Bai Gangshun asked: "Does your lord know the identity of the assassinated person?"
Jin Benyang thought for a while and said, "It seems to be an official surnamed Wang."
"Surnamed Wang?" Bai Gangshun's expression changed, and he said, "My lord, I'm in serious trouble now."
"What's wrong?" Tsumoto Yang was taken aback.
Bai Gangshun said: "My lord, one of the five surnames and seven Wangs is the Wang family. There is a saying in the Tang Dynasty: The Wang family in the world came from Taiyuan. The assassinated official with the surname Wang is probably a member of the Wang family. We are also going to visit the five surnames and seven families." Wang Wang, now that the Wang family has been assassinated, and they are still relying on us, how can the five surnames and seven Wangs help us?"
"But we didn't kill people."
Tsumoto Yang was also out of order to say such idiotic words.
Bai Gangshun said: "My lord, now I only hope that Datang can investigate the real culprit as soon as possible, otherwise we will offend the aristocratic family, and we will be unable to move forward in Datang."
"No way, the Wang family is just one of the five surnames and seven Wangs, can it represent the others?" Jin Benyang said.
Bai Gangshun nodded and said, "My lord is right, but do you think the other families will offend the Wang family because of us?"
At most, they would send some money to the aristocratic family. How could the other families offend the Wang family for their Fusang people.
"Then what do we do now?" Tsunade asked.
Tsumotoyo was selected as the envoy, and he still has the ability.
But this matter is related to his future, so his mind is in a mess, and he doesn't know how to deal with it.
On the contrary, Bai Gangshun was very calm, and said: "My lord, now it seems that the five surnames and seven hopes are hopeless, and we can only seek the help of the Guanlong Group."
"Guanlong Group?" Jin Benyang asked, "Can they help us?"
Bai Gangshun nodded, and said: "Although the Guanlong Group is generally inferior to the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs, in Chang'an, the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs are not as good as the Guanlong Group."
"Why didn't you say it at the beginning?" Tsumoto Yang said angrily.
Bai Gangshun explained: "My lord, my subordinates initially thought that Lin Xuan was Lord Datang and a member of the Guanlong Group, so I didn't recommend it to my lord. But my subordinates got the news that Lin Xuan does not belong to any party."
Jin Benyang also calmed down at this time, and said: "We must get on line with the Guanlong Group as soon as possible, and let them help us talk to the court."
"But the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has decreed that we are not allowed to leave Honglu Temple." Bai Gangshun said.
Jin Benyang said: "The emperor of the Tang Dynasty said that he is not allowed to leave without permission. Let's talk to the officials of the Honglu Temple. They will naturally report it. The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty should agree. After all, the Tang Dynasty has no evidence now. We Another envoy, it is impossible for him to keep us under house arrest like this. Which one do you think is the best to visit the Guanlong family?"
Bai Gangshun said: "My lord, I think it's best to visit the Changsun family. Although the Changsun family is not the strongest in the Guanlong family, the head of the Changsun family, Changsun Wuji, is the elder brother of the Great Tang Empress. If he can help We, not to mention sending Tang envoys to study in Datang, can help us solve the immediate troubles."
Jin Benyang said decisively: "Okay, I will go to the officials of Honglu Temple and tell the officials that we will visit Changsun Wuji together after the Emperor of Tang Dynasty agrees."
……
Li Shimin heard the report from the Minister of Honglu Temple, thought about it, and agreed.
Fuso people?
Li Shimin seemed to understand that it was Lin Xuan who did this.
The Wang family assassinated Lin Xuan, Lin Xuan must have a grudge, and it is normal to assassinate the Wang family father and son for revenge.
After the expulsion of Fusang people last time, Li Shimin noticed that Lin Xuan seemed to hate Fusang people very much.
It stands to reason that Fusang and Datang are separated by oceans, and Lin Xuan has no contact with them. He really can't figure out why Lin Xuan hates Fusang people so much.
Although he didn't know the specific reason, he believed that his feeling was right.
Although he now believes that Lin Xuan did it, there is no evidence to punish Lin Xuan.
Thinking of Lin Xuan's assassination in Chang'an and denying it face to face, Li Shimin was furious.
……
After Jin Benyang knew that Li Shimin had agreed, he and Bai Gang immediately came to Zhao Guogong's mansion with a heavy gift.
After a briefing, the two met Changsun Wuji.
"The envoy of Fusang has met Zhao Guogong, and a small gift is not a respect." Jin Benyang cupped his hands.
Changsun Wuji looked at the five boxes full of silver, and said calmly: "You two are too polite, please sit down."
After sitting down, Jin Benyang said, "I'm taking the liberty to come here this time. I want to ask Mr. Zhao Guogong for help with two matters. After the matter is completed, there will be gifts."
"Oh? Let's hear it." Changsun Wuji said.
Jin Benyang said: "I, Fusang, admire the Tang culture very much, but the previous envoys to the Tang Dynasty accidentally offended the dignitaries of the Tang Dynasty, which led to the expulsion of all my Fusang envoys to the Tang Dynasty. Fusang sent Tang envoys to study in Datang."
Changsun Wuji was noncommittal and said, "What about the other thing?"
"Zhao Guogong, about the assassination of members of the Wang family, it was really not our Fusang people who did it. We Fusang people have no grievances with the Wang family. How could we assassinate the Wang family? Please help Zhao Guogong to explain to the Wang family. Lied to, let the real culprit go unpunished."
"You guys take the presents back, I can't help you with your busyness." Changsun Wuji said after listening.
It's no problem to say a few nice words for Fusang.
But explaining to the Wang family for them is impossible.
It would be great if the real culprit could be found. If not, it would be the Fusang people who did it.
Whether the Wang family father and son were killed by Fusang people is not important at all.
For the Wang family, it would be a big embarrassment if the clansmen were assassinated and even the murderer could not be found.
When the murderer cannot be found, someone needs to take the blame and save face.
"If Zhao Guogong is willing to help, Fusang will offer 2 taels of silver afterwards." Tsumoto Yang gritted his teeth and said.
This time, he had already given 1 taels. He originally planned to give 1 taels later, but now Changsun Wuji refused, so he had no choice but to increase his bargaining chips.
For Fusang, there is no shortage of silver at all.
What they lack is Datang's advanced skills.
Although Changsun Wuji didn't know how many were in the box, he had an estimate.
3 taels of silver, Changsun Wuji was a little moved, he didn't expect a little Fusang to be so rich.
Seeing that the eldest Sun Wuji was silent, Jin Benyang said: "Thirty thousand, as long as Zhao Guogong is willing to help, I will offer 3 taels of silver afterwards."
4 taels of silver can be exchanged for [-] guan copper coins. Changsun Wuji looked at Jin Benyang's face and knew that this was almost his limit.
"It's not that I don't help. Fusang has always respected the Tang Dynasty and paid tribute every year. It's all right to help you speak well to His Majesty. But the relationship between the old man and the Wang family is not good, and there is really no way to help you spread the word to the Wang family." Changsun Wu Ji said.
Jin Benyang hesitated for a moment, and said: "As long as Zhao Guogong can get the Emperor of Datang to agree to Fusang sending Tang envoys to study in Datang, what I just said will still be valid."
As long as he can complete the task assigned by the emperor, he will not stay in Datang for too long.
When the time comes to return to Fusang, he will be a hero, what can the Wang family do to him.
Changsun Wuji nodded, and said: "You need to mention this matter to His Majesty first, then the old man can speak for you."
Jin Benyang said: "When the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty officially summons us, I will mention it immediately. At that time, I will trouble Zhao Guoguang to help."
