Chapter 602 Negotiation Begins

"Yes..." the jailer stammered, "It is said...to go to Jingyang to assist Li Zheng in negotiating with the Tubo people."

Chang Sun Chong hurried out of the dungeon, and said to the jailer here: "Hurry up and arrest him."

After the words fell, Chang Sun Chong saw a group of jailers in Dali Temple unmoved, and shouted again: "What are you doing standing there! Hurry up and bring them back to me."

Several jailers still stood in place.

Someone said casually: "Young Master Changsun, we are the servants of the Dali Temple."

Someone else said with a smile: "Young Master Changsun, this matter has His Majesty's will. Since it is His Majesty's will, how can we disobey it?"

Chang Sun Chong looked at the guards in surprise.

Another jailer said: "You are not an official of our Dali Temple. We help whenever we can on weekdays, but you can't order it so arrogantly. We are also officials, not servants of your family. If you want to bring someone back, the eldest grandson will do it yourself." So, we can still live on the monthly money given by the court.”

"You!" Chang Sun Chong glared at the jailers.

After finishing talking, these jailers stopped talking to Chang Sun Chong and did what they had to do. Some people leaned against the wall lazily and yawned.

Some people gathered in the corner to chat, and some even fell asleep leaning against the wall.

Looking at these people, Chang Sun Chong left in a hurry.

Running on Zhuque Street, he didn't see any Xinxin. Chang Sun Chong ran all the way to the gate of the city. After asking the soldiers guarding the gate, he found out that an hour ago, a group of officers and soldiers escorted a prison cart out of Chang'an City.

Chang Sun Chong looked outside the city, gritted his teeth and looked in the direction of Jingyang, his heart was burning with anger. What exactly does this Li Zheng want to do!Why does he have to intervene in everything I do!
Seeing the anger on Changsun Chong's face, the soldiers guarding the city did not dare to provoke him.

Changsun Chong is the son of Changsun Wuji and a relative of the royal family, so no one dares to provoke him.

Jingyang
Li Zheng got up and was brushing his teeth when he saw Li Xiaogong coming to his home.

Li Zheng spit out the mouthwash in his mouth and asked, "I have seen the King of Hejian."

Li Xiaogong smiled and said, "Maybe it's been a long time since you and I have seen each other."

Li Zheng handed over the toothbrush and water cup to the maid beside him and said, "Is the King Hejian using this to urge me to have a baby?"

Hearing this, Li Xiaogong coughed a few times, "You don't have to say such things so loudly."

Li Zheng smiled awkwardly, "Have you used the medicine Hejian Junwang last time? How effective is the medicine?"

Li Xiaogong coughed twice again, "The effect of the medicine is really good."

Looking at Li Xiaogong's expression, it seems that he is still thinking about it.

Then Li Xiaogong said: "Don't say these things are useful or not, the old man came to see you for something serious."

"What serious business?"

Li Xiaogong touched the stubble of his own chin and said: "Your Majesty has left the negotiations with Tubo to you, and His Majesty is also worried, so I asked the old man to come and listen."

Li Zheng grinned wryly, "I think His Majesty is afraid that I will take advantage of it."

Take out a booklet from your study and walk out of the house with this booklet.

Li Xiaogong followed behind and said, "Are you going to negotiate now?"

Li Zheng walked all the way to the academy and said, "Let's go to the academy first."

Come to the academy, the academy is now divided into two rooms.

One is to teach children basic knowledge, and the other is for older children to learn advanced knowledge.

After Chu Suiliang finished class, Li Zheng walked into the classroom.

Seeing Li Zheng and Li Xiaogong, Chu Suiliang saluted and said: "I have seen the King of Hejian County and the Order of Chang'an."

Li Zheng took out the booklet and said to Chu Suiliang, "Arrange some students to copy ten copies of this booklet."

Chu Suiliang took the booklet and glanced at only a few pages, and said immediately: "Let's make arrangements."

Li Xiaogong looked at this academy, the academy has always been a forbidden place in Jingyang, unlike the book printing house which is the business of Empress Changsun.

The academy is spontaneously organized by the villagers in the village, and the villagers will not let other people disturb these children's studies.

Books are the most abundant thing in the academy, and even these children have a bag full of books.

When Chu Suiliang handed the ten copies of the booklets to Li Zheng, Li Xiaogong picked up one of the booklets and read them, and took a deep breath after reading it.

"Li Zheng, are you really planning to do this?"

"Yes."

"Is it going too far?" Li Xiaogong looked worried.

"No, I'm already very polite."

"You call what's written in this booklet polite?"

"Yes."

Li Xiaogong followed Li Zheng's footsteps and left the academy. After reading the contents of the brochure, he felt emotional. It was a wise decision for His Majesty to ask Li Zheng to preside over the reception of the Tubo people.

Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu were already waiting outside the horse pen.

And Wang Xuance was waiting here with some guards.

Wang Ding and a few officers and soldiers from Dali Temple were standing beside them, and there were some Tubo people standing beside the stables.

Li Zheng stepped forward and said with a smile: "I kept you waiting for a long time."

Wang Ding cupped his hands and said: "It's okay, this one is Xin Xin has brought."

Li Zheng didn't go to see Xinxin, but said to Xu Jingzong: "How are the arrangements for the Tubo people?"

Xu Jingzong said: "They are all in the stables."

Yi Xin kept her head down, not daring to look at Li Zheng.

When he came to the stables, Li Zheng saw a group of Tubo people sitting on the ground.

Lu Dongzan saw Li Zheng immediately, and he quickly said to Songtsen Gampo, "That's Li Zheng."

Songtsan Gampo stood up and looked at Li Zheng. He was only sixteen or seventeen years old. He was not very luxuriously dressed, but he looked very clean overall, with no extra decorations on his body, giving the impression that he was a very clean young man.

Songtsan Gampo saluted Li Zheng with Tubo etiquette and said, "I have seen the Chang'an Order."

Li Zheng smiled and said, "Don't be too polite, just sit down."

Songtsan Gampo was a little taken aback by these words.

Lu Dongzan was holding back his anger. This Li Zheng's condescending attitude towards Songtsan Gampo made the group of Tibetans very uncomfortable.

The Tubo people were sitting on the grass, and Duo moved a chair. Li Zheng sat down and looked at Xinxin, "Tell me, what is the situation in Tubo now."

Everyone looked at the man in shackles beside him.

Of course Lu Dongzan and Songtsan Gampo knew that this person was Xin Xin.

Songtsan Gampo's heart began to beat. When he first saw Li Zheng, he felt that this young man was different.

Looking at this Xingxin again, Songtsan Gampo's face darkened, this Xingxin has been in Tubo for so long, if you want to talk about the current situation in Tubo, Xingxin knows very well.

Seeing that Yingxin didn't speak, Wang Ding said, "Didn't you hear what Chang'an Ling asked you?"

Faced with the cowardice on everyone's face, Xin said submissively, "I heard."

Wang Ding continued: "Since you heard it, tell me what you know."

Yixin raised her head slightly to look at the crowd. Lu Dongzan and Songtsan Gampo looked at herself with a sullen face, and then looked at Li Zheng who was sitting on the chair with a calm expression.
