Under Zhang Zong's induction, Gong Ren finally expressed his worries and asked Zhang Zong to help him analyze the current situation. It would be best to find a way to help him get rid of the tragic fate of the family.

I saw Zhang Zong pondering for a long time after hearing this, and finally looked up at Gong Ren and said, "Brother Gong Ren, there is one thing I want to ask you, you must answer me honestly!"

"Brother Zhang, please speak, I will definitely speak out!" Gong Ren immediately sat up straight and said with a solemn look on his face.

Zhang Zong hesitated for a moment again, then asked: "Brother Gong, I want to ask, how loyal is your family to Tubo?"

"Loyalty? Why did Brother Zhang ask like this?" Gong Ren asked in confusion when he heard Zhang Zong's words.

"If your family is loyal to Tubo and is even willing to die for Tubo, then I have no choice but to persuade you to disperse your tribe, and it is best to place your troops on the border of Tubo. If there is any change in the country, these scattered tribe members can escape from Tubo, so that they will not be taken away by others, leaving some blood for the family."

Zhang Zong paused and then said, "If your loyalty is not enough to make your family die for Tubo, then you must make plans early. As the saying goes, one mountain does not allow two tigers, and you will have a battle with the Tubo royal family sooner or later!"

Gong Ren is a smart person, so he doesn't need to say some things too clearly. After hearing Zhang Zong's words, he fell into deep thought again. In fact, this question is not complicated. With his talent, he can definitely think of them, but he is not willing to accept some things, which limits his thinking.

Zhang Zong looked at Gong Ren who was thinking and silent, but did not speak anymore, but picked up the tea and sipped it, and then waited patiently for Gong Ren's reply.

In fact, Zhang Zong also knew that even if he convinced Gong Ren today, it did not mean that the Gar family would immediately break with the Tubo royal family. After all, Gong Ren was too young and had little say in the family, and he could not decide the direction of the family for the time being.

However, Gong Ren is a good entry point, especially behind Gong Ren, the father Lun Qinling, who is the leading figure in the Gar family. If Gong Ren can influence Lun Qinling's decision, it will definitely make the Gar family wary of the Tubo royal family. In addition, Tubo Zanpu was young and the Tang Dynasty used troops to Tubo, and with the combined efforts of several factors, it will definitely cause chaos in Tubo.

Gong Ren pondered for a long time, then finally raised his head and bowed to Zhang Zong, "Thank you for your reminder!"

"Brother Gong, although we have different positions, from the perspective of our friends, I actually hope that you can stay in Chang'an for a long time. In this way, even if there is any change in Tubo in the future, you will not be involved!" Zhang Zong said again with a serious expression at this time.

Tubo and other countries will also send some long-term envoys in the Tang Dynasty. After all, transportation is inconvenient now. Sometimes, a mission will need to stay for several years when it comes to the Tang Dynasty. And even if you go back, some people will still be sent to stay behind. Therefore, Gong Ren can also stay in the Tang Dynasty. In fact, many noble children from small countries will use this method to stay in Chang'an because they are greedy for the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.

After hearing this, Gong Ren shook his head firmly and said, "Brother Zhang, I appreciate your kindness, but I can't watch my family fall from the edge of the cliff, so I have to go back. I may not be able to touch other people, but my father has always liked me the most, and he is the wisest person I have ever met. I believe he will definitely follow my advice!"

Gong Ren's words hit Zhang Zong's thoughts, but he still said again: "Brother Gong Ren, you don't have to worry. With the current power of your family, even if Tubo Zanpu wants to touch you, it will take a long time to plan, so you have enough time to prepare. In addition, if it is really impossible, you can also come to the Tang Dynasty. At that time, I will definitely plead with Your Highness the Crown Prince. With the ability of your family, you will definitely be valued by my Tang Dynasty!"

"This..." Gong Ren also heard the intention of recruiting Zhang Zong's words. He hesitated for a moment before bowing to thank him again, "Thank you, Brother Zhang. If you really get that step in the future, you will rely on Brother Zhang's care!"

"Brother Gong is polite. My Tang Dynasty has always been tolerant. As long as people of all races have talents, they can be valued by my Tang Dynasty. Not to mention anything else, there are also many foreign generals in the Tang Dynasty army. With the ability of Brother Gong’s family, if you come to my Tang Dynasty, you will definitely be valued by Your Majesty. I may still need Brother Gong’s care in the future!" Zhang Zong bowed and smiled.

However, Gong Ren did not interfere anymore. After all, things are not clear yet, so it is still too early to discuss surrendering to the Tang Dynasty. At least it will be not too late to wait until he returns to Tubo and discuss with his father and others before making plans.

Zhang Zong also knew Gong Ren’s thoughts, so he did not discuss this issue again. It was getting late at this time, and Gong Ren also got the answer he wanted, so he stood up again to say goodbye. Zhang Zong did not keep him, and personally sent the other party out of the door. He only smiled and closed the door after watching the other party’s carriage.

"Congratulations to young master, this Gong Ren seems to have been caught!" Wan'er immediately stepped forward and said. Although she had not heard the conversation between Zhang Zong and Gong Ren just now, she could also guess that after all, she had participated in this matter from beginning to end.

"He is not taking the bait, we are just telling him the facts and then letting him make a choice by himself. This is a dignified and open plot!" Zhang Zong replied with a smile.

It is precisely because of this that Zhang Zong did not worry about failure from the beginning, unless Gong Ren was really devoted to Tubo, and even if he sacrificed his family, he would not be willing to harm the interests of Tubo. However, such a saint only exists in legends and cannot exist in reality. What's more, political groups like the Gar family put their own interests first.

"Young master is wise!" Wan'er smiled and flattered him when she saw Zhang Zong's proud look, which made Zhang Zong laugh again, looking like a treacherous minister.

In the following period, although Gong Ren still came to Zhang Zong as often as before, both of them had a very tacit understanding. They did not talk about the Gar family and Tubo anymore, but focused on academic discussions. However, Gong Ren would occasionally go away, and it seemed that this matter was still under his heart.

That afternoon, Zhang Zong came to Chongxian Hall to teach Xue Shao and others as usual. However, as soon as the class was halfway through, he suddenly received a summoning from Li Hong, which surprised him. However, he still put down his books and walked to Li Hong's hall where he handled government affairs. However, just as Zhang Zong entered the hall, he saw a tall and burly old man sitting next to Li Hong's right hand, discussing something with Li Hong?
