The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

"Your Majesty, Special Envoy, it's been really hard for you to come all the way. We have prepared a room for you to rest. Let's take a rest today. Can we have a formal meeting tomorrow?"

After arriving at the palace of Gaochang Kingdom, Su Dingfang curled her lips unnaturally. Can this place be called a palace?

In his mind, this kind of place can be considered a county government at most. Of course, it is a bit of a loss to be a county government, but not much.

"Then thank you, His Majesty the King."

Mr. Zhao is an old man. He had already tested it out during the greeting just now. Gao Changguo has not made a decision yet. If he pursues the talks today, there should be no good results. It is better to give them one night and he will definitely hide away tomorrow. Don't go.

After hearing Mr. Zhao's answer, the King of Gaochang Kingdom quickly asked someone to take him to the hospital to rest. He really wanted to gain time this night. No matter what big thing happened tonight, he had to discuss this matter. The issue between the two parties is simple and clear. Tomorrow the Tang Dynasty’s special envoy asks you for someone, will you give it or not?

The people of Gaochang Kingdom are also nomadic people. They used to live in tents. Later, they accepted the teachings of the Tang Dynasty culture and began to build their palaces and royal cities. Now they can be considered a small success, but they are different from the Tang Dynasty. Compared with some buildings in the territory, there is no comparison at all.

When I came here just now, some officials here introduced with great interest that they imitated a certain building in the Tang Dynasty. Su Dingfang couldn't help it at that time. Can you call this imitation? You can’t even tell that it’s imitated at all. At most, you’ve only scratched the surface of what I’ve imitated.

Mr. Zhao is quite good. After all, he is a professional diplomat. Even if we see someone's shortcomings, we can't speak out on the spot. This is a very rude behavior. But after arriving in his room, Mr. Zhao also had a look on his face. of contempt.

"After all, the Western barbarians are far different from me, the Tang Dynasty. Even though they have been studying for so many years, what did they learn in the end?"

Mr. Zhao looked at the somewhat dim house in front of him. If it were placed in Chang'an City, it would be the residence of a small wealthy family. Officials would definitely not live in such a place. In addition, many of the furnishings in the house are also It's not very high-end, so Mr. Zhao also wants to complete the mission and return to Chang'an early.

"If you ask me, I shouldn't have given them one night. Why are you so kind? You should have just asked them directly where Xue Yantuo Khan has gone? Either you arrest him for me, or you tell me I'll take the people to catch it myself."

The room was obviously fragrant, but Su Dingfang didn't like the fragrance a bit, so he sneezed twice after saying these few words. People in the Western Regions like all kinds of spices, from China. People don't like it very much.

"General Su, please don't mess around. After all, we are in someone else's country. How can we arrest people directly? What's more, we don't have many people here. If we divide our troops into two places, they can plot against us. It’s easy, we’d better let them arrest people and use diplomacy to force them to arrest people.”

Mr. Zhao's method is cunning and calculated, and Su Dingfang's method can see results quickly, so the two of them are evenly matched. However, Su Dingfang is a smart person. After thinking about it for a while, he also feels that Mr. Zhao's method is better. This can It saves us a lot of trouble, but it will waste a lot of time, not to mention looking at the situation in front of us, they are not planning to arrest anyone.

"Your analysis, old man, if they really wanted to arrest people, they would probably have arrested them by now. The moment you got off the car and saw Xue Yantuo Khan, wouldn't that have a more favorable impression on us, the Tang Dynasty? ?We still have to wait until we tell them?"

Su Dingfang's words also make sense. Everything now is just our guess.

"That's just the best result. The worst result is that they join us in arresting people. You must not talk nonsense tomorrow, and you must not be as brave as an ordinary man. I know your army is very powerful, but tomorrow in someone else's On the territory, we still play a supporting role. If they really don't want to help, we would rather fall out with them than arrest them ourselves."

Speaking of what will happen tomorrow, Mr. Zhao still said a few more words. Su Dingfang is a general on the battlefield and has been victorious over the years, so his self-confidence is inevitably a little higher. Now Mr. Zhao is saying these words just to give Su Dingfang a certain degree of confidence. Reasonableness, on other people’s territory, we don’t say that we should be a good person with our tail between our legs, but we have to be cautious.

"Mr. Zhao, please rest assured. Please remember, everything tomorrow will be yours."

Su Dingfang finally understood along the way why the emperor didn't let him be the special envoy and just let him be responsible for security work. Now after listening to Mr. Zhao's words, he realized how far he was from a real diplomat. Datang did It is powerful, but its influence is extremely limited in this area, and it is not possible for people to listen carefully to your words.

Everyone didn't sleep well that night. Mr. Zhao and Su Dingfang had changed places and there were all kinds of incense in the room. They sneezed hard all night and didn't sleep at all. No matter how long they slept, when the two of them got up the next day, they both saw the dark circles on each other's faces and laughed in unison.

As for the civil and military ministers of Gaochang State, they couldn't sleep well because they couldn't come up with any strategy. Now that things have reached this point, according to the opinion of the state master, they should continue to shirk it. No matter how we explain it, it is impossible To restore the relationship with Datang, the actual situation is here. If you want to take this responsibility away with just a few words, do you think the people of Datang are fools?

But according to General Zhenguo's idea, the army of Tang Dynasty should be united to arrest people immediately.

The combat effectiveness of Gaochang State's army is not very good. If they really confront Xue Yantuo's cavalry, both sides will probably lose. This is what General Zhenguo and others do not want to see, but the combat effectiveness of the Tang army is very strong. We are completely We can lead the way and provide logistics, and then let Datang's army take action, which can drive out Xue Yantuo's people without damaging our own strength.

The two groups of people quarreled for nearly a whole night, and when it was almost dawn, they went down to rest for a while. As for the result...
