Zha Lang finally knew Xu Zizhen's virtue, so he stopped making circles with him, and said with a smile, "Okay, but Zhuo Ya is not only the sister of the king, but also the goddess in the eyes of the Tubo people. Treasures come to propose marriage? How about showing the gift list to the king first?"

Xu Zizhen patted his sleeves, and said angrily, "Bowage gift? No."

"No...no?" Zha Lang was stunned, staring at Xu Zizhen with wide eyes.

Xu Zizhen turned around and looked at Zha Lang with a strange expression: "That's right, Zhuo Ya is your younger sister, and she's your peer. There's no reason in this world to hand over the dowry to your brother-in-law, right?"

Zhalang felt a tightness in his chest: "This...you..."

Xu Zizhen laughed: "Okay, Your Majesty, I won't joke with you anymore. To be honest, Zhuo Ya has definitely followed me. If you don't agree to her, she might elope with me. Then you won't get anything. Thanks to the panic, right?"

Zhalang said with a dark face: "Now this king hasn't got anything."

"If you don't have it now, it doesn't mean you won't have it in the future." Xu Zizhen chuckled, took out a piece of paper from his pocket, and handed it over, "Look at this first."

Zhalang took it and saw a figure drawn with charcoal on the paper, long and round, with a seat underneath.

"This is... Da Song's cannon?" Zha Lang's heart skipped a beat. Of course he knew this thing, and he had already had the idea of ​​getting the cannon forging method into his hands.

Xu Zizhen shook his head: "It should be said that it is my improved artillery, which has a longer range and greater power. To be disrespectful, I can get ten of these cannons to blow up your meal. The Potala Palace was flattened."

Zhalang narrowed his eyes slightly, waiting for Xu Zizhen to continue.

Xu Zizhen stuffed the picture into Zha Lang's hands, and said leisurely: "I have no strengths, but one thing is good, that is, I will definitely do what I said. For example, I will promise Your Majesty to help you strengthen your national strength. This blueprint only represents one of the benefits I can bring to you, as for the others... the future will last forever."

He closed his mouth after saying these words, and then looked at Zhalang quietly. He was not afraid of Zhalang's rejection, because Tubo's life is actually not easy now, and this was learned from both Song Dynasty and Xixia A lot of news.

Today's Tubo is no longer the powerful Tubo in the Tang Dynasty, but has several internal forces. Although Zhalang is known as the king of Tubo, he is only the stronger one, and now he is focused on eliminating other forces. Had to make good friends with neighboring countries in secret, such as uniting Song Dynasty to attack Xia a few years ago, but the Song Dynasty court did not know that Tubo actually had contacts with Xixia secretly at that time, so the Song Dynasty did not achieve much victory that time, because Tubo Pulled his hind legs in the back.

This approach seems shameless, but the king of Tubo is also helpless. With his current strength, he can't afford to offend whether it is the Song Dynasty or Xixia, and the four words Xu Zizhen said "enhance the national strength" really moved Zarang.

Although Zha Lang is in Luoxi City, he has his own source of information. Although he has never met Xu Zizhen, he knows everything Xu Zizhen does. In fact, there is one thing Xu Zizhen doesn't know about him, that is, he wants to recruit Li Meng As a son-in-law, the real purpose is to draw Xu Zizhen in.

Improved artillery, which is absolutely tempting for Tubo, who is not good at smelting. Zhalang is a smart man. He knows that Xu Zizhen dares to say this because he can introduce the forging method of artillery, including raw materials, craftsmen, and craftsmanship. Lang has such a killer weapon, then the recovery of the tribes is just around the corner, and even his Zhalang Zanpu is likely to become the emperor Zhalang who unified Tubo.

In addition, what moved him the most was Xu Zizhen's last sentence "the future will be long", Xu Zizhen... how many things will he bring?

"Mr. Xu, forgive me, Song people are always cunning, can this king trust you?"

Xu Zizhen opened his mouth and was about to speak, but he heard some movement outside the closed palace door. He rolled his eyes and said intentionally: "Anyway, Zhuo Ya is already mine. If you don't agree, my son will not care about you by this time next year." Call me uncle."

With a bang, the palace door was suddenly pushed open, and Zhuo Ya rushed in with a face full of embarrassment: "You...what are you talking nonsense? Why am I already yours? And what...what son?"

Xu Zizhen immediately stood up like an electric shock, and said with panic on his face: "You, you... why are you outside? I was joking with our uncle, don't be angry, don't be angry, I promise I won't dare again in the future."

Zhuoya gritted her teeth and stared at him, but there was nothing she could do about him. This is the main hall of the palace, and even she didn't dare to act wildly, so she could only stomp her feet in resentment: "You wait for me!"

Zha Lang suddenly smiled, stood up and hooked Xu Zizhen's shoulders: "Okay, okay, let's go, my king invites you to taste my Tubo delicacies."

Regardless of whether Xu Zizhen is cunning or not, it can be seen from the scene just now that the friendship between him and Zhuo Ya is absolutely true, which is enough for him. Didn't Xu Zizhen say it himself, I am his uncle .

That night, a small banquet was held in the Tubo Palace, besides Xu Zizhen and the others, there was also Yu Qi from Xixia, Zhalang as the host, and of course Doki Dolma's mother.

Xu Zizhen has only now figured out that Zanpu in Tubo almost means king, while the queen is called Zanmo, and he always thought Zhalang Zanpu was a whole person's name.

Zhuo Ya kept blushing throughout the meal, and although Zha Lang didn't say anything about Xu Qin, his attitude was already obvious, and her sister-in-law was also looking at Xu Zizhen and Li Meng all the time, with a hint of Meaningful smile.

I thought the meal would end in a dull way, but Zha Lang suddenly said: "Mr. Xu, do you still need to go to Xixia? I don't know when you plan to leave?"

Xu Zizhen was holding a leg of lamb in his hand and was gnawing on it. Hearing this, he nodded and said vaguely, "I might have to leave after staying for a few days. There are a lot of things waiting for me to do, and time is tight."

Zhalang nodded: "This king also thinks it's better for you to leave earlier." Xu Zizhen was stunned for a moment, and the leg of lamb also stopped. Zhalang smiled and continued, "You have picked the most beautiful flowers in our Tubo, now the news It hasn't been reported yet, you still have time to go, otherwise I'm afraid you will be in big trouble."

"Hahaha……"

Except for Zhuoya whose face was even redder, everyone laughed. Zhalang's words were too obvious. Zhuoya is the goddess in the hearts of all the people in Tubo. Block Xu Zizhen outside the gate of the Potala Palace?

Xu Zizhen had a thick skin anyway, dropped the leg of lamb and stood up with a smile: "Okay, then let's leave tomorrow morning, but uncle, I have to trouble you."

Zhalang laughed and said, "You and I are already our own family members, so why not talk about trouble, just say it."

Xu Zizhen wiped his mouth: "Help me build a house when you have time later. It doesn't need to be too big, just half of it. It will be used as a new house when Zhuo Ya and I come back."

Zha Lang's smile instantly froze on his face, this kid really dares to speak, half the size of the Potala Palace?
