At the foot of Tiandu Mountain, there is gurgling water, green grass, and countless herds of cattle and sheep strolling at the foot of Tiandu Mountain.

Liang Yibu led the horse and came to a mountain peak accompanied by the guards.

On this mountain, there is a solemn royal temple called Fayan Temple.

The abbot of the temple led all the monks to greet him at the gate of the temple early.

"Amitabha!"

"The poor monk respectfully welcomes the Prime Minister."

Liang Yibu was also a devout Buddhist and quickly returned the gesture by folding his hands.

Then, under the guidance of the abbot, we entered the Fayan Temple.

This Fayan Temple is not only the royal temple of Dabai Gao Kingdom, but also the place of Longxing of the Liang family.

It was here that Yizong and the Queen Mother of Daliang first met, got acquainted and got to know each other.

Therefore, starting from Liang Yibu's father Liang Yimi, every time the Liang family came to Tiandu Mountain, they would come here to offer incense and pray to Buddha to bless the Liang family's prosperity.

The Buddha is indeed worthy of the Liang family and worships him year after year.

God bless Liang indeed!

Now, Bingchang is dead, the little Wuzu is less than four years old, and the Liang family's empress dowager is in charge of the affairs behind the curtain.

The only fly in the ointment is that the southern barbarians in the south refuse to agree to give the Liang family any annual gifts.

Not to mention the same three million strings as the Northern Dynasties.

Even if it's one million dollars, I won't give it to you.

They only agreed to start market research and allow Dabai Gao's green salt to enter Shaanxi for sale. This would give Dabai Gao another shop in Bianjing City.

This greatly disappointed Liang Yibu.

Wei Mingjia and other wealthy families have been discussing it privately these days.

Therefore, Liang Yibu had to win over the wealthy and nobles on the one hand and offer more benefits to appease those people.

On the other hand, he could only build up his troops, accumulate food and grass in the Tiandu Mountain area, and wait for the opportunity.

As soon as he had the opportunity, he led his army southward and fiercely captured the Southern Dynasty to establish his prestige.

This is also the tradition of Dangxiang.

Victory can heal everything.

Money can appease everyone.

Liang Yibu led his people into the Main Hall, where monks were already there and had prepared incense.

Liang Yibu came forward holding the incense, knelt on the futon, and prayed eloquently to the Buddha statue with downturned brows.

At this time, a young attendant hurriedly came to the main hall.

When he saw Liang Yibu praying, he quickly stopped and waited quietly for Liang Yibu to finish praying.

Liang Yibu had noticed him in advance.

He bowed his head again to the Buddha statue, then stood up and inserted the incense stick into the incense burner.

The attendant slowly walked up to him and reported in a low voice: "Prime Minister, Jie Wachan, the son of Qingyi Jieguizhang, the chief leader of Tubo Hezhou, has been sent to the palace by the envoy."

Liang Yibu was extremely happy.

He looked at the solemn Buddha statue, bowed and worshiped again: "Believe me, Liang Yibu, thank you Buddha for your blessing!"

Jiewachan is Qingyi Jieguizhang's favorite eldest son and his chosen heir.

Since October last year, Liang Yibu has been in continuous contact with Ali Gu of Tibet.

However, Na Ali was stubborn, and no matter how much he tried to persuade him, he would only agree verbally. As long as the Dabai Gao Kingdom took action against the Southern Barbarians, he would lead the Tibetan army south to support and contain them.

Aligu was asked to send a proton as proof of trust between the two countries, but he refused.

It can be said that there is no sincerity!

If you really believe Ali Gu, you may turn around and if the war goes wrong, Ali Gu's army will not go south, but towards Xingqing Mansion.

All Party members are well aware of this.

Each of the six Tubo tribes in the Qing and Tang dynasties is counted as one.

From Wen Puqi, Li Lizun to Xisiluo to Dong Fei and now Ali Gu.

They are all little people whose hearts and lungs were pecked out and eaten by crows.

Before the founding of the country, Dangxiang had been repeatedly stabbed and hurt by him.

After the founding of the country, he was even more hurt and burst into tears.

Especially the Battle of Zongge River is still the biggest defeat that the party members have ever suffered.

Even Jing Zong (Yuan Hao) almost died in Zong Ge River.

The army that followed the expedition was not even one out of ten.

Therefore, Liang Yibu didn't believe Ali Gu's words at all. He only thought that this guy was two-faced and a completely sinister villain.

If you believe his lies, you may not even know how you died.

At the time of the stalemate, someone in the delegation that came to Xingqing Mansion for negotiations on behalf of Aligu quietly contacted Liang Yibu and came to discuss with Liang Yibu a joint military expedition in the name of Qingyi, the leader of Hezhou.

This made Liang Yibu overjoyed!

Qingyi Jieguizhang was the leader of one of the six tribes of Tubo.

Although he is inferior to Ali, his own strength should not be underestimated.

More than ten years ago, it was this man who defeated the Southern Barbarian army at the foot of Tabai City, killed the Southern Barbarian general Jing Sili and others, and stopped the Southern Barbarian expansion momentum.

It was precisely because of that battle that he became famous all over the world.

Even the late emperor of the Southern Barbarians was said to have lamented the defeat at Tabaicheng and had no choice but to confer an official title on him.

Today, he is the training envoy of Ganzhou regiment granted by the Southern Barbarians.

But his hostility towards the southern barbarians was obvious to all in the northwest.

It is said that the head of the Southern Barbarian general Jing Sili who was killed by him was kept in his mount's bag to show off his military exploits.

For Liang Yibu, if he could form a ghost chapter alliance with Qingyi, he could form a pincer attack on the Nanman Xihe Road.

Qingyi formed a ghost chapter to attack Xizhou, and he attacked Lanzhou.

The southern barbarians were told that the head and tail should not care about each other.

Therefore, in the past few months, Liang Yibu has been in close contact with Qingyi Jiegui Zhang.

Finally, now, these connections are bearing fruit.

Qingyi Jie Guizhang sent his eldest son and heir Jie Wachan as a hostage.

Sincerity is already full.

Liang Yibu's suspicions and speculations about Qingyi Jieguizhang disappeared immediately after Jiewachan was sent to him.

He knew very well that for the Tubo people.

How rare it is to have an adult son who is chosen as an heir.

It is no exaggeration to say that once there is someone, there will be no adult heir.

His tribe will inevitably be in chaos, and all kinds of careerists will emerge.

Especially considering that after the death of Dong Fei, the Tubo people were in chaos in the country.

Although Ali Gu killed all the bloodline of Jisiluo.

But there are side branches, making noise and gathering crowds in their country.

Among them, Wenba Creek, which occupies Xige City, is the most dazzling.

Wenba Xi is the descendant of Zhensiluo's elder brother, Zhenshiyonglong, and also has the blood of Tubo Zampu, but his prestige is not as good as that of Zunsiluo.

Now, I will die if I die, and I will run away if I can.

Wenbaxi seized the opportunity and rebelled. According to the intelligence obtained by Liang Yibu, Wenbaxi's rebellion was suppressed by Qingyi Jieguizhang and his army.

But Wenba Creek is not dead.

He led his troops into the mountains in the southwest and won the support of the local Tubo tribe and Qiang people.

Therefore, under such a situation, Qingyi Jie Guizhang sent his heir to Dabai Gao Kingdom as a pledge, and his sincerity was beyond imagination.

Because, once Jie Wa Shi is lost, the land of Jiuqu in Henan that Qingyi Jie Guizhang finally obtained may be recaptured by Wenba River.

With such joy, Liang Yibu immediately went down the mountain and saw the man Jie Wachan who had been sent as a proton in the palace in Tiandu Mountain.

He was a young man in his twenties, wearing the traditional round-necked red robe of the Tibetan people, with slightly red skin and very bright eyes.

When he saw Liang Yibu, he immediately stroked his chest and said, "Jie Wachan has met the Prime Minister of Dabai Gao Kingdom."
