"I, Xu Yuan, the governor of Dunhuang, have met His Highness the Crown Prince."
This time the governor of Dunhuang came in, changing his usual timid appearance, and cautiously paid homage to Li Chengqian in front of Li Chengqian.
When Li Chengqian looked at Xu Yuan, who finally looked like a governor, a smile appeared on the face of this Dunhuang governor.
"Now you are worthy of your title as governor."
Li Chengqian said this casually, but Xu Yuan was filled with gratitude.
"His Royal Highness, who was a minister before, is not an embarrassment to His Highness. From now on, the old minister will do his best to serve His Highness, and will never cause any more trouble to His Highness."
Xu Yuan and Li Chengqian chatted casually, and everyone present did not think there was anything inappropriate about it. Instead, they secretly mocked Songtsan cadres.
"Aren't you crazy? Don't you put us in our eyes? Now we don't put you in our eyes either, and we don't consider your feelings. Let's see what you can do."
Although Li Chengqian and Xu Yuan intended to chat here, Xu Yuan also intended to compliment His Highness the Crown Prince and save His Highness the Crown Prince from talking about his faults.
Everyone was happy to see the result and let the Tubo Songtsan cadre suffer a little loss in front of them.
Who allowed Tubo Songtsan cadres to irritate them too much?
However, there is a huge generation gap between Li Chengqian and Xu Yuan, so their conversation will not be so casual.
After such a satisfying chat for a period of time, the two of them completely finished their conversation, and Xu Yuan also finished reporting on his mission.
After hearing that Li Chengqian was going to take Songtsan cadres to Dunhuang City for an inspection and experience
Xu Yuan spared no effort to prepare for the customs and customs of the Tang Dynasty.
No matter what, His Highness the Crown Prince's face cannot be lost. No matter how His Highness the Crown Prince arranges it, Dunhuang City must be kept clean and tidy so that no one can find any flaws.
After Xu Yuan finally finished his work, he came to see Li Chengqian for his return. Li Chengqian finally nodded with satisfaction after hearing that Xu Yuan had done his work.
"Not bad, what you did this time satisfied me very much."
As for Songtsan cadres, they were equally happy after hearing the conversation between Li Chengqian and Xu Yuan.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is wise. It is truly an honor for me to take you to see the cities of the Tang Dynasty."
Cadre Songtsan was quite happy. He did not expect that Li Chengqian would ask him to visit the city of Datang. He hurriedly complimented Li Chengqian. But Li Chengqian looked at Cadre Songtsan's appearance and groped his chin as if he wanted to take a look. I saw that there was something I had forgotten, but I couldn't find a reason for it after looking at it.
Cadre Songtsan laughed at this.
"Your Highness, doesn't he know that we are going now?"
Looking at the eager Songtsan cadre, Li Chengqian temporarily shook his head and signaled to the Songtsan cadre to calm down, and then his face immediately became serious.
"Cadre Songtsen, what do you mean you are here?"
When Li Chengqian asked such a question, Songzan was stunned for a moment, but he immediately started talking.
"I am here this time to become a member of the Tang Dynasty. I wonder if His Highness the Crown Prince can agree?"
"Aha?"
This time, Li Chengqian felt a little bit defensive.
He couldn't handle it, but Xu Yuan, the governor of Dunhuang, stroked his beard and started talking as if he had thought of something.
"You want to become a member of the Tang Dynasty? Let me think about your purpose."
After Xu Yuan finished speaking, he stroked his beard and thought about the matter in front of him. After thinking about it for a short time, he figured out the causes and consequences of what Songtsan cadre was thinking and started talking again.
"You Tubo can be self-sufficient, but some things are limited and cannot meet your expectations. You want to become a part of my Datang, exchange your needs with my Datang, and then use the unimaginable uniqueness of the Tang Dynasty." Something to arm you with, right?"
Xu Yuan suddenly said such a sentence, and Li Chengqian looked at Songtsan cadre quite unhappily, but Songtsan cadre waved his hands.
"You are overthinking, how could I do this? I really want to be a member of the Tang Dynasty. I am willing to live in Chang'an, be an idle prince or anywhere else. As long as Tubo Bathed in the power of the Tang Dynasty, you can become a real part of the Tang Dynasty, just like the Japanese country you pacified turned into your Dongzhou, why can't you give us Tubo a chance?"
Cadre Songtsan said this. Li Chengqian was very worried at first, but his face suddenly became happy again. However, his face kept changing, but it made the Tiance Guard generals standing next to Li Chengqian tremble with fear.
Tubo already had a geographical advantage, and ordinary soldiers without training would simply not be able to adapt to the Tubo climate.
Coming to Tubo rashly will only increase casualties. Now Songtsan cadres want to become a member of the Tang Dynasty, but the Tang army needs to adapt.
In order to be able to climb the plateau, officials of the Tang Dynasty had to undergo training just like on the plains, which took time.
If something unexpected happens again and the Tang army does not have a suitable army for a while, the Tubo can once again become a force headed by Songtsan cadres, which makes it a little difficult for them to do anything.
After everyone wanted to understand the cause and effect of the matter, they became even more frightened.
He never considered that the ambition of Taoist Songtsan cadres would be so great.
However, everyone is thinking that Songtsan cadre is extremely ambitious. Can they suppress Songtsan cadre? Don't let Songtsan cadre cause any trouble to them, but Songtsan cadre looked at them as if he didn't think there was any serious problem, but said proudly.
"You are all generals of the Tang Dynasty. Do you still have to worry about my feelings as a Tibetan who really wants to be a Tang person?"
Cadre Songtsan's words made everyone in front of him stunned for a moment.
What does he mean by this sentence? Why do we still need to consider his feelings and what he wants to do?
Although everyone was a little confused as to what Cadre Songtsan meant, Cadre Songtsan started talking in front of them.
"Are you thinking too much? I sincerely want to become a member of the Tang Dynasty. From now on, there will be no Tubo, only the Tang Dynasty."
When Songtsan cadre said this, everyone was stunned for a moment, but Songtsan cadre continued to speak in front of them.
"Your current army is able to roam freely across Tubo territory, so why do you have to worry about it anymore? Today you have 10,000 men able to roam across Tubo territory.
If you are galloping up and down, there will be one hundred thousand tomorrow, and there may be millions in the future. In this case, what do you have to worry about? "
Songtsan cadre began to talk about the advantages of the Tang army, and Li Chengqian looked at Songtsan cadre and looked around. This group of generals were indeed quite assured of their own strength, but Dunhuang governor Xu Yuan was indeed frightened.
"Is this appropriate? After all, we are serious Tang troops, and we are not the king of the mountain who wants to claim the land as king. Why does it sound like we will occupy his land when we have the strength?"
Although everyone was very curious and didn't know why this happened all of a sudden, the governor of Dunhuang said something again.
"How do we know what you think when people's hearts are separated from each other? You become the county of our Datang. If you Tibetan people are no longer able to be self-sufficient every day and ask us to rescue you, this is not treating us as fat sheep." Kill it?"
After the Dunhuang Governor once again expressed his concerns, everyone also looked at Cadre Song Wen to see what Songtsan had to say. Cadre Songtsan did not disappoint everyone and hurriedly finished speaking to the Dunhuang Governor. Then we talked.
"It has been some years since the founding of Tubo. No matter what happened in the past, it will never be worse than before, right? The Tang Dynasty is so rich and will not seize our money for no reason. I have heard that our country is conquering the East. After the state, they did whatever the mainland of the Tang Dynasty did. Compared with our Tubo, they just changed their taxes into the taxes of the Tang Dynasty, and there was not much change. What's more, the taxes of the Tang Dynasty were higher than those of our Tubo. Even less.”
Cadre Songtsan expressed some of his thoughts, and some people nearby really began to consider what Cadre Songtsan said.
Is it really true that the taxes of the Tang Dynasty were lower than those of the Tibetan people? Under such circumstances, the taxes paid by Tibetan people have been reduced, and Tibetan people should be happy and encouraged.
Even if the Tibetan Songtsan cadres have different intentions, as long as they know the goodness of the Tang Dynasty, they will no longer side with the Songtsan cadres, and then look at Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian also looked at Xue Li and nodded, as if he knew the stakes. Then Li Chengqian looked at Xu Yuan, the governor of Dunhuang.
"Xu Yuan, please write to His Majesty and let my father decide this matter. Why do we have to consider this here? But since Songtsan cadres intend to join us in the Tang Dynasty, let all the dignitaries from Tubo come here Dunhuang City is waiting for arrangements."
But as soon as Li Chengqian finished speaking, Songtsan cadre looked at Li Chengqian with bright eyes.
"It seems that His Highness the Crown Prince intends to merge Tubo into the Tang Dynasty and become a county in the Tang Dynasty. In this way, I would like to thank His Highness the Crown Prince on behalf of tens of millions of Tibetan people."
Li Chengqian waved his hand, "Don't say it too early. I was originally going to reward you and make you a vassal of our Tang Dynasty, but now you actually want to be a member of my Tang Dynasty. With the entire Tibetan vassal, it is impossible to say that only Let my father decide this matter.
But you don't have to worry. Recently, I happened to be accompanying our store and wanted to have a good walk around here. It would be good to see the customs and customs of Datang. I would like to explore the way for you to enter Datang in the future. "
Changsun Chong, Cheng Chumo and others hurriedly echoed Li Chengqian's words.
"His Royal Highness is really kind-hearted."
And Songtsan cadres
Said hurriedly.
"This is a very good thing. Just listen to His Highness the Crown Prince. I wonder if His Highness the Crown Prince will take care of the food these days?"
Leader Songtsan's half-joking remark shocked everyone for a moment, but they started laughing again in an instant.
No matter what Songtsan's Ministry is considering, although they may not be clear about it, if it is sent to the DPRK and many ministers in the DPRK are considering it, will there still be loopholes for Songtsan's cadres to exploit?
This is impossible!
After dealing with the matter of Songtsan cadre, Li Chengqian took Songtsan cadre to Dunhuang.
Li Chengqian started talking on the way.
"Originally, I was going to make you the lord of the vassal state of the Tang Dynasty, but you want to annex me as a Tibetan. How can you still listen to my father?
During this period of time, please follow me to take you through the mountains and rivers of Datang, and let you know how powerful the country will be if you successfully enter Datang. "
"Thank you so much, Your Highness."
Cadre Songtsan was very happy, but he didn't know why, he always felt that he had forgotten something.
However, Songtsan cadres did not pay attention to these: "The most optimistic and critical thing now is to bring the Tibetan people into the Tang Dynasty, and we will talk about the rest later."
Cadre Songtsan didn't know that a lot of things had been decided in one sentence, and there were more than a dozen nobles following him watching outside the military camp.
