Capital Datang

Chapter 183 Songtsan Gambo Arrives

"Third brother, what country is that cavalry from? Why does it look familiar to me?" Li Min woke up Li Ke who was in a daze, and asked, pointing at the wet foreign cavalry that was soaked by rain.

"These are Tubo cavalry, and they seem to be protecting an extremely important person." Li Ke looked up in a depressed mood, and said weakly.But then he suddenly raised his head again, took a closer look at the Tubo cavalry, and then said solemnly: "Looking at the equipment and specifications of this cavalry, as well as the decoration of the cart in the middle, it seems that it should be Songtsan Gampo, the king of Tubo, came in person."

But as soon as Li Ke finished speaking, he immediately returned to his original weak appearance, and finally rekindled his ambition for the throne, but was ruthlessly extinguished by Li Yin. This kind of blow is almost ruined for anyone. "Sexual", now he has no interest in the outside world at all.

When Li Yin heard that the other party turned out to be the famous Songtsan Gampo in history, he suddenly lost his composure. While looking up and down the cavalry, he was thinking about the other party's intention to come to Datang?It is said that after the last battle of Songzhou, Tubo was so injured by the Tang Dynasty that he became honest all of a sudden, and it has been almost two years now. How come Songtsan Gambo took the risk at this time , came all the way to Datang?

"Third brother, please help me think about it, how could Songtsan Gampo come to our Tang Dynasty at this time, and what purpose does he have?" Li Yin instinctively felt that the other party was not a good person, and it was very likely that he would stir up trouble again. There was a disturbance.Capital Datang 183

"I don't know this, maybe it has something to do with the war in Gaochang?" Li Ke obviously lost confidence in his future life.He looked half-dead, and he didn't even move his mind lazily.

"Gaochang?" Li Min's eyes lit up when he heard this. He remembered that Gaochang was not very far from Tubo. Could it be that the defeat of Tubo, the Tubo general, was terrified by Datang's use of troops against Gaochang this time, which is why Songtsan Gampo came all the way here? Peaceful?Thinking of this possibility, Li Yin was shocked immediately.If this is the case, then things will be much easier, after all, it was the other party who came to ask Datang.No matter how you do it, there won't be much disturbance.

"Brother Six..." Li Yin just wanted to discuss the possibility he thought of with Li Ke, but when he turned his head and saw the half-dead look of the other party, he couldn't help but feel angry.It was still a bit funny, and he raised his fist and hit the other party on the shoulder and said, "Sixth brother, you are too worthless, isn't it just a throne, if you believe me, come with me to the south after the new year." , when the time comes, I will show you a brand new life path, which will definitely be ten thousand times better than staying in Chang'an foolishly!"

"Liu Lang, don't make fun of me!" Li Ke obviously thought that Li Yin was comforting him, so he didn't take the other party's words seriously.

"Third brother. Little brother, although I usually mess around, I have never joked about such a big event!" Li Yin looked serious, and it seemed that he did not intend to half-joke.

Seeing Li Yin's serious look, even Li Ke couldn't help being taken aback.He also concentrated his attention, and asked, "Liulang, what are you going to do in the south? I heard that Yanbei, Cui Yu, and some people from the Chang'an family will also go with you. Do you have any big plans?"

"Third brother, in fact, the real destination of this trip to the south is Liuqiu Island. When I returned to Chang'an, I sent people there to do some work, but now I have encountered some troubles, and I need to deal with them myself. As for bringing Yan Bei, Cui Yu and others are together, of course there are other considerations." Li Yin didn't know how to explain this to Li Ke, so he had to say this.

"Liuqiu Dadao?" Li Ke frowned immediately when he heard the name. He can be regarded as a person who has a lot of knowledge, but he has only heard about the place of Liuqiu Dadao. The reason for Li Yin's grandfather, Yang Guang, was because their tyrant grandfather had sent people to Liuqiu Dadao more than once in the Sui Dynasty, so he had an impression.

"Third brother, don't make random guesses about this matter. Anyway, there is nothing to do after the new year. Just follow me. I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer when the time comes. What do you think?" Now, Min's heart is full of the coming of Tubo, and he doesn't have the heart to explain to Li Ke, so he can only pat his chest and assure him.

"Okay, as you said, Liu Lang, we are brothers, and the third brother believes in you!" Li Ke finally cheered up, and also punched Li Yin on the shoulder with his fist and said, if he doesn't even believe his own brother, then Who else could he trust?

Seeing that the sunny and cheerful third brother finally came back, Li Yin was also very pleased. The two looked at each other and laughed out loud almost at the same time.At this time, they and the Tubo cavalry arrived at Anhua Gate at the same time, probably because they heard the laughter of the two, this obviously elite cavalry team showed a hint of vigilance.

The window of the luxury car sandwiched between the cavalry was also opened a gap, and a pair of wolf-like eyes followed the laughter.Just at this time, Li Yin and Li Ke also looked at this side, and the eyes of the three met in the air, and they were all shocked.

What a pair of ambitious eyes!Li Yin and Li Kehe had such a thought in their hearts almost at the same time.Later generations say that the eyes are the windows of the soul. This statement is absolutely true. The first thing to look at in the art of observing people is the other person's eyes. From the eyes of the person in the car, Li Yin and Li Ke can see not only toughness, calm In addition to being wise and wise, there is also endless ambition, and the other party's eyes are extremely aggressive, which makes people feel chills all over the body, as if there is no secret that can be hidden from the other party, to have such a complicated pair of eyes , presumably the one sitting in the car must be Songtsen Gampo, the ruler of Tubo.

At the same time, the people in the car also slowly closed the windows, and murmured at the same time: "The Tang Dynasty is indeed an outstanding man, and the two young people I met outside the city unexpectedly have the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix. It is a pity that if I put it in Tubo, it would be a great chancellor!"

Regarding the arrival of this Tubo cavalry, the "government" of the Tang Dynasty had already received news. Outside the gate of Anhuamen, two officials from Honglu Temple were waiting.However, Datang obviously didn't pay much attention to the arrival of Tubo's lord. After all, in the eyes of Tang people, Tubo was just a defeated general. A low-ranking petty official came to greet him.

Li Yin and Li Ke were not in a hurry to enter the city at this time. They rode on horseback and looked at the Tubo cavalry, and found that the other party's equipment was not bad. Everyone was wearing iron armor, and the weapons in their hands were also made of iron. The last time Niu Jinda defeated the Tubo army, he reported to the Ministry of War that the Tubo people's combat power was not high, and most of them used bronze weapons, and iron weapons accounted for a very small proportion. If this is true, then It can be said that this cavalry is very extravagant in Tubo.

These Tubo knights all looked tough, with a tyrannical murderous look all over their bodies, which was a bit similar to the tiger-headed army on the battlefield, and they seemed to be an army of hundreds of battles.It's just that when this cavalry was marching, the team was not as neat as the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty, and it was estimated that it would be lacking in military discipline.

When the Tubo people came to the city gate, a Tubo official came out and handed over the documents to the welcoming officials. After confirming that they were correct, the soldiers guarding the gate let them go.But at this time, Li Yin sent someone to invite one of the officials who were welcoming him, and wanted to ask the Tubo king's purpose for coming to Datang.

The official didn't notice Li Min just now, and when he saw him, he immediately walked over and bowed and said: "Honglu Temple Chancellor Zhou Wenju, pay homage to His Royal Highness King Wu and King Qi!" Capital Datang 183

The prime minister of Honglu Temple was an official of the fifth grade, and he was considered a high-ranking official in the Tang Dynasty. No wonder Li Yin looked at him familiarly.Although the fifth-rank officials are nothing in the eyes of Li Yin and Li Ke, but seeing the other party's demeanor, there is no attitude of bowing to them, so their brothers dare not neglect, throwing their saddles off their horses and returning the salute: "Zhou Sicheng No need to be too polite!"

After the ceremony was over, Li Yin went straight to the point and asked, "Zhou Sicheng, this time the Tubo people are visiting, but is their lord Songtsan Gampo coming in person?"

"His Royal Highness King Qi has good eyesight, this time the Lord of Tubo is indeed coming in person!" Zhou Wenju replied with a smile.

"Hehe, I guess they must have come here because of the Gaochang incident?" Li Ke also said with a smile at this time.

"His Royal Highness King Wu is right. My Great Tang pacified Gaochang in one fell swoop, and also occupied the Khan City of the Western Turks. This move not only shocked the countries in the Western Regions, but also made Tubo, who was close at hand, feel restless. Some time ago Our Honglu Temple has received news of dozens of small countries entering the dynasty, and Tubo moved the fastest. When Gaochang was first settled, the Tubo king left for our Datang, so he was the first to reach Chang'an!" Zhou Wenju When he spoke, his face was full of the demeanor of a great country.

Honglu Temple was originally in charge of diplomacy, and as the diplomats of the Tang Dynasty, Zhou Wenju and the others were undoubtedly very happy, because now the Tang Dynasty's national power is at its peak, and foreign wars are even more victorious. There is no decent opponent at all, so These officials in charge of diplomacy have always looked awesome when facing envoys from other countries, which is much luckier than those Chinese diplomats in later generations.

Hearing that many small countries in the Western Regions were going to pay tribute to Chang'an, Li Min's heart moved. If the envoys from these small countries can arrive in Chang'an before the Winter Games, then they can be invited to participate in the competition. The number of people, and can improve the influence of the sports meeting.

Just when Li Yin was complacent about his idea, Zhou Wenju said again: "Your Highness, as far as I know, the Tubo king came here this time not only to repair the relationship between the two countries, but also to restore the old things. Mention, ask Your Majesty for a princess to be his wife!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets.
