Chapter 455: Jin Shengman's Choice

()

In Silla, the Pak, Seok, and Kim royal families had the highest status, called "sacred bones", and belonged to the first echelon of heirs to the throne.

As one of its members, Kim Seung-man has known many things that ordinary people don't know since she was a child, and what she remembers most is the strength of Goguryeo and the strength of Izumi Gaisu.

As a small country on the peninsula, Silla borders both Goguryeo and Baekje, but as the weakest country, Silla has always been bullied by the other two countries.

Kim Seung-man had seen more than once the scene of Goguryeo and Baekje envoys showing off their might in Silla, while her cousin Jindeman could only compromise and swallow her anger for the sake of Silla.

However, blindly retreating did not bring peace, but only made the other side worse, and when Silla could no longer afford the oppression of Goguryeo and Baekje, the two countries finally raised their armies.

As a country that had been oppressed for a long time, Silla's national power could not have been weaker, and as soon as the war began, dozens of cities were captured by Goguryeo and Baekje.

Jindeman really had no choice but to ask the Tang Dynasty for help, but the messenger had just left Silla when he was intercepted and killed by the Goguryeo people.

finally sent the messenger to Chang'an, but did not wait for reinforcements from the Tang Dynasty, but a book of reconciliation.

Obviously, Izumi Gaisu would not pay attention to such books, so he did not stop attacking Silla, and Kindman managed to barely keep the last few castles of Silla after several maneuvers.

At that time, Kim Seung-man made a decision.

"I, Jin Shengman, must find a strong backer in the future, a backer who can protect myself and my family."

And at this time, Gao Ming appeared.

After Gomyung entered Goguryeo with a large army, he successively captured Goguryeo's Xiongseongseong, and even Xiongseong such as Liaodong Fortress and Jian'an Fortress were taken, forcing Goguryeo to withdraw a large number of troops from Silla.

After getting the news of Goguryeo's withdrawal, Jindeman hugged Kim Seungman and cried, crying while telling her that Silla was saved!

At the same time, Jindeman also told Kim Seungman that the friendly relationship between Silla and Datang must be maintained, because only in this way can it be guaranteed that Silla will not be bullied by Goguryeo and Baekje in the future.

Looking at the cousin who was crying with joy in front of him, a new concept appeared in Jin Shengman's consciousness - Datang is very strong, stronger than Goguryeo!

Ten days later, a new news reached Silla - Goguryeo's Pyongyang was occupied by the Tang army, and even Quan Gaisu was sent to Chang'an.

At this time, everyone knew that Goguryeo was finished, and at the same time, they also had an intuitive understanding of the strength of the Tang Dynasty.

To put it simply, it is so strong that they can only look up.

After receiving this news, Kindman, the queen of Silla, immediately gave the order for a counterattack, and Baekje also turned against Goguryeo and helped Silla Gong fight Goguryeo.

In less than a few days, Silla took back all the cities that Goguryeo had robbed, which is in line with the old saying, called the wall falling down and everyone pushing it.

Jindeman has not forgotten who brought her all this, so when she knew that Gao Ming was in Pyongyang, she immediately went to Pyongyang with gifts, intending to express her gratitude and Silla's sincerity to Datang.

However, it is a pity that Kindman overestimated her health, and she had only left the Silla royal city for a few days when she fell ill on the way, and then she swallowed her breath on the way.

It was her cousin Kim Seung-man who took over Kindman's place, and after becoming the new Queen of Silla, she received another news that surprised him.

The Tang army was attacking Baekje, and it had already reached the capital of Baekje, Jubaseong, and even the leader of Baekje, King Yiji, who had just taken office, was captured by the Tang army.

At this time, Kim Seung-man sensed that something was wrong, and she was a little worried that Datang would beat the rabbit with grass and destroy Silla by the way, after all, compared with Goguryeo and Baekje, Silla's strength was really similar to that of a rabbit.

Kim Seung-man was a smart woman, so after ascending the throne, she did not choose to celebrate with the whole country, but immediately took her retinue and gifts and went to Pyongyang to see Gao Ming.

Jin Shengman was still a little apprehensive when she came, because in her heart, Datang is the suzerainty of Silla, the powerful kingdom of heaven and court, and Gao Ming, the crown prince, is the future emperor of Datang!

In terms of identity, how noble is the status of a smart person? If it weren't for the fact that she had become the queen of Silla, she would have been worried about whether she would be able to meet Gao Ming.

In fact, before entering Goguryeo's palace, she was worried that Gomyung would not see her, because if Gomyung was bent on destroying Silla, he would definitely not see her.

But thankfully, she saw Gao Ming, and to her surprise, Gao Ming was younger than she thought.

"As long as I can gain the favor of a young man like this, not only will I be able to keep Silla, but my position in Silla will also be quickly stabilized."

After thinking about this, Jin Shengman put his posture to the lowest, and even Gao Ming asked to see her "hang her arms over her knees" such an rude request, she couldn't help but shyly agree.

Even, she still has a hint of joy.

In fact, it is not surprising that Jin Shengman has such an idea, because in this era, Datang is a superpower that everyone admires, and men from neighboring countries are proud to marry Datang women, and women are proud to marry Datang men.

And Gao Ming himself is also very curious about the famous Queen Jindeok in the history of Silla, and similarly, Kim Seungman also admires Gao Ming, the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty.

Jin Shengman is already outstanding, and Gao Ming is a man with strong blood, the two are naturally **, and they hit it off.

In Gao Ming's heart, if he has a skin-to-skin relative, he is his own person, although Jin Shengman is a "Silla stick", but Gao Ming feels that she still has the need to save, so he gave her two choices.

It's called a choice, but it's actually an assessment.

If Kim Seung-man chooses to continue to be the queen of Silla, then Gao Ming will definitely draw a line with her in the future, and will no longer have too many entanglements with her, and at most keep Silla safe for decades, which can be regarded as giving her an explanation.

Thankfully, Kim Seung-man did not disappoint Gao Ming, and she did not hesitate to choose to let Silla integrate into Datang and become a part of Datang.

This vision and decisiveness made Gao Ming can't help but high-five and appreciate.

"Good! is worthy of the woman I see, from today onwards, you are the first female governor of the Tang Dynasty, and I will leave 200,000 troops to help you stabilize the situation. ”

Speaking of this, Gao Ming immediately took off the jade pendant from his waist and put it in hers.

"In the future, you can take this jade pendant to the Furong Garden in Chang'an to find me, if you ...... I said that if you have my child, then I will also recognize him, and then this Liaodong Peninsula will also become his fief, and I will also have a place for you in my harem. ”

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Jin Shengman immediately smiled and bowed to Gao Ming.

"Your Highness, you understand what you mean, Shengman understands, don't worry, Shengman will help you govern the Liaodong Peninsula, Shengman is yours, everything here is yours!"
