Chapter 241: The Envoy Is Humiliated and Left the Tang Road
"Please make the decision for the foreign ministers!"
Seeing Li Fangchen's leisurely and contentment, Lu Dongzan and the other two felt very resentful.
Li Fangchen pretended not to know and bowed to Li Chengqian opposite him.
Li Chengqian nodded slightly and compared a gesture that only a few brothers could understand. Don’t go behind the scenes, see you in the East Palace!
Li Tai snorted, obviously feeling unhappy about the behavior of the two, and whispered: "Second brother, why are you so kind to him?"
Li Fangchen couldn't figure it out, is Li Tai jealous?
"All of you brothers."
"I'm not worthy of the prince's brother!"
Li Fangchen frowned. He knew that Li Tai and the prince had something wrong with each other and were fighting for the throne.
At first, I thought it was arranged by Li Shimin. After all, the Li family’s way of raising heirs like raising a gu, so he couldn’t interfere or make a decision.
But he didn't want the love that had been together for so many years to end.
"I will discuss this matter after the court meeting!"
There was something that had not been resolved before us. Lu Dongzan's crying was still echoing in the court, as if Li Fangchen had become a person who had left the trouble at the beginning and end.
Li Shimin raised his hand and shouted, "Enough! What a moral character to cry and make a fuss!"
Only then did the voices of those people crying, and at the same time, their eyes were filled with hope.
"Yu'er, what are you going to explain this?"
Li Fangchen made a list and said, "It's true, but the sons are not as exaggerated as their words. They just made some jokes with them. What's more, they were rude first, and the sons are still the title of king. Is it not as contemptuous as those officials in Chang'an City who gave gifts?"
Li Shimin said with a little hesitation: "Yu'er, how can you explain this?"
Li Fangchen sneered: "I visited sixteen officials of the fourth rank and above in two days to seek the intention of persuading my father to marry a princess. Such a plan would definitely have bad intentions, let alone!"
What's more? Everyone couldn't help but be curious.
"What's more, why didn't they come to my Qin Palace to give gifts? Don't you know that I am the person who lacks the most money in Chang'an?"
Li Shimin was amused and crying. If he really believed this, he would be a fool!
Yu'er's words were filled with dissatisfaction with these foreign ministers in Tubo. She bribed me, officials in Tang. Is this really what they should do for a marriage proposal?
Lu Dongzan was also stupid. He didn't expect the King of Qin to say that. Isn't this the same as a breakup?
In this way, how can we marry a princess again?
If the purpose of this trip is not achieved, then how will Zanpu punish them after returning to Tubo?
"Your Majesty, we Zanpu really want to marry a Tang Dynasty princess to show that the two countries have good friendship. There is no other intention. Please give us a clear understanding!"
Li Fangchen snorted coldly, "Do you know that the Turks marry the princess? Why didn't they marry a daughter, but wanted to marry me, Princess Tang? Where is his intention?"
"Foreign minister...foreign minister..." Lu Dongzan's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he didn't know how to express it for a while.
"I can't say it? Then should I tell you this king for you?"
Li Fangchen walked to Lu Dongzan and looked at the other party condescendingly, "Since ancient times, Han women have all dowry items. I am afraid that the princess' dowry is for the sake of that princess?"
Lu Dongzan kowtowed to the ground, and others could not see if there was any change on his face.
Li Fangchen continued to talk to himself, and at this time almost everyone's eyes were already gathering on him.
"Wang I think about it, the Four Books and Five Classics, the Etiquette and Laws, the Farming Equipment, and even the gold, silver and treasures you offer!"
"Your Highness, the foreign minister..."
"Shut up! Did I let me speak?"
Lu Dongzan wanted to use a knife to insert it into the body of the person in front of him. Why did the Tang Dynasty have such a madman?
Tubo really wants to repair the relationship with the Tang Dynasty!
Li Fangchen sneered again, "Of course, these can be bought in the market. So what are you trying to do as a dowry? I thought about it all, only some new things that I have released in the Tang Dynasty in the years."
Li Shimin narrowed his eyes slightly. There are too many new things? Some can help Tubo strengthen its country, and some can help Tubo strengthen its army!
"Your Majesty clearly understands that Tubo has no intention!"
Lu Dongzan was anxious. If you continue to say this, it would be better to start a war between the Tang Dynasty and the Tubo!
"Oh, by the way, many books in the palace cannot be found in the market. If you really send them to you, Tubo will probably become the sect leader of the Tang Dynasty in a hundred years!"
What Li Fangchen meant was to warn those present not to underestimate others.
"Your Highness is an exaggeration, right?" said one of the civil servants.
Li Fangchen glared at the other party, "A man who waves his hands and makes a move is worthy of talking to me?"
The fourth-rank admonishment man is indeed not a high-ranking official, and it is really not enough to see Li Fangchen.
Li Shimin's voice was a little low, "Yu'er, how can I explain this?"
"So what if there is no great Confucian teaching? The whole nation is willing to learn. My father believes that Tubo can become the sect leader of my Tang Dynasty in the future!"
He hit the hammer with one blow, even if Tangren is proud, he will be worried at this moment.
The whole nation is willing to learn. This statement cannot be done in the Tang Dynasty, but it does not mean that it cannot be done in other small countries. If this is true, I am afraid that other countries will be full of talents, and my Tang Dynasty will eventually be destroyed by blinding myself!
"Your Majesty! It's unfair!"
Lu Dongzan dared to swear, Tubo really didn't expect this level. After the King of Qin finished speaking, he couldn't help but wonder if Zanpu was the plan?
Don’t say that you are not broad enough, let alone the spiritual "divine song" that is a matter of personal opinion.
Li Fangchen's thoughts were very simple. What he gave to others was only second-class, something that was eliminated by the Tang Dynasty!
Want to learn the best one? Unless you are a Tangren, you will never allow it!
If one day, Tubo used the things taught by the Tang Dynasty to attack the Tang Dynasty, who should take the blame?
"Retreat the court and discuss the matter of marriage with you later!"
Li Shimin was in a state of confusion, and every word Li Fangchen said was reasonable.
The Tang people's gifts are of good news, and they pay attention to both coming and going. The things they give to others are generally the ones they value the most.
Perhaps no one cares about the true value of this thing.
But since ancient times, the habit of ritual exchanges has long been engraved in the depths of their souls.
When other countries worship the sect leader, the gifts they can take back from the Tang Dynasty are often dozens of times the gifts they give.
At the beginning, it was to demonstrate national strength and express the dignity of the sect leader.
But now, because of Qin Wangyu's words, all officials are thinking, is it right or wrong to do so?
The Minister of Rites has begun to recall whether there were some of the most precious things from the Tang Dynasty among the gifts given to various small countries before.
What is the most precious?
Knowledge! Inheritance!
Is Heshi Bi the best treasure since ancient times really his own value?
It is more of a kind of inheritance and a kind of faith he represents!
Now, the Tang Dynasty is giving away real "treasures" to others.
If we really say to what Qin Wangyu said, other countries follow the examples and the whole nation will learn from it, then everything will be full of variables in the future.
Maybe some people will say, if you give it, you will give it. Who can tell the future of things?
That's wrong. Even if Li Shimin doesn't say anything at this moment, those great scholars have to consider it.
The blood of Yanhuang has been flowing since ancient times, so no matter how powerful the internal fighting is, when facing foreign enemies, they will share the same hatred against the enemy.
Because they know that even if they break the bones, they are always fighting for it.
If outsiders intervene, everything will change, and what passed down from our ancestors may be terrified.
As the culprits, they have to face the responsibilities and contempt of countless descendants in their future generations!
