Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Wu Lude was guilty of a guilty conscience, he was really terrified, cold sweat broke out on his forehead in anxiety, and cold sweat rolled down his cheeks in big beads.

Guo Ye sat without saying a word, staring at Mei Lu De Nai with a kind of insightful eyes, and sneered in his heart, Ba Zi, are you afraid sometimes?It seems that this grandson really fell apart with Yu Wenqian.

After a moment of panic, Mulu Denai raised his head slowly to look at Guo Ye, and asked guiltily, "Guo...Guo Shangshu, you...how do you know this woman Yu Wenqian?"

Naturally, Guo Ye would not tell Wu Lu De about his relationship with Yu Wenqian and Dongchang. He had already thought of an excuse, shrugged his shoulders, and said with a light smile: "Master Wu Lu, if you want people to know, Unless you don’t do it yourself. Do you really think that our Tang court’s eyes and ears are so closed? If it is so closed, how could His Majesty receive the news so early in Chang’an about the secret news of Zanpu’s death in your country, and tell him How about sending Guo to come to offer condolences?"

Wu Lude was horrified, and asked tentatively: "Huh? Could it be that your Tang Kingdom has hidden stakes in some of our cities?"

Guo Ye put up his index finger pretentiously, gestured left and right a few times, and then said with a mysterious smile: "The Buddha said, you can't say it, you can't say it..."

Wu Lude saw Guo Ye pretending to be so aggressive, but he didn't take it to heart.On the contrary, he was exposed by Guo Ye, and his old face suddenly felt ashamed and ashamed, remembering how he shouted loyalty in front of Guo Ye just now, flaunting how loyal he was to the country, no Lu De really wished there was a crack on the ground Get in to hide your ugliness.

Guo Ye saw Wu Lu De Nai's uneasiness, couldn't help smiling, and said: "Okay, there is no need to be so cautious, Mr. Wu Lu, we people don't talk dark words, why are you looking for me this time? thing?"

In one sentence, the last layer of window paper between the two of them was pierced, and the last fig leaf for Lu Denai was removed.

Immediately, Wu Lude let go of his reserve, and said slowly in a deliberative tone: "Guo Shangshu, to tell the truth, this time I also left Luoxi City secretly, in order to have a good relationship with you before you enter Luoxi City. You meet up. Because I want to ask Datang for help through you?"

Guo Ye's eyelids twitched slightly, and he asked, "Don't be surrounded by clouds and mists, please describe it in detail."

Wu Lu De Nai let out a sigh, sighed heavily, and said: "Alas... As you expected, I am really at odds with that ambitious woman Yu Wenqian. She once promised me that we will Together to get rid of the national teacher Jiumozhi, and then control the power of the Tubo government, then after Songtsan Gampo Tsampo dies, she will work together with me to support Lord Gongsong to ascend to the position of Zanpu. Gongsong The prince has no ambitions and is only obsessed with female sex all day long. He is indeed the most ideal puppet Zanpu. In the words of your Han people, the prince Gongsong is a dou who cannot be supported. It is a pity..."

Guo Ye listened to the ins and outs of the matter, and immediately understood the follow-up development of the matter, and said, "Unfortunately, that woman Yu Wenqian has her own plans in secret. You didn't expect her to change her mind after the incident and plan to support Song Tsangan." Bu's widow, Queen Yunrong, ascended to the position of Zanpu and commanded the Tubo Kingdom, right?"

Wu Lu De Nai nodded, and said: "That's right, that's exactly it! She turned her back on her promises and tried to support Queen Yunrong to take the throne. But where in the world is there a woman who ascends to the throne and governs the world? This, this is not Ji Si Chen, are you just making jokes for the neighbors? I can see the thoughts of this woman, Yu Wenqian. Queen Yunrong obeys her, and she just wants to wait for Queen Yunrong to ascend the throne, and she will listen to the government behind the scenes and occupy the Tubo kingdom all by herself. Hehe , I didn't expect Lu De to be toyed with by a woman in applause, alas, how ridiculous!"

Wu Lu De Nai was smiling wryly, but Guo Ye secretly sneered after listening to it, he sneered at Wu Lu De Nai who hides his ambition but is as stupid as a pig, do you really think Yu Wenqian is so easy to get along with?Cooperating with her is like seeking skin from a tiger.You are not Lu De, you are not the first person to be fooled by her, and you are not the only one who has been fooled by her.

It's ridiculous that the majestic Tubo prime minister was tricked into applauding by a foreign woman, and when it was time to share the fruits of victory, he was kicked out of the ranks of vested interests.

Thinking of this, even though Guo Ye hated Yu Wenqian so much, he was still very happy. Lu De Nai was asking for bad luck, just one word: Definitely!

However, since Yu Wenqian took Dongchang to Tubo, the few hidden chess players at Dongchang didn't dare to send news to him privately, so now he doesn't know much about Dongchang's strength in Tubo.

Therefore, it is hard for him to imagine how far Yuwenqian and Dongchang have managed in Tubo.Mulude is the Prime Minister of Tubo, and his prestige in the Tubo court is unmatched for a while, and the Mulu family is the most influential and powerful family in Tubo Kingdom besides the royal family.But why was Yu Wenqian forced to jump over the wall and ask Datang for help?

Immediately, he pretended to ask in disbelief: "Major Minister Wulu, it stands to reason that even if Yuwenqian has the support of Queen Yunrong, she is still an outside force; and you and your Wulu family have been operating in Tubo for nearly a hundred years, The government holds the most deep-rooted local power in the Tubo Kingdom. Could it be that you can't beat an outsider like her?"

"Alas... It seems that Guo Shangshu only knows one thing and doesn't know the other!"

Mei Lu De Nai sighed again, and said with some depression: "The current military strength of the Tubo Kingdom is divided into 30 Tubo soldiers and millions of slave soldiers. There are nearly 30 Tubo soldiers in the country, and they are placed in the [-]th Tubo army. In a city. The Tubo soldiers in these cities are in the hands of our Wulu family. But what about the millions of slave soldiers? They are all controlled by this woman, and they are all under her leadership. Just when Zanpu died On the second day, these millions of slave soldiers were transferred from various cities by this woman, and they were all placed in Luoxi City and various fortresses within a hundred miles of Luoxi City."

"No way?"

Guo Ye couldn't believe this, and asked in puzzlement, "Aren't slave soldiers raised by slave owners everywhere? How could they listen to her orders?"

Wulu De Nai said: "Because before the death of Zanpu, this woman sent a decree to all the cities of Tubo in the name of Zanpu, announcing that the world will abolish the slavery of slave owners everywhere from now on, and declares that anyone who is willing All slave soldiers loyal to Queen Yunrong can be removed from their slave status and restored to their status as civilians.

Guo Shangshu, you know that our country in Tubo is divided into royal families, nobles, commoners, and slaves.However, the number of slaves accounted for more than [-]%. Both the royal family and the nobles lived a wealthy life by raising slaves.Now this woman has abolished her slave status, and announced it to the world in the name of Zanpu. Do you think all the slaves in Tubo still obey her?With this alone, she firmly controlled millions of slave soldiers.It's amazing, it's amazing, the Tubo Kingdom is about to change! "

Guo Ye didn't have time to pay attention to Lu Denai's long sighs, because his heart was overwhelmed at this moment, like a small boat swinging in the stormy waves, secretly surprised, can't it?Yu Wenqian is really a stroke of genius. In order to control the military power of Tubo as soon as possible, she even thought of abolishing slavery in Tubo. Nima is going against the sky, this woman.

In Guo Ye's impression, the slavery system in Tubo was deeply ingrained to a perverted level, otherwise, there would not have been the grand occasion when the Communist Party's Liberation Army invaded Tibet and turned millions of serfs into masters.

This was in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, during the Zhenguan period, she unexpectedly made the slavery system in Tubo collapse more than 1000 years in advance.

Whether it was Yu Wenqian's feat of abolishing slavery in order to grasp the military power in Tubo as soon as possible, or to win over people's hearts, Guo Ye subconsciously believed that Yu Wenqian's move was of great merit.

Awesome, this woman is so fucking amazing!

Wu Lude on the opposite side saw Guo Ye shaking his head frequently, and mistakenly thought that the other party felt that his side's chances of winning were not high, and the Tang court was unwilling to come forward, so he hurriedly explained: "Guo Shangshu, please listen to the next sentence, although she has grasped There are millions of slave soldiers in Tubo, but these slave soldiers lack bows, crossbows, arrows, swords and armor, and they are all untrained mobs with very low combat effectiveness. Therefore, as long as Tang is willing to give reinforcements in times of crisis, I believe that I will be able to turn the tide and regain the Tubo regime."

Guo Ye smiled slightly when he heard this, and said happily, the British just mobilized [-] troops in Chang'an to go to Tubo to start a war, so Lu De Nai still wanted to let Tang Dynasty send troops into Tubo, is this God's will?God bless the Tang Empire to swallow the Tubo Kingdom?

Wu Lude saw that Guo Ye just laughed, but didn't say a word, and mistakenly thought that the other party didn't want to help in vain, and didn't want to waste national power and military strength to help him. Will there be a free feast?

So, he hastily raised his right hand and swore with one palm: "Guo Shangshu, don't worry, we will definitely not let the Tang Dynasty send troops to help in vain. I can sign a treaty agreement with you in Golmud City on behalf of Tang and Tibetans. The agreement treaty guarantees that after the Great Tang rushes to aid the Tubo Kingdom and helps us regain power, we will definitely get corresponding compensation from our side."

"Oh?"

Although Guo Ye had another plan in mind at this time, he also became interested in the reward that Wulu De Nai said, and he couldn't help asking curiously: "Master Wulu, hehe, you are too polite. You are very interested in the "Golmud Treaty", let's talk about it!"

Good guy, Guo Ye directly named the first unequal treaty of the Tang Empire with foreign countries. Of course, the Tang Empire, which is in full swing, is not the precarious and precarious Qing Dynasty.

Chapter 932 Arriving in Luoxie City

"The Treaty of Golmud?"

Wu Lu De Nai chewed these five words in his mouth. For some reason, he felt an inexplicable sense of humiliation in his heart, but when he thought of the current situation where he was forced by Yu Wenqian to be tied up and had no power to fight back, how could he? Is there anything more humiliating than this?

Immediately, he was relieved quickly, with a smile on his face and said: "Guo Shangshu got the name that should be called Jinger, so let's call it Golmud City Treaty."

What a fucking shameless, Guo Ye secretly complained, you are the Prime Minister of Tubo, you are so shameless, you can compete with Li Hongzhang.

Immediately, Guo Ye stopped going around in circles and asked directly: "No Lude is the prime minister, if my Tang Dynasty is willing to send troops to help you seize the power of Tubo from Yu Wenqian, and support Lord Gong Song Na Adou to take the throne, what will you do in the Golmud Treaty?" What reward will we have for the Great Tang Empire?"

Meilu De Nai hummed, and talked eloquently: "First, if Lord Gongsong takes the throne of Zanpu, he will always be a minister to the Emperor of Tang Dynasty, that is, Tang Dynasty and Tubo will be the country of father and son forever; second Now that I have become a minister, the Tubo Congress will pay tribute to the Tang court every year, with a total of [-] pieces of silk cloth and millions of guan; Nearly hundreds of miles of land in the Duhufu was ceded to Datang as compensation for the loss of troops sent by the Tang Dynasty. The above three points are for the "Golmud Treaty."

Proclaiming a minister, paying tribute, ceding land, everything in the treaty, Guo Ye's heart was moved for a while.

Grandma, Lu De is really a cub who doesn't feel bad about selling his grandfather's land. He rants for his own self-interest and sells his ancestors' belongings like this. He is really willing to spend the money.

Guo Ye smacked his mouth a few times, and pondered: "Well... Generally speaking, Mr. Guo has no opinion, but this matter is not up to Mr. Guo to decide. You must ask His Majesty the emperor to report this matter. yes."

Seeing that Guo Ye's face was calm under such generous conditions, as if he was still a little reluctant, Wu Lude couldn't help feeling distressed in his heart, and secretly said, are these conditions not satisfactory?

Suddenly, Wu Lu De Nai remembered some rumors about the Marquis of Yizhou in Chang'an, not only thinking about it, but also suddenly added: "Of course, these three treaties are just written terms. A generous gift has been prepared."

As he said that, a lewd smile appeared on his face, and he said in a low voice: "I heard that Guo Shangshu likes to collect beauties, and there are even beauties in Yizhou Hou's mansion. They are so romantic and elegant! As long as Guo Shangshu I am willing to write a letter to His Majesty Tian Khan of your country, and to say a few good words for me. After the matter is completed, I will propose to Lord Gongsong to betroth his own sister, Princess Baga Yuexi, to Guo Shangshu. Princess Baga Yuexi is a flower of our Great Tubo Kingdom, she and Guo Shangshu are really talented and beautiful, and they are perfectly matched."

Like to collect beauties, beauties in Fuchu are like clouds?

Guo Ye's first reaction was to be secretly upset, yes, my buddy likes beautiful women, but it's not so obscene, right?Ciao, which bastard ruined me?

As for the Tubo princess that Wu Lu De Nai was talking about, Guo Ye lost interest as soon as he heard the name, it was Baga again, and Yoxi again, your sister, with such an unlucky name, you little Japan?

If you want beautiful women, don't you have any in Central Plains?What great beauties can there be in the Tubo Kingdom on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau?Thinking of the princess's presumably plateau red cheeks and her nose running in the cold, Guo Ye suddenly lost his appetite.

So, he waved his hands again and again, thanking Bumin and said: "Okay, okay, let's talk about whether the princess is a princess or not. It's not too late to talk about it after the matter is over."

Wu Lu De Nai's expression tightened at first, and then he suddenly said pleasantly: "So, Guo Shangshu, do you agree?"

Guo Ye nodded slightly and said: "I can't decide this matter, our emperor must have the final say. Later, I will write a letter on this matter and send someone back to Chang'an to present to the emperor."

"Okay, okay, by the way, attach this to Guo Shangshu's repair book."

While talking, Meilu De Nai took out a letter from his arms and said: "This is the model of the "Golmud Treaty", which was drafted by me personally. In addition to my autograph, there are also Prince Gong Song’s seal and signature. I think the emperor of your country would not refuse such a generous offer after seeing it. Of course, Guo Shangshu must have a few good words for us in the letter.”
