Chapter 31 Each has a plan, and he wants to slay the dragon on a rainy night
"It's just a matter of bowing, winning or losing."
"The prince was injured before, and my Tang Dynasty can afford to lose, but Tubo can't do it?"
Wu Zetian said very decently, did not lose half of his face, and did not answer whether to start a war against Tibet, both in and out of his words were hinting that the overall situation should be the most important and not to engage in a battle of words.
As for what is the overall situation, to destroy the country that is not subordinate, or to value peace?
Different people have different answers.
The Tibetan envoy felt that she had also beaten her own civil and military forces, which was impartial and had no intention of starting a war, so she continued to probe:
"It was the foreign minister's rudeness just now, and Tubo has always respected and admired the Tang Dynasty."
"But my country is bent on marrying a princess and marrying two families, what does the saint want?"
The envoys all knelt on the ground, staring at the attic, as if they were sincere to the extreme.
At the same time, Princess Taiping first looked up at Wu Zetian, and after getting a reassuring look, she then looked at Meng Fan, who was dressed in a strong suit.
There was still a hint of fear in his shy eyes, obviously frightened by the Tibetan savages.
These scenes naturally can't escape Wu Zetian's eyes, she was driven away by her brother and sister-in-law when she was a girl, indifferent, and when she was ordered to enter the palace at the age of fourteen, she said to her crying mother:
Seeing that the Son of Heaven is not blessed, what children are sad.
The reason why he said this was precisely because of his disgust with the Wu family's relatives and family life, and the misfortune and sorrow of her girlhood, Wu Zetian did not want her daughter to experience it again, and at the same time, her husband and emperor also favored this young daughter the most.
It is better to die 100,000 people in battle and start a national war in advance than to let them marry far away in a wild land.
In an instant, Wu Zetian thought a lot, stared at the Tubo delegation who was kneeling on the ground and didn't dare to raise his head, and said in a deep voice: "Taiping was conceived for my body, and she is reluctant to marry outside, not to mention that she has been a seeker since she was a child......
Hearing this, Tubo is a little annoyed, and it is this set of rhetoric again!
Cachumens?
Then it will be with the clay sculpture for a lifetime?
I saw it clearly before, and I undoubtedly belonged to my heart, and I looked down on them Tubo!
Ignoring the foreign missions, Wu Zetian continued:
"But my Tang Dynasty is a state of etiquette, and since the country is so sincere, it should be rewarded and given five sheep, ten catties of gold and silver."
Who can see this thing?
I think that when Princess Wencheng married far away, there were so many things to marry that it was dazzling, and she was just a clan daughter who temporarily sealed the title of princess......
Greed flourishes.
But the Tibetan envoy was not stupid, he wanted to go back and persuade Songtsan to continue the war against the Tang, just like his ancestors, persecution through aggression.
And now, the Tang Kingdom must not be alarmed, and they must continue to indulge in pleasure and feasting.
Thinking of this, when he heard Wu Zetian say this, he no longer fought for the benefit of his tongue, and hurriedly kowtowed and said:
"The sage is wise, may the Tang Dynasty and Tubo always be friends.
Watching the game is over.
An increasingly fierce scolding war also ended in a hurry, which was quite anticlimactic, but both sides had already calculated.
The palace people left first, and everyone shouted long live, and then under the guidance of the guards and eunuchs, they dispersed one after another. ….
Li Xian and Li Dan couldn't wait to run to Meng Fan's side, and a bowing competition pulled into the relationship between them, so with a snap, both hands slapped heavily on his shoulders.
"Cousin, you're really brave."
"What will you do in the future, call Shanglone together, and never shirk, by the way, how about the second brother's other house? If I like it, I will send a craftsman to repair it when I leave the palace and change it into a Taoist temple."

……
After eating a family banquet in the evening, out of the palace, it was drizzling in Chang'an, and the imperial capital, which had a hint of inflammation, became cool again.
Meng Fan didn't pinch the trick to avoid the water, but instead enjoyed the feeling of the rain passing by, and went straight to the Taishi Bureau.
After all, since the Imperial Meeting, he has really become Taishi Ling, in charge of the Tang calendar and other matters, so he can't leave silently.
Before you are ordered to slay the dragon, there are always some things that need to be explained so that nothing goes wrong.
Of course, with Lao Huang in charge, there have been no problems for so many years, and it is impossible for all kinds of moths to appear as soon as he takes office.
Unless he's a scourge......
In the open hall, Meng Fan drank tea and told him that he would kill the Huaishui Dragon God at night, as short as three days or as long as ten days, so that they didn't have to guess and discuss, and they would return after completing the will of the saint.
There are idle officials in the courtyard, burning incense and singing kites.
Winter, Winter ...... Ding, ding......
The sound of the piano and the sound of the rain melted into one, and Meng Fan, who had nothing to explain, listened carefully for a while, although he couldn't hear what the song was, he could just appreciate it.
Who doesn't love fishing?
Occasionally, busy, and after devoting yourself to the busy work, drink tea, talk about mysteries, and enjoy it in the red dust.
Meng Fan felt that the rhythm of life in ancient times was actually quite suitable for him, and he had only been here for a few days, and he had only been in Chang'an for a few days, not only adapting to life, but also establishing new relationships.
"By the way, there is an ice mantis in Hongze Lake, and if you want to rely on humanity to earn merits, Lao Huang, you can arrange it, and the grade should not exceed the local county order."
"Why?"
Lao Huang sniffed the fragrance of tea and responded leisurely.
It's a trifle.
The Taishi Bureau is already responsible for this kind of matter, and there is no need to put it in the political hall for discussion, and he will say it to other relevant officials, and do it according to the rules, and then there will be another person to read it out.
On the contrary, the killing of the Huaishui Dragon God sounds really incredible, and the new chief officer is not as kind as he seems.
"The human heart is not enough for a snake to swallow an elephant."
"The dragon god is greedy and excessive...... I have taken the road to death, alas, if I live and protect one side, firmly adhere to humanity, and rely on merit and luck, after two or three hundred years, not to mention that I can fade away from the Jiao body, at least I can fly to the upper realm before the Heavenly Gate disappears."
Lao Huang was full of emotion in his heart, followed Meng Fan's gaze, raised his eyes slightly, and watched the rain drip down from the tiles in a line, and finally converge into the yang ditch below, making a light sound, like the accompaniment of the sound of the piano in the courtyard.
"When does Tai Shiling plan to leave?"
"After drinking this cup of tea, go straight to the clouds."
"Good ability, that Taishi Ling didn't have such a superior method of ascension in the past, and finally had no choice but to dissect the corpse and become an immortal."
Li Chunfeng?
It is indeed a strange generation.
During the Zhenguan period, Feng Zhao and Yuan Tiangang, a scholar, calculated the fortunes of the Tang Dynasty.
Sixty images, corresponding to sixty proverbs and poems, the last hexagram reads:
One yin and one yang, no beginning and no end.
The end is the end, and the beginning is the beginning.
According to Meng Fan's understanding, the two agreed that the world will eventually move towards a world of great harmony where people do not distinguish between black and white, land and north and south, no city and no government, no self, the world is one family, and all religions are one.
