Chapter 738: Back to the Abyss

Obeying the soft and losing, it does not mean that you will retreat thousands of miles, Tubo is a powerful country in the world that fights against the Tang Dynasty, a strong country has the dignity of a strong country, even if it is lost, the posture should be a little better, it is best to leave a stubborn back to the world, and gradually drift away in the sunset......

This is the picture sketched by Lu Dongzan himself, which is very tragic and touching, at least he himself was moved. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The Tang Dynasty can't be easily allowed to succeed, and now it's no longer a matter of marrying a princess or not, but a rebellion against the dignity of Tibet.

Therefore, Lu Dongzan's plan is perfect, as the prime minister of Tubo, he is naturally a person with extraordinary intelligence, and the title of Tang Guojun's ministers is just a child's childish play in his eyes, not worth mentioning.

Pull out the jackpot, and then throw the fruits of victory back to the prince of Zhenla, let the failed prince marry Princess Wencheng, and slap the monarchs and ministers of the Tang State in front of the envoys of all countries in the world, this kind of humiliation can make the Tang State unable to raise its head for at least ten years, and His Majesty the Emperor is even more embarrassed to call himself "Tian Khan", and he can't even do the most basic fairness and justice, what qualifications does he have to call "Tian Khan"?

With full of indignation, Lu Dongzan secretly made a decision.

…………

British Mansion.

Li Jifu has been very lively recently.

The excitement is due to the happy event of the Li family, Chang'an City is not big, the powerful are basically concentrated in Zhuque Street, for the founding heroes of Chang'an City, any wind and grass in the family of colleagues can not be hidden, the British prince Li Jixi admitted that the nephew who had been separated for many years, this matter has long been known to everyone, so Li Ji's family became lively.

The people who came to the door were all the powerful people of the dynasty, all of whom were the ministers of Conglong who followed Li Shimin to fight the country, and those with slightly smaller official positions were not qualified to go to the gate of the Li family.

The eldest grandson Wuji, Kong Yingda, Chu Suiliang, and a group of military generals who have been in close contact with each other on weekdays, and even Wei Zheng, a famous-stirring stick in the court who rarely interacts with martial artists, came to join in the fun.

So Li Ji's mansion has been in an endless stream of guests recently, and the guests have come one after another, and the people who come to visit are not only congratulators, but also to vent their jealousy, after all, Li Ji, the nephew who has been lost for many years, is a well-known figure in recent years, and he is not in the court, but there is already a legend of him in the court, in his twenties, he is as old as the sons of the powerful family, and those gentlemen are still doing the business of shouting five and drinking six fox friends and dog friends to get together to drink and hunt in the Qinglou and compete for jealousy, but people have already made countless meritorious contributions with their own skills, Although he was recently deposed, everyone knows that this is only temporary, and His Majesty has the heart to restore his official title sooner or later.

A young man with an unlimited future prospect, although he often causes trouble when he does things, he is a stable person, he has been in the Chang'an elite circle for many years, and there is no enemy, everyone loves this guy very much, such a person has inexplicably become Li Ji's nephew, and he is really blind to everyone's eyes......

Therefore, Li Ji's mansion has recently been full of guests, and everyone has a little jealousy, a good child, has become your Li family, there is such a competitive junior, it is certain that the foundation of the British government in Chang'an is becoming more and more solid, with Li Su's nephew, the Li family is equal to a strong branch, this branch and Li Ji is a prosperous relationship, the worst thing is that although Li Su is young, but now His Majesty attaches great importance to him, what Li Su said, His Majesty will listen carefully no matter what, invisibly, Li Ji's voice in the court has also become heavier, and the power of the Li family can be said to be at its peak at this time.

The guests are not very polite when they come to the door, the eldest grandson Wuji Kong Yingda These ministers are somewhat polite, Cheng Biting Jin's gang of old killers are not so particular, in recent days, the veterans have come to Li Ji's house every day to report, Li Ji has no choice but to hold a banquet every day, like a flowing water banquet for three days, the jars and dishes in the house have been broken countless times, these veterans' wine is basically unsightly, drinking too much not only scolds the street, but also sprinkles a drunken madness, the tiles on the roof of the main hall of Li Ji's house have been lifted by Cheng Biting Jin, It can be seen what Li Ji has been doing in the past few days.

…………

The first snow of winter came very suddenly, and when I woke up in the morning, it was white.

This year's year is not bad, the snow also came early, the temperature and thickness are suitable, so it can be seen that next year's harvest will be good.

Li Ji and Li Su sat opposite each other in the backyard room, there was a small red clay charcoal stove burning in front of them, a copper basin was resting on the stove, the water in the basin was boiling, a pot of wine was boiling in the center of the basin, and a few brightly colored side dishes on the low table next to them, with meat and vegetables, were particularly attractive.

Li Ji looked curiously at Li Su fiddling with the wine in the copper basin, this method of scalding wine is still very novel to the current Datang. It didn't take long for Li Ji to get impatient, three fingers stretched out, pinched the lid of the wine jug, and as soon as he touched the lid, he was scalded and retracted his hand like lightning, grinning in pain.

Li Su glanced up at him, if it weren't for the fact that he was his uncle, he would have been able to damage Li Ji and die on the spot just by the actions of this idiot.

"Uncle, the wine jug in the boiling water should be wrapped in a cloth towel, and it should be taken out slowly, and it cannot be touched directly with your hands, it is very ......hot," Li Su kindly explained.

Li Ji gritted his teeth: "............"

I really want to smoke this......

Snorting dissatisfiedly, Li Ji said: "It's a pity that you don't have to focus on benefiting all people, but you specialize in arrogant and lascivious things." ”

Li Su stared at the wine, carefully took the wine jug out of the boiling water in the copper basin with a cloth towel, untied the lid of the pot, and a smell of wine mixed with ginger slices and sugar water suddenly filled the room.

"Uncle, how to make life easy and comfortable is also a science, so that people's lives are more convenient, the food is richer, and the inner sense of happiness is enhanced, which is also for the benefit of the people."

Li Ji scolded with a smile: "Crooked reasoning has become the most reasonable in your mouth, your father is an honest and honest person, who did you learn from this flamboyant eloquence?" ”

Saying that, Li Ji sniffed vigorously and praised: "It's so fragrant!" This wine is a bit interesting, and it doesn't seem to smell like something from your brewery? ”

Li Su said with a smile: "The wine is still its own wine, but ginger and sucrose are added to the wine, and it is boiled with the wine, which can nourish the blood, nourish the qi and calm the nerves, and promote the circulation of qi and blood. ”

Li Ji was puzzled: "Old man Jiang knows, but this cane sugar ...... I remember that in the fourteenth year of Zhenguan, His Majesty sent an envoy to Tianzhu in order to obtain the method of boiling sucrose. ”

Li Su blinked: "No one in Datang knows how to boil sugar?" ”

"Nope."

"Oh, that's what I learned from fooling around, ah, it's amazing......"

The slightly contrived surprise made Li Ji glared at him angrily: "Give me the secret recipe for boiling sugar, and the old man will present it to Your Majesty tomorrow." ”

"This ...... No way. Li Su decisively refused, loving his elders and loving money even more.

"Uncle, whether you eat sugar or not, but it has little to do with the people, the people don't eat sugar and starve to death, you don't need me to benefit the people, I have to keep the secret recipe, I just opened a sugar workshop at home, and I have an extra input."

Li Ji scolded with a smile: "If you really want money to die, you have a lot of skills, if the old man had such a ability as you back then, how could you put money in your eyes?" ”

Li Su sighed: "The family knows that firewood and rice are expensive, if I make less money, maybe one day when I am arrogant and lascivious, there will be one less appetizer on the table, so I can only think of the world and the world, and I will cry alone." ”

Li Ji's eyes lit up: "'Thinking of heaven and earth, lonely and crying'? Good sentence! What did you just do? ”

Li Su blinked again: "This sentence...... No one has done it either? ”

"Nope."

"Ah, that's amazing......"

"Shut up, believe it or not, the old man will beat you like this?"

Li Su smiled, very happy, in the next few decades, if there is a guy named Chen Ziang lonely and lonely on a place called "Youzhou Terrace", leaning on the railing and looking into the distance, relying on the present and the past, when he expresses the depression and grief in his heart, as soon as he opens his mouth to read a sentence, countless tourists will appear next to him, accusing him of plagiarism and shamelessness, and then full of grief and indignation...... It's even more sad and angry.

I don't know why, Li Su suddenly felt very happy in his heart, and he was in a good mood.

Li Ji saw that Li Su was silly alone, and couldn't help but be even more angry, so he raised his hand and waited to draw it, and then thought that this nephew had not long been recognized, and they were still trying to adapt to the new role of "relative", so Li Ji had to put down his hand and only smoke it after everyone got acquainted in a few days.

"Yesterday to discuss the matter of Tubo and relatives, Your Majesty said, this matter has been handed over to you, you kid will call people, in order to play a good play, even our old guys in the eastern suburbs have been invited out by you, fortunately, the result is not bad, the Tubo mission finally softened, and then you made a Golden Palace competition to compete for the princess, Your Majesty said, the matter of the problem is also handed over to you, boy, I can tell you, if this matter cannot be satisfactorily resolved, your sin is not small......"

Li Ji's face sank as he spoke, and he said coldly: "Do you know how many courtiers are participating in you now?" Your Majesty's desk is piled up with a mountain of music for your treachery, saying that you are pleading Your Majesty for treachery, and that you are using national weapons in vain, behaving absurdly, losing the prestige of our country, what school martial arts, what Golden Palace competition, all of them are children playing, and it is too much that Your Majesty actually agrees with you to do this. ”

Li Su looked at him with a smile: "Uncle also thinks my nephew is ridiculous?" ”

Li Ji glared at him and said: "If you weren't my nephew, I would have slapped you to death earlier, but then Niu Jinda persuaded me, saying that your words and deeds seem to be ridiculous, but everything you do has been proven to be reasonable and meaningful afterwards. ”

Li Ji looked at him and said, "Lao Niu is your crown bearer, and he knows you well, and the old man feels quite reasonable after hearing it, so he waits patiently to see if you can do this thing beautifully." ”

Li Su said with a smile: "I will definitely live up to the high expectations of my uncle and the elders." ”

Li Ji's face was still gloomy, and he said slowly: "Li Su, don't take it lightly, this matter is already very serious, even if Your Majesty favors you, but after all, you can't stop the mouths of Youyou, if you mess up this matter, Your Majesty will be impeached by the courtiers, I am afraid that I will have to deal with you ruthlessly, don't count on the restoration of the official title, it is not uncommon to be exiled for thousands of miles or even expelled from Chang'an for the rest of your life, you have to be strict about this matter, if you are a little negligent, the courtiers will not let you go." ”

Li Su's expression also became serious, and he nodded solemnly and said: "Uncle don't worry, my nephew will not disappoint you, although I am young, I have experienced a lot of ups and downs, this time, I can still survive peacefully." ”

*****************************************************************************

Three days later, Taiji Palace, Qianqiu Palace.

Qianqiu Hall is located next to the main hall of the two instruments of the Taiji Palace, in the Suzhang Gate, which is the side hall of the two Yi Palace.

Early in the morning, the envoys of various countries entered the palace in an endless stream, they were all sent by edict, today there is a major event in the Tang State, this major event seems to be only related to the love between men and women, but behind this incident is a metaphor for many more far-reaching political significance, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is not an exaggeration to determine the foreign national policy of the Tang State to foreign countries.

Li Su came very early, and was taken out of Li Ji's mansion by the eunuch before dawn, and Li Shimin announced it.

Standing honestly in front of Li Shimin, Li Su's expression was still neither humble nor arrogant as usual.

Li Shimin's eyebrows were tightly locked, obviously preoccupied. When he heard that Tubo was soft, offered to make peace with his relatives, and was willing to compete fairly with the other five countries for Princess Wencheng, Li Shimin was indeed happy and relaxed for a while when he heard the news, but it didn't take long for Li Shimin to feel a little uneasy.

Tubo is a strong country, on the strength of the two countries, may not be comparable to the Tang Dynasty in terms of national strength, but the combat power of the army is very fierce, if it were not for Li Su invented the anti-heaven artifact such as the earth-shaking thunder, I am afraid that in the battle of Songzhou, the Tang Dynasty will be beaten to the ground by Tubo, such a strong country, was scared by Li Su a few words of casual clothing, Li Shimin really can't believe it, and has been worried about it.

Today has reached the last step, if according to the development of the script arranged by Li Su, the Tibetan mission should be very familiar and pretend that it is not able to be caught, and then admit defeat happily, the two countries will act as if nothing happened, after the mission leaves Chang'an, everyone continues to talk about peace with a clear conscience, talk about life ideals, with Songtsen Gampo's current age and the severity of estrus, maybe in a few years there will be a few years of perseverance to send a mission to Chang'an to continue to court, or perhaps, there will be some small friction on the border, or a small-scale war between the two countries, Then they sent their own envoys and continued to sing about each other, love each other, world peace, you are happy, I am happy, sorry, we used the wrong outdated military map, etc......

It's easy to say anything, Li Shimin never expected to maintain peace with Tubo for a long time, but at this juncture in front of him today, he is really a little hanging...... (To be continued.) )
