Chapter 1 Looking at the Sword (Part 3)

Chapter 1 Looking at the Sword (Part 3)

In the Loulan tribe, Wang Xun's heart endurance had long been sharpened by the old fox Kang Zhongxin. He knew that these tribal leaders were masters who didn't care about face as long as they had an advantage to take advantage of. Therefore, even if Axi died,

No matter how fast Da changed his face at this moment, he didn't feel anything sudden. He nodded and responded with a smile: "King Fenghua said this, it's obvious. After all, you and His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty are relatives, so don't bother.

Who else do you want to trouble? Even if you are really too old to take care of things, won't you still have your princes and grandsons? Logically speaking, they are also my in-laws, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and it would be most appropriate for them to patrol the Western Regions for the Tang Dynasty!

"

"That's it, that's it!" Seeing that Wang Xun was so considerate, Ashilanda was so happy that his face bloomed.

After giving the other party enough benefits, Wang Xun smiled and took the opportunity to ask, "This envoy is new here and doesn't know much about the situation here. So which heroes are still interested in the Tang Dynasty and which short-sighted people are no longer worth wasting on?"

Please give me some advice from King Fenghua!!"

"Old Su Lun, the Lord of Mulu City, must have his heart set on the Tang Dynasty." Axilanda Khan looked at Mulu Prince Su Shi, who had already pricked up his ears to eavesdrop, and introduced with a smile, "There is also the Lord of Dongcao City.

Hey, it was established by the Tang Dynasty back then, and I still remember your majesty’s kindness in caring for you. Then there is Aslan, the King of Parthia. His father and brother were both killed by the cannibal. If he had the opportunity to take revenge, he would definitely not let it go. But

The nearest Zhezhi to the city is Juchebishi, the leader of the puppet Dawan Kingdom. He was the one who colluded with the cannibals to oppose General Gao Xianzhi. After that, the whole country followed the Tianfang Sect. Therefore, the angels did not have to go to him.

Go away, lest this person secretly murder you in order to claim credit and reward from the big food master!"

"Oh!" Wang Xun suddenly realized, and gently cupped his hands towards Asilanda, "If King Fenghua hadn't reminded me, I would have almost sent myself into the tiger's mouth. Since the pseudo-lord of Dawan is so hateful, I will not

Give him no chance. As soon as my Anxi army arrives, we will drive him away immediately. But where is Zhengshuo of Dawan Kingdom now? Does King Fenghua have any news about him?!"

"My Great Khan is the only direct bloodline of the Dawan royal family!"

"Ju Chebi Shi stole the throne from father and son for many years. My family couldn't bear to see the lives on both sides of the Yaocha River in ruins, so I tolerated him again and again!" Before Asilanda could speak, several nobles around him started shouting loudly.

Dayuan was destroyed by the Turks in the Sui Dynasty, and the bloodline of its rulers had long been slaughtered. Whether it was Juche Bishi, who now claimed to be the ruler of Dayuan, or Ashilanda, who clamored for the Tang Dynasty to uphold justice for him, both

Belonging to one of the nine surnames of Zhaowu, he is of genuine Turkic descent. It can be said that he has not even the slightest relationship with the royal family of the King of Dawan. But since Asilanda and his ministers are so loud, Wang Xun just goes with the flow and marches to the east.

He cupped his hands and said loudly: "It is the responsibility of the Tang Dynasty to the vassal country to cut off the traitors and help the upright Shuo. After my envoy returns, I will inform your majesty of the matter in its entirety. Don't worry, your majesty will definitely tell you the truth.

Please give King Hua justice!"

"In this case, Xiao Wang would like to thank Your Majesty for your kindness in advance!" Ashilanda didn't know how to be humble at all, so he immediately knocked the bricks and hammered the wall.

On the contrary, his arrogance was precious. When he saw his lord acting so eagerly, he felt something was wrong in his heart. He walked forward with a smile and saluted Wang Xun, "Bahan is a small and weak country. I want to gain a foothold in the river in the future.

We still have to rely on the support of the Tang Dynasty. However, our kings and ministers dare not let down the favor of the Celestial Empire. When the king's army marches westward, they will wear armor and hold guns to march forward for the king!"

"For more than a hundred years, anyone who has failed me in the Tang Dynasty will not be betrayed by me in the Tang Dynasty." Wang Xun turned away half of his body and bowed in return with the courtesy of a superior to his subordinates, "Xiang Zhang is a well-known Confucian scholar.

You should know that what I said is true!"

"Of course!" Ba Han, the great minister, Zhang Guogui, nodded solemnly. In the more than 130 years from the Zhenguan period to the present, the Tang Dynasty has indeed behaved like a loyal elder towards the vassal states that voluntarily surrendered to him. "That's right.

Because of this, I did not dare to lose to the Tang Dynasty when I conquered the Han Dynasty. In the future, the king's army will march westward, even if it concentrates its forces to deal with the big food bandits. For such small things as expelling the Dawan puppet king Juchebishi, as long as the king's army marches westward,

If you are willing to support me with some armor, staff, and equipment, I can do it for you, but I really don’t dare to bother Master Wang too much!”

"Yeah!" Wang Xun frowned slightly. The Tang Dynasty conquered the entire Dawan Kingdom and gave it to Asilanda, and Asilanda led his own people to conquer the country. On the surface, the results look similar, but in essence

But it was completely different. After looking at Zhang Baogui carefully, he planned to brush off the problem first, "If King Fenghua has such ambitions, I, the Tang Dynasty, will certainly be happy to see it. However, I don't know much about military matters, so I'll let him know when the time comes.

King Fenghua should take the initiative to propose it to General Feng Changqing. I believe he is also willing to fulfill King Fenghua’s reputation!”

"Looking at the angel's figure and demeanor, it is clear that he is a general who knows all the battles!" Zhang Guowei's eyes were poisonous, and he revealed Wang Xun's identity in one sentence.

"A gentleman has six skills. Hasn't the Prime Minister never heard of it?" Wang Xun shook his head and grinned, "I am indeed a general, but my path is to take the imperial examination. It's just that my family's martial arts skills have not been left behind, so it seems

He looks more like a soldier when he goes up!"

There was no flaw in this excuse. Zhang Baoguo was stunned, feeling very unwilling. Just when he was about to seek a breakthrough in other aspects, Song Wu slowly walked over and said softly to him.

He bowed his head and asked with a smile: "Song Wu, the commander of the guards, has met the Prime Minister. I just heard the Prime Minister speak with a slight Hebei accent. I wonder if there is any relationship between the Prime Minister and the Zhang family in Qinghe?"

The Zhang family in Qinghe was a famous family in the Tang Dynasty, and their ancestor was Zhang Liang, the Marquis of the Han Dynasty. Song Wu asked this question, which was equivalent to putting gold foil on his face. How could he be rejected? Immediately, Zhang Guobao smiled and was very proud.

He admitted: "Zhang has little talent and little knowledge. He is in his sixties but has accomplished nothing. It really disgraces the reputation of his ancestors. I wonder why General Yuwen would ask this question?"

"It turns out that he was the Hou Hou who laid the foundation for the Han Dynasty for more than 400 years. No wonder he is so outstanding in his knowledge and experience. King Fenghua has Zhang Gong as his assistant, and he will surely establish Xuanzhao and Taiwu's foundation in the future. Above the Qing Dynasty, Zhang

Prime Minister Yi Shao must be as famous as Wang and Duke Cui!" Song Wu continued to flatter the other party, but during the conversation, he clearly distinguished the differences between Hu and Han.

The ancestors of the former Qin Dynasty, Emperor Xuanzhao, Fu Jian, and Emperor Taiwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Tuoba Tao, both unified the northern part of the Central Plains and established their immortal reputations. Under both of them, there were Han ministers like Wang Meng and Cui Hao who worked hard to make suggestions for them.

However, throughout his life, Wang Meng tried his best to prevent Fu Jian from leading his troops south to attack the Southern Jin Dynasty, which was in peace. Cui Hao also tried his best to fight for the rights and interests of the Han people in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and in the end he died because of it.

In contrast, Zhang Baogui, the so-called Liu Hou, never forgot to seek benefits for the foreigners from the Tang Dynasty, which seemed a bit ashamed of his ancestors. Therefore, as soon as Song Wu finished speaking, Zhang Guobao's face was already flushed with blood.

Zi. thought for a while, then held up his hands and said, "I would like to give you some good advice from my little brother. If such a day comes, Zhang will definitely regard Wang and Cui Ergong as his lifelong role models!"

After that, he didn't dare to continue to argue with Wang Xun, so he found an excuse and stepped aside.

Although Asilanda can speak Tang dialect fluently, he is not as familiar with the history of the Central Plains as Zhang Baogui. Therefore, he did not understand the allusions in Song Wu dialect at all. Seeing his own

The Prime Minister was defeated after just a few words. He knew in his heart that it was impossible to get more from Wang Xun today. He smiled and said loudly: "If we can unify Dawan, I will definitely burn incense to the east every day."

, Thank you for your majesty's support. In the future, not only will I not forget it, but also future generations will always be grateful for the kindness of the heaven. I hope that the angel can express this feeling for me when he returns to the court!"

"That's natural!" Wang Xun smiled slightly, as if the other party's request was just a piece of cake for him, "In the future, I would like to issue a seal to the King of Dayuan on behalf of the emperor in the ancient palace of Zhezhi City!"

"At that time, I will definitely bring the best drinks and the most beautiful women to entertain the angels!" Ashilanda waved his hand vigorously and ended the bargaining with a loud laugh, "But today, please forgive me for the angels. Don't be dissatisfied.

The wine I drink is not strong enough, and the dancer is not gorgeous enough! Come, serve the wine, play music, and wash away the dust of the angels of the Tang Dynasty!"

The luthiers and dancers who had been waiting outside the door for a long time filed in and started playing vigorously in the palace hall. Ashilanda grabbed Wang Xun's arm, forcibly pulled him up and sat down with him.

Xiang Zhanggui asked Song Wu and sat in the distinguished position next to Asilanda to continue discussing Confucian scriptures. The other nobles from Bukhan also approached Yu Wenzhi and Su Shenxing according to their own ranks.

Waiting, handing over candles and enjoying the singing and dancing. The atmosphere in the entire hall quickly rose to the peak of joy.

"Since the angel has come with a secret, he must hide it and not reveal it too early!" After three rounds of drinking, Ashilanda put his arm around Wang Xun's shoulders and took the initiative to share the other's worries, "I heard that there are several merchants who don't know what they are doing.

He actually failed the angel's kindness and left early. These guys who only care about money are all very clever. Instead of taking a chance and betting that they don't see any flaws, it's better..."

He grabbed the meat-cutting knife with his other hand and cut it hard on the back of the steamed sheep in front of him. "Only the dead have the most severe mouths..."

"No need. Thank you King Fenghua for reminding me." Wang Xun shook his head and declined with a smile, "Except for General Feng Changqing, even in the Anxi Army, there are not many people who know the purpose of this envoy's trip. What about a few ordinary traders?

Maybe you can guess it! At most, I don’t think I’m a businessman!”

"I remember there is an old saying in the Celestial Dynasty that those who achieve great things will not care about small changes!" Ashilanda obviously drank too much, Nie continued to insist with squinting drunken eyes, "If your envoy can't be cruel, you might as well leave it to me.

The brothers under the king will do it for you! It is common for a few people to disappear in the Gobi Desert. It will definitely not be involved..."

"It's really not necessary!" Wang Xun's voice was a bit high, but it was not embarrassing. Yu Wenzhi also mentioned the same thing, but after repeated consideration, he did not dare to accept this seemingly safest suggestion. That year

In order to keep the secrets of the royal family, Gao Lishi and Chen Xuanli unceremoniously sent him and a group of flying dragon guards to the point of no return. If he himself killed innocent people because of possible dangers at this moment,

So what's the difference between Gao, Chen and others?!

Just because he had been trampled like weeds before, he never dared to trample on others again. Suddenly, Wang Xun felt drunk in his heart. "They are all from the Tang Dynasty!" Looking at Ashilanda's confused eyes, he said with a very

He emphasized in a calm but very solemn tone, "They are all Tang people. There is a saying, so that King Fenghua knows that the reason why they are Tang people is because no matter where they go, there is a Tang Dynasty standing behind them!"
