Chapter 155: Fanbang Mission
After Murong Bo was canonized as Khan, the situation he faced was still internal and external.
Internally, Murong Zun's forces were still not completely purged, and bad news came from the direction of Longde City - Murong Qian's rebels, with the support of the Tubo people, were reorganizing their armies and could start a large-scale civil war at any time.
This is not the worst news, Murong Bo is most worried that the Tubo people will directly send troops, and with Tuyuhun's current strength, he will not be able to resist the joint attack of the Tubo and the rebels.
At this time, he was discussing countermeasures with Prime Minister Hao Lianbot and others.
Murong Bo asked, "What countermeasures should be taken in the current situation?" ”
Ministers have put forward their opinions.
Hao Lianbot said: "Your opinions are very good, but I am afraid it will be difficult to resist the invasion of the Tubo people, and the only one who can stop the Tubo people is the Tang Kingdom."
Our Tuyuhun itself is a vassal state of the Tang Kingdom, and the minister suggested sending envoys to the Tang Kingdom for help. ”
Murong Bo said: "The words are good, but the life of the Tang Dynasty is not easy at present, is His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty willing to send troops for Tuyuhun?" ”
Hao Lianbot said: "The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the Tang Kingdom is strong, as long as it is willing to lend a hand, it will definitely be able to stop the Tubo people." ”
"Well, that's it. Who will be sent as an envoy? Murong Bo asked.
Hollenbot said, "The minister is willing to go." However, the minister can only serve as a deputy envoy, and the envoy must choose another person.
This candidate, Khan knows who it is. ”
Murong Bo understood, and he smiled: "Yes, it must be her." ”
Royal palace, harem.
"Ling'er, there is something I need you to go to Chang'an, I don't know if you are willing?" Murong Bo said.
As he spoke, he looked at Murong Ling and smiled.
Murong Ling said: "What's the matter, people just came back from Chang'an just now, and they want others to go, so I won't go." ”
Murong Bo sighed: "Forget it, I'll send someone else." With that, he stood up and prepared to go out.
"Wait a minute. Is there anything important to do when going to Chang'an? Murong Ling asked.
"Of course things are important, and you go the best, I'm afraid you can't do it with someone else. It's a pity that you don't want to go, so I have to send someone else. Murong Bo shook his head and said.
"People didn't say they wouldn't go, I just didn't want to see that hateful guy in Chang'an." Li You always jokes about fake couples, and Murong Ling said a little annoyed.
"That's good, you go, just don't see him." Murong Bo said with a smile.
Murong Ling said: "I'll go to Chang'an, it's good to meet Hamid, last time they helped us so much, I should go and thank them." You prepare some gifts, and I'll go. ”
Murong Bo smiled and said, "Okay, sister, I've worked hard for you." With that, he left.
Murong Ling sat at the head of the bed, looking at the window, but Li You's smiling face appeared in front of him, and said to himself: "Nasty guy, are you okay?" ”
Changan.
The weather is really clear, and Li Chunfeng's magic has once again become gossip on the streets of Chang'an.
After several days of sunny weather, and with proper control measures, the plague quickly dissipated.
Li Chengqian handled things very neatly this time, not only was he personally rewarded, but the list provided by Li You was also rewarded by the imperial court. These include Li Chunfeng, the president of the Chamber of Commerce, Jia Jinxian, Bai Hu, and some pharmacists.
In short, Li Chengqian and Li You were very satisfied with the handling of the plague incident this time.
Especially Li Chunfeng, who gained fame and fortune, actually won the reward of the third-class viscount and became a member of the Tang Dynasty nobles, which is definitely a big bull in the Taoist world.
Li Chunfeng just couldn't understand how Li You predicted this weather, and it was so accurate. There are too many magical things in Li You, and Li Chunfeng's biggest wish now is to be able to worship Li You as a teacher.
For a science fan like Li Chunfeng, Li You was really annoyed, so he had to give him a difficult problem from time to time, and he couldn't explain it thoroughly, so he let him figure it out by himself.
……
The Tibetan mission finally arrived in Chang'an.
Tang Fei, the secretary of Honglu Temple, received the Tibetan envoys and settled their residences, so he went to report to Zhongshu Province and asked Cen Wenwen to tell His Majesty.
Out of Chengtianmen, he remembered something.
Long before he went to Tuyuhun to hold a canonization ceremony for Murong Bo, Li You greeted him, and he must tell him all the news about Tuyuhun and the Tubo people.
Tang Fei admired Li You very much, although he didn't know what he was going to do, but he knew that Li You must have an important purpose in doing things, so he went to the Ministry of Rites, met Yin Hongzhi, and asked him to inform Li You.
When Li You received the news, he felt a great headache.
Lu Dongzan was a remarkable figure, far more intelligent than ordinary people, and once served as the Dalun (prime minister) and regent of Tibet.
Lu Dongzan in history can be said to be the nemesis of the Tang Dynasty. First of all, he suggested that Songtsen Gampo make peace with the Tang Dynasty and marry Princess Wencheng. Using the advanced culture of the Tang Dynasty brought by Princess Wencheng, the development of Tibet was accelerated.
After the death of Songtsen Gampo, he served as the regent, annexed Tuyuhun, and defeated the Tang army, seizing a large area of Tang Dynasty territory, including the four towns of Qiuci and Shule in the Tang Dynasty, and expanding the power of Tubo to the east and connecting with Liang, Song, Mao, Fu and other prefectures; Tianzhu to the south; west to the Tianshan Mountains; The northern Turks became a great empire with a land of more than 10,000 miles.
The Tang Dynasty was helpless against Tibet.
Li You knew this history, and as a child of the Li family, he had to take care of it.
Li You said to the messenger: "When you go back, tell my uncle, and ask him to pay close attention to the affairs of the Tibetan mission, and come and report to me at any time." ”
Early Dynasty, Taiji Palace.
Tang Fei, the secretary of Honglu Temple, came out and said: "Your Majesty, the Tibetan envoys have asked to submit their credentials, when do you see when you will meet them?" ”
Li Shimin was angry at the attack on the Tang army by the Tibetans, and said: "I don't want to meet them, let them go back." ”
Tang Jian, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, said: "Your Majesty, no matter how unbearable the Tubo people are, they are guests from afar, and I am a big country in the Tang Dynasty, so I can't lose my courtesy."
The minister suggested that you might as well listen to what they have to say and then deal with it. ”
General Li Jing said: "Your Majesty, the minister agrees with Lord Tang's opinion, listen to what their plans are, and judge what their military intentions are." ”
Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, the minister also agrees with Lord Tang's opinion. However, the minister's opinion was that His Majesty would not receive them for the time being, and that he would send someone to contact them first to find out their intentions. ”
Li Shimin nodded and said, "Just do what Fang Xuanling said." Who will come into contact with the Tibetans? ”
Li Tai, the king of Wei, said; "Father, please ask for your son's life, and your son's minister will be responsible for this matter."
Li Tai originally pursued Taoguang and cultivated obscurity, but recently saw Li Ke envoy Tuyuhun and Li Chengqian to prevent and control the plague, and he couldn't help but come out to show it.
Li Shimin liked Li Tai the most, and immediately smiled: "Okay, let Li Tai, the king of Wei, be in charge of this matter." ”
"The retainers obey." Li Tai said.
Honglu Temple Guest House.
After the early dispersal of the dynasty, Li Tai, accompanied by Tang Fei, came to the guest house of Honglu Temple and met with the Tibetan delegation.
