After a long time.
Songtsen Gampo said very seriously: "But Ben Zampu loves the Princess of Tang Dynasty very much. Does the Tang Dynasty look down on Ben Zampu and Tubo?"
"As long as Tian Khan agrees to this marriage, Tubo is willing to cede three cities, offer 100,000 cattle and sheep, 50,000 slaves, 50,000 war horses, and 50,000 taels of gold."
The corners of Tang Jian's eyes couldn't help but twitch. He didn't expect that the arrogant Songtsen Gampo would offer such a tempting condition for the Princess of Tang Dynasty.
Cattle, sheep, gold and slaves didn't matter. They could cede three cities and offer 50,000 plateau war horses. This was too tempting for the Tang Dynasty.
But when it comes to the marriage of the Princess of the Tang Dynasty, he, a small Honglu Temple bride, cannot make the final decision.
Even if His Majesty can agree to this matter, the living King of Hell will not agree. Even if the whole Tubo is exchanged for a princess of the Tang Dynasty, the King of Shu will never agree.
The living King of Hell only conquers with fists and truth.
"Zanpu, I am not the one to decide this matter. I must go back and report to Your Majesty before I can give you an answer."
Songtsen Gampo narrowed his eyes slightly. The conditions he offered were already the limit of Tubo. He didn't expect that Tang Dynasty would not agree to it because of its huge appetite.
Damn it, is Li Shimin determined to make things difficult for him?
Tubo needs time, at least ten years to recuperate.
At present, Tubo has just been unified after civil war, and many tribal leaders do not recognize him, let alone his innovations. However, Tubo must innovate, learn from the system of the Tang Dynasty, and pay attention to agricultural development.
If you can marry the princess of the Tang Dynasty, and then seek your own safety and become a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty, you will not only be able to get help from the Tang Dynasty, but also buy enough time for innovation and development.
Even if he paid several cities or even countless strategic supplies, he didn't care.
But he didn't expect that Datang seemed unwilling to marry his princess at all, let alone help him. Li Shimin was determined not to give him time to develop.
But now they are defeated again and again. Li Jing, an old man, and several generals from the Tang Dynasty are watching from the side. Tuyuhun has been destroyed, and the Tang Dynasty fought extremely easily.
What's even more disgusting is that Tubo's treasury is out of money, and even the leaders of the tribes are out of money.
This made him very confused, where did the money go?
"In this case, the Tang envoy will set off as soon as possible. Ben Zampu will send the Tibetan Prime Minister to follow you to Chang'an City and explain Ben Zampu's clear intentions to Tian Khan in person."
"To show sincerity, I am willing to give you one hundred thousand gold, cattle and sheep, fifty thousand gold..."
"Zanpu is really awesome!" Tang Jian raised his thumb happily.
"Don't worry Zamp, I will definitely speak kindly to His Majesty for Zamp."
"Report..."
At this moment, several Tubo guards suddenly ran in from outside, supporting a scout soldier. This man's face was full of exhaustion, and his clothes were soaked with sweat.
Songtsen Gampo was startled, his hand involuntarily grabbed the handle of his scimitar, stood up suddenly, and said coldly: "Say..."
Tang Jian also involuntarily touched the dagger in his sleeve, his face looking very ugly.
Damn old man Li Jing, are you trying to trick him to death again?
He looked around and saw that there were only two civil servants following him, and the rest were waiting outside. The other party had more than a dozen of Songtsen Gampo's guards, and they were dead this time.
"Old man, I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost." Tang Jian cursed in his heart. If old man Li Jing were here, he would definitely stab him to death without hesitation.
The scout said: "Zanpu, the Tang army has begun to gather its troops. Li Jing, the general manager of Longyou Road's march, sent a message asking Zanpu if the negotiation with the Tang envoy has been settled. If it is settled, send the people back to the Tang Dynasty as soon as possible, otherwise they will not Would you mind coming in to greet the envoy of the Tang Dynasty?"
When Songtsen Gampo heard this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the Tang Dynasty didn't break his skin and attack Tubo directly.
But then he became furious, Li Jing bullied others.
Tang Jian felt sore at the corners of his eyes inexplicably, and almost wanted to cry, as if he felt cared for.
Li Jing, old man, you scared me to death.
"Zanpu, in order to avoid unnecessary complications, I will take my leave. You will send people directly to the territory of the Tang Dynasty. I will wait for the Tibetan envoys at the border."
Songtsen Gampo stood up, with a gloomy face, he suppressed his anger and showed a smile: "That's very good." BIquGe.biz
"Please also ask Tang Envoy to tell Manager Li Jing that peace is the most important thing."
"It's natural!"
Songtsen Gampo really has no confidence that he can stop the Tang army now. He has an army of 100,000, but these 100,000 troops have been here for several months and have spent countless materials, money and food. Now they can even steal from Tuyuhun The cattle and sheep were all eaten up.
Otherwise, we will never withdraw our troops from Tuyuhun territory.
Tang Jian left, swaggering out of Songtsen Gampo's court. This was the happiest mission he had ever made since he became the Minister of Honglu Temple.
In the court tent, Songtsen Gampo angrily hacked two maids to death with two knives. These two maids had been presented to him by the local tribe before. They looked crooked and cracked, and they made him upset when they saw them.
As soon as he was angry, he convened a meeting with the border guards, civil servants and military generals to discuss how to deal with the aggressiveness of the Tang Dynasty in the next step.
At the same time, arrangements were made for personnel to be envoys to Datang.
Outside the court tent.
Tubo Prime Minister Lu Dongzan stood in the distance, watching Tang Jian leave, with neither happiness nor sadness on his face. In the past few months, he had made a lot of money relying on the drinks of the King of Shu.
Some time ago, the King of Shu sent someone another perfume and soap. I put it down. Those things are really profitable. There are fifty sets in total. One set is sold for 10,000 guan. He only needs to give 5,000 to the King of Shu. Through.
The nobles on the plateau really don't lack gold. What they lack is such fragrant things. Especially the women of the nobles are crazy.
It's a pity that His Highness the King of Shu only gave him fifty sets.
He was making money, but recently he discovered that that piece of shit Tashi seemed to be making money faster than him.
He secretly investigated and found that he had obtained a magical medicine from the King of Shu. It was said that after taking it, he was extremely powerful. Now the nobles on the entire grassland, no, even the poor, have begun to take that medicine.
The medicine is very cheap, one pill only costs the price of a sheep, so most people can afford it.
In fact, if you want to make money with this kind of thing, it all depends on quantity.
But that guy from Tashi just sent people to the border to transport it, and then he just sat down and started making money when he came back. He distributed the things to the people below to sell them, and he sold them at fucking high prices.
As long as the agents below can make money, the last people to eat are those at the bottom.
Now ordinary herdsmen have no intention of herding cattle and sheep, and they all want to sell their cattle and sheep and take those powerful pills that can turn them into immortals.
Things don't look good.
But he had no better solution. This money was not made by Tashi alone, but by thousands of people.
If this thing is banned, it will offend the nobles on the entire plateau.
However, although Lu Dongzan was aware of the dangers of this thing at this moment, he was also in the middle of the game without knowing it.
The herdsmen had no intention of grazing, and the poor had no intention of farming. The nobles just wanted to sell medicine to those people and earn gold from ordinary people. However, all the gold the nobles earned from ordinary people was used to buy the luxury goods sold by Ta Ludong Chan.
The final result was that a large amount of gold flowed to the Tang Dynasty, which may directly lead to the subjugation of Tubo.
Songtsen Gampo, the hero of the plateau, till now, does not even know about this.
Because the nobles and civil and military ministers below did not want him to know about this.
