Put down the watering kettle in his hand, and invited Niu Jinda to sit down, Li Zheng poured a cup of hot water and said: "This place is simple, there is nothing to entertain, and I hope General Niu will not be surprised." ”

Niu Jinda took a sip of hot water and said, "Have you heard about the affairs of the DPRK and China?" ”

"I heard."

Niu Jinda continued: "Recently, many people in the DPRK and China have said that they want to release Lu Dongzan, do you think they should be released? ”

Li Zheng drank hot water and said, "It should be put in." ”

"Sure enough, even you think so."

Speaking of words, seeing that Niu Jinda's expression was not too good.

"General Niu, what's wrong with you?"

Niu Jinda said with emotion: "Li Zheng, it is not easy for Datang to have the current situation, once Lu Dongzan returns to Tubo, do you know the stakes?" Lu Dongzan was arrested by you at the beginning. ”

"The general seems worried?"

"Can the old man not be worried?"

Li Zheng smiled recklessly, "Actually, it's nothing to put it back, the most important thing is how to put it in, how to put it away, of course, you can't put it back easily." ”

Niu Jinda swept away the previous haze, and said with a smile: "The old man knows that you kid has a way. ”

"I can't say how to do it, so it depends on whether the DPRK and China use it."

Niu Jinda took another sip of hot water, "You can tell me what the method is first." ”

"Of course, Lu Dongzan can't be let go easily, if you want to return to Tibet, you can, but Tubo must come up with conditions."

Niu Jinda said: "For example, let Tubo and the Tang Dynasty not commit any crimes in the future? ”

"Is this reliable? Presumably, General Niu himself didn't believe it. ”

Niu Jinda nodded, "It's really unreliable, many officials in the court have advocated letting Lu Dongzan go." ”

"Of course, let it go, Datang promised to release Lu Dongzan for the sake of decency, you can't let people go easily, you can't let it go in vain."

"What's that saying?" Niu Jinda asked.

Li Zheng paced back and forth and said: "Lu Dongzan is an important minister of Tubo, but Lu Dongzan knows the city defense of the Tang Dynasty, and they all say that letting him go back is to let the tiger return to the mountain, and Songtsan Gampo naturally knows the importance of Lu Dongzan, in this case, we might as well make a sky-high price and give money to release people." ”

"Blackmail?"

Niu Jinda thought about it, this seemed a little unauthentic.

"General Niu's words are wrong, how can it be said that it is blackmail, we are for peace, it is bail, not blackmail."

Niu Jinda thought to himself, "What is the bail bond?" Why do you doll talk so strangely? ”

"Bail is a kind of security deposit to temporarily release the sinner, first of all, the person is still guilty, but the other party pays the deposit and can be released temporarily, and Dali Temple can re-arrest the person for trial at any time, referred to as bail pending trial."

Niu Jinda pondered carefully, "So there is still such a practice?" ”

Li Zheng took the boiled water, clinked bowls with Niu Jinda, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Of course people can put it, this is a good opportunity for us to make a big profit in Datang." ”

Niu Jinda nodded, "It seems that many old guys in Chang'an are not as smart as you as a doll, and the old man's land was not given to you in vain." ”

"General Niu is polite."

"According to what you said, Lu Dongzan can be released, but Tubo has to take out the money?"

Li Zheng whispered: "You can offer a huge price, and by the way, all the land south of Qinghai will be allocated to Datang, saying that it is temporarily seized." ”

"Qinghai!" Niu Jinda gasped, and after taking Qinghai in Tibet, he mastered the largest water source in Tibet, "I didn't expect your kid's eyes to be so vicious." ”

"This sounds like a curse, so I'll be praising me as General Niu."

Niu Jinda smiled and said: "The so-called bail money, Datang really has no such precedent. ”

Li Zheng nodded and said: "Temporarily release people to freedom, but the crime is still confirmed, he Lu Dongzan is still a thief who steals the military defense of the Tang Dynasty, let people like him eat and drink in Dali Temple all day long, it is better to exchange money for land, what does General Niu think?" ”

Niu Jinda quieted down, "Offering a sky-high bail money, it depends on whether Songtsen Gampo thinks Lu Dongzan is worth the money, and takes the opportunity to take advantage of the other party's weakness to make a big deal, Li Zheng, it's a pity for a person like you to be a civil official, you should be a military general." ”

Why did Niu Jinda even say this, Li Zheng took a sip of hot tea.

Niu Jinda stood up satisfied, "You're right, people still have to let it go, if you don't let it go, we Datang will lose an opportunity to slaughter Tubo, how to let it go, or our Datang has the final say." ”

Back in Chang'an, Niu Jinda immediately wrote a book.

Coming to the Ganlu Palace, Niu Jinda saluted Li Shimin.

Li Shimin could more or less guess the meaning of Niu Jinda, and said: "Jinda, do you want to talk about Lu Dongzan." ”

Niu Jinda raised the recital above his head and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has a book to play." ”

Seeing that Niu Jinda had a clear look, Li Shimin opened his mouth and said, "Hand it over." ”

After taking a look at Niu Jinda's expression, the court has been arguing over Lu Dongzan's affairs these days.

Li Shimin opened the recital and looked at it, "Bail money? ”

"Yes, bail." Niu Jinda nodded.

Niu Jinda is low-key on weekdays, and he will not interfere in many things, and he is also a general who keeps his head down and works hard.

Many times when Niu Jinda thinks about something, he will seem very stubborn.

Li Shimin looked at the content of the recital, originally with a sad face, but now when he saw the three words bail, his thoughts were inexplicably cheerful.

Then he asked, "What kind of charter is the bail bond you mentioned in your book?" And you were against releasing Lu Dongzan at the beginning, and now you say that you should release it in the notebook? ”

"Your Majesty's ministers think that Lu Dongzan can be put but can't be put easily, and the ministers didn't think about it for a while, which made Your Majesty smile."

Li Shimin glanced at the content of the chapter again, "You tell me what is going on with this bail bond." ”

Niu Jinda said: "Lu Dongzan's sin is unforgivable, because he is a foreign minister, and people can let him go, but the sin cannot be avoided. ”

Li Shimin had a general idea in his heart.

summoned Fang Xuanling to discuss with Du Ruhui and discuss the specific details.

On the second day, the court meeting was held again.

is still discussing whether to release Lu Dongzan.

Niu Jinda stood in front of the court and expressed his opinion on the bail bond.

As soon as the words came out of the court, they quieted down, and they were all pondering the truth.

People can put it, but they can't put it in vain.

And he has to come to Chang'an at any time to be tried, if Lu Dongzan does not return to Dali Temple, it is a violation of the laws of the Tang Dynasty, and he can be arrested.

Once the troops are dispatched, it is to start a war with the Tang Dynasty.

This back and forth, Datang immediately turned passive into active, and even had a reason to go to war.

Li Shimin liked the idea very much.

At least Datang not only takes the lead, but also takes the initiative.

And he also has a very long face, and he doesn't give people a tongue.

Li Shimin immediately replied to the envoy of Tubo, taking Qinghai as the boundary, including Qinghai, to hand over to the Tang Dynasty, and also to pay 500,000 yuan in bonds.
