Looking back from Lujiang, Jianchang Mansion, Xiao Cheng came back to his senses slightly, looked at Feng Bao who was reminding him, coughed lightly and said:

"Well, what did you just say... Zhang Zhao, the Minister of Rites, is out asking for an audience, right?"

"Yes, does your Majesty want to summon you?" Feng Bao quickly replied.

Xiao Cheng nodded and said:

"Proclaim it!"

"yes!"

Feng Bao quickly signaled to the young eunuch to announce the summons, and he retreated slightly behind Xiao Cheng, his eyes just happened to glance at the Raging Dragon Sword placed aside, which had been unsheathed for several inches.

A trace of suspicion flashed in his eyes, and then he tiptoed over and put the Raging Dragon Sword back into its scabbard.

After a while, Zhang Hong, the Minister of Rites, walked quickly into the palace under the leadership of the young eunuch.

"Your Majesty, Zhang Hong, pays homage to your Majesty!" Zhang Hong bowed and saluted.

Xiao Cheng raised his hand slightly, gave a gesture of support, and asked:

"Zhang Qing asks to see you, but what can you report?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Hong immediately reported:

"Wang Xuance, a member of the Department of Rites, was sent as an envoy to Tibet. Yesterday he sent someone to report back. The Tibetan monarchs and ministers are interested in making peace, so they sent an envoy to Dayun to pay tribute to His Majesty!"

When Xiao Cheng heard this, he immediately nodded and said:

"That's it!"

From Dongchang's secret report, Xiao Cheng already knew what Wang Xuance was doing in Tubo.

After all, it was Wang Xuance who dared to kill people in the Tubo palace. In the end, he was able to force Tubo Zanpu to abandon Nie Qi, bow his head, and send envoys to pay tribute.

This makes Xiao Cheng wonder whether he should say that Wang Xuance is awesome, or that the purple training card has powerful skills...

Xiao Cheng's lips curved, a smile appeared on his face, he nodded and said:

"This is a good thing! The border between Tubo and Dayun is continuous, and the relationship between the two countries is more related to the smoothness of the tea-horse trade route. It is a good thing that the two countries have repaired!"

The Tea-Horse Trade Road is related to the commercial taxes and trade of the Yun State. Moreover, the Tea-Horse Trade Road is also related to the combat power of the Yun State’s cavalry.

Although the local war horses of the Yun Kingdom have strong endurance, they are short in stature and are not suitable for use as war horses. The most important person in the Shen's Trading Company of the imperial merchant Shen Wansan is to secretly control the price of war horses, purchase horses, and improve domestic war horse breeds.

Now it has only been more than a year, and we have just achieved some results. We are about to show off our skills in the Central Plains. It would be a pity if the trade routes were blocked due to the enmity with the Tubo Kingdom!

Hearing this, Zhang Hong nodded and said:

"Of course this is a good thing..."

Having said this, Zhang Hong paused slightly and continued:

"But Your Majesty, the Lord of Tubo is quite ambitious in abandoning Nie Qi. Since he came to the throne, he has strengthened the royal power internally and suppressed the nobles. He has recruited craftsmen externally and made good friends with other countries. Even if he makes good friends with them, he must not be careless."

Xiao Cheng can naturally think of this, otherwise he would not have summoned the Buddhist monks before, hoping to use Buddhism to influence Tubo.

But after Zhang Hong finished speaking, Xiao Cheng's heart moved again and he said:

"I remember that Gongren was working in your Ministry of Etiquette? Let him be transferred to the frontier army to get some training. I don't think he will be useful in the future!"

Regarding Gongren, Xunka [General Returning to the Tang Dynasty] was summoned, and he was born into a Tubo noble. The identity assigned to him by Golden Finger was because he abandoned Nie Qi and suppressed the Tubo tribe, so he fled into the Yun Kingdom.

"yes!"
