Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 915

Jin Wenzhi nodded and said, "It's very possible, otherwise, why would the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty think of Yujia's personal conquest?"

"I think so too!" Jin Shengman nodded heavily, his eyes full of gratitude, it was his gratitude to Su Cheng.

In his opinion, Su Cheng was too generous. Not only did he help them get the Tang Dynasty to send troops to the east, but he also encouraged the emperor to march in person. What kind of heart is this?

Thinking about the misunderstanding of Su Cheng at the beginning, Jin Shengman felt very ashamed.

When making a bet with Su Cheng before, although Jin Shengman hoped that she would lose, she still felt ashamed and resentful at the thought of being a slave to Su Cheng.

But now, thinking of being a slave to Su Cheng, she no longer feels ashamed or angry. With such a great kindness and open mind, what if she is a slave to Su Cheng for a month?

She was willing, and she felt that Su Cheng was indeed worthy.

The envoys of Silla were all very excited, not only them, but there were many envoys from the Tang Dynasty in the Sifang Pavilion, and they were also very excited.

Now Datang is so strong and vigorously supporting Silla. If they are invaded by enemy countries in the future, Datang will also stand up for them. Can you not be excited?

The people in the Sifang Pavilion were very excited, but the people outside the Sifang Pavilion were not necessarily happy.

The military generals in the court were all as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and the civil servants were all black-faced, as if their mother-in-law had been molested.

The common people in the market were also discussing. Some of them felt that the emperor was too expensive to leave Chang'an without permission, while others thought that the emperor's personal conquest would definitely destroy Goguryeo.

Although everyone thought that Li Weigong was the No.1 general and the most suitable candidate to lead the army, he was still not as good as the emperor.

Dachaohui doesn't happen every day, but tomorrow will be Dachaohui.

Therefore, the courtiers simply didn't even publish the memorial, because they knew that even if it was published, the emperor would not read it, so they might as well wait for the grand court meeting and open their mouths to have a good time.

A group of courtiers walked into the hall with high spirits, like soldiers about to go to war.

"I see you, Your Majesty!"

"Let's all live in peace!" Li Shimin said in a deep voice. He is also extraordinarily energetic today, because his long-cherished wish is within reach. This is the best and last chance. It is also impossible for the royal driver to personally conquer Goguryeo, so we must not give up.

Li Shimin said loudly: "Today's Great Court Meeting, I want to say one thing first. The Eastern Expedition is no small matter. It is not only about helping the vassal Silla, but also about whether we can wash away the shame of the Central Plains Dynasty!"

"Therefore, the battle of the Eastern Expedition only needs to be won but not defeated. Originally, I wanted the Duke of Wei to lead the army, but the Duke of Wei was ill. After much deliberation, I can only go on the expedition myself..."

"Your Majesty! No!"

"Your Majesty, it is absolutely impossible!"

"The Son of Heaven, how can you put yourself in danger?"

"Your Majesty, take care of the country and the country!"

"It is enough to send a general to lead the army, and it will definitely defeat Goguryeo!"

……

Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "I have already said that the battle of the Eastern Expedition is very important. We only need to win and not lose, so I must personally lead the expedition! You don't need to say any more! I have made up my mind!"

Wei Zheng lifted up his official robe, knelt down on the ground, and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, please take the country and the country as the most important thing!"

Unexpectedly, as a servant, Wei Zheng knelt down in front of all the courtiers in the hall!

Ma Zhou was stunned for a moment, followed closely behind, knelt down on the ground and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, I beg your Majesty to take the country and the country as the most important thing!"

With Wei Zheng and Ma Zhou as the first, Kong Yingda, Yu Shinan, Chu Suiliang... more and more ministers knelt down in the hall, begging the emperor to put the country and the country as the most important thing, and not to conquest by the emperor himself.

The black and black courtiers in the main hall looked quite spectacular.

In the era of the Tang Dynasty, it was not customary for courtiers to bow down to the emperor. Of course, it was not absolute. If they sometimes begged for mercy, pleaded guilty, or thanked them, they would also kneel down when they were excited.

However, it is really rare to see so many important ministers like Wei Zheng and Kong Yingda bowing together.

All the generals were stunned, should they kneel or not?

Li Shimin also had a headache seeing this scene, and said in a deep voice: "Get up! You are kneeling on the ground, are you threatening me? Get up!"

Li Shimin's majestic shout echoed in the hall, Wei Zheng and the others hesitated for a moment but slowly got up.

Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "This world was brought down by me with one sword and one gun! Since I succeeded to the throne, how much painstaking effort have I put in? How can I not put the country first when I am here?"

"It is precisely because I want to put the country first, that's why I want to conquer by myself! The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, as well as the subjects of the Tang Dynasty, when they heard that they were going to conquer Goguryeo, everyone turned pale. What is this? Snakes are afraid of well ropes after biting for ten years!"

"So, for this Eastern Expedition, we must demonstrate the prestige of our Tang Dynasty and the confidence of our subjects! If this Eastern Expedition fails, not only will Goguryeo annex Silla and continue to grow stronger, but my subjects of the Tang Dynasty will The people will fear Goguryeo even more like a tiger!"

"I have lost confidence in Goguryeo, how will I fight this battle in the future? After Goguryeo grows stronger, it will definitely violate the side. At that time, what should I do? Can my soldiers still have the heart to fight in the future?"

The hall was quiet, and the faces of all the officials were very solemn. They had to admit that what the emperor said was indeed reasonable.

If this Eastern Expedition also fails, it is not just a question of whether Silla will be saved, but that the subjects of the Tang Dynasty have completely lost confidence in the Eastern Expedition.

A group of generals looked even more dignified, and they also felt the pressure.

Li Shimin looked around the group of ministers, and said in a deep voice: "I have said so much, just to tell you that this time the Eastern Expedition can only succeed and not fail! If you don't let Zhen Yu drive himself to conquer, then do you think whoever leads the army will be victorious?"

The hall was still silent. Although everyone was recommending candidates for sending troops before, but now the emperor asked again, but no one dared to speak again.

Because the emperor said that this expedition will succeed but not fail, the leader recommended by him will surely triumph.

If you can't triumph, then the person who recommended it will be held accountable!

And it's still not a small responsibility, listen to the emperor's tone, can you let it go lightly?

Not just taking responsibility, but no one has the confidence to triumph!

Even Wei Zheng was silent. The person he wanted to recommend was Li Ji, but would Li Ji be able to triumph?

It's hard to say, let alone Li Ji, even if Li Jing led the army to the east, there is no guarantee that he will be victorious!
