As the truth is eternal, the calculations of man are not as good as those of heaven. Zhi Sai Dang Ru Gongdun and Niang Chisang Yangdun calculated well. However, just after returning to the base camp of Lacheng, the cold north wind struck again.

A severe snowstorm once again hit the Tubo Plateau, and heavy snow fell so thick that no one could see the shadows of people and animals ten meters away.

Looking at the snowflakes all over the sky, Zhisai Dangru Gongdun and Niang Chisang Yangdun looked at each other.

"Brother, what are you doing?"

"Brother, God is not as good as man, so be it."

"But we might be embarrassed in the future if we do this, brother."

"There's nothing we can do about it. God is protecting that tribe and it has nothing to do with us."

"It's true. Forget it, let's wait until spring next year. Besides, I feel now that even if we go to fight, the people below may not want to go. After all, it is said that they are a guardian clan."

"Oh, yes"

After a useless conversation, the two returned to their room, drank butter tea and looked at the sky, waiting for the arrival of spring.

Zhisai Dangru Gongdun and Niang Chisang Yangdun took people to the Tang camp. Songtsen Gampo and the Dalai Lama were not fools for such a high-profile action. The blind man naturally saw it.

Songtsen Gampo, who was hiding in his palace for the winter, got the specific information about their trip to the Tang camp from the spies he placed with Zhi Sai Dang Ru Gong Dun and Niang Chi Sang Yang Dun.

"Sir, Zhisai Dangru Gongdun and mother Chisang Yangdun were kindly received by Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong, the generals in charge of the Tang camp."

"The two parties conducted enthusiastic sports activities, exchanges of emotions and questions, determined the general principles and policies for future cooperation and development between the two parties, and looked forward to a bright future together."

The spy's eloquent description made Songtsen Gampo feel a little nervous and became even more nervous. There was a lot of information. He really didn't expect that the Tang Dynasty valued Zhisaidanru Gongdun and Niangchisang Yangdun so much.

, the more important thing is that they have joined forces with Datang.

Even if Lu Dongzan defeated the Dalai Lama in the future, if he wanted to obtain the title of King of Tubo from the Tang Dynasty, he would still have to pass the test of Zhi Sai Dang Ru Gong Dun and Niang Chi Sang Yang Dun.

The original 1v1v1 mutual restraint situation became the possibility of both them and the Dalai Lama achieving 1v3, and what was left behind was Datang's attitude towards them.

After waving the spies back for a drink of water, Lu Dongzan felt worried. He plucked the rosary beads and began to think about whether he could find conditions that were beneficial to him. He could use the opportunity to compete with the Tang Dynasty and support Ru Gongdun and his mother Chisang Yangdun.

If negotiations are not possible, tribal autonomy can be achieved.

After thinking about it, Songtsen Gampo felt that if he could not get the title of vassal king, then he could be a king or a county prince. As long as he could keep his current independent status, he would enter the stage of hiding his power and biding his time to strengthen himself and wait for the Tang Dynasty.

It is decay, just like those nomadic tribes in Chinese history who submitted to the powerful dynasty in the Central Plains. They surrendered to him when he was strong, and when he decayed, he turned into a hungry wolf and ate his flesh to strengthen himself.

Feeling that this was a good idea, Songtsen Gampo happily moved his body, which made him look fatter. He opened his mouth and shouted happily: "Come here, please come and see me."

"Yes, Lord Songtsen Gampo"

At any moment, Songtsen Gampo was waiting at the door to order the guards to leave in a hurry and find Lu Dongtsen.

The heavy snow that filled the sky just after leaving the house fell on the guard's open neck. The cold made the guard shrink his neck subconsciously.

"It's so damn cold. In this weird winter, I don't know what Tubo will be like in the future."

The guard muttered a few words and hurried towards Lu Dongzan's residence.

As they walked along the roadside and saw the ruins caused by the civil war some time ago, the guard couldn't help feeling another burst of emotion in his heart.

He didn't know what Tubo would be like in the spring of next year, and he didn't want to know, as long as he and his family could survive next year's turmoil.

After going through the identity check in the wind and snow, the guards came to Lu Dongzan's study. At this time, Lu Dongzan was dealing with trivial matters in his camp.

The guards who saw Songtsen Gampo came and put down the pen in their hands and asked him: "What are your orders from Lord Songtsen Gampo?"

Guard: "Lord Ludongzan, Lord Songtsen Gampo are recruiting people to come over to discuss matters."

Lu Dongzan looked at the heavy snow outside: "What's the important matter?"

The guard scratched his head: "Maybe it's because the two leaders Ru Gongdun and Niang Chisang Yangdun came back from Zhisai. I'm just guessing, I don't know if it's right or not."

"I understand, wait a minute." Lu Dongzan handed over his work to his deputy, explained his ideas, put on a cloak to keep out the cold, and left with his bodyguards.

The group of people braved the wind and snow to arrive at the lounge where Songtsen Gampo lived. The guards stepped out and Ludongtsen took off his cloak and handed it to the attendants beside him.

"Lord Songtsen Gampo"

Songtsen Gampo patted the bed beside him: "Dongtsen, come and sit."

Ludongzan did not refuse the enthusiastic Songtsen Gampo and sat next to him.

Songtsen Gampo was in a good mood and gave Lu Dongtsen a cup of hot butter tea: "Dongtsen, drink a cup to warm yourself up."

"More adults"

Looking at the butter tea handed to him by Songtsan Gampulu, who didn't know why he was so enthusiastic, Dongzan took the tea cup with both hands, held it in his hands and felt the warmth of the hot tea, and took a sip of the delicious tea.

"My lord, I don't know why you recruited me."

Lu Dongzan said with a smile: "I have already thought of how to preserve our method."

(.＾＾)

"What can you do, sir?"

"Didn't Zhisai Dangru Gongdun and Niang Chisang Yangdun take people to Datang's camp some time ago? Not long after they came back, they heard that they had reached a cooperation with Datang. By then, they would probably cooperate with Datang.

, they will defeat us and the Dalai Lama in the spring of next year, and they will become the vassal kings."

Lu Dongzan looked at Songtsen Gampo carefully and looked at the other person's enthusiastic look. He was a little worried and asked him: "Sir, are you okay? Do you have a cold or fever? Do you want me to find a doctor?"

Take a look"

Lu Dongzan politely asked Songtsen Gampo if his brain was burned out. The other party was cooperating with the Tang Dynasty and would hang us from the rafters next spring. Don't worry if you are still here and are happy.

Hearing the meaning of Lu Dongzan's words, Songtsen Gampo waved his hand and explained to Lu Dongzan: "I'm fine, I don't have a cold or fever. I was thinking, why should I support Ru Gongdun and Niang Chisang Yangdun?"

They can form an alliance with the Tang Dynasty, but we can't. If they want a vassal king, we need a county king. If they want a county king, we need a county prince. If that doesn't work, we need a marquis. As long as we can survive this time, we will wait for the Tang Dynasty.

Following the decay of those Central Plains dynasties, we can make a comeback and rebuild the glory of Tubo."

Lu Dongzan looked at the somewhat crazy Songtsen Gampo and made a big plan for him: "What if the Tang Dynasty hangs us from the beams? I think we can have another way, the effect will be better!"
