Datang: Stop pretending, you are a peerless expert

"I thought we should stand up and let them know the majesty of our Tang Dynasty. It will save them from trying to plot us in the west."

Li Jing is a hawk in the Tang Dynasty, and he has one word for foreign enemies: kill!

"My minister agrees."

Xu Shiji was the first to agree.

Both the generals of the DPRK and China agree.

"Okay, get ready. The Minister of Honglu Temple went to meet him, and Duke Yi took the Xuanjia Army with him to let them know the might of my Tang army!"

Li Shimin made an order.

Li Daozong and Qin Qiong received the order.

"The minister leads the order."

Li Shimin waved his hands away, and quickly hid in the harem to avoid Wei Zheng's stalking.

"My lord, where did that crop come from?"

Wei Zheng chased after him, but was stopped by Eunuch Gao.

"Zheng Guogong, the inside is the residence of the concubines in the harem, please do not enter if it is inappropriate."

Wei Zheng had no choice but to leave the harem resentfully.

Li Shimin returned to the back court, and the queen saw him panicked.

"Your Majesty, what happened? Why are you in such a panic?"

Li Shimin shook his head and said, "It's dangerous, it's dangerous. This old farmer actually asked me where the corn and potatoes came from in the court hall."

The queen laughed and said, "Could it be possible that the emperor confessed Su Yu?"

Only Empress Changsun dared to play such a joke with Li Shimin.

The word "confess" is a term for torture.

"That's not true, it's just that this farmer actually dug a hole for me. I almost fell into his ambush."

"This Wei Zheng is not a fool. He was teased a few times by the emperor, and he learned to be smart."

The queen laughed.

"That's right, it's really hard to deal with."

Li Shimin shook his head and said.

A few days later,
Qin Qiong and Li Daozong entered Chang'an City with Tubo envoys.

There were more than 300 envoys who came to Chang'an City this time, which was beyond Li Daozong's expectation.

From Suzaku Street to Chengtianmen, the people on the street watched.

When they met Tibetan people for the first time, they thought it was very strange.

The Tubo people look at Chang'an City, and even Grandma Liu looks at the Grand View Garden.

"Such a good capital city, how good it would be if we were like that."

The Tubo envoy smiled sadly.

Qin Qiong looked at it coldly, and tightly shook the golden mace in his hand.

If it hadn't been for not beheading, Qin Qiong would have wanted to beat him to death just based on this sentence.

Walk into the Tai Chi Hall.

Li Shimin is sitting on the dragon chair, with civil and military officials standing on both sides.

Li Daozong and Qin Qiong said: "Qizuo the emperor, the Tubo envoy has arrived."

The Tubo envoy led the team this time, Songtsan Gampo's uncle, Lun Keer.

This person assisted Songtsan Gampo to quell the civil strife and took control of the court.

After the unification of Tubo, they fell in love with the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

Because the Eastern Turks had just been wiped out, they did not dare to act rashly.

Lun Keer brought envoys into Chang'an City to find out the facts. If the Tang Dynasty is strong, he will obey. If the Tang Dynasty is weak, he will take the opportunity to annex Tuyuhun, Dangxiang and other ministries.

"The great Tang Emperor Tian Khan, I am Lun Keer, the envoy of Tubo. I am an envoy to Tang under the order of the great king of Tubo, Songtsan Gampo, and I hope that the two countries will have good relations."

Lun Cole came out and saluted briefly, looking a little careless.

Wei Zheng looked at Lun Keer coldly, feeling aggrieved.

How dare such a small country be so careless in court.

Li Shimin smiled and said: "The Tang Dynasty and Tubo are neighboring countries, so they should be good friends."

"It's just that the tribes around the Tang Dynasty don't have my entrustment, how dare you be king!"

Li Shimin's imperial arrogance came out instantly, and Lun Ke'er was so overwhelmed that he didn't dare to look directly at him.

Is this the majesty of the Tang emperor?
Such a strong sense of oppression.

There is a kind of overbearing that dominates the world and submits to all races.

"We are here to ask for a title from the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty."

On Cole caved.

Li Shimin sneered slightly, counting them as acquainted.

With a population of hundreds of thousands, it is not as good as a county magistrate in Datang, who dares to call himself the king of Tubo.

"Your Majesty, enfeoffing foreign clans is not a trivial matter, and it needs to be considered in the long run."

Wei Zheng came out to worship.

He looked down on Tubo, so he dared to be arrogant to Li Shimin just now, and wanted to ask for his title.

"What Zheng Guogong said is true. The matter of enfeoffment is no small matter. I want to discuss it with my courtiers."

Li Shimin said.

Lun Keer didn't intend to be titled soon, this guy is old and cunning.

"Is there anything else?"

Li Shimin asked.

Lun Keer smiled slyly and said, "Our leader has prepared a gift for the emperor of Tang Dynasty."

He was called the king of Tubo just now, but now he is called the leader.

"Oh? Present it."

Li Shimin sneered.

Lun Cole opened a box, and there was a ball in it. The ball was jade-colored all over, with a slight emerald color inside, and it looked like a top-grade jade.

Eunuch Gao caught the ball and handed it to Li Shimin.

The courtiers looked at it and called Haoyu.

Li Shimin couldn't put it down.

"Back then, the He family from Chu obtained a beautiful bi, and presented it to the king of Chu, known as the He family's bi. You offer this jade ball today, and I like it very much."

The courtiers were also amazed.

Lun Keer said: "We got this jade ball in Kunlun Mountains. There are two holes in it, one for entrance and one for exit."

Li Shimin picked up the jade ball and took a closer look. There were indeed two holes the size of rice grains.

"These two holes are connected, but there are nine twists and eighteen bends inside."

"Our leader said that if someone in Datang can pass the thread through the jade ball, this thing will be used as a meeting gift."

Lun Cole smiled triumphantly.

There are conditions attached to giving gifts to the emperor.

Cheng Yaojin was furious: "If you want to give it away, you can give it away, if you don't want to give it away, you won't give it away. Why are there so many things?"

Qin Qiong shook her head, telling Cheng Yaojin to shut up.

This is obviously a provocation, and I feel that no one in Datang can solve this problem.

Li Shimin said with a chuckle, "I have a lot of skilled craftsmen in the Tang Dynasty, how can I not even be able to do anything with a jade ball?"

Eunuch Gao understood, and immediately asked the embroiderer in the palace to come out.

The most beautiful women in the world are here.

"The emperor has a decree. Whoever can pass the thread through the jade ball will be rewarded."

Eunuch Gao said.

Xiu Niang heard that there was a reward, so naturally she worked very hard.

But dozens of embroiderers tried all kinds of methods, but they still couldn't pass the thread through.

Eunuch Gao was sweating profusely.

Li Shimin was surprised, is this ball weird?
Lun Keer smiled proudly: "This jade ball is unusual. It is washed by snow water inside, like a maze. If you want to pass the thread through, you may have to wait until the ice and snow on the holy mountain melt."

The holy mountain he was talking about was Mount Everest.

Is it really a problem?
Li Shimin felt ashamed.

But it doesn't work well.

"Don't worry, the most coincidental embroiderer is not here. Let's talk about it tomorrow. The minister of Honglu Temple took the Tubo envoys down to rest."

Li Shimin laughed.

Li Daozong is not a fool, he immediately took the Tubo envoy out.

Lun Cole is very confident, he chuckled: "We are not in a hurry, we can wait for a year."

Li Shimin was very angry.

After the Tubo envoy left, all the ministers in the court came.

"My dear friends, you claim to be among the dragons and phoenixes among others, please tell me what to do."

The ministers fiddled together for a long time, but all failed.

"Could it be that guy is entertaining us? This ball is dead at all?"

Cheng Yaojin muttered.

"It makes sense, maybe it really is."

Du Ruhui said.
