In October, Li Shen's The Legend of White Snake became popular in the Tang Dynasty. The storytelling industry developed by Li Shen spread to all restaurants in the Tang Dynasty. Many eloquent readers join the storytelling industry to make a living. Li Shen's name is also well-known among the people. It is worth mentioning that because of the Legend of White Snake, Fa Hai was portrayed as a villain. This made the people prejudiced against temples, and ignorant people in many places went to the temples to ask them to hand over Fahai and let Bai Suzhen go. The great influence was on the temples near Chang'an, where many believers began to doubt their faith because of the Legend of the White Snake. People all over the world are saying that the monk is unkind.

This made Li Shimin in the palace laugh three times after hearing the news. I even drank a few more drinks while eating. Li Shimin realized that Li Shen had written the book to vent his anger, and he was immediately relieved. Li Shen himself did not expect such an effect. The printing house has printed 30 copies. But there are still many merchants placing orders. One book actually made Li Shen a profit of [-] yuan after deducting the cost. This made Li Shen even consider whether to write another long article and divide it into volumes to sell.

The biggest event at the end of the 14th year of Zhenguan was that the Tibetan envoy Gar Dongzan (Lu Dongzan) brought 5000 taels of gold, jewelry, etc. and led a proposal mission to propose marriage. When many envoys in Chang'an saw Tubo's behavior, they expressed their admiration for the Princess of Tang Dynasty and wanted to ask Datang to marry her.

Li Shen was very concerned after hearing about this. History says that Princess Wencheng's marriage to Tubo promoted harmonious relations between the two countries. But Li Shen believed that it was from the perspective of unity for later generations. For Datang, there was no benefit at all.

Princess Wencheng brought advanced Tang culture, economy, agriculture, iron-making, planting, textile and other technologies to Tibet to promote the development of Tubo's economy, culture, agriculture, textile industry and iron-making technology. During the 200 years of the Tubo Dynasty, there were constant wars with the Tang Dynasty. There were more than tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians killed and injured. That's why Li Shen would not agree to the marriage. If it doesn't work, just knock it off. The military strength of the Tang Dynasty during this period can be said to be beyond doubt.

After Lu Dongzan arrived in Chang'an, while waiting for Li Shimin's summons, he visited many important officials in the court, especially officials from aristocratic families, who visited them one by one and presented them with heavy gifts. Hope this can help facilitate this. Ludongzan was a talented person, and later generations commented that he was a famous statesman, military strategist and diplomat. It was he and Songtsen Gampo who proposed the marriage. The culture and various technologies of the Tang Dynasty were what Tubo had longed for. In fact, the purposes of envoys from various countries to propose marriage are similar.

Today, Li Shimin announces the visit of envoys from various countries to the imperial court. There were envoys from Japan, Tubo, Goryeo, Baekje, etc. as well as some small countries in Southeast Asia. The purpose is to get married. There are also many who are trying to stir up marriage between Tubo and Tibet. Between countries, I didn’t get it. No one else can even imagine it.

Li Shimin sat in the hall, and envoys from various countries saluted. This scene made Li Shimin feel proud. Today there are more than 300 small countries that pay tribute. Those present today are all larger countries. There are as many as a dozen. The most important thing for Li Shimin today is to meet with the Tibetan envoys.

"Foreign Minister Lu Dongzan, Prime Minister of Tubo, pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty." Lu Dongzan saluted Li Shimin.

"Well, no courtesy. I wonder what brings you here." Li Shimin said

"I, Tubo Zanpu, have admired the culture of the Tang Dynasty for a long time. I want to marry the Tang Dynasty and strengthen the exchanges between the two countries. I want to coexist peacefully with the Tang Dynasty. I sincerely ask the emperor to grant the title of Princess of the Tang Dynasty to marry our Zanpu Songtsen Gampo. Please Your Majesty agrees?" Lu Dongzan said respectfully

"Tubo envoy, you Tubo invaded Songzhou on our border last year. Now you are here to propose marriage?" Li Shimin asked Lu Dongzan

"Your Majesty, I, Zanpu, would like to express my apology. I would like to donate 5000 taels of gold and hundreds of treasures as a betrothal gift to marry the Princess of the Tang Dynasty." Lu Dongzan is neither humble nor overbearing. He and Songtsen Gampo never acknowledged the defeat.

Only a few thousand of the 20-strong army died. If the eight leaders hadn't tried their best to persuade them to withdraw their troops, Songtsen Gampo would have really wanted to fight the Tang Dynasty's army. Lu Dongzan also believed that their soldiers and horses were not inferior to those of the Tang Dynasty.

Secretary Lang Zheng Jingsi stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Tubo's multiple marriage proposals are enough to show his sincerity. Now I would like to express my apology for the border violations. Our Tang Dynasty governs the country with benevolence. It should have the style of a great country, and the marriage between the two countries is of great significance to the peace between our two countries." It will play a major role. I think we can get married."

"I have a different idea. Tubo is in a corner, a bitter cold land, and it has repeatedly turned against me, the Tang Dynasty. This is obviously to force me, the Tang Dynasty, to marry a princess. How can I, the Tang Dynasty, be afraid of you, a small country, now that we have strong troops and horses?" Cheng Yaojin said. road. He most wanted to fight.

"Gong Lu, the people who suffer from the war between the two countries are the common people. Now that the two countries can marry without using weapons, why not do it?" Cui Renzhi stepped forward to argue.

I heard that Cheng Yaojin said that Tubo was a small country. Lu Dongzan was unwilling. They had just defeated Tuyuhun and occupied the south of Qinghai Lake. Now there are hundreds of thousands of troops. Although it is still unstable internally. Many tribes disobeyed Songtsen Gampo. But it has begun to be slowly trimmed. So he stood up and said: "Sir, although Tubo is located on a plateau, it also has a vast territory and fertile land. Now we, Zanpu, have unified all the ministries and have hundreds of thousands of soldiers. How can we say that our country is a small country?"

"Yes, Duke Lu, you should be careful what you say. The Tang Dynasty is a country of etiquette. How can we treat envoys of other countries like this?" Cui Renzhi said helpfully.

Li Shimin was also very confused. He didn't want to fight with swords either. But we can’t let Tubo be intimidated. So he looked at the servants on his left and right and asked, "What does the Prime Minister think of this matter?"

When Fang Xuanling saw Li Shimin asking him, he hurried forward and answered. : "Your Majesty, it's not just Tubo that wants to make peace now. The envoys from more than a dozen vassal countries present also want to make peace. It's impossible for us to send so many princesses at once."

Fang Xuanling actually also had a headache. It is a problem for so many countries to decide who will give it or not. Changsun Wuji also said: "I think it is better to discuss this matter in the long run."

"Your Majesty the Emperor. I, Tubo Zampu, have asked for marriage many times, but have been rejected by Your Majesty. I heard that the Tuyuhun Turks got the princess of the Tang Dynasty. Why can't I, Tubo? Our country, Zampu, has always shown pity to the Princess of the Tang Dynasty. I hope this This is the first time I can get His Majesty the Emperor's permission. I have brought the betrothal gift in. I will ask His Majesty the Emperor to see it outside the palace." Lu Dongzan became anxious when he heard that there was going to be a delay. Subject to change.

"Your Majesty agrees with the peace between the two countries. It will be a good thing for the Qin and Jin Dynasties. It will save the people of the Tang Dynasty from the suffering of war." Cui Renzhi said loudly.

"I also support the reconciliation between the two countries. To avoid war."

"I also agree"

"Subsidiary"

For a time, Lu Dongzan's walk before entering the palace had an effect, and the officials of the famous family added fuel to the fire. Most of the officials in the entire dynasty came forward to agree to the marriage. A small number of them also remained silent and did not speak.

In fact, Li Shimin also feels that marriage is the best choice under the current situation. Not long after the Tang Dynasty recovered, the people needed to recuperate. And in recent years, we have been fighting continuously. The soldiers also need to take a rest.

"Since all the ministers think that a marriage would be beneficial, I will wait until I see if there is a princess of the right age in the royal family before I make a decision." Li Shimin also nodded in agreement.

"Your Majesty, I heard that Princess Linchuan is still unmarried in her sixteenth year. She is gentle and elegant, and she has been extremely intelligent since she was a child. She was praised by your Majesty in her early years. I think Princess Linchuan is very suitable for her." Censor Wang Weidi stood up and said.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone fell silent. Princess Linchuan is Li Shen's biological sister. I heard that Li Shen's love for this sister has made many princesses jealous. The dowry that has been prepared now includes ten large shops and ten small shops in Dongshi. Li Shen transferred 20 acres from his farmland. There is also the [-] yuan in Concubine Wei's Daji Palace Treasury.

And I heard that as long as she gets married, Li Shen will give Princess Linchuan shares in wine and soap shares. Today's Princess Linchuan is a walking treasure house. All the children of princes, nobles, civil servants and generals of suitable age in Chang'an have thoughts about Linchuan. In the past few years, Li Shimin didn't know how many times he had received memorials asking for marriage. Including Changsun Wuji's. Wang Weiqi said that this was revenge on Li Shen.

"Your Majesty, I just saw King Ji outside the main hall." At this time, Wang De said softly to Li Shimin
