The banquet was soon put down, and the old king called several important officials in the court to accompany him, and asked the singer to sing.

These ten singers' singing voices and dancing are all first-class. The most rare thing is the charming posture of the dance, which is simply distracting. The old king and several ministers were so drunk that they praised them repeatedly.

At the end of the banquet, the old king asked his servant to carry several large boxes and opened them. Inside were some local specialties of Duomia. The old king said, "The Dharma King has given me a lot, and I can't repay you. These are the rich products of our Duomia country. I believe you don't have Xiangya, so I'll give it to the Dharma King."

Zuo Shaoyang glanced at the rough-made handicrafts, the best fabrics, and all kinds of greed. Dalongxin said that the old king of Duomian Kingdom was very stingy, and now he realized that it was true. He was worth two thousand taels of silver and ten beautiful girls, and he was exchanged for such a bunch of simple things? Fortunately, Zuo Shaoyang's move was because the drunkard was not in wine. I met Prince Duomian tonight and then knew whether the rewards he had received for this gamble were rewarded and how much he could get.

After the banquet, the old king personally accompanied Zuo Shaoyang and Da Longxin to the prince's bedroom in the autumn rain and thunder.

Prince Nanglisi was whipped fifty times, and his back was covered with bloodstains. He was lying on the bed. The imperial doctor had already applied medicine to him. Seeing his father accompanying the previous Dharma King in, he knew that it was the Dharma King who had pleaded with him and saved his life. He wanted to struggle to get up and treat him, but when he saw his father with a cold face, he lay down and stopped moving, and even turned his head aside.

The old king snorted heavily and said, "This is the Dharma King of Gangren Buche, the country of Xiangdu. You don't know the general and do not know the importance of state affairs. You almost ruined the major national affairs. For your father, the Dharma King will persuade you to do rituals for you, so that you can return to the wrong path. Do you understand?"

The prince seemed to be asleep, "no response.

When Zuo Shao saw the old king's anger rising, he waved his hand quickly: "King calms down" and let me agree to him.

After listening to Dalonggu's translation, the old king then brushed his robe and turned around and left.

Zuo Shaoyang ordered all the servants in the house to retreat outside the house and asked Dalongxin to close the door. Then Dalongxin translated and said, "Your Highness, you," the prince waved his hand, turned his head and passed the market, and said to Dalongxin in Tibetan: "Please help me up."

Dalongxin hurriedly helped him sit up. The prince struggled and bowed, "Thank you for helping the Dharma King."

Dalong Gu translated for Zuo Shaoyang, and Zuo Shaoyang smiled and said, "Your Highness, you are polite."

The prince said coldly: "I thank you for saving my life. If the Dharma King wants to act as a lobbyist for my father," he persuaded me to change my mind, but it would be better for the rabbit to speak out so as not to hurt the harmony!"

Zuo Shaoyang smiled: "The prince misunderstood. I am not a lobbyist, but I am here to help His Highness. To be honest, if His Highness had not opposed the alliance with Tubo, I would not have saved you. But then again, if you do not oppose the alliance with Tubo, you would not have been beheaded by your father."

When he heard Zuo Shaoyang's words, the prince was surprised and happy: "It turns out that the Dharma King has a bad impression of Tubo?"

"It's not that I have a bad impression of Tubo, but Tubo is a respectable opponent. But he is too ambitious. I believe he will annex all the foreign countries and tribes in the Western Regions one by one, including our Xiangya. He wants to destroy me Xiangya. "Can I still have a good impression of him?"

"That's right!" The prince slapped his thigh and touched the wound on his back. He grinned, but ignored it, and said anxiously: "Then Dalai Lama, have you persuaded my father? Tell him not to form an alliance with Tubo!" Zuo Shaoyang smiled faintly: "You Duomi does not form an alliance with Tubo." What should I do if Tubo beat you? Are you confident that you can deal with it?"

"We must form an alliance with tribes like Bogan, Bowo, Bailan, and even Misang" to unite against Tubo to protect ourselves."

Zuo Shaoyang nodded frequently: "The prince said it very well" and is also very visionary. Tubo is now using the strategy of getting along with each other from a distance. During the Warring States Period, Qin State used this move to unify China and establish the first imperial power. Tubo's move is not new, but it is very confusing. Many foreign countries should have been confused by him. The prince can accurately see the true intention of Tubo, and his eyes are really admirable."

The prince said depressedly: "What do you admire? I can't convince my father. He would rather kill me than offend the Tubo envoys. This alliance is determined. Alas! I will not be far away when the country is destroyed."

Zuo Shaoyang said: "It's not too late to repair the sheep when they lose!"

The prince looked at him in confusion: "What the Dharma King means..."..."

Zuo Shaoyang whispered: "I will help you force the king to abdicate, and you will inherit the throne, how about?"

After hearing Dalongxin's translation, a thunder thunder trembled in the air. The prince's heart was like this thunder, waking up all the sorrows. He couldn't help but feel surprised. People in that era believed that the Dharma King had magic power, and the Dharma King said that he could do it would definitely do what he could. What's more, the Dharma King Xiang Yalai, the birthplace of Bon religion, was even more out of the way. If he was willing to use magic power to help himself ascend the throne, he could save Duomian Kingdom.

Thinking of this, the prince hurriedly bowed and said, "Thank you, the Dharma King! As long as the Dharma King helps me ascend the throne, I will definitely repay the Dharma King!"

"It's no need to give me a reward. As long as your highness ascends the throne, he can fulfill his promise, form an alliance with Misang, and form an alliance with Bowo, Bodan and other countries in the eastern region, and live and die together, even if the prince thanks me."

The prince said, "How can this be done? To form an alliance with them is what I want to do, how can I use it to repay the Dharma King?", "Okay, the matter has not been completed yet, so I won't talk about it for now. Let's talk about it after it is done."

"Okay! As long as the Dharma King helps me inherit the throne, I can do whatever the Dharma King wants...!"

"Haha, I want the prince to tell you that you have changed your mind and agree with Duomia's alliance with Tubo. He also requests to participate in tomorrow's alliance ceremony. Just leave the others to me."

The prince bowed and said, "Okay! Follow the arrangements of the Dharma King!"

The prince immediately called in and informed the king, saying that he had something to say. The old king came soon. The prince had already asked his servant to support him and kowtowed on the bed, and said wailingly: "Father, after being enlightened by the Dharma King, the child knew that he was wrong. Please forgive me."

The old king was surprised and happy, and laughed to the sky: "Hahaha, good boy, just know the mistake. To form an alliance with Tubo will do more benefits and harm us! It is said that as long as you understand this principle, get up! Hurry up and climb down. "Where is the imperial doctor? Ask the imperial doctor to heal the prince well!"

The prince kowtowed and said, "Children thanked the father for his grace!"

"Well, you can recover from your injuries." "Yes, father, Haier's injury is not serious. As a prince, the child wants to participate in the tomorrow's alliance ceremony. Please forgive me."

"This..." The old king was a little hesitant. Although his son had already admitted his mistake and Jiedu was also very sincere. He was the crown prince and the future heir to the throne, so he should have participated in such a ceremony. However, he was also worried that he would really repent and not cause any trouble at that time.

The prince had obviously guessed the old king's concern and hurriedly said, "The child sat down from afar and watched the ceremony, without saying a word or doing anything. Please believe the father."

The old king turned his head hesitantly to look at Zuo Shaoyang: "What do you think the Dharma King?" Zuo Shaoyang smiled and said, "The prince already knew his mistake. It is naturally the best to be able to attend the ceremony, so that Tubo can rest assured."

When the old king heard this, he nodded frequently: "Well, what the Dharma King said is very good. Okay, Wanger, you will attend the alliance ceremony tomorrow. But you can only sit on the viewing platform and cannot enter the sacrificial platform!"

I thought that as long as he did not enter the sacrificial platform and did not contact the Tubo envoys, he would not have to worry about any trouble.

The prince hurriedly bowed and agreed.

The old king smiled and said to Zuo Shaoyang: "The magic power of the Dharma King is really unfathomable." Only then did I know how to do it, my king changed my mind and realized his mistakes. "I have never seen such a profound magic power."

"Where is Your Majesty's reward?" Zuo Shaoyang said a few humbly.

Since the prince has changed his mind, there is no need for the Dharma King Zuo Shaoyang to live in the prince's palace. The old king arranged for Zuo Shaoyang and Dalongxin to live in his palace imperial garden, but Zuo Shaoyang insisted on returning to the inn to live, saying that there were still some relatives and friends to take care of. The old king did not force him to send him out of the palace in person.

On the way, Zuo Shaoyang asked, "I wonder where your country and the Tubo envoys meet?"

The old king said: "It's right behind the palace."

Zuo Shaoyang looked up at the night sky that floated and occasionally thundered," said: "This sky is violent, and tomorrow may not be sunny. Why don't the king postpone the alliance again?"

The old king shook his head and said, "This day was calculated by our national teacher, which means that the day was just right. After this time, we would have to wait for more than a month. The Tubo envoy was anxious to return to Tubo, so he couldn't wait. It doesn't matter. Isn't it just going down? The Zhonghui Alliance shows more sincerity!"

"That's true." Zuo Shaoyang nodded: "I will arrive at the altar on time tomorrow morning."

"Okay. Wait for the great deportation of the Dharma King." Zuo Shaoyang took Da Longxin away from the palace and returned to the inn. He immediately went back to the room and closed the door and said he wanted to rest.

He naturally would not rest. After closing the door, Zuo Shaoyang changed into a night-long dress and quietly went up to the roof. He ran towards the altar next to the palace on a rainy night.

Although the altar was guarded by soldiers, because the altar was surrounded by walls, and it was raining heavily, and it was dark night. Every ghost was hidden in the class room to shelter from the rain. Zuo Shaoyang calmly checked the entire altar and had a bold idea in his mind.

He returned to the inn, immediately called a few blacksmiths to come over, and gave him such instructions.

The blacksmiths all brought their own guys and immediately started to make a jingle. Soon, they prepared what Zuo Shaoyang needed. Zuo Shaoyang returned to the altar with this thing late. In the darkness, the empty altar was empty. Zuo Shaoyang quickly arranged the things and left quietly.

The next day, the rain stopped from time to time, but the sky was still as dark as a fire. It seemed that a violent incident was coming.

The altar was full of people, and the viewing platform was equipped with a pergola. The ones sitting in the pergola were royal relatives and civil and military officials. In order to promote the alliance between Duomian and Tubo, the old king even allowed some people to enter the altar and stand far under the wall to watch. Of course, these people who came in were all reviewed and searched to ensure safety. Zuo Shaoyang was the noble Dharma King, and his position was arranged in the front row of the awning. Sitting with a row of princes and the most important ministers of the court. Next to him was the eldest prince's Nanglisi.

The nun Lisi was a little nervous, but he didn't look at Zuo Shaoyang, which made Zuo Shaoyang secretly praise the prince and still had some ability.

The altar is round, with a tall flagpole standing in the middle, covered with prayer flags of various colors.

There is an altar under the flagpole, with several large pots and offerings such as melons and fruits. At the bottom of the flagpole, a cow and a sheep are tied. There is also a woman with her whole body tied up and sitting under the flagpole, curled up and staring at the ground with her eyes dull.

The old king and the Tubo envoys sat on both sides of the altar, as if a pair of boxers were waiting to fight.

A shriveled old man looked up at the sky, walked to the middle of the altar, and said a lot in Tibetan. Da Longxin next to him helped translate, saying that he announced the beginning of the sacrifice and was chanting a mantra.

It was strange that it was so small that it was so small that it was very whispered in the cold awning, and a look of amazement appeared on his face.

The old king also smiled. He and the Tubo envoys stood up, walked to Taichung, bowed to each other, and walked to the altar according to the command of the national teacher. At this time, several burly men from the stage, bare-armed, led the cow over first, tied all four hooves with ropes, and lay on the ground, tilting their heads, mooing.

The Tubo envoy and the old king read the oath in unison, and Dalongbi translated it to Zuo Shaoyang, that is, the two countries formed a brotherly alliance. If they violate the covenant, they would swear to be together with cattle and sheep!

After saying that, the two of them raised their swords and cut off the cow's head. They held it together and placed it on the altar. The cow with no head was dripping blood from their necks, which soon dyed the entire altar red and looked even more ferocious. Zuo Shaoyang kept looking at the sky. The sky was covered with dark clouds and pressed very low, but it was still a small well. There was a faint sound of thunder from the distance, but it did not come to the top of his head. Zuo Shaoyang became a little irritated. Could it be that he would assassinate Li Yuan again? Zuo Shaoyang touched the golden needle nozzle in his sleeve and was thinking in his head.

At this time, the Tubo envoys and the old king had already cut off the head of the sheep. The ministers in the awning and the crowds around began to yell, and their faces were filled with excitement.
Chapter completed!
