Not all the envoys were drunk, and some were very sober. For example, Lu Dongzan, although he was also amazed by the fine wine of burning knives, he resisted the temptation and stopped trying it out.

He turned around and looked at Su Cheng, but found that Su Cheng was also looking at them, with a smile on his face. For some reason, he suddenly felt a chill when he looked at the danger at the corner of Su Cheng's mouth, and his eyes seemed to be looking at prey.

Since he came to Chang'an, he has heard too many stories about Su Cheng. He knows that Su Cheng is amazingly talented, and has even made many secret recipes, each of which is priceless.

However, although Su Cheng, who made so many great achievements, seemed glorious, he was walking on thin ice. Perhaps it was because of his violent beating of the prince that caused dissatisfaction between the emperor and the emperor.

Today's Sifang Pavilion is full of the smell of wine. Although Sifang Pavilion also cares about food, food, wine and drinks, it does not provide delicious wine for roasting knives.

Because the wine of a stolen knife is too expensive and it is not easy to buy.

So it was the first time these envoys had drunk the wine of the sautum.

After all, the envoys who were able to enter the palace for banquets were a small number, and most of the followers stayed in the Sifang Pavilion. At this time, they were all shocked when they saw the official and deputy envoys who entered the palace returned.

Logically speaking, when you enter the palace to attend the emperor's banquet, you always have to take into account some facial etiquette. How could you get drunk?

"Hurry up, go buy wine! Buy Shaodaozi wine! This is the best wine in the world! It is strong and mellow, compared with Shaodaozi wine, our horse milk wine is horse urine!"

"Hurry, go buy wine!"

This is how the entire Sifang Pavilion shouted.

Lu Dongzan looked at the drunken deputy envoy and was speechless, but he could not helpless, because the deputy envoy was Zanpu's uncle. Although he was a prime minister and a regular envoy, he could not strictly order the deputy envoy.

"Hurry, go buy wine, I still have to drink it! I also want to drink the best wine in the world!" Although the deputy envoy was drunk, he still remembered the best wine in the world.

Lu Dongzan waved helplessly: "Go, go, go, go buy a bar!"

After giving the order, Lu Dongzan returned to the room alone and thought carefully about what happened tonight, especially the artillery. Although he pointed out the defects of the artillery, he was still shocked.

In a short period of time, artillery did not pose any threat to them, but he had to consider what if the Tang Dynasty really made improvements to artillery successfully?

Su Cheng! The key lies in Su Cheng!

Although Su Cheng made great contributions many times, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty treated him very poorly, and the ministers of the Tang Dynasty were very excluded from Su Cheng.

No, it cannot be described as extortion. It is like trying to kill him quickly!

Maybe this is his chance!

What could Su Cheng get in the Tang Dynasty?

Wealth? They can also give it to Tubo!

Princess? They are not short of princesses, and they are not as stingy as the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

But what is the most important thing for men?

Power!

A real man cannot be without power for a day when he establishes himself in the world!

And this is precisely what the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty did not give to Su Cheng!

In the palace, Ganlu Palace, Li Shimin walked in with great strides.

Empress Changsun said in surprise: "Why is Your Majesty back so soon?"

Li Shimin said laughing and crying: "Don't mention it, all the envoys from all countries were drunk and full of ugly things. My banquet had to end early."

Empress Changsun was even more surprised when she heard this. How could any minister dare to drink the emperor's banquet? Even envoys from various countries could not get drunk on such occasions!

Seeing Empress Changsun’s surprised look, Li Shimin couldn’t help but smile and explained with a wry smile: “Isn’t it all Su Cheng’s burning knife caused by the burning knife? Where have the envoys from various countries ever drunk such strong and mellow wine? They couldn’t help but have a little greedy cup, and the burning knife has such a strong momentum, and they were all knocked down unknowingly!”

"It is said that people in a bitter and cold place are particularly good wine, and it turns out to be so!" Empress Changsun couldn't help laughing: "When I think about it, Su Cheng's knife-burning wine is actually more powerful than cannons, and he actually knocked down the envoys from various countries directly!"

Li Shimin laughed and said, "That's true!"

Speaking of cannons, Empress Changsun couldn't help but blush and said angrily: "Your Majesty is really it. I saw cannons today. How could I look like what your Majesty said? It doesn't look like it at all? How could Your Majesty look like it..."

"It's still a little bit like it. It's all because of the old man Cheng Yaojin who shouted out and then spread it!" Li Shimin hurriedly cleared his relationship.

"Today the cannon shocked the envoys of various countries, and the Western Regions are now completely safe!" Li Shimin said happily.

Empress Changsun frowned slightly and said, "But I see that Tubo is quite ambitious, but I am still a little unruly!"

Li Shimin said seriously: "Tubo is indeed my biggest concern. I have always focused on the Western Regions before and have not paid much attention to Tubo. However, although Hou Junji led his army to the expedition this time, he also tested the strength of Tubo."

"Tubo's strength is far beyond my imagination. I have a pharmacist. They all underestimated Tubo. The Tubo country has wise monarchs and wise ministers, and it is easy to defend but difficult to attack on the plateau. It is far more trouble for me than the Turks!"

"I can send a large army to sweep the desert, but it is difficult to send a large army to expedition the plateau. Even the powerful cannons have extremely limited shock to Tubo."

Empress Changsun comforted: "The mountains of Sichuan and Sichuan are both pros and cons for Tubo. They will never be able to plot against the Central Plains. Your Majesty can deal with it calmly."

Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "But I will never give up the land of Sichuan and Sichuan. He dared to send troops to Tubo. I will send a large army to conquer it. The fierce generals and soldiers under my command will definitely drive them back to the plateau!"

"But, why did I sweep the desert and manage the Western Regions hard for? Is it just for the name of Tian Khan? Because I still have a dream in my heart!"

In the end, Li Shimin had a kind of yearning and a kind of decisive smell.

Empress Changsun was silent with her lips pursed. She knew what the dream that the emperor had always hidden deep in her heart.

The sword aims at Liaodong!

In recent years, the emperor worked hard to manage the Western Regions, on the one hand, which was a strategic need of the court, but on the other hand, it was also to eliminate constraints and prepare for the expedition to Liaodong?

However, he did not expect that the emperor settled the Western Regions and then jumped out of Tubo. However, Tubo was located on the plateau and was easy to defend but difficult to attack. It was difficult for the court to send troops to conquer Tubo like conquering the grassland and desert.

In fact, Empress Changsun's original intention did not support the emperor's conquest of Liaodong. She was a lesson from the previous Sui Dynasty, but she knew how deep the emperor's obsession was, so she could not persuade him at all.

Empress Changsun held Li Shimin's hand and smiled gently, "No matter what Your Majesty does, I support Your Majesty. But I ask Your Majesty not to be too hasty. Your Majesty is in full swing in the Spring and Autumn Period and the national strength of the Tang Dynasty is booming. Why should Your Majesty be anxious for a while?"
