Chapter 1219: King, Why Did You Betray the Country
After successfully contacting Li Xiaogong's fleet, the envoy of the King of True Wax officially handed over a letter of state inviting Li Xiaogong to True Wax.
For the invitation of King Varman I of True Wax, Li Xiaogong naturally readily agreed, and only three days later, Li Xiaogong's team appeared in front of the True Wax Royal City, the port is directly docked at the mouth of the Lancang River, and the Royal City of True Wax is not far from here.
When Li Xiaogong led 5,000 guards to arrive at the real wax royal city, the real wax held a grand welcome ceremony, not only the king of the real wax, but also all the ministers of the royal family and the real wax came out to greet them, and even all the people in the real wax royal city were called to gather in the square of the royal city to welcome Li Xiaogong.
The people of Li Xiaogong, the Tang Dynasty's clan, general, and county king Zhenwax, are also very curious, of course, they are also curious about Li Xiaogong, and they can't talk about good feelings.
After all, Datang has brought them more heavy labor, although the income of many people has increased a little, but the increased income is not proportional to the increased labor at all.
If it weren't for the king's request, they would never have been in this place.
"King Vamana I of True Wax welcomes the King of Jiangxia." Vamosa I smiled and made a welcoming ceremony.
"Your Excellency the King is gracious." Li Xiaogong smiled and said.
"Today, His Excellency General Shangguo has arrived in True Wax, and I would like to take this opportunity to announce one thing." Vaman I said with a smile.
With the words of Vaman I, there were naturally soldiers around him who carried his words to all sides of the city.
And the ministers standing around Vaman I did not react in particular, because on this occasion, it seemed normal for the king to say anything, and it was impossible for them to interrupt the king's words at this time, mainly because they had not communicated at all.
"Today I invited General Li to come to the real wax, is to ask General Li to make a testimony, and the second is also related to the next announcement, as the king of the real wax, I have always hoped that the people of the real wax can live a better life, these years of trade with the Tang Dynasty has improved the lives of the people of the real wax to a certain extent."
"But for a long time, I have found that I still have some problems with the management of real wax, and I am now old, I can't keep up with the times, compared with the Tang Dynasty of Shangguo, the living standards of the people of real wax are completely different from those of the people of Shangguo."
"So in order for the people of True Wax to live a better life, I am grateful for the ......choice of the khans of the Tang Dynasty, such as Xue Yantuo and Murowei," when Vaman I said this, the surrounding ministers finally reacted, how did this sound a little wrong?
But before they could speak, Vaman I said the next words: "Therefore, I decided to follow the example of the khans of Xue Yantuo, Murwei and other countries, give up the status of the king of real wax, and lead the entire real wax into the Tang Dynasty and become a part of the Tang Dynasty, so that the people of the real wax can become the people of the Tang Dynasty and live the same life as the people of the Tang Dynasty!" ”
"Please also ask the general of Shangguo to accept my request, this is my real wax letter." Vaman I directly took an official letter from Su Yeli next to him with both hands, and then he knelt directly on his knees and presented the letter in his hand with both hands.
The soldiers arranged around quickly spread the words of Vaman I in all directions, followed Vaman I, and Su Yeli and Bapo Kshatriya behind him also knelt down.
But the people around the ministers listened to it stupidly, isn't this what the hell is going on? This...... Why is it just to invite the generals of the Tang Dynasty to come to visit Zhenwax or entertain them? Why did it suddenly become real wax and want to belong to Datang?
Why have we never heard of anything like this?
Why did the king never communicate with us about such a big thing?
The faces of all the ministers changed, and at this moment they thought of countless things, and everyone's heads were confused.
There's no way, when you encounter such a thing, who are you leaving and who is not confused?
Your Majesty, why did you betray the country?!
We loyal courtiers haven't said much, why did you sell our country?
Of course, the ministers who were in a state of panic, fear, and shock couldn't react, and they all froze in place one by one.
Li Xiaogong said with a smile at this time: "I accept the annexation of your country on behalf of His Royal Highness King Qin, but I don't think the ministers seem to know?" You don't think you agree, do you? You don't have any objections, do you? ”
As soon as Li Xiaogong's words came out, all the ministers shivered excitedly, in the real wax they could even risk offending the king, but here, they definitely did not dare to offend Li Xiaogong.
This is not only because of the five thousand guards brought by Li Xiaogong, but also because only one thousand of these five thousand guards followed Li Xiaogong into the city.
The point is...... What if they take down Lee Hyo-gong? Do they dare to kill? This is Li Xiaogong, not Li Shimin.
The consequence of killing Li Xiaogong is that their whole family, no, their nine clans will disappear together, just like the more than 20 noble families of the queen country next door, the affairs of the queen kingdom have not been covered, so the news of the queen kingdom, which has frequent trade with real wax, naturally spread to real wax as soon as possible.
At this time, these ministers have everything in their hearts, and they have all scolded everything, of course, they are more scolding Varman I, scolding their own past, you simply don't treat us as people, is this country yours? You said that if you belong to Datang, you will belong to Datang?
And he didn't even discuss it with us, and he didn't even want to reveal it to us, so he just announced it.
But in any case, their reaction at this time was one, that is, they directly bent their legs, and then knelt down with the king.
"Of course not, so that General Li knows that we are just a little carried away by the fact that the real wax can be attached to the Tang Dynasty for a while, and we also ask the general to agree to the return of the real wax on behalf of His Royal Highness."
"Please also ask the general to agree." The ministers behind were all sensible, and almost all of them replied loudly in unison.
And at this time, the people who were not very far away around finally recovered from the shock and understood what was going on, our real wax is about to become Datang?
Are we going to become the people of the Tang Dynasty?
Unlike the people of the Queen's Kingdom, the people of True Wax communicate more closely with the people of Datang, of course they understand what kind of life the people of Datang live, and now they suddenly heard that they can live such a life.
Especially the generals of the Tang Dynasty are here, this matter can't be fake, don't you see that the king has knelt down with all the ministers?
