The Turkic Envoy's Purpose! Flowers!
The Tang Emperor, Li Shiming, was still hesitating when he suddenly heard the words of the Emperor's teacher, Jun Ruyu. Although Jun Ruyu was only a seventeen-year-old youth, in Li Shiming's heart, he was like an indomitable giant that could hold up the sky of the Tang Empire.
Therefore, when he heard Jun Ruyu's words, Li Shiming no longer hesitated.
"Listen to the emperor's teacher and summon that Turkic envoy!”
As soon as Li Shi Min finished speaking, the guards passed the message to him.
A few moments later, two bearded Turks with wide faces and glazed eyes strode in.
One of them was young, while the other was old.
The elder was about forty years old, and his body was slightly thinner than the average Turkic. However, compared to the Tang Dynasty, he was a bit burly.
The younger one was about seventeen or eighteen years old. He had a broad face, slightly red skin, and blue eyes that flickered with a fierce light. Even from afar, one could feel the fierce aura on his body.
Only two Turkic envoys had entered the hall, but they did not seem nervous in front of the civil and military officials. Instead, they walked with straight foreheads and proud expressions.
When they reached the front of the hall, the two of them placed their hands on their chests and said in Turkic etiquette,"Turkic Imperial Tutor Lu Dongshan greets the Emperor of the Great Tang.”
"Ashina Wendi, son of Khanan Khan, greets the Emperor of the Great Tang!”
Although they had said that they had seen Tian Zi, none of them lowered their heads. Both of them looked straight at Li Shi Min without any courtesy!
Li Shi Min was a little unhappy, but he didn't show it."The Turkic envoy has come from afar. Why can't he go rest first, instead of rushing to see me?”
Ashina Wendi said,""We Turks have always been straightforward and do things when we have something to say. We are not like you hypocrites who always speak without thinking! It was better to rest after finishing the proper business.”
Hearing Ashina Wende's words, the civil and military officials 'faces turned ugly.
Ashina's words were very vulgar, and his tone was full of disdain for the way the people of the Great Tang did things. He was not just speaking rudely, he was rejecting the moral traditions of the people of the Central Plains that had existed for thousands of years.
Ever since the Sage Confucius started to teach Confucianism, the people of the Central Plains had been modest and virtuous. They would always speak their mind and give each other some face. This was a tradition that had been going on for thousands of years. It was the outstanding virtue that distinguished the Chinese people from other vulgar races.
However, Ah Shina's words today were simply heart-breaking.
All the officials understood Ashina's meaning and felt ashamed and angry.
Ashina Wende seemed to not know what he meant and was still very pleased with himself. Beside him, the Imperial Advisor Lu Dongshan was also stroking his beard and looking calm.
"Preposterous!"
At this moment, some scholars finally couldn't take it anymore.
But just as he stood up and did not say anything, he heard Jun Ruyu's voice.""Your Majesty, this person insulted our teacher and attempted to disrupt the foundation of Confucianism in the Great Tang. I implore Your Majesty to execute him so that the world can be cleansed!”
Shua!
Hearing Jun Ruyu's words, Ashina Wende and Lu Dongshan both turned their heads and looked at Jun Ruyu.
Ashina Wende's face was extremely gloomy, while Lu Dongshan's eyes flashed with a bright light.
"Who are you? Who do you think you are? Ignorant child, you're just spouting nonsense. I'm just discussing things based on facts. How can I allow you to spout nonsense!”Ashina Wendi said disdainfully.
When Jun Ruyu heard this, she still smiled faintly and said,""I don't know who I am, but I know one thing. The whole world listens to what I say! Therefore, you insulted the saints of Huaxia and messed up the foundation of Confucianism.”
"You…"
Ashina Wendi looked at Li Shiming and said rudely,""Your Majesty, I represent the Turks, an envoy. I came to your Great Tang, but I was made difficult by your Great Tang brat. I implore Your Majesty to kill this person!”
Li Shi Min was initially furious, but after hearing Ashina Wende's words, it was as if he had heard a hilarious joke.
"Ashina Wendi, do you know who he is?”Li Shi Min asked.
Ashina Wendi said disdainfully,"What an ignorant child!"”
"Xuanling, tell him who the ignorant kid he spoke of is!”Li Shiming looked at Fang Xuanling and said.
Hearing this, Fang Xuanling said loudly,""Two Turkic envoys, Mister Ruyu is no ignorant child. He is the most knowledgeable person in the Great Tang. He is the teacher of the Great Tang Emperor, the teacher of all officials, and the teacher of all people. His words are the truth! So…"
"What? Emperor Teacher!"
Ashina Wendi's eyes widened when he heard this. He looked at the others and saw that their expressions did not change.
Could this youth really be the Emperor's teacher?
"You, you're not kidding, right? A teenager..."
"Young Master!"
Lu Dongshan hurriedly stopped Ashina Wendi. At this moment, Ashina Wendi realized that all the officials were glaring at him, while the young man called the Emperor's teacher was smiling at him.
Some of the surrounding guards had already drawn their swords.
If he said a few more words, he might not even know how he died.
This shocked him greatly, and sweat immediately flowed down his face.
Jun Ruyu saw that Lu Dongshan had stopped Ashina Wende and felt a little regretful. If Ashina Wende had said a few more words, it would have been an insult to the emperor's teacher, an insult to the Great Tang's teacher.
At that time, even if he didn't want to die, he had to die.
"Emperor of the Great Tang, Ashina Wende is just a straightforward person. He did not mean to slander the Great Tang's army. I have always asked the people of the Great Tang to be broad-minded.”
Lu Dongshan bowed and said.
Li Shi Min looked at Jun Ru Yu and saw her nod slightly. He said,"The emperor's teacher is my teacher. If you slander him again, I won't let you off easily!”
Li Shi Min's eyes were like lightning, and his expression was fierce. Lu Dongshan was secretly shocked, and he didn't dare to look at Li Shi Min directly.
"Speak, why have you come to the Great Tang?”
With this ruckus, Li Shiming had gained complete control of the situation in the hall, and the arrogant Turkic envoy had unconsciously lowered his head.
Lu Dongshan and Ashina Wende looked at each other and then Lu Dongshan nodded slightly.
Ashina Wende said," I heard that the Great Tang has a Princess of Changle. She is as beautiful as a celestial being and is virtuous and virtuous. My father is looking forward to her, so I will ask the Great Tang for a marriage alliance on behalf of my father. Princess Changle, please marry into the Turks. The Turks and the Great Tang will forever establish diplomatic relations!”
Whoosh!
Hearing Ashina's gentle words, the officials were in an uproar again.
They had never imagined that the Turkic envoy would come to propose marriage.
And the person he was proposing to was Li Shi Min's most beloved princess, Princess Chang Le!
