Chapter 186 Asking to marry Gao Yang

Just as Yang Fan and Lu Dongzan were having a hot chat, the hall gradually became quiet.

It turned out that at some point His Majesty Li Er had returned to the dragon throne, and it was obvious that the intermission time had ended.

Asan Siyun looked at Yang Fan and Lu Dongzan's communication of "deep affection" and couldn't help but pull the corners of her eyes.

Damn, these two are too hypocritical.

The officials of the Honglu Temple next to him couldn't help but secretly complain that this mallet that everyone praised in Chang'an City was so good at ripping.

Who said that this minister can only do things, and speaks to others and speaks to ghosts. It is obvious that the way of officialdom is terrible!

Seeing that the grand court meeting continued immediately, he had to whisper to Yang Fan and reminded him: "Mr., Your Majesty is back..."

Upon hearing this, Yang Fan looked up and saw His Majesty Li Er sitting on the imperial throne, turned to Lu Dongzan and said, "I really regret meeting Da Lu for a long time. I wish I could have a long talk all night. Unfortunately, today's time is wrong, and I am very sorry. Next time Da Lu has free time, I can go to a mansion to drink, so we won't go back until we get drunk."

"Don't Dongzan refuses to invite him, so he will definitely come to disturb him in the future." Lu Dongzan stared at the strong figure in front of him wearing a scorching robe, and secretly wiped the sweat from his forehead.

He claims to be unparalleled in eloquence, and few people in the world can compare with him.

Today I finally saw what it means to have people outside the heavens!

This Minister of Rites is simply a familiar person, and his shoulders are still painful now.

The most important thing is that this guy doesn't play by the rules, he has a very thick-skinned face, and does not have the kind of polite gentlemanly style of Confucianism.

Not only do he speaks wildly, but his words and deeds are also filled with a hint of ruffianism, and he doesn't look like an official's behavior at all.

If it weren't for the grand ceremony to be held soon, I still don't know when this guy would hold him to chat with him. It would be too difficult to deal with!

While complaining secretly, he was glad in his heart. After all, making friends with senior officials of the Tang Dynasty was also one of the purposes of Lu Dongzan's mission to the Tang Dynasty.

In Lu Dongzan's opinion, this young minister of the Ministry of Rites is quite friendly to him, and he has to walk more after the grand ceremony.

As the eunuch announced the continued meeting of the dynasty, the Minister of the Honglu Temple took out a memorial from his sleeve and said loudly: "The emperor is wise and wise, the sky is covered with earth, and the power is overwhelming. The Tang Dynasty has abundant resources and can live and work in peace and contentment. Now the four barbarians are coming to the court, and they are kind and kind..."

The tone is ups and downs, and it sounds very nice. If you go to the Bodhisattva, you will obviously still have some food to eat.

However, with Yang Fan's ancient writing skills, he only understood one or two.

However, it seems that the whole article mainly flatters His Majesty Li Er's civil and military skills, and then states that Li Shimin is a wise and magical emperor.

As soon as the Minister of the Honglu Temple finished reading the memorial, His Majesty Li Er pretended to speak on the imperial throne: "Today's grand ceremony is the day of great joy for the court. The envoys of various countries traveled thousands of miles to come to Chang'an. I feel very comforted. Today, the whole world celebrates together. If nothing else, please go to Chengtian Gate with me to watch the ceremony."

"Abide by your Majesty's order!"

"Thank you, God!"

...

The vast majority of envoys expressed their gratitude.

However, there are exceptions.

I saw Lu Dongzan holding a letter of nationality in both hands and saying, "Your Majesty the Tang Dynasty, the Tubo envoy Lu Dongzan has a letter of nationality..."

Zanpu often has this word in the names of the Tubo kings to show Chongwei, and at this time it represents Songtsen Gampo, the Tubo king.

"The Biography of Tubo in the New Book of Tang Dynasty" says: "It is commonly called "Zan" and "Husband" and "Pu" by the husband, so it is called "Zan Pu." It is quite meaningful.

The word "Zanpu" mainly takes its religious meaning, emphasizing that his power comes from heaven, that is, the so-called "monarch's power is granted divinely", emphasizing that Zanpu's blood ties belong to the divine system, and that the king's power comes from heaven.

According to the arrangements of the Grand Court, after the envoys from various countries offered gifts and received a meeting, they would go to Chengtianmen to watch the performance together.

At this time, the Tubo envoy submitted a letter of state, which was obviously a bit out of place, because today is not the time to deal with state affairs at all.

Instead of opening the letter of nationality, Li Shimin frowned and asked, "What is the story of the letter of nationality?"

Lu Dongzan bowed and replied, "His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Tubo Zanpu Songzanganbu asked his subordinates to bring their sincerest greetings. At the same time, the Tang Dynasty has a wealth of treasures and outstanding people and land, and is a prosperous place with a long and profound history and culture. Zanpu has long admired the culture of the Central Plains and hopes to marry the princess of the Tang Dynasty as the princess of Tubo and to benefit the people under the rule of Tubo."

"I heard that Princess Gaoyang of the Tang Dynasty was smart, knowledgeable and well-educated, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Moreover, Zanpu was very impressed by the upcoming Ji Hailang, so he specially sent envoys to propose marriage, hoping that His Majesty of the Tang Dynasty would be approved."

Hearing Lu Dongzan's words, Yang Fan was stunned.

What's going on?

Isn’t the original history that Princess Wencheng has entered Tibet? Why is it that now I ask for a name to marry Princess Gaoyang?

Although Li Shimin has not issued an order yet, no one in the court's civil and military affairs knows that His Majesty Li Er has kicked Gao Yang to him.

Nowadays, these people not only demanded to marry the princess of the Tang Dynasty, but also pointed out that they wanted to marry Princess Gaoyang. Isn’t this a silly person?

He obviously wanted to put a hat on himself, but his slight affection for Lu Dongzan just now disappeared without a trace.

Yang Fan frowned slightly, and he always felt something was wrong.

Songtsen Gampo sent Lu Dongzan to propose marriage, which happened historically.

Originally, Lu Dongzan asked for marriage, as long as he was a princess of the Tang Dynasty.

Even if you just select a woman from the clan and reward her with a princess.

Because Tubo only seeks a title.

But now Lu Dongzan has a very clear request to marry Princess Gaoyang. How did he know about Princess Gaoyang?

Why did you have to marry Princess Gaoyang? It was because Li Shimin had already made it clear that Princess Gaoyang was married to him.

Yang Fan rarely speculates others with the greatest malice, but he thinks there must be something wrong with it.

Someone must have secretly communicated with Lu Dongzan and wanted to use the Tubo hand to deal with him.

Who would do this and why?

After thinking about it, Yang Fan did not have a clear goal.

After all, there are many people who don’t deal with him.

If you can't figure it out, you won't think about it anymore. Anyway, the generals come to block the water and the earth.

Yang Fan was extremely unhappy, but he knew it wasn't his turn to talk, so he saw how Li Shimin did it first.

His Majesty Li Er's face suddenly became gloomy and said in a deep voice: "I don't know what the envoy has. Princess Gaoyang has already betrothed to Marquis Zhongyi. A daughter cannot be married. Don't you know this truth?"

It is a fantasy to want to marry his beloved daughter in a place like Tubo where birds do not shit.

Did these guys still not wake up in their dreams?

Besides, since hearing Yang Fan’s rebuttal that day, Li Shimin has long had the idea of ​​giving up marriage.

When Lu Dongzan heard Li Shimin's words, he was shocked and knew that he had been used as a gun.

He looked at Yang Fan apologetically, and just now he looked smiling, "Friend" also had an upset face at this moment.

With a bitter smile, Lu Dongzan looked at the fat man standing in the front row with some gritted teeth, and a cold light flashed in his eyes from time to time.

After thinking a lot, he could only say with a slight head and said, "I will not investigate. Please forgive me. However, there is a saying in the Central Plains that is good. If a family has a daughter and a hundred schools of thought, wouldn't it better to show Princess Gaoyang's nobility? Since Princess Gaoyang has not yet married and Your Majesty has not issued an order, then the Tubo Zanpu still has a chance to compete fairly."

Seeing that Lu Dongzan was still making a fuss, Li Shimin said unhappily: "Believe means trust. I have a word and can't change it at will. This matter has become a foregone conclusion, so there is no need to say too much."
