MTL - The Human Emperor-Chapter 8 Turkic peace!
This remark immediately attracted everyone's attention, and in an instant, everyone looked at it.
After seeing a small red sandalwood wine table not far away, a figure of Yuyu Xuanang applauded with applause. When he looked closely, his costume was obviously different from Datang, with a strong exotic style.
Behind him, there are a few people who are similar to his dress style, and it is the envoys of various countries who participated in the Spring Rain Banquet.
When the court officials heard these words, they laughed and said nothing. Because the Hu people are not fluent in Chinese, they rhetorically exaggerated when they praised, but all the ministers in the hall knew what he meant.
Seeing that everyone looked over, the Hu did not sit down, but waited for the few "thundering drums" performers in Linde Hall to leave, not panic, with the gift of Turk, slowly Emperor Tang of the Tang Dynasty towards the main seat of the Linde Hall:
"Turkish great Han Asuna accounted for the great prince Asuna Cui, congratulations to the Tang Dynasty forever!"
For a moment, all the ministers looked a little stunned.
This spring rain feast, the envoys of the various countries are included, and the Asturian Prince of Turkistan is also among them. However, this was just a pure banquet party, pure entertainment, and no one knows this great Turkic prince. Why did it suddenly appear at this time.
Not only that, the relationship between Turk and Datang is now tense, and years of battles have become a confidant in the north of Datang. This great prince has a special status, and his words and deeds will have a special relationship.
——In fact, it is surprisingly enough that the first heir of Turkic Khan will appear in Datang!
In an instant, many ministers in the hall frowned.
But Shi Nacui looked as usual.
"Ashina was born in a wasteland and has never seen such a rhythm. Such a grand event. Thank you Emperor Tang for allowing Ashina to see it. It is really an eye-opener! Without a word, Ashina walked thousands of miles and was ordered to come to Datang!"
"In addition, Ashina also wishes Long live Long live Long live the Tang Emperor!"
Asuna didn't pay attention to everyone, while speaking, while respectfully bowed to the Tang Emperor again, his manner looked elegant and graceful, not like a man from a wild Turkic land.
"The great prince is more courteous, and the prince likes it, indicating that at least Datang has not lost his hospitality!"
Tang Huang sat high and waved his hand, said lightly.
The visitor is a guest, regardless of the relationship between Datang and Turkic, at least the Turkic prince behaves decently.
"The Spring Rain feast, the Tang Dynasty enjoys the whole country, and Ashina is also willing to take this opportunity to send a congratulatory gift to His Majesty the Tang Emperor!"
"This time when I went to Datang, Ashina actually gave the order of the Turkic Khan. He came to peace talks with Datang and settled his previous grievances. I also hope that Datang and Turke will make good friends forever!"
As soon as the words fell, the expressions of the servants were stunned, and they were stunned. In an instant, the needle in the Linde Hall was audible.
In the banquet disaster, Li Taiyi, who kept his eyes closed and nostalgic, opened his eyes instantly, and a pair of fierce eyes looked at the opposite Turkic prince.
Spring rain feast!
Asuna!
Peace talks!
The big event in memory is finally here!
This is the key to "Thunderbolt"! It is also the turning point of Datang's destiny!
At that moment, Li Taiyi's eyes narrowed slightly, watching the great prince burst into a chill.
On the other side, Asuna continued:
"The battle between the Turks and the Hans has actually a long history. In the final analysis, it came from both sides' lack of understanding and mistrust. Hundreds of years ago, both the Great Qin Dynasty and the Han Dynasty of China and the Turks killed the Turkic steppe and the Turks. The casualties are heavy, so China and Turkey have always been regarded as the enemy."
"However, after so many years of battle between the two sides, although the Turks have won or lost on the surface, Datang is not a weak country after all, and the Turks also suffered heavy casualties. Many of the once fertile land of waterweed cannot be grazed."
"Many mothers have lost their children, their sons have lost their fathers, their families cannot be reunited, and their horses and horses have suffered a great deal of loss. Presumably, your majesty also knows that not long ago, a snowstorm occurred on our grassland, and many cattle and sheep died from freezing. Many herders are hungry and cold, and the war continues!"
"Datang believes that the Turkic Empire will definitely invade the south, and we Turks have always believed that the Tangs will, like Daqin, go deep into the grassland like the Han Dynasty, so that we will be expelled from our homes and grasslands again. This is a misunderstanding and misunderstanding between the two sides. "
"But in the next time, I have been educated in the Tang Dynasty since I was a child. I admire the elegance and culture of Datang. In the future, if I succeed in the next place, I will definitely make friends with Datang Yongshi."
"In fact, I have been persuading Father Khan for so many years, including telling the people in Father Khan that they love peace and have no idea about the prairie."
"I know there are doubts in Emperor Tang's heart, but in fact, for so many years, the father and emperor have long had peace in the heart of peace talks, but it was only because of their face, it was not easy to take the initiative."
Asuna stopped, and then said:
"More than that, this time during the trip to the Tang Dynasty, Father Khan also ordered Ashi Nacui to bring a Turkic gem to the Tang Emperor to show his sincerity!"
"And I am willing to compensate 100,000 cattle and sheep, 8,000 horses and 100,000 gold, and ask Datang to forgive me!"
As soon as the voice fell, Ashina raised her hand and immediately took out a paper that pressed Phnom Penh, put her hands on it, and looked sincere.
Obviously, what he has in hand is a draft agreement in Turkic, Tang, bilingual!
"boom!"
Seeing this scene, the ministers in Linde Hall finally boiled.
The Turks were willing to negotiate, and they also brought out Turkic treasures, 100,000 heads of cattle and sheep, 8,000 horses of war horses, and 100,000 gold compensation to Datang, which has never happened before.
"The Turkic Empire wants peace? Is this true, really?"
"It's not wrong. They even sent the great prince who inherited the Khan position. If it is not true peace talks, will it be like this?"
"For so many years, the warfare, especially the war with the Turks, has consumed much money, material, and manpower that the empire does not know! Now the Turks are willing to negotiate peace, which is a good thing!"
"If there is a truce, it will not only reduce the taxation and salvation of the people, but also allow the people to return to peaceful life."
...
In the Linde Hall, the group of ministers heard the words, and their faces were suddenly full of joy.
Two hundred years ago, Turks suddenly emerged, extending the Western Territories, and then quickly swallowed and expanded. They were gradually valued by various countries. Moreover, each Turkic Khan was ambitious and expanded the territory of Turki several times.
War is cruel and ruthless, no one likes war, and most of the joys and sorrows and separation of life and death are related to war, and the people also hate war.
Turkic compensation is still second!
If they really come to peace, this is definitely the best news in this spring rain banquet, which also means that the people of Li Min in Datang can return to the peaceful life in the past!
However, just as everyone in Linde Hall became more and more happy, and when there was a lot of discussion, after the small sandalwood table under the right side of Emperor Tang, Li Taiyi's expression was drinking alone, and his eyes became colder and colder.
Talking nonsense!
The generous speech of this Turkic prince may deceive other people in the palace, but he cannot deceive him!
If the Turks really wanted to reconcile, Li Taiyi would like to see it succeeded, but the real situation is simply not the case.
In the history he understood, it was precisely because of the credibility of the Turkic peace in the Spring Rain Banquet, the weight of the 100,000 cattle and sheep, 8,000 war horses, 100,000 gold, and the weight and sincerity of the so-called Turkic treasures. Datang collapsed and could not be saved!
The Turks chose the right time!
In the successive years of the Datang War, the national power was empty, and the people were hurting the wealth. The people had already begun to wear out wars.
In particular, the Minister of Civil Affairs of the DPRK and the Inner Republic, the opposition to the war was particularly fierce. In the past few years, the daily requests for a truce and peace talks have been piled up and submitted to the Tang Emperor.
Peace of mind!
The peace talks of the Turkic prince is definitely a rain for the Chinese and Turkish people.
fact--
Li Taiyi's eyes glanced over the hall, and he saw Tang Emperor looking down at the Turkic congress and documents submitted. It was a tad, he looked at it carefully, and there was a trace of hesitation.
Obviously, even the father and emperor were vaguely interested in the Turkic proposals, and had begun to weigh the pros and cons of reconciling with the Turks.
In an instant, Li Taiyi's expression was solemn.
Obviously, under the influence of the ministers and the opposition, it was like the father emperor's heart also had a truce!
This is by no means a good thing!
The only thing that is fortunate is that Li Taiyi knew that the father emperor was never a faint monarch. Even if there was a truce in his heart, involving the country's society and the people, the father emperor would never make a decision.
"General Wei, what do you think?"
I don't know how long after that, the court officials were still full of joy. When there was a lot of discussion, the Tang Emperor, who had not spoken, began to speak, his voice rumbled through the entire Linde Hall.
All of a sudden, there was a sudden silence in Linde Hall, everyone stopped and looked over.
I saw that not far from Li Taiyi, a tall and burly figure stood up suddenly, and he showed a majestic momentum in the battlefield for a long time, which was daunting. It was Wei Yuanzhong, the general manager of the Lingwu Dao march.
And he was also appointed by the Tang Emperor to the north to block the "Dinghai God Needle" on the Turkic border.
The prairie in the north, where the Turkic empire was strong and strong, is even more prosperous, and even exceeds any period in history. If it were not for Wei Yuanzhong, General Wei, and the other two empires, the most important "Dinghai God Needle" repeatedly blocked the Turks at critical moments. The northern part of Datang may have fallen behind.
In the empire, this General Wei definitely has a lot of weight.
This is why the Tang Emperor would ask him.
"This--"
Wei Yuanzhong's eyes showed a hesitant look:
"Your Majesty, the minister has fought against the Turks for many years, countless wars of all sizes, countless wars and military affairs, the minister is quite good at it, but this is a political thing..., the minister does not understand too much, only the minister, whether it is Peace is war, it’s a big thing, it’s best to be cautious and think twice."
Wei Yuanzhong said at the end, he looked very respectful to the Emperor Tang in the hall.
Wenchen ruled the country and the generals were on the sidelines. Wei Yuanzhong was extremely good at military art. He fought bravely on the battlefield to kill enemies. He was fearless in life and death.
Chaotang is not a battlefield. Force is useless here, and from martial arts to culture, especially when it comes to participating in political affairs, it can be said that there is a huge gap in the middle.
On the other side, Li Taiyi saw Wei Yuanzhong's hesitation and immediately understood.
Wei Yuanzhong battled enemies on the battlefield and loved the soldiers under his command. Whenever soldiers died in battle, they inevitably carried the soldier’s relics to the door to comfort their relatives. This was widely praised among the people.
The Turkic people took advantage of Wei Yuanzhong's love for the people, so he deliberately chose to come to Datang to discuss peace at this time.
Thinking of this, Li Taiyi's gaze turned to Ashi Nacui, not far away, becoming colder.
At this time, Ashina Cui didn't even notice Li Taiyi. He looked at Wei Yuanzhong's reaction, and the corner of his mouth slightly evoked a slightly imperceptible arc, and his heart burst into pride.
Things are so smooth!
As long as he pushes the waves further, he can sign a peace agreement with Xu Wei for a while.
After they coaxed Datang to hand over the important place, and then designed to kill Wei Yuanzhong who blocked their attack, it would not be long before Datang would become a Turkic bag!
More than Datang, wait for their Turks to prepare according to law, and then coax Ussang, Goguryeo and other countries to sign a treaty, and finally, Turki will become the only country in the world!
And when Asuna was proud and sneered in her heart, suddenly, a crisp and loud young voice rang in Linde Hall.
"Father and Emperor, the children have something to say!"
Hearing this voice, the huge Linde Hall suddenly fell silent. Everyone suddenly looked at Li Taiyi, frowning, and looked inexplicably.
"The country's major events are indispensable. What are the three princes doing together?"
All the ministers frowned slightly.
It's not a cold day to freeze three feet. Although the three princes have cleared their suspicions in the main hall before, it is not easy to change the thinking of the servants.
After glancing at it, Li Taiyi naturally understood what they were thinking, but Li Taiyi didn't care. His body was straight, his eyes were not squinted, his expression was as serious as ever, and he said to Tang Huang Gong:
"Father and emperor, children and ministers recognize that it is not that simple. The Turkic forces, troops, and manpower are all several times stronger than our country. Even the battles have an advantage. The Turks have always been belligerent, advocating the strong, and adhering to their past. The style of behavior can obviously be seized, why do you take the initiative to sum?"
"Isn't it a little weird?"
As soon as these words came out, almost everyone in Linde Hall couldn't help frowning and thinking.
Even Asuna, the first prince of Turks, jumped sharply in her heart and immediately turned to look at Li Taiyi.
"In the war with Turkic, Datang has always been at a disadvantage. Datang is dominated by infantry, Turk is dominated by cavalry, and Yinshan is a region of Pingchuan. If it is not the military base of Yinshan, I am afraid that it will have been killed by Turke. "
"More than that, if the Turks have the heart to attack all the way south, capture the key points, and contain the Datang, Datang's manpower, material resources, and financial resources will be consumed violently like a bottomless hole, and it will not be long before the Datang national power is consumed."
"In addition to taxation and salvation, the people complained about the sky..."
"If you are Turkic sweat, how would you choose?"
Li Taiyi said one word at a time. At that moment, he seemed to exude a majestic momentum that cannot be ignored.
Hearing Li Taiyi's words, it was like pouring a pour of cold water on it, and immediately calmed the agitated courtiers in the hall and became sober.
After all, it's dip
People in the government for decades, even if they don't like the three princes anymore, they have to admit that what he said really makes sense.
"Your Majesty, the three princes are right. The Turks have developed strongly in recent years, especially after Asnama sang in power. The Turks’ forces have directly attacked the Central Plains, attacking in one fell swoop, and disturbing the people of China and the borders. Take the initiative to negotiate?"
A minister dressed in a purple bureaucrat's uniform stood up from the small sandalwood wine table and bowed. It was Zhou Sheng, the Zhongshu Ling.
"Yeah, Your Majesty, the Turks took the initiative to show their favors, and they must not be so kind!"
"Think about it, if you want to say that they are credible in the next war, you must be cautious if you negotiate!"
...
In an instant, many ministers in the Linde Hall suddenly got up and spoke one after another.
Listening to the ministers, Emperor Tang's expression also changed slightly.
Seeing this scene, Li Taiyi raised his lips, knowing that his words worked.
"His Royal Highness, the Turkic peace, and the truce between the two countries. This is a great thing for the benefit of the people. Why did you get a taste in your mouth?"
And at this time, not far from Li Taiyi, a Sanpin official in a purple robe held his glass drunk and opened his mouth.
This purple robe official was sent by the second prince Li Chengyi. From the standpoint, it was originally unsatisfactory to see His Highness Three. Besides, because of the serious case of embezzlement of ink, Yu Shiduan Cao Shun Teng investigated him in his palace, so Li Taiyi was even more disgusted.
