Chapter 296: Tubo is coming to the Tang Dynasty to snatch the princess

"The Marquis of Zhao County, I'm happy to have a new residence and my wedding is coming soon. I'll congratulate you first!" As soon as I saw Zhao Chen, Li Chengqian bowed and smiled to Zhao Chen.
In words, there is no similar conspiracy in the court.
Before, Zhao Chen had never observed Li Chengqian carefully before, and it was the first time that he had officially met.
Compared to that fat Li Tai, Li Chengqian is still better looking.
As soon as Li Chengqian finished speaking, Zhao Chen saw a playful smile on Li Tai's face.
It seems that the two sons in Lao Li’s family are really not that worry-free.
With a word to Li Chengqian, he invited the two of them to sit down.
In fact, it doesn’t take the two of them to say it clearly. Zhao Chen also knows why they came to him.
Li Chengqian was thinking about his position every time, and the people in his hands were cleaning up for him several times.
This made him hate himself while eager to get his help.
Although Li Tai didn't say it, he must have thought of it.
Otherwise, Chai Lingwu would not have appeared at the same time outside the Duke of Wei's Mansion that day.
But Zhao Chen didn't have the heart to care about their affairs.
"Zhao County Marquis, I apologize to you for the misunderstandings I had made in the past." Surprisingly, Li Chengqian did not directly establish a relationship with Zhao Chen, but instead apologized to Zhao Chen first.
Li Tai curled his lips and said with a smile: "Marquis of Zhao County, my father appointed you as the gentleman of Chang'an Academy. That is Li Tai's gentleman. If there is any academic confusion in the future, Tai will definitely come to disturb the gentleman.

"Sir, please don't bother Li Tai."
Li Tai's words were obviously stronger than Li Chengqian, otherwise he would not have coaxed the emperor around.
This immediately found an excuse to often come to Zhao Chen's house in the future.
Even Li Chengqian, who was standing beside him, was stunned and his face looked a little ugly.
The words in my mouth were also choked in my throat, and I didn't know how to say them.
He is hard to say. Li Tai is right, and he will come here from time to time.
"In his position, he should do his own politics. If there is a study issue, he can ask anytime." Zhao Chen smiled slightly, looking down on Li Tai.
"Then I'm thankful for your help. Today, the academy starts, so there are not many students left. Mr. Zhao, brother, I'll go there first!" Li Tai said with a silly smile and turned around and left the house.
His purpose of coming here today has already succeeded.
There is no need to stay here.
He had read the joke about the prince for a long time, and he had long since lost that feeling.
As soon as Li Tai left, Li Chengqian naturally had no reason to stay here. He bowed to Zhao Chen and left as well.
"Zhao Chen, the King of Wei has been favored by His Majesty in the past two years, and now he is even more out of the rules. I am afraid that the court will not be at peace in the future!" Qin Huaiyu and Zhao Chen whispered.
Even he could see that the prince was incompatible with the King of Wei, what about the court officials in the hall?
...
The opening of Chang'an Academy was undoubtedly a major event in the Tang Dynasty.
This means that the academy, independent of the Imperial College, has been officially established today.
The selection of talents mastered by the aristocratic families has since had another way out.
Zhao Chen just went to take a look and was called into the palace by the emperor's edict.
Cheng Yaojin brought people here in person. Judging from this, the situation is very urgent.
As soon as he entered Ganquan Hall, Zhao Chen smelled a dangerous aura.
Old Li sat on the dragon couch, looking at Fang Xuanling and others in front of him with a blank expression.
There was a silence in Ganquan Hall, and even people could not hear their breath.
The eunuch and the emperor said that Zhao Chen was coming were trembling slightly.
What happened?
"Zhao Chen has seen Your Majesty!" Zhao Chen quickly walked to the center of the hall and bowed to Li Shimin and said.
Fang Xuanling and others heard the sound and turned to look at it, with a hint of expectation in their eyes.
The emperor raised his head and saw Zhao Chen standing in front of him.
"Zhao Chen, this is a military newspaper from Songzhou, look!" Li Shimin only said lightly, and the eunuch on the side quickly delivered a note to Zhao Chen.
With just one glance, Zhao Chen felt a little confused.
Songtsen Gampo of Tubo actually launched an attack on Songzhou of the Tang Dynasty at this time.
Battle of Songzhou!
If Zhao Chen remembers this war correctly, it should have happened two years later.
I didn't want to reach this time in advance!
Although all kinds of wars between the internal and external forces have never stopped since the founding of the Tang Dynasty.
Lao Li was so envious of the land in other countries.
Of course it's not just the land.
As a standard farmer, Lao Li never intends to let go of the population, cattle, sheep, treasures, etc. of neighboring countries.
But this time, not long after the Tang Dynasty wiped out Tuyuhun, it actually caused a small Tubo.
Zamp Songtsen Gamp from Tubo is good at abilities.
He succeeded to the throne at the age of thirteen. In recent years, he fought with each other from a distance and attacked nearby, and finally unified Tubo in the sixth year of Zhenguan.
Since the unification of Tubo, Songtsen Gampo was not ambiguous at all as the Tang Dynasty's neighbor of Tubo.
Envoys were sent to Tang several times.
On the surface, it is agreed that the two countries will be in harmony for generations and will not violate each other.
Even a few months ago, Lu Dongzan came here and was warmly received by the emperor.
Of course, only he knows whether Lu Dongzan is happy or unhappy when he returns.
The final reason for the Tubo war on the Tang Dynasty this time is that it must start with Lu Dongzan leading the mission back to Tubo.
Lu Dongzan lost all his face in front of Zhao Chen.
Although it sounds bad to say it, he couldn't hide it when facing Songtsen Gampo.
Zhao Chen, a teenager, let Lu Dongzan return in vain, but it was really furious that Songzan Gampo.
If it's like this, it's fine. Songtsen Gampo feels angry, so he has to hold it in his stomach.
Who knew that Li Shimin sent an envoy to Tubo to visit again this time, but his words were gone.
Because I saw Lu Dongzan frequently get defeated in front of Zhao Chen before, and Songzan Gampo held a banquet to entertain him.
If you drink too much of this wine, you will not have a way to speak.
On the day of the banquet, the envoy from the Tang Dynasty who entered Tubo held up his wine glass, got drunk, and muttered in front of Songtsen Gampo.
Let’s talk about the Turks, Tuyuhun, and Goguryeo, their leaders and monarchs who were outside Tubo and had married the princess of the Tang Dynasty.
But only Zanpu of Tubo has never married the Tang Dynasty, and there is a bit of joke in his words.
Songtsen Gampo kicked the table over and held the whip and opened Wushuang at the envoy of the Tang Dynasty.
When Lu Dongzan went to the Tang Dynasty this time, one of them was to marry the Tang Dynasty princess for him, Songtsen Gampo.
But who knew that when I met Zhao Chen, I didn’t take any advantage, but I was slapped in the face several times.
Now this damn Tang envoy dares to mention this matter in front of him.
If a tiger doesn’t show off its power, thinks he is Mickey Mouse?
Turks, Tuyuhun, Goguryeo!
They were all betrothed the princess, but he, Tubo Zamp Songtsen Gampo!
He doesn’t need to say more about what the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty means!
Songtsen Gampo felt that he had been severely insulted.
Songtsen Gampo wants to take revenge, and he must take revenge fiercely.
Or, after several years of hard work, Songtsen Gampo felt that he could do it!
The Songzhou War, which was supposed to break out two years later, broke out early because of Zhao Chen.
On December 25, the ninth year of Zhenguan, Songtsen Gampo led 150,000 troops to the Songzhou City on the border of the Tang Dynasty.
He also threatened: "The envoys of the Tang Dynasty insulted me, Tubo, and gave them to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. In this way, Tubo was united in his army and entered Chang'an City to ask for an explanation."
An invading war was disguised as a just war to safeguard dignity in the unilateral red-mouthed and white tongue of Tubo.
If it were just like this, Old Li would not be so angry.
What he was angry was that the war had just begun. Han Wei, the governor of Songzhou of the Tang Dynasty, not only did not defend the city but waited for reinforcements, but instead made a rash move and led his troops out of the city.
As a result, the Tubo army was defeated.
Countless people threw away their helmets and armor, barely fled back to Songzhou City, and were in panic all day long.
Fortunately, the military report was sent.
The Tang Dynasty wiped out Tuyuhun just a few months ago, and the troops were in full swing.
In addition, the emperor has recently received help from Zhao Chen, and the Tang Dynasty was prosperous and the people were safe, and the old Li was very proud.
Since the destruction of Dongtujue in the north, Xueyantuo, who inherited Dongtujue, had no major changes.
Although the sudden invasion of Tubo was surprising and angry, it was not panic.
Li Shimin was completely sure and slapped Songzan Gampo hard.
Chapter completed!
