Crown Tang emperor

However, Zanpo's anxious mood clearly couldn't understand this enthusiasm carefully, but she just felt noisy, and repeatedly expressed the hope that she could have a quiet environment to talk with Guo Yuanzhen.

Seeing that Grandma Zan was already anxious, Guo Yuanzhen waved his hand to push back those people who were showing off.As soon as the idlers left, Zan Po took a step forward, looked straight at Guo Yuanzhen and said in a deep voice: "A few days ago, the two parties made an appointment, and the Haixi side will fully implement it. There is no violation of the agreement. But why did Tang Guo suddenly violate the previous agreement? Use soldiers in Qinghai?"

Faced with Zan Po's question, Guo Yuanzhen pretended to be puzzled, and frowned, "Why did you say that, General? The exchange of things between the two parties is an imperial court decision, and everyone who works in Longbian will implement it sincerely. Don't dare to slack off. The general suddenly made such accusations, and Guo really doesn't know why!"

When Po Zan heard Guo Yuanzhen's answer, she couldn't help being anxious again, and said angrily, "Mr. Guo Fu, why bother to ask questions knowingly? The sages in the imperial court suddenly issued orders to attack Qinghai..."

"If the general is taking responsibility for this, please forgive Guo for not being able to deal with it. Although the two parties have made a previous agreement, they have nothing to do with Qinghai. There is no way for Guo to discuss and comment on this plan. .”

Seeing that Po Zan had lost her composure, Guo Yuanzhen also stood up from the table, and continued to meet Po Po Zan's angry eyes, "The general is also a wise man in the world, and he knows that the two things should not be confused. Zanpu, the Fan Kingdom, will fight without announcing it." Is it tolerable or unbearable for our country and our people to rob Xikang? What's more, Qinghai was originally a fence owned by our Tang Dynasty, and it was stolen by a fierce enemy who repeatedly provoked our country. Respond with a severe blow and dispel the thieves!"

"But, but today's Qinghai...Qinghai is now owned by my family, and there is no mutual attack with Datang..."

Hearing Guo Yuanzhen's answer like this, Zan Po's face became less angry, and turned into a bit of pleading.

Guo Yuanzhen laughed when he heard this, waved his hands and said: "General, why should you say such absurd words? I will punish the evil thieves, humiliate the enemy, send back the old master of Qinghai, and spread the grace of the Tang family. Apart from this, there is nothing to think about. If the generals can feel the old righteousness, they can not hurt each other. But if they still You regard yourself as a foreign official, and regard our Tang Jiaxiong army as your enemy, and only fight!"

"So, the Tang family will never allow me to lead Qinghai again?"

When Zan Po heard this, her face turned livid.

"Where Qinghai belongs, my Tang family has its own line of vassals. In the past, whether it was war or peace, it was discussed with the Fan country. The general came here because of this. I don't know what order it is for?"

When Guo Yuanzhen mentioned this point, he had already expressed his meaning very clearly. The ownership of Qinghai and the wars surrounding it were related, which required negotiations between Tubo and Tang envoys. As for the Gar family, they did not have such qualifications.

Zan Po saw that Guo Yuanzhen was using an official tone, but did not directly respond to the core question, so her mood was naturally worse.

After being silent for a while, he raised his head again, and said in a solemn tone: "The disputes in Qinghai, the rift in the country, and the situation, the Guo family must be well aware of the situation. Today, my family is no longer tolerated in the country, and Qinghai is already gone. It is the only place to survive. The family is full of young and old, and they are not considered strong, but they still have the power to fight. Although Zanpu wants to win this title, he will never stand still! , for the sake of making a living, my family will never accept it!"

Seeing that Guo Yuanzhen was still waiting to speak, he hastily opened his mouth and continued: "The Tang family is rich all over the world, and they own a rich land. Although Qinghai is vast, it is remote and barren. What must be obtained is only related to the side plan. The old man is the old master of this side, and his virtue is weak, so he was betrayed by his countrymen, and he could not keep this business for a long time. He fled to Tang in a hurry and begged for mercy. If things can’t be done calmly, what is the so-called death by God’s will, so why bother to force it back?”

"The majestic lord of the sages of the Tang Dynasty came here now to control the powerful troops. My family is really powerless, but in order to guard this square inch of health-preserving land, we can only fight with all our strength. But even if the old lord of Qinghai comes here again, the human affairs They are all strangers, and they may not be able to win the position. In the old days, they could no longer defend themselves, and now they can only rely on the strength of the Tang family. It is really difficult to fill in the details."

"Although my family was born in a foreign country, the ruler of the country is not tolerated because of his great achievements, and the officials with strong eyes are giant bandits. If our family wants to survive, we must choose another place to live. This is the consensus of all the members of the family. The father and son have ruled Qinghai so far. Although it is difficult to match the Tang family's Tianwei with small skills, if Qinghai's old master wants to repeat himself, he can be destroyed in one battle. Qinghai to the Tang family is nothing more than a place where the minions are placed, and it is definitely not a place that must be defended. But the Tang family has one The paper seals the fate, my family will keep this favor forever, and never allow the barbarians to step in, this is not only the loyalty of repaying the favor, but also the necessity of survival!"

When Zan Po spoke up to this point, her expression became extremely sincere, and she even bowed to Guo Yuanzhen, and said in a trembling voice: "The government officials, the Li border officers, must have a clearer balance than Zan Po's foolish opinion. In this situation in Qinghai, a piece of paper orders It can be called back. It is really not a waste of time for the sage to personally declare his prestige in the army. I implore the lord to repeat this statement above. If this situation can be achieved, the lord can praise the court internally and bestow grace on the sea outside..."

Seeing how humble Zan Po's posture was, Guo Yuanzhen hurriedly turned sideways to avoid it, and bent forward from one side to help Zan Po up, and at the same time sighed regretfully: "The general has this sense of righteousness, and since Guo Hearing this, I am also very happy and gratified. It's a pity, a pity, if before this, Guo will not miss this great achievement no matter what, and must try his best to facilitate this! But now, how can the imperial court's plan be changed from day to day? Even if I am greedy for merit, I would not dare to engage in separation and reunion tricks at such a time to disturb the morale of the army!"

"Could it be, is there really no room for change?"

Hearing Guo Yuanzhen's answer, Zanpo looked disappointed and unwilling again.

Guo Yuanzhen shook his head after hearing the words: "The three armies are about to move, and the order is like a mountain. Even if there is still a turning point in the matter, it is by no means a mere frontier minister who dares to make admonishment. We often meet each other. The general and I are not on official business. It can be regarded as quite a personal relationship, and I hope to be a minister in the same palace. But now that the army has already marched, if I go into this plan again, even if the saint does not punish me, the hundreds of thousands of soldiers who are thirsty for merit will not spare me!"

When Zan Po heard this, she was completely resigned, and her lost expression revealed a bit of determination: "Since this is the case, I will no longer force others to be difficult. As Mr. Guo Fu said, although the standing is biased, the friendship Everyone has their own hearts. If things cannot be accomplished today, seeing you tomorrow is a life-and-death enmity. I implore the Lord of the Guo Mansion to give you a jar of fine wine, drink to say goodbye, and then fight for your life!"

When Guo Yuanzhen heard this, he raised his hand and ordered the officials to bring good food and wine, and poured the wine for Grandma Zam himself. Seeing that Grandma Zann took up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp, he frowned again, with a thoughtful look on his face. Thinkingly said: "Guo still has a doubt in his heart, who will offer the words, if Qinghai does not keep it, then the noble sect will not survive?"

After hearing this, Zan Po was stunned for a moment, and then she said: "Now that things have come to an end, why does the lord have to make fun of me! Since my father, the family's willpower has been devoted to Qinghai, and now there is no room for it in the country. Even though the world is vast, where else can I live?"

While talking, Grandma Zan raised her hand, wanting to fill up the wine again, but was stopped by Guo Yuanzhen raising her hand.

"It was the general's words that made me even more confused. When it comes to the management of the past generations, how can the noble family surpass the Tuyuhun royal family? Hundreds of years of royal inheritance, there have been repeated rises and falls, and the national line has been interrupted several times. It’s about to come back. The threat of Tuyuhun’s subjugation is not enough to destroy his clan. Although your clan has paid the wrong labor for 30 years, why do you insist on sticking to this vain career and ruin your own life?”

Guo Yuanzhen stared at Zan Po and said seriously.

After hearing this, Zan Po's shoulders trembled abruptly, and then she hurriedly said: "Mayor Fu, can you make another clear statement?"

"The general is a shrewd and sophisticated person. Why do you need to ask others to choose between pros and cons? Human affairs are difficult and treacherous, and it is not limited to Qinghai? The Murong family can abandon the national property in order to survive, and Zanpu, the fan country, wants to cut off the Zhu country. The sect seeks to be the only one, so why does Qinghai have to be the prison of the noble clan’s life and the tomb of his death?”

Guo Yuanzhen saw that Zanpo's thoughts had been aroused, so he said earnestly: "The reason why my emperor led all the people to the west is that the foreign country invaded Xikang. I really don't want to punish you as a family, otherwise why bother beforehand?" A lot of funding? This battle has to be fought for my Tang Dynasty and Yufan Kingdom, and it is definitely not a one-family obedience. But what is the benefit and harm of this war, so that Have to fight?"

Zan Po was still a bit hesitant just now, but after hearing Guo Yuanzhen's question, she fell silent and did not speak for a long time.

However, Guo Yuanzhen's bewitching words continued: "The land is narrow, the lord is unkind, the seal of an inch of land is stingy, and it is difficult for people who have made great achievements. But my Tang Dynasty has great kindness and power, and it will not tolerate anything. Today, the lord of Qinghai will come again. Receive new grace. Moreover, the saint's expedition to the west, there are many people wearing armor to help in the battle, and they will be rewarded for their merits, and they will surely convince them with justice..."

When Guo Yuanzhen said this, Grandma Zan still didn't say a word, and she showed obvious disgust on her face, obviously a little annoyed by Guo Yuanzhen's nagging.

He even stood up and walked out of the door. After walking a few steps, he realized that this act was a bit impolite, so he turned back and saluted Guo Yuanzhen: "My heart is in such a mess, I can't think about it anymore. I need to return to Haixi quickly. Lord Guo Fu, please forgive me."

After Guo Yuanzhen heard the words, he didn't force him to stay. When he sent off Zan Po and his party, he even thoughtfully arranged for them to have a healthy horse with strong legs, so that it would be more convenient for them to return home.

And after Zan Po and her party left, the official who was in charge of receiving Zan Po's entourage just stepped forward and handed over a sealed letter.After Guo Yuanzhen returned to the room, he scratched open the envelope with wax paint, and smiled when he saw the contents of the letter: "Zanpo came to Haidong a few days late, and there must be a strange omen in Haixi. It turned out that Qinling was assassinated by her clan. , it seems that my Tang family's diet is still confusing people. Such good news, of course we must report to the saint as soon as possible!"

Chapter 0933 half-life achievements, extremely Qinghai

After leaving Haidong, Zan Po and his party traveled day and night, changing horses and galloping, and returning to Haixi all the way.

Although the new year has passed for some time now, the climate in Qinghai is still extremely cold.

The situation in previous years is very unsuitable for long-distance trekking. Not to mention whether you will encounter extreme weather such as blizzards, there is no supplement at all in the boundless wilderness. Even if people can survive, horses may not.In such a climate, once the horse's horsepower has problems, it will be tantamount to death. It is absolutely impossible to cross the vast wilderness and reach the destination with human power alone.

But since the second half of last year, the communication network between Datang and Haixi began to be built.Especially after winter came and Qinghai was frozen, the personnel exchanges between the two sides were completely transferred to land exchanges, so the logistics and traffic conditions on the Dafeichuan line to the south of Qinghai have been greatly improved.

Just a few months is not enough to fundamentally change the basic landscape conditions such as mountains, rivers and roads, but the supply situation along the way has been greatly improved.

In previous years, Haixi and Datang had always maintained a hostile state. In the late autumn and cold winter, the two sides were forced to shrink their defenses due to the pressure of supplies, and a large number of no-man's land appeared in it.Even some weak Tuqiang tribes who were separated from the forces of both sides avoided this area far away. In addition to limited supplies, it was also because of the occasional scouts from both sides to raid the wild.

However, in the past few months, there were few military conflicts between the two sides, but the teams transporting supplies kept coming and going.Some abandoned post facilities along the way have been rested and put into use, and at the same time, many tribal herdsmen have been attracted to the road along the route.

Of course, these people are not qualified to participate in the business exchanges between Datang and Haixi, but they can get some rewards by providing drinking water, food, and labor, which greatly improves their chances of survival in this severe winter.

Datang and Haixi also welcome this kind of herdsmen who come here spontaneously. The existence of these people can greatly relieve their respective logistics pressure.As for which side these people belonged to, the two sides put aside the dispute for the time being, so as not to destroy the peace due to such trivial matters.

But in fact, Zanpo knew in her heart that even if the two sides did not reach a conclusion on this, if Datang and Haixi fought, most of these people would definitely choose to join Datang.What affects people's will is not loyalty, but that no matter how you look at it, belonging to the Tang Dynasty will undoubtedly have a greater chance of surviving.

Right now, the Tang court has announced that it will conquer Qinghai from the west, but the channels for these herdsmen to know the news are really limited, and they are still at a loss to realize that in the near future, there will be another bloody storm in this land.

On the way home, the herdsmen gathered in some strongholds along the way are still enthusiastically providing simple and meager supplies for Zampo and his party.

In the past, Zanpo was full of choices about the general situation, and she would not pay too much attention to these dust-like miscellaneous fish, but now she knows that the future situation in Qinghai is difficult to be controlled by their Gar family, and she treats these people a little more focus on.

In a stronghold surrounded by broken walls, the simple shacks can only shelter a little from the wind and sand, but there are still many residents inside and outside, as many as hundreds of people.These people collect ice and snow, hay and firewood in the wild, and provide shelter and food for travelers coming and going.

Although the stronghold looks extremely crude, it is the only place within a radius of more than 200 miles that can be replenished.In addition to the travelers who come and go here to rest, even the nearby Tang army garrison will occasionally come here to replenish some supplies.

Zanpo's party was strong and the equipment they carried was exquisite and intimidating. Even though they didn't identify their identities, when they arrived outside the stronghold, they were warmly received.

A group of people got off their horses, and the herdsmen in their own stronghold led the horses away to feed them. At the same time, the stronghold was also busy lighting a fire and starting a stove, preparing hot meals for the people.

Sitting in the yurt, Zan Po saw an old barbarian lamely bringing up an earthenware urn containing food. She changed her mind and asked with a smile, "It's not easy to make a living in the wild, right?"

The old Hu man was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then lowered his head timidly. It was not until Zanpo's entourage asked again, that he raised his head boldly, with a humble smile on his face, and tremblingly replied: " Haixi's big talk is kind, and he will no longer fight with the Tang people, so that we untouchables can live along the trade roads. If it were in the past, old and useless goods like old slaves would have been driven to the wilderness by young men to die..."

Although the old Hu people are cowardly, they have accumulated some knowledge while earning a living in this trade route, and they can roughly identify which side Zanpo and his party belong to, so they open their mouths to express their gratitude to Haixi's Dalun Qinling.

But although his words were praising Qinling, it was not pleasant to Zampo's ears.It's only because what this old Hu is grateful for is not that the Gar family prospered and governed well, but that the Gar family no longer fought against the Tang Dynasty, so he gave them a chance to survive.

Therefore, after hearing the old Hu man's answer, Zanpo's mood became even worse, she waved her hand to push him away, and then began to eat with the meal that was just served.In such an environment, the food is naturally not good. It is nothing more than some dried meat and vegetables stewed together with miscellaneous grains. Although the taste is not good, it is better than steaming.

After the meal, the group rested for a while, and when the horsepower recovered, they were ready to continue on the road.But just as they were about to leave, another caravan from the Tang people arrived here.

This time, the scene of going out to greet them in the stronghold was even bigger, and someone in the stronghold even pulled out two sheep for slaughter.

Seeing this scene, Zanpo's followers were naturally upset, and one of them couldn't help cursing: "These thieves and slaves are really cunning! They just offered food, but they only said that there was no fresh blood to eat, so they kept it in hiding to flatter the Tang people! "

While talking, several attendants drew out their knives, wanting to teach the lowly beards in this stronghold a lesson, let them know who is the real master of Qinghai, but they were stopped by Grandma Zam.

"These bastards are ignorant, so there is nothing to argue with them. It's better to get on the road and return to Haixi as soon as possible."

Zampo said in her mouth, and also noticed that after the Tang Dynasty caravan that had just arrived along the way found them, the guards had already drawn out their swords vigilantly, and the number of goods they carried was also limited. Obviously, they knew about the imperial court. Movement, urgently withdraw to the territory of Tang State.

Traveling all the way, Zan Po and his party finally returned to Fucheng City in Haixi a few days later.

Today's Fucheng City, on the surface, looks the same as before. Outside the city, there are still people living together and living in a large number of people.As for the layout of the city, it is slightly different from previous years.

The two squares located in the southeast corner of the city are indistinctly self-contained and do not mix with the side.Most of the people living in these two squares are merchants from the Tang Dynasty who came to Haixi in the past six months, so they are also called Tangrenfang.

Haixi also arranged some armored soldiers to protect Tangrenfang. Besides the armored soldiers, there are also a large number of local people gathered outside the two squares, either hoping to directly trade with the Tang people, or hoping to sell themselves as slaves.

In order to stabilize the situation in Haixi, the Gar family blocked the news that the Tang Dynasty would send troops to Qinghai. Therefore, so far, the surrounding area of ​​Tangrenfang is still the most prosperous place in the city, and has not been affected by the atmosphere of war.

However, inside and outside the palace of Fucheng City, the guards have been strengthened unprecedentedly. From the outer wall to the inner residence, it can be said that there are many armored soldiers and strict defenses everywhere.Even Po Zan, who returned to the city, had to give a notice first, and could not enter the mansion until the mansion handed over the handwritten warrant of Dalun Qinling.

Qin Ling was assassinated, this matter is also top secret in Haixi, and few people know about it.Even some direct descendants of the Gar family didn't know that their patriarch had just walked through the gate of hell.

The reason why the news was so tightly blocked was not only that the Qinling brothers did an excellent job of keeping secrets, but also because the scene of the assassination and the assassin was unusual.

Qin Ling was assassinated in his dormitory, but the assassin was not some spies from outside, but a close family member of the Gar family, a clan that Qin Ling valued quite a lot.

It is precisely because the other party is a family member that I admire quite a lot, and I never thought that the other party would have murderous intentions against me, so Qin Ling did not set up defenses. He grabbed the meat-removing knife from the case and stabbed it directly into Qinling's belly.

Although the meat cutting knife was sharp but not long, the injury was not too serious.But the shock that this incident brought to him far exceeded the physical damage.

In the past years, it is not that the Gar family did not have internal strife, and even Qinling's elder brother, Zan Xiruo, died in the trap set by the clan.However, after the bloody cleansing of Qinling, some dissident clansmen were basically wiped out, and the remaining Gar family members have been in Qinling for more than ten years, and have maintained a very high cohesion.

Especially last year when Zanpu was forcefully forced to retreat by Qinling, the entire Gar family believed that as long as Dalun Qinling was there, there would be no power in the world that could endanger the existence of the Gar family.

But only a few months later, such a bad thing happened.After the family member was arrested on the spot after the attempted assassination, he was still yelling during the interrogation: "The country will not allow it, the Tang people come to attack, if you don't die, my family will eventually perish..."

A series of torture and interrogation failed to find out whether the assassin was instigated by others, and the son even took advantage of the laxity of the guards to directly declare his will with death.

After the assassination incident, although the news was blocked, it did not cause a worse impact.However, there is no way to investigate how many clansmen secretly have similar thoughts.

The assassination of Qinling can be concealed for the time being, but the news that Datang will conquer Qinghai from the west cannot be concealed.So when Qinling's injury initially stabilized, Zan Po immediately went to Haidong, and proposed to join the Tang Dynasty and replace the Qinghai king's lineage to accept the rule of the Tang Dynasty.

"How's brother's injury?"

After entering the inner room, Po Zan looked at Qin Ling and asked with concern.

Qin Ling's face was a little pale, but he was still in good spirits. He signaled the messenger to use a soft quilt to cover his back, then sat up reluctantly from the couch, waved his hands and said, "Small skin wounds are not enough to endanger life. Tell me about the effect of your trip?"

Seeing that Qinling's body was fine, Zan Po was relieved, but after hearing this question, her face was slightly sad: "The sage of the Tang Dynasty has already traveled westward, and will soon enter Long. Attached, it is no longer enough to make it change the levy..."

Qinling nodded slightly after hearing the words, and there was no disappointment on his face, he just sighed and said: "It's only natural, the sage in Tang Kingdom dared to use Qinghai to win the game with me before he gained power. With great power and arrogance, how can you be patient and seek perfection?"

Although the tone was a little low, Qinling's expression was not too depressed, he just continued: "The forces in the world have their own ups and downs, but the Tang family is blessed by heaven, which is enviable. The same stupid Shannan Compared with my children, the sage of the Tang Dynasty is the choice of the master who can truly flourish the ancestral business. In the past years, Haidong and Haixi had clear barriers, and the defense was deep. Greedy for short-term benefits, tearing down the high walls by yourself, and then fighting with the Tang State, it is inevitable that good or bad will be uncertain..."

When Zan Po heard this, her face was also full of shame and heaviness.The communication with the Tang State was facilitated by him, and he thought he could supplement and restore his own power through this. Although it did have certain effects, it was his who brought about the greatest change in people's hearts. Unexpected.

In the old year of maintaining hostility with Datang, although the situation in Haixi was deteriorating and the subordinates complained a lot, at least their Gar family was able to have the same mind and there were no major differences.

But now, it's not just the personnel disturbances from the outside, but even deep cracks have appeared inside their Gar family.Not only the clansmen believed that the existence of Qinling threatened the survival of the Gar family, but even the three brothers who were their direct relatives had disagreements.

This time when Zanpo went to Haidong, she encountered strong opposition from their fifth younger brother, Bo Lun Zanren. Bo Lun Zanren always believed that Datang had no good intentions towards the Gar family. It may be that Tang Guo planned to divorce.

But Zanpo felt that even if Datang remained hostile to the Gar family, it was normal.However, the material assistance provided by Datang to the Gar family in the past was real. It is obvious that Datang needed the existence of the Gar family to curb the outward extension of Tubo forces.Therefore, as long as the Gar family chooses to take refuge in Datang, Datang does not necessarily need to get rid of the Gar family.

However, this trip to Haidong and the conversation with Guo Yuanzhen made Zanpo realize that Datang never thought of letting the Gar family stay in Qinghai from the beginning to the end. In addition to letting the Gar family continue to fight against Tubo, it is also disintegrating the Gar family's stubborn resistance to the Tang Dynasty.

Putting aside some distracting thoughts in her mind, Po Zan truthfully relayed the exchange with Guo Yuanzhen to her elder brother.After Qin Ling finished listening, he stared at Zampo and said in a deep voice, "Then what do you think?"

"Guo's cunning words have been verified before, and his words are not completely credible, but they are not all false."

Zan Po also weighed for a long time along the way, and now she said: "My father and son have ruled Qinghai for decades, but they are still powerful and virtuous. The people here don't feel that they have been ruled for decades, but are happy In this short half a year of Zhige's virtue. How can we rely on such a human relationship? If he really raises troops to reject the Tang Dynasty, he may collapse without a fight.

What's more, the law of the Tang Dynasty is indeed grand, and my family is by no means a weak and incompetent family. If we really vote for Tang, even if we don't live in Qinghai, I think it will be possible to show off our ambitions... My father's ancestors once voted for Shannan, and they lived in a prominent family for decades. The sound has been exhausted, and now entering the Tang Dynasty, the brothers continue to work hard, and they will certainly not be lost in the vulgar, and die in silence.It is indeed a pity to have the shade of the ancestors, but if the true power cannot be guarded, it is better to create a new life elsewhere, and not be a dog guarding the household and waiting to die..."

After Qinling heard this, he was silent for a moment, then raised his head and smiled wryly, "Not long after you left the city eastward, Fifth Brother also left for Xikang..."

"This, this, fifth brother, how dare he...Even if we are discussing with the middle school to fight against the Tang army, Zanpu will definitely not allow you to take power again!"

After Zan Po heard the words, she suddenly said with a look of shock and anger.

"Zanpu can't tolerate me, will the saints of Tang Kingdom allow me to survive?"

When Qin Ling spoke up to this point, his expression was disappointed but also faintly proud: "Although your brother is a hated guest in the world, how many people in the world can be hated by the British lords of these two countries? How about the future? I already have a choice Half of my life's work, Qinghai is magnificent, beyond the water and soil here, even if there is a prosperous place in the world, it is not the hometown of my bones!"

"Brother, you want to..."

Zan Po was about to ask questions, but Qin Ling waved his hands and said wearily, "It's hard work to go back and forth, you should get back to rest and recharge your spirits, and my family will have a strong voice in Qinghai in the future!"

Chapter 0934 Deyou Nongben, the blessing of the country

At the beginning of March, the imperial conquest army entered Longyou, and Jincheng in Lanzhou was used as the place where the saint was stationed. As the saint arrived in Jincheng, all civil and military officials from Longbian also gathered here to welcome the saint.

Jincheng is the largest business center in Longyou, especially in the past few years, its prosperity has been greatly improved.Compared with when Li Tong went to Longzhou in the early years, the size of the city has more than doubled. The south of the city is a huge market, and its bustling level is not even inferior to that of Chang'an. far beyond the interior.

In order to avoid the waste of local figures, Li Tong specially ordered on the eve of his departure from Beijing that he would go to Longwu to conquer, and the holy car would not need to enter the city to settle down, and there would be no need for large-scale construction and construction of the palace.

Even so, the officials from Lanzhou and Longyou did not dare to neglect Shengjia and receive them normally.During the more than a month that Shengjia was on the road, Longbian officials, together with all the powerful chiefs, made intensive preparations for welcoming him.Although he did not dare to disobey the will of the saints and waste money and people to build pavilions and palaces, he also expressed this respect in other ways.

Since the saints said that they did not need to enter the city to settle down before recovering Qinghai, they built a large-scale camp in the countryside near Jincheng.The core and most eye-catching thing in this camp is a large tent for saints to live in and handle military and political affairs.

This large tent is several feet high, and the tent itself is made of high-quality leather felt and brocade materials, covering an area of ​​several miles.On the outside of the tent, various patterns of sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers and mountains are mosaiced and painted with various pearls, jades and gemstones.No matter day or night, looking around, this big tent is shrouded in a ball of precious light, like a fairy mountain cave that has fallen into the mortal world.

In order to build such a large tent that can match and demonstrate the majesty of the saint, the officials of Longbian and the chieftains of various tribes also worked together. The local officials were responsible for mobilizing skilled craftsmen and designing the form, while the chieftains of various tribes were responsible for donating materials and labor. In particular, states such as the Stone Kingdom and Kang Kingdom in the Western Regions, which are not known for their force, bear most of the material consumption.

Needless to say, there were many complicated etiquettes when welcoming the driver, and soon all the members of Longbian followed the holy driver to the big camp outside the city.After entering the camp, everyone's eyes were quickly attracted by the huge and luxurious tent standing in the center of the camp.Rao people in Chang'an have seen so many prosperous scenery, seeing such a luxurious tent, they couldn't help being amazed for a while.

Hearing the sighs of Chang'an's entourage, Longbian officials and all the powerful chieftains also breathed a sigh of relief, thankful that this time they were not rude in welcoming them.

In the center of the camp, when Li Tong stepped down from the chariot, his eyes only lingered briefly on this gorgeous tent, and he quickly retracted it, and then looked around, without any obvious expression changes on his face.
