Chapter 514: Negotiation
Being reprimanded a little embarrassed by Princess Honghua, Lee Qinjae couldn't help but start reflecting on himself.
Yes, it's indeed a bit too much to always catch the Tugu muddy wool, isn't this pinching soft persimmons?
But then again,...... Soft persimmons are delicious.
"Your Highness forgives the sin, everything is a misunderstanding, the main thing is that Tuyuhun is close......" Li Qinzai sincerely defended.
Princess Honghua was about to explode: "If you are close, you deserve to be robbed?" ”
Li Qinzai didn't squeak, no matter in terms of geographical location or human cost, the proximity really deserves to be robbed, this should be the consensus of the simple and kind people for thousands of years, right?
Rabbits don't eat the grass next to the nest, the problem is that the masses of people are not rabbits.
"His Royal Highness just came to Liangzhou, and he invited him to the Assassin's Mansion to rest, and the lower officials held a banquet for Her Royal Highness the princess to wash the dust."
Princess Honghua snorted, walked inside, and muttered dissatisfiedly: "...... I haven't returned to Chang'an for more than 20 years, why have the children of Chang'an become like this? ”
Li Qinzai followed behind her and hurriedly whitewashed the bastards in Chang'an: "Your Highness, only the minister has become like this. ”
"Shut up!"
…………
Princess Honghua and Nuo Hao Bo Khan have been married for more than 20 years, and strictly speaking, her position has been on the side of Tuyuhun.
That's why the Khan of Nohobo sent her as an envoy today.
Therefore, as soon as Princess Honghua met today, she accused Li Qinzai of robbing Tuyuhun, and when Tuyuhun robbed the border people of the Tang Dynasty in previous years, she did not hear her condemn her husband.
It is understandable that the daughter who has been married, of course, will only speak from the position of her in-laws, if the husband and wife still stand in the position of the Tang Dynasty for more than 20 years, Her Royal Highness the princess will probably not live to this age.
entered the Assassin's Mansion, Princess Honghua sat in the first place, Li Qin was accompanied by him, and Pei Shen was second.
Pei Shen's face is still a little discouraged, the burning of the official warehouse has a great impact on his career, Kuaima has returned to Beijing to report, and the punishment of the imperial court has not yet come down, whether this assassin can continue to do it, it depends on whether his eight characters are coincidental.
The border city is barren, there is no singing and dancing entertainment at the banquet of the Assassin's Mansion, and the wine and food are quite simple.
Princess Honghua was used to barbecue meat in Tuguhun, and she didn't mind, and she started eating and drinking when the wine and food were served, and her every move was full of heroism.
Among the princesses of the Tang Dynasty, this one is on the road of opening and closing.
Li Qinzai got up and toasted a glass of wine, Princess Honghua held the barbecue in one hand and the wine cup in the other, laughed heroically twice, and took a sip.
Li Qinzai had an illusion in a trance, feeling that he had come to the Liangshan Heroes Gathering Hall, and the person in front of him was not the princess of Honghua, but the elder brother of Honghua.
In addition, Tuyuhun robbed the Tang Dynasty, Li Qinzai also robbed Tuyuhun, everyone has done businessless business, and the name of the Juyi Hall is well deserved.
So, Tubo is Fang La? Now it's time to talk about the levy?
"The Son of Heaven sent Er, since he arrived in Liangzhou, why didn't he go to Tuyuhun for mediation?" Princess Honghua asked straight to the point.
"On the way to Liangzhou, Xiaguan occasionally felt the wind and cold, and it was unbearable to trek......" Li Qinzai stroked his forehead with one hand, and raised his orchid finger with the other, posing in a weak and windy posture.
Princess Honghua squinted her eyes and sneered: "That wine just now was drunk boldly, and I didn't see the occasional wind chill at all." ”
“…… Back to light. ”
"Okay, let's be straight, why the hell is it delaying?"
Li Qinzai sighed: "Your Royal Highness Princess, the time has not yet come for the officials to send an envoy. ”
"What are you waiting for?" Princess Honghua was a little angry: "Most of Tuyuhun has fallen into the hands of Tubo, and if it is delayed for a few days, it will be destroyed. ”
"If Tuyuhun is in the hands of Tubo, what is the benefit of Datang?"
Li Qinzai said in a deep voice: "Presumably His Highness knows that this year, there is a drought in the north of the Tang Dynasty, the grain harvest is poor, and the Wang Shi has no food to support, and he can't withstand a big war. ”
Princess Honghua froze for a moment, and her face suddenly turned red.
Tuyuhun was not a grain-producing place in the first place, but now that two-thirds of the country has fallen, it is very difficult to support the country's army, where can there be excess grain and grass for the Tang army?
Seeing that Princess Honghua was speechless for a while, Li Qinzai cast a sympathetic look at him.
Everyone is a poor friend, you don't have something, why do you think I have it?
Well? There seems to be some ambiguity......
After a while, Princess Honghua said again: "But you should at least go to Tuguhun to mediate, the Son of Heaven is Ren Er, do you deal with errands like this?" ”
Li Qinzai frowned: "Your Highness is teaching me to do things?" ”
Princess Honghua was stunned for a moment, and then shot the case: "Bold! How dare you be so rude to this palace! ”
Li Qinzai said-for-tat: "Your Highness is now an envoy of Tuyuhun, and I am an envoy of the Tang Dynasty, did I say something wrong?" ”
"This palace is the princess of the Tang Dynasty!"
"You are the wife of the Khan of Nohoba!"
Princess Honghua sat down heavily, and tears suddenly fell in her eyes: "More than 20 years ago, when Emperor Taizong sent me to kiss, he personally said that I will always be the princess of the Tang Dynasty and his daughter. ”
Li Qinzai's tone eased, and he said in a low voice: "Since she is the princess of the Tang Dynasty, can Your Highness look at this matter from the standpoint of the Tang Dynasty?" Whether the war between the two countries can be mediated and when it will be mediated, the Son of Heaven has his own arrangements, and everything the lower officials do must be in the interests of the Tang Dynasty. ”
"What about Tuyuhun?"
Li Qinzai smiled: "What can Tuyuhun give Datang?" ”
"Isn't it enough to guard the northwest for the Tang Dynasty and contain Tibet?"
Li Qinzai said leisurely: "These can be done by Datang himself." ”
Princess Honghua was taken aback and stood up again.
This sentence is very informative, and the implicit meaning is that Datang can take Tuyuhun over and divide it as its own land.
"You, you...... Is this what you mean, or is that the meaning of the Son of Heaven? Princess Honghua wondered.
"Haha, don't be surprised, Your Highness, what the lower official means is that Datang needs to get benefits, and there is no reason to help countries for no reason."
Princess Honghua narrowed her eyes and said coldly, "What do you want?" ”
"I want a reason for a division to be famous, and the reputation that Datang should have."
"Tuyuhun has always recognized the Tang Dynasty as the suzerain, this title is not enough?"
Li Qinzai was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "If the Tang Dynasty takes Tuyuhun as the fief of the Nuo Hao Bowl Khan, the successive khans must accept the canonization of the Tang Dynasty, I wonder if His Royal Highness can accept it?" ”
Princess Honghua smacked it, and then became furious: "So you have this idea!" ”
Turned into a fief, and the nature of the two is completely different from that of a vassal state.
The vassal state has autonomy, has the name of the country, and has the monarch and minister, but the fief, to put it bluntly, is part of the land of the Tang Dynasty, and the fief of the vassal king must accept the canonization and rule of the Chang'an court, including the army, administration and taxation and other powers, all of which must be handed over to Chang'an.
In a word, Datang wanted to swallow Tuyuhun in one gulp.
