I have to say that Songtsen Gampo's silent ridicule was a 'heavy' blow to Li Chengqian, but it also brought the relationship between the two people closer.

After Li Chengqian, who was embarrassed and angry, looked at Songtsan Gampo with an indifferent face helplessly and sighed and said, "Say, I begged you, can I succeed?" ”

"Done!" Songtsan agreed shamelessly, and Li Chengqian, who had provoked him, glared again.

However, Songtsen Gampo did not give Li Chengqian a chance to break out again, and said directly: "The two countries want to seek peace, I don't say this, you must also know this." ”

"Getting to the point."

"The point is that I ask the two countries to decide whether they are alive or dead, and Datang only needs a spokesperson on the peninsula. What do you think of this request? When it comes to business, Songtsen Gampo gets to the point unequivocally, and all the intermediate processes are omitted by him.

However, Li Chengqian did not mean to be dissatisfied, he thought that Songtsam was very good in this way, and he only sought results in everything, not the process. From his point of view, the process is not important, as long as Songtsen Gampo can complete the task and achieve the current point where the Tang Dynasty can dominate the peninsula at the lowest cost.

As for whether Songtsen Gampo ate Silla and Baekje in one go, or whether he borrowed heavenly soldiers from heaven to destroy the two countries, this is not a matter of concern to Li Chengqian.

What he wants is this kind of talent who can take charge of himself, otherwise if he has to take care of every detail personally, then he, the prince, is afraid that he will be regarded as a bitter force, although now he is not much stronger than the hard force, but he is always stronger.

So after a short silence, Li Chengqian said coldly: "Continue to squeeze them, and press out their last strength." ”

"Yes! As you wish! Songtsen Gampo performed a ritual reserved for the Tibetan aristocracy, got up and exited Li Chengqian's study, and went to trouble Silla and Baekje.

Some time ago, they were suppressed too hard by Li Chengqian, and finally there was a suppression target, how could Songtsan let them go so easily.

And Li Chengqian is not pedantic, while giving him full trust, he also gave him a great degree of freedom, which Songtsen Gampo was very satisfied with, although he did not dare to say that there was a feeling of death for those who knew it, but at least he did not feel wronged.

In fact, Songtsan is also gambling on what Li Chengqian's attitude towards him is, whether he wants to use him as cannon fodder, or really as a talent who stands alone.

So the last time he took an errand from Lee Seung-gan's study and left, he directly met with the envoys of Silla and Baekje, and at that time he could have expressed his opinion in a more peaceful way, but out of the test of Lee Seung-gan, he decided to use the most drastic means.

Now it seems that he has won the bet, and Li Chengqian has given him great trust, and even if he knows that he is deliberately provoking a war, he still does not take back his rights.

"Songtsan Zampu, don't tell lies in front of real people, this king is very curious, why would you choose to do things for the Tang Dynasty when Tubo was annexed by the Tang Dynasty? Have you forgotten the people of the plateau? "In Honglu Temple, Queen Seondeok of Silla appeared for the first time, and she opened her mouth to poke directly at the key point of Songtsen Gampo.

This was the first time that Songtsen Gampo took the initiative to meet with the envoys of Silla and Baekje after leaving Li Chengqian's study, but before he could take the initiative to attack, he was defeated by Seondeok's army.

However, Songtsen Gampo is not so easy to deal with, looking at the arrogant Silla people in front of him, he smiled faintly and said: "This point does not need the queen's concern, the people of the plateau have the way of life of the people of the plateau, let's think about the problems you are facing now." ”

"We are both subject countries of the Tang Dynasty, and this king does not need Zampu to intervene in it." Queen Seondeok was very resolute, although she knew very well that the meaning of Songtsen Gampo was the meaning of the Tang Dynasty, but she still wanted to hear His Majesty Li Er speak.

Of course, Shande personally came to Datang to deliver the goods to the door, but unfortunately Comrade Lao Li went to Mount Tai, and no one signed for the delivery, so I have to say that it is indeed a little embarrassing.

"Seondeok, it's not that you need anyone to intervene now, but that only one of you, Silla and Baekje, can continue to exist, and Datang will never allow two forces on the island, I believe you should know more than me." In response to goodness, Songtsen Gampo threw out the final bottom line.

"I think Zampu misunderstood what I meant, this king wants to decide this matter Zampu is not qualified enough, and the young prince in the palace is also not qualified." Shande also fought hard, and did not save any face for Songzan, and at the same time, even Li Chengqian was brought in.

Speaking of which, there was basically no need to talk about it, and the Baekje envoy on the side showed a bright smile on his face: "Respected envoy of the Tang Dynasty, please don't be angry about the momentary righteousness of the Queen of Silla, Baekje will always support the decision of the Tang Dynasty." ”

"Really? Did the envoy have any unique point of view to say? The smile on Songtsen Gampo's face remained unchanged, as if he had not heard the words of Queen Seondeok just now.

At the level of the lord of their country, their thoughts are already fundamentally different from those of others, and one or two humiliating words will not be taken to their hearts, as long as they can hit the goal, it is nothing.

And the reason why the queen of Silla is like this is because she was forced into a corner, and she is really powerless to resist, how can Songtsen Gampo, as a vested interest, argue with her.

"Baekje is willing to become the agent of the Tang Dynasty on the island, but our troops are limited, and the price of domestic food is skyrocketing, even if we want to send troops, we are powerless." The people of Baekje make no secret of their purpose.

In their opinion, Songtsen Gampo is Li Chengqian's agent, and Li Chengqian is the one who wants to inherit the Tang Dynasty in the future, so there will be no problem in doing what they want.

Another point is that everyone in Tibet is cowardly, what else can they hold on to in Baekje, the rise of the Tang Dynasty is already unstoppable, and there will be no good fruit to eat if they continue to resist.

After all, the Tang Dynasty was on the border with tens of thousands of troops, and although it could launch the most fierce attacks on Silla and Baekje, it was not a great thing to admit defeat under such circumstances.

"I will convey the difficulties you face to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but I hope that you will keep your promises and not be like some countries." Songtsen Gampo looked meaningfully at Queen Seondeok.

For this woman who does not know how to lift, Songtsen Gampo does not have any good feelings, and even has a lack of interest in Silla.

He didn't care which country was left on the island last, and maybe it would be a good idea to let Baekje destroy Silla.
