Chapter 66: The Tibetan Messenger
Zanpo returned to Wuhai City and reported to the Lunqin Tomb, and he talked to Li Jing about the results.
On Qinling smiled slightly, he didn't take these to heart, Wuhai City is no longer the original Wuhai City, he has been in Qinghai for so many years, and he has strengthened Wuhai City many times.
Today's Wuhai City is described as impregnable, it is not an exaggeration at all, if the Tang army wants to conquer Wuhai City, it must use more than ten times the strength of the defenders to be able to storm and take Wuhai City!
"I see, you can go back and rest!"
On the Qinling Road.
"But ......"
"Okay, you don't have to worry, the Tubo people don't dare to do anything to us!"
On Qinling comforted Zanpo a few words, turned around and left, he still has a lot of things to deal with!
The envoy sent to Chang'an, calculating the time, should almost arrive, as long as he convinces the Tang Emperor, he can relieve Li Jing's siege, Tuyuhun is still his after all.
Moreover, he already knew that Li Jing adopted Xue Rengui's plan at the beginning to attack Haikou by surprise, wanting to attack Wuhai City on both sides.
On Qinling has long sent the elite to unite with the Wuhai defenders to exterminate the surprise attack force of the Tang army!
……
The envoys sent by Qinling, after a lot of hardships, finally came to Chang'an City, and they handed over the documents to the officials in charge of reception!
"We ask to meet the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!"
The envoy of the Qinling made a request that he should see the emperor as soon as possible, and the Qinling was still waiting for their good news in Qinghai!
"Please go down to stay, I will play this matter to Your Majesty, you just have to wait with peace of mind!"
Zhang Wuji, the host and guest waiter, arched his hand and said.
"When will that be?"
Habhatai, the envoy of the Chinling, asked.
He was in a hurry to see the emperor, negotiate peace with the Tang Emperor, and let the Tang Emperor order Li Jing to be recalled.
But there is not too much effort, it is wasted here, and the Qinling is still waiting for him to go back and report the good news!
He didn't know that it was not the emperor Li Xian of the Tang Dynasty who could call the shots now, but the regent Li Jing, and it was destined that their plan would fail this time.
The host and guest waiter Zhang Wuji glanced at the other party, found the servants of the host and guest division, and brought these people from Tubo to the residence prepared by the Tang Dynasty for their Fanbang, and the host and guest waiter Zhang Wuji threw his sleeves away!
"This ......"
Habuhatai's face was pale, how can he say that he Tubo is also a big country of the same level as the Tang Dynasty, the other party is picking on people like this, is he not taking Dabo in his eyes, and there is no etiquette The number of etiquette that a country should have?
If it weren't for the future of Tubo, he would have turned around and left a long time ago, and if he dared to treat him with such an attitude, for the sake of the future of Tubo, he could only swallow his anger!
In desperation, Habhatai had no choice but to follow the servants of the main and guest division out of the main and guest division, and the servants led them to the residence arranged for the Tibetan envoy, and without saying a word, he turned around and left.
Habu Hatai and others are half dead, the officials of the Tang Dynasty are too ignorant of etiquette, and when they see the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, they must sue them well!
"What now? I didn't see the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, how could I ask the emperor of the Tang Dynasty to issue an edict to withdraw the troops! We can't wait here, but we are still waiting for our good news! ”
Habhatai glanced at his entourage and said.
Since there is no way to see the Tang Emperor on the front, then start from the side, or elsewhere, as long as he can see the Tang Emperor, he will do whatever it takes to complete it!
His retinue bowed their heads, they knew what to do, and they didn't encounter such a situation.
Habhatai's face is not very good, this is a bunch of waste, the chain fell at the critical moment, and if they were asked to find a way to solve the problem, they became dumb and did not say a word.
"Don't think that if you don't open your mouth, you won't have anything, but if you spoil your plan, what good fruit can you eat?"
Habhatai spoke again.
Look at me, everyone, and I'll look at you!
They finally put their heads down, they really can't do anything!
Just when Habhatai was about to get angry, one of his attendants stood up and saluted: "My lord, I have an idea that I don't know if it will work!"
"What's the solution, say it quickly!"
Habhatai rushed up, grabbed the other man's arm, didn't care what he thought, speak up before making a decision!
The man said his thoughts, that is, they went out for a stroll, visited all the officials of the Tang Dynasty, and could always find someone who could talk, and they could bribe this official with money, so that the other party could match them and contact the Tang Emperor!
After hearing this, Habhatai felt that it made sense, and immediately asked everyone to bring valuable objects and go around!
A group of entourages took valuables and set off to the residences of various officials to visit them in person!
The actions of the Tibetan envoy, after meeting a person, finally saw hope!
This person is Empress Wei's younger brother - Wei Xun, the uncle of the Tang Dynasty, Wei Xun who is idle at home, after coming into contact with the Tubo people, Wei Xun feels that his opportunity has come!
If he can facilitate the meeting between the Tubo people and Li Xian, then he will be a great achievement, and it would be great if he could use the power of the Tubo people to kill Li Jing!
But before that, he was going to meet his sister Empress Wei, discuss with his sister what to do with the Tubo people, get into the palace, and meet Li Xian.
After Wei Xun said goodbye to the Tubo people, he hurried to see Empress Wei to discuss important matters!
Before Li Jing left Chang'an, he allowed Empress Wei to return to Chang'an and reunite Li Xian and his wife, which was a good thing, and even his father Li Sujie and his brothers were invited to live in Chang'an.
All Wei Xun's actions were under the supervision of bad people, and it was not until Wei Xun entered the palace that the surveillance of him ended, and the affairs in the palace were handed over to the guards to monitor.
After Wei Xun found Wei, he told Wei about his plan, and Queen Wei's eyes lit up after hearing this, and she decided to give it a try, if she succeeded, she would be able to obtain the authority of the Tang Dynasty!
However, if you want to complete this matter, you still need to pull someone into the water, this person is Xu Wang Li Sujie, if they can win over Li Sujie, their success rate will increase a lot, and it is not impossible to fight!
……
Zhang Wuji, the host and guest attendant, left the host and guest division and went directly to the house of Prime Minister Liu Bowen.
Liu Bowen's servant politely invited Zhang Wuji into the house and took him to the living room to wait, and the maid walked in from outside, brought tea and retreated!
A moment later, Liu Bowen walked in from outside, and Zhang Wuji hurriedly got up to greet him.
"I've seen Xiangye!"
Zhang Wuji crossed his hands and saluted.
"No need to be polite, please take a seat, you came to see me for the sake of the Tibetan envoy?"
Liu Bowen sat down on the main seat and spoke.
"I can't hide anything from Xiangye, the Tibetan envoy is in a hurry to see His Majesty this time, I don't know what it's for? Xia Guan felt that there was something strange in this, so he specially came to report to the prime minister!"
Zhang Wuji said.
The Tibetan envoy was anxious to see the emperor, but refused to explain the reason, which was also his doubt.
Now the Tang Dynasty is fighting against Tubo, according to the battle report that came back, the Tang Dynasty has won a complete victory, and is advancing to Tubo itself, presumably it will not take long to conquer the Tubo Royal City.
At this time, Tubo sent people to Chang'an, and there must have been nothing good, so he came to tell Liu Bowen.
Liu Bowen smiled slightly, and did not answer immediately, he had probably guessed the matter, but he didn't know what chips Tubo would come up with to persuade Datang to withdraw from the army.
Moreover, this chip must be weighty enough, and it must make the entire Datang in an uproar!
"In any case, Tubo is also submitting its credentials, and when we come to the peace talks, we must have no less etiquette, but don't forget to send someone to take care of it, lest they don't understand the customs of Chang'an and cause any trouble!"
Liu Bowen picked up the tea on the table, opened the lid of the bowl, blew it, took a sip and closed the lid, and put it back on the table.
No matter what the purpose of Tibet is, no matter how much it keeps secrets, there will definitely be a time when it will be secret.
No matter how hard the mouth is, the cool officials of the Tang Dynasty can easily pry their mouths open, if they send someone to monitor the Tubo envoys and don't get the answer they want, then they can only be handed over to cool officials such as Lai Junchen!
The Tuyuhun occupation of Tuyuhun led to the shattering of the Tuyuhun people's homeland, and the Tuyuhun people, who could only wander to Chang'an to settle down, were afraid that they would hate the Tubo people to death for a long time.
When their enemies meet, they fight, and it's normal for a few people to disappear.
"Xiaguan will arrange it!"
Zhang Wuji got up and saluted, he understood the meaning of Liu Bowen's words, and planned to arrange people to spy on those Tubo people when he went back, and see what they wanted to do!
"Don't worry, this won't bother you, you just need to do your job! I'll have other arrangements for the rest!"
Liu Bowen waved his hand, how can you let a layman handle the work of monitoring people, there is a specialization in the art industry, and professionals do professional things.
This kind of surveillance and stalking is still done by bad people, who come from three religions and nine streams, and have talents from all walks of life.
"Yes, if there are no other orders, the next official will retire!"
Zhang Wuji saluted, Liu Bowen nodded, and Zhang Wuji retreated.
"Go and put the bad handsome Zhang Xiaojing, please come to the house!"
Liu Bowen instructed the housekeeper on the side: "Invite someone to the house, be polite and polite!"
"Whoa!"
The housekeeper bowed and retreated, and went to find the bad handsome Zhang Xiaojing.
The meeting with the bad handsome Zhang Xiaojing chatted for nearly half an hour before letting Zhang Xiaojing leave.
Zhang Xiaojing's face was full of energy and red light, if he could do a good job of what the prime minister explained this time, then he would be just around the corner!
Zhang Xiaojing walked out of Liu Bowen's mansion, Liu Bowen asked the housekeeper to send Zhang Xiaojing to the door, and watched the other party disappear into the distance, then turned back.
After Zhang Xiaojing went back, he immediately summoned his bad people and assigned them tasks to keep an eye on the Tubo people, and inquired about what the real purpose of the Tubo people was?
This good thing, Zhang Xiaojing does not plan to swallow it alone, but takes out the old man to share with everyone, he will not forget his brothers, and he will take care of his brothers if there are benefits.
If you can do it beautifully this time, maybe you can get out of the lowly status and get the status of a good citizen, and you will not be looked down upon and treated in Chang'an!
From now on, they will hold their heads high! Be an upright person.
