Chapter 909 Western War Situation

Pei Xingjian's mouth twitched when he heard this, "Why did the teacher detain Cheng Yaojin's axe?"

"I don't know." Di Renjie shook his head vigorously, "But I haven't walked out of Dali Temple for three days."

He patted Di Renjie's shoulder sympathetically, and Pei Xingjian also said, "Fortunately, Cheng Yaojin doesn't know that I am a teacher's disciple. It seems that I am not convenient for me to stay for a long time, so take care of me."

"Take care too." Di Renjie also looked at Pei Xingjian sympathetically.

Pei Xingjian walked out of Dali Temple with a strange feeling, thinking about why Di Renjie asked him to take care of himself. Could it be that Cheng Yaojin already knew that he was Gu Qing's disciple? No, Xue Rengui was also Gu Qing's disciple. When Pei Xingjian thought of this, he suddenly realized that Xue Rengui was training outside with his troops. Cheng Yaojin couldn't catch him. As he thought about it, he saw Cheng Yaojin swaying towards Dali Temple.

It was really here. Pei Xingjian was about to walk back when he saw more than a dozen strong men appearing behind him at some point. He suddenly felt sad and was hit.

"Wow hahaha!" Cheng Yaojin looked at Pei Xingjian with a smile, "I am the Shangshu Ling at a young age, and Gu Qing's disciples are indeed amazing."

Pei Xingjian saw the big men surrounding him smiling bitterly, "Duke Lu, we seem to have no grievances or grudges."

The answer to Pei Xingjian was Cheng Yaojin's strange laughter.

Di Renjie immediately received the news at Dali Temple. Pei Xingjian was taken down by Cheng Yaojin after walking out of Dali Temple less than a cup of tea. He looked outside the government office of Dali Temple and whispered, "Junior brother, you can block it for a while. Senior brother will come to save you in a few days."

After saying that, Di Renjie wrote a letter and handed it to the clerk beside him and said, "Tell the letter to the teacher."

"Yes." The little official went to do business immediately.

Gu Qing was sitting at home listening to Yang Sheng reporting on the road construction situation. Fan Jian took a letter and said, "The letter from the head of the family, Xiao Di'er."

"What are you doing to me when I send a letter to Chang'an?" Gu Qing opened the letter and took a look. It turned out that Cheng Yaojin had already been detained by Cheng Yaojin in order to get the axe back.

After reading the letter, Gu Qing thought for a while and said, "Where is Cheng Chumoren?"

"I'm still asleep, I haven't woken up yet." Fan Jian nodded and replied.

"Okay." Gu Qing said to Fan Jian, "You can find a few smart people and tell Cheng Yaojin that his son is at my house, and I'm afraid he can't go back these days."

"Yes." Fan Jian went to do it immediately.

"What's wrong with you and Cheng Yaojin?" Yang Sheng asked curiously.

"Nothing." Gu Qing said while drinking tea, "By the way, do you like to use an axe?"

"I don't like it." Yang Sheng shook his head and said, "I like to use a horizontal knife, you know."

"Does that monk like to use an axe?" Gu Qing continued.

Yang Sheng sneered, "It's okay for the monk to knock on the stick, but even if he doesn't even use the axe, he can't even use the knife."

Gu Qing fell into sorrow again, thinking that Fan Jian sent another letter.

"Has Cheng Yaojin also sent a letter?" Gu Qing took the letter and said.

"No." Fan Jian shook his head and said, "The person who sent the letter was a Tubo man who said it was a letter given to the head of the family. The same letter had been sent to the palace."

Realizing that something was wrong, Gu Qing opened the letter and read it. Songtsen Gampo’s word Zhongyuan was written very well, and it seemed that he had written Guanzhong characters a lot.

When Yang Sheng saw Gu Qing looking at the content of the letter, he asked, "What's wrong?"

Gu Qing handed the letter to Yang Sheng and said, "The Roman monarch, the Roman emperor in the West, personally led his troops to the east. And now they have reached the border of Dashi. Now they are negotiating. Rome hopes that Dashi can surrender to Rome."

Yang Sheng looked at it for a long time and said worriedly, "Are you afraid that big food can't stop Rome?"

"It's not that I can't stop it." Gu Qing said worriedly, "I'm afraid that the Roman Emperor will know the wealth of the East and do not want to let the East go."

"If our East is really so rich to the West, Rome will definitely not let it go." Yang Sheng also said, "Gu Qing, is this Rome very powerful? Is it really that powerful? Do we need to be careful?"

"Required." Gu Qing nodded seriously, "Rome is a country established in killing. They do not have as many traditional Chinese etiquette as we do. They have always been a country where the strong are respected and advocate greater power than the civil and political affairs."

"The Dashi is also a powerful country. I heard that the Dashi's land area is very large and may not be defeated so quickly." Yang Sheng said.

"You don't know that Rome is the richest and most powerful country in the West, and Rome also has huge Western cities." Gu Qing whispered, "Now Rome has annexed Constantine and ate Byzantium. Now it is the time for the Roman Empire to be the most powerful. If the Tang Dynasty was the most powerful country in the East, then Rome is the most powerful country in the West."

Yang Sheng thoughtfully said, "Dashi can stop Rome for a while."

Gu Qing smiled and said to Yang Sheng, "That's not necessarily the old king of Dashi now hates our Tang Dynasty to the core. You, Yang Sheng, could have cut off the head of Prince Dashi with your own hands. Do you think Dashi will let you go?"

"That's true." Yang Sheng nodded seriously, "Then according to your opinion, the Tang Dynasty is indeed dangerous."

"That's not." Gu Qing said calmly, "Roman rushes to the east around the Mediterranean coastline, and has reached Dashi. It is still a thousand miles away from the Tang Dynasty. With such a long supply line, I don't believe how long Rome can last. And Rome is just a few rash men carrying spears and shields. I don't know how much Rome has."

After hearing this, Yang Sheng understood and said, "You are worried that Dashi will join forces with Rome and bite the Tang Dynasty. Dashi is also a major power in the West. If this is the case, Persia and India will be in danger."

"I think Songtsen Gampo shouldn't be able to sleep well now." Gu Qing whispered, "Although he did not say that Dashi would join forces with Rome, he is now in negotiations. It seems that the Roman expedition is exhausted and needs to be repaired. If he doesn't want to attack, Dashi dares not compete with Rome now. It is very likely that the meeting and the unlucky ones may be Persia and India."

"Yes." Yang Sheng nodded, "and it's been so long since I've been delivering the letter, and I don't know how it's going."
