Ji Tang

Chapter 989 Treating Zamp?
"What should we do now?"

When Lu Dongzan left, the two of them seemed to be exhausted.Today is quite exciting. If you are not careful, your wealth and life will be ruined.

There are only more than 500 people around him, and these few people are still in the royal city. If an accident happens, they will definitely end up being caught in the trap.

"Wait, what else can I do?"

Wang Xuance was quite open-minded. Anyway, the lives of himself and others were in their hands, and it was impossible to escape.

"Are we going to just surrender like this?"

Ji Xiancheng said unwillingly.

Just when Wang Xuance was about to lie down, Lu Dongzan also came to the Red Palace.Under Songtsan Gampo's surprised gaze, he knelt down directly.

"Zanpu, please kill the old minister!"

bang~
The pen in his hand fell on the desk. Songtsen Gampo stood up in shock and said in surprise: "Why did the teacher say this? Even if there is something that cannot be said clearly? What do you mean by death?"

After finally helping Lu Dongtsen up, looking at the teacher who had suddenly become much older, Songtsen Gampo hurriedly said: "What happened? You tell me!"

Lu Dongzan opened his mouth many times, but in the end he was stunned and didn't say anything. This made Songtsen Gampo anxious!
"Teacher, do you want to rush the students to death? What kind of storms have we not seen in these years? Even if something irreversible does happen, we will face it together. Don't you still believe me?"

Finally, under the pressure of Songtsan Gampo, Ludongtsan finally told what happened just now.

After Lu Dongtsen finished speaking, Songtsen Gampo was also stunned by his teacher's writing.He actually threatened the envoys of the Tang Dynasty, and now he directly besieged the post house with heavy troops?
"Why are you doing this, why?"

Songtsen Gampo sat dejectedly in his seat, perhaps because he was anxious, and he coughed quickly.He moved his palm and saw a bright red color, which made Lu Dongzan's heart ache!
"Zamp, they are the only ones who can save you now."

Lu Dongzan murmured: "You may not know that in the Tang Dynasty, one of their teachers was not only talented in literature and martial arts, but also an unparalleled medical master. He saved Princess Pingyang who was seriously injured and was in critical condition. Get rich.”

"Not only that, these two people also learned a lot of medical skills from Sun Simiao, who is known as the living god. Now your condition may only be saved by them, so I have to do this!"

He looked crazy and said: "Even if a war breaks out between the two countries, as long as Zamp can be saved, I will not hesitate."

"Tubo can live without me, Lu Dongzan, but it cannot live without you!"

"The prince is still young. How could you and the others let go of such an opportunity? The order we have finally established may collapse immediately."

"So, nothing can happen to you, absolutely not!"

Songtsen Gampo looked at the crazy teacher, feeling sad and happy at the same time.The teacher did all this for himself, even at the cost of completely offending Datang.

You must know that his fiefdom is on the border between Datang and Tubo, and the terrain is low. Once the news of the seizure of the Tang envoy spreads back, Datang may not be able to do anything to him, but the teacher's territory and people will definitely be Tang crazy revenge!

"Teacher, why didn't you discuss this with me in advance? By doing this, you are being pushed into a corner!"

Songtsen Gampo was heartbroken. He understood that even if he was cured, unless he completely turned against the Tang Dynasty, the teacher would definitely become the target of the Tang Dynasty to vent its anger. Otherwise, where would the majesty of the Tang Dynasty be?

As the head of a country, he understands the thoughts of an emperor very well.If the matter of detaining the envoys is easily let go, then others will follow suit, and then the majesty of the Tang Dynasty will be wiped out.

Therefore, no matter what the situation is at this time, the teacher has no way out.

Unless there is a war with the Tang Dynasty. But with the teacher's temperament, I am afraid that even if he dies, he will not involve Tubo because of himself.

"Come on!"

Suddenly, Songtsen Gampo's face became solemn, as if he had made up his mind, and he shouted outside.

Whoa!

There was a clash of weapons and armor, and a group of armored warriors appeared in the hall.

"Meet Zamp!"

Songtsan Gampo had no expression on his face and pointed at Ludongzan. With his astonished expression, he said solemnly: "As the prime minister of Tibet, he blackmailed the envoys of the Tang Dynasty and demanded property. This has completely disgraced the face of Tubo." .”

"It is simply unreasonable to detain him after being rejected by the envoys of the Tang Dynasty."

"Come on!"

"The end is here!"

"Quickly take this person into custody and put him in a dungeon. No one can visit him without Ben Zamp's order!"

The visitor looked at Zanpu in astonishment, and looked at the Prime Minister who was also astonished. He looked hesitant and said: "Zanpu, is there any misunderstanding in this? How could the Prime Minister do such a thing? Please Zanpu." Insightful!"

"Please Zanpu Mingcha!"

This time, not only was the guard leader interceding for Lu Dongzan, but the guards behind him also interceded for him!

"How dare you not stop talking about Zamp. What do you want to do? Rebellion?"

Just when Songtsen Gampo was about to get angry, Ludongtsen yelled loudly!

After saying this, he bowed to his disciple and said loudly: "Old minister was distracted for a moment and almost made a big mistake. It would be okay for Zanpu to kill him."

"Old minister, I am ashamed of Zamp!"

Under everyone's surprised gazes, he knelt down on the ground again, and then said to the guard leader: "Why are you still standing there? Are you trying to disobey me?"

The guard looked at Songtsen Gampo, and saw Songtsen Gampo nodding irritably. The guard immediately understood what he was talking about, and then took Lu Dongtsen to the dungeon.

The moment he walked out of the hall, Lu Dongzan looked at his disciples and showed some relief.After all, he has grown up. In a short period of time, he has chosen the decision that is most beneficial to Tubo and himself. Such Zampu must keep him even at all costs.

Seeing the teacher being taken away, Songtsen Gampo looked determined. After thinking for a moment, he walked towards the embassy.

After Lu Dongzan left, Wang Xuance and Ji Xiancheng were speechless.

There are two paths before them now. One is to refuse to obey until death, and then let the falcon bring a letter to ask for help.As long as Tubo has not reached the point of madness, he will never kill them.

Second, promised Ludongzan to treat Songtsen Gampo.But this is basically raising a tiger to cause trouble. Let’s not talk about whether it can be cured or not. Even if it is cured, will they let them go?
Not necessarily?
"Young Master, Tubo Zanpu is waiting outside the door to see you!"

Just when they were struggling, the guard outside the door suddenly came in and said.

Wang Xuance was stunned for a moment, but then he laughed!

Ji Xiancheng didn't understand why, and said angrily: "Why are you laughing? You are so angry, why do you still want to laugh?"

"Of course you have to laugh, not only laugh, but laugh loudly!"

Wang Xuance laughed to himself no matter how dark Ji Xiancheng's face was.Then he pointed outside and said: "If my guess is correct, Ludongzan has been imprisoned by now. And Songtsen Gampo is here, if for no other reason than to apologize."

After saying that, he turned around and walked out.Ji Xiancheng was worried about something happening and hurriedly walked out.When they came to the door, they saw the dignified Songtsen Gampo standing alone outside the door, without even a guard around him, and holding wattle sticks in both hands. This made Wang Xuance and Ji Xiancheng dumbfounded!

"Begging for mercy while carrying a thorn? It seems that Zanpu still has some understanding of my allusions to the Central Plains. But now I just want to see the head of the old thief Lu Dongzan. I wonder if Zanpu can satisfy my small wish?"

After hearing Wang Xuance's words, Songtsen Gampo clasped his hands tightly, but after a moment he smiled and said: "The Marquis of Yingchuan is just joking. My teacher is doing it for me, an unscrupulous disciple. If the Marquis of Yingchuan is angry, just praise him." It’s Pulai.”

"For the sake of my teacher's loyalty, please bypass him this time!"

After saying that, he raised the Jingjing stick, as if he was ready to be beaten and punished, which made Wang Xuance feel itchy with hatred!

"If nothing happens to Zanpu, please leave. I am now your prisoner in Tibet. It is best not to dirty Zanpu's feet."

After saying this, he ignored Songtsen Gampo and walked inside.

"As long as you promise not to pursue the case at this time, Ben Zamp can decide to agree to a condition for you."

"Three!"

Wang Xuance suddenly turned around and looked at Songtsen Gampo, whose face was as purple as a purple, with a smile!
Songtsen Gampo's face turned blue and red, knowing that he had been tricked.It was obvious that he was going to be slaughtered at his door. It would be weird if they let him go!
But three conditions?
"Impossible! There is at most one condition, and it must not harm Tubo, otherwise we will die in a desperate situation!"

Songtsen Gampo showed off his behavior of cutting meat with a knife, but Wang Xuance did not accept this trick.

"Three, this matter is not negotiable. But I can promise that I will not endanger you Tubo."

Songtsan Gampo was silent, thought for a long time, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, but all three conditions must be stated within half a month. No waiting after the expiration date!"

"Okay, just half a month!"

This time Wang Xuance didn't bother anymore and agreed directly.

"The people outside have left. You cannot leave the city during this half month. You can go to other places. Remember, you only have half a month."

After saying that, he waved his sleeves, threw away the thorns, and walked out of the embassy!
Wang Xuance did not stop him, but stepped forward to pick up the wattle sticks. He said regretfully: "After all, he is a foreigner. He doesn't even do the full set of tricks. I was thinking of whipping him a few times, but now I have no chance!"

Ji Xiancheng rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Okay, finally this matter is over. If it really gets into trouble, it will be trouble."

Nodding, Wang Xuance acknowledged Ji Xiancheng's words.

That's right, neither Tang nor Tubo were ready to go to war with each other.In the war with Tubo, the Tang Dynasty first lost its geographical advantage. Even if it won the battle, it would be useless to run to the plateau!
Therefore, it is better not to fight or not to fight, it will be beneficial to both parties!
"Go and call the falcons quickly. Grandma, they will make a lot of money now. If I don't kill them hard, I will be sorry for the fright I got today."

Wang Xuance immediately said to Ji Xiancheng when he returned to the house.

"Do you want teachers to put forward these three conditions?"

When Ji Xiancheng heard that he was going to tame the falcon, he immediately understood what Wang Xuance was thinking.That's right, according to the speed of falcon training, half a month is enough to make a round trip, with a few days to spare in between.

"if not?"

Wang Xuance said unwillingly: "I will only give you two conditions, and we will take the rest."

"we?"

Ji Xiancheng quickly advised: "You can't be careless about this matter. It's better to let the people in the court worry about such a big matter. Isn't it good for us to stay safe?"

"If you don't do this well, you will be punished when you go back. I don't agree with this!"

"You don't agree?"

Wang Xuance glanced at him and said leisurely: "Don't forget that I am the envoy and have the power to make arbitrary decisions when the opportunity arises. Why don't you agree?"

"Besides, we paid for this with our lives, why should we give it all to them?"

"Maybe this condition can save our lives!"

Wang Xuance had a perverse temper to begin with, but now that the sky is high and birds can fly, and the sea is wide and fish can leap, if he still pretends to be a grandson like Chang'an, then he is no longer him.

"Then what do you want? Let's agree first. This condition must not be made for ourselves. Otherwise, even the teacher won't be able to protect you when you go back."

Ji Xiancheng frowned.

No wonder the teacher asked him to follow him. As soon as this kid came out of the Tang Dynasty, he completely let go of himself. He actually made the decision on such a big matter?
It's fine if there are no conditions. Anyway, the mountains are high and the road is far away. They only give me half a month's deadline. It doesn't matter if I make the decision. Even if I return to Chang'an, others will have nothing to say.

But now that Taming Falcon is around, he is fully capable of waiting for news from Chang'an before making a decision.

"You think I'm stupid?"

Wang Xuance said angrily: "We have to discuss this matter and see if we can get a bite out of Tubo for the Tang Dynasty. It would be uncomfortable for Chai Consort to train troops in Jiannan Road. If we can get a piece of territory on the plateau, That’s the best thing.”

"In this way, we can train our troops here, and then we will have a plateau army."

Wang Xuance raised his chin and said thoughtfully: "This place cannot be too far away from the Tang Dynasty. It is best to be close to the Tang Dynasty. But it cannot be too good. If it is too good, Songtsen Gampo will never agree."

Thinking of this, he called the personal guards sent by the teacher and said: "Hurry up and contact the merchants in the Western Regions and Tubo and everyone you can contact, and ask them to check carefully with me to see if there is any food that cannot be grown in Tubo." , it’s not a strategic location for military strategists, it doesn’t need to be too big, but it must be easy to defend and difficult to attack.”

"Remember, it's best to be on the border between Tang Dynasty and Tubo!"

After ordering his personal guards, he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him leaving with his token.

At this time, Ji Xian, who was standing aside, looked at Wang Xuance as if he were a monster.

"Good boy, quite sinister."

He gave a thumbs up and had to express his admiration!
Such a place may be dispensable to Tubo, or even not even glance at.But if it were in the hands of Datang, even if it was all stones and no grass could grow, it still had to be held firmly.

Not only could such a place be used for military training, but with the national power of the Tang Dynasty, a fortress would be built in a short time.From now on, if Tubo wants to attack Tang, it must send people to guard it.Otherwise, if you are not good, your home will be stolen.

"But can Songtsen Gampo agree?"

Ji Xiancheng hesitated.

They can think of it, but others can’t think of it?

"Here, how about taking a look at this letter I wrote? If there is no problem, send it to Chang'an immediately!"

Ji Xiancheng was stunned for a moment, then took a look and was stunned!
"You want to treat Songtsen Gampo?"

Pointing at Wang Xuance, he was trembling all over. At this moment, he felt like opening this kid's brain to see if there was water in it.
