Black Myth: Tang Dynasty

Chapter 408

Tai Chi Palace.

After Li Daoxuan showed the gold medal bestowed by the emperor, he traveled smoothly all the way, and soon arrived outside the Anren Hall.

Today Li Shimin did not continue to deal with political affairs in the Ganlu Hall after he came down from the court, but met someone in the Anren Hall. The outside was heavily guarded and bad people were guarding the door.

When they saw that it was Li Daoxuan seeking to see him, the unscrupulous people's eyes lit up one after another, showing admiration.

Li Daoxuan not only rescued their Captain Baihu, but also chased and killed the evil Buddha Maha in the sky above the capital under the attention of everyone, which can be said to make Datang proud and show off his might.

They immediately went in to report.

One of them even took the initiative to reveal the news to Li Daoxuan, saying that His Majesty was entertaining Tubo envoys inside, and there was a monk among them, who seemed very powerful.

Li Daoxuan's heart moved, Tubo is located on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, southwest of the Tang Dynasty, and the current relationship with the Tang Dynasty is not bad, and it is an ally.

However, Li Daoxuan knew that in the next 300 years, the Tang Dynasty and Tubo would break out many wars. Although this country on the plateau is not as aggressive as the Turks, it will often show its fangs and pretend to be a vassal , but in fact has hidden ambitions.

For example, when Princess Wencheng entered Tibet, it was Songtsen Gampo's military proposal.

At that time, Songtsen Gampo failed to propose a marriage, so he led an army of 20 to attack the western border of Songzhou in Datang, and declared, "If the princess does not come, I will go deep."

Although Datang won the war later, in order to appease Songtsen Gampo, he married Princess Wencheng to the past.

In particular, it can be seen that Tubo, who is obedient on the surface, is actually a hidden enemy.

But now Songtsan Gampo is only 11 years old and has not yet become Zanpu. His father Nangri Songtsan has only unified the plateau for a few years, and he has an alliance attitude towards Datang.

Not long after, Gao Quan, the chief eunuch, came out of Anren Hall in a hurry. When he saw that Li Daoxuan's complexion was rosy and everything was normal, he was not only relieved.

"Really Li, His Majesty has been very worried about you these past few days. He has sent people to visit you several times, just because he is worried that you will be injured."

Li Daoxuan smiled and said: "Thank you for your concern, I am fine, by the way, what's going on here?"

He vaguely felt that something was wrong with Gao Quan's expression.

Hearing Li Daoxuan's words, Gao Quan began to complain.

"Reverend Li doesn't know something. Tubo envoys came to Beijing these days. They heard about your defeat of the evil Buddha. They said that they admired you very much. They asked His Majesty many times to see you."

After a pause, Gao Quan whispered, "I think they are not admiring you, but want to test your real strength, or see if you are injured."

Li Daoxuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and said: "I understand, what does His Majesty want me to do?"

Gao Quan leaned over and wanted to say something, but he glanced at the mediocre maid behind Li Daoxuan.

The implication is that he wants the maid to leave first.

Empress Tsing Yi looked indifferent, she bent slightly, and gave a blessing to Li Daoxuan, saying: "My lord, then I will take my leave first."

A hand reached out and grabbed her wrist firmly.

Li Daoxuan held that slender white wrist, feeling the soft and smooth touch under the thin clothes, his heart skipped a beat.

He smiled at Gao Quan: "Eunuch Gao, her name is Qing Ni, she is my...maid, and the person I trust the most, you don't have to avoid her in anything."

The Empress in Tsing Yi lowered her eyes, looking at her wrist held by Li Daoxuan, wisps of divine light accumulated in her pupils, but finally disappeared, she sighed softly in her heart.

Forget it, since he said he wanted to pretend to be his maid, as long as this little thief doesn't go too far, let him do it.

Only this time, not the next time.

Li Daoxuan's back was covered in cold sweat, just now he had a strong warning in his heart, like falling into an ice cave, it was like walking through the gate of hell.

Fortunately, the empress did not resist in the end.

Gao Quan looked at this plain looking maid in surprise, he was not interested in so many beauties that His Majesty bestowed on Li Zhenren, but now he is so protective of this maid, which shows that this woman has an unusual status in his heart.

"Really Li, what your majesty means is that if you are not injured, please go in and frighten them later. Of course, if you are injured, please go back to recuperate first, and don't intervene in this matter. Your majesty will Take care of everything."

Li Daoxuan's eyes moved, and said: "Your Majesty wants to use troops against the Turks, right?"

Gao Quan's eyes were shocked, wondering: "How can our family know this kind of secret?"

Li Daoxuan nodded and smiled slightly.

His Majesty must have wanted to use troops against the Turks, even if not now, it would have been in the past few years. That's why he wanted to deter Tubo and use both kindness and power to stabilize the southern part of the Tang Dynasty.

"It is said that the Tantra of Tubo has been passed down from generation to generation. It is proficient in the method of empowerment and can open Su Hui. Today, the poor Taoist just gained a lot of knowledge. Eunuch Gao, please."

"Oh, Master Li is too polite, please!"

Li Daoxuan walked in, and the empress in Tsing Yi followed behind him, keeping a distance of half a body, neither humble nor overbearing, calm and composed, this demeanor made Gao Quangao take a few glances, secretly said that she was worthy of being Li Zhenren's maid, she was indeed extraordinary place.

……

In the Anren Hall, the singing and dancing are in full swing, and the wine is on the third tour.

The Tubo missions were all sitting in the banquet, watching the dancers singing and dancing, their eyes shone slightly.

Among them, it is rare to see such young women dancing in neon clothes and wearing makeup.

There are only two people with clear eyes, one with a vicissitudes of life, 50 to [-] years old, quite a shrewd and capable temperament, facing these charming dancers, they are just admiring, not enthusiastic.

The other person is a foreign monk. He looks very young, in his 20s, handsome and handsome, with sharp eyes, and there seems to be a surge of spiritual light. The most striking thing is the spiritual pattern on the center of his eyebrows. There is a strange luster faintly.

At this moment, he clasped his hands together, and the table was filled with light vegetarian food. The beauty was in front of him, and his expression was still calm. His eyes were neither shy nor active, as if he was looking at a group of pink skeletons.

Li Shimin sat at the top, quietly observing the group of Tubo envoys, his eyes lingering on the monks and capable men.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your hospitality. The fine wines of the Great Tang made me intoxicated, and the beauties of the Great Tang also opened my eyes. I just don't know when will I be able to meet the hero of the Great Tang who defeated Maha?"

The man with a vicissitudes of life and a capable temperament raised his wine glass and respected Li Shimin.

Li Shimin frowned slightly, this was the second time they mentioned this matter.

As if aware of the unhappiness of the Tang Emperor, the young monk suddenly said: "Your Majesty does not know that three years ago, when Mahe went to Tibet as an envoy, his family teacher was defeated by him. I am not Maha's opponent, so I have great admiration for Li Zhenren, and I beg Your Majesty to be merciful to let me meet Daoist Li."

Li Shimin said indifferently: "Tai Chong is currently practicing in seclusion. After his seclusion is over, you can naturally visit him."

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.

"Hehe, is it a closed-door training, or a closed-door healing?"

Everyone looked around, only to see a Tubo envoy with a beard flushed face, drunkenly said: "Master, in my opinion, that so-called Reverend Li dare not see you, although he defeated Maha, it is said that he borrowed The power of others has already been beaten back to its original form at this moment."

After a pause, he hiccupped and said mockingly, "If I see you...I'm afraid I can't even beat you with one hand!"

　Thank you for the [-] rewards of Day Xing Wuying, love it!
