Chapter 87 The Envoy from Goguryeo

"What do you want, kid? I advise you not to do everything to the extreme. Leave a way out for us so that we can meet again in the future! Don't think I'm afraid of you. If you really make me angry, it will not be good for us to meet in the future." Brother Niu said. He

was very scared in his heart, but he pretended to be calm on the surface. Brother Niu was a well-known figure after all.

If he really admitted it in front of so many people, how could he survive in this county town and this central county in the future.

"You think too much. There will be no day for us to meet again in the future because you are not qualified to meet me. You are not worthy." Li Chengqian said disdainfully.

He is the crown prince of the empire. How can anyone pay homage to him? Even ordinary officials cannot be seen by anyone they want.

But it was another story for everyone. Everyone despised Li Chengqian in their hearts.

They felt that Li Chengqian was too arrogant. We were all ordinary people, and no one was more noble than anyone else. It was your fault that you always acted superior.

If it weren't for the way you were dressed and your arrogant tone, everyone would have thought that you were some kind of high-ranking official.

This was everyone's voice. In everyone's eyes, Li Chengqian was a spoiled kid who didn't know how high the sky was and how deep the earth was. He really thought that he could walk away just by beating up some hooligans.

The three words "you don't deserve it" were like a slap in the face, hitting him hard.

Brother Niu was furious. After all, he was considered a big shot in this county. Everyone would be polite to him because of his name.

The boy in front of him actually dared to say that he was not qualified to meet him because he was not worthy. This was undoubtedly an insult to him.

Brother Niu could not bear it and shouted: "Boy, if I don't beat you today, even your mother won't recognize you. I will take your surname."

"You are such a low-class guy, and you are worthy of using such a noble surname like me. It's just like a toad wanting to eat swan meat. It's delusional." Li Chengqian mocked without any hesitation.

As the surname of the Tang Dynasty, only ministers who have made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty are qualified to be given the surname Li, which represents a kind of honor.

Even the children of famous families do not have this qualification, let alone Brother Niu, a little gangster.

To say that he is delusional is considered polite.

"Ah! Ah! Ah..." Brother Niu was furious. Being humiliated in the street, he had lost his mind. His eyes were red, veins on his forehead bulged, and he rushed towards Li Chengqian with his fists waving.

Although Li Chengqian was not very mobile, at least he had martial arts skills. How could a little gangster like Brother Niu be comparable to him?

"Pa" a crisp sound rang in everyone's ears, followed by a continuous slapping sound. If everyone hadn't seen it with their own eyes.

It would be easy to think of dirty pictures.

"Damn! You are really thick-skinned. You made my hand hurt." Li Chengqian shook his hands and complained while looking at Brother Niu who was lying on the ground with a swollen pig head.

Brother Niu was so angry that he fainted without catching his breath.

"Take all these people to the government and let the government punish them." Li Chengqian ordered.

"Yes!" The guards took the order.

Li Chengqian turned around and returned to the inn. He was in a good mood to go shopping, but he encountered such a disturbing thing. Now he was in no mood at all.

...

Luoyang, the Eastern Capital.

Li Er was teaching Jin Wang Li Zhi in a pavilion in the Luoyang Palace. Wu Cairen was waiting on the side. After handing the cooked tea soup to Li Er, she stood up and personally handed another bowl of tea soup to Li Zhi.

Wu Cairen took advantage of Li Er's inattention to throw a coquettish eye to Li Zhi, and stretched out her hand to gently pinch Li Zhi's palm.

Li Zhi immediately smiled and looked at Li Er. Seeing that Li Er's eyes were looking elsewhere, he reached out and touched Wu Cairen's buttocks.

If Li Chengqian were here and saw them like this, he would definitely scream in surprise, because something bad is going to happen.

Seeing that Li Er was about to withdraw his gaze from the distance, Wu Cairen and Li Zhi adjusted their clothes to avoid being discovered by Li Er. Li

Er withdrew his gaze from the distance and looked at Li Zhi who was sitting upright and said, "Did you remember what your brother said to you just now?"

"Father's teachings! I will remember them in my heart!" Li Zhi said with a bow.

"You must remember everything I said to you!" Li Er said with satisfaction.

"Yes!" Li Zhi replied.

The eunuch supervisor Wang Yuan trotted over and saluted Li Er and Li Zhi, saying, "This old slave has met you and the King of Jin."

"What's the matter?" Li Er asked.

"Everyone! The Honglu Temple Secretary and the Goguryeo envoys want to see you!" Wang Yuan said.

"Goguryeo envoys? What are they doing here?" Li Er asked.

"I heard from the Honglu Temple Secretary that the Great Molizhi of Goguryeo sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty to pay tribute to you." Wang Yuan said.

"Then summon them all to see me." Li Er said that when foreign envoys came, Li Er asked Wu Cairen to leave and the harem was not allowed to interfere in government affairs, even if they just listened.

"Yes!" Wang Yuan took the order and withdrew. After a while, he led the Honglu Temple Secretary and the Goguryeo envoys to Li Er.

"Your Majesty! I have met His Royal Highness the King of Jin!" The Honglu Temple Secretary saluted to Li Er.

"Foreign ministers are here to see His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty! I have met His Royal Highness the King of Jin!" The Goguryeo envoy saluted.

"The envoys from Goguryeo have come thousands of miles to visit the Tang Dynasty. What are they offering?" Li Er asked.

"I am offering platinum to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty on the orders of the Great Molizhi of Goguryeo." The envoy said, and nodded to his assistant who was holding a tray beside him, indicating that he should present the platinum to the emperor.

The assistant stepped forward, uncovered the cloth covering it, and placed the platinum on the tray.

Li Er nodded with satisfaction and said, "Good!"

"My Goguryeo is willing to submit to the Tang Dynasty. My Great Molizhi asked me to send his regards to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty on his behalf!"

"The Great Molizhi hopes that Goguryeo and the Tang Dynasty can live in peace. For the sake of the people of both countries, I hope that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty can stop sending troops to Goguryeo." The envoy said.

The purpose of Goguryeo's Damolizhiquan Gai Suwen sending envoys to the Tang Dynasty this time was to hope that Li Er would give up the idea of ​​sending troops to Goguryeo so that he could have time to prepare to usurp the throne.

It would be even better if he could get the support of the Tang emperor to become the new king of Goguryeo.

"I am very happy that your Great Molizhi can think about the people of both countries. I am not a warlike king. As long as your Great Molizhi can stop attacking Silla, I will not send troops to your Goguryeo." Li Er saw that Goguryeo had surrendered, so he gave up the idea of ​​sending troops to Goguryeo.

No more wars, no more deaths, and no need to consume a lot of food and grass. The national strength of the Tang Dynasty will remain the same.

Goguryeo surrendered to the Tang Dynasty again, and the eastern border will be peaceful.

It can get tribute from Goguryeo and avoid wars and deaths. Such a good thing, Li Er felt that he had no reason to refuse.
