Making friends is a good thing, Li Su never refuses to make any friends, except for those who don't pay attention to personal hygiene.

When Lu Dongzan asked to make Li Su a friend, to be honest, Li Su's heart refused. Because the hygiene habits of the Tibetan people are really ......

From the first meeting to the present, Li Su has been trying to keep a distance from Lu Dongzan, I really can't stand the smell of him, but I can't show it too obviously, after all, every conversation and expression between him and Lu Dongzan represents the relationship and attitude between the two countries.

Of course, there are other reasons not to dare to treat him as a friend.

Lu Dongzan is a native of Tubo, Li Su is a native of the Tang Dynasty, the battle to recover Songzhou, Li Su is a key figure, because of his existence, the Songzhou city occupied by Tubo was unexpectedly lost, the Tang army pursued all the way, deep into the territory of Tubo for thousands of miles, attacking the city and plundering the village, killing countless people, Songtsan Gampo just took the throne and suffered this defeat, that battle almost made the large and small nobles in Tubo rise up to make Songtsan Gampo reversed, East Laxi fought, it took several years to gradually re-consolidate the monarch's position, in general, Li Su's existence, Songtsen Gampo and Lu Dongzan were very embarrassed and brought them big trouble, it can be said that Li Su is the enemy of the entire Tubo, the kind that can't relieve his hatred even if he chops 10,000 knives.

Now the Tibetan minister in front of him actually smiled and said that he wanted to make friends with the enemies of Tibet, to be honest, Li Su didn't dare to make this friend, he couldn't afford it.

Making friends depends on the object, everyone will always make a lot of friends in their life, really rational people will classify all their friends, for Li Su, who is a little greedy for money, some friends belong to the bankrupt type, that is, when they encounter difficulties, everyone can go bankrupt and lend money to each other to tide over the difficulties, some belong to forty or fifty thousand or twenty or thirty thousand friends, beyond this limit it will hurt feelings, and some belong to the wine and meat friends, it doesn't matter if they eat and drink together, The meager friendship never includes solving even the slightest difficulty and trouble for the other party, once there is something to ask him, he will be blocked immediately.

As for the Tibetan prime minister in front of him who was anxious to make friends with Li Su, Li Su was not very interested.

It's too polite, as soon as they meet, they will talk about praise and pursuit, and the sugar-coated cannonballs will be poured out towards Li Su one after another as if they don't want money, the more Li Su listens, the more alert he becomes, so polite, he can't see when the other party will choose to stab himself in the back.

"Xiaguan also likes to make friends, the invitation of the minister, the lower official is very honored, and the lower official and the prime minister will be friends in the future......" Li Su's expression was very sincere, revealing a strong sincerity from the inside out.

Lu Dongzan smiled: "Since you and I are friends, why do you still call such things as 'big minister' and 'lower official'?" I still have a lot of troubles in Chang'an, how about you and I as brothers in the future? ”

Li Su smiled, and took the opportunity to bow his hand to Lu Dongzan: "Foolish brother Li Zizheng, I have seen Brother Lu." ”

Lu Dongzan's face froze: "Lu ...... Brother Lu? ”

With a few smacks of his lips, Lu Dongzan seemed to want to explain that although his name is Lu Dongzan, he is not surnamed "Lu", but seeing Li Su's sincere smiling face, Lu Dongzan decided to follow the customs.

"Brother Lu, Brother Lu, Brother Zizheng is polite." Lu Dongzan smiled and said.

Li Su laughed a few times, and then the two fell silent.

said that they were friends, but they were really unfamiliar, I don't know what topics to talk about, the two countries should be brought to the court to talk to Li Shimin, Li Su put it bluntly, is to accompany the tour guide.

Thinking of accompanying the tour guide, Li Su found that he had finally found the topic, so he began to chat with Lu Dongzan about the customs and customs of the Tang Dynasty, from silk to porcelain, from the dazzling array of specialty goods on the market, to the goal of the Tang Dynasty is the sea of stars, etc., Lu Dongzan has been smiling and listening to Li Sutian's nonsense in the north and south, taking advantage of Li Su's rest, Lu Dongzan smiled and said: "Listen to the words of the virtuous brother, the foolish brother has greatly increased his knowledge, if the virtuous brother is flawed these days, can you lead the foolish brother to walk around Chang'an City and appreciate the style of the capital of the Tang Dynasty?" ”

Li Su smiled and said: "What Brother Lu invited, the foolish brother will not refuse." ”

***************************************************

Saying goodbye and walking out of the Sifang Pavilion, it was almost dusk, Li Su sighed, he found that his ability to talk nonsense had improved a little more, and he talked endlessly for an afternoon, hoping that Lu Dongzan would have fun in Chang'an and leave quickly, otherwise Li Su would take on this laborious errand, which would be a great torture for himself.

What's more, Li Su's father-in-law is still locked up in the prison of the Criminal Department, Xu Mingzhu and his mother-in-law wash their faces with tears at home every day, and they are busy rescuing, so they really can't muster up the energy to hang out and chat with a foreign minister who doesn't know what to say.

So Li Su made a decision the moment he walked out of the Sifang Pavilion, these days he simply threw the newly recognized Brother Lu in the Sifang Pavilion and ignored it, and he seized the time to find a way to save his father-in-law, Datang's life is so fast, everyone is so busy, don't hurt each other.

…………

Lu Dongzan stood under the edge of the corridor, quietly watching Li Su's figure disappear from the gate, and the smile on the corner of his mouth never faded.

At the corner under the corridor, a burly figure quietly approached, stood behind Lu Dongzan and saluted, and said softly: "Prime minister, this official of the Tang Dynasty seems to be quite wary of us Tubo......"

Lu Dongzan didn't look back, and said with a smile: "Laza, you are the deputy envoy of our Tubo Mission, and you are responsible for picking up the princess of the Tang Dynasty and her relatives, don't you know the name of this person?" ”

The man named Raza hesitated for a moment and said, "This person is the culprit who caused my Tubo to lose Songzhou." ”

Lu Dongzan shook his head and sighed: "As the deputy envoy to the Tang State, if you only know this little bit about the monarchs and ministers of the Tang State, the prime minister has to say that you are not worthy of being this deputy envoy." ”

Raza hung his head and said in fear: "Raza knows his mistake, please give me advice." ”

Lu Dongzan lowered his head and looked at his hands.

His hands are very delicate, and compared to other Tibetans, his hands are still very clean, Li Su dislikes him and is really a bit nitpicky.

In the emperor's heart, Li Su's future position is roughly equivalent to the current right servant shooting the eldest grandson Wuji, and he is the most important and trusted courtier around the emperor, so we can't take it lightly. In the future, if there is a war between Tibet and the Tang Kingdom, I am afraid that it will be difficult to deal with this person in the court. ”

Raza hesitated for a moment and said, "But Your Majesty heard that Li Su and the prince of Tang seem to have a grudge, if the emperor dies in the future and the prince ascends the throne, how can Li Su become the most important and trusted courtier of the new emperor?" ”

Lu Dong sighed in praise and said: "You are derelict in your duties again, now the prince of Tang is unethical and derelict in his deeds, and there are many disobedience and cruelty in his words and deeds, whether it is the court or the people of Tang State, there are rumors that the prince is about to be deposed, and the rumors are naturally not fully believed, but it is certain that the emperor of Tang must have the heart of Yi Chu, haven't you heard that the prince of Tang has asked to see the emperor many times, and the emperor has not seen him, the father and son have not seen each other for half a year, last month Tang State four snow disasters, hundreds of thousands of displaced people flocked to Chang'an, according to the rules of Tang State, The prince should have come forward on behalf of the emperor to appease the displaced people, but the emperor did not send the prince out of the city, the hint of this matter is obvious, the emperor of the Tang State is afraid that he is already very dissatisfied with the prince, and the so-called Yi Chu theory of the court and the people is not groundless, maybe it will not be long before we can hear the news of the change of ownership of the East Palace. ”

Raza nodded convincingly: "Daxiang is far away in Tibet, but he knows things thousands of miles away when he pinched his fingers, and his subordinates admire it." ”

Lu Dongzan Zhengse said: "Tubo and Tang are both powerful countries in the world, the so-called one mountain does not tolerate two tigers, the two countries will have a war in the future, the ancient military sages of the Central Plains once said, 'The husband did not fight and the temple is counted as the winner, and it is counted as much', before the war, all the internal and external intelligence and insider information of the enemy, we must check it clearly, grasp more of an insider, and we will have a better chance of winning in the future war. ”

"So the prime minister deliberately befriended Li Su, which is also the reason?"

Lu Dongzan smiled: "Not exactly, Benxiang is just very curious about this young man of the Tang Kingdom, I want to know what skills he has, can make the Emperor of the Tang Kingdom value him so much, I heard that this person loves cleanliness very much, and is a little greedy for money, if it is possible to buy him, it is not a good thing for Tubo, not to mention, before entering Chang'an City, Benxiang received a message from the spies lurking in the city, Li Su, there is a trouble now, and it is a life lawsuit, this lawsuit is getting bigger and bigger, Benxiang wants to see what Li Su has to reverse the contrarian trend and prove his innocence. ”

*************************************************************

Li Su is currently unable to prove his innocence.

It seems like a simple life lawsuit, but it is actually very troublesome. The Criminal Department and Dali Temple interrogated, and they could not find direct evidence of Xu Jingshan's murder, only knowing that the tea sold by Xu Jingshan was poisoned.

And Li Su, he couldn't find evidence that Xu Jingshan didn't kill anyone, after all, a living person died, and the family of the deceased insisted that Xu Jingshan was the biggest murder suspect, and Xu Jingshan and Li Su had no argument.

Not only that, but this matter also caused trouble in the court, not only involved a servant of the criminal department, but also many officials of the six ministries of the three provinces were summoned for questioning, and now, it is not just a homicide case, whether Li Shimin used this case as an excuse to play the idea of achieving a certain political goal, it is unknown, Li Su is actually carefully observing and probing, his eyes are firmly fixed on Li Shimin.

It is Li Su's masterpiece to make things so far, he is not sure that Li Shimin does not know whether he did it, and he is not sure whether the criminal servant Han You was imprisoned, whether it was Li Shimin's acquiescence, or he was also kept in the dark, Li Shimin made a big show to carry out this civil murder case, whether there was any other purpose, if Li Su wanted to make this case bigger, would it anger Li Shimin, or would it be in line with the holy will, the two monarchs and ministers silently cooperated to have a small court cleansing......

A homicide case involves too many things, too deep, and too dangerous, and every step Li Su takes now seems to be stepping on a very thin piece of ice, and maybe the next step will be the whole person falling into the ice cave and freezing to death.

Chang'an City wandered around for a whole day, at sunset, the officials of the fang banged the gong and shouted to close the door, beckoning the people and merchants to return home and return to the store, Li Su stepped on the sound of gongs and drums, and led Fang Lao Wu and others out of the city slowly.

…………

Taiping Village.

Wu stood in a remote corner more than 20 zhang away from the gate of the Li family, his expression hesitant and hesitant, wanting to enter and stop.

She wanted to walk generously to the door of Li's house, and generously told the department on duty that the Wu family wanted to see Li Houye.

In fact, all actions can be generous, because the Wu clan asked to see Li Su this time, and there was no unsightly purpose.

However, she still didn't dare.

Standing in the dark corner in the distance outside the door, Wu had been wandering for more than an hour, and for more than an hour, she kept pacing and struggling in the corner, wearing a black and white robe swaying with the swing and twist of her body, no matter how she looked, she looked like a young girl who had a tryst with her lover under the moon.

I can't say why it's so sneaky, Wu just didn't dare to step forward, after meeting Li Su, Wu inexplicably had a fear of Li Su, whenever she recalled the meeting, Li Su looked at her gaze, his eyes were clear and bright, in the dark night still like two clear and visible spiritual springs, without the slightest impurity, but that slightly smiling gaze, but Wu still thinks back uncomfortable.

Yes, those smiling eyes made the Wu clan sincerely afraid.

Under the gaze of that gaze, Wu felt that all his calculations and scheming had been seen through by him, and he had seen through it, that kind of look, like an adult condescending and smiling at the tricks played by children, so childish and ridiculous, not worth it.

Therefore, today, the Wu clan stood far away outside the door of the Li family, hesitated for more than an hour, and did not make up his mind whether he should come forward to ask for a meeting.

She wanted a chance, but she was also afraid of those eyes. (To be continued.) )
