Chapter 195 The rise in fame of classic reproductions
"Zanpu intends to establish a censor?"
In the White House of Potala Palace, Zan Xiruo's face darkened after hearing the news.
Sitting in front of him was Sitayu, the fourth son of Ludongzan who had just returned from Tuyuhun.
As the leader of the secret guard, he was actually the most handsome among the five sons of Lu Dongzan.
He has a slender figure and clear facial features. Apart from the plateau red, there are almost no features of the plateau people.
At this time, Sitayu was wearing a robe made of Shu brocade, playing with a short sword, and said: "My father proposed the position of censor back then. It is amazing that the Tang people would set up their own officials to supervise themselves."
Zan Xiruo said: "Not only in the Tang Dynasty, but also in their previous countries, there were censors who came to supervise the officials of the court and impeach officials for their mistakes. As a prime minister, my father admired this system very much, and Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was also good at accepting remonstrances.
, only by humbly listening to the advice of his officials could the Tang Dynasty become so powerful."
Sitayu sneered and said: "We in Tubo will never allow the censor to appear. It is ridiculous to find a group of people to supervise us! Is Zampu too sick and confused? A puppet dares to change the system?"
Zan Xiruo said in a condensed voice: "Do you still remember that Songtsen Gampo turned a prime minister into the current major and external ministers?"
Sitayu said: "Of course I remember that my father was the victim at that time. He was originally the only prime minister, but suddenly several people came to share power with him. However, no matter how high Songtsen Gampo's prestige was, my father could not compete with him.
If we can't compete with it, what is Zamp today?"
Zan Xiruo shook his head: "Songtsen Gampo relies not on prestige, but on the power of his subordinates. The group phase system represents the increase in official status. Multiple phases meet the needs of balancing the forces of the five rupees, and the internal struggles of each ru are also necessary.
Relying on Zampu's decision, Songtsen Gampo used this method to completely consolidate his supreme position as Zampu."
Sitayu's eyes became solemn: "Brother, what do you mean, Zanpu's proposal to set up a censor is to throw bait to Wuru and let other ministries compete with us?"
Zan Xiruo said: "Not only do we have to prevent Zan Pu from establishing a censor, but we can't even let the news spread outside Wei Ru. You can handle this matter and isolate the inside and outside. I have my own way to dispel Zan Pu's delusions."
"good!"
Sitayu nodded, his eyes flashed, and he suddenly leaned forward and got in front of his eldest brother.
Although there were only two brothers in the room, he still lowered his voice subconsciously: "Brother, didn't my father say that the Sui Emperor before the Tang Dynasty forced the puppet emperor to abdicate. Our clan is at the peak of its power, why not seize the position of Zanpu?"
, let you be the one?"
Zan Xiruo shook his head without hesitation: "It can't be done."
Sitayu was puzzled: "Why can't it be done? You are the big talker. The second brother controls the military power, and the third brother controls the power of trial. I have divine guards, and the younger brother can also support us. We five brothers work together. Thank you.
What does Pu mean?"
Zan Xiruo said: "You can't look at it this way. The reason why our Gar family is so powerful is because my father cleverly redistributed the power of Wuru to various tribes."
"Songtsen Gampo wanted to imitate the emperors of the Tang Dynasty, concentrate power in his own hands, divide the five Rus, and weaken the power of the chiefs and nobles. My father returned Ruben and Qianhu back, and my clan controlled Weiru and suppressed them.
Sun Poru, if the other three Ru have benefited, they will naturally support us."
"But if we replace it with Zanpu, will the power of Geruben and the position of Qianhu be taken back, or not? If we want to take it back, the other four Ru will immediately rise up to resist. If they don't take it back, they will
What’s the difference from now?”
Sitayu was a little unwilling: "But the position of Zanpu is the head of a country. The emperor of the Tang Dynasty is so glorious, but the powerful officials are one step behind after all. The name is not justified!"
Zan Xiruo had his own plan: "We can't be impatient. We control Wei Ru now. When we swallow Sun Boru and have these two Ru as the foundation, and then occupy the Tuyuhun land, our strength will be enough to completely overwhelm all the ministries..."
"At that time, Zampu will be weak and will only have one legitimate son. If he accidentally dies and makes way for me, I will not refuse!"
"When I take office, I will command all the ministries to fully support my second brother, send troops to seize Longyou, and aim directly at Chang'an. Our Gar family will conquer a large territory and achieve an unprecedented undertaking!"
"well!!"
Sitayu was also very excited. After the two brothers thought about the future for a long time, his eyes darkened again: "The Qiang people in Tuyuhun are in chaos, and it is okay for the two brothers to suppress it, but Sun Poru... Huh! Su Bijiu
The clan is extremely united and regards us as former slaves. It will be difficult to defeat us without going through a bloodbath!"
Zan Xiruo sneered: "Those descendants of queens, big and small, still hope that women will take power and return to glory. This time Zanpu wants to set up the position of censor, it must be the instigation of Princess Bulu. I underestimated her before,
There are so many refugees from Supi in the royal city, but she can turn a blind eye cruelly. She is a person who can achieve great things, so we cannot keep this girl!"
Sitayu frowned: "But the princess never leaves the palace, and the palace guards are her confidants and act extremely cautiously. Those refugees can't get close at all. My divine guards are now helping my second brother to detect the intelligence of the Tang army, and there are not enough manpower to sneak in.
The palace, carrying out assassinations..."
Zan Xiruo narrowed his eyes: "I remember that the leader of the divine guards is a Tang man. He has extremely good martial arts and has a magical method. You can bring that person back and do this..."
Sitayu leaned over and listened for a moment, then praised: "Brother, this is a wonderful plan. It kills two birds with one stone!"
Zan Xiruo sneered: "Zan Pu wanted to establish the post of censor, and he probably thought that the envoys from the Tang Dynasty would support him."
"Every time Li Yiyan goes out to visit, he is a hostile official of my family. He even went to see Princess Wencheng..."
"Next to Deputy Envoy Li Yuanfang is Yang Zaisi, who is good at dancing and sociable. He himself is often in the limelight and is now quite famous in the royal city!"
"These two people continue to act as envoys. We will punish them with a serious crime and expel the envoys from the country, so that all countries can take a good look at how the Tang Dynasty has lost its face!"
Sitayu nodded, but was puzzled: "How did Li Yuanfang, an envoy from the Tang Dynasty, gain a reputation in the city?"
Zan Xiruo said angrily: "By playing polo, your fifth brother is still not convinced. He cried when he came back from a game yesterday!"
Sitayu was furious: "I must avenge my fifth brother!"
…
Polo ground.
With Li Yan's cool swing, the bright red polo rotated at high speed, drew a magical arc, and shot into the door.
The referee on the sidelines announced: "Nanzhao team finished in thirteenth place!"
The Nanzhao audience outside the court suddenly cheered with ecstasy: "Another magical goal!"
The partygoers opposite looked at each other in shock.
There were only three solitary flags on the scoring pole of the Dangxiang team, but the Nanzhao team had already planted thirteen flags.
This huge lead represents a comprehensive crushing.
All because of the brave man riding on the lion.
It is indeed Li Yuanfang who defeated the Tubo team to a pulp. He is so well-deserved!
Nanzhao teammates came to the side, and the Nanzhao envoy, who was the only one who could speak Chinese, asked: "Deputy Envoy Li, how did you hit such a beautiful ball?"
Li Yan imparted his unique skills: "The moment I swung the stick, my wrist shook at a very fast speed. When it hit the ball, it had an arc, so that after the polo flew out, it would also turn together."
After the Nanzhao envoy translated, all the Nanzhao people suddenly realized: "I learned it! I learned it! Only today do I know the skills of the heavenly kingdom!"
Li Yan smiled and said, "Do you also like to play polo in your country?"
The envoy from Nanzhao said humbly: "Our small Nanman country does not have the venue and conditions to play polo, so we can only enjoy the fun of playing polo in Tubo."
Li Yan nodded: "Your Chinese is getting better and better, and you should teach the people around you more so that you can go to the imperial court to meet the saint in the future."
The Nanzhao envoy's eyes flashed: "Thank you, Deputy Envoy Li, for your guidance. I will teach them well when I get back!"
The current Nanzhao is not the border power that was able to defeat the Tang Dynasty in history, and it does not have any descendants of Nuwa. It is subordinate to the Six Zhaos of Nanman.
Just on the edge of Lingnan Road, in the Shannan area, there are six imperial edicts, and Nanzhao is the southernmost one.
The reason why we met the Nanzhao people in the royal city of Tubo was because, like other countries in the Western Regions, these small countries were wavering.
Historically, after the Tang Dynasty was defeated by Tubo in the two battles of Dafeichuan and Chengfengling, the Six Zhaos of the Southern Barbarians took refuge with Tubo.
After becoming a vassal state of Tubo, he served as a vassal and paid tribute and worship every year. However, Tubo later suppressed it too severely and rebelled again.
Now Li Yan's appearance is like a ray of light, illuminating another avenue of the Tang Dynasty.
Not only Nanzhao, but also the party team, which was beaten one-sided, also came to get close during the intermission.
The Dangxiang people were more respectful and said in proficient Chinese: "Deputy Commander Li Shenwei, it is our great honor to compete with Vice Commander Li today!"
This is not surprising. The Dangxiang Qiang people are a large branch of the Hu people in Longyou. Li Yan took a look at the visitor's dress and said: "Are you the extension of the eight tribes of Dangxiang?"
The visitor showed joy: "Li Jiyi has a keen eye, and young Tuoba Gong is a Tang Dynasty who came to the Tubo royal city to do business. He was once taken care of by the An family."
After hearing this title, Li Yan knew that this was Hu Shang under An Shengan.
He was quite discerning and sent over the future Xixia ancestors.
Li Yan asked: "What are you selling when you come to Tubo?"
Tuoba Gong replied: "Mainly silk, porcelain and tea cakes."
Li Yandao: "Have the business been affected by the recent border friction?"
Tuoba Gong smiled bitterly: "There are indeed some, especially when passing through Tuyuhun. After detailed inspection, there was inevitably some loss."
Li Yandao: "After all, I still made a lot of money... The break is over, let's continue playing!"
There is a bit of human element in it, so I won’t be tortured to death, and the final score is quite humane.
Twenty to five.
Tuoba Gong: "..."
Wrong payment.
There is nothing Li Yan can do. During the period of rising fame, he is not allowed to let loose.
His reputation in the Tang Dynasty has reached a bottleneck, and it will be very difficult to raise it to the next level.
Now in Tubo, the classics are reproduced, and the Tubo players are tortured to the point of doubting their lives, and they themselves have become famous.
Seeing the achievement points being recorded in his account, Li Yan was satisfied and rode the lion back to Da Lun Mansion, preparing to have another bowl for dinner tonight.
However, when he saw the female general Zhu Dan who was waiting in front of the hospital and took the initiative to greet him, his heart moved.
It seems that the peaceful and peaceful days are coming to an end!
