The Great Grandson of the Tang Dynasty: The beginning of the slaughter of General Tiance's mans
Chapter 271 Promise to run for the throne
In the Imperial Garden, Queen Deshan was about to walk over, but was stopped by Feng Li.
"Queen, Your Majesty is in a bad mood right now, so you'd better not go there." Feng Li advised tactfully.
"Why, what happened?"
Queen Deshan raised her eyebrows and asked Feng Li.
Feng Li scratched his head. To be honest, he didn't know the specific situation. He just heard that all the ministers came together to put pressure on Li Chengdao this morning, which made Li Chengdao furious.
"You know about the affairs of the imperial court. Those civil servants also know that if the emperor is not happy, they will not be happy."
Feng Li shrugged.
"I know, I'll go take a look, it's okay."
Queen Deshan couldn't help but smile, and then walked past Feng Li towards Li Chengdao.
Li Chengdao, who was dancing the Fangtian Painted Halberd, felt someone approaching from behind. He stabbed behind him with the halberd. The tip of the halberd hovered steadily an inch away from Queen Deshan's eyebrows.
But Queen Deshan stood motionless, not even taking a step back, her courage was astonishing.
"How did you come?"
Seeing that it was Queen Deshan, Li Chengdao was slightly startled and put down the Fangtian Painted Halberd in his hand.
Queen Deshan smiled and said, "I heard that a minister in the court made His Majesty angry today, so I came here to take a look. What exactly made His Majesty so angry?"
Li Chengdao hesitated slightly. He had not yet decided how to talk to Queen Deshan about this, so he said casually: "It's nothing, you don't have to worry."
Seeing his expression, Queen Deshan couldn't help but ask: "Is it because of Rou'er's canonization? It doesn't matter if you don't want the fiefdom in the Tang Dynasty."
"If this is really the case, it would be easier to handle."
Li Chengdao sighed.
"The ministers of the DPRK and China jointly submitted a petition asking me to accept you as my concubine, and at the same time establish the Liaodong Protectorate, gradually take over the Silla regime, and recover the Liaodong Peninsula."
He finally decided not to hide the matter from Queen Deshan, because sooner or later he would have to confess, and he could not refuse the ministers' requests.
"what?"
No matter how calm Queen Deshan was, her expression changed after suddenly hearing the news, "Take back the Liaodong Peninsula to the Tang Dynasty?!"
"Ah."
Li Chengdao responded dully, as an emperor, he couldn't even promise his own woman, which made him feel very unhappy.
After sighing, he continued: "All the ministers in the court unanimously presented the report, forcing me to make a decision. I...can't refuse."
Queen Deshan looked a little dazed and fell silent because of Li Chengdao's words.
All the ministers in the court united and presented the memorial in unison, and she knew very well what this meant.
This represents the will of the ministers, a will that cannot be rejected by the emperor!
Of course the emperor has the right to refuse, but this is not something any wise emperor would do.
If the ministers' request is unreasonable, that's fine. The key is to recover the Liaodong Peninsula, which will be of great benefit to the Tang Dynasty without any harm. How can you refuse?
"Feel sorry."
Li Chengdao sighed softly and took the dazed Queen Deshan into his arms.
Queen Deshan did not refuse, and was hugged by Li Chengdao, but she looked a little lonely, pursed her lips and said nothing.
She does not blame Li Chengdao, because she understands that this is not something that Li Chengdao can change. Li Chengdao is not only her husband, but also the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. He carries a huge burden on his shoulders. This is his responsibility.
"This is the sorrow of being weak..."
Queen Deshan once again felt a deep sense of powerlessness. Silla was weak, so her fate could only be manipulated by the Tang Dynasty, without any room for resistance.
There was nothing she could do except watch it happen.
But Silla was also lucky. Due to her efforts, Silla at least avoided the fate of being trampled by cavalry like Goguryeo and Baekje, and the domestic people and troops would not suffer unnecessary casualties.
This is the best result for Silla.
"I understand, Your Majesty, you don't have to blame yourself."
Queen Deshan put away the sadness in her heart and smiled at Li Chengdao.
She has looked away. Since it is an unstoppable fate, let it be. Why bother struggling in vain?
At least she found someone she loved.
"Don't worry, I won't treat you badly. If you give birth to a prince again after entering the palace, then I will give him the qualification to compete for the throne."
Li Chengdao once again made his promise.
Queen Deshan's beautiful eyes widened when she heard this. After being surprised, she couldn't help but said hesitantly: "But...will the ministers in the court agree?"
No matter how you say she is a foreign woman, just like when Li Chengdao announced her pregnancy, most of the ministers opposed letting her remaining child become the prince of the Tang Dynasty.
"They will agree, and they have to agree."
Li Chengdao said unceremoniously.
……
The next morning, Li Chengdao walked into the Tai Chi Hall with a gloomy face.
After seeing Li Chengdao's expression, all the officials in the court felt uneasy; some ministers, such as the Six Ministers, secretly rolled up their sleeves and prepared to remonstrate again.
Li Chengdao walked up the Kowloon steps and sat on the dragon chair.
Upon seeing this, the ministers in the palace gritted their teeth and prepared to risk their lives to remonstrate again.
do my best!
However, at this moment, Li Chengdao's voice suddenly sounded.
"I have carefully considered your suggestions when I go back. The Liaodong Protectorate... can be established."
After Li Chengdao's words fell, the ministers who were preparing to remonstrate again were stunned, and had not yet put down their rolled up sleeves.
Your Majesty actually... agreed? !
Jia Xu, on the other hand, looked as expected, with a smile on his face.
When the ministers were shocked, Li Chengdao continued: "...Recovering the Liaodong Peninsula is a major event. It must be a smooth transition and not cause resistance among the people of Silla. Therefore, the selection of the governor needs to be carefully considered."
"In addition, regarding Queen Deshan, I will make her a noble concubine, and her heirs will also have the right to inherit my throne. Do you have any objections?"
Li Chengdao's majestic gaze swept over every minister.
Jia Xu took the lead and said: "Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and all the ministers have no objection to this decision!"
"I second the proposal."
Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui also spoke in agreement.
The leading ministers all said this, and the other ministers followed suit.
Li Chengdao so easily agreed to set up a Protectorate to regain Liaodong, which really surprised them.
As for the heirs of the Queen of Silla, who have the right to become princes and compete for the throne, what's wrong with this?
Once Silla is recovered, it will become the territory of the Tang Dynasty. The Queen of Silla will naturally be regarded as a subject of the Tang Dynasty. What will happen if the children she gives birth to compete for the throne?
So no one objected.
The decision regarding Silla’s handling was thus decided. ..
