Stubbornly thinking and arrogant, he didn't put Datang in his eyes at all.

Ridiculously.

The hundred officials of the Tang Dynasty were still submissive, and they didn't dare to offend this envoy from the Turks at all.

After all, they had just experienced the humiliation of the Weishui Alliance.

The horror of the Turkic army has brought a great psychological shadow to Chang'an City.

There is only one purpose for this visit.

The Tang Dynasty must provide the Turks with soldiers, horses, money, and food for the war!

As soon as these words came out, the government and the opposition were angry.

Many officials in Datang were furious, but they had to swallow their anger.

They know.

The new Turkic Khan Ashina Helu is even more terrifying than the previous Jieli!

He was able to dominate the Turks in just a few months and raise 500,000 Turkic cavalry to attack the Western Regions.

What does this mean?

Since the Turks can lead 500,000 cavalry to attack the Western Regions, they can also lead 500,000 cavalry to attack the Tang Dynasty!

This can be described as a catastrophe for Datang at this time!

back then.

Jieli only led about 200,000 cavalry to completely destroy the Tang Dynasty.

If Ashina Helu led 500,000 cavalry to come, Datang would not even be able to make any resistance, and it would be completely wiped out.

This is the real dimensionality reduction attack!

The combat power of the two sides is so unequal, Datang is really helpless.

If you're weak, you're going to be beaten!

If you are weak, you will be bullied!

This is the cruelty of history!

The law of the jungle has always been the same!

At this time.

A rather dilapidated palace in the northwest corner of Chang'an City looks crumbling in the wind and rain.

Here, it is the famous Daming Palace!

Gao Yang was sitting in front of an old man with gray hair.

"Grandpa, have you heard? The Turks have sent an envoy to our Tang Dynasty. "

Gao Yang said as if chatting.

The old man in front of her is none other than Li Yuan, the current Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!

The reason why Gao Yang came to Li Yuan was naturally not her original intention.

Behind it is the eldest grandson Wuji and the mastermind of the debate.

"What are you talking about!? Why did the Turkic envoy suddenly come to the Tang Dynasty? Could it be that the Turks have invaded the south again? What about your father?"

As soon as he heard the word Turkic, Li Yuan shuddered.

He spent more time dealing with the Turks than Li Er and Cheng Yanjin combined.

That's why.

Li Yuan knew better than anyone how powerful and terrifying the Turkic cavalry was.

At the beginning of the Weishui Alliance, he naturally heard some news.

"No, grandpa! The reason why the Turkic envoys came to Chang'an was actually to provide us with soldiers, horses, food, and grass, and they were attacking the Western Regions. After the Weishui Alliance, our Datang became a vassal state of the Turks, and according to the provisions of the covenant, if the Turks launched a war, our Datang must provide soldiers, horses, food and grass. "

Gao Yang analyzed in great detail.

Of course.

This stupid woman doesn't really understand anything.

These words were also taught by the debate machine to her.

"That's good, that's good. As long as we don't attack our Datang, everything is easy to say. Isn't it just soldiers, horses, money, and food? Give them that! Our Datang still lacks this thing?"

"Gao Yang, you have to persuade your father and the emperor well, but you must not offend the Turks! We can't afford to provoke the Tang Dynasty, if the Turks are not satisfied, let your father send two more women to make peace. Stability is the most important thing!"

Li Yuan said bitterly.

In his eyes, his own life is naturally the most important.

Soldiers, horses, money, food and Datang women are all objects that can be sacrificed!

When he was in power, he taught Li Er the same way.

From a certain point of view, Li Er's current foreign policy towards the surrounding countries has been influenced by Li Yuan.

"Cut! Father is no longer in Chang'an City. "

"What did you say!?"

"My father secretly left the Tang Dynasty and wanted to go to Yizhou, which is under the jurisdiction of Great Qin, to find the eldest son. For the sake of a son who has nothing to do, his father doesn't even want the Tang Dynasty. "

Gao Yang pouted, still unable to understand.

It's just a son!

Can there be Tang Jiangshan important?

Father didn't know what to think.

"Shhh

Li Yuan frowned, and his heart suddenly shook.

Li Er's eldest son who went to the people, he had also heard this story.

But Li Yuan never believed it, thinking it was just a joke.

Now it seems that it should be a real hammer.

On the other hand.

Li Er secretly left Datang, doesn't that mean that now Chang'an City has no leader?

"Grandpa, you don't know, the Taiji Hall is already noisy today. The auxiliary ministers Du Ruhui and Cheng Yanjin, who were left by his father, couldn't suppress those courtiers at all. Many people were reluctant to accede to the Turkic demands, and there were even those who said that they would break off diplomatic relations with the Turks. "

"It just doesn't make sense!"

Hearing this, Li Yuan stood up directly, his wrinkled old face full of anger.

Are those courtiers confused?

The Turks are so terrible that they even want to break off diplomatic relations with the Turks?

Isn't that a burn?

Gao Yang saw all this in his eyes and continued: "Grandpa, now that the dragons in Chang'an City have no leader, there must be a figure who presides over the overall situation to come out and take charge. Now that the crown prince is dead, the kings of Wu and Wei are arguing, and there is no one who can stand up to the girders. I hope that grandpa will come out in person to stabilize the situation. "

"Okay!" Li Yuan agreed without thinking, but as soon as the words came out, he hesitated a little: "It's just ...... Now that I am trapped in this Daming Palace, the surrounding supervision is tight, and I can't even get out of this small square city, how can I go to the Taiji Hall to administer justice?"

"Grandpa, it's enough to have your words! With me Gao Yang here, no one will embarrass you, so you can rest assured that you can go with me!"

Gao Yang confidently assured.

Of course, she doesn't have so much energy, and she can buy all the guards inside and outside the Daming Palace.

All this is naturally the handiwork of the eldest grandson Wuji!

"Okay! Then the old man will go with you! I haven't been to the Taiji Hall for a long time, this time, the old man will make up his mind!"

Li Yuan nodded arrogantly, and seemed to have found the feeling of being the emperor of the Tang Dynasty again.

......

Imperial Palace, Taiji Palace.

Hundreds of civil and military officials gathered!

In the main hall, all kinds of noise and noise are endless.

It no longer even looks like a symbol of the supreme power of the Tang Dynasty, but more like a vegetable market on East Street in Chang'an.

Du Ruhui and Cheng Yanjin stood at the head of the hundred officials, trying their best to maintain order, but there was really no way.

Which of these people in front of you is not a high authority?

How could they care about Du Ruhui and Cheng Biting Jin?

"Don't make any noise! Lao Du, think of a way! You can't go on like this!"

Cheng Biting Jin was sweating profusely, and he was very anxious.

His loud voice couldn't suppress the situation.

"What can I do? Look at the people standing here, which one is not a relative of the emperor, and the other is not a noble meritorious?"

Du Ruhui was also angry enough.

Regret it!

His Majesty should never have been allowed to leave in the first place!

If I knew that this kind of thing would happen, even if it was to give us ten princesses of the Du family, it would be impossible for me to let Your Majesty go to Yizhou.

"No! The Turks deceived me too much. Now that they are gathering troops and horses to attack the Western Regions, it is simply unreasonable for us to let the Tang Dynasty contribute people and money. "

"What do you know? The Turks have gathered 500,000 soldiers and horses, what kind of combat power is that? If we don't agree, the Tang Dynasty will be wiped out in an instant. When the time comes, more soldiers, horses, money, and food will be lost. "

It's just that the Turkic envoy was too desperate to rob the people's girls on the streets of Chang'an City.

According to the news obtained by Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, Zhi Zhi Sili robbed 18 beautiful women in a row in just three days, 15 of whom were tortured to death, and the remaining 3 were unable to take care of themselves and went crazy.

Chang'an City is now full of complaints, if we agree to the Turkic conditions again, it is estimated that it will cause the anger of the heavens and the resentment.

"

"Dog's day Turkic dogs! Lao Tzu really wants to cut them alive one by one!"

"Don't act impulsively, the overall situation is important!

Courtiers, everyone has their own ideas, and no one has a unified opinion.

Du Ruhui and Cheng Yanjin kept maintaining order, but it still had no effect.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

At that moment, a loud voice rang out.

The Taiji Hall was silent in an instant.

Everyone looked out of the hall in amazement.

The Emperor!?

How did he get here?

Wasn't he under house arrest in Daming Palace by His Majesty?

Just when everyone was surprised, Li Yuan strode in.

"Hehehe, it's really a vicissitude of life! It's only been a few years, and the people in this Taiji Hall don't know me?"

Li Yuan's laughter was like an old dove at midnight, which made people feel chills all over their bodies when they heard it.

"Ministers and others see the Emperor!"

was reminded by Li Yuan like this, and the hundred officials remembered to salute one after another.

"That's it, I can't stand your courtesy, this old bone. "

Li Yuan waved his hand in a strange way.

"Emperor Taishang, I don't know what you are doing when you come today?"

Du Ruhui took a step forward and asked.

Meantime.

He glanced at Cheng Biting Jin.

Cheng Biting Jin comprehended and quietly wanted to quit the Taiji Palace.

Li Yuan suddenly appeared in the Taiji Palace, this matter is not trivial!

Who let him out?

Is someone doing internal response or is Li Yuan in Taoguang?

At present, the most important thing is the control of the twelve guards in the capital!

These soldiers and horses are all in the hands of Cheng Yanjin and Wei Chi Jingde.

Du Ruhui was worried that someone would mutiny, so he was ready to let Cheng Yanjin go out to have a look.

"Hehehe, General Cheng doesn't have to be nervous. The old man has no intention of competing for the throne, and he is alone this time. "

Li Yuan smiled.

As a political veteran, Li Yuan naturally understands Du Ruhui and Cheng Yanjin's worries.

At this time, Cheng Yanjin had just walked to the door of the main hall, and found that the guards on the left and right were indeed his cronies, so he breathed a sigh of relief, returned to the main hall again, and asked: "I don't know if the Emperor Taishang is here today, what do you have to ask?"

"Hmph! If the old man doesn't go out in person, Datang will be lost in the hands of you juniors!"

Li Yuan said quite unruly.

"Emperor Taishang, how do you say this?" Du Ruhui still didn't quite understand.

What the hell is this old thing going to say?

"Are you planning to refuse the conditions of the Turkic envoy and not be prepared to provide soldiers and horses with money and food to the Turks?"

Li Yuan continued to ask.
