Chapter 399 I, Li Xian, Disagree

"Bless..."

When Empress Changsun said these words, she had a look of desolation on her face, she sighed lightly, and her vermilion lips parted slightly.

"Although the affiliated countries are like brothers and sisters of the Tang Dynasty, the current Tuyuhun has become a heart disease of the Tang Dynasty."

It seemed that the words were only half spoken, and the hesitant expression fell into the eyes of Li Xian, who was slightly surprised.

It was almost night, and Empress Changsun suddenly visited the mansion. This kind of incident really made Li Xian a little suspicious, not knowing what kind of thing caused such a big commotion.

Li Jing and Hong Funu sat in front of the Empress Changsun tremblingly, and they didn't dare to ask more questions. They all watched the empress Changsun who was depressed and recounted the old things between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty, and then mentioned the battle of Tuyuhun intentionally or unintentionally. , and the current situation.

When he saw a cup of tea, Li Xian didn't hear the ins and outs from it, so he simply interrupted the conversation.

"Empress, where does the term heart disease come from?"

"Although Tuyuhun is an affiliated country of the Tang Dynasty, now that it has just been built, and there are Princesses of the Tang Dynasty coming to Tuyuhun, it seems that our Tang Dynasty treats them well. Could it be that they can still rebel at this juncture?"

Hey~
Meimou sized up Li Xian, raised her arm, and motioned for Li Xian, who was opposite him, to sit by her side.

Su took Li Xian's arm with her hand, and patted the back of Li Xian's hand with her slightly cold fingers, and her beautiful eyes watched Li Xian's facial features carefully.

"Li Xian, speaking of it, your child is highly valued by His Majesty and this Palace. He is clever and clever, and has no rivalry with the world. He and Zhi'er can be called a pair of talent and beauty."

Hey~
Another quiet sigh came out, Empress Changsun avoided it with some shame, and looked at Li Jing and his wife.

"Fortune makes people."

"The envoy Feng Dexia returned the gift with Tubo in accordance with the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty, and everything went well, but this short-sighted envoy was greedy for two cups of highland barley wine at the royal court of Tubo. During the period, it was mentioned in advance that both East Turkic and Tuyuhun were rewarded by the Tang Dynasty After passing the Princess of the Tang Dynasty, as a matter of good relations between the two countries, there will be a matter of Tubo envoys coming to the Tang Dynasty to ask for marriage."

"Right now, Tubo Prime Minister Lu Anzan is visiting the Tang Dynasty, using the capture of Tuyuhun as an excuse to marry the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty..."

At this point in the words, Empress Changsun revealed her true feelings, she couldn't help but shed tears from the corners of her eyes, and her voice choked up.

Princess?
Li Xian pulled out his palm like an electric shock, and he froze on the spot, his mind went blank.

Officer Sun Zan, this grandson is actually thinking about the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty?
Is this the rhythm of knowing that you want to grab a wife from yourself?
The scalp was numb, and there seemed to be something in the heart that gathered the heart fiercely and then fell to the ground fiercely.

Li Jing and Hong Fu Nu on the opposite side were also frightened, and their faces turned pale in an instant.

In the quiet hall, it seemed that a snowstorm also fell at the end of this warm April, making the whole house turn cold.

half an hour.

Li Jing gritted his teeth, the muscles in his cheeks swelled, and then suppressed the anger in his heart, and his lips were lightly pursed under his beard like silver needles.

"It's only my fault that I took it lightly. Although I noticed that the Tuyuhun army was withdrawing slowly, I didn't think much about it."

"Weichen is willing to go to the western frontier again to recover the lost land, and intercept the Tubo army by the way, once again to shock the western frontier and dampen the morale of Tubo."

In the words, Li Jing punched his thigh with a fist, and suddenly stood up and begged for orders.

Princess Changle has a high status, even Li Jing is not far away from this incident, not to mention that Tubo has touched the majesty of the Tang royal family, and as a courtier, he must do his part.

Pressing the fingers on his knees and curling them up, Li Xian scolded the envoy a thousand times in his heart, and also got up to accept the order.

"Thirty thousand soldiers, my father and I will go together, and we will definitely let these Tubo barbarians go back to the plateau."

"I, Li Xian, would like to use my head as a guarantee, and I also hope that the empress will give me permission to start the journey tomorrow and interrupt their dog legs."

Li Xian was simmering with anger, not only for Tubo's brutal capture of Tuyuhun, but also for snatching the eldest princess.

Who the hell, whose head was caught by a door, would come up with such a trick?
Is he a beggar who should act like a beggar and vent his anger with a newly established affiliated country?For whom?
"well."

Empress Changsun stretched out her hand to support the father and son, mist rose in her beautiful eyes.

The plain hand brushed away the teardrops that could not stop falling, and the words trembled a little.

"I know that you father and son are loyal, and I also know that Li Xian is a man of blood, courage, righteousness and iron bones."

"Now that the Great Tang War has just come to an end, the Battle of the West Frontier is not only arduous, but also emptied the entire Datang treasury. To start the journey again, food, grass and soldiers are needed as a prerequisite, and these innocent people also need to survive... ..."

Li Xian's eyes were red, and he clenched his fists tightly. He seemed to have vaguely guessed the ending that Empress Changsun was going to say. He raised his eyebrows and asked slowly in a low and hoarse voice.

"Your Majesty...how did he say..."

Stopping the chatter, the formerly strong Empress Changsun lost her composure, like a mother who lost her child in the neighborhood, sniffing her nose, and took Li Xian's hand again, a little choked up.

"Li Xian, don't blame Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty, he cares about all the people and cares for the people of the world. There are many things that he can't help himself."

"This is what I mean. The Tang Dynasty cannot allow Tubo to take advantage of the situation and waste the prestige gained by attacking Tuyuhun just now. It is also absolutely not allowed to keep Tuyuhun, just abandon it. .Let’s not allow the southwestern border to become the second homeless place full of refugees.”

Slowly taking a breath, Empress Changsun seemed to feel her own gaffe, she suppressed the anger and resentment in her heart, and calmed down her tone.

"Li Xian, after all, the royal family owes you a beautiful wedding..."

I will suffer at the cost of saving face!
This is what Li Xian thought when he first heard Empress Changsun's heartfelt words.

Why did such things happen to me?

The defeated country is a lamb at the mercy of others, but it wants to bear the name of a big eastern country and support Tuyuhun, a dragging bottle, with one hand!

In the name of a vain and powerful country, do you want to take your own happiness as a dowry?

He clenched his fists tightly, his nails were deeply embedded in his trembling body, and he didn't seem to feel any pain. Li Xian's scarlet eyes were full of anger, and he shouted loudly in his heart.

A hoarse and low voice resounded throughout the quiet house.

"Your Majesty agrees, but it doesn't mean that I, Li Xian, agree."

The sky seemed to dim at this moment. Li Xian slowly raised his head to meet the misty eyes of Empress Changsun, and whispered firm words with his lips.

"Why me? There are thousands of people in the Tang Dynasty, and there are thousands of happy families. Why should I sacrifice?"

"I once promised to give Princess Changle a comfortable and warm home, with flowers blooming and falling in front of the door, and plowing the fields. As a man of the Tang Dynasty, I can't break my promise."

Solemnly bowing to Empress Changsun, Li Xian turned around and walked outside the village house.

"I was originally an idle person, and I didn't have the ambition to care about the world like an emperor."

"Sorry, I don't agree."
