Chapter 112: The World Returns to Tang
(Part 2)
On the banquet, the civil and military officials stood on the left and right, while Songtsen Gampo and Lu Dongzan sat in the second seat, in the same position as Li Chengqian.
As for Li Shimin and Empress Changsun, they are above the throne.
At this time, Li Shimin's face was full of red light. People are in good spirits when they are happy, and it is him who is said.
Because just now, Li Chengqian gave him a lot of face.
He is a good face, and when he has a light on his face, he is naturally happy.
It can be seen from his love of showing off on weekdays that this product likes to save face.
At the same time, in his heart, Li Chengqian's status was once again raised.
He also whispered to the eldest grandson queen: "Qian'er seems to have grown up, understands my intentions, and has two thousand horses for nothing, this is with me!" ”
"Qian'er has the demeanor of the emperor back then!"
Empress Eldest Sun said.
"Of course, he is the son of me and Guanyin, and he has inherited all our advantages! If he is not strong, who is strong? ”
Empress Changsun just nodded yes, as Li Chengqian's biological mother, she was also stained with some light.
Li Chengqian was on the side, he had already heard it clearly, and he was scolding in his heart, Li Shimin, you stinky and shameless! Lao Tzu's cleverness is his own hard work, how can it be your credit! Stinky and shameless.
But he didn't talk about it, just watched Songtsen Gampo and Lu Buzan blowing their beards and staring there.
At this time, they must be unhappy in their hearts and want to leave.
But for the sake of face, and there are some relations between countries, they had to participate in this banquet.
Otherwise, they don't give Li Shimin face, and if they don't give Li Shimin face in Datang, they don't have to live.
This place is not Tibet, so they can't help it.
Even Songtsen Gampo wanted to leave, but Lu Dongzan pulled him back.
Therefore, Songtsen Gampo did not have a good face. It's like someone else owes him millions.
At this time, Li Shimin saw that everyone had arrived, so he spoke: "Today, I am very happy, and I have a special banquet to welcome guests from afar!" ”
As soon as his words fell, Lu Dongzan immediately came out and said, "I thanked His Majesty King Tang for his hospitality on behalf of Zanpu. ”
If this person can become a national teacher, he must also have his ability.
understands diplomatic strategies very well, so when Li Shimin said this, how he should respond, did not fall a bit.
This is what a qualified national teacher should do.
Li Shimin was very happy.
Then he said, "Go back to your seat!" Come on, go to the country wine! Guests from afar! ”
After that, everyone wondered, what is the national wine?
When did Datang have a national drink? Why don't you know.
This is strange, could it be the wine that Li Shimin secretly hid?
It wasn't until someone brought the wine out that everyone understood what was going on.
When the wine is opened, the whole hall is filled with a large amount of wine.
Some ministers began to talk about it.
Is this a thousand days drunk?
No! This wine is more mellow than a thousand days drunk, not like a thousand days drunk.
It's a taste that's addictive.
When did I have a national drink?
These people discussed, but Cheng Yanjin said with great disdain: "What a group of guys who have never seen the world!" This wine is sorghum wine! The emperor's newly sealed national wine! ”
Now someone asked, why is it called sorghum wine?
Li Chengqian just looked at Cheng Yanjin on the side, this product should have to answer: "It's a wine made from sorghum, of course it's called sorghum wine!" ”
Sure enough, he really did so.
"Just like rice wine, the wine made from sorghum is naturally called sorghum wine."
As soon as he said it, Li Chengqian said: "No! There's a deeper meaning to it. ”
At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on Li Chengqian.
Cheng Yanjin was even more puzzled.
Why not? What's the point?
The same is true for Li Shimin.
This national wine order was also suddenly thought of by Li Shimin, and it was also used in the ten jars of wine taken from the Hero Building that day. Each of these big jars weighs 100 catties, and the ten jars are 1,000 catties of wine.
This Li Shimin is really good at borrowing flowers to offer Buddha. The sake he gave became the national drink.
Li Chengqian paused for a long time, and everyone was a little anxious.
"Qian'er, you just said yes, so why is this wine called sorghum wine? What's the point? ”
Li Shimin asked.
At the same time, Songtsen Gampo and others were also depressed, how could it be called sorghum wine?
"Father, the meaning of this sorghum wine is not as simple as sorghum, but it has a deeper meaning."
This is kind of getting everyone's attention.
So what is it?
Li Chengqian said slowly: "The red sorghum plants are like holding red torches high, and the implication that the emperor wants to use them as a national wine is self-evident. It shows that my Datang is burning like a torch, and it is becoming more and more vigorous! So it's for the national drink! And this fire is of great significance, just a little spark, can set the prairie on fire, there is Datang in the world, Datang is the world! ”
This seems to be the same thing
To tell the truth, even Li Shimin didn't think about it that way, he also knew that this wine was called sorghum wine.
But it still made him laugh.
Good, good......
"Yes, yes, that's what I thought! My Datang is like fire, and sorghum wine is the national wine of my Datang! The world belongs to Datang, and Datang is the world! ”
As soon as these words came out, some people showed embarrassment on their faces, after all, this world includes Tubo and other countries. No one is happy to include their own country in the Tang Dynasty. But what can they say? In other people's land, you can only silently admit it.
"Yes! The father also used it to entertain VIPs, proving that he valued VIPs very much! ”
As soon as these words came out, Li Shimin's face was bright and full of face, and at the same time, Lu Dongzan stood up again.
With a rather moved expression, he said: "So, thank you Tang Wang for your kindness!" ”
If Li Chengqian said it a few more times, I'm afraid this old guy would come out a few more times.
As for Songtsen Gampo, he must have been depressed in his heart, they didn't know that this was Li Chengqian's first step.
Next, will be their nightmare.
So Li Chengqian continued: "Since that's the case! So the distinguished guests of Tubo, if they can go back soberly, it will be a waste of my Datang's national wine! ”
The implication of this is to make them drunk here.
Just now, people didn't know what Li Chengqian wanted to do, but now everyone knows that hundreds of civil and military officials gave a thumbs up and said: His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is wise!
Li Shimin also looked at Li Chengqian with great appreciation, and he must have thought in his heart that Li Chengqian had done a good job this time.
And Empress Eldest Sun also couldn't stop nodding.
This kid really surprises everyone.
"The wine is more affectionate, and we have received the friendship of the Tang King. But this wine ......"
"Not everyone can afford this wine!"
Li Chengqian then interrupted Lu Dongzan's words.
