This is the main general of Songtsan, with a rough personality and a good fighter.

"Let's take a look at the letter sent by this Tang man." Songtsan Gampo said.

Dalbato stared at the letter and said, "My lord, it's obvious that the Tang people are plotting to detain our Tubo envoys. This tone cannot be tolerated. Why don't we attack Hezhou?"

Songtsen Gampo didn't deny or affirm Dalbato's suggestion, and then several ministers and nobles all entered the camp, and Dalbato said the matter and everyone fell into deep thought.

"Your Majesty is not allowed to go to war. The envoys of Tubo have not had any accidents. If our army overwhelms the border, the Tang people will probably use this as an excuse. Then they will have an excuse to use troops against us. It is absolutely impossible." A minister said.

There are two or three people who agree with his point of view, the nobles don't have much expression, a Lu Dongzan is nothing to them, the minister can be recruited if they are gone, even if this person is talented, they have to pay a lot A big price is absolutely impossible.

"Your Majesty, in fact, we can stand still. What is mentioned in the letter from the Tang Dynasty is not important. The Tang Dynasty is not willing to fight with us among the ministers. Moreover, we have a prosperous army in Tubo. It is estimated that the two sides will go to war if they really go to war. It lasted for a long time, which is very detrimental to the Tang people. Maybe the Tang people detained the Tubo ministers for another reason. Why wait impatiently? Regardless, I also asked the Tubo king to shoot some soldiers and horses, so as to put some pressure on the Tang people, so that they dare not take it lightly. Let’s go to Tibet.” Minister Doga Danba said.

"What you said makes sense." Songtsan Gampo and others studied for a long time before they went back to rest. The next morning, Doga Danba went to Hezhou to join Doji Pubu under the escort of a thousand cavalry.

After the two met, early in the morning, they smelled the scent of the Tang cavalry camp on the opposite side. The fragrance was overflowing. Duoga Danba asked curiously, "What's going on with General Doji Pubu."

Doga Danba asked, and Doji Pubu answered truthfully.

"What the Tang people are doing, the general must pay attention, I'm afraid someone has set a trap." Doga Danba said.

"Yes, I must pay attention next time." Dojibub said.

In the camp of the Tang people, Lu Dongzan and the others were still entertained with delicious food and drink. After staying up all night, how could they have a good rest?

Lu Dongzan was worried that his son didn't even drink a sip of water all night, and he looked haggard. Several Tubo officials were very sympathetic. After all, Lu Dongzan's son was not an ordinary person. Potential to become the future Tubo general, his current record is almost undefeated, of course not counting the defeat by the Tang people this time.

Eldawa chatted with the Tang guards at the door, and quickly returned to the camp, saying: "The lower officials have asked them to inform Lord Lan that they are going to continue the negotiation, but they ignored me, it seems This time we were tricked by the people of Tang."

"Don't be so pessimistic, you must know that we brought 20 troops from Tubo, would the Tang people dare to do it easily?" Jianzan Qibu said.

Eldawa continued: "The people of Tang may not attack the Tubo king, but don't forget that we are in a dangerous place, and we are not at the mercy of others."

"Okay, don't talk about this, the most urgent thing is to find a way to continue the negotiation, at least find a way for one of us to go back." Lu Dongzan said.

Everyone knows in their hearts that this is really too difficult.

During breakfast time, the negotiation continued. Yuan Shan did not appear today, and Jiao Junren, governor of Hezhou, was not present. Zhang Wenyi was in charge of the negotiation at this time in Lanzhou. Anyway, he was a topic, talking about the steps and procedures of the Tubo princess marrying into the Tang Dynasty.

The princess's faint ceremony cannot be underestimated, so one day came and went, and several people felt physically and mentally exhausted. The etiquette system of the Tang Dynasty must be followed, and the ceremony of Tubo is also indispensable, so the two sides had a fierce battle. It seems that this has nothing to do with marrying a princess or not, the key is to pay attention to ostentation, interests and many other trivial matters.

After talking for a day, Lu Dongzan knew a lot about Datang's wedding arrangements, and it also took them a day.

Chapter 816 Let Them Go Away

"Okay, don't talk anymore, let's wait patiently now, even if the people of Tang have any tricks, we have nothing to do now." Lu Dongzan said.

Eldawa and Kagyen Tsanqibu were not talking, they were just anxious, with some fear.

The negotiations did not get to the point. The king of Tubo has not agreed to marry the princess to the Tang Dynasty, but they have already determined this matter in the subjective consciousness of the Tang people. Lu Dongzan is a little embarrassed. He was the one who agreed to marry the princess. , Now it's like lifting a rock to shoot yourself in the foot, wasn't it just to test the attitude of the Tang people.

Now that it was like this, he was a little bit hard to get off, but Songtsan Gampo trusted him very much, and before he came out, he had promised that he could decide the matter of the Tubo princess, but the premise was to win enough benefits for Tubo.

Tang people used this rhetoric to trap them. After studying the wedding of the two parties for a day, they didn't know what would happen next.

Lu Dongzan didn't know that this was a strategy of the Tang people to slow down the army.

In the camp, the Tubo envoys started to discuss things as soon as they got up in the morning, and finally they had to listen to Lu Dongzan.

"Message from Tubo, breakfast is ready, please go to the main camp to have dinner." The visitor knew.

"Let's go, let's see what the Tang people are going to do today." Lu Dongzan said.

After the Tubo envoy had breakfast, Yuan Shan and others came over.

"Tuban envoy, I'm really sorry to start work just after breakfast. We've worked hard. We're going to continue yesterday's topic today, but the Duke of the country decided to meet the princess first after thinking about it. Otherwise, we won't feel at ease. If she can learn about the living habits with Her Royal Highness in person, she will definitely be ready when she arrives in Tang Dynasty." Yuan Shan said.

"Meet the princess?" Lu Dongzan was surprised. How would he arrange this? If the princess came, could he go back? But think about it, maybe this is a good way for him to get out.

"The princess is far away in the Tubo city. If this is really the case, then I will tell the Tubo king immediately after I go back, and let our king decide then." Lu Dongzan said.

"Haha, that's great, why don't we send you out of Hezhou now." Yuan Shan said.

"What?" Lu Dongzan was surprised, he released him as soon as he said, isn't he afraid of them leaking information.

Eldawa and Kagyen Tsanqibu became more focused after hearing the translation. They had to calm down and wait to leave from the territory of the Tang people.

"Okay, when we go back, we will tell the Tang people how they treat the princess, and I will leave now." Lu Dongzan said, and the Tubo regiment left Hezhou under the escort of a group of Tang soldiers.

"Duke Lan, do you just let them go?" Li Jing asked.

"Otherwise, can you keep them forever?" Yuan Shan said.

"At least two more days of delay." Li Jing said.

Yuan Shan shook his head, and said: "You can't say that, the King of Tubo will definitely know that we want to procrastinate for two more days, and then there will be no chance for the army to overwhelm the border. Letting them go now is to send them a signal. The Tang people are not afraid of them at all, didn’t they say that the king of Tubo is not brave enough, don’t worry, Lu Dongzan will help us.”

"Has he agreed to help the Tang people?" Li Jing asked curiously.

Yuan Shan shook his head again and said: "He didn't agree to anything, but Qin Zan is in our hands, he must take care of his son."

"Just because of that Tubo boy, can Lu Dongzan really be moved?" Li Jing doubted.

Yuan Shan smiled and said nothing, he was able to express that Li Jing praised that kid as the most powerful general in Tubo in the future, and after Songzan burped, the two fathers and sons were actually in power in Tubo, not so powerful Lu Dongzan would let his son do it General?

The gate of Hezhou city was wide open, Lu Dongzan and others saw the Tubo cavalry who had been waiting for them for a long time, and they felt relieved, but the soldiers escorted by the Tang people did not move much, and they did not follow after sending people out of Hezhou.

Lu Dongzan and others returned to the Tubo cavalry camp. It felt like a dream. Lu Dongzan was very calm, but his heart was very complicated. On one side was the Tubo king and on the other was his son Qinzan. It was difficult to choose between the two.

But those who should be sacrificed naturally cannot live. Before leaving, he turned his head and glanced at the direction of Hezhou City. His son was imprisoned there. How to save him needs careful thinking.

It was dusk when we returned to Tubo camp.

"Lu Dongzan, you are back, but let me worry about it, tell me what the Tang people have said." Songtsan Gampo said.

"Your Majesty, the [-] cavalrymen we went south were wiped out by the Tang people, and Qin Zan was also captured." Lu Dongzan said directly.

"What, [-] elite cavalry have been wiped out. How is that possible? Could it be that the Tang people in the south have several times more elite soldiers?" Songtsan Gampo said angrily. Elimination of this loss is too great.

Most of the 20 soldiers and horses now belong to the joint form, and the [-] elite soldiers led by Qin Zan are his own soldiers and horses. Now an invincible army and horses are defeated, and the whole army will be wiped out.

"How could they have such strength? Could it be that they deceived us?" Songtsan Gampo doubted.

Lu Dongzan knew that the Tubo king he served was still difficult to accept, but that was the truth. He also thought that the cunning of the Tang Dynasty was based on deception, but his son was the most powerful proof.

In the end, Songtsan Gampo believed Lu Dongzan's words and lost [-] elite cavalry. Doesn't it mean that he provided the Tang people with thousands of horses, and the other party was able to strengthen their cavalry.

"By the way, I heard that you drank too much in the camp of the Tang people, is there such a thing?" Songtsan Gampo asked.
