Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 569

Although it is a traditional show to add to the fun, it is different today that the rich and powerful order the warriors to fight and fight.

Li Qinzai suddenly understood that the Prime Minister of Tubo could not do meaningless things.

Ordering people to fight for fun was an excuse. What Lu Dongzan wanted to know was the quality of the two hundred pieces Li Qinzai brought.

Lu Dongzan would not necessarily kill Li Qinzai, but he must know, if he decides to kill him, how many catties Li Qinzai brought with him, and how many troops will be used to kill him without fail.

After thinking about this point clearly, Li Qinzai still had a smile on his face, but his back was soaked in cold sweat unknowingly.

The old man really has a good city, no wonder he has been the Prime Minister of Tubo for decades.

"This victorious warrior, the old man admires me very much. The Tubo people have always admired heroes, and those who can survive the duel are heroes. Let me offer you a glass of wine. The brave man must not refuse." Lu Dongzan stood up holding Jiuzhan laughed.

Old Wei didn't move, didn't speak, just stood there expressionless, didn't even look at him.

Lu Dongzan held the wine cup in both hands, his smile was a little stiff.

Li Qinzai smiled: "Old Wei, give the prime minister some face."

Then Lao Wei clasped his fists at Li Qinzai, then raised his sleeve and wiped the blood on his face fiercely, took a few steps forward to take Lu Dongzan's wine cup, drank it all in one gulp, and handed it back to him with one hand.

"The emperor of the Tang Dynasty's literary and martial arts prospered, and his reputation is indeed well-deserved. I have learned a lot from this warrior." Lu Dongzan said with a smile.

He didn't seem to care about the failure of the duel just now, he just watched a little show for fun, and didn't care about the ending of the show.

Li Qinzai also said with a smile: "The Prime Minister is absurd. To be honest, this warrior is the most skilled among my entourage. Otherwise, I would not be selected for a duel. If I lose the face of the Tang Dynasty, I will be questioned when I return to Chang'an." of."

Lu Dongzan smiled noncommittally, and said: "Uncle Li is too modest, it is my honor to meet young heroes like Uncle Li today."

Speaking of this, Lu Dongzan suddenly changed the subject, and said: "I, Tubo, is in such a powerful situation now that I am about to occupy the entire territory of Tuyuhun. This old man here has a merciless request. I also invite Li Xianbo to play the emperor of Tang Kingdom."

"Please tell me, Your Majesty."

Lu Dongzan pondered for a moment, and said: "I, Tubo Zan Pu Mang Song Mang Zan, has passed the weak crown this year. My grandfather, Songtsan Gampo, is a wise man, and he admires the Chinese treasures of your country. Regent of Zanpu, I would like to propose marriage to Datang on behalf of Zanpu, and ask the emperor of Tang Dynasty to marry the princess, so that the friendship between the two countries will last forever, and there will be no war for a hundred years."

Li Qinzai took a long time to digest it before he came back, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

Su Dingfang has already led the army and is on his way to Tuyuhun. Seeing that the battle between Datang and Tubo is inevitable, this old man has the nerve to ask Datang to marry the princess?

What a thick skin to say that.

Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. Only when I came out did I realize that Li Qinzai was too shy and ignorant before.

Li Qinzai said without hesitation: "I'm afraid you're thinking of farting... Well, what I mean is, the Prime Minister's idea is really amazing, and most people would never think of it."

Lu Dongzan's eyes flickered, and he smiled and said, "So, Li Xianbo also agrees?"

Li Qinzai suddenly withdrew his smile: "It's totally impossible."

"Why?"

"In the 15th year of Zhenguan, Tubo Zanpu Songtsen Gampo went to Bohai to marry Princess Wencheng. It was said to be a good story through the ages, and the subjects of the Tang and Tubo countries still talk about it, but..."

"The act of marriage is Datang's release of goodwill to neighboring countries, but now Tubo often loots the border of our Datang. Just a few days ago, the Tubo army also harassed Songzhou and Minzhou of our Datang."

Li Qinzai grinned at Chaolu Dongzan: "While robbing our city and money, he begged the emperor of Tang Dynasty to marry a princess. Prime Minister, Tubo can't take all the advantages in the world."

Lu Dongzan was not embarrassed at all, but still smiled and said: "Bing Feng pointed at it, it is inevitable to misunderstand. The attack on Songzhou and Minzhou was done by Tubo Sanyong, not the order of the old man. The princess is asking for a good relationship between the two countries for generations. The marriage between Songtsan Gampo and Princess Wencheng was a match made in heaven, Qin and Jin were so good, and I asked Li Xianbo to recite the sincerity of Tubo."

Li Qinzai shook his head: "Major Prime Minister, to be honest, even if I tell Chang'an what you want, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will probably not agree. I have a way to make the two countries continue to have a good relationship from generation to generation."

"Wish to hear its flying."

"For good relations between the two countries, the emphasis is on reciprocity, and the same is true with relatives. In the 15th year of Zhenguan, I married a princess in the Tang Dynasty. Now it is time for Tubo to return favors. Why don't you ask the prime minister to choose a Tubo princess to marry me?" Tang's prince."

"It is not modest to say that the princes of my Tang Dynasty are all well-read poems and books, handsome and elegant gentlemen, and the princess of your country will not be wronged in the slightest when she marries to the Tang Dynasty. When you and I come and go, there will be more people. This is a long story, and the prestige and fame of the Prime Minister in Tubo will reach new heights."

Lu Dongzan finally couldn't keep smiling. He didn't expect this young envoy of Tang Dynasty to be so difficult. After some slick tongue, not only was Tubo not able to marry a Tang princess, but he had to pay a Tubo princess to go out.

Lu Dongzan frowned and said, "However, since ancient times, the Princess Shang of the Central Plains has always married the neighboring countries. How can there be any reason for the neighboring countries to marry the princess?"

Without raising his eyebrows, Li Qinzai said indifferently: "The princesses of the Central Plains Dynasty deserve to marry far away? Which law says it? After the emperor ascended the throne, there will be a new atmosphere. The rules will change later. If you want to get married, you can marry the princess yourself. There are so many princes in the Tang Dynasty, as much as you give, we will marry as much as you want, and I promise not to fail."

At this point in the banquet, the atmosphere finally became a little chilly.

Lu Dongzan's face was gloomy and he didn't speak. Li Qinzai cut the venison in front of him heartlessly with a dagger. The two ignored each other.

After a long time, Li Qinzai was finally full. He took out a handkerchief and wiped his mouth, and said, "Thank you for your hospitality. It tastes good. I'm full. Haha."

Lu Dongzan forced a smile: "It's as long as Li Xianbo is satisfied."

Li Qinzai said: "For the first time here, please take care to arrange the accommodation. It is best to arrange the tent next to the prime minister's handsome tent. I can also have long talks with him day and night, so as to enhance the friendship between you and us."

Lu Dongzan sneered, I'm afraid you are thinking about farting.

There is an envoy from a foreign country living next to the old man's handsome tent, and two hundred highly skilled operas. If the old man farts in the middle of the night, you can smell it and kill me.

Li Qinzai was about to take his leave and leave the tent, when he suddenly paused, turned around and said with a smile: "I heard that your army has reached the border of the Tang Dynasty, with Qinghai Lake as the boundary, dividing Tuyuhun into two, and will occupy the whole of Tuyuhun within half a month. territory?"

Lu Dongzan was taken aback for a moment, and said, "What advice does County Uncle Li have?"

Li Qinzai grinned: "I don't dare to be a teacher, I just advise the prime minister, before swallowing Tuyuhun, you'd better discuss it with the Tang Dynasty, otherwise, I'm afraid your country will not go so smoothly."
