    After Huang Mingyuan left the East Palace, Yang Zhao also followed.  He originally came to the East Palace just for Huang Mingyuan, and he also planned to go to Huang Mingyuan's house for a feast to reward himself.

    The two got on the carriage, and Yang Zhao advised: "Brother Yuan, don't be too anxious. The more important the matter, the more impatient it is. I will go to Daxing Palace tomorrow to find out more about it."

    Huang Mingyuan shook his head and said: "Whether we can carry out the Northern Expedition now is no longer a military issue, but a matter of court struggle. This is a very dangerous matter.

    ¡°There are some things I didn¡¯t say in front of His Highness. In fact, the situation in the North has deteriorated very seriously.  In fact, Bujia Khan's rule is unstable. If we don't take action, the Tiele people will take his place.  A Tongluo tribe emerged on the grassland and established a centralized country after the Han people, which was very harmful.  And the Qi Min Ministry that recruits surrenders and rebels in Monan has become so powerful without the restraint of Awu Sili that I can hardly suppress it.  "

    Yang Zhao was stunned and asked: "Is there such a thing?"

    "You didn't know it in Chang'an. The more chaotic the grassland is, the more opportunities there are for some heroes to fish in troubled waters. In this northern expedition, Bujia Khan led Qimin Khan back to Mobei, in order to drive him back to Mobei to suppress the Sui Dynasty.  Tiele tribes. If the current Qimin tribe stays in Monan, it will cause serious trouble."

    Huang Mingyuan gets angry thinking about this, and wonders if Yang Jian is crazy.

    The Dengli tribe was defeated in the battle of Saiyin Mountain. Awu Sili, who had no chance of turning over, saw no way out and finally decided to defect to the Sui Dynasty.

    Awusi was brave and resourceful. He was originally a good chess piece to check Qimin Khan, but then Yang Jian was destroyed.

    Yang Jian named Awusili as the Yehu of the East Turks and named him Dengli.  Then he asked Dengli to go to Dali City to merge with Qimin Khan.

    "Perhaps the Sui Dynasty thought that the merger of the two groups, and the enmity between Awusili and Qimin Khan, could support the weaker one and suppress the smaller one.  It is a pity that the Sui Dynasty underestimated the influence of Qimin Khan.

    Not long after the merger of the two divisions, Awu Sili's subordinates turned to the orthodox Qimin Khan one after another. The Great Sui Bai made a wedding dress for the Qimin Division.

    Yang Zhao was a little helpless after hearing this. As Huang Mingyuan said, the decision-making power of this matter lies in the court struggle. He was also helpless and anxious.

    Huang Mingyuan and Yang Zhao rode a carriage all the way out of the East Palace. They did not go directly to Yanximen, but took a detour to Liren City.

    Liren City is the West City of Chang'an. Compared with the East City, the West City is more civilian and popular, and the passenger flow is more complicated. A large number of Central Asian merchants from the Western Regions gather here.  Dancers, actors, and acrobats come and go all the time.

    "Brother Yuan, what are you doing in Liren City?"

    ¡°Give a gift!¡±

    Yang Zhao thought Huang Mingyuan was joking, but when he saw Huang Mingyuan's serious expression, he was a little stunned.  After a while, he asked hesitantly: "Brother Yuan, you can't tell the truth, can you?"

    "Can this kind of thing still lie to people?"

    Yang Zhao was a little puzzled and asked doubtfully: "Who are you giving gifts to, and you still need to come to Liren City? Although the things here are rich, you are not required to come and buy them in person."

    "You'll understand in a moment."

    Huang Mingyuan did not explain clearly to Yang Zhao, but dragged Yang Zhao all the way into Liren City.

    At this time, Chang'an West Market already had the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. Walking through the bustling West Market, you can see singing and dancing everywhere, and the cultural and entertainment atmosphere is quite strong.

    Yang Zhao has not been to the West Market for a long time, and he was very interested in walking through it.

    ¡°I¡¯m treating you today, so don¡¯t save money with me.¡±

    Yang Zhao listened to the music and joked: "Hey, this is not like your style."

    Huang Mingyuan smiled and said nothing to Yang Zhao's teasing. When they were in Yangzhou, the two of them also searched for gifts for Yang Qing'er in the streets and alleys of Yangzhou.

    The two of them came to a jewelry and jade shop in the West Market. This kind of jewelry and jade shop is full of treasures from Persia in the Western Region.  Many merchants from the Western Regions traveled thousands of miles to bring these things to the Central Plains, and they always gained a big harvest.

    ¡° However, Yang Zhao knew that Huang Mingyuan¡¯s trade routes were vast and there was no shortage of these Western Region jewels.  After looking at it twice, I didn't see anything different about this jewelry store.

    Huang Mingyuan entered the jewelry store and asked the store owner to bring out some sapphires and rubies.

    Yang Zhao discovered that although this store looked ordinary, there were a lot of rare goods.  He picked out a few rubies and planned to take them back as toys for his little daughter.

    Huang Mingyuan picked up a piece of inferior sapphire, put it in his hand, and asked the manager: "How much does this sapphire cost?"money?  "

    The person in charge raised a finger, which meant ten thousand dollars.

    However, Huang Mingyuan deliberately pretended not to know, and said: "Such a sapphire is really rare, and it is worth a million dollars. So I paid a million dollars to buy it?"

    As soon as Huang Mingyuan's words came out, both Yang Zhao and the store manager were stunned.  Is this customer stupid? There are buyers who pay more. This increase is still a hundred times.

    One million dollars, not to mention this piece of sapphire, can buy several bags of high-quality blue and white stones.

    Yang Zhao looked at the sapphire in Huang Mingyuan's hand and couldn't see anything special about it. It was a low-cost choice in terms of appearance and color. No one would buy it for even ten thousand dollars, not to mention one million dollars?

    "Brother Yuan, are you stupid? How can such a sapphire be worth a million dollars?"

    Huang Mingyuan smiled and said: "Don't worry, I say it's worth it. Buying this sapphire for one million is just to prevent its pearl from being covered in dust."

    Huang Mingyuan¡¯s words made Yang Zhao dubious.

    Yang Zhao took the gem in his hand and looked around for a while, but he really didn't find anything magical about it.

    The steward also confused Huang Mingyuan. Until Huang Mingyuan paid the money, the steward repeatedly confirmed whether Huang Mingyuan was crazy about gains and losses.  This is really weird, I met a fool.

    After walking out of the shop, Yang Zhao asked doubtfully: "Brother Yuan, what's so magical about this stone?"

    Huang Mingyuan smiled and said: "This is a sapphire with the worst quality. How can it be magical?" After saying that, Huang Mingyuan threw the gem on the road.

    Only then did Yang Zhao believe that the gem that Huang Mingyuan deliberately spent millions of dollars to buy was indeed a piece of waste stone.

    Yang Zhao knew that Huang Mingyuan had his own idea, so he stopped asking any more questions, and instead changed the topic and asked, "Didn't you say you were going to give a gift? But the stone you bought is also lost, what kind of gift are you going to give?"

    Huang Mingyuan said: "Didn't I finish delivering the gifts?"

    Yang Zhao was stunned after hearing this, and asked with a puzzled face: "Where did you give the gift?"

    Huang Mingyuan pointed at the shop just now, and Yang Zhao suddenly realized it and said, "I told you that you never make mistakes. How can you spend a million dollars to buy a stone today?"

    Huang Mingyuan said: "Did you know that the shop just now was owned by Xiang Guo Liu Shu? Many people in Chang'an know this."

    After hearing this, Yang Zhao's face condensed, and he somewhat understood Huang Mingyuan's intention.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
