"Enough!" Pei Xingjian shouted loudly, "Do you want me to open up a field and let your people kill a good game!"

Both Tubo and Tianzhu were silent.

"Fight!" Pei Xingjian said loudly, "How can I preside over the alliance with your appearance!"

Xue Rengui watched the scene nervously, always ready to step forward to stop the fight that was about to start between the two sides.

"Unconvinced, right?" Pei Xingjian looked at both Tubo and Tianzhu, took his wine glass down heavily, and left here with a wave of his sleeves.

The alliance could not be interrupted again.

Xue Rengui came to Pei Xingjian's side, seeing this guy's smile recently, he understood in his heart, "Did you do this on purpose?"

"That's right." Pei Xingjian looked back at the chaotic stage and said, "What Chu Suiliang told me is that the three of them can't be very comfortable and peaceful."

Chapter 772 Familiar with Songtsan Gampo in the Central Plains

"Will the court make such a decision?" Xue Rengui looked confused.

Pei Xingjian nodded slightly, "Do you think it's very self-interested at the expense of others? The thoughts in the court are not what we usually think. Everyone eats and drinks well, and it is good to be harmonious. The court still puts interests first. Choose the one that is most beneficial to Datang in the decision-making, and those guys in the court are bad."

Xue Rengui grinned, "Teacher always has a lot of bad ideas in his head, and it feels like the court has changed."

"How did it change?" Pei Xingjian stepped on the somewhat barren land.

"I can't tell, I'm just a rough person." Xue Rengui smiled a little honestly.

"Rough people are good." Pei Xingjian sighed, "Rough people don't have to think so much. The court is a big dyeing vat. Those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black. Everyone is the same."

Xue Rengui looked at Pei Xingjian, and like Di Renjie, he was Gu Qing's disciple. Pei Xingjian had gone from being a ostracized Chang'an order all the way to today's Minister of the Ministry of War. A person like him should be born to be an official, a court official, Said calmly, "You will become a person in power, and you will be more promising than me."

"What's the future?" Pei Xingjian felt the cold west wind, "I have also wanted to understand a truth for so many years, if you live for yourself in the court, you are not a good official, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Changsun Wuji, these People are famous people in the world. Wei Zheng is always worried about the emperor and the world. Fang Xuanling is full of worries. Li Jing has been in the army for half his life. They will be remembered by the world. They never thought of living for themselves. They live for the world, and it is not easy to do this, how many people can avoid the selfishness in their hearts?"

Xue Rengui could no longer understand what Pei Xingjian was talking about.

"Sometimes I wonder why the teacher rejects the court so much. Now I understand that the teacher is just a vulgar person." Pei Xingjian said with a smile.

"Di Renjie, you and I, among the three of us, I feel that you live the most comfortable life." Xue Rengui said, "Di Renjie has his persistence and can't let go. I'm still just a little general. I feel that every step you take All correct."

Pei Xingjian shook his head, only he knew how hesitant he was in the dead of night.

"Do you think His Royal Highness King Jin is the teacher's disciple?" Xue Rengui said to himself.

"That's it."

The alliance broke up unhappily and failed again. Tubo, Persia, and Tianzhu were all worried about their own interests. Pei Xingjian returned to his camp and roasted lamb at ease, and said to the little official beside him, "Go and close the business road for a while." time."

The little official at the side heard it and said doubtfully, "If you do this..."

"Those guys will be anxious, right." Pei Xingjian carefully sprinkled some crushed salt on the mutton and said, "I just want to make them anxious, or cooperate, or no one wants to do business, just do as I want .”

"Yes!"

At night, you can always hear the howling of wolves, and the yelling of soldiers outside the camp. For four consecutive days, Pei Xingjian never mentioned the matter of the alliance. He took the soldiers out to hunt every day, and it was already late at night. At that time, the King of Persia couldn't sleep, so he walked from tent to tent to the outside of Songtsan Gampo's tent. He stopped and saw the figure reflected by the candlelight inside. It seemed that he was not asleep either.

When he entered the camp, he saw Songtsan Gampo reading a book.

Songtsan Gampo looked up at the visitor and bowed slightly, "The king of Persia is still awake at night?"

"Can't sleep," whispered the King of Persia, "you can't sleep either?"

"I usually sleep less." Songtsan Gampo said with a smile, "It's funny to say that when I was in the prison in Dali Temple in Chang'an, I spent a lot of time sleeping and reading."

"Several days have passed, and that Pei Xingjian has never mentioned the matter of the alliance, and the business road has also been closed." The King of Persia looked worried, "What does he mean by doing this?"

"I'll find out in a few days." Songtsan Gampo didn't care much about the closure of the trade road. Pei Xingjian closed the trade road entrance from Tubo, which gave Tubo a good chance. Tubo is already Tang's Tubo The county, the closure of commercial roads is not harmful to Tubo, only good. If it is closed for a while, it will also lose the interests of the Indians and Persia.

There was silence in the tent for a while.

Songtsan Gampo glanced at the Persian king sitting aside and said, "It seems that Pei Xingjian has a thorough understanding of your Persia, so he did this."

"What do you mean?" asked the King of Persia.

"Nobles!" Songtsan Gampo whispered, "Pei Xingjian knows you Persia very well, and the Persian nobles have an inseparable relationship with you. If the nobles are in chaos, what will happen to Persia?"

The King of Persia immediately stood up, "Persia will be in chaos too! I'm going to see Pei Xingjian right now."

"Don't worry." Songtsan Gampo stopped the Persian king and said, "In the meeting a few days ago, he talked about the distribution of business routes. It seems that this distribution will not change. In fact, the distribution of business routes will be more important to you in Persia. There are many benefits, Tianzhu is the one who suffers, and Tianzhu should be anxious, so you must be steady."

The King of Persia looked at Songtsan Gampo in amazement and said that Songtsan Gampo was the enlightened ruler of Tubo. Gao, stood there for a long time and said, "You are a wise master."

"Whether I know the Lord or not will be determined by future generations." Songtsan Gampo said calmly.

"I think I should ask you more about some things." The King of Persia sat down again and asked Songtsan Gampo, "This is also what Pei Xingjian said. He said he knows a lot of stories about the Central Plains."

"Central Plains." Songtsan Gampo heaved a long sigh, "Central Plains indeed has many, many stories."

"Can you talk to me?"

"I don't know whose story the King of Persia wants to hear."

"Goujian, king of Yue," said the King of Persia.

……

After half a month, Pei Xingjian still ordered the business to be closed. Tianzhu and Persia have not been able to buy or sell, and many Westerners even crossed Persia to ask what happened.

Pei Xingjian was still hunting, and he was aiming at a wild wolf with his bow fully drawn at the moment, but he missed a shot.

Instead, the wild wolf was alarmed.

"My archery is still not good enough." Pei Xingjian shook his arm.

Xue Rengui drew his bow and aimed at the wolf that was about to flee and shot an arrow, hitting the target very accurately.

Pei Xingjian applauded, "Your archery is better."

"This can't be learned in half a month." Xue Rengui also said.

"Two generals." A guard came to report, "The Tianzhu people and the Persians are asking to see you."

"It's finally here." Pei Xingjian shot another arrow.

Chapter 773 The Purpose of the Alliance

Pei Xingjian returned to the camp, faced several Tibetans and Persians, made tea for them with tea from the Central Plains, and said, "Are you nobles from Persia and Tianzhu?"

Several Persians and Tianzhu people chattered, and then summed up a few sentences and handed them to the translator, who relayed, "My respected general, why have you closed the business road for so many days? Your actions have greatly affected our business. "
