On the second day, at the court meeting, all civil and military officials gathered together.
Park Budong, the envoy of Silla Kingdom, was also brought up.
Pu Butong was shocked again when he entered the palace of the Tang Dynasty.
The Imperial Palace of the Tang Dynasty is the real imperial palace.
The carved railings and painted buildings were magnificent and majestic. As Pu Budong walked on the steps, he felt more and more insignificant.
Compared with it, the royal palace of Silla Kingdom was like a doghouse, there was no comparison at all.
However, when he arrived at the main hall, Park Butong immediately changed from extreme inferiority to extreme arrogance.
All this was because of what Song San said yesterday, which made him understand that the current Tang Dynasty simply did not dare to go to war with their Silla country.
Therefore, after Pu Butong casually saluted Li Chengqian in the palace, he said arrogantly: "Your Highness, the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, have you read the credentials of our Silla Kingdom? Do you have the conditions we proposed?
No answer?"
What the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty did not expect was that the official certificate of Silla was written in the language of Silla.
But this envoy from the Silla Kingdom can actually speak Chinese, and although he has a strange accent, he is extremely fluent.
Seeing that the envoy from Silla was so arrogant, Li Chengqian couldn't help but show displeasure on his face, and at the same time he felt that the matter was difficult.
Next, Li Chengqian couldn't help but look at Li Min, which seemed to mean that he would leave this matter to you.
But Li Chengqian's action made the ministers headed by Changsun Wuji shake their heads slightly.
At this time, Li Min took a step forward and said: "Your Highness, I have already written the reply."
Li Chengqian couldn't help but nodded and said: "Okay, then you can read it to the envoy of Silla Kingdom in front of the audience."
Li Min nodded and couldn't help but read the reply's credentials aloud.
However, except for the messenger Pu Butong, no one present could understand what was being said.
Park Butong, on the other hand, became angrier the more he listened and became furious on the spot.
After Li Min finished reciting, Pu Butong was already furious and couldn't help roaring: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, have you really decided to meet our Silla soldiers? Humph! By then our Silla army of millions will launch
, the point of the sword is invincible, please don’t realize it!”
Um?
What did Li Min say in his reply?
Why did the envoy of Silla Kingdom get so angry?
Li Chengqian said to Li Min calmly: "Brother Emperor, please read this book again in Chinese."
Li Min nodded and began to read: "I, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, have a far-reaching reputation and a reputation throughout the world. Is it the king's land in the whole world, and is it the king's ministers who lead the army? The soldiers of our army of the Tang Dynasty are brave, the soldiers are elite, and the weapons are excellent.
.”
"The rampant Turks were easily dispersed by the righteous masters of the Tang Dynasty. Within the four seas, all countries surrendered. India presented birds that can talk, Persia presented snakes that can catch rats, and garlic presented dogs that can tame horses. Our court will enjoy them.
The white parrots come from Keling, the luminous pearls come from Linyi, Guli offers famous horses, and Niboluo offers good wine."
"The reason why they do this is simply because they are afraid of my power, are grateful for my favor, and pay tribute in exchange for peace. The small country of Xinluo is just a small country. In our Tang Dynasty, it is just a county."
"And you have unexpectedly become mad and rebellious, trying to take over the entire Goguryeo and making rude remarks. When I, the Celestial Empire, send out troops to attack you, we will surely bleed thousands of miles away, capture your royal family, and destroy your country."
"I hope you will not bring about your own destruction and death, so as not to become the laughing stock of other neighboring countries. I hope you will think twice and not make mistakes!"
After listening to Li Min's credentials, the generals headed by Cheng Yaojin applauded one after another.
Li Chengqian, Changsun Wuji and other civil servants had worried looks on their faces.
As for the officials from the aristocratic family factions, their faces were filled with joy.
At this time, Pu Butong threatened again: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, are you really ready to go to war with our Silla? If so, let's fight! I will definitely report it to us after we go back.
King, send troops to attack the Tang Dynasty!"
After saying that, Pu Butong turned around and strode out.
Seeing this scene, Li Chengqian quickly shouted: "Silla envoy, please wait."
Pu Butong stopped, turned around and asked with a sneer: "I wonder if your highness has any instructions?"
"this--"
For a moment, Li Chengqian didn't know how to reply.
Should we ask him to change his tone?
Li Chengqian would definitely not and would not dare to do this.
However, if you don’t give in, what should you say if you call the other party to stop?
After a while, Li Chengqian said to Li Min: "Sixth brother, I will leave this matter to you!"
Li Min nodded, then smiled slightly and said to Pu Butong: "Messenger of Silla, isn't Silla going to launch a million-strong army to fight against the Tang Dynasty?"
Pu Butong said proudly: "That's right! But you forced us to do this!"
Li Min laughed loudly and said: "Okay! If you want to fight! Then let's fight! Then we'll see you on the battlefield. I won't send you far away!"
Pu Butong sneered several times, turned around and left.
At this time, Li Chengqian's face looked particularly ugly.
He never expected that Li Min would handle this matter so simply and crudely.
Did King Gu mean for you to deal with it this way?
However, anyway, this matter is handled by him alone. If something happens, he will be responsible for it!
Cheng Yaojin and a bunch of other veterans kept cheering. They had been itching for a long time and felt uncomfortable all over because of the lack of fighting in recent years.
This time, there was finally a fight.
The officials who were direct descendants of the aristocratic family also looked happy, thinking that they had caught Li Mintian's powerful handle.
The most uncomfortable person at this moment was actually Pu Butong who was striding out.
At this time, Park Butong was not as arrogant as he showed.
I have been hoping in my heart: hurry up and call me, hurry up and call me!
Why don't you shout?
Pu Butong came with a mission, but this mission was definitely not to start a war with the Tang Dynasty.
If the relationship with Datang breaks down because of his arrogance, he will have no way of explaining it after he returns.
However, until he was almost out of the hall, no one called him.
Pu Butong quietly began to slow down his pace, but even though the hall was huge, there was still time to finish.
Finally, he stepped out of the hall with one foot.
But the other foot has not yet stepped out.
After a while, Pu Butong took back his steps, turned around and walked back.
Um?
Why is this envoy from Silla Kingdom back?
After Pu Butong came back, he once again asked Li Chengqian aggressively: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, are you really ready to go to war with our Silla Kingdom?"
This time, in the fierceness, there was a hint of lust and inner anger.
Li Chengqian is actually not stupid, he just lacks a sense of responsibility.
How could he not see Park Butong's guilty conscience at this time?
