Chapter 5 Tripartite Conspiracy

"I've seen King Rongliu!"

Goguryeo Palace!

Fuyu Zhang made a salute, respectful and very polite.

The envoy of the Yamato Kingdom beside Fuyu Zhang, Su Icang Malu, was arrogant, and only symbolically expressed his goodwill, but did not salute.

The displeasure of Gao Jianwu, the king of Rongliu, flashed, and soon Fuyu Zhang was attracted to it.

Gao Jianwu heard that his cronies had come to report the arrival of the envoys of Yamato and Baekje, and he planned to drive them away directly, but under the persuasion of his henchmen and Hou Wu, he still agreed to meet them.

Originally, I thought that I would just send it away, but I didn't want to come and it turned out to be the lord of a country, and I was in a dilemma.

Gao Jianwu can also be regarded as a promising king, but he was born at the wrong time in the era when the powerful ministers were in power, although he held the administrative power of Goguryeo, but the military power was always in the hands of Yuan Dazuo.

In order to deal with Yuan Dazuo, Gao Jianwu changed Goguryeo's hostile style to the Central Plains Dynasty and tried his best to reconcile with the Tang Dynasty.

The hostility between the Central Plains and Goguryeo lies between the Sui Dynasty and the King of Goguryeo, the Sui Dynasty caused changes in the country due to the three military conquests of Goguryeo, and the group rebelled, and finally led the Zhì Dynasty to change hands, and the entangled enemy King Yingyang also died of illness and withdrew from the stage of history. The hatred between the two sides cannot be said to be eliminated here, but both sides have suffered from the war and are trying their best to develop, and both sides also have the intention of putting aside their grievances for the time being.

Compared with the thriving Li Tang, Goguryeo is obviously more miserable. Especially in Luo Shixin's trouble, Gao Jianwu lost their Goguryeo military god E-zhi Wende, and he was at a disadvantage in the internal fighting. The worse the environment, the more inseparable it is from relying on Datang. as a successor. Gao Jianwu's top priority at the moment was to rectify domestic problems and consolidate political stability. They are reluctant to perpetuate the spectre of war. In previous years, when the Tang Dynasty defeated the Turks. sent an envoy to congratulate Li Tang, expressing his willingness to surrender, respecting the Tang Dynasty as the suzerain, and doing his best to bridge the rift with the new dynasty of the Central Plains.

In order to show his desire for peace, he sent envoys to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty three times that year.

At the beginning of the ninth year of Wude, Li Yuan had not yet taken the throne, and he was grateful to the Han soldiers who died in Goguryeo due to the attack on Goguryeo in the last years of the Sui Dynasty, and wrote a letter to Gao Jianwu and agreed with each other that the Goguryeo people who remained in the Tang Dynasty for some reason would escort them back to China, and those who stayed in Goguryeo for some reason in the Sui Dynasty should also be asked to return to China. Gao Jianwu in order to cooperate with Li Yuan. Searching for all the outlaws who stayed in the northeast, handing them over to the relevant officials, and escorting them back to the Tang Dynasty as guests, nearly 10,000 people before and after.

Gao Jianwu is still extremely pro-Tang because of this relationship.

The Tang Dynasty was sanctioning Baekje and Yamato, and Gao Jianwu did not have the slightest intention of dealing with Baekje and Yamato. But it was Baekje Muowang who came, so the meaning was different.

If Gao Jianwu issued an expulsion order, it was likely to trigger a war between Goguryeo and Baekje and Yamato, and he did not want to offend the suzerainty of the Tang Dynasty. I don't want to offend Baekje and Yamato...... In a dilemma.

Gao Jianwu pondered for a moment, and did not arrange for them to be seated, but said: "It is really rare for the King of Baekje and the Yamato envoy to visit late at night. You must have worked hard from afar. I'll give you a place to stay and rest. If there is something, I will talk about it tomorrow. "Between the Tang Dynasty and Baekje and Yamato. Gao Jianwu finally decided to side with the Tang Dynasty, but just closed the mud. Didn't do things perfectly.

Su I Cang Ma Lu snorted coldly, turned around and left.

Fuyu Zhang sighed wistfully. A look of decline and sorrow.

Fu Yuzhang's expression strengthened Gao Jianwu's choice. What he didn't know was that Fu Yuzhang turned around, and his expression was not sad, but a sneer.

Su Icang Malu and Fuyu Zhang beat themselves out of the Goguryeo palace and got into the carriage that they came together.

"How? What do I mean by cuò? Gao Jianwu is an incompetent coward, a waste who can't be helped, and he will not agree to cooperate with you. ”

There was also a man in the carriage, a scholar in black, gloomy and cold.

Su Ikura Maro didn't speak from the beginning, and then he spoke: "I'm curious, Mr. Otoji is the most trusted first confidant of King Rongliu, and King Rongliu is your father's student. You don't help King Rongliu, but help Yuan Dazuo, but you don't know what your heart is. ”

The black-clothed scholar is called Eulji Houwu, the second son of Eulji Wendeok, the Goguryeo military god. Yizhi Wende has high hopes for his two sons, and they share the word civil and military, hoping that they will become successful in literature and martial arts. As a result, the boss Hou Wen was as fierce and brave as Zhang Fei; Hou Wu is polite and polite, proficient in the Three Tao Six Strategies, Sun Tzu's Art of War, and has won the true biography of Yizhi Wende.

Ulzhi Hou Wudao: "Wisdom is more important than choice, and my father worked hard for Goguryeo all his life. made great contributions to his Gao family, and also suffered humiliation because of Gao's country. At the height of his prestige, he chose to retire. For the sake of his Gao family, my father and eldest brother both died tragically at the hands of Tang Luo Shixin. I thought that Gao Jianwu was a character, and if I helped him clear his internal worries, he would help me avenge the blood sea. Haha, who knows, Datang fought a few beautiful battles, and he was so scared that he didn't dare to be an enemy of Datang, and tried his best to curry favor. He has forgotten the enmity of my father and brother, such a character, where is it worth serving? Also, you're wrong. I didn't choose the incompetent Yuan Dazuo, but his son, Yuan Gai Suwen. Yuan Gai Su Wen is heroic and strong, brave and strategic, and is a hundred times better than Zhiyuan Dazuo and Gao Jianwu. Cooperating with him is far more advantageous than cooperating with Gao Jianwu, who is timid and afraid. ”

Fuyu Zhang said quietly: "But you must know that Yuangai Suwen has a father who presses him, and the king of Goguryeo can be even more Gao Jianwu." It is true that the Yuan clan holds military power, and every administrative position is under the control of Gao Jianwu. ”

"Of course I do!" Eulji Hou Wudao: "So if you want to cooperate, you want me to go Goguryeo and you Yamato Baekje together to deal with the Tang Dynasty and deal with Silla, first of all, you help my family to seize the control of Goguryeo." As for Yuan Dazuo, don't worry. He is very old, and he has long intended to hand over a qiē to my son-in-law, but he lacks an opportunity...... As long as my lord holds the real power of Goguryeo, I am sure that I will get you out of your current predicament. Let Li Tang pay the price and let them know that I, Goguryeo, am the nemesis of their Central Plains Dynasty. The Sui Dynasty died because of us, and Li Tang couldn't ask for this fate. There was hatred in his eyes, and there was a sense of confidence.

Su Icang Malu and Fuyu Zhang glanced at each other, and there was a shock in their eyes. Their original intention was to unite to break the deadlock, and they never thought of posing any threat to Datang......

Soga Kuro is the younger brother of Soga Ezo, a powerful minister of the Yamato Kingdom, and this visit to Goguryeo can represent Soga Ezo with full powers, representing the meaning of the entire Yamato Kingdom. (To be continued......)
