Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 987
There was a burst of laughter in the hall.

"You really have a thick skin!"

"Only you can beat others, not others can beat you, how can there be such a reason?"

"That's right, that's right, she's too thick-skinned, even thicker than my old Cheng!"

……

Hearing this, Gao Zheng's face turned red and white, and he was very angry in his heart. This was simply a humiliation to the king Chi Lulu.

In addition to being angry, I was a little aggrieved, because the situation is stronger than people!
Now that the Tang Dynasty has conquered the entire Liaodong, their Goguryeo is at a disadvantage, so they dare not speak out.

Gao Zheng said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty doesn't understand the situation in Liaodong. We have had grievances between Goguryeo and Silla for hundreds of years, and the hatred is as deep as the sea. How can it be regarded as attacking Silla without reason? Your Majesty doesn't understand the truth of this at all. .”

Changsun Wuji laughed and said, "It's Silla who has a deep hatred for you, Goguryeo, right? You Goguryeo has bullied Silla for hundreds of years. It occupies one city today, and two cities tomorrow. Annexing Silla directly seems to say that you have been wronged, not only Gao Jianwu has a thick skin, but you ministers also have a thick skin!"

Gao Zhengchao Changsun Wuji cupped his hands slightly and said: "My lord Changsun's words are wrong, and Silla did not take advantage of others' dangers to attack our Goguryeo. It's hard to express the grievances and resentments in it."

Li Ji shook his head slightly and said: "Look, what you said is wrong again. You always beat Silla, and occasionally he retaliates twice, but you are quite clear about grudges!"

Yuchi smiled and said: "Shameless, too shameless!"

Gao Zheng said in a deep voice: "After all, this is a matter between our Goguryeo and Silla. Isn't it inappropriate for Datang to intervene in this way?"

Li Shimin said with a smile: "Silla is a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty. Since Silla sent an envoy to ask for help, then I, the Tang Dynasty, should naturally save me. Otherwise, wouldn't it make the world laugh at me? Moreover, for hundreds of thousands of years, our Central Plains and You Goguryeo also have constant hatred, I don’t tell you you know it.”

Gao Zheng sighed: "When is it time to repay the grievances? The war is together, and the lives are miserable. The people in the world are pitiful. Now my king has decided to withdraw from Goguryeo. Please also withdraw from Goguryeo. From then on, the war will be turned into friendship. The world is very lucky!"

Su Cheng coughed and said: "Xing, the people are suffering, death, the people are suffering, if you can turn fighting into jade, it is indeed a good thing!"

Li Shimin was stunned, Changsun Wuji was stunned, Li Jing was stunned, Li Ji was also stunned, everyone in the hall was stunned except Su Cheng, even Gao Zheng was stunned.

Although before coming in, Su Cheng said that he would help him persuade the emperor to retreat, but he was skeptical, but he didn't expect that Su Cheng would actually speak for him.

Gao Zheng was pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly said: "Duke Rong Guo is lenient, you are right, for the sake of the people not to suffer, I ask your Majesty to retreat and turn hostility into friendship!"

Li Shimin and others looked at Su Cheng, but they didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Su Cheng's gourd.

Especially Li Shimin, he knew that Su Cheng had spent a lot of time planning the Eastern Expedition, so how could he give up so easily?
Li Shimin looked at Su Cheng, but saw Su Cheng raised his head and blinked.

Li Shimin was very familiar with Su Cheng. When he saw Su Cheng's appearance, he knew that Su Cheng didn't want to retreat at all, but was thinking about something else in his mind.

Su Cheng pondered: "Although Mr. Gao said that he would withdraw his troops, I just don't know if it is true!"

Gao Zheng hurriedly said: "It's true, of course it's true, our king has already issued an order, Yuan Gai Suwen has already received the order, and now we have retreated!"

Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "If I retreat back and find that Goguryeo has not retreated, wouldn't it make the world laugh at me?"

Gao Zhenggong said: "My king really ordered to withdraw troops. Since His Majesty doesn't believe it, he can send someone to investigate. If it is confirmed that Yuan Gai Suwen has withdrawn troops from Silla, will His Majesty withdraw troops from Liaodong?"

Li Shimin laughed and said: "Whether to retreat or not, let's wait until I am sure that you Goguryeo will withdraw from Silla, and you Goguryeo burned, killed and looted in Silla, you must give me an explanation? Give Silla an explanation?"

Confession?Gao Zheng felt awe-inspiring when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "Our king has already agreed to retreat, what else do we need to explain? Didn't His Majesty also capture Liaodong? Our soldiers and civilians in Liaodong also suffered casualties. Isn't this even?"

Changsun Wuji smiled and said, "You say it's unreasonable. It was you Goguryeo who started the war. The fall of Liaodong is your own fault!"

Su Cheng said with a smile: "Lord Gao, in my opinion, it is better to cede Liaodong, which can be regarded as an explanation, and from now on, we can turn hostility into friendship..."

Before Su Cheng finished speaking, Gao Zheng suddenly changed color and ceded Liaodong?how can that be?

Who can accept such a shameful humiliation?
Moreover, Liaodong is their barrier for Goguryeo. If Liaodong is lost, then Goguryeo has no danger to defend.
Gao Zheng clasped his fists and said, "Eastern Liaodong has been my Goguryeo land since ancient times. How can I cede it? Our king is willing to retreat because of his kindness. From now on, we will turn hostility into friendship, so that the people of the world will not suffer any more."

"Even though the Great Tang has magical weapons like artillery, I, Goguryeo, have hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers. It's not because I'm afraid of the Great Tang. Your Majesty, please learn from me!"

Li Shimin laughed and said: "Hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers, good, good, very good, I want to teach you the hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers in Goguryeo, see you off!"

Gao Zheng walked out of the hall, Su Cheng shook his head and said: "Master Gao, I was kind enough to help you talk in the hall, what are you talking about about hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers? Your Majesty is very talented, and you are so talented. Didn't you anger His Majesty by saying that? It's counterproductive." what!"

Care to speak for us?Gao Zheng almost died of anger when he heard it. You monarchs and ministers are clearly trying to conspire against Liaodong!
Not only plotting Liaodong, but also wanting to take the opportunity to excuse Yuan Gai Suwen.

Gao Zheng said in a deep voice: "East Liaodong is the land of our Goguryeo. The people of Goguryeo are the people of my Goguryeo. How can I cede it? This is a great shame and shame. I am ashamed of my ancestors. Even if I fight to the death, the people of Goguryeo will never cede it. Liaodong!"

"I still have hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers in Liaodong. Even without these hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers, there are still tens of thousands of ordinary people!"

Su Cheng sighed: "What Mr. Gao said is also reasonable. I will try my best to persuade Your Majesty, but it is hard to say whether it will be successful. As for Brother Wen, I would like to ask Mr. Gao to speak well. Brother Wen is really innocent!"

innocent?

Innocent ass!You, Su Cheng, have a wishful thinking.

Gao Zheng smiled and cupped his hands and said, "I will tell the truth to the king about what the Duke said, and I think the King will deal with it fairly! Don't worry, the Duke!"

Su Cheng cupped his hands and smiled slightly: "Thank you, thank you, then I won't give it away!"
