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

Chapter 167 The shocked court, the name of Master Qin!

No marriage alliance, no compensation, no cession of territory, no tribute. The emperor guards the national border and the king dies for the country.

This... is really the skeleton of the Tang Dynasty!!
The hall was silent.

Li Tai's mouth was dry and cracked. He gritted his teeth and loudly refuted: "Father, it's not like that..."

"Shut up, you are the prince of the Tang Dynasty, but you can say such words!!"

"I... am so heartbroken! If it weren't for the Tang Dynasty and Master Qin, I would really have fallen into your trap!!"

"The Tang Dynasty was sent away by you silently, and I may not even know about it!"

"Marriage? Hahahaha...what a joke!"

Li Shimin let out a long roar and looked down at everyone with a somewhat crazy look on his face.

When Changsun Wuji, Du Ruhui, Li Jing and the others heard this, their bodies were shocked and they looked at each other with shock in their eyes.

Master Qin???
"Qin Wenyuan"!!!
When Li Taiwei and Pei Ji heard this name, their eyes instantly widened.

What exactly is going on?

Why is there a change!

That man, "Qin Wenyuan" intervened?

Wei Ting panicked and said hastily, "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, this, this is not possible, Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, didn't we agree on the marriage yesterday? This matter is of great importance. If the court suddenly goes back on its word, the prestige of our Tang Dynasty will be shattered, Your Majesty!"

"And we will certainly be retaliated by the Turks. By then, our Tang Dynasty will be in dire straits. Your Majesty, have you forgotten the Wei River three years ago?"

Wei Ting's panicked voice was intermittent and somewhat distorted.

"It's settled? Bullshit, when was it settled? Did I issue an edict? Did I submit it to the Turks in the form of a letter?!"

Li Shimin's eyes were gloomy.

"this……."

Wei Ting suddenly had nothing to say.

Indeed, they only discussed in the court yesterday. No decree was issued, nor was a letter submitted to the Turks.

"Your Majesty is wise, Your Majesty is wise!!"

At this moment, Du Ruhui roared, knelt heavily on the ground, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, you are right, our Tang Dynasty is afraid of the Turks."

"Your Majesty is wise, Your Majesty is wise!!"

Zhangsun Wuji, Li Jing, Wei Zheng and the others all echoed and shouted until their voices were hoarse.

Your Majesty, it's getting hard!!!

Young Master Qin is awesome!!!
They became even crazier in their hearts.

On the other side, Li Tai, Chai Lingwu and the others were all stunned.

This was a sudden change of behavior. Li Shimin suddenly said this. They really were... no one could have imagined it.

No one expected that Li Shimin would suddenly say this at the morning court today.

They were really caught off guard.

"Father, huh...Father, don't say that about the Turks. Be careful not to hurt the relationship between the two countries. If the Turks move south, it will be a disaster!"

"Father, let's put the matter of sending a few more princesses on hold for now. Father, we can't return from what happened in Changle yesterday, Father!"

Li Tai panicked.

He was really panicked.

Damn "Qin Wenyuan", you are not even in Chang'an, why are you still making trouble? !

damn it! !

This time he really ended up losing more than he gained. Not only did he fail to complete the task of sending a few more princesses, he also ruined yesterday's marriage.

Unacceptable!!
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei is right. His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei is right. Please think twice. Please think twice!!"

"The Turks... We must keep them stable. The Turks are strong and our Tang Dynasty cannot defeat them!"

Wei Ting suppressed the urge to vomit blood and shouted loudly.

He was also confused.

My mind is in a mess.

This news can be said to be known to the whole Chang'an now, and the Turks also know it. Yesterday, they joined forces with the Five Surnames and Seven Families to make this matter a sensation and spread it throughout Chang'an, just to make this matter a fact.

but…….
Now…….
啊… … .
He went crazy.

If the plan really fails, how should we face the Turks?

The close relationship that we had worked so hard to build was completely shattered.

"Your Majesty, making peace with the Turks and establishing a lasting friendship between the two countries is the best policy. Your Majesty, please do not make the mistake!"

"That's right, Your Majesty. His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei is worried about the empire. Even if today's matter is put on hold, yesterday's matter must not be reversed. Your Majesty, don't lose your mind!"

"Your Majesty, Young Master Qin is young, what does he know about the relationship between the two countries? Don't pay attention to him, and don't listen to Young Master Qin!!"

"Your Majesty, I second the motion. We second the motion!!"

"......."

Officials such as Wei Ting and Chai Lingwu, including officials from the Five Surnames and Seven Families, all shouted loudly, trying to force Li Shimin not to go back on his word.

damn it!
what's the situation?
Wasn't everything fine? Why did things suddenly take a turn for the worse?
My scalp is a little numb.

If this matter is messed up, the loss will be too huge.

Not only will the Turks and the aristocratic families fall apart.

Over the past three years, all the efforts that the Prince of Wei's Palace had invested in the Turks had been completely wasted.

Li Shimin looked at the officials who were in an uproar, laughed a few times, suddenly stood up, stood on the steps, and looked down at everyone like a god.

"Mr. Qin shaped the backbone of our Tang Dynasty. How can you slander him?"

"A bunch of trash!!!"

"Marriage? Stabilize the Turks. The Turks are unrivaled and invincible? What a joke, what a joke! It's really a huge joke!!!"

"A bunch of cowards, cowards! Look at your faces. The King of Chu is right. He is right. I am ashamed of you. Shame on you! I have seen you all, and I feel ashamed. Ashamed!!"

"One by one... you are unworthy of being important officials of the Tang Dynasty, unworthy of being trusted by the people of the world, hahahaha... Today, I will tell you one thing, listen, remember it well, this is what the King of Chu said to me, today I am telling you, you, engrave it in your heart, never forget it in this life, this is the bone of the Tang Dynasty!! "

"King Wei, raise your head for me, and you... remember this too!"

"No marriage, no compensation, no cession of territory, no tribute. The emperor guards the country's gates and the king dies for the country. This is the backbone of our Great Tang, this is the teaching of our Great Tang. You all, remember this, remember this sentence!!"

"I don't want to hear you talk about marriage anymore. Tell the Turks, if you want to fight, then fight. Every inch of our Tang Dynasty is stained with blood. Why should we, the men of our Tang Dynasty, be afraid of a bunch of barbarians?"

"Hahaha... I'm not afraid. Young Master Qin, a mere teenager, is not afraid. So what should I be afraid of as the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty?"

Li Shimin spoke with great excitement and agitation. Because he exerted too much force, his steps became a little messy and he sat down directly on the steps.

Eyes like blood.

Proud look.

He supported his knee with one hand and pointed at the officials below with the other.

At this moment, Li Shimin finally realized the responsibility of being an emperor.

No longer hiding "Qin Wenyuan".

Say "Qin Wenyuan" openly!
At this moment.

The words fell.

All the officials and the entire court were listening in amazement.

They opened their mouths, with shock in their eyes.

They are confused!

They cracked!

They are stupid!

They were shocked!

It was dead silent!

Silence!

You can hear the needle drop!

Breathing heavily!

Now, no one was able to speak, and everyone's eyes in the hall were on Li Shimin.

They stared at Li Shimin's bloodshot eyes.

I just felt goose bumps all over my body, falling down like crazy, my entire scalp was numb, and I even felt a surge of urine rushing through my body.

Frightened!

Explosion! Unbelievable!

These words……These words……
No marriage alliance, no compensation, no cession of territory, no tribute. The emperor guards the national border and the king dies for the country.

It is the skeleton of the Tang Dynasty!
Was this said by "Qin Wenyuan"?
"Qin Wenyuan"... can you say such a thing?

However, they no longer wanted to know whether it was "Qin Wenyuan" who said it. They were all immersed in this sentence, and their minds were blank.

Zhangsun Wuji, Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng and the others were kneeling on the ground, their facial features slightly distorted, and their throats felt like they were being pricked by needles, as if they were a firebird.

Swallowing hard.

My blood is boiling.

His Majesty…….
"Qin Wenyuan"...
hiss…….
They felt like their bodies were about to break apart, and they couldn't help themselves, their eyes were blurry, and tears flowed wildly.

"Ah... Your Majesty is wise! Your Majesty is wise! With Prince Qin in the Tang Dynasty, we will surely conquer the world and prosper forever!"

"From this moment on, our Tang Dynasty will not marry off princesses, pay indemnities, cede territory, or pay tribute. The emperor will guard the country's gates, and the king will die for the country!"

"Okay, okay! Your Majesty, I...I...I will always follow Your Majesty. If the Turkic barbarians want to disrupt the Tang Dynasty, they must step over my body first!!"

Du Ruhui let out a long roar; he couldn't bear it any longer.

He felt like his body was going to explode.

It was buzzing like a volcanic eruption.

he yelled.

He expressed.

He was violent.

Du Ruhui, with tears in his eyes, looked at Li Shimin who was sitting on the steps, respectfully with his forehead pressed against the ground.

"Your Majesty is wise, and Prince Qin is wise. Sweep the world and prosper forever!"

"......."

Zhang Sun Wuji, Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng and the others followed suit and roared out together, lingering in the hall for a long time.

Their voices were the only sounds in the entire hall.

"No marriage, no compensation, no cession of territory, no tribute. The emperor guards the country's gates and the king dies for the country. Your Majesty, I am willing to die for the Tang Dynasty!"

Li Jing's eyes exploded. He knelt down and smashed his hands hard on the prince. Blood flowed out, but he seemed to have no feeling anymore.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to die for the Tang Dynasty!"

"......."

Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, Yuchi Jingde...
The voices of these Tang Dynasty generals are enough to overturn this hall.

There was endless fighting spirit on their faces.

To be honest, these military generals felt the most aggrieved about this marriage.

Their duty is to defend their country, but now they want a woman to show weakness and seek peace on their behalf!
They were not convinced, but they could only keep it in their hearts as they had nowhere to find the truth.

But now, they are all released.

I am willing to die for the Tang Dynasty!

This is their integrity!
It is also their determination!
Li Taiwei and Chai Lingwu and other nobles knelt there and suddenly felt that they were out of place in this court.

Changsun Wuji, Du Ruhui, Li Jing and others were just a minority in the court.

But this momentum completely engulfed them.

Their faces turned a little pale.

Looking at Li Shimin sitting alone on the steps, he lowered his head deeply.

At this time, no one could say a word.

No marriage alliance, no compensation, no cession of territory, no tribute. The emperor guards the national border and the king dies for the country.

They feel ashamed in their hearts!
"Hahaha……."

Li Shimin laughed.

He struggled to his feet.

"Well, well, well, with all of you dear ministers, our Great Tang will surely prosper and triumph. Withdraw the court!"

"What happened in the morning court today must be announced to the world immediately!!"

Li Shimin flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.

This time, he walked with great ease.

This time, he left with great joy.

This time, he walked very happily.

"Qin Wenyuan"!
Master Qin!
I...did not embarrass you!!
"Congratulations to Your Majesty!"

This time, no one remained silent.

The voices of the nobles resounded through the sky, and seemed to be heard outside the entire imperial city.

For a long time, no one moved in the hall.

It was not until the eunuchs came out and helped Changsun Wuji and others up that slowly, there was movement in the hall.

….………….….
But even so, he remained silent.

No one speaks.

Li Tai stood in the middle, he was like a walking corpse, his face no longer had the previous resistance and excitement, he just stared blankly at the dragon throne in front of him.

At this moment, the sun has jumped out.

The sunlight shines on the dragon throne.

Golden.

It was so bright that he could hardly open his eyes.

Li Tai didn't know how he got out. His mind was blank and his heart was filled with deep regret.

I shouldn't have come today!!

"Everyone, let's go, let's go."

"This matter should be announced to the world."

“Hehehe…”

"Although Young Master Qin is not in Chang'an, everything in Chang'an cannot be hidden from him."

Du Ruhui sighed.

"Who said it wasn't? This time, we are lucky to have Young Master Qin. But...if it weren't for Young Master Qin, no one would be able to stop the marriage."

Changsun Wuji shook his head and sighed deeply.

"Mr. Qin, you are a man of courage, a true man of the Tang Dynasty, hahahaha... No marriage, no compensation, no cession of territory, no tribute, the emperor guards the country's borders, the king dies for the country, this sentence is good, really good!!"

"Damn it, when we get back, I'll make Cheng Chumo and the others memorize it hundreds of times!!"

Cheng Yaojin praised with a grin, deep traces of tears on his face.

"Master Qin..."

Wei Zheng took a deep breath, nodded emphatically, and continued: "No one can match him."

Everyone agreed with this statement.

No one objected.

The morning court was over.

But for Chang'an, it seemed like it had just begun.

When the events of the morning court were officially reported to the world, the whole of Chang'an was torn apart.

The first to hear the news was the Princess's Mansion.

Princess Changle sat alone at the table all night.

She didn't dare close her eyes.
