Chapter 550 The day before the opening of Lemin Garden [Monthly Pass Again]
The Goguryeo people finally had dinner, and they ate food that was very famous in the Tang Dynasty.
It's just that the quantity is less.
It can be said that if everyone gets a share, no one will be full.
Generals like Eulji Mundeok felt even hungrier.
"Your Majesty, if they are hungry, will they be accused of being rude to us in the Tang Dynasty?" Eunuch Gao accompanied Li Er on the stone road of the harem and said softly.
"Let the Ministry of Rites handle this matter. Just say it is my wish. Three days later, we will sign an armistice agreement with Goguryeo. Before the first day of April next year, the Tang Dynasty will never go to war with Goguryeo again. The first day of April next year.
, Goguryeo fulfilled their promise, and Datang was willing to form an alliance with them."
As Li Er spoke, Eunuch Gao took the small notepad Li Yuanxing gave him and wrote quickly.
After finishing writing, Eunuch Gao asked again: "What if they breach the contract? How should I tell the Ministry of Rites?"
"Say?" Li Er stopped, turned around and smiled: "Do you need to talk? If they breach the contract, the next thing will be the matter between King Qin and General Tiance's house, and the Ministry of Rites will no longer be involved."
Eunuch Gao understood. It was enough for him to take the first half of the message seriously.
Another early morning, thousands of workers at the Lemin Garden, formerly known as Chang'an West City of the Tang Dynasty, were putting up lanterns and streamers because the park would be opened in twelve hours.
The mysterious and tempting Le Min Garden.
The official newspaper Datang Daily used a symbol that has only been used in Chang'an for four months and not everyone is proficient in it. The question mark! to represent the mystery in Lemin Garden. The private newspaper reported a small
An interesting fact is that there was an object in Lemin Garden. After Wang Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites saw it, he did not say a word for three days.
Until now, when such a big thing happened in Chang'an, Wang Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites said nothing.
By noon, the denunciation of the Goguryeo people in Chang'an City had reached its climax.
At this time, a group of knights from Qin Wangzhuang in Chang'an County brought several secret letters and entered the Chang'an News Office, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Industry, as well as the residence of General Tiance and the palace.
After the Goguryeo people finally had a rice and had a decent lunch.
The Ministry of Rites sent a minister to have formal talks with the Goguryeo people.
"A truce?" After the Goguryeo envoy solved his stomach problem, his mind became clear. "The Tang Dynasty and Goguryeo have ceased war. I, Goguryeo, firmly believe that this is the credibility and sincerity of the Tang Dynasty. However, I, Goguryeo, still want to ask the Tang Dynasty to restrain the ministers.
The Mohe and Khitan people belong to the genus."
"I don't know where your sincerity lies!"
The people in the Ministry of Rites are not afraid of the collapse of the talks. With His Highness the King of Qin's affairs at the front, even if the talks collapse, no one will blame him, whether it is the court or the people.
On the contrary, if he shows weakness, then he will really be criticized.
"Datang believes that how can we show the sincerity of Goguryeo?" the Goguryeo envoy asked.
Under the current circumstances, as long as there is a real truce, Goguryeo will have enough time to prepare. Even if there is another battle, it will be far better than the current hasty battle. You must know that the loss of Liaocheng and Jian'an will make Goguryeo more vulnerable to the Great War.
Tang's front was completely disrupted.
The most terrifying thing now is not the Tang movement.
Instead, the Mohe and Khitan people continued to harass and plunder day after day. Not only did they have no chance to build new cities, many villages on the border were completely empty.
In part, the entire village was plundered by the Mohe and Khitan people, taking away all the people and belongings.
The other part is that the people were afraid and fled back one after another. This alone caused Goguryeo to actually lose dozens of miles of land, and the entire border moved back dozens of miles. How terrifying this was.
This is the real reason why the Goguryeo people sought peace.
"There are some remaining soldiers and generals from the former Sui Dynasty. Those people were returned to the Tang Dynasty?" the Minister of Rites took a sip of tea and said slowly.
At this time, Eulji Mundeok asked: "What do you want these people to do?"
"Whether you come back to be beheaded or become a slave is my business in the Tang Dynasty. You just need to answer, give it or not!" The official of the Ministry of Rites has never spoken in such a strong tone, and even he himself felt a little excited.
.
The Goguryeo envoy continued: "Your King Qin of the Tang Dynasty is not known for his kindness, so why can't he tolerate these remnant soldiers and generals of the former Sui Dynasty who fled to Goguryeo?"
"I, the King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty, only said that their souls have returned to their hometown. They died in Chang'an, and their souls have returned to their hometown. On the contrary, you Goguryeo people took in the soldiers who rebelled against our Tang Dynasty, but what do you mean? I, the Tang Dynasty, rule the world, and the world
The people surrendered, all the armies surrendered, and the only remnants of the former Sui army were taken in by you."
"What if we, Goguryeo, don't agree?" the Goguryeo envoy's tone also became tougher.
"Before, we in the Tang Dynasty have expelled people from enemy countries. It doesn't matter whether you are from Goguryeo or Baekje. At this time, if you don't agree, leave within three days, otherwise..."
Having said this, the Minister of Rites stood up and was about to leave.
This means that the talks have collapsed, does that mean the start of war?
"Wait a minute!" the Goguryeo envoy stopped the Minister of Rites: "We agree!"
"Very good, write a letter and return home immediately. The Liao City garrison will not see the remnants of the Sui Dynasty within a month, and you don't have to go back to Goguryeo. Leave your head to me as a sacrifice flag for the Tang Dynasty!" The minister of the Ministry of Rites waited for the opportunity.
I have been thinking about saying this for almost an hour, but just saying it is so satisfying.
The Goguryeo envoy was originally standing, but when he heard these words, his legs softened and he fell to his knees.
"Wrong, totally wrong. Such a request cannot be agreed to. The Tang Dynasty does not dare to kill the envoys. How will the Tang Dynasty explain to the states if we kill us?" Yuengai Suwen heard the news and rushed over immediately.
"If the King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty had not been forced into such an embarrassing situation this time, I am afraid there would not have been this deadlock. That's all." The Goguryeo envoy said no more, sat down and wrote a thick letter.
Yeon Gae Suwen said again: "I will send the letter back to my country!"
"You are still young. If there is any accident along the way, you will not be able to handle it. General Eulji returns home to send a message." The Goguryeo envoy will not let Yeon Gaesomun go. Now Yeongaesomun is a chess piece. He is in Chang'an.
His father would object to returning the soldiers of the former Sui Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty.
Moreover, when Yeon Gae So-moon returns, it is inevitable that this young man will have some evil plans in mind.
By then, I am afraid that even half of the more than one hundred people in the envoy will not be able to return to Goguryeo.
Yeon Gaesumun also wanted to understand this relationship. He knew that he would definitely not be able to go back. Moreover, it would be impossible to send a letter back. His people would also be under surveillance, not only by the Tang Dynasty people, but also by their own people.
.
The credentials of the Goguryeo envoy have been submitted, and the returned letter has also been recorded in the Ministry of Rites.
Not daring to wait until the next day, he asked Eulji Mundeok to set off that day, taking only one person with him. The two of them took the certificate issued by the Ministry of Etiquette, each mounted a horse, and hurried back to Goguryeo.
Li Er met the minister in the study.
"Your Majesty, you did a great job in this matter. That's great!"
"The Holy Master praised me, but I dare not accept it. I received the secret letter from His Highness the King of Qin before negotiating with the Goguryeo people, which led to today's results. I do not dare to accept this credit!" The minister of the Ministry of Rites quickly explained.
.
Li Er laughed loudly: "A good plan requires capable officials to carry out it. You have contributed to this matter, and I know it well. Next, let the Goguryeo people relax for a few days and wait for Liaodong's response!"
"I excuse myself!" Seeing Li Er waving his hand, the minister from the Ministry of Rites bowed and left.
The smile on Li Er's face stopped, he looked at the credential and said to himself: "Wu Lang's cruel plan to kill people's hearts, I want to see if anyone in Goguryeo really believes in the royal family.
.Whoever dares is not afraid of being outed by the Goguryeo people. It seems that in less than three years, Goguryeo will be equal!"
Seeing that it was getting late, the city of Chang'an was still very hot, and there were countless people in the streets and alleys denouncing the Goguryeo people.
But at this moment, the newspaper sellers who had gone home to rest lined up and once again poured onto the streets of Chang'an. Everyone was carrying a heavy backpack, and from the exposed corner, it could be seen that it seemed to be newspapers.
"His Royal Highness the King of Qin wrote a handwritten message to the people of Chang'an, which was specially printed in the Chang'an newspaper and distributed free of charge."
With a shout, the newspaper seller who was shouting was immediately surrounded by people, and the printed page in the entire backpack was immediately taken away. This was not because they were free, but because many people spontaneously helped.
Spread this handwriting.
What did Li Yuanxing write?
To the people of Chang'an:
This king, Li Yuanxing, is so virtuous that he can be loved by the people. I am ashamed to accept this title.
Whether the former Sui Dynasty's expedition to Goguryeo was right or wrong is left to history to comment. I just know that those who are far away from home just want to go home. So I made a request, and Goguryeo only gave conditions.
This is a very fair deal. At least in my heart, just walking naked in Chang'an can exchange for the return of tens of thousands of bones, which is worth it.
I once said that the one who wears the robe is the King of Qin, and the one who does not wear the robe is still the King of Qin. What is the King of Qin? The King of Qin is not an official position, nor is it a title of prince. The King of Qin represents a kind of responsibility, as the King of Qin, or
It is said that from the day he became King of Qin, my life, glory, and everything was no longer my own.
As the emperor brother said, as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he could give everything for the Tang Dynasty.
I also want to say that as the King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty, everything I own belongs to the Tang Dynasty and I can give everything for the Tang Dynasty.
Our country, the Tang Dynasty, is a country of etiquette. When guests come from far away, we should treat them with courtesy.
The people of Goguryeo are guests from afar. Even if there is a slight conflict of words, this is a matter of state affairs.
If there is a mistake, it is not the fault of the people of Goguryeo. The fault is the rudeness of the Goguryeo royal family and the fault is the ambition of the Goguryeo royal family.
I once again express my gratitude to the people of Chang'an for their kindness, kindness and righteousness.
Because of a letter from Li Yuanxing in Chang'an City, it was before nightfall. The cry was loud! (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
