Rule the Roost in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 818: High standard courtesy

Views:

Aviya is not very tall, and his cheekbones are more prominent. His eyes seem to have two brown ambers in them. Because of the protrusion of his cheekbones, his deep-set eyes look more mysterious and profound. This is also the reason why he is about to The fifty-year-old food king seems to have an elegant temperament about him.

The appearance of the big eater has always been famous for its handsome appearance, and the big eater Aviye is obviously the best among them. Whether it is his walking posture or the movements of his hands and feet, he has a strong sense of elegance and elegance. Nobility, majesty and perseverance demonstrate his royal power.

The eleven nobles did not have the opportunity to greet Li Hong at the gate of the palace, because Aviye actually walked to the palace of Nuoda with Li Hong after a few warm greetings with Li Hong. .

The many ministers and eleven nobles behind them immediately turned around and followed the two of them, shouting and swarming into the palace.

Li Hong only met the queen of Dashi after entering the palace. As for Saleh, he and Yeyue were standing on both sides of Awiye just now.

Li Hong was still a little surprised that Yeyue could be the translator between him and Awiye. When facing Saleh, Saleh shrugged to him secretly, saying that he did not know that Yeyue was How to convince their father to let a majestic food princess condescend to be a translator.

"What are you doing with nearly 300,000 soldiers in the Four Towns of Anxi in your Tang Dynasty? I want your most sincere answer, not a deceptive and vague answer." Yeyue glared at Li Hong, and then said crisply Translating Aviye's words.

"I heard that His Majesty the King is planning to invade the Tang Dynasty again. Naturally, it will be used to resist the enemy." Li Hong ignored Yeyue's warning eyes and said to Aviye who was walking side by side.

Yeyue followed the two of them in the middle. She could only see their profiles. Listening to her father's straightforward question about Datang's direct hostility towards Dashi, Yeyue really wanted to kick Li Hongyi. foot.

But when she thought about the eleven nobles and other ministers not far behind her, and even the queen was among the crowd, she had no choice but to resist the urge to kick her and translated Li Hong's words intact. Listen to Aviye.

"Do you think the 300,000 Tang Dynasty's cavalry can withstand my invincible cavalry attack?" Aviye suddenly stopped and looked sideways at Li Hong, who also stopped.

"We won the war in the past two years, especially in the fight for Tochara. The Tang Dynasty defeated you. And..." Li Hong looked at Aviye's deep and mysterious brown eyes, and looked at him out of the corner of his eye. Sweeping away the worry in Ye Yue's eyes, he continued to say easily: "His Majesty the King should already know that on the way to your country, I used two warships of the Tang Dynasty to annihilate fifty of your warships, and this is The result of my mercy, otherwise, Saleh would be swimming in the Red Sea or feeding the sharks."

Although Aviye couldn't understand what Li Hong was talking about, he could still feel the hint of arrogance and disdain in Li Hong's tone.

Yeyue glared at Li Hong again anxiously and angrily. She was thinking about how to tactfully translate Li Hong's words to Aviye when she heard Aviye say: "Translate it to me word for word."

After listening to Yeyue's translation, Aviye was not angry, nor did he move forward. Instead, he and Li Hong stood quietly in full view of everyone behind them.

Just when everyone was stunned and the queen was about to come over, Aviye stretched out his hand to stop the movement of the crowd, looked at Li Hong and said in a deep voice: "Then why did you come to my restaurant? Don't tell me it's just for the night. The moon comes."

"Yes, I just came here simply for Yeyue." Li Hong replied with a smile on his lips.

"What if I don't agree?"

"You will agree. In order to ease the pressure on yourself, you would rather use her as a bargaining chip to marry into the Hashim family. So if I can help you transfer the pressure, why don't you marry me in the Tang Dynasty? Thirty. What does Wan Dajun’s gift mean to them, whether it’s Hashim or Khawalij, and to His Majesty the King, and what do I need to say?” Li Hong glanced at the eleven people not far away. The noble, although he has still identified the eleven people side by side, from their positions, he can roughly determine the positions of the Hashim family, the Kordo family and the Khawalij family.

"You know our Dashi very well." Aviye softened his tone and began to move forward.

Li Hong deliberately slowed down and walked side by side with Yeyue, but was kicked in the calf by Yeyue in a hidden way, so he had to continue walking side by side with Aviye, leaving the "translator" alone. behind.

Aviya said that he knew Dashi very well because he did not expect that Li Hong would know so much about the rights of King Dashi and the division of power in Dashi, and would know that his rights were not supreme, and even Subject to the constraints of other nobles.

"An army of 300,000 people can't quench our thirst with water from afar. If you come here to feast on me this time, if you really want me to see your sincerity, whether it's for me, Yeyue, or for the peace and friendship between our two countries, , you need to show more sincerity. I am very grateful to you for bringing me so many gifts from the Tang Dynasty, but these cannot impress me, and even... these are not enough to balance my treatment of you today, including letting you. Three thousand of you from the Tang Dynasty entered my capital." At the entrance of the palace banquet hall, after everyone entered, Aviye and Li Hong still stood on one side of the door and began to continue the core negotiations.

"The benefits you can give me can also be given by others. Except her, of course." Li Hong pointed at Yeyue, and then continued: "Perhaps the other eleven nobles under your rule are so polite to you. My reason is that I am very grateful for the courtesy you gave me today, but if you want me to show more sincerity, or to have an army of 300,000 to guarantee your throne, what can I get? You?" Li Hong stood on the steps, and Wang Quan liked to stand at the top.

Just like the Daming Palace, now standing on the steps of the Dashi Palace, you can basically have an unobstructed view of the capital of Dashi.

Aviya was very cunning. He didn't mention Yeyue as a bargaining chip. Instead, he used his Dashi's powerful military strength and the royal family's dignity, including the empty promises of giving himself such high standards of courtesy, to bargain with him.

He wanted to cooperate with him with full sincerity without being coaxed by other nobles, so as to become a tool that he could use.

What's even more outrageous is that although during the entire welcome banquet, Aviye almost promoted himself to the same level as their gods, he couldn't even use the half of Tocharo's land occupied by the food for food. They are not willing to use it as a bargaining chip for cooperation.

This is a complete land controller, who likes to use the vast territory to show the greatness of their food, and likes to expand eastward and westward by plundering land to bring wealth.

Li Hong knew very well that there was no possibility of cooperation between him and Aviye. Aviye looked down on the Tang Dynasty at all. Even on land or at sea, Dashi's army was defeated by the Tang Dynasty with an exception on May 1st. Under the cavalry and battleships, he still looked down upon Datang and Li Hong.

Although everything he does seems to value His Highness the Crown Prince of the East, this is just an appearance. It is a ploy to use the power of the East to help him eliminate dissidents.

Li Hong believes that if he agrees to cooperate with him and shows the so-called sincerity that Aviya wants: that is to use the three thousand people he has now to help him get rid of or weaken Hashem or the Halijiva family. , or kill the governor of a province controlled by other families to express his true sincerity to his Aviya.

By then, as the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, I will not even be able to leave the country. After helping Avi Ye cut off the domestic pressure, I will be accused by Avi Ye of killing their domestic nobles, or Either die directly in Dashi, or he will be left in Dashi forever, thus leaving Aviye with a bigger excuse to attack Tang Dynasty.

With these empty promises, seemingly valued courtesies, and small favors from the royal family, Aviye was able to achieve his goal of killing two birds with one stone without any effort, eliminating the nobles who opposed him in the country, and then continued to attack the country. Don's excuse.

Li Hong once almost believed that Aviya and the Dashi royal family valued him. Even yesterday, he had absolute confidence that he could freely roam between the royal family and the nobility, and thus use the two. The conflict between the two parties benefited the fishermen. In the end, under his own interference, he forced the empire to fall apart and the princes to separatist regimes.

But now it seems that the original plan is not feasible at all. The 300,000 troops far away in Anxi can play a certain role in deterring Dashi, but they are not completely able to rely on them to move freely between the royal family of Dashi and Dashi. The weight among nobles.

However, this also allowed Li Hong to remove some psychological obstacles, that is, he only had a little sympathy for the royal family of Dashi. At the same time, it also confirmed that he must increase the conflict between the royal family and the nobles, so as to find a way to benefit the big food family. Tang Dynasty, the purpose of dividing the nobles in their country.

Looking at Li Hong's retreating figure, watching Yeyue following Li Hong, the two of them talking in low voices, Aviye, who was originally elegant and wise, frowned, and his mysterious and deep eyes radiated a cold light like substance.

"I underestimated the prince of the Tang Dynasty. He is obviously not satisfied with such courtesy. It seems that he needs something real to impress him. However, we still have a chance to see how other nobles get in touch with him. "Okay." Aviyeh frowned and said to Saleh next to him.
