Chapter 215: The King Dies, and the Son of Heaven Guards the Country
With the iron cage of the lion, it was cut off by Li Chengqian's dragon soul soft sword. The lion inside will naturally be able to come out, which can frighten the Manchu civil and military.
Even the envoy of the Tibetan State retreated vigorously. And opened his mouth to organize Li Chengqian, don't joke with life.
But no matter what he said, it was too late, for the lion had already come out of its cage. But what everyone didn't expect was that the lion was very well-behaved.
Li Chengqian said directly to Wu Meiniang: "We still have to talk about business here, you let Xue'er take this lion back to the East Palace." ”
Wu Meiniang nodded, and then turned around and walked out of the Taiji Hall. But Xue'er was still standing on the lion's head, slapping the lion with her paws, and letting it follow Wu Meiniang away.
Watching the lion disappear into everyone's sight, this made the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military generals let go of their hanging hearts. At this time, the eyes looking at Li Chengqian were a little more strange.
At this time, the envoy of the Tubo State said to Li Shimin: "Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, since you have accepted the dowry, it means that you have promised peace between the two countries." I don't know when the Tang Emperor is going to send the princess to Tibet. ”
"People say that this palace will meet stitches, and it seems that you are also proficient in this way. But this palace wants to ask you, why do you say that your father accepted your dowry? Li Chengqian asked the Tibetan envoy with a smile
"The lion has been taken away by you, isn't this still a dowry?" The envoy of the Tubo State was stunned for a moment, and then opened his mouth to ask Li Chengqian.
"Listen, first of all, your lion was taken away by a cat. Second, your lion is not enough for the dowry. ”
"And the most important thing is that you Tubo Zampu are not worthy of my princess of the Tang Dynasty. If you marry the princess of the Tang Dynasty to your Tubo, what will the child be like? Li Chengqian said with a smile.
Li Chengqian's words reminded the Manchu Dynasty Wenwu of the lion just now, and he couldn't help laughing.
"It seems that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has decided to start a war with the Tibetans and the Western Turks. In this case, this envoy will inform my family of the decision of the Tang Emperor. The envoy of the Tibetan State said to Li Shimin.
"Have you seen this sword in Hongu's hand, I wonder how sharp you think it is?" Li Chengqian shook the dragon soul soft sword in his hand in front of the envoys of the Tubo State.
The sharpness of this dragon soul soft sword, the envoys of the Tubo Kingdom naturally knew it. However, he didn't think that Datang's weapons were so sharp.
So he opened his mouth and said: "What is the use of a sharp sword in the hand of the prince of the Tang Dynasty. The war knife in the hands of hundreds of thousands of sons and daughters in my Tubo country is not sharp? ”
Hearing the wild words of the envoy of the Tubo State, a smile appeared on Li Chengqian's face. Lifting his leg and kicking the envoy of the Tibetan State to the ground.
Then with the dragon soul soft sword in his hand, he directly picked up the back clothes of the envoys of the Tubo State. Let his entire back be exposed in front of Li Chengqian.
Then Li Chengqian opened his mouth and said to Li Shimin: "Father, I said that there is no rudeness. The father should also reply with a letter of state to the Tubo state of Zanpu. The sons dared to ask their father to dictate, and the sons wrote it. ”
"I have long heard that your thoughts are turbulent, so you will draw up this letter today." Li Shimin opened his mouth and said to Li Chengqian.
After Li Chengqian nodded, he waved the Dragon Soul Soft Sword in his hand on the back of the envoy of the Tubo State. What followed was the pig-like howl of the envoys of the Tibetan state.
After a short time, Li Chengqian put the dragon soul soft sword into his waist. Then he opened his mouth and said to Li Shimin: "Father, the son has already sent a letter of state back to the Tubo State for you. ”
"And the content of the national letter is written in our Tang Dynasty script, plus his Tubo script. Please also ask your father to take a look. ”
After Li Chengqian finished speaking, he winked at Cheng Yan and Wei Chigong. The two of them stepped forward and set up the envoys of the Tibetan State. And put it on the back to Li Shimin.
Seeing the blood marks carved by Li Chengqian with the dragon soul soft sword on his back, Li Shimin read aloud: "The national motto of the Tang Dynasty is not to be harmonious, not to pay compensation, not to cede land, not to pay tribute, the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies." ”
After Li Shimin finished reading it, he applauded loudly, and then said to Wei Zheng: "You return a letter of state to Songtsan Gampo of the Tubo State on behalf of me, saying that when the spring flowers bloom this year, the Tang Heavenly Army will be conscripted against him." ”
"Let them make arrangements as soon as possible, lest they say that my Tang Heavenly Dynasty bullied him into a small country."
After Wei Zheng sighed, he ordered someone to bring the four treasures of the study room and brush it to write the country. Then he handed it to Li Shimin and stamped it with the heirloom jade seal.
Li Shimin threw the letter of state in front of my envoy in Tibet and said: "You are unreasonable to me and despise my Tang Guowei. You should have been put to death, but the two countries did not kill each other, and today I will let you go back and send a message. ”
After Li Shimin finished speaking, he ordered someone to drive the envoys of the Tubo State out of the Taiji Palace. and confessed that he would be thrown out of Chang'an City directly.
At this time, the envoys of the Tubo State no longer had the slightest arrogance. Dejected, like a dead dog, he was dragged out by the prison guards.
At this time, Li Shimin was in a good mood, and said directly to Li Chengqian: "You have made great contributions to today's events, I don't know what reward you want?" ”
"Father, my son thinks that this Di Renjie will be an important minister of the country in the future. And he was born in Taiyuan Di's family, and he is also worthy of our royal princess. ”
"And today Di Renjie has made a great contribution, how about his father marrying Di Renjie in public?" Li Chengqian opened his mouth and said to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin nodded after hearing this, and then looked at Di Renjie. Seeing that Di Renjie was only four or five years old, he didn't know which princess to marry him for a while.
At this time, Di Renjie opened his mouth and said: "Your Majesty, Di Renjie once met Princess Li Mingda of Jinyang, and I feel that I can talk to Princess Jinyang very well. So Di Renjie was brave and hoped that the emperor could marry Princess Jinyang. ”
When Li Shimin heard that Di Renjie wanted to marry his Jinyang princess Li Mingda, he couldn't help but be stunned at first. After all, it was Li Shimin's princess.
Although Empress Changsun is not dead now, Li Shimin has not personally raised Princess Li Mingda of Jinyang. But for this two-year-old daughter, it is also a deep love.
But Li Chengqian opened his mouth and said to Li Shimin: "Father, Mingda's age is almost the same as Di Renjie, and his sons think it's a good marriage. ”
However, Erchen has always advocated free love. Therefore, whether Di Renjie can capture Mingda's heart depends on his own skills. ”
Li Shimin nodded after hearing this, and then said to Di Renjie: "As the prince said, it's up to you whether you can hold a beauty or not." If Princess Jinyang has affection for you, I am willing to marry her to you. ”
Di Renjie was full of smiles after hearing this, and thanked Li Shimin vigorously. But Cheng Yanjin on the side muttered in a low voice, his brother's apprentice marrying his aunt, this is really messy.
