Chapter 1928 To you and my father and son, to the Xue family, it is a great disaster
Lu Dongzan, who was sitting in the house in front of the Zhenguan stove, enjoying the sweet tea soup, heard familiar footsteps.
As soon as he looked up, he saw his own son Qin Ling walking into the house. He looked at Qin Ling, who was now wearing a Tang Dynasty costume and looked more and more handsome.
Lu Dongzan couldn't help but reveal a cheerful and kind smile.
"Come here and sit down..."
Qinling saluted Ludong and sat aside.
"My child has met Appa. Appa came back very early today. My child thought that Appa would come back at night."
"Today, my father accompanied the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to the outside of the city to watch the military exercises of the Tang guards. After watching the military exercises, he came back on the pretext of feeling unwell."
As soon as these words came out, Qin Ling couldn't help but feel suspicious. "Apa, has something happened?"
Looking at his biological son in front of him, Lu Dongzan looked a little embarrassed and stroked his long beard for a long time before he spoke.
"It's nothing serious. It's just that His Majesty the Emperor of Tang made a request that made me very embarrassed."
"His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty once asked me whether he would be severely punished if he failed to complete the marriage agreement and returned to Tubo."
"If...if I am willing, His Majesty the Emperor of Tang is willing to take the position of Minister of the Tang Kingdom..."
"Then Appa, you didn't agree, right?"
"This is natural, but His Majesty the Emperor of Tang treated me very kindly, and his words of concern came from the bottom of his heart. This is what makes me most embarrassed..."
Qin Ling stared blankly at his biological father Lu Dongzan, who was frowning, and immediately reacted.
What kind of character the leader of the Tubo Kingdom had, his father Lu Dongzan had analyzed it for himself many times.
My father's predecessor, the prime minister Shang Nang, could be said to be far superior to his own father in terms of favor and merit.
He has always been loyal to the king of the country through life and death. Even when he led the army to attack Xiangxiong Kingdom, he was led by Prime Minister Shang Nang, who knew the war.
It was such a famous Tubo official who had made great achievements, but he lost his army and generals in a battle with the Tang Dynasty on Jiannan Road.
The king was displeased and his position was dismissed. This made the strong-tempered Shang Nang so worried and angry that he fell ill.
It was only then that my father was able to worship the Prime Minister because of his meritorious service in bringing back Princess Nibala for the king.
The ruler of the country paid more attention to the marriage with the Tang Dynasty than to the marriage with Nibala.
Before his father went on an mission, the king visited his home several times to show his favor, hoping that Lu Dongzan could repeat Nibala's success in marrying the princess of the Tang Dynasty.
And it can also gain the approval of His Majesty the Emperor of the Kingdom in the Center of the World, so that Tubo can have great righteousness and legitimately unify the plateau.
But now, the marriage mission has failed. Qin Ling knows that his father is very worried about the loss of his position after returning to Tubo.
However, he really didn't expect that His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty would be so optimistic about his own father, and even go out to win over him in person.
Comparing the two, Qin Ling couldn't help but feel in his heart that the vision of the Lord of Tubo was too far behind that of His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
Lu Dongzan saw that his most cherished son Qin Ling was surprisingly calm after hearing his confession.
The thoughtful look on his face made Lu Dongzan feel suspicious.
"Qinling, what's wrong with you?"
Qin Ling came back to his senses and couldn't help but uttered something in a low voice.
"Apa, it would be great if I, the ruler of Tubo, could be as majestic as His Majesty the Tang Emperor."
"Huh?" These words made Lu Dongzan frown in displeasure.
"Apa, my child just told the truth. These days, my child is touring the Eastern Capital with King Wu of the Tang Dynasty."
"It can be seen that these people in the Tang Dynasty are very wealthy, and they are also governed by officials during the Qingming Festival..."
Hearing this, Lu Dongzan's expression changed and he quickly shouted to stop.
"That's enough. You're tired. Go and have a rest."
Seeing his own son who was frightened and a little overwhelmed by his violent shouting, Lu Dongzan sighed softly and lowered his voice.
"When these words come out of your mouth and into my ears, never let others know. Otherwise, it will be a great disaster for you, my father and my son, and for the Xue family."
Looking at his father's eyes full of warning, Qin Ling could only lower his head and replied honestly.
"Yes, the child understands and will not talk nonsense."
"Okay, you can go out first, I want to have some quiet time."
Seeing Lu Dongzan holding the desk with a tired look on his face and sitting there with a sad look on his face, Qin Ling quietly exited the room and closed the door.
Standing outside the house and taking a deep breath of the oxygen-rich air, Qin Ling couldn't help but feel a little confused.
Compared to the vast and endless plateau, this place is incredibly rich in resources and has countless delicacies.
There are countless talents with similar interests to get to know, and there are also various leisure and entertainment venues to enjoy.
Such a colorful world has made Qinling's young heart full of intimacy towards the Tang Dynasty, which was originally strange and even secretly hostile.
When he thought that the marriage mission had failed to fulfill His Majesty's great trust, he followed his father back to Tibet.
I'm afraid that my father's status in the eyes of the king will most likely plummet. Will Apa still have a chance to recover?
It's really hard to say. After all, my father is only the head of the Xue family, and there are several other big families who support the leader of the country. If my father loses his position, he will be hurt by those people.
Qin Ling took out a breath, shook his head, and walked towards his house.
What he didn't notice was that in a corner where no one was paying attention, a pair of eyes stared at his every move.
#####
"Young man, please see His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty..." He prostrated himself to the ground with a trembling look on his face, and said with sincerity and fear.
"Get up quickly. It is really a blessing for Shangshung Kingdom to have brave warriors like you, Nima..."
Li Shimin slowly came to Nima, stretched out his hand and helped Nima up personally.
He looked at the wealthy businessman from the plateau, Nima, who was trying to remain calm but whose legs were trembling.
I couldn't help but glare at Cheng Sanlang who was winking at Naima frequently.
"Cheng Sanlang, what are you doing?"
"It's nothing. My nephew is just worried that he is too nervous and will subconsciously talk nonsense. I just want to remind him."
Hearing this, Li Shimin suddenly had a dark look on his face and almost wanted to shoot him. When it comes to your ability to talk nonsense, who can compare with you?
If you didn't see an outsider here, I would be surprised if I didn't make you turn your eyes white.
Li Shimin was too lazy to pay attention to this monster moth. He patted Nima's shoulder with his big hand and said with a pleasant expression on his face.
"Nah, right? Don't pay attention to Cheng Sanlang. Come, come, come and sit down. After I read the blood letter, I was deeply touched. I just have something I want to have a good chat with you about..."
