In the Taiji Palace, hundreds of civil and military officials gradually walked in, lined up on both sides, and stood in their respective positions.

If there are attentive courtiers, you will find that this time the court will be a little different.

In the past court meetings, the people who went to court were only civil and military officials. Today, however, is different. First of all, I saw the envoys of various countries and tribes when I was ordering, and then I saw that these envoys were merged into the procession, and at the end, they also walked into the Taiji Hall together and stood at the back.

Some courtiers couldn't help but whisper, asking what the imperial court was going to do, and summoned these envoys from various countries and tribes who were usually staying in the Sifang Pavilion. But looking at the ministers who were deeply trusted by the emperor standing in front of the procession, I saw that they were unwavering, and I couldn't see anything.

Xia Hongsheng also went to the morning court this time, but he was napping at the moment, he took another big class in the academy last night, and then returned to Chang'an from Jingyang overnight, and dared to go to the court again without closing his eyes. Seeing Xia Hongsheng coming to the court, he shocked the people who ordered it.

When everyone was in place, they suddenly heard Wang De shouting: "Saint to him!" ”

The civil and military officials in the Taiji Hall then bowed down with wat and greeted His Majesty the Emperor.

Li Shimin walked out from behind and sat down on the throne.

"What do you have to do today?" After Li Shimin sat down, he glanced at the ministers and asked softly.

"Your Majesty, please repair Luoyang Palace for inspection." A courtier walked out and said loudly: "The land of Luoyang, the middle ear of the Central Plains, connecting the north and the south, and connecting the east and west, Your Majesty should be fortunate." However, the Luoyang Palace has been dilapidated since the former Sui War, and the minister thought that the Luoyang Palace should be rebuilt for His Majesty's visit to Luoyang. ”

Xia Hongsheng buttoned his nose, and saw that this person was secretly instructed by Li Laoer, and Li Laoer wanted to rebuild Luoyang Palace, so he just said it through his mouth.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see it, so many ministers in the DPRK and China immediately seconded it.

Xia Hongsheng stood at the front, seeing Fang Xuanling and the others frowning, but he didn't stand up to speak. It was Wei Zheng, who twisted his eyebrows and blackened his face, and was about to go out with his feet raised.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks this move is inappropriate." I didn't think about it, but before Wei Zheng could take a step, he was preempted by others.

Hearing that someone was taking the lead, Wei Zheng withdrew his teaching again and listened carefully.

"Oh? What's wrong? Li Shimin asked.

The man said: "Dare to ask Lord Xu, why did you build Luoyang Palace? ”

The person who came out before to propose to rebuild Luoyang Palace replied at this moment: "In the soil of Luoyang, the tribute is even, and His Majesty should patrol and facilitate the people, so it must be camped." ”

"This person ......" Xia Hongsheng resisted the official on his left and asked, "This lord, dare to ask ...... this?"

"Don't dare! Back to Xiahou, this person is the servant of the imperial history Zhang Xuansu is also! The man beside Xia Hongsheng replied.

Here, I heard Zhang Xuansu say: "Your Majesty, the ministers heard that Ah Fangcheng and the Qin people were scattered; The Qianyuan finished work, and the Sui people disintegrated. Today's strength, how can it be like Sui Ri? After the withering, the devastated people spent hundreds of millions of dollars, and the disadvantages of attacking the Sui were even worse than Emperor Yang. ”

As soon as these words came out, the DPRK and China suddenly became nervous. Xia Hongsheng was secretly happy in his heart, this uncle hangs! Dare to say in front of the courtiers that Li Lao Er is more stupid than Emperor Yang of Sui, this is to work with his life!

Sure enough, seeing Li Shimin's expression on the throne, he suddenly became angry, and asked with a tiger face: "Qing said that I am not as good as Emperor Yang, so how can I be as good as Emperor Yang?" ”

The air in the Taiji Hall was suddenly suffocated, and the courtiers hurriedly looked at their noses and hearts.

Xia Hongsheng was even more worried and looked at Zhang Xuansu - Li Laoer's question is not easy to answer, this is a proposition!

But seeing that Zhang Xuansu was neither humble nor arrogant, he still bowed and bowed, and said: "If this battle does not stop, it will also end up in chaos." ”

The hall was even more silent, Xia Hongsheng looked up and found that Li Shimin was also a little stunned on it. probably didn't expect this Zhang Xuansu to be such a tiger, and he dared to say this directly, which made him a little confused.

After a long time, Li Lao Er suddenly sighed and said, "I don't know how to think about it, so much so." What Xuansu said today is sincere and reasonable, and it is appropriate to dismiss it immediately. The day after tomorrow or to Luoyang, although the open residence is not harmed. ”

Kindness? There's something wrong with this style, huh? This has nothing to do with the main purpose of today's meeting! Which one is this playing?

Xia Hongsheng was so surprised that he didn't even take the opportunity to slap Li Lao Er at the back of the courtiers.

"Hehe, Xuan Su has always been loyal and upright, and because I have Aiqing's assistance, I have made many mistakes!" Li Shimin said with a smile: "With such a loyal and upright person by my side, I can always know my shortcomings and improve." Zhang Qing, do you know that the envoy sent by the Japanese State to study from the Tang Dynasty? ”

Hearing Li Shimin's question, Xia Hongsheng immediately understood his intentions. But for the other courtiers who didn't know Li Shimin's abacus, they were confused, and they didn't know why Li Shimin asked him like this.

"Your Majesty, Weichen doesn't know." Zhang Xuansu replied.

Li Shimin nodded, smiled, glanced at the king, and said, "Let them come in." ”

Wang De bowed and nodded, then straightened up and stepped forward, shouting loudly: "Your Majesty has a decree, declare that the country will send Tang envoys to meet you!" ”

The door of the Taiji Hall opened, and there stood outside the envoy of the Japanese State sent to the Tang Dynasty headed by the dog Mita Yun, who was dressed properly, and then walked into the Taiji Palace, and when he arrived at the middle of the main hall, a cadre of people bent their knees and knelt, kowtowed, and said: "The Japanese State sent the Tang envoy Inoue Mita Yun, the pharmacist Huiri, the Jishi Changdan, and the Takada Nemaru...... Meet the **** Shangguo, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty! I've seen all the **** ministers. ”

"Hehe, let's wait for a flat body." Li Shimin smiled on it and said.

Inugami Mita and the others bowed again, and then stood up.

"I remember that when the former Sui were in the past, the country of Er had already sent Sui envoys to our Central Plains to worship. Today, looking at the clothes and outfits, they are quite Central Plains, but they are no different from my Tang people. Li Shimin said.

Inougami Mita bowed and replied: "The land of the Wa Kingdom is ugly and barbaric, although it faces the Tang Dynasty across the sea, but the people in the country are all admiring the style of the Tang Dynasty and are proud of following the Tang Dynasty." The lords and courtiers of our country all take the Tang people as teachers, and they all follow the Tang law on weekdays, from talking and dressing to the rules of the court. Therefore, in the eyes of His Majesty, we are no different from the Tang people. ”

"Hahahaha......" Li Shimin laughed a few times proudly, and said with a very kind look: "Although the country is thousands of miles away from the Tang Dynasty and separated by oceans, it can still not forget to worship. If you have any needs, you can tell me and listen to them, and I will not treat you badly. ”

Inougami Mita was overjoyed, and immediately knelt down again, and said: "His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is worthy of being the Heavenly Khan with all the seas and all directions, Your Majesty's mind is wider than the sky, more than the sea, please ask Your Majesty for permission......"

Inugami Mita was very excited, patting Li Laoer's ass, and at the same time said his request to learn all aspects of the advanced culture of the Tang Dynasty very cleverly. (To be continued.) )
