The Tibetan envoys came to the Great Sui on the orders of Langri Zanpu, with two purposes, one was to compete with Zhangxiong and gain the support of the Great Sui first, and the other was to ask the Great Sui for marriage on behalf of Langri Zanpu.

Asking for marriage from the Great Sui is a game-breaking strategy that Langri Zampu thought of, once successful, he can use the momentum of the Great Sui to deter people who are not convinced internally, so Langri Zampu did not resist. After all, the Great Sui is the first power today, the Han people have been standing on the Middle Earth for thousands of years, the leaders are crowded, and the world is watched, even the proud and conceited Langri Zampu, although he dreams of occupying the land of the Great Sui, but also thinks that the Tubo, which has not yet been truly integrated, can attack the city and plunder the land, and the troops will be directed at Luoyang to subvert the Great Sui Dynasty.

He knew that Middle-earth was too big, and the Han people were also very strong, such as Donghu, Gourong, Qianghu, Xiongnu, Rouran, and Turkic were all strong for a while, dominating the grassland desert, but they never had a way to completely occupy the Central Plains, and no matter how strong Tubo was, it could not compare to these Hu tribes who left a name in history.

Why did the Han people prosper for a long time?

He and other wise men believed that it was not because of the vast territory, large population, and innumerable amount of money and food in Middle-earth, but because of the long civilization and exquisite skills.

Since the beginning of the three kings and five emperors, the Han people have inherited the essence of their ancestors, and now, they have long been broad and profound, the army of the Han people has military regulations and military orders, and the subjects of the Han people are bound by laws. Although there are also restraint orders, they are all shoddy, and it is difficult to compare with the Great Sui.

Therefore, the greatest intention of Langri Zampu is to covet the advanced civilization of the Great Sui, and the fox and the tiger are secondary, if you get the treasures inherited by the Han people for thousands of years and thousands of years of turnips, then the Tubo Kingdom will be able to avoid thousands of years of detours, and suddenly it will be at the same level as the Great Sui civilization...... These are all lacking in Tibet, and each of them can make Tibet's national strength rise sharply.

The Han people have always been extremely generous, especially those "great Confucians" who are full of benevolence and morality and promote the idea of the kingdom, and they treat their citizens with strict criminal laws on the one hand and moral restraint on the other, making the people like lambs who are driven by their slavery; But in dealing with foreigners, one or two profess to preach edification and show charity, and they will give whatever they want, if they only have to grovel a little and say a few words of flattery.

But after arriving in the Great Sui, Lu Dongzan found that the Great Sui monarchs and ministers and Confucians were not as arrogant as Zampu and Da Lun thought, and these people paid more attention to tangible interests, thinking that the Great Sui Library would have these, but when he went to look inside, he found that most of them were poetry collections, Analects and other things that teach people to be good, these things have no effect at all in the short term, and they do not conform to the national conditions of Tibet, so if you want to get the true essence of Han civilization and books that can help Tubo's national strength rise rapidly, you still need to take the official road.

And the death of the prince was a strategy that Lu Dongzan came up with, in order to get the Great Sui to give an explanation, so as to occupy the initiative in the negotiations.

……

Early the next morning, the news of the death of the Tibetan prince reached Yang Tong's ears, and at the same time, the dialogue between the real prince and Lu Dongzan was also recorded by the proficient Tubo language and Chinese characters.

"Tubo, what a good idea, even the death of the prince was made, but they don't know that I am not the kind of person who likes to be held hostage."

After a long time, Yang Tong spoke, he looked at Ling Jing and Yin Mingyue who were standing on the side, and finally looked at Ling Jing and asked: "I let the Black Ice Platform develop outside the territory back then, and asked the Black Ice Platform to touch the bottom of all the large and small ethnic groups around the Great Sui, and Tubo is one of the key objects of attention, let's talk about the situation in Tubo." ”

"Back to the Holy Place, after the Tubo State divided the party with Tuyuhun, it experienced a coup d'état half a year ago, and the country was very chaotic." Ling Jing bowed.

"Coup d'état?" Yang Tong asked with interest, "What is the specific situation?" ”

"I don't know the specifics, but that's pretty much it!" Ling Jing had already worded, and said eloquently: "Langri Zampu is the thirty-second Zampu of Tubo, and he is a very talented leader of Tubo, before Langri Zampu, there were dozens of large and small countries and countless tribes on the Tubo Plateau, and after he inherited the throne, he wiped out these small tribes and small countries one by one in a few years, and united the strength of many countries and tribes to create a brilliant Tubo Kingdom. It snowballed and grew bigger and bigger, wiped out the Subi tribe, unified the Tibetan Plateau, and became the monarch of the Tibetan tribes from the head of a small state in the southern part of the mountain. And these countries and tribes that were once enemies of him have become eagle dogs, and Langri Zampu is using this as a battle to dominate the four key regions of the eight directions, and he is invincible, but in the end, it is some wall grass that is trending towards profit, and it will eat himself at any time. ”

"The nobles and tribal leaders of the small kingdoms in the past, now they have become the Tibetan nobles, and they are subservient to the force and majesty of Langri Zampu in the form of an alliance, but these people still have their own armies and lands, and they have gained a lot of battles in the process of following Langri Zampu, and they have profited from the war, so they are very willing to follow the victorious Langri Zampu to fight, and with the help of the power of the former Subi nobles such as Shangnang, Qi Zanggu, Ba Yuzebu, and Nong Zhongbo, he annexed the Jiqu River valley and gave them lands and slaves. In this way, the status of the new aristocracy surpassed that of the previous nobility, and the royal power was greatly strengthened. However, it also violated the interests of the old nobles, causing the dissatisfaction of the old Tibetan ministers, so they were resentful. These old nobles rallied together in a coup d'état in an attempt to overthrow him. However, their rebellion was unsuccessful and was suppressed. ”

"It seems that Tibet has a similar problem to us! All in order to overthrow the old gate valve and door aristocracy. Yang Tong said with a smile.

In the past few years, he has also paid a lot of attention to Tibet, knowing that it is a tribal alliance similar to the Turks, and Langri Zampu is nominally the king of Tibet, but in fact he is closer to the leader of the entire alliance. Therefore, when he reused the newly joined alliance tribes to strengthen the royal power, he was resisted by the old tribes, and the internal situation was not optimistic.

Over the years, the Great Sui has continued to grow, but with the current situation, the Great Sui wants to fight the past, not to mention the gains, not to mention the losses, even if it is really defeated, there is no energy to govern for the time being, rather than spending time and effort to collect, it is better to let them themselves be in civil strife because of the distribution of interests.

This Dazan Gampo, who faked his death in the Great Sui, Yang Tong doesn't know very well.

But for Langri Zampu's other son - Songtsan Gampo is familiar, later generations often say that Songtsan Gampo is a powerful figure, unified the Tubo Dynasty, but in fact, the real cause of the unification of Tubo is actually his father, Langri Zampu will be various countries, tribes into the Tubo system, even after his death, all parts are scattered, but in name, these tribal countries are still Tubo, the truth is just like the current Sui, Tang, Wei, Chu, although everyone is independent, in fact, they are all Chinese people, And Songtsen Gampo is exactly like Yang Dong, who inherited the wealth of the Great Sui Dynasty. Therefore, after Songtsen Gampo came to power, what he did was to reunify the interior, and then he began to design and establish the political system of Tibet.

First of all, he established a new system dominated by royal power, which naturally suppressed the old aristocratic forces and fostered new nobles who obeyed him. Secondly, after dealing with the problems of the old and new forces, Songtsen Gampo set about designing a new dynastic system. Specifically, it is to first imitate the Zhangzhung script to establish the Tibetan script, and imitate the Central Plains official system, laws, and weights and measures. As a result, Tibet has changed from a loose confederation of slave tribes to a country with a complete system, and later generations often say that Songtsen Gampo is the founder of the Tubo Dynasty, which refers more to the level of system construction, not only the unification of the territory.

In general, Langri Zampu father and son, one established the framework of the Tibetan system, and the other gave the Tibetan soul. To a certain extent, Langri Zampu is Qin Sui, and Songtsan Gampo is the Han and Tang dynasties in history.

Li Shimin in history married Princess Wencheng to Songtsen Gampo, and the dowry was very rich. Buddha statues, treasures, gold and jade bookcases, gold and jade ornaments. He also gave cooking food, brocade mattresses with various patterns and patterns, thirty and sixty volumes of classics, more than 300 kinds of divination classics, more than 60 kinds of works on the identification of good and evil, more than 60 kinds of works on construction and technology, more than 100 kinds of prescriptions for curing diseases, four kinds of medical treatises, five kinds of diagnostic methods, six kinds of medical instruments, all kinds of grains and turnip seeds, and so on.

As a result, Tubo suddenly obtained the cultural essence of the Central Plains for thousands of years, and this move allowed Tubo to develop beyond the times in the fields of politics, economy, culture, military, agriculture, industry, and medical care.

Later generations said it nicely and sang praises to Li Shimin for strengthening Sino-Tibetan friendly relations. But in fact, Li Shimin, who was so happy, raised a ferocious white-eyed wolf for future generations.

Because of the advanced culture of the Central Plains, Tubo was unprecedentedly strong, and became the most powerful rival of the Central Plains Dynasty.

Through the analysis of the content of the listening, Yang Tong knew that what Langri Zampu was going to do now was exactly the same as what his son had done in history, and he sent an envoy to Sui to ask for marriage, just like Songtsen Gampo marrying Princess Wencheng, with the same purpose as coveting the cultural essence of the Central Plains.

In addition to Tibet, the Wa Kingdom, which was far away in the sea, also obtained poems, agricultural books, Buddhist scriptures, historical books, medical classics, calendars, and construction and engineering skills from Li Shimin.

Today's Wa Kingdom, like the Tibetans, is in the era of slave society, and the gap between them and the Great Sui can be said to be worlds apart, but it is because they have been sent to the Central Plains six times to study, thus promoting social progress, leaping into the feudal era, and developing rapidly. Even the Wa Kingdom, which is far away in the sea, is still like this, and the surrounding alien races are naturally needless to say.

Of course, this does not mean that Li Shimin is short-sighted alone, in fact, Yang Guang has also done so. This is related to the characteristics of the whole era, and it is not an isolated case.

They think that this is to make the culture of the Celestial Empire widely spread, so that all the world can feel the wealth and strength of the Celestial Empire, simply think that this is also a kind of culture, should be taken out and shared, and the advanced knowledge of industry, agriculture, medicine and so on should be used to help others get rid of poverty and get rid of diseases, as if such an unreserved gift, in order to reflect the demeanor of a great country, they measure the alien race with the kind mentality of the Central Plains, and do not realize that the alien race will be incarnated into a wolf if they get the medicine of workers and peasants, until' The alien army of the division and the long skill of the Chinese army came to attack, and suffered a big loss, so that the ancient precept of 'not my race has a different heart'.

Yang Tong, who roughly guessed Tubo's intentions, did not say much, but changed into an official crown and imperial robe, and met with Zhangxiong and Tubo envoys in the Shengwu Palace. Not only the ten Shangshu of the three provinces, the twelve Wei generals, the twelve Wei generals, Siqing, but even the Wupin Jingguan and the weighty generals were also recruited.

After all, when it comes to the death of a country's 'prince', the representatives of various countries are watching and should treat it with an upright attitude. Therefore, not only the core civil and military forces of the Great Sui gathered, but also the envoys of Tubo and Zhangxiong, and even the monarchs and representatives of various countries were invited to participate.

This can also be regarded as a rehearsal for the upcoming Great Pilgrimage Meeting.

Ying Tianmen to the square in front of the temple of the Holy Martial Palace, 10,000 Xiaoguo troops are lined up on both sides, each Xiaoguo army is the latest ceremonial Mingguang armor, halberd, horizontal knife, not only gorgeous and beautiful, but also very strong and sharp, of course, these are honor guards, it is really on the battlefield, the equipment of the Xiaoguo army can definitely kill the elite division of the eleven legions!

"Holy! The kings and envoys of various countries have arrived outside the gate of Yingtian. "A Xiaoguo military captain entered the palace to report.

"Xuan!"

With Yang Tong's order, the solemn salute horn sounded, Yingtianmen opened with the salute number, and Zhang Xuanhe, the attendant of the Ministry of Rites, led the kings and deputies, and the principal and deputy envoys to enter Yingtianmen under the leadership of the Xuanjia Army, all the way into the Holy Martial Palace.

"Foreign ministers, see His Majesty the Sage Khan."

"Wechen see His Majesty the Sage Khan."

The representatives of various countries bowed loudly, and most of the people who could be envoys to the Great Sui knew some of the etiquette systems of the Central Plains, and they knew that the Great Sui was now received with national rites, which was the highest standard in the etiquette.

"No need to be polite!" Yang Tong stretched out his hand to help. Said loudly: "Give me a seat!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty the Holy Khan!"

After everyone got up, under the guidance of the officials of the Imperial History and the Ministry of Rites, they all found their seats.

Compared with the early dynasties after the Song Dynasty, the Great Sui was obviously much more humane.

It is said that in the early Ming Dynasty, in order to avoid being sooner or later, the minister had to get up at midnight and go around half of the capital to go to the noon gate, and he had to queue up from three o'clock in the morning until five o'clock before entering the palace. During this long wait, if someone coughs, spits, or walks unsteadily, they will be recorded by the imperial historian in charge of picketing. And the early dynasty of the Great Sui is much more casual, as long as you are not late, it will be fine, and after entering the palace, you will have your own seat. In addition, if you have enough time, you can also go to the side hall for breakfast first, this benefit was available before, but it was not made by Yang Tong.

For the large number of people in the early Sui Dynasty, the magnificent momentum, all the aliens were deeply shocked, when their eyes looked at the imperial case, neatly stacked two stacks, their hearts were curious, they all wanted to see how the Great Sui Emperor handled government affairs!
