It's messed up, it's all messed up.

In less than half an hour, the two sides who originally wanted to solve the problem by 'negotiation' turned into a large-scale armed brawl scene because of a plate.

Fortunately, the two sides fought and fought, but they still knew a sense of proportion, and they only fought in the middle of the hall, and no one thought of rushing up to pull Li Chengqian down and beat him.

Seeing that everyone was the guys, and there were many people covered with blood, Li Chengqian couldn't sit still.

He is the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, and he came over to participate in the negotiations on the order of his father, and it is difficult to explain if he really wants to take his life.

"Someone!"

Li Chengqian shouted.

The guards who had been waiting outside the door for a long time rushed in, using their scabbards to disperse the beating crowd and separate the two sides.

Zong Xiu was still scolding: "A few blind things that blow randomly, and a million troops, look at what you can endure." Dare to ask Lao Tzu's sin, come, you are coming. ”

Wang Nuo sat on the ground holding his leg and screamed in pain, no way, Zong Xiu's sliding shovel was too sharp, his ankle was swollen into steamed buns, and he didn't know if the bones were broken.

Li Chengqian coughed lightly: "Master Zongzi stays." It's really unpleasant to talk today, and I don't think everyone is interested in continuing to talk, so it's better to talk about it another day. ”

Zong Xiu scolded again: "If you talk about it again, you will be beaten!" The land of projectiles also dares to hold me accountable to the Heavenly Empire, do you give you face? ”

Wang Nuo also scolded angrily: "Since the Tang Dynasty has no intention of peace talks, let's wait for the soldiers to meet." When he returns, he will report truthfully to my lord. You are arrogant and unreasonable, and you are bullying, and I will never give up. ”

"Haha, then fight! Who's afraid of whom! My famous generals in the Tang Dynasty are like clouds, millions of lions, and you have a fart in Tugu. What else do you have besides bragging? If Murong Shun really dares to fight, will he still use self-surrender as the son-in-law of our Son of Heaven? Haha, as the old saying goes, a son-in-law is half-laer, and it is the first time I have seen the lord of the country who took the initiative to be a son. ”

"Huangkou Xiaoer, this official killed you!"

The lord of his own country was humiliated, and Wang Nuo struggled to get up, wanting to rush to Zongxiu's side.

Before he could rush over, he was knocked to the ground by the guards with a scabbard: "Be honest! What kind of place should you be! ”

"Well played! I said little brother, draw a knife and hack him to death. ”

Zong Xiu spared no effort to bewitch him.

Li Chengqian sighed and glanced at the guards: "Take them down for healing." ”

"Yes."

After dozens of guards took the Tuyuhun envoy away, after the fierce fight in the hall, the officials of Honglu Temple, who were still enthusiastic, had not come back to their senses.

They have been stable for too many years, and they have just started a fight. Jia Weixian hugged Lu Yuting's shoulders and laughed: "Brother Lu's courage is really the same as it was back then. ”

"Brother Jia, where is it, he is old and useless. Otherwise, it would have killed the old boy just now. ”

"Brother Chen, your arm is fine."

"It's okay, I just hit someone and I didn't see it clearly, and I hit the bench leg."

“……”

In the group fight, everyone was more or less injured, but they still laughed happily.

Li Chengqian walked down to comfort a few words, and just as he was talking, a guard came to report: "His Royal Highness the Prince, Gonggong Fan is here, saying that His Majesty has a decree to summon His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and all the officials of Honglu Temple into the palace." ”

"Uh...... Your Majesty......"

As soon as they heard Li Shimin's decree, the officials of Honglu Temple, who had just been enthusiastic, were shocked.

When we were fighting, everyone was enthusiastic, but it was refreshing.

However, the original intention of this consultation was peace talks.

"Master Hou, this ......"

Jia Weixian looked at Zong Xiu with his mouth open.

Zong Xiu grinned and said, "What are you afraid of, I am your superior, and I will naturally bear the responsibility if something goes wrong." Let's go, enter the palace to see Your Majesty. ”

Zong Xiu was not afraid at all, anyway, he knew that Lao Li had the intention of using troops against Tuyuhun. If he hadn't known this, he wouldn't have provoked Wang Nuo again and again.

From Lao Li's attitude towards Wang Nuo's bowl in the Linde Hall last time, Zong Xiu could see that Lao Li had the intention of attacking Tuyuhun and used him as a gun.

It's just that the thing about fighting is that the teacher is famous, and what Lao Li lacks most now is 'why to fight'.

Now the Tuyuhun envoys start beating people first, and then they fight back, that's called legitimate defense, afraid of a ball!

However, Zong Xiu knew Li Shimin's thoughts, and Jia Weixian, Lu Yuting, and other Honglu Temple officials didn't know.

Everyone followed Zong Xiu and entered the Linde Hall in fear, and as soon as they entered the hall, they knelt on the ground with a 'poof'.

"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty."

"Your Majesty, please punish you."

Except for Zong Xiu and Li Chengqian, the others knelt on the ground.

Above Jin Luan, Li Shimin's expression was strange, although he had a straight face, there was a smile in the corner of his eyes.

"What are your sins?"

"The ministers have failed to negotiate with the envoys of the [Sifang Pavilion] and Tuyuhun." Jia Weixian said.

Li Shimin looked at Zong Xiu and asked, "Zong Aiqing, what do you have to say?" ”

Zong Xiu straightened the clothes on his body and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that we are not guilty. It was all the Tuyuhun envoys who were bold and reckless, and they beat me in my Datang territory. A few of them couldn't see it, so they helped fight back, which was justified defense. ”

Saying that, Zong Xiu sighed again: "Hey, this group of barbarians doesn't know any etiquette. The minister often said to his men, 'To be a man, you must know how to respect the old and love the young'. But Your Majesty, look at how they beat their ministers. ”

Zong Xiu pointed to the wound on his head: "The minister is the youngest, and they beat Weichen with their hands, but they don't love the young." Jia Shaoqing is the oldest, and they beat Jia Shaoqing because they don't respect the elderly. Such an impolite barbarian should be taught a lesson. ”

“……”

Li Shimin rolled his eyes, daring to 'respect the old and love the young' is so understood by you.

Zong Xiu further shouted: "My Tang Dynasty is a state of etiquette, and the people are made with etiquette. Tuyuhun borders my Datang, but it is so arrogant and rude, it must be a lack of education in the country, how can I, Datang, as the suzerain, sit idly by? How can you watch the people of the kingdom live an impolite life? ”

"Your Majesty is wise and martial, and he will naturally reach out and pull them. In the opinion of the ministers, His Majesty should send the world-famous Confucians to spread the light of etiquette and ignite the recalcitrant people of Tuyuhun. ”

"Of course, our Confucianism is a treasure of the country, and the people of Tuyuhun are ferocious and barbaric, if they are injured or die when spreading the teachings, it will be a loss for the Tang Dynasty. The minister suggested sending a large army to accompany him to protect our country's Confucianism. ”

"In this way, it can not only educate the Tuyuhun barbarians, but also ensure the safety of my Tang Dynasty celebrities, and also demonstrate the benevolence and righteousness of His Majesty, which can be counted in one fell swoop."

Zong Xiu talked endlessly, but Li Shimin became more and more happy the more he listened.

Cow.

In just a few words, he was given an excuse to send troops.

Or send troops in the name of spreading etiquette, this excuse is absolutely gone!

"Haha, that's a good point! Zong Aiqing is reasonable. As the suzerain, my Datang should help the state in all aspects. Tuyuhun lacks education, and my Tang Dynasty is a state of etiquette, so I should carry one or two. ”
