The magic of heaven and earth is all like this, it was still hot a few days ago, and not long after walking north, the weather cooled down suddenly, and when I arrived at Yadongguan in the Himalayan pass, there were even Miao Miao snowflakes falling in the sky. Pro, Baidu search eye & fast, a large number of novels are free to read.

Li Xueyan's car also had to change its appearance, with a coal stove burning under the car, spreading the heat throughout the car along the original location where the cold air was dissipated.

Outside the car, Qin Huaiyang was even more draped in a thick cotton armor, and the thick cotton lining inside the iron armor was overlapped with the plush, which held the precious heat.

Out of the Himalayan Pass of Yadongguan Town, in front of the junction of Fujian and Tubo is the Naitula Pass, along this road past, hundreds of miles later is the city of Luo, Lhasa in later generations, here is the trade lifeline of Tianzhu and Tubo.

There are countless Fujian merchants who walked around to Tubo, and when the delegation of more than 500 people arrived here, there were still many people with altitude sickness, and they were only barely able to move forward after a delay of two days at Yadong Pass, except for Li Quan's thirteen iron guards, almost everyone was a little uncomfortable, which made Qin Huaiyang a little more worried about this trip.

More sorrowful than him is Qinling, all the way from Uttar Pradesh, when he came to the Tubo territory, when he came back, it was the same again, and it became almost unrecognizable.

Nine years ago, the huge borders of Uttar Pradesh were still under the world of the Tianzhu people, and these Tianzhu natives hated both the Tang and the Tubo, especially the Tubo who had just destroyed their homeland with the cavalry.

All the native inhabitants were reduced to serfs, more than 300,000 Tianzhu people were taken to Tibet as slaves, and the rest were joined by Tibetans who emigrated from Tibet, imitating the ruling system on the plateau, which lasted for eight years.

But in just one month, Fujian has turned Uttar Pradesh upside down, imitating the county system, dividing the pastures and cultivated fields for the Tubo people, especially in life, the Tang people also taught the Tubo people to plant beans, squeeze oil, use soybean meal to feed livestock, and plant pasture and other means, spiritually in each county town also built Buddhist temples and Taoist temples to replace the Bon faith, and now from the counties have passed, Qinling has not even found the Tubo people who yearn for Tibet.

Even if the land of Uttar Pradesh is returned, it is estimated that Tubo will not be able to rule, which is equivalent to the failure of this mission, and with the cooperation of the Tang people, Qinling frustrated hundreds of Tubo heads and nobles and thousands of them all have to come back and lead them back to Tubo.

What made Qinling even more depressed was that the backbone and core nobles and warriors of the original Tubo rule were unwilling to return to China and were willing to stay in Fujian.

Both the Tibetan ambassador and the Fujian ambassador were preoccupied, and they stepped silently all the way into the Nathula Pass.

Even as a gap in the Himalayas, Nathula is still more than 4,000 meters above sea level, and the Tibetan word for Nathula means the place where the wind and snow are piled up.

Although this is a long-standing trade route, most of the tea and cloth imported from Fujian to Tibet pass through here, but recently Fujian and the nearby kingdoms of Nepal and Sikkim are at war, and the mission carries major finances and has to be guarded against.

The black flags of the country of Fujian were all blowing fiercely in the wind, and the blowing wind mixed with snowflakes was almost breathless, and almost all the knights dismounted, covering their mouths and noses and pulling the cattle forward.

With a thick woolen scarf around his neck, Qin Huaiyang was also trekking with a lot of worries, and suddenly, on the high slope in the distance, several firelights appeared in the wind and snow, and the firelight swayed in a zigzag shape, which looked particularly strange.

"Ambassador!" Vigilly, Li Que dragged her long lance and pasted it, arching his fist vigilantly asking.

"Ambassador! Do you need to take a look? ”

"Ignore them and move on." Qin Huaiyang's face showed a little relaxation, and he waved his hand indifferently.

"Whoa." agreed, Li Que retreated again, but when she passed by that section of the mountain pass, she was still a little vigilant after all, but fortunately, there was no danger in passing over.

The commercial prosperity of Fujian has brought incomparable prosperity, but this prosperity is also paved with a lot of corpses, Naitula Pass is several miles long, and you can see frozen corpses every few steps between the winding mountain roads, some of which have a history of several years or even decades, but there are still new corpses that have appeared in the past two years, most of them are the Tianzhu people who migrated slaves to the plateau in Tubo and did not adapt to the cold weather and froze to death here, and there are also guys who were lost and starved to death after the caravan was scattered.

However, after a difficult trek through this hellish journey, out of the Himalayan pass, another unique and magnificent scenery came into view.

The sky seems to be a little lower here, the valley is vertical and horizontal, the clouds and mist are wrapped around the mountain, as if within reach, a large river flows in the valley, the banks of the river are full of clear and proud greenery, and the Tibetans can be vaguely seen grazing by the river valley with yaks.

A large Tibetan settlement is not far from the mountain pass, along both sides of the Brahmaputra River, with patches of felt wrapped in layers and undulations, and in the center of the settlement, a Buddhist temple built on a high platform made of gravel is clearly visible from afar, and prayer flags hung by long ropes around the temple flutter in the wind.

The world here seems to have a wild feeling of eternal flood, and when you return to this plateau, even the preoccupied Qinling and the arrogant Dharma King Zageshe along the way are all exuding from the heart of relaxation and comfort.

Li Xueyan, who had been trembling and shouting coldly, wore a white fox fur, pushed open the door of the warm carriage like a white little fox and walked down, Li Que also took a step forward relaxedly, and opened his arms to the vast mountains and rivers and blue sky.

In the distance, when they saw the mission, the Tibetan tribe that thought it was a caravan greeted them from afar and enthusiastically served tsampa and butter tea.

In the past 10 days, the mission passed through the winding valley of southern Tibet and entered the central part of the Tibetan Plateau, a branch of the Brahmaputra River, and the plain of the Lhasa River valley, which was the center of Tibet's rule.

However, in Luo, about 20 miles from Lhasa, the mission unexpectedly encountered a huge welcoming procession from Tibet.

Tens of thousands of Tibetan soldiers and civilians lined up on both sides of the road, and there were colorful scriptures and banners supported high by flagpoles everywhere, Tibetan noblewomen wearing Tibetan robes made of silk, wearing hata and jumping far away from the pot village, Tibetan nobles wearing metal heavy armor and four guards and knights galloping back and forth neatly, and thousands of monks wearing khaki monks' robes and muttering Tibetan Buddhist scriptures.

"What's going on?"

This scene was unexpected, Qin Huaiyang turned around quite curiously and asked Qin Ling, but Qin Ling and Zagexi were also dumbfounded when they looked at the team that came to greet them, and after a full moment, Qin Ling was so surprised that he shouted out.

"Zamp! Zamp personally greeted him! ”

Riding on horseback, Qin Ling and Zageshe greeted them first.

It's really a big face, when the lord of the country came out to welcome Princess Wencheng and married into Tubo, Songtsan Gampo only went out to welcome more than ten miles, and now the envoys of Fujian have arrived, and Tubo Zampu personally greeted him, as if the status of Fujian has been placed on the same level as Chang'an, but Qin Huaiyang has a feeling of flattery.

However, before the ceremony, it was a tearful confession meeting, many of the Tubo nobles in Tianzhu Northern Pradesh were relatives of the central nobles of Tubo, and the branches were sent back to China from Tianzhu in embarrassment, and many relatives met.

This kind of scene filled an embarrassment for the Fujian mission, fortunately, people who engage in politics have always been thick-skinned, Qin Huaiyang drooped his head, but Li Xueyan was quite mature, and led her husband and deputy envoy Li Que to step forward and meet Tubo Zampu.

At this time, the Tubo Zampu Mangsong Mangzan was only about fourteen or fifteen years old, in the unique land of the snowy plateau, Zampu's dress was also quite religious, with a tall lama hat similar to that of Zageshe, an earthy yellow undershirt, a crimson robe, and then wrapped in a leather jacket, the whole person looked a little more sacred and solemn under this dress, sitting on the sedan chair carried by dozens of people, looking down majestically.

What's even more remarkable is that the woman next to him should be Queen Zampu, who is also graceful and luxurious in a silk robe, with clean long hair braided into a full braid, and a precious turquoise, and her face is not as round and red as the Tubo people, but has the fairness and slenderness of the Han people.

After looking at it twice, Li Xueyan pulled Qin Huaiyang and Li Que in the back to greet him, and said in a humble voice: "The envoy of the Fujian State Qin Huaiyang/Li Xueyan visited Zampu, and this envoy brought the blessings of the King of Fujian, may Zampu live a long and healthy life, and the country will be forever."

With a smile on his face, Mangsong Mangzan listened to the interpreter's underestimation for a while, and then muttered a piece of Tibetan with a smile, and then the translator said it loudly: "Zampu said that he was grateful for the blessings of King Min, and Zampu has admired King Min for a long time, and he was very happy to see the envoy of Min, and Zampu invited the envoy to join him in Luo."

"In this case, thank you Zamp!" Li Xueyan bowed again.

The envoys of the Fujian State were mixed in the huge Tubo welcome procession, the lamas and monks blew a long horn, and marched towards the city of Luo in a lively manner, along the way, the girls of the Tubo always dragged their long sleeves and danced, looking lively and grand, while walking, sitting on the chariot carried by dozens of people, Zampu Mangsong Mangzan also kept asking some things about the Fujian State, and Qin Huaiyang replied very politely.

After traveling for about half an hour, they arrived at the final goal of the mission, and Lhasa City, a huge city surrounded by mountains and rivers, wild and solemn in ancient times, came into the eyes of Qin Huaiyang and Li Que
