Chapter 247: Another Kind of Harmony
The envoys who came from afar, as long as the things mentioned are not excessive, the court generally has to agree, which also shows the mind of my Heavenly Empire, but this matter is not good, Li Shimin has already said that he is not in harmony, and you still have to work hard in this matter, that is your fault.
Songtsen Gampo's letter was also sincere, and he wanted to marry Qin and Jin with the Tang Dynasty, and Li Shimin didn't know how to answer for a while.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, we Zampu have a pious heart, we just want to be friendly neighbors with the Tang Dynasty, and we also want to maintain eternal friendship with the Tang Dynasty, and I hope that His Majesty the Emperor can agree."
Lu Dongzan has never said it before, he still has a letter from Songtsan Gampo in his hand, and now he has taken it out, which is clearly forcing us to express his position, if we want to say no, then there will be a contradiction between the two countries, but if you want to say yes, it is equivalent to letting the emperor slap in the face.
Li Shimin glanced at the ministers below, no one knew how to solve this matter, the main thing was that everyone did not dare to take this responsibility, once this matter caused disputes between the two countries, who would be responsible at that time? When they discussed it before, no one said that he still had a handwritten letter from Songtsen Gampo in his hand.
"Father Qi, the son thinks that this matter was proposed by the king of Chengping County, why not let him come out and explain it to the prime minister of Tubo?"
Just when everyone didn't know how to deal with it, Li Tai stood up, and Li Shimin also knew that Li Tai had no ability to deal with this matter, but what he said was still very right, this matter itself was proposed by Li Xiang, and now that you are implementing your strategy, you can't stand behind everyone, right?
"Qingque is right, Xiang'er, you come to give..."
Li Shimin has been wanting to rectify Li Xiang recently, but the whole thing is that he is the most hurt, and now he finally found an opportunity, of course, he wants to pull Li Xiang out, the bold words you said at the beginning, and now the problem in front of you will be handed over to you.
Li Xiang was in a state of fugue too empty, and he always felt that some things in the court were resolved, but I didn't expect you two to kick the ball directly to me, Lu Dongzan didn't object when he heard this, he also wanted to see if Li Xiang was as rumored.
Li Xiang looked at the civil and military people of the Manchu Dynasty and looked at himself, Since you have handed over this matter to me, how to solve it later, it is up to us, anyway, there is a high top in the sky.
"Prime Minister, this king doesn't need to introduce himself, we have seen it in the ten miles outside the city before, about never getting along, that is the national policy set by my Tang Emperor, no one is an exception, we are very considerate of the mood of Tubo and my Tang Dynasty, there is another idea here, I don't know if you see it, if you nod, then our two countries can also get married."
For ancient people, such a problem may be difficult to solve, but for Li Xiang, a modern person, he has seen so much knowledge on the Internet, if this little thing can't be solved, then I'm really sorry to save money to go to the Internet café when I was in school.
"Please give advice to Your Highness, and listen to your ears in the next place."
Lu Dongzan couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in Li Xiang's gourd, but from Li Xiang's flickering eyes, he could know that this must be a trick, but in front of so many people in the Tang Dynasty, he couldn't help but let Li Xiang speak, not to mention that this was also proposed by the Tang Emperor.
"This king heard that there are 17 princesses in Tubo, four of which are married, and three princesses are not yet adults, so there are still ten princesses to be in the boudoir, if you want to form a good alliance with our country, it is actually very easy, my country is not willing to marry a princess, you Tubo country does not have this article, you can marry the princess of Tubo to Chang'an City, we can also get married."
After Li Xiang's words were finished, many people present almost laughed out loud, your kid is really a talent, none of his daughters go out, and they have to send all the princesses.
After Li Shimin heard this, he didn't know what to say, you kid really has ideas better than other people, why didn't we think of this? Since Songtsan Gampo wants to marry Datang so much, you can send your sister and daughter over, there are many royal children of the Tang Dynasty, and they can definitely arrange it for you.
"This ......"
Lu Dongzan didn't know what to say for a while, if he wanted to say no, wouldn't it mean that what Songtsen Gampo's handwritten letter said was false? But if it is said that it is okay, this is against the policy formulated by their Tubo State before, and Lu Dongzan does not have so much power to modify it, the marriage of the princess is a big deal for any country, even if he is the prime minister of Tubo State, he is not qualified to decide this matter privately, let alone marry to the distant Tang Dynasty.
"The prime minister doesn't need to worry, there are hundreds of children of my Tang royal family, and there are twenty or thirty people who have not yet married, if the prime minister feels that he is not worthy, he can also only look for it among the princes and grandchildren, and there should be no problem with more than a dozen people......"
Li Xiang looked like he was underbeaten, but what he said finally made Wei Chi Jingde next to him can't help it, your shameless appearance is really awesome, if we are Lu Dongzan, this moment of kung fu can make you vomit blood angrily.
"Your Royal Highness, this matter cannot be the master of the matter, my country has the sincerity to marry Datang......"
Lu Dongzan wanted to explain, and then go back to the previous matter of asking to marry the princess, but how could Li Xiang let him go back?
"What the Prime Minister said is, even if your prince is here, I'm afraid he can't decide this matter, it's better for us to put this matter on hold for the time being, Datang will not send any princess to a foreign country, this is the iron law we have just set, anyone who dares to have any ideas in this matter, it is a crime of bullying the king, it is better to wait for the Prime Minister to go back, let's send someone to deal with this matter, don't talk about it for the time being, the princess of your country does not want to come to the Tang Dynasty, which is thousands of miles away, Our princess is also reluctant to go to Tibet, which is thousands of miles away. ”
When Li Xiang's words came to the back, there was no longer the smile in his eyes, and what turned out was a serious face, and at the same time, he announced to all the people in the court that no one could move this mind from now on, otherwise it would be the crime of bullying the king, and the crime of bullying the king would be punished by the nine clans......
