After a long while, Empress Zhangsun opened the door and looked at Li Er, who was kneeling on one knee at the door with a sincere apology, with tears in her eyes.
"Emperor, quickly get up. It's all this concubine's fault for making the emperor worry.”Empress Zhangsun hurriedly helped Li Er up. Li Er's face was full of guilt." If it weren't for Green Sparrow's reminder, I would have made a big mistake. Please forgive me on account of our past relationship as husband!"”
" What are you talking about, Your Majesty? It's just a child bickering in a fit of pique…" Empress Zhangsun chuckled when she saw the green sparrow winking at her.'You stupid child, it's rare that you still remember to speak up for your mother at such a critical moment!'
However, why would Erlang listen to the green sparrow?
" Of course…" The green sparrow chuckled." I'm Father's debt holder. If he dares to bully Mother again and make Mother angry, I'll make Father pay back the money!”
When there was no one around, Empress Zhangsun asked Li Tai. Li Tai laughed and threatened with his small hands.
"Green Sparrow, have you ever thought about what would happen if your Imperial Father went back on his word?”Empress Zhangsun asked with a smile as she hugged him and kissed his little face.
"It's fine. The harem will belong to Mother and Green Sparrow!”The little fellow giggled, making Empress Zhangsun laugh as well.
This naughty child!
" But your father is angry and hasn't returned for two days…" Empress Zhangsun hugged her son, a hint of resentment flashing in her eyes.
"Green Sparrow, go and get him to pay up now!”Li Tai broke free from his mother's embrace and ran out of the house. He jogged all the way to Taiji Palace.
Empress Zhangsun stood at the door, looking at the little figure that was leaving and sighed.
I heard that the Turkic envoy Ashnaherr has arrived.
In Taiji Palace, a burly Hu with loose hair and a lapel was arguing fiercely in his stiff Mandarin.
"Your Majesty Heavenly Khagan, the Turks and the Great Tang have been at peace for many years, and will continue to be at peace, but the precondition for this peace is that you must withdraw your troops from Mayi and other places. Otherwise, it will be an offense to the dignity of our Turks!”
Li Shiming sat on the dragon throne, listening to Ashina's arrogant words. His fingers clenched tightly on the armrest.
"If the Great Tang still had thirty thousand soldiers stationed in Mayi and Yunzhong this autumn, I cannot guarantee that the Turkic wolf cavalry would not have set foot in the Central Plains and signed a peace treaty with His Majesty!”
He stomped his foot, causing the hall to buzz. The generals were so angry that their faces turned red and their necks turned thick. They glared at Ashina Herr fiercely, wishing they could kill him with their gazes!
"It seems that your country no longer wishes to maintain peace with our Great Tang!”Finally, Li Shi Min spoke.
"The Central Plains has a colorful world. We prairie people are very envious!”Ashnaherr provoked him without hiding it.
"Do you think that you can come and go as you please in the Central Plains?”
A childish voice suddenly came from outside the hall. Everyone turned their heads and saw a child who was less than three feet tall. He was wearing a lake blue shirt with half sleeves and carrying a small purple backpack on his back. He looked to be about four years old.
"Whose doll is this?" Ashina curled his lips in disdain." I didn't expect the imperial court of the Central Plains to be so lax and allow a child to sneak in!”
"Green Sparrow, this is an important place in the royal court. You can't mess around! Hurry up and retreat!" Li Shi Min looked at his precious son and quickly waved his hand, signaling the eunuchs to carry him away.
"The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of every man. Although I am young, I am still a citizen of the Great Tang, so why can't I enter the royal court and offer advice?”Li Tai put his hands behind his back and swaggered in. He stood in front of Ashnaherr, raised his head, and snorted disdainfully.
This child was not ordinary!
Ashnaherr was startled. He hadn't expected a four-year-old child of the Great Tang to say something like,'Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world'!
"What a good phrase,'Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world'!”Li Er had never heard anyone say such impassioned words before. He patted the armrest heavily and praised!
Ashina and Green Sparrow stared at each other for a full 15 minutes. Ashina did not see any fear in his eyes. Instead, he felt a little uncertain!
The Sophist's skill was activated!
Li Tai snorted, breaking the silence between the two.
"Your esteemed envoy is so ugly, yet he was sent to our Great Tang. Could it be that your country doesn't take our Great Tang seriously and specially sent an ugly monster to humiliate us? Or is it that your country is filled with ugly and hideous people, and you really can't find a man more handsome than the Emissary?”
The first move of the Sophist, Personal Attack!
With one sentence, all the civil and military officials burst into laughter. Li Er could not help but laugh. The green sparrow's angle was really tricky!
" I..." Ashnaherr was stunned. He didn't expect a four-year-old child to speak so flawlessly!
If I admit that I'm ugly, then I'm clearly humiliating the Great Tang, and if I don't admit it, then it means that everyone in my Turkic kingdom is ugly, and not a single one of them looks like a human!
This was like catching a donkey at both ends of the alley!
"We Turks have always dominated the world with valor and never cared about ugly looks!”
Ashina Herr was in a hurry. He waved his hand heroically. We don't care about ugliness or beauty!
"So you admit that you're ugly?”The green sparrow immediately caught the point that he was avoiding and activated Soul Critical Strike!
"That's right. Is it my fault that I'm ugly? Only you are good-looking! Humph!" Ashina was furious!
"Although I'm young, I've heard that during the Sui Dynasty, the Turks were beaten to a pulp by us Central Plainsmen and had no choice but to flee to the Immensity Sea to seek refuge. Is that true?”
The second style of the master of sophistry was to dig up old scores!
"So what if there is? Times have changed!”Ashina Herr recalled the time when he was defeated by Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty. His face was a little flustered, but he couldn't lose the momentum in his mouth!
"Does that mean that your country already has the strength to wage war against our Great Tang?”
The third style of the Master of Sophist, Intentional Induction, Interfering Judgment!
"No, absolutely not! I have come to the Central Plains this time because I hope that your country can withdraw the 100,000 troops stationed in Yunzhong and Mayi to maintain peace between the two sides!”
"Then how can the Emissary guarantee that you won't launch a sneak attack after my Tang army leaves?”
[The fourth move of the Master of Sophist: Attack the enemy's loopholes, pursue the victory, and create an established fact!]
"I swear in the name of Longevity Heaven…"
"We Central Plainsmen don't know Longevity Heaven. We only know the words on paper!”Li Tai waved his hand." If you are sincere, sign an alliance agreement with the Tang Empire, stating that you will not take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack on the territory of the Tang Empire. Both sides will maintain peace forever!”
"Do you dare?" Li Tai stood on the chair, facing Ashnaherr as he asked.
"Why wouldn't I dare!" Ashina roared in anger!
Then, he immediately regretted it. Oh no, he was careless and was actually brought into the ditch by this four-year-old child!
But…
What else could he do? The men of the grasslands had always valued promises the most. One could not take back what they had said!
"Emissary, please!" Wang Hongzhi handed over a piece of paper. Ashina signed his name with a livid face. He glared at the green sparrow angrily and left with a flick of his sleeves.
"Ding! Congratulations to host for successfully interfering with the judgment of the Turkic envoy Ashnaherr and forcing him to sign a contract that is extremely disadvantageous to our side. Demon index: 5 stars , Epic achievement: Rewards for subduing the enemy without a fight are Rapid Growth Potions…"
"Hahaha!" Violent laughter broke out in the court. Li Er was so happy that he slapped the armrest." My son did well! The Turks had suffered a great loss this time!”
