Chapter 163: Thousands of Miles to Ride Alone
Stopping the war horse outside the post station, after a day of bumps on horseback, Lu Dongzan had already woken up, and the whole person was swaying on the horse's back like paralysis. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
This is because of the collision between the stomach and the horse's back for a long time, and Lu Dongzan's tossed meat and eight vegetarians have no spirit at all.
After Li Mu, who turned over and dismounted, relieved Lu Dongzan, he obviously felt that the other party breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Mu smiled when he saw Lu Dongzan, who seemed to have been reborn, even if Lu Dongzan called himself a Tubo warrior, he would be uncomfortable if he was treated like a pig on this horse for a day.
What's more, Lu Dongzan is also the Tubo minister second only to Songtsen Gampo in Tubo, it can be said that he is a nobleman among the nobles in Tubo, where has he suffered from this kind of turbulence.
Lu Dongzan's eyes were full of doubts, and he never understood where the Tang man in front of him had the courage to go to Tubo alone.
"Don't look at it, go in, if you don't want me to tie you up again." Li Mu stretched out his foot and kicked Lu Dongzan's buttocks.
Lu Dongzan, who felt humiliated, looked at Li Mu angrily and threatened: "I am the minister of Tibet, you can't insult me like this." ”
"Smack"
Li Mu kicked at the place just now, and said without cutting it: "I know, if I didn't want you to see how I changed Tubo's will, I would have solved you on the Baqiao Bridge as early as possible, and you still need to be in such trouble?" ”
"You." Lu Dongzan, who was threatened, pointed at Li Mu with his finger.
"What are you, I'll cut out your tongue if you talk too much." Li Mu lifted his cloak to reveal the three sabers on his left side.
Seeing this situation, Lu Dongzan thought of Li Mu's great power on the Baqiao, and more than a dozen Tubo warriors couldn't help each other, plus he didn't eat this day, and he was tossed on horseback and was weak, so he had to helplessly push open the door of the post station.
Entering the post station, the world inside was completely different from the outside world, and under the barrier of two doors, the icy cold wind outside lost its direction.
The coldness brought in by the suddenly opened door of the originally warm post station made Yi Cheng instantly notice Li Mu and the others who walked in.
After seeing Li Mu dressed up, especially when he noticed the jade pendant hanging from his waist, Yi Cheng knew that this was a nobleman.
"I don't know what this noble man commands?" As a post station contracted and operated by the government, one of the most important functions is to provide a place for people who transmit palace documents and military information or officials to and from the palace to and from the place where they can eat and stay and change horses.
Another point is that all the expenses of the post station are free of charge, and it is up to the government to bear it itself.
After seeing Yi Cheng, Li Mu handed the seal letter representing his title to the other party to check, and said, "Prepare a room for me, and I will rest here tonight." ”
After checking Li Mu's seal letter, Yi Cheng respectfully handed the seal back and said respectfully: "Sir, the little one will go down and prepare." ”
After speaking, he hesitated and pointed to Lu Dongzan, who was sitting on the side, and asked, "Doesn't this need a room?" ”
Lu Dongzan, who was pointed, did not speak, but glanced at Li Mu.
"He doesn't need to." After speaking, Li Mu pretended to put his hand into his arms, but actually took out a gold leaf from the independent space and handed it to Yi Cheng and instructed: "Prepare some food for me and bring it to the room in a while, and a sweat medicine." ”
The gold leaf was specially used by Mei'er for Li Mu's expenses in Datang, and the reason why the gold leaf was prepared was entirely because it was more convenient to hold gold than copper coins in Datang.
It's just that these gold leaves have never been used, but Li Mu used them this time, and the reason why he would give the post post a gold leaf was completely because he didn't want to use the post station's services in vain.
In addition, it is much better to do things with money than without money, not to mention that there is a special requirement in this.
"Yes sir, ah." Yi Cheng, who originally saw Jin Yezi's face full of joy, was obviously stunned when he heard Li Mu's request to prepare a sweat medicine.
"Don't ask too much, hurry down and prepare, the extra will be regarded as a reward for you." Li Mu replied with a word of resignation, then turned around and took Lu Dongzan to the room.
Although Yi Cheng wondered why this lord had prepared the sweat medicine, he still prepared everything, the meal was the best in the post station, and the sweat medicine was prepared in two servings, both of which were full of weight and had good medicinal effects.
Who made Li Mu the first nobleman to spend money on rewards, or a gold leaf.
It's enough for Yi Cheng to serve well.
After putting all the food on the table and handing over the sweat medicine to Li Mu personally, Yi Cheng respectfully exited the room and closed the door for him.
At this time, the sky was already dark.
Li Mu pushed open the window and looked at the night outside, the sky was extraordinarily peaceful tonight, as if it was about to snow.
And Lu Dongzan sat there very bumpy, filling his stomach.
"It's snowing." Li Mu saw a snowflake floating in the sky.
Lu Dongzan, who was trying to fill his stomach, immediately put down the bones in his hand after hearing Li Mu's words, looked at the small snowflakes falling outside the window and said contemptuously: "This is also called snow, I think this kind of snow in Tubo can't be called snow." ”
Lu Dongzan, who has been away from Tibet for a long time, clearly remembers that when the grassland was still green, he came to the Tang Dynasty with a delegation from Tibet to ask for relatives.
In the blink of an eye, the current Tubo should have turned white.
Thinking of this, Lu Dongzan reminded Li Mu: "Tang people, I admire your bravery, but I can't say that you can't go to Tibet, there is a home given to us by the gods, it belongs to the Tubo people completely, and the Tang people can't go anywhere, not to mention that the current Tubo must be ruled by the white devil, and even we Tubo people are afraid of his power." ”
"yes, I know." Li Mu closed the window and turned around and said: "In the Central Plains of Tubo, people will feel weak all over, like being choked and unable to breathe, especially in winter Tubo is more terrible than usual, the whole land is covered with heavy snow, and the most terrible thing is that the white-haired wind is raging. ”
Li Mu, who sat back at the table, took out the sweat medicine handed to him by Yi Cheng and poured it into the ceramic bowl in front of him, then reached out and picked up a bottle of wine on the table and poured it into the bowl, so that the sweat medicine dissolved in the wine.
Lu Dongzan looked at Li Mu's series of actions, as if he hadn't seen it, he was very curious about why the Tang man in front of him had the courage to go to Tubo since he knew the situation in Tubo.
"Tang people, since you know that this season's Tubo is more terrible than usual, why do you still want to go, you must know that at this time, even the Tubo people dare not guarantee that they will be able to come down safely from the heavy snow blockade of Tubo."
Li Mu stirred the wine in the bowl with chopsticks, and when he saw that it was almost stirred, he handed the wine to Lu Dongzan and said, "Drink it, if you don't want me to knock you out again at night and hang you on the beam?" ”
After taking Li Mu's wine bowl, Lu Dongzan still asked, "Tell me the reason." ”
"Yes, I'll tell you why when I get to the territory of Tibet." Li Mu replied lightly after watching Lu Dongzan drink all the wine in the bowl.
The sweat medicine prepared by Yi Cheng for Li Mu was really enough and strong enough, and Lu Dongzan, who had just drunk the drink to Li Mu, slapped his head on the table.
After seeing Lu Dongzan asleep, Li Mu stood up. (To be continued.) )
