Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 1398 Confidence
The faces of the Tubo envoys eased a lot. Although the emperor said it was perfunctory, at least he gave them Tubo face. You have to go down the steps.

"It turned out to be Duke Lu, and Duke Lu must have had no intentions." The Tubo envoy said in a deep voice.

Su Cheng smiled and said: "Old Cheng, this is your fault. As the saying goes, you don't slap someone in the face when you hit someone, and you don't expose your shortcomings when you scold someone. It's a bit rude of you to do this."

Cheng Yaojin and other ministers couldn't help laughing after hearing this, and even Li Shimin couldn't help laughing. Although Su Cheng seemed to be making peace, he was actually affirming Cheng Yaojin's curse words.

The Tubo envoy came up again after hearing the anger. What does this mean?Isn't this still calling them Zanpu a bitch?
What made it even more difficult for the Tubo envoys to accept was that the person who said this was Su Cheng, Lord Rongguo!

The Tubo envoy was dissatisfied: "How can Rong Guogong say that? We sent gifts and letters on behalf of our princess. As the saying goes, you don't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face. Isn't it a bit unreasonable for Rong Guogong to say that?"

All the ministers couldn't help looking at Su Cheng, the Tubo envoy actually went to Su Cheng's mansion to give gifts?Is this trying to buy Su Cheng?Songtsen Gampo must be crazy, right?

Li Shimin was calm when he heard this, he was not afraid of Su Cheng being bribed at all, because Su Cheng donated millions of guan, how many guan would he have to give to buy Su Cheng?

500 million guan or 1000 million guan?
Can Songtsan Gampo make up 1000 million guan even if he sells all the iron?Not to mention Songtsan Gampo, even the emperor of the Tang Dynasty would not be able to spend so much money, so Li Shimin was very relieved and never doubted that Su Cheng would be bribed.

Su Cheng said with a smile: "You don't mention me, but I'm still angry. Speaking of which, Princess Zhenzhu and I are old friends. Changle and Zhenzhu are also very close. Changle and Zhenzhu have not communicated in the past two years, but I have never received one." Zhenzhu's letter."

"Then, yesterday you Tubo people suddenly sent a letter. It was a letter from Princess Zhenzhu. It was not for Changle, but for me. This surprised Changle and me."

"But this letter, after looking carefully, there was something wrong, so Chang Le took out the letter sent by Princess Zhenzhu to compare it, and found that this letter was not in Princess Zhenzhu's handwriting at all, but someone copied it."

All the ministers couldn't help being in an uproar when they heard this, and even asked someone to write a letter to Su Cheng in the princess's handwriting. Who did it?Who else?Of course it is Songtsan Gampo.

"Shameless!"

"Yeah, it's really shameless!"

"How can you be so shameless?"

The Tubo envoy blushed immediately when he heard this, and said loudly, "Mr. Rong, don't spit on people. It was handed over to me by the princess's maid. How could it be fake?"

Li Shimin smiled and said, "I won't say whether it's fake or not. I'm very curious about what was written in the letter."

All the ministers immediately pricked up their ears, they were also full of curiosity about this, the fire of gossip in the hearts of all the dignitaries in the court was blazing, and they were not inferior to the old ladies in the market.

Su Cheng said with a smile: "It's nothing else, the letter said that I should persuade His Majesty not to send troops."

The Tubo envoys were relieved when they heard this. In fact, they didn't know whether the letter was written by the princess, or what was written in the letter.

It turned out that the purpose was the same as theirs, they were all to stop Datang from sending troops.

However, he couldn't help his heart suddenly, Rong Guogong actually said it directly in front of the emperor and all the ministers. Does that mean that Rong Guogong didn't intend to help prevent the emperor from sending troops?
All the ministers couldn't help laughing when they heard this. They understood that since Su Cheng said so calmly, it meant that Su Cheng didn't want to stop the emperor from sending troops at all.

And they felt that even if Su Cheng wanted to stop the emperor from sending troops, he couldn't do it. At this point, no one in the world could stop the emperor from sending troops.

The Tubo envoy quickly said: "Your Majesty, the foreign minister's mission to the Tang Dynasty this time is to congratulate His Majesty on the destruction of Goguryeo, and secondly, to repair the peace between the two countries."

"Our Zanpu once sincerely asked His Majesty to marry the princess. Although His Majesty finally refused, we Zanpu have always admired Datang and wanted to make peace with Datang forever!"

Li Shimin said with a sneer: "I did reject Songtsan Gampo's request to marry the princess of the Tang Dynasty, but I opened up the exchange with Tubo. I also hope that there will be eternal peace between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo."

"But you Tubo brazenly invaded Tuyuhun, Tuyuhun is my vassal state, do you Tubo people still have Tang Dynasty in their eyes? Do you still have Tian Khan like me?"

"Tuyuhun is my vassal state, and I will never give up Tuyuhun. Either your soldiers and horses from Tubo withdraw from Tuyuhun and promise not to attack Tuyuhun again, or I will take Tuyuhun back with one blow!"

The Tubo envoy said in a deep voice: "We, Zanpu, have always admired Tian Khan, and we have no intention of resuming disputes with the Tang Dynasty. Tuyuhun has not been a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty since ancient times."

"Tuyuhun is closely connected with our Tubo, and the people of Tuyuhun are like a family with our Tubo people. Therefore, we, Tubo, will never give up Tuyuhun."

"Now that the right time, place and people are in our Tubo, if His Majesty wants to send troops, he will only repeat the same mistakes. Please think twice, Your Majesty!"

"We, Zanpu, really don't want to see the son of the Tang Dynasty shed blood on the battlefield, let alone see the people of the two countries fighting against each other, and even less want to see the people of Tuyuhun go through the suffering of war again."

"Your Majesty, as the Khan of Heaven, is broad-minded, benevolent, and loves the people. I hope that His Majesty will not send any more troops for the sake of the people of Tang Dynasty, the people of Tuyuhun, and the people of the world!"

"As long as His Majesty doesn't send any more troops, then we, Tubo, would like to regard Datang as the kingdom of heaven and never invade Datang."

"And if His Majesty sends troops, there will be no peace for us in Tubo and Tang Dynasty. Our Tubo is located on a plateau that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and our Tubo people come and go like the wind."

On the way here, the Tubo envoys thought many times how to persuade the Tang emperor not to send troops.

Therefore, he did not know how many times he had recited these words along the way, so when he said them eloquently, he could be said to be impassioned and hearty.

These words are understood with reason and moved with emotion, both persuasion and threat, firm but not hard, neither humble nor overbearing.

The Tubo envoys thought that these words were perfect. If they couldn't persuade the Emperor of Tang Dynasty and other ministers, who else could?

So after he finished speaking, he stood there with a confident smile.
