Chapter 204: Huihe's Ambition

"Uncle... This time we come to the Tang Dynasty. Can the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty really marry his beloved princess to his father?"

In the welcome hotel, Ye Misheng and Ye Zhengchun were talking.

Ye Zhengchun is the third son of King Huifeng at this time... and the favorite son of King Huifeng. This time, he asked his third son to come to Chang'an to let him see the world.

"I don't know either..." Ye Misheng looked at his nephew and sighed: "Actually, I don't advocate provoking the Tang Dynasty at this time. We have always been a master and servant relationship with the Tang Dynasty. Now we use horses to threaten the Tang Dynasty. Maybe the Tang Dynasty will compromise at this time, but when the Tang Dynasty has time, we are still in danger."

"But the promise that the Tang Dynasty gave us was not enough... Uncle, Xue Yantuo has been ready to move towards us. If Xue Yantuo and the Tang Dynasty unite, then our Hui Yan would definitely be captured...!"

"I know, it is precisely because of this that I didn't persist, and I led the team here..." Ye Misheng frowned slightly.

In the fourth year of Zhenguan, after the Tang Dynasty destroyed the Eastern Turks, it moved most of the Eastern Turks to the south of the Yellow River to resettle, and set up many banished prefectures, and appointed the former Eastern Turks nobles to serve as the chief of the prefecture.

Since this, the Shuopai was empty, Xue Yantuo took the opportunity to quickly expand his power, occupying most of the territory of the former Eastern Turks, and moved the Yaguan from Yu Dujun Mountain to the south of the Duluo River in the north of Duwei Jie Mountain. There were 200,000 elite soldiers, entering its heyday.

Moreover, they have close ties with the Pugu, Xi tribe and others who are active in the north. Xue Yantuo originally wanted to establish a marriage relationship with the Tang Dynasty.

In the fifteenth year of Zhenguan, after Xue Yantuo completely failed to challenge the authority of the Tang Central Committee, he sent envoys to pay tribute and requested marriage.

Regarding how to stabilize the northern border, Emperor Taizong of Tang had two plans to solicit opinions from his ministers. He said: "In history, most northern ethnic minorities were troubled by the Central Plains. Recently, Xue Yantuo's rise, we should be prepared early.

I designed two plans: one, selecting a hundred thousand troops, destroying its country, and capturing its leaders, which can ensure a hundred years of stability on our border; two, agreeing to marry and adopting custody, which is enough to ensure a thirty-year stability on the border. I wonder which plan is better?”

Prime Minister Fang Xuanling supported the second plan, and Taizong also preferred the second plan, so he agreed to marry a marriage and decided to marry a royal family girl as a new princess and marry a Yi man.

But in the end, because of trivial etiquette, Taizong broke his promise and cut off his marriage with Xue Yantuo.

In the 16th and 17th year of Zhenguan, Xue Yantuo and the Eastern Turks plundered each other. Emperor Taizong obviously favored the Eastern Turks and sent envoys to condemn the Yinan. The Yinan dared not speak out.

This also led to the fact that Xue Yantuo is gradually resistant to the Tang Dynasty. The originally peaceful scene is likely to be broken by Xue Yantuo. Hui Feng is weaker than Xue Yantuo, so Hui Feng has to make up his mind on marriage. Hui Feng people hope to marry the most noble princess of the Tang Dynasty. With this princess, it will be a shock to Xue Yantuo.

Even if Xue Yantuo gave up, Hui Feng believed that the Tang Dynasty would return to the turtle for the princess to rescue them. This was also a helpless choice for Hui Feng.

"The king...someone asked for a meeting..."

A warrior came in to report.

"Finally come..." Ye Misheng immediately stood up and said with a little anxious expression: "Please come in..."

"Who is uncle?" Ye Zhengchun asked in confusion.

"You don't need to know that he is one of my friends. Don't talk, just stay honestly..."

Ye Zhengchun still listened to his uncle's instructions very much.

After a while, Ye Zhengchun saw a man in black with a cloak walking into the room. The man was wearing black and covered his head with a cloak. This made Ye Zhengchun feel a little curious about the man.

"You are here...please sit down..."

Ye Misheng was very respectful to the visitor.

After the man in black sat down, Ye Misheng asked anxiously: "We know the news you gave us, but we still can't make sure whether His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will marry our beloved daughter Princess Jinyang to us...!"

At this time, the man in black finally spoke: "The Tang Dynasty will soon use troops to Goryeo. If it uses troops, it will definitely require war horses. The Tang Dynasty and Xueyantuo have no horse market.

Therefore, the Tang Dynasty must use your war horses that you Huifeng have. As long as you Huifeng insist on not giving up this time, even the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty cannot do anything to you.

As long as you have the marriage of Princess Jinyang, you will be blessed by the Tang Dynasty for at least fifty years after returning to the Tang Dynasty.

By the way... If His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is sick with Princess Jinyang and wants to change the princess for you, don't agree. Remember that you only ask to marry Princess Jinyang of the Tang Dynasty, and other princesses are useless."

"I know this. Princess Jinyang is His Majesty the most beloved princess of the Tang Dynasty... We will not ask for other princesses." Ye Misheng nodded firmly.

"By the way... I'm going to tell you again, besides asking for a marriage to Princess Jinyang, it's best to ask for another marriage to marry...!"

"I'd like to marry someone, or a princess?" Ye Misheng was a little surprised.

The man in black shook his head: "It's either a princess, or the daughter of an ordinary minister, named Quan Zhixi. She is the daughter of Quan Wanji, the minister of the Ministry of Personnel. This Quan Wanji is the teacher of the King of Qi of the Tang Dynasty.

Now the King of Qi of the Tang Dynasty is a man with a lot of money. You can contact him through Quan Zhixi and will also give you a lot of help...!"

After saying that, the man in black looked at Ye Zhengchun on the side and asked, "He is the third son of King Wu... let him go to propose marriage... As long as you succeed, your position will be further consolidated...!"

"Uncle..." Ye Zhengchun looked at Ye Misheng on the side.

Ye Misheng nodded and replied, "I understand... I will do what you have to ask for, and I sincerely thank you... You will be selfless in your help to us, and the people who return to us will always remember it."

After saying that, the man in black stood up and then walked out of the turtle room silently.

Ye Misheng did not go to see him off, but just watched the man in black leave.

As soon as the man in black left, Ye Zhengchun immediately asked, "Uncle, is this person the one we are hiding in the high position of the Tang Dynasty...?"

"Owner..." Ye Misheng shook his head slightly at the name: "He is not his own. At most, we can only use each other. However, this person is indeed at a high position in the Tang Dynasty... Some of the things he said are indeed beneficial to us.

Just like this time the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty wanted to use military force against Goryeo, this time is when we turn the war horse trading into the biggest profit point."

"Then what he said asked me to marry the daughter of the minister, uncle, then do I ask for it or not..."

"Please... I must ask, he doesn't need to lie to us. He said that asking for marriage to that woman will be good for you. Anyway, we have already asked for it again, so we don't mind having another one."

"Okay...I'll listen to my uncle..." Ye Zhengchun nodded slightly.

"Well...!" Ye Misheng looked at the dark night outside the window and said, "I hope everything goes well for us!"
