Chapter 123 Sincerity
However, seeing that the two were fighting hard, Li Ke said, "Let them be pulled apart, so that it will be bad if you lose your life."
Li Zheng nodded, and Li Ke called a few wounded soldiers who had changed the medicine to pull the two away.
Fu Ni looked ferocious, and after pulling it away, he kicked it right in Lu Dongzan's face.
Lu Dongzan grinned at Fu Ni. If someone hadn't tried to tear Fu Ni's heart, he would have had it.
Li Zheng smoothed out the situation and said, "We believe that harmony is the most important thing. We Central Plains people pay attention to convincing people with reason. It is not good not to fight at all times."
Fu Ni bowed and said, "It's rude."
These two people have to duel, and it will be bad for anyone who dies here.
If you want a life-and-death duel, you have to change your place. You can go to Chang'an. Anyway, you can't be at the entrance of your own village.
Li Zheng helped Fu Ni clean his clothes and said, "This messenger, I actually know the difficulties of your Tuyuhun. I will tell you that our Tang Dynasty also has difficulties."
Fu Ni looked up at Li Zheng in confusion.
Li Zheng sighed and said, "There was the Wei River Alliance of the Turks in front of him. The Turks did not keep their promises. To be honest, our Tang Dynasty really doesn't want to interfere in this matter."
Fu Ni's expression immediately became nervous.
Speaking of this, Li Zheng's tone paused and let the atmosphere brew for a while.
Then when Lu Dongzan was quiet, Li Zhengcai continued to speak: "How long have you been in the Central Plains for our Tang Dynasty? Now we need to rest and rest in the people. Do you think we can live a stable life? Is it necessary to worry about these other people's business?"
Fu Ni's expression became even worse and he became even more panicked.
Li Zheng continued: "Our Tang Dynasty has always treated people with courtesy and reason. I really don't want to use war again. The generals in the court asked for battle more than once to counterattack you Tuyuhun and teach you a lesson. If you weren't saying good things in front of His Majesty, you may be..."
Fu Ni swallowed a mouthful of saliva with a pale face, "I'm afraid what it is."
"When you are seriously injured in Tuyuhun's vitality, you will be wiped out."
Fu Ni retreated repeatedly and knelt down with a pounce, "I would like to ask the county marquis to save us Tuyuhun. We are willing to swear that we will never offend the Tang Dynasty again."
Never offend again? Li Zheng was sarcastic in his heart.
"But if our Tang Dynasty does not fight Wuming, we cannot lead to Wuming."
"Yes, yes!" Fu Ni nodded vigorously.
Li Zheng sighed: "Besides, even if you go to war, you can't fight both sides. As for which side you are willing to help... it is really distressing. Your Majesty has asked him several times, saying that it is better to help Tubo or Tuyuhun."
Fu Ni naturally knew this truth. No matter which side the Tang Dynasty supports, it had a great impact on the battle situation.
Now Tuyuhun and Tubo are in a stalemate in the Gobi Desert. If the Tang Dynasty could support Tuyuhun, it would be a big helper.
At that time, the war will be overwhelming.
No matter what, we must win the Tang Dynasty to our own side.
Fu Ni hurriedly said, "Marquis of the County, I know that you are also a person with a temperament. This is how you, even if you have the conditions for the Tang Dynasty, as long as your Majesty is willing to form an alliance."
After hearing Fu Ni say this, Li Zheng sighed again.
"Why did the county marquis sigh again?"
"I'll tell you the truth again. Many ministers in the court also said that you Tuguhun wolf ambitions. If you form an alliance today, you will change your mind tomorrow. The Turkic alliance of Weishui Alliance happened before. Such repetitions really make people worry."
Fu Ni immediately patted his chest and said, "How could we Tuyuhun be like the Turks? We Tuyuhun people are the most honest!"
After hearing Li Zheng say the word "condition", Lu Dongzan interrupted and immediately said: "Marquis of the County, we Tubo offer tens of thousands of cattle and sheep, five thousand jin of silver coins every year?"
That's it? Li Zheng sneered: "Did I forgive you? Did I let you speak? Stand for me and don't interrupt."
Lu Dongzan looked at Li Zheng's appearance, gritted her teeth and endured the anger and anxiety in her heart.
Li Zheng looked at Fu Ni and said, "What conditions are you Tuyuhun willing to come up with?"
Fu Ni said, "We, Tuyuhun, are willing to take out 6,000 horses and 10,000 cattle and sheep, and will never offend the Tang Dynasty. We are willing to regard the Tang Dynasty as the best country."
"Not?"
“Is there any more?”
Li Zheng shook his head repeatedly, "Will you all form an alliance with this Tuyuhun envoy? This is too stingy. If our Tang Dynasty had an alliance with Tubo, would you still have a way out for Tuyuhun? Besides, why do you say that you Tuyuhun will not offend the Tang Dynasty again? What do you use to make our Tang Dynasty believe you? If Tuyuhun can only bring out these, the ministers in the court will not agree."
Fu Ni seemed to have suffered a sluggishness, and his words were choked in his throat.
Li Zheng looked at Lu Dongzan on the side, "You just said what your Tubo conditions are, I didn't hear clearly."
Lu Dong praised the appearance and color.
Li Zheng said again: "You must speak carefully, don't think of this Tuyuhun messenger."
Fu Bing hurriedly pulled Li Zheng aside and said, "Marquis of the County, please pay attention to what this ordinary man is doing. We can discuss this condition slowly."
"Is that?" Li Zheng said again: "I can treat what you said just now as if you didn't say anything. I know you are not performing well, and it's getting late. Why not go back to Chang'an first and think about how to speak. Remember, you must not play like before."
Fu Ni nodded in disappointment and looked at Lu Dongzan.
Li Zheng said to Lu Dongzan: "You go back first, I won't forgive you and say nothing."
Lu Dongzan turned around and left.
Fu Ni was also worried when he walked back. Judging from the words of the county marquis, it seemed that the matter of forming an alliance with Tuyuhun in the court was very resistant.
What should we do if the Tang Dynasty was really willing to form an alliance with Tubo?
I looked back at Li Zheng's back. If Li Zheng could say a few more words to His Majesty today, things might really turn around.
After arriving in Chang'an, Fu Ni and Lu Dongzan asked to see His Majesty today, but they were still rejected.
Li Shimin listened to Li Junxian's report, Lu Dongzan and Fu Ni went to see Li Zheng together.
"Lu Dongzan apologized to the King of Shu, but Li Zheng and the King of Shu did not forgive him."
Li Shimin nodded slightly, and according to Fang Xuanling's method, it seemed that the reality and reality of Tubo had been tested.
If Tubo had the confidence to start a war with the Tang Dynasty, why did he apologize to Li Zheng and Li Ke?
Thinking of this, Li Shimin was in a worse mood and almost got scared by Tubo!
In this way, Songtsen Gampo must be guarded.
This man was greedy for the Hexi Corridor and used it to form an alliance.
Li Shimin told Li Junxian: "Tell Yuchi Gong, who is stationed in Liangzhou, send a look and see how Tubo is now."
"Here." Li Junxian nodded and left.
As soon as Li Junxian left, the eunuch hurriedly came to report: "Your Majesty, the King of Hanzhong is asking for a meeting."
