Datang: Longevity for Thousands of Years, Exposed by Xiao Sizi

"Before, I made a bet with you all, and you all agreed to it. Even if I don't care, but you all... all have high moral character and keep your word. You will never break your promise, right?"

"So, I won't make any more requests. Let's just follow the previous bet. Each of you will be punished with thirty lashes, and your salary will also be deducted."

"Haha, everyone, don't worry. I will have the Jinwu Guards show mercy. Hahaha... It doesn't hurt, it won't hurt. Just bear with it and it will pass."

How could Li Shimin let them get away with it?

These thirty strokes of the cane must be given!!

Damn!

A bunch of old bastards, how dare you question me, hahahaha...

Live it!

Zhangsun Wuji, Cheng Yaojin, Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng and others were all trying hard not to laugh.

Think about it this time, Pei Ji and his group really set a precedent in all dynasties. Just imagine, in which dynasty would all the officials be dragged out and given thirty lashes each?

Our Tang Dynasty is really blessed by "Qin Wenyuan"!

If it weren't for the help of "Qin Wenyuan", Your Majesty would not have been able to defeat them so easily several times.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please forgive us this time. We...we are willing to let Your Majesty deduct ten years of our salary!"

"That's right, Your Majesty. From now on, we don't want any salary. Please spare me the thirty lashes of the cane!"

"Your Majesty, we were short-sighted before and did not understand the power of the guardian beast. Your Majesty, please stop fighting and spare us this time!"

"Your Majesty, we were wrong, we were really wrong, please stop fighting!"

"......."

Hundreds of officials wailed.

But Li Shimin stood up with a smile and shook his head firmly.

Suddenly, a feeling of despair rose from the hearts of all officials.

Finished!

This time it's really over!!
The depths of Pei Ji, Wang Gui and the others' eyes were also filled with bitterness.

hiss…….
啊… … .
The people sent by Li Shimin really wanted to torture them to death.

However, suddenly, Pei Ji remembered something and raised his head abruptly.

"Your Majesty, we have received news that the Turkish envoys are coming. I beg Your Majesty to wait a few days before fighting. At least let the Turkish envoys leave Chang'an before discussing this matter."

"Otherwise, when the time comes, the Turkic envoys will come, but there will be no one in the court of the Tang Dynasty. That will damage the national prestige and the image of Your Majesty!"

Pei Ji yelled.

In order to avoid the thirty lashes this time, he tried his best.

Of course, even if you can't avoid it, it's good to be able to delay it.

As for how the future will be delayed, it will be up to your future self to work hard.

They only know that now, they really can't stand it.

"Yes, yes, yes, Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

"Pei Sikong is right. The Turkic envoys are coming, but they will arrive in Chang'an today or tomorrow. By then... if the court is empty, it will really damage your Majesty's image, Your Majesty!!"

Wang Gui agreed repeatedly.

Now, he is willing to say anything as long as he can avoid this board.

"That's right, Your Majesty, please take your time."

"Your Majesty, let's wait until the Turkic delegation leaves."

"Your Majesty, let's deal with the matter of Kong Jue first."

"......."

All the officials seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and shouted and begged.

No one wants to be punished now.

They're going to drag it!

Just drag it out!

The longer the better!!
Who knows, maybe this beating will be gone in the future.

Li Shimin listened to their words and his eyes moved slightly.

indeed.

The Turkic delegation is coming.

If there were only a few people like Changsun Wuji in the government, it would be hard to bear.

Changsun Wuji, Du Ruhui and others exchanged glances with each other and nodded silently.

And right now.

The Turkic delegation mentioned by Li Shimin and others has entered the city.

The Turkic prince Jie Li Lang Ya sat on his horse, looking at the bustling Suzaku Street with people coming and going. It was so busy that he could hardly walk.

When did he pass through such a busy street?
When had he seen so many people?
Especially the women in Chang'an, each one is more beautiful, more gentle, and more pretty than the other.

Compared to the Turkic women, they are like heaven and earth!!

Jie Li Lang Ya only felt his throat was dry and itchy.

The horse's hooves moved slowly forward.

His eyes passed over various Chang'an women, and he couldn't help but be attracted to them.

suddenly!

His attention was attracted by a group of girls!

Then, his eyes locked onto one of them.

This group of girls were none other than Princess Changle, Du Ruyan, Fang Miaozhu and others.

Shopping is a hobby that women cannot avoid no matter what era.

Jie Li Lang Ya shook the rope in his hand and stopped directly in place, his pupils fixed on Princess Changle.

For a moment, my breathing became rapid.

The heaving of my chest began to grow heavier.

"Your Highness?!"

Beside him, the prince Jie Li Liuming sent by the Turkic royal court was so confused that he forgot to look at Jie Li Langya.

This time, the delegation came to Chang'an to accept tribute from the Tang Dynasty, and was headed by the two of them.

Jie Li Lang Ya ignored him.

He actually jumped off the horse, walked directly in front of Princess Changle and her group, and stretched out his hand to grab Princess Changle's wrist.

He is used to being arrogant on the grassland.

As the son of Jie Li Khan, wouldn't he have abducted any woman from other tribes that he liked?

Who dares to say anything? !

"Be bold!"

"Dog thief!"

"lecher!!"

"boom!!"

At this moment, Du Ruyan raised her foot, shouted angrily, and kicked Jie Li Langya hard.

Jie Li Lang Ya staggered back, and his hand naturally did not touch Princess Changle at all.

Princess Changle and the others also reacted and stood together, staring at Jie Li Langya with cold eyes.

Crash...
Behind him, the Jinwu Guards who had been following from a distance also surrounded him when they saw what was happening.

"How dare you do this in broad daylight! You bastard, do you know what you are doing? You deserve to be beheaded for such a crime!!"

Did a Jinwu Guard shout?
"Your Highness!!"

Later, when Jie Li Liuming saw that Jie Li Langya was at a disadvantage, they all jumped off their horses and stood behind Jie Li Langya.

"You ungrateful Tang women, do you know who we are? How dare you be so rude? Once I tell the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, I will make sure you are killed without a burial place!!"

Jie Li Liuming stared at them and shouted.

"Humph, I don't care who you are!"

Princess Changle's eyes were cold. She had calmed down from her panic and continued with great dignity: "In the Tang Dynasty, anyone who dares to disrupt the laws of the Tang Dynasty will be punished!"

"Hahaha, bullshit Tang Dynasty laws!" Hearing this, Jie Li Lang Ya laughed and said proudly: "In the Tang Dynasty, we are the grandfathers. Even if the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty comes, he has to bow and scrape to us. Who do you think you are? It's your blessing that Wang Benzi likes you. Don't be shameless!!"

"You, the Tang Dynasty, are nothing but vassals of my Turkic people. How dare you speak nonsense? You...I don't care who you are. I have already decided on you!" Jie Li Lang Ya stared at Princess Changle with red eyes.

His tongue kept licking the corners of his mouth, which was extremely obscene.

prince?!
Turkic?!
Princess Changle looked at them, sized them up and down, and knew their identities.

It's Turkic!!
The Turkic envoys just arrived in Chang'an!!

Suddenly, his face changed slightly.

"You can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth. Princess, let's go back home without getting into any trouble with them."

Du Ruyan's eyes flashed, and she turned and left with Princess Changle.

Turks!
They knew that with the Weishui Alliance, the Tang Dynasty would be unable to do anything to the Turks if it was defeated.

No one wants to get entangled with them.

In this case, it’s better to leave here first.

"Yes, Princess, let's leave here first."

Fang Miaozhu also agreed with her.

Although he was angry inside, he did not show it on the surface.

The Turks eventually defeated the Tang Dynasty.

Even if they are not convinced, what can they do?
This time, they came to the Tang Dynasty again to collect tribute.

Princess Changle looked a little unhappy, but she also knew that the best option now was to leave here.

If a conflict really broke out between this group of grassland barbarians, it would be bad for the Tang Dynasty, the imperial court, and my father, the emperor, and my mother, the queen.

Jie Li Lang Ya looked at the backs of Princess Changle and the others as they left and grinned.

"She has a bad temper, and she's also a princess of the Tang Dynasty. Hahahaha, I like her!!"

"Uncle, I'm determined to get this Princess Changle. She's awesome, awesome! Hahaha..."

"Think carefully, my father and his family have never slept with a Tang princess for a night, right? Princess Changle? She can barely serve by my side."

Jie Li Lang Ya is extremely arrogant and his voice is also very loud.

He wanted Princess Changle and others to hear it.

"Okay, since Your Highness likes it, then I will tell the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty that she is just a princess, and he will have to agree even if he doesn't agree!!"

"They are just a vassal state. How dare they refuse to give us what we want? Hahahaha... Your Highness, please mount your horse!"

Jie Li Liuming laughed.

In front, Princess Changle had a very unhappy expression on her face. Of course, she heard the conversation between the two.

He clenched his fists tightly.

I was extremely angry.

But she didn't know what to do.

Turks, these people are Turks!
The Turks who almost destroyed the Tang Dynasty!

"Your Highness, let's go back first. They are just making false claims. Your Majesty will never agree to it."

“Moreover, even if His Majesty agrees, Miaozhu believes that His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu will not agree!”

When the King of Chu was mentioned, Fang Miaozhu's eyes became hot, like an extremely devout believer.

Her confidence in the King of Chu has reached an unimaginable level.

Fang Miaozhu was mysteriously confident, but Du Ruyan and Sui Xing, the Jinwu Guards beside her, all had a hint of worry in their eyes.

Now the Tang Dynasty is making a comeback.

If this Turkic prince proposes marriage, for the sake of the great cause and stability, perhaps... Your Majesty will really agree.

Jie Li Lang Ya got on his horse again.

He glanced at the Chang'an people who were watching around him with contempt and rode away on his horse.

"This person is too arrogant. How dare he insult the Tang Dynasty like this!!"

"Damn, these Turks, they...they...I can't stand it anymore. When are we going to attack the Turks?!"

"Hush...keep your voice down. You know the situation of our Tang Dynasty. There is no hope of defeating the Turks in the next three to five years. Don't bring trouble to yourself."

"Bullshit! Damn it, are we just going to swallow our anger? Look, he actually flirted with our Tang princess in the street, and even said that our Tang is their vassal state!"

"Why……."

"......."

The people were angry.

The people were angry.

The people were eager to rush forward.

However, they also understand that the Tang Dynasty now seems to be inferior to the Turks.

Since the Battle of Weishui, the Tang Dynasty has suffered from natural disasters and man-made disasters year after year, and at the same time it has to squeeze out large quantities of food, silk and other supplies to send to the Turks.

This makes the already poor world even worse.

Now, the Turks are coming again.

I don’t know how much supplies I will have to take with me when I leave.

The Tang Dynasty seemed to have become their back garden of the national treasury.

damn it! !

The people of Chang'an clenched their fists tightly, but... they felt powerless.

After all, this is not something that the people can control.

……….…….….
Prince Wei's Mansion.

To everyone's surprise, the Turkic delegation entered Chang'an and did not go to the court first, but went directly to the residence of Wei Wang Li Tai.

Li Tai, along with several personal guards, warmly welcomed Jie Li Lang Ya and the others with a smile on his face.

"Your Highness Jie Li, please come in quickly and be careful at the threshold."

Li Taima went to meet him.

"Oh my... General Jie Li, how are you? You must have had a hard time on the journey. There are delicious wines and delicious food in the mansion provided by His Majesty the King of Wei. Please come and enjoy them."

The steward of Prince Wei's mansion flattered him hard.

Next to them were several court officials.

Morning is over.

They went straight to Prince Wei's mansion and waited.

In the end, Li Shimin still failed to achieve the thirty lashes.

Because of the matter of the Turkic delegation, after all, we can't let all the Tang officials lie on their beds to negotiate with the Turkic delegation, right?
It can only be postponed.

This is also something that can't be helped.

Jie Li Lang Ya patted Li Tai on the shoulder.

"Hahaha, good, good, the King of Wei is thoughtful."

"From what I have seen and heard about the Tang Dynasty in the past few years, I feel that the King of Wei is the one who truly knows how to entertain guests, so I brought people with me when I arrived in Chang'an. Now I see that it is indeed true. This welcoming ceremony alone is far better than your court by several streets."

Having said that, he walked straight past Li Tai and walked forward.

Li Tai took small steps and followed closely behind with a faint smile on his face.

"Hurry, hurry, generals, you too."

There was an official who invited others into the mansion.

After the lobby.

Delicious food.

Good wine and good tea.

There are also a large number of Tang Dynasty singers who are all ready.

Jie Li Lang Ya was not polite at all. He took a singer by the hand and sat directly in the middle seat.

"Come, King Wei, help me take off my shoes."

He simply put his feet on the table.

Li Tai hurriedly crawled over and carefully helped Jie Li Lang Ya take off his shoes.

I couldn't help but smiled shamelessly and said, "Your Highness, you are really generous. You are much more comfortable than the people of the Tang Dynasty when you act this way."
