Chapter 2410 Songtsen Gampo is coming
"Your Highness Prince Ji, the Tibetan king is indeed called Songtsen Gampo."
Guo Xiaoke reminded him from the side that he thought Li Shen didn't know who the Zamp of Tubo was. After all, he was a playboy prince, so it was normal for him not to know.
Just by looking at Li Shen's surprised expression, one can tell that Prince Ji and Songtsen Gampo had no connection.
"I know their king is called Songtsen Gampo. I am just curious why they came to Xizhou City and wanted to see me.
Even if there is something, you should go to Chang'an City to see His Majesty."
Li Shen replied.
"I think he doesn't dare to go to Chang'an City. The relationship between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo is tense now. If he goes to Chang'an City, he may not be able to return."
Wang Xuance explained behind him.
"Then he is not afraid that I will keep him here?" Li Shen asked unconvincedly. Why isn't he ruthless enough?
"Your Highness can't really do anything to him. After all, he is the Zamp of Tubo, and he is also the king of a country.
Even if the prince wants to keep him, he can only capture him, not kill him."
Wang Xuance reminded.
Another bullshit unspoken rule, Li Shen felt disdainful.
But since I'm here, I might as well meet him. After all, he's a character written in elementary school books.
Li Shen immediately gave the order:
"Inform Xue Rengui to let them in. I want to see their intentions."
Li Shen's idea was simple. Instead of letting the Tibetans wait a few miles away, it would be more convenient to put them under the city and guard them.
There are tens of thousands of troops here. If we don’t get along, we will eat them all.
After hearing this, the scout immediately jumped on his horse and rode away.
"Your Highness Prince Ji, should we make some preparations? After all, he is the Tibetan king, and we cannot lose our manners."
Yang Hongli bowed and asked.
"No, he's just the King of Tubo. I'm more noble than him here. There's no need to make excessive preparations. Otherwise, wouldn't that lower my status?"
Li Shen shook his head after hearing this. The status of the Tubo King was only equal to his own. If it were someone like Li Zhi or Li Tai, they might even treat Songtsen Gampo with courtesy.
But my strength is there, and I have the ability to compete with Tubo.
I have a huge business empire, so I am not afraid of you.
"I just don't know what the Tibetan Zanpu's purpose is in coming here. Has Your Highness ever had any contact with him before?"
Ashina She'er asked calmly while looking into the distance.
"Of course not. I rarely leave Chang'an City, so I'm a little curious."
Li Shen shook his head.
As everyone was talking, a dark crowd appeared on the distant horizon.
They were all riding horses at a very fast speed, and soon they stopped one mile away from the city.
Li Shen used a telescope to look and found that there was actually a carriage in the team.
Just when Li Shen was wondering, he saw the other side sending out hundreds of people to escort the carriage towards the city.
Xue Rengui also followed with a group of people, and the rest of the guards and the people from the Ashina tribe surrounded the Tibetans.
The carriage was escorted to the foot of the city, and a man who looked like an official came up.
"I wonder if His Royal Highness Prince Ji of the Tang Dynasty is here?"
Ashina She'er stepped forward and said:
"His Royal Highness Prince Ji is here. Who are you?"
"I am the Grand Chancellor under the Tibetan King Zamp, and I would like to see His Royal Highness Prince Ji." This person shouted upwards. In fact, he had already seen Li Shen.
Li Shen stood in the center surrounded by the crowd, and his clothes were also different from others. He knew the hierarchy of the Tang Dynasty.
"I heard that your Zamp has arrived, why don't you come out in person to ask for an audience?" Ashina She'er shouted.
The meaning is obvious, you are not qualified yet.
"Our Zamp is in the car, but he is physically unable to come out to meet His Royal Highness Prince Ji in person. I hope Your Highness Prince Ji will forgive me."
The Grand Minister looked at Li Shen and said this to Li Shen.
Li Shen had only heard of the Grand Prime Minister, and Lu Dongzan was the Grand Prime Minister, but he didn't know who the Internal Grand Prime Minister was.
"Your Highness, the Prime Minister is an official who helps the Zamp handle the internal affairs of the palace and has enormous power." Wang Xuance whispered in Li Shen's ear.
"Oh~~It's Wang De." Li Shen didn't know whether there were eunuchs in the Tubo palace, but wasn't it the Ministry of Internal Affairs that handled the palace's internal affairs?
Li Shen understood and whispered a few words before turning around and walking down the city wall.
Wang Xuance took a step forward and shouted to the people below:
"Prince Ji has ordered that your Zamp and his attendants be allowed to enter the city. The rest of the people are to set up camp outside. Anyone who makes any unusual movement will be killed."
"This..." The Prime Minister hesitated after hearing this and wanted to fight for it again. If he waited too long for the attendants to enter the city, what would happen if their Zamp was in danger?
They are planning to bring 500 people into the city this time.
"Cough cough cough~~"
Just as he was about to speak, he heard a cough coming from the carriage and quickly turned around and came to the front of the carriage.
"Do as I say." A faint voice came from the carriage. The prime minister immediately accepted the order and told the people beside him to retreat and set up camp.
He arrived at the city gate in a carriage with only a dozen attendants.
The city gate opened, letting a group of people in, and then closed again.
At Li Shen's Ji Wangfu office, generals such as Ashina She'er had already arrived, and Li Shen sat in the first seat.
He did not choose the Xizhou government office, as it was no longer his territory.
The purpose of letting Ashina She'er and others come was to avoid suspicion, in case these people came to sow discord.
It would be nice to have a witness then.
"Your Majesty, the Tibetan king has arrived."
The guards below report.
"Let's go, follow me to greet him. The Tang Dynasty is a country of etiquette, so proper etiquette must be observed."
Li Shen stood up and spoke to the soldiers. At this moment, he had changed into a purple royal robe and a royal crown on his head, looking very noble.
When they arrived at the gate, the guards divided into two rows and lined up to greet them.
"My dear minister, Mangbujie Shangnang pays homage to His Royal Highness Prince Ji."
When the Grand Minister saw Li Shen, who was surrounded by people and dressed in gorgeous clothes, he immediately stepped forward and bowed.
"Mother...@sac, please don't be so polite." Li Shen felt that he was taken advantage of.
It turned out that she was a generation older than me and had an old mother.
"Thank you, Your Highness Prince Ji." Mother. Mangbujie Shangnang thanked her and stood up.
"Where is your Zanpu? Would it be inconvenient for me to come and pick him up in person?" Li Shen looked at the carriage.
"Prince Ji is joking." Li Shen had just finished speaking when he heard a weak voice coming from inside the carriage, and then a figure emerged from it.
But this man moved slowly and seemed extremely weak, so several servants helped him get off the carriage.
When he came in front of Li Shen, Li Shen could see clearly that he was a majestic and heroic man, about thirty years old.
He has delicate features, a tall stature, wears a white felt hat, and a long robe with a large triangular lapel. He has a pretty face and his braids fall down his shoulders.
But now he was being supported by someone, his face looked sick, his face was pale, and his limbs were weak.
"The Tibetan king meets Prince Ji."
(No wonder they say that only shameless people can get rich. How shameless! Is this a challenge to the public?)
