Chapter 317: Hei Chi Chang Zhi (1)

Li Chengqian was somewhat unhappy because his plan to send troops to Tibet failed shortly after Songtsen Gampo's death. He

had not smiled for several days and was obviously still worried about missing such an opportunity. Then, a piece of news that made him very happy came.

The King of Baekje sent Hei Chi Chang Zhi and his family to him.

Li Chengqian wiped away the gloom of the past few days and finally put on a smile.

The carriage carrying Hei Chi Chang Zhi and his family finally arrived in Chang'an after a long journey from Baekje.

Along the way, the people of the Hei Chi family were shocked by the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. The difference between Baekje and the Tang Dynasty was like the difference between a super rich man and a beggar.

There are many big cities here. Except for the royal city of Baiji, other cities can't compare at all.

When they came to Chang'an, they were shocked by the prosperity of Chang'an.

After Hei Chi Changzhi's family arrived in Chang'an, Li Chengqian did not summon Hei Chi Changzhi immediately, but let them stay in Chang'an.

He treated them to delicious food and drink every day, and Li Chengqian even gave them rewards from time to time, so that they could bathe in the emperor's grace.

As time went by, most of the people in the Hei Chi family fell in love with life in Chang'an. They

no longer missed Baiji. After all, who would be willing to live a life of misery when they can live a peaceful life?

If something goes wrong, you won't even know how you died.

There are three kingdoms on the peninsula, but they will eventually be unified. When that happens, they will still be ruined.

Instead of that, it is better to settle down here.

Anyway, no matter who unifies the peninsula in the end, it will definitely not be Baekje. Baekje will only perish. They know this in their hearts.

Except for Hei Chi Chang, the remaining few are still struggling. It is only a matter of time before they fall.

One day, they will fall in love with the life here like everyone else, and hope to settle here forever.

Hei Chi Changzhi has never figured out what the emperor of the Tang Dynasty wants to do by bringing him and his family to Chang'an?

...

"What's going on with Hei Chi Chang's family recently?" Li Chengqian asked after the morning court.

"The people of the Hei Chi family get up on time every day and prepare their meals. Hei Chi Chang Zhi always starts martial arts training in the morning." Wang Quan reported the recent situation of the Hei Chi family to Li Chengqian.

Since Hei Chi Chang Zhi came to Chang'an, it has become one of his jobs to report the situation of the Hei Chi family to Li Chengqian at any time.

Wang Quan was very confused. The emperor issued an edict in a hurry to ask the King of Baekje for people, but after arriving in Chang'an, he was not in a hurry. He left them aside and kept asking about each other's daily living habits.

Why did he do this? I don't know, and I don't dare to ask.

Li Chengqian listened quietly to Wang Quan's report and felt that it was time to meet Hei Chi Chang Zhi, who was feared by Tubo.

"Let the officials of Baiji summon Hei Chi Changzhi to the palace. I want to see him." Li Chengqian said.

During this period, Li Chengqian often asked the officials of Baiji in Chang'an to get in touch with Hei Chi Changzhi.

"Yes!" Wang Quan accepted the order and immediately sent someone out of the palace to summon Hei Chi Changzhi to the palace to meet the emperor.

Hei Chi Changzhi was still very surprised to know that the emperor wanted to summon him, but he was also relieved. He had waited for so long and finally waited for this day.

Soon he would know why the emperor of a great country wanted to bring him, a little-known person, from such a far place as Baiji to Chang'an.

After washing up, Hei Chi Changzhi followed the officials of Baiji in the Tang Dynasty into the palace to meet the emperor.

"Everyone, Heichi Changzhi is here!" the eunuch reported to Li Chengqian.

Heichi Changzhi behind the eunuch was secretly looking at Li Chengqian standing in front of them.

Li Chengqian was wearing a red and yellow robe, a Yishan crown on his head, a nine-ring belt around his waist, and Liuhe boots on his feet.

The Yishan crown of the Tang Dynasty and the Yishan crown of the Ming Dynasty are somewhat different in shape, and the style is more complicated than that of the Ming Dynasty, and not as gorgeous as the Yishan crown of the Ming Dynasty.

The eunuch saw that Heichi Changzhi behind him did not move at all, but just stood stupidly behind him, and he couldn't help feeling a little dissatisfied. He blamed Heichi Changzhi for being impolite. Once the emperor was angry and blamed them, they would be in trouble.

"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and pay your respects to His Majesty!" The eunuch turned his head and glared, and said in a low voice.

"Foreign minister Baijidashuai and Dafeng Commander Heizhi Changzhi pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Tang!" Heizhi Changzhi saluted Li Chengqian.

"No need to be polite, just stand up!" Li Chengqian said.

When Heizhi Changzhi walked in, Li Chengqian noticed him. He was indeed more than seven feet tall, with a strong back and a strong waist. He looked very brave.

The most important point is that Heizhi Changzhi is good at night raids, and Tubo has suffered many times in this regard.

But they have always been unable to deal with Heizhi Changzhi. After all, Heizhi Changzhi is not only good at night raids, but also very good at deploying troops.

"Thank you, His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Tang!" Heizhi Changzhi thanked him.

"When I was in Chang'an, I often heard you Baekje people say that you, Hei Chi Chang Zhi, are a brave and strategic person."

"Let's not talk about whether you have strategies or not, but looking at your figure, you are indeed brave, but why haven't I heard about your deeds in the war with Goguryeo?"

"Could it be that the so-called strategies you Baekje people talk about are just empty words, and you are at most braver than others." Li Chengqian said disapprovingly.

Although he wanted to recruit Hei Chi Chang Zhi, he couldn't show too much eagerness, lest he bargain on the spot.

Hei Chi Chang Zhi was also considered to be strategic and brave, but he had never been able to use his talents in Baekje. It was because the Baekje King looked down on him and could not use him, and the Baekje court was dominated by treacherous people.

It was impossible for Hei Chi Chang Zhi to make achievements in Baekje. Although his position in Baekje was not low, he had no real power.

The so-called county commander was just a military officer who maintained law and order, not a general of the main army of Baekje.

After hearing what Li Chengqian said, Hei Chi Chang Zhi felt a little embarrassed and decided to argue with Li Chengqian.

"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty! Although I am not talented, I am also familiar with military strategies..." Hei Chi Chang Zhi talked a lot, trying his best to prove his ability, not only that he was well-developed in limbs, but also that he was smart in mind.

It is not about brute force, but about using a flexible brain to analyze the situation, make effective judgments, and come up with the best plan.

Hei Chi Chang Zhi was talking vigorously, but Li Chengqian didn't quite understand. He was not good at leading troops to fight. Therefore, he didn't quite understand the situation in this area, and it was hard to judge whether Hei Chi Chang Zhi was just talking about military affairs on paper.

Li Chengqian didn't dwell on this. Hei Chi Chang Zhi was able to make Tubo and Turks feel afraid, so he couldn't be a man who only talked about military affairs on paper and boasted about what he talked about.
