Chapter 79: Tubo’s evil flames

"See the Emperor!" The ministers and the ministers and the emperor sat down and bowed to each other.

Ruizong glanced at the ministers, his eyes stopped on Chen Wanrong, nodded slightly, and glanced at other ministers, and did not stop until he finished the scan.

Among the ministers in the hall, Chen Wanrong had the lowest rank, standing at the end with a solemn look on his face. According to the rules, Chen Wanrong had no share in the morning court today. As for why Li Longji asked him to come to court, Chen Wanrong still didn't understand it.

"Dear friends: I have summoned you here today to summon the Tubo envoys." Ruizong made it clear: "The Tang Dynasty and Tubo are fighting, and the Tubo envoys come here this time, and they seem to have some reliance on them. Their people are doing evil and harassed people in Chang'an, and they have already committed several acts. Chen Qing, do you know this?"

It turns out that Dabu we met yesterday was just one of the people who harmed the people. Chen Wanrong was really surprised. He thought, if he had known this, he would have taught Dabu a lesson yesterday.

Chen Queben reported: "I have already known this matter when I call the emperor. However, they are from Tubo, and I have not touched them for the time being. I want to wait until the emperor summons the Tubo envoy before coming to question the crime."

It would be good to deal with it like this. Ruizong nodded and said, "I understand. I want to see how arrogant the Tubo envoy is?"

Although the Tubo people often acted rampant in Chang'an, it was the first time they were so rampant that Ruizong couldn't help but feel angry: "Call Gesang in."

"The envoy of Xuan Tubo, Gesang, met with the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!" The eunuch roared in a sharp voice.

The voices of "The Xuan Tubo envoy Gesang met the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty" came out of the hall one after another.

After a while, Tubo people, who were tall and had black skin with sunlight, strode in. His eyes were very vivid. When he turned slightly, he saw the scene of the hall, and his face did not change any color and walked towards Ruizong.

Two Tubo guards followed him, and the one on the right was Dabu who had beaten Chen Wanrong yesterday. It was a coincidence that Dabu came in and saw Chen Wanrong, and his face changed color, and his eyes shot out fiercely. He stared at Chen Wanrong with a fierce look. If it weren't for being in the court, he would have pounced on Chen Wanrong.

Chen Wanrong smiled contemptuously and ignored it. Dabu thought to put this aside in advance, and after meeting Ruizong, he would ask Gesang and Chen Wanrong to argue and seek justice.

Two soldiers stepped forward and stopped Dabu and the other guard. Gesan looked on his face: "They are my guards, so they should be with me."

Ruizong said coldly: "Gesang, this is the court of the Tang Dynasty, not the pasture of Tubo. You can bring in whoever you want. Blast these two things that don't understand the rules for me!"

Gesang originally thought that the battle between Tubo now had the upper hand, and tens of thousands of Tang troops gathered in front of Shibao City and did not dare to hit Shibao City. It was okay for him to show off his power. Unexpectedly, Ruizong did not give him a chance at all, so he was stunned. When his thoughts turned, he said: "Your Majesty, I am an envoy and have the right to lead the guards."

Ruizong remained silent and was still so cold: "Gesang, I will warn you that this is the Tang Dynasty, and I have to decide! I said you can bring the guards so that you can take them; I said you can't, but you can't take them!"

He had heard of Ruizong and Gesang, and knew that he was a good person and would not make things difficult for others. However, when he saw Ruizong, he realized that he was far from the rumors. Ruizong was not only difficult to speak, but also very tough. Gesang had to doubt whether the information was wrong. When he went back, he had to question whether these people who were doing information were lazy.

Gesang could not help but fight for his face: "Your Majesty, Gesang, as an envoy, was ordered to come to pay homage to Your Majesty and discuss peace talks between the two countries. If Your Majesty is so rude, please forgive Gesang for being unable to complete his mission. Say goodbye!" He turned around and walked outside.

Ruizong was determined to give Gesang a warning: "Gesang, if you want to leave, you have to wait until the Tang Dynasty completes its practice. Chen Qing will take out the bad things that harmed the people."

Chen Que Ying shouted, strode out, and waved his hands, and a team of Longwu Army came over. Chen Que gave an order, and the Longwu Army shouted and trotted. After a while, the Longwu Army turned around and brought a few Tubo people.

These Tubo people are still strong: "Let me go, let me go! I am a great Tubo, you can't treat us like this! I want to see your emperor, and I want to complain to your emperor!"

Although the roar was powerful, it was just useless, and the Dragon Martial Army ignored them at all.

Chen Que said with a cold face: "I am the Minister of the Tang Dynasty, and I enforce the law according to the emperor's will. You are bullying the people in the streets and your crimes are unforgivable. According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, each of you can stick thirty sticks!"

"You dare!" The Tubo people still didn't believe that Chen Que would take serious action.

Chen Que waved his hand, and the soldiers of Longwu Army overturned several Tubo people to the ground, raised their killing sticks and were about to start beating. Finally, they believed that this was true, not just talked casually, and couldn't help but beg for mercy: "Sir, please show mercy, the little one knows the guilt, the little one knows the guilt! I will never dare to do it again, I will never dare to do it again!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Gesang rushed to Ruizong and said, "Your Majesty, please let me say something."

Ruizong glanced at him and stopped talking. Gesang seized the opportunity and said, "My Majesty, even if my people are wrong, it should be Chang'an Order to take charge. Why should Your Majesty ask in person?"

He wanted to drag this matter over before seeking countermeasures. His idea was good, but Ruizong was determined to teach him a lesson, which would destroy his arrogance and remain unmoved: "Gesang, I want to tell you two points. One is whether I want to ask whether I want to ask, and I have no need to ask you. Secondly, the reason why I want to hit them in front of you is to destroy your arrogance and let you remember that the Tang Dynasty is not easy to mess with."

These words were spoken righteously and resoundingly. Chen Wanrong and the others would never have thought that Ruizong, who was like a good man, could say such powerful words on weekdays, and they all cheered secretly.

I have made it clear that I want to scare you, what can Gesan do? I can only surrender: "Your Majesty, please don't get me wrong. Gesan doesn't mean that. Gesan means that I will take them back and teach them a lesson."

Ruizong was still cold: "The Tang Dynasty enforced the law and did not give it to outsiders."

The Longwu Army received the order and waved the Killing Stick and beat it. Several Tubo people screamed in pain. After the fight, several Tubo people were bleeding and could not get up on the ground.

The blue veins on Gesang's forehead leaped straight, and his eyes were like fire was gushing out. He wanted to save him and wanted to ask Ruizong to plead with him. Ruizong didn't give him a chance at all. He asked someone to push him to see the practice, almost blew his chest out.

Chen Wanrong came out and said, "Emperor, there is another Tubo person who has not punished him."

Ruizong was very interested and asked, "Who is it? Please point it out."

Chen Wanrong looked at Da and said, "It was him. He forced himself to buy it on the street yesterday and broke it for me. He only gave 10 taels of silver for something that should have cost 10 taels of silver, and he was also arrogant and said that the law of the Tang Dynasty could not control him."

"Chen Qing!" Ruizong greeted.

Chen Que stepped forward and asked, "Is there any such thing?"

With the lessons of the past, Dabu couldn't stand it even if he wanted to stand it, and his face changed drastically: "Yes, yes, that's it!"

"Terror thirty sticks!" Chen Que cut off his sins very simply.

Dabu begged for mercy and said, "Sir, please spare me, please. This sir, hit me thirty whip yesterday."

Chen Wanrong said coldly: "Yesterday was to teach you a lesson, not to represent the court's practice. Today, you should be punished for your arrogant and ignorant yesterday!"

The soldiers of the Longwu Army overturned Dabu to the ground and began to practice the law. Gesang looked at Chen Wanrong and asked, "May I ask the name of Gao?"

Chen Wanrong saw that there was a fierce light in his eyes. He knew that he was not convinced and replied loudly: "My surname is Chen, and my name is Chen Wanrong!"

Gesang said, "Thank you Lord Chen to take action and teach Dabu this incompetent thing."

He was thanking him, but he felt extremely hated in his heart. Chen Wanrong ignored him and replied coldly: "You're welcome!"

After the fight, Gesang had not spoken yet, Ruizong spoke first: "Gesang, you can leave now. Chen Qing, see me off. Gesang, go back and tell you that I will not let them do anything wrong!"

"Please!" Chen Qi turned sideways to see the guests off.

Gesang came to Chang'an this time to bear a secret mission, and negotiating with the Tang Dynasty was just one of the unimportant missions. The most important thing is that with the identity of an envoy, it is much more convenient to act. According to the regulations on the mission, he had to leave after finishing his work. If he left now and the main business had not started, he would not be able to stay in Chang'an again, which would be unfavorable for the major plan.

After weighing the pros and cons, Gesang decided to endure it and returned to peace and said, "Your Majesty, Gesang is ordered to come to discuss peace, and I would like to ask your Majesty to allow it."

Princess Taiping took over the conversation: "Peace discussion? Nonsense! How many times did you Tubo negotiate peace with the Tang Dynasty, and how many next time did you tear up peace agreements and send troops to harass the Tang Dynasty? You still have the face to say this!"

The Tang Dynasty and Tubo fought against peace and harmony. After decades, I don’t know how many times I have experienced. The word peace talks are useless nonsense.

For the sake of serious business, Gesang had to endure it again: "The princess didn't know that Gesang came with twelve points of sincerity. Great Tubo really wanted to be friends with the Tang Dynasty. Great Tubo Zan Pu Ji De Zuzan was willing to be brothers with His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty forever!"

Zanpu means leader, and at that time, Tubo was reigned by Jide Zuzan.

"What if it's not?" Li Longji, who had not spoken, spoke.

Gesang looked sad: "Your Highness, the Great Tubo and the Tang Dynasty are like two beautiful flowers on the Sangge tree. They should make the Sangge tree more beautiful, rather than comparing with each other and jealous."

He became arrogant and it was inevitable to talk to him. Ruizong finally agreed: "Then tell me about your conditions."

Finally getting to the point, Gesang felt relieved and responded: "Your Majesty, Jide Zuzan, based on the idea of ​​cultivating with the Tang Dynasty, there were no other requirements, just two. One was that the Tang Dynasty immediately withdrew from Shibao City, and the other was to marry a princess to the Great Tubo. Jide Zuzan said that he would definitely cherish the princess like Songzan Gampo cherishes Princess Wencheng."

"Shut up!" Princess Taiping could twist water from her face and shouted fiercely: "Gesang, you are extortion! You both withdraw your troops and marry the princess. Isn't this asking the Tang Dynasty to apologize to Tubo? It's a whimsical idea! Do you think that with your few empty words, the Tang Dynasty will retreat from Shibao City?"

It is not impossible to refute this. It is just one thing to admit that Emperor Yang of Sui did not have the courage to the ministers of the Tang Dynasty, and Chen Que and they could not find any words to question him.

Chen Wanrong thought about it and immediately had an idea and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to say!"

Ruizong was about to help the people, nodded and said, "Please speak with Aiqing Chen."

Chen Wanrong apologized first and said, "Your Majesty, my words may be a little disrespectful, so please forgive me."

As long as Gesang can be stumped, it would be a good thing. Ruizong would not blame him. He encouraged him: "I forgive you for not guilty!" He trusted Chen Wanrong.

Chen Wanrong responded and came to Gesang and said, "Gesang, I want to warn you one thing: No matter who built the Shibao City, as long as it is beneficial to China and is useful to fight against you greedy barbarians, you should do it! It is true that Emperor Yang of Sui was a tyrant, and it is also true that Emperor Taizong used him as a lesson. However, his determination to control you barbarians abroad is even more correct! The Tang Dynasty followed the previous dynasty and had the world, so he took on the heavy responsibility of expelling the barbarians!"

As soon as the words finished, a cheer sounded! All the ministers slapped their high-highs!

Ruizong nodded and smiled: "Good words!"

Princess Taiping smiled and nodded slightly at Chen Wanrong, expressing her approval.

Chen Wanrong complained and returned to the court. Several court officials around him gave him thumbs up.

Li Longji nodded slightly, and then Chen Wanrong refuted: "Gesang, you are familiar with the history of China. Do you know why Qin Shihuang stationed 200,000 troops in Jiuyuan when he unified the world?"

When Qin Shihuang wiped out the six kingdoms, he sent Meng Tian to lead a 200,000 army to station in Jiuyuan. However, not many people knew the reasons. Gesang didn't know much about this history and could not answer speechlessly.

Li Longji continued, "You don't know, right? I'm here to tell you the reason. Meng Tian's 200,000 army was stationed in Jiuyuan County to prevent the Hu people from the north. The Huns went south to attack the Central Plains during the civil strife in China. When the Qin army blocked the eastward advance by Li Mu, Qin Shihuang did not use the 200,000 army. Until Qin Shihuang destroyed the six countries, this army had never been used. Only then did the Central Plains be safe and sound."

He paused and stared at Gesang and said, "A tyrant like Qin Shihuang knows the righteousness of China, and he knows to intimidate the Huns and preserve the Central Plains, let alone our dynasty? Emperor Taizong used the defeat of Emperor Yang of Sui as a mirror, which does not mean that he abandoned Emperor Yang's determination to fight against you Tubo! Although Emperor Yang passed away, his righteousness to fight against the barbarians is still there!"

These words are passionate and loud, and make people praise them.

Princess Taiping was the first to echo: "Longi said it right! This is said thoroughly! No matter what our ancestors did, the Chinese righteousness will not be lost!"

"The prince is wise!" The ministers praised it, and even the people of Princess Taiping, Dou Huaizhen and Xiao Zhizhong, also praised it loudly.

This is Li Longji, a smart person who makes people like!

Ruizong smiled and nodded constantly: "Sanlang's words are reasonable, it makes sense!"

Gesangman thought that he could stump his ministers, but he refuted Chen Wanrong and Li Longji that he had nothing to say. Gesang would not be willing to do so. He said a little tricked: "Shibao City is close to our Great Tubo, of course it belongs to Great Tubo!"

Princess Taiping was about to refute his rogue behavior, but Li Longji waved his hand at her and said coldly: "Gesang, Tubo is also very close to my Tang Dynasty!"
