Chapter 157 Sudden awakening

Morning court, Tai Chi Hall.

At the entrance of the hall, Li Chengqian was waiting for Li You to appear early. He wanted to know in advance whether it was reliable for his recommendation to Li You this time.

Soon, Li You and Yin Hongzhi appeared.

"Fifth brother, you are back." Li Chengqian greeted him affectionately.

"My brother, please see the prince's brother." In public, the etiquette must be thorough. Li You greeted.

Li Chengqian asked in a low voice: "Fifth brother, your uncle told you, how about it? Is there a way?"

Li You smiled and said, "Brother, how can I let you down? Don't worry, I won't let you sit on wax."

Li Chengqian was overjoyed and glanced at Li Tai, waiting to see his joke.

Now, there are many people close to Li You. They really want to say hello to Li You. Seeing Li Chengqian is there, they can only nod to him from afar or wave to him.

Li You said to Li Chengqian: "Brother, I'll go and say hello to everyone."

Seeing Li Chengqian nodding, Li You left to Cheng Yaojin and others.

"Your Highness."

"Your Highness."

Everyone greeted Li You affectionately.

Many people with ulterior motives found that Li You had a good reputation, and so many ministers surrounded him and talked to him. Not only Li Ke, but Li Tai, but even Li Chengqian envied Li You's popularity.

At this time, Xiao Qian came over, and Li You hurriedly came forward to say hello to him and said, "Mr. Xiao."

"Your Highness, you are back. After you have finished your work, go to my mansion to be a guest." Xiao Qian said.

"Okay, sure, I'm going to ask you if you have something to do." Li You said with a smile.

Xiao Dongchang didn't understand why his old man got closer to that guy Li You.

"Go to court!" With a call, morning court began.

Seeing Li You, Li Shimin said happily: "Li You, when did you arrive?"

Li You said: "Father, my son-in-law received the imperial edict and rushed back overnight last night."

"Well, it's not bad. You know everything. Look at the Tubo national letter, what is written on it?"

Li You took the Tubo letter from Wang De.

Now, everyone's eyes focused on him, and they wanted to know if he could understand the text of this Fanbian.

Li You turned on the translation function and recited: "Your Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, my great Tubo king Songtsen Gampo..."

It turned out that it was a request and a kiss.

Songtsen Gampo asked to marry Li Shimin's princess and promised to establish a peaceful, friendly and friendly neighborly relationship with the Tang Dynasty.

Li You thought while wondering, Tubo proposed marriage probably a few years later, and Princess Wencheng is only 10 years old now.

"It seems that the Tubo people should have come to explore the reality of the Tang Dynasty because of the Tuyuhun incident." Li You said in his heart.

"Buzz, buzz." There was a burst of discussion in the hall. Everyone was not talking about the content of the Tubo letter, but was amazed at the fact that Li You could understand the Tubo words like the heavenly book.

Most people have a pity that they have lost a great opportunity to make money.

Li Tai wanted to cry very much, but he didn't understand why Li You became a monster.

Li Shimin was also very interested and asked, "Li You, how could you know the words of Tubo?"

Li You said: "Father, the Tubo language is made of Indian Sanskrit, because it is close to each other, and it is both believed in Buddhism. However, the Tibetan language, that is, Tibetan language, is also relatively close to Chinese.

The institute has a business department. Erchen has a lot of dealing with merchants and has a lot of contact with Tubo merchants. Erchen has come into contact with a Tubo teacher and learned from him."

"Oh, that's it." Li Shimin stopped asking this question.

He said, "Dear friends, what do you think of the Tubo people's request? Should you agree or reject them?"

Li Tai was angry. He hated these damn Tubo people in his heart, which made him embarrassed again. He said: "It is really a delusion to dare to marry my princess of the Tang Dynasty, a small country in Tubo.

The son-in-law suggested refuting his request and letting them go back to the wild land."

"I'm going to discuss it."

"I'm going to discuss it."

The ministers did not know Tubo. They looked down on the Tubo people in their hearts, just like Li Tai's thoughts.

Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji, Xiao Gan and others did not understand Tubo either. However, they thought it was inappropriate to deal with it simply, but they did not know what to say.

Xiao Gan asked, "Your Highness, do you know the situation in Tubo? How do you think we should deal with it?"

Li Shimin said: "Li You, tell me about the situation in Tubo?"

Li You had long wanted to give the senior officials of the Tang Dynasty a sense of the situation in Tubo, otherwise the decisions made by the court would definitely be deviated.

He said: "Tubo is a very weak country in people's impression, but it is not the case.

Six years ago, Songtsen Gampo took office as Zampo at the age of twelve. In just three years, he unified the divisions of Tubo…”

Li You talked about the political, military, economic and cultural aspects of Tubo.

When the Tang Dynasty executives heard that Tubo had a population of more than 3 million, with a unified country, a prosperous economy, and hundreds of thousands of troops, they suddenly realized that a powerful country had risen in the western border of the Tang Dynasty.

"Buzzing" and there was another rumbling of discussion in the hall.

Li Shimin asked, "Dear friends, what do you think about the Tubo people's proposal?" At this time, he had already thought of marrying.

Li Shimin has a famous saying: "Marrying a daughter is better than a hundred thousand soldiers."

During the Zhenguan period, Li Shimin widely adopted a policy of marriage and martyrdom, and with Tubo, Tuyuhun, Turks, Tiel, etc., it did play a positive role in dismantling and dividing ethnic minorities and strengthening ethnic integration.

Tang Jian, Minister of Rites, said: "Your Majesty, I agree to marry Tubo. Tubo is located on the plateau and it is not easy to conquer. If a war breaks out with it, it will definitely last for a long time. This is a waste of people and money.

I think it is the best choice to establish good-neighborly and friendly relations with them, and avoid conflicts with them."

I heard that Tubo is so powerful that ministers basically tend to get along with Tubo.

Even the warlike military generals were unwilling to fight such an enemy on the plateau.

Everyone talked for a long time, and their opinions were basically consistent.

Li You has now become the backbone of Li Chengqian. He said, "King of Qi Li You, what do you think?"

Li Chengqian's words reminded everyone that everyone thought they should listen to the opinions of His Highness King Qi.

Li Shimin asked: "Li You, what do you think?"

Li You has been thinking about this issue since yesterday. He does not agree with marriage, but marriage is a historical practice and cannot be changed by saying changes. He can only take advantage of the situation. He said: "My dear masters are right, marriage is a good way.

However, marriage kinship is divided into passive marriage and active marriage.
