In the Secretariat, a group of civil servants left and stood under the eaves. At this moment, the deep voices of words came from the Secretariat, which were Xu Jingzong and Fang Xiang talking.

The sound seemed very hazy when it came outside, and there was a rumbling thunder that blew up and flickered in the Secretariat.

There are storms outside the Secretariat, and the heavy rain is like God pouring water, and the rain is roaring.

At this moment, under the roof of the Secretariat, the crowd was divided into two groups, one of which was the officials of the Ministry of Rites headed by Li Yi's mansion.

On the other side is the Secretariat's civil servant who became the leader of Tang Shanshi and Zhang Xing.

The two parties were still angry, and Tang Shanshi's black-eyed green eyes were still aching. Seeing the other party smile frivolously, he shouted angrily: "Li Yifu, don't be arrogant in your article!"

Upon hearing this, Li Yifu stepped forward and sarcastically said, "You have been dealing with the Ministry of Rites in everything. I have been waiting for a long time! Don't bully people too much."

"It's your Ministry of Rites that is aggressive!"

"You fart!" Li Yifu immediately took another step forward and punched the other party in the face.

"You mob!" Tang Shanshi shouted angrily, covering his other eye with pain, with a little crying voice.

"Who do you think is a mob!"

This sentence fell directly into the pain of many civil servants of the Ministry of Rites. Originally, most of the people in the Ministry of Rites were defeated in the imperial examination and were taken in by the Ministry of Rites.

This is a violation of everyone's rebellion.

Li Yifu, who was already a humble man, rose from his heart and shouted: "Brothers! Fight me!"

"ah!"

The two sides fought again, and the eaves were no longer enough to satisfy the current battlefield, and everyone fought in the rain.

A group of civil servants wrestled together in the heavy rain, and both sides leaned on their official uniforms to tell whether they were their own people.

Li Yifu punched and kicked, showing his grace of entering the court in the rain.

When His Majesty returned to Chang'an City, the thunderstorm also stopped.

Li Shimin was drinking tea and sat by the stove to drive away the cold. He listened to the eunuch's report beside him and frowned: "The Ministry of Rites fought with the Secretariat again?"

Eunuch Wang replied: "After the rain stopped, they gave up and asked the people from the Imperial Medical Office to see the wounded."

"Oh..." Li Shimin sighed with grief and instructed: "All those who participated in this fight were punished and thought about their mistakes. If they violated them again, I will be punished severely."

"Here."

Eunuch Wang hurriedly left Ganlu Palace to pass the message.

Soon, the guards outside the hall came to report, "Your Majesty, Fang Xiang and Shangshu Xu are here."

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Please come in."

After telling His Majesty about Nanzhao, the next day the court summoned the envoy of Nanzhao.

The court still agreed to send troops to Nanzhao, but Tian Khan meant to go to Jiannan Road to increase troops first and send officials to investigate the situation in Nanzhao.

The envoy of Nanzhao Duluo, after a long period of court discussion, was very tired at this moment. He sat in the inn and kept pouring tea into his mouth.

Songtsen Gampo, who also lived in the inn for a long time, sat at his table and smiled and said, "You don't have to worry too much."

Duluo was still wearing the clothes of Nanzhao people. He looked anxious and said, "Tian Khan did not say that he would send troops to Nanzhao, but Tian Khan was willing to rush to Persia farther away."

With some anger in his words, Songtsen Gampo comforted him and said, "I heard from the news from the people in the court that Tian Khan has sent people to Jiannan Road to increase troops. If the situation is true, he will also rush to help."

After saying that, Songtsen Gampo poured him a bowl of wine.

Everyone was an envoy living in Chang'an City. Duluo admired the Tubo Zamp. Even if he was in Chang'an City, he came to Chang'an for the peace of Tubo.

He whispered, "Zamp is a very powerful person."

Songtsen Gampo smiled and said, "There is a saying in the Central Plains that it is born at the wrong time. Now the Tang Dynasty is very powerful, and there are too many capable people in the Tang Dynasty."

Duluo swallowed the wine and sighed: "After a year of communication, what else should Tian Khan wait for? All our tribe members are gone."

This is a helpless person. Songtsen Gampo wanted to give the helpless weak person in front of him as a gift to a very important person.

After hesitating for a while, he said, "The messenger meets me, maybe he can relieve your current worries."

"Can anyone help Nanzhao?"

Songtsen Gampo patted his shoulder and stood up, signaling him to follow.

By the Weishui River, Zhang Yang was taking his daughter to count the saplings just planted by the Weishui River.

Listening to her counting, Zhang Yang corrected: "You just counted to one hundred, why did you return to eighty?"

"Um?"

She looked back and counted again.

"County Marquis, Songtsen Gampo is here."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yang looked towards the entrance of the village and saw Songtsen Gampo standing not far away with him.

Zhang Yang took his daughter and Xiong Da forward, asked with his hands in his arms, "Zanpu, why are you here again? Are you not afraid of being bombed to death?"

Songtsen Gampo smiled brightly and said, "No, artillery doesn't have eyes, but people all have eyes."

He also introduced: "This is Duluo, the envoy of Nanzhao."

Xiao Qingqing knew Songzan Gampo, but she didn't like Songzan Gampo. She looked a little contempt and sat cross-legged on the bear's back with her hands in her arms.

Duluo immediately knelt down and bent down toward the muddy land and shouted: "I would like to ask the county marquis to save Nanzhao."

Zhang Yang turned his back and refused to look at him.

The other party did not reply, Duluo frowned and looked at Songtsen Gampo. This action was what he asked for. According to his words, he would kneel down immediately for help.

Seeing that Zhang Yang ignored the Nanzhao envoy and was about to leave, Songtsen Gampo stepped forward and said, "Marquis of County, this is a good opportunity."

"Zanpu, I am just a county marquis, and now I am just a Taichang Temple Minister. I can't do anything to save Nanzhao."

"The county marquis really can't do it." Songtsen Gampo said again.

"Then what else do you bring?"

Seeing Zhang Yang's expression unhappy, Songzan Gampo hurriedly said, "The county marquis, actually, letting him come to Mount Li to kneel down and ask for help, not to save Nanzhao."

At this moment, even the envoy of Nanzhao Duluo was surprised. He looked at Songtsen Gampo in confusion when he heard this, occasionally with anger and feeling deceived.

"Zamp, I'm very busy."

"What can the county marquis be busy with? The heavy rain has just passed, and the autumn harvest will be delayed for a few days."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! Zhang Yang glanced at the wheat in the field and nodded, "So I don't want to chat with Zanpu, it's too boring."

Songtsen Gampo whispered: "The Ministry of Rites has already made arrangements for Nanzhao."

He looked back at the Nanzhao envoy. This man was not tall because he had just leaned over and kowtowed, and there was still some mud on his forehead.

The man's expression is very complicated now, with fear, anxiety, and anger.

This face is very exciting.

"Zanpu also wants to interfere in Nanzhao?"

Before he could reply, Zhang Yang said again: "I advise Zanpu not to make trouble. If the court arrangements are broken, Zanpu will be punished."

"The county marquis misunderstood, and Tubo will not interfere."

After saying that, Songtsen Gampo helped Duluo up who was still kneeling on the ground and said, "In the past two years in Chang'an City, I often read classics, and I also know about Nanzhao."

He walked back and forth two steps and said, "Nanzhao is now divided into four small tribes, and Duluo is located in Nanzhao in Weishan."

Duluo nodded constantly.

Of course, there are classics about Nanzhao in Chang'an City, most of which were left by the Sui Dynasty. The title of Nanzhao cannot be regarded as a country name, but a tribe name. Of course, no one stopped him, claiming to be a small country to congratulate the Tang Dynasty.

As Songtsen Gampo said, in the other end of the Tang Dynasty, there were several other edicts in addition to Nanzhao.

It has been decades since the record was recorded back then, and Zhang Yang didn’t know what it had developed over the past period.

Just know that in Kunchi or now it should be called Erhe?

There are other small tribes around that big lake, namely Yuexizhao, Langqiongzhao, and Shilangzhao.

Nanzhao is just one of them.

Songzan Cadre said again: "Don't the Tang Dynasty want to unify the south?"

Zhang Yang smiled, smiling a little happy. After all, Songtsen Gampo unified the Tubo tribes. He has been precipitating for so many years in Chang'an City, and has been crazily supplementing various classics and knowledge in Chang'an City.

He unified the Tubo tribe back then, and felt that the Tang Dynasty should take this opportunity to unify that area.

"Since Zamp thought of it, the court will also think of it."

"Tian Khan has already planned this way?"

Zhang Yang shook his head and said, "Tian Khan is a benevolent and wise king. How could such a wise king attack those small tribes that are not violated? This is not the style of our Tang Dynasty."

Songtsen Gampo said again: "Then let Duluo lead his troops to the Khan of Heaven to unify Nanzhao."

Duluo was trembling at the moment. He seemed to hear something amazing as he listened to the words of the county marquis and Zanpu.

Zhang Yang whispered: "So it was very wise for Tian Khan to ask Zanpu to come to Chang'an City. If you stay in Tubo, the Tubo people will always be a big trouble for me, the Tang Dynasty. I am a little lucky at this moment, and I am glad that I made my decision at the beginning."
