Chapter 692

"Yuan Shurong, don't talk nonsense! How could the emperor of the Great Food say such a thing? Can you also take the rumors in the market as true? If they are spread, do you know how much trouble they will cause?"

The eagle snapped out.

Yuan Shurong's expression was stunned, and he knew that he was speechless, so he immediately shut up.

"Enough, Eagle, what he said is true!"

Wang Chong stretched out his hand to stop the eagle.

All the different people, all the countries around the Tang Dynasty, all the monarchs, no matter how inferior and hateful they are to the Tang Dynasty in their hearts, it is impossible for them to dare to say such things in front of the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty.

Because it will be a source of calamity.

Moreover, such words will indeed lead to a fierce war between the two kingdoms, which is not no small matter. However, Wang Chong knew that the emperor of the Great Food had probably really said this.

Unlike the countries surrounding Datang, Dashi is extremely far away from Middle-earth, separated by thousands of miles and many countries. Moreover, the Great Food is extremely aggressive, and from the beginning of its birth, it has continued to expand, kill, and conquer in all directions.

The fact that Great Foods were able to have such a huge land area in this generation was by no means the result of their continuous expansion and annexation. From this point of view, it was not surprising that the Great Food Emperor would say such words of coveting Middle-earth.

In fact, the big cannibals are already sticking out their minions to Datang.

Hearing Wang Chong's words, Yuan Shurong raised his head and cast a grateful glance. I don't know why, this young "young marquis" gives him a feeling completely different from his powerful prince.

"Master Yuan, continue. ”

Wang Chong raised his hand and continued:

"The imperial court now needs some people who know about big food, but there are very few people who have actually been to big food, so naturally they can't ask anything. So from this aspect, we very much need the Master to give us some pertinent advice, because it is very important for us and for the imperial court. ”

In the end, Wang Chong's expression was solemn. Wang Chong can be said to have some understanding of the big food in this world, but Wang Chong still hasn't been to the big food. Whether it is in this life or before, Wang Chong's understanding of Datang is all on paper, as well as other people's oral narratives.

This kind of first-hand information has never been available.

"This ...... That is, the Hou Ye asked the villain to say, and the villain was bold. When the villain was young, he traveled to Da Shi, and he once felt that Da Shi would be the enemy of my Datang sooner or later. With their character, sooner or later they will covet Middle-earth. Moreover, the big cannibal is physically tall, he has drunk mare's milk, goat's milk, and eaten dates since he was a child, and then the climate is hot, and in terms of physique alone, I am afraid that he is much stronger than our Han people in China, and he is a natural warrior. Coupled with their habits, they are more in the habit of advocating bravery rather than fighting, so ...... The villain feels that the big cannibal warriors are probably even stronger than our Tang soldiers!"

Seeing that Wang Chong asked seriously, Yuan Shurong hesitated again and again, and finally said it.

As soon as the voice fell, the room was silent.

Eagle doesn't believe it very much, the people of the Tang Dynasty are famous for their bravery, otherwise it would be impossible to suppress the surrounding barbarians, and it would be impossible to achieve the current prosperity, but Yuan Shurong has traveled through the big food after all, and his words cannot be disbelieved.

As for Wang Chong, his heart was heavy.

Wang Chong had always known that the big cannibal was not easy to deal with, but Yuan Shurong's words still surprised him a little. Yuan Shurong should have been to the Western Regions and had seen the Anxi Protectors, but he still said this kind of thing, which can only show one point, those warriors of the Great Food must be extremely powerful, and they gave him a great shock, so it will be like this.

"Master Hou, with the temperament of a big cannibal, sooner or later he will be the enemy of my Datang. Don't be underestimated!"

Yuan Shurong lowered his head and said in a deep voice.

"Have you said that to anyone else?"

Wang Chong said with a solemn expression.

These words, the villain once said when he returned from his travels, and he also gave the court a fold, but unfortunately, he was banned by Honglu Temple, and he stayed in prison for seven years and ate prison food for seven years. ”

In the end, Yuan Shurong sighed deeply.

"Buzz!"

Wang Chong and Eagle were shocked.

"These bastards, is there any royal law!"

The eagle clenched his fists, furious. Yuan Shurong also had this kind of encounter, which neither of them expected.

"These guys have really gone too far. ”

Wang Chong's eyelids also jumped, if Yuan Shurong hadn't said these words himself, he wouldn't have known that he had this kind of experience if he killed Wang Chong. The establishment of Honglu Temple by the imperial court was originally to entertain envoys from various countries, showing that the Tang Dynasty is a state of benevolence, righteousness and etiquette.

But now, the entire Honglu Temple has gradually forgotten its original responsibilities and has become a place to curry favor with envoys from various countries and suppress its own people.

"Master Hou, I really have to do something. The people in Honglu Temple are really getting more and more excessive, and in the long run, Honglu Temple will not become a place to serve people. ”

The eagle turned his head to look at Wang Chongdao.

Wang Chong was silent, the matter of Honglu Temple is very complicated, and it cannot be explained in a word. Because Honglu Temple is directly responsible to the Holy Emperor, but the Holy Emperor has no heart to care about such a trivial matter.

Moreover, the actual controller behind Honglu Temple is not the Holy Emperor, but the King of Qi. As long as the King of Qi is there, it is by no means so simple to bring down the Honglu Temple.

But it's true that you can't indulge them like that.

"In Honglu Temple, there seems to be a person named Zheng Shenzhou, right? ”

Wang Chong said lightly.

"Did Master Hou say that Prince Uszang was the one last time......

The eagle said tentatively.

"Hmm. ”

Wang Chong nodded with a sneer, and there was a domineering look in his expression:

"It's time for Honglu Temple to teach them a lesson, to make an example of chickens and monkeys, let's start with Zheng Shenzhou, who flattered the Wusi Tibetans. ”

In the past, Wang Chong really had nothing to do with the officials of Honglu Temple, but now, with the power and status of the Wang family, coupled with the identity of the royal family of the Song Dynasty, it is enough to affect the situation in the court. It is really easy to replace Zheng Shenzhou, who suppressed his own people and curried favor with the Wusi Tibetans.

This can be regarded as a warning to Honglu Temple.

To put it mildly, Wang Chong had already decided the fate of an official of Honglu Temple, and even Yuan Shurong couldn't help but feel a slight shock in his heart, and he had a new understanding of the power and status of the young man in front of him.

"Master Yuan, to tell you the truth, I am going to build a school hall to teach the countries of the Western Regions, the Great Food, the Tiaozhi, the Body Poison, the Wusizang, and the languages of various countries, so as to increase our understanding of the surrounding foreign countries. I am ready to provide a lot of financial support for this school for a long time, but the school still lacks a gentleman. I wonder if the Master is willing?"

Wang Chong looked at Yuan Shurong in front of him, smiled, and said his true purpose in one word. The countries of the Western Regions have different languages, and if you want to travel through the Western Regions, you must have talents who understand the languages of various countries in the Western Regions, including Dashi and Tiaozhi.

And cultivating yourself now is the best way.

"Is this true?"

As soon as Wang Chong's voice fell, Yuan Shurong raised his head suddenly, his face full of surprise.

"What does the Master mean?"

Wang Chong said with a smile.

"I can't ask for it, I can't ask for it......"

Yuan Shurong was excited. His life's goal is to build a school to teach the languages of the Western Regions and the Fanren, and increase the Tang Dynasty's understanding of various foreign countries, so as to avoid miscalculations and endless disasters.

It's a pity that after decades in Jingshi, no one is willing to fund him at all, everyone is either despised or ridiculed, Yuan Shurong was depressed, so he decided to leave Jingshi and go to the Western Regions.

When Wei Guo and Wei Wu found him, he had already packed up his baggage.

However, Yuan Shurong didn't expect that just when he was the most unwilled and frustrated, there would be such a big turnaround.

"Hahaha, Master, I'll leave this to you in the future. Eagle, you can arrange this matter. Build the school as soon as possible, and tell Hu Lao and Ye Lao to select talented children from various families and send them to the school to learn the languages of various countries. ”

Wang Chong laughed loudly.

After getting Yuan Shurong Yuan Master, Wang Chong's plan to pass through the Western Regions was really like a tiger with wings, and with the addition of Yuan Master, a key figure, the last loophole in his plan was filled.

"Yes, Master Hou. ”

The eagle said, and quickly led Yuan Shurong away.

Not long after Eagle and Yuan Shurong left, Wang Chong's last guest of the day appeared.

"Villain Yang Hongchang, meet Master Hou. ”

With a loud voice, a middle-aged man who looked like a businessman, with a slightly chubby body, ten fingers with ten agate rings, and a red coral jade pendant hanging from his waist, walked in with his head held high and bowed to Wang Chong.

"You're welcome, get up. ”

Wang Chong raised his hand slightly. Unlike Yuan Shurong, seeing this middle-aged businessman, Wang Chong went straight to the point:

"I heard that Mr. is very good at business, and he also has contacts with the Hu merchants of the Western Regions on the Silk Road, and he once went deep into the big food and sold ceramics and tea?"

"Hou Ye is in love, the clan does do some small business, and also has some dealings with some Hu merchants. However, Hu Shang is very xenophobic and reluctant to do business with businessmen other than his own, so our business has not been big, that is, some small transactions. ”

"As for the big food and the strips...... In the early years, the family didn't know that the sky was high and the earth was thick, and they folded a lot of money in the big food and strips, but they didn't make any money, so they barely mixed up their reputation. ”

Yang Hongchang said.

"Hmm. ”

Wang Chong nodded, the merchants of the Western Regions and Tiaozhi and Dashi were extremely xenophobic, and the Yang Hongchang in front of him, as well as the Yang family he was born in, were one of the few families in the Tang Dynasty that could make a living on the Silk Road.

"There is a Talas city on the Silk Road, I wonder if Mr. Yang knows?"

"Talas?"

Yang Hongchang finally raised his head and looked at the young man in front of him, with a somewhat surprised expression:

"The Anxi Protectorate went out of the city more than 700 miles to the west, which is Talas. It was the territory of Zhaowu Jiu's surname Li Shiguo, and the city lord was called Said, and the villain had the honor to meet him when he was doing business in the Western Regions in his early years. ”
