But Guli Pei Luo simply ignored Su Hudong's embarrassed eyes.

Although he likes this daughter, he can even be said to be a little doting and conniving. But on the fundamental issue of xìng, Su Hudong could not resist.

If Su Hudong dared to fight with his father on such an occasion, Guli Peiluo would never spare her.

Su Hudong was indignant in his heart and gritted his teeth. Even though she is arrogant, she also knows that on this occasion, especially in front of Zhang Xuan, the governor of Longshuo, it is related to the state of Hui, and she cannot "act rashly". However, she also made up her mind on the spot, and when she went back to Hui this time, she would definitely run away from marriage again.

She needs to make her own decisions about her marriage, so why should she treat herself as a commodity and give it to whomever she wants?

Zhang Xuan glanced at Su Hudong with some embarrassment, and when he saw Su Hudong's somewhat indignant look, he knew that this little wild horse was not very happy to marry him, but how could he be willing?

Zhang Xuan looked back at Guli Peiluo and hesitated for a moment.

He knew that if he refused directly, he would definitely hurt the face of the Hui Khan, and directly proposed to dedicate his daughter to him as a concubine, which was already a great show of sincerity, and if he refused directly, it would be very impolite.

Khan was gracious, and Zhang Xuan understood it. But Zhang Xuan has already married a wife, so isn't he slacking off and wronging Princess Su Hudong?

Zhang Xuan politely declined, although the words were very tactful, but the meaning was very clear.

Zhang Xuan refused, and Su Hudong was overjoyed.

Keguli Peiluo is the Khan of Hui, since this has been said. , it is impossible to take it back, so he frowned and said, "My eldest husband's three wives and four concubines are looking for Chen, if the Metropolitan Governor does not give up, my little daughter will enter the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion to be a flat wife, and it will not be considered a grievance against her!" ”

Guli Pei Luo said this," Zhang Xuan was suddenly a little speechless. He groaned, his face a little complicated.

Guli Peiluo's words have all been said to this part, if he refuses again, it will obviously be directly slapped back to the face of the Khan Guli Peiluo. Can you really accept this little wild horse?

Zhang Xuan subconsciously glanced at Su Hudong again, and saw that her face was flushed, and her eyes were "fierce" glaring at herself, as if to imply that she must not nod and agree.

This time, the woman has some meaning," Zhang Xuan couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Ge Le saw Zhang Xuan's embarrassment and understood that Zhang Xuan had no thoughts about his little sister. But at the same time, his father Khan turned his face with Zhang Xuan because of this, breaking the friendly atmosphere that had just been established, if Zhang Xuan refused again, Guli Peiluo would definitely not be able to hang on face, and this visit would be dissolved.

Ge Le interjected with a smile, "Father Khan, I think so, the marriage between the two countries, the marriage between the princess and the governor of the capital is very important, you can report to the Tang Dynasty first, please ask His Royal Highness the Prince of the Prison State to decide!" ”

Goller gave a sè look at the bones.

Guli Peiluo stepped down and laughed, "Yes, that's it." I will invite His Royal Highness the Prince of the Tang Dynasty to make the decision, and Yucheng will be the master of this marriage. ”

Zhang Xuan smiled bitterly and arched his hand, "Khan really makes Zhang Xuan embarrassed!" ”

Under Zhang Xuan's repeated invitations, Guli Peiluo still took people to live in the Dadu Governor's Mansion, and nodded and agreed to stay in Lingzhou for a few more days, "to meet Princess Wanchun of the Tang Dynasty and the Prince of Tubo Chisong Dezan, who are about to arrive in Lingzhou."

Nominally, Zhang Xuan is still the ambassador of Tang Fan and pro, and he must start handling the affairs of Tang Fan and pro this time. It's just that Zhang Xuan, who is specifically responsible for the operation, knows Zhang Xuan's plan, but he just settles down in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion in a false manner, and Guli Peiluo called Gele to his room.

"Gele, you have to watch Su Hudong closely, don't let her cause any trouble for Ben Khan in Lingzhou." Guli Pei Luo yīn calmed his face and said in a deep voice.

"Father Khan, the little sister seems to be not very satisfied with this marriage, but the little sister is this kind of xìng affection" Just wait for me to persuade her two sentences. ”

"She's not happy yet? What is she not happy about! Ben Khan, for her marriage, the majesty of the Hui Khan will be swept away, ♀ Zhang Xuan's high power, "Controlling the military and political power of Longshuo is of great importance to my Hui Hui." Besides, this person is so young, he will definitely have a promising future in the future, she is married to Zhang Xuan, and I will have a way back in Datang in the future. ”

Guli Pei Luo snorted lightly, "This girl is not like words, it is all blamed for Ben Khan's excessive arrogance and cultivation, and she has developed this unruly xìng love." ”

"She's not happy, Ben Khan may not like her yet!" Guli Peiluo waved his hand a little annoyed, in fact, at this time, he regretted bringing up this matter.

As a Hui Khan, since he said it, he must consider his face and prestige as a khan. If Zhang Xuan refuses to be reconciled, how can he save face?

Ge Le smiled lightly, "Father Khan, I think that the marriage between Zhang Xuan and his little sister is feasible∨ the reason why Xuan refused his father's kindness in person, in the opinion of his son, should be because of Guo Ziyi."

"Guo Ziyi?" Guli Pei Luo frowned, and immediately realized, and couldn't help laughing......, I see, the Tang people's hearts and eyes are twisted and turned, and they are not happy! However, what you said also has some truth, this matter is not in a hurry, wait for Ben Khan to ask the Tang Dynasty court for a will, let the prince of the Tang Dynasty marry him. ”

Geller's meaning was clear.

This Su Hudong had a marriage contract with Guo Ziyi's second son Guo Yang before, because Su Hudong resisted marriage, there were many incidents, and Guo Yang almost lost his head: Su Hudong's marriage contract with Guo Yang has just been dissolved, if at this time, Zhang Xuan agrees to marry Su Hudong again, how should he face his subordinate Guo Ziyi?

On the afternoon of 15 June, Feng Chong led 10,000 soldiers and horses to finally arrive in Lingzhou. By this time, the garrison of Lingzhou had reached more than 40,000 people. And Zhou Xuchu led 2,000 people to escort Princess Wanchun's friendly team, and he has only arrived in Shuofang City at present.

At this point, Zhang Xuan's henchmen team has really taken shape, and they are all in place.

Zhang Xuan was in charge of the administrative affairs of Longshuo Metropolitan Governor's Mansion Richenyi and Longshuo Town, taking into account the military horses, and taking Zhou Xuchu as a faint hand.

Feng Chong, as the deputy governor of Longshuo, controlled the financial and logistical power of Longshuo, and used Cui Jin and Chen Tong as dumb hands.

Li Guangbi led an army of 40,000 to guard the front line of Hejiao, on the one hand, to resist Tubo, on the other hand, to take advantage of the opportunity, ready to listen to Zhang Xuan's military orders at any time, to seize the hometown of Tuyuhun with lightning speed, and to advance the entire Hejiao Prefecture to the direction of Tubo for 300 miles.

Guo Ziyi was in charge of more than 40,000 guards and horses in Lingzhou and became Zhang Xuan's important assistant in the military. When it comes to the military strategy of marching and fighting, Feng Chong and Zhang Xuan are slightly deficient compared to Guo Ziyi.

In Zhang Xuan's far-reaching planning and layout, Li Guangbi was his main general against Tubo, while Guo Ziyi was the main general who assisted him in passing through the interior of the feudal town and guarding against An Lushan's army.

The 12,000 Jingshi Yu Linwei brought by Feng Chong was renamed the "Shence Army" as a whole, and was temporarily in charge of Zhang Xuan. Xiao Shisanlang, Lei Wanchun, and Nan Wuyun all served in the Shence Army, and they were all Lang generals.

Zhang Xuan's most trusted is Xiao Shisanlang, but although Xiao Shisanlang is strong in martial arts, he doesn't know anything about the art of leading the army in arranging troops, and it is difficult to be the best general to plan the army, Zhang Xuan chose Nanwuyun. Although Nanwuyun is young, he is brave and resourceful, and his archery skills are extraordinary, and with a little experience and training, he is a general of Guo Zili. It's just that because of Nanwuyun's shallow qualifications, Zhang Xuan is temporarily the main general of the Shence Army.

As for the former Yulin Wei Zhonglang General Gu Xi, he has been transferred by Zhang Xuan to Shuo Fang, leading 10,000 troops, and becoming the thunder hand of Shuo Fang's soldiers and horses to command the servant Gu Huaien. Shuo Fang currently has close to 30,000 soldiers and horses, and Zhang Xuan is not ready to call them, after all, he still has to guard against An Lushan in the east.

At noon on June 18, Zhang Xuan held a banquet in the main hall of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and the banquet was a big banquet for Longshuo's civil and military subordinates and Feng Chong and others. Also present at the banquet were the Hui Khan Guli Peiluo, the prince Gele and the little princess Su Hudong who were in Lingzhou.

Guo Ziyi, Zhang Xuan and other Lingzhou civil and military officials sat there and waited quietly, and after a while, they heard dense footsteps and narration at the entrance of the hall, and everyone got up to greet them.

Zhang Xuan accompanied the Hui Khan Guli Peiluo, Gele, and Su Hudong into the main hall together, and behind him were the generals of the Fengchang Half and other Shence Army.

Guo Ziyi and Zhang Xuan led everyone to bow down and bowed, "The last general (lower official) and others will meet the Metropolitan Governor and Hui Khan!" ”

Zhang Xuan waved his hand: "Everyone, no courtesy!" ”

Zhang Xuan returned to his seat, gave up his seat to Guli Peiluo and others, and after the Hui people sat down, he got up and looked around at everyone and smiled loudly, "Everyone, today is the handsome banquet, one is to welcome Hui Khan and Prince Gele, His Royal Highness Princess Su Hudong, and the other is to welcome Lord Feng and his entourage!" ”

"Lord Feng is the governor of Longshuo who is ordained by the imperial court, and the Longshuo soldiers and horses are the first to transport the envoys" Zhang Xuan said this, and glanced at Feng Chong, who quickly got up and greeted Guo Ziyi and other "local" generals.

Zhang Xuan said a few opening remarks, and was about to wave his hand to announce the start of the banquet, when suddenly there was a sound of hurried footsteps at the entrance of the hall, and then a soldier shouted, "Report to the governor, report to the prefecture urgently"

The corners of Zhang Xuan's mouth twitched slightly, and he said in his heart: Is it finally here? The curtain of this drama has finally opened!

As soon as he thought of this, he waved his hand resolutely, "Pass!" ”

A dusty soldier walked into the hall, knelt on one knee on the ground, and hurriedly said, "Report to the governor of the capital, the second prince of Tubo, Stanley, led the Tubo cavalry to cross the Chiling, known as 100,000 soldiers and horses, and successively captured the two cities of the city and the degree, and took the eight military fortresses such as the White Horse Camp, Huangshui, and Stone Fort, and the defenders of the city were defeated, and Zhonglang General Ma Teng led the remnants of the army to retreat to the state. ”

As soon as the soldier finished the report, everyone present, including Hui Khan Guli Peiluo, suddenly changed their faces and gasped.

Tang Fan and relatives have not yet ended, why did the Tubo people raise swords against the Tang Dynasty? Such a large-scale invasion of the territory of the Tang Dynasty was rare in previous history. @。
