Unlike the first time Shen Lian saw them, the first time Shen Lian saw them, they were all whispering, as if they were intimate with each other.

But this time, they sat quietly in their seats, no one talked to each other, but they were still very vigilant with each other, and they all maintained a certain social distance.

When Shen Lian saw this scene, the light in his eyes flashed.

"You're all here? I encountered some official business on the way, and I delayed some time, I hope you will forgive me! ”

Shen Lian stepped into the hall and said with a smile.

The prince of Tubo snorted and said, "You Tang really look down on me, such an important matter, dare to be late-"

Before he could finish speaking, he was suddenly interrupted by some laughter.

"Hey, it's okay, we've just arrived!"

"If it's not in the way, Commander Shen wears many hats, and his official duties are important."

"We understand!"

"That's right, Commander Shen don't think much about it."

Some envoys immediately spoke to Shen Lian.

This made the Tubo prince, who had just spoken, stunned for a moment.

What's going on!?

Why are there so many envoys to help Shen Lian speak?

What happened?

Aren't they afraid of me in Tibet?

You dare to interrupt me so much that you don't give me face?

Why!!!

Why the hell is that!!

Who gave them the courage, who gave them the courage not to be afraid of the Tibetan Iron Cavalry Army!!

Hela's face suddenly became ugly, and she couldn't understand why these people were so faceless.

But as soon as he saw that the envoys of five or six countries had spoken, he pursed his lips and fell gloomy again.

If only one country's envoy is not interested, he can still teach him a lesson.

But five or six countries, even though they are all small countries, are still a big force when they come together.

Now that the Council of All Nations has been convened, if the Turks in the parliament want to get any benefits, they also need the support of some envoys, and he is not stupid enough to offend five or six people who have the right to speak at the same time.

So he just glared at Shen Lian gloomily and shut up.

Shen Lian looked at Hela's ugly face and laughed lightly.

He bowed his hand slightly to the envoys who had spoken for him, nodded and smiled, and continued to walk forward.

Li Xiangyin looked at these envoys curiously, and only felt that his mentor was so popular among these envoys!

But Ah Bao knew that Li Xiangyin thought too much.

For example, when the first day I saw these envoys, these envoys were all looking for trouble, and there were people who were polite to them.

Someone will help the adults today, purely because of the calculations of the adults in the past few days.

It seems that adults dig the foot of the wall and send warmth to the effect.

No, they all have loyal little brothers!

This made Ah Leopard uncontrollable, who would have thought that the envoys of these countries, whose eyes were shining when they saw adults now, were still hostile to adults two or three days ago?

My lord, he's still a cow!

Ah Leopard sighed with emotion in his heart.

And the other envoys who saw this scene were also full of surprise.

Anthony, the envoy of the Great Food Country, widened his eyes in disbelief.

When did Shen Lian have such a good relationship with these envoys?

The eldest prince of Tiele, Aguta, also squinted.

Nanzhao's envoy Wang Chengdao frowned even more.

At this moment, these people suddenly had a feeling.

It seems that certain changes, before they were aware of it, had already taken place.

Today's Council of All Nations, for the first time, they feel that they have no bottom in their hearts.

And all this is because of the young man in front of him.

His name is Shen Lian!

Known as the first smart person in Datang, Shen Lian, the young generation of Datang bearers.

Shen Lian didn't care about other people's eyes, let alone what other people thought.

Even if they realized that they were digging a corner in their alliance, there was no point in it.

After all, the Council of All Nations has begun.

Next, they weren't given a chance to deal with these things.

Not to mention, the so-called alliance they once had existed in name only!

Therefore, there is no one who will help them to fight against the enemy.

Therefore....... In the next Wanbang Council, who those interests belong to, it is really not necessarily.

He smiled and walked straight to the main seat.

Then he looked at the people below, raised his hand with a smile, and said, "Come on, serve tea to the envoys." ”

A group of waiters quickly entered the hall and placed a pot of hot tea on each table, along with some pastries.

It's not the time for a final decision, so the atmosphere isn't as serious.

Shen Lian picked up the teapot, poured himself a cup of hot tea, picked up the teacup, shook it gently, then took a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "This is my famous Longjing in the Tang Dynasty, the annual output is not much, and it cannot be bought outside, and it is only provided to the royal family." ”

"Today, the official is specially asking His Majesty for you, you may wish to have a drink and feel the uniqueness of my Datang tea."

Some of the envoys heard this and dismissed it.

I'm about to start tearing my face with real knives and guns, what kind of tea to drink.

Some of the envoys were lazy and ignored them.

And some envoys picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and then couldn't help but praise the tea leaves of the Tang Dynasty.

Shen Lian looked at the reactions of the envoys calmly, and said lightly: "Xiangyin, do you know why the teacher invited them to tea?" ”

Li Xiangyin thought for a while and said: "Express the kindness of my Datang host, so that they can't find fault with our hospitality, and at the same time, we can know their attitude towards me according to their reactions." ”

"Clever."

Shen Lian was very satisfied.

He said: "A cup of tea can't buy a person, let alone these people in high positions, but a cup of tea can see a lot of things." ”

"Some people don't give a damn and don't even look at the tea, which means that it will be ....... They will definitely work against my Datang, this kind of person, once they have the opportunity to die, they are absolutely right. ”

"Some people are lazy and ignore them, which shows that they have no goodwill or malice towards my Datang, and they belong to the middle faction, and when necessary, they can try to win them over."

"And those who praise the tea."

Shen Lian smiled: "It's purely to compliment us, in fact, this tea is the most ordinary, the kind of tea that can be bought for eight taels for ten cents, it definitely doesn't taste good, it's not a dragon well at all, and the official won't use that good thing to entertain these people who may have malicious intentions towards us." ”

"Therefore, what they praise is not tea, but us, which also shows that they are biased towards us, at least for now, and we can cooperate with them later."

Shen Lian smiled meaningfully: "This is the same as Zhao Gao at the end of Qin and Zhao Gao pointing to the deer as a horse, it doesn't matter whether it is a horse or not, what matters is the attitude and attitude of other people....... Decide everything. ”

Li Xiangyin nodded seriously, his face full of thought.

Ah Leopard was surprised.

Just such an ordinary cup of tea, there are so many things in it?

Ah Li is between Ah Bao and Li Xiangyin, he knows more than Ah Leopard, but he doesn't think as much as Li Xiangyin, so at this moment, he has gained the most.

Shen Lian didn't care how much Li Xiangyin and the three of them gained, he took advantage of his free time to dial them, and the rest was up to their own thinking.

He looked at the envoys again, took the performances of these envoys into his eyes one by one, and remembered them in his heart, then put down the teacup with a smile and said, "In order to wait for all the envoys to arrive, so in order not to delay everyone too much, this official has decided to open the Council of All Nations today. ”

"So, I won't say much about the superfluous words, and now the official announces that the Council of All Nations has officially begun."

"According to the constitution of the Council of Nations, we want to establish a peaceful and stable situation, so that the war can stop, so that peace can come to the world, and there will be less strife and killing, and more peace and warmth.

After speaking, Shen Lian leaned back directly and said no more.

As if he was reluctant to intervene in the affairs of the Council of Nations.

And all the envoys were silent at this time.

They look at me, I look at you, and no one is the first to stand up and speak.

Everyone is reserved.

Shen Lian glanced at it and sneered in his heart.

They all covet my Datang and want to get benefits from Datang, but no one dares to stand up first, for fear of bearing Datang's anger.

Just like this, dare to covet Datang?

I really don't know who gave them the courage.

In this way, the atmosphere in the hall became a little awkward for a while.

No one spoke, no one spoke, making each other very awkward.

And Shen Lian was drinking tea slowly, no one was embarrassed to speak, but he was not in a hurry at all, anyway, anyone could be embarrassed, but he would definitely not be embarrassed.

Bang!

In this way, after the time when there was half a pillar of incense, the sound of slapping the table suddenly sounded, which directly broke the quiet atmosphere that made many envoys embarrassed.

When everyone looked at each other, they saw that the person who spoke was actually an envoy of Baekje.

This envoy's name is Park Jincheng, he has two mustaches, he is not tall, but his eyes are bright.

When he saw everyone looking at him, his expression remained unchanged.

"Since you don't open your mouth to propose, then I'll be the first to propose!"

Park Jingcheng opened his mouth and said: "I hope I can throw bricks and lead the way, and everyone will take the initiative to make suggestions in the future." ”

Baekje is not a strong country, but it is also okay and not particularly weak.

And because it is located on a peninsula, it is only adjacent to Silla and Goryeo, and the rest of the place is by the sea, so the border that needs to be garrisoned is not long, but it is stable enough.

Shen Lian said, "What do the Baekje envoys have to say? ”

Park Jincheng looked at Shen Lian and spoke directly: "In my opinion, if you want to establish a peaceful and stable situation, you need to have little difference in the strength of the countries, and only on this basis, check and balance each other, and balance each other's hearts, can peace and stability be guaranteed." ”

Park Jincheng paused, looked at Shen Lian and said: "It's better for Datang to take the initiative to divide some land, give us these small countries, and make our land area larger, in this way, we will definitely not covet Datang, and peace can be guaranteed." ”

Brush it up!

As soon as Park Jincheng's voice fell, everyone's eyes instantly fell on Shen Lian's body.

The prince of Tubo smiled playfully on his face, and Anthony, the envoy of the Great Food Country, also looked at Shen Lian with blazing eyes.

Nanzhao's envoy Wang Chengdao's eyes narrowed slightly, and he was also waiting for Shen Lian's reaction.

Some of the envoys were full of schadenfreude.

Some of the envoys were nervous.

They were all waiting for Shen Lian's reaction.

Because Shen Lian's next reaction was tantamount to showing Datang's attitude.

Datang is strong in the end, and no one is allowed to accuse.

Or can they really dig out a piece of meat from Datang.

Next, it's up to Shen Lian's response.

Ah Bao and Ah Li also looked at Shen Lian nervously at this time.

Li Xiangyin's brows furrowed, his face was full of disbelief, as if he never thought that an envoy of a country would say such an absurd thing and put forward such unreasonable conditions.

But when he saw the other envoys, none of them opened their mouths to rebuke them.

What does this mean?

Perhaps, they knew in advance that this man would say such a thing.

Perhaps, they are also fighting such an idea.

At this moment, in Li Xiangyin's heart, a wave of anger came up in a flash.

He couldn't help but look at his teacher.

He only felt that the teacher alone seemed to be standing in front of the wolf, tiger and cheetah, and the people in front of him were all staring at the teacher, as if the teacher would swallow the teacher as long as he nodded his head.

So what will ....... teacher do?

Li Xiangyin suddenly remembered what his teacher had said before.

"Don't forget how the land under our feet was obtained, not by giving charity to others, but by the blood of countless ancestors, so ......."

"Our descendants, we can't let our ancestors down."

Teacher, you will definitely not disappoint your ancestors!

He, convinced!

The entire post hall is terrifyingly quiet at this time!

Everyone held their breath and stared, all looking at Shen Lian, waiting for Shen Lian's answer.

Baekje envoy Park Jincheng looked at Shen Lian with a smile and continued: "Commander Shen, haven't you always boasted that you love peace? Now is the time to confirm your sincerity, I think, for the peace of the world, for the stability of the world, for the people of Li to not be devastated by the war, you Datang, should be willing to pay such a small price, right? ”

Ah Leopard's eyes were on fire.

He clenched the hilt of the knife tightly, and he really wanted to split Park Jincheng in half with a single sword.

Ali's eyes were red too.

Li Xiangyin and Zhao Hai, the temple secretary of Honglu Temple, were also full of indignation.

If eyes can kill, Park Jincheng has definitely been cut by a thousand knives.

It's just that none of them can open their mouths at this time, and no one can speak.

Because, Shen Lian is here.

Shen Lian is the representative of the Tang Dynasty, they can't speak casually, otherwise once a word is said wrongly, it will bring trouble to Shen Lian.

Therefore, no matter how angry they were in their hearts, they could only grit their teeth and wait for Shen Lian to respond.

"Huh."

At this moment, a gentle laugh suddenly came out of Shen Lian's mouth.

Shen Lian looked at Park Jincheng calmly, and the expression on his face, as before, didn't seem to have changed at all because of Park Jincheng's words.

He raised his eyes to look at Park Jincheng, still with a trademark smile on his face, and said: "I think your words are very reasonable, give other countries some territory, let them expand their land area, and they will not be envious and jealous of other countries, so that peace can be guaranteed, right?" ”
