Chapter 171: Jokes

Being in a group of Tubo people, Li Jingzhong felt inexplicably relieved, and even turned a blind eye to their occasional faux pas, even if he was in a hurry, he just scolded in his heart: Barbarians are barbarians, how do you know the gift of the Heavenly Empire.

Rushing all the way from Bazado City, the road of two hundred miles, almost without rest, that urgency, so that the Tubo people who escorted him were puzzled, the Tang people's desire for peace talks, is it so strong?

Finally came to the Dome Silver City and lived in the pavilion arranged by the other party, he was able to put down the heart that had been hanging for many days, and even the defect of the house was not so tidy, he could endure it, compared with losing his life, these were trivial things.

What made him helpless was that he couldn't leave immediately and go to the capital of the Tubo people, because the high-ranking Tubo official he let go of had left a few days in advance, and no one knew what to return, so he could only wait.

Fortunately, the other party's hospitality was quite enthusiastic, and he would even invite him to attend the banquet in the palace, which finally made him feel the long-lost attention of being taken seriously, making the wait less boring.

This situation lasted until the arrival of another Tibetan person, who seemed to be much younger, and his words were quite polite, which inexplicably reminded him of the figure of a certain Tang person.

"You are the messenger of the Tang people?" Xi Dongzan saw his identity at a glance, and he was a little disdainful in his heart.

Although he was in the enemy territory, Li Jingzhong still understood his identity, and did not answer, but said by his cronies: "This is our envoy, who are you?" ”

In the Qionglong Silver City, Xi Dongzan didn't dare to take too big, and the Zhangxiong people could listen to Shang Jiezan because he was the justifiable "Kishimoto", and he was just a defeated general who had abandoned his territory, and the Zhangxiong people respected the family behind him.

"Don't get me wrong, I am a confidant of the noble man of Shang Jiezan, and I am responsible for your safety at his command, so I need to know who the messenger of protection is."

Listening to his explanation, Li Jingzhong did not be pretentious and reserved anymore, along the way, he may have to rely on others to protect him, so it is not good to offend.

"When can we leave?"

"Soon, I'll need to make the necessary arrangements to make sure nothing happens along the way." Xi Dongzan was not in a hurry, but patiently talked to him.

For the covenant that has been reached, Li Jingzhong naturally will not hide anything, and tell everything he knows, even the actions of the Nibora have not been hidden, perhaps in his mind, it is just an alien place, and it is impossible for the Tang people to occupy it, and in the end it will return to the hands of the Tibetans.

Xi Dongzan didn't care on the surface, but he was really taken aback in his heart, Tang Ren's movements had far exceeded his expectations, and he had slipped towards the unpredictable side.

Suddenly, he understood why Shang Jiezan would leave desperately, because the biggest crisis may not come from the Qinghai side, but from an unexpected place.

This result, which made him break out in a cold sweat, and the big Bolu that seemed to be like chicken ribs actually affected the survival of the country, and his guilt was far more than the loss of an enclave.

On a street corner not far from here, Liu Ji and his subordinates were also exchanging the information they had collected, and after a few days of exploration, they had a better understanding of the city.

The Tibetans have always wanted to take this land into their pockets, and for more than a hundred years, they have never stopped suppressing it, and in terms of control, it is far greater than that of a subject state like Nibra, and much stronger than the newly acquired land like Bolu, but the effect is not very ideal.

The reason is very simple, this is an ancient kingdom with a long history, with its own unique culture, it is difficult to succumb to an emerging power, in history, until more than ten years later, the most wise monarch in the history of Tibet, Chi Songde approved the year, and finally let them completely succumb, at that time, the Tang Dynasty, has been too busy to take care of itself.

Extrapolating from this result, perhaps, it is precisely because of the strength of the Tang Dynasty that the Tubo people have no way to make a big move, digest this vast land and a large population in advance, and enhance their national strength.

This is an encouraging result, which means that their trip may not be fruitless.

Compared with Bazaduo City, the Dome Silver City built on the mountain, there are almost no holes to drill, the height of the city wall is much higher by the mountain, and the road up the mountain is as steep as the stone castle city, and the price of hard attack is unbearable for a town in Anxi.

More crucially, the advance will provoke a revolt from the entire Zhangzhung region, and it will never be left and right, as in the case of Nibore, and perhaps on the way to the army, there will be unexpected attacks.

With this understanding, Liu Ji paid more and more attention to the upcoming meeting, and he had to find the key to open the lock, perhaps in a woman's body.

Zeng Jiuniang was not surprised by his sudden visit, because of the reasons that the other party said before, it was impossible for her to believe that unless he was an immortal, how could he know that he happened to be here?

If this encounter is not a chance encounter, it means that they have a more important mission, a mission like the city of Hebolao.

"I need your help." Liu Ji said straight to the point.

"Before I say what you ask, what I want to know is, on what basis do you think that I will agree?"

Liu Ji spread his hands: "I don't know, that's why I'll try it." ”

Zeng Jiuniang didn't know whether to be angry or laugh, and her tone was a little helpless: "I still remember what you said that you wouldn't trust me." ”

"I can't trust you now, but here, only you can enter and leave the palace of the Zhangxiong people, and I only know you." Liu Ji said confidently, amusing her again.

"If you want to persuade the Zhangxiong people to join the Tang Dynasty, there will be no result, they may arrest you and send you to the Tubo people."

"Am I like someone who has fallen into the trap?" Liu Ji smiled and said, "I just want to convince you." ”

Zeng Jiuniang looked at him with idiotic eyes: "You want me to convince them?" Why. ”

"I don't know, that's why I'm going to try."

He spread his hands and said, this posture and the tone of his voice successfully made the other party laugh, and her appearance made Liu Ji understand a word, what is called "flowers and branches trembling".

He actually told the truth, and he didn't have the confidence to convince the other party, he just came to see if this woman would give any advice.

It was purely intuitive.

What disappointed him was that Zeng Jiuniang seemed to be immersed in this unfunny joke until her face was red and her ears were red and she couldn't stop panting.

Maybe it was time to leave, and as he stood up, about to say goodbye and leave, a voice sounded in the back of his head.

"I'm sorry, it's been a long time since I've laughed so well." The woman stood up and walked behind him, her fingers running over his back.

"Perhaps, I will consider a suitable condition to facilitate our cooperation."
