348 The wishful thinking of the Tibetan people
Li Er, who was in a trance, calmed down, and the old eunuch on the other side gave a 'okay' look, then looked at the guy standing frowning at the foot of the imperial stairs and asked, "Tubo envoy, I don't know what is going on here?" ”
Li Chengqian also looked at the expression of the guy in Tubo who had eaten, snorted several times, and almost laughed. However, Li Chengqian also knew that the old man was indeed distracted just now, and he didn't deliberately snub this guy from Tubo.
"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the foreign minister is here to ask for relatives on behalf of my Tubo lord." The Tibetan envoy Shang Nang secretly gritted his teeth. In Tibet, he is the prime minister, under one person, above ten thousand, but in the Tang Dynasty, he is nothing, even if he is the lord of Tibet, it seems to be nothing in the eyes of the Tang people.
And pro! The eternal pain of the Chinese nation! Although there are few in heaven and no one on earth in history who touts the meaning of "harmony", it cannot change the fact that women are relied on in exchange for peace.
In fact, what can you do after getting married? In addition to sending the daughter of the Han family into the fire pit, how could it have any other significance? As for improving national cohesion? That's, national cohesion can be improved by a woman? What about bragging?
If there are really so many benefits of harmony, why don't you watch those guys who advocate harmony marry their daughters to the wilderness?
Therefore, before the old man could speak, Li Chengqian jumped out first: "Asking for a kiss? I'm sorry, this palace doesn't look down on you princesses of Tibet, so let's forget it. ”
"Uh~" Shang Nang was stunned for a moment, a little confused about the situation, and only after a while did he say: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the foreign minister means to ask for the Tang Princess!" ”
"That's not it, the princess of the Tang Dynasty doesn't look down on you Tubo lords." Li Chengqian rolled his eyes and pushed back again.
Just when Shang Nang was embarrassed and didn't know what to do, Wang Qi walked out of the court class and refuted in a deep voice: "His Royal Highness the Prince, don't mess around, this matter is not trivial, and it needs to be discussed in the long run." ”
Li Chengqian glanced at the old man secretly, and when he saw that the old man didn't mean to speak, he immediately had confidence: "Nonsense? The person who married me is a member of my Li family, not your Wang family, why do you say that this palace is messing around? Could it be jealousy? Do you want your Wang family daughter to marry? ”
"I ......" Lao Wang Jue was almost angry, is this especially about marrying a girl? When two countries talk about marriage, they talk about the exchange of interests behind marriage.
"What? Does the king really have this idea? It doesn't matter, who do you want to marry? Bring it to the palace, recognize a godfather from the palace, and immediately become the new princess of the Tang Dynasty, and the palace will give some dowry to ensure that she will marry beautifully. Li Chengqian was used to spraying with people on the Internet in his later life, and he didn't let go of his mouth when he grabbed a little bit, and insisted that Wang Qi wanted to marry his daughter.
Wei Heizi saw that the old king was about to turn his back on his back in anger, so he hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and said to Li Chengqian at the same time: "His Royal Highness the Prince, this is a major matter of diplomatic relations between the two countries, how can it be simply based on the marriage of children and daughters, please be cautious." ”
"Diplomatic relations between the two countries?" Li Chengqian asked rhetorically, glanced at Shang Nang, and said to Wei Zheng: "Uncle Wei, you ask him what the situation in Tubo is now, and see what he says." ”
For Wei Zheng, Li Chengqian didn't dare to be like Wang Zheng, after all, this old guy is very upright, and his reputation is very good, and later generations will also have a very high evaluation of him.
What's going on in Tibet? Wei Zheng frowned, raised his head and looked at Li Er, and after receiving acquiescence, he asked, "Special envoy Shang Nang, I don't know if you can give advice?" ”
"This~" Shang Nang is now eager to strangle Li Chengqian, it was a good thing, but now he is making a mess, not to mention it, if you don't get it right, you will have to make a mess.
"What? It's hard to say? The old lord was poisoned, right? Songtsen Gampo can't withstand the rebellion of the old aristocracy? The country of Zhangxiong is about to hit your capital, right? ”
Li Chengqian asked three questions in a row, and Shang Nang's face turned pale every time he asked, and when the last question was finished, the Tubo prime minister had fallen to the ground weakly, and the boss with his mouth open looked at Li Chengqian with ghost-like eyes.
Seeing the performance of the Tibetan envoy, Li Er knew that what Li Chengqian said should be right, but in line with the principle of not being able to 'punish without teaching', the old man still asked with a gloomy face: "The Tibetan envoy, what my country's prince said is true?" ”
Shang Nang got up from the ground, cold sweat was dripping from the corners of his forehead, and he said urgently: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, my lord has quelled the rebellion, and the country has been stabilized and stabilized." ”
This old guy is really scared, scared to death.
Of course, he is not worried about his life or death, Datang, as a state of etiquette, even if he is not satisfied with his actions, Dingtian will expel him from the country.
But Tubo is too weak now, if the Tang Dynasty takes the opportunity to send troops, Tubo will be destroyed immediately.
Shang Nang now regrets it, regretting how he was lost by ghosts, and remembered to take advantage of the opportunity to ask for relatives in Datang and borrow the power of Datang to quell the rebellion in the country.
Right now...... Everything can only be left to fate, if His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is angry and sends troops because of his actions, then he will become a sinner in Tibet through the ages.
Li Er was silent for a long time, and finally slowly spoke: "Well, you go down first." ”
"Your Majesty, Foreign Minister...... Shang Nang wanted to plead a few more words, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he saw Li Er's gloomy face, and couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and bowed outward.
"Wait." Unexpectedly, he wanted to leave, but Li Chengqian didn't intend to let him go, and walked down from the imperial steps: "If this palace is not mistaken, your current lord Songtsen Gampo should be thirteen years old, right?" ”
"Yes, yes." The corners of Shang Nang's eyes jumped wildly, feeling that Tubo had no secrets at all in front of Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian didn't care what Shang Nang thought, and said to himself: "Help me bring a message to him, just say: This palace is waiting for him!" ”
"Yes, yes!" Shang Nang now just wants to leave quickly, and then rush back to Tubo as quickly as possible, ready to deal with the Tang Dynasty's soldiers.
"Prince, you have a lot of confidence in that Tubo lord!" After Shang Nang withdrew, Li Er said to Li Chengqian, who had returned to his original position.
Li Chengqian smiled: "Father, Songtsen Gampo is the same age as his son, why don't you leave it to your son to practice?" ”
"Okay, it is said that opponents are hard to find in the world, since you want to find an opponent, then I will keep him." Li Er laughed, seemingly satisfied with Li Chengqian's fighting spirit.
But in fact, both father and son know that even if Datang is prosperous, he is powerless against the country on that plateau, and a single qi disease is an insurmountable obstacle for Datang.
Therefore, it is not so much that Li Chengqian has high morale, it is better to say that he is finding a proper reason for Li Er not to send troops.
