Lu Dongzan began to sweat on his forehead.
Xu Fenglei is putting pressure on him! The key point is...what they said makes sense.
If you ask for a kiss, you have to come in person, right?
How can any woman take the initiative to give you a daughter? The Tang Dynasty is not a weak country, it is the boss of the surrounding countries!
But Zampu...can't leave Tubo!
"Master, please calm down, please calm down..."
Lu Dongzan's heartbeat was racing and he hurriedly explained,
"That's not what I meant... I mean, there is really no reason why Zampu can't leave Tubo!"
"There are some things you don't know... Sigh! Let me tell you straight, things are not peaceful in Tubo. If Zampu leaves, there might be someone with evil intentions who will stir up chaos!"
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty and the Grand Master..."
In order to explain, he directly showed Tubo's weaknesses to Li Shimin and Xu Fenglei!
The Tubo regime was not monolithic and the political situation was stable.
It can be said that the word stability does not exist in nomadic civilization. They do not even have a fixed place to live, so how can they expect their hearts to be stable?
Nomadic civilization is very luck-based.
If you are lucky and a generation of heroes emerges, they will naturally be able to unite and become stronger.
But if there is no hero to control the country, there will be frequent turmoil and coups, and eight khans may be replaced in five years!
Therefore, Songtsen Gampo was a treasure to Tubo, similar to the national treasure that was "not allowed to be exhibited abroad" in later generations.
On the one hand, going abroad means risks.
On the other hand, the country also needs him to control the country!
However, Xu Fenglei snorted coldly when he heard Lu Dongzan's words.
"I don't care what your reasons are, but if you can't do this with such sincerity, then what's the point of asking for a marriage? If you want to forgive me, then let's forget about this marriage! Don't mention it again!"
He responded,
"Actually, there was no enmity between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo in the past and there is no enmity these days. The relationship is quite good. There is no need to become in-laws."
"Am I right?"
Lu Dongzan; "..."
This Grand Master will not give in at all! Take another look at His Majesty Tian Khan.
Yes, His Majesty Tian Khan looks like an old god. He has obviously handed over all the power to the grand master in front of him!
If he agrees, that's it.
If you don't agree, then it won't work.
It’s hard to do...
"This... well, what the Grand Master said is true."
Lu Dongzan first responded along with Xu Fenglei's words, and then thought hard for a while before saying,
"Master, do you think this is good?"
"Let's each take a step back. I'll write a letter and ask the Prince of Tubo, Gaden Gampo, to come to Chang'an with his wedding team to welcome the princess, okay?"
"Gaden Gampo is Zampu's biological uncle. He has a nurturing grace for Zampu. He is equivalent to half of Zampu's father!"
"For such an elder to come to Chang'an to propose marriage, he should be sincere enough, right?"
Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and looked at Xu Fenglei.
If that's the case...it seems like the gesture is enough.
After all, he is not marrying his biological daughter, but rather just marrying a clan princess.
However, Xu Fenglei shook his head again.
"No, Songtsen Gampo must come in person!"
He refused to give in and said forcefully,
"Not to mention his biological uncle, even his biological father can't come!"
"He has to come in person! Didn't he also say that he admires His Majesty Tian Khan? Does he think about it day and night and want to see His Majesty Tian Khan?"
"Now there is such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but he is hesitant and refuses to come? What is the reason for this?"
"Is it possible that what you just said was false and you were deceiving our Majesty?"
Xu Fenglei stared at Lu Dongzan with an unkind expression.
Lu Dongzan was nervous and sweating profusely!
Master Xu is too tough! The momentum is getting stronger and stronger, and he can't even resist it!
"Then...of course not!"
Lu Dongzan was so nervous that he almost stuttered, and said,
"Zanpu really admires His Majesty Tian Khan very much. This is absolutely true, I can swear!"
Xu Fenglei spread his hands,
"Isn't that good? Let him come over and have a good conversation with His Majesty."
He said,
"In this way, not only can you meet the idol you admire in your heart, but you can also deepen the relationship between father-in-law and son-in-law."
"Maybe we can also talk about the exchanges and cooperation between Tibet and Datang. Why not?"
Lu Dongzan; "..."
This...his words were blocked and he couldn't say anything anymore!
"The Master is right, he is right..."
Lu Dongzan wiped the sweat from his forehead, why?
"Let me think about it, let me think about it..."
"How should I report this to Zampta?"
When Xu Fenglei heard this, he chuckled.
"Of course it's okay, just think about it carefully and don't be in a hurry."
He responded, turned to look at Li Shimin and said,
"Then Your Majesty, let's give Messenger Lu some time, shall we?"
"The envoy from Tuyuhun has been asking to see him before. Why don't you take advantage of your free time to meet him?"
Li Shimin blinked.
This Xu Fenglei, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?
He was curious in his heart, but his face was calm, he nodded and said:
"Okay, we just have a good news today, so let's summon the Tuyuhun envoy!"
"Listen, I've always been at ease with your diplomacy. I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with him later, so I'll let you negotiate with him!"
"I have no patience with Tuyuhun!"
Give Xu Fenglei a stage and let's see how he performs!
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Xu Fenglei cupped his hands and said,
"Come here, Murong Lin, the envoy of Xuantu Yuhun, comes to see you!"
After giving the order, the attendant outside the study quickly took the order and went down to summon him.
"Well……"
Lu Dongzan raised his buttocks, bent down and cupped his hands, saying,
"Your Majesty and the Grand Master are engaged in government affairs, so I will retire first."
"I will think carefully about how to tell Zanpu about the demands of His Majesty and the Grand Master when I get back. He will definitely consider it seriously."
When Xu Fenglei heard this, he waved his hand.
"Why are you resigning? Just sit down for a while. It's okay."
He smiled and said,
"It's just a meeting with the Tuyuhun envoy. It's not an important government matter."
"Please sit down for a while. Maybe you can communicate with each other later. After all, you are also neighboring countries!"
"By the way, I am quite interested in Tubo. I would like to ask you some about Tubo's customs and customs. Is it okay?"
"In terms of government affairs and diplomacy, I am a serious person, but in life, I am still very easy-going, hahaha..."
Lu Dongzan; "..."
Hearing Xu Fenglei's words, he could only sit back down with his butt that had just been raised.
"Okay, okay, of course."
He responded,
"I wonder what the Grand Master wants to hear? Ludong praised everything he knows, and he will tell you everything."
Xu Fenglei's eyes were as bright as fire and he asked with a smile:
"What is the main food you Tubo people eat?"
Ludong praised: "..."
This first question left him speechless.
From the very beginning, we were concerned about Tubo’s food. What does this mean?
"These, uh... prairie people, all eat the same thing."
Ludongzan prevaricated,
"It's nothing more than beef, mutton, cheese and barley."
Xu Fenglei raised his eyebrows.
"Yeah?"
He said cheerfully,
"I heard that Tubo is now semi-nomadic and semi-agricultural. Logically speaking, it should be a bit like me in the Tang Dynasty!"
"Why are you still acting like a nomad? Messenger Lu, you are dishonest."
Ludong praised: “@#￥%……&@#”
He smiled innocently.
At this moment, he couldn't do anything else except smile innocently.
"Okay, this may involve your Tibetan secrets, so I won't pry."
Xu Fenglei said,
"Then let's talk about home affairs!"
Lu Dongzan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
"Okay, okay...homely."
he continued.
"Then I want to know, how did you inherit the throne of Tubo?"
Xu Fenglei smiled and said,
"I'm very curious. How did Songtsen Gampo inherit the position of Zampu at such a young age?"
"And the uncle Wang you mentioned is called Garganbu, right? What's the story between them?"
"You talk about this, I like to hear it."
Lu Dongzan's face froze.
Is this homely?
This is where I come to ask Zamp about the details!
He was a little reluctant and wanted to keep Tubo mysterious in the Tang Dynasty, but at this moment Li Shimin also looked over with some curiosity.
The question just now was dealt with perfunctorily.
It would be rude to be perfunctory now.
Besides, since the two parties are going to become in-laws, it is understandable that the woman wants to know about the man's family situation.
"Okay... okay, let me think about it."
Lu Dongzan thought about it for a while and then said,
"To make this clear, we have to start with Zamp's father, and even go back further."
"I'll just say it briefly..."
…
Under the guidance of Xu Fenglei, Lu Dongzan opened his chatterbox and told a lot of information about the Tubo lineage.
As he narrated, a table of inheritance of Tubo royal power appeared in the minds of Li Shimin and Xu Fenglei.
They didn't expect that this plateau country would have such a rich heritage!
Any country with continuous inheritance cannot be underestimated!
Now, Li Shimin is paying more and more attention to this country on the plateau, no longer treating it as a small country that can be manipulated at will!
Xu Fenglei also listened with great interest and kept asking questions to Lu Dongzan.
Unknowingly, less than half an hour had passed.
Lu Dongzan's mouth became dry as he spoke, and at this moment, a clear voice came:
"Your Majesty, Murong Lin, the envoy of Tuyuhun, wishes to see you."
Hearing this sentence, Lu Dongzan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his whole mind relaxed.
finally--
He can finally take a break!
Mr. Xu is so capable of asking questions! He didn't even know how to deal with some sensitive issues! Before I can answer one question clearly, the next one comes one after another!
So much so that he was overwhelmed and his head was a little messed up!
I need to calm down, I really need to calm down.
If this continues, the secret might be leaked!
"Pour tea for Messenger Lu."
Li Shimin said,
"Call Murong Lin in!"
Da da.
The maid came forward and poured a cup of tea for Lu Dongzan.
At the same time, Murong Lin walked into the study room tremblingly and saluted Li Shimin.
"See...See His Majesty Tian Khan..."
boom!
Before Li Shimin spoke, Xu Fenglei's expression changed and he ordered:
"Bold Tuyuhun madman! Capture it for me!"
Swish!
Two guards came in, captured Murong Lin, and forced him to kneel on the ground!
Murong Lin: "!!!"
"This! Why...why!"
His mind was trembling wildly and he said in a trembling voice,
"Tai, Taishi..."
Xu Fenglei slapped the table again, stood up, looked down at Murong Lin, and said coldly:
"Why?"
"you ask me?"
"I'm still asking you!"
"Let me ask you, why is Murong Fuyun, the leader of your country, repeatedly disobeying orders and violating our borders?"
"He refused to come when asked to come, and his son refused to come when asked to come! He will continue to burn, kill, and loot at our border with the Tang Dynasty!"
"Did I give you face? Did Datang give you Tuyuhun face?!"
Murong Lin: "#￥%...&*@#!!!"
Snapped!
Xu Fenglei slapped him directly in the face.
"say!"
Murong Lin felt aggrieved. Being hit by this slap, the grievance and depression in his heart couldn't help but burst out at this moment.
"Master! I don't know, I really don't know...I can't persuade you!"
he cried,
"I really have no control over the behavior of the king and the prince! I have actually written them several letters to advise them not to cause trouble again, but they... they..."
"Woooooooo..."
He is just a broken messenger, what power does he have?
All you can do is get beaten! Can only be used as a doormat!
In fact, he was also angry with Murong Fuyun. Every time Murong Fuyun made a move against Datang, he would be held accountable, pulled out and scolded!
Now it's even more direct!
This slap really broke down his psychological defense. He couldn't hold it in any longer and cried out!
How come you have been so unlucky for eight lifetimes and become this bad messenger!
Woo woo woo...
Li Shimin saw that he was getting more and more sad as he cried, and his expression was a little bit intolerable.
"Okay, Ting Ming, why did you hit him? He is still innocent."
Li Er waved his hands and said,
"Forget it, let's talk nicely!"
"Murong Lin, I ask you, what does Murong Fuyun mean by proposing for marriage while harassing Liangzhou of the Tang Dynasty?"
"This year, four or five times, right?"
"I am patient, but patience really has its limit - this good news just arrived, look at it!"
Uh-huh!
As soon as he finished speaking, the good news was already in front of Murong Lin.
Murong Lin raised his eyes and almost peed in fear!
"Chasing for hundreds of miles, beheading seven hundred levels! This, this..."
"Is the Tang Dynasty going to war with Tuyuhun? His Majesty Tian Khan, don't, don't! Don't start a war! It's really a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding!"
Tang Jun was dispatched!
And as soon as they were dispatched, they directly killed their Tuyuhun army! Thousands of people were beheaded and seriously injured!
If the Tang Dynasty's army were to launch, wouldn't they be able to wipe out Tuyuhun in just a snap of their fingers? !
Thinking of this, Murong Lin felt like he was dying and really wanted to pee!
Bang bang bang!
Kowtow is like pounding garlic!
At this moment, he had no other choice but to beg for mercy!
However, the expressions of Xu Fenglei and Li Shimin at this moment were extremely cold.
