Take the mall to Datang

Lu Dongzan has no choice but they can't be tough now.

Lu Dongzan has been listening carefully. Negotiations are always back and forth. What will happen in the end needs further discussion. At present, the attitude of His Majesty Tang Dynasty is very clear, and the business of mutual opening will definitely be successful.

Li Shimin seemed impatient, and Lu Dongzan immediately said: "Your Majesty's dowry to the princess in Tubo this time is [-] cattle and sheep each, [-] horses, and [-] guan of goods."

Li Shimin was a little moved. With so many livestock, it seemed that the Tubo people still cared about their princess, so what should they do? Taking the princess into the harem, wouldn't that be exactly what they wanted.

Wouldn't it be a good dowry to give away for nothing if it wasn't included in the harem, and it wouldn't be good if it was given to any of his sons. Although he was a little embarrassed, his face was still calm.

It is installed in Tubo, and it will be delivered after the princess is married. In Li Shimin's heart, the Tubo people are really smart. In this way, the Tubo princess has no choice but to marry him, the emperor. You can choose.

Knowing the son is like the father, can he not understand the intention of the king of Tubo?

"When the princess gets married, I will give you a big gift." Li Shimin said.

What he said meant that Princess Shanjia would not become the imperial concubine, and it might be his princes' turn next.

Lu Dongzan didn't have much to say about this. Anyway, he still has something to say. The matter of the princess is not the most important thing right now. When the time comes, those who can choose will naturally be preferred.

"Okay, let's stop here today. The Minister of Honglu Temple must treat the Tubo envoys well. The guests who come are guests, so we must not break the etiquette." Li Shimin said.

The ministers of Honglu Temple all bowed, which obviously meant to treat these Tubo people better.

After Lu Dongzan got out of the imperial city, people from Honglu Temple came to pick them up, and the minister of Dali Temple said: "The envoy of Lu Dongzan, this is for you from His Majesty."

It is written in Tubo, and the condition for exchanging Qinzan and others is [-] war horses.

Lu Dongzan was furious. It was not that he couldn't take out the [-] horses, but he was in pain. Both ends were cut. He didn't pay attention to Dali Siqing's side, and came sadly.

Dali Siqing felt inexplicable but had to follow.

Qin Zan and others were released that night, and in a blink of an eye they became envoys of the Honglu Temple.

"Father, it's Qinzan's fault." Qinzan was extremely remorseful, but who doesn't want to live.

"It's good to be alive. Our family still needs you. You will be the heir when your father gets old, so don't lose your life easily. There are still a group of people behind you waiting for you to lead." Lu Dongzan said.

"It's father, I will work hard." Qin Zan said.

Seeing that Qin Zan's condition is much better, Lu Dongzan feels that it is worth it even if he feels sorry for the [-] horses.

"Father, when can we return to Tubo?" Qin Zan asked.

"We can go back only when Princess Shanjia gets married." Lu Dongzan said.

"What, Princess Shanjia was sent to Datang, how can it be, father, you know me..." Qin Zan said excitedly.

Lu Dongzan interrupted him, and said: "One moment and another, now it has become a fact. Qinzan's father knows that you have had feelings for each other since childhood, but it is different now. Shanjia and you are destined to be impossible. .” Lu Dongzan said.

He was really bored today, as a high-ranking Tubo minister, he actually dealt with the children's emotional problems, but his choice was all out of self-interest, since the Tubo king decided to marry the princess, it meant that the matter was a foregone conclusion.

He didn't want Qinzan to waste time on these unrealistic things, and continued to persuade: "You are the most talented and capable of the younger generation in Tubo. Your mission is to become the general of Tubo and protect Good Tubo, protect our family well, only one princess is missing now, but if we can’t keep it, Tubo may lose more, you have to understand.”

Qin Zan was silent, clenched his fists fiercely, and said, "Yes, I will remember what my father said."

Since he led the army, he had no defeat except this time, but meeting the Tang people turned out to be his fate.

"Father, the Tang people's new weapons are very powerful. Since we are here to negotiate, I wonder if the Tang people can provide us with these new weapons." Qin Zan said.

"You've finally got the hang of it. In fact, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty hasn't confirmed these things yet, so we can only wait, but I will ask them if I have a chance." Lu Dongzan said.

"Father is still wise." Qin praised.

"The national power of the Tang Dynasty is strong, and we can't afford to provoke it. If the king of Tubo can make the right decision early, as for sacrificing so many warriors, one wrong step is a wrong step. This is what the Tang people would say. From the defeat of Tubo Afterwards, I understood a truth, greed requires strength, and I hope that through Languo Gongshan, we can make up for these losses." Lu Dongzan said.

"What does father mean? I don't understand why. Besides, that Lord Lan is from Tang Dynasty, how could he help us Tubo people?" Qin Zan said puzzled.

"What's the difficulty? You don't understand. In fact, the main purpose of letting Princess Shanjia go to Datang this time is to let her get close to Duke Lan. If they can facilitate their good deeds, we Tubo people will naturally not suffer." Lu Dongzan said.

Qin Zan's expression was not very good. The original plan was not to let the princess marry the prince, but let him marry an official of the Tang Dynasty. If it was in Tubo, it would be fine, but wouldn't it lower the princess's wealth in the Tang Dynasty.

Qin Zan was very unwilling, but he had no choice. He couldn't do anything now, and he could only find ways to facilitate good things.

Chapter 829

"Okay, don't think about it so much. Shanjiagui is a princess but she has her own role. We have to sacrifice something for Tubo." Lu Dongzan said.

Qin Zan nodded in acquiescence.

The envoys of the Tang Dynasty stayed in Chang'an City for half a month. During this half month, Lu Dongzan was negotiating with the people sent by Li Shimin. The matter of friendly neighbors between the two countries is not a trivial matter, and both sides are more cautious.

Then there is the matter of Princess Shanjia. Lu Dongzan proposed that according to Tubo's custom, the Tubo consort can be selected through competition, but his only request is that the Duke of Languo Shan must participate.

"Let that kid Yuanshan participate, these Tubo people really know how to make up their minds." Li Shimin thought, how could such a trick be fooled by him, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

"Message from Tubo, I can't take charge of Duke Lan's affairs. Everyone in Chang'an knows that Yuanshan is a man of deep affection, and he will not easily marry a woman from the country. Besides, the princess of Tubo has a noble status, so it is not proper." Li Shimin said. .

"It doesn't matter, we Tubo don't pay much attention to these things." Lu Dongzan said.

Afterwards, the courtiers of the Tang Dynasty rolled their eyes.

"What a bunch of barbarians."

"It's unreasonable not to follow the etiquette..."

and many more.

Lu Dongzan is going to risk his face now, he just wants to achieve his goal.

After insisting again and again, Li Shimin was helpless. Didn't he make it clear that he wanted Yuan Shan to be the son-in-law of Tubo? He knew that the Tubo people did it on purpose, but he also wanted to know how Yuan Shan would deal with it. In fact, he wanted to see Yuan Shan How to deal with the two good wives in his family, Du Fuwei's daughter has been a female guard, and he is very excited when he thinks about the miserable situation of Yuan Shan, who has no power to restrain the chicken.

"Since the Tubo envoy insisted on Mahe so much, he immediately sent someone to call him back and let the princess of Tubo choose the talents of Tang Dynasty." Li Shimin said.

Ma Hexin said it was nothing, but he still sent someone to notify him.

The people who went to Lanzhou were none other than Qian Niuwei's Du Jue, Mu Qingyuan and others. This time, His Majesty ordered Yuan Shan to appear in Chang'an the day after tomorrow even if he was tied up.

So that night, Yuan Shan disappeared in Lanzhou, and Du Qianyu found out that his husband had disappeared the next day.

When they were looking for someone, Zhang Wenyi said calmly: "Everyone, don't worry, Mr. Lan has urgent matters to go back to Chang'an, I believe he will be back in a few days."

Zhang Wenyi had to say this, if he revealed a little bit, he might be in trouble, after all, he was ordered by His Majesty.

At this time, Lanzhou City was very lively, because Li Jing, the chief supervisor of Xikaidao, was preparing to return to Chang'an. He had achieved the title of chief supervisor, anyway, it was not the first time, and he was used to it.

Recalling what Yuanshan said to him at the time, thinking about it, it is actually good to be a teacher, and he can teach some skills to train more generals for the Tang Dynasty without contending with the world.

This was his idea, and Yuan Shan's plan was to lure him into the group, and then open an ability-enhancing class, which is a temporary training class, to provide valuable strategic ideas for some fighters with combat experience.
