Great Tang Broom Star

"To the west?"

When Xu Jingzong got the news, Liao Quan, the licking dog he brought back, was also there.

"Your Majesty has an order to lead you to the west to meet the Tubo envoys."

The officials from the Ministry of Rites came, and then there were some personnel arrangements, and finally Lao Xu took the lead to form a team to go.

"Tubo envoy?" Xu Jingzong was overjoyed when he heard the words, thinking that this is not a credit for the old man?

He raised his head immediately, with an impassioned expression on his face, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, if I go here, I will definitely show my power to the Great Tang!"

Liao Quan looked at his idol from the sidelines, and couldn't help secretly praising: He really is an envoy who has worked tirelessly for the country and the people.

The official of the Ministry of Rites nodded, "The ministers in the court have said that at this time, Tubo may have other thoughts, so proceed carefully."

Old Xu's heart trembled, "What are you thinking?"

The official said: "When the news of the late emperor's death spread, Tubo will definitely covet the Tang Dynasty, and this trip might see blood."

Lao Xu was shocked, and was about to refuse the task, but Liao Quan was excited.

"Your Majesty is upright and awe-inspiring, and his methods are superb, what are those Tubo people doing!"

Well!

But the old man is flustered!

Old Xu Qiang smiled, "This matter..."

"There are also people from Baiqi who are traveling with us."

In an instant, Lao Xu's back was no longer sore, his legs were no longer hurting, and he ran to the Suzaku Gate without panting.

With the old man's think tank, what is the old man worried about?

He said lightly: "This old man is duty-bound! Be fearless!"

After the officials of the Ministry of Rites returned, someone asked him, "What about the treacherous minister Xu?"

The official said sternly: "Don't call him a traitor. According to someone, this man is upright and loyal."

...

The team quickly formed, and before leaving, Jia Pingan went to Baiqi to say goodbye.

Tang Xu is here, and Shao Peng is also there.

Seeing Jia Pingan carrying a long knife, Shaopeng said sharply, "Can you kill the enemy?"

Jia Pingan didn't know what he meant, but subconsciously stood up straight, "Yes."

Shao Peng's voice became sharper, "In Chang'an, in Datang, you are Baiqi Jia Wenshu. Outside of Datang, you are a warrior of Datang, what should you do when you encounter enemies?"

Jia Ping'an raised his head, "Kill the enemy!"

"Don't embarrass Datang!"

"Don't bow your head to aliens!"

In an instant, Jia Ping'an felt his blood rushing.

Is this Datang?

"Someone remembered."

He walked out of the guard room, and there were dozens of horses standing outside.

They all clasped their hands together, "No victory, no return!"

Jia Pingan cupped his hands, "I will definitely not disgrace the mission and the Tang Dynasty!"

He walked out of Baiqi, and outside, Wei Wushuang in men's clothes was also wearing a long knife, looking heroic.

"Set off."

Bao Dong, Lei Hong and dozens of other cavalry followed.

Everyone left the imperial city, joined the mission, and headed west.

...

Diezhou.

The administrative structure of the Tang Dynasty is different from the previous ones. The first level is Dao, but Dao is only a regional division, without rights and officials. That is to say, Dao is only a concept to distinguish regions, not an administrative level.

Further down is the Dudufu, prefectures and counties and so on.

The governor of Diezhou, Wang Dekai, is discussing with Biejia Zhou Guo at the moment.

His figure may seem ordinary, but when he smiles, his heroic energy is unforgettable.

"Everyone says that the right side of Diezhou is Tuyuhun, the front is Bailan Kingdom, and the back is Tubo. Although they are waiting for death, Tubo Zanpu has stopped fighting and dare not raise troops. It can be seen that it is the most boring place.

However, before his death, the late emperor sent the British government to serve as the governor of Diezhou, which shows the importance of this place. A certain person followed closely, and should do something. "

He picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, with a look of disdain on his weather-beaten face, "Tubo made many attempts in Bailan Kingdom a while ago,

There was even a small team of shepherds who pretended to be lost and passed between Bailan and Tuyuhun to the front of Diezhou. This was a test! "

Zhou Guo stroked his beard and said confidently: "When the first emperor passed away, Tubo thought that the Tang Dynasty would be weak and decline, so they came here to harass and test. This is common sense. If you don't come, the officials will feel strange."

"Ha ha ha ha!"

The two couldn't help laughing.

"Captain, the Tibetans are here."

A sergeant came outside, his face was a little red from the sun.

Wang Dekai suddenly stood up, "Where? How many people?"

The sergeant said: "There are more than ten riders, and they say that the embassy to mourn the late emperor is coming soon."

Wang Dekai sat down and waved his hands, "The people from Chang'an who came to welcome the mission should be arriving soon, tell the Tubo people to talk about it when they come."

After the sergeant left, Zhou Guo leaned towards Wang Dekai, and said confidently: "Commander, why do you need to meet such things? Some people think that Diezhou is enough. Chang'an sent people to come, but it fell to the prestige of Datang."

Wang Dekai nodded, "Your Majesty has recently ascended the throne. I am afraid that the court will be unstable. This is a safe idea, but I don't know who sent it."

Before the words were finished, a soldier came to report, "Captain, someone from Chang'an is here."

"Who leads the team?" Zhou Guo got up and asked, his eyes sparkling.

The sergeant said: "It is said to be the governor of Yongzhou...Xu Jingzong."

Boom!

Wang Dekai clapped the case and scolded: "This man is a treacherous man, he only knows how to do things according to his wishes, even if he sends a cow, he is better than him!"

Zhou Guo turned around, shook his head and sighed, "Then Xu Jingzong has literary talents, but there are too many people with literary talents. He relies on his experience to observe Shangyi all the way to promotion. This kind of people... I am afraid that this matter will be a little troublesome."

"Someone knows!" Wang Dekai said with a sullen face, "Tell the brothers, stand ready, once Xu Jingzong messes things up, we have to block with our bodies, and we have to stand up the dignity of Datang!"

...

When he entered Diezhou, Xu Jingzong obviously had a more dignified air.

He should always remind himself of his identity and make words and deeds consistent with his identity.

And the long-legged beauty can be said to be hard-working.

Only a hundred miles away from Chang'an City, Wei Wushuang's inner thigh was worn out, and he was in excruciating pain. Jia Pingan got her a carriage, but she stubbornly chose to continue riding.

This kind of riding is grinding, the skin is worn out, calluses are born, and it is worn out again... Finally, the horsemanship is refined, and the skin gradually adapts to this kind of friction, so he becomes a knight.

Jia Ping'an has been watching this woman's transformation, and feels... so f*cking!

And because of the high-speed galloping all the way, half of the horses were abolished. If there is no supplement on the road, they can only move forward with one pair of legs.

This is an era without horseshoes.

But Jia Pingan has no intention of contributing this combat power multiplier now.

Li Zhicai is about to ascend the throne, and Changsun Wuji has led a small circle around for a while, so he has to take another look.

"Wang Dekai, governor of Diezhou, is here to welcome you!"

A group of cavalry appeared in front of them, and the leader was Wang Dekai, the governor of Diezhou.

When the two sides greeted each other, Wei Wushuang was next to Jia Ping'an, whispering in his ear: "They seem to look down on Xu Shijun."

The reputation of Lao Xu, a treacherous official, has improved in the capital, but it remains the same in the local area.

It's not rude to come and go, Jia Pingan listened to Wei Wushuang and whispered into Wei Wushuang's ear: "Don't worry, Mr. Xu will impress them..."

Then he saw his ears turn red quickly.

"Why are your ears red?"

Feeling itchy ears, Wei Wushuang's face turned red because of the discomfort.

Such a sassy girl, but still blushed by Master Jia.

She clenched her hands into fists, and her feet were itchy, but she thought that she was talking to him first, so she lost her confidence.

"The Tibetan messenger is here."

If Lao Xu and Wang Dekai are a pair of grievances who seem to be inseparable, and they are secretly thinking about how to fool each other by pretending to be having fun when they sleep together tonight, then the Tubo messenger is like Lao Xu's poker friend, shouting: Three Ques One, is there anyone?

Xu Jingzong beckoned, Wang Dekai smiled and said, "This is... who else?"

He thought there was a big boss accompanying him, but he couldn't help being surprised when he saw a young official coming up.

Xu Jingzong didn't introduce him either, and the Tubo messenger came later.

The person who came saw his red and swollen eyes, first expressed his condolences to the late emperor, and then said seriously: "Tuyuhun has always been hostile to Tubo, and the envoys are going to pass by Tuyuhun, and the envoys are worried about being attacked, so I implore the envoys of the Tang Dynasty to meet them. "

Tubo is a transliteration, according to the meaning of the word, it is similar to the title of Datang.

After the Tuyuhun people were defeated by the Tang Dynasty, they bowed their heads and proclaimed themselves ministers. But Tubo has always been eyeing them, and the conflicts between the two sides continue.

So this argument holds true.

But what if the Tibetans ambush the envoy?

Old Xu brought dozens of hundreds of riders, don't take it seriously!

Don't be surprised by the risks of going on a mission in this era. In such a remote place, if the other party has the absolute strength to destroy your mission, they will do so, and let you die silently and without evidence.

That was exactly what happened to Wang Xuance back then, but he escaped, otherwise, no one would have known about the death of the Tang Mission in Tianzhu.

Wang Dekai wished he could come forward to deal with it by himself.

Zhou Guo said in a low voice: "It's not good to agree to this matter. If you don't agree, you will be ashamed. The best way is to agree. But Xu Jingzong is timid and afraid of death. He is afraid that he will refuse. According to someone, this messenger is here to provoke. If Xu Jingzong If Jingzong refuses, Tubo will be able to take the lead!"

Wang Dekai's face was livid, "I should have changed someone if I knew it earlier! Now...hey! It's embarrassing!"

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Xu Jingzong's legs were a little weak.

It's no problem if you want him to go to the army, but he doesn't dare to take such unpredictable and dangerous actions.

This is greed for life and fear of death.

The messenger looked at him seemingly inadvertently, and found that he was timid, and couldn't help being ecstatic in his heart.

It worked!

The Tang envoy was afraid of being ambushed and dared not go!

Tubo, take the lead!

Jia Pingan stood behind Xu Jingzong, so angry that he wanted to kill the old thief. He stretched out his foot and stepped hard on Xu Jingzong's heel.

"good!"

Xu Jingzong became excited like chicken blood in an instant, "Let's go later."

The messenger was stunned.

This is...he swears that he saw it for real before, Tang Shi was just timid, but why did he become impassioned when he turned his head...

This unscientific!

Wang Dekai and others were even more surprised.

Is this the traitor Xu?

This old thief who is greedy for life and afraid of death, how dare he take risks?
