"I'll strangle you!"
Empress Wei was depressed and wanted to vomit blood, so she couldn't say this sentence directly.
She thought to herself, what are you howling about, the ministers originally suspected that it was the palace that instructed you to kill Wu Guogong. You're howling like this now, isn't that three hundred taels of silver here?
Li Dan saw the advantage, knelt down on the ground and said: "I didn't expect that Ji Dan was instructed by someone to arrange a detailed work in the mansion of his younger brother. Presumably it was the younger brother's imprudent behavior in the past, which led to misunderstanding, please ask Your Majesty to cut off the princely title of the younger brother, let Weichen become a monk in Songshan, and die old. โ
It's all about retreating.
Su Yu made it clear that Ji Chu Ne was instructed by Wu Sansi to place himself in the mansion of Prime Minister Li Dan.
But Li Dan didn't mention Wu Sansi, and only said that he was instructed by others. The implicit meaning is that I don't believe that this is just the meaning of Wu Sansi, and think that there is also the meaning of Empress Wei or Li Xian.
Therefore, people asked to be like Wu Youxu and become a monk, so that the emperor and empress could be completely reassured.
Does Li Xian dare to agree?
If he dares to agree, he will be a prince who cannot tolerate his own brothers!
Li Xian hurriedly said: "King Xiang, please get up quickly, why is it here, why is it here!" That's all Wu Sansi and Ji Den's good advocacy......"
"Your Majesty!"
Li Dan here hasn't been appeased yet, and Princess Taiping over there is also teary-eyed, kneeling down, and said: "The courtier's sister married Xue Shao for the first time, just because her brother rebelled, and Xue Shao was ordered by her mother to starve to death in prison. remarrying Wu Youji, just because ...... It's not clear that it's dead. That's it, that's it, all in all, the minister is a hard-working person, so she will go to Tibet with her relatives. โ
Her vague words behind "just because" are even more evocative. Xue Shao was killed by Wu Ze, the empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty, so was Wu Youji killed by the Tang Emperor?
Li Xian also had a feeling that he couldn't wash himself when he jumped into the Yellow River, and said: "Don't misunderstand Taiping, it's not that I want you to be with Tubo, it's the ......."
He still wants "God" to carry the black pot.
However, before the words came out, I heard someone say in a loud voice: "Playing the Tang Dynasty Emperor, the foreign minister thinks that Princess Taiping should not be in harmony with Tibet." โ
"Who?" Li Xian looked up and saw that it was the Tibetan envoy talking about the mass.
Suddenly, a feeling of betrayal surged from Li Xian's heart. He thought to himself, you Tubo don't want Princess Taiping, say it earlier! I have worked so hard, and I am about to be scolded by people as a dumb king, so you said you don't want it, isn't this a pit person?
He was displeased: "Why? โ
On the Mass, I was also quite aggrieved, I originally felt that although Princess Taiping was a little older, her status was noble, if she could promote her to envoy to Tibet this time, she would definitely make a great achievement.
However, Cui, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, kept persuading himself to give up this idea. He said that Cui Geng and Princess Taiping had a very close relationship, and if Princess Taiping and Tubo were pro-Tibetan, I am afraid that Cui Geng would be evil. Originally, the purpose of peace was for the peace of the two countries, but what if it was not handled well and Cui Geng wanted to provoke disputes between the two countries?
Of course Cui Geng himself knows, on Gongren's teacher, a trip to Tubo caused the division of Tubo~ split. When I heard this, I was really a little hesitant.
Today, I suddenly discovered a problem that is particularly easy to ignore!
Well, she has two husbands who have been killed now. If after marrying into Tibet, Xiao Zampu has three long and two short, can he still live?
Of course, even if he thinks so in his heart, he doesn't say that.
On the Mass: "The foreign minister thinks that Princess Wencheng is the daughter of Li Daozong, the king of Rencheng, and she will marry me Tubo Zanpu Songtsan Gampo. King Rencheng is a contemporane of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, and now my little Zanpu ruler with Zhu Dan is the great-grandson of Songtsan Gampo, and Princess Taiping is the granddaughter of Emperor Taizong. The generation is not right, and it is not in line with the etiquette, so Princess Taiping should not be allowed to be married. โ
Wipe!
Not in harmony with etiquette? You Tibetan barbarians are also worthy of speaking to our Tang Dynasty?
Li Dan was angry for a while, and he couldn't refute it, so he had to say: "But I don't have a princess of the right generation to marry in the Tang Dynasty, so what can I do?" โ
On Mass, he remembered Cui's proposal and said, "It's okay, there is no suitable princess in the Tang Dynasty, and we have one in Tibet." โ
"What do you mean?"
"I have the eldest princess Chili Malian in Tibet, who is eighteen years old, gentle and virtuous, and can be matched with the prince of the Tang Dynasty."
Li Xian was slightly stunned and said, "This is okay?" โ
On the Mass, he asked, "Why not?" The princess of the Tang Dynasty can marry Tubo Zampu, and of course the princess of Tubo can also marry the prince of the Tang Dynasty. โ
In fact, there are still small differences.
Mo thinks that it is humiliating for the two Han people in the Tang Dynasty to be in harmony, generally speaking, the two countries are in harmony and marrying a princess, and the status is slightly higher.
For example, Datang often named the daughter of the clan as a princess and married the lord of the surrounding feudal kingdoms to restrain him, can it be said that Datang is afraid of them? The Tibetans also often married their princesses to the lords of the vassal countries such as Niboro, Xiao Bolu, and Tuyuhun, taking the opportunity to control the government of their country.
Of course, this is not absolute, according to various actual situations, marrying a princess of another country is not a humiliation.
In Datang's mindset, it has always been the princess of his own country who has been married, and he has never thought of marrying a princess in China. Now that Li Xian is thinking about it, it is not impossible to marry a Tubo princess.
He asked, "Then why don't you Tubo princesses marry me, but the prince of the Tang Dynasty?" โ
On Mass, he smiled bitterly: "I have only such a princess in Tibet who has not yet married, but she is not in line with His Majesty's generation. โ
In fact, this kind of kinship doesn't care about seniority at all. But he had talked about things before, and it was impossible not to think about it now.
After a pause, he added on the mass: "I, Tubo, am willing to reconcile with the Tang Dynasty, but I am not afraid of the Tang Dynasty. Your Majesty's chosen prince must be noble enough, preferably your own son. โ
"That's ......"
The request for Mass is not excessive, but Li Xian is really embarrassed. Without it, he now has two sons, one is Li Chongfu and the other is Li Chongmao.
Which one should marry the princess of Tibet?
The princess of Tubo married because she was a woman of different races, and she was bound to not be a wife. But at the same time, Tubo is not a small country, and the princess of Tubo cannot be treated slowly.
Therefore, no matter who marries the princess of Tubo, it means that this person has become the de facto prince of the Tang Dynasty.
How does this mean?
He was puzzled: "This is a big matter, and let me think about it." โ
"Your Majesty!" Princess Taiping said loudly: "My sister thinks that Li Chongfu, the king of Chen, and the princess of Tubo are very compatible, so it is better to let him marry the princess of Tubo." โ
Li Xian waved his hand and said, "I have my own opinions, don't say anything more." โ
Princess Taiping said: "Of course, Your Majesty can decide who will marry Princess Tubo." But...... How should the case of Ji Xian be handled? Do you want to find out? โ
"You ......"
Li Xian instantly understood that this was Princess Taiping making conditions with herself.
Either make a compromise by herself and make Li Chongfu the crown prince, or Princess Taiping digs deep into the case and involves Empress Wei. As the sufferer, people have this power.
In other words, after being pressed step by step by herself and Empress Wei, Princess Taiping was really fed up and decided to fight back.
"What ...... this?"
Empress Wei understood that he was indeed wronged, but Li Xian didn't know, so he was a little hesitant at that time.
Li Dan immediately added strength, also knelt down on his knees, and said: "The younger brother thinks that Li Chongfu, the king of Chen, has a valuable character and can marry the princess of Tubo." โ
"The minister seconded the proposal!" Hulala, Princess Taiping and the officials of the Xiangwang family knelt on the ground.
Empress Wei said angrily: "Nonsense, Li Chongfu is suspected of murdering Prince Yide, how can he marry Princess Tubo?" โ
However, no one paid any attention to him.
The people continued to say in unison: "The ministers think that Li Chongfu, the king of Chen, can marry the princess of Tubo."
Most of the other courtiers did not stand or kneel.
Anyone with a little vision understands that most of the unhealthy tendencies in the court today, including today's events, are caused by Empress Wei's desire to be a female emperor. If Li Chongfu can be appointed as the crown prince, he will be able to stop this unhealthy trend as soon as possible. It stands to reason that he should support King Xiang and Princess Taiping.
However, at the same time, Empress Wei is now a little emperor, and if she dares to advise today, she may be retaliated against in the future. In addition, this move will inevitably help Princess Taiping and King Xiang to deal with the suspicion of today's son.
As for a small number of Wei Hou's irons, they don't dare to be this budding bird. Everyone has shit on their buttocks, and now stand up, what can I do if Ji Xine's case involves me?
Swish!
For a while, everyone's eyes were on Cui Geng. Let's see which side he is going to stand on at this critical moment.
