Righteous and stern, with a strong voice.

Li Zhi's indifferent and angry attitude really made Zan Xiruo tremble.

As the prime minister of a country, Zan Xiruo can't keep calm at the moment, the only thought in his mind at this moment is that the Tang Dynasty is about to raise troops against Tubo, and the country is about to die, and he must turn the tide.

The meaning of "turning the tide" is not how to mobilize soldiers and horses to resist the sword soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, but to do our best to eliminate this military disaster before it happens.

Once the soldiers are mobilized, it will be really too late.

The sense of urgency in his heart made Zan Xiruo lose his calmness and proportion, and Li Zhi's fierce rebuke made Zan Xiruo even more frightened.

Trying to organize the wording, Zan Xiruo said slowly: "Your Majesty, the situation in the Tubo Kingdom is turbulent, the foreign minister is just the prime minister, many people in the court oppose it, and the foreign minister has no time to clear it, so he left many political enemies ......"

"The assassination of Li Jungong was committed by the political enemies of the foreign ministers in the Tubo court, and the foreign ministers knew that no matter how they explained, the situation could not be reversed, and it was impossible for Li Jungong to recover, but after all, this matter was done by a small group of thieves, why did Your Majesty raise swords and soldiers, and trap the people of the two countries in fire and water?"

Zan Xiruo said and looked up into Li Zhi's eyes, and from the eyes of the son of the Heavenly Khan, Zan Xiruo saw Sen Sen's killing intent, and the self-esteem of killing with irritability.

Zanxiruo's heart couldn't help trembling, but he still said bravely: "The assassination of Li Jungong was instigated by the Tubo people, and the foreign minister is irrefutable, but as the prime minister of Tubo, the foreign minister only hopes to make up for it as much as possible afterwards and extinguish His Majesty's anger at a heavy price." ”

After hesitating for a moment, Zan Xiruo gritted his teeth and said: "Tubo is willing to exchange the land of the Golden Tooth Department for the tolerance and understanding of the Son of Heaven of the Tang Dynasty. ”

Li Zhi sneered: "Is the Golden Tooth Department your Tibetan?" You say give it, why? ”

Zan Xiruo's expression was calm.

The Golden Tooth Department is indeed not Tibetan, to be precise, the Golden Tooth Department has always been attached to the Six Kingdoms of Nanzhao, but it has not been established and has always existed in the form of a tribe.

Praise Xiruo's calmness is because Tubo has the right to speak in the matter of the Golden Tooth Department.

It can be said that over the years, the Golden Tooth has existed in the form of a primitive tribe under the watchful eye of the Six Kingdoms of Nanzhao and the Tang Dynasty, and it would not have survived without the support of Tubo.

Of course, Tubo's support for it is not to do good deeds and accumulate virtues, but in terms of geographical location, the Golden Tooth Department is a natural buffer zone, and Tubo needs this buffer land to maintain relations with the Tang Dynasty and the Six Kingdoms of Nanzhao.

Now that the situation in Tibet is critical, and the Tang soldiers and horses are about to go on the expedition, under this situation, Zan Xiruo has finally made up his mind.

Sending out a buffer zone in exchange for the forgiveness of the Tang Dynasty and eliminating the impending crisis of the country, this transaction is a loss, but it is not a big loss, it is a helpless move to give up the car to protect the handsome.

Hearing that Zan Xiruo took the initiative to send out the gold teeth, Li Zhi's cold expression finally relaxed a little, and his eyes quietly flashed with joy.

The fruits of victory have been handed to him, but the play is not over.

At this time, if Li Zhi suddenly changed his face, and he gladly accepted the gold tooth with a cheap look that he couldn't ask for, then all the layout and cost in front of him would be in vain.

So Li Zhi snorted coldly: "In this way, I still want to thank you for giving the Golden Tooth Department to the Tang Dynasty?" ”

"A wild and miasma land, if I want it, does the prime minister think that my king's soldiers can't take it by force with swords and halberds, so I have to give it to me?"

Zan Xiruo hurriedly said: "The foreign minister has no such intention, the foreign minister is just paying the price on behalf of Tubo, in order to calm the anger of the Tang Dynasty and eliminate the undue military and man-made disasters of the two countries. ”

Li Zhi's face finally eased, but his eyes were still indifferent.

After being silent for a long time, Li Zhi suddenly shook his head and said, "I still can't agree!" ”

Zan Xiruo exclaimed: "Why? ”

Li Zhi said coldly: "Li Qinzai, the prince of Liaodong County, is lying in the mansion, his life and death are still unknown, if he has three long and two short, but I have taken the golden tooth department, wouldn't the people of the world scold me for being a mercenary king?" ”

Staring at Zan Xiruo's eyes, Li Zhi said slowly, word by word: "If Li Jungong is alive, I can follow your advice, collect the golden tooth department, and stop the sword soldiers." If Li Jungong dies, the Tang Dynasty vows to destroy Tubo and never die! ”

"This is my final decision, and it will never be easier!"

…………

Zanxiruo walked out of the Taiji Palace in despair, and the moment he walked out of the palace gate, he stumbled on the spot for some reason and almost fell.

Then Zan Xiruo woke up like a dream, and went straight to the British Mansion with an anxious face.

The British government was still closed, and the news of Li Qinzai's serious injury had spread throughout the city, and many courtiers and generals who had close personal relations with the Li family came to visit one after another, but they were all politely but resolutely persuaded to retire by Li Qinzai's father, Li Siwen.

The seriously injured Li Qinzai will never see outsiders, which is also part of the plan.

If anything goes wrong, the bureau laid out by Li Qinzai will completely collapse.

When Zan Xiruo came to the British Mansion and asked to visit Li Qinzai with Xiaoxiao, Feng Su, who was on duty outside the door, immediately recognized him, fortunately, this thing did not forget the role he should play, and the moment he saw Zan Xiruo, Feng Su suddenly became angry and drew his sword to each other.

Zanxiruo swallowed his anger, let Feng Su point a knife at his nose, and repeatedly asked to visit Li Qinzai, but it was really impossible to ask Feng Su about Li Qinzai's current situation, but Feng Su didn't say a word, just coldly burst out a word, "Get out!" ”

Zan Xiruo had no choice but to get out, and returned to the pavilion in a huff, anxious alone, thinking about the country and worrying about the monarch, and full of sorrow.

Inside the National Mansion.

It was rumored that Li Jungong, who was seriously injured and was about to die, stretched his waist, burped a long full child, and waved his hand with satisfaction to order the maid to remove the food plate.

"Today's dish is a little salty, warn the cook once, the loser's thing, doesn't the salt at home cost money?" Li Qinzai commented dissatisfiedly.

The maid retired in fear.

Sitting cross-legged at the low table, Li Qinzai picked up the pen and paper and pondered for a moment, his expression became more and more rippling, and then he wrote like a god.

After a while, I drew a picture and held it in my hand to appreciate it carefully, and the more I looked at it, the more satisfied I became.

Over the years, the level of Chinese painting has improved a lot, and if my masterpiece is not a little unethical, it is enough to hang it on the wall of the study.

There was a gentle knock on the door, and Li Qinzai put down the painting in his hand and came in.

Kim Da-yeon walked into the house dressed in plain clothes, and her expression was still cold.

She had a bowl of medicinal soup in her hand, and when she came in, she put it on the low table.

"Drank it." Kim Da-yeon said in a cold tone.

Li Qinzai was stunned: "Don't drink!" ”

Kim Da-yeon frowned.

Li Qinzai didn't obey when he was killed: "Jin Lian poisoned Da Lang, and he said 'Da Lang, drink the medicine', you said coldly and drank it, why?" ”

Jin Dayon frowned and said, "Who is Jin Lian?" Who is Da Lang? ”

"Jin Lian, it's your own family, she looks like a peach and a plum, and her heart is like a snake and scorpion, but the strange thing is that all the men in the world seem to want to have a ...... with her."

Kim Da-yeon doesn't understand, and she doesn't bother to listen, she has been together for a long time, she already knows Li Qinzai's temperament very well, she knows that most of the time what comes out of Li Qinzai's mouth, she must not believe it, because it's all nonsense, whoever believes it is fooled, and it is different when it comes to it.
