Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

In Chang'an, Li Ke is holding Li Yan in his arms and reading a book together. Since the last time he had a barbecue with Changle and the others, Li Ke has indeed relaxed a lot, mainly because he can't feel too many changes in the people around him. .

Li Ke's mood gradually relaxed naturally.

In addition, Li Yan and the others have been by Li Ke's side these past few days, and he is not as anxious as before. The matter has come to this, whether he likes it or not, what can he do now that Li Shimin and Li Chengqian can't be found?

"Your Majesty, there is an urgent telegram from Tianzhu." Xu Song, who was in the distance, quickly came over with a telegram.

"Oh?" Li Ke was a little surprised, but he still sat up straight. The two of them were sitting in the garden at the moment. It was already evening, and I didn't expect a telegram to arrive.

Reaching out to take the telegram from Xu Song's hand, Li Ke read it curiously.

When he finished reading it, his face was somewhat surprised. This...Xuan Zang actually concluded the negotiation?Songtsen Gampo is willing to surrender?Oh no, it should be said that Songtsen Gampo is willing to submit to the Tang Dynasty?

Li Ke really didn't think about this point. Songtsan Gampo must have some ambitions. Of course, Li Ke doesn't know whether his current strength can support other ambitions.

However, Li Ke was a little surprised that he was willing to give up the rights in his hands.

Some conditions of Songtsan Gampo were mentioned in the telegram, but in fact there were no conditions, that is, he was required to be made the Duke of the state, and the rest could just follow Zhenzhu Khan and others.

This condition is not too much, and Chen Xuanzang has already told Li Ke about the other party's request to marry the princess, including the refusal.

However, the other party said that Li Ke would allow him to pursue the princess.

Of course, Li Ke doesn't care. As long as you have the ability to catch up, of course Li Ke agrees, but the only princesses who are about the same age as Songtsen Gampo are Yuzhang and the others.

He probably doesn't like Songtsen Gampo. Of course, if it's a princess of his father's generation, there are a few of the right age, but whether he can like her or not depends on him.

Li Ke won't stop it, but don't even think about decreing a marriage.

However, in the telegram, Chen Xuanzang also said one more thing, that is, Songtsan Gampo wanted a manor, and he hoped that Li Ke would help design and build it. For this reason, he said that he would lead the current army of Tubo to attack Jieri Dynasty to take Get more land.

This highlights something outrageous, and I feel that the style of painting has changed a bit quickly.

Could it be that he was afraid that he would not be able to marry the princess if he didn't have a house in Chang'an City?It's also possible.If Songtsan Gampo was attached to Datang, Li Ke would have given him a lot of money, but if he bought a yard in Chang'an City, it would not cost that much.

But ordinary courtyards naturally couldn't show his identity, but how did he know the situation in Chang'an City?Is it possible that you have learned about it in a special way?

In other words, he might have thought of surrendering to Datang before?

"Today is good news. I guess you are going to be busy again." Li Ke smiled, and directly handed the telegram in his hand to Li Yan.

Li Yan did not refuse, but took it out of curiosity, and when she saw the content clearly, she couldn't help smiling and said: "This is a smart man, although I don't know how Chen Envoy persuaded him Yes, but to be able to decisively choose to give up in the past few days is obviously self-aware."

"There are not many people who can have such a vision, but in terms of the region where he is now, to be honest, for Datang, our valuation of him may have to be lowered."

"Didn't you see that he would take the initiative to lead the army to attack more territory?" Li Ke pointed to the telegram and said.

"Doesn't he just want to sell more money? In fact, isn't the army under his command still belonged to Datang? After we win, Datang can even take more land from the Jieri Dynasty at a lower price." .” Li Yan shook her head and said.

"Hey, people really live just for three meals a day." Li Ke sighed with emotion, "Even Songtsen Gampo is no exception."

Li Yan: "..."

She looked at her third brother speechlessly, and then couldn't help but said: "Third brother, I just want to know, are you serious this day?"

After Xu Song sent the things down, he walked away wisely, and there was no one else around the two of them at the moment, Li Ke said with a smile, "You still know me, third brother."

Li Yan couldn't laugh or cry, I was a very pure woman, but it turned out that the third brother, you, Yang Anning and the others got me wrong, and I couldn't read these normal daily expressions.

"Am I wrong? This guy made it clear that he wanted to marry the princess. He felt that he might not be qualified and just wanted more. I was right." Li Ke shook his head.

"Forget it, what you said makes sense anyway, Third Brother, but Third Brother, are you ready to agree?" Li Yan shrugged and then asked.

"What do you think?" Li Ke thought for a while.

"It's okay to agree or disagree. The current Tianzhu mainland has almost no threat to Datang. Whether Songtsan Gampo is attacking or not, it is not of much use to us. On the contrary, I think we can first destroy the entire land. The southern plateau of Tianzhu has been completely taken."

"The population of these places is not large. Although there are several rivers, the land is not as fertile as the land in the northern plains, and the population is sparse, with only about 500 million people."

"There are some small countries on it, and it is not a big problem to win it with our current strength."

"After taking this side, the entire Tianzhu can be gradually eaten away. These countries on the Tianzhu continent are not strong enough to fight. I think they can be gradually eaten away. On the contrary, the three countries of Persia, Arabia and Byzantium need to be deployed in advance. .” Li Yan did not hide her thoughts, but said very simply.

Li Ke thought for a moment, and it turned out that the combat effectiveness of those people above Tianzhu was almost negligible.To be honest, Genghis Khan, who was capable of reaching the Mediterranean in history, failed to capture this place in the end only because of special reasons such as climate.

In fact, after the Mongols who took over Persia and other regions later, after decades of adaptation, after the collapse of the Timurid Empire, the remaining forces invaded Tianzhu, and finally almost unified the entire Tianzhu Peninsula. Crouching Empire.

It can also be seen from this point that the combat power here is really weak.

Anyway, no matter where they come from, as long as it is an external force, they can easily kill them and unify this land.
