Seeing that the other party didn't understand, Du Shaoqing deliberately showed a greedy face and signaled slightly: "I was a businessman before I became an official, so Your Majesty asked me to negotiate mainly on the wedding betrothal gift and dowry."

Oh... Lu Dong praised it and remembered it. The information said that Du Shaoqing was a businessman and had a profit-oriented nature. It was said that he had blackmailed Goguryeo in Hebei Province. Why? This time he used our Tubo as the second place in Goguryeo? Are you going to blackmail us?

"Oh, this should be. We have already presented the betrothal gift list. I wonder what the Tang Dynasty objected? Do you think we have fewer betrothal gifts?" Lu Dongzan asked.

Du Shaoqing quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, this is not, Tubo is in a bitter and cold place in the southwest, fifty cars of wealth and goods are transported thousands of miles away, not to mention much, this hard work is enough to show sincerity. What I want to say is not the amount of betrothal gifts for you, but our dowry issue. I wonder what Da Xiang thinks?"

Lu Dongzan shook his head with a reasonable look and said, "If marriage is made, dowry is your country's business. As the princess's family, your country is as long as it feels right. Don't let the surrounding small countries watch jokes, we Tubo will not get involved."

This is really smooth. Du Shaoqing cursed secretly, saying that he would not interfere, and on the other hand, he said that he would not let the surrounding small countries laugh. Isn’t this obvious saying that there is no need to be less?

But what did Du Shaoqing do? He came to sabotage the state on purpose, so he also smiled and said, "That won't be. All the surrounding small countries regard me as the Tang Dynasty as their respect. Who dares to watch the jokes of our Tang Dynasty? The fate of Goguryeo is a clear proof, so don't worry."

"Haha, I heard that Shaoqing has also become famous in the Hebei battlefield. It is said that heroes are young, and they are disrespectful and disrespectful!" Lu Dongzan praised and cursed in his heart. We have not threatened the Tang Dynasty, but you have already warned you?

Du Shaoqing smiled and said, "In our hometown, there is a habit that when the man gets married, he not only has to take on betrothal gifts, but also buys the dowry together. After I reported this plan to Your Majesty, Your Majesty exclaimed that it was reasonable, so I asked me to communicate with you in advance."

What, what? Lu Dongzan was surprised and said, "Shaoqing was right? If I understand it correctly, your country wants us to buy the dowry for you? Why? The Tang Dynasty is so big that it cannot afford the dowry for her daughter?"

"That's not the case. It's mainly because it's not easy for us to raise a daughter for more than ten years. You're going to leave our daughter in verbal words. This seems unreasonable." Du Shaoqing asked.

"We brought betrothal gifts, fifty cars of wealth, and 30% of the Tubo income." Lu Dongzan explained.

"No, no, the account is not settled like this. If you give us a betrothal gift, if we take the dowry and send it back, wouldn't you still have to leave the daughter we worked hard to raise in vain? If our dowry is more generous, maybe we will pay you money and daughters to you. If such a thing is spread, I'm afraid the small countries around us will laugh to death.

Everyone followed this example and came to propose marriage to the princess. How many daughters and wealth in our Emperor Emperor did not have enough to divide the surrounding small countries? Do you think this is the reason?"

Du Shaoqing directly fainted Lu Dongzan with one great truth. This method of greedy mother-in-law in later generations was used on Tubo barbarians. I wonder how he would dismantle it?

Lu Dongzan didn't expect that this guy would even make such a fallacy. It sounded like there was nothing wrong with it. After a while, Tubo did make money and make women. But wasn't everyone like this before? He made money from the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty treated him with courtesy. Why didn't the guy who came here today look like an official from the Tang Dynasty, but he was here to discuss business?

"This is the truth, but marriage is not a trade in wealth and goods. We two countries join hands to form an alliance, and the key is to do the grand wedding." Lu Dongzan hesitated.

"Of course, but we always have to see your sincerity. You can afford the betrothal gifts and dowry to prove that you are qualified to serve the princess of the Tang Dynasty. Otherwise, the princess of the Tang Dynasty was born in the Fugui Palace and went to Tubo to suffer. That would definitely not work. I am afraid that your Majesty and the Queen will not be willing to let their daughter suffer, and they will not agree to your proposal.

Da Xiang, you can't afford to pay for the dowry, or you want to make money to covet our gifts, right?" Du Shaoqing looked at Lu Dongzan jokingly.

After being revealed, Lu Dongzan immediately changed his face, "What did Shaoqing say? Everyone came for state affairs, why did Shaoqing be so stinking? This matter has changed so much that we need to discuss and reply to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty."

Then the order to expel guests was issued. Lu Dongzan saw that Du Shaoqing was disrupting the situation, so he wanted to temporarily push this person away and prepare to start from others. This idea would definitely not be thought of by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty himself, or the civil and military officials of the court. Those who came from gentry and nobles valued etiquette and despise wealth and goods, and could not let a small Shaoqing of the Honglu Temple take it down.

Du Shaoqing left, and half a day later, Lu Dongzan spread the matter, mainly to the officials he had bribed. When these people heard that the Tang Dynasty could not even afford the dowry of his daughter, they expressed their dissatisfaction and submitted a report to Du Shaoqing.

At this time, Du Shaoqing was reporting to the emperor. Tang Jian knew that he didn't dare to say anything. Du Shaoqing said it to the emperor again. In addition, the subsequent public opinion pressure did not just prove that Tubo came for the dowry, not to marry the princess. In this way, the Tang Dynasty could not have been fooled even more clearly that it was a conspiracy.

Li Er pondered for a moment and explained to Du Shaoqing: "Forget it, if you go and refuse Tubo, just say that the Tang Dynasty refused to marry a daughter, so don't mention this matter again.

Five years ago, they dared to take advantage of the opportunity to enter the Tang Dynasty. At that time, I was not afraid of them. Now the Tang Dynasty is rich and the people are strong, and I am even less afraid of them."

So half a day later, Du Shaoqing met Lu Dongzan again. The prime minister of Tubo did not expect that the young man in front of him was so trusted by the emperor. He could not only ignore the participation of many ministers, but also cross the Zhengqing of the Honglu Temple to convey the holy intention. It seemed that this person was not simple.

"Shaoqing, I'm afraid His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has misunderstood. We have just discussed the result and are ready to agree to the request of the Tang Dynasty. We agree that the dowry will be given by our side. As long as the Tang Dynasty can marry a princess to us," Lu Dongzan changed his words.

Now it’s Du Shaoqing’s turn to not understand, and he agreed to such conditions? Could it be that I was wrong? Didn’t these people come to make money?

But then Lu Dongzan said again: "In order to show our determination to marry the princess, we are planning to build a luxurious palace on the mountain to serve the noble princess of the Tang Dynasty.

But although we, Tubo, have the people's strength, but the craftsmen are not good, so we still need to send some skilled craftsmen to help guide the construction."
