Chapter 157: Killing Inside and Outside, the Prince is Afraid!

The silence of the envoy was expected, and it also corroborated that this so-called alliance would not promote the development of Datang at all, Li Tang showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth, and asked loudly:

"Ladies and gentlemen, there is only an alliance that has to give, and there is no return, are you willing to agree?"

The civil and military officials did not hesitate, and said in unison:

"I don't want to!"

Li Tang nodded, looked at the envoy of the four countries and said:

"You see, Datang will not form an alliance with your four countries, because your purpose is not pure!"

"This ......"

Except for the ministers of the Purple Lion Kingdom, the other ministers of the three kingdoms looked anxious, and the two standing princes were also at a loss and secretly anxious.

Bai Ming, who was lying on the ground, panting, asked out loud with a glint in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, the people of the Tang Dynasty are rumored to be the king of the sages, who admires the way of the sages, does not like soldiers, and loves peace, does it mean that the Tang Dynasty will not send troops to other countries. ”

The words are sharp, and with the general trend of sages, Li Tang's debate is restricted, and he is to the point, which shows that he is not an idle person.

This is the way of negotiation, and politics, economy, military, power, and diplomacy all have a crucial impact on the country.

For example, a thousand years ago, there was a powerful country, diplomatically, caught the trap of the enemy country, and made a national deed of non-expansion for a thousand years, but in a few hundred years, the national strength weakened and was annexed by the enemy country.

At this time, Bai Ming still fantasized that Li Tang could not refute and signed this national deed.

If it was really a monarch who worshiped sages, it was possible to sign this kind of national deed, but Li Tang couldn't, he advocated the way of sages, but only for domestic and foreign countries, he advocated killing.

No killing, how to protect the family and defend the country, how to compete in the world, how to realize your imperial dream!

After a pause, Li Tang opened his mouth and said, "Prince Bai, this regulation will not be signed by this king. ”

Bai Ming was stunned for a moment, and continued: "Could it be that the way of the sages advocated by King Tang is all false?"

Li Tang's eyes widened, and he didn't have the heart to negotiate, he stood up from the imperial chair, the dragon shadow surrounded him, domineering, and said in a deep voice:

"That's over! The future development path of my Datang Kingdom is not your turn to point fingers. ”

"In addition, this king will send you another word for the four kingdoms, natural selection, survival of the fittest, rather than going against the sky, it is better to give up and seek a way out. ”

After saying Xuan Ao's words, the dragon shadow dissipated, and Li Tang walked to the apse, not looking back, leaving the back of the dragon robe, and disappeared around the corner, before a eunuch shouted:

"Retreat!"

"Congratulations to the king!"

The ministers bowed, in groups of three or five, talking as they walked, and walked out of the council hall.

"Messengers, please!"

The rest of the ministers left, but the waiter of the Ministry of Rites stayed behind and said to the envoy of the four countries.

"Well, please find a few guards and send the two princes back to the inn. ”

Looking at the prince who couldn't walk, the minister of the White Cloud Country, he said with a smile on his face.

"Okay, you can't go away with this little injury, hypocrisy!"

The waiter of the Ministry of Rites nodded, turned around and made a complaining sound, which reached the ears of several people, making their faces extremely exciting.

"Inhumane, I've been wounded by you. Li Zhi and Bai Ming roared in their hearts, almost vomiting blood in anger.

Soon, several guards carried the two princes back to the inn on stretchers.

Looking at the goose feathers and heavy snow, several people felt a sense of melancholy in their hearts, and endless worries emerged, today's negotiations can be regarded as ruined!

When they entered the station, they all returned to their rooms, closed the doors and windows, and began to discuss.

"Your Royal Highness, it is impossible to form an alliance, what should we do now, should I return to China, or should I stay and wait and see what happens?" asked the Minister of the White Cloud Kingdom.

"Return to China and strengthen the border defense, as long as it takes a year, the Tang Kingdom will die!" Bai Ming said through gritted teeth.

"One year, prince, do you think that a year later, the Qi Tianhou Congress will attack the Tang Kingdom?" the minister asked.

Bai Ming nodded, and said fiercely: "This time, Qi Tianhou is defeated and signs a one-year contract, which is a great shame for them, once the deadline is up, they will definitely break through the Tang Kingdom, and at that time, the Tang Kingdom will die." ”

After hearing this, the minister thought a little and said: "The king sent us as an envoy to the Tang Kingdom, because he was worried that the Tang Congress would attack our country within this year and break the net?"

Bai Ming shook his head and said: "If you really want to fight, the fish will not die, but the net will break! What my father is worried about is that the Tang Kingdom will nourish the war with war and become strong! And our Baiyun Kingdom, in the gap between the two, is likely to become a stepping stone." ”

The minister nodded and remained silent, and at this moment, he began to understand the king's difficulty.

Don't look at the king of a country, he reigns over the world at home, and is above ten thousand people, but abroad, looking at the endless continent, he finds that he is also an ant.

Survive for the country and keep running, unless, you stand at the peak of the continent and dominate the five regions!

Not only the Baiyun Kingdom, the Xuanye Kingdom, and the Daliang Kingdom were all discussing, and they all decided to return to China immediately and sink the border.

Only the Purple Lion Kingdom Mission, which was unusually quiet, even a little weird, because everyone in the mission knew that the monarch of the Tang Kingdom was the tenth prince of the Purple Lion Country.

But happy?

One of the two monarchs, both from the Li family!

What a glory it would be if there was no hatred, but now, there is a deep hatred, and maybe there will be a national war!

Lying on the bed, Li Zhi's mind kept coming up with Li Tang's words in the National Palace, and said thoughtfully:

"Natural selection, survival of the fittest, now the Tang Dynasty is strong, the Purple Lion is weak, if there is a national war, it will be defeated!"

As he whispered, fear appeared in his eyes, and he immediately said: "No, there must be no war, the Purple Lion Kingdom will always belong to the Li royal family, and no one can take it away." ”

After saying that, he struggled to his feet and said to the guards outside:

"Come on, Prince Fuben will go to the Tang Palace!"

"Yes!"

The guards outside, although they were puzzled, did not ask, and immediately found a sedan chair and brought Li Zhi to the gate of the palace, wanting to enter, but was blocked.

"This general, I am the prince of the Purple Lion King, I have something important, I ask to meet the King of Tang, I hope to tell you!"

Li Zhi stepped out of the sedan chair, endured the pain, and said very politely.

"Wait a minute!"

The general guarding the imperial gate nodded, walked into the palace, went to find the eunuch in front of the palace, and after some reporting, passed the news to Li Tang's ears.

In the imperial study, Li Tang was holding a brush, and when he heard the news, he wrote down the drawings and wrote a killing word, which was bright red and gorgeous, releasing evil energy, making the eunuchs who served him shiver.

The place where the pen is written, in the Purple Lion Country, the famous Heavenly Fire City!

"Order, Li Zhi will come in the future, there is no need to report!" Then Li Tang's cold voice sounded.

After two hours like this, Li Zhi had been waiting at the imperial gate, the sky was getting dark, and after the snow had accumulated a foot, Qianmo was on tiptoe.

The cold wind is biting, and the distance between each other is getting farther and farther!

"Let's go, go back to the Purple Lion Country!"

The crescent moon hung a black curtain, the palace door was closed, Li Zhi took a deep look at the palace, and regardless of how late it was, he ordered loudly.

He knew that Li Tang would send troops to the Purple Lion Country, so he had to rush back to Heavenly Fire City to clarify the matter.
