Xuan Zhao said: "There are six poor monks who can't see through the details. There should be at least six of them, and their strength is not weaker than mine. So at the moment, although in a one-on-one contest, maybe we can be equal, but to defeat the opponent, it is not
An easy thing."
When Li Chengqian heard this, his heart sank.
Because the current situation is not conducive to their side.
However, Li Chengqian thought about it in his heart and said no more. The current situation can only be taken step by step, and wait and see what happens. In case he just didn't see through the opponent's strength, but in fact the opponent's strength is mediocre, and there is no
How awesome is that?
So right now, Li Chengqian is not in a hurry.
Li Chengqian led a group of people into the palace. At this moment, all civil and military officials gathered in the palace.
Everyone is there.
Li Chengqian led people into the main hall. He bowed and saluted: "My son, I pay my respects to my father."
"Meet His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!"
As the envoy of Goguryeo, Gao Cheng is now the leader among the countries in the Western Regions and the first to salute. In fact, when the countries in the Western Regions met with the envoys of Goguryeo, Silla, Baekje and other countries, everyone
Although they were united in meeting Li Shimin in order to coexist peacefully with the Tang Dynasty and prevent the Tang Dynasty from attacking them, there was also a fierce struggle among the countries for the leader. Everyone fought fiercely together.
Ichiban.
The method of fighting was very simple. It was a contest of martial arts. Warriors from various countries came out to compete. In the end, the warriors from Goguryeo were slightly better and defeated everyone, so Gao Cheng became the leader of everyone.
Following Gao Cheng's salute, everyone in the Western Regions all saluted.
Everyone bowed and saluted, showing great respect.
After everyone saluted, Gao Cheng took the lead and said: "Your Majesty the Emperor, we and other countries have come together to see His Majesty the Emperor. On the one hand, we want to congratulate the Emperor on his unification of the Tang Dynasty and his strength that is unparalleled in the world. On the other hand, all of us are willing to respect the Emperor.
Your Majesty is the co-lord, and I respect the Emperor as the Khan of Heaven."
When Li Shimin heard this, he laughed and said, "I am the monarch of the Tang Dynasty. Can I handle the affairs of all ethnic groups?"
When he said this, Li Shimin was actually quite proud.
The reason is very simple, all ethnic groups respect it.
Because there were a large number of forty-five people, large and small, Li Shimin was quite proud of this situation. In fact, this was also based on the fact that Li Shimin destroyed Jieli Khan and completely captured Tubo. In addition to this,
, the most important thing is that Datang's weapons are so powerful that everyone is in awe.
No one is Li Shimin's opponent.
No one dares to be Li Shimin's enemy.
So people from all over the world eventually got in touch and came together to see him.
Compared with history, Li Shimin was revered as the Khan of Heaven much earlier. In history, Li Shimin destroyed the Han Turks, the Western Turks, captured Tuyuhun, etc., expanded his territory to all countries in the Western Region, and even
Protectorate offices were established in various countries, and eventually Li Shimin was revered as the Khan of Heaven by all ethnic groups.
Being revered as the Khan of Heaven is essentially a manifestation of strength.
Today's Tang Dynasty is also powerful.
Conquer all countries.
So people from all over the world are now coming together, and even some other tribes and races on the grassland have come one after another. They all expressed their willingness to submit because they were worried that they would be destroyed by Li Shimin.
Gao Cheng heard Li Shimin's words and knew what Li Shimin meant. He smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you are the princess of the world, so you can naturally handle our affairs. I, your Majesty, see you."
When he said this, Gao Cheng bowed respectfully again.
This is treating oneself as a subordinate.
This shows that the current attitude of Goguryeo is to respect the Tang Dynasty as the main country and as a subsidiary state of the Tang Dynasty. In fact, Goguryeo is unwilling to give up its independence and insists on being independent. Especially before the fall of Tubo, Goguryeo's domestic
People, many warring factions, want to fight, but now, no one dares to mention fighting, because the defeat of Tubo and the news of many weapons of the Tang Dynasty have made countless people in Goguryeo
Fear and awe.
Everyone was scared.
Everyone is afraid.
Therefore, now that Goguryeo has reached a unified opinion, it is better to stay on the sidelines and preserve its own strength.
I will plan something else later.
"My lord, see His Majesty the Emperor."
The envoys of Silla Kingdom immediately bowed and saluted.
"My lord, see His Majesty the Emperor."
The Gumo Kingdom in the Western Regions also immediately bowed and saluted.
"My lord, see His Majesty the Emperor."
…
Envoys from various countries, as well as people from all ethnic groups on the border of the Tang Dynasty, all bowed and saluted. When these people saluted, they were all respectful, and their faces were quite sincere.
There is no way, Datang is very powerful.
They can't afford it.
I can only admit it first and then talk about it.
At this moment, Li Shimin's face was radiant. As the emperor of a country, especially as a nation like China, which has had the idea of unification throughout its history, Li Shimin has now made all countries submit to him, and they all respect him as the Khan of Heaven.
As the co-owner, he is extremely proud and feels even more proud.
Li Shimin waved his hand and said: "Everyone, stand still!"
Everyone thanked him and stood on their own feet.
After everyone stood still, the atmosphere in the hall was quite harmonious at this moment.
Li Chengqian was also in the main hall. He was at the head of the left side. Looking at the scene happening in front of him, his eyes were alert and vigilant, and he never relaxed at all. He did not directly think that because of what happened now, all countries had already
If you are determined to follow the Tang Dynasty, that is definitely impossible.
The monarchs of various countries still have their own ideas.
Envoys from various countries also have intentions.
While Li Chengqian was on guard, Gao Cheng's face was filled with a smile, and he continued: "Your Majesty, I have admired the Celestial Kingdom for a long time. Because the Tang Dynasty is located in the center of all nations and is the Celestial Kingdom, regardless of the population of the Tang Dynasty,
Whether it’s the culture of the Tang Dynasty or the military strategies of the Tang Dynasty, they are far superior to us. When it comes to culture, we can’t even compare.”
"For example, before the Tang Dynasty, hundreds of schools of thought contended during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. There were Confucius, Laozi, Mozi, Han Feizi, Guiguzi and countless other amazing and talented people, and countless books were handed down."
"Such culture is admirable."
Gao Cheng's words were full of flattery, but in fact, they were just a bunch of useless nonsense. Such words could not possibly confuse people. Although Li Shimin had a smile on his face, he was still sober in his heart.
Li Shimin smiled and said: "We, the Tang Dynasty, have indeed inherited countless cultures. Therefore, the Tang Dynasty has a brilliant style of writing and a large number of talents. Of course, if people from all over the world want to come to study, I welcome them. Even people from all over the world want to come to the Tang Dynasty.
Come, I welcome you too."
His answer was neither soft nor hard. (To be continued)
