Chapter 488: The Monarch of the Martial Arts Palace

"Next time I invite Your Majesty to Lishan for summer vacation, the prince must also come."

After Zhang Yang finished speaking, he walked into the palace, and the prince sighed in his heart that the status of the eunuchs in the palace was the lowest.

When he left the palace, he was even looked down upon outside.

At this moment, there are some different feelings in Zhang Yang's heart, and this feeling of being respected is very long-lasting.

Walking into the Wude Palace, he suddenly felt a burst of coldness.

Li Shimin was holding a book in his hand, and Zhang Yang saluted slightly, "Your Majesty, Tubo Zampu, Songtsan Gampo bring it." ”

Hearing this, Li Shimin nodded, "Zhang Yang, how do you solve this problem of life and death?" ”

"Your Majesty is asking what this is for?"

"When we look at this question, there is a deep meaning, sometimes we are faced with a choice, we don't know whether the decision is right or wrong, and we don't know what the decision will bring to us, and the person who gives the advice is like a guard in front of the door, and their words are right or wrong, which reminds me of the past."

The same choice was made in the face of Li Jiancheng back then, and there was also a huge risk in the decision to ambush Xuanwumen.

Once he fails, Li Shimin will face a different scene.

Zhang Yang subconsciously looked at Songtsan Gampo behind him, did His Majesty deliberately put on a deep appearance?

Even the tone is a few points higher.

If you want to say that the big countries around the Central Plains, the Turks have been beaten to the ground, and they will not be able to recover within ten years, and the only one who can wrestle with the Tang Dynasty is Tibet.

The land of Tibet is large, but the population is small, and now Songtsen Gampo has also been defeated.

As an opponent and a defeated general under Tian Khan, is His Majesty deliberately trying to show off?

"Can you solve it?"

Hearing His Majesty's question again, Zhang Yang said loudly: "The minister doesn't know how to solve this question, but when the teacher taught me, he said that there are many answers to this question, maybe the minister will be able to figure it out in a few days." ”

Li Shimin put down the scroll in his hand, "Okay, I'm waiting for that day." ”

Seeing the gaze of the Heavenly Khan, Songtsen Gampo saluted with the Tibetan etiquette, "Heavenly Khan! ”

Li Shimin bowed his head and said: "Songtsan Gampo, there was indeed a contradiction between Lu Dongzan and the Foreign Affairs Yuan at the beginning, but you shouldn't start a war. ”

Songtsen Gampo raised his head again, "As a member of the Tibetan mission and the hearts of many people, being a Zampu is not arbitrary. ”

He said that the cause of the war was involuntary.

Li Shimin stared at this person who was the same age as Zhang Yang, who was so young that he was the king of Tibet.

As long as such young people do not make mistakes, they will definitely have greater achievements in the future.

Li Shimin suddenly laughed.

It's a weird laugh.

"I have always adhered to the intention of coexisting and making good friends with other countries, and I hope that Tubo and Datang will always live in harmony in the future."

Standing aside, Zhang Yang's heart was helpless, it was not possible to get along in harmony, the Tianshan Mountains in the Western Regions and the Snow Mountains west of Tubo were good barriers for the Central Plains.

Taking this barrier is inevitable and the best barrier against the rising West.

Internally, there can be no more war in the west of the Central Plains, and externally, it can also resist the rising ancient Western countries.

This is the interest that will affect future generations for thousands of years, the mountain is there, it will never move, this is a unique condition given by God to the Central Plains.

It is the roof of the world and the most reliable barrier in the Central Plains.

Whatever you say, you have to put it in the map.

In the next conversation, Tian Khan and Songtsen Gampo asked for warmth.

Tian Khan said that it was not easy to pacify the Central Plains back then, and said that he was heroic in the northern expedition to the Turks.

And Songtsen Gampo spoke of his own admiration for the Central Plains.

It is a good thing that Tian Khan and Tubo Zampu had a good conversation.

He also talked about the current situation in the Great Food and Persia.

The Great Food has indeed been expanding, and the four most powerful Hari of the Great Food, that is, the meaning of the general, can be regarded as the successors of Muhammad, the leader of the Great Food.

The war continued into Europe, and now the Great Eclipse is at its peak.

In the original history, Datang did have a battle with Dashi.

And the outcome of that battle affected the Central Plains, and even more so the entire Eurasian continent.

It was also a turning point in world history.

I thought that if Datang hadn't stopped the expedition at that time, maybe Wang Xianzhi would have hit Europe.

But the more I listened to the conversation that followed, the more wrong it became.

Until His Majesty said that he wanted to be commensurate with the Songtsen Gampo brothers, Zhang Yang sighed.

The sigh was not loud, and it fell into His Majesty's ears very clearly in the quiet Taiji Hall.

The conversation stopped with this sigh.

Li Shimin slowly raised his head, "Why are you sighing." ”

Zhang Yang arched his hand and said: "I feel it, and I can't help it." ”

Songtsen Gampo frowned, and he didn't understand what was going on, but he saw Tian Khan staring at Zhang Shangshu and didn't say a word.

After a long time, he finally couldn't be silent anymore, Li Shimin sat down again, "Do you think my words are inappropriate?" ”

Zhang Yang smiled embarrassedly, "Your Majesty and Tubo Zanpu have such a pleasant conversation, the minister is very happy in his heart." ”

"I am not a person who cannot hear advice, it is my proposition to speak widely and accept advice, and it is also what I should do to listen to the opinions of my courtiers."

His Majesty is still composing......

"Then the minister just said it?"

"Say." Li Shimin's expression was calm, and he confidently drank a sip of tea.

Zhang Yang snorted and said: "I just don't understand how Your Majesty's problem of recognizing relatives came from." ”

A sip of tea was in his mouth, and Li Shimin didn't swallow it for a long time.

"Your Majesty can be brothers within or outside the four seas, but can you have a sense of boundaries?"

The tea in his mouth was finally swallowed, and Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "What kind of boundary?" ”

Zhang Yang arched his hand and said: "The Foreign Affairs Yuan deals with the diplomatic relations of the country, and some ministers have to say that the two countries are at war, and His Majesty can't control the younger brother if he wants to accept the younger brother, but the king is the king, and the minister is the minister, since Tubo wants to submit to the Tang Dynasty, then it should be the minister, not the elder brother and younger brother." ”

Li Shimin's original smile had long since disappeared, and it turned a little more blue-black.

Zhang Yang's words continued, "Besides, once this sense of boundary is gone, may I ask Your Majesty that you have been busy inside and outside the Foreign Affairs House for three years, does the meaning of these three years mean that Your Majesty has recognized a younger brother?" Could it be that after Zampu went back, he said everywhere that Tian Khan was his brother, so was it a minister? How will the Foreign Affairs Yuan handle this relationship in the future? ”

Li Shimin slowly put down the tea bowl in his hand.

"Your Majesty! There are so many relatives in the clan, and there are so many complicated clan relationships, hasn't Your Majesty had enough headaches? If you really want to recognize your relatives, simply let Tubo Zampu be your godson, it will be better, and the relationship between father and son is stronger than that between the monarch and the minister. ”

Xu Jingzong coughed violently, and coughed for a long time before stopping, "Your Majesty, it's rude in front of the courtiers." ”

Li Shimin finally swallowed the tea in his mouth, "When did I say that I didn't recognize the monarch and ministers?" ”

Zhang Yang said with emotion: "Your Majesty means that you want to be brothers with Zampu, and the minister thinks that this practice is inappropriate, since Tubo submits to the Tang Dynasty soldiers and horses to cross Tubo, does it depend on the face of Tian Khan's younger brother?" Isn't this a chaotic relationship between superiors and subordinates? ”

"Zhang Yang, you are presumptuous!" Li Shimin stood up, "You have opposed everything before, but I want to call Songtsen Gampo a brother in private." ”

"Your Majesty is the Khan of the Heavens, and he can't do it in private."

Seeing Zhang Shangshu's resolute attitude, Xu Jingzong wiped the sweat from his forehead, and was about to say something more, but when he saw His Majesty walking quickly, he had to swallow his words and lower his head.

Li Shimin laughed angrily, "You have said that the DPRK is going to go to Xue Yantuo without authorization, and I haven't bothered with you yet!" ”

Zhang Yang stood up straight, "Your Majesty doesn't say anything, I persuaded you several times not to attack Xue Yantuo recklessly." ”

"Attacking Xue Yantuo is a civil and military decision of the Manchu Dynasty, so why should you deny it?"

"The attack on Xue Yantuo is a resolution between His Majesty and Zhongshu Province, and this matter has not been discussed by the Taiji Palace, how can it be said that it is a civil and military decision of the Manchu Dynasty? Your Majesty is just announcing it in the main hall. ”

"You don't want to make a big fuss!"

"Your Majesty said that whoever is making a big fuss, I kindly advise, if the Khan can't listen to it, don't listen, what else is it like to pretend."

Li Shimin's brows jumped, and he shouted angrily: "Who are you talking about pretending!"

The voice was very loud, and the deep pretending to be before was completely broken at the moment.

The guards and eunuchs outside the hall were also frightened, and they looked into the hall one after another, and what had happened.

Zhang Yang was neither humble nor arrogant, "I said that Your Majesty pretended." ”

"You say that I don't have anything else, forget it, I have always adhered to the principle of accepting advice! I have been kind to my courtiers in the past few years, is it that I am too polite to you on weekdays! ”

"Your Majesty has not been polite to his ministers."

"You detain the Yinan Khan privately! I haven't cured you yet! ”

The Foreign Affairs Yuan privately detained a Khan? Or the Khan of Xue Yantuo?

Songtsen Gampo heard another terrible thing, he had long heard that this Yinan Khan had left Chang'an City since the sixth year of Zhenguan, and he had disappeared.

I thought I had died somewhere.

I didn't expect it to be in the hands of the Foreign Affairs Yuan.

"The sin of the rulers?" Zhang Yang looked at the emperor, "When His Majesty advocated letting the Yinan Khan go back, the Foreign Affairs Yuan opposed it, did Your Majesty think about the consequences of the matter at that time?" After you used Xue Yantuo, you turned your head and ignored him, and you had to suppress Xue Yantuo to turn your head to appease the Turks, you forgot that Xue Yantuo helped the Tang Dynasty to hold the Turks hostage. ”

"After using it, I lost it, and I didn't forget to pull Xue Yantuo's opponent, isn't Your Majesty a scumbag?"

Li Shimin didn't understand what a scumbag meant, and at first glance he knew that it was not a good word.

Zhang Yang's words continued, "Everything has to be ended by the Foreign Affairs Yuan to His Majesty, is it easy for us to go up and down?" If I hadn't detained people back then, where would I be able to make Your Majesty attack Xue Yantuo so justifiably now? ”

"I want to thank you?"

Li Shimin clenched his fists with both hands, "Don't think I won't dare to kill you!" ”

Zhang Yang snorted coldly: "Bailai Jin is here!" Your Majesty at will! ”

Seeing Xu Jingzong retreat in three or two steps, Songtsen Gampo also retreated, and he asked in a low voice: "Is it the same way that Datang usually handles political affairs?" ”

Xu Jingzong replied: "What does Zampu think? ”

Songtsen Gampo said: "I have always thought that the people of the Central Plains talk about etiquette, reason, treat people kindly, and have friends from afar......

Looking at the monarch and ministers who were arguing in front of him, Tian Khan's face was red, his forehead was so angry that his forehead was bruised, and even his neck was already red.

Seeing that a fight was about to start, Songtsen Gampo looked puzzled, "When the Tang courtiers encounter political disagreements and decide on major affairs in the DPRK and China, are they also quarreling with red faces like this?" ”

The quarrel between His Majesty and Zhang Shangshu continued.

Xu Jingzong was worried, "Occasionally, it's usually fine. ”

"I see." Songtsen Gampo felt more and more pleasing to the eye when he saw the quarrel in front of him, and he gained insight again, "Datang and Tian Khan are very special." ”

Seeing Li Shimin pointing to himself and talking about the expedition to Xue Yantuo.

Zhang Yang took a step forward, "Xingshi mobilized the people to send troops to attack Xue Yantuo, how many soldiers and horses has Your Majesty prepared, 50,000, 60,000?" Or an army of 100,000? Does Your Majesty know how far it is to cross the Turkic steppe from Yin Mountain and attack Xue Yantuo all the way? ”

"This kind of thing has its own Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Books will arrange it, so you don't have to bother the Ministry of Etiquette."

"Hahaha......"

Hearing the laughter, Li Shimin's eyes widened angrily, and his eyes were bloodshot, "Are you laughing at me? ”

"How can Tian Khan not make people laugh like this?" Zhang Yang looked to the north, "I'm going to attack Xue Yantuo, does Your Majesty know where Xue Yantuo's important resources are?" Do you know how to take advantage of it? And does Your Majesty know how to end up after the fight? ”

Li Shimin was silent, he couldn't listen to anything at the moment, and now he wanted to hang this kid in front of Chengtianmen.

"Xue Yantuo has huge mineral resources, these minerals can bring many benefits to the Central Plains, and you have to be careful of the wind and sand in Mobei when you go on an expedition, it is the wind season now, has Your Majesty thought about these things?"

"Your Majesty, now the Foreign Affairs Yuan is compiling geography, which will tell about the terroir and geography and customs of the Central Plains and even outside the Guan, which is the most precious, and now there are some records compiled into a book, presided over by His Royal Highness the King of Wei, and compiled by Zhang Dasu and others."

"It is also necessary to compare the many observations and classics outside the border, if Your Majesty has time, you can take it to see more, analyze and analyze more, it is also useful, you can be an emperor without knowledge, but you can't be an emperor without culture!"

"I don't read any less books than you do!"

"The teacher taught me to be humble, and Your Majesty should also be humble, and don't feel that I have read a lot."

The guards didn't know when they were already standing in front of the palace, as long as His Majesty gave an order at this time, they would rush forward and take down Zhang Shangshu.

The emperor and Zhang Yang quarreled in the Wude Palace, and the prince knew the stakes, and the news soon reached the queen's ears.

Empress Changsun sat in the Lizheng Hall and just put the little son to sleep, and the children developed the habit of napping in Lishan, and now they have to sleep for a while in the afternoon.

Listening to the palace maid's report, Empress Eldest Sun said in a low voice: "What's the quarrel?" ”

The palace maid bowed down and replied, "The guards in front of the palace are ready, as long as Your Majesty gives an order at this time, the guards in front of the palace will take down Zhang Shangshu." ”

At the beginning, Wei Zheng pointed at His Majesty's nose and scolded, but His Majesty endured it and did not quarrel with him.

The first is that Wei Zheng is old, and the second is that His Majesty needs these admonitions to arrange the court.

"Songtsen Gampo is also there?"

"Yes."

is still quarreling in front of the king of Tibet, if this is spread out, the face of the Heavenly Khan will probably not be able to hang up.
