For hungry people, it is a good thing to be dumped at the right time.

At first, a group of masters looked at them and smiled more obscenely than they did at Li Daozong, so that the unlucky baby who was sent back to escort the prisoner thought that he had just climbed out of a pit and then entered the pit. Later, although it took some effort, it was a good thing, and the two babies hurriedly went back with their respective fathers to change their lines and prepare for the evening performance.

The parrot buddies left, and Mr. Li was first happy that the two little helpers came back at the critical moment, and then took out Wang Jue's recital again to look at it carefully. Why is Mr. Li's face like a chameleon, on the one hand, he is happy that he can take the opportunity to attack the Li family, and it is best to let them be honest once and stop using their brains.

On the other hand, depression is accompanied by grievances. Let's take into account that the family is blood relatives after all, and wants to cut branches for them to develop well, which is completely different from having to tolerate them because of the existence of the emperor. As far as Li Shimin is concerned, he is very relieved that the Li family is not involved in the affairs of King Han, and as for this time, if it does not involve rebellion, he does not want to have a bad reputation for doing things against his own people.

However, he felt that the Li family was so fearless because he thought that as long as the emperor was there, we would not dare to touch them, which made the old middle school two, who was used to being in charge, very uncomfortable. Don't dare to take care of your father, all the hatred is on the Li family, and this time it is necessary to let them know why the flowers are so red.

After thinking about this, I will think about the turtle shell. According to the official letter of Wang County, this is not the first time that the turtle shell has appeared, but Ah Lu only wrote back and did not let the turtle shell be sent. Tsk, the pig wrote the letter, it should be Sun Xingzhi's ghostwriting. It is estimated that he also wrote a letter to Zhao Deyan, but Lao Zhao has not yet returned from his envoy to the Wa Kingdom.

Like Erxiao, since the treasure map incident, Li Shimin has thought about treasures when he sees this kind of thing. Wang Xiangong said that it was very strange for this thing to appear one after another, and he didn't dare to let the disciples bring it back at will, and she would study it first if there was no danger, and then present it when she returned to Chang'an.

Mr. Li cherished his life and was still satisfied with Wang Jue's cautious arrangement. The only thing to worry about is that if Wang Xiangong reveals some mystery and that thing is too good, she wants to swallow it alone, so she feels very uneasy when she thinks about it. However, it's almost time for dinner, so let's settle the matter in front of us first.

Just when Li Shimin had just ordered people to go and see how they were prepared, Li Daozong, who had just been ordered to interrogate the murderer, came. Looking at his sweaty appearance, Li Shimin frowned and asked, "What's wrong, but what happened?"

Li Daozong pulled out an ugly smile and scolded his mother in his heart, "It's the same as what is written on the Wang County Gong's fold, the literati who probably knows the most inside information has not admitted the matter of his transmission, no matter how you ask, they say that they are ordinary folk caravans, plus they have civilian household registration, Weichen doesn't know what to do." ”

Finally relieved himself and dissipated his anger, hearing Li Daozong say this, Li Shimin's anger rushed to the top of his head, "Look at it, don't let them kill themselves." Aren't you going to be tried after reading the twists and turns, so you use the method of Wang Xiangong to settle the illegitimate children of the Li family to deal with them, I don't believe that they all jumped out of the cracks in the stones! People always have a weakness, even if they can't find their families, you can start from the side, you just think of a way according to this line of thought. ”

"That'...... Can the Li family summon me to ask?"

Li Shimin thought for a moment and replied: "Don't leak the news, you just interrogate these people secretly, and I will tell you what to do next in a few days." ”

Li Daozong has a headache, he is from the same line as Li Shimin, and he is naturally related to the Li family. It was only a few days after finally finishing the matter of King Han that it was a person surnamed Li who was looking for something for him, and the days couldn't be passed, thinking about Cui Zhixian's gloating eyes, my heart was congested. If it weren't for the fact that his surname Li was not good for outsiders to investigate, he would have pushed the matter to Cui Zhixian as usual.

Come on, the trouble can't be pushed out, and no matter how much the saint says, he can be severely punished, so Li Daozong has to go back and continue the interrogation. Judging by the meaning of the saint, he doesn't have to attend today's dinner, and he was looking forward to this excitement, which is really unlucky!

After Li Daozong left, Li Shimin called the secret guard to go to Lianshui County to find Wang Jue and put him in charge of monitoring the trotting hall. As for how to deal with the Li family, Mr. Li hasn't figured it out yet, thinking that this trotting hall may be useful, and Wang Jue's servants are all trained in martial arts, so it is more reassuring for us to send someone ourselves.

It just so happened that the secret guard left and the little chamberlain came to Mr. Li for a banquet, thinking about the good show that was about to be staged later, Li Shimin's pursed lips finally rose.

Coming to the main hall dedicated to banquets, Li Shimin's eyes swept down, seeing that both the envoys of the two countries and the actors of his own country had arrived, and someone who had been waiting for a long time was very satisfied and sat down in the first place.

After Li Shimin sat down, he pretended to touch his stomach, "I am very happy that a guest has come from afar!

Cheng Yanjin picked up the wine cup and drank a glass for himself, and then poured it full and said to the envoys of the two countries: "You are also hungry, aren't you? Don't worry, the food will be served later, let's go first." After saying that, he drank three glasses of wine.

Damn, what's going on?!

Looking at Li Shimin's behavior like the landlord in the countryside, General Cheng, who is famous in the Tang Dynasty, actually drank first past the monarch, and the rest of the people are accustomed to it, why is the situation in the Tang Dynasty completely different from what the spies reported? !

It is said that the envoys of Goguryeo and Baekje arrived this morning and were arranged by the people of Hongroji Temple to rest, and the purpose of their trip was very obvious, and they knew what was happening in the Wa Kingdom to explain it clearly. I thought that I would be summoned by the Tang Emperor after a little rest, and no matter how bad it was, I would have the opportunity to appear in the morning tomorrow, but I didn't expect to pass through the court to meet the direct dinner.

This is a problem, because the people of Honglu Temple did not inform them of the follow-up arrangements until it was close to the meal time, so that the people of the two countries who had already prepared a set of plans were completely confused. In addition, the behavior of the Tang monarchs and ministers was completely different from the information they received, and the envoys of the two countries did not dare to act rashly without discussing them privately.

Seeing that Cheng Yanjin had already put down the wine cup and looked at them, the envoys of the two countries hurriedly drank three wine bowls in return. It is said that General Cheng not only has more military achievements, but he has done many more ridiculous things than military achievements, and we can't offend important people before we finish our business.

Unbeknownst to them, they had just put down the wine cup when they heard a few angry snorts. The first to bear the brunt is Li Shimin, and most of the rest are civil ministers, and the two countries came to make the collective dumbfounded, what is going on?

There is no need for them to ask, Cheng Yanjin automatically answered, "It is said that those who can be sent as envoys have received serious etiquette training, you see, just now I toasted directly from everyone, and it is not strange that people come to make envoys." Therefore, let me pass the past yesterday when I crossed over your first drink, and don't talk about demotion. ”

The dish was put on the table before it reached its mouth, and the envoys of the two countries were directly confused. In a small country like them, whose combat strength is inferior to others, the envoys were asked to complete the tasks assigned by the king, and they were also frequently instructed not to participate in the internal strife of others. Fortunately, they not only participated passively, but also gained a reputation for not being polite.

Almost everyone knows what kind of character Cheng Biting Jin of the Tang Dynasty is, if today's events get out, others will at most say that General Cheng is becoming more and more unruly, and they will be sprayed to death. Without it, people are martial ruffians, but we are the face of a country that has been specially trained.

After the envoys of the two countries came out of the confusion, they immediately knelt down to Li Shimin and bowed, and the Goguryeo envoy spoke first, "We first came to Datang, and we were shocked by the prosperity of Datang along the way. ”

The envoy of Baekje hurriedly answered, "We are the same! If you let the lord of the country know that we are so rude and I am afraid that I will lose my life when I go back, please forgive Emperor Tang!"

The big-mouthed Cheng bit Jin and crossed Li Shimin to speak, "Emma, is your king so powerful?

If there is a needle and thread in the hand, the two countries will rush to sew up Cheng Jin's mouth. Look at the people who originally showed sympathy when they heard Cheng Yanjin's words and were taken away, their thoughts showed frightened expressions, and they knew that Fang Cai's big worship and compliments were in vain.

However, Li Shimin once again did not play according to the routine, he scolded Cheng Yanjin lightly: "Don't talk nonsense, do you treat your courtiers as family members like me?" After speaking, he smiled and looked at the envoy who was kneeling together, "I forgive you for your innocence, after all, the prosperity of my Tang Dynasty is not comparable to other countries, and I can fully understand your feelings." Tell me, what are you doing here?"

Although they had carried another blame for their own king's mistreatment of the minister, the envoys of the two countries were both excited when they heard Li Shimin's final question, and finally had the opportunity to tell the matter properly.

Who knows, someone interjected again, Cheng Tieniu said: "Report to the saint, the grass people see that they seem to be hungry, and the food is also on the case, why don't we eat first." ”

Since Cheng Tieniu did not have an official status and title, he could only sit at the end of the banquet, and Cheng Tieniu arrived later than them, so the envoys of the two countries had not noticed such a person before. At this time, I heard that someone had ruined the good thing again, and the envoys of the two countries followed the prestige, and this was not a concern, and the two envoys almost shouted out in fright.

With this face, how can the people of the Japanese country be in the Tang Dynasty? Aren't their families all dead?

All kinds of thoughts were shuttling back and forth in his mind, and when he didn't know what to do, Li Shimin said: "Cheng Biting Jin, look at what you teach your apprentices like." If it weren't for his simplicity, I would have beaten him. ”

Cheng Yanjin smiled when he heard this, "The Holy Lord doesn't know our master and apprentice yet, although we can't act on the face, but no one is more heartfelt than us!"

Li Shimin nodded in agreement, and then said: "Cheng Tieniu is also reasonable, now is the time for dinner, if you have anything to talk about tomorrow morning." ”

With such a push, the envoys of the two countries can only return to their positions again. Frightened and disobeyed the king's explanation to the Tang Emperor and bowed to the Tang Emperor, but it turned out to be the same as Fang Cai's situation, which was too sad. There is even more worrying, why is the surname of the Japanese people Cheng or Cheng Yanjin's apprentice, does he look like him or does he hide his identity and sneak into the Tang Dynasty, and even the Tang Emperor has reached some kind of agreement with the Japanese faction?

The last one may be the most frightening, but if it is true, it will definitely not make Cheng Tieniu blatantly jump in front of us. Thinking of this, the heart of the mention fell slightly. The two countries are looking at each other in a vague way, everything is different from what they have calculated, and now there is such a big crisis, today we can only take one step at a time.

Don't try to achieve anything, just don't lose face, and we'll discuss the strategy again in the evening. Since the two were often sent to work together in the Wa Kingdom, they knew each other's intentions with just one exchange of glances.

The table in front of everyone was already full of delicacies, and the music was gradually playing, Li Shimin gathered up the wine cup and said: "I have received the tribute you sent, let's first pay tribute to the two kings and a glass of wine." With that, he poured the wine from the glass to his side.

If the envoys of the two countries knew what a roller coaster was, then they would inevitably say that their hearts had risen and fallen like a roller coaster since entering the temple. Tribute, we are not a subject country of the Tang Dynasty, how can giving a few gifts become a protection fee? Could it be that the Tang Emperor misunderstood that we were here to attach? !

Besides, why are you still spilling wine, our king is alive!!

Looking at the actions of the people around him, except for Cheng Yanjin, who wanted to follow suit and was stopped by the generals beside him, the rest of the people laughed a little embarrassed. Look at Li Shimin again, he is already so happy that he is full of wine and raises a wine cup at them again. Pouting, it seems that the Tang Emperor did not deliberately insult, but was uneducated.

Now is not the time to tear your face, not only the two countries are patient, but the Tang monarchs and ministers are also patient. Thinking of the Han people who were killed by the two countries during the war of the Sui Dynasty and made Jingguan, they wanted to level the peninsula now, but it was not the time, so they could only be so naïve to relieve their anger.

"Come, let's all drink together this time!"

Pulled back to their minds by Li Shimin's words, everyone began to enter the normal process of drinking and dining. As plans have been disrupted one after another, both countries are making them forget about a major event. Originally, they were going to lower their posture and explain things clearly, so as not to damage their country's face too much, and then let the warriors they brought have a friendly exchange with the young generals of Tang Guo.

Everyone had something in their hearts, and no one informed the warriors on both sides that they were no longer acting according to plan, so at the end of the meal, a big man at the end of the Goguryeo mission said: "I heard that the Tang people are good at martial arts, since everyone is over the meal, why don't we learn one or two and perform?"

The one arranged by Baekje also answered, "Interesting! If Emperor Tang allows it, can you take me with you?"

This is one of the two intentions of the bigwigs who originally summoned Cheng Tieniu, looking at the age of the people sent by the two parties, people like Cheng Yanjin must not go up to bully people. It was possible for Su Dingfang and Xi Jun to buy such a promising young general, but everyone felt that it was not enough to frustrate people, so they thought about letting those who were still studying abuse people. Cheng bit Jin and always boasted, but everyone was not so confident in Cheng Tieniu's martial arts, but fortunately, when he was hesitating, Li Chongyi and Cheng Chumo came.

For the two of them, such an opportunity to become famous is naturally seized. On the way home to change clothes, they also said that if the people who stayed in Lianshui County knew that there was such a good opportunity, they would definitely rush to come. Although the uncles had already said that they had overheard them talking about the plan, but seeing that the other party was silent when the meal was about to end, the two babies almost thought that they had changed their plans.

At this time, listening to the shouting of the big men on both sides, Cheng Chumo hurriedly answered: "This is a good idea, I'll compare with you!"

Li Chongyi is relatively elegant, "Although I have no official position and am studying, I still make it possible to relieve everyone's boredom." ”

Li Shimin clapped his hands and laughed as if he was very interested: "Okay, let's have a friendly match!" After speaking, he casually introduced to the envoys of the two countries who the two people who had just spoken. 166 Reading Network
