There was jubilation in Chang''an city.
But above the court hall, it is another scene.
It was a day of national celebration to welcome the returning soldiers, but something unexpected happened.
Yesterday evening.
The Tubo Prince visited the five envoys of the Tang Dynasty to visit the Tubo businessmen doing business in Chang''an imperial city.
But unexpectedly, he met the assassination of more than a dozen masked killers.
Masked killers are well-trained and highly skilled.
When the Tubo prince was on his way back, he went to a more remote place and attacked the killer.
Concealed weapons from different angles were sacrificed one after another and went straight to the Tubo Prince alone.
Fortunately, among the accompanying envoys, they all had some martial arts skills and knocked out most of the concealed weapons.
But the Tubo Prince''s left arm was stabbed and tore open an inch long wound.
Although it was a split skin, but fortunately it didn''t hit the key, it didn''t matter.
The assassins were particularly alert, missed and did not entangle, and immediately flew into the darkness.
The news came into the palace at nightfall.
The Tubo mission was assassinated in Datang.
As soon as the news came out, the royal family was shocked!
The assassination was also mentioned in the early court meeting.
The ministers looked dignified and spoke one after another about the murderer''s guess.
They have also come up with ideas to minimize the impact of this situation.
Just then, the Tubo Prince led three Tubo envoys across the main hall square and walked towards the main hall.
A group of officials turned their heads to wait and see.
A bad premonition rose in the hearts of the ministers.
The Tubo prince, with a conspicuous gauze band tied on his left shoulder and a sullen face, strode to the palace.
The Tubo delegation bowed slightly, and then the Tubo Prince walked out of the crowd with a cold face, flashing light in his eyes and looking at the king of the Tang Dynasty.
"People all say that Chang''an in the Tang Dynasty is a place for singing and dancing, living and working in peace and contentment."
"But somehow, our messengers came with a pious heart, but this came to an end."
This sharp contrast, coupled with the opening of the Tubo Prince''s questioning, immediately made the king of Tang unhappy.
The king of Tang Dynasty''s face sank and looked at the Tubo people on the field.
"I have heard a little about the assassination."
"Suddenly, when Jin Wuwei arrived at the scene, the killer had disappeared."
"The Tubo envoy was on the spot. What clues can I get?"
The Tubo Prince pointed to the bloody gauze on his arm and stood proudly on the spot, saying.
"The ribbon on my arm is the clue."
"The hard evidence of the assassination is here."
"At the foot of the emperor, is Datang such a riot?"
"How can the envoys from all over the world visit Tang at ease?"
The assassination is a big matter. If it involves the establishment of diplomatic relations with neighboring countries, it is a top priority.
The king of Tang stared at the Tubo prince, narrowed his eyes slightly, flashed a fierce look in his eyes, and said positively.
"This happened in Datang. Datang is to blame. I will never sit idly by."
After that, the dignified voice of the king of Tang sounded in the Tai Chi hall.
"Come on! Turn this matter over to Dali temple for thorough investigation."
The Tubo prince, with a faint smile on his face, looked at the king of Tang sitting high in the hall and said slowly.
"If this is an unsolved case with no clue, how should Datang give justice to our Tubo mission?"
"In broad daylight, at the foot of the son of heaven, there is such a rampant move. Is this the title of the state of etiquette of the Tang Dynasty?"
……
On the bustling Chang''an Street, Tang Hao led the crowd to walk slowly on Zhuque Avenue.
Surrounded by the crowd, a two foot high bamboo pole stood upright on the street, looking particularly abrupt. A white paper scroll on the bamboo pole danced in the wind.
The white paper floats like a white flag at the time of defeat, which is incompatible with this festivity.
Tang Hao glimpsed a line of writing on the white paper, flipping in the wind and waving his teeth and claws.
Couplets?
The two words flashed through my mind.
Tang Hao suddenly remembered that Li Junxian had said that the Tubo Prince humiliated the literati of the Tang Dynasty.
Suddenly raised his right hand, and the slow army gradually stopped.
Tang Hao frowned slightly, glanced at the bamboo pole, turned his head and offered it to Li Jun.
"This is the couplet?"
Li Junxian looked up and saw that the white paper scroll was still standing on the street of Chang''an. His face was green and white. He shouted to the people of jinwuwei on the street.
"Didn''t you take off this couplet? Why is it hanging here now?"
"Go! Remove the bamboo pole."
After that, the two Jin Wuwei quickly moved and ran towards the bamboo pole.
Tang Hao held the reins tightly and said in a deep voice.
"Wait a minute!"
"Just remove the couplet."
Li Jun Xian''s face was slightly embarrassed. His face turned red and bowed his hands.
"General Tang, it''s disappointing for you, really..."
Tang Hao waved his hand and said faintly.
"No harm!"
"I''d like to see how the barbarians dare to teach others in front of my great Tang Dynasty!"
Before long, there was a Jin Wuwei in front of Tang Hao.
Tang Hao took the scroll, opened it, glanced at it, snorted coldly and said.
"Curfews, how dare you show your talent in Datang!"
Then he rolled up the couplet and waved it with a big hand.
"Into the palace, face saint!"
Seeing Tang Hao''s confidence, the people of the Tang Dynasty cheered.
"The son of Tang county is powerful!"
"Don''t inflate the aspirations of others and destroy your own prestige!"
"Denounce Tubo and restore the reputation of the talent of the Tang Dynasty!"
The waves sounded again, accompanied by thunderous applause, surrounded the returning soldiers and soldiers, and slowly left for the palace.
