The team did not stop and wait for Wei Lizheng.

They were moving forward slowly, with Loulan soldiers in front of them helping to clear the road surface and lead the way.

After walking about ten miles, a burst of dust rose from the road opposite, and obviously a large number of cavalry arrived.

Liu Mingqi looked up and saw a heroic white-helmet, white-armored, white-horse general, galloping over with a group of cavalry wearing uniform brown armor.

The Loulan team did not provide an early warning, but instead stood on both sides of the road.

Obviously, this is Wei Lizheng and his guards.

“Well…”

When the white-armored general rushed within a range of 100 meters, he began to tie the reins of the horse and slowed down.

It took about twenty meters before the cavalry teams all stopped.

"How is it?" Liu Mingqi asked in a low voice.

"It's okay to look at the shelves, and the horses equipped are really good! They are all white!" Liu Mingjing replied.

This is not because of Liu Mingjing's perfunctory answer.

Only when any team is actually fighting can you know whether it is a strong army.

There are too many fancy armies, and you can't tell if you just look at the appearance.

As a de facto generation of generals, Liu Mingjing is certainly qualified to say this.

If Liu Mingjing hadn't had any experience in commanding large-scale troops alone, he could have been called a famous general based on his current record.

As for the excellent horses of this group of army, Liu Mingqi also saw that.

Not only are they generally over 1.5 meters tall, they are also extremely divine, shining under the sunlight, and they are very good at seeing them.

Unfortunately, Dakang had no chance to get such a horse before, so he could only import it from the small tribal alliance.

If there were such a species earlier and after breeding it, many better horses might have been bred.

After the white-armored general there stopped, he immediately turned over and got off the horse and walked towards Liu Mingqi and the others.

Since they are so polite, Liu Mingqi and the others did the same.

When the two sides walked together, the white-armored general first closed his hands and bowed down and bowed: "Loulan's small country, Prince Wei Lizheng, have seen the Great Kang Heavenly Dynasty, Prince De, and His Highness of Prince Wu!"

Even Liu Mingqi was stunned by his ancient etiquette.

This was the first time they had seen such a polite person after going out to the front line.

Liu Mingqi saw someone politely in this way at the ceremony of the court.

Speaking of which, Wei Lizheng is a bit too polite, but it is very normal for Prince Loulan like him.

The levels are different, and the etiquette is different.

Oh, right.

He also called himself "the prince", meaning that Loulan is a kingdom, not a dynasty, so the difference here is huge.

The kingdom is obviously lower than the dynasty, so he, the prince, is one level lower than the prince, which is the origin of the etiquette of superiority and inferiority.

Thoughts flashed by.

"The Great Kant King Liu Mingqi, I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince of the King." After Liu Mingqi returned the gift seriously, he stepped forward and helped him up: "Your Highness the Prince of the King, we should not be too polite. Let's go to the city first!"

The boy was also afraid that he would be like a scheming old master and his every move would be in line with ancient etiquette, so he said hello in advance.

Wei Lizheng didn't think so much, but he felt that this world-famous King De, gentle and elegant, was truly a saint of the world.

He immediately turned around and waved his hand and said, "Please, two of your highnesses!"

The prince of Loulan Kingdom, along with Liu Mingqi and the others, got on the horse and walked in front of the team.

He looked at Liu Mingqi and his team curiously, then at his team, and held back his questions.

A smile appeared on Liu Mingjing's lips. He really thought that Prince Loulan was overestimating his ability and wanted to do something.

If it was a competition, he wouldn't mind letting Wei Lizheng make a fool of himself now.

After all, Liu Mingqi told him that the most important thing for these outsiders is to show their strength.

Only when they feel that your strength is so strong that they cannot compete with each other, will they respect you from the bottom of their hearts.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to convince these people who look at problems and practice based on a set of Confucian morality, which is just a set of courtesy, righteousness, integrity and shame.

The same is true for Wei Lizheng.

If Liu Mingqi and Liu Mingjing did not win such a huge gap with the Persian army, would he drive him out far away and wait for him and come to greet him in person?

Obviously not.

So Liu Mingjing agrees with what Liu Mingqi told him very much.

"Dignity and axioms are only within our attack."

...

After entering Loulanxi City, I realized that this place is not as good as I imagined.

First of all, the planning inside seems a bit messy. The houses are built in different sizes, and the protruding and concave are all next to each other.

This is very awkward.

Then the shops and stalls are also very casual. Some jewelry stores are next to butchers, and some teahouses are setting up stalls to sell fruits and melons...

The clothes worn by the civilians in the city are somewhat torn, which is significantly different from those of the merchants.

These ordinary people usually have the hardships of life on their faces. Although they are not as thin as a man, they still feel like they are burdened on their shoulders.

This is nothing.

The key is that the pits inside are bumpy and there is a lot of feces or garbage on the roadside. You will smell a stinking smell when you walk over.

This is not a section of the area, but it has been a little better after walking around half of the city until it reaches the area where the city guard is located.

Of course, this is not just a problem with Loulan. Liu Mingqi has been through this way, almost all the Western Region cities are like this.

They don't seem to care about the cleanliness of the city.

Liu Mingqi didn't say anything else along the way, but just listened to Wei Lizheng talking about the history and stories of Loulan and the cultural heritage that emerged here.

The founding of Loulan has been for more than two hundred years, and it is longer than Dakang.

But this is also because their territory is not large enough and their military strength is not strong enough.

The strong men on the grassland need to keep them in business, make money for themselves, and provide various conveniences for themselves - this is much more convenient, labor-saving than doing it themselves.

It is precisely because they have been established for a long time that they still have their own cultural heritage.

But to Liu Mingqi, it sounds like it is just a state of a frog in the well.

It’s not that they are arrogant, but that they have no good idea of ​​their own understanding of culture and the development of inheritance.

To put it bluntly, it is not as good as the large clans in Dakang.

The Loulan royal family had its own other palace around the city guard palace, so Wei Lizheng lived here temporarily.

After walking into another palace, it looked very spacious and clean.

Although the ground was still tamped with earth, when you walked into the corridor and the hall, it was full of neat solid wood floors.

There were also many servants and maids in other palaces. Liu Mingqi and the others sat in the hall under the guidance of Wei Lizheng. They had already brought the plates with a cold towel inside them, which was specially designed for them to wipe the sweat and dirt on their bodies.

Then he brought a small ball of air-conditioning for each person.

Looking at this familiar thing, Liu Mingqi said in surprise: "Prince, has this ice cream been transmitted to the Western Regions?"

This is the ice cream invented by Liu Mingqi.

Whether it is ice cream, milk tea, or even methods of feeding pigs, Liu Mingqi is all published to the public, so that the people can benefit on weekdays.

But unexpectedly, it spread to the distant Western Regions.

"more than."

Wei Lizheng laughed, "This thing has been spread to Persia. It is said that the Persian emperor does not eat ice cream every day and does not drink milk tea. My father is the same. Although he is not young, he also likes it very much... None of the nobles in Loulan don't like it. Especially girls like my sister, they love it the most."

Well, so many things have not changed in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad.

As long as it is a good thing, no matter how high or low it is, they like it.

As long as it is a bad thing, no one likes it even in the space age - for example, eating shit.

I can't say that you just want to take a few squinting eyes and pockish faces. I object, you insist that this is what you like, this is your work ethics, I must like it. I forcefully feed me shit, and I'm not allowed to yell, right?

It’s your preferences and style, why don’t you take photos of yourself like this?

Speaking of this, Wei Lizheng sighed, "Your Highness is so talented. Without your guidance and methods, how could we get something so delicious to make?"

The boy smiled and shook his hand, "These are not important. As for us men, these are all small pastimes. It is really better to do something that benefits the country and the people."

"So I admire you so much!" Wei Lizheng said seriously: "Inventing things like ice cream and milk tea can make you rich and noble, but this is just a very insignificant one of your greatness. What I admire most is that you have both civil and military skills, and have repeatedly turned the tide, which has truly made the whole world re-recognized Dakang!"

"Oh?" Liu Mingqi asked, "How do you say this?"
