Chapter 766 Driving the Dragon into the Sea (Part 2)
"You, you," she shook her head and smiled, "It's really worth knowing me. Well, please don't hesitate to me. I'll go back to Yunnan now, hoping to send people here earlier. The border people have suffered for thousands of years, and hope for peace and development. It's like a baby looking forward to the kindness of his parents, and can't be delayed anymore!"
After saying that, my feet were a little bit like a breeze in the clouds, and several ups and downs disappeared.
Wei Yang felt a little emotional in his heart. He didn't expect that this Blue Phoenix was also...
It's amazing to have dreams.
Although the horse was urged to leave, the sky was clear for a while, and a bright moon emerged from the East China Sea and measured the east sky. Finally, after the rain passed, the sky was clear and the light finally came.
The red horse was also very brisk, and his feet were like stepping on clouds and fog. He didn't realize that the city of Xi'an was in sight, but it was time to block the city gate.
Wei Yang came quickly, but the soldiers dared not stop him.
However, after entering the city, Wei Yang hesitated and rode his horse straight to the royal city.
Things in the southwest are a good opportunity to test the emperor.
At this moment, the emperor was talking to the envoys. Envoys from various countries came here to congratulate the King of Qin for their wedding, and another purpose was to form an alliance with each other.
They were scared by Wei Yang, even in Japan.
However, they also found that the relationship between the western border and the imperial court was particularly bad, so they stayed in Xi'an Prefecture for a month, and wanted to make friends with the imperial court and even provoked the imperial court to oppose the western border. The old emperor let them go for more than a month, and gave them a banquet today, secretly having the intention of expelling them.
After dinner, the group of people had different thoughts. In addition, they learned that Wei Yang went out of the east gate, and with their eyes, they naturally could not see Wei Yang's intention of being free. They just felt that it was a good opportunity to provoke, so they found an excuse to stay and reach an oral agreement with the emperor.
There is another one here who eats melons, which are the countries in the south of Yunnan, headed by Annan, which has been closely related to the country for many years.
"Your Majesty, it has been several years since the last imperial examination edict was issued. I wonder when the next edict will be issued?" Seeing that everyone had made excuses to stay and speak, Annan envoy, Li Minkang, the confidant of King Li of Annan, coughed and asked.
The old emperor smiled and said, "No need to issue a special edict. You are already familiar with the legal system of the dynasty. By the day of the imperial examination, you will be in charge."
Since the third year of Hongwu, Annan has basically sent domestic literary scholars to participate in every imperial examination, which can be regarded as the country with the closest contacts with the Ming Dynasty.
Nor, it cannot be considered as a communication between countries, because although Emperor Xuande deposed the Jiaozhi Governor General and Jiaozhi Dusi set up by Emperor Taizong, it was set up after the Annan Kingdom was destroyed, but the ruler of Annan must be enthroned by the Ming Dynasty before it can be justified. Therefore, Annan regards the Ming Dynasty as the sect leader, which is considered to be a matter of internal governance.
Therefore, the old emperor's words did not humiliate the envoy Annan. He was just stating a fact, and Li Minkang did not feel embarrassed.
But this conversation could not continue. Although Li Minkang was just an envoy, he was also the confidant of the Lord Annan. His existence was an important means for the Lord Annan to deter the powerful officials in the country - if you dare to rebel, I would ask my father to beat you - so this is not a nonsense. He did not have the courage to ask the Ming Dynasty when he would ignore their own affairs like the envoys of the Tatar Oirat and other countries. Therefore, he did not know what to do when he retreated to the ranks.
The old emperor was in a bad mood, but it was not very bad either. He looked at these people with a smile, understood all their little ones, and then said, "All countries have the will to congratulate the prince's wedding. Now I have a long time to keep you. Before going back this time, I have a special reward. As for what you have in the country, you can discuss it with the ministers."
"Your Majesty!" The envoy of the Ola immediately said, "The Ming Dynasty threatened all over the world, and there was no herder in our country who dared to go out to herd horses. He was forced to hide in the new city. If this continues, he would be afraid of damaging the friendship between the two countries..."
"Ah, you are talking about this, it's easy to deal with," the old emperor smiled. "Our army is coming out everywhere, just to ensure the safety of the caravan. Go back and tell Dayankhan, so that he will not be nervous and have no malice to him."
The messenger said angrily: "But since ancient times, nomadic peoples have built cities and lived there?"
"Isn't this happening? If you get used to it, you will feel normal." The old emperor nodded, "Just as I was not used to it at the beginning. After all, since ancient times, there has been no story about my Han family riding on the grassland and using the grassland as their own ranch? Look, don't I get used to it now? Put my heart in my stomach and go into the city to stay. Our army has no malice towards you."
The envoy was so angry that he was worried about it?
The Western Army always showed off its might and turned around at your city gate, saying, "Look at what new needs you have in your life now." In the long run, the Tatars or the grassland people are?
Now it is even more disgusting. After Wang Shouren arrived in Shanhaiguan, he also learned the actions of the Western Army. He had to go around the grassland for a while. If he had nothing to do, he would have to do something, or to feed the horses, or to work with the grassland people, especially those who could not enter the city and could not obtain bulk daily necessities to do some business about a small amount of war horses and salt. The transaction was very fair, but in the long run, could these people still be loyal soldiers of Dayan Khan?
"By the way, you have to give Da Yankhan a message, do business, be honest. He collected our goods before, but the war horses he had agreed to have not been sent to the Bohai Governor's Office. You did this so hard," the emperor said worriedly, "If you don't have faith, you have to be responsible for the military expenses of our army, and you have to pay extra compensation. Do you understand what I mean?"
The envoy angrily retorted: "Don't you know that your Majesty has already given it to the Western Army?"
"I know," sighed the old emperor, "but this is not that you have neither received invoices nor given certificates, nor did you receive notification from you, and the Western Army is not sure what to do. You know that they have too many people and will inevitably make mistakes."
The envoys were shocked.
Aren’t you a scoundrel? The Western Army obviously took it away!
"They also talked about this. Did the supplies be lost?" The old emperor spread his hands. "Whether it was lost or you didn't give it to me, in short, I didn't receive the war horse you promised, that was, I didn't give it to me, you have to be responsible."
This is...
When did the Ming Dynasty become so shameless?
At this moment, a great Han general outside the door reported: "Your Majesty, Duke Qin is back and is waiting for the audience outside the palace."
Huh?
An envoy from various countries suddenly felt a strong feeling of anxiety.
Didn’t he go out of the east gate and head straight for the capital?!
Why are you back?
The old emperor smiled and said, "Probably, the peonies in Luoyang are not in full bloom yet, Xuan."
Wei Yang was talking to Wang Zhi.
Wang Zhi also went out before returning from the north.
"Why are you so worried about the Duke?" Wang Zhi asked while walking.
Wei Yang said: "The southwest direction is very worried."
"Qian Duke's Mansion?" Wang Zhi frowned slightly, "That's really hard to deal with, but what is the Duke's man doing there?"
He also came from the southwest, knowing the barrenness and desire there, so he just thought Wei Yang was talking about it...
Um?
wrong!
