The next day, when the court was in the court, Lu Dongzan was waiting at Pei Xingjian's doorstep. Pei Xingjian's home was not difficult to find, just next to Zhuque Street.

It was not until noon that Pei Xingjian walked slowly.

"I have met Secretary-General Pei for a long time." Lu Dongzan hurriedly saluted.

"Long time no see." Pei Xingjian said with a smile, "Go in and talk."

Lu Dongzan was invited to Pei Xingjian's house, and the two sat opposite each other.

"Have you gone to see Gu Qing?" Pei Xingjian asked with a smile.

"I've been there." Lu Dongzan nodded and said, "Actually, I came here this time with Zamp's doubts. I dare to ask what arrangements the Tang Dynasty has for Tubo in the next five to ten years."

Pei Xingjian continued, "Songzan Gampo has been hiding his strength recently, right? Actually, he should already know what I want to say. If you can come here to ask me, it means that Songzan Gampo can't wait for this opportunity."

Lu Dongzan smiled, "Zanpu always said that General Pei is a person who can do things."

"He is really good at speaking good things. In fact, this is an opportunity for Tubo." Pei Xingjian said with thought, "At the time when the Shangdao Alliance, the Tang Dynasty really hoped that the Shangdao could be maintained better and more stable. There is a saying in our Central Plains that is very good. People are not satisfied with their hearts and snakes swallow elephants."

"I have heard this sentence below." Lu Dongzan nodded.

Pei Xingjian's wife settled her newborn child and poured tea for them.

Lu Dongzan took the teacup with both hands to show respect, Pei Xingjian continued, "What's the situation with Zhu today?"

"The situation in Tianzhu is not very good." Lu Dongzan took a sip of tea.

"Tell me, how bad is it?" Pei Xingjian asked again.

"Everyone wants more benefits, and the Tianzhu royal family has never relaxed in their struggle for interests. The business way makes them eat meat, so they dare not let go of their eating habits, especially the struggles within the royal family are often related to the business way."

"I don't want to hear this."

Speaking of this, Lu Dongzan smiled, "Zamp is right. What Pei Xingjian wants to hear about is the matter between India and Persia."

"Tell me." Pei Xingjian nodded.

"The battles between Persia and India are becoming more and more frequent. Perhaps as General Pei thought, it is almost about to fight. Our Tubo is the Tubo county of the Tang Dynasty. This is just like the Central Plains saying that it is good to enjoy the cool under the big tree. Without the big tree of the Tang Dynasty, India might have to fight with the Tubo for business."

"Tubo is ready." Pei Xingjian spoke.

"Is there another war?"

Pei Xingjian nodded slightly and said to Lu Dongzan, "I don't have to hide some things from you. We are all for our own interests. Don't worry, the final winner of the final business battle must be you Tubo. Now the Tang Dynasty is opening up sea trade. The opening of the era of great navigation is on the string. The ocean is very vast. Now we are opening up the East China Sea. If we go south and enter the South China Sea, we will definitely pass along the coastline of Lingnan. We will go west and build Tianzhu into our intermediate station."

"Nanhai?" Lu Dongzan was puzzled and didn't know what Pei Xingjian would say.

There is no sea map or land, and the topographic map of Lu Dongzan naturally cannot understand what Pei Xingjian was saying. Today's Tubo map is still limited to land. As early as the Central Plains and the Central Plains had already blurred the sea map. According to ancient records, Qi State had already been preparing to open up the ocean. If the Qin State, which was the last unified the seven countries, perhaps Qi State would have been a maritime hegemony. This is how the academy today guessed.

However, the Turks, Tubo and Tuyuhun had fallen apart. They were all behind the current Central Plains in this regard. This is the advantage of the Central Plains. It is just that it is not clear how much Tianzhu knows about the development of the South China Sea.

"You don't have to think too much about the others." Pei Xingjian patted Lu Dongzan's shoulder and said, "Our purpose is to take down Tianzhu. Now Persia is our vassal state. Once Persia and Tianzhu go to war again, it will be the time when our Tang Dynasty sends troops. I hope you Tubo can cooperate with us at that time."

After hearing Pei Xingjian's words, Lu Dongzan was hesitating.

"What's wrong?" Pei Xingjian asked again.

"There is one thing that I am not understanding." Lu Dongzan asked again, "What do you want to do if the Tang Dynasty conquered Tianzhu?"

Pei Xingjian smiled slightly, "Control the entire business road. The so-called alliance is just an excuse. It is to disrupt the reorganization. Didn't Songtsen Gampo also discover this business road from the Central Plains to the West? We never thought about giving it to anyone. Of course, after the opening of the sea trade, the business road has become much smaller, but it is also a good transportation route. We want to open the Protectorate in India, perhaps until the strait of Byzantine."

"You seem to be very familiar with the Western territory." Lu Dongzan was puzzled.

"These are all knowledge in the academy and have been taught to many students. If Songtsen Gampo is willing, you can ask Songtsen Gampo to take you Tubo to do more tricks and let Persia and India start war soon."

"Actually, Persia and Dashi have been under your calculations for a long time?" A feeling of powerlessness rose in Lu Dongzan's heart.

"It can be said that, but it's a bit too long to be controlled. It's just a remote control. But this is also an opportunity for you Tubo to recover your vitality. I hope you can control this opportunity well."

Lu Dongzan left Pei Xingjian's home and felt a chill in his heart. He looked up at the sky and thought about the current level of the Tang Dynasty. What can Tubo compare with the Tang Dynasty? Since the national strength is not as good as that of the Tang Dynasty and the wisdom is even more backward, everything is under their calculations. The national policy of the Tang Dynasty has long gone further than that of the Tubo. Pei Xingjian would tell himself this secret so fearlessly. Maybe this secret is no longer necessary to be exposed.

Nowadays, the trade routes between India and Persia are already in dire straits, and the war is not the present time to declare. Moreover, the Tang Dynasty has increased the transportation of spirits, tea and other things since last year, making these things more common on the trade routes. This also accelerated the conflict between Persia and India. Tubo was just by the way. Songtsen Gampo felt that this conspiracy would cause some tribes to retreat from the trade route.

Pei Xingjian sat at home, and the Persian envoy was about to arrive in Chang'an. As long as the Persian envoy turned against each other and Persia temporarily lost the protection of the Tang Dynasty, withdraw the troops from the Tubo border, first let Tianzhu put down his guard and let the people of the Tianzhu know the conflict between the Tang Dynasty and Persia, Tianzhu could have no worries, and then let the Tang general stationed in Persia be attacked by the Tianzhu people in Persia, causing an accident.
