Chapter 19: The Decision of the Tibetan Affair (First Update, Asking for Votes)
Du He got the new cloth strip written by Chen Wen and compared it with what Lu Dongzan wrote.
For him, this Tibetan script is not easy to be Martian script, but he is very skilled in calligraphy, and it can be seen that the handwriting of the two is almost the same in the strokes. What's more, Lu Dongzan wrote hastily, and with a wave, the font will also be out of shape because of this, and he should be able to hide the past.
Duhe hid the strip of cloth in his sleeve and returned to the private room.
In the private room, Li Jingye was pestering Qinling to drink, forcing Qinling to be at a loss.
Du He smiled secretly, among their group, Li Jingye was the most insidious, the most scoundrel, and the most shameless, and he couldn't bear to be entangled with anyone.
Qin Ling pitifully asked Du He, who came in, and he looked like he had been molested.
Du He stepped forward to pull Li Jingye away, and unknowingly put the cloth strip back in place when toasting.
After eating and drinking, he let go of Qinling and let him go.
Seeing Qinling walking out of the restaurant from the window, Li Jingye wondered: "Qinglian, what are you doing?" For no reason, I dragged the Tibetan man with me, and the smell on his body was terrible and died. ”
Du He squinted his eyes and laughed: "Don't worry about this, it has your benefits anyway!" Come, let's keep drinking! ”
Li Jingye didn't ask much, picked up the wine glass, and the two continued to eat and drink.

Qin Ling left the restaurant and hurried back to the post house, handing Lu Dongzan's letter to Songtsan Xiruo.
Song Zan Xiruo read the content, but his brows furrowed, and he was surprised: "The prime minister actually agreed to cut the land, so that I can suffer this humiliation in Tibet?" ”
Qin Ling did not agree with the compensation for the land cession in his heart, and when he heard Song Zan say this, he also showed an incredible look, and took the letter and read it carefully. Before and after, I watched it several times over and over again, and sighed: "Daddy's clever calculation, I'm afraid it's far inferior." ”
"What do you mean by that?" Song Zan Xiruo asked, "And what does the letter mean?" ”
Qin Ling sighed: "This is an allusion of the Tang people a long time ago, saying that the Yue Kingdom is not as good as the Wu Kingdom, and the Yue King Goujian showed flattery to the King of Wu in every way, and even did not hesitate to give the King of Wu a taste of dung, in order to win the favor of the King of Wu, so that the King of Wu despised him." And after he returned to the Yue Kingdom, he only slept on firewood and grass, and tasted bitter gall before eating and sleeping, so as to remember the shame, work hard, and finally defeated the Wu State. ”
Songzan Xiruo understood the content of the story and suddenly realized: "Daxiang, this is asking us to learn Goujian? deliberately showed weakness, expressed submission, but secretly worked hard, first attacked weak countries such as Zhangxiong and Nanzhao, and then competed with Datang when the strength was strong! ”
"That's exactly what it means!" Qin Ling nodded affirmatively: "Lord, what do you say we should do now?" ”
Songzan Xiruo gritted his teeth and said: "The eldest brother once said that Zhuge Liang, who is like a Tang person, his words will not be wrong, just listen to him." I have to admit that our strength is far inferior to Datang, and we should learn from Goujian's lying salary and taste courage, instead of being an enemy of Datang. I went into the palace to ask to see the Tang Emperor and agreed to his request. ”
They never dreamed that the letterhead in their hands was not what Lu Dongzan really meant, but Du He's own thoughts.
Here Du He deliberately set a trap, he knew that the Tubo people admired the culture of the Tang Dynasty very much, and someone must know that Gou Jian was such a character. Therefore, Gou Jian was deliberately used as an example, and the success of Gou Jian was used to predict the future "success" of Tibet. Let them believe that it is the wisest decision to cede land and pay tribute, and make them think that the words "Lu Dongzan" are very reasonable, and thus ignore the most important point:
The real reason for Gou Jian's success is not his lying salary and courage, but the mediocrity and defeat of King Wu!
*********
At noon that day, Li Shimin sent someone to call Du He.
"You kid...... I don't even know how to say it, such a difficult thing for you to do in such a simple way! Li Shimin sat on the top with a wry smile.
Half an hour ago, Songtsen of Tibet came to see him. During the conversation, Songtsen Xiruo's attitude changed drastically, and his every move was full of piety, which surprised him greatly. After a little discussion, it was found that Songzan Xiruo did not allow all his requests, just as Du He said, not only agreed to them to cut the land in Qinghai, but also agreed to pay tribute for many years, and was willing to treat the Tang Dynasty as a nephew.
Regarding the change in Songzan Xiruo's attitude, Li Shimin immediately thought of Du He, and knew that all this was his ghost.
After making a verbal contract with Song Tsan Xiruo, he immediately invited Chen Wen and asked him what Du He had done with him.
Chen Wen answered truthfully one by one.
Li Shimin's mind is so alert, this analysis before and after, and also figured out the mysteries. Du He took advantage of Lu Dongzan's prestige in Tubo to deliberately let Qinling meet with Lu Dongzan and let them pass the letterhead privately. Later, he didn't give Qin Ling a chance to see the news privately, abducted him to a restaurant, stole Lu Dongzan's letterhead at the banquet, and then imitated Lu Dongzan's handwriting and wrote a reply letter, which was returned to the original owner.
Because Qinling didn't have time to read the letter in advance, he didn't know the true content of Lu Dongzan, but took Du He's meaning as Lu Dongzan's thoughts, so there was the above scene.
All kinds of layouts are not esoteric or clever, as long as you know the process, you can understand the problem, but this layout that is not esoteric or clever has achieved miraculous results.
Li Shimin also had to secretly admire, but this Duhe was different and could do things that others could not do.
"The simplest way is often the most practical, because it is simple so that people can ignore it, because it is simple because it has unexpected miracles. On the contrary, the more complicated the matter, the more it will attract people's attention, so it will lose the effect of the cause! Du He faced Li Shimin's wry smile and calmly gave his answer, "As far as a kid is concerned, there is only success or failure in strategy, and there is no simple and complicated theory. A strategy that can achieve the goal is a brilliant strategy. ”
Li Shimin looked at him, his eyes were full of appreciation, and he sighed: "What you said is right, although I know that you have a way, but before this result comes out, I can't figure out what your intentions are." It's not that it's as simple as you think, but it's complicated that I think, but I ignore the most direct and effective method...... It's just that you're too bold to do this, so you're not afraid to let him find out when you start? ”
Du He shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said: "If you find out, you will tear your face if it is not big, anyway, he didn't look at it, at most he will destroy the letter, and no one will lose!" He didn't care about it, but he laughed in his heart, not to mention the secret letter hidden in his sleeve pocket, even if it was hidden in his chest, he also had the ability to use his empty hand to take the secret letter without him knowing it.
"Uncle Li......" Du He suddenly changed his tone, and a little hippie smiled: "You see that the kid has done such a good job in this matter, is it also ...... it" and then made an expression that you understand.
Li Shimin scolded with a smile: "Go and go, I have faith in my words...... However, the ugly words are ahead, Changle is not deeply involved in the world, and rarely goes out of the palace, if there is an accident outside, don't blame me for turning my face and being ruthless! ”
"Uncle Xie-Li!" Du He jumped up happily, put on a triumphant posture, and said with a package ticket: "Uncle, don't worry, even if the kid doesn't have a surname, he will ensure the safety of Princess Changle." ”
