The Tang Dynasty: The Concubine of the Holy Soldier

Chapter 669

Chapter 669

"Is there some conspiracy?"

The envoys behind him all stared at the eldest son of East Turkic with stern expressions.

I'm afraid that the son of East Turkic will reveal that he and others planned to launch troops against Datang.

Cheng Yaojin and other ministers of the state were fiercely attacking the envoys of the East and West Turks.

I didn't expect that the eldest son of East Turkic would stand up on his own initiative, and stared at the eldest son of Eastern Turkic with some confusion.

Bai Jingyi just stared at the prince of East Turkic coldly, with a very serious expression on his face, thinking: "Presumably this prince of East Turkic is still unwilling to give up, I don't understand that it is too late to submit to the Tang Dynasty now .”

The ministers at the dinner party also stared at the eldest son of East Turkic.

I want to see what he can do.

The prince of East Turkic, who was watched by everyone, walked towards the front of the hall calmly.

Li Er's guards on the side couldn't help but put their hands on the knife, ready to get out of their bodies at any time.

I saw the eldest son of East Turkic arrived at the main hall, knelt down in front of Li Er with a "plop", and cried to Li Er: "Tang Wang Mingjian! Although I, East Turkic, committed crimes against the people of Tang Dynasty , but now that Khan is dead, I, East Turkic, have been longing for Tang Dynasty for a long time, and specifically begged the king of Tang to make East Turkic a vassal state of Datang!"

After hearing this, the ministers below fell silent.

No one expected that the eldest son of East Turkic actually knelt down to the saint directly in front of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, begging the Tang Dynasty to bring East Turkic into a vassal state.

Originally, even if the words of the envoys were too sweet, these ministers felt that it was unrealistic.

But this son of the East Turks is the real leader of the East Turks.To be able to plead guilty so humblely, it seems that the Eastern Turks are really afraid of Datang.

Li Er also looked at the prince of East Turk below with a rather moved face.

No one could have imagined that the son of the Eastern Turks could be so humble.The eldest son of Eastern Turkic was undoubtedly higher than the envoy, and he could naturally represent the entire Eastern Turkic.

If these words came from the mouth of the Eastern Turkic prince, then I am afraid that the Eastern Turkic is sincerely surrendering to the Tang Dynasty.

And Cheng Yaojin and other ministers were also very surprised to see the son of East Turkic kneeling in front of Li Er.After all, envoys and princes are of completely different ranks.

Once the Eastern Turkic Khan died, the East Turkic son was equivalent to the leader of the entire East Turkic, the decision-maker of the country.

But the decision-maker of a country actually knelt down and begged for mercy in front of the Holy Majesty.Presumably it also represents the idea of ​​the entire East Turkic.

The ministers of the aristocratic family also looked at this scene with a little surprise.

After all, the eldest son of East Turkic has an extraordinary status, and he will be the future Khan of Eastern Turkic. If he requests to be included in the Tang Dynasty as a vassal state in front of the Holy Majesty.

Then it must not be fake.

Bai Jingyi looked at the prince in front of him with disdain.He knew that the son of East Turkic was just trying to slow down the army.After all, these Turkic people have no humanity and dignity at all, and they cannot be called human beings at all.In Bai Jingyi's mind, it's perfectly normal to act like this for self-protection.

After all, animals are animals.

After seeing Li Er's expression, the East Turkic prince was overjoyed.

As the eldest son, the future Khan of the Eastern Turks, now that he can present such a big gift to the King of Tang, these people must not doubt his purpose.

The son of East Turkic quickly struck while the iron was hot and said: "Tang Wang Mingjian! I, East Turkic, committed crimes against the people of Datang before, and we Eastern Turkic have also deeply realized our mistakes, and we are very serious about Datang. The common people are very guilty, so this time to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty, I, East Turkic, are willing to use 40 cattle, 40 head of sheep, and 10 taels of gold to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty, only to ask for the forgiveness of the Tang King and the people of the Tang Dynasty !"

The attitude of the Eastern Turkic prince was very sincere, and the amount of tribute reported was huge.

He has full confidence that these ministers and the king of Tang will blush at these tributes.

And what he said was very euphemistic, and he didn't expressly say that he would be included in the vassal state of Datang.

But he just said that it was because of his own mistakes that he paid tribute to Datang with 40 cattle, 40 sheep and 10 taels of gold, just to ask for forgiveness from the king of Tang and the people.

But the eldest son of East Turkic is very sure in his heart.

After all, Datang is now a celestial kingdom, although he did not explicitly say that he would become a vassal state of Datang.

But as long as Datang accepts this batch of tributes, then Datang will definitely not attack the East Turks because of face in the future.

Sure enough, Li Er's expression was also a little moved.

Compared with the tributes of the Western Turkic envoys, the quantity brought by the Eastern Turks is simply attractive.Ten thousand taels of gold, 40 cattle, and 40 sheep.These supplies are simply what Datang needs.

Li Er began to wonder whether to agree to the request of the East Turkic prince.

"After all, the East Turkic attitude is so sincere now, it seems that it is a true surrender to Datang. If Datang really included Eastern Turkic as a vassal state, it is presumed that Eastern Turkic will not attack Datang. And it is still possible Using the Eastern Turks to contain the forces of the Western Turks can also reduce one enemy."

"If Datang can make good use of the Eastern Turks, it will be extremely beneficial to Datang."

Li Er was completely jealous.

"As long as I agree, then Eastern Turkic will officially become a vassal state of Datang, and those tributes will completely become items of Datang. Datang can lose a powerful enemy, or use this powerful enemy to contain Western Turkic."

This benefit is simply too tempting!
"And as long as there is the containment of the Eastern Turks, then on the Turkic Grassland, as long as the Tang Dynasty sends troops to assist the Eastern Turks. Then the power of the Western Turks is destined to be destroyed by both sides."

"The Great Tang can bring the Turkic Grassland into the Great Tang's territory without any effort. At that time, I will naturally be praised by the world. I will undoubtedly be the number one wise emperor from ancient times to the present."

Li Er began to have various thoughts in his heart.

Cheng Yaojin and other ministers of the state were also completely dumbfounded.

Originally, the behavior of the East Turkic son was sincere enough to represent the East Turkic thoughts.

There is no need to worry about the son of East Turkic breaking his oath after returning to China.

Moreover, the tribute given by the East Turks can be described as a huge temptation.

With these tributes, Datang will not have to worry about armaments at all.

40 cattle and 40 sheep are enough to feed the army for several years.

If these cattle and sheep are used to reproduce, then it can be multiplied several times.

These are properties, and priceless treasures at that.

These ministers and ministers have been thinking in their hearts what to do.
