and good at dancing nowadays, it is also exquisite in all directions.
These are also the key to whether he can go further in the future and become the prime minister and chief assistant.
After joking for a while.
Qu Hetai finally offered his invitation very sincerely.
"Your Highness, in fact, I came here today mainly to share a happy event with Your Highness."
Hearing Qu Hetai's betrayal, Li Qiu naturally asked with a smile.
At this time, Qu Hetai rubbed his hands together, couldn't help but smiled happily and said, "A month ago, the concubine gave birth to a baby boy."
"My lord, I finally have a son."
"Today happens to be the day of the full moon of the dog, so no matter what, I would like to invite Your Highness to come to the humble house of the minister to have a talk."
"Ye Rongchen and the whole family, thank you for your kindness."
"The minister is also bold. Please, Your Highness, can you give the dog a name."
Listening to Qu Hetai's words, Li Qiu laughed and stood up, feeling happy for him from the bottom of his heart.
Speaking of such a big happy event, it is indeed worth celebrating.
Before that, Qu Hetai's wife and concubine left him three daughters.
In the past two years, giving birth to a son and continuing the incense has always been Qu Hetai's obsession.
When their insiders joked in their spare time, Ma Zhou, Cheng Mingzhen, and Tang Jian also made jokes about Lao Qu.
Originally, Li Qiu was thinking of suggesting to call everyone together to make it lively.
Let's give Qu Hetai's son Full Moon a wedding wine together.
But considering that Qu Hetai has quite a personality, he is quite different from ordinary people.
So I gave up this idea.
At noon, Li Qiu simply gave himself half a day off.
Go directly to Qu Hetai's house.
It was still the familiar, small, even slightly shabby little mansion.
There are a few guards and servants alone, and three or two maids and servants to serve.
Looking at his mansion, even Li Qiu couldn't help frowning.
"Hetai, you are still a third-rank official in the court now."
"Senior official of the Ministry of Finance."
"Your house is too shabby, isn't it?"
Listening to Li Qiu's words, Qu Hetai couldn't help but smile wryly.
"Your Highness, there are only a few people in this minister's family."
"Although this house is small, it is still comfortable. After all these years, I have long been used to it."
"Furthermore, although the official's salary is quite a lot nowadays, the land price in Chang'an City is the same."
"It is more than ten times higher than before the Silk Road was unblocked."
"The minister didn't think about changing the mansion any more."
Hearing Qu Hetai's words, Li Qiu couldn't help feeling ashamed.
Who said that only in the modern society more than 1000 years later, there will be the pain of high housing prices such as the imperial capital and the magic capital?
In fact, as early as the Tang Dynasty, the largest city in the world had a population exceeding one million.
Moreover, gentry and rich people from all over the world gather here constantly.
Among them, the Holy King Sect definitely contributed a considerable part of the assistance.
At this time, the problems of high housing prices and housing difficulties faced by the common people have become quite prominent.
Even senior officials like Qu Hetai would like to buy a decent mansion if they don't want to be corrupt.
I'm afraid I have to save two years' salary.
Ever since, Li Qiu shook his head slightly and sighed.
"In the past few years, I have also been busy with state affairs."
"But I forgot to show compassion for those around you."
"Based on your achievements in the past, you should deserve this mansion."
"Go back and wait for the reward."
Listening to Li Qiu's words, Qu Hetai was naturally grateful.
After entering his home, Li Qiu also saw his wives and concubines, as well as his three daughters.
And the baby boy who just had one month.
Seeing Qu Hetai's wife and children nervously saluted himself.
Li Qiu also smiled gently, so that they don't have to be formal.
Speaking of which, Qu Hetai's two wives and concubines also have an interesting history.
Back then, when Cheng Mingzhen was just transferred to the central government.
Li Shimin cherished his talent, and in order to show the emperor's favor, he gave him two beautiful maids as concubines.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Mingzhen's wife Hedong Shihou directly coaxed the two girls out.
Became one of the famous shrews in history.
In the end, the trouble made Li Shimin helpless, so he left the mess to Li Qiu to deal with.
At that time, Li Qiu also had an idea, so he simply gave the reward here to Qu Hetai, who had been single since his wife died early.
Unexpectedly, several years have passed so far.
Qu and Tai already have so many children.
Chapter 1083 Bloody Disaster
On the wine table, Qu Hetai also toasted Li Qiu respectfully.
"Your Highness."
"I think back then, before I met you."
"It can be said to be depressed and hopeless."
"Obviously I have an ambition in my heart, and I want to make great achievements for my Great Tang, for the world, and to benefit the world at the same time."
"However, just because I came from a humble background and my family background is not obvious, I was excluded by these noble families."
"Being able to be a doctor is already breaking the rules."
"At that time, the minister had no other choice but to be full of complaints and plan to spend his life in a waste of nothing."
"But it is also because of you, Your Highness, that the minister has been reborn."
"Not only did I get your respect and opportunity, but even this wife and concubine and family were bestowed by Your Highness."
"My lord, this cup is toast to Your Highness!"
Seeing Qu Hetai's reddened eyes, Li Qiu smiled and shook his head.
