Chapter 1966 Lu Dongzan and his son who took the initiative to visit the old Cheng family
The confidants behind Lu Dongzan all had dark faces, and Danzhu was cursing and trying to rush over.
However, he was glared at by Lu Dongzan and could only stand still angrily.
Over there, Sambuza's face darkened, and he glanced coldly at these bastards who didn't listen to greetings and shouted.
"Shut up, everyone. If anyone doesn't want to respond to Tubo, get out of the envoy team."
As soon as these words came out, there were also those powerful soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who were watching eagerly at the city gate. Soon, the originally noisy members of the envoy became as quiet as chickens again.
Sambuza glanced in that direction, hesitated again and again, and finally galloped in that direction.
Seeing this scene, Lu Dongzan's expression couldn't help but change slightly, he sighed softly, and took a few steps forward.
"Brother Tunmi, go back quickly, you shouldn't have come here."
As if he didn't hear what Lu Dongzan said, Sambuza rushed up to him, looked at his friend, and then bent down and bowed.
"This is a farewell. We will never see each other again in this life. I hope you will cherish it."
Lu Dongzan took two steps forward, and finally bowed like Sambuza.
"...May my dear brother be safe and take care of yourself along the way."
"Brother Xian, if you do this, you will fall into the eyes of those people..."
Sambuza had already mounted the horse again at this moment, and glanced at the members of the envoy who were looking over there with strange expressions on their faces, but there was no wavering in their old-fashioned faces.
"I, Tunmi Sambuza, have always been upright. This time I just wanted to say goodbye to old friends and had no other intentions. What other people think has nothing to do with me."
"Even in front of the king, I am the same."
After saying these two words, Sambuza stopped talking and rode away.
Looking at Sambuza's stubborn figure, Lu Dongzan whispered with a complicated expression.
"Thunmi*Sangbuza is a true gentleman, so I am ashamed of myself."
After turning his head, he looked at his beloved son Qinling next to him who also showed his sincerity. After thinking for a while, he slapped his shoulder with a big hand and said sincerely.
"A gentleman, we must respect him, but a gentleman...my son must remember not to imitate him."
"..." Qin Ling nodded silently after hearing his father's true words. This kind of true gentleman is not something ordinary people can be.

"Ah, father, where are we going?"
Qin Ling had already taken off the traditional Tubo clothes and put on the regular clothes that people of the Tang Dynasty liked to wear most.
Seeing his father ordering people to load gifts on the carriage, he couldn't help but turned his head curiously and asked.
Lu Dongzan, who also wore regular clothes and a futou on his head, looked very polite and polite.
Except for the plateau red color on his face, he was not much different from the Han people. He straightened his clothes, got on the carriage, and walked to the tunnel without looking back.
"Let's go to Duke Lu's Mansion."
"Why go to Duke Lu's Mansion instead of Prince Wu's Mansion?"
The scheming Lu Dongzan looked at his own son who also got into the car and laughed.
"King Wu and you are of the same generation. If you want to go, of course you can go by yourself."
"And among the many noble families in the Tang Dynasty, the Changsun family is the most favored by His Majesty."
"But we, father and son, are not familiar with the Changsun family. If we look further down, we might end up at Duke Lu's mansion."
Qin Ling's eyes widened in an exaggerated way. "Father, are you wrong?"
"My child knows that among the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, Duke Lu can't even get into the top ten."
"That's it, father, you actually think that under the Changsun family is the old Cheng family?"
Lu Dongzan looked at his biological son with a look of disbelief on his face, although his biological son was quick-thinking and good at using his brain.
But more training is needed in all directions. Just like now, we can't understand the situation inside the Tang Dynasty.
"Among the noble families of the Tang Dynasty, there were indeed many noble families who married princesses and eldest princesses."
"My father, let me ask you, apart from the Changsun family, what other surnames and clans did the people who married the two princesses of the Tang Dynasty have?"
"Moreover, the one Cheng Sanlang is about to marry is His Majesty's favorite Princess Jinyang, and he himself, so young, has already been awarded the title of Taisun Taibao for his meritorious service."
"There is also the Han-Tang Trading Company established by Cheng Sanlang. His Majesty the Emperor, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and many other members of the royal family also have shares in it..."
Listening to his own father counting Cheng Sanlang's great achievements on his fingers in the carriage, Qin Ling was so frightened as he counted them.
Never would I have imagined that Cheng Sanlang, who seemed to be only a few years older than himself, had caused his father and son to become the Cheng Sanlang they are today, and would actually have such abilities.
"Have you ever heard of a saying that was originally only spread in Chang'an, but now it is also spread in Luoyang?"
"What are you talking about?" Qin Ling raised his head and looked at this wise father with a very humbly expression.
After Lu Dongzan trimmed his long beard a few times, he said with a strange expression, "If you offend the Cheng family, you won't be able to survive the year."
"???" Qin Ling looked at his father in confusion, somewhat confused as to what kind of nonsense this was.
"The Cheng family in these words refers to Lu Guogong's family..."
Lu Dongzan wiped his face, whispered into his son's ear, and Qin Ling's eyes widened in an exaggerated way.
When he arrived at the gate of Duke Lu's Mansion in Luoyang, Qin Ling stepped into the carriage.
I saw the fierce and ferocious General Cheng with an angry beard, and the tall, heroic, and extraordinary Cheng Sanlang behind him quickly came out of the house to welcome him.
Qinling couldn't help but take a deep breath, he must remember his father's words.
Don't offend this Cheng Sanlang who is no bigger than the eye of a needle, is a first-rate noisy demon, and is deeply loved by His Majesty.

Of course the hospitable Cheng family would not let him go, oh no, of course they would not let Lu Dongzan down.
The enthusiastic and heroic General Cheng, the honest and friendly eldest and second eldest son of the Cheng family, and the friendly Cheng Sanlang.
Lu Dongzan and his son definitely felt at home, and the delicacies at the Cheng family banquet were also the special feature of the Cheng family banquet: the old Cheng family's secret Sanlejiang.
Ling Lu Dongzan and his son felt the enthusiasm of the Cheng family, and Lu Dongzan and his son Qin Ling were also very proud. After all, they took the initiative to visit the old Cheng family.
The other party is so hospitable, how can they still be coy about it? Besides, the father and son are also quite confident in their ability to drink.
So the wine was drained unceremoniously, and the banquet lasted for less than half an hour. They looked at Lu Dongzan and his son, who were almost out of shape.
General Cheng stroked his thick beard like a steel needle with an unfinished expression on his face and said rather helplessly.
"He has a good personality, but his ability to drink is too poor."
"Dad is right, come on, let's go together, father and son..."
When Lu Dongzan and his son opened their eyes again, they were horrified to find that they were still at the old Cheng's house.
