Rebirth of Tang Dynasty as a dad

Two days later, at the Great Court Meeting in the Tai Chi Hall, the emperor summoned envoys from various countries.

In previous years, every Shangyuan Festival, the surrounding small countries would send envoys to visit the Tang Dynasty to maintain the friendship between the two countries.

After all, apart from Datang, the handicraft manufacturing industry in other countries is extremely backward, and the source of almost all commodities depends on the export of Datang.

The surrounding small countries provided Datang with raw materials in exchange, such as livestock raised on the grasslands in exchange for Datang's grain, tea and other important materials.

However, this court meeting was obviously different from the previous ones. Emperor Li Er really felt what it means to come to court from all nations. From the attitudes of these small countries, he saw awe, awe from the heart, rather than the usual routine trade consultations in the past.

The Huihe envoys were the first to stand up and complimented: "My lord sent my servants to congratulate the Great Tang Dynasty on the great victory of destroying the country, and Huihe presented fifty carts of gifts.

In addition, in order to express the permanent friendship between Huihe and Datang, I Huihe would like to respect His Majesty the Emperor of Tang Dynasty as Tian Khan, be conferred by His Majesty Tian Khan, and pay tribute every year. "

The news of the Huihe envoy directly caused a sensation in the Taiji Hall, Tian Khan?Still accepting the canonization of Datang?Isn't this surrender in disguise?

Li Er laughed loudly, and was also very excited in his heart. Datang Tianwei finally managed to surrender the Siyi in his own hands. The Huihe King was afraid. Doing so would be no different from becoming a subordinate state of the Tang Dynasty.

"Okay, Datang accepts Huihe's friendship, and Huihe will always be Datang's closest friend." Li Er waved his hand and bestowed an extremely generous reward, because this Uighur was the first to stand up and support Datang .

The envoys of other countries were caught off guard by this news, especially Yuan Gaisu of Goguryeo, who wondered if the Huihe people were crazy?What day is Khan?Why don't you just propose merging into Datang?What a bunch of cowards who are afraid of death, spineless cowards.

However, among the envoys from other countries in the audience, except for Goguryeo, other countries, including Western Turks, dare not make bold claims that they can confront Datang head-on.

Therefore, with the Huihe people taking the lead, other people followed suit, especially some small countries in the Western Regions whose national power was not as good as Huihe, stepped forward to follow suit, respected the Emperor of Tang Dynasty as Heavenly Khan, and accepted the canonization of Tang Dynasty.

Including the tribal countries of Mohe, Khitan, and Shiwei from the east, these small countries are full of admiration for this superpower because of the prosperous trade with the Tang Dynasty in the east in the past year.

After the Western Regions, what everyone did not expect was that the Western Turkic envoy also took the initiative to stand up. This sick envoy wearing a bandage and a splint saluted with one hand. He also represented the Western Turkic and was willing to accept the canonization of the Tang Dynasty. This shocked everyone.

No way, Western Turks, that’s not comparable to those smaller countries in the Western Regions, and Huihe is not enough to look at in front of others. When it is the strongest, it can be compared to the existence of Eastern Turks, and it also shows submission?

Disabled envoy, are you serious?

In fact, Chu Mi made this decision after deliberation, and risked being scolded by the king when he went back, he followed suit and bowed his head.

After all, this damages the honor of the Western Turks, but Chu Mi has also seen the current situation clearly. All countries have surrendered, and the one who does not surrender must be stunned. Who wants to be a thorn in Datang's side?

Not to mention how powerful the West Turkic nation is, my family knows their own affairs. The Western Turkic Turks have just quelled chaos and stabilized for a year, and they are no match for the Tang Dynasty. Have you come to Chang'an to dance for others?

After weighing everything, the Western Turkic envoy decided to sell Datang as well, and try not to let Datang think about going to Western Turkic.

Seeing that the Western Turks surrendered, the deputy envoy Gaochang poked his prince beside him. The wound on Prince Gaochang's face had healed, and he had returned to his previous demeanor. Although he didn't want to, he still stood up to express Gaochang's submission. .

Li Er accepted it one by one, and seeing the boy who was still shouting in front of him a few days ago also bowed his head, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty can say that he has the feeling of mastering the world spontaneously.

When almost all the envoys bowed their heads to the Tang Emperor in the Taiji Hall, the only envoy from another country standing aside in the field looked very dazzling. He was the Goguryeo envoy from the east, the great opponent Lu Yuangaisu.

At this time, Yuan Gaisu's inner struggle has already made him regret coming to Datang in person. In his heart, Yuan Gaisu is a hero who looks down on the world, not to mention the emperor of the Tang Dynasty who has nothing to do with him, even his own monarch Gao Jian. All he sees is a raised puppet.

Just when he was in a daze and distracted, the servant Lao Gao gave a divine assist and shouted loudly: "The envoys of Goguryeo are here."

All the people in the Tai Chi Hall focused their eyes on Yuan Gaisu. Everyone wanted to take a look. This Goguryeo man is not knowledgeable. The Tang and Siyi have all surrendered, and you are the only one left. If you are not convinced, then wait. Datang's anger.

Of course, some old people have reservations about this. Sui Daye Emperor Yang Guang’s three expeditions to Goguryeo have all failed. As a lesson from the past, once the Tang Dynasty goes to war with Goguryeo, it may not be a good thing.

Sensing the gathering of light that attracted everyone's attention, Yuan Gaisu saw beads of sweat on his forehead. In a hurry, he stood up and bowed to the Emperor Datang and said loudly: "I, Goguryeo, would like to honor His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty as the Heavenly Khan." , by the canonization of Tian Khan."

Li Er shouted: "Okay!"

Then the Huihe envoys took the lead in shouting: "Wannian of the Tang Dynasty!"

All the envoys from other countries shouted slogans. As for how many of them were against their will, I don't know, and no one cares.

Because at this time, all the warriors in the Taiji Hall felt the true power of the Tang Dynasty. Everyone looked at the 38-year-old Emperor of the Tang Dynasty on the dragon chair. Things that have never been done.

After the Siyi envoys applauded, all the warriors also chanted Tang Wannian. For a while, the prestige in the Taiji Hall was extremely strong, and the aura directly infected the guards of the forbidden army outside.

Yuan Gaisu looked at the high-ranking Emperor of Tang, his eyes were full of envy and envy, this is the real monarch, compared with this, Gao Jian is hardly even a slave.

At this moment, a seed was planted in the heart of this Goguryeo official. Perhaps since he was forced to bow his head to the Tang emperor, he had already thought about the countermeasures for returning home.

After all nations came to the court and the Taiji Hall collectively sang their praises, Li Er thought there was nothing to do and was about to announce a banquet, but at this time the Western Turkic envoy took the initiative to stand up and said, "God Khan, my minister accepts the favor of our Western Turkic Khan." Please, come to Tian Khan to ask a noble princess of the Tang Dynasty to go back to be our queen, and ask Tian Khan for permission."

Um?Among the officials, Tang Jian's beard twitched suddenly, and he stared fixedly at the envoy from the Western Turks who had lost his hand, thinking that this guy was cunning, how dare he betray him?

Chapter 332

I have to say that the timing of the Western Turkic envoy's appointment was too good. The Tang Dynasty just accepted the friendship of the neighboring countries. Now that the neighboring countries propose marriage, it is time to show their friendship. If the emperor Li Er agrees, it will be the icing on the cake. Jiaxi, if you refuse, you are slapping yourself in the face, making everyone think that the so-called friendship is just empty words.

Faced with the sudden attack by the Western Turkic envoys, Li Er pondered. Just now because of the excitement of the coming of all nations, he almost pushed him to nod and agree, but his reason told him that all his daughters were his own. ?is this necessary?

In his heart, Li Er is an extremely powerful person. This kind of person is often the most disgusted by other people's coercion, so he is a little impatient when he sees the Western Turkic envoy at this time.Waiting for me here?

Seeing the silence of the Tai Chi Palace, the secret of the Western Turks, the emperor hesitated, so he added a fire and shouted: "I, the Great Khan of the Western Turks, admired the Tang Dynasty for a long time. , only the noble princess of the Tang Dynasty can be worthy of being the queen of our Western Turks, please God Khan for permission.

The Western Turks are willing to offer a generous gift of a hundred chariots and five thousand horses as a betrothal gift for marrying a princess. "

What? ? ?

Five thousand horses?Western Turks are going to spend a lot of money!Everyone was impressed by their generosity.

At this moment, Tang Jian, Minister of Honglu Temple, stood up, "I'm afraid the envoys of the Western Turks were joking, just now you respected my Majesty as the Khan of Heaven, did you just use this opportunity to ask us for the princess?

It really doesn't make sense, if this is the case, so many countries present will marry our princesses, how can there be so many princesses in my Tang Dynasty who marry outside?What do you think our princesses are?Was it born for you to share? "

Wang Si, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, said: "Duke Ju is careful in his words, discuss matters as they are, and don't insult the princesses."

Tang Jian was much older than Wang Si, shaking his beard and dissatisfied: "How dare the old man be disrespectful to the princess, Wang Shangshu, do you think that the Western Turks took the opportunity to blackmail you?"

Tang Jian's words touched the heart of the Tang emperor, and Li Er thought, it is not easy for me to have a daughter. After raising her for so many years, she must not be raised by outsiders like you.

Wang Si opened his mouth and said: "The two countries have been in harmony with each other since ancient times, and it is not considered more polite, but as Duke Ju said, there are not so many princesses of the right age in Tang Dynasty to marry out."

At this moment, Yuan Gaisu of Goguryeo stepped forward, "Everyone, it is his family's business for the Western Turkic court to marry the princess of the Tang Dynasty. Although we are envious, we dare not follow suit, so please rest assured Tian Khan. "

Chu Mi respectfully said: "Yes, I, the Western Turkic Khan, is the new king, and there is still a shortage of queens. The Tang Dynasty only needs a princess of the right age. We dare not be greedy."

This Tang Jian is in a hurry, this guy is too shameless, obviously you are in collusion, are you forcing us to marry our daughter?

"Your Majesty, it is absolutely impossible. The Great Tang Tianwei surrenders everywhere. Marrying a daughter and getting married is a policy of bowing your head. There is no precedent in the Tang Dynasty for marrying a foreigner and marrying a princess. You must not make such an opening." Tang Jian stood in the middle and faced the emperor Li Er pleaded.

"Mr. Ju's remarks are biased. What's the way to bow your head? It's obvious that a small country admires me, Tang Tianwei, and respectfully proposes marriage. We should accept the friendship of neighboring countries and marry daughters to make friends. This is the way to rejuvenate the country. It has been done in ancient times, old minister. I think it's a good thing." Wei Ting, the official censor, said loudly.

The Western Turkic envoys were secretly delighted that there were indeed Tang officials who supported this matter.

Then several ministers stood up to express their support for the marriage. Tang Jian was a little helpless, and asked for help from a few familiar people. Among them, Wei Zheng thought for a while and stood up and said: "Although the marriage can deepen the diplomatic relations between the two countries, if Tang Jian agrees The request from the Western Turks seems to be treating other countries favorably, so I think it is impossible."

For a while, the two gangs were at odds, Emperor Li Er thought to himself, he forgot to call Du Shaoqing to the court meeting, it was too messy.
