676. Forced sedation
Songtsen Gampo listened to Jingwen's words, and his heart became more and more afraid. Because he knew that since the mutiny a few years ago, he had no brothers and sisters, and the family was left alone. And now he has been captured to the Tang Dynasty, and Tubo is equivalent to no one in charge. If you have a large army outside, it is fine, but now that the 50,000 elites have been annihilated by Jingwen, it is equivalent to not having the help of the army outside, so will there be any accidents in the country? And the country is also a mess now, first of all, there are sheep and other countries are thinking about recovering the country, although they have just been taught a lesson by Songtsen Gampo, but now that most of their army has been annihilated, will they have the idea of recovering the country again? In addition, the current Tibet is not actually a single-ethnic country, in fact, there are many ethnic groups, and it is not like they have all been condensed into a nation called Tibetans. In the current Tibet, in fact, although the Tubo people account for the main component, there are also many other ethnic groups, mainly conquered. Will they now take advantage of the vacuum of Tibet's internal strength to rebel?
Even, the interior of Tibet is not very peaceful. After he was captured, he is now temporarily represented by Da Lun Lu Dongzan. Although Lu Dongzan successfully took advantage of the climate of the plateau and his own relative speed of mobilization, Jingwen's Tang army successfully returned in vain. But Lu Dongzan's big argument, will there be any dissent? In case Lu Dongzan has a different heart for the position of Zampu in Tibet, then I am afraid it will be miserable. Now Songtsen Gampo has no descendants, and there are no brothers and sisters, that is, there are no orthodox heirs at all. Now that Songtsen Gampo has been captured by the Tang Dynasty, it means that there is no successor to Tubo, and it is impossible to choose a relative to act as an agent. In this case, will Da Lu Dongzan want to seek Zampu's position?
Don't say anything loyal, as a person who aspires to dominate the world, he is suspicious. Anyone who wants to dominate the world must be suspicious, otherwise they would have been secretly pitted. I won't live to achieve great things. Now Songtsen Gampo has also begun to doubt Lu Dongzan's "character". On the one hand, he is a slave for life, and on the other hand, he directly becomes the master of the plateau, so no matter how you look at these two choices, the latter one is better. And now there is almost no risk, Songtsen Gampo's soldiers are completely annihilated, and Songtsen Gampo himself is captured, that risk is almost gone. At that time, Lu Dongzan could completely not redeem Songtsen Gampo, so that if Songtsen Gampo was killed or imprisoned by the Tang Dynasty, he would be able to gain enough prestige in a few years. Become the new Zamp.
Although Lu Dongzan's second son Qinling is also next to Songtsen Gampo, in the face of such a great cause, how many people will care about their son's family affection? Therefore, Songtsen Gampo does not have much foundation in his heart about whether Lu Dongzan will take care of his son.
"No, I can't go on like this, I have to find a way to go back!" Songtsen Gampo thought.
Songtsen Gampo immediately found Cen Wenwen and said, "Lord Cen, Xiao Wang knows that he is wrong. You just let Xiao Wang go back to China! ”
Songtsen Gampo wanted to return to China as soon as possible, so that he could cut off Lu Dongzan's thoughts. Although he didn't know if Lu Dongzan would usurp the throne, he now regarded Lu Dongzan as the first target, so he had to hurry back to stabilize the situation. So. He hoped that Cen Wenwen would let him go back quickly.
Cen Wenwen said: "Zampu, no! Didn't you say that you were going to Chang'an to apologize to the emperor? You can't leave now! I have already sent the matter of you going to Chang'an to apologize for your sins, and I have sent it to the emperor. So you can't leave without permission. If I let you leave without permission, then how can I explain to the emperor? ”
Songtsen Gampo had a toothache, and at first he tried to save his life. was not plotted by Jingwen, so he told Cen Wenwen that he wanted to go to Chang'an to apologize. But now it has become a talisman that he can't leave, but even if he doesn't say it, it's hard for him to leave. Because since he was captured, Cen Wenwen would not release the prisoner without principle, so no matter whether Songtsen Gampo said it or not, Cen Wenwen would ask him to go to Chang'an to apologize. But now the situation has changed, and who knows if he can continue to do his Zampu position, which makes Songtsen Gampo almost crazy. Being so worried all day long made Songtsen Gampo very toothache. Songtsen Gampo didn't dare to gamble, didn't dare to bet on whether Lu Dongzan was loyal. And doubt that this thing, once planted, will immediately take root and sprout, and gradually become a towering tree. Therefore, Songtsen Gampo now suspects that Lu Dongzan wants to usurp the position of our Zampu, so he is very scared.
After Cen Wenwen was unable to get what he wanted, Songtsen Gampo could only go back to his room to rest.
And Jingwen came to Songtsen Gampo's room again and took the initiative to ask: "How is Zampu's life lately?" ”
"I eat and drink well, and I have nothing to do!" Songtsen Gampo said.
"Is it the habit of eating original vegetables in Zampu? Our Central Plains culture is broad and profound, and just one dish is very good, not comparable to your Tibetans. I'm not going to hide it from you, I'm actually a chef by training. Change, I will definitely cook it myself and invite Zampu to have a meal. We're old rivals! Jingwen said.
Songtsan Gampo still had a toothache, but he still said calmly: "I will understand the general's cooking skills another day, Xiao Wang is just a small country in the wilderness, naturally it can't be compared with Datang!" ”
Songtsan Gampo didn't dare to eat the dishes made by Jingwen, who knows if Jingwen would be drugged in it! And Jingwen can also clearly see that the current Songtsen Gampo is in a very unstable mood, and his composure seems to be pretended. I don't know how to be anxious yet, because the situation in the country is not very stable. Now, if Songtsen Gampo goes back late, who knows if there will be any problems.
"Pei Xingjian, keep an eye on me! If he dares to run away, I'll do him right away! Now he was very anxious in his heart, and he was likely to run away. If he escapes, then you're welcome, just kill him! Jingwen said.
And Pei Xingjian, who was next to him, also immediately received the order, because his task during this period of time was to find a way to make this Songtsan Gampo. But this Songtsen Gampo was actually very cunning and didn't give Pei Xingjian any chance at all. Now this Songtsen Gampo is in a hurry, so this is a very good opportunity. When the time comes, it's time to clean him up. (To be continued......)
