Chapter 237: Questioning
Qin Tian and the Ninth Princess stopped by.
When I went back, I happened to meet Cheng Biting Jin, who came to find Qin Tian.
This made the three of them very embarrassed, and naturally remembered what happened on the kang that day.
The ninth princess blushed slightly, raised her whip and whipped it hard on the horse's buttocks, and then quickly ran to the front.
Qin Tian smiled bitterly, but Cheng Yanjin ripped him off.
"You kid is getting bolder and bigger, and you dare to take Her Royal Highness the princess and not return overnight? Have you forgotten what you said to you last time? ”
Cheng Biting Jin is a little bitter, then Luo Yi is not easy to provoke, Emperor Yang of Sui couldn't afford to provoke him at the beginning, so he could only appease, and now Datang can only appease him.
Qin Tian dared to soak his daughter-in-law, so if he became angry, he was afraid that this Datang would be unstable again.
Qin Tian looked aggrieved.
"Lu Guogong, I really have nothing to do with Her Royal Highness the Princess, I went hunting yesterday, Her Royal Highness the Princess was captured by the assassins of Tuyuhun, and it was not easy for us to pick up a life."
"Tuyuhun assassin?" Cheng Yanjin was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that the Ninth Princess would be kidnapped by Tuyuhun's assassins.
"Really?"
"Of course it's true, there are still the corpses of those assassins in that ruined temple."
Cheng Yanjin's expression moved slightly, as if he realized something, so he didn't say anything to Qin Tian anymore, and rode away directly.
Qin Tian looked at Cheng Biting Jin's appearance, and his heart became more and more suspicious.
But now he can't care so much, let's go home first.
However, as soon as she arrived at the door, she saw Tang Rong and Lu Huaniang standing left and right, and Tang Rong's expression was a little cold and pale.
Qin Tian sighed lightly in his heart, why did everyone misunderstand him and the Ninth Princess?
I have to explain it again.
"Two ladies, in fact, this is the way it is......"
The next morning, Li Yuan told Li Yuan about the ninth princess being kidnapped by the Tuyuhun assassins.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Tuyuhun dared to kidnap my Tang princess, according to your words, what should I do in Datang?"
As soon as Li Yuan asked, an official stood up: "Holy Lord, Tuyuhun dared to send someone to kidnap my Tang Princess, in the opinion of the minister, they must not be spared." ”
"That's right, we should send troops to teach Tuyuhun a lesson, so that they can have a long memory."
"The minister also thinks that troops should be sent ......"
The officials of the Tang Dynasty are very bloody, and the princess was bullied, so she can't just forget it.
Therefore, many people advocate sending troops.
Li Shimin stood in the crowd, but he didn't say a word, just watched these officials speak.
And just when these officials were about to speak, the household officials stood up and said: "Saint, now that my Datang is short of grain and grass, it is not suitable to send troops, and this matter should be considered in the long run." ”
If troops are dispatched, the pressure on the household department will be very great, and the household department does not really want to send troops to fight.
After the household department told this situation, the voice of the court advocating sending troops was weaker, Li Yuan frowned slightly, and said: "But if you don't send troops, my Datang face will be there, and if I don't teach them a lesson this time, then other countries will see that my Datang is a bully, and I'm afraid that they will come to harass me from time to time, right?" ”
Li Yuan is the emperor who came out of the war in the end, and he has blood.
After he said this, Pei Lin walked out of the crowd and said: "Shengshang, this matter must also be resolved, the envoys sent Tuyuhun and asked them why they kidnapped my Datang princess, as long as they admit their mistakes, my Datang's face will be saved, and when my Datang accumulates strength, I will defeat Tuyuhun in one fell swoop, so that they will never dare to be enemies of my Datang from now on." ”
Even if it is a temporary concession, it is just to have the opportunity and strength to destroy you in the future, Datang has always been like this, they sometimes don't care about temporary gains and losses, as long as they can succeed again in the end.
Pei Lian's words were quickly recognized by the ministers, and Li Yuan also felt that this move was feasible, so he found an official to act as an envoy to question Tuyuhun.
-----------------------
After the end of the early dynasty, Li Shimin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as the envoys of the Tang Dynasty questioned Tuyuhun, they would anger Tuyuhun, and Tuyuhun was looking for an opportunity to attack Gyeongju at this time, which just gave them an excuse.
As long as Tuyuhun starts a war with the Tang Dynasty, then he Li Shimin will have a place to use.
If you want to fight, the entire Tang Dynasty, except for him Li Shimin, who has this ability?
And as long as there is a war, Wei Chigong, Qin Shubao and others will be able to gather together again, and at that time, he will be one step closer to implementing his plan.
All he needed to do now was wait for the war between the two countries to begin.
Although it is a bit cruel to do this yourself, it is inevitable for people who do great things.
Li Shimin left the palace and returned home, but on the side of the East Palace, Li Jiancheng didn't take it seriously at all.
Whether it's a war or not, as long as he is still the prince, he can do it now.
He just wants to sit more firmly on his position as the crown prince.
It's just that not long after Li Jiancheng returned to the East Palace, Song Gongqing hurriedly ran over.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, something is wrong."
Li Jiancheng was puzzled and asked, "Why is it not good?" ”
"I'm going to question Tuyuhun in the Tang Dynasty, I'm afraid that a war is about to start."
Li Jiancheng pursed his lips: "Just get up, I'm still afraid that Tugu will not succeed?" ”
Song Gongqing said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is confused, if there is really a war, you can resist the people of Tuyuhun, how much do I have in the Tang Dynasty?" ”
"What do you mean by that?"
"His Royal Highness the Prince, as long as the war starts, the probability of the Holy Lord using His Royal Highness the King of Qin, as well as His Royal Highness the King of Qin, will be very high, at that time, His Royal Highness the King of Qin will once again control the military power, can you, the crown prince, still sit still?"
Song Gongqing's words were like thunder, and Li Jiancheng suddenly stood up from the firekang: "This ...... How is this good, the prince will enter the palace and persuade his father to withdraw his order. ”
"It's late, the envoy has already set off, and the King of Qin will definitely protect him secretly and let him reach Tuyuhun safely, and besides, such a thing as kidnapping the princess will not be over."
"This ...... This...... How can this be good, Mr. Song, what should this prince do? "Li Jiancheng is a little anxious, he must not let Li Shimin take power.
Song Gongqing pondered for a moment and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, if there is really a war, the Holy Lord will not let you lead the troops, but you can not lead the troops, but the person who leads the troops must not be the people of King Qin, otherwise it will be very disadvantageous to us." ”
"It can't be Li Shimin's person?"
"That's right, it can not be our people, but it must not be Li Shimin's people, as long as it is not Li Shimin's people, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still has hope."
Li Jiancheng nodded, he already understood what Song Gongqing meant.
"Don't worry, even if this prince can't lead the troops, he will never let Li Shimin or his people lead the troops." For this, Li Jiancheng is still very confident.
It's just that Song Gongqing sighed lightly.
