Chapter 1382: Return to Ctesiphon

When Said returned to the tent, he tossed and turned, couldn't sleep at night, and finally made a bold decision.

At dawn, he arrived at Fazler's tent with a few retinues as usual, and told him about whether or not to surrender to the Tang Dynasty.

Fazler unexpectedly and firmly denied the surrender, and said that he would persist in completing the task given to him by the caliph, and would return to Ctesiphon to resume his life regardless of whether he succeeded or not.

If it weren't for the fact that he had learned some inside information last night, Saeed would have believed that Fazle had gotten rid of his hesitation, but now he knew very well that the prince had betrayed him along with him. Then there is nothing soft to be soft, everyone has something to hold on to and fight for, and Said's ultimate goal is to return to Ctesiphon.

Saeed, who had no warning, was about the same age as Fazle, but he was far more aggressive than the princes and nobles who had never been on the battlefield and who had never been on the battlefield.

A delicate silver dagger rested on Fazler's lower back.

"Your Highness, since you are determined to betray the caliph, don't blame the villain for being ruthless!"

Fazler never dreamed that Said, who had always been obedient, would burst into a surprise attack, and he was a little terrified in the face of the dagger blade.

"You, what are you going to do?"

Said snorted coldly and said:

"Don't worry, I won't kill you, but you, you must go back to Ctesiphon with me!"

"No way...... Guards, guards ......"

Fazler realizes that his plan has been revealed, and realizes that following Said back to Ctesiphon will only be more painful than death, so he takes the risk of calling out to the guards to save him, as long as he alarms more people he will be safe.

But the door to the tent opened, and it was not the guards who entered, but Saeed's unassuming retinue.

They've taken care of all the guards outside the door.

Said, who has been running a business for many years, has a group of dead soldiers around him to protect his safety, and the carefully selected entourage is all people who seem to be ordinary, but they are all stunts.

"Said, whatever you want, I can satisfy you, please don't bring me back to Ctesiphon!"

Seeing this situation, Fazler's tone softened again, and he spoke in a tone that bordered on pleading.

"Your Highness, it's too late, what I need is for you to return to Ctesiphon with me, this is impossible for you to do, I can only help you do it!"

At this point, Said's voice lost its previous deference, and there was even a slight excitement and coldness in his tone.

As a big businessman who stands tall in troubled times, he must have the characteristics of ruthlessness and ruthlessness, and he must be able to make decisions that are beneficial to him at critical moments.

Therefore, Fazler escorted back to Ctesiphon, and he did not have the slightest psychological burden.

"No, no, no, don't send me back to Ctesiphon, do you want money? I have a lot of possessions outside Ctesiphon, how much do you want? I'll give it to you, give it to you!"

Fazler made a point of emphasizing it twice, hoping to use money to save his fate.

Knowing that the trapped beast was still fighting, Saeed was not in a hurry to block all the ways of Fazler's survival, so he asked in a matter-of-fact manner:

"Where does His Highness still have property, the villain is curious and wants to know some ......"

Fazler named several provinces in succession, all of which were the territories of his tribe and naturally owned many possessions.

Said, however, sighed regretfully.

"If I go to His Highness's territory, will I be retaliated against? After all, none of your property can be taken away, how can it be used to buy His Highness's life?"

Fazler naturally denied that his people would retaliate, and repeatedly assured him with a clap on his chest:

"My tribe has territories in the provinces of Medes and Yazd, where the annual tax revenue is in the hundreds of thousands of dinars, how much do you want, 100,000 or 200,000?

This is true, although Medes and Yazd are not rich provinces, they can also scrape a considerable amount of income every year by relying on the poll tax.

As a sign of goodwill, Fazler also assured:

"I can get my people to exchange all their goods for gold and precious stones of equal value, so that you can carry them easily, as long as you don't send me back to Ctesiphon!"

Fazler is not a lucky person, he knows that Said is not a stupid person, since he has taken this step, he must have made arrangements, and may even secretly collude with the Tang people.

Moreover, when he expressed his willingness to surrender to the Tang people last night, he even said that even his family territory could be assigned to the Tang people's rule, but the other party did not give a definite answer.

After dragging on like this overnight, Saeed's actions to the present may be the answer of the Tang people!

Therefore, Fazler, who no longer has a fluke mentality, really wants to use his property to return his life, as long as Said can return him to the territory, there is still the possibility of turning over.

If Said were allowed to return him to Ctesiphon, he would face the most cruel punishment.

In addition, Fazler has repeatedly assured that he will never retaliate against Said, he is not a ruthless person, and he just hopes that it is enough to ensure his own safety.

Said also made a pretentious condition, asking him to write a letter to the Tang people immediately, claiming to return to Ctesiphon immediately, and all negotiations would not continue.

Fazler was obedient and did so one by one.

Soon, the resignation was placed on Zheng Xianli's desk, and at this time, Qin Jin had already set off for the south to inspect and dispose of it with full authority.

Fazler's actions were somewhat unexpected, but Qin Jin's attitude was that he did not want to accommodate this person, so he pushed the boat down the river and sent someone to send them away from Sylvan.

Qin Jin received a secret report sent by Said on the road, and after learning that Fazler was about to be forcibly taken back to Ctesiphon, he breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that this Said is not just like what appears on the surface, not only a good old man with eight faces, but also a cold and ruthless side.

It would be better for him to spend more time and energy arranging the matter, as long as he brought Fazl back to Ctesiphon, and the scapegoat would not have to be Saeed.

Fazler, whose status is far superior to Said's, is naturally unyielding.

Moreover, al-Mansur's successive punishments of the royal family and his close retainers must have shaken the foundations of his rule, but these were things he had to do in order to maintain his rule.

It's a bit like drinking to quench your thirst, but if you don't do it, it's hard to avoid the immediate crisis.

Looks like Mansour is going to be burnt out.

Suddenly, there was a loud singing in the distance, and it was a herdsman driving the sheep in the distance.
