As mentioned last time, this Bai Sufa hugged left and right, without the slightest sense of dignity that a monarch should have. However, after these beauties were taken away by him, he immediately changed his face and looked like a benevolent monarch.

But seeing this Zuo Yehu, he paused and said: "The secret agent we sent to Tuyuhun has sent a message that this Tubo and Tuyuhun are going to the Tang Dynasty to propose marriage and marry the Tang princess." Some time ago, this Tuyuhun sent dozens of dead soldiers to stop the Tubo envoys, just to take the lead and be the first to propose to the Tang Emperor. ”

This Bai Su Vardie's consciousness was indeed much higher than that of Murong Fushun, and he had already thought in his mind: If this Datang marries the princess to them, wouldn't their relationship with Datang be one step closer. Not to be left behind, he immediately decided to go to propose. But after thinking about it, he said: "This king already has a queen, if he marries back, how should this queen be placed?" ”

"This queen's position is naturally presided over by a person with a noble status who is the mother of the world. Although the queen has not been at fault all these years, she has no children, so she should naturally take a back seat. If the princess of the Tang Dynasty is welcomed, even if the queen is unwilling, Weichen is willing to persuade the queen to abdicate with his three-inch tongue. ”

Bai Suva saw that Zuo Yehu was so supportive of marrying the princess of the Tang Dynasty. was immediately happy, and asked in a mocking tone: "Haven't you always objected to me marrying a beauty again, why didn't you object this time?" ”

Zuo Yehu was stunned and replied: "King Qiyu, this marrying a beauty and marrying a princess cannot be compared. Marrying a princess is for the safety of the country, and marrying a beauty is just for personal pleasure, and the two are relatively superior to each other, so Weichen must support marrying this Tang princess this time, and I can't let my king fall behind. ”

Bai Suva listened to his words and felt deeply: "In this case, then everything is entrusted to you with carte blanche. As much as you should bring, how you want to get it, as long as you can marry this Tang princess, you must do whatever it takes. If this is done, the position of the Prime Minister will be yours. ”

This Zuo Ye Hu has been peeping at the position of the prime minister for a long time, but unfortunately because his virtue and belly have not been as good as this old minister of the country, Yelu Taoguang, so he naturally has the upper hand. If he can really do this this time, not only will he be able to enjoy the scenery in the country, but also the countries of the Western Regions will naturally be flowing and majestic. When he heard that the king made such a promise, he kowtowed without saying a word and thanked him.

That's it, Keri, this Zuo Yehu has prepared everything and went to Datang to propose. Facing the Yumen Pass in the spring breeze, this time I looked at Chang'an, not only grateful, but also went to my own dreams and values......

So, I saw that on the official road leading to Chang'an, all the way to Tuguhun Murong Yuanwen, all the way to the left Yehu of the Guizi Kingdom, and all the way to Tubo envoy Lu Dongzan! All of them were carrying gold and silver, rare treasures, riding horses and whips, and went straight to Chang'an.

It is said that after Wang Xuance received the history of the governor of the right guard, his work was very leisurely. When I have nothing to do, I often meet a group of friends, talk about the world, and from time to time go to the Honglu Inn of the Prince of Khotan to learn about the details of the Western Regions, which is quite leisurely. Of course, the one they go to most often is the hotel.

This is a hotel, because it is very close to the Gongyuan Temple, so it was previously called Tongbunkan. With the increase of envoys and foreign business travelers in recent years, the shopkeeper is ruthless, and in order to make a fortune, he will change this Tongwen Museum into a hotel. The meaning is not only easy to understand, but also for entertaining guests from all over the world.

On this day, Wang Xuance led Zhou and Chen to come to the hotel with Wei Chi Fu Yanxin. But I saw a bone Qingqi, a person with fairy wind and heroic bones, who was drinking tea here. When I looked at it like this, it turned out to be Taishi Cheng Li Chunfeng.

Immediately, he greeted him and bowed to him: "Late Wang Xuance, meet Mr. Li."

At this time, Li Chunfeng inadvertently found that he was holding a Qingyu sword in his hand, and he was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood.

It turned out that this Li Chunfeng heard that the magpie answered the door this morning, and his left eyelid kept jumping around, pinching his fingers, and he must have encountered something good today. So I went out of the Taishi Bureau, wandered around the streets, walked to the door of the hotel, happened to be a little sleepy, and came in to rest, never thought that I had met something good here.

Then he was overjoyed and said, "Your master is an old man from Dongye?" ”

Wang Xuance was quite surprised when he heard this question. Since leaving the master, except for Xue Yan and other people close to him, no one else knows who his master is, how can this Mr. Li know. Hurriedly asked, "I don't know where Mr. knows, are you my master's deceased?" ”

Li Chunfeng laughed and said, "It's this sword that betrayed you!" ”

It turns out that this Li Chunfeng is the junior brother of Mr. Dongye, and this Qingyu Sword is a token left by the master to the old man Dongye, not an apprentice and not a pass! When he saw this sword, he already knew that today's happy event was to meet his master and nephew.

When Wang Xuance and everyone understood all this, they were also quite happy. I was about to sit down and say hello. But seeing that Li Chunfeng was about to get up and leave, before leaving, he left a reassuring word: "It's okay, you can go to the Taishi Bureau to have a look"

Wang Xuance smiled and happily promised to send this Li Chunfeng away.

The story comes back to Lu Dongzan, and at this time they have come to the junction of Tubo and Tuyuhun. Looking at the snow on the top of the high mountain, looking at the greenery under your feet, and the cattle and sheep all over the ground. Although there was a quiet and peaceful atmosphere, this Sai Rugong looked at the pass in front of him, and said without worry: "After the previous pass, we will reach the Tuyuhun realm, we should be more careful."

I saw Sambuza looking at the long road ahead and said: "This Tuyuhun has been obedient to the Tang Dynasty for many years, and we are tributary envoys, and they don't dare to come openly, but it is a good policy to be more vigilant." I don't think it's as good as us pretending to be Tibetan merchants, on the one hand, we can confuse the public, and on the other hand, we can move more freely! ”

When Lu Dongzan heard this, he immediately refused: "No, we not only have to pass through this Tuyuhun with great fanfare, but also inform this Murong Fushun" After the words, he looked at the two of them with a positive smile.

Hearing this, although Sambuza understood a little more, this Sairu Gongdun had a shocked expression and looked at Lu Dongzan with a surprised face. I thought: This is enough publicity, how can it be more public, you must understand that although this Tangbo Ancient Road has been opened for a long time, bandits also haunt from time to time, so it is easier to be targeted.

Lu Dongzan seemed to see Sai Ru Gongdun's doubts, so he explained: "All of our people are good at martial arts, if there are a few thieves and bandits, it will not be a problem at all; Our biggest threat is not the thief, but the Fushun Khan of Tuguhun! ”

Listening to his explanation, Sambuza had confirmed his suspicions. But this Sai Ru Gongdun was even more confused and said: "What, does this Fushun Khan dare to be unfavorable to us?" ”

So Sambuza explained to him: "This time I went to the Tang Dynasty to propose marriage, and this news is estimated to have been told to the kings of the Western Regions by secret agents. What do you think, although this Tuyuhun has returned to the Tang Dynasty, but this Murong Fushun's heart of rising is immortal, not to mention that Tubo and Tuyuhun are even more feuding. If we really make peace with this Datang, won't they be in even more danger! ”

"Ahem, look at my brain, if we pretend to be merchants, if we encounter danger in the Tuyuhun realm, he has every reason to blame others, if we make a big fanfare, he will not dare to do it," Sai Ruguntun had an epiphany.

Lu Dongzan also smiled slightly, and then not only repaired the book, but also sent someone to pass it to Tuyuhun King City; And he also passed the order to enter the Tuyuhun realm with great fanfare.

With the setting of the sunset, the grassland has long been embellished with the sunset very beautifully, I saw this Fushun Khan and Murong Yuanming on the steps of this palace enjoying the magnificent scenery of the grassland, conceiving the future of Tuyuhun. But I saw that an inner servant came to tell me: "Qiyu Khan, the envoy of the Tubo State said that he had something important to see you, and he was already waiting outside the palace gate."

Hearing this report, the two were slightly surprised. On second thought, since I don't know what is going on, let's see.

After a cup of tea, I saw that in this Tuyuhun hall, a burly Tubo envoy came to the front of the two of them, bowed down and bowed: "The envoy of the Tubo lord Songtsen Gampo has been ordered to send a plenipotentiary envoy to the Tang Dynasty, and the envoy of Lu Dongzan to meet the Khan!" With that, he presented Lu Dongzan's handwritten letter with both hands.

Murong Yuanming immediately walked over, took the letter, and opened the seal under Murong Fushun's signal. I saw that the letter read: Lu Dong, the minister of the Tubo State, praised and thanked the Khan for his grace. The minister was ordered by Zanbu to go to the Tang Dynasty to meet His Majesty the Heavenly Khan, I have been friendly with your country for many years, and the road to the Tang Dynasty is far away, and I passed through your country today, and I came to visit the Khan......

As soon as they saw this, Murong Yuanming and Fushun Khan immediately understood: This is for us to send troops to protect it. It seems that a few days ago, the things that were set are about to change. Although he gritted his teeth with hatred, he still replied to the envoy: "Please go down and rest for a while, and thank the minister for me."

After withdrawing with the envoy, but seeing this, Murong Fushun said depressedly: "What do you say about this, this has just arrived at our realm, and it has given a dismount!" ”

Murong Yuanming's mind turned like this, and he hurriedly comforted: "Khan, you first dissipate your anger, I think this matter should be done." Our purpose is to delay them to come to Chang'an first, so that they can be served with good food and drink, and don't let them go, no! ”

That's all there is to it. Although Murong Fushun reluctantly agreed, this Murong Yuanming decided to give them a dismount as well.

It's been some time again, and since Lu Dongzan and the others entered the Tuyuhun country, they have really been safe. On this day, when they were about to arrive at this Tuyuhun King City, the situation changed suddenly in an instant. I saw this Sambuza pointing to the dust raised in the distance, and hurriedly said to them: "Look, what's ahead?" ”

Everyone looked at it intently, and saw a large group of people and horses galloping towards them with swords, guns, swords, and halberds. Lu Dongzan immediately ordered strict vigilance.

But seeing that this Tibetan warrior was under the leadership of Sairu Gongdun, one by one the swords were unsheathed and the bow was wound, and they were waiting for the battle. With just a bag of cigarettes, the gang rushed over.

After listening to the black dragon led by the leader, he surrounded them, and then said: "Leave these things behind, and let you live." ”

But seeing this Lu Dong Zanyi returned solemnly: "We are the envoys of the Tubo State, this is going to the Tang Dynasty to pay tribute, if you rob us, it seems that you will not be able to live in peace, it is better to raise your noble hand!" Then they were brought a hundred denarii.

As soon as this black dragon saw this, he immediately roared with contempt: "Since the master has robbed, there will be blessings and suffering, don't bother you!" ”

At this time, after such careful observation, Lu Dongzan on both sides was almost the same, and even if he fought, he would not suffer. Looking at it again, Qinghai Cong, who was all the same, smiled slightly, and already knew the general situation of the matter. So he continued to waste this tongue with these men in black to kill this time...... You come and go, and I have been frozen for a stick of incense.

At this time, Dan listened to another man in black: "Big brother, what are you rubbing for them, let's start." So the black dragon immediately raised his saber, and the situation suddenly became tense.

But at this moment, a group of more than 2,000 sergeants in the distance were fierce and killed.

As soon as he saw this formation, the Black Canglong immediately ordered: Quickly retreat, quickly retreat." After a while, the men in black fled without a trace. This Sambuza wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and said, "Cough, how scary!" ”

I only heard Lu Dongzan smile slightly: "Scary, these people are not robbers in essence, this is for our disadvantage!" ”

"Where does this start?". Sambuza and Sai Ruguntun asked in unison.

"Their horses are not only the same, but they are also authentic Qinghai horses. How could the robbers have such neat horses, they must have been pretended to be Tuyuhun soldiers, and besides, the robbers couldn't understand the reason just now? Lu Dongzan returned calmly.

The two also nodded approvingly.

In the blink of an eye, these two thousand sergeants had already arrived, and it was Murong Yuanming, the prime minister, who was the leader. But seeing that he hurriedly jumped out of the carriage, he apologized: "I am still too late, and I have let my virtuous brother suffer so much that I hope to atone for my sins."

As soon as Lu Dongzan heard this, he immediately turned over and dismounted, and politely replied: "Thanks to the timely arrival of the Prime Minister, otherwise I really don't know what the consequences will be!"

Murong Yuanming then pretended to command a young general next to him: "You, lead five hundred men and horses, go after them quickly, and you must bring them to justice." As soon as the young general heard this, he waved his hand and pursued with five hundred soldiers.

Lu Dongzan hurriedly excused himself and said, "No, no, let's go."

This Murong Yuanming immediately flattered: "How can this be, this is in my Tuyuhun territory, such a thing happened, this is because I have no way to govern the country, let the virtuous brother be frightened by this, it should be so!" ”。

The two then looked at each other and smiled, and the exchange ended.

Murong Yuanming was quite familiar with each other because he had met with Lu Dongzan a few times before. Therefore, he politely took Lu Dongzan's hand and said: "The king and I have already seen the letter of the virtuous brother, and the king has prepared a banquet for the virtuous brother, just waiting for the virtuous brother to receive the wind and wash the dust."

When Lu Dongzan heard that he was so gracious, he hurriedly excused himself and said: "I can't help it, we are only passing through your country this time, and we mainly have to go to Chang'an to meet His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty."

"Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, it's a long way to Chang'an, and I don't care about the past two days, wait until I see the king first, and then discuss after we get together" said that Lu Dongzan was not allowed to continue to argue, so he pulled him into his carriage. A group of Tibetan people, seeing this situation, can only follow.

Along the way, the two talked a lot, but they were all inconsequential. When it comes to sensitive topics, either Murong Yuanming diverges it, or Lu Dongzan bypasses it. Both of them are also tacit.

A few hours later, before dark, they arrived at the Tuyuhun Palace, which had a snowy atmosphere, and this Lu Dongzan also paid a visit to Fushun Khan according to the proper etiquette. After some greetings, the two parties, the guests and hosts sat down, and the banquet began. Between pushing the cup and changing the lamp, but seeing this, Murong Fushun asked pretendedly: "I don't know why the Minister of State went to Chang'an this time?" ”

This Lu Dongzan saw that he was playing this dumb riddle, so he returned: "I Zanbu admired this Tang Dynasty for a long time, so I asked me to take some noble children to the Tang Dynasty to study and seek advice!" ”

Because over the years, there have been many students from all over the world who have gone to study in the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, Murong Fushun did not have much justification for these words. He replied casually: "That's very good." Since I have arrived in Tuyuhun, I will stay for a few more days, so that Prime Minister Murong Guo can accompany you more and have a look at the new atmosphere of my Tuyuhun."

Fushun Khan understood that he did not explain the purpose of Lu Dongzan's trip, but he did not need to click on this kind of thing that he knew. What can be done is to hold them back, so that their own people can take the lead, so that they will have nothing to do. In Murong Fushun's eyes, it seems that it is so simple, whoever arrives first is whoever arrives, and this is also his sadness.

The banquet was held in a joyful, peaceful, and dissenting atmosphere......

After the end, Murong Yuanming arranged Lu Dongzan and his party in accordance with a more solemn etiquette than before. Although he was served with good food and drink every day, when Lu Dongzan went to resign, he always couldn't see this Murong Yuanming, nor did he see this Fushun Khan.

And just like that, another three days have passed......
