Chapter Seventy-Five: Posthumous Gift

This is an embarrassing topic, tomorrow is a generation late, because of his father, he has to be recognized as a righteous sister, which is okay, as the princess of the Tang Dynasty, she has not brought any benefits to the Tang Dynasty, but has been used by the Tubo people repeatedly, it is strange that Li Longji can have a good impression.

I finally heard the news of the princess's death thirteen years ago, and thought that I could finally get rid of it, but I didn't expect to be mentioned again, his face sank slightly, and his tone was stagnant.

"What does it have to do with her?"

Liu Ji arched his hand and said: "Before answering His Majesty's question, the minister has a question, I don't know if I can mention it?" ”

"Say."

"Princess Jincheng, is it my person from the Tang Dynasty or from Tibet?"

Li Longji's eyes shrank suddenly, and a stunning light shot out, Liu Ji first felt the majesty emanating from this emperor, but he still stood steadily, and he didn't even shake his hands.

"What do you mean by that?" Li Longji stared at him for a long time before speaking.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the princess is the daughter of the first emperor, and the blood of the clan is naturally my person from the Tang Dynasty, but in the eyes of the Tubo people, she was born in the Tang Dynasty for less than ten years, and she is only nine years old, and those who live in Tubo, where she has been for thirty years, the customs and words are no different from the locals, not to mention, she has a mother country, which is equal to no mother country, what country should she be counted as a person in the end?"

"Go on."

"Yes, the minister thought that the first emperor descended with a righteous princess in order to marry the two countries and stop the war, but in fact, in addition to accompanying the previous group of women, my Datang also took books, fruits, seeds, and technology, but did I get any benefits? How many days of real peace are there between the two countries? ”

Li Longji looked at him silently, but he couldn't help but think about his words in his heart, why did he marry back then, because the two countries were both in charge of the government, and both had the will to truce the army, and the Tang Dynasty was at the turn of great changes, and it was imperative to do this for the sake of the stability of the regime, but it was obvious that what the young man said was not this.

Liu Ji's words flowed in the hall and clearly reached everyone's ears.

"Datang not only married a princess and the state of Fan, what is the effect, the minister dare not speak, but the subsequent disposition, but some do not agree, take the princess of Jincheng as an example, she married at a young age, and the Tubo people's Zampu age is similar, it is a young couple, when the relationship is increasing, if, my Datang can always condole, everywhere to show the support of the mother country, help her, when he gives birth to Lin'er, you can poetry, teaching and learning to influence, with open and secret means to help it, so that it gradually grasps the power of Tibet, not a fool's dream, 10,000 steps back to say, Even if it doesn't work, provoking infighting in Tubo is not a great thing for my Datang? Such an affordable and harmless act, no one in the Manchu Dynasty can recognize it? As a result, she was lonely and helpless, and died in a foreign land, which was neither tolerated by the Tubo people nor liked by the mother country, was this the original intention of the original marriage? ”

"I want to ask, my Tang Dynasty is so strong, I still need to marry a weak woman in a foreign country, what do I do?"

Li Longji couldn't answer, because the matter was not his beginning and end, but Liu Ji's words implied accusations against him, which were also very obvious.

"Tell me, then, what to do?"

"The minister has the audacity to say, marry a daughter, get a country, if you don't have such an open-minded ambition, don't want to mention anything like sacrificing one's life for the country, it's all nonsense."

"Marry a daughter, get a country?"

Li Longji chewed this sentence in his mouth, and Liu Ji replied.

"Marry a daughter, get a country."

"Go on."

"This is why the minister wants to ask, the princess of Jincheng is the reason for the people of the country, she is the daughter of my Tang Dynasty, can only be the heart of the Tang Dynasty, if every woman who surrenders, in advance by the inner servant to teach the way of survival in the inner palace, for the customs of the state she marries, customs, strengthen its language and ability training, each princess with more than 10,000 male soldiers as help, so that it can stand in the country, hold the authority, if the country offends the princess for any reason, the Tang Dynasty will warn with the official letter of state, and even Chen Bing in the border deterrence, just imagine, what the minister saidIs it still a luxury? ”

Li Longji heard that he was chilled all over his body, what kind of marriage is this, it is simply a blatant seizure of the country, which princess of such a country dares to marry?

"I know how he used such a trick to take the capital of the Tibetans in one fell swoop."

"How dare you think about it."

Liu Ji smiled slightly: "If you don't even dare to think about it, what is the strength of living?" ”

"Good, good, good."

Li Longji stroked his palms and smiled, pointed at him and said, "Today's banquet is not false, not false. ”

Gao Lishi wiped the sweat from his head and continued with palpitations: "I can hear such words, and the old slave also feels that it is true, but it is too deviant. ”

"Yes, if you say this in the court, I am afraid that you will be sprayed to death by the saliva of the officials, how can this be done by a great country?"

"Then the minister didn't know, which book said that this was not a dignified act, and which sage had experienced such a powerful country? If the scriptures are wrong, the person who cites them will naturally be wrong, and it is not nonsense to refute the ministers with erroneous remarks? ”

"What a sharp mouth, you should go to the Imperial History Terrace and be a servant of the Imperial History." Li Longji said with a smile.

"The minister can't do it, the minister is in the Yushitai, it will definitely make the country have no peace, and the court is strife, Your Majesty should change the minister's seat."

Liu Ji said with a bitter face, and even made Li Longji Waner.

"Gao Lishi, do you remember the last person who was openly dissatisfied with my appointment and asked me to change him?"

"The old slave remembers."

Although they didn't say who it was, Liu Ji had already guessed that he was acting so exaggerated, in order to imitate this person, the current effect was even better than expected, and then, it was time to accept it.

"The minister will now answer His Majesty's previous question, the queen of the Tubo people was taken away by the Zhangxiong people, and they are in order to pay tribute to the princess of Jincheng, Princess Gayin has lived in the land of Zhangxiong for a long time, with supreme kindness, to form a good fate, and win the hearts of the people of Zhangxiong, more than the royal family, so they will be persuaded by the minister, resolutely throw themselves into the arms of the Tang Dynasty, and do not hesitate to fight to the death, and destroy the heart of the Tubo people in one fell swoop, and even the national capital!"

"I see." Li Longji sighed: "Jincheng has been dead for more than ten years, and he still makes contributions to the Tang Dynasty, and I want to praise him." ”

"Gao Lishi, write down my message, Princess Jincheng has been in Tibet for more than 30 years, upright for the country, cherishing the mother state, educating the people, merit in a foreign land, posthumously presenting the eldest princess of Qin, and recalling the stone to show her virtue."

"Ministers and the people of Xiangxiong, thank you to the heavenly Khan Longen!"

Liu Ji knew that after this edict, even if the previous few hidden dangers were filled, no matter what was discovered later, the Son of Heaven would not slap himself in the face, and now the only thing to cut down was Li Jingzhong's suspicion.
