God-level prince of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 591 Messenger

Why Li Shimin is happy, I am afraid only Li Chengqian understands best.

Because of Tuli Khan's relationship.

Here we are going to talk about who Tuli Khan is.

Tuli Khan: Ashina, whose name is Shibobi, the son of Shibi Khan, the little Khan of East Turkic.

He is a pawn secretly arranged by Li Shimin, and he is one of the few pro-Tang factions among the Turks. In return, Li Shimin also gave a lot of support to the Turkic Khan.

When it comes to Tuli Khan, we have to talk about another Khan, the real ruler of Turks, Jieli Khan who once signed the Weishui Covenant with Li Shimin.

Tuli Khan is only a small Khan under Jieli Khan.

But the strength is not low.

When the name of Tuli Khan came out.

Liu Hongji said: "Your Majesty, at this critical time, this messenger cannot be seen."

Why can't it be seen? Because of the special period, and Li Shimin's status is noble, how can he meet a small envoy from the enemy?
Moreover, they didn't know that Tuli Khan was a pro-Tang faction. If they knew, they probably wouldn't say so.

Someone in the same team as Liu Hongji also said: "Your Majesty, we have a Weishui treaty with Jieli Khan, and we must not meet with the Tuli Khan's envoy in private! In case we hurt our friendship!"

"Your Majesty, you are the Son of Heaven, what are they? How dare you come to see Your Majesty!?"

These people are really pedantic.

Li Chengqian had no choice but to curse.

"You guys are really pedantic! If we don't see you as envoys from a small country, wouldn't that hurt our big country? Besides, Jieli Khan has already violated the covenant since he invaded the territory of our Tang Dynasty. Why should we keep it?" John? It's extremely pedantic!"

Li Chengqian's words made everyone feel ashamed, and Li Chengqian would not say anything about this kind of thing.

They also don't know the relationship with Li Shimin of Tuli Khan.

At the same time, in order not to let the Turkic people know, Li Shimin only talked about it with Li Chengqian.Even if Li Shimin didn't say anything, Li Chengqian knew about the powerful relationship. Among the crowd, only two of them were awake.

Therefore, when Li Chengqian said this, Li Shimin was still very pleased.

"I think it can be seen, you all step back, let Gao Ming come to see the envoy on my behalf!"

In terms of rank, how could a small khan on the other side match up to such a high rank as Li Shimin.

But in order to show that he valued it, and without losing face, it was undoubtedly the best choice for Li Chengqian to come forward.In addition, Li Chengqian is also a minister, and he can also be in politics, and his career is second only to Li Shimin.

Anyway, the other party came here on behalf of Khan, and his rank is naturally not low. At the same time, Li Shimin only let Li Chengqian know about his relationship with Tuli.

At the same time, the words spoken with the Tuli Khan envoy must not be known.

All the ministers and others shouted wildly: "Your Majesty is wise! The ministers and others stand down!"

At the same time Li Chengqian also said: "Yes, Your Majesty!"

Afterwards, Li Shimin walked towards Li Chengqian and said softly, "Find out how the situation is going!"

Li Shimin just couldn't rest assured, that's why he said this.

Li Chengqian naturally knew it, so he proposed:

"Your Majesty, it's not bad to listen to our conversation behind the curtain."

Li Shimin really wanted to hear what the envoy had to say, but he couldn't be there, but when Li Chengqian said that, he was overjoyed and said, "I'm listening behind the curtain. Good job!"

After that, he walked behind the curtain.

At the same time, Li Chengqian summoned: "Come here, let the messenger come in!"

After finishing, a Turkic man came in from the outside. This man had a mustache and looked a little fragile, but judging from his eyes, this man's eyes were very vicious.

A kind of viciousness of a hunter, but to Li Chengqian, this person is really nothing.

The person looked around and quickly adjusted his gaze.

Seeing Li Chengqian here, he said:

"The Turkic Paleken has met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty on behalf of the Turkic Khan!"

The envoy saluted, showing great respect.

But there is no lowliness at all. As a messenger, this person is very qualified.

That kind of temperament is neither humble nor overbearing.

At the same time, he was able to recognize Li Chengqian as the crown prince in the first time. I am afraid that there are few people in the world who can be like him.

Li Chengqian admired this person very much, if he wasn't so weak, then he must have the talent of a general.

"Paleken, you don't need to be too polite. Why did you come to my Tang Dynasty this time?"

At this time, there were only Li Chengqian and Xue Rengui in the main hall, and Li Shimin hid behind the curtain, listening to the words in front of him.

"His Royal Highness! I wonder if His Majesty is here?"

"Originally, he is not only the prince of the Tang Dynasty, but also the order of the minister. If you have anything to do, you can just talk to the king directly!"

When Paleken heard this, there was a trace of shock on his face, and then he recovered.

"Yes! Your Royal Highness, in fact, Tuli Khan sent Paleken here this time because he wanted to confirm something."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"At the beginning of the trade between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks, when the wool was exchanged for grain and the iron pot, everyone from the Tuli Khan to the ordinary herdsmen cheered heartily. Everyone shouted, and in the future they only need to cut some You can feed yourself with wool, and you don’t need to fight any more. There is harmony within the Turks!”

When Paleken said these words, Li Chengqian understood that what Paleken would say next was probably about trade.

Li Shimin behind the curtain couldn't help nodding at the same time, because the Turkic people had become less scary, and maybe they could become docile sheep.

"Then?"

"Since the beginning of spring, your country's wool trade with Turkic people seems to have decreased a lot, so Turkic Turkic sent Paleken to understand the situation and bring some information along the way."

"It's like this. It's the time for spring plowing. Our Tang Dynasty has invested a lot of manpower and material resources in order to have a good harvest in autumn. Therefore, the trade has been somewhat reduced. Therefore, this situation is not only in the trade of Tuli Khan, but also in Xieli Khan. The reduction in production is even more severe. Of course, if the spring plowing resumes, we will naturally increase the purchase, and we will take care of Tuli Khan first."

Li Chengqian's implication is that not only you, but Jieli Khan are more ruthless, you are considered good.

Li Chengqian's reply made Li Shimin behind the curtain nodding his head.

One is to let Paleken have a good confession, and the other is to stabilize Tuli's heart.

"Then I don't know when it will be restored? You know, we have a lot of wool that we can't sell."

Paleken asked again.

"After the spring plowing, it will probably resume next month."

"So that's the case. If that's the case, then Tuli Khan must be very happy."

"I heard from you, what information did you just share with me, Datang?"

Li Chengqian suddenly thought that Paleken had said such a sentence.

Paleken nodded and spoke.
