Black Myth: Tang Dynasty

Chapter 410 An inch of mountains and rivers and an inch of blood, I am so strong!

For a moment, all eyes were on the unknown maid standing behind Li Daoxuan.

Even Li Shimin showed curiosity.

He had never seen Li Daoxuan caring so much about a woman, he even peeled her skin himself, and handed it to her in public.

Maids always peel pears for their masters, how can a master serve a maid?

But what surprised them was that the ordinary-looking maid in Tsing Yi, facing the pears that Li Daoxuan had personally peeled, not only was not flattered, but her eyes were indifferent, and she didn't pick it up for a long time.

Li Daoxuan coughed and said with a smile: "Qing Ni, there are so many people watching, you don't want to embarrass me, so how about giving me a taste?"

The maid completely ignored everyone's gaze, sighed softly, and said, "That's it, Qing Ni obeys."

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, she picked up the pear and took a bite.

"How is it, sweet?"

The maid said indifferently: "It's okay, thank you, young master."

Li Daoxuan laughed, seemingly very happy,
Everyone was stunned to see this scene, defeated the evil Buddha, the famous Daoist Taichong doted on a maid so much, if she was a peerless beauty, it would be fine, but she had an ordinary appearance and no trace of cultivation.

Some Tubo envoys looked at Li Daoxuan with a hint of contempt inevitably in their eyes.

Li Daoxuan was unmoved, the court ladies danced gracefully at the banquet, with light gauze and thin skirts, but he didn't look at them at all. Instead, he took some delicate fruits and snacks from the table from time to time and handed them to the maid beside him.

The room was full of fans, and among the heroes present, it seemed that none of them could compare to her little maid.

After a while, the singing and dancing ended, and Wang Bo walked in.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the person who was yelling in the hall just now has finished his punishment."

Li Shimin's expression remained unchanged, and he said lightly, "Are you still alive?"

"Your Majesty, I still have some breath, and I have sent someone to the Imperial Medical Office."

Gonpo clenched his fists tightly. As the leader of the mission, he could only sit back and watch his subordinates seriously injured and dying, what a shame.

Thinking of the purpose of this mission again, Gonpo took a deep breath, stood up suddenly and said, "Your Majesty, to tell you the truth, Zanpu sent us to Tang Dynasty this time because he received a letter from the Turkic Khan. letter."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became tense.

Li Shimin said with a calm face, "Oh? Tubo and Turks are thousands of miles apart, do they want to form an alliance?"

Gonpo took out a letter from his bosom, and presented it with both hands: "This is the original letter. The letter is in Tubo. For your convenience, I have translated it into Chinese. The Chinese in Tubo came to translate."

Gao Quan handed the letter to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin looked at the letter, at first he was very indifferent, but gradually his expression became dignified, and in the end, even a trace of killing intent emerged.

He has been a soldier for half his life, and he has killed countless times. His majesty is like the sea, and his aura is so powerful that Gong Po's complexion changes. He feels like a sword is in his neck, and he dare not breathe.

Even the young Master Fan, who had been empowered by the Yang God, frowned and heard a faint dragon chant.

The Dragon Qi in Taiji Palace seemed to feel the emperor's anger, and became more violent, turning into an invisible coercion, covering everyone.

However, Li Shimin is a young and promising emperor after all, he suppressed his anger forcibly, sneered, and said, "Jieli Khan speaks loudly!"

Gonpo bit the bullet and said: "Your Majesty, Jili Khan invited me, Tubo, to send troops to attack Datang together, forming a pincer attack from north to south, and promised that after the destruction of Datang, the world will be divided with the Yangtze River as the boundary, and the land south of the Yangtze River will be divided. , Give them all to Tubo!"

As soon as this remark came out, some courtiers of the Tang Dynasty present were shocked.

These are officials from the Ministry of Rites. According to the rules, when entertaining envoys from foreign countries, they must be accompanied by officials from the Ministry of Rites.

At this moment, the officials from the Ministry of Rites were talking in low voices, with a trace of panic mixed in their voices.

"We may not be able to win with a Turk. If we add Tubo, we will be under the enemy, it will be bad!"

"Fortunately, the Tubo envoys brought this letter. It seems that they don't want to break the covenant with Datang."

"Not necessarily, I think they want to take advantage of the opportunity to open their mouths, so as to get some benefits from us!"

……

All the officials were shocked, but Li Shimin was the only one who sat firmly in the Golden Palace.

He raised his eyebrows slightly, and his voice was calm, as if what he was facing was not a desperate threat from the enemy, but a fallen leaf, a speck of floating dust.

"Sounds good. If I were you, I would definitely agree."

Gonpo was startled, he couldn't say what he had prepared for a while, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty...why didn't he play his cards according to the routine?

Is he really not scared at all?

Li Shimin looked at him leisurely, and said with a sneer, "Why, do you want to see me panicked, and then beg Tubo not to send troops?"

"This this……"

Gonpo was overwhelmed when he said what he was thinking, and even his face was hot.

Li Shimin sighed suddenly, raised the wine glass in his hand, and spilled it on the ground, with a sad look in his eyes.

Gonpo was confused by his behavior.

"Alas for the three armies, alas for my great Tang son, if they hadn't fought bloody battles in Eyang Ridge, I'm afraid I would really have your wish today."

Just when Gongbu was puzzled, there was an urgent report from outside, and it was urgent for eight hundred miles.

"Report!!!"

The messenger had been running for several days and nights, his lips were pale, his hair was disheveled, his eyes were bloodshot, but there was a high spirit in them.

Li Shimin ordered him to enter the palace and tell the army's urgent report in public.

"Your Majesty, General Li Jing, the head of the army, attacked Eiyangling on the eve of the fourth day, and won a complete victory. He killed [-] enemies, injured [-] enemies, captured horses, and countless luggage. Now the morale is high, and the entire army is on standby. With an order from His Majesty, you can continue to march northward, heading straight to Yinshan Mountain!"

As soon as this remark came out, the officials were excited.

"Okay, okay, General Li is worthy of being my famous general in the Tang Dynasty, this battle is really fun!"

"Let's see if the Turkic people dare to be arrogant, and dare to come to my Tang Dynasty to rob again?"

Someone also showed worry and whispered: "This is just a small victory, will Ji Li Khan become angry?"

"Hehe, what are you afraid of? You see that His Majesty is calm and calm, and he must have thought of all countermeasures long ago!"

……

Hearing the news that Li Jing attacked Eyang Ridge at night and won a complete victory, the envoys of Tubo showed expressions of disbelief.

Turkic is currently the most powerful country, with a frightening cavalry army. Turkic soldiers grew up on horseback since they were young. They are brave and sturdy, and they are skilled in bow and horse.

At that time, Shibi Khan of Turkic led [-] cavalry to go south to kill Yanmen Pass, trapping Emperor Sui Yang inside.

Of the 41 cities in Yanmen, 39 were captured by the Turkic army in less than ten days, which shows the prosperity of its troops.

But now the famous Turkic people were... defeated by Datang?

Although it was only a small defeat, it also broke the myth that the Turks were invincible in the past ten years.

Gongbu originally thought that this was a play that Li Shimin had enacted for him, but on second thought he vetoed it. Such a big event would surely spread all over the world quickly, and there was no way to deceive him.

"Your Majesty, aren't you afraid of offending Jiri Khan?"

Kampot asked.

Li Shimin glanced at him, but his calm voice had an indescribable arrogance.

"Then let him come."

"Datang is by no means a fish on someone else's chopping board. Every inch of my land in Datang doesn't mind being stained red with the blood of the enemy!"

Gonpo's heart trembled.

After a pause, Li Shimin looked at the group of Tubo envoys, his gaze was as sharp as a sword, and no one dared to look at him.

He suddenly smiled, as if he was joking casually.

"Speaking of fish, I have heard for a long time that the fish in Tubo is the most delicious. Maybe one day, I will be able to step on the snow-capped mountains and taste the dragon fish in the holy lake?"
