Datang: Salted fish at the beginning, Gao Yang was given marriage by Li Er

Chapter 396 This Bunch of Killers!
In the eyes, Tubo and his party saluted slowly, turned around and wanted to leave.

Li Shimin bent his fingers, pinched the armrest with all his strength, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged, and said in a low voice.

"Lu An-chan."

"Reply to your Khan for me. Tuyuhun has exhausted all the cities, and the rebels don't worry about Tubo. If we insist on attacking, our Tang Dynasty will definitely send troops again, and the people of Tubo will return ten times the damage to every soldier! "

There was no wind in the hall, but Lu Anzan, who had his back to Li Shimin, clearly felt a gust of cold wind blowing over his neck and back, penetrating into his skin, it was extremely cold.

With a forced smile on his face, he turned around and saluted Li Shimin on the dragon seat.

"Zan heard that the Great Tang Imperial City is full of sparks and delicious food everywhere."

"This time, I waited for a group of people to come here without fear of hard work, and I will definitely enjoy the prosperous night scene of the Tang Dynasty."

"Your Majesty does not need to call for an answer this time, Zan can wait."

After all, Li Shimin, who didn't respond yet, turned around and led a group of people towards the outside of the hall.

As he hurriedly stepped out of the palace, Lu Anzan always felt a pair of eyes full of murderous intent staring straight at his back, which made people feel a little hairy.The moment he stepped out of the palace gate, he slowed down his steps and let out a long breath, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeves, covered his gaze from the scorching sun, and said in a low voice.

"Strange."

"The sun is hot, why is my whole body still so cold..."

The other side.

in the hall.

"Your Majesty, let me kill this Prime Minister and hang it on the top of the city to warn these alien envoys."

Su Dingfang really couldn't stand the arrogance of the Tubo envoys, and he was about to step out of the palace gate.

Yu Shinan, one of the civil servants, hurried forward to stop him, with a look of anxiety on his face.

"What are you doing!"

"That's an envoy, not Tubo Khan."

"Slaughter him, will you let the foreign envoys in the city laugh at you? Say that our Tang Dynasty is incompetent, and push the disadvantages of the war to the envoys to vent your anger?"

The footsteps were suffocated, and Zhang Gongjin, who was also a general, had red eyes and gritted her teeth.

"The majestic land of the Tang Dynasty, the solemn place can accommodate these barbarians? Where is the imperial prestige? Where is our man's iron blood?"

"I can't swallow this breath!"

After saying that, he made a gesture to go out.

Changsun Wuji walked out from the side of the hall, with deep wrinkles on his old cheeks, he stretched out his hand to interrupt the movement of the two.

"The state owns the state law, and the family has family rules. You also know that this is the court, so don't do it arbitrarily."

"Even though the time of Tubo is hateful, the war in Tuyuhun will definitely not stop because of the loss of a Tubo prime minister. On the contrary, it will only breed hatred between the two countries, and give up the country that our Tang Dynasty has worked so hard to fight."

After some words stabilized the two impulsive generals, they turned around and cupped their hands towards Li Shimin, the head of the palace, when they saw that they had stopped in place.

"Your Majesty, the matter has come to this point. Instead of venting your anger on the envoys, it is better to find a solution. In order to seek a sigh of relief and waste people and money to embark on the Western Expedition again, it is better to seek a solution from the letter of credence."

At this moment, the excited crowd remembered that the letter of credence seemed to have not been opened.

Li Shimin focused his eyes on the letter of credence, and waved his arms lightly, motioning for Eunuch Rong to read it out.

The frowning Eunuch Rong slowly unwrapped the vermilion lacquer, twisted the letter paper, and held the yellowed kraft paper roll, his long and thin voice echoed in the hall.

"Respect to His Majesty the Tang King, who is thousands of miles away, I send a warm message of blessings, I wish the Great Tang eradicate the Tuyuhun barbarian bandits, and help the people in the frontier get rid of the confidant's troubles, which is very happy."

"Although the tribe of Tuyuhun is scattered, the viciousness is hard to get rid of. I am afraid that the army will retreat and the barbarians will take advantage of it. Just now, I led the returned general to wait for a while to welcome the princess of the Tang Dynasty. I have reported that the whole territory of Tuyuhun is safe."

"The climate of the Tang Dynasty in the middle land is pleasant, and the princess is even more beautiful. How can the defeated country win the princess of the Tang Dynasty? This king is only bold enough to ask the king of the Tang Dynasty to marry the eldest princess, so as to achieve a good relationship between the two countries, which will last for a hundred years." Be friendly and neighborly. This king has prepared tens of thousands of cattle and sheep, and thousands of horses, waiting for everyone to be happy, and I hope His Majesty the Tang King will carefully consider it."

There was a long speech, and there was no sound in the entire hall, and the wrinkles on the faces of the officials became deeper.

Princess?
Is this to let Princess Changle marry far away and go to the barren land in the southwest?

In a moment of silence, Su Ding's face became more gloomy, and he took a step in front of the hall.

"Don't even think about it! The eldest princess is the jewel in the palm of His Majesty, and these thieves are daydreaming all day long!"

"The road is high and the road is far away. How can the princess's daughter be tortured like this? I think these barbarians are so presumptuous because we have just rested from the war and need to cultivate their health and rest!"

"Your Majesty! I implore Your Majesty to send troops to Tubo to attack the plateau kingdom."

Xiao Yu cast a sidelong glance at Li Shimin, who was sitting on the dragon seat, whose face was getting more and more gloomy, and tentatively stepped into the hall, bowing to him.

"Although General Su's words are some bloody and brave words, in the final analysis, he attributes the disaster of the war to the people of Tang Dynasty."

"Not to mention that there was almost no food and grass left in the Tang treasury during the Tuyuhun war, and there were already tens of thousands of Liumin on the western frontier. If taxes and grain were collected from all over the country, the corn that had been planted in the entire Tang country for the last season would be destroyed by the government. Once they have been confiscated, how will the increasing number of refugees be dealt with?"

"Tuyuhun was originally a country affiliated to the Tang Dynasty. In terms of its animal husbandry and agriculture, the development of mulberry is extremely low. The Tang Dynasty supported such a weak country, and the loss was far greater than this time. What's more, there were precedents before. Tubo did not rule the country immediately. [-]% will let the southwestern frontier rot."

After sorting it out, all the courtiers present had a clearer understanding of the pros and cons of this battle.

Generally speaking, it is not a wise move for Datang to help a subordinate country for the second district of righteousness.In addition, our Tang Dynasty traveled thousands of miles away, and the outcome of the battle is unclear, and it is very likely that the southwestern border will also be brought into the endless flames of war.

"Damn it! Is it possible to let them bully you like this? You civil servants are timid and fearful. I, Yuchi Jingde, am not the one to be bullied!"

Roaring with a thick throat, the only general in the Western Territory who did not want to take a bath, this time with a bit of arrogance of triumph, hammered his chest loudly.

"I'm not afraid of Tubo, anyway, sooner or later he will deal with it! Why don't we just rely on our unquenched fighting spirit and wipe it out in one fell swoop."

"No nonsense!"

The calm old words interrupted Yuchi Jingde's words, looked at Yuchi Jingde who was retreating in the queue with burning eyes, and said in a deep voice.

"Know yourself and know your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles. The Tubo Plateau is not as weak as we imagined, and Sun Zan's cadres are not unambitious masters of peace!"

"If Li Xian's sharp weapon comes out, even after the expedition, he can still start the journey again, but now the Tang Dynasty can't use all its power to deal with a distant Tubo. After all, although the Tang Dynasty is a fierce tiger, it must not fall into the trap of hunting dogs. surrounded."

After talking and falling, the entire hall was completely silent.

All the ministers realized in their hearts that it would be reluctant to go to war again, but this decision of marriage was really too worrying.

How could any father be willing to marry his own children to the frontier, let alone the jewel in His Majesty's palm?

Li Shimin's eyes were full of brilliance, tiger eyes swept across the audience, his face was gloomy and terrifying, and the deep emperor's voice slowly rose from the hall.

"Shen Guogong, do you think marriage is the best choice?"

Suddenly asked by name, Gao Shilian Xintou shuddered suddenly, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead with his hands in haste.

"I...don't dare."

snort!
A cold snort resounded through the main hall, Li Shimin flicked his sleeves angrily, stood up, and strode towards the side hall.

"Retreat!"
