After Lu Dongzan finished speaking, he turned his head and muttered to the man.
They spoke all in Tubo language, and I don’t know what the two of them said.
The man bowed and stepped aside.
"Your Majesty the Tang Dynasty, please forgive our Tubo warriors for our recklessness.
We, the Tubo people, admire warriors and hold a challenge between warriors every year."
When Thalu Dongtsen said this, any smart person would already understand what it meant.
Are these Tubo people planning to use force to confront us, the Tang Dynasty?
In this case, if I disagree, wouldn't I be telling the world that I, the people of the Tang Dynasty, are scared?
I, the Tang Dynasty, are still afraid that they will not succeed in Tubo. It is really unreasonable.
"Hey, Lu Dong praised the Prime Minister, this martial arts competition is a good thing.
Don't criticize this warrior because of what he said.
Yes, there are countless talented people in our Tang Dynasty. If this warrior wants to learn from each other.
We also have countless soldiers who want to compete with them.
You tell him this."
"It's His Majesty the Tang Dynasty."
Lu Dongzan turned around and translated the words. When the Tubo man in front of him heard the words, he showed joy and nodded in agreement.
Then he turned around, clenched his fists, and looked at the group of them.
Seeing the civil servants and generals in their palace, their eyes were full of desire for blood.
Seeing this scene, Li Er didn't hesitate and spoke directly.
"My dear friends, I believe you have heard what the Tibetan envoy said.
This Tibetan warrior wants to come to our country and compete with us, what do you think?"
After hearing what His Majesty said, all the soldiers looked happy.
In this case, if you don't understand what the Tubo people mean, you might as well just find a piece of tofu and hit the wall directly.
Is this Tubo kid coming here to cause trouble?
The surrounding soldiers all quickly stood up.
What this Tubo boy said and did was the biggest provocation to all the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.
It can be said that a scholar can tolerate it, but no one can tolerate it.
"Your Majesty, I am finally willing to spar with this Tubo man."
"Yes, Your Majesty, this Tubo man has traveled thousands of miles to come to our country, the Tang Dynasty, just to compete with the soldiers of our country.
If we don't even agree to this matter, our soldiers will do it.
If this spreads out, it will violate the way we treat guests in the Tang Dynasty."
Yes, yes, as everyone said, they looked over with disdain.
Since they, a group of Tubo people, want to come here to cause trouble, they must not be allowed to succeed.
For a moment, everyone's eyes were fixed on this group of Tibetans, as if if they said one more word, they would promise not to destroy them all.
Li Er heard this and nodded.
"My dear friends, I already know what you said.
Tubo envoy, I agree to this matter.
It's just that you just came to our country, Datang, yesterday. You have been working hard this week and you must not have had a good rest yet.
If we directly participate in the competition, even if Datang wins, we will still be defeated.
In this way, I will give you five days of rest. Take advantage of these five days to have a good rest.
If you have nothing to do, I can also ask someone to take you to visit Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty.
How about letting you experience the prosperity of Chang'an?"
"In that case, I would like to thank His Majesty the Tang Dynasty!"
"Alright, Tibetan envoys, apart from today's matters, do you have anything else to do?
If you have other things to do, just say it directly. If you have nothing else to do, go back to Honglu Temple first and have a good rest."
"Thank you, His Majesty the Tang Dynasty."
"Okay, I have arranged the royal kitchen and prepared the meals. You can have a good meal!"
"Thank you, His Majesty the Tang Dynasty. We have nothing else to do, so the envoy will retire first."
After Lu Dongzan finished speaking, he turned and left accompanied by several Tang officials.
I left behind the various items I brought here.
Li Er waved his hand and asked people to carry these items away.
Seeing them all leaving, the whole court began to discuss again.
Everyone's expressions became very unhappy, and Li Er looked at everyone coldly.
"My dear friends, what do you think of this matter?"
"Your Majesty, since these Tibetan children have come to the Tang Dynasty to provoke us.
If we don't suppress them severely, we will destroy their spirit.
They really don’t know how high the sky is and how many bodies the earth has.”
"Yes, Your Majesty, these Tubo children came to our country, the Tang Dynasty, and they were so provocative.
If we don't deal with them severely, do they really think that Datang is easy to bully me?
For a moment, everyone looked very unhappy. This time this Tibetan kid came to our Datang Dynasty just to cause trouble.
If we, the Tang Dynasty, let people who make trouble like this go again.
Doesn't this tell the world that any small tribe can take control of the Tang Dynasty at will?
"Your Majesty, let me tell you that these Tubo people came to our country in the Tang Dynasty because they had no good intentions.
This time I just wanted to come here to spy on the strength of Datang.
Since he said that Tubo has been unified, this unified Tubo has never gone to war with the Tang Dynasty.
And they came here this time to have friendly contact with us.
In fact, I just want to explore the true strength of the Tang Dynasty through civil and military combat.
In terms of literary competition, that is, what they were talking about just now was competing with me, the Tang Dynasty.
They lost, so they said that some Tibetan warrior was competing with us.
If we say that in our battle in five days, I, Datang, will lose.
It is possible that the Tibetan people at the southwest border will be invaded by them after they return to their territory."
What, these Tubo children actually want to invade my southwest border of Tang Dynasty?
Hearing this, all the soldiers showed bad expressions.
Because of the occurrence of this situation, all the soldiers also understood the true purpose of the Tibetan people.
Thinking that communication is fake and spying on information is real.
One wave has not yet started, but another wave comes.
On the contrary, all the clan members showed their joy.
The struggle between the Turks in the north and the Tang Dynasty was closely watched.
And now there is Tubo in the southwest. Doesn’t this mean that they will continue to have trouble with the Tang Dynasty?
This is causing trouble with the Tang Dynasty and Tubo, making the emperor feel uncomfortable. Isn't this in their interests?
For a moment, everyone's eyes were darting around, which was a good thing.
Of course, with this situation now, everyone is filled with indignation, and it is inconvenient for them to say anything.
So I just stood aside quietly, unmoved.
"Yes, I think so about this matter.
According to my decree, within these five days, several soldiers with superb martial arts skills will be selected from our military camp in Datang.
After waiting for 5 days, fight with the Tubo people.
We can only succeed in this competition and cannot fail!"
"It's your Majesty!"
After hearing this, everyone understood why His Majesty set the duel five days later.
It must be because of the sudden duel between the Tubo people. Who knows if there will be an accident if they suddenly jump out?
If by that time, things develop in the opposite direction, it will be troublesome.
Speaking of this, everyone sighed secretly.
Your Majesty is wise and mighty, so this gave them a few days to prepare.
Rather than giving everyone a slap in the face if something happens.
"Okay, if you don't want to leave the court in advance."
Then he called a few people by name and asked them to stay with him and go to the Tai Chi Hall to discuss the matter!
"This is Your Majesty. I would like to send you off to Your Majesty."
