Chapter 638 Acting Online
Solangel naturally didn't believe that Lin Xuan didn't know the purpose of his visit this time, but now that they had something to ask for, they naturally couldn't get angry, and said: "Western Turks launched an attack on me, Xue Yantuo, with the intention of dominating the grasslands, and I, Xue Yantuo, Khan was appointed by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and Xue Yantuo is also a vassal of the Tang Dynasty, so I want to ask the Tang Dynasty to send reinforcements to help us fight back the Western Turks."
"Your envoy's words are wrong. At the beginning, Xue Yantuo and other tribes couldn't bear the oppression of Jieli Khan, and they were willing to join the Tang Dynasty and asked the Tang Dynasty for help. His Majesty not only sent troops to help you destroy the Eastern Turks, but also canonized the barbarians. For sweating."
"The result? You, Xue Yantuo, have violated our Datang border every year. Now that you are in trouble, you come to ask Datang for help. Do you think that people in Datang are fools?" Lin Xuan said coldly.
Solange looked at Lin Xuan in shock. He originally thought that Lin Xuan was just a dude who was sent to the border as a son-in-law to be gilded.
But Lin Xuan's words made him understand that Lin Xuan was not as simple as he imagined.
"The chief executive is joking. I, Xue Yantuo, have always been a vassal of the Tang Dynasty. It was the private behavior of those tribes to come to the Tang Dynasty to plunder. The Great Khan reprimanded them after he knew about it." Solange said.
Naturally, he would not admit that, anyway, Yi Nan did not give orders, but he did not stop them either.
Lin Xuan sneered and said: "I don't believe what you said at all. The people on the border of the Tang Dynasty died because of your looting. If the soldiers on the border knew to help you, they might mutiny. If you It’s for this matter, so don’t say it, I can’t agree.”
Solange looked at Lin Xuan's expression carefully, feeling uncertain in his heart.
What Lin Xuan said before made him feel that Lin Xuan was not that simple.
That being the case, would Lin Xuan fail to see that helping Xue Yantuo would be in the best interest of Datang?
Could it be that Lin Xuan said this on purpose, wanting to gain more benefits?
But Solangelai didn't see anything from Lin Xuan's face, only anger and determination.
This made him unclear for a while what Lin Xuan's plan was.
If Lin Xuan knew what Solange was thinking, he would probably burst into laughter.
Do you think I watched so many TV movies for nothing?
My acting skills are very online, okay?
Solange's heart was moved. He heard that the officials of Datang like to hire some counselors, no matter how big or small. Could it be that what Lin Xuan said before was told by the counselors to him?
Yes, it must be so, Solange came up with a possibility.
Solange came to look around, and found that besides him and Lin Xuan, there were only maids waiting on the sidelines in the hall, and there were several personal guards at the door.
The maid ignored it directly, and Solange came to focus on those soldiers.
Even if Solange came to look down on the soldiers of the Han people, he had to admit that these soldiers were elite, and they were rare warriors on the grasslands.
In this way, Solange felt relieved when he came. Naturally, those maids could not be counselors, and there was no problem with those personal soldiers.
The reason why he thought so was that he had heard that the literati in Tang Dynasty were very thin, and those personal soldiers had a sense of bravery, which literati didn't have.
Solange was determined, he felt that as long as the person who helped Lin Xuan to advise was not there, then it would not be very easy for him to fool Lin Xuan.
How did Lin Xuan know that Solange's visit was so full of inner drama, seeing him not talking for a long time and still looking around, he was a little anxious.
Could it be that I refused too simply and he gave up?
But soon Lin Xuan dismissed this idea. He was eager to use Xue Yantuo's request for help to intervene in the grassland war openly. Not only would this not arouse the suspicion of the Western Turks, but he could also grasp the first-hand information in time, which would be of great help to his subsequent plans. great help.
And Xue Yantuo was also anxious to ask Datang to send reinforcements to help fight against the Western Turks.
So it was impossible for Solange to give up so quickly.
Sure enough, at this moment, Solange came to speak.
"The general manager should know how the Eastern Turks treated the Tang Dynasty back then. Now I, Xue Yantuo, and the Western Turks are restraining each other, so the border of the Tang Dynasty will be relatively peaceful. Once the Western Turks unify the grasslands, it will definitely surpass the original East Turks. There will never be peace on the border," said Solange.
Many people didn't have a clear concept of how strong the East Turks were at that time. All they knew was the Weishui alliance. The East Turks almost came to Chang'an, and within a few years, the East Turks were wiped out by Li Shimin.
According to records in the Sui Dynasty, there were a total of six princess marriages, four of whom were married to Turks.
The Sui Dynasty has only existed for a total of how many years. If it weren't for the fact that the Turks were too powerful, how could they have such frequent marriages.
Princess Yicheng married Turkic Qimin Khan after the death of Princess Anyi, and continued to maintain the relationship between the Sui Dynasty and East Turkic.After Qimin Khan died, he married his three sons, Shibi Khan, Chuluo Khan, and Jieli Khan.
Because of this relationship, Li Yuan was worried that the Eastern Turks would intervene in the anti-Sui period. He spent a lot of money and precious treasures, plus the name of a vassal, in exchange for the Eastern Turks not to interfere in the anti-Sui period.
Even if Li Yuan unified the world, he still paid tribute to East Turks every year.
It's just that this period of history is very shameful to Li Tang, and it was deliberately covered up.
Otherwise, after Li Shimin wiped out the East Turks, Li Yuan would not have attended the celebration banquet in person.
Because Li Shimin helped him wash away this shame.
Closer to the point, because of the strength of the Eastern Turks, the Sui Dynasty had to make marriages many times, and the early Tang Dynasty had to pay tribute many times, so it was impossible for the Tang Dynasty to allow another "Eastern Turks" to appear again.
This is why Solange is full of confidence in this mission.
It's just that he didn't expect that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty would directly ask him to come and talk to Lin Xuan.
"I don't know if your envoy has heard a saying from Datang that there is no free lunch in the world." Lin Xuan pondered for a while and smiled.
He didn't continue to make decisions, otherwise Solange really thought that he was unwilling to agree, and it would be troublesome to turn around and go to Chang'an.
Now the information about the grassland is intermittent, and now that Xue Yantuo has come to Datang for help, Lin Xuan is worried that Xue Yantuo will not be able to survive.
Solange came to know that Lin Xuan was looking for benefits. He was already prepared when he came, and said with a smile: "Of course we won't ask Datang Bai to help us. As long as Datang helps us fight back the Western Turks, our Xue Yantuo I am willing to donate [-] horses and [-] cattle and sheep as thanks."
Lin Xuan sneered endlessly in his heart, such a little thing to send beggars away.
If these things are based on the value in Datang, they are already very rich.
But to Xue Yantuo, it was nothing.
This is like the iron and salt of the Tang Dynasty, when transported to the grassland, the value will increase ten times or even dozens of times.
Adding up all the tribes of Xue Yantuo, a million horses may be an exaggeration, but there must be 60 to [-] horses.
Such a good opportunity, wouldn't it be a pity not to hit them well.
"If that's the case, then please go back." Lin Xuan said lightly.
