Chapter 1053: Reactions of the Parties (Part II)
As carrier pigeons flew into the distance, the northern grasslands, the western deserts, the southern jungles, and the eastern east, all the countries that received the news sent their own envoys to Chang'an, the center of the Tang Dynasty, with a 'sincere' heart!
In addition to Goguryeo, which was being forced by Li Chengqian, the envoys of dozens of small countries around the Tang Dynasty hurried to Chang'an in a much shorter time than before to participate in the activities to see Li Yuan off.
Gaochang, Linyi and other countries are much more respectful than before because most of them are controlled by the Tang Dynasty, while other countries are frightened by the strong strength of the Tang Dynasty, which is also very uneasy.
Especially when he saw Songtsen Gampo, the lord of Tubo, like a filial son and virtuous grandson, dressed exactly like Li Zhi, the ninth prince of the Tang Dynasty, lying in front of Li Yuan's coffin and crying bitterly, he didn't know what to do.
Who doesn't know that Tibet is a new and powerful country, and who doesn't know that Songtsen Gampo is the first person after Jieli Khan to dare to attack the Tang Dynasty.
But such a person, such a guy who acted as the government at the age of 12 and used three or five years to unify Tibet, is now crying for him as Li Yuan's grandchild, which makes a group of envoys from various countries embarrassed and unable to deal with themselves.
In terms of national strength, many of them were not as strong as Tibet, and in terms of monarchs, their monarchs were not as talented as Songtsen Gampo. Now that Songtsen Gampo has done it to this extent, what should they do? Crying along? Do you still want face?
Don't cry along? What if it causes Datang's dissatisfaction? The prince of the Tang Dynasty led an army of 100,000 to fight all the cities of Goguryeo, and almost occupied half of Goguryeo.
With such a fierce god here, who dares to dissatisfy Datang? What if that guy finishes finding trouble in Goguryeo and leaves his hands free to turn around and find trouble for himself? Do you want to live?
Just when the envoys were entangled, a figure flashed out of the crowd, and a heart-rending cry resounded through Da'an Palace: "Emperor Ancestor, why did you go like this, you are leaving, how can we be lost lambs!" ”
I'm going to go, who the hell is this, so shameless?
Everyone looked at the figure who rushed out, but found that the goods had wrapped themselves in layers of white linen, and from a distance it looked like a large white cocoon, and it was impossible to tell who it was.
Li Er, who was sitting on the side guarding the old man's spirit, was also a little dazed, and he couldn't figure out where this shameless guy came from, and when he had such a big grandson!
The word ancestor usually refers to more than five generations, and if someone comes to Li Yuan and calls him an ancestor, then he must be at least four generations younger than Li Er, which means that this guy who suddenly came out is one generation younger than Li Er's grandson.
What the hell is this? Lao Li's eldest son has just come of age, how can he have such a big great-grandson?
Songtsan Gampo, who was helping Li Yuan cry, was also stunned, and even forgot to cry when he looked at the guy who came to rob his business.
"Who are you? When did Grandpa Huang have such a great-grandson as you? Just when everyone was confused and couldn't figure out what was going on, Li You jumped out from the side, pulled the white cocoon of Zhenghuan who was crying, and asked dissatisfiedly.
However, the next sentence of the white cocoon directly made Li Xiaowu speechless: "Xiao Wang Gaochang Ju Zhisheng, I have seen the fifth grandfather!" ”
Five grandfathers?! Is Lao Tzu really that old? And how is this generation calculated? Li You, the little overlord of Taiji Palace, was stunned in place, and there was no trace of the domineering spirit that was usually exposed on the side, as if he had been struck by lightning.
However, fortunately, the old eunuch Fang was clever and saw that the situation was not right, so he immediately arranged the next step and let the envoys of various countries participate in the memorial, which alleviated the embarrassing atmosphere.
But because of this child's play played by Ju Zhisheng and Songtsen Gampo, the envoys of other countries are no longer easy to salute, and they have compared the status of their countries with those of Tubo and Gaochang, and ranked them according to their national strength!
For a time, those who were called ancestors, grandfathers, and ancestors were called all the envoys of the country cried as if they had died their own mother.
Faced with such a situation, Li Er didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
If you think about it in the long run, the title of Li Yuan by these envoys is almost equivalent to determining the status of the countries in the face of the Tang Dynasty, that is to say, in the future, these countries will not interact with the Tang Dynasty as subject countries, but as descendants of the Tang Dynasty.
This kind of relationship is a good thing for Datang, which is equivalent to downgrading the status of the countries to a level in Datang Prefecture and County, whether it is a reward or a notice in the future, it will be much easier.
But as a kind of condolence between countries, this kind of title for Lao Li Yuan is very strange no matter how you look at it, and there is a sense of drama.
But fortunately, the time of condolences was not long, and after half a day, all the messengers withdrew, and Da'an Palace once again returned to its previous calm.
The next day, some of the envoys from various countries who participated in the condolences set off to go home, and some retreated in the post house to wait for a while to see if there was a chance to meet the Tang Emperor and show their loyalty to the Tang Dynasty on behalf of their own monarchs, and among these people, there were envoys from Silla and Baekje.
Compared with other countries that are bent on participating in the condolences, these two countries with ulterior motives are thinking about how to take a piece of meat from the mouth of the Tang Dynasty.
The Tang prince led an army of 100,000 to sweep through Goguryeo, and if he could defeat the hundreds of thousands of reinforcements sent by Goguryeo, then no one could be sure what he could do next.
The prince of the Tang Dynasty is different from ordinary generals, his identity determines that he has a lot of autonomy, although sometimes it will cause the emperor Laozi's displeasure because of various changes, but in the case of the emperor's full trust, the biggest gentleman of the Tang Dynasty can run rampant on this continent.
Not to mention the pacification of Goguryeo, even if Silla and Baekje were destroyed together, no one would say anything, after all, they had a good father.
Because of the above reasons, the envoys of the two countries with all kinds of calculations couldn't wait to see Li Er, and wanted to ask for an edict from Li Er, so that they could unscrupulously embezzle those territories that originally belonged to them, but should theoretically belong to the Tang Dynasty in the future.
Unlike them, the rest of the countries that remain have their eyes on the so-called food amplifier.
Those families who have suffered losses have taken the opportunity of this gathering of all countries to take out the 'toys' that they bought at a high price some time ago, and under various banners, they have lured those envoys of various countries who are like turtles, intending to cheat the money back from them.
