Chapter 54: The Situation

At this point, Danajian had a clearer plan in his heart, he stared straight at Xiao Lingjiang, and said: "Although I don't know much about the princess's past affairs, but now I see, the princess is not bad in terms of appearance or mental means, and she is by no means comparable to ordinary girls. ”

"The princess broke his plan in Yaozhou before, according to my understanding of Gongji, he will definitely regard you as a fierce enemy of Xifan, and he can't wait to get rid of him as soon as possible, even if he asks for the king to marry the princess of Dazhou, and he will never welcome back a princess as tricky and dangerous as you and put it next to the king. Unless ......"

He paused, and slowly spit out a few words: "Unless it is, he didn't plan to let the princess reach the royal capital alive." ”

At present, he was provoked to send someone to kill Xiao Lingjiang is plan, and I don't know how many waves there will be in the road before or in the future.

After all, the road to harmony is long, and since ancient times, although it is rare for princesses to die on the way, it is not impossible.

"It's the princess who successfully arrived at the royal capital, you are a princess of a different race, you have no support, and Gongji has spoken from the side, don't say that you are favored by the king, and it is difficult to say that this life will not be repaid."

"However, with the Nang's, it's different......"

Danajian moved his sore neck slightly, and then continued: "Although the power of the Bon nobles has been greatly suppressed, there is some background in the end, and there are still concubines and the eldest prince Yundan in the palace.

"And for the Na Nang clan, the princess has gained a firm foothold in the royal capital, and in turn can help my Na Nang clan and help the Bon nobles regain the upper hand." As he spoke, a glint in his eyes flashed, "Isn't this the best of both worlds and mutually beneficial?" ”

As the native religion of Western Tibet, Bon was originally in an absolutely dominant position, with the right to participate in and discuss politics, and was very powerful and had many followers. When the Western Tibetan army went on the expedition, there were often Bon shamans accompanying the army, using witchcraft to improve the morale of the Tibetan army.

Buddhism, on the other hand, was just a foreign religion that was introduced from the Nibora area, and it did not become a climate in the early days.

However, the over-imposing presence of Bon was not a good thing for the king.

Although Western Tibet was unified, it was not a centralized state in which all the power of the Great Zhou Dynasty was attributed to the emperor, but the nobles of all parts of Western Tibet nominally accepted the leadership of the royal capital with the king of Western Tibet as the core.

On the bright side, all places worship Zampu as the king. However, behind closed doors, the nobles everywhere are the emperors of the soil, and they have great autonomy.

As the primitive religion of Western Tibet, Bon did not simply defend the royal power. Each nobleman has his own team of trusted Bon priests, who have accompanied the development of each noble family from ancient times to the present. Such a religion would only make the aristocracy scattered, and it would be difficult to centralize power in the monarch.

Then, Buddhism, which was introduced to the land of Western Tibet at this time, was the best tool used by the king of Western Tibet to solve the disobedience of the nobles.

Spiritually, the ministers and the common people had a unified faith, and politically, the king of Xifan could control the divine power from the top down, replacing the Bon divine power that was originally controlled by the nobles, so as to create a centralized royal power.

The dispute over Buddha Ben in full swing, to put it bluntly, is the open and secret struggle between the king of Xifan and the nobles.

From the previous king of Xifan to the current Muchi Zampu, they are all committed to suppressing Bon in order to centralize power. As the royal power became more and more powerful, it was also more able to concentrate on the outside world, so in recent years, the pace of Western Tibet's external expansion became more and more obvious, and even offended the Zhou Dynasty from time to time.

Buddhism and Bon are in contention, and if one side wants to rise, it must completely suppress the other. Under the drastic implementation of the King of Xifan, the upstart of Buddhism was highly used, and although the Bon nobles like the Na Nang clan were secretly unwilling, it was difficult for them to fight back.

They can only hope that one day, when the emperor is old, the king's power is weak, or the eldest prince Yundan with the blood of the Nang clan will succeed to the throne in the future, and the Bon nobles will definitely be able to regain their former glory.

However, with the birth of the second concubine Cai Bang's young son Wo Song, Mu Chi Zampu's attitude towards the main concubine and the eldest prince Yun Dan is more and more worth pondering.

Once Wosson grows up, according to Muchi Zampu's determination to suppress the Bon religion, the throne will inevitably fall to Woson.

In this way, the Bon nobles will have no chance to turn over.

It is that Wo Song is not yet an adult, and once Mu Chi Zampu makes up his mind to support his young son, he will inevitably suppress the old Bon faction represented by the Na Nang clan again. At that time, they will also face a catastrophe of destruction.

There was not much time left for the Bon nobility.

Thinking of this, Danajian was secretly frightened, Xiao Lingjiang was afraid that he had already seen through the situation in Xifan, so he dared to come so fearlessly.

He couldn't help but smile bitterly: "The princess really sees the situation thoroughly, and also grasps my psychology, in such a situation, my Nang clan seems to have no choice but to take the initiative to seek cooperation with you." ”

Xiao Lingjiang raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "The city lord still has expectations, why should he be so helpless and sentimental now?" ”

She let go of the hand that was holding Danajian's neck, flicked her sleeves, and smiled leisurely: "In my opinion, this cooperation is the best choice for the city lord. Me...... I can't say it, it can really help the city lord regain his former power in this battle between Zampu and the nobles. ”

Without the amateur hand on his neck that was about to take someone's life at any time, Dana Jian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he stood up and looked at Xiao Lingjiang with a smile: "The princess's words, I naturally believe it." In this way, then we will have a happy cooperation. ”

For the Bon aristocracy, the power of the family is more important than the power of the king. Since the king does not remember the old feelings and wantonly suppresses them, how can they be arrested again?

After agreeing on the cooperation, Xiao Lingjiang walked out of the room leisurely.

In the courtyard, the guards with swords were still surrounded, and Danajian waved his sleeves: "Go down, remember, tonight's events must not be spread out!" ”

Gongji is probably also secretly observing his movements with Xiao Lingjiang, and everything must be calm. In this way, no one knows about the murder, and no one knows about the cooperation and conspiracy.

"Yes!" The guards took the order and left.

A figure also emerged from the shadows and came to Xiao Lingjiang's side.

"Got things settled?"

Xiao Ling Jiang bowed his head, and said with a smile: "It's all talked, let's go back and rest." ”

"Okay." Pei You replied in a low voice, walking away from her side by side.

Danajian watched the two of them disappear into the night, and couldn't help but be secretly afraid, a Xiao Lingjiang had already dealt with it like that, but he didn't expect that there was still Pei You, the prince of Zhenbei, guarding in the dark, fortunately he didn't act rashly, otherwise this life would be really unsafe.

It may be a good thing that such people can take advantage of it......
