Chapter 618: The King of Kings(2/2)
Did the First Emperor be very interested in immortality when he was young? But the older he was, the stronger the immortality was.
Zhang Qian has always been by Li Shimin, who knows Li Shimin's thoughts best. Of course... Li Shimin's thoughts cannot be told to outsiders. After all, emperors who want to pursue fairy medicine often have bad reputations and are criticized.
But for Zhang Qian, he has to pay attention to this matter and hurry up!
In fact, Zhang Qian attaches great importance to anything that is good for Li Shimin, which shows that he is somewhat sincere to this emperor master.
Li Shimin had already put on the Tiantian crown at this time and then drove to Tai Chi Hall.
At this time, in the Tai Chi Hall, all the officials were already wearing court uniforms and standing in shifts.
Li Shimin was promoted to the palace and all the ministers performed their respects.
Then... Chen Zhengtai took the lead and said, "Your Majesty, my son has reported that Dashi, Persia, Dayuan and other 16 countries sent Tang envoys to join Baekje, Silla, and Japan sent Tang envoys to meet with them."
Li Shimin smiled and said, "Xuan."
So the eunuchs outside began to sing.
Immediately afterwards, the nineteen countries sent Tang envoys into the hall one after another.
All the ministers in the class were solemn.
The Minister of Rites Dou Lukuan could not help but exchanged glances with some other ministers at this time, Dou Lukuan looked smiling.
He felt that Chen Zhengtai was too impetuous in his work.
Look... the etiquette of entering the hall is too simple. Look at the envoys sent by Tang from various countries, the quality is different. When they come in together, they do not show the atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty at all.
From the perspective of the Minister of Rites, Chen Zhengtai's trick is simply a mess.
Of course... he didn't say anything, trying hard to calm his face, so that he might not reveal anything.
He looked up at Li Shimin.
I thought to myself that His Majesty must be desperate when he sees Chen Zhengtai's behavior.
There are quite a few of the civil and military ministers in this hall, all of whom have gone through the Sui and Tang dynasties. No one knows the atmosphere of the Sui Dynasty's inauguration of the Tang envoys from various countries.
That kind of style, the etiquette and norms, and the yearning for the envoys of the Tang Dynasty to show the heavenly kingdom are still worth remembering.
But now... it's like a straw troupe, letting everyone come in casually and doing things perfunctorily.
In fact, many ministers had begun to observe silently for Li Shimin in their hearts.
Li Shimin's expression looked fine. At this time, he was carefully identifying these envoys from various countries wearing various strange costumes.
After these countries sent Tang envoys to pay tribute, Li Shimin smiled and said, "Thank you all for your hard work, all of you are here."
Here, Baekje's envoys were most familiar with the Tang Dynasty. However, few other countries sent Tang Dynasty envoys to understand Chinese. Therefore, this time, Baekje's envoys to send Tang Dynasty envoys to report.
Baekji sent a Tang envoy and said immediately: "The emperor is virtuous, and all the ministers under the vassal states always have their hearts."
After the ceremony, the Persian country sent the Tang envoy forward and spoke in a whisper.
Some translator translated the words of the Persian envoy to Tang: "After the king's order, I came to pay my respects to the emperor and submitted them to the letter of the country."
Li Shimin nodded and agreed.
So the envoys from various countries sent Tang to bow their long-prepared letters of the country and put them all on the plates.
Then he sent it to Li Shimin's imperial case.
Li Shimin could not read this time, but this letter of state must have agreed with the ministers he contacted before, so... the content must be nothing new, it is nothing but beautiful words such as having sex with each other.
However, this ceremony was indeed a bit too simple. After all, Li Shimin has always been a person with good face, so he couldn't help but glance at Chen Zhengtai with resentment, and couldn't help thinking: This guy... he's not doing enough in front of him, cough cough... forget it, this guy has come, it's okay.
And at this moment, the Dashi Kingdom sent the Tang envoy forward and said, "My ministers and others have come here on orders to submit the letter of the country. This is the top priority of this letter of the country. I beg your Majesty to accept it."
Li Shimin smiled and said, "Oh? But I don't know what it is?"
The Dashi Kingdom sent a Tang envoy to the Tang Dynasty: "Dashi is located in a remote place and lives in the foreign country for generations. Now, I respect the emperor's kindness, and all the people in the country are grateful to me. The emperor's power spreads all over the world and spreads to all directions. Therefore, the ministers and ministers are willing to ask Your Majesty to respect Your Majesty as the "Heaven Khan" to govern the country with this to show the emperor's honor."
After saying that, Babeke, the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, the envoy of the Persian State, Cyrus, also hurriedly said: "I wish you could accept it by your Majesty."
All the envoys sent to Tang responded one after another.
On this day, Khan, in history... was the respectful title of Li Shimin by various Turkic tribes after surrendering to the Turkic tribes.
Unfortunately... there was some deviation in history. The Turks were not subjugated, but died suddenly. Therefore, there were no Turkish tribes in this grassland, because... Tian Khan naturally did not appear.
