After hearing this, some people still wanted to dissuade Li Chengqian.
But Li Chengqian said: "Come here, please pass on my order and tell the Tibetan envoys that since the negotiation has ended, Du He is no longer the leader of the negotiation, so Du He will not accept their challenge. If they want to
If you want a challenge, challenge others."
The herald was about to walk out when he saw Ximen Qing hurried in at the door.
"Your Highness, gentlemen, there is news from the furniture factory that the county magistrate has accepted the challenge from the Tibetan people." Ximen Qing walked into the Tai Chi Hall and panted.
Li Chengqian was stunned and asked: "Ximen Qing, where did you get the news?"
Ximen Qing said cautiously: "Your Highness, when the Tubo people launched the challenge, they sent a group of people to the palace to deliver the news, and also sent a group of people to the furniture factory. Now, the news that the Yixian Bo agreed to challenge has been revealed by the Tubo people.
The news has spread, and most people in Chang'an City know about it."
Snapped.
Li Chengqian angrily slapped the pillar next to him and said angrily: "Despicable, the Tubo people are despicable!"
With that said, he turned to look at Du Ruhui: "Prime Minister Du, now only you can stop Du He. In public and private matters, I don't want Du He to agree to the Tubo people. This is clearly the Tubo people's vicious plan."
, I’m afraid it will be detrimental to Du He.”
Du Ruhui pondered for a long time before saying: "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness, but since He'er agreed, he must have his own plans. Even if he really fell into the trap and got into trouble, it was his own choice. He was loyal to the Tang Dynasty and to Your Majesty.
You can talk."
After saying that, he turned his head and snorted at those who had encouraged Du He to challenge.
…
Furniture Factory.
call out.
Snapped.
call out.
Snapped.
The two arrows were shot in one go and hit the target.
Du He put down his bow and breathed a sigh of relief.
Xu Zhengdao next to him said with a confused look on his face: "Sir, you are a natural-born archer. You have only learned it for less than half a month and you are already so good. I think back then, I studied with my master for three years before I became like this."
level.”
Du He looked at the bow in his hand and shook his head: "Bows and arrows are never a long-term solution. The future belongs to hot weapons."
Xu Zhengdao asked: "What weapon?"
"Hot weapons!"
After saying that, Du He threw the bow to Xu Zhengdao, walked to a chair nearby and lay down.
Xu Zhengdao scratched his head: "Aren't weapons all cold? Since when have there been warm weapons?"
The old man, who had been staying in the potato field for almost a month, hurried over and diligently patted Du He's shoulders and legs.
Chong, you can make your own decisions about everything, but you should really discuss this matter with me. After all, the Tubo people are ambitious and you rashly agreed to their challenge. Who knows what big conspiracy is waiting for you.
.”
Du He lay on the chair and said with a smile: "Bu Huitong praised this challenge. It is Sima Zhao's heart that everyone knows. Do you know why this young master agreed to him?"
"I don't know..." Old Fu shook his head honestly.
Du He suddenly stood up, picked up his fan, and said, "Because, in the face of strong strength, everything is just a cloud."
Du He turned around and said, "Okay, let's go and see the potato seedlings honestly. This time, they will inevitably bleed. It won't be good to scare you."
"Master...but I have watched you grow up." Old Fu rubbed his eyes and barely squeezed out two tears.
Snapped.
Du He knocked on his forehead with a fan: "Okay, okay, old master, you are really an actor. Do you allow me to accompany you?"
"Ah, that's great, young master..." Old Fu was as happy as a child.
Just after the quarter hour, Du He led everyone on horseback and rode out of the gate of the furniture factory, heading towards Chang'an City.
Accompanying him were Lao Fu, Lu Bu, Zhang Jian and Zhang Wei.
Du He, who was riding a green horse, had no expression on his face.
Above the attic.
Li Yuanshu and Li Lizhi watched Du He and others getting farther and farther away, and finally disappeared into small black dots. They were speechless.
After a long while, Li Yuanshu said leisurely: "If you don't do a good job and make good money, why should you put yourself in danger? Confucius said, a gentleman will not stand behind a dangerous wall. He will do well. Wherever there is danger, he will do it."
No matter where you go, you can't stop it."
Li Lizhi nodded in agreement: "That's right, sister, let's not marry such a person, so as not to remain a widow in the future!"
Before she finished speaking, Li Yuanshu nervously covered Li Lizhi's mouth: "Don't talk nonsense, Du He, he will be fine."
…
In June, the sun is as hot as fire.
Everyone stood in front of the Tai Chi Palace. Within a moment, they were already sweating profusely.
Bu Huitongzan and others had arrived long ago, but Du He was still missing.
Bu Huitongzan said loudly: "Your Highness, we have been staring at you for half an hour. If Du He doesn't show up again, it will be regarded as Du He admitting defeat. As long as Du He admits defeat, then we can renegotiate."
As soon as I finished speaking, I heard someone shouting in the distance: "The uncle of Yi County is here!"
Everyone turned around and saw Du He and others walking slowly towards this side.
From a distance, Du He pointed at Bu Huitongzan and said, "Master Bu Huitongzan, didn't you agree that the competition will start at noon? How come it's not here yet and you want me to admit defeat?"
When Bu Huitongzan saw Du He, anger immediately appeared in his eyes: "Du He, stop talking nonsense. Today, I will show you the strength of Tubo in retaliation for your humiliation of Tubo. It's not too late for you to kneel down and beg for mercy now."
.”
"Haha, isn't it a competition? Let's start now!" Du He looked impatient and waved his hand.
Bu Huitongzan said in front of everyone: "Okay, for the first game, let's compete in literature. The person next to me is the most wise old man in Tubo. He knows astronomy and geography. He knows everything and is omnipotent. He is the best in the world.
The smartest man, Master Dulan, today, Master Dulan will compete with you. If you lose, you must agree to the negotiation terms proposed by Tubo this time. Du He, do you dare?"
"Why don't you dare..." Du He sneered.
I saw a lama wearing long robes and a cockscomb hat coming out next to Bu Hui Tongzan. He stood up and saluted Du He with one hand.
Nowadays, Buddhism has been popular in Tubo for a long time and has great influence. Lamas have a high status in Tubo. Even Songtsen Gampo of Tubo is also a believer. The regime of Tubo is to some extent related to Tubo Buddhism.
It's one.
Master Dulan was about forty years old, with a dark complexion, and looked like an accomplished monk. However, he looked at Du He with a bit of contempt.
The old lama said pretentiously: "Originally, the poor monk did not want to bully the children, but he had no choice but to take action for the sake of the peace talks with Tibet."
Hearing this, Du He cursed loudly: "Old guy, what are you pretending to do? Come here and die."
Master Dulan took a few steps forward and said with a cold smile: "Commander Du, today, the poor monk and you will have a literary competition. Each of you will give a question to test the other. How about it?"
