Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

In Li Yan's mind, the third brother is the smartest person in the world, but the smartest person in the world will also fall into the attitude of being a fan of the authorities.

However, Changle and the others did relieve Li Ke of a lot of anxiety and irritability when they found him. He was indeed in a dead end, and he always felt that inheriting the throne was like being tied to death all of a sudden.

After eating a barbecue, Li Ke also figured it out a lot. It is impossible to be tied up to death. The ones who were tied up were Fang Xuanling and the others.

snort?Zhishi, impossible!Let's all be ready to die for Datang.

As for himself, Li Ke has figured it out. It is still the plan. When the arrangements are in place, he will gradually reveal the plan for the constitutional monarchy, and then let them work.

You can remotely control it yourself.

Li Ke thought a lot here, and Chen Xuanzang, who was far away in Yuzhang Port, Tianzhu, also received the order that Xu Zheng told him.

Chen Xuanzang was at a loss for contacting Chang'an in just over a day, but General Xu repeatedly confirmed that there was no problem with this matter, and not only that, but also issued him a customs clearance document with relevant characteristics, And related court clothes and other things.

Chen Xuanzang hesitated for a while, but finally decided not to ask any questions. Since His Majesty knew about it and gave him the position of Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, he will try to persuade Tubo to surrender.

Chen Xuanzang was not overly confident in his own ideas, but he felt that many of the things he had learned were reasonable. Although studying Buddhism was useless to save the world, some principles in Buddhism could also make Chen Xuanzang think about problems more smoothly. .

But when he was about to go to the capital of Tubo, he got an unexpected thing. This time as an envoy of the Tang Dynasty, he didn't have to go alone. Not only did he have horses, but he also had two followers and four An envoy composed of escorts.

Although there were not many of them, when they entered the territory of Tubo, the border general of Tubo immediately dispatched a team of hundreds of people to protect and escort them to Lhasa, the current capital of Tubo.

That's right, the current capital of Tubo is still called Lhasa. Of course, it was changed from the original city of the Jieri Dynasty. In fact, it is still not far from Nalanda Temple.

He went back and forth twice within a few days, but Chen Xuanzang's mood was completely different. He had been observing the surrounding situation on the way, and he had to admit that Tubo's management of these places was actually good.

Chen Xuanzang knew this land very well. The beliefs of the people here are often very pious, ignorant and pious. Of course, this is also inseparable from the management methods of their managers.

And their minds always have an indescribable idea, which is different from normal people.

But on the whole, the people in this land that Chen Xuanzang met lived in hardship. They were often lazy, but they desperately hoped and believed in gods to make their lives better.

Of course, these people are a minority after all, and there are such people in many countries.But now, judging from the places he passed by, the surrounding fields have been planted with food, and the weeds and other things have been dealt with well.

And from the degree of reclamation of these fields, etc., Chen Xuanzang knew that after Tubo came under the jurisdiction, these original Tianzhu people lived much better than the Jieri Dynasty!

This is probably also the reason why Tubo was able to quickly gain a firm foothold and rule on this land.

This may become a bargaining chip for Tubo, but it is not important. If the negotiation can be made, Chen Xuanzang feels that he is still sure.

Chen Xuanzang soon met Songtsen Gampo, the two had met before, so after the meeting, Songtsen Gampo was also a little dazed: "The master is Master Xuanzang?"

"It's me, but I've returned to lay life now. I'm no longer a monk, but an envoy of the Tang Dynasty. My surname is Chen, Chen Xuanzang." Chen Xuanzang said with a smile.

"I've met Ambassador Chen." Songtsen Gampo nodded, which was enough to give him face.

"I wonder what the purpose of Ambassador Chen's visit this time is?"

"The new emperor of the Tang Dynasty has succeeded to the throne. Naturally, I have a certain purpose in coming here this time." Chen Xuanzang said with a smile.

"Oh, master, please tell me." Songtsan Gampo nodded, he was a little curious.

"Actually, I'm here to persuade His Majesty to surrender." Chen Xuanzang didn't hide his purpose, but said it directly. Now Tubo has transformed into a king system, so it's no problem for him to call Songtsan Gampo Your Majesty.

Songtsan Gampo looked at Chen Xuanzang with a confused face, he thought he heard it wrong, "Chen Envoy, are you sure you are right?"

"Of course I'm not wrong. I did come to persuade His Majesty to surrender. I wonder if Your Majesty has heard about Datang's latest achievements?" Chen Xuanzang said with a smile.

"Of course, but if you think I will surrender because of this, then you are wrong, envoy, I will not surrender." Songtsan Gampo said with a cold face.

"Your Majesty, where does your confidence come from?" Chen Xuanzang smiled.

"You...you don't have to worry about my confidence. If you just say this, you can go back, no matter what happens to Tang Dynasty, we Tibetans will not be afraid." Songtsan Gampo's face was a little ugly.

Chen Xuanzang smiled, and he said lightly, "I don't know the total population of Tubo now, but it will not exceed 200 million at most. I don't know how many soldiers there are."

"But Goguryeo has a population of more than 500 million, a total of more than 60 soldiers, and at least 30 armored soldiers, and at least [-] heavy cavalry!"

"What does Tubo have? Now the total number of soldiers in Tubo is no more than 20, and the armor is sold to you by the Tang Dynasty. It is unknown whether you can all wear armor for the 20."

"Why did Tubo not be afraid of Tang Dynasty back then? Was it because you were very powerful, Your Majesty? Or was it because Tubo's soldiers were very powerful? No, it's not your Majesty or Tubo's soldiers that are so powerful, but the terrain of Tubo."

"Without the natural moat of Tubo's plateau, you Tubo would have been wiped out long ago! It's not much different from Tuyuhun back then."

"The reason why you are still alive now is because Datang didn't spare your hand. Now Piao country has already been included in the territory of Datang, and there is no drag in the territory of Datang."

"That is to say, if the Tang Dynasty uses troops, going west is an inevitable choice, and Tubo is now blocked on this road."

"Your Majesty, are you really so confident?" Chen Xuanzang looked at Songtsan Gampo and asked calmly.

Songtsan Gampo's face was livid. It's not that he doesn't know something, but it's true that he was insulted face to face, so what?
