    Chapter 181 Princess Wencheng

    After returning from the medical clinic, Li Zhen was very happy. With the ten doctors sent by Sun Simiao and enough medicine, she no longer had to worry about the spread of plague and disease.

    The next step is to carefully select the person who will follow you into Tianzhu.

    Xue Rengui needs to be brought along, Xue Xiantu also needs to be brought along, Qiyun Shibaqi also needs to be brought along, as well as Nina and Di Renjie.

    Wang Fangyi and Cheng Chuzhi still have to stay in Chang'an. They control the Qianniu Guard and have military power in their hands, so they can sit in the rear for themselves.

    Shangguan Yi and King Luo Bin also want to stay and control the situation in Chang'an for themselves to prevent major changes.

    Just as he was thinking about it, he arrived at the door and saw from a distance that Wu Meiniang, Li Ruyi, Xu Hui, and Dou Xixian were waiting for her at the door. Li Zhen smiled bitterly and said to herself, she is very busy tonight

    Since Tianzhu and Datang were thousands of miles apart, Li Zhen was fully prepared.

    Five hundred strong soldiers were selected from the musketeers. These five hundred people were equipped with 500 muskets. Each of them carried four grenades, as well as thousands of grenades and 100,000 rounds of ammunition.

    Before leaving, Li Zhen went to say goodbye to Li Shimin. Li Shimin gave some more instructions and brought many gifts for Li Zhen to give to Songtsen Gampo, the Tubo Zanpu.

    The days apart are always too short. At least, Li Zhen's wives all felt the same way. When Li Zhen left, Xu Hui and other women cried so much that Li Zhen said, "I'm going."  When you win a battle, you should smile.¡±

    "I heard that Tianzhu is rich in gold and spices. When I come back, I will definitely bring you gifts."

    Afterwards, Li Zhen called Shangguan Yi again and explained to Shangguan Yi.

    Once I leave, Shangguan Yi will be my eyes and ears in Changguan City. If Changsun Wuji makes any moves, Shangguan Yi must monitor him in time to make sure nothing goes wrong.

    Shangguan Yi said loudly: "Your Highness, please rest assured that I will fulfill my mission."

    Li Zhen immediately called Zhou Qing and asked him to stay in Chang'an with 500 musketeers, 1,000 heavy cavalry, and 500 swordsmen. Upon hearing this, he must obey Shangguan Yi's dispatch and stabilize the situation in Chang'an.

    After explaining all this, Li Zhen took Xue Rengui, Xue Xiantu, Nina, Di Renjie, Wang Xuance, Jiang Shiren (deputy envoy of Tianzhu Mission), Lu Dongzan and five hundred musketeers on the road, preparing to go to Tubo via Tuyuhun, and then from Tubo to Tianzhu  .

    It was then that Li Zhen discovered that Sun Qingqi was among the ten doctors.

    Li Zhen asked: "You are not at home to take care of Senior Medicine King, why did you come here?"

    "I haven't been to Tianzhu yet. Let's go and have fun with you." Sun Qingqi said with a smile.

    Li Zhen took a look and found that she was already hundreds of miles away from Chang'an. He could not let her go back, so he had to let Sun Qingqi follow him.

    The group left Chang'an and arrived at Tuyuhun after more than half a month's trek.

    Tuyuhun was originally a powerful country, but recently suffered from natural and man-made disasters, and its national strength was weakened. It was defeated by the Tang Dynasty a few years ago and became a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty.

    However, after the rise of Tubo, it also looked covetously at Tuyuhun and always wanted to annex Tuyuhun as its own.

    Therefore, the relationship between Tuyuhun and Tubo is now very tense. Seeing Lu Dongzan and others in Li Zhen's team wearing Tibetan robes, the Tuyuhun people were very nervous and vigilant.

    Fortunately, Li Zhen had already stated the purpose of this transit in his letter to Tuyuhun Khan, so no trouble occurred.

    After passing Tuyuhun, we entered the territory of Tubo. Along the way, the altitude got higher and higher, and the air became thinner and thinner. The group just walked in silence. They felt guilty if they walked faster, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.

    Di Renjie was young and weak, so he fell first, followed by Li Zhen.

    Fortunately, doctors such as Sun Qingqi followed them in this business. Under Sun Qingqi's diagnosis and treatment, Li Zhen and Di Renjie gradually recovered.

    Heading westward, we passed through Tubo and entered Sunlight City, the administrative center of Tubo.

    Here, Li Zhen met the legend of Tubo, Zanpu Songtsen Gampo, and Princess Wencheng.

    In terms of age, Princess Wencheng is two years older than Li Zhen, but in terms of status, Princess Wencheng is the daughter of the clan, and Li Zhen is the prince, so Li Zhen's status is much higher than Princess Wencheng.

    But from the look in Princess Wencheng's eyes, Li Zhen could see that she was not living a happy life.

    In fact, Princess Wencheng came to Tubo and was just one of Songtsen Gampo¡¯s three wives.

    Songtsen Gampo had three wives, exceptIn addition to Princess Wencheng, there are also Princess Meng and Princess Chizun.

    ??Among them, Princess Wencheng and Princess Chizun had no children, and only Concubine Meng had a son. Therefore, Concubine Meng's status was very high.

    Songtsen Gampo¡¯s lifelong love was Princess Chizun from Niphara.

    As a result, Princess Wencheng's status is very embarrassing. Among the three wives, she is the one who is least loved by Songtsen Gampo.

    Although Songtsen Gampo respected Princess Wencheng very much, it was just respect.

    Seeing Princess Wencheng's unhappy look, Li Zhen felt very uncomfortable.

    He felt that Princess Wencheng was really pitiful. She traveled thousands of miles to this ancient and cold place on the plateau, but could not get the love of her husband. Her lonely life was really miserable.

    The fate of women in this era is really pitiful. Born into a royal family, they don¡¯t even have personal freedom.

    Princess Wencheng is no exception. Although she has contributed to the cultural and political exchanges between Tubo and Tang Dynasty and has left a lasting legacy, her own fate is so sad and far less than that of ordinary couples. Although it is a little harder, they have freedom and  love.

    Unlike now, it was basically the mascot of the friendship between Tang Dynasty and Tubo.

    Li Zhen gave Princess Wencheng some gifts, including letters from Princess Wencheng's parents to him, and a brocade bag containing soil from Chang'an City.

    Seeing these things, the tears in Princess Wencheng¡¯s eyes immediately flowed down, and she kept wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.

    ??Afterwards, Princess Wencheng played "Eighteen Beats of Hujie" for Li Zhen, expressing her pain of homesickness.

    When leaving the Potala Palace, Li Zhen felt very emotional in her heart. Princess Wencheng was really pitiful. However, if she could complete the unification of Tibet and the Tang Dynasty and integrate the two countries, Princess Wencheng at that time,  Maybe there will be a future.

    Thinking of this, Li Zhen made up her mind to let Princess Wencheng return to the Tang Dynasty during her lifetime.

    When meeting with Songtsan Gampo, Li Zhen asked him to borrow five thousand troops. Although it was the honeymoon period between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo, the shrewd Songtsan Gampo did not want to overly deplete his own strength for the sake of the Tang Dynasty.

    Therefore, Songtsen Gampo did not agree to send troops at first.

    Later, it was Lu Dongzan who came forward to ask for help, and Songtsen Gampo reluctantly agreed to give Li Zhen 1,200 cavalry.

    Li Zhen couldn't help but smile bitterly. There were hundreds of thousands of troops in Zhongtianzhu, but Songtsen Gampo only gave him 1,200 troops, and he also demanded that after defeating Zhongtianzhu, the spoils obtained after defeating Zhongtianzhu would be divided equally with Li Zhen. This was simply saving money and taking advantage.  idea.

    Li Zhen knew that relying only on Tubo's 1,200 cavalry was too small. Even if he added his own 500 musketeers, the situation would be disastrous.

    But now we are riding a tiger, and we must be determined to defeat Tianzhu. Only in this way can we save the face of the Tang Dynasty and make Tianzhu no longer dare to have any ill thoughts towards the Tang Dynasty (remember the website address of this site)  £ºwww.hlnovel.com
