Li Shimin looked strange, and after a while he said: "It's even worse than this. Mr. Zhao wants to capture Songtsen Gampo and parade him through the streets."
Poof!
Cheng Yaojin felt that his face was turning red. Parading?
Good guy, as expected of Mr. Zhao, this is simply murderous and heartbreaking.
"Let Mr. Zhao take care of Songtsen Gampo. There is no problem on my side. Go call the two messengers in and I can issue an order."
¡¡
And this side, Songzhou City.
Songzhou City was bustling with activity, but Zhao Chen still lived a leisurely and comfortable life. No matter where he was, he had to maintain his style of life.
At this moment, Zhao Chen was slowly using the stone stove to make kebabs.
The condiments were brought from Zhaofu Manor in Chang'an, including chili sauce, cumin, etc., and what was being grilled was beef.
The wafting aroma is a bit similar to sizzling beef. Not far away, Cheng Chumo and the others all swallowed their saliva.
"Mr. Zhao!"
Some generals rushed over.
Songzhou City is now considered to be in charge of Han Wei again. After all, he has learned his lesson and will definitely be more conservative. It is impossible for a person to fall into the same river twice.
"What's up?"
Zhao Chen continued to apply chili sauce with a brush.
"Mr. Zhao, Prince Tuyuhun is here and wants to come and see you."
"The Prince of Tuyuhun County?"
Zhao Chen thought for a moment: "Murong Guangshun's nephew or son?"
"I'm not very clear about this, but he is the king of Tuyuhun appointed by His Majesty, and is responsible for the management of the entire Tuyuhun."
Zhao Chen nodded: "I know this, it's the policy of restraining foreigners, using barbarians to control barbarians."
The so-called restraint policy is almost a puppet regime. This person was also supported by Li Shimin, but in terms of ability, he was really inferior.
Not to mention the Tubo attack this time, they fled directly to Qinghai. During the Tang Gaozong period, they also fled directly, and then Tuyuhun perished.
"Mr. Zhao, do you want to see me or not?"
Zhao Chen thought for a moment: "You go and tell him, just say he is too polite. I am a little inconvenient now. I will come to visit you in person in a few days."
The general nodded: "Okay, Mr. Zhao."
"By the way, let him go back to his tribe, don't wait in Songzhou City."
"yes."
Zhao Chen continued to apply chili sauce.
Qin Huaidao ran over: "Mr. Zhao."
"How is it, is there any movement in Tubo?"
"Mr. Zhao, you are so awesome. You could even guess what I was going to say when I was about to come over."
"Stop flattering me. All 50,000 troops were wiped out, and their king was captured by me. This time, Tubo suffered heavy losses. If it were you, wouldn't you be in a hurry?"
Zhao Chen calmly picked up the roasted beef and took a bite. The feeling was amazing!
Qin Huaidao swallowed: "Mr. Zhao, what are you baking?"
"help yourself."
"okay."
Qin Huaidao also took one and flicked it off in one gulp, his eyes shining brightly.
"It's delicious, Mr. Zhao."
After Zhao Chen finished eating, when he saw Qin Huaidao still wanting to eat, he couldn't help but pat the back of his hand.
¡°Leave some for others.¡±
"oh."
Zhao Chen then stood up and clapped his hands: "Let's go, let's go see the Tubo envoy first."
After walking a few steps, Qin Huaidao quickly followed, but when he saw Zhao Chen stopped again, he quickly asked: "Mr. Zhao, is there anything else you missed?"
"Folding fan."
Qin Huaidao quickly gave it to Zhao Chen. Zhao Chen opened it skillfully and nodded with satisfaction. Now this folding fan is a powerful tool for showing off. Without it, Zhao Chen is not used to it.
"Walk."
Soon, Zhao Chen saw the Tubo envoy in the room.
"Dear Prince Consort of the Tang Dynasty."
The Tubo envoy immediately saluted.
Zhao Chen smiled slightly: "Hello, hello, why are you so polite? Come and have some tea."
The Tibetan envoy stood still, just lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty, I have heard about your deeds. This battle in Songzhou is also surprising."
"Um."
Zhao Chen took a sip of tea by himself and listened unhurriedly to what the Tubo envoy was saying.
"Your martial arts are unparalleled, and I, the king, cannot overestimate you."?, I chose the wrong opponent, and I deserved to lose this time. "
Zhao Chen nodded: "I think so too."
"My lord consort, I just don't know if you are willing or not. You don't remember the villain's fault. Let my king go. I, Tubo, am willing to pay the price. As long as my lord consort is willing, everything will be easy to negotiate."
Zhao Chen smiled and said, "I think so too. Is there anything we can't talk about, right? But before that, I want to ask a few questions."
"You asked."
"There's no fighting within Tubo, right?"
The envoy was stunned, and Zhao Chen said leisurely: "Tubo is just a country that has just transformed from a tribe into a country similar to the Central Plains. Although the old aristocrats in the country were suppressed by Songtsan Gampo, they were not completely integrated. Now Songtsan Ganbu was defeated in Songzhou, and his 50,000-strong army was wiped out, and even captured alive by me. This blow was much more serious in Tubo, and it is inevitable that some people would not be ready to take action. So I want to know if there is a fight within Tubo. ?¡±
"This, not yet."
Zhao Chen looked regretful: "Then I missed a good opportunity to stir up trouble."
The Tibetan envoy; ""
"Second question, who sent you here?"
The Tubo envoy said: "This is Lord Ludongzan."
The fan in Zhao Chen's hand stopped: "I forgot about him. There is a smart man in Tubo. It seems that Tubo will not fall in a short time. Since he is the one who sent you to see me, he must have made some mistakes." You take your message, stop beating around the bush, just say it directly."
The envoy nodded: "Lord Lu Dongzan's original words are that we in Tibet will try our best to satisfy the price and conditions, and will never invade the Tang Dynasty in the next twenty years. We are willing to bow to the Tang Dynasty and pay tribute every year."
Zhao Chen smiled and said: "If the conditions are small, I will not like it. Within twenty years, I can say frankly that this battle will destroy the vitality of your Tubo for at least thirty years. Can you Tubo recover?"
The messenger said: "Your Majesty Prince Consort"
Zhao Chen raised his hand: "Don't worry, it's business. In business, the conditions can definitely be negotiated, but it's not the time yet. You go back and wait. Lu Dongzan will send you again when the time comes. .¡±
The messenger was at a loss.
Zhao Chen smiled and said: "Okay, you can go. Maybe in addition to Lu Dongzan, your old nobles from Tubo will also send people to see me. Their condition then is to kill Songtsen Gampo."
The envoy had no choice but to go back.
After the envoy left, Qin Qiong arrived.
"Mr. Zhao, what's next?"
"We will wait for His Majesty's letter and imperial edict. Once these things arrive, we will be able to handle the matter."
As he was talking, there was a voice outside: "Report!! The imperial edict has arrived!!"
"Oh? Here you go, it seems that your Majesty's efficiency is quite high."
Zhao Chen smiled and said: "Let's go, Lao Qin, and take the order." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
