Crown Tang emperor

Hearing Wang Xiaojie mention this point, Wei Gonglu's face became a little unnatural, but he still nodded and said: "There can be no chaos if there is governance. Today, the two countries have continuous business, but most of them are in the grass and wild, and they come and go in disorder. The law disturbs the people and must be taken seriously.”

"Isn't there a need for this? my country's commercial goods are limited to Xikang. As for the comings and goings of Xikang, the matter is tied to the Xikang King's Mansion. If your country is in trouble, you can negotiate with the Xikang King's Mansion and submit it to the court for approval."

Wang Xiaojie said disapprovingly after hearing the words, and took a pen to tick off the topic.

Hearing what Wang Xiaojie said, Wei Gonglu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that Datang would pay attention to this issue, and passed on the letter of credence to discuss with Zanpu how to supervise it.

The Tang Dynasty was well-organized and well-organized, so business affairs were naturally controlled.But in Tibet, the situation is much more chaotic, it is a mess, and there is almost no effective supervision.

The reason for this is that, on the one hand, it is naturally because the construction of the system in Tubo is extremely lagging behind, and no relevant laws and regulations have been formed at all.On the other hand, the Tubo side participated in the business and trade with the Tang Dynasty, mainly those powerful clans. These people are all powerful, and they may not be willing to obey even if there is a law.

The Tubo mission raised this issue to negotiate with Datang, mainly because of Zanpu's intention.The business between the two countries is so prosperous, and the clans of the chieftains and chieftains have also benefited a lot from it. Zanpu naturally understands this, and he can't help but ask a question, you are all making a lot of money, what is the advantage of me? ?

Therefore, Tubo Zanpu raised this question in the hope of using Datang's orderly means to cooperate and collect Tubo's local business taxes and get a share of it.

This matter is not of great interest to Datang, but those powerful people in Tubo are very nervous.Their pastures, manors, people and livestock no longer have absolute autonomy under the authority of Zanpu. If Zanpu intervenes to take a share of the business routes they have finally opened up, no one will naturally hope to do so.

Although Wei Gonglu is the envoy of Tubo, he is still a direct member of the Wei family, and Wei is one of the largest traders between Tang and Tubo.

Zanpu hinted that this issue should be included in the letter of credence, so he naturally did not dare to disobey, but seeing that Wang Xiaojie was somewhat disapproving of this, he did not argue with reason.Anyway, he had already submitted the question, and Datang ignored it, so what could he do?

This problem is not the core task of this trip to the Tang Dynasty, so if you can fool it, you can fool it.Wei Gonglu really wanted to fight hard, which made Datang pay more attention to it, not to mention whether other powerful chieftains would intercept and kill him to vent his anger on the way home, even if he returned home safely, he would inevitably have to be trained by his family.

Chapter 0904: It's hard to be good

Datang and Tubo are both huge and powerful regimes, and there are naturally many problems arising from exchanges between them, and the political centers of the two countries are far apart. Pull out the big and small and talk about it.

Although it is said that things that cannot be obtained on the battlefield are difficult to obtain through the negotiating table.But right now the relationship between the two countries has not developed to the point where they must fight each other, especially because there is a Gar family in between. Even if one side has a strong desire for war, it is difficult to declare war directly.

The relationship between countries is originally based on self-restraint and intrigue. Unless the strategic situation is very clear, one side has a certain strategic goal and has to fight, otherwise most of the time They are talking about each other.

Tubo and Tang Dynasty also fought fiercely, several wars around Qinghai, and several changes of hands in the four towns of Anxi.But at that time, the Gar family was mainly in charge of military affairs in Tubo. As the Gar family was gradually excluded from the power center of Tubo, in fact, neither the Tang Dynasty nor Tubo had any idea about the strength of the other side. Intuitive understanding and clear grasp.

The current Gar family, in the confrontation between Tang and Tibet, is like a strategic black box, which hides rich military and political secrets of the two countries.No matter which party can take this part of the secret into its own hands, it can get a lot of benefits.

So although Wang Xiaojie and the Tubo envoys have been arguing with each other for a long time, as long as the topic does not involve the Gar family, what they are talking about is some side issues.On the issue of the Gar family, the Tubo envoys were obviously much more eager than Wang Xiaojie.

Because the Gar family itself is a separatist force in Tubo, Tubo hates it very much.But Datang was much calmer about this, at least not as eager as Tubo.

Wang Xiaojie had been told by the sage long ago that whenever he heard the Tubo envoys talk about the issues related to the Gar family, it was just about him, and he was really anxious to be questioned. The envoys sulked again, blowing their beards and staring.

After such a negotiation, although each of them spent a lot of time, there was almost no real effective communication.

At the end, the Tubo envoys were quite exhausted, but Wang Xiaojie was still in high spirits. When he parted, he smiled and said to the Tubo envoys: "Today's talk is really satisfying. Tomorrow, don't leave the museum at will. After I leave the court, I will be busy with the affairs of the office, and then I will call you to continue the discussion."

People's happiness is always based on other people's pain. Seeing the sad and depressed expressions of the Tubo envoys, Wang Xiaojie felt that he was not the most frustrated one in the world.Especially if this pain is inflicted on people by him, the happiness he feels will be doubled.

Wang Xiaojie was worried that he would be incompetent when the new official took office, and with such a wide range of duties, but after a busy day, he felt that the position of Hong Luqing was even more fulfilling than the Beijing Camp Commander he had previously held.

After all, the Imperial Guards of the Beijing Battalion stationed in Chang'an were rarely responsible for specific combat missions other than timing and drills, and even their daily daily activities were greatly restricted.Moreover, as a general of the Beijing camp, he must be cautious when interacting with people, and has various taboos.

Wang Xiaojie couldn't stand such a boring and stressful job, not to mention that there was Zhang Renyuan staring at him every day to find his mistakes, any slight negligence would be reprimanded by him.

Thinking about it this way, Wang Xiaojie is also very satisfied with this job adjustment.And this is not because Wang Xiaojie simply feels good about himself, the saint is also quite satisfied with Wang Xiaojie's performance today.

Li Tong didn't know the details of Wang Xiaojie's meeting with the Tubo envoys, but the report on the trial of the Hu Bin envoys in Beijing was put on his desk before noon.After reading it, Li Tong also expressed his deep approval, and immediately approved it, asking Honglu Temple to implement it as soon as possible.

What he admired was naturally not Wang Xiaojie's money-making skills, even if Wang Xiaojie treats guests, the money he can search is very limited.

As an open empire in the Tang Dynasty, there were quite a few Hu people living in Beijing. Although later generations talked about this situation, they would often associate these Hu people with commerce and treasures, thinking that these Hu people, regardless of their social and political status Not high, but all of them are very rich, otherwise, how could they have traveled thousands of miles to Tang and settled in Chang'an?

But this is really a misunderstanding. Although there are many Hu merchants from all over the country active in Chang'an, there are really very few Hu people who settled in Chang'an.The vast majority of Hu people living in Chang'an not only had low social status, but also had a worrying economic situation, and many of them were reduced to abject poverty.

After all, even if the citizens of the Tang Dynasty have no special skills, they still have guarantees such as homesteads and farmland, and they still have the help and support of their clan relatives and friends.But those Hu people did not have this kind of protection, even if they sold their labor for tenants and servants, they could only serve as the lowest-level miscellaneous servants.

Even if Wang Xiaojie's target is not ordinary Hu people, but a relatively powerful and status group among Hu people, but these people live in Chang'an all the year round, their tribes are alienated, they don't do production and they don't serve as officials in the court. After so many years, it is inevitable to sit and eat, but still miss the prosperity of Datang and refuse to leave.

This point is more similar to the fact that many people in a certain period of later generations yearned for life outside, and for this reason they were willing to give up the achievements and status they had already achieved in the country.

Li Tong didn't dislike these Hu people settling in Chang'an, but the premise was to make corresponding contributions.Either you have a good skill and good talent, or you have a lot of money and a high level of consumption, and you have neither talent nor wealth, and you can still sell your country.

For example, the Tubo people, as well as the Turkic people who fled from Mobei, can wantonly promote the decline and immorality of Tubo and Turkic people among the Hu people, so as to arouse the indignation of the people, which is also considered to have made their own a contribution.

But there is such a group of barbarians, they have neither the ability to be an official, nor the financial resources to stimulate consumption, and they don't even have the means and capital to betray the country.What's the use of keeping such a person besides increasing public security risks?

Among the Hu people who settled in Chang'an, having the status of a guest envoy can be said to be an excellent amulet. The national gift can also get a certain amount of gifts. Although the days are not enough, they are more than enough.

Not to mention that there are many such people, there should be thousands of households.After all, since the reign of Zhenguan, Datang has made great efforts to expand abroad, and there are almost thousands of Jimi prefectures established in several frontier provinces.

Theoretically speaking, these prefectural capitals have the qualifications and obligations to send envoys to the Tang Dynasty to offer tribute to the printed books.And in the past so many years, they have indeed done this, at least once every few years, and at most several times a year.And after those guests entered the Tang Dynasty, quite a few of them settled in Chang'an.

Datang certainly welcomes this. The so-called prison is full of flexibility. Rather than allowing these people to stay in the border areas to manage the people in their territories, it is better to simply stay in Chang'an and get rid of an idle mansion. Into Datang directly under the jurisdiction.From Zhenguan to Yonghui years, through such means, a considerable part of Jimi prefectures were completely merged into Datang and became the real territory of Datang.

But correspondingly, the part of the Hu chieftain envoys who settled in Chang'an became a burden for the successors.

It's not that Li Tong is reluctant to continue to give these people material support, but decades have passed and the situation has changed, and it doesn't make much sense to continue to support these people.Moreover, because of their existence, Datang's management of the Jimi prefectures in the border areas was quite chaotic. Many of the Jimi prefectures no longer existed, but there were still envoys in Chang'an in other registers.

In normal seasons, this will at most add some trouble to daily affairs, but it is not a big deal.But now, Datang is about to continue to launch foreign conquests, so it is necessary to sort out the border situation in detail.Once the army goes to the border, according to the usual practice, these Jimi prefectures also need to send people and goods to help them fight. Chang'an City has made good calculations, but when they arrive at the border, they find that there are still corresponding Jimi prefectures?Not to mention the character's loss!

Wang Xiaojie was aware of this problem just after he arrived at Honglu Temple, and started to sort it out. Li Tong was naturally very pleased with this.So in the evening, he deliberately stayed in the former court, and after Wang Xiaojie returned from the Sifang Pavilion, he was summoned to the palace again.

"When I made this appointment yesterday, there were many ministers who disagreed, thinking that Ning Guogong was a great talent. Even I was a little hesitant in my heart. This memorandum shows that people who know what to use, Ning Guogong is indeed a good minister who can take care of things!"

After Wang Xiaojie entered the palace, Li Tong held up the original manuscript handed in by Honglu Temple, not stingy with his own praise, and said to Wang Xiaojie with a smile.

When Wang Xiaojie heard the sage's praise, he immediately became excited, and kowtowed on the ground: "Since the Kaiyuan period, ministers have been promoted to high positions by following the old qualifications. I am honored and honored by my ministers. What I have done so far, and what I have achieved in one hole, is so appreciated by the sage. The great fortune of the ministers is to serve this enlightened master!"

Hearing Wang Xiaojie's words, Li Tong couldn't help being touched for a while, and couldn't help but wonder if he really treated this guy too well?Thinking about Wang Xiaojie's title again, he thought in his heart that if Zhang Ren wishes to make new achievements in the future, he might as well bestow Duke Juerong, so that the descendants of the two families will continue to love and kill each other.

Leaving this question aside, Li Tong looked at Wang Xiaojie again and said with a smile: "Today, Lord Ningguo went to the Sifang Hall to meet the envoy. How was the meeting?"

After Wang Xiaojie heard the words, he quickly told what happened in the Sifang Pavilion.It didn't take too long, in fact, after meeting for a day, there was no nutritious conversation, but the envoy was really very angry by Wang Xiaojie.

Li Tong couldn't help laughing after listening.He has never been a magnanimous person, and he was sent to dig a corner of his wife's house by the envoy. Although he failed, it is depressing to think about it.He himself couldn't bear to care about these subordinates, so he should use someone like Wang Xiaojie to add embarrassment to those who don't have a long look.

However, after listening to Wang Xiaojie's description, Li Tong didn't gain anything at all. He still realized that the envoy had an attitude of being unyielding in big matters and not sticking to small things.The debate on major issues of right and wrong is very strong, but on some small issues, such as business and trade, it is a bit perfunctory.

It is really a joke to say that the Tubo people look down on the benefits of doing business with the Tang Dynasty.Now in the city of Chang'an, the most active are these Tubo merchants.

In previous years, the two sides had turned against each other, and Tubo did not have a channel for personnel communication with Datang. However, with the establishment of the Xikang route, various objective conditions have been established, and the enthusiasm of the Tubo people was immediately aroused. There is a constant exchange of contacts, and there is a sense of wanting to snatch back the wasted time and missed benefits of the past.

Today's Datang is prosperous in business and trade, but to be honest, the current productivity is far from enough to satisfy the huge market that has been activated. There are a lot of merchants in Chang'an City who have huge sums of money but can't buy goods.

In terms of the general policy of business and trade, Li Tong did not deliberately neglect the Tubo merchants, but took care of them a little.Some clans that are not weak in the Tubo Kingdom have a shorter delivery cycle than other merchants.

Of course, it was not that Li Tong had a preference for the Tubo merchants, but it was to immerse them in the pleasure of huge commercial profits, thereby disintegrating and softening their hostility and rejection of Datang.

Judging from the attitude of these envoys, this strategy has already achieved certain results.Although these Tubo envoys still have some control over major issues, they have shown some signs of integrity when it comes to issues that do not involve the strategic principles of the two countries.

Although in the short term, pure business contacts are not enough to affect the position of the rich and powerful in Tubo, but human nature has an economic attribute. When they get used to this way of making profits, their words and deeds will gradually be affected. .

Many people who have stumbled into the sea always feel that after finishing this vote, they will wash their hands, go home and find an honest person, and live in peace, but often when these words are uttered, they are not far from death.

Even if these beneficiaries themselves can endure this temptation, but their own successors will not agree, your brains are full of fat, and I haven't grown fat yet!Cutting people's fortunes is like killing their parents, barefoot is not afraid of wearing shoes, you really want to see if my knives are sharp!

During the confrontation with Tubo, Datang has always been on the defensive. Even during the Kaiyuan Tianbao period when the country was the most powerful, it suppressed Tubo all the way and beat output, but the main place where the war took place was Qinghai, which is relatively marginal to Tubo.The unique plateau topography makes Tubo easy to defend and difficult to attack, so it can maintain a proactive strategy.

But there is no natural danger in this world. Even in the years when both sides were declining and fighting for their lives, Tubo still failed to survive the Tang Dynasty, and finally fell apart. A powerful unified regime for a while.

Although Li Tong regards Tubo as a great enemy, he never imagined that the Tang army would be able to drive straight into Luosuo City, and the dangerous terrain and climate of the plateau determine that the current large-scale military operations are taking the lives of soldiers. Just kidding.

But the disintegration of opponents has never been limited to the military. With the backing of a strong military force, once the internal affairs of Tubo no longer remain closed, but have frequent and close contacts with the outside world, then this is already a fragile regime. Domination and collapse are only a matter of time, and the day that comes will certainly not be too long.

Right now, these foreign powers, when negotiating with Datang, still maintain integrity and self-defense, which is the confidence brought to them by the victories and losses of the two sides in the past.

However, the complete break between the Gar family and Tubo will also mean that an era of Tubo has come to an end. Therefore, in the next strategy in Qinghai, if Datang can defeat Tubo's plot in one fell swoop, it will be of great help to the dignitaries in Tubo today. They are undoubtedly a devastating blow to confidence!

Chapter 0905 Saints have love, Fan people are lucky

While the Tubo envoys were still negotiating with Datang, the Gar family, which was the core of the conflict, was not idle, but made full use of the business opportunities provided by Datang, and seized the time to exchange urgently needed supplies.

Zan Po, who stayed in Chang'an, has been busy with this matter recently.After receiving his letter, Haixi did not stay idle, and immediately responded.Even in his elder brother Qin Ling's letter, he blamed Zam Po for being too conservative, since he had won such an opportunity, he should increase the volume of trade.

After receiving this letter from Qin Ling, Zan Po was a little dumbfounded for a while.His elder brother was brave and mighty on the battlefield, as if possessed by a god, but in other respects, he was relatively inferior.

Now without the backing of the entire Tubo, the Gar family was already in a weak position in the process of negotiating with Datang, and the initiative in many things was not on their side.Even if Datang allows trade with each other this time, whether it will be fulfilled in the end remains to be tested by the facts.If Datang intends to cheat and breach the contract, but they blindly and optimistically increase the volume of trade, it will be a fatal blow to Haixi.

What's more, the right to decide how to trade with each other is not in their hands. Even if the Gar family wants to increase, Datang may not agree.

But regardless of these trivial matters for the time being, as the first batch of agreed traders' goods were shipped from Chang'an City, and the final delivery would be completed in Shanzhou, Longyou, Zampo's always tense heartstrings were slightly relaxed.

Although the quantity of this batch of commercial goods is not enough to fully supplement Haixi's material shortage, at least it can relieve some urgent needs.With this successful experience, it will naturally be more efficient to negotiate similar behaviors in the future.

However, Zampo's relaxed mood did not last long. Soon the news of Tubo envoy Wei Gonglu's visit to the Queen of Xikang reached his ears, which immediately made Zampo nervous again.

They have been hostile to each other for a long time. Even if Po Zan was not there, it is natural to think that when the envoy from the middle school talked with Queen Xikang, they would never have any good words for their Gar family.

So on the second day when Ye Ali met Wei Gonglu, Zan Po went to Xikang King's residence again in the name of presenting congratulatory gifts.Of course, this is not just an excuse, Zan Po's visit this time has indeed brought a lot of valuable treasures.

The Gar family has been entrenched in Qinghai all year round and has been the most powerful family in Tubo for a long time. Naturally, they are not poor. Before that, they were only excluded from the business network of Datang for a long time, and their money could not be realized on a large scale.

The reason why he was able to do business with Datang this time was because of the border affairs situation of the own Datang, but Ye Ali's go-betweens and referrals also helped a lot.Otherwise, it would be very difficult for Zanpo to meet the Tang sage so easily and finalize this important event that is extremely important to her family's future. I am afraid that she is still trapped in Beijing and has no way to enter.

So this time, Zan Po is also very generous. A batch of treasures that have just arrived in Chang'an, Zan Po originally planned to keep some of them to deal with other personnel relations, but he did not expect the speed of the envoy's return from the middle school to be so fast. So fast, so it also shows the urgency of Zhongzhong Zanpu for the next move.

In view of this situation, Zan Po does not intend to continue to develop other personnel relationships in Chang'an City. The most important point right now is to grasp the line of Queen Ye Ali of Xikang.As long as Ye Ali's attitude doesn't change, other things can be continued later.

So the wealth of more than a dozen carts was personally escorted by Zan Po to the Xikang King's Mansion in Guanglufang, which did not violate his promise to prepare a generous dowry gift for the Queen of Xikang in front of the sages of the Tang Dynasty. .

Although there were quite a few congratulators who came to the mansion recently, there were very few people as generous as Zan Po, and the servants of the mansion dared not accept it at will, so they hurriedly reported to the mansion.

When Ye Ali heard the news and went out, the front hall of the mansion had been emptied by the government officials, and Po Zan was instructing her attendants to carry down the treasures and gifts one by one, and placed them in the front yard of the outer hall without any disguise on the clearing.

Ye Ali's Xikang Kingdom was originally the most important transit point for the Tang-Tibet trade, and he had almost no desire for money, but after seeing Zampo's behavior like this, he was still very surprised, and went forward to look at it. Looking at the other party, he said: "Chang'an and Haixi are far apart, but it is already touching to stay here, so why bother to waste the power of the characters!"

"A few vulgar things are not enough to express deep affection. This time in Beijing, Her Royal Highness has really helped her a lot, and she should be repaid."

After hearing the words, Zanpo said with a smile, and at the same time waved her hand to signal the followers to continue carrying.Normally, he is not the kind of person who is keen on showing off, but a few days ago, an envoy from the middle school came to visit, and he showed off like this to show off to those people in the middle school.

The conveyance and reception of the congratulatory gifts were busy with the staff. After Ye Ali watched for a while, he invited Zan Po back to the middle hall.After sitting down with each other, she made no attempt to hide it, looked at Zan Po and said with a smile: "This time when the general visited Chang'an, he really worried about too many people's thoughts..."

While exchanging greetings, she briefly recounted Wei Gonglu's words in the hall yesterday, but she didn't say much about her own response.

After listening to it, Zan Po was overwhelmed with thoughts in her heart, but her expression remained calm on the surface. After Ye Ali finished speaking, she sighed first, and then said: "This brat, Wei Shi, has a clever tongue and a deep wit." , it can be called living up to family education."

When he made this evaluation, he naturally pointed out that Webster's family style is cunning and cannot be trusted.Since Ye Ali was willing to tell him about the meeting, he naturally did not agree with Wei Gonglu's words from the bottom of his heart. If he was impatient to persuade him with strong words, it would destroy the mutual trust between them.

Hearing what Zan Po said, Ye Ali smiled slightly, and then said: "If the general does not object, I will include you in the list of guests and submit them to the court together?"

"It's my honor to be able to participate in such a ceremony, how can I object?"

Zan Po hurriedly replied with a smile, but under this smile, she let out a long sigh in her heart.One of the reasons why he stayed in Chang'an was to wait to attend Ye Ali's wedding. If there was no such thing as an envoy from the middle school, this matter would be nothing.

But the envoy returned so quickly, and had already sowed discord in front of Ye Ali, which showed that the middle school was full of malice towards itself and had not concealed it at all.This time, the envoys from the country will also attend the wedding. If the two parties meet on the same occasion, it is unknown what kind of conflict will break out.

With the previous record of envoys fighting to death in the early years, Datang will never allow foreign envoys to spoil their country's gifts with pride, but even if the contradictions are suppressed for a while, when these envoys return to the country, they will definitely be treated badly by the state. My family's evil thoughts are even deeper.

For a moment, Zan Po even had an idea in her heart, wanting to intercept and kill this group of envoys midway.Although doing so can't solve the problem once and for all, it can let the junior high school students know the situation and attitude of Datang, and thus give their family more precious opportunities.

Not to mention Zanpo's thoughts, when the concierge list of Xikang King's residence was reported, the Tubo envoys soon learned that the Gar's family was also on the list through other channels.Of course, this so-called other way is not a secret, Hongluqing Wang Xiaojie has long talks with them every day.

The Tubo envoys were naturally deeply dissatisfied with the Gal family's participation in the ceremony.After all, the Gal family is nominally still their officials of Tubo, and they don't want to see the Gal family contact with the Datang officials in any form.I have been trying to bring the topic to this aspect before, but I have been unable to go deeper.

So after knowing this, the Tubo envoys no longer held back. When talking with Wang Xiaojie, they resolutely stated that members of the Dao Ruogar family would also attend the ceremony, so the Tubo envoys refused. Attend.

The Tang court still paid more attention to the protest of the Tubo envoys.It's not that he particularly wants to invite them to a wedding banquet, but because Ye Ali still has the status of a member of the Tubo royal family after all, and this status still has some room for manipulation in the future.So after some weighing, the imperial court still ticked off Zan Po's name from the protocol list.

When Wang Xiaojie conveyed the imperial court's decision to the Tubo envoys, all the Tibetan envoys couldn't help but feel a sense of elation and elation. Since entering Beijing, the two sides have been engaged in boring wrangling. Unknowingly, with patience With the passing of time, the self-requirements of the Tubo envoys became extremely low, and they even regarded this as a great diplomatic victory.

Finally, the time came to mid-July, the day when Queen Xikang officially entered the palace.

The ceremony and celebrations prepared by the imperial court for this day are not too small, and they are not as simple as Yang Xier's entry into the palace not long ago. The imperial court specially canceled the day for this purpose, and the sage hosted a banquet for courtiers of the fifth rank and above as well as all the barbarians in the Linde Hall As a guest envoy, the scene is second only to the gift of conferring a queen.

Ye Ali entered the palace this time, and the canonization he received was not an ordinary concubine, but a concubine under the empress and among the four wives.The reason for this generous canonization is that compared with Yang Xi'er, Ye Ali's entry into the palace is undoubtedly of greater significance.

This is the first time since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the king has accepted and formally conferred a woman from Fanbang as a harem concubine.

The concept of people nowadays is still different from that of later generations. They don't think that giving a daughter a marriage is a shame, but it represents the majesty of the king of the Central Empire. Through marriage, the monarch of a foreign country is given a reproductive right.However, they are less enthusiastic about accepting foreign women as official wives.In many current concepts, women in foreign countries are just playthings, not worthy of being treated with courtesy, let alone serving the emperor.

Ye Ali is not an ordinary foreign girl, and this is not only reflected in her identity, but also because the dowry is really rich and amazing.For such a large piece of Xikang land, the volume of the book edition alone is already extremely astonishing, and at the strategic level, it directly dedicated the eastern gate of Tubo to Datang.

Tang people have their own respectful and arrogant side, but they are not pedantic, and have their own pragmatic side.Therefore, there is almost no objection to the saint's acceptance of such a foreign woman as his concubine, and most people are happy to see it succeed.

For the Fan Hus, this change in Datang is also what they are happy to see.Since he came to power today, he has never been very friendly to the surrounding Hu tribes. Not to mention all kinds of sanctions and attacks, there are only a few prominent Hu chieftains who died directly under his orders, similar to the Tuyuhun king earlier. And the most recent son of the leader of Huihe.

Therefore, when many Hu people talked about the current sages of the Tang Dynasty, they couldn't help being shocked and frightened, thinking that they were far inferior to the tolerance and broadness of their ancestors, and did not have the grandeur of Tian Khan.

Of course, the real situation is that Taizong, Gaozong, etc. recognized by the Hu people are really many Fanhu regimes that perished in their hands.However, today's sages, whom they think are mean and vicious, are limited by the constraints of national power. Until now, only one Khitan has really been maimed, and they are not considered the real Fanhu regime.

But in any case, today's sage is willing to accept a foreign woman as his concubine, which also makes those Hu people realize that today's sage does not just blindly hate and reject Hu people, but also has a broad and loving side.

Although this kind of love is destined to have nothing to do with most Hu people, those Fanhu tribes who have suffered in their hands should also review whether they have done something wrong, and why others can be so good with saints Go to the same bed, but you can't even live?

In this world, at any time, there is always an unreasonable tolerance for the strong. Although those strong people don't care, the good people are always willing to make up their minds. These strong people are not really bad, but their own. Its last resort.They have endured hardships that ordinary people cannot bear, and generally a little bit of light can cover up other shortcomings.
