"These barbarians dressed in black and feasting on food are really abominable." On the way back, Li Jiuzhou said bitterly: "They are so arrogant when they come for peace talks. They simply don't take the Tang Dynasty seriously."

Yang Bing was still a little excited, probably because of the quarrel just now, his mouth was dry, and his voice was a little hoarse: "That's right, I didn't expect the big cannibal in black to be so disrespectful, but then again, why does Li Jun hate the big man in black so much?"

Food?"

"Since Yang Qing asked about it, I'll tell you. But it's a long story. Let's go into the room and talk in detail first."

When he heard that he was going to teach him new knowledge, Yang Biao was naturally happy. The two of them entered the hall where Yang Biao worked and called for tea cups of fruits.

"Does Yang Qing know, apart from the Tang Dynasty, which other forces are more powerful in the world today?" Li Jiuzhou started talking directly as soon as he sat down.

Yang Bao thought for a while: "Tubo, Nanzhao, Silla, Japan."

Li Jiuzhou shook his head, "Yang Qing is talking about the countries in the east. There are two countries in the west, and their national power is almost ready to catch up with the Tang Dynasty."

"Which two countries?" Yang B asked.

"Big food, whisky."

Yang Bao snorted, "No wonder these big food messengers are so arrogant."

Li Jiuzhou gave him some popular science: "About Gaozong Longshuo's reign, the Arab Umayyad dynasty began to rise."

"Arabia is Dashi." Li Jiuzhou corrected him and continued: "At that time, there was a general in Dashi, named Hajjaj bin Yusuf. He told his men, who of you will set foot on Chinese territory first?

, appoint whoever will be the highest official in China.”

Yang B sighed: "I, the Tang Dynasty, have always been very fond of food, but I didn't expect him to be so ambitious. It's really hateful."

"Later, his subordinate Muhammad conquered the border areas of India, and Gu Taibai Ibn Muslim conquered Taligan, Shuman, Tahastan, Bukhara and other large areas of Central Asia, but none of them could cross

The national boundaries of the Tang Dynasty."

Yang Bing can be regarded as a well-informed person. When he heard the names of these big cannibals, he still frowned: "The names of these big cannibals are all so weird."

The weird name is not the main point. Li Jiuzhou did not answer his words and continued: "In the third year of Kaiyuan, the Great Eaters also joined forces with Tibet to attack Bukhanna, but they were defeated by the Tang Dynasty. Do you think I can give these great eaters a good look?

see."

Yang Bing felt a little angry when he heard that, and clenched his fists, "Of course we can't let them go. I'm being polite if I don't teach them a lesson."

Li Jiuzhou laughed maliciously: "How about we find an opportunity at night to beat up these big eaters?"

Yang Biao was startled for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Forget it, they have come from afar and they can be considered guests. The saint told us not to damage the way we treat guests in the Tang Dynasty."

"Haha, I'm kidding you." Li Jiuzhou patted his shoulder lightly.

During the negotiations the next day, Li Jiuzhou used the excuse that the envoy in black had not brought any gifts, saying that he had no intention of peace talks, and the two sides still broke up unhappy.

The envoy in black clothes was dissatisfied with the local environment and could no longer stay in Chang'an. The peace talks were delayed by Li Jiuzhou's ramblings to no avail, so he lost the magnanimity of the envoy and clamored to go back.

This is exactly the result Li Jiuzhou wants. There is nothing to talk about in the peace talks. If the black-clothed foodies are not allowed to see the power of the Tang Dynasty, they will still invade in the future.

The only way is to beat them, and to beat them all at once.

Of course, the final result of the negotiations still had to be reported to the emperor, who would decide.

In the Huaqing Palace, Yang Biao was already waiting anxiously.

"Yang Qing, the saint declares you." Gao Lishi walked out.

The emperor finally finished having fun and thought of Hongluqing who was still waiting outside.

Yang Bing followed Gao Lishi and entered the palace. The emperor asked curiously: "Can the envoy in black clothes say that he has surrendered to our court?"

The chamberlain sent earlier had already reported every word of the negotiations in a timely manner. The emperor was asking questions knowingly. Yang Bao looked respectful and hurriedly presented the two days of negotiation materials compiled in Honglu Temple.

The emperor read it patiently and said: "It seems that the big man in black is also very rude."

Yang Bing reported: "Returning to the sage, I have a vague sense of his ambition from the negotiation. If I compromise with him, I am afraid that he will make further progress."

Li Jiuzhou always instilled in Yang Biao the ambition of the black-clothed foodies to plot evil in the Central Plains. Yang Biao was influenced by him and silently accepted it in his heart.

Li Jiuzhou had said these words in front of the emperor and Gao Xianzhi before, and this time it was said again by Hongluqing Yang Bao. The emperor was more sure that Dashi in black was not a good friend, but a covetous wolf.

You cannot give in to it.

The emperor already had an idea in his mind.

Judging from Gao Xianzhi's appearance earlier, he was very willing to fight another battle with the black-clad Dashi. Even if he was not ordered to do so, he would take the initiative to start a war.

The emperor frowned slightly and asked, "Yang Qing, what do you think of Li Jiuzhou's performance this time?"

Yang Biao answered honestly: "Deputy Ambassador Li is neither humble nor arrogant, and he is very familiar with various foreign countries. This time the saint ordered him to assist me in the peace talks. He is really making the best use of his talents."

"You don't need to praise him. I've heard of all the dirty tricks he used." As he said this, the emperor smiled slightly.

Yang Bao raised his eyes and caught a glimpse of his expression, so he continued: "I have previously felt that Li Jiuzhou is knowledgeable about the past and the present, has great knowledge of people, and has made many meritorious deeds, which makes me impressed."

The emperor didn't pay much attention to him. After he withdrew, he ordered Gao Lishi: "Send Gao Xianzhi to pay an audience."

The emperor was somewhat pleased with the outcome of such negotiations. Although things were not done beautifully, the prestige of the Tang Dynasty was finally maintained.

Gao Xianzhi was very concerned about the peace talks. When he entered the palace, he couldn't wait to state that Dashi had colluded with Tubo and had already become a great threat to the four towns of Anxi.

"Yes." After listening to his statement, the emperor said calmly: "Go back to Anxi, Gao Qing, and pay close attention to the movement of the black-clothed food. If there is any trouble, send the news immediately. If it is not possible, why not fight with it?

If war breaks out again, I will make arrangements."

When he came back this time, he first wanted to win the approval of the emperor for his campaign against the Black Clothes Dashi, and secondly, he wanted to ask for troops from the imperial court.

Now that everyone in the imperial court had made up their minds and were ready to fight the black-clad Dashi again, the emperor said so, and Gao Xianzhi took the order to retreat.

Just as the emperor thought, Gao Xianzhi was a famous general in the Western Regions. Even if the black-clad Dashi did not take the initiative to invade, he would find ways to provoke a war. The humiliation of the previous battle with Hengrus would have to be repaid sooner or later.

When it comes to looking at people, Li Longji indeed has the power of an emperor.

The emperor did not see the black-clad envoy and asked him to go back first. As for the peace talks, there was no result in the end.
