Doesn’t Li Yifu understand the principle of “short man’s hands and soft-hearted man’s mouth”?

Of course he understood.

But he is not a gentleman, and he is a complete villain. He will take the money first. As for whether he can help you, it depends on what it is. If he can help, he will help you. If he can't help, don't blame me. Who wants you to give gifts so urgently? Moreover, you are a Tubo person, even if you don't help you, you will have no choice but to do anything to me.

When Lu Dongzan saw that Li Yifu accepted it openly, he could not understand it, but he was sure to take back the reward. This was not an era of integrity.

After this money beauty, it will naturally be delicious wine and food!

The two of them drank and talked about each other, and they really felt like they met too late!

Although Lu Dongzan does not understand the poems and songs of the Central Plains, he is eloquent and praises Li Yifu so much that he almost surpasses Fang Xuanling.

Li Yi's mansion is very useful. Before this, he has been unsuccessful. Even now, few people look down on him, so they almost regarded Lu Dongzan as their most confidant in their life. However, he is not a fool, and he is also curious why Lu Dongzan suddenly invited him. Li Zhi arranged for Han Yi to entertain Lu Dongzan. Although this is diplomacy, it involves the internal affairs of the Tang Dynasty. Because he didn't want Han Yi to take the limelight, he asked casually: "Grand Prime Minister, did your Majesty ask Han Minister to entertain you? I wonder where Han Minister Han took Da Xiang to have a trip recently?"

It seems that he is more anxious than me! Lu Dongzan's face changed slightly and he remained silent.

Sure enough, something happened! Li Yifu tentatively said again: "Did Mr. Han not entertain the grand appearance?"

"Oh! No, no!"

Lu Dongzan wanted to speak but stopped, and said in panic: "Master, I dare to ask, is it - Is it because I did something wrong and hit Your Majesty. If this is true, I would like to apologize to Your Majesty in person."

Li Yifu was stunned and asked hurriedly: "What do you mean by Da Xiang?"

Lu Dong praised: "Otherwise, why did Your Majesty send a young boy to entertain me? I heard that there was Duke Song accompanying him on Nuohobo. Could it be that I was proposing my lord for that day that day, which made Your Majesty unhappy?"

Li Yifu said: "Of course not." He paused and said: "Master may not know that the little princess who had just been born a few years ago unfortunately died. This may have caused Your Majesty to take care of the princess more and he is reluctant to let the princess go away. However, Your Majesty cannot blame the Prime Minister for this. Although Mr. Han is young, he is already of the third rank, and his official position is the same as mine."

This is very good, reasonable and well-founded, and he would not say that Li Zhi was confused and didn't even understand the most basic etiquette.

"I see!"

Lu Dongzan really believed it and thought to himself, it seems that he should not mention the proposal of marriage in the future.

Li Yifu continued to test: "Da Xiang, did Mr. Han say something that made Da Xiang misunderstand?"

"The misunderstanding is not a question." Lu Dongzan waved his hand, thinking that this guy was concerned about Han Yi in one's heart. It seemed that the gap between them was even bigger than I thought. He said, "Maybe Mr. Han is young and energetic, and he speaks a little aggressively. I will not hide it from Mr. Li. Since I met Mr. Han, I have not had a good sleep these few nights. Every time I close my eyes, I dreamed that because of me, the Tang Dynasty broke up with Tubo, and the iron hooves of the Tang Dynasty flattened the Tubo palace."

Li Yifu said horror: "Where does this start? Your Majesty asked Minister Han to mediate your fight with Tuyuhun, which is really a kind intention."

Lu Dong praised: "But what Mr. Han said made me feel as if the Tang Dynasty was going to send troops to attack me. Mr. Li, you have to believe me. We Tubo has no intention of being an enemy of the Tang Dynasty, and we don't have the courage. Let me just say it. When Mr. Han pacified the northwest, some tribal leaders on the border of my Tubo were actually married to some tribal chiefs of my Tubo. My lord was afraid that the tribes in the north would conflict with the Tang army, so he quickly ordered me to lead troops to the border and ordered those tribes not to act rashly, and then sent people to negotiate with the Tang army. At that time, Tiankang was as kind as a mountain, and I always remembered that our Tubo was the most central vassal state in the Tang Dynasty and would never be able to be an enemy of the Tang Dynasty."

"Don't be afraid of the great minister. Your Majesty attaches great importance to the relationship between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo. As for what to send troops, it is even more nonsense." Li Yifu waved his hand and said.

Lu Dongzan wondered, "Then why did Mr. Han---!"

Speaking of this, he sighed and told Li Yifu the whole story. Of course, he exaggerated Han Yi's tone.

There was such a thing! Li Yifu pondered slightly and said with a smile: "The Prime Minister did not know him when he first dealt with Mr. Han. He was born in a farmer family and had bad habits in the market. Although he was of the same third rank, his bad habits were hard to change. He was a businessman, so he liked to bluff and make a fool of himself. Just listen to his words, don't believe it." Afterwards, he looked contemptuous.

This person is really a villain. If this person can replace Changsun Wuji, that would be a blessing for me in Tubo! I have to help him with my help. Lu Dongzan smiled in his heart. As a diplomat, Han Yi, as a diplomat, you can't say that, aren't you slapped yourself in the face? But he said, "No, so when I saw Your Majesty asks such a young official from Minister Han to discuss this matter, I was frightened and worried. I was afraid that Your Majesty was provoked by Murong and deliberately alienated me in Tubo."

Finally, there was a wise man! Li Yifu waved his hand and said, "You can rest assured about this. Our Tang Dynasty just doesn't want your two families to continue fighting. After all, you are all vassal states of our Tang Dynasty. It's not good to favor either side. Moreover, our Majesty has always advocated rest and rest, and is not willing to make a big move."

So that's it! That boy really scared me. Damn, I really let him scare him. With this sentence alone, the money given by Lu Dongzan was worth it, because Li Zhi's wishes represent the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, Li Zhi's idea was directly related to the entire situation. He poured a glass of wine for Li Yi's mansion with his own hands and said, "As long as Your Majesty did not deliberately alienate me, I will be satisfied. I will not continue to fight. We Tubo cannot hold on for too long, otherwise I would not have come all the way to ask for help. It is really the cunning and changeable Murong family, and always provokes the relationship between Tubo and Tang Dynasty, because they can provoke the battle between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo, so that they can make profits from it. This is what I worry about."

Li Yifu smiled and said, "Your Majesty is wise and powerful, how can you easily be provoked?"

"That's right, that's right, I'm too worried!" Lu Dongzan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "As long as Your Majesty still attaches importance to the relationship with me, Tubo, we, Tubo, are willing to try to fight against Tuyuhun."

Li Yifu was overjoyed and said, "Can you take this seriously?"

Lu Dongzan nodded and said, "How dare I lie to Mr. Li, but due to Murong's capricious personality, we dare not withdraw immediately, but we will try to minimize conflicts."

"So good, so good!" Li Yifu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It is rare that Da Xiang is so clear about Da Xiang, I respect Da Xiang."

Lu Dongzan saw his expression and understood in his heart that the Tang Dynasty was actually very afraid that they would send troops at this time, and they had already made up their minds. They raised their glasses to greet them. The wine glass was still hanging in the air. He suddenly sighed again.

Li Yifu was stunned and asked, "Why did the great minister sigh?"

Lu Dongzan smiled bitterly and said, "I got the same thing with Mr. Li at first sight. Everything can be said in a clear and honest way. If Your Majesty can ask Mr. Li to talk to me, it would be great. Oh, I am not saying Mr. Han is not good, but Mr. Han is too young, and I always feel a little uneasy when talking to Mr. Han."

Li Yifu's eyes flashed a few times, but he said, "Your Majesty must have the reason for this arrangement. Come on, I'll respect you a big cup."

"I dare not, I dare not!" Lu Dongzang said humbly, but said in his heart, Han Yi, this is really sorry. I must underestimate you, but you are too smart. If you are afraid of suffering a great loss when dealing with you.

The atmosphere is so happy the more you drink.

Until the evening, Li Yifu said goodbye drunk.

As soon as he got on the carriage, the two of them walked out from behind a big tree. It was Cui Pingzhong and Yuanjiu. It was a coincidence that the two of them happened to pass by here and happened to see Li Yifu walking out of the courtyard.

Yuanjiu frowned and said, "When did this villain Li Yifu collude with Lu Dongzan?"

Cui Pingzhong smiled and said, "Just just started."

"How do you know?"

"Lu Dongzan first arrived in Chang'an, and the ministers in the central government of the court, except for Li Ji, were all replaced. He probably didn't know Li Yi Mansion, Xu Jingzong and others. His Majesty arranged for Han Yi to receive them. Therefore, I think he must not be able to gain any advantage from Han Yi, so he came to Li Yi Mansion. Haha, this Lu Dongzan was a hero for a while. If Tubo was as strong as today, Lu Dongzan made an important contribution. He and Li Yi Mansion would never be like-minded. Then he would definitely have another purpose when meeting Li Yi Mansion."

"What purpose?"

"How do I know this?" Cui Pingzhong sighed: "Although Li Yifu is smart, he is just the wisdom of a villain. Compared with Lu Dongzan's great wisdom, he is still far from that of Lu Dongzan. I hope he will not do it too out of line. If the Tubo moves well, our Tang Dynasty will probably have endless troubles."

Yuanjiu frowned and said, "It's not that serious."

Cui Pingzhong said worriedly: "Although our Tang Dynasty is now full of fruits inside and outside, and it is invincible in the world, but expanding too quickly is not a good thing. Although the territory is large, there are hidden dangers everywhere. When the national strength is strong, these hidden dangers can still be covered up. But once the national strength is damaged, these hidden dangers will be exposed immediately and become a burden. In fact, Han Yi's Northwest Plan is a good plan. When the national strength is strong, rely on non-military means to eliminate these hidden dangers, but the premise is that they can be implemented smoothly.

In addition, there is Goguryeo to the east. Today, Goguryeo has been severely damaged by Emperor Taizong and has been harassed by our Tang Dynasty for many years. The national strength is far inferior to that before. However, Goguryeo borders the old land of the Eastern Turks, and the old land of the Eastern Turks is the weakest control area of ​​our Tang Dynasty. Therefore, whether out of hatred or strategic considerations, our Tang Dynasty should first eliminate Goguryeo. If it is not eliminated, it will be difficult to completely rule the old land of the Eastern Turks.
