Remember [67โ booksรท in one second.], wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
That's right, the person Bai Marom is referring to is none other than the Turgian Minister!
She can't help but pit this ally, now that the basin has been buckled on the body of the Tubo people, if you want to take off the basin smoothly, how can you do it without the cooperation of Da Zhou and Tuqishi?
Bai Marom bowed to Suo Ge and said, "Que Si Zhongjie intends to take the position of Khan and replace him, so he first killed the old Khan and blamed the Great Zhou. He also killed the princess and asked the concubine to replace her, so as to gain the support of Tibet. I'm sorry, before these things happened, Que Sizhong Festival had already notified Tubo. Although we in Tibet are not murderers, we are indeed to blame! โ
Que Si Zhongjie said angrily: "No...... It's not like this, you~ spewing blood! Clearly, clearly......"
Speaking of which, Que Sizhong was speechless for a while,
He understands that he has been cheated, but the specific causes and consequences are not very clear, and now he is really like a dumb person eating yellow lotus, and he can't say what he has to say!
Suo Ge would give him the opportunity to organize the language, and said loudly: "Everyone, the spirit of my father Khan's heaven is watching us, killing Que Si Zhongjie to avenge my father Khan!" โ
"Kill! Kill him! โ
Suoge's position is unstable, but the old khan Uzhile is a ~ common hero in the minds of the Turgish people, with strong appeal.
Suddenly, there were dozens of Turquoise nobles with sharp blades and rushed up!
"Help me!" Que Sizhongjie's complexion changed greatly, and he shouted loudly!
However, the general trend is that it is too late for the former allies to be cleared, who dares to save him? In an instant, Que Si Zhongjie was chopped into a pile of meat sauce.
Although it was an order given by himself, Que Si Zhongjie died like this. Suo Ge couldn't believe his eyes.
He secretly thought: It is amazing that the person who made himself like a thorn in his back and posed the greatest threat to his sweat position was simply killed by the shadow, right? How did that bloody hand get the effect? Cui Geng, the prime minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty, is really unpredictable, turning his hands into clouds and covering his hands for the ability of rain, and he can only be a friend in the future, not an enemy!
Of course, Suo Ge is also a masterpiece after all, and no matter how much he admires Cui Geng, it is unrealistic for him to completely turn his face with Tubo immediately.
He first said that Tuqishi and Tubo had no friendship with each other, and even if the Tubo people did not inform them of the matter of the Que Sizhong Festival, it was also the proper meaning of the question, and it was not a big deal, but the matter of the two countries becoming in-laws, so it was stopped.
Then, he immediately hugged the Thigh of the Turks, promised to marry the Turkic noblewoman Nur Ayi as Kedun, and asked Cui Geng to be the officiant.
In the end, the order was issued to purge the remnants of the Que Si Zhongjie.
As soon as Que Sizhong fell, among the Tuqi Shi people, there were not many people who opposed Suo Ge as Khan. In addition, the huge interests of dividing up the property of Que Sizhongjie's subordinates, Suo Ge's position has been completely consolidated.
He secretly betrayed his sincerity to Cui Geng, first of all, accepted the canonization of the Great Zhou court. Secondly, ask for harmony, don't ask for any princess, as long as it is a noble girl of the Tang Dynasty. In the end, he was willing to Chen Bing's border between Tubo and Tuqishi to be Cui Geng's strong backing.
Three days later, Cui Geng, as the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, presided over the marriage ceremony between Suo Ge and the Turkic noblewoman Nur Ayi.
At this point, this trip has come to a successful conclusion.
To tell the truth, before Guo Yuanzhen, he respected Cui Geng, but that was respect for the "prime minister of the dynasty", as for Cui Geng...... Then you can only "hehe".
The reason is very simple, how easy is it to convince a young man in his early thirties?
However, after Tuqi Shi and his party, the old man was completely convinced.
He secretly pondered, in vain he had been guarding the Western Regions for so many years, but this trip to the Raid Shi became an absolute supporting role, the gap between him and Cui Geng and Cui Erlang was too big, and he couldn't accept it! There are such heroes in the Great Zhou, if it is folded in Tubo, it will be a pity, this situation must not happen!
So, he solemnly said that he had an army of 200,000 under his command and was at the disposal of Cui Geng. Not only Chen Bing on the border between the two countries. And just wait for Cui Geng's order to attack Tubo and respond to Cui Geng.
In addition, Cui Geng's trip to Tuqi Shi also had an unexpected joy, that is, this case, in the territory of Tubo, set off an uproar~ waves.
Life on the plateau was difficult, and the people were particularly religious in their devotion to religion.
After the news of Cui Geng's "Buddha's case" came, the people of Tubo respected him like a god, and even built a temple for him.
Although this temple is not a magnificent temple, it is just some small temples less than one person high, and there is not much incense, but it is also very rare.
Of course, Cui Geng's trip to the Raid was not all positive results, and there was one thing that made him cry and laugh.
The key to this matter lies in the Tibetan noblewoman Bai Marom.
Originally, if Bai Marom's mission failed, he should have taken the Tubo people back to Tibet. However, this noble girl didn't know which tendon was wrong, not only did she not have any decadence, but she became interested in Cui Geng.
After a while, he said that he admired the culture of the Celestial Empire, and even admired the characters of the Celestial Empire; After a while, he said that he would be punished by the Tubo court after he went back, and asked Cui Xiang to protect him; After a while, he said that he was not willing to lose......
All in all, in short, I want to follow Cui Geng's side and turn back to Tibet together.
Cui Geng couldn't shirk it, so he had to go back to Lanzhou City with Bai Marom first, and then come in the direction of Tubo.
The etiquette of Tibet was very thoughtful, and as soon as they arrived in the territory, they were greeted by Tibetan officials with 200 cavalry.
This Tibetan official is about 30 years old, his name is Bo Ge Galeng, and his official residence is "Da Zhexie", which is probably equivalent to the servant of the Ministry of Rites in Tibet, and he is a child of a family, and he is very respectful to Cui Geng.
Strangely, however, the thin corrugated was almost completely blind to the white marom.
Along the way, Cui Geng found that Tubo's current national strength is very not to be underestimated, at least, along the way, there are government-run post stations to provide food and transfer horses. With the vast and sparsely populated nature of Tibet, this is very commendable.
After traveling for more than 20 days, he finally entered the city of Lhasa.
Cui Geng raised his eyes to look over, but saw that although this city was not as prosperous as Luoyang, Chang'an, the people in the city were ruddy, hurried, and full of positive atmosphere. He knew that at this time, the fortunes of the Tibetan country were in full swing, and he did not dare to despise it.
Bai Marom smiled, his voice was like a yellow bird, and said: "When Cui Xiang first arrived in Lhasa, how did he feel about this city?" โ
"Well, that's good. There are just two points that the official is not used to. โ
"But what about those two points?"
Cui Geng pointed to his cheek and said, "First, I saw many good little ladies who painted their faces red, and I regretted it." โ
"Hee-hee, this is what Cui Xiang doesn't know." Bai Marom said with a smile: "My Tibetan custom is to paint my face with ochre, so the Tibetan people are also called "red-faced". โ
"Oh? Is it? Then Baima little lady, why didn't you paint your face with ochre? โ
Bai Marom tilted his head and said playfully: "Then such a slave family, does Cui Xiang like it?" โ
Cui Geng was a little uncomfortable by her fiery gaze, and said vaguely: "Uh...... Everyone has a love for beauty, and this official is also an ordinary man, how can he be an exception? โ
"Cui Xiang said this, the slave family is flattered." Bai Marom said: "Actually, the slave family doesn't paint their faces, which is related to Princess Wencheng. After she married to Tibet, she was very displeased with Zampu's face. When Zampu found out, he ordered that no more face painting was allowed in the whole country. However, how can this kind of folk custom be reversed overnight? Nowadays, there are still many people who continue to apply face, and there are fewer men and more women. โ
Cui Gengdao: "For the sake of the beloved, to change the customs of the whole country, it seems that the ancestor Zampu and Princess Wencheng are really husband and wife." Some people say that the status of Princess Wencheng is under Princess Qizun, I am afraid that it is ......"
"Cui Protector, please call the shots for the little monk!"
Before Cui Geng's words were finished, all of a sudden, four or five monks, "poof", knelt down in front of Cui Geng's team!
Cui Protector? What's going on?
Cui Geng scratched his head and secretly wondered: The Tubo people also complained to their buddies? My name Cui Qingtian is so effective?
