After a friendly exchange with Gao Jifu, the two parties quickly reached an intention to cooperate.
As for Zhang Xuansu's sons or apprentices mentioned by Li Tai, Gao Jifu only regarded them as a joke and would not really recommend them.
After all, the relationship between Gao Jifu and Li Tai is not that of superior and subordinate, but strictly speaking, it is just a cooperative relationship.
Like this time, Li Tai proposed sending Confucian scholars to open Chinese schools in Tubo to strengthen the connection between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty.
For Honglu Temple, this is to further strengthen the responsibilities of Honglu Temple, which is very consistent with the concept of education that Confucianism has always promoted.
If this is a personal behavior, then go ahead if you like it, or forget it if you don’t.
But when this matter rises to the national level, anyone with a certain political consciousness will realize the importance of this matter.
Just spreading the culture of the Tang Dynasty is very necessary for the Tang Dynasty to reorganize China, and spread it to the surrounding circle.
How should I put it? It’s like your ancestors have been blessed. Now that you have regained your family status, shouldn’t you tell the people around you?
And this kind of thing really doesn’t happen to Li Tai’s agricultural school, mainly because the level of the agricultural school is too low!
For this kind of country-to-country exchange, even if the top talents of the Tang Dynasty are not sent, at least an elite should be sent there.
Students who graduated from agricultural colleges were targeted at petty officials, and their education in Confucian classics was close to zero.
Under such circumstances, if Confucians are not allowed to do this kind of thing, how can we let agricultural students do it? Can the Tang Dynasty afford such shame?
Therefore, it would be fine if this matter has never been brought up, but if it is brought up, it must be Confucianism.
To be honest, Li Tai was rather small-minded, but in the final analysis, Li Tai could make Confucianism uncomfortable, but he could not eradicate Confucianism.
Even Li Tai would not eradicate Confucianism, because completely denying Confucianism would eventually require new doctrines to replace Confucianism.
When the time comes when Buddhism takes advantage of it, I will cry to death. As for Taoism, it is too advanced and not suitable as a textbook for elementary school students.
At least in this era, it is definitely not too much to talk about the lighthouse theory of the seventh century in Confucianism.
But this is not what I want.
Therefore, Li Tai wanted to try to reform Confucianism so that Confucian students could stop focusing on taking exams in the Tang Dynasty and rely on the knowledge gained from the imperial examinations.
Although compilation is really delicious, you still have to have a dream. Can’t the world be so big to spread Confucianism?
Therefore, Li Tai wanted to cultivate a group of people who, like missionaries, would go to various places to spread Confucianism.
Even if these people know a little technology and some knowledge, there is no problem. The most important thing is that they must be willing to go out of China and go to spread Confucianism around the world. It doesn't matter even if they wholeheartedly fight for other nations.
It’s just that when they return home, they need to know how to write papers or articles to prove that they have really been spreading Confucianism over the years.
Mainly through their articles and papers, future generations can clearly understand the local situation. Then naturally there are no locals, only new Han people who are learning Han culture and language!
With this idea in mind, Li Tai wanted to try it in Tubo and conduct a simple experiment.
As long as the Confucian scholars could not help but push Tibet to reform in the direction of the Tang Dynasty, no matter how successful or failed the reform was, as long as the imprint of Han culture was left, then in the future, if they fought against Tibet again and won, it would not be like this.
It needs to be managed, but the management cost is too high. It needs to be plundered, but the value of plundering is too low. It’s useless! It’s so useless!
To put it simply, I need someone to help Tubo how to exploit its own people, how to collect wealth, and how to learn Chinese. It would be better if it can cause internal strife...
Apart from Confucians, who else can help me do these things well?
It's like being behind doesn't necessarily mean you'll be beaten, but being behind can bring wealth, so it doesn't matter who you beat.
All in all, for Li Tai, this incident was just an idea and an experiment. It would be even more satisfying if Zhang Xuansu's children or students could be sent to Tibet along the way.
Li Tai and Gao Jifu discussed the matter, and Gao Jifu sent Li Tai away from Honglu Temple.
As for when to mention this matter, it will naturally have to wait until the Tibetan envoy comes next time.
After all, it was a defeated country, and it was a basic etiquette to come to pay tribute every year, so Li Tai was not worried about whether Tibet would come.
Li Tai did not stay outside for long, and went directly back to Prince Wei's Mansion with his personal guards.
At this time, a row of sharp crossbow arrows suddenly shot towards Li Tai from a high building. Even Li Tai did not expect that someone would be so crazy and shoot the prince in the street. How many lives could be buried with him!
However, the speed of this crossbow was so fast that Li Tai couldn't react in time.
However, Lu Anshou, who had been guarding him, threw Li Tai directly, and the row of crossbow bolts hit Lu Anshou directly!
"King Wei, you're fine...hiss!" Lu Anshou breathed a sigh of relief looking at Li Tai's appearance, but he neighed again.
The person who made the sneak attack was also annoyed at this moment, and immediately retreated without any trace of nostalgia!
"There are assassins! Protect King Wei!" Zu Changming only reacted at this moment and gave the order decisively, looking at Li Tai!
"Chang Ming, you lead a team of people to chase. It doesn't matter if your hands or feet are broken, as long as you catch them alive!" Li Tai gritted his teeth!
"No!" Zu Changming immediately led a team of people to pursue without any hesitation.
"The doctor's office, go to the doctor's office! Zhang Ming, go and invite the old immortal Sun!" Li Tai said even more excitedly.
"King Wei, I have a request!" Lu Anshou said to Li Tai with great difficulty.
"Hold it in!" Li Tai said to Lu Anshou, "If you have any requests, please wait until Dr. Sun has cured you!"
"Uh..." The look on Lu Anshou's face was even weirder, and he finally said with a bit of tenacity,
"Can you let me hold your horse? The crossbow arrow didn't penetrate the armor, so I pulled it out, but the armor on my butt is not thick enough. I can't ride the horse now!"
"..." When Li Tai heard this, the emotions that had been brewing for a while disappeared in an instant.
He looked at Lu Anshou with very different eyes and said, "That burst of crossbow arrows just hit your butt, right?!"
"Fortunately, the buttocks are thick!" Lu Anshou said with emotion, "Otherwise, the bones would be injured!"
"...You can ride my horse!" Li Tai didn't know what to say for a moment.
Li Tai decisively returned his horse to Lu Anshou and took Lu Anshou to the nearest hospital.
Although the doctors in the hospital are not the best, the doctors in the hospital are more or less from the medical camp, and they are quite experienced in dealing with such crossbow injuries.
It's just that the injury was poisonous. If he was really shot, it would be fatal. However, this time he was only shot in the buttocks. After cutting off the rotten flesh and applying medicine, he recovered for almost two months, and he became a good man again.
As for now, let’s just lie down in bed for a while in the past two months!
"King Wei, if a thief dares to attack the first-class prince on the streets of Chang'an, we will immediately contact the Jinwu Guards to block the four gates, and then report to the saints to capture the culprit!" Lu Anshou advised Li Tai.
"Wait a minute! Let's see if Zu Changming has caught the other party!" Seeing that Lu Anshou was fine, Li Tai regained his senses and said,
"If you don't catch the other party, you can naturally make trouble as much as you want, but if you catch the other party, it won't necessarily happen!"
Li Tai waited in the hospital for a while, and soon saw Zu Changming and others appearing in front of Li Tai with a tall and strong Turkic man pressed down on them.
He had been tied up tightly, and even his mouth was gagged with linen.
Zu Changming took out the crossbow and said to Li Tai, "The markings on this crossbow have been erased, but the workmanship should be from the army. Many crossbows in the army are registered. If one is missing, it will definitely be known!"
Li Tai looked at the hospital and said in a deep voice, "Since we've caught him, let's bring him back for trial. There's no need to make a fuss. Just pretend it's nothing."
In addition, we sent someone to stay and take care of Anshou, I'm afraid he won't be able to move around easily these days!"
"No!" Zu Changming nodded in agreement after hearing Li Tai's words. Looking at the way Lu Anshou was lying in the hospital, to be honest, Zu Changming really wanted to laugh, but now is really not the time to laugh.
.
Soon, Li Tai sent the Turkic man to the secret room of the Wei Palace.
Li Tai called Bai He and asked her to take notes. Li Tai said to Bai He:
"The fact that I was assassinated is of great importance, and I don't want other people to know too many details.
There are not many people I can trust, and you are one of them, so it’s up to you to take the notes!”
When Bai He heard Li Tai's words, a flash of dimness flashed in his eyes, but he still nodded seriously.
At this time, Li Tai said to his bodyguard: "Zhang Ming, beat him for half an hour. I don't want to listen to him for this half hour!"
It's such a big thing to assassinate me, if he says everything at once, how can I take it out on you!"
"No!" Zhang Ming immediately waved the whip and started beating him without any hesitation. When the whip fell on him, he saw that he was standing hard. Except for breathing a little heavier, he didn't even scream.
!
Finally, half an hour passed, and the Turkic man was still awake, with a red face and ears, as if he wanted to say something, but at this moment, his mouth was stuffed with linen, and he couldn't say a word anyway.
"It's only half an hour!" Li Tai said slowly, "The whip is soaked in salt water, and it's enough to beat for another half hour!"
The Turkic man's eyes widened, and he hesitated in his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but was blocked and couldn't utter a single word.
However, at this moment, Zu Changming came to the room, holding a piece of information in his hand, and handed it to Li Taidao,
"My subordinate asked the painter to take his appearance to Honglu Temple to check, and found that this man had been hiding among the Tibetan prisoners for many days, waiting for an opportunity.
Later, information about the Turks was retrieved based on his appearance, and he was recognized as a member of the Tuli Khan's younger brother, named Naduo!"
"He's a member of the association, so that's easy to handle. This person is greedy, reckless, and fond of luxury. If I give money to the association, I believe that his nine tribes will be surrendered by the association.
I will let your nine tribes accompany you. Of course, if you are willing, you can watch your nine tribes die in front of you, and then you die last!" Li Tai said calmly while looking at the flower in front of him.
At this moment, when Naduo heard Li Tai's words, his whole body began to struggle crazily.
He really didn't expect that Li Tai had no intention of asking from the beginning to the end, and he wanted to kill the nine tribes as soon as he opened his mouth!
However, at this moment, Li Tai looked at the tied Duo and said calmly: "Of course, I can kindly give you a chance to speak. Your speaking this time will determine whether you will die alone or your whole family.
You heard me clearly!"
Li Tai glanced at Zhang Ming, who stepped forward and pulled out the linen from the man's mouth. Li Tai said calmly:
"You can go ahead and tell me what you know. You should be able to speak Chinese!"
"I don't know who hired me. He was just a young man with a shrill voice and a bit of makeup. He gave me ten gold coins, your portrait, and the crossbow!" Naduo!
He speaks average Chinese, but very clearly,
"He asked me to wait among the Tibetan slaves. One day, you will go to Honglu Temple and find the opportunity to ambush you."
"I feel insulted!" Li Tai suppressed his anger and continued: "I want a specific time? When did that person contact you!"
"The third day of the Lunar New Year!"
“Morning or afternoon”
"Morning!"
…
Li Tai slowly asked for details, from the style of the man's clothes, the smell of makeup, and even the man's tone and walking posture. He kept digging into various details. Li Tai stopped and said, "What do you want?
Way to die!"
"Ah~" Naduo didn't react after listening to Li Tai's question.
"You are just a discarded child who is used and thrown away. Since your role has been exhausted, it would be better for everyone if you die!"
Li Tai said calmly, "The person you are correcting must be a member of the palace. Since he is a member of the palace, then don't pursue it!"
"You...won't you take revenge!" Naduo looked at Li Tai and couldn't help shouting, "He wants to kill you, kill you!"
"Bai He, burn all these records in front of him!" Li Tai said calmly.
Bai He couldn't help but be startled when he heard Li Tai's words, but he also put them all in front of this man, and put all the papers recorded one by one into the brazier and burned them all.
"You, what on earth are you going to do!" Naduo didn't understand Li Tai at all, and even yelled at Li Tai crazily,
"You don't believe me. What I say is true. It's really true! Please let my people go and don't kill them!"
"I believe what you said is true. As such, I ask you to go on your journey as if you haven't said anything to me today!"
Li Tailuo said with sadness: "Who wouldn't do it for their own blood relatives!"
Li Tai looked around at the crowd and said calmly, "You are not allowed to say a single word about today's events, and you are not allowed to take any paper out.
Baihe! Let's go, and the others will send this one on his way, and tell the public that he was too seriously injured during the arrest and died as soon as he was interrogated!"
Naduo looked at Li Tai's departure with full of incomprehension, and even felt that his behavior was extremely ridiculous and desperate.
But Li Tai knew very well how an assassin could know the identity of the main messenger. All he needed to do was guide the target to the palace.
For the rest, I relied on my diary and Bai He's memory.
But as long as mother or Aye want to prove that Li Chengqian is innocent, they can only work hard to investigate.
If they don't investigate further, they may leave the blame to Li Chengqian.
As for myself, it was for the sake of my blood relatives that I chose to be a tortoise despite my blood and tears!
This is a huge loss! It’s time to report back to Luoyang tomorrow!
