Chapter 707 Just Speak Up!

After a while, they saw a group of Tubo missions wearing cool silk robes walking in.It's just that these Tubo envoys were still wearing a cloak and a felt hat on their heads, which seemed a bit nondescript.

"Little envoy Shang Nang sees His Royal Highness King Jin of the Tang Dynasty!"

The little old man in the lead bowed his hands to Li Xuan respectfully, and then turned his head to look at a subordinate behind him.

The subordinate immediately understood, and hurried forward, placed the small wooden box in his arms in front of Li Xuan, opened it a little, and a golden light shone inside.

Immediately, the small wooden boxes were covered again.

"This is the mere gift that the envoy prepared for his visit to His Highness King Jin this time. It is not a respect. Please don't take it too lightly, His Highness King Jin!"

"It's okay, whoever comes is a guest, please sit down!"

Li Xuan nodded slowly, with a very polite attitude.

Although I really wanted to beat to death these Tubo hozens who had led troops to attack the border of the Tang Dynasty not long ago, but they were envoys, and they even came to visit him specially, and even took the strange box they were carrying with them. He exchanged rare treasures for money and bought him twenty gold bars as a gift.

The etiquette is so thoughtful, he can only treat each other with courtesy.

After all, he brought such a heavy gift when he came to the door. If these hozen were not the envoys of the feudal kingdom that he had always wanted to kill, they would have become his distinguished guests!

It's a pity that the person who came came with a ghost in his heart.

For the handsome and kind-hearted King of Tang and Jin in front of him, Shang Nang felt relieved.

He sat on the sofa with a group of subordinates according to his words.

However, just as he sat down, Shang Nang sensed something was wrong.

this sofa?
It is hundreds of times more comfortable than the sofa in his home!
And this house is so bright, and in such a weather, without putting any ice, it is still very cool...

Moreover, this house is also extraordinary, I am afraid that there is no such luxury in the Tang Palace!
Thinking of the scene he saw when he just came in, Shang Nang couldn't help being absent-minded for a while, and even a little shocked.

Even if the king of Jin lived in such a remote village, he was so extravagant?

"According to rumors, the Li Family Village of His Royal Highness King Jin is the paradise of the Tang Dynasty. The farmers here live and work in peace and contentment, and there are great Confucianism who teach the children to read and write. Moreover, every farmer here saves hundreds of dollars in their homes. The houses are strong and clean, making Every farmer in the village lives a fairy-like life!
His Royal Highness Prince Jin is the sage king of the Tang Dynasty. Seeing him today, his reputation is indeed well-deserved! "

After regaining his senses, Shang Nang hurriedly said humbly.

Li Xuan smiled lightly, "Your envoy, don't be polite, you are an envoy of Tubo, and logically speaking, you are a guest of the Tang Dynasty. And this king is the prince of the Tang Dynasty. Everyone is busy with business, so there is no need to go around in circles. Just speak up if you have something to say!"

"His Royal Highness Prince Jin really speaks quickly!"

Shang Nang laughed lightly.

Then, after pondering for a moment, he suddenly remembered something, and a look of embarrassment flashed in his eyes.

He raised his head and glanced at Li Chongyi, Li Chengqian and others beside Li Xuan.

"I don't know who are these people next to His Royal Highness King Jin?"

"These boys are all the disciples of the great Confucianists in this king's manor. As for these two, they are the personal guards of the king, and they are deeply trusted by the king. It doesn't matter if the Lord Shang has something to say."

Li Xuan said directly.

Hearing this, Shang Nang blinked his eyes, and a sudden realization flashed across his face.

Sure enough, this King Jin also wanted to sit on that throne.

Thinking about it, Shang Nang said slowly: "Presumably, His Royal Highness King Jin also knows that the small envoy came this time to plead guilty to Datang!"

"This king knows about this matter!"

Unexpectedly, Shang Nang, an old thief, dared to tell him about this, Li Xuan couldn't help but sneered, his face darkened.

"How dare the small country of Tubo dare to raise troops against our Tang Dynasty? According to my king's intention, whoever raises troops against my Tang Dynasty should be led by this king to destroy their country, take their king captive, and let the whole country pay compensation. My Great Tang's loss!"

The gloomy tone made Shang Nang shudder.

Behind him, all the Tubo envoys were shocked and looked out the door with vigilance.

I'm afraid that a group of soldiers with knives will come in from outside and hack them to death.

His Royal Highness King Jin has no previous convictions for this kind of thing.

Just when the Tubo envoys were panicking, Li Xuan suddenly chuckled, and there was some regret in his words.

"However, this time you are holding twenty catties of gold to visit me, and I didn't provoke you. I can only treat you as guests!"

"Abandoning the sect for praise?"

Suddenly, a ridiculous thought flashed in Shang Nang's mind, his eyes narrowed, and he subconsciously looked at Li Xuan.

It's just that the more I look at it, the more I feel that the King Jin of the Tang Dynasty in front of him misses his abandoned sect and praises him so much!

The same age, the same low-key luxury, but with great ambitions!
Therefore, when Shang Nang looked at Li Xuan, he couldn't help but have a trace of fear and a trace of respect.

Seeing this, Li Xuan couldn't help being taken aback. Why did he feel that the old man in front of him was a little weird and not serious at all?
Thinking about it, there was something strange in his eyes.

After a while, Shang Nang came back to his senses, and said respectfully to Li Xuan: "Young envoy Shang Nang once again, thank you His Highness King Jin for your generosity!"

This time, his attitude was infinitely better than when he first came here.

On the side, Li Chengqian, Li Chongyi and others couldn't help but look at each other.

At this moment, they couldn't understand at all why the group of Tubo envoys didn't want to stay in the Honglu guest house, why they specially exchanged the jewelry they carried for these golds, and then gave it to the master as a meeting gift!

Even if they wanted Master to intercede and let Datang treat them kindly, wouldn't they have made a mistake?
Could it be that they have all forgotten that a few years ago, my master seemed to have thrown all the Tubo envoys outside the city to feed the wolves?

Moreover, there seems to be another name among them called Shang Nang...

Thinking about it, Li Chengqian and the others couldn't help but have strange expressions on their faces.

At this moment, Li Xuan's face was full of impatience.

To be honest, he hates these thieves in Tubo as much as Goguryeo and Japan.

In particular, there may be a niece of his own who wants to marry Songtsen Gampo in the future?

Even though it was impossible with him around, Li Xuan was still full of shock when he thought of this!
"Because of the fact that you brought twenty catties of gold, this king has already been very polite to you, allowing you to enter the Zhuangzi and meet this king. But, don't push yourself too hard, just speak up if you have anything to say.

However, you must not forget that Tubo dared to plunder the border of our Tang Dynasty. Now the two countries are still countries of enemies. If you give this king ink, this king will wear out my patience. This king will directly call someone to throw you out ! "

As he said that, Li Xuan gave Shang Nang a cold look again, "Speaking of which, it seems that a few years ago, there was also a young Tubo thief named Shang Nang who dared to flirt with my Tang woman on the streets of Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty." , this king directly asked someone to break his limbs, and threw them into the forest outside the city to feed the wolves!"

"You bastard and that thief still have the same name, I don't know what relationship you have with that thief?"
