Above the court, Li Shimin was sitting on the throne, and the ministers of the three provinces and the courtiers who were trusted by Li Shimin stood on both sides. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The people in the hall were all standing upright, with solemn and serious expressions on their faces - although Li Shimin had not yet told them what had happened after arriving in the hall, looking at Li Shimin's face, he guessed that something bad had happened.

Although the ministers were puzzled, Li Shimin was silent, even if they were puzzled in their hearts, they did not dare to take the initiative to ask.

The air in the Taiji Hall was solemn, there was a dead silence, and the needles could be heard. Li Shimin was on the throne with a gloomy face, and the ministers below were even careful to breathe.

"Your Majesty, the country of the Japanese sent Tang Hall to ask for a meeting!" The janissary outside the door walked in and reported.

Li Shimin took a slow breath: "Let them in." ”

Hearing this, the ministers reacted, it turned out that the matter was related to the Wa Kingdom?

So what could it be?

I saw that the envoy of the Tang Dynasty of the Wa Kingdom walked into the Tai Chi Hall under the leadership of the dog Santian Yun, stepped forward in a hurry, bent down deeply, and bowed: "The envoy of the Tang Dynasty sent by the Wa State to meet His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!" ”

"Inougami Mita, you have been in Chang'an for more than a year. In the past year or so, you must have also seen the appearance of Datang. Tell me, what do you think of Datang? Li Shimin's face was expressionless, his tone was slow, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry.

Inougami Mita hurriedly bowed and saluted, and replied: "Back to Your Majesty's words, the Tang Dynasty seen by the minister is a well-deserved kingdom of the Celestial Empire. The government is harmonious, the civil and military are dedicated, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Datang can be called the most powerful country in the world today. ”

Li Shimin was still expressionless, his tone was slow, and he gently tapped his knuckles on the armrest next to him, while continuing to say: "Then, from your point of view, if I go down with a will now, and teach the Tang Dynasty soldiers to set foot on Fujiwara Jing, what will be the result?" ”

As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden sound of gasping in the Taiji Palace, and the ministers in the hall were all taken aback, and they didn't understand why Li Shimin suddenly said such a thing.

Inougami Mita Yu's face immediately changed, and he quickly knelt on the ground with a plop: "The minister is panicked!" The minister didn't know where the Wa Kingdom had offended His Majesty, and he actually made His Majesty have such a mind! The sin deserves death! I beg Your Majesty to make it clear, and the Japanese Kingdom will definitely change its past wrongs, Your Majesty! ”

The ministers in the palace were also shocked, and they all looked at Li Shimin, not understanding why this was suddenly the case.

"Your country is indeed guilty of ten thousand deaths!" Li Shimin slapped the handrail with one palm, and said angrily: "Since the former Sui Dynasty, there have been many ronins in your Japanese kingdom who have not done their jobs, gone to sea as homeless people, and plundered merchant ships at sea. When you arrived in Datang, your Wa Kingdom still did not discipline you, connived at these pirates to plunder passing merchant ships, and even repeatedly came to our Datang to rob the people along the coast. To the north to Shandong, to the south to Quanzhou, Minzhou and other places, all of them are subject to the sea of your country. However, I was far away from the ocean in the Wa Kingdom, but I still did not forget the courtesy of my courtiers, so I never blamed him more. I didn't expect that my tolerance would make the country even worse! The Wa State did not want to rectify the pirates, but tolerated and nurtured the traitors, shielded and connived, acquiesced in their plunder, and even had ministers involved in raising pirates! This time, he was so bold that he dared to even kidnap the founding county marquis of the Tang Dynasty! I ask you, doesn't the Wa Kingdom take Datang in its eyes, don't you take me in your eyes?! ”

"What?!" There was an uproar in the Taiji Palace, the Marquis of Datang County was actually taken away by the Japanese pirates?! Who is it?

Inugami Mita's face turned pale, and he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty is angry!" Your Majesty is angry! Minister, minister really doesn't know about this! The Japanese kingdom was originally formed by a few islands, and there was little arable land, and the people were not enough to support themselves, so they went overseas to make a living. The plague of pirates, the Wa Kingdom also suffered. The court of our Japanese kingdom has also encircled and suppressed pirates many times, and has always treated those who go to sea as thieves, once they are caught, they will be killed on the spot, and they will not be tolerated, and there will be no protection and connivance, Your Majesty! I beg Your Majesty to be clear! ”

"That founding county marquis, could it be that he grew wings and flew to the pirate's ship?!" Li Shimin asked coldly: "I ask myself if I treat you well, but the country is so bold and reckless!" I will give you a month, and after a month, if my county marquis cannot come back unharmed, then I will send the Tang Dynasty soldiers to personally go to the Wa Kingdom, set foot on the land of your Wa Kingdom, and find him! ”

"Your Majesty, breathe the wrath of thunder!" Seeing that the emperor was excited, the ministers hurriedly bowed in unison and saluted and said.

"Your Majesty, dare to ask Your Majesty, who is the county marquis who was taken away by the pirates of the Japanese Kingdom?" Yu Shinan took a step forward and asked.

Inougami Mita's face was frightened white, but in the winter, sweat poured down from his forehead like a river, and he quickly kowtowed and asked: "Please let Your Majesty make it clear, which marquis is not taken away by pirates, and the minister should try to rescue him immediately!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty! I don't know who was taken captive, so let's find a way to save people immediately! Cheng Yanjin ran out and shouted: "Didn't the king of Hejian County take the water master to Ryukyu?" Which county marquis will be captured by pirates......"

Cheng Yanjin's face changed suddenly: "Your Majesty, please lead 2,000 troops to Ryukyu to meet with the king of Hejian County, exterminate the pirates, and save people back!" ”

Seeing that Cheng Yanjin's face suddenly changed, and he wanted to go in person, most of the people were puzzled, but there were also a few people like Cheng Yanjin, whose faces changed suddenly.

"Your Majesty! The minister asked to lead 20,000 troops, and meet with the sailors of the king of Hejian County, if he can't find anyone back, the old minister will work with the king of Hejian County to level the country! Duan Zhixuan also stepped forward, with a cold face.

Inugami Mita is even more frightened of the six gods without a master, even if he is as cunning as him, suddenly faced with such a situation, it is difficult to calm down for a while, and can only kowtow vigorously and beg: "Your Majesty is angry!" Rest your anger! The minister immediately rescued the Hou Ye! The minister immediately went in person and begged His Majesty to tell him which Hou Ye was taken captive, and the Wa Kingdom should do its best to kill those pirates and rescue the Hou Ye! I beg your majesty to appease the wrath of thunder! ”

The Son of Heaven was furious, ambushed millions of corpses, and bled for thousands of miles. This is not just a rhetoric! Inugami Mita naturally knows it.

Although there is an ocean separating them, if the emperor is extremely angry, I am afraid that he will not be able to stop the Tang Dynasty's soldiers! After coming to Datang for a year, Inugami Mita has a better understanding of Datang, but he is more afraid of Datang.

"Hou Xia Hongsheng of Jingyang County, went to Quanzhou by my will, opened a sea route, encouraged maritime merchants, and supervised the history of Quanzhou's assassination, allowing him to act cheaply." Li Shimin's eyes were full of coldness, staring at Inugami Mita Yu tightly, and his voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth: "Xia Hongsheng was hated by the pirates and was ambushed and taken away by the pirates because he found out that the pirates of the Japanese Kingdom had set up a business in Quanzhou, sold the looted goods, and destroyed the maritime merchants supported by him on the shore!" ”

"What?!" There was another uproar in the temple.

Inugami Mita didn't come up in one breath, but he felt that his eyes were dark and he collapsed to the ground. (To be continued.) )
