Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 489 Sudden loss in Chang'an
This time Xue Yantuo's chief envoy was named Tulishi, another son of Yinan.

Honglu Temple guest house.

Tulisi sat with disheveled hair, not because he was abused by Tang officials, on the contrary, this time he was treated with courtesy by Honglu Temple officials, and what he ate and used were all good things.

The reason why his hair is disheveled is because Prince Tang ordered someone to give him a piece of special soap for him to take a bath.

In other words, Tulishi just took a shower, and it smells delicious.

He smelled his arm, and sighed to his relatives: "Now I finally know why Xieli must go south."

"Why?" Followed him and asked.

Tu Li said in a low voice: "The land in the south has a warm climate, and the cattle and sheep will not freeze to death even in the coldest time. If we can convert the farmland to pasture, our people will not only be less tortured by the severe cold weather, The population can continue to grow.

In addition, the number of Han people is dozens of times that of ours. If we can take them all as slaves, how powerful will we be?
Also, these Han people have been passed down for a long time. I used to only love Han silk, but now, I like this Han soap.

The Han people have a vast land and rich resources, and there must be more good things, if it can be done for me.”

Having said this, Tu Lishi bit his tongue.He remembered that this was the territory of the Tang people, maybe the walls have ears.

The follower said: "Master, our current enemy is the Turkic people, it's better not to think about these things now."

"I know." Tu Li said, "However, Father Khan was registered as a Khan by the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, and I heard that this Tang crown prince is very young, which is really unacceptable."

The follower persuaded: "Prince Tang is nothing to worry about, but there are many generals in the Tang Dynasty, and there are plenty of supplies. We are not bowing to the prince, we are only temporarily bowing to the army of the Tang Dynasty. Besides, the master is right, Prince Tang At such a young age, can he rule such a huge empire, maybe he will be the next Bobi."

What Bobi?

Thinking of this person, Tu Lishu sneered.

Once the Turkic royal family, now the bereaved dog.

He is as young as Prince Tang.

"Yes."

Two days later, the officials of Honglu Temple took Tuli away to meet the prince.

In the carriage, Tu Lishi quietly looked at the imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty, silently admiring the bustling metropolis.

What was revealed in the eyes was a hint of vague ambition.

Such a prosperous city should be ruled by a stronger person.

On the side of the road, Feng Zhidai, a spirited young man, watched Xue Yantuo's envoy's carriage slowly heading towards the palace, thinking differently in his heart.

After Feng An's surrender, he wrote to the imperial court to allow one of his sons to study in Guozijian.This is Feng An showing his loyalty and taking the initiative to send the hostages over.

But in fact Li Zhiyun is very clear, Feng An's mother has dozens of sons, is this Feng Zhidai a ball?
But for the sake of stability in Lingnan area, Li Zhiyun held his nose and agreed, as if he didn't know.

In fact, what Li Zhiyun didn't know was that this Feng Zhidai had a famous eunuch descendant named Gao Lishi in history.

"My lord, someone is coming to the house." A servant found Feng Zhidai.

"I see." Feng Zhidai nodded and looked away.

But he said that Tu Lishuo entered Chengtianmen and came to Taiji Hall.

At this moment, he finally met the young Prince Tang.

He stepped into the main hall, his eyes swept across the crowd, the civil and military forces of the Tang Dynasty were juxtaposed, everyone was silent and did not look sideways.

After ten steps forward, Tuli Shi stopped politely.This is when he was resting in the guest house of Honglu Temple, the officials of the Ministry of Rites of the Tang Dynasty taught him the precautions.

It is said that if he takes two steps closer, he will be hacked to death like an assassin.

"Tuli Lost, on behalf of Xue Yantuo Khan, I respectfully greet Tang Crown Prince." He touched his chest with one hand and bowed.

"Gu'an, you are welcome."

Tu Lishi straightened his back and glanced at the young Prince Tang.

Too young, younger than himself, such a person can rule such a huge empire, God is really unfair!
Look at me?

Still looking at me?

Under the crown, a smile appeared on Li Zhiyun's face.

Interesting, Yi Nan's son is very interesting and energetic.

Immediately, Tulishi presented Xue Yantuo's tribute, which included animal furs of various colors, some war horses and precious stones.

After that, the two sides cut to the chase.

"Father Khan has something to say, if Datang is willing to support Xue Yantuo, Xue Yantuo will be a vassal of Datang forever, guarding Beimo for Datang, and ask the prince to send troops immediately to kill Jieli and restore peace to the grassland people."

Li Zhiyun said: "I know this matter alone, don't be impatient, you will definitely send troops in the future to help you wipe out the Turks. The people of the grasslands are also the people of our Tang sages, you don't have to worry."

what?
When did the people of the grassland become your people of the Tang Dynasty?

Tuli slandered endlessly.

In general, this conversation is mainly about one topic.

Xue Yantuo asked the Tang Dynasty to send troops to help, but Li Zhiyun said that he would definitely send troops.But as for when to send troops, Tu Li Shi never got a definite answer from Li Zhiyun.

He was a little anxious, but helpless.

Because Xue Yantuo now has a request from the Tang Dynasty, he can only humbly ask Li Zhiyun to send troops as soon as possible.

And Li Zhiyun said that he will do it as soon as possible.

As for when this is as soon as possible, only Li Zhiyun himself knows.

Anyway, what he wants is that Xue Yantuo and the Turks will lose both sides.

However, Li Zhiyun didn't lose everything.The two parties agreed that Xue Yantuo would exchange horses and slaves for tea, salt, and outdated weapons from the Tang Dynasty.

Daily necessities are fine, but for ordnance, Li Zhiyun did not agree, but said that it would be decided according to the circumstances.

This made Tu Lishi very unhappy, but due to the situation, he could only keep his unhappiness in his heart.

An hour later, Li Zhiyun ordered someone to send Tuli back.

After Tuli lost, Pei Ju got up and said, "His Royal Highness, this Tuli is arrogant and dissatisfied."

"Gu knows." Li Zhiyun said: "Gu didn't promise him anything, which was far from what he expected. Of course he was dissatisfied."

Yuchi respectfully said: "The barbarian bitch, who wants to beg His Highness, but dares to be dissatisfied, is afraid that he is also an ambitious generation."

Li Zhiyun laughed, "Jingde is right, but I feel that grassland people are all ambitious people."

Yu Shiqian, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, asked, "Your Highness, do you want to have a banquet to receive Tulisi?"

"Banquet?" Li Zhiyun shook his head and said: "The common people are not rich, how dare they treat the barbarians with wine and meat. This generation is afraid of power but not virtuous, so there is no need to be like this."

Are you kidding me, entertaining barbarians with wine and meat?
He is not the prodigal son of Yang Guang.

"Speaking of this, Yu Gong thinks that resting with the people is the most important thing, and the court needs to lead by example, increase revenue and reduce expenditure. After this, the big banquet can be saved."

"Yes."

Immediately afterwards, Li Zhiyun ordered Pei Ju and Yang Gongren to discuss the mutual market with Xue Yantuo, and then announced the disbandment of the dynasty.

As for Tuli, after returning home, the more he thought about it, the more he became angry. He felt that his trip to Chang'an seemed to be of no use.

It seems that something has been done, and it seems that nothing has been done.

That young Tang prince does not seem to be a waste.

In a few days, Tu Lisi finished his trip in Tang Dynasty and started to return to Xue Yantuo.

And Li Zhiyun didn't pay too much attention to the loss of Tuli and the split of the grassland, which had already achieved his goal. Now he was thinking about growing up, and then sent Xieli away in a wave.

Interestingly, Feng Zhidai sent him something unexpected.
