However, this time Cui Geng really guessed wrong.

Xi Xun was surprised and said: "I Tubo Zampu, I intend to marry Princess Anle of the Great Zhou, what's wrong?" ”

"What? Quiet...... Princess Anle? ”

"It's Anle Princess Li Bao'er. She is not only known as the first beauty of the Great Zhou, but also the daughter of the prince of the Great Zhou, and more importantly, this girl is already double ten years old but has not yet spoken. Is it all right, arranged by God, to marry my family Zampu? ”

Arrangement? Arrange you for the ghost?!

Cui Geng's mind was racing, and he had already thought about why he guessed wrong. In the original history, Li Bao'er married Wu Chongxun at the age of sixteen. In the future, when the Tibetan envoy asked for peace, it was impossible to target her.

In order to perfunctory the Tibetan people, Li Xian recognized Li Nunu as his righteous daughter, named the princess of Jincheng, and pro-Tubo. Thinking about it carefully, Li Nunu is the granddaughter of the late prince Li Xian, Li Dan is Li Xian's younger brother, and the slave is regarded as a righteous daughter, but it is a mess in terms of generation, which shows how rushed it was at the beginning.

Of course, even if the object of Tubo and his relatives was changed to Li Bao'er, Cui Geng couldn't agree.

It's not that he has any thoughts about Li Bao'er, but this matter is really bad for Da Zhou.

As a lesson from the past, His Majesty Li Er sent Princess Wencheng and his relatives, which promoted peace between the two countries, which seems to be a good thing, right?

However, what about later? China has always lost more than won against Tibet.

Say that the generals of the Great Zhou Dynasty can't do it, why did Li Jing, the god of the Tang Dynasty, also lose the battle in the face of Tubo? I am afraid it is a bit far-fetched to explain the use of soldiers like gods in Qinling. At the very least, it can be said that the quality of individual soldiers in the two countries is about the same.

In fact, the craftsmen and seeds brought by Princess Wencheng have greatly improved the national strength of Tubo, so that there is no generation difference between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty in the military industry. Coupled with the topographical advantages of Tibet, Tubo can win more and lose less.

A striking example is that a hundred years after Princess Jincheng and her relatives, Tibet completely declined, and it was difficult to compete with China.

Without it, the descendants of the craftsmen brought by the two princesses have been Tibetanized. The ability of the Tibetan military industry once again lagged far behind that of the Central Plains.

Now, it is the craftsmen and even the second generation of craftsmen brought by Princess Wencheng who are dying of old age, and the Tubo military industry is not accepting this, and it is simply an enemy to make peace again.

Of course, Cui Geng really can't say this reason, and no one is convinced.

The reason is very simple, first, this statement seems too small-bellied, and it loses the demeanor of the heavenly kingdom. Second, Datang does not have the concept of maintaining advanced science and technology at all. Since the founding of the country, it has become a common practice to give seeds to craftsmen and craftsmen from neighboring countries. His Majesty Li Er, the eternal monarch, didn't realize that there was a big problem with doing this, and others didn't realize it.

Similarly, it is difficult to get everyone's approval on the grounds that "harmony" is detrimental to the dignity of the imperial court. During the Tang Dynasty, there were many grandmasters and daughters who married Fanbang, and even the Xi people had made peace with the Tang Dynasty. It can't be said that Datang is even afraid of the Xi people, right? On the contrary, there are still some clan daughters who, with the support of their mother country, have the power of these states.

Cui Geng was helpless, and decided to talk about things from the "timing", and said: "Tubo gave up attacking the six edicts in exchange for peace, if I agreed to come down in Da Zhou, wouldn't it be like signing an alliance under the city?" You Zampu's face is good-looking, where is my Da Zhou Tianzi's face placed? ”

"That's a mistake!" Xi Xun said hotly: "Once the relationship is completed, my family Zampu has to be called the "grandmother" of Da Zhou Tianzi." Whose face is glorious, do you still need to ask? ”

Cui Geng said: "Even if you talk to the Great Zhou Tianzi, it is not appropriate. ”

"Why?"

"Because the officer has two conjectures. First, before your envoy sent me to Da Zhou, he had already received instructions to make peace with Da Zhou. It can be seen that your country's attack on the Six Edicts has not been very smooth, and you have already thought about how to withdraw without losing face. ”

"And the second?"

"Second, why did your envoy travel day and night to see my Great Zhou's Depot Club? Why did the envoy can't wait to see His Majesty and ask for peace after watching the DUPO meeting? I'm afraid that your envoy is intimidated by my Great Zhou national strength and doesn't dare to compete with Great Zhou, right? Since the Great Zhou is strong and the Tibetan are weak, why should my Great Zhou follow your wishes? ”

Actually, Cui Geng's two speculations are not for Xi Xun, but for the courtiers that the threat of Tubo to the Great Zhou is not so serious, do you really want Princess Anle to be in harmony?

For ordinary clan girls, marrying the lord of Fanbang is not a loss, and she would rather be the head of the chicken than the queen of the cow.

However, for the real princess of the Tang Dynasty, she is afraid of being surrounded by fine clothes and food on weekdays. For example, Princess Taiping once became a monk in order to avoid harmony.

Are you sure you want to agree with the opinion of the Tibetan envoy and offend the crown prince Li Xian?

As long as everyone objected, and the Tibetan envoy had no right to change the object of peace, this matter would be temporarily disturbed.

As for later? In another year or two, Wu Zetian will be in charge of Bintian. When the time comes, Li seems to be a big treasure, and he will have a lot of room for maneuver.

These words really had some effect, and the eyes of the ministers couldn't help but flicker.

Of course, these words only have an effect on the courtiers, but they are useless to Her Majesty the Empress herself.

She can do it to her grandson for a rumor. If the matter of the Six Edicts can be successfully resolved, how can you care about the life or death of your granddaughter?

Of course, the Tibetan envoy Xi Yanre also understood this, sneered, and said, "These are just your guesses, and this envoy disdains to argue. Now, I only ask the Great Zhou Tianzi one sentence, I Tubo please make peace, and I am willing to marry the Great Zhou as a good friend of Qin and Jin, I don't know if the Great Zhou Tianzi can agree? ”

Wu Zetian groaned: "I thought it was ......"

"Your Majesty, no!" Cui Geng had no choice, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed repeatedly.

"Cui Aiqing......" Wu Zetian persuaded earnestly: "I know that you are loyal to the crown prince, and you are unwilling to let Princess An Le marry Tubo and suffer. However, state affairs are important, private affairs are light, and public affairs should not be abolished because of private affairs! ”

"The minister prevented Princess Anle from marrying Tubo Zampu, it was for the sake of the public!"

Wu Zetian's face was slightly gloomy, and he said unhappily: "I can't hear it." ”

Originally, Tubo was really afraid of Da Zhou, and it wasn't that he couldn't marry the princess. In the concept of these years, Cui Geng really belongs to the unreasonable side.

Cui Geng's mind was racing, and he couldn't think of anything suitable, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "Even if the princess wants to marry Tubo Zampu, he has to marry a living person, right?" Now that Tubo Zampu is on an expedition to the Six Edicts, who dares to say that he will win? What if you die in battle? Even if he wins, what if the epidemic is epidemic in the place, and he dies of disease? Even if he didn't die, what if the country took the opportunity to rebel? It's better to wait for him to retire from the army, and then talk about peace. ”

"Aren't you looking forward to something good?" Xi Yan's hot heart trembled with anger, and said, "Why are there so many accidents?" I, Tubo Zanpu, are blessed by heaven, and I will be able to turn evil into good fortune and become auspicious in trouble. I see that you obviously don't want Princess Anle to marry me Tubo, so you came up with an excuse! ”

"Hmph, you Tubo Zanpu can be blessed by the heavens? Then why did he succeed to the throne at a young age? How old did his dad live? ”

……

Cui Geng caught the mistake and omission of Xi Yan's hot and squirted wildly, and the two sides kept arguing. However, almost everyone can see that Cui Geng is not very responsible for this matter.

In the end, the old prime minister Zhang Cambodia really couldn't stand it, and said: "Your Majesty, the matter of harmony is very important, why don't you discuss it later?" ”

Wu Zetian didn't want to give Cui Geng too much face, nodded and said, "It's hot!" ”

"In!"

"Please go to the Golden Pavilion for a while. Regarding the matter of harmony, there will definitely be an explanation on the day of my birthday. ”

There are only about 20 days left before Wu Zetian's 80th birthday, and after thinking about it for a while, he nodded and agreed.

This is certainly not good news for Cui Geng.

First of all, Wu Zetian originally interrupted him to add the title of "Tongluantai Pavilion Pingzhangshi", but now he has changed his mind. In the end, in Wu Zetian's will, he just removed Wu Yizong's Yongzhou Mansion and made Cui Geng a veritable Jing Zhaoyin, ranking three grades.

In this regard, Cui Geng also expressed his understanding, and now he is against Li Bao'er and his relatives. After becoming the prime minister, wouldn't it be more difficult for Wu Zetian to promote this matter?

However, he understands Wu Zetian, but people don't understand him.

For a time, with the help of well-intentioned people, the gossip that Cui Geng was against peace and proximity was so that the loss of the holy family was flying all over the sky.

There are even people who are extremely vicious and authentic, the reason why Cui Geng doesn't want Li Bao'er to be close is because he has some ulterior thoughts about Li Bao'er. You don't see, countless people have seen it, has Li Bao'er ever ridden with him?

Li Xian's family is quite worthy of Cui Geng's love, after all, no one wants Li Bao'er to marry Tubo and suffer. However, it is of little use. Even Li Xian secretly passed the word to Cui Geng, but he still didn't care about Li Bao'er and his relatives, and the position of prime minister was more important. Besides, his thin arms can't twist his thighs, how long can he stop him?

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, Wu Zetian's eighty full birthday had arrived.

All the officials of the court and the foreign envoys must enter the palace to congratulate Wu Zetian on his birthday. The marriage of Princess Anle Li Bao'er must also be settled on this day.

After thinking about it for so many days, Cui Geng still didn't think of any good way to stop Heqin, and came to the direction of the palace with a depressed face.
