Chapter 996: Is He Still a King?
Qian Ping can see that the King of Zhennan and His Royal Highness the Taisun in front of him are the same kind of people, they don't ask for these vain things, they want real benefits.
King Zhennan also saw it very clearly, although the army of the Tang Dynasty has come over, if you want to occupy the entire Nanzhao, I am afraid it is not enough, especially now that the situation in the royal city is unstable, more troops are needed to control the situation.
No matter how things develop, as long as there are not many people coming from the Tang Dynasty's army, then the King of Zhennan can still control the situation, but if the Tang Dynasty's army comes over, then the King of Zhennan will not be able to control many things.
"The prince misunderstood us with this, we don't want to increase the army at all, we have just pacified the judgment of the four major toasts, we still have a lot of things in Sichuan, and our shop is not willing to take care of this side of the matter, but Nanzhao is our vassal state, your Royal Highness the king is still recognized, and the letter was written by him......"
Qian Ping was gossiping a lot on the side, which means that it has nothing to do with us, the king of the vassal state has asked the suzerainty for help, are we just standing and watching? If we stand and watch, then who would want to become a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty in the future?
The root of the matter lies in you, and we are doing this to show the kings of other vassal states, usually you treat our Tang Dynasty as the suzerain, and when we really encounter something, we must have to do it, and we must not stand by and watch the excitement.
"The prince also has to understand our emperor's embarrassment, if you don't send troops, of course you can get by, but aren't your king's words useless to our emperor? At that time, it will be the face of the whole country of your Nanzhao Kingdom. β
Qian Ping flickered for a while, so that the mind of the king of Zhennan was a little confused, for a while it was the face of the whole country of Nanzhao, and for a while, it was the normal dispatch of troops by you, and finally the king of Nanzhao shook his head, and said that it had not changed anything for a long time, and this letter was likely to increase the troops of the Tang Dynasty after it arrived in the capital.
"I hope the chief steward will take care of it, can he still be called the king now? He can't be considered a king at all, except for the thousands of people under his command, he can't command anyone, as long as the governor can help mediate, after I become the king of Nanzhao, the tribute will be doubled. β
King Zhennan gritted his teeth and said, in the past, the tribute to the Tang Dynasty accounted for about one-tenth of their financial revenue, but now if it is doubled, it will account for one-fifth of the financial revenue, this amount is already very large, and it will affect the lives of the common people.
"Ouch, the prince really thinks too highly of the old slave, if it is some ordinary little things, the old slave can really do it, but this is a major military matter, let alone me, General Qin can't do it here, your king wants to write to our emperor, who can stop this, if we stop it, it will be the crime of bullying the king, not only my head, my whole family has to lose their heads."
The conditions are indeed good, but compared with the conditions of His Royal Highness Taisun, there is still a gap, not to mention that we are not here to benefit this time, we are here to ask for your entire country this time.
King Zhennan looked at Qian Ping's face, if there was not a trace of reason now, King Zhennan really wanted to cut Qian Ping, do you say that you people can't live a good life in the north? You have to come to our place to mix, and that's the result of your mixing.
The coup d'Γ©tat is about to be won, and the king of Zhennan is about to ascend to that throne, but because of the Tang army, the king of Zhennan has to shrink his troops, as if his victory did not happen, and his people are also angry, all of this is done by you Datang.
Qian Ping looked at the uncertain look on this guy's face, and he could think of what he was thinking with his toes, but then again, didn't our Datang help you? If it weren't for our Datang help, you guy would also be in danger, to put it bluntly, you would have taken advantage of the contradiction between the two of you, and you can't blame anyone else for this, you will blame yourself.
"Does the words of the chief manager represent the last attitude of Datang? Do you have to keep increasing your army? β
The king of Zhennan is also bloody, and now there is no such kung fu to hide, if the Tang army continues to increase, it will definitely be fatal damage to him, even if it is a desperate move, then do you have to give it a try?
"What I say can only represent myself, I am just an old slave of the East Palace, can I represent the entire Tang Dynasty? If I can represent the whole of Datang, then I can do a lot of things. β
King Zhennan is ready to turn his face, who knows that Qian Ping said this, King Zhennan is like a deflated ball, he really doesn't know how to say it, think about what Qian Ping said is right, this guy is the chief eunuch of the East Palace, and he can't even represent the entire East Palace, how can he represent the entire Tang Dynasty?
If he turns his face because of his words, it's really nonsense.
King Zhennan wanted to say cruel words, but he didn't know how to put it, Qian Ping had already made it very clear just now, people are just an old minion, if you say cruel things to him, it will also reduce your identity, not to mention that you have to do it if you put cruel words, otherwise you won't explain it to the following.
"The prince doesn't have to be in such a hurry, although this letter has arrived in Chang'an, our army may also come over, but we have to go back sooner or later, as long as the places are safe, then why do we need to find trouble here? It is better for the prince to gather his own forces as before, in order to ...... in the future."
Qian Ping saw that the king of Zhennan was a little embarrassed, and at this time he had to show him a way, before our army came, we had to pacify the two major local forces, and when our strength was stronger than yours, then there were some things needless to say, and now at this time, we have to let us come in peacefully, and we will not come in with a shot.
Later?
King Zhennan looked outside a little confused, the Tang army has increased again, can there be a future?
With the strength of the whole country, it may be able to take down the existing Datang army, but if it continues to increase the number of troops, then I am afraid there will be no hope at all.
But after the fight, the strength of Nanzhao and the whole of the country has been exhausted, and the Tang army still has ......
