Chapter 721 Lu Dongzan's ambition
Buns, millet porridge, tea eggs, pickles.
The breakfast at the Wei family was very simple. Xu Hui was dressed up early and sat on the table. The fitness Wei Buyuan and Xiao Chang'e also came to the table to sit down. Xiao Jinzhi came to the table with a thick book and sat down on Wei Buyuan's left hand.
After waiting for a long time, Wu Mei went downstairs. Wei Jiu frowned and asked the girl that she stayed up late last night. Xu Hui nodded lightly and served three bowls of porridge to three little ones. Xiao Qingsheng took the bowl and said sweetly, "Thank you sister." Then he handed the porridge to Wei Buyuan, and then handed it to Xiao Jinzhi a bowl. He said in a singular manner that Xiao Jinzhi was too thin and he should eat more, otherwise he would not grow taller in the future.
And she is different, she is born with beauty.
With outsiders present, Xiao Jinzhi did not make a fuss with Xiao Chang'e very stiff. She grabbed the buns with both hands and didn't drink a mouthful of porridge.
Wei Jiu didn't often eat breakfast at home, but he heard about it a little bit. He stood up and served a bowl of porridge and laughed at Lu Dong.
"What? Are you still waiting for me to serve you? Everyone has arrived. Those who haven't appeared should be still sleeping and serving your own meal."
Lu Dongzan served a bowl of porridge unnaturally. He held the habit of not saying anything and not saying anything, but the dining table was very lively. Xu Hui whispered to Wei Jiu, and Xiao Chang'e and Xiao Jinzhi continued the war without gunpowder.
"Jinzhi should eat more eggs."
Xiao Qingcheng smiled sinisterly. After a long time, she also figured out what Xiao Jinzhi liked to eat and what she didn't like. This egg was Xiao Jinzhi's dislike the most. At this time, Xiao Jinzhi didn't give her face. She used chopsticks to blow it in Wei Buyuan's bowl, and then continued to eat buns, completely ignoring Xiao Chang'e's devil. At this time, Wu Mei rubbed her eyes downstairs, walked behind Xiao Chang'e, and reached out to pat her forehead.
"Eat a good meal, give me an egg. Xu Hui, you are complaining behind your back. When Master is not at home, I will check your body carefully. Huh? Master, are you at home? Who is this old man?"
Bang!
Wei Jiu's chopsticks hit Wu Mei's head and cursed with a smile.
"You only saw me, a big man? Every girl is from every family. Get up early in the future. This is the prime minister of Tubo. Just call Uncle Lu."
"oh!"
Wu Mei said oh, and there was no more text. At this time, Lu Dongzan was looking at the children at this table. The two older girls were absolutely beauties and had extreme temperaments. Those two young ones, even though they were young, would be a disaster when they grew up.
The women of the Wei family seemed to be the first-class beauty. They ate very quickly. After the meal, Wu Mei and Xu Hui went to wash dishes. Wei Buyuan had to do his homework with Jinzhi. Xiao Qingcheng was very resistant to learning. She thought that recognizing words was enough.
Lu Dongzan had no intention of leaving. The two sat on the sofa. After a moment of silence, Lu Dongzan spoke.
"Now Gaochang has an antonym. If the Tang Dynasty sent troops, would it be a shame to the vassal state? The banquet of the Hundred Kings was just held, and then it sent troops to attack. This inevitably makes people think that not surrendering means death."
Wei Jiu looked at Lu Dongzan with a squinted eyes and frowned.
"The reason why these countries now vassals of the Tang Dynasty is that they can't beat it, no! Why do you always want to attack Gaochang? Tuyuhun doesn't want it?"
"How about Tuyuhun returning to the Tang Dynasty? When Tubo conquered Gaochang, he would serve it with both hands."
What was Lu Dongzan thinking about this grandson? Wei Jiu was a little confused. This was obviously a loss-making business. He was kicked by a donkey. When Wei Jiu was confused, Wu Mei wiped her hands and walked into the living room and said with a sweet smile.
"Tubo is the great minister, don't fiddle with it here if you have any thoughts. Gaochang is an important country? His name is Gaochang Aichang, which is not important to the Tang Dynasty. It is important that he clamps the Silk Road. How can this be given to you Tubo?"
Lu Dongzan turned his head and looked at the handsome and indifferent girl, frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice.
"Tubo will not occupy Gaochang."
At this time, Xu Hui walked into the living room with the water stains on her hand and said with a faint smile.
"When you Tubo is opening a road? Use war as an excuse to let the merchants of both countries pass through your Tubo territory. By then, the merchants of the Tang Dynasty will become thorns in your side, let you slaughter the meat in your plate, or raise them first. When the Silk Road is completely abandoned, will you Tubo take action to manage this road?"
The two girls sat next to Wei Jiu, one left and one right. Xu Hui's words reminded Lu Dongzan, but they could have strangled the thought to death. He felt troublesome. These two girls were a bit too intrusive.
Lu Dongzan suddenly sneered.
"Wei Fox, is the rules in your family like this? Can the elders speak when they talk to each other?"
Wei Jiu leaned on the sofa, stretched out his hand to put his shoulders on the two girls, and laughed softly.
"My two daughters are not more comfortable at home? Don't talk to me about the rules that are not available. Gaochang would not give it to you. If it weren't for the two of them reminding me, I almost agreed to you. I still said the same thing, you go to the west to borrow money from you Tubo, ask for weapons and war horses, or this is the case! How about you attack the Western Turks? The price is easy to negotiate."
Western Turks? What's the use of this? At that time, both sides will suffer losses, and the Tang Dynasty will reap the benefits of the fisherman, and Lu Dongzan only wants Gaochang.
Attacking Gaochang will not have any impact on Tubo. Once the Silk Road is blocked, the Western Regions will have to trade with Tubo. At that time, the Tang Dynasty will be closed to the country, and development will inevitably stagnate or even regress.
So what if there is a Wei Wuliang? Without trade between countries, the resources of the Tang Dynasty were completely insufficient, and the Tang Dynasty would not receive any news from the outside world.
Now the Tang Dynasty proposed the assimilation trend, which obviously wanted to annex the surrounding countries. To put it nicely, it was the assimilation trend, and to put it bluntly, it was to let you live according to the habits of the Tang Dynasty. Then your monarch was named officials of the Tang Dynasty and sent some officials, in name only to help, but in fact it was to slowly undermine the rights of the monarch of its country.
Lu Dongzan saw everything clearly, but what can I do?
Resist? Who in the world can defeat the Tang Empire now? Wherever the Iron Cavalry of the Tang Dynasty passes, no grass will grow.
Once upon a time! The Turks could have the power to fight against the Tang Dynasty, but a guy from Li Jing appeared, and he changed the situation.
Later! Tubo had the power to fight against the Tang Dynasty, but a guy named Wei Wuliang jumped out of the crack of the stone, and even threatened to conquer Goguryeo, who could not conquer three times for His Majesty.
Now! No country in the world can challenge the Tang Dynasty.
Some countries that once vassalized Tubo also turned against the Tang camp, and Lu Dongzan was dissatisfied.
He gritted his teeth.
"Wei Fox, if you continue like this, the Tang Empire will definitely have civil strife!"
