I have already established my power and prestige, so how did Li Shimin come back to life?

He personally led a large group of people to greet them, and the scene was truly grand.

The horses galloped, the flags fluttered, the Tibetans were dressed in their best clothes, and their laughter and cheers echoed through the valley.

The team included the most brave Tibetan warriors, their armor bright and their swords and spears shining in the sun, as well as civilians dressed in their best.

Holding flowers and Hada in their hands, everyone is looking forward to witnessing this beautiful historic moment.

That should have been a joyous occasion, the prelude to a friendly marriage between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty.

But now...

Lu Dongzan led the wedding procession back. When he saw the grand welcome scene from Tubo, his heart sank immediately, as if an invisible big hand was tightly grasping his heart.

He thought to himself that something was wrong and an ominous premonition came over him.

In fact, he had already sent more than one group of troops back to Tubo to report the situation along the way in detail to Songtsen Gampo, hoping that the Zamp could reorganize the troops as soon as possible and be prepared to deal with various changes.

But when he saw the bustling scene in front of him, which was inconsistent with the actual situation, he already understood what was going on.

He knew that the Tang Dynasty must have been constantly making things difficult for them along the way, deliberately setting up numerous obstacles to hinder their journey.

The journey, which was supposed to take only a month, was dragged out to two months. Only those who have experienced it firsthand can understand the hardships and suffering involved.

What's worse, the people responsible for delivering the message failed to reach Tubo, which was undoubtedly a huge disaster.

Lu Dongzan knew in his heart that all this was the Tang Dynasty deliberately delaying time!

He subconsciously touched the scarred horsewhip mark on his face, which was caused by a Jinyiwei commander named Zhang Xianhuai.

Whenever he thought of this name, a hint of anger would flash across his eyes, and his teeth would unconsciously clench together, making a clattering sound.

He had already remembered this grudge deeply in his heart, and he even wrote Zhang Xianhuai's name stroke by stroke on the bottom of his robe.

Every stroke contained his deep hatred. He secretly swore that he would wait for the day of revenge and make this hateful guy pay a heavy price for everything he had done.

But now the situation...

Lu Dongzan looked helpless.

Zamp’s face…

No more!

He led the wedding procession forward with trepidation in his heart.

Songtsen Gampo stood in the middle of the welcoming team, waiting for the return of the wedding party with joy.

When he thought about marrying a noble Tang princess, his heart was filled with pride and glory.

This sense of glory enveloped him like a dazzling halo, making him feel a little dizzy.

Various beautiful pictures kept emerging in his mind, imagining the prosperity after the marriage between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty.

Tubo's status among neighboring countries will be greatly improved, trade between the two countries will become more frequent, and the Tubo people will live a rich and happy life.

However, when the wedding procession gradually appeared in his sight, the smile on his face gradually froze.

He saw that the wedding procession was lifeless and there was no festive atmosphere at all.

The sound of drums and music that should have been cheerful and exciting disappeared without a trace. The entire team was as quiet as a cemetery late at night. Only the monotonous and dull sound of horse hooves echoed in the air, and the sound seemed like a heavy sigh.

Everyone in the team lowered their heads, like a group of sinners who had committed an unforgivable crime, and did not dare to raise their heads to look him in the face.

Their shoulders were drooped, and there were no Tang soldiers accompanying them in the team. This was completely different from the scene he had imagined before.
