Chapter 1103 King Chu's Assist
"From now on, Tubo will belong to the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty will establish a protectorate in Tubo, and the first governor of the protectorate will be chosen from among us." When Lu Dongzan said this, it meant that he had no way out.
"Lu Dongzan, you accepted this kind of alliance?!" Buza couldn't help but widen his eyes after hearing such a request: "How can you accept it? How can you..."
"I haven't promised the King of Chu anything. I'm just repeating his words." Hearing this, Lu Dongzan frowned and continued, "His Royal Highness the King of Chu said that he knows the conflict between us ministers and the Bon master, and he knows our solution to this matter better, but he thinks that this matter should be dealt with sooner rather than later - there is no need to wait until we send people to India to study. He will let a great monk who has studied Buddhism in India for a long time - Master Xuanzang - come to Tubo to spread Buddhism, so as to change our predicament."
“Master Xuanzang?” Buza thought this was a really interesting story: “This eminent monk… is originally from the Tang Dynasty… OK, OK… The King of Chu really has a good plan…”
"But we can't refuse, right?" Lu Dongzan said this and suddenly sighed: "In fact, what really scares me is not the power of the Tang Dynasty, because no matter how powerful a dynasty is, it will eventually weaken.
But the King of Chu is different, very different." Lu Dongzan said this, and he looked deeply at Chi Yang, who was the most indignant among the four people opposite him: "If you carefully study the past of the King of Chu, you will find that every time he fought a war, he had a strong purpose.
Moreover, his purpose, most of the time, is so simple and direct that it is frightening - he just wants to destroy the country!
Eastern Turkestan was his first target.
Western Turks...After Moheduo Khan was captured by him, he was taken to Jinshan together with Jie Li Khan to offer sacrifices to the gods. In fact, from that time on, the demise of the Turks was doomed.
Later, His Royal Highness the King of Chu "burned the city in flames" in Qianquan City, but it was just a hasty conclusion after many years.
After that, he used Quan Gaisuwen to destroy Silla almost without bloodshed, and then cooperated with his father, the Tang Emperor Li Shimin, to take over Goguryeo and Baekje.
But you have to know that Quan Gaisuwen was almost forced into that desperate situation by His Royal Highness the King of Chu - he had fallen into the trap of the King of Chu when he first represented Goguryeo on a diplomatic mission to Chang'an.
At that time, the King of Chu was just a half-grown child, but his years of planning finally yielded fruitful results.
Have you ever thought about the terrifying plot and amazing patience hidden behind this?
Finally, I ask you to take a good look at which countries are left around the Tang Dynasty!
Haven't you discovered it yet?!
Nowadays, among the neighboring countries of the Tang Dynasty, if there is anyone who can still pose the greatest threat to the Tang Dynasty, it is our Tubo.
Tuyuhun?
If the King of Chu had not wanted to use Tuyuhun, Tuyuhun would have been destroyed long ago!
Therefore, the Tuyuhun has been able to survive until today. The king Murong Nuohebo and the great elder Yosuha should thank the King of Chu the most!
Because in the fifth year of Zhenguan, after the King of Chu won the Battle of Jinshan, the only reason why Tuyuhun could still exist was that His Majesty the King of Chu believed that they were still of use.
But now, when His Royal Highness the King of Chu believes that Tuyuhun should be utilized, extinction is the only outcome for this country! "When Lu Dongzan said this, his body couldn't stop shaking: "I know you are curious about why I suddenly changed my mind and didn't bring people to support Luoshui City, because after returning to my fiefdom, I summarized the past of Quan Gaisuwen and the King of Chu from the collected information.
Finally, I came to a conclusion - when it comes to cunning, ruthless means, and far-sighted strategies, no one in this world can compare to the King of Chu of the Tang Dynasty!
When he was only ten years old, standing on the Taiji Hall in Chang'an and kicking the Goguryeo deputy envoy named Gao Qi, he might have already thought of the ending for Goguryeo.
When I understood this, I couldn't help but wonder what kind of ending Tubo would have in the eyes of His Highness the King of Chu.
Now, the first direction of this ending has been placed before me and you.
You guys should think carefully. If we reject this outcome which seems to be decent for both parties at the moment, the next outcome given by His Royal Highness the King of Chu may be worse than the previous one.
And the saddest thing is, if we insist on seeking our own death, then we...will not only lose our own lives, but our respective families will also be doomed to decline from now on, and in the end...hundreds of thousands of people on the Tibetan Plateau will also be implicated because of our stubbornness..."
Lu Dongzan's eloquence is undoubtedly extraordinary.
And when he spoke these true words with his extraordinary eloquence, even people as wise as Buzha, as proud as Chiyang, and as stubborn as Sangsuo could not help but be deeply moved.
The three of them also began to waver at this moment.
But there was one exception.
“Prime Minister Lu Dongzan,” Yecha, who had always been Lu Dongzan’s ally, gave a completely opposite opinion at this moment: “Since you have said that the Tang Chu King is a very cunning guy... well... this is undoubtedly a huge contrast to our past impression of him... but I still want to believe your opinion.
But... as you said, this person is insidious and cunning. Then how can we know that there is no fraud in the conditions he offers?"
"——Because I am not interested in deceiving you." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu, who had been waiting in the main hall for a long time but received no news, finally could not bear it any longer and took the initiative to walk into this side hall.
Behind him, Zhang Zhenxuan and Li Chunfeng acted as guards on his left and right, with serious expressions.
"Yecha," in the side hall, His Royal Highness the King of Chu first glanced at Lu Dongzan, who looked a little surprised, and then said to Yecha, who looked a little panicked, "When have you ever seen a tiger deceive a lamb?"
"Since His Royal Highness the King of Chu compares himself to a tiger and regards us as lambs, why bother letting the fox Lu Dongzan come and try to persuade us lambs?" Chi Yang, the troublemaker, was very dissatisfied with His Royal Highness the King of Chu.
"You are... Chi Yang?" Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness the King of Chu pretended to be surprised, then smiled and walked up to the other party: "Oh... I really admire you..."
"Hmph..." Chi Yang snorted coldly and was about to continue speaking.
"Pah!" King Chu slapped him to the ground with a slap, "You are so rude to me! You called Lu Dongzan a fox? You mean he is a coward, flattering and cunning man, right? You bastard! Are you so bold?
If you are brave, then stand up and practice with me! Let's see if I can beat the shit out of you today!"
The anger of His Royal Highness the King of Chu undoubtedly made people like Buza feel terrified.
Even Chi Yang, after being slapped by His Royal Highness the King of Chu, had a buzzing sound in his head, so he couldn't hear clearly what His Royal Highness the King of Chu said after hitting him.
"Is he dissatisfied?" His Royal Highness the King of Chu turned to look at Lu Dongzan: "Lu Dongzan, tell me! Is he dissatisfied?!!!
As long as you say "I don't accept it", I will immediately destroy him!"
