Chapter 381: Blatantly Asking for Benefits, Beauty Scheming

On the top of the palace hall, Silla princess Jindeman saw the legendary Tang Emperor for the first time, this rich man, although she only looked up from afar, she could still feel a kind of majesty of a monarch, in comparison, her father seemed to be just a prince or minister.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Princess Silla has come to ask Datang for help, how should this matter be handled?" Li Er asked the courtiers below in front of Jindeman.

Li Jing stood up and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the Tang Dynasty has been fighting for many years, and it has just been cultivated for a year, so it is not appropriate to use swords and soldiers anymore." Besides, Silla and I have no friendship with Datang, and we are not obligated to rescue them. ”

It's over, seeing Li Jing say this, it was like a basin of cold water poured on Jindeman's head, looking at the position of this old minister dressed as a military general, he must be an extremely influential person, he came out to oppose it, and it may be difficult to ask for help.

"Your Majesty, Silla is located on the peninsula, although it has nothing to do with us, but if Goguryeo is allowed to dominate the peninsula, then their strength will definitely increase, and they will be the great enemy of our Tang Dynasty in the future!

Therefore, the minister thought that when the troops were sent to the rescue, after all, our two countries had a common enemy, Goguryeo. The eldest grandson Wuji said when he came out of class.

"Afraid of what? Isn't it just little Goguryeo? Why am I afraid?

Your Majesty, the minister thinks that he should not save him, and there is no benefit to me in rescuing Silla, so how can I let the soldiers fight for nothing? Hou Junji came out and shouted.

"We, Silla, are willing to form an alliance with the Tang Dynasty and jointly deal with Goguryeo." Kindman shouted.

Hou Junji doesn't buy it, don't look at your beauty, but how to deal with the situation on the peninsula was discussed in advance, and you definitely didn't discuss it in the court.

"No, Datang doesn't need weak allies, a place that can't even keep its own country, what can it do to form an alliance?" Hou Junji interrupted.

"I, Silla will provide money and grain to supply the Tang Dynasty and send troops, and we are willing to pay 10,000 gold as a reward,"

Gritting her silver teeth, she put forward the idea of spending money to ask for troops, Silla is small, and Wanjin is almost about to run out of the treasury, but compared to destroying the country, it would be good to be able to spend money to buy a life, and at this time she also understood that the Tang Dynasty ministers were unwilling to send troops to save people in vain.

Li Er groaned: "In this way, it's not that you can't think about it. ”

Li Jing shouted: "Your Majesty, how much gold is there?" Datang is rich, where is his gold and silver missing? The lives of our soldiers are of the highest importance! ”

"This ......" Li Er hesitated.

"Hmph, I thought that Datang was a big country in the state, with the style of a king, but I didn't expect that it was also such greed for life and fear of death, and the military of a country would only care about it like a street vendor?

Silla is a small country in poverty, and although it has little money, it is full of sincerity.

Perhaps there is no obvious benefit to the Tang Dynasty in rescuing Silla, but if Silla is destroyed and Goguryeo is strong, and the Tang Dynasty starts a war with it, there must be more dead and wounded soldiers. Kindman came out and mocked loudly.

Hou Junji said disdainfully: "The people who are about to die are still laughing at us here? If you want us to send troops, money can't work, our Datang is not short of money, unless you Silla bows down to my Datang and pays tribute every year, otherwise you are destroyed by Goguryeo, what do we have to do?

Even if Goguryeo dominates the peninsula, do you dare to touch our Datang? ”

All the generals cheered for Hou Junji, and the old Hou deserved to be an executioner of an alien race, which sounded really uplifting.

Li Er saw that the matter was almost over, and he also wanted to leave time for the other party to think, so he said: "Okay, your envoy is tired of traveling and driving, let's discuss it here today, and the matter of sending troops can be discussed another day." ”

Jindeman returned to the Yingbin Garden a little depressed, this is the place where the envoys of various countries live, looking at this situation, Datang is not easy to get along with, and the legendary state of etiquette is simply a world of difference, all want to benefit from this incident, but Silla is too poor to get what Datang wants.

As for paying tribute every year, it is no different from Silla being co-opted.

The distraught Kindman pondered and meditated, as if he had no good ideas, and at this time, the deputy envoy of Silla came, and he had something to report.

"Princess, you have made the inquiry come to fruition."

"What's the matter?"

"It's the person whose white-clothed scholar is called Zhongnan Baifan."

"Oh? Tell me, whose family is it? The absent-minded Kinderman, who seemed to have lost his sagit and sobriety at this time, said casually.

The deputy envoy gradually became interested and began to gush, "It turns out that this person is not a four-character name, Zhongnan is where he is located is Zhongnan Mountain, and his name is Bai Fan."

In the Tang Dynasty, it can be said that he is a well-known big man, knighted as the Marquis of Lantian, the son-in-law of Li Jiancheng, the king of Jin, and the nephew of Li Jing, the generalissimo of the dynasty. ”

"Li Jing?"

Hearing this name, Jindeman couldn't help but think of the first veteran in the court to come out to oppose him! If that's the case, I'm afraid it's hard to move him to help, after all, the old man is against the rescue, and Bai Fan is his junior.

"Yes, but Bai Fan is famous not because of this, but because he is very capable.

It is rumored that he debuted at the age of fourteen, and is the same disciple of Yuan Tiangang, the living immortal of the Tang Dynasty Taoism, who is proficient in the learning of the hundred schools of thought, and single-handedly created the Tang Beggars Gang, and collected the beggars all over the world. ”

"What? So powerful? Kindman was stunned.

In addition, he also founded Zhongnan Academy, which is located at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain in Lantian County in the south, and the first batch of students is only one hundred and twenty, of which forty have already made their mark in Datang.

It is said that the last time the Tang Dynasty conquered five big cities in the west of Goguryeo within a month, it was these forty disciples of Zhongnan Academy who led 10,000 vanguard troops to do it, so it was rumored that Bai Fan was the first division of the Tang Dynasty. ”

"Vanguard? There were indeed rumors from Goguryeo before about this matter, but I didn't expect there to be such a thing, so this Bai Fan is really an amazing figure, the master of the vanguard army, then his influence is probably not small.

Very good, check where he lives, what his preferences are, I want to visit one or two, after all, we have a relationship, and now the situation is not optimistic, it can be said that it is difficult, and multiple friends are one more way. Kindman's mind became more and more active, and he commanded.

The deputy envoy also nodded approvingly, and said with a smile: "It must be easy for the princess to go out, it is said that this Bai Fan is a well-known romantic genius in the Tang Dynasty, and is respected by the people as the saint of the Tang Dynasty. ”

"Presumptuous! We are here to ask for help, representing the face of Silla, how can we do such shameless seduction? Kindman sternly dismissed the deputy envoy.

But when she was alone, she was also thinking in her heart, Silla had almost nothing, maybe she could still have some value as a princess!

Thinking that his old father was still struggling to support him, Jindeman lamented in his heart that if he could exchange himself for the peace of the country, then this business was not impossible.

Jindeman, who figured out the situation, let go of his reserve, and began to think about how to act in the Tang Dynasty next, if he wanted to keep the autonomy of Silla's incompetent ministers, I am afraid that only himself, the princess, would use some special means.

Remember what Bai Fan said? Heavy makeup is outdated, what style is emerging now? It still needs to be studied.
