Chapter 231: Taihao Diaotang Meets Again

Zhuoer Beizan had no intention of receiving Shang Jieyunzan, but this powerful person broke into his mansion like a bolt of lightning, instantly making the atmosphere of the entire space like a dead lake. This sudden change made every official present feel an indescribable embarrassment.

Shang Jieyun looked around, and when he saw that none of the officials spoke, he chuckled and said, "It seems that everyone is unwilling to welcome me." ”

Zhuo Erbeizan retorted: "General Shang Jie, what are you talking about? He then assigned a servant: "Quick, set up a seat for General Shang Jie." ”

As soon as Drow's voice fell, the man sprang into action, quickly placing upholstery and brocade on an ornate sandalwood chair in the center of the hall as a sign of respect.

Seeing this, Shang Jieyun nodded slightly, and then sat down. His gaze swept over every official present, and his eyes revealed a majesty that could not be ignored. This kind of majesty made the officials present feel a kind of pressure, as if their heartbeats were speeding up a little at this moment.

Zhuo Erbeizan sighed secretly in his heart, he knew that this Shang Jie general was not an idle person, and his appearance undoubtedly caused him some trouble. But he also understands that there are no eternal enemies and no eternal friends in this world, only eternal interests. He decided to treat Shang Jieyun Zan with the most impartial attitude and see what the general really wanted.

"General Shang Jie, you suddenly came to visit today, I don't know what you are doing?" Zhuoer Beizan asked.

Shang Jieyun praised a slight smile and said, "Why should the prime minister ask knowingly, now the situation in the Tubo Dynasty, we all have the same purpose, there is no need for me to say more." I would like to ask, why is Lord Taihao here? ”

Tai Hao arched his hand and said: "General Shang Jie, don't be careful, I came here to find His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Shang Jieyun praised: "Oh, so that's the case, it just so happens that I also want to ask, Vice Minister Luosang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Eastern Empire, I heard that he was captured by the subordinates you sent, why did you arrest him?" ”

Lobsang Tenzin showed a disdainful expression, and said lightly: "I am acting on orders, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very good now, there is no need to report this matter to General Shangjie first, right?" ”

Shang Jieyun frowned slightly, and said, "Vice Minister Luosang, I'm not guessing for no reason. It's just that this matter is related to the safety of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of our dynasty and the Eastern Empire, and I hope you can explain the matter together. There was a palpable pressure in his words, and Lobsang Tenzin's face changed slightly.

"General Shangjie, I understand your concerns," Lobsang Tenzin muttered, "However, there are some things that I cannot reveal. ”

"Can't disclose?" Shang Jieyun repeated, his tone revealing coldness, "Vice Minister Luosang, the safety of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is related to the national fortune of our dynasty. Obviously, it was Bi who sent his subordinates to capture His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, how can you be silent about this? ”

Lobsang Tenzin glanced at him, a hint of mixed emotion flashing in his eyes. Then, he said in a deep voice: "General Shang Jie, there are some things that you don't need to ask. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is safe now, and you don't need to worry. ”

At this moment, Jimu Dorjee hurriedly stepped in, leaned into Zhuoer Beizan's ear, and said softly in a respectful whisper: "Great Minister, Princess Diaotang has appointed the guards in the palace to come to greet Lord Taihao." Zhuo Erbeizan's wrinkled face bowed slightly, and he smiled and said, "Dorjee, you can be louder so that everyone here can hear it, and it won't get in the way." ”

As a result, Jimu Dorjee raised his voice and announced in a clear and powerful voice: "Princess Diaotang invited the envoy of the Eastern Empire, Lord Taihao, to the palace, and at this moment the palanquin man is already waiting outside the door. His voice echoed through the chamber, exuding awe and respect, and made the officials present feel a sense of solemn etiquette.

Tai Hao got up and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll leave first." ”

After saying that, Taihao straightened up and walked out of the hall. Jimu Dorjee sent Tai Hao to the gate, and Tai Hao instructed the fifty soldiers waiting outside the gate: "You go to the gate of General Shang Jieyunzan's mansion and inform the fifty soldiers waiting there, let them bring their chariots, horses, and goods to the palace of the Tubo king, and the rest will go directly to me." ”

Jimu Dorjee solemnly walked up to Taihao, bowed deeply, and said humbly: "My lord, if you send me anything, I only need a little guidance, and I will definitely do my best for you." ”

Tai Hao smiled faintly and said, "Thank you, Dorjee." I am not in serious trouble at the moment, and I will call you when something happens. ”

These words were extremely humble and polite, but they also exuded an indescribable confidence.

Afterwards, Taihao boarded the guard's sedan chair and slowly left the place. Walking through the streets and alleys, he couldn't help but feel excited, as if he was traveling through the long history of Tubo City. It didn't take long for them to come to the gate of the Tibetan palace. The tall walls and the heavily guarded walls seem to tell the majesty and mystery of this place. Taihao got out of the sedan chair and slowly walked towards the gate of the palace. He thought in his heart that he was about to meet Princess Diaotang, and he couldn't help but feel nervous and excited. As he got closer, Taihao's heart grew heavier, he didn't know if he would be able to complete his mission, but he knew he had to do his best to complete it.

The construction time of the royal palace in Tibet is not far away, it was built by Yang Wu Rongzan of the Tubo Dynasty to marry Princess Diaotang. The palace's large and small halls, monks' houses, scripture halls and pagodas and other buildings are scattered and rigorous, showing exquisite architectural skills and unique artistic style.

The architectural characteristics of the Tibetan palace are remarkable, and the palace groups are built on the mountain, layer upon layer, and the momentum is magnificent. The structure of the building is a mixture of wood and stone, mainly wood, and the exterior walls are decorated with granite, marble, etc., making the whole palace look magnificent. At the same time, each hall of the palace is beautifully decorated, with frescoes, sculptures and jewels all extravagantly decorated.

Tai Hao, led by a palace maid, came to a palace where Princess Diaotang lived. Entering the palace, one can see that the interior is richly decorated and full of religious atmosphere. The walls are covered with various thangkas with portraits of the Buddha and Buddhist stories. In the center of the hall of the palace is a huge statue of the Buddha, solemn, where worshippers often recite scriptures. There are also many scriptures and scrolls in the palace, and precious Buddhist texts are well kept.

The aroma of incense wafts through the palace, and the monks chant sutras inside the palace, adding to the sacred atmosphere of the palace. This palace is not only the residence of Princess Diaotang, but also a symbol of Tibetan culture and Buddhist beliefs, allowing her to live a pious and fulfilling life here.

As soon as he stepped into the palace of Princess Diaotang, Taihao met the elated Xuanbao. Like a bird that has not yet come out of the cage, Xuan Bao happily rushed towards him and shouted, "Lord Taihao, you are finally here!" ”

Tai Hao couldn't help but be stunned, what caught his eye was Xuanbao's face with a real smile, he waved his hand and saluted, and said happily: "His Royal Highness the Prince, you are really here, it seems that what Vice Minister Luosang said is true." ”

Xuan Bao restrained the smile on his face, changed it to a palpitating expression, and said, "Yes, I was scared enough at the time. Unexpectedly, he really did what he said, and brought me to meet my sister. His words revealed a deep sense of happiness and gratitude.

Taihao asked, "Where is Princess Diaotang?" ”

His voice echoed through the air, but the princess did not respond in time. He had just asked the question, but suddenly a familiar voice came from behind the screen, and the voice was full of warmth and joy, "Taihao." ”

The voice seemed to have magical power, making Taihao's heartbeat instantly accelerate. He turned around and saw Princess Diaotang walking slowly out from behind the screen. Her smile is like the sunshine of spring, which makes people feel warm and kind.

"You're here." She whispered, every word carrying deep longing and anticipation. At this time, Taihao was only deeply speechless and full of emotion. He looked at her, and his heart was like a wave, and he was already indescribable.

Princess Diaotang instructed Xuanbao: "Brother Huang, you wait in the palace first, I have something important to discuss with Lord Taihao." Xuan Bao answered.

After seeing Princess Diaotang, Taihao's eyes widened instantly, like two bright stars finding a familiar trajectory in the night sky. His heart beat feverishly in his chest, like an out-of-control wild horse, breaking through the fence of years and leaping again into the familiar wilderness.

"Princess......" He hesitated, his eyes flashing with mixed emotions. It's shock, it's nostalgia, and it's indescribable joy. His words seemed to be choked by something, and then, suddenly, he hurried forward, holding the princess's hand tightly.

"Taihao." The princess called softly again, her voice like a snowflake falling nine days away, cold and gentle. Her autumn-like eyes were also full of deep feelings, "You're finally here." ”

They were relatively silent, as if time had stood still at this moment. Their gazes are intertwined, like two intertwined rivers, leaving deep traces on the sandy banks of the years. Their heartbeats seem to be pouring out to each other about the bits and pieces of the past years, the laughter and tears of the past, the disputes and reconciliations of the past.

Princess Diaotang smiled softly, like a spring breeze blowing across the lake, setting off layers of ripples. She stretched out her slender fingers and stroked Taihao's cheeks, and the warmth of her fingertips seemed to ignite the long-dormant enthusiasm in Taihao's heart again. He felt her presence, her familiar scent, her dreamlike smile, all like a long-lost poem, which touched him deeply.

In the momentary silence, Taihao's consciousness flowed quietly like a clear stream, and he suddenly understood the difference between his identity and hers. She is the queen mother of Tibet, and they are just ordinary old friends. The relationship between them has only been gently touched by the years, and has never crossed the invisible boundary. This kind of realization made him wake up like a dream in an instant.

He lowered his head, his hands clenched into fists, his fingertips piercing into his palms, as if this would suppress the tremors in his heart. He knelt on the ground, kowtowed three times, and said humbly and respectfully: "Your Royal Highness, how are you doing?" The voice wafted in the air, calm and steady, like morning dew, with a cold and indifferent breath.

Princess Diaotang said softly: "For many years, you have been my only confidant. I still remember the time when you escorted me to the city of Logos. Taihao, I'm doing well here. I was overjoyed to hear that the envoy of the Eastern Empire was you. ”

Tai Hao said: "That's very good. By the way, Your Royal Highness Princess, the hairpin you entrusted me to give to Brother Canggu before, I have already handed it over to him as promised......"

Princess Diaotang said: "Taihao, thank you so much." ”
