Chapter 441: The envoys of the nine countries leave
Chapter 441: The envoys of the nine countries leave
The distant war did not affect the tranquility of Chang'an at all, and most of the courtiers were ready to meet the good news with a stable attitude, but they did not return for a long time.
But the course of history continues, and at the same time as this happens, something new happens!
History will be intermittent and lacking a lot, but the future will never be absent!
"Xuan Xueyue Imperial Kingdom, the High Priest is here!"
This is the second time that a court meeting has been held in the past few days, and it is still dedicated to dealing with Zhao Yun's private affairs, so there are not many court officials present, only a dozen important ministers.
Institutions like the Bloody Guard, the Red Flame Guard, and the Heavenly Supervisor didn't send anyone here.
"High Priest of the Snow Moon Imperial Kingdom, I've seen Lord Tang Hou!"
The high priest walked into the hall of the council, bowed to Li Tang and said, and nodded slightly to Yuhuatian and the Emperor of Heaven.
It's just that whether it is the Emperor of Abandonment Heaven or Yuhuatian, they don't pay attention to it.
"Get up, please!"
Li Tang said majestically, yesterday in the sky over Chang'an, the aura that erupted, although he lived in the palace, he also clearly sensed it, and then, in a short period of time, he received the information of the blood clothes guard, which recorded Zhao Yun and Wu Xiuting in detail.
That night, Zhao Yun entered the palace alone and talked for more than an hour before today's court meeting.
"Lord Waiting, Ming people don't say dark words, my apprentice Wu Xiuting, a dignified holy priest, Zhao Yun who likes your country, as an important person in my country, wants me to marry my apprentice, shouldn't your country express it?"
The high priest said with a smile, for now, the power of the Tang Kingdom has jumped above the top ten imperial states, if Wu Xiuting can be used to repair the relationship between the two countries, and even make the two countries form an alliance, it would be great!
"Naturally, it should be said, but the Snow Moon Imperial Kingdom is the overlord of the continent, and what it needs, I'm afraid it will be difficult for this king to do!"
Li Tang said with a smile, he had already made up his mind in his heart, if the conditions of the high priest were not difficult and did not violate the development of the Tang Kingdom, he would agree to the conditions and let Zhao Yunzheng be bright and shade his wife's room.
If the conditions are not suitable, he will take it by force, and with the strength of the Snow Moon Imperial Kingdom, he can only break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.
"Lord Tang Hou, the condition of our country is that the two countries form an alliance, sign a permanent national deed, and the royal families of the two countries help each other and unite with the outside world. ”
The high priest said, looking ambitious, and a pair of eyes stared at Li Tang, expecting his answer.
After hearing this, some political visionaries and far-sighted people smiled disdainfully, not to mention the strength of the two countries, whether there is a need for an alliance!
Let's just talk about the current situation, the invasion of the demon race is imminent, and all the races in the Eastern Continent are in danger, thinking about how to deal with the catastrophe, and launching a unified war at this time, it is an idiot.
Not to mention whether it can succeed or not, even if it is successful, the strength of the Eastern Continent is exhausted, and it is not capable of resisting foreign invaders at all, and for such a long time, who can guarantee that the demon clan will not launch a war of aggression.
Until then, the alliance will be just a joke!
After Li Tang listened, he didn't speak, his fingers tapped on the armrest, and he was very rhythmic.
"High Priest, our country is close to the Endless Forest, and you dare to form an alliance, aren't you afraid of falling into it and not being able to extricate yourself?"
Fan Li consciously stood up and asked loudly, secretly reminding the high priest that the biggest enemy at present was the demon clan huddled in the shadows, not the Tang Kingdom.
At the same time, it also shows that in the face of the demons of the endless forest, the Tang Kingdom is also difficult to protect itself.
"This ......"
After hearing this, the high priest frowned slightly, closed his eyes, and kept pinching his fingers with his left hand, which was covered by his sleeves, and his ruddy face quickly turned pale without the slightest blood.
Seeing this, Fan Li knew that the high priest was calculating, so he retreated to the court and watched quietly, without disturbing.
After a few minutes, the high priest opened his eyes, his gaze full of complexity, and his zeal for the alliance disappeared for the most part.
Because he found that the future of the Tang Kingdom was full of disasters and ups and downs, and a few years later, there was a big disaster, full of unknowns, and he wanted to further calculate, but was stopped by the catastrophe.
"Now, is the High Priest still going to form an alliance?"
On the imperial chair, Li Tang asked, his fingers stopped beating, and the future of the Tang Kingdom, the Empress Wu had also reported, and after considering the impact, he did not announce it, so as not to make people panic.
"No...... No more!"
The high priest's face showed a stiff smile, and his heart was full of faint sadness.
Originally, the whole country attached great importance to forming an alliance with the Tang Kingdom, believing that it was an important opportunity for the development of the imperial state, but now after calculation, it is a big disappointment.
The Tang Kingdom is a hot potato!
"Oh, why did the high priest suddenly change his mind? Could it be that what he said just now was playing tricks on the king?"
Li Tang's face turned cold, and he said angrily, the majestic imperial power enveloped the high priest, making a trace of fear appear in the latter's heart.
Of course, this fear is not because of Emperor Wei, but because he is worried that Li Tang will order the Emperor to abandon the heavens.
"The Lord has misunderstood! We are still talking about marriage, and in my opinion, let me live in the Tang Kingdom as a disciple to promote the relationship between the two countries. ”
The high priest hurriedly said, changed the topic, and promised benefits, wanting to eliminate the dissatisfaction in Li Tang's heart.
According to the custom, before getting married, the bride should live in her mother's home, and after the man sends the dowry to the woman's house, she chooses an auspicious day and feasts the guests to complete the wedding process under the witness of the elders of both parties.
And now, the high priest disregarded the rules and directly let Wu Xiuting live in the Tang Kingdom before the wedding, which shows how scared he is in his heart.
"Oh, in that case, then the king will agree to this marriage on behalf of Zilong, but don't worry, when they get married, this king will also give a national gift. ”
When Li Tang heard this, he said with a smile, and the anger on his face disappeared in an instant.
"Then thank you Tang Hou. ”
The high priest also smiled and said insincerely.
"Haha!"
Li Tang stood up, laughed, and walked to the apse to end this court meeting, which may be the easiest and earliest court meeting for the founding of the Tang Dynasty!
"Congratulations to the Lord!"
The officials of the court bowed respectfully and said, and when Li Tang disappeared, he gathered around Zhao Yun and said loudly:
"General Martial God, it seems that soon, I will ask you to drink a glass of wine, don't be stingy when the time comes, and be reluctant to treasure the wine!"
"No, when the time comes, you will rest when you get drunk!"
"Don't, if you're drunk, the bride won't let you!"
"What nonsense! Xiuting is very virtuous, not like you say. ”
"When the time comes, Benxiang will also drink two cups!"
"Wei Xiang wants to drink, and he must accompany him when he goes. ”
“............”
A group of bigwigs who stomped lightly and Datang would tremble, at this moment, all revolved around Zhao Yun and joked, and the bold laughter spread far away.
"Humph!"
A few feet away, the high priest was like an outsider, snorted coldly, threw his sleeves away, and walked in a hurry, full of anger.
In the afternoon of the same day, the Nine Kingdoms were special, and after signing various agreements, they took the redeemed ancestors and took the spirit boat to return to their own country, turning into a streamer and disappearing.
