Chapter 475 Jin Chunqiu
Seeing that Yuan Gai Su Wen also agreed, Jin Benyang was very happy, and said with a smile on his face: "Our Fusang admires the culture of the Tang Dynasty. We not only make offerings every year, but also send people to study in the Tang Dynasty. But because of some trivial matters, we sent our Fusang envoy to the Tang Dynasty to expel us. This is a humiliation to our Fusang. This time I went to Datang to get Datang to agree that Fusang should continue to send Tang envoys to Datang to study, but I heard that Many Tang officials look down on us small countries, and will stop them at that time, and I hope you will support us tomorrow."
The Tubo envoy said: "We Tubo must be honest and forthright. I also have a task this time, to propose marriage to the Tang emperor on behalf of our lord. I hope everyone can help me when the time comes."
The others were not fools, and did not express their views immediately.
It was obvious that Fusang and Tubo had other demands, and they had no other intentions, and they came to Datang just for Datang's return gift.
The reason for agreeing to join forces is also to put pressure on Datang, so that the gift from Datang will be more generous.
Although helping Fusang and Tubo is not bad for them, it is also not good, so why help them?
Jin Benyang's face was gloomy and uncertain. He thought that if he called these people over and said something, they would help, but he didn't expect that each of these people was smarter than the other, and they didn't take the bait at all.
"Everyone, I have something to say!" Yuan Gai Su Wen said loudly.
Attracted by Yuan Gai Suwen's voice, everyone turned their attention to Yuan Gai Suwen.
Although Goguryeo is very powerful in these countries.
But most of their countries have no borders with Goguryeo, and Yuan Gai Su Wen is only a deputy envoy, so many people don't take Yuan Gai Su Wen seriously.
But this does not include Silla and Baekje.
The relationship between Silla, Baekje, and Goguryeo is similar to that of the Three Kingdoms period.
The three countries have fought each other directly for hundreds of years. When Goguryeo was strong, Silla and Baekje jointly resisted Goguryeo.
When Silla was strong, Baekje also joined forces with Goguryeo to fight against Silla.
The three countries are united and hostile to each other.
Now that Goguryeo is powerful, the envoys of Baekje and Silla naturally knew the nobles of Goguryeo very well.
Although Yuan Gai Su Wen was not very famous at this time, they dare not underestimate Yuan Gai Su Wen just because Yuan Gai Su Wen's surname is Yuan.
After Yuan Gai Suwen attracted everyone's attention, he said with a smile: "Everyone, I think we should help Fusang and Tubo, not only that, but when we get the return gift list from the Tang Dynasty, we can ask the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty for more gifts." .”
The Tang Dynasty was talking about rewards, so they would naturally not admit it. Rewards are generally used for kings to ministers, or suzerains to subordinates.
Many of their countries are not the vassal states of Datang, so naturally they don't recognize that Datang is a reward to them, and privately call it a gift in return.
"Who will bring it up then?" Jin Chunqiu pointed directly at the core.
Many people were moved by Yuan Gai Suwen's words, and they calmed down after hearing Jin Chunqiu's words.
Their doing so will definitely arouse Datang's anger, and whoever mentions it will bear the greatest firepower.
Who will mention it then?
Their task is to bring back the gift from Datang, and getting more is just icing on the cake.
But if Datang is offended, he might die when he goes back.
Jin Chunqiu went to Goguryeo many times, and Yuangai Suwen knew him naturally.
Jin Chunqiu has an extraordinary status. He is the grandson of King Jinzhi of Silla and the grandson of King Jinpyeong of Silla. The current King of Silla, Queen Seondeok, is his aunt.
But now Silla is the weakest country among the three kingdoms, even if Jin Chunqiu is the royal family of Silla, Yeon Gai Suwen doesn't care.
Yuan Gai Suwen said indifferently: "I brought it up, so naturally I will bring it up."
"Since Deputy Envoy Yuan has said so, I definitely support it."
"I support it too."
……
Some people charge forward, it is good for them to become them, and some people will bear the main firepower if they fail, why not agree?
Yuan Gai Suwen sneered in his heart, what big things can these scumbags accomplish?
"What I mean is that we should help Fusang and Tubo first, and then ask Tang Emperor to ask Tang to give more gifts. If everyone has no objections, we will do so at that time." Yuan Gai Suwen said.
"We listened to Deputy Envoy Yuan." Except for a few people, the rest said in unison.
Jin Benyang scolded Yuan Gai Suwen all over his heart. Although Yuan Gai Suwen persuaded everyone to help him, he couldn't be happy.
He recruited people here, but now Yuan Gai Suwen is the main focus, how can he be happy?
Tsumotoyo comforted himself, as long as he could complete the emperor's mission, nothing else mattered.
Thinking of this, Tsumoto Yang felt a lot better.
Everyone discussed some details before going back.
……
When Jin Chunqiu returned to the courtyard where he lived, the deputy envoy hurriedly asked: "My lord, I don't know why those thieves in Fusang are looking for your lord?"
Speaking of which, Fusang and Silla are considered feuds. More than 100 years ago, Fusang attacked Silla, and Silla lost several cities in a row, so it could only ask Goguryeo for help.
If Goguryeo hadn't sent troops to support Silla, it was very likely that Fusang would destroy the country.
Silla people don't like Fusang people very much.
Jin Chunqiu told the deputy envoy about the alliance of various countries.
"My lord, we didn't tell the queen about such a big matter, we decided on our own, what should we do when the queen blames me?" the deputy envoy said worriedly.
Jin Chunqiu said with a smile: "I just deal with them, so many people agree, if I refuse, can they let me go?"
"Then what should we do now?" the deputy envoy asked.
Jin Chunqiu pondered for a while and said: "Baekje is eyeing us Silla now, and Goguryeo has never agreed to join forces, and its attitude is unclear. Only by making good relations with Datang, Silla will have a way out. I am going to tell the Emperor Datang about this and win Datang's favor."
Jin Chunqiu has always advocated the pro-Tang strategy, but many people in Silla disagree.
It is said that it is pro-Tang, but it is actually becoming a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty.
Paying tribute to the Tang Dynasty does not mean that it is a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty.
Once it becomes a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty, the change of the Silla throne requires the consent of the Tang Dynasty.
If Datang needs it, they still need to send troops to assist Datang.
And Silla is not at the end of its rope now, so they naturally don't want to have an overlord on their heads.
"What your lord said is that if you can win Datang's favor, the queen will be very happy when you go back." The deputy envoy said.
Jin Chunqiu confessed: "I'm going to see the officials of Honglu Temple now, if someone comes, you find a way to deal with it."
Because of the Chinese New Year, only one temple minister was on duty in Honglu Temple, and the rest were absent.
Sicheng's surname is Huang, and Jin Chunqiu also knows him. After seeing the ceremony, Jin Chunqiu told Huang Sicheng about Jin Benyang's invitation of envoys from various countries to unite.
After hearing this, Huang Sicheng's face changed drastically, and he was sweating coldly.
He was on duty today, and he didn't realize that something like this happened. If it was found out afterwards, he would be in big trouble.
"Thank you brother Jin for telling me, I will report to Master Liu right away." Huang Sicheng said gratefully.
Usually, although he was polite to these envoys, he looked down on the envoys from these small countries in his heart, how could he call them brothers and sisters.
Now that Jin Chunqiu told him such a big news, he was saved from danger, and even made meritorious deeds. Now Jin Chunqiu is deeper than his brother in his eyes.
"The matter is of great importance, Mr. Huang should report it as soon as possible." Jin Chunqiu said.
"I call you brother, why do you still call me lord? If you don't mind, just call me brother." Huang Sicheng said displeased.
The corner of Jin Chunqiu's mouth twitched, you're not sixty, you're fifty, and I'm only in my early thirties, so the devil wants to call you brothers.
But he didn't dare to offend Huang Sicheng, so he could only laugh and say: "Brother Huang, that little brother will offend you."
"Haha, that's right, I'll go see Mr. Liu first, and I'll treat you to the best wine in Chang'an later." Huang Sicheng said.
The Minister of Honghe Temple was originally Li Daozong, but later Li Shimin transferred Li Daozong to be Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, and the position of Minister of Honghe Temple became vacant.
After careful consideration, Li Shimin transferred Liu Hongji back to be the Minister of Honghe Temple.
Although Liu Hongji's reputation in history is not very great, it does not mean that he has no ability.
