His Majesty Li Er's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had found another ray of light from Guo Ye's words.

couldn't help but ask: "Could it be that Guo Qing has any other way, which is more suitable than to appease Tibet with his relatives?" ”

His Majesty Li Er called Guo Qing lightly, completely shattering the last bit of anxiety in Guo Ye's heart, subconsciously touched the back of his neck, and muttered secretly, this head can be regarded as saved.

Immediately, Guo Ye nodded and responded: "Of course, marrying the princess of the Tang Dynasty with relatives and entering Tubo is the next policy to abandon the original and chase the end." Chen thinks that our Tang Empire has not fallen to the point of relying on women to tie up foreign clans. Phew, look at my broken mouth, how can I speak? ”

Guo Ye pretended to be remorseful and slapped his mouth lightly, and said with a cheap smile: "The bad idea of kissing is definitely not something Your Majesty came up with. Your Majesty has every opportunity and is engaged in state affairs every day, and it is inevitable that he will sometimes be bewitched and misled by some ministers and thieves, so he has chosen such methods. ”

At this time, Guo Ye did not forget to pat His Majesty Li Er's ass on the back, and splashed a basin of dirty water on Xiao Yu and others.

When His Majesty Li Er heard this, his stiff face twitched reluctantly, and he nodded with a forced smile: "That is, I have thousands of twists and turns to deal with in one day, and I can't leave the palace half a step, so as not to be misled by others." Guo Qing, let's listen to it, what is more suitable for you than to be friendly. ”

Guo Ye secretly despised His Majesty Li Er, who wanted to save face and suffer for his life, and then said loudly: "Okay, Your Majesty came to ask, and the ministers should know everything and say everything." Hey? Your Majesty, the minister was frightened for a whole day today, and he didn't even eat a single piece of rice, and he was a little hungry and panicked. Can you give the minister a bowl of porridge and rice, and let the minister make up for the stomach first? ”

"Snort, I beat the snake with the stick, I asked you to ask the teacher for the crime, but you asked me to ask you to eat and drink? Hmph, wait a minute......"

His Majesty Li Er angrily counted down Guo Ye's two sentences, and shouted in the direction of the palace: "Empress, have you slept peacefully?" Didn't you make me a supper before? Come, let someone present it to Guo Qing's family to relieve hunger. ”

Soon, there was a response from the other end of the dormitory.

In fact, Guo Ye really didn't want to ask His Majesty Li Er for a bowl of porridge and rice, in fact, this guy didn't have a bottom in his heart, and deliberately played tricks to verify for the last time whether His Majesty Li Er was really not hostile to him.

It turns out that His Majesty Li Er shouted at the dormitory, which completely reassured this kid and made him feel at ease.

After a while, as soon as the bead curtain of the dormitory was opened, a graceful woman Qingsi walked out step by step, and it was the eldest grandson Empress herself who was preparing to sleep.

Empress Changsun dragged a wooden plate in her hand, and a delicate jade bowl was placed on the plate, and the fragrance wafted from the bowl.

Uh, Guo Yegou's nose sniffed lightly, lotus seed soup?

Immediately, he hurriedly stepped forward to take the tray in the hands of Empress Changsun, and said respectfully: "What a blessing has this been?" It is blessed to let the queen mother personally send a bowl of lotus seed soup to the minister, blessed, really blessed. ”

"It turned out to be Guo Ye?"

Empress Changsun watched Guo Ye appear in the Ganlu Hall in the middle of the night, and said in surprise: "It turns out that you are a little slippery head that has made Your Majesty angry, and you refuse to rest for a long time?" ”

"I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed!"

In the face of the eldest grandson queen, who seemed to be soft and unsharp, but in fact hid needles in the cotton, Guo Ye was embarrassed for a while, and he couldn't resist it.

This woman really lives up to her reputation, and she is worthy of the good name of the eternal future, and she is no more reckless than her husband His Majesty Li Er.

Guo Ye was speechless, with the lotus seed soup in front, he drank in a hurry, how rude and how to come, seeing the queen of the eldest grandson shook his head with a wry smile, and did not forget to look at his husband.

Seeing this, His Majesty Li Er was also a big head, why can't this guy learn to be a little more reserved and humble and gentlemanly?

The two glanced at each other, and a little inexplicable relief flashed in their eyes.

When Guo Ye drank the lotus seed soup, he stuck out his tongue shamelessly and licked the wall and mouth of the bowl for a while, looking like he was dead, he saw that the Li couple was blind for a while, and shouted in his heart, where is the demeanor that a Tang official should have?

His Majesty Li Er really couldn't stand it anymore, so he waved his hand at Empress Changsun and said in a low voice: "Empress, you go back to rest first, and I will sleep later." ”

Empress Changsun snorted, no longer said a word, deliberately turned around and returned to the palace, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, this ancestral precept of all dynasties, Empress Changsun is an unswerving supporter.

As soon as the queen left, His Majesty Li Er scolded Guo Ye, who was still licking the scraps of the bowl and was like a starving ghost reincarnated: "Enough, hurry up and talk about your method, I am tired, and I have to get up early to go to court tomorrow." ”

Guo Ye sighed, put the jade bowl back on the table with a smile, and then said softly: "Your Majesty, your current distress should be that you are in a dilemma, right?" Here, he agreed to the request of the Tibetan envoys, and promised to marry Princess Wencheng to Tubo Zanpu Songzan Gampo, and the two countries will marry; But what about over there? For some reason, millions of people in Chang'an City unanimously oppose and pro-Tibetan, and the public opinion is so strong that you have to think carefully. Does that mean? ”

"Nonsense!"

His Majesty Li Er shouted: "It's not that you did a good job? If it weren't for you, how could I be in such an awkward situation? Think about it, if I promised the Tibetan envoys, where would I put the millions of people in Chang'an? Not conforming to the will of the people, ignoring the voice of the people, and openly resenting it, is this what a wise man did? But if I obey the will of the people and openly repent, how can I explain it to the Tibetan side? I am the son of heaven of the Tang Dynasty, how can I not believe in my words? ”

Speaking of this, His Majesty Li Er's mind was suddenly full of mush, and he couldn't help but accuse: "Guo Ye, Guo Ye, it was you who put me in this dilemma, you, you, I can't wait to cut your ...... with a thousand knives."

"Your Majesty, you can't do it, you can't do it!"

Seeing that His Majesty Li Er had been ignited by himself again, Guo Ye interrupted again and again: "Your Majesty, if you slash the minister with a knife now, who will solve this dilemma for you?" Isn't it? ”

His Majesty Li Er waved his hand irritably, and shouted, "Don't be verbose, hurry up!" ”

Guo Ye's eyes purred, and he lowered his voice and said, "Your Majesty, in fact, this matter is very easy to handle. Tomorrow, you ask the Ministry of Rites Shangshu Li Gang to draft a few letters of state, and then send them to the lords of the countries such as Nibraluo, Gaochang, Xue Yantuo, and even Tuyuhun and other countries in an expedited manner. ”

"Huh?"

His Majesty Li Er knew that Guo Ye had something to say below, so he didn't ask a question and motioned for him to continue.

Guo Ye understood and continued: "Your Majesty, think about it, as long as these countries are not alliances, they will be brought out one by one, to put it bluntly, they are all small families, and they are not comparable to our Datang." As long as Your Majesty is ambiguous in the national letter, whoever marries Princess Wencheng, the Tang Dynasty will definitely support him, make him prosperous and strong, and make him crown the crown of other countries. Who do you think of them as calm as they are? Don't look at them all huddled together into barriers, hum, when it comes to interests, I guess they are more fierce than wild dogs grabbing food. ”

His Majesty Li Er's face was calm, and he continued to ask: "Then what?" ”

"And then?" Guo Ye said with a smile, "After confirming that the other countries in the Western Regions have received His Majesty's letter of state, you will summon the envoys of Tubo again, and say that now all countries have heard that my Tang Dynasty is going to give Princess Wencheng to marry Princess Yu Songtsan Gampo, and the monarchs of all countries have sent envoys to Chang'an to send letters of state, asking to marry Princess Wencheng." At this moment, a rift was torn in the alliance between the Tubo State and the countries of the Western Regions. ”

His Majesty Li Er couldn't help but nod his head when he heard this, and asked, "Then how should I deal with that Tibetan envoy?" ”

Guo Yedao: "When the time comes, you will say that you are very distressed and feel pressure, and you don't know which lord of the country to marry Princess Wencheng." You simply come to an indefinite prevarication, or set a date for Tubo, Gaochang and other countries to set a ring and make a bet or something, such as choosing a place to have a multi-event exercise a year later, and whichever country wins will Princess Wencheng and her relatives to which country. In this way, isn't the burden of your dilemma thrown away? ”

His Majesty Li Er asked, "How many ** exercises?" Why? ”

Guo Ye hurriedly explained: "Well, it means that several countries each send an army to simulate a non-real war and screen out the winners and losers. ”

"Oh, that's fresh, it's funny!"

His Majesty Li Er listened to this, nodded more and more frequently, and sighed sincerely: "This is a good way, which can not only conform to the will of the people, but also prevent the Tubo Kingdom from slowly becoming strong and prosperous through my Tang Dynasty." The key is that the alliance of the Western Regions countries can disintegrate the other party from within and make them feel estranged, yes, this is indeed the best of both worlds. It's good, it's good, it's really good! ”

His Majesty Li Er praised three times in a row, and Guo Ye's heart was full of joy when he heard it.

However, His Majesty Li Er suddenly frowned and shook his head: "Then if I set up a ring to make a bet for them, and the military exercise a year later will divide the winner and lose, won't I want to make peace with one of the several countries?" Won't we have to face the situation and situation we have today? ”

Guo Ye chuckled and said: "My Majesty, alas, you also said that after a year, there are too many variables after a year, who can say for sure?" And just because they have to divide the high and low after a year, maybe these countries will secretly start to compete with each other frequently. Maybe three months later, Nibra destroyed Xue Yantuo, maybe half a year later, Tubo also destroyed Gaochang Kingdom? Under the temptation of profit, no one can say for sure. However, our ultimate goal is not to break their alliance, is it possible that I, the Tang Dynasty, will deal with a Tubo or a mud Bora alone, and will we still look ahead and backwards, and tie our hands and feet? ”

"Wonderful!"

After listening to Guo Ye's explanation, His Majesty Li Er actually gave an unprecedented thumbs up and praised: "It's definitely a clever plan." Guo Ye, ghost talent, ghost talent, you are a ghost talent! Could it be that you, as Ma Zhou recommended with me before, don't learn and have no skills, but have skills in your heart? ”

Guo Ye pretended to clench his fists and said humbly: "A slight trick is not worth it!" Your Majesty is really ridiculous! ”

At this time, His Majesty Li Er looked at Guo Ye, he was full of appreciation and praise, where would he be able to raise Guo Ye's-stirring stick?

Guo Ye glanced at the candlesticks in the hall, they were all about to burn out, and then said: "Your Majesty, it's getting late, and the ministers will retire first, so as not to hinder Your Majesty's rest." ”

As he spoke, he bowed his hand again, and then turned around to leave.

Before the person reached the door of the hall, he was suddenly stopped by His Majesty Li Er's soft shout.

I only heard His Majesty Li Er say in a tone of sudden realization: "Okay, you thief bird, you almost escaped by you through a leak." I almost forgot how to punish you for slaying Tachira. Guo Ye, don't blame me for crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, unloading the mill and killing the donkey, and not punishing you, it is really difficult to appease the Tubo Songtsen Gampo family. After all, it was not an ordinary Tibetan person who died, but a dignified Tibetan prince. ”

Damn, Guo Ye's face suddenly turned like ashes, this catastrophe really can't be avoided if he wants to, he deliberately went around in a big circle just now, just to paralyze the attention of His Majesty Li Er.

Okay, now I'm going to put myself in it.

Immediately, Guo Ye turned around and shouted with a sad face: "Your Majesty, you can't do this, just say that you don't remember all my previous merits, you should always think that the minister has also contributed to solve the big trouble for you, right?" It's really not good, I don't want to be added to the knighthood, we have offset each other's merits, will it be successful? ”
