"The Regent is loyal, the heaven and earth can be seen, and the sun and the moon can shine. The Tang Dynasty has a Regent, which is actually a blessing for the Tang Dynasty. Everyone in the world respects the Regent!"

Ximen Yang knows the truth.

Li Jing nodded and said, "You have a vision. There are not many people who understand that I am loyal to the Tang Dynasty as you do. As a loyal minister, how can I do unfaithful things?"

"The Tubo envoys came to pay tribute. How could they not see the saints but instead come to see me? Isn't it said that I have planned to usurp the throne in the court and are a traitor?"

"The Tubo envoys must have had some misunderstandings about this king. If you tell the Tubo envoys, you should follow the rules and go to the saints first. It is a blessing for the saints to have loyal ministers like this king!"

"Well……"

Ximen Yang could only smile awkwardly and politely when he listened to Li Jing's slutty words.

Is it a blessing to have you assisted? That is the bad luck that will last for eight lifetimes before you will meet you!

Ximen Yang understood what Li Jing meant, and planned to continue Emperor Li Xian as a cover, and then confront Tubo envoys to take the initiative.

Li Jing showed an amiable expression on his face.

Since he saw the memorial, he had doubts in his heart that when the Tubo envoy came to Chang'an, he did not go to see the emperor, but to look for him, the regent. There must be an ulterior secret here.

Li Jing had thought about meeting the Tubo envoy, but as the number one loyal minister of the Tang Dynasty, how could he do something to transgress?

No matter what, Li Jing was also loyal to the Tang Dynasty. It would be more appropriate for the emperor to personally accept the surrender of other countries.

Behind Li Xian, he gave advice to Li Xian, and other things.

It can not only solve the diplomatic relations between the two countries, but also avoid some risks.

As far as Li Jing knows, his uncle Li Xian was not skilled enough in handling government affairs, lacked experience in many aspects, and lived in a deep palace. He did not understand that the people outside were sinister, which really made his nephew worried.

Now it’s time for the Tubo envoy to come to Chang'an to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty. This is a great time to train Li Xian!

"I decided to ask the saint to summon the Tubo envoys and discuss with the other party the issue of Tubo's resignation and tribute. You are like this..."

Ximen Yang did not wait for Li Jing to finish speaking, he felt that he had understood what Li Jing meant and said, "I understand. Please rest assured that the Regent. I will remind the saints what should be said and what should not be said. I will definitely be with the Regent.

Thought.”

Li Jing was furious: "What do you want to do? The saint is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Do you still need your teachings to do what you should do? Are you asking me to deceive the king?"

"Well……"

Ximen Yang thought Li Jing was asking him to stare at Li Xian and manipulate Li Xian at any time to do something that is beneficial to Li Jing.

"I have always abide by the truth of my ministers. The emperor is the emperor. How can I let my family slaves bully you!"

Li Jing said.

Ximen Yang was shocked immediately!

This is to remind him not to do anything deviant. Li Jing can control the emperor, but Ximen Yang cannot do it, which is a taboo.

"Ximenyang, you have been in the palace for some time now!"

Li Jing said.

"The old slave has been cleansed since he was a child and has been in office for twenty years!"

Ximen Yang nodded.

"It's been a while since I am with you?"

Li Jing said.

"The old slave has been serving the Regent for twelve years!"

Ximen Yang sighed that time flies so fast. When he met Li Jing, he was still a baby of four or five years old. That year, Ximen Yang was sixteen.

Back then, he was sent by Empress Wu to the Xu Palace to monitor King Xu Li Sujie, but he became acquainted with Li Jing and has been with Li Jing until now.

"You have also served the royal family for twenty years, and you should understand what to do!"

Ximen Yang immediately understood that it was Li Jing who was beating him and telling him not to forget his roots.

"I understand!"

"It's fine if you understand, then I'll ask you to go to the palace and explain this to the saints. I'll officially summon Tubo envoys in Xuanzheng Hall tomorrow!"

Li Jing said.

Ximen Yang hurriedly said yes and retreated.

Ximen Yang left the palace and headed straight to the Daming Palace. He wanted to go to the palace to tell Li Xian what to pay attention to tomorrow so as not to ruin the major affairs of the Regent.

The next morning, in Xuanzheng Hall, according to the convention, we first deal with the matters that everyone reported, and then we will receive the envoys from Tubo.

"Master, the Tubo envoys have been waiting outside the hall for a long time. Tubo sent envoys to pay tribute to the emperor!"

The Minister of Rites Fan Lubing came out of duty and reported to Li Xian respectfully with a tablet in his hand.

Li Xian, who was wearing a crown robe and sitting upright on the dragon throne, heard this and said, "The envoys of Xuan Tubo entered the hall!"

"Present Tubo envoys met!"

The eunuch stepped forward and shouted loudly, proclaiming the Tubo envoys to the palace. This is a very important political activity for the monarchs and ministers of the Tang Dynasty!

You can imagine the scene where Ying Jiang kneels in front of the Celestial King and recognizes the Celestial King as the Celestial King.

The political significance of the Tubo envoys coming to Chang'an this time is extraordinary. It indicates that at least now and in the next few decades, the Tang Dynasty will trample Tubo under its feet.

This is almost equivalent to later generations, when the Celestial Empire stepped on Ying Jiang under its feet.

It is conceivable how shocked the countries in the world would be if they knew this news!

Looking back at that time, the Tang Dynasty was defeated by the Battle of Dafeichuan, which was the greatest shame since the founding of the Tang Dynasty. Not only was it bullied by Tubo every year, but it even occupied the territory on the peninsula by Silla.

In the end, we had to compromise and use the Datong River as the boundary with Silla, including the Jiangbei of Pyongyang, the Datang River belongs to the Datang River, the Yalu River belongs to the Datang River.

In other words, the territory of Goguryeo and Baekje became the territory of Silla. The territory obtained by the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty fought bloody battles, but they made wedding dresses for Silla.

Now that Tubo has surrendered to the Tang Dynasty again, the Tang Dynasty has finally made itself proud and avenged its previous shame!

In Li Jing's view, Tubo surrender was just the beginning, not the end!

The future of the Tang Dynasty is the entire world. One day, I will let the entire world crawl at my feet.

If you want to make the whole world crawl at your feet, the only way is to fill the technology tree and rely on powerful technology that is ahead of others to crush your opponents.

Moreover, within twenty years, we must move from the age of cold weapons to the age of hot weapons.

Li Jing knew in his heart that when he thought of achieving this goal, he alone would not work, and he had to have enough science students.

Li Jing plans to open a college to cultivate various talents, including biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics, which all need to develop.

Only in this way can the Tang Dynasty become more prosperous and develop, and the Tang Dynasty will stand firm forever on the top of the world.

This is a grand plan, and it is not the time yet. When the imperial examination is over and the irrigation project begins to be constructed, it will be not too late to consider this matter!

Now we must deal with the Tubo issue first.

"Tubo envoys meet His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!"

Tubo envoy Qu Mang Buzhi walked in from outside the hall and saluted Li Xian, who was sitting on the dragon throne.

Li Xian showed a long-lost smile on his face. Looking at the respectful Tubo envoy, Li Jing finally felt that he had become the real emperor.

"No gifts and calmness!"

Li Xian hurriedly reached out to help him.

"Thank you, Your Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!"

Qu Mang Buzhi stood up and said, "Your Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the foreign minister Qu Mang Buzhi, who was ordered by my Tubo Zanpu, came to rebuild with the Tang Dynasty!"

"How can Tubo plan to rebuild with the Tang Dynasty?"

Wei Tieji asked.

"Tubo is willing to form a brotherly alliance in the Tang Dynasty and never violate each other forever! My Zanpu hopes to marry the Tang Dynasty princess."

Qu Mang Buzhi said.

If a brotherly alliance can be formed, the status of Tubo will be on par with that of the Tang Dynasty, and it will be even more perfect to ask for a princess.

This is the only way to gain more benefits for Tubo, but if he pays tribute, Tubo will be inferior to the Tang Dynasty and will not speak so toughly.

Of course, if it doesn't work, then you have to choose to pay tribute. It's better than being sent by the Tang Dynasty to defeat the Tubo king!

After seeing the prosperity and strength of the Tang Dynasty, I had to sigh at the wealth of the Tang Dynasty. No wonder Lun Qinling always wanted to go south. If he could enter Chang'an, all the glory and wealth here belonged to Tubo.

The Tang Dynasty was a big country with a population of tens of millions. Not only did it have many resources, but it also had a lot of food than those in Tubo.

Unfortunately! No matter how good Chang'an is, it is not as comfortable as the Tubo plateau. For a plateau like Tubo, the terrain here is too low and it is not suitable for the environment here at all.

It is not as comfortable as staying on the plateau. Although it is not suitable for the environment of the Tang Dynasty, it does not prevent Tubo from coveting the wealth of the Tang Dynasty.

After hearing this, the civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty changed drastically. Didn’t they agree to pay tribute?

Why did you suddenly change your mind? Tubo is too bullying!

The Tang Dynasty only accepted Tubo’s tribute and tribute, and was absolutely not allowed to be equal to the Tang Dynasty. Otherwise, the blood of the Tang soldiers would be in vain!

It’s simply delusional to want to marry my princess from the Tang Dynasty!
