Sambuza looked shocked and asked in surprise: "Where did Zanpu's words come from?"
Songtsen Gampo was silent for a long time, and then he said in a low voice: "Now the Gar family is becoming more and more prestigious, with countless supporters. Although the great lord is very loyal, it has become powerful and everyone knows it. The so-called 'country has no state'" On the 2nd, the people have no two masters, and the Gar family is on par with my family. Isn't it a big disaster?"
He deeply felt the threat posed by the Gar family.
It is true that it was precisely because of the great help of the Gar family that he was able to unify Tubo and make Zanpu's decree unimpeded. However, today, the Gar family has developed into a behemoth, and its prestige in Tubo has grown. The height of the ship posed a threat to him at all times.
Who knew that one day, the Gar family would simply rise up and march into the palace to change the dynasty?
No matter who wins or loses, the mere occurrence of this incident will once again plunge Tubo into civil strife. The violent shock will cause the tribes that were originally bound to stand on their own feet. The plateau will be devastated by war, and the people will be in dire straits, causing the huge Tubo to collapse.
That's why he proposed that the Gar family leave Qinghai Lake, which was both a warning and an exile.
Only by keeping it away from the Tubo center can its prestige and power be gradually reduced...
Sambuza became more and more puzzled and frowned: "The Prime Minister is loyal to Zampu and has never had the slightest suspicion of overstepping. Could it be that Zampu has some misunderstanding about the Prime Minister? The Prime Minister's ambition is not to steal the throne. To unify Tubo, we just hope to bring more benefits to the Tubo people."
Lu Dongzan's reputation was unparalleled in Tubo, especially his spirit of "not loving power and serving the people wholeheartedly". He was deeply loved by the Tubo people. From the court to the countryside, who would not praise him for his "virtuous man"? Mutually"?
If it is said that Ludong Chan has a rebellious heart, Sambuza cannot believe it...
Songtsan Gampo took a bottle of highland barley wine from the bookshelf nearby, poured two cups into a tea bowl, and gave one cup to Sambuza, who quickly thanked him.
Putting the highland barley wine on the table, Songtsan Gampo picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. He clicked his tongue, pointed at the wine bottle, and said: "Just one highland barley wine has caused Tubo to be in danger of food shortage, unable to conquer the world, and tied up." They have used my hands and feet to make me unable to deal with the internal affairs of Tibet and my prestige has been greatly damaged. Do you believe it if you say that the Prime Minister is just doing it without a doubt?"
Sambuza remained silent.
He, Ludongtsan, Serugongdun, Chisangyangdun and others were called the "Four Wise Ministers" by the Tubo people. Among the four, although he was the most trusted by Songtsen Gampo, he was not the strongest and The one with the highest prestige and ability, but his wisdom and strategy are by no means inferior to the other four.
If IQ is not enough, how can I create Tubo writing so that all the people of Tubo can bathe in the grace of education and enlighten their wisdom?
Songtsen Gampo took another sip of highland barley wine and said: "The Prime Minister traveled between Chang'an and Luoche. He not only worried about the internal affairs of Tubo, but also worked hard and worked hard for Tibet's external diplomacy. I feel grateful for everyone in Tubo. Thank you for your kindness. However, this has also created an inevitable phenomenon, that is, the current monarchs and ministers of Chang'an all regard the Prime Minister as the representative of Tubo, and everything that comes from the mouth of the Prime Minister is the national policy of Tubo."
For a long time, he, the Tubo Zanpu, was not favored by the emperors and ministers of the Tang Dynasty. On the contrary, Ludong Zan had a high prestige in Chang'an.
Everyone in the Tang Dynasty knew that Lu Dongzan was the Prime Minister of Tubo. No matter what Lu Dongzan said or did, they naturally regarded it as something recognized by the whole country of Tubo.
Sambuza naturally understood the unfinished meaning of Songtsen Gampo's words, and was immediately horrified.
Normally, this would be fine, but once Lu Dongzan had selfish motives and was in the Tang Dynasty, he was at both ends... the consequences would be unimaginable.
He finally felt Songtsen Gampo's headache. He finally unified Tubo and was thinking about opening up the territory and establishing a great cause. Unexpectedly, he encountered various constraints and was fettered by internal affairs. He did not dare to let go. . Now that Lu Dongzan has some big tails, which threatens the peace within Tubo, whoever else would be anxious and annoyed, right?
Sambuza was not restrained in front of Songtsan Gampo. He drank wine casually. After a long time, he sighed softly and said: "These things are just speculations by Zangpu. The Prime Minister has unparalleled prestige. If you ask easily Responsibility, or even slight unfair treatment, will cause dissatisfaction among the government and the public, so Zamp should handle it with caution."
Although some things have not happened yet, they can be inferred based on clues. But in the final analysis, as long as something has not happened yet, you can only think about it in your heart, and you must not do anything, otherwise you will easily lose your trust and fall into passivity.
Not even a king.
It involves too much, so we should be more cautious...
Songtsen Gampo was silent, and then said: "I have given orders to order the Gar family to wait for an opportunity to seize the hometown of Tuyuhun and leave Qinghai Lake."
Sambuza was stunned for a moment, and then said loudly: "How could Zampu be like this? The prime minister has made great contributions to the country, has unparalleled prestige, and is loved by everyone in the government and the public. Regardless of whether his family is too big to lose, how can Zampu do it before he turns back? At the moment of exposure, such a method is almost banished? This move will definitely cause a backlash from the government and the public, making those nobles feel sad and share the same hatred with the enemy!"
It's simply stupid. There are countless ways to suppress the Gar family, but Zamp chose the most inappropriate one with the greatest consequences.
As a result, even if the Gar family had no intention of rebelling, they would now feel resentful and dissatisfied...
Songtsen Gampo was not annoyed by Sambuza's responsibilities. Although the political structure of Tubo was also divided into monarchs and ministers, the relationship between monarchs and ministers was more like an alliance. Zampu unified all forces together, rather than the Central Plains dynasty. "family world".
It was precisely because of this that he became increasingly wary of the growth of the Gar family.
Once the Gar family really raises a flag of rebellion to fight against him, it cannot even be said to be a "rebellion", and there will be countless tribes who are watching the wind and turning over.
There is no moral or ethical reason to condemn...
Songtsen Gampo had a stern face and said angrily: "To this day, I guess that the reason why I was rejected when I asked to marry the princess of the Tang Dynasty was not because of the so-called obstruction by the Tang Dynasty ministers, nor because the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty looked down on Tibet. The mountains are high and the water is far away, and the land is barren, but the general plan is arranged in the middle, which ruins the good things."
Sambuza looked shocked and speechless.
Zamp who married the Princess of Tang Dynasty, and Zamp who couldn't marry Princess of Tang Dynasty, are two different realms. The former can be recognized and supported by the Tang Dynasty. After all, the Tang Dynasty is the largest country in the world, and its national and military power far exceed that of Tubo. With the support of the Tang Dynasty, not only will Zanpu's position be as stable as Mount Tai, but all domestic opposition forces will be silenced. Otherwise, Zanpu can conquer at will without any scruples, and those who obey me will prosper and those who go against me will perish.
Therefore, it would make sense if Lu Dongzan suppressed his misfortune and interfered with Zan Pu’s request to marry the Princess of Tang Dynasty...
But Chang'an was thousands of miles away, and the reactions of the emperors and ministers of the Tang Dynasty all depended on one person, Lu Dongzan. Who could tell what was false and what was true?
It's not easy to interfere with Zamp's good deeds...
Sambuza had a headache. Now Zanpu had expressed his fear and suspicion to Ludongzan, forcing the Gar family to move south and leave their hometown of Tuyuhun. This move pushed the Gar family to the front line between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty, becoming a buffer between the two countries. If there was a slight disturbance, the Gar family might be annihilated by the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.
In this way, even if Lu Dongzan was loyal in the past, he will now feel hatred, and it will be difficult to restore the previous situation.
He sighed: "Now that the matter has come to this, I hope that Zanpu will put the country first, abandon his selfishness, reward the prime minister more, and stabilize his mind. Otherwise, if the oppression is too great and the prime minister feels a sense of crisis, he may not simply surrender to the Tang Dynasty. Give away the hometown of Tuyuhun..."
More than giving Qinghai Lake to Datang?
If Lu Dongzan becomes ruthless and simply serves as the "leading party" for the Tang army, assisting the Tang army in attacking the plateau, and then liaises with various tribes from there, Tibet may become the next protectorate of the Tang Dynasty...
This is by no means impossible.
Songtsen Gampo waved his hands and said, "How could I not have thought of such a step?"
As he spoke, he took a document from the desk beside him, handed it to Sambuza, and warned: "This is top secret. After reading it, please do not spread it outside."
"Here."
Seeing his solemn expression, Sambuza's heart sank. He quickly agreed, took the document and read it carefully.
Unexpectedly, when he saw it, he was immediately shocked and said in a loss of voice: "Zanpu has already negotiated with the Dashi Country to help it conquer the Western Regions?"
