Chapter VII Variables 2
Shocked by the words of the prince of Tazi, Liu Zuochen understood that Antai's bloody storm eight years ago quickly spread from Kyoto to the localities, and many high-ranking officials fell one after another and left the emperor's vision.
The people are secretive and can still see some clues, and most of the corrupt officials have fallen from power, which is indeed very happy.
Finally showing a surprised performance, the prince of Tazi was very satisfied with the look caused to Liu Zuochen, so he looked at him quietly and pondered.
"Lord Tazi, Shi Guo and Antai have a grudge in the past?"
Liu Zuochen, who had been pondering for a long time, finally spoke, and in addition, he couldn't think of any reason why Antai wanted to send troops to Shiguo, although Antai Treasury was already full of money after the emperor's ulterior motives, but he had no motive to use force against the surrounding countries, and it seemed that he couldn't explain why he attacked the tributary vassals.
After some explanations by the prince of Tazi, Liu Zuochen somewhat understood the reason for the matter.
Originally, Shiguo was originally a subject country of Antai, and it was the main transportation route from Tubo (now Qinghai-Tibet Plateau) to the four towns of Anxi. Tubo Zampu married the princess to the king of Shiguo as his wife, and Shiguo was attached to Tubo, and Tubo then controlled the northwest countries, so "more than 20 countries in the northwest are all vassals of Tubo", interrupted the tribute to Antai, Antai several Anxi Jiedu envoys sent troops to crusade several times, because of the dangerous terrain, coupled with Tubo's assistance, all in vain.
Several times were frustrated, which made Emperor Antai angry, is this worth it? In the long run, many small affiliated countries have followed suit, abandoning the big countries of the Antai Celestial Empire, which is unbearable! It is urgent for him to get the end that Shiguo deserves!
So that's the case, Liu Zuochen secretly thought, even so, it is necessary for the prince of Tazi to travel thousands of miles, just to tell the whole story of this matter and Antai's motives? couldn't help but smile, looked at the prince of Tazi and said, "Fortunately, it's not Antai who started a war in the Great Food Country,...... It doesn't affect my trade. ”
It's all about it, sit back and relax. It was indeed the reason for Liu Zuochen's peace of mind at this time, and the words of the prince of Tazi couldn't help but make him frown again.
"Shi Guo, the relationship with the Great Food Country, can be described as a cold position. If the Shi Kingdom is destroyed, the Shi Kingdom will be a springboard for Antai to attack the countries of the Western Regions......" The prince of Tazi paused slightly with a solemn face, and said: "Do you dare to conclude that Antai will not use force against the Great Food Country?" ”
At this time, the Great Food Country is said to have been unified, but in fact, there are still many smaller countries affiliated to form the Arab Empire, and it is good that there is no major external interference.
Such a topic is too heavy, naturally it is not a topic that Liu Zuochen is willing to discuss, not to mention, he Liu Zuochen has no ambition to seek power, just looking forward to the happiness and health of his family, although Xin Fu's index is a bit lofty in his heart, but he thinks so.
Liu Zuochen, who was thinking like this, smiled shyly, how could he be embarrassed to say that Da Antai was not? What's more, national affairs are easy to tolerate in front of the prince of Tazi, right? It's like revealing his own ugly things in front of outsiders, Liu Zuochen thinks, so empty that people see jokes.
Seeing Liu Zuochen's expression, the prince of Tazi was not annoyed, and said slowly: "Once there is a ...... of war, you say, who will lead the troops to attack my Great Food Country?" ”
"Of course it'......"
Liu Zuochen blurted out, and then stopped abruptly.
"Not bad! It's General Liu Shangwu Liu! When the prince of Tazi said this, he actually stroked his palms and laughed, and said, "Isn't it interesting?" ”
It's really a trick! Liu Zuochen secretly slandered in his heart, it turned out that the prince of Tazi had actually led the topic here, but he couldn't laugh at this time.
"Lord Tazi, if you have something to say, just go around like this, I can't stand it."
Hearing Liu Zuochen's cold words, he knew that this kid in front of him could not be taken lightly, he dared to attack Prince Jing in Antai Kyoto City, not to mention that he was now far away from Antai and went to the Great Food Country, once he annoyed this evil star, God knows what kind of ghost idea he could come up with. The prince of Tazi didn't want to make a grudge against this evil star on a trip to the border.
"Liu Gongzi, don't mind, this king doesn't mean anything when he talks about things,...... There is still a long way to go, and this king has no intention of resenting your father and son," Prince Tazi looked at Liu Zuochen, who was slightly furrowed, and deliberately slowed down his tone and said: "This king said this, just to want you and General Liu to make a report as soon as possible, so as not to meet in the future, then ...... It's all something we don't want to see, isn't it? ”
What you said is light, you said that if you don't meet each other, you won't meet each other? After all, the border generals are also eating the emperor's money, once the holy decree is handed down, can they still shirk it? Thinking of this, Liu Zuochen raised his hand and pinched his brows, feeling even more depressed, originally because he found that the gang on the border was not aimed at him and was in a somewhat comfortable mood, but he was troubled by possible problems in the future.
With a wry smile, Liu Zuochen said, "Prince Tazi, do you have a way to compromise?" It seems that if the two emperors of the two countries were not able to decide the direction of this kind of military confrontation, no one should be able to influence it, right? ”
"Not bad! That's how it should be. Lord Tazi nodded and said.
"Then ......, why do you say that you don't want to meet in the future, and you want me to report to my father?"
Prince Tazi stared at Liu Zuochen for a long time with deep eyes, and said: "In this ......, variables are all man-made, don't you think so?" ”
Liu Zuochen is familiar with this sentence, and he is also adhering to this principle to spur himself on when he starts a career, but for national events that have not been thought out deeply, Liu Zuochen can't turn around for a while. I can't help but secretly slander in my heart, and I like to keep things secret, so I can't really talk straight to the point?
Where did Liu Zuochen know that the Great Food Country at this time was only speculating on this matter, not sensational, but definitely reasonable, and it was also philosophical to be careful about which region the Ten Thousand Year Ship was in.
Even if he wanted to ask Prince Tazi to come up with a detailed plan at this time, he couldn't come up with it, he just had an idea in his heart.
But there is one point, Antai has already taken action, this is an indisputable fact, in the road to the Great Food Country to set the eyeliner, it is an indisputable fact, the future development direction of the situation, completely depends on the results of Antai's attack on Shiguo, but also the lice on the monk's head - obvious!
