Chapter 255: The Only Way Out
Li Xiang walked around here, and shook his head from time to time, whenever Li Xiang shook his head, Prime Minister Mi Du felt that his heart was pinched, why did you shake your head? Speak it out and let us know.
In fact, Prime Minister Midu and Tuyuhun Khan didn't find out that their thinking had now begun to follow Li Xiang, which was a very terrible thing for a country's high-level leaders.
"I thought about it carefully, even if we are honest with each other and do everything as I say, we don't have enough time to send troops to support you, and see if there are any other ways to delay time for us."
Li Xiang wandered around for five minutes, but he didn't really think about anything in his heart, just made some body movements to make you people nervous, and now he is waiting for you to say it yourself.
Procrastinating for time?
"Your Highness is here, I heard that Lu Dongzan, the prime minister of the Tubo Kingdom, is in Chang'an, can I find him?"
Prime Minister Midu suddenly thought of this, he guessed that Li Xiang came to the grassland quickly, it should have something to do with Lu Dongzan, but what was the matter, he couldn't guess, after all, he was not Guanyin Bodhisattva, and there was no way to pinch his fingers.
"I came to the grassland because of him, I think you can also find out, he wants to unite with our Tang Dynasty above the court, and then destroy your Tuyuhun, this is the main reason why he came to Chang'an."
There is no need to hide this kind of thing, it will be spread soon, as for the things that follow, as long as Li Shimin blocks it properly, no one should spread it.
"Ah......h
Li Xiang looked at the two people in front of him in some surprise, it was understandable that Prime Minister Mi Du shouted, after all, he was the highest level of Tuyuhun here, what was the matter with the old guard next to him?
Li Xiang suddenly thought that he had watched a TV series, that is, Hong Kong actor Chen Xiaochun played Lu Ding Ji, when he went to Wu Sangui's palace, he was also talking with Wu Sangui's son Wu Yingying, Wu Sangui pretended to be an old guard, could it be that this is also the case in front of him?
Whether this is the case or not, Li Xiang will not debunk this person, if it is really Tuyuhun Khan, then it will be even better, and the provincial prime minister will go back and pass the word.
"But don't worry, our Datang didn't agree to their proposal, we hope that all countries can coexist peacefully, if there are fewer and fewer countries, it will not be good for this society, not to mention that your two countries have just concluded an agreement, how can we come to attack you? But there are some restless people in my country, and they have already begun to contact Lu Dongzan......"
Slap a sweet jujube, slap a sweet jujube, such a routine Li Xiang can be regarded as playing clearly, on the one hand, tell you that the court has not yet made a decision, on the other hand, it also tells you that there are people in the court who want to do this, after all, many people in Datang have ideas about this grassland, especially after the auction of the northern grassland, many people have calculated their operating profits here, if you can still divide the southern grassland, then some things will be even happier.
"Your Highness, you must think about yourself, the Tubo people are like tigers and wolves, if you are directly bordering them, there will definitely be more border conflicts than with us, isn't this situation the best now?"
Prime Minister Midu now wants to die, although he guessed that Lu Dongzan had something to do with Datang, but he didn't expect it to be such a thing, now there are tigers in front of him and wolves in the back, Tuyuhun really has no idea.
"You don't care about the affairs of the Tang Dynasty first, I can press it for you first, you have to think about how to resist the Tubo people, the Tubo army is about to cross the border."
Li Xiang saw that Prime Minister Midu was about to talk about the topic away, and quickly moved back, only by putting pressure on you, can you think of the only way to save you, that is, to become a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty.
"This ......"
Prime Minister Midu didn't know what to say for a while, but now it is clear that it is a dead end, Datang can't support them, and he can't resist the attack of the Tubo people by his own strength, how to hold on?
"It's a pity that the Tubo people are not Turkic, if they are Turks, just by virtue of my reputation in the Tang Dynasty, I can make these people retreat thirty miles......"
Li Xiang saw that these two guys didn't go to that in their minds, so they could only take a risk and remind them a little, and he also hoped that these two guys could take the right path and take his Li Xiang's right path.
Datang's fame?
Prime Minister Midu didn't hear other words, but he just heard this sentence, looking at the world, I am afraid that the only thing that can make the Tubo Kingdom afraid is the Tang Empire in the north, but now the Tang Empire cannot support them, so is the reputation of the Tang Dynasty useless in the Tubo Kingdom?
This won't happen, many countries in the world look up to Datang, and they have also sent batches of envoys to Datang, even if Tubo says that they don't care, won't your prime minister also go to Chang'an to pay tribute?
There are also many countries that call Li Shimin the Khan of Heaven......
Prime Minister Midu's eyes lit up, he seemed to have found a way to save Tuyuhun, but at this moment he had to ask the Khan's consent, this matter was even bigger than the last time, if he made his own decisions, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Prime Minister Midu casually found an excuse, saying that he wanted to take a break, and Li Xiang also knew that the two of them had to discuss it, and only then could we continue to get along, otherwise we would immediately turn our faces.
"Vassal?"
Li Xiang's hearing is amazing, and he didn't hear the other words clearly, but these three words were still heard clearly, this was said by Tuyuhun Khan, it is estimated that Prime Minister Midu made a suggestion, but Tuyuhun Khan was a little reluctant, but Li Xiang didn't care, as long as you came to this road, we will give you a certain amount of time, then you will definitely know how to choose.
It is certainly a shame to call others a tribute, and it is very likely that it will be noted in the history books, so that you will never be able to turn over, but it can keep your country and your current prosperous and rich life, Li Xiang knows that these nobles are used to living a good life, but they are not willing to be prisoners, as long as they are given enough time to think, they will naturally understand how to choose.
Li Xiang observed the faces of the two of them, and saw that Tuyuhun Khan nodded heavily, and a big stone in his heart was put down.
But the sound of horses' hooves could be heard in the distance......
