Back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to be the emperor

Chapter 587 The Covenant of the Red Mountain Palace (2)

Hongshan Palace, the palace built by Songtsan Gampo after the unification of the whole of Tibet, was built on the Red Mountain. The first floor is magnificent. Standing on it, one can have an unobstructed view of the surrounding grasslands. It really has the meaning of seeing all the small mountains at a glance. Now, Li Xian is standing on the highest floor of the bedroom, but he doesn't say much. Some of Fang Qiu's emotions were just silent contemplation.

It’s not easy. It’s been six years since I left Luoyang, the eastern capital. Although it’s not painstaking, it’s at least exhausting. Now, I’ve finally completed the extermination of Tubo, the biggest border trouble around the Tang Dynasty. Important task - the war has come to an end now, even if there is chaos in the future, it is just a side issue, and it will definitely not change the iron-clad fact that Tubo has been destroyed. Facing such a brilliant victory, Li Xian really has reason to celebrate It was the last time, but at this time Li Xian didn't have that kind of thought. He was not worried about the remnants of Tubo in the city causing chaos, but worried about the changing situation in the country.

The prince may be doomed this time!Thinking of the upcoming turmoil in the eastern capital, Li Xian couldn't help but feel a little hesitant. It wasn't all because Empress Wu was bound to become a big deal again because of this incident, but also because of his brotherly friendship—even though Li Xian Xian has always disliked Li Xian's headstrong and narrow-mindedness, but blood is always thicker than water, no matter how conflicted between brothers, they are still brothers, and watching one brother after another die tragically at the hands of Empress Wu, Li Xian naturally does not like it. Maybe there is a good mood to speak of, but it is one thing to be out of reach, even if it can be saved, Li Xian will not be able to help, and this is the helplessness of being born in the emperor's family, probably because Li Xian is no longer alone. There are still a large group of loyal subordinates who need to be taken care of, no matter how much he can't bear it, Li Xian can only sit and watch Li Xian sink.

"His Royal Highness, Asu Gu Tsering and his party have arrived outside the palace gate."

Just when Li Xian was deep in thought, Zhang Mingwu walked up the stairs lightly, looked at Li Xian's back, hesitated for a while, and walked slowly behind Li Xian, lowered his voice, and reported said a word.

"Well, let them wait in the Yizheng Hall on the first floor."

Hearing the sound, Li Xian turned around slowly, glanced at Zhang Mingwu, and ordered indifferently.

"Your Highness, those guys will bring their personal guards into the palace together, and the general will not dare to make decisions without authorization. Your Highness, please make a clear decision."

Hearing Li Xian's confession, Zhang Mingwu's face immediately flashed a hint of annoyance, and he replied angrily.

"Oh? Interesting, you are going to pass on Gu's order, saying that Gu will only wait for a quarter of an hour, and those who have not arrived at the Palace of Political Affairs will never have to come. Gu Zi will go to visit, go."

Li Xian didn't care about A Su Gu Tsering's defeated generals at all, and he was not afraid of these guys causing trouble. Even though these people still had tens of thousands of troops in their hands, in Li Xian's opinion, They are all mobs. Without the cover of the city, they are all toothless tigers. If they dare to move around, it is not difficult to wipe them out directly. There is no need to give them a good look. After hearing Zhang Mingwu Li Xian's expression didn't change, but a hint of ferocity flashed in his eyes, and he gave the answer in a cold voice.

"promise!"

Zhang Mingwu had long been displeased with Asu Gu Tsering and the others, but because Li Xian didn't order them, he didn't dare to teach them a lesson. Now that he had Li Xian's clear instructions, he was happy to watch the four generals play. He hurriedly answered, turned around, and went downstairs with big strides, rushing straight to the palace gate.

"General Zhang, do you have any orders from Your Highness?"

At the gate of Hongshan Palace, A Su Gu Tsering and other four generals stood in front, and behind them neatly lined up [-] strong personal guards. Although the four generals did not talk to each other, they exchanged glances with each other from time to time Opinion, seeing Zhang Mingwu walking out from the palace gate, the spirits of the four generals couldn't help being lifted. After exchanging glances with each other quickly, they walked forward, represented by Asu Gu Tsering, With a smirk on his face, he cupped his hands and asked modestly.

"His Royal Highness has an order: tell you to go to the Yizheng Hall to have an audience immediately. If you don't arrive within a quarter of an hour, you don't have to go forever. My Royal Highness will go to visit. Please choose your own choice! Burn incense and time!"

Zhang Mingwu had already had enough of the mushroom-like birds of the four Tubo generals. Now that he was holding Li Xian's command, he would stop talking nonsense with these annoying guys, so he went down coldly. Immediately after the order was issued, several personal guards brought the incense table, incense burner and other things, and without hesitation, a half of the incense was already lit.

"General Zhang, this, this..."

A Su Gu Tsering obviously didn't expect Li Xian to give such a decisive order, and he was dumbfounded immediately. He was just about to have another fight with Zhang Mingwu, but he saw that Zhang Mingwu's face was already tense, and he put on a non-negotiable expression I couldn't continue talking, so I had no choice but to retreat back in dismay.

"Brother, what should we do?"

"Damn it, I'm afraid I won't be able to enter this palace, if, if..."

"It's not easy. I'll enter the palace alone. If that guy changes his mind, wouldn't we be in a trap? Why don't you talk about it again, bro."

Chili Hezan and the others had also heard the order relayed by Zhang Mingwu, and they were all cautious in their hearts. They were afraid that they would be ambushed by Li Xian if they entered the palace, and they would be punished by Li Xian if they did not enter the palace. , Feeling guilty, they all wanted to encourage Asu Gu Tsering to find out the truth, but inside and outside the words, Asu Gu Tsering was identified as the leader of the generals. Of course, this is obviously not a good intention , It is entirely for Aso Gu Tsering to go to Lei.

"Hmph, if you don't want to go, you can just wait here and go by yourself."

Asuku Tsering is not a fool, he could see the intentions of all his colleagues, he couldn't help but feel angry, and he didn't want to talk to everyone anymore, so he snorted coldly, turned around, and strode alone Walked to the palace gate.

"This……"

"Ugh……"

Seeing Asogu Tsering enter the palace without saying a word, Chili Hezan and the others couldn't help being a little dumbfounded. After exchanging knowing glances, they each sighed a few times and didn't say anything more. They all rushed to the Yizheng Hall alone, not for other reasons, but because the big guys are all sensible people. If Tang Jun really wants to destroy the various tribes, it really doesn't take much energy. After all, the four gates of the outer city are already under control. In the hands of Tang Jun, with Tang Jun's frighteningly powerful combat power, the remaining troops in the city are really not enough for Tang Jun to kill. The reason why there was such an awkward situation before was not because I was really afraid of an ambush in the palace, but because I was sitting on the ground. The mentality of raising the price is just at play, since there is no need to bargain, how long will it be before entering the palace, is it really necessary to wait for Li Xian to lead the army to visit in person?
"The last general will wait to see His Highness!"

Asogu Tsering and the others are all top officials in Tubo, and they are very familiar with the Hongshan Palace. They rushed all the way to the Yizheng Hall without a word, and they saw that Li Xian was not sitting on the throne, but sitting in the front There was a person standing with hands hanging down behind the few sons, and it was Hertz's praise. All the generals were surprised, but they didn't dare to ask any more questions. He saluted and greeted incomparably.

"Forget it."

Li Xian glanced at everyone expressionlessly, then waved and shouted casually.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

The more casual Li Xian was, the more anxious the generals felt. They really couldn't figure out how Li Xian would punish him and the others, but at this moment, no one had the guts to ask questions, so they could only thank each other. Stepping aside, the four of them gathered together and stood face to face with the dejected Hertzan.

"Gu has always been a trustworthy person. Since he said that he would make you the lord of a country, he will never break his promise. However, firstly, this matter still needs to be reported to the imperial court. Secondly, Gu has looked at your jurisdiction before. Seeing that there are many overlaps, if we don't discuss it clearly, there will be many disputes in the future. I am worried about this, so I specially summoned the lords of the country to discuss this matter, so as to avoid endless troubles in the future. I don't know what you think. ?”

Li Xian looked around at the generals with different expressions, put on airs like the prince of the Heavenly Dynasty, and opened his mouth unhurriedly.

"Is what His Highness said true?"

"This, this... Your Highness, you..."

All the generals had already prepared the worst plan to lose their military power, but they never expected that Li Xian would really plan to keep his promise. For a moment, they all raised their heads in amazement, and uttered in one go voice of doubt.

"Gu Su is not a lie, but the ugly words have to be said first. These cities and the surrounding three hundred miles are not within the scope of your division. They are under the direct jurisdiction of our Tang Dynasty. The lonely general sent troops here to deter Xiaoxiao. Brothers, if you have disputes with each other, you should not use swords or weapons. If you have any disputes, you can go to these cities to file a lawsuit with my Tang officials, can you hear everything clearly, huh?"

The snow-covered plateau is not a paradise, and Li Xian has no intention of bringing the entire snow-covered plateau into the territory of the Tang Dynasty for the time being, but he will not forget the curse that should be placed on the so-called lords of the gang. Then he pressed his hand, stopped the generals' surprise and doubt, and said in a solemn tone.

"Your Highness is wise!"

"Naturally, I will wait for everything."

"As it should be!"

Now that everyone is under the eaves, how dare they not bow their heads, since Li Xian said so, all the generals must hurry up to express their opinions, but Hertz Zan's face turned blue from holding back, Not for anything else, just because of the so-called jurisdiction——the best parts of Uru are these cities, and if Li Xian took them away like this, the rest would really have no valuable land, I thought to myself If you want to protest, but you don't have the courage, you can only sulk all by yourself.

"That's very good. Since you all have no objections, then this matter is settled. As for the issue of your territory, I'm not familiar with it, so I won't get involved. Let's make it clear here, gentlemen. When there is news, report it to Guzhi.”

Li Xian seemed to be very satisfied with the attitude of the crowd, but he obviously had no interest in arguing with them. After explaining a sentence, he left the Palace of Political Affairs on his own, leaving the generals to look stupid. However, the matter involved family interests, and the crowd couldn't stay silent for a long time. Just as Li Xian left, there was already a lot of chatter behind him...
