Chapter 1154: Weng Son-in-law’s Talk

After three rounds of wine, he was slightly drunk.

Tang Huang’s cheeks were rosy, and his heart widened. The bamboo chopsticks passed through the rising heat wave, and placed a pottery bowl between the white and tender tofu. He glanced at Tang Hao on his side, and said with a smile on his mouth: “Tang Hao, you will be conquering me. It’s been a few years since I counted it down.”

“Now that the whole world of the Tang Dynasty is settled, and the border is stable, this Tang Dynasty is as prosperous as I wish.” After lifting the cup, Tang Huang’s eyes flashed with approval, and he said loudly: “Come on, drink this cup.”

Huh. The cups and lanterns cried together, a piece of peace.

Putting down the cup, Tang Hao’s face flashed with worry, he hesitated, raised his head for a moment, stared at the Emperor Tang, and slowly said: “Your Majesty, the Tang Dynasty is prosperous today, and the neighboring countries are peaceful, but the ministers have doubts and are quite disturbed. .”

At this time, the youngest son in Princess Changle’s arms was already asleep, and she bowed to her father according to the rules, and first returned to her room to rest with Zheng’er in her arms.

And Li Wanqing retired first in accordance with the etiquette, and only Tang Emperor and General Zhen Guo were left in the room.

After Tang Hao gave a courtesy of monarchs and ministers, he whispered: “Your Majesty asked the ministers just now whether the Tubo land is suitable for planting potato crops. The plateau land is an excellent place for planting, but pure technology export is by no means a good strategy.”

Tang Huang frowned and listened carefully to the analysis of General Zhen Guo.

“The Tubo people are fierce, and since Songtsen Gampo took the throne, Zampo’s strength has been increasing day by day. It really makes people have to be guarded.” Tang Hao pointed out straightforwardly.

“Songtsen Gampo took over the government when he was young, and after he assumed the throne, he first killed the people who poisoned his father and acted decisively and bravely.” Tang Hao said, “Internally put down the rebellion of the various tribes, and actively marry externally to expand their strength and their minds. He Ji had to be called a young hero. Before Princess Datang got married, he had already married Princess Chi Zun and formed an alliance with Nepal.”

Emperor Tang was thoughtful, yes, how could such a young hero be satisfied to just unify a Tubo plateau?

“Furthermore, in recent years, with the princesses and their relatives, a large number of talented Tubo craftsmen, including aristocratic sons, came to Chang’an to study. Some of them are even better than the craftsmen of China. Chang’an is not stingy in teaching technology, but Tubo has learned a lot. After Tang’s technology, it is hard to guarantee that these technologies will become their weapons to attack Datang.”

When he said this, Tang Hao strengthened himself.

Regarding the past when Tubo was defeated by Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, the Emperor Tang knew well that although the leaders had changed a few times, the Tubo tribe’s ambition to point the Central Plains would not die.

“Furthermore, the minister heard that Lu Dongzan led his troops to invade and occupy the Tuguhun area. It was nominally to put down the internal rebellion of the tribe, but in fact this area was included in the own territory.” Tang Hao directly threw out a fact.

Tuguhun borders Tubo and is directly under the jurisdiction of the Datang. Songtsen Gambo authorized the Tubo army to do so. It is tantamount to directly challenging Datang and directly against his emperor. Thinking of this, the Tang emperor couldn’t help but be shocked.

“The Zhenguo general has a solution.” Tang Huang said with a clear mind.

“The minister believes that the key lies in the protection of technology. The core technology is determined not to be secreted as a secret. General technology and products are exchanged for trade and will no longer be exported one-way as before.” Tang Hao said.

Tang Huang thoughtfully, Tang Hao said in detail:

“Iron smelting technology is directly related to the forging of military weapons. The key manufacturing technology establishes a special department for research and development and protection.” Tang Hao pointed out after seeing blood.

This point directly touched the heart of Emperor Tang.

“The Northern Territory is rich in cattle and sheep skins, while the artifacts and novelties of the Western Regions are scarce in Middle-Earth. Then the general technology and commodities of the Datang can be traded with the surrounding areas, so that the Datang is still open and tolerant, and it also accommodates surrounding products. Good points.” The general’s analysis was methodical.

Tang Hao remembered that in the middle school history class, the teacher explained the story of Tubo and Datang afterwards, but even if he told the old man a word, he might not believe it.

Besides, if Emperor Tang gets angry, his family will be destroyed. ,

Instead of this, I might as well use the suggested angle to remind myself the old man. But today, Tang Hao was very happy when he bestowed his child’s name on him.

Unconsciously, it was very close to midnight, and it was too early. Emperor Tang was about to move back to the palace. Before leaving, he told Tang Hao to keep the night’s conversation secret, otherwise the general would deal with it in accordance with national law.

After sending Emperor Tang away, Tang Hao was about to go back to his room to rest. At this moment, something in the sky seemed to fly into the sky, and then it exploded again.

After the thing exploded, the whole night sky suddenly seemed to bloom with a flower, very beautiful, especially beautiful, after people have seen it, it will be unforgettable.

However, there was another rumbling sound immediately afterwards, and another flower appeared in the night sky.

“Fireworks, is this fireworks?”

“Pretty, it’s so beautiful, how could there be such a beautiful thing in the world?” everyone admired.

“Whoever came up with this is a genius.” Everyone kept talking, Li Wanqing came out of the room and stood in the crowd, her eyes suddenly moist.

The fireworks tonight were so beautiful, and she knew that they were made for her by her own officials. This was the surprise Tang Hao gave to her lover.

She likes it very much, very much. Li Wanqing suddenly felt that as long as Tang Hao had himself in his heart, it was love to own, that was enough, right?
