The Tang Dynasty: The Concubine of the Holy Soldier

Chapter 684
Chapter 684
The ministers all understood that these were hidden secrets that Li Er could not mention.

After all, the previous Turks were too arrogant to openly ask Li Er to take his beloved Princess Changle to marry him.

For an old father, it is naturally very reluctant.

But for Li Er, he is not only Li Lizhi's father, he is also the emperor of the Tang Dynasty and the leader of 4000 million people.

Before facing the ruthless iron heels of the Turkic people, Li Er asked his daughter to go to marry him in order to choose the safety of 4000 million people.

It's hard to imagine how much determination Li Er has to make, and it's also hard to imagine how much psychological shadow Princess Changle will leave behind.

After the eldest son of East Turkic said this, he felt very troubled in his heart.

After all, the Turks forced the King of Tang to send his favorite Princess Changle to the Turks for marriage. This is a fact that neither the Tang Dynasty nor the Turks have forgotten.

"Now that I actually propose a marriage again, will Tang Wang directly become angry from embarrassment?"

The eldest son of East Turkic was very disturbed. After all, he sent so many tributes to Datang just to make Tang take Eastern Turkic into a vassal state.

This goal was naturally achieved, but what the prince of the East Turks could not bear was.

Western Turks cannot become a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty!Otherwise, the power of the East and West Turks on the grasslands will be evenly matched, and Datang will still ignore the East and West Turks.

In this case, the purpose of becoming a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty will be considered a failure.

The eldest son of the Eastern Turkic was also forced to do nothing. If Datang was not allowed to give the princess and marriage to the Eastern Turkic, then if the Western Turkic attacked the Eastern Turkic in the future, Datang would probably just ignore it.

But if the princess of King Tang married East Turkic, even if Western Turkic attacked Eastern Turkic at that time, Datang would not sit idly by.

And Li Er is also very hesitant now.

After all, it is very common for princesses to marry each other.

In the Han Dynasty, in order to seek peace between the Xiongnu and the Han Dynasty, the royal family would also allow many princesses to marry the Xiongnu.

But Li Er thought hesitantly: "I don't know which princess these Turkic people want to go to Turkic to marry. If it is Princess Changle, then I'm afraid..."

The ministers also began to speculate.

"It's normal for the Turkic people to want my princess from the Tang Dynasty to marry me. After all, the Eastern Turks must want to get the protection of the Tang Dynasty, so the best way is to marry. After all, the Holy Majesty's own daughter married and became a concubine. In the future, it will be regarded as a kinship relationship.”

"However, the incident of Princess Changle before was something that the Holy Majesty and the King of Beiliang did not want to mention. Now that these Turkic people say they want to get married, aren't they exposing the scars of the Holy Majesty and the King of Beiliang?"

"That's right, before these hateful Turkic barbarians forced the admiral's favorite Princess Changle to marry him, but the King of Beiliang stopped him, otherwise Princess Changle would not know if she would survive now..."

But Changsun Wuji cupped his hands and said, "My Majesty, I was persecuted by the Turks before the Tang Dynasty and asked Princess Changle to marry me. This is a national humiliation for everyone in the Tang Dynasty to be angry!"

The eldest son of East Turkic suddenly turned pale.

"Could it be that I have really committed a problem? Have I really touched the Nilin between the King of Tang and the King of Beiliang?"

"If that's the case, wouldn't the chance of being a vassal state that I had won so hard be lost in vain?"

The envoys of the Western Turks looked at the prince of the East Turks with a very snickering smile, and thought to themselves: "The prince of the East Turks is really greedy. He dared to propose a marriage with the king of Tang. Don't you know that I, the prince of the Turks, was so greedy?" Did you do anything to King Tang? It's simply too arrogant!"

"However, this is also good. As long as Tang Wang becomes angry on the spot, then he can take the opportunity to increase his reward, and has already sought the opportunity of Datang's vassal state."

"At that time, the people of Eastern Turks offended the king of Tang, so naturally they won't be asked by Tang. That is, isn't it true that the Turkic Grasslands are dominated by me in Western Turks?"

"Hahaha……"

The hearts of the envoys of the Western Turks were already happy to take off.

After Changsun Wuji said that the marriage is the national humiliation of the Tang Dynasty, he went on to say: "My lord, although my Tang Dynasty was forced by the Turks to let Princess Changle go to marry me, this is a national humiliation of my Tang Dynasty, but today is different from the past. Alright! If my Great Tang takes the initiative to make a marriage now, it is enough to show that I treat the vassal state as if I treat my own people in the Tang Dynasty! It is enough to make the surrounding small countries admire my Great Tang very much!"

"And it's enough to show that my Datang is full of courage! When the Turks were powerful, they asked me to marry each other! My Datang vowed to die!"

"Now when my Tang Dynasty is strong, the Turkic barbarians take the initiative to surrender to my Tang Dynasty. My Tang Dynasty readily accepts it, and then takes the initiative to marry the Turks. This undoubtedly does not show the demeanor of my Great Tang Dynasty!"

"Holy Master Mingjian!"

Changsun Wuji put down his hand respectfully, with full confidence in his heart.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Li Er's expression changed a little.

"That's right, my Great Tang was coerced into getting married before, but now the Turkic people surrendered to my Great Tang. If my Great Tang took the initiative to reward their elder sons and relatives, wouldn't it show that my Great Tang has extraordinary magnanimity?"

"And it can also set a precedent for the surrounding small countries. It is undoubtedly telling them that as long as they surrender to my Great Tang, my Great Tang will still treat you as if it were my own people!"

After Changsun Wuji's words, Li Er's heart was completely moved.

And the ministers behind him also followed the eldest grandson Wuji and said: "My lord, my Tang Dynasty is different from the past today. In the past, the Turks forced me to marry the Tang Dynasty, and my Datang swore to die, which is enough to show the bloodiness of my Tang Dynasty! Now The Turkic people took the initiative to surrender to our Great Tang, and my Great Tang took the initiative to reward their heirs and relatives, which is enough to show the magnanimity of my Great Tang! Holy Master Mingjian!"

"My Majesty, I feel that what Master Changsun said is very true. As a big country in the Tang Dynasty, we should naturally show our strength. When facing the surrender of these small countries, we should show the airs of the kingdom of heaven. ! Only in this way can we not be underestimated by the surrounding small countries! The holy lesson!"

"My lord, if my Great Tang can reward the heir of the Eastern Turks with marriage, it will undoubtedly show my great magnanimity. When enemies come, there are machetes, and when friends come, there are fine wines! Just like my Great Tang's hospitality. The way! Holy Master Mingjian!"

"My lord, if the two countries can make peace, it will undoubtedly be a way to promote exchanges between the two countries, and it can deepen the relationship between the two countries! My minister thinks it is very good! Please learn from me!"
