Yuchi Jin felt disgusted and his words became more and more sharp.
She stood up from her seat, her eyes frosty as she stared at Han Mengyin and said, "In the fourth year of Jinglong, Princess Jincheng married the king. One year later, in the second year of Jingyun, the Tibetans forced Emperor Ruizong to cede the Jiuqu area in Hexi to Tibet."
"According to records, 'After Tubo obtained Jiuqu, the land was fertile and suitable for stationing soldiers and raising livestock, and it was close to the Tang territory, so they rebelled again and led their troops to invade.' This was Tubo's repayment to the Tang Dynasty after it asked for the princess."
"Also, after the Battle of Lengxing, in the fifth year of Kaiyuan, Princess Gu'an married the Xi leaders Li Da and Li Lusu; in the fourth year of Tianbao, Princess Yifang married the Xi leader Li Yanchong; but when An Lushan rebelled, countless Xi people rushed to join him, fought for him, and ravaged the Central Plains. This was the Xi people's return to the Tang Dynasty after they asked for the princesses."
"An Lushan was powerful, and the Xi people feared him and therefore attached themselves to him. They never cared about the friendship with the Tang Dynasty. For them, the marriage was just a way to enjoy the glory and warmth brought to them by the Tang princess. When it came time to bully the Tang Dynasty, they never showed any mercy."
"As for you Khitans, in the tenth year of Kaiyuan, Princess Yan married Khitan leaders Li Yuyu and Li Tuyu; in the thirteenth year of Kaiyuan, Princess Donghua married Khitan Guanghua Prince Li Shaogu; in the twenty-fifth year of Kaiyuan, Princess Yongle married Khitan Songmo Prince Li Shihuo; in the fourth year of Tianbao, Princess Jingle married Khitan King Li Huaijie, and so on."
"Han Mengyin, you should be familiar with these princesses. Several of them were brutally killed by you Khitans. How did the others have a good ending?"
"Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, you Khitans have had enough conflicts with the Tang Dynasty. Do you want me to list them one by one?"
"With your usual style and shameless behavior, who would feel comfortable sending their little girl into a wolf's den?"
Facts speak louder than words. The Great Tang Dynasty, the Great Tang Dynasty. It is true that the Tang Dynasty was once powerful in history, but it was also the most humiliating dynasty in history. The reason was that the Tang Dynasty was the dynasty with the most princesses married off, and the relationship between the royal family and other ethnic groups was the most chaotic.
While we show off the power of the Tang Dynasty, we should never forget these humiliations. After all, no matter whether it is as big as the country or as small as the individual, only by admitting past shortcomings can we achieve more brilliant progress. Knowing shame and then being brave is not empty talk.
According to incomplete statistics, during the Tang Dynasty, princesses married one Tuyuhun, two Tubo, three Xi, four Khitan, one Bukhanna, and five Uighurs.
What's even more tragic is that some princesses were brutally murdered by foreigners within a year of their marriage. Wouldn't any man with a bloody conscience feel humiliated and angry when hearing this news
"Well, madam, we, the Khan, are loyal to the city and are sincere in pursuing Madam Ning'er. Something like what you said will never happen." Han Mengyin's eyes flickered and he quickly assured her.
However, even he himself does not have the confidence to fulfill his promise. To put it bluntly, it is worse than fart. Farting can potentially create some effect, but it is foreseeable that his promise will not have any effect at all.
"Hmph, since your Khitan Khan is so loyal, and my general has a younger brother who is only two years old, I believe your Khan would not only have sons but also daughters. Wouldn't it be better to let your Khan choose a daughter of appropriate age to marry our young general?" In the hall, He Huihu and Cheng Huaixin had just surrendered, so they naturally did not dare to speak rashly.
Yang Zaixing sent troops to Youyu City, so naturally he could not speak here; the person who spoke was obviously Zhao Wu, the captain of the Ghost Guard, who was now disguised as a general. He looked at Han Mengyin with a sneer on his face and said mischievously.
Zhao Wu was also an old soldier and had not received much education, but he heard the disgust in Yuchi Jin's words and without thinking, he attacked Han Mengyin.
"Uh" Zhao Wu's rash words choked Han Mengyin.
Whether it was Yuchi Jin or Zhao Wu, the meaning they expressed was very clear, that is, there was no way to marry Zhu Ning'er, unless the Khitans were willing to marry their daughters to Heshuo, otherwise there would be no deal.
Moreover, there is no suitable candidate in Heshuo. Didn't Zhao Wu say that Zhu Li has only one younger brother who is two years old? Even if the marriage is ridiculous, there is no record of marriage at the age of two.
The marriage could not be carried out, which made Han Mengyin's face turn pale and blue, looking very ugly. He thought that the thing that was 100% certain to happen was not done, so the matter of rescuing Yanmujin and Yuelixin became even more difficult.
What's more, he had already made such confident statements before he understood Yuchi Jin's attitude. Now he was rejected in person. This slap in the face was really loud. It would be strange if he could look happy.
However, he had a mission to accomplish, and there were some things he had to say. His expression flickered for a while, and Han Mengyin raised his hands again, and said with a stiff face, "Madam, do you mean you don't approve of this marriage?"
"What? Just because I don't agree, do you Khitans still dare to force it?" Yuchi Jin narrowed his eyes and replied coldly.
No one in the hall, whether civil or military, said anything about Yuchi Jin's intention. Now the power of Heshuo was still in the upper hand against the Khitans, and they had the initiative. Besides, all the civil and military officials were very smart, so there was no need for them to deliberately go against Yuchi Jin at this time.
The debate over marriage has been unresolved throughout the ages. Even in later generations, historians are still divided into two factions. Naturally, there were some people among the civil and military officials of Heshuo who disagreed with Yuchi Jin's decision, but they did not refute it.
"How dare I influence your decision, Madam? I just feel a little regretful that such a good story has not been realized." Han Mengyin said half-truthfully, with a dull tone.
"Since Madam doesn't agree with this matter, I dare not argue too much. However, Yanmujin, the beloved daughter of the Prime Minister of the Yaoyan Tribe, the strongest tribe of Khitan, Ti La, was unfortunately captured by the general because of her willful playfulness. I wonder if Madam can consider returning Yanmujin to me for the sake of our future harmonious relationship so that they can be reunited?"
As the marriage proposal failed, Han Mengyin's tone softened a lot, but there was still a hint of toughness in it. When she mentioned that Khitan was the strongest tribe, there was a threat in her tone.
Unfortunately, his words instantly angered the civil and military officials of Heshuo.
An old man with a straightforward character immediately walked out of the queue angrily, and came to Han Mengyin with a "dang, dang, dang..." sound, spitting out of his mouth, splashing Han Mengyin's face directly, and said angrily: "Willful and playful, are you talking about Yanmujin being willful and playful?"
Suddenly, he saw an old man with gray hair, who looked like he had been cheated out of his life, rushing up to him. Han Mengyin's heart trembled, but he still bowed and said politely: "I wonder who you are..."
"Hmph, I am an old man. I am not a good person. I am not a good person. I am not a good person. I am not a good person. I am not a good person. I am not a good person. I am not a good person. I am not a good person. I am not a good person.
"Humph, you are so willful and playful. Then I have to ask you, Fengzhou originally had 8,600 households. Yan Mujin's "playfulness" has reduced the 8,600 households in Fengzhou to less than 6,000 households. Can this still be considered playing?"
"General Gao Su's 30,000 soldiers stationed in Fengzhou, together with General Zhang Jingda's 30,000 elite troops who went north to support, were killed by Yan Mujin's 'playfulness'. 20,000 soldiers will never come back. This doesn't count as the number of people who died from the serious injuries. Can this also be considered a playfulness?"
"If this is called 'playing around', then why don't we let our general take our men and horses to your Khitan tribe to 'play around' for a bit?" Dou Cheng said.
Dou?? Pry the brakes and the emperor and Huan?? The glass? The silk and the water are stolen and the disaster is exposed? The servant? The witty ditch is exhausted? /p>
Why did the former big boss become a small household manager now? This has to do with an embarrassing thing this person did.
When this old gentleman took office as the Jiedushi of Hedong, a riot happened to break out in Hedong. For him, who had no troops and no power, facing the riot really made him worried and unable to sleep or eat.
As the saying goes, "A wise man will make a mistake in a thousand considerations, and a fool will gain something in a thousand considerations." This guy was forced into a corner, and suddenly he had an idea.
He didn't know whether it was a good idea or not, but it was the only idea he could think of, so he implemented it immediately.
So, notices to hire people at a huge cost to suppress the rebellion were posted all over the streets and alleys of Hedong. Needless to say, the rebellion was actually suppressed.
After the great victory, Dou??Ou 11 Zheng?Woo Jian Jiao Xun Na Song?Angry and moxibustion appearance Huai Qu knocked on the kitchen??Swearing insects and locusts?Han Po Rong?Gather?Slow Meng Zhi Can Si Lu??Dog 14?Mao?/p>
As a result, this old gentleman became an unprecedented Hedong governor who was chased by creditors every day.
When the Tang court learned about this, they thought he was an incompetent governor, so they demoted him again and again, until he was finally demoted to an insignificant minor official, who followed his old friend Zheng Congdang to make a living.
When Zheng Congdang was defeated in Taiyuan and fled to Shuozhou, he followed him eagerly and worked as the Sihu official in Shuozhou, doing his job very diligently.
When it comes to the changes in population in this small piece of land in Heshuo, his brain is even more useful than computers in later generations.
Such a serious person was angered by Han Mengyin's word "playful". It is conceivable that others would be angry as well.
I don't know what it means to be a royal relative. I don't know what it means to be a royal relative. I don't know what it means to be a royal relative. I don't know what it means to be a royal relative. I don't know what it means to be a royal relative.
The crowd was outraged and voices of condemnation rose up like waves. Han Mengyin, who was surrounded in the middle, looked very excited. His face turned blue and purple faster than a revolving lantern. Even so, he didn't dare to say a word for a long time.
Seeing the mess, Guo Qizuo coughed lightly and shouted in a deep voice: "Well, in the hall, it looks like a street vendor or a street vendor. How can it be so unbecoming."
Following the voice, all the civil servants in Heshuo reluctantly kept silent, wiped the spit from their faces, and returned to their original places in a huff.
Seeing everyone return to their seats, Guo Qizuo turned to look at Han Mengyin and said coldly: "Yanmujin and Yuelixin have committed evil upon our Han people. Our general will personally demand retribution from the Khitans."
"As for your unreasonable request for Yanmujin, please forgive me, Guo, on behalf of my general, for not agreeing to it; the eight Khitan tribes are powerful, but they owe the blood debt to the people of Heshuo, and they must pay it with blood."
