The eldest grandson frowned, looked at Li Shimin who was sitting peacefully in front of him and sighed softly: "But the name of a robber marquis is indeed a bit unpleasant! Moreover, I also heard:
Those Goguryeo people are still intentionally or unintentionally implicating Xiao Han and their actions on Erlang. If envoys from other countries take this matter as your instruction, I am afraid it will damage the reputation of the Tang Dynasty! It is impossible to say that it will arouse the attention of other countries.
Hostility.”
"Damage to reputation? Hostility from other countries?"
Hearing his eldest grandson's worry, Li Shimin couldn't help but chuckle again, but this laughter was full of disdain and contempt.
"Xiao Han has a saying that I think is right!"
Putting the ink pen in his hand on the pen mountain, Li Shimin supported the table bank, stood up slowly, and then walked out of the hall and said loudly and forcefully: "He said that the so-called dignity only exists on the edge of the sword!
The truth in the world is only within the range of a cannon!
What do those foreign envoys think and think, and what does it have to do with us, the Tang Dynasty? Why should I, the Tang Dynasty, care about their feelings and take care of their face?!"
When he said this, Li Shimin happened to walk out of the hall and came to the stone steps outside.
Standing on the high stone steps, Li Shimin, dressed in a black dragon robe, has his hands behind his back, with the bright starry sky above his head and the majestic city below his feet!
At this moment, he stood proudly between heaven and earth like a divine mansion!
"Datang is meant to make others afraid, not liked!"
——————————————————————
Five days in a row!
Although there is a lot of commotion in the market!
Although the Goguryeo envoys were in Chang'an, they tried their best and caused uproar in the city!
But the palace they most wanted to enter was always like a mountain, without even the slightest reaction to it!
There was no response even to the information they handed in asking for an interview.
This made the Goguryeo envoys secretly wonder: Was it because the Tang emperor was cowarded and refused to admit the atrocities he had committed, so he delayed seeing them? Did he want to make a big thing a trivial matter?
"Ambassador Park, tomorrow is the great court meeting of the Tang Dynasty. It stands to reason that the emperor of the Tang Dynasty will summon envoys from other countries on this day as usual. Do you think he will not summon us?"
In a separate courtyard room in Honglu Temple.
As the deputy envoy, Gao He was worried about this, and the chief envoy of the delegation, Park Zhizhang, said.
When Pu Zhizhang, who was sitting in the main seat, heard this, he also frowned. After a while, he slammed the table and said coldly: "The timid Emperor of the Tang Dynasty actually dares to do something he doesn't dare to do! He didn't even meet us.
We don’t even dare! If they don’t let us enter the palace tomorrow, then we will make a big fuss at the entrance of the palace! Let them, who claim to be a country of etiquette, lose face!”
"This..." When Deputy Envoy Gao He heard that he was going to cause trouble in front of the Tang Dynasty Palace, his expression changed instantly. He hesitated and said, "Is this too risky? What if they become angry and kill us..."
"They won't!" Pu Zhizhang rudely interrupted Gao He's words, and sneered at the same time: "There is an old saying in the Tang Dynasty, if the two countries are fighting, the envoys will not be killed! Even if the envoys are not killed during the war, we are now
The war hasn’t started yet! I don’t believe they will show off and attack us!”
"That's it..." Gao He finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and a hint of excitement flashed across his face: "Then I'll be relieved!"
"Don't worry!" Pu Zhizhang sneered and patted Gao He on the shoulder, and continued: "Don't forget, we also bribed some Tang officials! If there is any trouble tomorrow, they will also speak for us!"
"Oh? Hahaha, when the time comes, they will bite each other, and the scene will be very interesting!"
Gao He's eyes lit up, and he laughed loudly. After laughing, he asked excitedly: "By the way, I wonder how many officials of the Tang Dynasty we have bribed, and what are their grades? Can they speak well in the court?"
What?"
"this……"
Hearing Gao He suddenly ask these questions, the smile on Pu Zhizhang's face immediately stiffened. After hesitating for a moment, he sighed and said: "There are not many people, and the grade is not high! These Tang people are arrogant and treat us as nothing."
They are barbarians! So it is not easy to get in touch with them! These people are also the ones we like, and we gave them a lot of gold, silver and women, and used them as leverage, so we can barely bribe them!"
"These bastards!" Gao He was angry and groaned through gritted teeth: "These despicable Tang people! Why are they arrogant? Have they forgotten that twenty years ago, they were beaten by our great Goguryeo and fled without their armor?
Already?
When we come here this time, we must be polite first and then fight! It would be easier if their emperor understands and apologizes to us, and then hand over those evil thieves. If not, when we return to the country, we will definitely persuade His Majesty to send his troops north.
, let these arrogant Tang people know how powerful our great Goguryeo country is!"
"Yes, yes!"
"That's it! Let them know how powerful we are!"
"Long live the great Goguryeo Kingdom..."
As Gao He shouted angrily, the other Goguryeo envoys in the room suddenly became excited as if they were on stimulants! Regardless of the fact that they were on the ground of the Tang Kingdom, they all shouted excitedly.
By this time, the sky was already dark and the surroundings had long since become quiet.
The shouts of these people immediately spread out from the small courtyard along with the night wind, and reached the Turkic courtyard not far away.
At the same time, a Turk who was drinking alone in the courtyard heard these noisy sounds and couldn't help but raise his head and smile coldly in the direction of the Goguryeo courtyard.
As a professional envoy, he had carefully studied the languages of several neighboring countries, so he could naturally understand what these Goguryeo people were saying.
However, in his eyes, these arrogant Goguryeo people were even more disgusting than the Tang people.
"Send the army north? If you really have the courage, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty would probably laugh out loud in his dreams! Even the last time my Turkic warriors went north, they were almost beaten to the death of the country. If you go north, you are rushing to give
They give slaves!
What about the big victory you had before? You didn’t even urinate and take a look at it. That was your big victory? You didn’t just rely on the right time and place, and you just picked up the bargain in the end!”
After saying this to himself, the Turkic envoy raised his head again, drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and was about to stagger back to his room to sleep. Unexpectedly, as soon as his hand touched the door, a flash of lightning suddenly flashed through his mind.
!
"Yes, the Goguryeo people are going to die if they go north, so what about us Turks? If it's not enough, what about Wei Shi, Khitan, Hui Chu? No matter how powerful the Tang State is, is it possible that it can defeat so many of our countries?!
