Chapter 1266: Qin Tian Returns to Beijing
The nostalgia is even more timid.
Qin Tian is now close to Chang'an, and his heart is even more worried.
Although he has made two great achievements in succession, the matter of making peace with Tubo is a bit out of line.
When he arrived in Chang'an City, I didn't know what Li Shimin would do with him.
He knows very well that even if Li Shimin wants to forgive him, the rules can't be abolished, otherwise others will learn from him in the future, and it will be difficult to control.
Therefore, for the sake of the so-called rules, Li Shimin must also punish him.
And it was precisely because of this punishment that Qin Tian was a little uneasy.
When I returned to Chang'an City, it was already late autumn.
At this time, in addition to the liveliness in Chang'an City, autumn colors can also be seen.
Falling leaves, autumn winds.
When Qin Tian came back with the team, there were many people standing on the streets.
They didn't know what Qin Tian had done, they only knew that Qin Tian had defeated Xue Yantuo and Tubo one after another and made great contributions.
They all came to see the fun.
Among the army, there was a cart of victories, and when the people saw it, they were immediately excited.
"Little Master Qin is amazing, after defeating Tubo, let Tubo compensate so much."
"Who says it's not, these gold, silver and jewelry are higher than our Datang's annual taxes, right?"
"That's not it, but we should teach Tubo a lesson like this, who made them dare to use troops against my Tang Dynasty."
"Extremely, extremely, it should be like this, Little Grandpa Qin is really powerful."
“…………”
The people didn't know the seriousness of the matter yet, and they kept talking excitedly, and occasionally after some words reached Qin Tian's ears, Qin Tian only chuckled.
Qin Tian continued to walk with the team, came to Vermilion Bird Street, and came to the gate of the palace.
But this time, no one greeted him in front of the palace.
He smiled bitterly and glanced at Niu Jinda, and then the two of them turned over and dismounted, and went directly into the palace.
In the palace hall, the ministers are waiting for them.
Everyone looked at Qin Tian with strange eyes, some people were worried, and some people gloated.
Qin Tian walked step by step, the hall changed from quiet to noisy, and his footsteps gradually disappeared.
Coming to the front, Qin Tian knelt on the ground and handed over a copy of the recital.
"Minister Qin Tian, fortunately not dishonored, he returned victorious."
A palace man took the fold and handed it to Li Shimin, Li Shimin glared at Qin Tian, thinking to himself that he was fortunate not to be dishonored, and to let go of Songtsan Gampo in vain, was it still fortunate not to disgrace his life?
However, he was very curious about what was written on Qin Tian's fold, so he opened it and took a look.
After opening it like this and taking a look, Li Shimin's heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
That's a lot of money.
After taking a look, even a genius like him felt a lot, this is all wealth.
With such a lot of money, he Li Shimin was moved, and at this time, he finally understood what was going on, it turned out that this was all the money that Tubo paid to them in order to negotiate peace.
This is a lot of money, but I'm afraid that it will cost Tubo almost all of a sudden, right?
Li Shimin slowly calmed down, and after closing the recital, his eyes looked at Qin Tian a little differently.
Somewhat softened.
I have to say that money is a good thing, even a genius like Li Shimin cannot be an exception, he knows very well that with such a sum of money, he can do a lot of things, and he doesn't have to blink.
"Qin Tian, you are indeed fortunate to have defeated Xue Yantuo and Tubo, but do you know what mistakes you have made?"
Everyone turned their eyes to Qin Tian, and Qin Tian responded: "Back to the saint, the minister knows that the minister should not negotiate peace with Tubo without explaining to the saint. ”
"Is that all?"
As soon as Qin Tian finished speaking, Gao Shilian stood up, and then snorted: "You have brought soldiers and horses, and you have obviously surrounded Songtsan Gampo, why do you want to negotiate peace with him, after killing him, it will be more beneficial to our Tang Dynasty to let Tubo be in chaos, right?" ”
After Gao Shilian said such a sentence, other people who opposed Qin Tian in the court also stood up one after another.
"Yes, have you received any benefits from Tibet?"
"Definitely yes, Tubo is willing to give so much money, so it shouldn't be a problem to buy you Qin Tian, right?"
“…………”
The crusade was endless.
Qin Tian didn't expect that there would be so many people who opposed him, of course, among so many people, some of them had grievances with him, and some of them might just be just angry youth, and he felt that it was a pity that he didn't kill Songtsen Gampo.
At this time, Li Shimin also looked at Qin Tian, and he also wanted to know the reason.
Qin Tian smiled bitterly and said: "Shengshang, the situation at that time, the minister could not kill Songtsen Gampo, and now my Datang does not have the ability to destroy Tubo, rather than not getting along with Tubo old and dead, it is better to live in peace with them for the time being, and when my Datang has accumulated strength, I will destroy Tubo in one fell swoop, and Songtsan Gampo is the key to our peace with Tubo............"
Qin Tian explained the situation again, and what he said was still very reasonable, and after Li Shimin listened to it, he finally understood what was going on.
If it were him, he would also choose to negotiate peace with Tubo instead of taking the risk of killing Songtsen Gampo, after all, if Tubo and their Tang Dynasty did not fight to the death, they Datang were afraid that they would not have much time to develop.
There are not many enemies in Tibet, but there are quite a few of them in the Tang Dynasty.
Therefore, it is best not to fight against an enemy constantly until you have the strength to destroy it in one fell swoop.
Li Shimin agreed with Qin Tian's explanation, but Qin Tian's decision not to tell the court was unforgivable.
When Gao Shilian and the others saw this situation, they immediately focused the problem on this, and they didn't give Li Shimin face, but they wanted to see what Li Shimin did.
Li Shimin's eyes were staring, he knew that everyone was waiting for him to punish Qin Tian, and if he didn't punish him, he would break the rules.
The reason why a court can proceed in an orderly manner is because there are rules and regulations, if not, wouldn't it be chaotic?
Rules cannot be abolished.
After a long time, Li Shimin finally spoke: "Qin Tianyi and this matter are indeed a bit arbitrary, but for his meritorious sake, the merits will be offset, but I want to remove him from his position in Shangshu Province and demote him to Jinling City as a assassin." ”
After this punishment came out, many people were not very happy, such as Cheng Yanjin and others, they had already made merits, why did they still transfer Qin Tian out of the capital?
Qin Tian left the capital, they would be much more boring.
But at the same time, there are some people who finally get what they want, such as Gao Shilian.
You must know that the official position of the assassin is not low, but in the end, it is an expatriate official, compared with Qin Tian's official position in Shangshu Province, he has already been degraded very much.
After Qin Tian heard this, he was stunned for a moment.
"How is Jinling City?"
