Chapter 913
Wang Xuance's reaction was very subtle and well-measured, a trace of astonishment flashed across his eyes, which was both a surprise and a cover-up, but gave Gongri Gongzan infinite reverie.

This kind of reverie is what Wang Xuance wants to see, but it is fatal to Chisang Yangdun. Chisang Yangdun is very clear about what he said after meeting Li Ke in the Western Capital. Zan made an excuse, and made it clear what Gongri Gongzan had explained.

But Chisang Yangdun was the only Tibetan who met Li Ke in the big tent that day. No one could prove the truth of what Chisang Yangdun said. Attitude, it is reasonable for Gongri Gongzan to have such doubts about Chisang Yangdun.

The panic in Chisang Yangdun's eyes was originally because Wang Xuance and Gongri Gongzan looked at him one after another, so he was a little at a loss, but this kind of panic fell into Gongri Gongzan's eyes, and it became the uneasiness of a lie being exposed. Gongri Gongzan became more convinced of this guess.

Wang Xuance was face to face, and at this juncture, Gongri Gongzan would naturally not go to Chisang Yangdun to verify this matter in public, and it is indeed not easy to verify this matter in person, but this matter is indeed of great importance. Dare to be careless.

So Gongri Gongzan excused himself to discuss peace with the courtiers, and perfunctorily passed Wang Xuance, and specially arranged for Wang Xuance to rest in the embassy room, and invited him back first.

After Wang Xuance returned, Gongri Gongzan's uneasiness became more and more serious. Immediately, it was heard that Nan Cong Xiang, whom he was now relying on as his arm, discussed the matter together.

"You should have heard what Wang Xuance said in the palace just now." Gongri Gongzan asked Nan Congxiang after he came up.

Nan Congxiang naturally knew what Gongri Gongzan was asking, but he still tentatively replied: "What Zanpu said should be about the Prime Minister's previous envoy to Tang."

Gongri Gongzan said: "That's right, that's exactly what happened. At the beginning, Emperor Tang was assassinated by Tubo people in Liangzhou. It was rumored in the country that I did it. But it really has nothing to do with me, so I learned about it. Immediately after the news, Chisang Yangdun was ordered to go to Liangzhou to explain the matter to Tang Emperor. There was a lot of commotion about this matter at the time, and you should know it too."

Nan Cong Xiang replied: "I naturally know about this matter. At that time, the prime minister was indeed ordered by Zanpu to go to Liangzhou to ask the emperor of Tang, and he also met him in the western capital. It's just that the emperor was furious and didn't listen to the prime minister's excuse. , determined to march west."

"That's right, it was indeed the case, but looking at Wang Xuance's reaction today, I'm afraid the matter is not that simple. It seems that he doesn't know about Chisang Yangdun's defense at all." Gongri Gongzan frowned and said to Nan Congxiang.

Gongri Gongzan had such an idea, but it fell into Nan Congxiang's arms. Nancong Xiang followed Gongri Gongzan's words and said: "Looking at Wang Xuance's reaction today, it is indeed a bit abnormal, as if he didn't know about it at all. It’s quite different from what Dai Dai said.”

Nan Congxiang said, as if he had thought of an outrageous possibility, opened his mouth slightly, his face showed surprise, and praised Gong Rigong: "Zanpu suddenly mentioned this matter, it is possible that he also suspected that the big Met Empress Tang and did not follow orders to pass on Zanpu's words?"

Nan Congxiang used the word "also", obviously he and Gongri Gongzan had the same idea, they both felt that what Wang Xuance did was strange, and they suspected Chisang Yangdun.

Gongri Gongzan asked: "Did you think of this before?"

Nan Congxiang replied: "That's right, it's just that this matter is too horrifying, and the prime minister is in an important position, so I dare not mention it."

The answer given by Nan Congxiang is yes, such an affirmative answer further deepened Gongri Gongzan's doubts about Chisang Yangdun, Gongri Gongzan thought for a moment, and said: "If our guess is true, then It is treason by the prime minister, which is a disaster for me, Tubo."

As Gongri Gongzan said, if his guess is true, then Chisang Yangdun was not loyal to him from the very beginning. Lu Dongzan, who has now "fallen to the Tang Dynasty", is the same as Lu Dongzan.

There is even a possibility that Chisang Yangdun colluded with Ludongzan from the very beginning, and they created the situation where Tubo was invaded today and the main force was lost.

Chisang Yangdun and Lu Dongzan were good friends, and they both went to Chang'an for envoys and met Li Ke. It is not impossible for them to have such thoughts.

Gongri Gongzan is suspicious by nature. Nan Congxiang watched Gongri Gongzan fall into the trap step by step, and began to suspect that Chisang Yangdun colluded with Lu Dongzan to surrender to Tang Dynasty. He couldn't help feeling happy, which meant that his plan had succeeded. half.

But now Gongri Gongzan is only suspicious of Chisang Yangdun's actions, and there is still no substantive evidence, which is not enough to shake Chisang Yangdun in a short period of time, and Nancong Xiang should not be too impatient Otherwise, it will arouse Gongri Gongzan's suspicion.

Nan Congxiang said: "This matter seems a bit absurd, but it is also possible when you think about it carefully. Zanpu must be careful and must not be careless. After all, the great aspect has a higher weight than others."

Gongri Gongzan nodded in agreement, and then asked: "What you said is that I want to send Chisang Yangdun here to inquire about this in person, what do you think?"

Naturally, Nan Congxiang didn't want Gongri Gongzan to confront Chisang Yangdun face to face. Once the two confront each other, the misunderstanding might be resolved, and everything he had done before would be in vain.

Nan Congxiang hurriedly said: "This matter is absolutely impossible. According to Yichen now, the prime minister probably has some connection with Tang Ting. If Zanpu interrogates the prime minister face to face, and the prime minister sees that his face has been exposed by Zanpu, I am afraid it will be a big deal." Take the risk and do something that is not good for Zanpu. And now the Tang envoy is doing something, if there is such a commotion in the city at this time, it will only give the Tang people an opportunity."

Nan Cong Xiang's worries are not unreasonable. Chisang Yangdun is quite prestigious in the court, and he has close contacts with many important officials in the court. Zan Pu may not be able to clean up the mess.

And now is the time to negotiate with Tang Jun. The more chaotic the situation is now, the more Wang Xuance will look down on them, and the lower their bargaining chip in front of Tang Jun will be, which will only make them more passive.

Gong Ri Gong praised: "You are very right, so according to your opinion, what should we do?"

Nan Congxiang didn't directly respond to Gongri Gongzan's words, which was obviously too deliberate. Nan Congxiang thought for a while in a deep voice, and then said: "At the moment, it is best to respond to all changes with the same, Zanpu must first Pretending to be ignorant of this matter, and making plans after Emperor Tang leaves, it's just that."

Nan Congxiang said, paused and continued: "It's just that the Prime Minister may collude with the Tang people after all. On the days when the Tang envoys are here, Zanpu still needs to send people to watch the prime minister and the Tang envoys to avoid accidents. Something out of control."

"Okay, I will do as you say, and you will arrange this matter yourself." Gongri Gongzan agreed.
