Chapter 749: Tubo Comes to Envoy
Tubo sent an envoy at this time?
The ministers were amazed.
What did they do by sending messengers at this time?
Cheng Yanjin also knew the severity, so he didn't ask anything anymore.
Fang Xuanling said:
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's not a good thing for the Tubo people to send people here at this time."
And Du Ruhui also said: "As far as the minister knows, it is Songtsen Gampo who is in power in Tubo now!" His father was killed some time ago! ”
Li Chengqian heard it, huh?
He had warned Songtsen Gampo before, but he still couldn't stop the tide of history, and his father was still poisoned.
Later, Songtsen Gampo was directly sent to the throne by his uncle.
Songtsen Gampo is a very powerful person, and in the end, he will build Tibet into a strong country.
That was history, and now it is very difficult for Datang to get up.
What is the purpose of bringing the messenger over at this time? There must be nothing good either.
"Do you think I'll see it, or won't I see it?"
Li Shimin asked.
He was asking it on purpose.
杜如晦 says:
"The minister thinks it's better not to see it, the last time the prince of Tubo wanted to marry the princess of my dynasty, we rejected it once, this time it must be because of this matter, right? The minister thinks it's best to hang him there! ”
Why do you want to marry a princess of the Tang Dynasty? This is an existence that no one can tolerate.
Li Jing also said: "That's right, this Tubo person is really interesting, and he actually wants to marry my princess!" It's so beautiful! ”
And Fang Xuanling asked: "What do you think you can hear what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince means?" ”
Everyone still wants to hear Li Chengqian's opinion, after all, his opinion is more referential.
"Gao Ming, what do you think?"
Li Shimin asked.
"Your Majesty, Erchen thinks you can see each other, can you let Erchen talk to him at that time?"
It is okay to see the envoy, but Li Chengqian will talk to him.
He had the opposite opinion from the crowd, but they didn't have anything against him, they just listened and wanted to know what he was going to do.
"It's good! By the way, let him see my Tang Zhizhen Guanshen Cannon! ”
Li Shimin said bluntly.
He agreed, because he also wanted to know what the Tibetans were going to do.
If the Tibetan people are allowed to witness together, then there is still a certain deterrent force for the Tibetans, and in the future, it is also an excellent choice to suppress the Tibetans with military strength and have some deterrent effect on them. The best thing to do is to let them retreat, which is the best policy.
At this time, Li Chengqian hurriedly ordered.
"Li Kai, go prepare more shells and gunpowder!"
Li Kai received his order and went down to prepare.
At the same time, another soldier came to report.
"Your Majesty, the Turki Khan is also a messenger!"
"Huh? What's going on today? ”
Another messenger came.
Li Shimin muttered.
At this moment, people from two countries sent messengers.
Li Shimin didn't think about it either.
"Let him come outside the east gate and join the Tibetan envoy!"
Since we are here, let's meet together, and in front of these 100,000 people.
In order to strengthen the power of the Tang Dynasty!
"Yes!"
At this time, everyone is looking forward to what it will be like when they face the envoys of these two countries.
At the same time, it was also time for Li Chengqian to perform.
After a while, two people came to the east gate with two teams of men.
The two teams were holding some rare treasures in their hands.
These two people are very different from each other.
One is a Tibetan, the other is a Turkic.
"Tubo envoy Lun Zhu Taokai pays a visit to His Majesty the King of Tang!"
The envoy of Tibet was very respectful.
Another Turkic envoy was not weak, and he saluted Li Shimin.
"Ashhulu, the envoy of the Turki Khan, pays a visit to His Majesty the King of Tang!"
In this way, Li Shimin waved his hand.
"No need to be polite."
At this time, Li Chengqian stood up.
"Why are you here this time?"
Lunzhu Taokai and Ashhulu glanced at each other.
Cheng Yanjin was directly unhappy, and shouted: "Bold, this is my Tang Prince, you don't reply quickly!" ”
Only then did the two realize that they had lost their manners.
It turns out that this young man is the prince of the Tang Dynasty.
Lun Zhu Taokai first said: "I thought that the prince of the Tang Dynasty was originally a nine-year-old appearance, but I don't want to be an adult, it turns out that the information is wrong!" ”
"It's rude! I didn't expect you to be the crown prince either! ”
The two of them still had an impression of Li Chengqian on the child, so they were the first to rule out the fact that Li Chengqian was the prince.
The nine-year-old looks like this, and he is too anxious. You still can't look at the surface of everything, otherwise you will be confused by the surface.
So the two of them did not directly reply to Li Chengqian's question.
It wasn't until Cheng Biting Jin screamed that they realized that it was not good.
Li Chengqian didn't care, and asked again.
"Tell me, what are you doing here! You speak first! ”
Li Chengqian pointed to Lun Zhutao Kaidao.
Lunzhu Taokai said: "I came this time to congratulate His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on his wedding! ”
After speaking, he pointed to the people behind him, they were carrying some of the more valuable things in Tibet, and this time they came with a big gift.
Ashhulu also said: "So am I! I was ordered to come to congratulate His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on his wedding! ”
As soon as the words of the two came out, they were somewhat suspicious of showing goodwill. Datang is strong, and it is normal to show goodwill.
If it was Ashhulu, it would still be excusable, because of Tuli's relationship, his concern is also a very normal thing.
For the marriage of the Tang prince, it is natural to send someone over to congratulate him.
This is the style of a big country, but whenever there is something happy in a big country, some small countries will generally send people to congratulate them.
The Tibetans and Turks are relatively close to the Tang Dynasty.
The ancients traveled more than 100 miles in a day, and if it was too far, sometimes it took two or three months to get there.
Tibet and the Turks are considered to be close. For example, some countries such as Goguryeo are far away.
The last time it was announced that the prince's wedding date was just a month away, even if they traveled overnight, they might not be able to arrive.
Moreover, these countries are not very friendly to Datang.
Even when the notice arrives, they may not come.
Speaking of congratulations, Li Chengqian said bluntly:
"Oh? In this way, the king wants to thank your masters! ”
Then he asked Lun Zhutao Kai: "Your Tubo King Songtsen Gampo must have something else to do with you coming this time, right?" ”
When Li Chengqian asked this, Lun Zhu Taokai's face really changed.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really a clever plan! Indeed, my king has other things to ask for! ”
Lunzhu Taokai said bluntly.
"Tell me, what brought you here!"
Li Chengqian asked again.
Everyone focused their attention on this envoy, even the Turkic envoy was just as curious about what the Tibetans wanted to do.
Lunzhu Taokai hesitated for a while before slowly opening his mouth.
