For these people, all the things done by the court are considered correct by the court.
Seeing the cheers of this group of Tang people, Lu Dong gave a sigh of praise.
Immediately afterwards, a group of people rode horses and arrived at Honglu Temple and began to stop here.
Officials from Honglu Temple will make arrangements for them.
Everyone checked in and made arrangements for their group of Tubo people. Officials from Honglu Temple arrived at the palace and reported to the Holy One.
After hearing the news over there, Li Er waved his hand, and the matter was arranged in this way. Since the guests came from afar, all the meals were prepared for them according to the highest standards.
Although they are just a small tribe, they still have to demonstrate the etiquette of our heavenly dynasty.
"It's Your Majesty."
In a short while, all the meals in the court room were arranged.
Seeing the food provided by Datang, which they had never seen before, everyone was stunned and confused.
What did Datang get for them? What is this?
No one has seen it before, so why have these things never been seen before?
Are these things unique to their Tang Dynasty?
Whether it’s vegetables or various items, this is the first time for everyone.
"Prime minister?"
"Okay everyone, it's taken so long for everyone to arrive in Datang, so it's time to take a good rest.
Tomorrow I will take a few people to the court of the Tang Dynasty to meet His Majesty the Tang Dynasty."
"It's the Prime Minister."
After Lu Dongzan finished speaking, the minister below began to eat.
While eating, everyone expressed their feelings again.
Not to mention, the food prepared by Datang tastes really delicious.
Not bad.
While everyone was sighing with emotion, they once again saw the drinks prepared by Datang for them next to them. They stepped forward and started drinking too.
Well, the drinks in Datang are also quite good.
It's still more delicious and stronger than their Tubo highland barley wine.
"Prime Minister, please drink first."
"Okay everyone, let all the soldiers eat and drink first."
You and the few people you arranged to accompany you are not allowed to drink. In any case, you must maintain sufficient energy.
This wine smells really strong. Who knows if you will be greedy after drinking it?
When you come here to deal with things, no matter what, you must deal with all the things before celebrating properly.
On the other hand, if these soldiers drink, they can sleep until dawn.
"How's it going at Honglu Temple?"
"Your Majesty, we have arranged all the meals.
When this group of Tubo people saw the food and drinks from Tang Dynasty, they devoured them as if they had never seen them before.
Judging from this, it must be that the Tibetan people do not have these things.
That’s why they did what they did today.”
Li Er heard this and nodded.
As expected, they are a group of barbaric people who have never seen much of the world. In this case, I will meet them at the palace tomorrow and see what they are going to do!
"Pass my order to have people keep a close eye on these Tibetan people.
If anything happens, come and report to me anytime, anywhere."
"It's Your Majesty."
After saying that, the guard hurriedly left, while Li Er sat aside and started busy again.
As the sun rises in the east, shining on this ancient land, the sound of morning comes...
One after another, ministers began to rush towards the palace.
Over at Honglu Temple, Lu Dongzan and others had also gotten up early.
The people of the Tang Dynasty were indeed wealthy. Even the place where they slept was better than the place where they rested in the Tubo people.
And those soldiers, having eaten and drank enough yesterday, also slept until this morning.
Now everyone has woken up and started waiting quietly at Honglu Temple.
"When there is something to do, start the court, and when there is nothing to do, leave the court."
As Li Er's personal officer finished shouting this sentence, the ministers below stood up one after another and began to make reports.
After all the reports were finished, the minister from Honglu Temple stepped forward and saluted.
"Your Majesty, this Tibetan group has arrived at Chang'an City and is waiting quietly at Honglu Temple.
I wonder when His Majesty will summon them?"
"The Tubo people are coming?"
Immediately afterwards, the people below began to whisper again.
Li Er glanced at the ministers and waved.
"Come here, tell me my message and let these Tubo people come to the palace to meet you."
"It's Your Majesty."
Arrangements were made for people to leave the palace, go to Honglu Temple, and bring the Tibetan people over.
Upon hearing the summons from the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Lu Dongzan and others packed up their clothes, arranged for accompanying guards, prepared gifts, and under the leadership of the Tang Dynasty officials, left Honglu Temple, arrived at the palace, and came to the court.
Tang, I met His Majesty the Tang Dynasty!
"Dear Tibetan envoys, the one above is my Majesty the Tang Dynasty!"
Seeing His Majesty the Tang Dynasty sitting above, Lu Dongzan and his party quickly saluted!
"We, the Tubo envoys, have met His Majesty the Tang Dynasty."
"Hahahaha, okay, all the Tibetan envoys, please forgive me!"
"Thank you, His Majesty the Tang Dynasty."
"I don't know who the Tubo envoy is from Tibet and what his identity is. What is the purpose of his visit to the Tang Dynasty this time?"
"Replying to His Majesty the Tang Dynasty, the foreign envoy's name is Lu Dongzan, and he is the Prime Minister of Tubo.
We have come as envoys to the Tang Dynasty under the orders of Tubo Zanpu, hoping to communicate and trade with the Tang Dynasty on an equal footing.
This time I came to the Tang Dynasty from Tubo and brought some gifts to present to His Majesty the Tang Dynasty.
We know that the Central Plains is rich in products, but His Majesty the Tang Dynasty may not be able to appreciate these things.
However, there is an old saying in the Central Plains, "Essence is light but affection is heavy, and goose feathers are sent thousands of miles away." This also represents the sincerity of the Tibetan people.
Someone come."
As Lu Dongzan finished speaking, several soldiers stepped forward and opened a box.
"Your Majesty the Tang Dynasty, these are our Tubo specialties, highland barley noodles and highland barley wine.
These are horns, yak hides, and some yak dried meat.
In addition to these, there are also snow lotuses produced in our Tianshen Mountain.
The snow lotus on the Tianshen Mountain is a good medicine in Tubo, and only the most noble people will use it.
We believe that His Majesty the Tang Dynasty is the most noble person in Tibet among us.
So we also picked the snow lotus from Tianshen Mountain and brought it over with us.
In addition to these, there are also some other specialties, please like His Majesty the Tang Dynasty."
Li Er burst out laughing when he heard this.
"Hahahaha, not bad, thank you envoys for the gifts.
It’s just that I feel that Lu Dongzan, Prime Minister, and you, the Central Plains speaker, speak very well.
Have you ever been to the Central Plains before?"
Returning to His Majesty the Tang Dynasty, the foreign envoy and my ancestors once came to study and live in the Central Plains for a period of time.
So I also know that the Central Plains has a profound culture and rich products.
After returning to Tubo, I was thinking about when I would have the opportunity to come to the Central Plains again.
Until today, I had the opportunity to visit the Central Plains.
"Hahahaha, that's it, that's it.
Now tell me, which tribe of Tubo are you from?"
"Replying to His Majesty the Tang Dynasty, we have no tribes in Tubo.
We, Tubo, have been completely unified under the leadership of our Zampu. There are no longer distinctions between tribes, and we are all Tubo people.
We are here to represent the whole of Tibet, and the same applies to today’s mission to the Tang Dynasty.”
"Oh I got it.
Tubo I have heard of this before, and it is said that it is in bits and pieces.
I didn’t expect that Tubo would be unified, hahahaha, I guess you Zampu is also a capable person, right?”
"Yes, Your Majesty the Tang Dynasty, I, Zampu of Tubo, am only in my early 20s and in my prime.
I believe that under the leadership of me, Tubo Zampu, we Tubo people will surely be able to move forward further and further.
We hope to get along with the Tang Dynasty on an equal footing and trade with each other. I believe that if we get along with Tubo in the Tang Dynasty, we will surely prosper together."
After Li Er heard this, he laughed.
Why does it feel like this group of Tubo people are following me to show off their power?
Sure enough, what the wise brother said is right. This Tubo boy just wanted to come to Datang today to do some small things.
But if they want to do small things, I'm afraid it won't be that simple.
"Hahahaha, what Prime Minister Lu Dongzan said is quite reasonable. Yes, our country, the Tang Dynasty, is vast and rich in resources.
You know quite a lot, after you leave Chang'an City, I will arrange for someone to prepare some more gifts for you, so don't worry!"
"Thank you, His Majesty the Tang Dynasty."
"As for trade and peaceful coexistence, I am sure.
As long as you don’t invade our borders with the Tang Dynasty, we, the Tang Dynasty, can live with Tibet as equals!"
"Thank you, His Majesty the Tang Dynasty."
While saying this, Nalu Dongzan saluted again.
"Dear Your Majesty the Tang Dynasty, in addition to this, the foreign envoy also brought some other things.
When I was studying the culture of the Central Plains before, I heard an old saying from the Central Plains.
Friends don't know each other without fighting, friends can learn from each other.
We think that we are no match for the Tang Dynasty, but we just want to compete with the Tang Dynasty and learn from the Tang Dynasty.
I wonder if His Majesty the Tang Dynasty can give permission?"
