Chapter 1085 Infighting

"Has the letter been delivered?"

"Duke Wei, don't worry, our Shou Zhuo Lang has always been reliable in handling affairs, and we guarantee that it will fall into the hands of that man."

Qin Lang, who was about to dispatch troops, secretly met with the leader of Shouzhuolang before Lei Pass. After a brief secret discussion, Shouzhuolang, who was dressed in Ningyuan Army night attire, quietly left.

A day later, Humang Qiongpo Bangse, a Tubo critic, read a letter repeatedly in his tent, his expression became more serious as he read it, while his son was on the sidelines full of excitement.

"Father, with this oath, we can already get rid of Mangbuje."

Qiongbo Bangse put down the letter in his hand, and sighed, he never imagined that Niangshang Nang would be so bold as to betray Zanpu and Tubo.

"Father, the Niang family is a rebellious minister who has milk and is a mother. I think they were originally the retainers of Semporda King Dajiawu, but they later turned their backs on Dajiawu and defected to Sempor King Chibangsong. They also sang everywhere that Dajiawu I, the king faints at the top, and the servants are worried at the bottom; the king is mad at the top, and the servants flee at the bottom.

The father of the mother, Zenggu, fled to Chibangsong, and received great rewards from Chibangsong, rewarding him with a large amount of land, slaves and livestock, but not long after, Niang Zenggu became greedy and betrayed the monarch again. He secretly colluded with Wei Pangduoreyice, Nong Sangduori Sun, Cai Bang Nasen and others to conspire to betray him, and wanted to defect to Tubo. "

"Niang Zenggu also made a song, saying that on the other side of the Tangtang River and the Yarlung Zangbo River, there is a man, the son of a man, who is actually the heir of a god. Only the real emperor can dispatch him, and only a good saddle can carry him. It is full of praise for Tubo. Pu's flattery!"

As an old enemy of the Niang family, Khunpo Bangse is of course clear about the history of the Niang family. Like him, they are not natives of Tubo.

Niang was originally a retainer of King Sempo. Before they turned their backs on King Sembo, Sempo was divided into two parts, ruled by the younger and younger kings. Niang was originally a retainer of the great king, and then defected to the younger king, and then went to defect again Simbo's in-laws in Tubo.

The Niang family colluded with Senbo's important officials everywhere, swore in secret, and then sneaked into Qingwa Castle in Tubo, dedicating their oath to Zanpu Tubo, who was Songtsan Gampo's grandfather Dabu Ningsai Zanpu.

Dabningsai saw that Niang and others were willing to respond internally, so he decided to send troops regardless of his in-law relationship with Senbo, but he died of illness before sending troops, so his son Langri Lunzan decided to continue the campaign, secretly meeting Niang Zenggu and others Minister Samba, make an oath with them.

When Langri Lunzan asked his mother and brother to stay behind and led his elite troops northward to conquer Senbo, Niang Zenggu set up a sentry on the front line to spy on the news, and secretly passed it on to Langri Lunzan, and notified Senbo of Senbo's defensive deployment. he.

Wei's family and Cai Bang's family personally led troops to act as guides and vanguards. Chibangsong was defeated and fled to the northern Turks in a panic. Tubo occupied Senbo and changed its name to Pengyu.

Senbo is the Lhasa River Basin of later generations. This is the center of the plateau, densely populated, flat terrain, suitable for farming, suitable for both agriculture and animal husbandry, and self-sufficient, laying an important foundation for Tubo to become the overlord of the plateau from the south of the mountain.

And the Niang family also relied on this credit to become an important upstart in Tubo.

After Niang Zenggu's death, his son, Niang Shangnang, became a prime minister, and he always held Qiongbo Bangse's head down.

Unexpectedly, now the opportunity has come.

"Recently, the Tang people have been aggressive. They asked Zanpu to find someone from among the nine ministers to act as a scapegoat to kill him in order to apologize. Zanpu was very troubled. He even asked the Tang people to redeem him with ten thousand gold, but the Tang people refused."

Three Shangyi discusses the five chief ministers, these nine ministers are the most important ministers in Tubo, and they have all made great contributions to the rise of Tubo, and they are unwilling to kill anyone Zanpu.

But after talking and talking, the Tang people just refused to let go, and the negotiation could no longer continue.

Qiongbo Bangse, who has always been good at observing his face, has already seen that Zanpu is also riding a tiger, so he has deliberately wanted to find a scapegoat for Tang Ren to confess.

It's just that it's hard for Zamp to make a decision.

Unexpectedly, he now has such an important thing in his hand.

He immediately rushed to Zanpu's big tent and asked for a secret meeting with Zanpu.

"Holy Zamp!"

Qiongpo Bangse waited for no one around, and fell directly at the feet of Songtsan Gampo, holding his boots and kissing, "God bless his descendants, knowing that Dafan is in crisis now, and knowing that I, Qiongpo Bangse Se is loyal to Zanpu, so he gave me the opportunity to defend Dafan and Zanpu."

He took out a roll of parchment and offered it to Songtsan Gampo.

"Niang Shangnang conspired to betray Dafan, and has secretly taken refuge in the Tang Kingdom, and now I'm lucky to be discovered, please Zanpu to investigate clearly!"

Songtsen Gampo took it suspiciously, and after opening it to look through it, his expression changed drastically.

I saw a passage written on the parchment scroll.

"From now on,

Resolutely betray Tubo Tsampo,

Resolutely support Datang Tian Khan!

Never Endless,

Never break the oath,

Never treat outsiders as your own,

Never half-hearted,

Fight bravely, die desperately,

Resolutely obey all the will of Datang Tian Khan!

Resolutely do not accept any temptation from Xiboye Zanpu!

The most important oath in Tibet.

From the Xiboye small state in the Shannan period to the overlord of the plateau, Tubo attaches great importance to the oath. Even now, from the leader of the tribal alliance to the real king, Tubo still maintains a strict set of rules. oath system.

Every year Zanpu convenes the nobles to hold an alliance meeting and make an oath together. Even when those important nobles and clans change from old to new, the new family leader must also make an oath to Zanpu before inheriting the title, territory and official position.

Tibetans believe that the oath is sacred and cannot be desecrated. As long as the oath is made, it cannot be broken.

Now that Qiongbo Bangse handed over the secret oath of his mother to the Tang Dynasty to him, how could he not be shocked. The most frightening thing was that Songtsan Gampo could recognize the writing on the sheepskin scroll, which was written in Tubo characters, and it was Niang Shangnang's handwriting.

Songtsan Gampo would not be wrong about this point, after all, the Tubo script was created only a few years ago, and Niang Shangnang was his chancellor, Songtsan Gampo had read a lot of his writing.

"Where did you get it?" Songtsan Gampo asked while holding back his anger.

"It is the blessing of the gods that gave me the opportunity to discover Niang Shangnang's conspiracy!" Qiongpo Bangse slowly explained the whole story.

"Before Niang Shangnang attacked Ningyuan Town and returned in a big defeat. Almost all the 20,000 troops were wiped out, but only their father and son escaped back. Not long ago, my son went to Songzhou for peace talks with Lun Dongzan. I met a few slaves from the Tang Dynasty by accident in Zhouzhou, but I found out that they were my Dafan soldiers. They were the soldiers who accompanied my mother Shangnang father to conquer Ningyuan Town. Later, my son spent a lot of money to buy these slaves back and asked about the war at that time. It turned out that Shang Nang's entire army was wiped out in the battle of Ningyuan Town, and he himself was defeated and captured, and did not escape. This was the fact that those warriors saw with their own eyes. Shang Nang's frog tribe was also captured. I and my son were tied up and brought back to Ningyuan Town by the people of the Tang Dynasty..."

"When I found out this fact, I was very surprised, but I couldn't believe it for a while, so I secretly launched an investigation, and I was more careful with my mother, Shang Nang, and finally let me find his feet. Shang Nang has been secretly communicating with Tang people, constantly When reporting the information about our Tubo to the Tang people, even if Zanpu discusses with the ministers, he will tell the Tang people exactly..."

"Furthermore, Shang Nang has not only informed the Tang people in secret these days, but also secretly contacted Senbo's old ministers, obviously wanting to repeat what his father and mother Zenggu did when they betrayed Senbo!"

······

Niang Shangnang is the son of Niang Zenggu. Niang Zenggu was the Minister of Senbo back then, and later voluntarily surrendered to Tubo. The minister praised by Lang Ri was highly valued and became an upstart.

And Niang Shangnang also started as a servant of Zanpu. Later, after Langri Lunzan was poisoned and killed, he was worshiped as a prime minister by virtue of his merits in supporting Songtsan Gampo and pacifying Supi, and was highly valued.

The Niang family's power and status in the current Tubo dynasty is extremely great.

What Qiongbo Bangse said made the young Songtsan Gampo suspicious, especially the ironclad evidence in his hand made the Tang Dynasty oath, which made the young Zanpu think of the history of the Niang family and the history of his father at the time. How he was poisoned and killed by the old noble guards he trusted.

"Call Shang Nang over immediately, I want to hear his explanation!"

Satisfied, Qiongbo Bangse summoned his son immediately after leaving the tent, and asked him to go to Niang's camp hundreds of miles away to summon Shang Nang and his son.

"Is it done?"

"It's half done, now Zanpu summons Shang Nang to listen to his explanation."

"The evidence is so strong that no matter how he explains it, he must be summoned to execute him."

The old fox Qiongpo Bangse is not as simple-minded as his son, "It may not be the case. After all, Niang has a lot of power in Dafan and is resourceful. If he wants to meet Zanpu, he is afraid that things will change. This is a rare opportunity. We must get rid of Shang Nang and uproot Niangshi. You go there yourself, and after you see Shang Nang, just say this..."

Qiongbangbose's son hurried to Niang's camp. After meeting, he secretly told Shang Nang that his father had learned that Zanpu had mistrusted the traitor's slander. He had already surrendered to the Tang people. Now Zanpu is convinced of it, and wants to punish him. He plans to call him back and kill him, and then give his head to the Tang people, just to give the Tang people the conditions to kill nine ministers, killing two birds with one stone.

"Zanpu was worried that he couldn't explain it to the people of Tang Dynasty. Now the Prime Minister was framed by traitors. Although it has not been verified, but after the Niang family entered Tibet, the power has become stronger and stronger. Zanpu is also very jealous..."

After Shang Nang heard it, he couldn't help being shocked.

Although Qiongpo Bangse had always been dissatisfied with Shang Nang, the old fox usually got along well with Shang Nang, and he looked like a good friend. Now he asked his son to inform him, and Shang Nang really believed it.

After all, the peace talks are not going well now, and the Tang people's conditions are there.

"My father told the prime minister not to go to see Zanpu now. He will try his best to deal with the prime minister over there. He will definitely help the prime minister to clear up his grievances. When the truth comes to light, the prime minister will go back to see Zanpu and explain it in person. Well, if you go back now, you are afraid of being killed unjustly!"

"Thank you father and son, otherwise I would really die with regret." Shang Nang immediately decided to follow Qiongpo Bangse's advice and resolutely not to see Zanpu at this time.

Qiongbo Bangse's son, Kuaima, drove back again, and when he told the situation, the old fox laughed, turned around and went to see Songtsan Gampo, and attacked Shang Nang in front of Zanpu, saying that he was afraid of crimes and dared not come.

"It seems that Shang Nang is really going to betray!"

Songtsan Gampo sighed with a gloomy face, he didn't know whether he should be happy to detect Shang Nang's conspiracy and betrayal in time, or feel sad for the Prime Minister's betrayal.

While he was still thinking about what to do with Shang Nang, the last straw that crushed Shang Nang appeared. A warrior guard in leopard clothes of Songtsan Gampo was arrested because he stole Zanpu's gold and silver utensils in exchange for him. Drinking wine, this can only be said that the warrior is greedy and stupid.

But the problem is, after some interrogation, the man actually confessed that he had accepted Shang Nang's money and bribes, secretly made eyeliner for Shang Nang, and secretly informed Zanpu's words and deeds for Shang Nang.

This touched the back of the young Songtsan Gampo. His father was poisoned and killed by the guards. Shang Nang, as the prime minister, bribed the guards around him to secretly listen to his words and deeds. Isn't that just treason?

It has further confirmed the fact that Shang Nang conspired against him.

"I can't stay here anymore. Since Shang Nang secretly communicated with the Tang Dynasty and still dares not come in fear of crime, then I will go to see him."

"Why do you need Zanpu to go in person, I am willing to lead troops to fight for Zanpu to destroy the Niang clan!"

"Okay, you lead your troops there, you must be fast, you can't let Shang Nang run away. After taking Shang Nang, wipe out all the Niang clans in the army, and don't let them defect to the Tang Dynasty again!" Songtsan Gampo bit He gritted his teeth and said fiercely.

That being the case, it can only act first.

If it was in the country, Songtsan Gampo would have to investigate carefully, but now he is on the border of the Tang Dynasty, he cannot bear the consequences of Shang Nang's rebellion, and must clear Shang Nang quickly.

After receiving the order, Khunpo Bangser immediately went back to gather his soldiers and horses. Before leaving the camp, he said to his son, "The prisoners you brought back from Songzhou have done great work, and you reward them heavily."

"How did you find out about that guard who was bribed by Shang Nang, boy, if you have one, you should be rewarded!"

Qiongpo Bangse's son said embarrassingly, "The matter about the guard really has nothing to do with me, I just found out about it."

"Could it be that the heavens really bless my Qiongbo family? Hahaha!" Qiongbo Bangse happily ordered his soldiers and horses to fight towards the Niang's camp hundreds of miles away.

He led the troops to the Niang's Camp, first claiming that he had come to visit Zanpu's grand minister Niang Shangnang, who was unable to visit Zanpu because of his illness, so that the camp would not be vigilant, and then after entering the camp, he directly ordered a surprise attack.

"Niang Shangnang betrayed Dafan and Zanpu, he was killed on the spot, and the rest of the army's Niang family were executed together."

"What about the others?"

"The old Niang family members in the camp, as well as the old ministers of Senbo, are all killed!"

The Niang's camp suddenly fell into a bloody storm. Shang Nang hadn't figured out what happened, and before he could speak, he was surrounded by the Qiongbo family's knights and shot him with random arrows. His brothers and sons were also killed. die.

A bloody massacre was cleaned up, and the massacre did not end until dusk. Tens of thousands of people were slaughtered in the camp of tens of thousands of people.

Qiongbo Bangse returned to the Zanpu camp with the heads of Shang Nang and his son, who had died in peace. Songtsan Gambo looked at the heads indifferently, and then spat at them.

"The ones who sent these heads to the Tang envoy in Songzhou and instigated us to attack Tang are all sinners."

Qiongbo Bangse said with a smile, "I don't know what kind of expression the Tang people will have when they see the head of Shang Nang they bought in front of them!"

Songtsan Gampo snorted coldly, "Forgive them for not daring to speak out!"
