Chapter 301
Emperor, what does this mean, warn yourself?

Or are you going to support another clan to sing against yourself?

Jiang Chengxiao doesn't know much about Jiang Wei. This person has always been the Jinwu Guard, and he is only in charge of Suwei Miyagi. Can such a person be used to conquer the bandits?

No, Jiang Wei should be just a cover, and the real responsible person might be that Xue Yuxiong.

Jiang Chengxiao couldn't figure out why the emperor took off his pants and farted. If he wanted to support Jiang Wei and sing against him, he could definitely let Jiang Wei be the lieutenant general.

Why is it so troublesome?

In other words, the emperor was worried about handing over the military power to others
Well, Jiang Chengxiao thinks this conjecture is more likely.

Jiang Wei happily took Xue Yuxiong away, and when he passed by Jiang Chengxiao, he still gave him a smug little look.

Jiang Chengxiao burst out laughing in his heart, this kind of idiot should have guarded the palace gate for several years.

"Your Majesty, the subject is guilty." Yu Wenshu stood up at this time, tremblingly took off his hat and bowed down.

"The minister is so incompetent in teaching his son that he delays the important affairs of the country, loses his teacher and humiliates the country, and the minister will not be able to atone for his crime with a hundred deaths. Please punish him!"

The emperor snorted coldly, in his heart he really wanted to kill Yu Wenshu and this trash, but now he still needs Yu Wenshu to deal with the nobles in Guanzhong, so he can't punish Yu Wenshu.

"Let Yu Wenhua and be in charge of the transportation of food and grass, and go and make meritorious deeds." The emperor ordered.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!" Yu Wenshu kowtowed again.

All the ministers present were envious of Yu Wenshu. His son Yu Wenhua could still get the emperor's pardon for committing such a mistake.

After solving the matter in Qingzhou, the emperor turned to look at Pei Ju.

"Pei Shangshu, the envoy from Tubo to marry the princess is about to arrive in Luoyang, you are responsible for receiving it."

"I obey the order." Pei Ju bowed.

The Fourth Division of the Ministry of Rites is responsible for religion, diplomacy, rites and music, and enlightenment.

The Ministry of Etiquette is responsible for foreign relations.

It is not that the Jin Dynasty did not make peace with foreign countries in the past, but they all married princesses to Turks to ease the relationship in the frontier.

But since Emperor Xiandi and Jinshang completely defeated the Turks when they were in power, there have been no foreign marriages in the past few years.

No, the marriage is still here.

"The candidate for this marriage is the late emperor's Princess Zhending. After three days, our Ministry of Rites only needs to receive the envoys from Tubo."

After the court, Pei Ju talked about this incident in Jiang Chengxiao's ear.

Generally speaking, there is no difficulty, but it is a leisurely job to follow the rules and regulations.

Even though Jiang Chengxiao thinks that this marriage is actually more disgraceful than Yu Wenhua and the loss of his teacher, but now he has no power to stop it.

Seeing Jiang Chengxiao pondering, Pei Ju thought he was recalling what happened in court just now, and immediately enlightened him: "Your Highness, don't worry, some things can't be rushed."

"Pei Gong was joking, this king is thinking about getting married."

Jiang Chengxiao said: "For this marriage, my Jin family is Shangguo, and we need to discuss some other matters such as dowry."

"Oh, how to negotiate?"

Pei Ju was a little strange, the marriage system had precedents to follow, wouldn't it be enough to follow the rules, and what else needed to be changed.

Jiang Chengxiao said slowly: "Since Tubo is asking to marry the princess of my Jin family, then naturally a dowry is required."

This made Pei Ju feel refreshed.

In the past, marriages were actually for the peaceful coexistence of the two countries. It would be good if the Jin family did not pay a large amount of dowry.

When it came to Jiang Chengxiao's place, he had to ask for a dowry instead.

"Your Highness, can you elaborate?"

Jiang Chengxiao sorted out his words, and said: "Tubo's things are paid ten times to my Jin family, and the skills of the Han people cannot fall into the hands of Tubo."

Pei Ju pondered for a while, and said: "Your Highness means that Tubo should give me a large amount of dowry, but none of my Jinshi's belongings can be lost to Tubo. Your Highness is worried that Tubo has another purpose for getting married, not just to get my family. Is it the canonization of the dynasty?"

"That's natural." Jiang Chengxiao said: "Pei Gong, don't forget that Tubo is just a small country on the border, and it has only been established for a year. Even without the canonization of my Jin family, they are still the local overlords in that area."

"Nowadays, Tupan Kingdom wants me to be enshrined in court. It must have ulterior motives. Back then, Rouran used to rely on others, but after the war in Cao Wei, Rouran immediately turned his face. Ge turned against me."

Hearing this, Pei Ju immediately understood what Jiang Chengxiao meant.

"Your Highness is right, you should really be careful about this kind of thing. I am a princess, with golden branches and jade leaves, how can I let the Turpan people easily marry me?"

Jiang Chengxiao smiled slightly, and said: "Pei Gong is a loyal minister of the nation. I will marry a princess in the court, and I don't want to talk about him!"

As a loyal minister of the nation, he flattered Pei Ju without a trace, making him feel comfortable.

In fact, Pei Ju really felt that Jiang Chengxiao was right, that the Jin family was xenophobic.

In the past, there was no way to make peace with the Turks, but now the Tupan?

Sorry, you count a ball!

If the emperor hadn't insisted on going his own way and agreeing to the marriage, Pei Ju would not have wanted to do such a thing.

Marriage is really not a good thing. The Han Dynasty's marriage to the Xiongnu is still a shame recorded in history.

How can a powerful country exchange a woman's breasts for peace.

The Shandong gentry have experienced the harm of the Rouran people, and they are extremely staunch in their bones, especially the foreigners.

If the Shandong gentry were really a group of self-proclaimed peace-loving guys, when Jiang Chengxiao slaughtered the Xi clan and Shiwei in northern Xinjiang, they would have started to complain.

On this point, the Guanzhong nobles are the same.

Jiang Chengxiao sometimes thinks about it, even though these aristocratic families are the cancer of the imperial court, they are far tougher than those later literati.

Especially those rotten Confucian scholars.

Every time the imperial court conquests abroad, the aristocratic family actually does not object.

Only after the Turks, Imakami's foreign wars changed.

For a small Goguryeo, there were actually two conquests, each time nearly 60 people were mobilized.

And when it's over, there's nothing left.

If you fight the Turks, you can still get cattle and sheep, and you can also ensure the safety of the Jin Dynasty's frontiers.

But what's the use of fighting Goguryeo? Not only are there no spoils, the land can't be used, and a lot of manpower and material resources are wasted.

At the gate of Luoyang City, a group of Turpan people in strange clothes walked into the prosperous capital of the Great Jin Dynasty, and saw a scene they had never seen before.

This group of people is exactly the team of Lu Zandong, the Prime Minister of Tupan, who came to propose marriage.

"Is this the Jin Dynasty? It's really very prosperous. When will it be like this?" Lu Zandong looked at the pavilions, towers and pavilions, people coming and going, his eyes were full of confusion.

"Grand Minister, didn't the former Turks also force the mighty Jin Dynasty to bow down and surrender." A young man appeared next to Lu Zandong.

Different from Lu Zandong's confusion, the young man's eyes hide deep covetousness.

This person is the rightful lord of courtship, King Songtsen Gampo of Tupan.

This time, he came here in disguise, just to see the customs of the Jin Dynasty.

Along the way, he was deeply fascinated by this land.

When he stayed in Chang'an, he felt that Chang'an was the most prosperous city in the world, until he saw Luoyang now.

The prosperity here is far better than Chang'an, and it is worthy of being the imperial capital of the Jin Dynasty.

Lu Zandong lowered his voice and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, there are too many people with distracting eyes, so don't do this."

Songtsan Gampo snorted, but didn't say anything.

A group of people went to Honglu Temple where the Ministry of Rites received foreign envoys, and handed over their credentials.

However, unlike what they had imagined, the Jin family did not immediately send someone out to greet them, let alone entertain them with wine and food.

There is not even tea in the teacup!
"Arrogant Jin Dynasty people!"

Songtsan Gampo stood behind Lu Zandong, waited for several hours but did not see the officials of the Jin Dynasty, the only two young servants also ignored them, and always looked at people with their nostrils every time they asked questions.

Lu Zandong comforted in a low voice: "Your Majesty, this should be the strategy of the people of the Jin Dynasty. In their words, it is to dismount our power and kill our prestige."

Songtsan Gampo's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He thought that he would cross the plateau, and whoever saw him would not kneel down and bow down. He never expected to be treated like this by the people of Jin Dynasty here.

He made up his mind in his heart that after marrying the princess of the Jin Dynasty, he must torture her severely!

Just then, an official came in.

Songtsan Gampo snorted coldly, Jin Dynasty people looked good to him, so he wants to make Jin Dynasty people look good too!
"Go back, let the yamen go, and see you tomorrow, my lord."

After speaking, the official turned around and left regardless of whether the Turpan people could understand or not.

Lu Zandong: "."

Songtsan Gampo's face was so gloomy that he could drip water, and his fists were tightly clenched.
