Chapter 495: The Son of Heaven Guards the Country
"Minister, Qi Sixian, the chief secretary of the Yangzhou Assassin Mansion, greets Your Majesty."
"Flatten! Cai Cong asked you to come, but you came to ask for sin? ”
Li Shimin's leisurely voice came, and the chief bookkeeper in his thirties stood up straight and replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, Lord Assassin Shi said that the old lady was wrong because he should not use lynching to deal with Lu Yuanxing's family, as for Lu Yuanxing's death. ”
"Bold, the death of a dignified court official at the hands of a ranger is also called innocent? Your Majesty, please punish Cai Cong for his contempt of the royal law. ”
Before Li Shimin could speak, Dai Guan, who regarded the law as a heavenly rule, couldn't stand it anymore, and jumped out directly with an angry roar.
"Did Qi Sixian hear Lord Dai's words? If you can't tell me why you came, I won't be able to protect your family's assassin Shi! ”
Li Shimin said leisurely, but he was also very uncomfortable in his heart, even if he was a member of the family, he was also his courtier, and he should be in charge of life and death, who else would dare to say such a thing?
"Your Majesty, please read the recital of Lord Assassin Shi, I don't know if it's okay?"
"Accurate!"
Li Shimin spit out a word lightly, and Yan Dong immediately ran down to inspect the wax seal of the fold, and only returned it to Qi Sixian after confirming that there was no problem.
Minister Cai Cong paused, hearing that Tubo asked for peace, and the minister was full of pride when he heard it, thinking that Tubo sent a woman to kiss. Why don't you know that the strength of my Datang country has been so weak, and I actually want to pin the safety of the country in the hands of a woman? The minister's heart is extremely uncomfortable, the Weishui Alliance is only eight years, and the shame of the Manchu Dynasty is forgetful? ”
Qi Sixian glanced at everyone as he read it, and saw that their faces were ugly, so he continued to read: "The minister's heart is full of grief, the early Tang Dynasty was weak and had to accept humiliation, and he was already looking up to the sky and screaming. Now that the Tang Dynasty is strong and strong, why should the country be rich and the people strong?
The alliance of Weishui can no longer be repeated, so the minister wants to say that the Tang Dynasty should have a national motto, no harmony, no compensation, no land, no tribute, the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies. ”
Qi Sixian knelt on the ground and roared loudly, his face flushed with excitement, Hou Ye's words were too hot, if it weren't for this hall, he would even want to roar loudly.
The ministers were also excited, no empire has been able to do this since ancient times, and the Tang Dynasty should be able to do it.
"Good! Keep talking! ”
Li Shimin slapped the dragon chair and said loudly, the fog that shrouded his heart seemed to be opened by a big hand.
"The minister obeyed the order, and the recital of Lord Assassin Shi said that since Tubo wants to get married, he should let Songtsan Gampo send the noble daughter of Tubo to make peace, and the noble daughter of the Tang Dynasty will not marry a savage, but the Tang Dynasty will be generous to others and allow him to climb high in Tibet."
"If Songtsen Gampo wants to make peace, he wants the Tang Dynasty to marry a noble girl, in order to feel at ease, if he sends a Tibetan noblewoman, they will not be at ease at all."
Someone stood up and said, Qi Sixian smiled coldly and continued to look at the song and said: "I heard that someone wants to let her sister marry Tubo, I really deserve to die, how can the safety of the world be tied to the hands of women?" Tubo is just a soil dog in the eyes of the ministers, how can it be placed in the eyes of the real dragon of the Tang Dynasty? If the Tibetans have the heart of disobedience, the ministers will invite 100,000 elite soldiers to destroy the Tubo tribe and exterminate the species. ”
Hearing this, Li Shimin covered his head and couldn't speak for a long time, this kid is really unscrupulous for his sister, and even dares to say this kind of thing that violates heavenly principles. As for the other ministers, they were all shocked, this kid was too ruthless, he would destroy the country when he opened his mouth, and Lu Yuanxing's death was not wronged at all.
"Your Majesty, what the Tang Dynasty needs now is to recuperate, and the Marquis of Chang'an has made great contributions to opening up business roads and promoting agricultural affairs. But now that the war in Fusang is raging, how can he send troops to Tibet again? The reckless use of military force is not in line with the will of the people, and the former Sui tyranny is not far away! ”
A minister said tremblingly, his face full of pain, seeing that Li Shimin didn't speak, he kept babbling.
Everyone looked at him impatiently, Cai Cong was not qualified to turn the court into his Yiyantang, it was not that he said he would fight. Everyone's understanding is that Cai Cong is swearing his attitude, that is, he does not support Heqin.
"Okay, needless to say, at the moment, Datang's national policy is to recuperate, as long as Tubo doesn't make trouble, Datang will not easily get up and retreat!"
Li Shimin waved his hand impatiently, this kind of person with no eyesight and no ability should retire.
It's just that Li Shimin is a little painful, Cai Cong's twenty-two character mantra pokes his heart every word, this is the prosperous Tang Dynasty he wants!
But to have such a prosperous Tang Dynasty, the price to pay is too big for him to accept, too domineering actions require a lot of human lives, and even will be written in the history books and named a tyrant.
"Your Majesty, I think the twenty-two-character precept that the Marquis of Chang'an said is very reasonable, if my Datang can do this, what other forces in the world dare to look sideways at Datang?"
Li Daozong said excitedly, let's not say that Cai Cong's national policy has passed, and his daughter doesn't have to worry about being sent to get married, just say that these twenty-two words are domineering, which is exciting!
"What do you think?"
Li Shimin asked, no one spoke, although it is domineering, but how much blood and wealth do you need to pay to achieve this national policy? The Han Dynasty became strong by the policy of peace and proximity, and with years of accumulation, it was difficult to fight the whole world and surrender, and the blood paid in the middle was also immeasurable!
None of them would open their mouths to support this national policy, which was considered dead, a large number of dead people. But no one is willing to oppose it, otherwise he will definitely leave a soft bone in the future, and the bad reputation of being greedy for life and afraid of death will be passed on to future generations.
"What's going on today? One by one, they all realized that silence is golden? ”
Li Shimin asked loudly, this matter does not need to be settled now, but he wants to see the attitude of the ministers, it is not a good thing to cherish the feathers too much and do things tirelessly.
"The minister thinks that this matter needs to be considered in the long run, even if Cai Cong's strategy can establish the soul of my Tang Dynasty, but there are too many involved, so I have to be careful!"
"Your Majesty, what Lord Fang said is reasonable! Although Chang'an Hou said this for the soul of the Tang Dynasty, everything that needs to be paid in the middle needs to be considered, so let's say that if Tubo turns his face now, is it worth it? Once you turn your face, you will inevitably fight each other, and your lives will be ruined! ”
"Yes! What Master Pan said is reasonable! The minister thinks that he must not be rash, and he himself has the ancients, that is to put the safety of the world in the hands of women, but the hope of the people in the world! ”
"It's extreme, it's extreme, not to mention that Tubo was beaten by my Tang Dynasty to seek peace, the Tang Dynasty's majesty is fully displayed, and harmony is just for the stability of the world, which is extremely reasonable."
"That's right, Tubo admires the Tang Dynasty, and his relatives are just normal relations, don't you want a good family affair, and you have to be happy if you have swords and soldiers and corpses all over the field?"
"Isn't it red when the big man says this? If you want to kiss, let your daughter go! Lao Tzu felt that what Cai Cong said was very good, and if he was not convinced, he would beat him until he was killed. ”
"Acting with righteousness, fighting with righteousness, one will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, have you ever thought about how many people will die in one sentence?"
"What's so strange about fighting a war that kills people? The men of the Tang Dynasty would rather die on the battlefield, so that at least they have backbone. If it is known that we need to rely on a woman to sell her lust in exchange for a peaceful life, then it will not give people shame? ”
