Chapter 1369 - That's All It Says
Hearing Songtsen Gampo's words, Chen Xuanzang couldn't help laughing, this kind of ridicule didn't care to him at all, he had been a monk for more than ten years, not to mention anything else, but his ability to control emotions was definitely top-notch.
He didn't care about this kind of thing at all, Chen Xuanzang smiled slightly and said: "It doesn't matter if I am firm or not, maybe I will also find a beautiful girl in Chang'an City, or rather, when I once passed by the Western Regions, the daughter country is a famous female country with Bodhisattva, and their king once took a fancy to me." ”
"It's just that I didn't agree at that time, now that I think about it, I did have a heart at that time, although I finally refused, now I heard that the other party is already in Chang'an City, and he is living better than before, this time I go back, I want to talk to the other party."
"Maybe I can continue to have a relationship with the other party."
Songtsen Gampo was a little speechless, you are real, but what Chen Xuanzang said just now is indeed very uncomfortable for him, that is, all your efforts, I feel that nothing has fallen in the end, and you have not enjoyed it yourself.
It's hard.
When he was in Tibet, he didn't have too many ideas, because there was no choice at that time, and the conditions in Tibet were like that, and he didn't see more things.
But in fact, after coming to Tianzhu, he can actually come into contact with more things than Tubo, not to mention anything else, there are more spices here than Tubo, and the things they eat are much better than Tubo.
But it is still not compared with Datang, Chen Xuanzang is very right, what do people live for a lifetime?
The desire of the tongue seems to be very ordinary, the most ordinary thing, but for anyone, it is something that cannot be ignored.
Because it is necessary for the human body, before you have eaten well, you don't feel anything, just like those serfs, filling your stomach is already a very happy thing.
But when you've eaten the good ones, your cravings will start to swell.
The same is true of the clothes on the body.
After passing through better things, you want to be more perfect, and there are so many things that are closely related to a person, but what can he enjoy in Tianzhu?
The point is that this kind of enjoyment may not be able to last for a few years, or even a few years, when Datang calls, can he continue?
Can Tubo really hold on?
When a person's heart begins to crack, when a person's persistence begins to waver, all he lacks is a reason and an opportunity to convince himself.
"Your Majesty, ladies and gentlemen, in fact, many things are just that we have not changed our minds, and if you regard Datang as an enemy, you will feel that everything is very difficult."
"But if you treat Datang as your own, you can think about it separately, how many benefits do you have? Then compare the benefits with the difficulties you encountered, and I think it will be easy to figure out how to choose. ”
"Actually, Your Majesty, you yourself know very well that Datang dares to sell you so many armor and weapons, so there are means to counter these armors and weapons."
"And how much of a role these armors and weapons have played in Tubo on the road to face Tianzhu, Your Majesty, you are also very clear, and now, Datang has ten times and a hundred times more weapons and armor than Tubo."
"Even more powerful than the armor of Tibet."
"Then the outcome of the war, I'm afraid, will be faster. The point is that it seems to be thousands of miles away from the Tang Dynasty, but in fact it is only thousands of miles away from Chang'an, and the country of Bi has long been a state of the Tang Dynasty. ”
"And ports such as Yuzhang Port can allow Datang's materials to be transported here at a very fast speed, and logistics supply is not a problem."
"Therefore, as the unprecedented founder of Tibet, His Majesty should think more thoroughly than me and know better than me."
"I, Chen Xuanzang, came today on behalf of my Majesty the Tang Dynasty, nothing more than to convey this will, and that's all I said, I will leave first, Your Majesty can think about it more." Chen Xuanzang's tone also became sincere, no longer aggressive.
After speaking, he took the initiative to salute, and then took his leave.
Songtsen Gampo didn't open his mouth or block it, because all Chen Xuanzang's words poked at his lung tubes.
Looking at the back of Chen Xuanzang leaving, Songtsan Gampo felt a little bitter in his heart, just like the other party's words, as a monarch who unified Tibet, his idea back then was to make Tibet stronger, and in this process, he naturally had to learn.
To learn is to learn the culture of the Tang Dynasty, so he knows the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin, and Han culture very well.
It is precisely because of this understanding that Songtsen Gampo understands very well that the other party's words are correct, and it is impossible for Tubo to compare with the Tang Dynasty.
Even the original Tibet is impossible, because the foundation of a strong country is to have enough space for development.
The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is not only a moat for Tibet's survival, a moat for hindering foreign enemies, but also a moat for hindering the development of Tubo! On the plateau, Tibet had no chance of developing into a powerful state.
This is also the reason why if they dared to leave the plateau to plunder, they would be directly beaten back by the Tang Dynasty. And although the current Tubo seems to have left the land that restricted them, it has also lost the largest basic market of Tubo.
Although those serfs don't know why they rebelled, Songtsen Gampo has figured it out a little in the past two years, and it must be that the Tang Dynasty has contributed to it, and there are definitely Tang people who have instigated it.
From the perspective of those serfs, Songtsen Gampo did not believe that they could organize so many men and soldiers in such a short period of time, and at the same time resist the whole territory.
And all this could not have been done on a temporary basis, if they could really hide it so well, how could Songtsen Gampo unify the whole of Tibet so quickly?
How many years did he unify Tibet?
He couldn't know more about the serfs in Tubo, and he didn't have to think about it to know that he must be the mastermind behind the scenes of the Tang Dynasty.
And those serfs have been slaves for generations, and almost all of the resistance has allowed the Tang Dynasty to succeed, and now the main body of the Tubo people is the Tianzhu people, so they can resist the Tang Dynasty?
Songtsen Gampo himself thought it was a joke.
Although there were not many people in the court hall where the court meeting was usually held, there was silence for a long time.
It wasn't until Songtsen Gampo came back to his senses and asked, "Two prime ministers, do you think what he said makes sense?" ”
Shang Xiang and Lun Ke glanced at each other, Songtsen Gampo's question was actually very difficult for them to choose, because if they said it softly, it was possible that Songtsen Gampo would be angry and say that they had no heart to resist.
To put it more bluntly, Songtsen Gampo is not a fool, he knows the truth, and he will think that they are just saying this deliberately to cater to him, and he doesn't think so in his heart.
