It was already dark in the Potala Palace in Luoche City. Napoda took his eldest son Gelong and a man dressed as a servant and got into the Potala Palace from a secret entrance.
As for why Napda knew this secret passage into the Potala Palace, it was because Napda's Black Water Department was directly under the orders of the Zamp family.
Today's logic has formed an extremely strange political pattern.
The Zamp family was trapped in the Potala Palace, and it was not easy to order them out of the palace.
Because Luoxue City and its surrounding areas were controlled by a group of feudal aristocrats such as Lu Hui, Ba, La, and Bulu.
There is both struggle and cooperation within them. The core idea is to control Zampu in the palace and become a puppet.
And in places far away from Luzuo, there are a large number of fringe members of the Zamp family who control them, or there are strong forces loyal to the Zamp family like the Blackwater Ministry.
Well, they are not really loyal to Zamp, but if they don't pretend to be loyal to Zamp and cooperate with Zamp in the Potala Palace, they will soon be defeated by these powerful family political groups located near Luoche. Give annexation.
Therefore, the current logical political situation is that Zampu is blocked in the Potala Palace by the big family political group.
In addition to the logic, there are a large number of Zanpu's "loyal ministers", which makes the big families somewhat hostile to Zanpu, and the three parties form a relatively stable nesting doll with each other.
The end of this kind of nesting doll in history is that after the revival of Buddhism in the past few decades, the Zanpu family has completely lost the last bit of legal principles and morality.
As a result, the surrounding area of Luoxue City immediately became one, and fierce internal fighting among the big families began. At one time, the Potala Palace was completely destroyed, leaving only the corner of Resa, the Jokhang Temple.
The Potala Palace we saw in later generations was actually restored by the fifth Dalai Lama Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso in 1645, the first year of Longwu in the Southern Ming Dynasty.
After drilling small holes one after another, Napda and the other three finally arrived at the Resa (Jokhang Temple) inside the palace.
Zanpu Triwang Xuzan was escorted by several warriors of the Zanpu family. He wore a large-lapel Qiubazang robe made of brocade with a left gusset. Because it was not a formal occasion, he did not wear a crimson morning glow crown, but a simple one. Tie a red forehead bandage.
Triwang Xuzan naturally knew Napda, and Napda did not sneak into Luoxue City just today. He had been in for two days, and only came in to see him after getting Zanpu Chiwang Xuzan's permission.
As for why Lu Hui and other big family political groups did not completely blockade Luoxe City or the Potala Palace, it is because they simply do not have the ability.
Luoxue City is not decided by one family, but by five families. This gives Napda and others the best chance to sneak in.
When Zanpu's position was reported to Chiwang Xuzan, he had long lost the majesty of his ancestors. Otherwise, it would be such a simple summons without a big ceremony and bow, and he would not be able to enter and bow.
At this time, Chiwang Xuzan was already anxious. When he saw Napda coming in, he immediately ordered people to arrange brocade stools for them, and asked eagerly: "How many armored soldiers did Dongdai bring? Can they escort me out?" To Naqu?"
At this time, the Tubo Empire had long since lost its rituals and music, and Dongdai, which was originally used to address local important ministers, was no longer available to everyone, big or small.
Chi Wang Xu Zan Zan Pu's face also showed a bit of embarrassment. It seemed that it was nothing to escort him out of Naqu. But Zan Pu wanted to get out. There was only one way, and that was to get rid of that little dog like Napda and the others. hole out.
Napoda immediately rejected Zamp's proposal. He did not say that he was unable to take Zamp out, but advised: "It is not a good idea for Zamp to go to Duokang. The grievances of Niobagon's descendants have not yet been resolved." Eliminate it.”
Napoda knew that Zamp didn’t want to go to Nagqu, but to Duokang.
There were two Duokangs at this time. The broad geographical concept of Duokang refers to the Hengduan Mountains in northwest Sichuan and northwest Yunnan.
The small Duokang was located near Shigatse in later generations.
Niobagon was the great-uncle of Zanpu Triwang Xuzan. He was expelled from Luoche to Duokang (near Shigatse) because he believed in Buddhism.
However, although they were expelled, after two generations of development, they actually gained some strength, which was better than being trapped in the Potala Palace.
Zanpu Chizan Xu Wang sighed and nodded. He actually knew that going to Duokang was not a good idea, but he really had no choice. He just asked with the last hope.
However, Chizan Xuwang was sighing, but his son Chanayixi Jiacan's eyes lit up. He said to his father: "Since Heishui Dongdai ventured into the palace, he must have been prepared. Why not invite Dongdai?" Just say it."
yes! Only then did Chizan Xu Wang react, "If Dong Dai has any clever ideas that can help me get out of trouble, please tell me and I will give you a reward."
With that said, Chiwang Xuzan ordered someone to bring out a small box of treasures, which seemed to be the remaining wealth of the Zampu family.
"I do have a plan, and I don't need a reward from Zanpu." Napda bowed and said.
"Loyal minister!" Chiwang Xuzan exclaimed. At this moment, he ventured into the palace without asking for a reward. He had not seen such a loyal minister for many years. He praised and helped Napda up with his own hands.
"For Zanpu's current plan, he can only avoid the disaster of death and annihilation of his family by seeking refuge with his uncle's family!" Napda said calmly.
"Uncle's family?" Chiwang Xuzan was a little confused, and his son Zhanayixi Jiacan was also stunned.
The Cai Bang family of Chiwang Xuzan's uncle had been defeated in the struggle more than ten years ago and was driven out of Luocei, with no way to rely on him.
Moreover, the Cai Bang family's base is in Yalong, Shannan, and it is said that they have now gotten involved with Triwang Xuzan's distant cousin Chizha Xizibabe, and are preparing to support his uncle in Shannan. general.
Okay, this is really messy! Chi Wang Xu Zan was running around anxiously. In such a big Tubo, is there no room for his Zanpu?
"The uncle's family mentioned by Dong Dai is not the Cai Bang family, but the uncle's family of Zanpu's ancestor!"
Just when Chiwang Xuzan was extremely anxious, the tall man who had been standing behind Napda spoke.
"Ancestor's uncle's family?" Chiwang Xuzan still didn't understand. He really couldn't connect his uncle's family with the Central Plains.
"Zanpu's ancestor married Princess Dachao as Jumong, called His Majesty Dachao uncle, and called himself nephew. Zanpu's eighth grandmother was Princess Jincheng of Dachao, and she was also the nephew of Dachao.
Today, the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the Central Plains is related to the brother of the emperor of the later dynasty. In terms of seniority, he is Zanpu's cousin. "
Originally, Zhang Yan was supposed to be of the same generation as Chiwang Xuzan, but after Zhang Yan adopted Brother Yelvxiu as his adopted son, he forcibly raised himself up a generation, and now he is of the same generation as Yelu Abaoji.
Yelu Abaoji and Li Keyong were about to be brothers. Rounding off, Zhang Gao was the same generation as Li Keyong and could be regarded as the uncle of Emperor Zhuangzong Li Cunxu.
From the perspective of Princess Jincheng, Princess Jincheng is the sister of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. After all the twists and turns, Zhang Yan is the distant cousin of Zanpu Chiwang Xuzan.
If we want to discuss this relationship for a longer time, we have to go back three hundred years. Even though Chiwang Xuzan is good at dealing with this kind of relationship, it took him a long time to figure it out.
Are you asking whether Zamp will be dissatisfied? Don't tell me a joke, he has been trapped in the Potala Palace for generations, how can he still have much temper, all he thinks about is how to escape the fate of being doomed to be killed by his whole family in the future.
When it comes to engaging in political struggles or even governing the country, Chi Wang Xu Zan is not good at it, but how to sell Zan Pu's identity at a good price? He has a clear background.
Moreover, Chiwang Xuzan is not worried that Napda is sent by the major families to fish. He is already in such a miserable condition. He is just a rubber stamp. He is obedient and easy to use, so there is no need to catch his fish! No need.
Usually, as long as the major families decide what they want to do, Chiwang Xuzan only needs to nod in agreement.
If a foreign powerful faction came in to seize power now, Chiwang Xuzan would not be so nervous.
But when the Six Dharma Sect came, he was very scared, because he was a direct descendant of the destroying Buddha Zan Purang Dama, so how could he not be afraid.
When he heard someone say this, he didn't even ask who the person who came with Napda was, who was obviously from the Central Plains Dynasty, and he got a little excited and asked doubtfully.
"So, my little Zampu is the nephew of the Supreme Dharma King? I wonder if my uncle has brought some gifts for my nephew?"
This was not only shameless, it was simply shameless. Even Lonpo Ren’s nephew, Lon Zhen, the Six Dharma Sect’s Swastika practitioner, who had prepared a lot of rhetoric, was stunned. After a while, he said:
"If Zanpu is willing, the Supreme Dharma King would like to meet his nephew in Chang'an. If he has Buddha nature, he can return to Luoxiang and become a living Buddha in the future."
Chiwang Xuzan naturally knew the identity of the Living Buddha of the Six Dharma Sect, but he was frightened by this power struggle and immediately waved his hand.
"My nephew doesn't have any Buddha-nature. He only likes delicacies from the mountains and seas, and mellow wine and sweet drinks. But maybe my descendants can have some Buddha-nature."
Lun Zhen understood and nodded slowly, "It doesn't matter if you don't have Buddha nature. The Supreme God has left big houses with three hundred rooms each for Zanpu in Chang'an, Luoyang and Tokyo.
Every year, Wei Ru's taxes are all discounted and given to Zanpu, which is enough to support Zanpu and his family in the prosperous hometown of the Central Plains. "
For example, it is the administrative division of the Tubo Empire, and Weiru is basically around Luozhe.
Chiwang Xuzan nodded with satisfaction, "I heard that many mountain people may not be able to adapt when they come down the mountain."
Lun Zhen immediately said: "Then you can go to Kangding County, north of Ya'an Prefecture, to enjoy the cool weather."
Chiwang Xuzan originally wanted to say that it would be better if he could enjoy the cool weather in Qingtang, that is, Huangshui Mansion of the Han people, but he did not dare to mention it because the Supreme God would definitely not allow it.
"In that case, thank you very much, your envoy. If there is anything you need me to do, I will definitely support you."
.
.
Outside Luozhe City, this strange event, which could not be said to be a battle or a party, had been lively for five or six days.
The city felt like it was facing a formidable enemy, and the people outside the city were eating and drinking. It was so lively that the nobles of the major families in the city couldn't hold it any longer.
I sent envoys to ask, but they all got the same confusing answers.
Although there were so many eminent sages and Rinpoches of the Six Dharma Sects giving lectures, it was not said that the Gar family had come back for revenge and wanted Zanpu to lead his troops to fight to the death.
Simply sick!
All the big shots from the Lhasa royal family were thinking about it, but they couldn't figure out what kind of conspiracy there was.
But they know very well that they can no longer allow the Six Methods Sect to mess around outside. If they continue, they will win over the people's hearts. People like them may receive fox tails from various tribes, large and small.
It's no wonder that these people can't sit still. On the Qingtang Plateau, people who have been trained by the Bon religion have a strong religious atmosphere. The teachings and methods of the Six Methods Sect have crushed the relatively primitive religion of the Bon religion in many aspects. .
It is true that if they don't go to war, the tribesmen of all sizes outside the city will be abducted by the Six Methods Sect.
Of course, it was not completely meaningless for them to wait these days, because Luoxue City was actually not very armed.
After all, it is the major families that support Zanpu, rather than Cao Mengde holding the emperor to order the princes. Therefore, each family has a tacit understanding and keeps the family's military force in their respective spheres of influence. Those who come to Luoxue City only bring Got some basic guards.
With these few days of buffering, the major families have already transferred their respective armies that are close to Luoche City to Luoche.
Rumbling footsteps came. Zanpu Chiwang Xuzan was wearing golden treasure armor. This was a very gorgeous Mingguang armor. At first glance, it came from the collection of the Li Tang court.
Although Chiwang Xuzan is not a tall man, this bright light armor makes him look like a celestial being.
Behind Zanpu were the political and military groups such as Lu Hui, Ba, La, and the private soldiers of big families such as the Bulu family. There were more than 20,000 people, including at least 8,000 armored soldiers and cavalry.
They formed an array according to their respective family divisions, which can be regarded as the strongest military force that has appeared in Luoxu City in the past ten or twenty years.
Here, Lunbo Ren, together with Langjie Jiangcuo and others, also formed an array of more than 10,000 infantrymen who had gone up to the plateau. Although they were small in number, they had about five or six thousand armored soldiers and armored cavalry. It seemed that both sides were at least on the same level. At the elite level, they are evenly matched.
In other words, Bo Ren's side looks more powerful because they are all wrapped in white shirts and have many crossbows.
Seeing that a fight was really about to begin, the fun-loving people by the Jasa River became even more excited. They gathered around the armies of both sides with friends, and they were as dark as crows, covering every place, waiting to see the fun.
Of course, there are also some devout Buddhists who choose to stand with Lunbo Ren and others, but their number is not large, only about ten thousand people.
Lunbo Ren stood on a high place, stood on tiptoes, squinted his eyes and looked across. Finally, not far from Zanpu Chiwang Xuzan, he saw Lunzhen, who was deliberately wearing a red robe and a white hat.
Lun Boren was overjoyed, and then ordered his attendants to put on a silver-white cloth-covered iron armor and a composite iron helmet. He held a long spear in his hand and came to the center in front of the two armies under the protection of two elite cavalry.
"Today's fight is all caused by hundreds of years of grudges between your and my families. How can my ancestors be wronged? They tried their best to fight for Tibet, but they ended up dead and dead. I am not willing to kill more people today. Please come out. How about a duel with someone, where each person wins or loses based on his own ability?"
Lu Hui, Wu Lu and other family members were all stunned. Are you playing house?
And they could imagine that Zamp's face under the iron helmet at this moment must be ashen.
Because the Gar family has always produced powerful generals, Lun Bo Ren across from him looked like a warrior who had experienced hundreds of battles.
And Zanpu Triwang Xuzan is already over forty years old. He can wear dozens of kilograms of armor and ride a horse today, which is considered very good. How dare he go up to challenge Lunbo Ren?
However, to everyone's expectation, Zanpu Chiwang Xuzan actually clamped his horse's belly, rode the horse forward slowly, and took two guards with him, pretending to go into battle.
For a moment, the musicians cheered like a tsunami, and everyone felt that their outlook on life was about to be shattered. They even forgot to stop it.
"No! Zamp is leaving!" The leader of the most powerful Lu Hui Group had to be the smartest. He suddenly realized something was wrong. This was not a duel, Zamp was leaving!
He waved his hand, and more than ten riders immediately chased Zanpu Chiwang Xuzan.
Almost at the same time, Zampu on horseback suddenly jerked his horse's buttocks and ran away in that direction quickly.
The guards around Zan Pu actually drew their weapons, aimed at the cavalry chasing after Lu Hui's family, and killed them directly.
convex
It turned out that this was the case. The heads of other families immediately reacted and asked their cavalry to chase them.
It might as well be said that Bo Ren rode his horse straight up. He was dressed in silver armor and shouted, "The Lu Hui family held Zan Pu hostage and massacred the lama. I will only kill him today!"
Before the shouts could be heard, gongs rang out, and a group of fine cavalry that had been prepared rushed out from the Zhou army's formation. They rushed towards the head of Lu Hui's house like flying. As for Zanpu, they had already been guarded by them. Toward Zhou Jun's side.
"Wow!" After a uniform exclamation, all the onlookers were stunned. This is so exciting!
Almost at the same time, everyone except Lu Hui's family heard shouts of killing only Lu Hui's family that shook the roof tiles. They hesitated and confused and failed to respond in time.
Then, Lu Hui's family, who was not on much defense, was directly flooded, and the Lu Hui family's military formation was also washed to pieces.
The other families didn't know if they should go up. After a while, they saw the Zhou army with infantry as the center and cavalry coming from both wings.
Those people who were surrounding seemed to be starting to see the battle becoming one-sided, and then they were a little bit ready to make a move.
