With a pot of sake and two plates of vegetarian dishes, His Majesty Li Er didn't have the slightest air of being the supreme king in the world. He was dressed in comfortable casual clothes. His hair was loosely tied behind his head and tied with a plain belt. He was sitting on the floor of Shujing Hall's study room, very relaxed.
.
Princess Changle knelt beside her, with a small wine cup placed in front of her, and drank slowly with the emperor.
Outside the open window, you can see the lake and the willow trees along the bank. The bright yellow branches and slender willows sway gently with the evening breeze, giving you a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere...
The arrival of Fang Jun, the "evil guest", broke the quiet and warm atmosphere.
So His Majesty Li Er glared at him displeased.
Fang Jun was stared at inexplicably...
Even though you are the emperor and the biggest, you still have to give a reason even if you are beheaded, right? Why are we being rejected without even understanding the situation?
She glanced at Princess Changle, who was sitting upright and looking dignified and virtuous, and blinked, hoping that Princess Changle would give her some tips. Unexpectedly, Her Royal Highness's eyelashes trembled, her eyebrows lowered, and she glanced at Fang Jun from the end of her eyes...
There was no other way, so Fang Jun had no choice but to bite the bullet and say the courtesy: "I have met your Majesty, I have met His Highness."
His Majesty Li Er snorted and said in a bad tone: "Is something wrong?"
"Well……"
Isn't this nonsense? It's almost curfew. Why should we go to the palace if we have nothing to do?
But looking at His Majesty Li Er's unhappy expression, although he didn't know the reason, he could not help but feel uneasy. It was not a good thing for this man to be fickle when his temper got up. Rolling his eyes, Fang Jun said: "Ah, actually.
His Majesty Li Er glared at him: "If you have something to say, just say it. If you have something to say, just say it."
Fang Jun was speechless.
Is this something the emperor can say?
What about dignity?
What about decency?
Fang Jun quickly told what he had just seen Lu Dongzan, but his words only brought out Li Xiaogong a little, without making too many comments. Although Fang Jun was not satisfied with Li Xiaogong's handling of this matter, he was still quite satisfied with himself.
For the sake of taking care of him, Fang Jun couldn't do such things as talking about people behind their backs.
Princess Changle stood up and took a wine cup from the side, placed it in front of Fang Jun, and silently filled the wine cup for him, her movements were very natural.
Fang Jun quickly thanked him, but his eyes slipped around those slender hands as white as jade...
His Majesty Li Er didn't pay attention to this. He picked up the wine cup and took a sip. He sneered and said: "You shot yourself in the foot? Humph, I thought I had no plan, but now I am being threatened.
Should I say that you are ignorant, or that you are arrogant?"
Fang Jun was sweating a little.
In fact, he took this matter for granted at the beginning...
The profits brought by highland barley wine were enough to make Tubo nobles flock to it. The result was a food shortage in Tubo, which was then controlled by the Tang Dynasty. When a country's food lifeline is controlled by another country, the consequences can be imagined.
But how could he have imagined that Songtsen Gampo would be so courageous that he would use this to threaten the Tang Dynasty. If he did not help him unify the opposition forces within Tibet, he would simply launch an army to go to war with the Tang Dynasty in the name of grabbing land and people...
…
How could the generation of monarchs in history who was able to unify Tubo and establish Tubo's strong power be an easy generation?
It is conceivable that when Songtsan Gampo launched a war under the banner of "grabbing land and grabbing people", those Tibetan nobles whose eyes were red with the profits from highland barley wine must have responded and strongly supported it. The scale of the war was absolutely
No small matter.
As for the sales of highland barley wine after the war with the Tang Dynasty, there is actually no need to worry. Although the Tang Dynasty has a large population and the sales volume is huge, if the Tang Dynasty cuts off the sales of highland barley wine, Tubo can still go north and sell the highland barley wine to the Western Regions, and then sell it through the Silk Road
Go to Dashi and wait further west.
It is indeed not an exaggeration to say that Fang Jun "shot himself in the foot"...
Fang Jun was a little stunned and a little ashamed, and didn't know what to say.
His Majesty Li Er said: "In the past, you persuaded me to refuse the marriage, and even came up with the saying that 'no land will be ceded without the marriage', which made me become passionate for a while. I believed your nonsense and posted all those words on Shenlong.
In the palace's palace... What's going on now? Do you regret it? In fact, this matter is very simple. As long as you agree to Tubo's marriage, everything will be over. 'Eastern Datang Company' can continue to make huge profits from highland barley wine.
Wealth, Songtsen Gampo can control the interior of Tubo with the support of the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty can at least get decades of peace, so why not?"
This is indeed the case historically.
Songtsen Gampo had a profound admiration for the prosperous Tang Dynasty. In the eighth year of Zhenguan, he sent an envoy to Chang'an to express his greetings to the Tang Dynasty. His Majesty Li Er also attached great importance to the first envoy to Tibet and immediately sent envoy Feng Dexia to express his greetings with a letter.
In return, Songtsen Gampo was "overjoyed when he saw Deya. Hearing that both Tuyuhun and Tuyuhun were princesses, he sent envoys to follow Deya into the court, gave him lots of gold and treasures, and proposed marriage." However, His Majesty Li Er did not agree at that time.
Songtsen Gampo sent people to ask for marriage from the Tang Dynasty several times but failed to do so, so he decided to use force to marry. In the twelfth year of Zhenguan, the first war between Tibet and Tang Dynasty broke out.
However, the war could not solve the problem after all. In the fourteenth year of Zhenguan, Songtsen Gampo sent Prime Minister Gar Dongzan to prepare a generous gift - five thousand taels of gold and hundreds of treasures and treasures, and went to Chang'an to propose marriage to His Majesty Li Er again.
The following year, His Majesty Li Er agreed to marry Songtsen Gampo to Princess Wencheng, the daughter of the clan...
During his reign, he regarded the development of close relations with the Tang Dynasty as the basic national policy to create a powerful and prosperous Tubo Dynasty, making the relationship between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty extremely harmonious. In the eighteenth year of Zhenguan, His Majesty Li Er returned from an expedition to Liaodong, but the war was unfavorable
, unhappy. Songtsen Gampo immediately sent Ludongzan to Chang'an to present a memorial and presented a golden goose made of gold, "seven feet high, with three pods of solid wine in it" as a symbol of Tubo's friendship with the Tang Dynasty.
Expressed. He also wrote a letter saying: "Your Majesty has pacified the four directions, illuminated by the sun and moon, and governed them. Goryeo relied on its distance and was not led by etiquette. The emperor himself will cross the Liao Dynasty, and the city will be in battle. He will triumphantly point to the sun. Although the geese fly in the sky, there will be no
Such speed. My husband's goose is like a wild goose, and I am willing to smelt gold and make it into a goose as an offering."
In the 22nd year of Zhenguan, Youwei led the governor Shi Wang Xuance on a mission to the Western Regions, but was almost killed by Zhongtianzhu. It was Songtsan Gampo who sent elite soldiers from Wang Xuance to defeat him, creating the eternal legend of Wang Xuance that "one man destroyed a country"
…
It can be said that Songtsen Gampo was extremely close to the Tang Dynasty, regardless of whether he had to do it because of the country's power, or whether he really admired the Tang Dynasty in his heart, in short, this is indeed the case.
But it was precisely because of Datang's support in medical, agricultural, cultural, institutional and other aspects that Tubo gradually became stronger and stronger, which eventually led to Tubo's ambition to seize the four towns of Anxi from Datang and completely destroy the Central Plains dynasty.
Cut off the control of the Western Region...
There is no eternal peace between countries, only eternal interests.
Want peace?
Then the only way is to suppress the enemy country fiercely, not giving it a chance to rise, and letting it always be attached to you and surrender to you.
Therefore, getting married is absolutely not possible...
Fang Jun was stabbed a few times by His Majesty Li Er, and he was a little unsure whether His Majesty Li Er was teasing or sarcastic, or whether he really had the idea of getting married. After all, in His Majesty Li Er's heart, the goal of pacifying Goguryeo and permanently incorporating the peninsula into the Tang Dynasty was
The eternal pursuit of establishing his own grand hegemony as an emperor within the territory of the world is his eternal pursuit. The mere Tubo may not be in his eyes at all...
What if His Majesty Li Er really has this idea? As a person who can "see" the future, how can he allow such a tiger-raising thing to happen in front of his eyes?
Fang Jun nodded and said: "Your Majesty's words make sense. It's just that none of your princesses are of the right age... But fortunately, this arduous task can be entrusted to Her Royal Highness Princess Changle... Her Royal Highness is beautiful and intelligent, but she is also a hero among women.
The women will not let the men down, and they will definitely be able to perfectly complete the generation-to-generation friendship between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo, making Tubo become the barrier of the Tang Dynasty, rather than the tiger lying beside the bed."
His Majesty Li Er sneered and looked at Fang Jun unkindly.
Princess Changle remained silent, but silently stood up and quietly took away the wine cup in front of Fang Jun before he had a chance to drink... took it away...
In fact, Fang Jun, His Majesty Li Er and even Princess Changle who are here know very well that even if His Majesty Li Er marries someone to Tibet, it cannot be Princess Changle! It is obvious that Fang Jun's words are irritating His Majesty Li Er. If you want to get married,
, then first think about the difficulties and hardships of marrying your daughter to a foreign country and living with the foreigners.
How can it be so easy to accept peace bought with one's own daughter?
The truth is correct, and the method is good, but this is what Princess Changle hears... That is to say, Princess Changle has a virtuous temperament, and His Majesty Li Er is present, otherwise Fang Jun will be tickled with peach blossoms all over his face!
