Chapter 237: Kill without killing
Tubo Inner Minister Bo Lun rode a tall and majestic horse and walked slowly, and when he walked to the front of the Great Prime Minister's Qinling Mansion, he unconsciously glanced at the door. There was a group of people and a car parked there at the door, and even if there were no people, he would have subconsciously taken a look at the mansion of the prime minister of the current dynasty.
He saw that the steward of the Great Minister's Mansion had sent a group of people to the door and covered the door, and these people escorted the empty car and walked towards him. In the middle of the crowd stood a man with a round-brimmed hat, and when his samurai came forward to make them walk aside, he walked to the side of the road and glanced up at his group.
With this upturned face, Bo Yan sat condescendingly on the horse, and saw Yang Fan's appearance clearly. Bo Yansi's gaze had already swept over the man's face, and suddenly flashed back, his eyes wide open.
"What a familiar face!"
Bo Lun felt as if he had seen him somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while, and only vaguely felt that he hadn't seen him in the royal city. It would be even more strange that he hadn't been to many places, and this man ......
Bo Yan suddenly pulled the reins of the horse, and he remembered!
He remembered the man's face, which he had seen in the tent of the Eastern Turk Khan!
This man was a Turk, the nephew of the Turkic Khan, and he couldn't remember his name, but as soon as he remembered the place where he had seen him, he remembered his identity.
Bo Yan sobbed and became suspicious, and there was also a war between the Turks and the Tibetans, but for now they were working together to deal with their most powerful enemy: Tang.
A son of a Turkic royal family came to Tibet, this is a very grand event, weishenme Zampu doesn't know? weishenme this Turkic prince dressed as a commoner? weishenme he sneakily came out of the Great Minister's Mansion?
The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became, for he reined in his horse, and the whole team stopped, and his entourage did not know what the Minister had to order. Hurried to his side. Bo Yan sipped down from his horse and whispered, "Did you see the group of people who had just left the Prime Minister's Mansion with an empty car?" ”
The attendant steward nodded hurriedly, and said, "Bring two clever ones to follow." Behold where they land, and be careful not to let them find out. After deciding on the place. Leave someone to guard, you come and report me quickly! ”
Seeing his serious expression, the steward didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly took two people to rush back.
Bo Lun Si led someone to escort the two vases back to the house, and after the vases were placed, the steward ran back, and he had already followed them to the whereabouts of the men. Bo Yan sent Yu Qingshan and the others away, immediately changed into civilian clothes, and ordered dozens of warriors to change into civilian clothes and hide sharp blades. He left the mansion with him.
Bo Lun rushed to the place where Niu Feng and the others landed, and hid in a nearby shop and waited patiently. In the evening. Bo Lunsi saw the men leave the inn where they were staying and go to a nearby restaurant to eat. Bo Lunsi reconfirmed the identity of the other party, and left most of the samurai in the palace under close surveillance, and immediately rushed to the royal city.
The Tibetan crossbow received the prime minister in the majestic palace made of huge stones, and this huge and magnificent castle stood on the top of the Red Mountain, which was extremely majestic.
The king of Tubo was just twenty years old this year, and he looked a little weak, with a fair complexion and a somewhat melancholy temperament.
He recounted everything he had seen to the king of Tubo from beginning to end, and told the king of Tubo what Xiong Kaishan was still locked up in the dungeon.
When the king of Tubo heard this, his face suddenly became cloudy, and he muttered to himself: "Qinling...... What is this for? ”
Bo Yan owed a debt and did not speak.
The more the king of Tubo thought about it, the more uneasy he became, since he was a child, it was Lu Dongzan and Qinling father and son who were in charge of state affairs, and now he is an adult, but Lu Dongzan is a famous minister, and Qinling is especially better than his father, not only is he very good at governing internal affairs, but he is invincible in leading troops to fight, and enjoys a high reputation in the country.
Nowadays, the Gar family of Qinling has controlled the military power of most of the country in Tibet, and its prestige even exceeds that of the royal family of Zampu, if it were not for the hereditary replacement system of Zampu's throne has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, no one thinks that the throne can also be overthrown, I am afraid that his throne will not be guaranteed.
The adult king of Tubo was deeply jealous of this powerful minister, and in recent years, there have been fewer opportunities for Qinling to lead troops to the army, because the king of Tubo does not want him to have the opportunity to control more troops and grasp greater power.
The king of Tubo paced on the unusually empty hall for a while, slowly followed his steps, and said faintly: "If ......, the tribe of Wuzhile is not a fraudulent surrender, can this matter be explained?" ”
Bo Yan said cautiously: "Zampu is saying? ”
The king of Tubo smiled coldly and said: "If, the Wuzhile department really had the intention to surrender and sent an envoy to see him, but he was intercepted by Qinling, and after asking the truth, he kidnapped the person, saying that he got the information, and Wuzhile really surrendered by fraud, is it impossible?" ”
Bo Yan sobbed: "This ......, Wu Zhi Leruo, and my dynasty is greatly beneficial, what is the great minister going to do?" ”
The King of Tubo glanced at him coldly and snorted, "Knowingly ask!" ”
Bo Yan snorted and smiled.
The king of Tubo knew that he was loyal to him, but he didn't want to say from his mouth that Qinling had bad intentions, so he said: "Originally, it didn't make sense, but now with the mysterious appearance of that Turkic prince, even I am in the dark, this matter is not impossible." ”
Bo Yan didn't answer, just listened, and the king of Tubo said gloomily: "Qinling has always had bad intentions, but although he has the power of the army, it is unlikely that he wants to turn them against me......
Bo Yan sobbed, "Yes! Zampu is in the heart of the world, he can use the rights given to him by Zampu to fight in all directions, and all the soldiers will naturally obey their orders, but if he wants to turn this knife and stab Zampu, this knife will not agree. ”
The king of Tubo smiled proudly and said, "However, if Wu Zhile led the ten tribes of the Eastern Turks to defect to our dynasty and was used by Qinling, would this knife listen to him?" ”
The hall was silent suddenly, although the hall was very wide, the atmosphere was unusually depressing.
After a long time, the king of Tubo said: "It's a pity that the envoy of Uzhile does not understand that he has this ambition, since he has taken refuge, of course he must take refuge in me, I can give them status and territory, and Qinling does not have this power." ”
Seeing that Zampu had said it so clearly, he said: "With the prestige created by the management of the father and son for two generations and repeated military exploits, although he can't overpower Zampu, but it also makes Zampu easy to move him, if the ten surnamed tribes are used by Zampu, one will lose the other, and his shili will plummet, so he can't use it for himself, he deliberately sabotaged the defection of Uzile, and repeatedly implored Zampu to immediately send troops to attack Dadou Bagu." ”
The king of Tubo nodded, smiled proudly, and said: "Fortunately, the area within the Great Dou Ba Valley is where his tribe is stationed, in order to prevent him from leading the troops again, I didn't agree, otherwise, ...... I almost fell for his tricks. ”
Bo Yan sobbed: "Zampu is wise! ”
The king of Tubo thought for a moment and said, "This Turkic prince seems to be his messenger for contact with the Turks. Although the Eastern and Western Turks are of the same root, due to the struggle for the throne of the Khan, they are incompatible. When Qinling saw that I refused to send troops, he instigated the Eastern Turks to make a move, but he didn't know ...... What conditions did he promise the other party! ”
Speaking of this, the eyes of the King of Tubo became gloomy again.
Bo Yan thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid, I'm afraid, the ten surnamed tribes are forced to agree to submit to him under the oppression of the Eastern Turks, then ......"
The king of Tubo said: "Not bad! Can't let him get his way! ”
Huo Ran, the king of Tubo, turned to Bo Yan and said, "You immediately lead people to arrest those Turks, and you must not let them reach an agreement with each other!" Then he released the man from the tribe of Uzil from prison, and sent someone to escort him back, and negotiate with Uzil about his conformity. ”
Knowing that the situation was urgent, Bo Yan Si quickly agreed, and left the palace quickly.
The king of Tubo stood there alone, his fists gradually clenched, and his voice was as fierce as the wind on the plateau: "Qinling! Now, it's not time for me to turn against you, but sooner or later I'll clean you up! ”
When Bo Lun Si left the palace, it was already dark, Bo Lun Si immediately mobilized the samurai, rushed to the place where Niu Feng and others stayed, at this time they had already finished dinner and returned to the accommodation, this is also a watchtower-style building, Bo Lun Si did not say a word, immediately ordered people to attack the watchtower where they lived.
The towers were all extremely brave, relying on the strong fortress to resist stubbornly, and soon, a row of nearby houses and shops were in flames, and the whole street was plunged into a scuffle. After a fight, the people in the watchtower broke through and fled, and when they entered the watchtower, only a few corpses of the war dead were carried out.
After some searching, Bo Lunsi searched one of the most luxurious and spacious rooms some of the possessions that the escapees had not had time to take with them, and judging from the value of the house and the clothes and jewels, it must have been the leading figure among them, and this person was undoubtedly the Turkic prince.
The most important of these possessions is an armband.
This is a unique Tibetan arm ornament, which is inlaid with Sese, a jewel shaped like a bead, and the color is emerald green. Just as the Tang Dynasty officials used the color of their official uniforms and the patterns on their clothing to distinguish their ranks, the Tibetan officials used arm ornaments to distinguish their ranks, and this kind of arm ornaments on the arms were divided into five kinds: Sese, gold, gold, silver, silver, and copper.
There is no doubt that this was a gift from the Chin Ling to the Turkic princes, and at the same time it was a token.
When Bo Lun Si entered the palace overnight, told Zampu about the arrest, and presented this armband, the king of Tubo held it in his hand and looked at it for a long time, and Fang Zi smiled coldly.
The seeds of doubt and hatred have long been buried deep in his heart, and at this moment, that seed is like encountering rain, dew, sunshine, and fertilization, and growing madly and vigorously in his heart!
