I directed the Xuanwumen Incident

Chapter 572 Accountability to Datang?The ministers were furious!
Zangbo's face darkened.

This Gadan Gampo is indeed the biggest stumbling block for him to reach the Zanpu position!
However, the high priest was calm and relaxed at the moment, as if he had expected that Gadan Gampo would jump out and object.

"Since there is a disagreement, let's vote on it."

He raised his hand and said,

"Those who agree to establish a new Zanpu first, and then deal with the follow-up matters, please get up."

"Those who agree to find out the murderer first and avenge Zanpu before setting up a new Zanpu, please sit down."

"please!"

After the words fell, he naturally stood still.

Zangbo also stood up with a swish.

"Brother had an accident, I am very heartbroken! But now that the rumors have spread outside, our tribes in Tubo will definitely be unstable!"

He looked sad, but he said firmly,

"So, it is imperative that there is a new Zamp."

"Whether it's about stabilizing the country or finding the real culprit, we all need someone to lead us!"

As soon as this remark came out, many princes present also nodded.

Even the new nobles feel that what Zangbo said makes sense——

No country can live without a king!
You can be outside, but you cannot die!After death, a new king must be established!Otherwise, the dragons will have no leader, and they will split up!
"I agree, first establish a new Zanpu."

"I also agree, Lord Zangbo is right."

"..."

Several princes got up one after another, and some looked at Gadan Gampo.

Gadan Gampo naturally refused to get up, but seeing the situation in front of him, he could only keep a gloomy face and said nothing.

"More than half of the princes have stood up, then, I announce that a new Zanpu will be elected now."

The high priest smiled and glanced at Gadan Gampo.

Songtsan is already dead, no matter how powerful you are, what can you do?
"Zanpu of all ages are descendants of gods."

The high priest said in a deep voice,

"All, only the blood of the direct line is eligible to serve as Zanpu of my Tubo."

"Then, the choice is obvious - Lord Zangbo is the younger brother of Songtsen Gampo, a direct descendant of the god!"

"His age, experience and ability are also suitable."

"I think that Lord Zangbo should be my new Zanpu in Tibet!"

boom!
Before the high priest finished speaking, Gadan Gampo slammed the table!

"What is obvious? It's not like Zanpu has no direct descendants!"

he scolded,

"If you want to establish a new Zanpu, you have to be a Ligongri Gongzan! This is justified!"

When the high priest heard the words, he showed a playful expression.

"Oh? What do you mean...a five-year-old child as Zanpu instead of an adult direct prince?"

He said hesitantly,

"Prince Gadan, do you think that Zanpu from Tubo is a joke?!"

"Or, you are afraid that Tubo will not be chaotic, and you want the tribes below to make trouble?"

"Or... you want to hold the young master hostage and replace Zanpu's real power?!"

These three questions are all heart-breaking questions!

Gadan Gampo's face was constantly changing, and he was extremely resentful!
"You are talking nonsense! If I have such thoughts, the vultures will peck my eyes blind!"

He got up and said angrily.

boom!
The high priest also put away his smile, and slapped the table hard!
"Since there is no such thought, it is already obvious who to support!"

He ordered,

"The only choice is Prince Zangbo!"

"Only he can stabilize the overall situation in Tubo and avenge Songtsan Gampo!"

"Everyone here, what do you think?!"

All of a sudden, the four or five princes present all agreed:
"I support! Li Zangbo as the new Zanpu!"

"I support it too! There is no choice! And he may not be worse than Songtsan Gampo! Songtsan Gampo seems wise, but in fact... hum!"

"That's right! I believe Zangbo can lead us well!"

A few voices of agreement made the situation in Zangbo great!
Even a few neutral princes began to waver at this moment, looking at Gadan Gampo, they wanted to say something but dared not say it, and could only reluctantly remain silent.

The corners of Zangbo's mouth could not help but rise at this moment.

The high priest kicked him to make him pay attention to his face at the moment.

"Uncle Gadan, in fact, I don't think I have the ability to be a good Zanpu. I am far behind my elder brother."

Zangbu put his expression on his face, looked at Gadan Gampo, and said earnestly,
"Right now, I only have one heart, which is to avenge my elder brother! I don't want to do anything else!"

"When it comes to government affairs, I am far behind you... In fact, it is the most suitable for you to be the Zanpu!"

"Xin Zanpu, I also have the right to recommend - why not, let me recommend you as Xin Zanpu!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone's expressions changed!

"Then how can it be! Gadan is already a branch, let him be a Zanpu, that would tarnish the bloodline!"

"Yes! He is not qualified!"

"Lord Zangbo, don't underestimate yourself! I think you are better than Songtsan Gampo!"

Several princes immediately expressed their opposition.

Tubo regards the blood more seriously than the Central Plains!

Even in the Central Plains dynasty, no emperor died and chose the king's uncle to succeed him (except for Zhu Di, who was robbed).

Even if they have to choose, they usually choose their peers, or pick one from the clan to adopt.

As for Tubo, there has never been such a precedent.

The prince of the branch, just like a married daughter, is destined to wither elsewhere!

In a word - don't get involved!
In fact, what Zangbo said was all to suppress the momentum of Gadan Gampo!Let's join forces to oppose him!
While opposing him as Zamp, he also opposed his opinion!

In this way, he will no longer be a stumbling block on his Zanpu road!
Sure enough, hearing the strong opposition from the crowd, Gadan Gampo's face was extremely ugly.

He had no intention of fighting for the position!It's Zangbo, the sinister boy, who deliberately set him on fire!
"Pretentious, more sinister than a fox!"

Gadan Gampo got up angrily, waved his sleeves and said,

"You guys continue to perform here! I won't have anything to do with you!"

"Humph!"

After finishing speaking, he turned and left, the pace was still very fast!It seems to be a little sneaky!
His keen political sense made him vigilant - this palace is not safe now!
He was going back to his camp.

By the way, protect Gongri Gongzan!

Boom boom boom!
Gadan Gampo left without saying anything, causing everyone present to be slightly taken aback.

"If he wants to go, let's go!"

The High Priest whispered,

"Now, let's continue to promote the new Zanpu!"

"I propose once again—Lord Zangbo as the new Zanpu!"

"Who is in favor and who is against?!"

Originally wanted to keep the old guy Gadan, but who would have expected him to run so fast with oil on his feet!
It doesn't matter if he runs away, the biggest stumbling block is gone, and the Zanpu position is already in his pocket!
"I agree!"

"I agree too!"

"Then... I, we also agree, there should be a new Zanpu."

"..."

After a round of voting, Zangbo successfully sat on the throne and became the No.30 fourth-generation Zanpu of Tubo!

And his first order as Zanpu was to hold Tuyuhun accountable!
And the second order is to hold Datang accountable!
……

Chang'an, Tai Chi Palace.

Inside the imperial study.

Li Shimin closed the door, his face couldn't hold back any longer!

"Listen! Your plan really succeeded! That kid Xue Rengui is really good!"

He said excitedly,
"He actually killed Songtsan Gampo without making a sound!"

"Tibetan must be in chaos now! Murong Fuyunzhen is probably scared to death!"

"I want to summon Xue Rengui, and I want to reward him personally! This kid... gave me a big surprise!"

In the house, there were only Li Shimin and Xu Fenglei.

Xu Fenglei also smiled at this moment.

"I've always said he was a general."

he replied,
"A thousand-mile horse is easy to find, but Bole is hard to find. Fortunately, I, Bole, managed to find him among the coolies."

"Your Majesty, don't be in a hurry to reward him, he will definitely not come back now, otherwise it will be a bad thing if someone finds out his whereabouts and finds clues."

"He should go around Xue Yantuo, then go south to Youzhou, and return to Chang'an."

"I guess it will take two months."

Li Shimin nodded in satisfaction.

"Careful, it really is enough to be cautious!"

He clapped his hands and smiled,
"I just like this kind of general! In the future, you will find more on the road!"

"The old ones can't do it anymore, so the newcomers need to step up! Among the younger generation, I originally thought that Su Dingfang was the best."

"Looking at it now, it must be Xue Rengui who is even better!"

Xu Fenglei nodded.

That is natural.

It doesn't matter how many resources I have spent!

"Let's not talk about him, let's talk about what to do next."

Li Shimin tapped his fingers on the table, his eyes suddenly became sharp,
"Eight years of Zhenguan, it's almost time to send troops!"

"Then King Murong Zun is in Chang'an right now."

"I think..."

Xu Fenglei waved his hand.

"Your Majesty, you don't need to talk too much with me, just follow your ideas, that's right."

he replied,
"I fully support His Majesty in fulfilling his wishes!"

Li Shimin suddenly smiled.

"Okay, okay! Okay, okay..."

he waved,

"You arrange it, and immediately control King Murong Zun!"

"I'm going to hold a grand meeting tomorrow!"

……

Chang'an post house.

King Murong Zun sat in the room, looking at the brocade box in front of him, with a somewhat troubled expression.

He has now taken the lead!

But Li Shimin didn't seem to want to summon him, it seemed that he wanted to wait for Songtsen Gampo to come together, and then summon him together.

In that case...the first-mover advantage will be gone!

He had to think of a way, first to meet Emperor Tang!
"You have to establish a good relationship with the people of Honglu Temple before you have the opportunity to meet the Emperor of Tang."

King Murong Zun got up and took out some gold, silver and jewels from the brocade box, and said with determination,

"Time is running out, let's start with them!"

"That Tang Jian looks so fat, he must be greedy for money!"

He was about to go out to bribe with the treasure, but suddenly, his door was slammed open!

Boom boom boom!
In an instant, countless black-armored soldiers poured into the house and surrounded him!

King Murong Zun: "!!!"

"This! You are..."

He widened his eyes and said in horror,

"What's the meaning!"

Tangren, are you going to imprison him?

What he was most worried about...was it really about to happen!
"King Murong!"

The leader Li Junxian said solemnly,
"excuse me!"

"Come on! Tie him up and take him to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment!"

Swish!

Two imperial guards stepped forward and captured King Murong Zun!
"Ah! Why do you arrest me! Why do you arrest me!"

King Murong Zun shouted,
"I am Prince Tuyuhun! The two countries will not be beheaded when they go to war! Your Tang Dynasty actually wants to murder Prince Tuyuhun!"

"Does Khan want to gain infamy and notoriety!"

He knew that Datang was not afraid of going to war with Tuyuhun, but Li Shimin cherished his reputation very much!
So... These words should be useful!
However, Li Junxian sneered.

"Murder? You think too much, my Majesty is aboveboard, and I never do anything to murder others."

he said,

"Only a major incident happened recently. You have some suspicions. Please go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to investigate."

"take away!"

After all, the imperial guards had firmly restrained King Murong Zun, no matter how much he struggled, it was useless, and he could only be dragged away from the posthouse.

……

political affairs hall.

This is an emergency meeting.

At the meeting, everyone's expressions were a little dignified——

They all knew that Songtsen Gampo was dead!

Although he died in the territory of Tuyuhun, he also died on the way to Tang to ask for a marriage!
Datang also has a certain responsibility!

"Hey!"

Li Shimin sighed softly,

"This Songtsan Gampo is fine, why did he die?"

"He is such an important person, why doesn't he bring more guards around him? It is said that he brought two hundred guards, what's the use?"

"It's ridiculous...the two hundred guards were unharmed, but he died! Do you think it's ridiculous?"

"It's just too ridiculous!"

Xu Fenglei sat on the side, watching Li Shimin sighed, feeling a little overwhelmed.

Snapped!
Li Shimin kicked him, signaling him to be more serious!
It's a meeting!

This matter was carried out in secret, and everyone didn't know about it... Then of course we need to rely on acting skills now!
"Um... indeed."

Xu Fenglei barely managed his expression, and said seriously,

"Songtsan Gampo is too much fun! If it were me, I would have to bring at least 1000 people, or even tens of thousands!"

"After all, this is the trip of the king!"

"Your Majesty, I also suggest that you bring more people with you when you go out in the future, and you must not appear alone in a place with a wide view."

"Songtsen Gampo's lesson, we must bear in mind!"

Li Shimin nodded approvingly.

"The master is right."

Changsun Wuji said in a deep voice,
"With the incident of Songtsan Gampo, Your Majesty must be more careful when traveling in the future."

"Oh... what a happy event, but a funeral! What's this called?"

"It's really... Now that new Zanpu from Tubo has come to Guoshu for accountability, what a fart he is to blame! What does it have to do with our Datang!"

"He died in Tuyuhun, if he wants to settle accounts, he has to find Murong Fuyun!"

All the ministers nodded.

"Exactly! Why does he hold Datang accountable? What qualifications does he have?!"

"It's as if our Tang people killed Songtsen Gampo, what a joke!"

"Yes! Your Majesty, we have to push back! We can't be held accountable by the Tubo barbarians for nothing!"
