Datang: Salted fish at the beginning, Gao Yang was given marriage by Li Er

Chapter 194 Provocation from a foreign race

The news of the rivalry between the foreign race and the literati of the Tang Dynasty seemed to blow up a hurricane and spread rapidly throughout the entire imperial city.

Tai Chi Temple.

Under the dome supported by large vermilion lacquer pillars, hundreds of officials stand in awe-inspiring manner.

All the officials who knew about the competition had different expressions, some were surprised, some sneered.

"Your Majesty, Tubo, the rest of the Eastern Turks, and Gaochang dispatched envoys to the Tang Dynasty recently, and they have already stayed in Xiahonglu Temple yesterday."

"However, among the envoys of the three parties, only the Turks submitted the documents."

The minister of Honglu Temple stepped out of the ranks of courtiers first, holding documents in his hands and handing them over.

The figure sitting on the dragon glanced over the document and nodded slightly.

Eunuch Rong, who was standing quietly by the side of the dragon seat, took the document and presented it with small steps.

Li Shimin glanced at the document briefly, his eyes stayed between the lines, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Okay!"

"East Turkic knows the truth and knows how to choose between advances and retreats. The homeless Ashina clan joined the Tang Dynasty, and the East Turkic matter can be regarded as a complete settlement."

Ashina Sheer is a powerful elite tribe in the Eastern Turks, and also a foreign general admired by Li Shimin.

This return can be regarded as the best result for Datang.

"Your Majesty, the Tubo family is arrogant and rude. They are disrespectful to me, the Tang Dynasty, if they do not come to pay homage to the imperial city."

"Furthermore, setting up an arena in the imperial city and meeting friends through literature is a blatant insult to us, the literati of the Tang Dynasty."

"My minister thought that these barbarian envoys should..."

Hey ~
A drawn-out sound came from Fang Xuanling's mouth, and he moved his feet and walked out.

"Young Master Honglu Temple, you are too cautious."

"In recent years, it has been rumored in Tubo that there is a genius who knows the sky, the latitude and the earth, who can know astronomy from the top and geography from the bottom."

"In addition, the unification of Tubo has not been long, so it is inevitable that there will be some arrogance."

Looking over, Fang Xuanling's eyebrows raised.

"It's hard to spread a strange person in the plateau area, so what's the problem if you want to use the Holy Land of the Great Tang Imperial City to spread the word?"

"For folk matters, those folk literati can solve them!"

After all, Fang Xuanling still has some confidence in the scholars of the Tang Dynasty.After all, the cultural heritage that has been bred for thousands of years cannot be mastered by others who secretly read a few books.

After hearing this, Changsun Wuji also smiled, flicked his sleeves, and walked out of the queue.

"Yes."

"Even if they start the trouble first, it's better to let them see what's really going on with our Datang."

"Our Tang Dynasty has always been a country of etiquette. These barbarians naturally don't know how to be the guest of honor. If we involve the court, it will appear that we are too stingy."

Gao Shilian stepped forward, glanced at everyone in the court, and said with a smile.

"It makes sense."

"If you want to make a fuss, let them make a fuss. As for the obedience, you still have to fight!"

There was a strange light in Li Shimin's eyes, he twirled his beard under his chin for a long time, and smiled.

Dance over the dragon sleeves, across the ministers.

"That's all, that's all."

"It's just a competition, let them go to the competition, and the Jinwu Guard will maintain the order between the court and China."

"This is the end of the matter, morning!"

……

on the long street.

On the half-person-high wooden platform, a tall flag was erected, with the inscription "Meeting friends through writing".

Stepping on the paved red carpet with bare feet, the seductive Orchid Yingying came to the stage and bowed. The crisp and melodious female voice came out from the veil, and the jerky Chinese echoed throughout the audience.

"My fellow citizens of the Tang Dynasty, we are the people of Tubo who occupy the southwestern plateau."

"I have heard for a long time that the Tang Dynasty was rich in materials and outstanding people. The Yangtze River and the Yellow River gave birth to many literati."

"It just so happens that our Tubo country also has outstanding talents. They admire the literature of the Tang Dynasty, studied for three years, and studied astronomy and geography. Therefore, this time I want to find like-minded people in the Tang Dynasty who can be compared with them. I hereby set up the stage. I also hope that you will enlighten me.”

The graceful words fell, and there was a sudden commotion in the entire venue.

"Tubo is a tribe of barbarians, dare to compare with my Tang literature? Why don't you overestimate your own strength and bring shame on yourself."

"After three years of rest, you dare to lie that you know astronomy and geography. Who gave you the courage? The Chinese civilization is profound and profound. How could you be able to recite it in three years?"

"Don't mention it's been three years, it's just those of us in this game, it's good if you can win, don't think that writing two couplets will make us know Tang Dynasty thoroughly, ignorant junior."

"Hey~ Don't talk about these useless things, don't mention it again after a literary competition, how about you doing a sexy dance?"

In the noisy and chaotic discussions, many people began to laugh and laugh, and the laughter gradually became one.

"Tell me!"

"What if you lose?"

Amidst the laughter from all around, Orchid standing on the platform spread her arms slightly, suppressing the noise of the crowd.Instead, he pointed to the southwest direction and whispered.

"Our country is located on a plateau, and we are the closest to the gods. The revered wolf god taught us this great wise man himself."

"He can also know the veins of the rivers between the sky and the earth with his eyes closed, and he can know the secrets of the stars, the sun, and the moon to tell people with a glance."

"We firmly believe that such a wise man is rare in the world, but if the people of Tang Dynasty lose, they will pass on the high position of the Literature Museum to this great wise man, and he will broadcast the knowledge of the gods and educate Tang Dynasty children of the

boom!
The crowd around the audience exploded.

"What kind of god, what kind of wise man? You are simply humiliating us Tang students."

"That is, barbarians who drink blood are also worthy to humiliate our nation? You won't lose, so you can decide that we will lose?"

"Damn it, if it weren't for the fact that you are a womanizer, I would have torn your mouth to pieces, little girl! Is the Great Tang Imperial City a place for you to indulge yourself?"

The voice of denunciation became more and more intense, mixed with the vulgar words of some reckless people.

Orchid on the high platform didn't know whether she couldn't understand these sentences, or couldn't hear these noisy words, she held her head high and looked fearless.

"Tomorrow, here we are, the warriors of Tubo will put down the ring, waiting for the challenge of the literati and inkmen of the Tang Dynasty."

"If my people in Tubo lose, I am willing to be punished with two carts of spices and pepper, and a thousand horses of cattle and sheep."

"But if Datang loses, it depends on the previous agreement."

After finishing speaking, he didn't care about the people discussing fiercely in the audience, stepped on lotus steps, got up and returned to the chariot.

Although they were resentful in their hearts, the people still retained some sense of reason, and hurriedly grabbed those people who wanted to rush forward.

"What the hell, in our exotic country of the Tang Dynasty, you are still so arrogant."

"Hehe! In recent years, the barbarians on the plateau have been unified, and I think their ambitions have grown accordingly! They want to overwhelm us by going on missions."

"Only them? Don't even look at how many catties I have, bah! Bad luck."

"Hurry up and stop waiting, ask our literati, who will fight tomorrow, we can't lose this face!"
