People in Datang have been expelled from school

Chapter 603 Negotiation Contract
Yi Xin lowered her head and said, "The villain doesn't know what to say?"

Li Zheng shook the fan in his hand and said, "You can say what you know. This is my territory, and these Tibetans dare not do anything."

The surrounding area was very quiet, and a group of Tubo people watched Xinxin silently.

Xu Jingzong walked up to Xinxin and said in a low voice, "Tell me everything you know, what is Tubo like now?"

Hearing Xu Jingzong's tone of voice, Yixin looked up at Xu Jingzong in surprise, the voice was very familiar.

Looking at Xu Jingzong's expression again, Yixin couldn't help feeling a little creepy, the voice was very similar to the original voice.

But I dare not conclude on this, I haven't returned to Chang'an for several years.

Xu Jingzong said again: "Speak out with confidence."

Bowed and said: "During the past few years in Tubo, the villain has always been entertained by Tubo Zanpu Songtsan Gampo and Tubo Prime Minister Lu Dongzan. In the past two years, he has also experienced several wars in Tubo. After occupying Potala, the defense line in the north also began to collapse. As far as I know, Tubo lost [-] hectares of land, the army was defeated and lost at least [-] people, and a large amount of food and people were looted."

Several times Lu Dongzan wanted to come forward to shut up his mouth, but Songtsan Gambo pressed him down.

Yixin also noticed Lu Dongzan's angry expression, and bowed his head and stopped talking.

Li Zheng looked at Lu Dongzan and Songtsan Gampo, "I know you are here to ask for help, I hope that our Tang Dynasty can help you repel the Western Turks and help you regain those territories, population, and food, right?"

Lu Dongzan had a violent temper, but Songtsan Gampo calmed down and said, "If Tang Dynasty can help us, we Tubo are willing to give up Xizhou, Shanzhou, and Wuhai in return."

With a helpless expression, Li Zheng waved the fan in his hand and said, "It seems that you Tibetans still don't quite understand your situation."

Lu Dongzan stared at Li Zheng and said, "Li Zheng, what do you mean!"

Xu Jingzong took a step forward and took out a file and said, "Chang'an Order, can I read it out?"

Upon receiving Li Zheng's gaze, Xu Jingzong said: "Actually, I need not say more about what I want. According to our own investigation, Tubo lost 21 people, more than [-] hectares of land, and food. Regardless, if the camp is lost or Lhasa is lost, the money banks in these two places will all be plundered."

Lu Dongzan's expression was very bad, and he fell silent with his old face.

Songtsan Gampo also looked a little embarrassed.

As long as the people on Li Zheng's side said how critical and dire the situation in Tubo was, the words on Tubo's side would become weaker.

Songtsan Gampo was a little more wary of Li Zheng's understanding, and seemed to be asking about the situation in Tubo, but the purpose was actually for negotiation.

With very good negotiation skills, Li Zheng took the initiative from the very beginning.

Songtsin Gampo felt a lot of pressure.

This was the first time I saw Li Zheng. It was really not easy for such a young man to put so much pressure on him with just a few words.

It was Li Zheng who negotiated the matter of Tuyuhun.

Li is also presiding over the East Turkic affairs.

Li was also making arrangements for the Western Turkic War.

Now it seems that today's Datang is very dependent on Li Zheng's wrist.

Songtsan Gampo became more and more uneasy. Li Zheng looked only about seventeen or eighteen years old, but his eyes were different from many young people of the same age.

Li Zheng's eyes were dark.

Songtsen Gampo always felt that there must be many secrets hidden in those eyes.

Li Zheng went on to say: "Although I don't know how much wealth you have in Tubo, according to our current assessment, your Tubo is now on the verge of bankruptcy. If such Tubo asks us to rescue, it does not guarantee how much money we will get in the future." return."

Songtsan Gampo said to Li Zheng, "Then what do you want?"

"First of all, we have to look at your sincerity. You, Songtsan Gampo, are the monarch of Tubo, and your attitude is good, but look at Brother Lu's attitude. The murderous look on your face doesn't seem like you are here to ask for help. It looks like it's coming to seek revenge."

Songtsan Gampo glanced at Lu Dongzan.

Lu Dongzan also had no choice but to turn his back.

"Is it ready now?" Songtsen Gampo said.

Li Zheng nodded slightly, "I don't know what kind of person I am in the rumors you heard, but Brother Lu should know me quite well."

"You have more or less heard about it. I don't like being an official or making friends. I just like doing business."

Li Xiaogong stood aside, listening to the conversation between Li Zheng and Songtsan Gampo.

From the confrontation in their words, it can be seen that Li Zheng is taking the initiative, while Songtsan Gampo has been backing down.

It is indeed inappropriate to talk about the relationship between the two countries as business, but since the dynasties and dynasties, as long as the diplomatic relations between the two countries are also exchanges of interests, it is often the same as business.

Li Zheng asked Du Hu to take out a few strings of marinated chicken wings from the kitchen, light a clay oven, set up an iron rack and start roasting the chicken wings in front of everyone.

Lu Dongzan came back to his senses and looked curiously at Li Zheng's actions, and whispered, "Zanpu, what does Li Zheng mean?"

Songtsan Gampo never left Li Zheng's eyes.

While grilling chicken wings, Li Zheng said, "I prefer to eat chicken wings. Although chicken wings don't have much meat, the taste is worth aftertaste."

Looking at Songtsan Gampo, Li Zheng said again: "Do you like to eat?"

Songtsen Gampo forced a smile, "Eat."

Li Zheng put the chicken wings on the iron rack and roasted them carefully, while saying: "I hope this conversation can be very pleasant."

Songtsan Gampo sat down in front of Li Zheng.

Li Zheng looked at Songtsan Gambo who was sitting in front of him and said, "Actually, I have heard of your name many times, but this is the first time I have seen you."

Songtsan Gampo also said, "This is also the first time I see you."

"Come back to business." Li Zheng said to Songtsan Gampo: "We each have our own interests. For Tubo, I am also considering on His Majesty's side. First of all, I want to confirm how firm you are in Tubo's request for help this time." .”

Songtsen Gampo said: "Except for Tang Dynasty, we can't find anyone to help Tubo."

Turning the other side to Li Zheng, Li Zheng said again: "Where are the nobles in Tubo?"

"No problem, they also like to have Datang's support."

Saying so, Li Zheng could still see some hesitation in Songtsan Gampo's words.

Li Zheng nodded and said: "Very well, I understand what you mean, and I can also feel your firmness in this negotiation, so for the sake of this negotiation to be more harmonious, and for some unnecessary disputes, I will I hope that you, as the monarch of Tubo, will draw a contract."

"Contract? What contract?"
