The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

"His Majesty the Emperor wants me to recommend Zhao Chen to be responsible for the reception of the Tibetan mission?"

In the imperial study room, Cheng Yaojin looked at Li Shimin with some surprise.

He couldn't understand why His Majesty the Emperor would think of letting a young boy, Zhao Chen, do this.

Every time the Tibetan delegation came to Datang, they came with careful thoughts.

Nowadays, Tubo is to the west of the Tang Dynasty and its strength is pretty good.

Zhao Chen is just a young man. If he offends the Tibetan mission, wouldn't it be a big deal?

Cheng Yaojin didn't want Zhao Chen to wade into this muddy water.

"I will ask the Ministry of Rites to send someone to follow. Nothing big will happen." Li Shimin said calmly.

"But Your Majesty..."

"The Tibetan envoys have impure minds. Every time they come to our country, they want to get information. Ordinary people would definitely not dare to argue with them."

"But Zhao Chen is different. This kid is so bold. Even I am often scolded by him."

"It couldn't be better for him to be responsible for contacting the Tibetan envoys!" Li Shimin comforted Cheng Yaojin again.

Cheng Yaojin trusted Li Shimin.

Otherwise, I would not have told him that Zhao Chen was the master before.

"Did Zhao Chen agree?" Cheng Yaojin asked.

"Well, he agreed!" Li Shimin nodded.

…

The next morning, in Tai Chi Hall.

"Your Majesty, the Tibetan envoys will arrive in Chang'an City in a few days, and it seems that the official responsible for receiving them has not been finalized yet!" Fang Xuanling and Li Shimin said.

In fact, most of the reception officials have made arrangements.

It's just that the person in charge of this matter has not been finalized yet.

Fang Xuanling had his own ideas. He wanted his son Fang Yiai to do this.

"Father, I think that Fang Yiai is humble, courteous and smart enough to take charge of this matter!" Prince Li Chengqian took a step forward and said to Li Shimin.

Fang Yiai is his, so naturally he has to arrange such a good thing for himself

people.

"Your Majesty, I also think that Fang Yiai can take on this responsibility!" Changsun Wuji also nodded.

His Highness the Crown Prince has been feeling a little pitiful lately, and even Changsun Wuji has felt it.

Du He was captured by the emperor, and there is still no news about it.

I don’t know whether I’m dead or alive.

Without Du He, Li Chengqian seemed to have lost an arm.

If he doesn't fight for it at this time, it will be really difficult for Li Chengqian to handle it!

"Fang Yiai? Let him be the deputy envoy. As for the position of the envoy...do you ministers have better candidates?" Li Shimin continued to ask.

Li Shimin's decisive arrangement caught all the ministers off guard.

Li Chengqian also opened his mouth several times, but he was so full that he couldn't say a word!

"Your Majesty, I have a person who can take up this position!" Cheng Yaojin came out and said to Li Shimin.

"Oh? Who does Aiqing recommend?" Li Shimin pretended to be surprised and said with a smile.

Wei Zheng stood aside and frowned slightly when he saw that these two people seemed a little strange.

"I recommend Zhao Chen, a common man from Chang'an City!" Cheng Yaojin said respectfully.

"Zhao Chen?"

"Who is Zhao Chen?"

"Why have I never heard of this name?"

"Where did the Zhao Chen recommended by General Cheng come from?"

"How can a small citizen from the city of Chang'an represent me, the Tang Dynasty courtiers, to meet with the Tibetan envoy?"

"Common people have never seen the world. If something goes wrong, wouldn't foreigners laugh at me that there is no one in the Tang Dynasty?"

As soon as Cheng Chumo finished speaking, the courtiers in the hall were completely excited.

At first they were just questioning who Zhao Chen was.

Later it was

Directly oppose Cheng Yaojin’s suggestion!

Isn't it a joke to let a common man be the envoy responsible for receiving the Tibetan delegation?

"Your Majesty, think again. Above the imperial court, there are many civil and military officials in the dynasty. Who can't be this envoy? Who is this Zhao Chen? Is it possible that he is more powerful than all the ministers in my court?"

"Your Majesty, this Zhao Chen is just a young man, I don't think it's appropriate!" Wei Zheng took a step forward and said to Li Shimin.

Even though he saw Zhao Chen, he was surprised by Zhao Chen's ability.

But this does not mean that Zhao Chen has the ability to compete with foreign missions.

If something really went wrong, it would be too late for them to regret it.

"Young man, a young man?"

"Cheng Yaojin, what's your intention to recommend a young man to take on such a big responsibility? Do you think that our ministers are not as good as that yellow-mouthed boy?"

"Your Majesty, Cheng Yaojin has bad intentions, and I request that he be taken down and investigated!"

As soon as Wei Zheng spoke, other opponents spoke out.

Changsun Wuji looked at Cheng Yaojin in surprise, but didn't say a word.

Fang Xuanling next to him wanted to speak, but was also held back by Changsun Wuji.

Changsun Wuji knew about Zhao Chen and already understood in his heart that Cheng Yaojin's so-called recommendation was actually the intention of His Majesty the Emperor himself.

To object at this time would be to refute the emperor's face.

The gain outweighs the loss!

"Your Majesty, General Cheng recommended this person, but what is his special talent?" Changsun Wuji took a step forward.

"The method of cultivating the Suzaku Avenue was taught to me by Zhao Chen!" Li Shimin said lightly.

"What? The method of cultivating the Suzaku Avenue was actually taught to Your Majesty by this young man named Zhao Chen?"

"The treasury did not spend a penny, so those businessmen readily agreed."

"Now the northwest corner of Zhuque Avenue is under renovation!"

\u003c

br\u003e “I never expected that such a method would be thought up by a young man. I always thought that this was the idea of ​​some old guy.”

"But even so, wouldn't it be too childish for this young man to represent the Tang Dynasty and receive envoys from Tibet?"

All the ministers spoke one after another, and their words contained both surprise and doubt about Zhao Chen.

It was hard for them to believe that how could a young man who grew up in the marketplace be able to compete with those foreigners?

"Don't take those foreign tribes too seriously. If I didn't want to use weapons, how could Tubo have been entrenched in the west for so long?"

"It's just a diplomatic mission. I've given them enough face by letting them receive them. Is it possible that I have to go and receive them myself?" Li Shimin said coldly, with a somewhat evil look in his eyes.

All the ministers did not dare to speak anymore, knowing that His Majesty the Emperor had already made this decision long ago.

Cheng Yaojin and the emperor were just acting.

…

"Fang Yiai, the Zhao Chen that my father mentioned today is the person Du He went to find the day before yesterday!"

"It seems that Zhao Chen belongs to my father, so he cannot be used by me!"

In the East Palace, Li Chengqian, who originally planned to find Zhao Chen in person after retreating from the court, completely gave up this idea at this moment.

He also understood that Zhao Chen belonged to the emperor.

That's why Du He was caught by Cheng Yaojin.

As for whether Zhao Chen is the master the emperor calls him, Li Chengqian no longer cares.

Since you can't use it for yourself, what will happen if you just watch his jokes?

"Then Your Highness, what should I do this time?" Fang Yiai asked.

"Then Zhao Chen is just a common man. He doesn't think he has much ability. Find an opportunity to stumble him and let him know the consequences of offending me!" Li Chengqian waved his hand and said.

"Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Fang Yiai responded.
