Chapter 1379: It's hard to have another sky

Fazl suddenly had the idea of betraying al-Mansur, and even he found it hard to believe that if he had been told that he was going to betray the caliph at the beginning of his journey from Ctesiphon, or at the time of his arrival in Sylvain, he would have thought it a lie that was even more worthless than that the sun would no longer rise.

Now, however, he had this idea, and once it was born, it was as difficult to contain as a flood.

Fearful of the unknown and death, Fazler began to plan for his future.

If he returned to Ctesiphon as planned, he thought he would have a good chance of becoming a scapegoat for al-Mansur's ministers and generals, who would be born to be a scapegoat?

And according to Mansour's temperament, if he were to be used as a scapegoat, in order to lose the province of Fars and Mahdi as a prisoner, I am afraid that the whole family and even the entire tribe will be implicated.

No matter how you choose, you can't escape the cruel punishment, rather than this, it is better to leave your own life, and there may be a possibility of turning over in the future.

The people of the Tang Dynasty were quite tolerant of those who surrendered, and even those who were captured, and some of them were entrusted with important tasks.

Fazl, who had always seemed loyal to the caliph, also began to become half-hearted.

However, this seemingly sudden turn of events made it difficult for Said, who absolutely did not want to see Fazl betray Mansur and join the Tang people.

Because he still has a secret mission on him, he must return to Ctesiphon to return to Mansur.

Said was silent for a long time before he finally gave a slow reply.

"Your Highness really thinks about it, this is not a trivial matter, what consequences will it bring to the family and tribe if you choose it easily, Your Highness should know better than the villain, now the villain does not answer this question, I hope Your Highness will think about it all night!"

These words were not enough to change Fazler's mind, but he still hesitated after all, and was not like Khazar, who was burdened with blood and family feuds, and was determined to defect to the Tang Dynasty in order to take revenge on Mansur.

It's just that Fazler wanted to know what Said was thinking in his heart, so he continued to ask:

Although the caliph is the king of kings like a lion, he has never shown mercy to the loser, and now the Mahdi has become a prisoner, and the province of Fars has also been lost, if this is the only way, an armistice can be reached through negotiations, and it can be regarded as living up to the trust of the caliph, but all this has completely changed after the arrival of Qajar, the Tang Dynasty will definitely not agree to the truce, return to Ctesiphon, can you and I get rid of responsibility?"

Said was silent again, not touched by Fazler's words, but pondering what to say in order to express it best. If you pat your chest and declare how faithful you are to the caliph, then you can't fake it anymore.

And if he did, he would be wary of him.

"What His Royal Highness said is very true, but the Tang people are insidious, if there is no way, it is easy, Qin Yi should not choose this path!"

Hearing this, Fazler sighed and muttered:

"If there is a choice, of course I don't want to bear the shame and pain of betraying the caliph, betraying my family and tribe, but instead of going back to die meaninglessly, it is better to survive, and maybe there will be a day to turn over......"

What he said was obviously from his heart, and he intended to make a choice with Said!

"What if there was a way not to die?"

Said stared at Fazler intently and asked word by word.

Khazar finally got his wish to meet the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, and the young man of the other party made him even think that this was an impostor, but after a few words, his suspicions disappeared.

Because everything can be played, but the aura smoked by power can't be played no matter what.

Although the other party is young, he can make every gesture with the confidence of the person in power, and he always exudes the demeanor of having everything under control.

For this reason, Qajar even decided to postpone the conditions he had put forward when he planned to meet before, and then see the situation first. He had a hunch that this person looked young, but he was by no means a good person, and if he rashly brought it up, it might arouse the other party's disgust, and it would be troublesome.

This was a private meeting, and only Qin Jin and Khazar were present.

He decided to see Qajar because he felt that the time was almost up, and before embarking on the journey back to Chang'an, the problem must be resolved, the battle of Ilam must end, and Qajar must be placed in the position of caliph, so that he can sit in Ilam and compete with Mansur for the territory and hearts of the people.

Doing so much, in the final analysis, is to weaken Mansur to the greatest extent, the weaker Mansur is, the more stable the Tang Dynasty will stand in Persia.

The Persian Governorate was responsible for the security of the westernmost part of the border, and planned to station at least 50,000 Shenwu troops, and at least 500,000 prisoners and good families to be requisitioned by Middle-earth to replenish the population.

The time is too short, and the planning of the Persian Governorate can only be handed over to those who are interested in expanding the territory, and it is especially rare for children of families like Cui Yin to be both capable and well-born.

The appearance of Qajar at this time is a crucial part of many plans, and it is definitely more suitable to support a guy whose identity and status do not match his ability than Mahdi, who is double excellent.

Moreover, the support of Qajar has an advantage that Mahdi does not have, that is, Qajar and Mansour have a deep blood feud, and the possibility of their reconciliation is almost zero.

Khazar didn't know these thoughts, he couldn't analyze anything on that indistinguishable face, and he didn't know what the other party was thinking.

Although objectively analyzed, the people of the Tang Dynasty would definitely cooperate with him, but when he really saw the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty himself, Khazar still beat a drum in his heart.

I don't know if Qin Jin is really willing to help him live more Elam and ensure his safety.

Although the Great Food Empire is in trouble, no matter how thin a lion is, it can bite a strong bison to death, and Khazar knows that his strength is far inferior to Mansour, even if he can live Elam longer, he may not last long without strong protection.

However, after the two people met, they talked about some irrelevant topics, and none of them touched on the main topic.

Gradually, Khazar loses patience and suffers from the psychology of gain and loss, and he desperately wants to know if the other party will help him.

If you don't get shelter here in the Tang Dynasty, I'm afraid you really have to be a timid fugitive.

Tocharian in the east was a nice place, and it was very tolerant of fugitives, but now that it was under the control of the Tang Dynasty, he really didn't know if he would have a place to stay if he was rejected......
