Chapter 0284: Sky City
The capital of Tibet does not have decent city walls, and there are not many luxurious buildings in the city, but there is no doubt that it is the highest capital in the world, and it can be called a city in the sky.
Only the Potala Palace, which is located in the north of the city, is overlapping, twisting and turning, merging with the mountain, standing high on the mountain, majestic and magnificent.
This palace was built by Songtsen Gampo to marry Princess Chizun and Princess Wencheng. The roof and window eaves are made of wood, the cornices are overhanged, the corners are upturned, and the copper tiles are gilded. The shiny roof adopts the mountain style and the cumulsk type, which has the architectural style of the Han Dynasty;
The pillars and fangs in the hall are covered with bright colorful paintings and gorgeous carvings. The internal corridors are staggered, the halls are mixed, and the space is tortuous and unpredictable.
Zampu took Zhudan to sit in the main hall, looking down on the entire city. He is not old, he is in his forties, just a big beard, which makes him look like an old man, but his eyes are still sharp, and he still wants to push Tubo to a more brilliant peak.
It's just that it backfired, since he succeeded to the throne, it was encountering the Tang Dynasty, although Tubo had taken advantage of the geographical advantage, and the battle with the Tang Dynasty was more defeated than victorious.
"Leon? Who is this Leon? Zhu Dan retracted his gaze and looked at the ministers in the hall, his tone was a little unkind.
This time, he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of Longyou Jiedu to make Huangfu Weiming convicted and the army's instability to let the general Dazaru Gong lead the army to capture the land of Hehuang, but now because of a Li Ang, many tribes in Dafeichuan were slaughtered, and even the city of Fuqi was destroyed, with more than 10,000 casualties. Dazarugon's 50,000-strong army was unstable because of the instability of the army, so he had to leave behind a large amount of baggage and hastily withdraw.
This is really stealing chickens and rice. lost his wife and broke his soldiers.
Minister Lang, who has just returned from the front? Mei Sebai said: "Zampu, Li Ang is the new science and technology scholar of the Tang Kingdom this year. Only seventeen years old, he never led troops into battle.
Hear it straight from the horse's mouth. This time, he only led fifty people to infiltrate Dafeichuan, and if there was no traitor to respond to him, it would be impossible for him to break multiple tribes in a row and capture Fuqi City. ”
Dayan, the son of Mangbuzhi? Bufan listened to Lang? Mei Se couldn't help but be furious when she said this, and immediately pointed at him and reprimanded: "Long Mei Se, who do you say is the traitor?" You make it clear!! ”
Bright? Mei Se secretly sneered in her heart, and said with an innocent look on her face: "Bufan, I'm just talking about things. A literati who had never led an army to fight, with fifty men, could break through the city of Fuqi and slaughter many tribes in Tibet, if there was no traitor to respond, how could this kind of thing happen? ”
What is the end of the matter in charge of legal affairs? Dong Zebu glanced at Dayan? Bu Fan glanced at it and said, "Bu Fan, as soon as you say that there is a mole, why are you so furious?" Others didn't say that the big talk was a mole. The big talk just happened to be recuperating in Fu Qi City, this is a coincidental thing, why are you so weak-hearted? ”
"Who has a weak heart? You ....... "Dayan?" Bufan is a person with no scheming, in Lang? Plum and end? Dong Zebu sang and squeezed down. His face turned red and he was furious. It's just that the more this happens, the more people think that he is a thief.
The Dayan family is a large Tibetan family. For a long time, tribal rebellions within Tibet have occurred from time to time. This is the most feared thing as Zampu, Dayan? Boufan's performance. Let the ruler take Zhudan like a thorn in his heart.
The internal minister in charge of government affairs (small discourse) Wu Yan Guo said at this time: "Zampu, the rumors outside may not be credible, this is likely to be deliberately spread by the Tang State to divide our monarchs and ministers. Da Lun has always been loyal to Zampu, and has led troops to fight for many years and made great contributions. How could you betray Zampu? ”
Dayan? Bu Fan hurriedly followed the words of Wu Yan Guo and said: "Zampu, what the minister said is that my father will not betray Zan Pu, and those rumors must have been deliberately spread by Tang Jun." ”
Bright? Mei Se didn't seem to be reconciled if he didn't kill the Dayan clan, and he stepped forward again and said: "Zampu, the matter of colluding with the Tang State is not from the Tang army, but from the people of Fuqi City;
Before I returned, I had seen a few people who had escaped from the city. According to them, at that time, a large number of them were escorted by the Tang army to be beheaded, and when they passed the city gate tower, they saw Da Yan standing on the city wall with that Li Ang;
At that time, Li Ang was thanking Da Lun for his response, and Da Lun asked Li Ang, saying that the Tang Emperor's words counted? Li Ang reassured Da Lun, once the news of the breach of Fu Qi City reached the front barracks, our 50,000 troops would definitely be shaken, and then the Tang army would be able to defeat our army, and then the Tang army would take advantage of the situation to seize the land of Dafeichuan and the Yellow River;
At this point, Zampu will definitely lead the army to go in person, and then the Dayan Department will take the opportunity to betray and attack the Zampu army from behind and the Tang army, and the Zampu army will definitely be defeated;
After the deed was accomplished, the emperor of the Tang State promised to confer Da Lun as the king of Tubo, and all places except for the land of Dafeichuan and the Yellow River Jiuqu were given to Da Lun as a fief......."
Bright? Mei Se said, Dayan? Bufan flew into a rage again, and actually pulled out his knife to chase and kill Lang? Meise, "Long Meise, you slandered my father, slandered our Dayan Department, you are the traitor of the Tang Army, I will kill you......."
"Stop!" Qi Dai Zhudan was furious and shouted outside the palace, "Come on, take Dayan Bufan and lock him up, no one will be allowed to visit without my permission!" ”
The inner minister looked at Dayan who was escorted down? Bu Fan sighed secretly in his heart, Mang Buzhi is a smart man, how could he give birth to such a stupid son, this time I am afraid that no one will be able to save the Dayan family.
The anger of the ruler belt Zhudan was not extinguished, staring at Lang? Mei Se asked, "Lang. Meise, is it true what you said? ”
Bright? Mei Se hurriedly replied: "Back to Zampu, I brought back a total of twenty-one people, all of them were the people of Fu Qi City who lived for the rest of their lives after the catastrophe, and they all heard the conversation between Li Ang and Da Yan at that time. ”
Guo interjected: "Zampu, I don't think things are so simple, if Da Tan really colluded with Tang Guo, how could such an important matter be talked about in front of so many people?" I'm afraid there is fraud in this. ”
When Zhu Dan heard this, he couldn't help but nod, and his face was hesitant.
Bright? Mei Se immediately said: "Zampu, the inner minister ignored one point, I said just now that these people in Fu Qi City were escorted by the Tang army at that time, and they were all going to be beheaded. In the eyes of Li Ang and Da Yan, I am afraid that these people are all dead. What else do you need to worry about?
When nearly half of these people were killed by the Tang army, the news of the approach of Zhuoma's army happened to reach Fu Qi City. The people of Fu Qi City saw that the left and right were also dead, so they rose up to resist. They fled for their lives, and the Tang army was in a hurry to withdraw, and it was too late to chase and kill them one by one, so that a small number of civilians escaped. If Zampu does not believe, he can send these people to the temple to inquire, and if his subordinates have half a lie, they are willing to be punished by Zampu. ”
Zhu Dan also felt in his heart that Li Ang was a civil official with fifty Tang troops. Making such a big move, if there is no mole to answer, it is really unbelievable.
If it weren't for Dazaru Gong's quick opportunity and resolute abandonment of his baggage and withdrawal, the news that the rear Fuqi City had been broken by the Tang army would have reached the army, and the final defeat would have been inevitable when the army's morale was unstable.
If Dazarugong's 50,000 army is defeated, the Tang army will take advantage of the victory to capture Dafeichuan and Jiuqu of the Yellow River, which is a logical thing. The ruler with Zhu Dan asked himself. When the time comes, will he lead the army to conquer in person? The answer is: definitely.
When he led the army to conquer in person, if the Dayan Department suddenly rebelled, he should cooperate with the Tang army. What are the consequences? Zhu Dan didn't dare to think about it, because what Li Ang and Mang Buzhi predicted was likely to come true.
Zhu Dan was afraid for a while, and he immediately put Lang? The people of Fuqiu City brought back by Mei Se came to the temple. Ask in person. Got the answer and Lang? What Mei Se said is all in line with each other.
Zan Pu ruler with Zhu Dan trembled with a big beard on his face, and his expression was cloudy. There was silence, and the coercion in the hall made everyone hold their breath. Only a few times the sound of the ruler with Zhu Dan's fingers hitting the back of the chair, the sound was not loud, but it was like a heavy hammer hitting the hearts of everyone in the hall.
After a while, he looked around at the ministers in the hall and asked the leader of the Subi tribe first: "Wu Lingzan, what do you think of this matter?" ”
Wu Lingzan is almost sixty years old, the oldest, and the Subi tribe is the most powerful of the four major tribes of Tibet, and the degree of civilization is even higher than that of the Tubo tribe. Among the Subi tribes, many people are dissatisfied with the rule of Tibet, and Zampu has always been very wary of the Subi tribe.
In short, Wu Lingzan's identity is very sensitive, especially when it comes to things like tribal betrayal, once he says the wrong thing, it is likely to lead to trouble, so he has not intervened.
But the ruler took Zhudan to ask him by name, and he couldn't help but answer without Lingzan, so he had to step forward and say: "Zampu, whether the Great Commentary and the Dayan Department have betrayed Zampu, I'm afraid it is difficult to determine based on the current evidence alone, and His Majesty feels that he should investigate in detail again, and when there is conclusive evidence, it is not too late to convict." ”
The inner minister Wu Guo then echoed and said: "Zampu, it is very reasonable to say that there is no Lingzan, and your subordinates also feel that they should be investigated in detail, so as not to fall into the Tang Kingdom's divisive plan and wronged the Da Yan and Dayan clans." ”
The Dayan clan has a large number of people, and in addition to the big talk about Mangbuzhi, there are many clansmen who are either officials or leading soldiers. It is not a simple matter to move the Dayan clan, and if it is not good, it may even cause civil strife in Tibet.
The ruler took Zhu Dan and turned his head and asked the quasi-minister in charge of legal affairs? Dong Ze preached: "Dong Zebu, what is your opinion? ”
End? Dong Zebu replied with a worried face: "Zampu, this matter really needs to be carefully verified and then convicted, but what His Majesty is worried about is that there are many clansmen who are officials in the court and bring troops outside, in case what those people in Fuqiu City say is true, if we slowly verify, we are only afraid of ........."
End? Dong Zebu didn't finish his words, but there was no need for that, indeed, if the big talk about Mangbu and his people really betrayed Tubo secretly, and now to slowly verify it, it will only give the Dayan Department sufficient preparations.
In history, many capable ministers will be unjustly killed, and in the eyes of future generations, the monarch at that time was really stupid and cut off his arm.
In fact, this view is somewhat of a bit of a backache when standing and talking.
As a monarch, what I am most worried about is not the lack of talents, but my own imperial power and my own life! In the face of the betrayal of his subordinates, people who are the rulers of the people often prefer to believe in what they have rather than what they don't have.
Killed one of his subordinates in vain, and only one of his subordinates died, and as a monarch, there were many subordinates. If you don't kill it, you may be the one who dies!
What's more, the relationship between the monarch and the minister is very delicate, and the rumors are together, you say that you still believe in your subordinates, but do your subordinates believe in him and do you still believe him? Once there is a mustard in the heart, it is difficult to get rid of it.
Instead of being suspicious of each other and getting a good night's sleep, why don't you get straight to the point?
If you are wronged, your own safety is the most important thing!
