The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

The atmosphere in Ganquan Hall is a bit dull.

The smile on the emperor's face also faded at this moment.

Goguryeo sent envoys to negotiate peace, and the emperor was happy.

At least to a certain extent, the Tang Dynasty won this war.

Otherwise, there would be no need for Yeon Gaeso Moon to send anyone to negotiate peace.

Moreover, Yeon Gaesumun sent people to negotiate peace, and the conditions he offered were also extremely impressive.

The emperor had not forgotten how terrible the previous battle with Goguryeo was for the Tang Dynasty.

If it hadn't been the last battle, Yeon Gaesumun's army would have completely lost its confidence.

It is impossible for them to sit here so peacefully today.

However, there are no absolute enemies in this world.

As long as there are interests, the emperor felt that they could make some concessions on some things.

Boy Zhao, I understand what you said, but there are many things that I can give in to.

The envoy sent by Goguryeo this time said that he is willing to cede his sand city in Goguryeo to the Tang Dynasty.

Shacheng is the gateway to Goguryeo. Although the population is not large, the rugged terrain serves as a natural barrier.

If we can get Shacheng, Goguryeo will completely depend on me, the Tang Dynasty.

And we can take care of them at any time.

Furthermore, the envoy said that Yuan Gaisuwen was willing to send Huizhen to the Tang Dynasty in order to repay Qin Qiong's life.

Boy Zhao, do you think these conditions are not enough? The emperor looked at Zhao Chen and said slowly.

What the emperor cared about the most was the Shacheng.

As the gateway for exchanges between Goguryeo and the Tang Dynasty, Shacheng's geographical location is extremely important.

Just like Cangzhou City in the Tang Dynasty.

As long as we take Shacheng and go to Goguryeo, it will be a long journey.

Of course the emperor knew that this was Yeon Gaesumun's expedient measure, but as long as they got Shacheng, the initiative would be in their hands.

By then, whether Goguryeo will be round or flat will not always be arbitrary.

They knead?

Fang Xuanling looked at Zhao Chen, he knew Zhao Chen well.

Zhao Chen was unwilling to agree to such conditions.

But after all, the arms can't hold the thighs.

In today's Tang Dynasty, the emperor still has the final say.

Even if Zhao Chen objects, it actually doesn't have much effect.

Sure enough, then Fang Xuanling heard Zhao Chen say: Since Your Majesty has already made a decision, why do you want me to come here?

Your Majesty can handle the affairs of Goguryeo by yourself.

I'm leaving.

After that, Zhao Chen left the Ganquan Hall.

The emperor's face turned ugly at that time.

Zhao Chen left without any hesitation, it was just a slap in Li Shimin's face.

The emperor thought that he trusted Zhao Chen, so he discussed the matter with him.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Chen actually shamed himself.

Humph! The emperor slapped his hand on the table.

Fang Xuanling was startled.

Wei Zheng on the side murmured twice, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end nothing came out.

…

Etiquette reception desk.

Here are the envoys from various countries who came to visit Datang.

Tie Qingwen, the envoy of Goguryeo, lives here now.

Looking at the smiling officials from the Ministry of Rites in front of him, Tie Qingwen also showed joy on his face.

From the smiles of the officials of the Ministry of Rites, he already understood that the emperor of the Tang Dynasty would probably agree to his peace request.

As Goguryeo's envoy, Tie Qingwen had already received orders from Yeon Gaesumun when he set out.

No matter what, we must find a way to talk to Datang

Negotiate peace.

As long as he delays enough time, he waits for Yeon Gaesumun to finish handling the affairs of Goguryeo.

It's just a sand city. Isn't it a place they can easily take back when the time comes?

Iron Messenger, it's like this. Your Majesty has discussed it with several ministers and feels that your country's request for peace is still negotiable.

Tomorrow, please invite the Iron Envoy to the Taiji Hall for the meeting. Then we will confirm it with all the civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty.

Congratulations, Iron Messenger. Officials from the Ministry of Rites and Tie Qingwen said with a smile.

Although he did not directly say that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty agreed to negotiate peace, Tie Qingwen knew in his heart that the matter was basically done. .??.

But Tie Qingwen was also a little strange.

When he came, Yeon Gaesumun repeatedly told him that Zhao Chen of the Tang Dynasty would definitely stop the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty from negotiating peace with Goguryeo.

He also told himself that he would find a way to spare Zhao Chen when the time comes.

Tie Qingwen also felt surprised at this moment.

He knew that Zhao Chen was now the King of Han in the Tang Dynasty.

Why is it that His Highness, the King of Han Dynasty of the Tang Dynasty, has been silent about this peace negotiation?

Master Han, foreign minister, I would like to ask, has His Royal Highness the King of Han of your country not expressed any opinions on the peace negotiations? Tie Qingwen cupped his hands and asked the officials of the Ministry of Rites in front of him.

His Royal Highness the King of Han? The official of the Ministry of Rites was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled: I heard that His Highness the King of Han is opposed to the peace negotiation between the two countries.

But this matter concerns the people of the two countries after all. It is useless for His Highness the King of Han to object.

Your Majesty, considering the overall situation, naturally has accepted the suggestion of His Highness the King of Han.

After all, in the final analysis, His Highness the King of Han has the final say in the Tang Dynasty.

Tie Qingwen could tell from the words of the officials of the Ministry of Rites in front of him that the Tang Dynasty court was not as peaceful as imagined.

At least there are still many officials who are dissatisfied with Zhao Chen. \u003c

br\u003e

Tie Qingwen felt that this was an opportunity for him and said with a smile: I hit it off with Mr. Han at first sight. I will hold a banquet at Juxiang Tower tonight and invite Mr. Han to come.

Juxianglou is a famous brothel in Chang'an, and dignitaries are willing to go there for entertainment.

But the consumption is a bit high and cannot be endured by an ordinary official of the Ministry of Rites.

Upon hearing that Tie Qingwen invited him to Juxiang Tower, the officials of the Ministry of Rites immediately beamed.

Then thank you Iron Envoy. It just so happens that there is something going on in Chang'an. Iron Envoy is here for the first time, so I have to explain it to Iron Envoy. The official from the Ministry of Rites said with a smile.

…

Zhao Chen did not go back to his home, but went directly to Chang'an Military Academy.

Although the emperor had his own considerations, Zhao Chen clearly felt that Yuan Gaisuwen's move must be a delaying strategy.

Where is Shacheng?

The nearest city to the Tang border is four hundred miles away.

The other city away from Goguryeo was less than a hundred miles away.

This means that if Yeon Gaesumun regrets it, he can go straight to Shacheng in just one day.

Shacheng is just a small city, blocking only the direction of Datang.

If they were to attack from the rear, Zhao Chen didn't realize the so-called danger of Shacheng, and could stop Yeon Gaesumun's hundreds of thousands of troops.

The cession of Shacheng was just a method used by Yuan Gaisuwen to deceive the Tang Dynasty.

However, Lao Litou couldn't listen to this at the moment.

Lao Li Tou just wants to hold the visible benefits in his hands now, and the rest is no longer important.

In other words, Old Li Tou is now eager to prove it to the people of the world.

In the war between Datang and Goguryeo, Datang won a great victory.

Otherwise, why would Goguryeo cede such dangerous cities as Shacheng?

This is why Zhao Chen knew why he couldn't persuade Lao Li Tou.
