Datang: At the beginning, Princess Wencheng was robbed

Chapter 10 Uncle Misunderstood Xueyan and You

And at the same time...

Shanzhou Governor's Mansion.

The princess has not been seen for two days.

Li Daozong, who has always been conservative and unwilling to spread the matter to everyone, had to tell Du Fengju, the governor of Shanzhou, about the matter.

Li Daozong is just in his early 40s this year, but losing the princess all of a sudden made him almost grow gray hair on his head.

Du Fengju: "Prince Jiangxia, when did this happen?"

Li Daozong: "Just two days ago."

Du Fengju: "Do you know what the other party looks like? Did you leave any message?"

Li Daozong's face was full of depression: "Who still remembers what the other party looks like, and the other party did not leave any message."

On the Tubo side, Dorje also understood some Tang language, though not very fluently.

That is to say: "I recognize the appearance of the other party."

Du Fengju: "Then let someone draw the portrait."

After the painting is finished, everyone will have a look.

With this appearance, what do you say is wrong.

The princess must be robbed.

Afterwards, Du Fengju called one of his subordinates, Captain Guo Yi named Xi Junmai, and asked him to search around with the painted portrait.

Seeing that the hands had already dispersed, Du Fengju also said: "Don't worry, the king, the other party has robbed the princess, and it is of no use. I believe that it will not be long before the other party will send someone to negotiate. It is nothing more than asking for some money."

Li Daozong didn't think so.

But the problem is...

After seeing that portrait, he was not sure again.

From this point of view, it looks like a nobleman. You said that a nobleman traveled thousands of miles to kidnap the princess. What is the purpose of this?
Is it possible...

Li Daozong thought of an impossible possibility.

But he, who is an uncle, has never heard of any man she has a good relationship with.

That's right.

Princess Wencheng was not his daughter at all, but the daughter of his younger brother Li Daobi, Duke of Boling County.

Their common great-grandfather with His Majesty was Li Hu, the former great general of the Zhu Kingdom and Duke of the Tang Dynasty.

counting...

Their relationship has gone a little far.

But this marriage is not chosen from the distant clan.

And the farther the better.

In the end, because he was the princess's uncle, and because he had brought troops here before when he was fighting against Tuyuhun with General Li Jing, he was a little familiar with the way here, so he became an envoy to see off relatives.

But now in this situation, this niece has made his uncle miserable.

If his guess is true, then this matter is really difficult to handle.

I can only say that if you don't want to, eldest niece, you should say so earlier.

The mountainous areas in the northern part of Shanzhou have always been difficult to find people due to the crisscross of mountain paths and numerous branches.

Not to mention that two days have passed now.

If that person really wanted to take the princess into hiding, or even go straight to the north and go deep into the desert, it would be almost impossible to find that person again.

Here in Tubo...

Lu Dongzan was also thinking about this.

but……

Compared to Li Daozong, he was not so panicked.

After all, this was the loss of the princess in Datang's territory, so he would at most bear a secondary responsibility, and Zanpu would not really blame him.Moreover, if it really doesn't work, let Datang send another princess.

Also, he had to wonder if this was arranged by Datang himself. Although the possibility was not very high, after all, they had not dealt with Datang enough to form sufficient trust.

in this way……

Li Daozong didn't know how many cups of tea he drank, and how many steps he walked back and forth.

Finally, at noon that day, news came back.

"Report to the governor, there is news."

Everyone stood up suddenly.

"Say it!"

"A Qiang people who live in the northern mountainous area were entrusted to bring us a message, saying that the princess was in his hands. The other party asked to see the Tang Dynasty's wedding envoy and the Tubo's wedding envoy alone. He also said, Only two people can go, and no one else can be brought. And you can’t bring weapons."

Li Daozong finally relaxed after hearing the news.

At least...it wasn't the worst he could think of.Uncle misunderstood Xueyan and you.

As for Lu Dongzan, after hearing the news, he finally had some clues.

He asked directly: "Did the other party say what time and where?"

Then the person who reported the letter, that is, the former Guoyi Captain Xi Junmai said: "Tomorrow, at noon, on a mountain fifty miles away in the northern mountainous area."

"Dalun, is there any fraud here?"

When Li Daozong thought about running so far...

Duoji, the Tubo guard here, also interjected.

"What's the matter? Are the wedding guests in Tubo scared?"

Li Daozong said immediately.

Lu Dongzan quickly suppressed Duoji.

"What are you talking about?"

Duoji finished counting, and said with a calm expression: "I have heard that people in Tang have a custom of handicapped cars when sending off relatives. Thinking about it, this should be it. Then I will accompany Tang to send relatives off for a trip." gone."

Absolutely no one should look down on Tubo.

At this time, in Lu Dongzan's view, the person who robbed the princess was nothing more than a thief who wanted to ask for money.

If it can really be paid with money, it would be a simple matter.

then……

The two of them didn't wait any longer.

After all, fifty miles may not seem far at first glance, but in fact it is still a bit far.

Simply put, Li Daozong immediately proposed to take the first step.

In fact, he was not impatient before, but now the fire is burning to the brow, so he can't help being in a hurry.

Lu Dongzan had no objection either.

Then, guessing that Du Fengju was also afraid that there would be some accidents between the two of them on the road, he ordered Guo Yi's captain Xi Jun to buy: "Take some people and escort the Jiangxia County King and the Tubo envoy all the way. If you can't get close, then escort them to That's half of it."

Xi Junmai: "Yes."

Everyone quickly prepared their horses. There were about [-] people in the group, but it was enough, and they headed towards the north with smoke and dust.

As for Wei Yan and Li Xueyan.

Li Xueyan finally knew why Wei Yan didn't have to take away everything in the camp.

because……

Wei Yan actually has a camp elsewhere.

At first she thought it belonged to someone else.

But when he found that there was no one inside, and Wei Yan was lying on the bed with peace of mind and shouting 'tired to death'.

She understood that this should be his second hiding place as a horse bandit.

In the camp at this time, there are vegetables, meat, and cooking pots.

Others just eat some dry food.

It will be better next time.

Wei Yan even started cooking.

And it’s also cooking.

She had never seen that bottle of golden yellow very clear oil.

But the eggs were really fried, and they even made beer duck.

When he was doing it, she asked him what it was.

Wei Yan said: "Beer, try it."

She couldn't hold back her curiosity, so she sniffed and tasted it, but it turned out to be bitter and bitter, not good at all.

Seeing that Wei Yan smiled, she even beat Wei Yan.

He felt that Wei Yan must be lying to her.

But how happy she was before, how miserable she was crying when eating later.

Um!I guess it's going to be like this in the future.

Although following Wei Yan is very sweet, when thinking about the future...

The tears couldn't stop falling down.

Wei Yan quickly comforted her: "Okay, don't cry, I promise you, I will take you back to Chang'an to see your parents after a while."

She only thought he was comforting her, and, how could he bring her back to Chang'an?
He said it all, all the gates on the road are his portraits.
