King Anxin, who was reminded by Li Linhuai, would not be angry at all.
As Yu Wenrong presented Dalangya's peace agreement, half of the courtiers and censors came out to join him and the ten princesses. Such a big battle bullied a little girl who had made great contributions to the capture of Shibao City. King Anxin laughed angrily.
He couldn't help but step forward: "I went out to conquer the Tibetan generals and fought with their lives to capture Shibao City. Master Yuwen, for his own selfish reasons, performed this scene when the generals who had made military achievements returned to the court. Isn’t this drama ridiculous? Doesn’t it chill our frontier soldiers?”
"Dalanya is a Tibetan man. He said that the king and the princess let him go. You all believed him one by one, but did you listen to your own words? Or are the Tubo people just saying wise words, and your own people have no chance to explain? Give?"
King Anxin's words are indeed sharp.
A word that hits the mark!
The courtiers who had been bewitched by Yu Wenrong and shouted endlessly also began to reflect and feel ashamed.
Yu Wenrong did not expect that the calm King Anxin would contradict him directly.
After all, as a prince and a commander with military exploits, His Majesty will definitely be wary of such military exploits, so he must be cautious in his words and deeds.
Yu Wenrong's face was dull and he reported to Xuanzong: "King Anxin misunderstood what I meant. I was ordered by His Majesty to receive Dalang Ya from Tubo. He felt the majesty of our army and the favor of King Anxin and Princess and voluntarily submitted a letter of surrender. I just want to take advantage of the opportunity for the army to return to the court to present the letter of surrender, so that I will be overjoyed."
"What a happy occasion!"
King Anxin ridiculed: "Is it just to add joy to happiness? Or is it for selfishness? The emperor and all the courtiers are not fools. I hope Lord Yuwen will not be smart and play such a stinky trick of excluding dissidents."
With Li Linhuai's reminder, King Anxin believed that the little girl would make preparations in advance. However, there was already a dispute in the court and the girl had not yet appeared.
Seeing Yu Wenrong's unfazed look, King Anxin thought something must have gone wrong.
Passing by Zhuque Street today, the girl clearly threw flowers to Li Linhuai. What if there were obstacles on the way to the court?
Blessing to the soul!
It was really shameful for King Anxin to reconcile Li Kailuo's reminder with this matter.
It turns out that Yu Wenrong and Dalanya secretly joined forces to pull off such a trick?
When he was in Stone Castle City, the little girl proposed using Dalanya as bait. He had already thought of today's situation. After being reminded by Li Kailuo, he even thought that the little girl should not be affected by this matter.
Because he did give up a Dalangya, allowing the army to completely suppress Tubo.
For the sake of the sacrificed generals, and for the sake of the frontier people no longer being burned, killed, and plundered by Tubo, if he had to do it all over again, he would still do it after weighing the pros and cons.
After all, how could personal honor and disgrace be more important than saving the generals of the Tang Dynasty from suffering casualties and saving the people on the border from burning, killing, and looting?
Thinking of fighting for this military exploit to protect that little girl, I didn't hesitate to meet him and be pestered by him at the frontier, calling him "Uncle Wang."
Now that you’ve broken your skin, you might as well just ignore it!
"Your Majesty, I and the generals who returned to the capital from this expedition heard that the rumor that I and the princess had collaborated with the enemy and let Dalangya go was already spreading in the capital."
"I would like to ask how the news about the frontier fortress in the army spread all over the capital?"
"If I am really suspected of collaborating with the enemy, how can I capture Shibao City and expand the territory thousands of miles away? Is it possible that Tubo is a fool, and is willing to give up the land of thousands of miles from Shibao City to Tubo just to please the minister? Such a ridiculous statement is really true. It’s ridiculous, and it chills my heart!”
King Anxin looked at Yu Wenrong sarcastically: "If some people are worried that if I have outstanding military achievements, I will be reused by the emperor and return to the capital to serve, and his power will be divided, there is no need!"
"I have received the kindness of the late Emperor and His Majesty, and I have the blood of the Li Tang royal family in my body. It is my duty to guard the border. I am also willing to guard the border forever in exchange for the peace and tranquility of the people in the border fortress."
"This is my wish, and I believe it is also the wish of every son of the Tang Dynasty who fights for his hometown and relatives. Since I have expressed my willingness to guard the border forever, let me clarify the rumors about letting Dalang Ya go."
"Dalangya was not let go by the minister as the rumors in the capital say. Instead, in order to capture the Tibetan commander and severely defeat the Tibetan army, the minister used Dalangya as bait to make the Tibetan commander think that the king would be here. Escort Dalang Ya on his way back to Taozhou."
King Anxin clarified in an organized manner: "I guessed that for Tubo, what they wanted most was not to rescue Dalangya, but to counterattack and take back Shibao City. Therefore, I released Dalangya as a bait, but deployed all my troops." Around the canyon that Tubo must pass through when marching to Shibao City, it is precisely because of this king's layout that he severely damaged the Tubo army. After Li Linhuai beheaded the Tibetan commander, the Tubo army was leaderless, thus laying the foundation for the subsequent expansion of thousands of miles. Base."
"The decision to use Dalanya as bait was made by me alone. What does it have to do with the princess practicing medicine with the army?"
King Anxin said frankly: "It is true that the troops that I deployed in Tubo at that time could only focus on dealing with the Tibetan army. Therefore, I ignored the bait of Dalangya and let him be secretly rescued by Tubo's masters. This is my fault. If the court wants to punish you for this matter, it has nothing to do with the princess who is practicing medicine with the army. I dare to do what I dare to do, and I am willing to bear the responsibility alone."
King Anxin was so responsible and clarified that the courtiers who had previously participated in the performance of him and Li Sixu fell silent.
There was silence in the court!
Yu Wenrong felt that something was wrong when he was so disrespectful and used his military exploits to leave the princess alone.
He cleared his throat and pressed forward step by step: "So, King Anxin has admitted that it was your fault that he let Dalang Ya go by mistake."
"yes!"
Under the gaze of the courtiers and generals who returned to the court, King Anxin said frankly: "I have clarified that there is no suspicion of collaborating with the enemy. It was due to poor layout that Dalangya was rescued by the Tubo people. If it had not been because of Dalangya's incident, I am willing to take full responsibility for the responsibility."
A princess was left out, but King Anxin immediately accepted the responsibility, and Yu Wenrong also thought it was an unexpected surprise.
If King Anxin takes responsibility, it means losing the opportunity to return to the court and enter Zhongshu Province.
Yu Wenrong suppressed the joy in his heart: "Your Majesty has always been wise, meritorious service should be rewarded and guilty should be punished. Although the prince made an unintentional mistake, he let such an important prisoner go..."
Yu Wenrong was still going to pursue the victory. The young eunuch on duty hurried into the hall and reported: "Your Majesty, the ten princesses want to see you!"
Xuanzong, who had remained calm all this time, nodded towards the young eunuch.
Then Li Sixu followed the little eunuch who led the way, stepped into the court step by step, and knelt in the center of the hall, prostrate on the ground.
"My son is guilty and has come to receive his punishment!"
