Chapter 246 News of Songtsen Gampo Arrives Again
However……
At Wei Shuyu's command, not a single soldier dared to move.
Wei Shuyu was merely an imperial censor; he had no authority to command them.
The officials of the Court of Judicial Review immediately stood up straight!
No matter how great you are, what's the use if you can't command people?
"Ahem, that Imperial Censor Wei..."
I was just about to add something to what I just said.
Suddenly, Wei Shuyu shouted...
"Zhang Yi!"
What are you still standing there for?
"If you want your brother to be safe... then take down Murong Shun!"
"Otherwise, even your father, Zhang Liang, couldn't protect a criminal who sabotages the friendly relations between our two countries!"
Zhang Yi suddenly awoke with a start.
He immediately summoned the sons of military officers...
"If he's a brother, go! Take down Murong Shun!"
As soon as Zhang Yi finished speaking, the sons of military officers did not hesitate at all.
We've done all four of life's toughest challenges...
It's all about loyalty and brotherhood.
"You bastard!"
Murong Shun shouted loudly, gripping his knife and pointing it intently at the military officers' sons who had surrounded him.
"Anyone who takes another step forward, don't blame this prince for being merciless!"
The officials of the Court of Judicial Review were in a real bind.
It is clear that Wei Shuyu made the decision in this matter.
He immediately ran to Wei Shuyu's side.
"Imperial Censor Wei, this won't do..."
I was just about to launch into a long, scathing pep talk.
I suddenly felt a pain in the back of my head.
Before fainting, he managed to turn his head with difficulty...
Cui Shenji and Fang Yi'ai, holding bricks, spat disdainfully.
Damn it...
Despite all our precautions, we couldn't stop these two idiots.
The other two officials from the Dali Temple were terrified.
"Would you like to do it yourselves, or should I help you?"
Choi Shin-ki grinned maliciously at the two of them.
"Big...bold."
The two men pointed at the two thugs, trembling: "Attacking an official of the imperial court is a serious crime!"
Upon hearing this...
The Imperial Academy's army stepped forward in unison, glaring menacingly at the two men.
The two were so frightened their hearts raced.
These little devils really dare to make a move...
Moreover, some of them were junior officials of the Dali Temple, including the Minister and Vice Minister, so being beaten up was considered a waste of their time.
"Let's go!"
With a flick of his sleeve, he hurriedly left.
"Trash!"
Choi Shin-ki spat.
At the same time, Murong was truly anxious...
The Tang Dynasty officials have left.
His own guards were knocked down.
In this Tang Dynasty, who else can save me?
Bang.
Quickly discard your weapon.
"Hey you, you won this time..."
Murong Shun replied unwillingly, "This prince admits defeat!"
Accept your fate?
Swish.
The sons of military officers all turned their gazes toward Wei Shuyu.
Why are you all staring at me?
Wei Shuyu said indifferently, "I have no grudge against Tuyuhun!"
"You yourselves settle scores and grievances..."
"Just don't kill him!"
Holy crap.
Murong Shun was dumbfounded.
"What...what did you say?"
Murong Shun retreated tremblingly: "This prince is an envoy of Tuyuhun!"
"oh."
Wei Shuyu responded.
"This prince has come to establish diplomatic relations with the Tang Dynasty!"
Bang.
No sooner had he finished speaking than an egg flew from a distance and hit him in the face.
"This prince is a guest of the Great Tang Dynasty!"
Bang.
Another smelly boot flew in from afar.
"In war, envoys are not to be killed..."
Bang.
Another one flew in... Hmm? Why is there a bellyband?
Swish.
Everyone looked back.
Cheng Huailiang's face was completely red...
"What are you looking at? Is it wrong for me to spend the night at Wan Hua Ge last night?"
"Good brother!"
Zhang Yi roared.
Ignoring the fragrance on his pillow, Cheng Huailiang arrived wearing only his undergarment...
What is this called?
That's what you call loyalty!
"Brothers, avenge Zhang Shuai's father!"
"superior!"
"Kill Murong Shun."
That year...
Murong Shun covered his head with his hands, too afraid to fight back after being hit.
The Imperial Palace.
Li Shimin is holding a small, impromptu meeting.
There have been a lot going on lately, with trusted ministers such as Changsun Wuji, Cheng Yaojin, and Fang Xuanling all involved...
"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened!"
A secret agent rushed in.
"What is it?"
Li Shimin asked casually.
"Murong Shun was... was beaten up!" the spy said in a panic.
What?
Li Shimin was startled and stood up.
Tuyuhun had never submitted to the Tang Dynasty, so Li Shimin attached great importance to Murong Shun's visit to the capital.
"Who did this?"
Li Shimin's face was gloomy.
"Wei Shuyu, sons of military officers, and soldiers from the Imperial Academy—more than a hundred people in total..."
The spy immediately recounted what had happened...
What is that?
The dignified prince of Tuyuhun got beaten up by a bunch of kids?
"well."
Li Shimin sighed and sat back on the dragon throne: "Let them beat us then."
"His Majesty!"
Changsun Wuji stepped forward: "Murong Shun is, after all, a prince of Tuyuhun. If he is attacked in the Tang Dynasty, we can't explain it to Tuyuhun..."
Explain?
Li Shimin was stunned.
His gaze swept over the other ministers...
They stroked their beards, squinted their eyes, and looked proud.
I have given an explanation to the Tuyuhun, but how should I explain it to them?
Didn't you see how smug they were, knowing their son beat up the Tuyuhun prince?
Oh, right.
Changsun Chong wasn't involved, no wonder you're the only one filled with righteous indignation.
"My son is truly amazing..."
Cheng Yaojin exclaimed, "Either we don't fight at all, or when we do, we display the might of our Great Tang Dynasty!"
"yes."
Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "I never expected Yi'ai to have such courage. It's no wonder I've always encouraged him."
Wei Zheng chuckled and agreed, "Absolutely, absolutely."
"..."
Changsun Wuji then realized what was happening.
Most of the younger generation of civil and military officials participated, so how could Li Shimin punish them?
"Alright, let's not bother with the Ministry of Rites or the Court of Judicial Review anymore."
Li Shimin said to the spies, "Bring Murong Shun and a few of his leaders directly to the Taiji Hall..."
"promise."
The spy accepted the order and left.
Nearly half an hour passed.
Wei Shuyu and the others arrived at the Taiji Hall together.
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
The group of friends all clasped their hands in a gesture of respect.
Li Shimin's gaze swept across the room, and when he saw Murong Shun, his eye twitched involuntarily.
Not only was his face bruised and swollen...
They were carried up here, damn it.
You bunch of brats, you really went all out.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, you must do justice for me!"
Murong Shun struggled to shake off the soldiers who were helping him up, and pointed at Wei Shuyu and the others, accusing them: "They beat me for no reason."
"Prince Murong, please don't be anxious."
Li Shimin changed the subject, saying, "I see your injuries are quite serious. Let's get you fully recovered first."
"no……"
Murong Shun shook his head sadly: "His Majesty the Emperor must punish them first!"
"What did you say?"
Li Shimin's face darkened, and an aura of imperial power emanated from him.
Murong Shun was startled.
He hurriedly returned the greeting with one hand in front of his chest, saying, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. Murong Shun acted impulsively..."
Huh?
The Tang Dynasty officials looked on with puzzlement.
The Tuyuhun people refused to submit to the Tang Dynasty, which shows their rebellious nature.
Murong Shun's attitude was so humble...
Could it be that they truly have a request of our Great Tang?
"Murong Shun has come here today with important news to inform His Majesty the Tang Emperor!"
Murong Shun said obediently.
"explain!"
Li Shimin's expression grew even more stern.
The more afraid you are, the more I will shake you to your core!
“Songtsen Gampo reached an agreement with my father…”
"They're going to attack and destroy Yangtong!"
Holy crap...
I knew you were such a coward.
See how you got beaten up by a few little brats.
So it turns out you're a traitor!
