The Tubo Palace was filled with gloom and gloom.
From Zanpu, the Prime Minister to the ordinary ministers, their faces were full of fear and fear.
The million-strong Turkic army was wiped out in ashes. Once King Wu's army arrived, how could Tubo not be destroyed?
After a long time, Nangri Lunzan suddenly sighed and said:"The Central Plains was in turmoil, and Li Changqing led the white-robed army to sweep across the world, helping the Tang emperor to unify the country. At that time, the reputation of Li Changqing and the white-robed army had spread to Tubo.
But at that time, we did not take it into consideration and did not pay attention to it.
So we actually made a big mistake, trying to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and allowed Jieli Khan to use the road to invade the hinterland of the Central Plains from Yumen Pass.
Jieli lured He persuaded us to borrow 50,000 troops to help him attack Chang'an.
If I had known that Li Changqing and his soldiers were so brave, how could I dare to borrow troops from the Turks!"
The palace was filled with civil and military officials who regretted their mistake. Their faces were filled with regret.
The prime minister smashed the desk in anger and cursed fiercely:"If it weren't for Jieli, why would Tubo be like this!"
Many officials also followed the prime minister and cursed Jieli Khan in anger.
After everyone vented their fears for a while, Nangri Lunzan said with a sad face:"On this occasion, I should think of a way to face the Tang army. The Tang army had just defeated the Turks, and its momentum was like a rainbow. The soldiers If we work together, we only need a few months of repairs, and we can take Tubo directly. By then, how can we resist the army of King Wu of the Tang Dynasty!"
Everyone in the court fell into sadness again.
The situation has reached this point. Tubo has completely offended the Tang Dynasty. What else can they come up with?
After a long time, the Prime Minister of Tibet suddenly said:"Zanpu, I have a plan to ensure the safety of Tubo."
Hearing this, Nangri Lunzan and all the Tibetan ministers were overjoyed and quickly focused their attention on the Prime Minister.
"If the Prime Minister has any plans, tell me quickly!"
The Prime Minister said:"Whenever the Central Plains Dynasty became powerful, it would use troops to expand its territory and expand its territory.
When the country is stable, it will engage in trade and exchanges with foreign nations.
When the country is in decline, it sticks to its borders, pays tribute to foreigners, and makes peace with foreigners.
We might as well learn from the Central Plains Dynasty!"
As soon as the Prime Minister said this, Nang Ri Lunzan and the ministers in the court all looked horrified, and their eyes were full of disbelief.
Nang Ri Lunzan said in a trembling voice:"Prime Minister... The Prime Minister means... Xiang Daxiang. Donagong and marriage!"
As he spoke, he shook his head violently:"No! Paying tribute and marrying is an insult to the country's prestige! I disagree!"
Since ancient times, the Central Plains dynasties have moved outward to protect their borders.
I have never seen any foreign people take the initiative to be friendly to the dynasty!
If Tubo made this move, it would definitely be ridiculed by the small countries surrounding the Tang Dynasty such as Goryeo and Tuyuhun.
The prime minister's face was solemn and his voice was low:"Pu, today is different from the past! Now the Tang Dynasty is in great power, and King Wu's army is majestic. The Turks can learn from their mistakes. If they do n't take the initiative to make amends with the Tang Dynasty, Tubo will fall into the flames of war." The country is in danger of being destroyed!
What’s more, even the Central Plains dynasty took the initiative to lower their heads to pay tribute and make a marriage alliance when the country was in decline. Paying tribute and marriage to the Tang Dynasty is just an act of rights! If the Tubo territory and thousands of people can be preserved, what will happen? Why not!"
The Prime Minister of Tubo had a deep understanding of the culture of the Central Plains.
Imitating the Central Plains dynasty's act of paying tribute and marrying when the country was in decline is actually the best strategy for the current Tubo!
Nangri Lunzan had a gloomy face, sitting on the throne and deep in thought.
There was hesitation on his face, and his eyes kept flickering.
Above the court, all the civil and military ministers, after the initial shock and disbelief, all agreed with the Tibetan Prime Minister's strategy.
Today is different from the past. King Wu's army is at its peak, and they must avoid its sharp edge.
The ministers in the palace all looked at Nangri Lunzan with eager faces.
The time of two sticks of incense had passed, and Nangri Lunzan was still hesitating. Seeing this, the Tubo Emperor suddenly shouted loudly:
"Paying tribute and marrying only loses a little face. But if we don’t do this, we are in danger of destroying the country! Which is more important, face or family?
Zanpu, you are determined to unify Tubo and establish a unified country similar to the Central Plains Dynasty.
Now that the great cause has not been accomplished, the country will be destroyed. Are you willing?"
After the prime minister finished speaking, the civil and military ministers in the palace also said loudly one by one:
"What the Prime Minister said is true. Compared with the danger of destroying the country, mere appearance is nothing!"
"Zanpu, we all agree with what the Prime Minister said!"
"Under such circumstances, only paying tribute and making peace can keep Tubo safe."
"Please Zanpu adopt the policy of paying tribute to the prime minister and protecting the country by being pro-friendly!"
Seeing that the civil and military officials in the court were united in their opinions, and they all demanded tribute and marriage to ensure the safety of Tibet, Nangri Lunzan's heart trembled.
He knew that if he did not agree, what was waiting for him might be that he would be ignored.
In order to avoid talking to King Wu In the battle between the armies, these ministers would even overthrow him and establish a new Zanpu!
Exhaling heavily, Nangri Lunzan lowered his proud head and said slowly:"According to the words of the Prime Minister, I will go to the Great Tang Na Tribute and marriage! Immediately choose a beautiful and virtuous person from among my daughters and send him to Chang'an to marry the Emperor of Tang Dynasty."
The voice was heavy, extremely unwilling and helpless.
When the ministers in the court heard this, they all felt relieved.
"Zanpu was not in agreement with the Emperor of Tang Dynasty."
Suddenly, the voice of the Prime Minister of Tubo sounded.
Nangri Lunzan frowned and looked at the Prime Minister with a puzzled face, and said:"What does the Prime Minister mean by this? Just now you insisted on getting married to Datang."
The rest of the ministers also looked at the prime minister with doubts on their faces, wondering what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd.
A sly smile appeared on the corner of the Tibetan Prime Minister's mouth and said:"King Wu is the King of Side by Side, and he is also the King of Side by Side with Emperor Tang. Son of Heaven. Today, the relationship between Emperor Tang and Prince Wu is harmonious. I don’t see anything wrong with one country and two masters.
Tubo's payment of tribute and marriage was not to pay tribute to Chang'an, nor to make peace with the Tang emperor. Instead, he made good friends with King Wu, paid tribute to King Wu and got married.
By then, even if father and son are deeply in love, some estrangement and suspicion will inevitably arise in their hearts!"
Hearing this, Nangri Lunzan's eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at the Prime Minister of Tibet with joy:
"The Prime Minister wanted to provoke a father-son relationship between Emperor Tang and King Wu by paying tribute and marrying him! This plan is brilliant and wonderful!"_
