Chapter 671: Internal and External Troubles
"We were also in the city at the time, so we also made a move to protect ourselves, and the empress didn't have to be too polite. Tang Sanzang smiled and waved his hand, the empress was still quite sincere and went to the door of the main hall to greet her.
"Sit down. The Empress said, walking towards the throne above.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please. Shen Lingwei said, and also walked towards the front first.
The civil and military officials stood on both sides, looking at Tang Sanzang who was walking forward, his eyes lit up, if he didn't dare to make noise at will on this hall, it would probably be impossible to help but discuss.
Several palace maids moved six chairs out and asked Tang Sanzang and his party to sit down, the empress sat on the throne, looking at Tang Sanzang who was seated, he had regained his composure, and said with a smile: "After the return of the general yesterday, he and I described what happened in detail, the master killed hundreds of giants outside the town alone, which can be described as incomparably powerful, and several high-level disciples also used the means to reach the sky, and solved the great disaster of my daughter's country, so I decided that Master Feng is my daughter's national protector of the French teacher, and several senior disciples are the great heavenly master, I don't know what the master and several elders think?"
As soon as Tang Sanzang sat down, he didn't expect the king to give such a powerful news, and directly give him an official, and the so-called protector of France, referring to the words of Che Chiguo before, is only under the king, is it really a little hesitant to throw such a big piece of cake this time?
As soon as the empress said this, not only Tang Sanzang was surprised, but even Shen Lingwei on the side and the civil and military officials standing below also had untouched expressions, looking at the empress, and then at Tang Sanzang, they wanted to speak and stopped, and finally their eyes fell on Shen Lingwei, who was the most favored by the empress.
"Your Majesty......" Shen Lingwei saw that everyone was looking at her, and it was not good to say nothing, looking at the empress and said hesitantly. Last night, several ministers were summoned to the palace overnight, and after discussion, it was decided to try to keep Tang Sanzang and his party to stay.
Tang Sanzang already has a few disciples who are as beautiful as immortals around him, so it is estimated that the beauty is not very attractive, and it may not allow him to stay, and as a person who learns the scriptures of the Tang Dynasty, his status in the Tang Dynasty may not be very high, so after discussing it, everyone felt that they might try to use their power to keep him, and it should be almost the same for a protector of the Heavenly Master with a three-rank position, and the three-rank can be regarded as a high-ranking member in the court.
But I didn't expect that as soon as the empress saw Tang Sanzang today, what she threw out of her mouth was the protector of France, this name that doesn't sound simple, there really was this position in the history of the daughter country, above the first grade, only under the emperor, it can be said that it is a proper official position above 10,000 people under one person.
"Needless to say. The empress raised her head and interrupted Shen Lingwei's words, looked at Tang Sanzang, who was still a little distracted, and continued to ask, "I don't know what the master wants?"
"Your Majesty, the poor monks and apprentices came from the Eastern Tang Dynasty, they were going to the West Heaven to learn scriptures, they walked tens of thousands of miles all the way, and they did not reach the West Heaven, so it was really bad to stop in the middle, and it was in vain to waste a piece of my Tang King's expectations, so I am afraid that this matter will not be done. Tang Sanzang shook his head with his hands together, looking at the empress, he felt quite close, in that distant place, there was also an empress, but I am afraid that he was the only man who had seen her look when she became the empress.
is also a king, obviously the king of this daughter country wants to live a much more relaxed and comfortable life, no need to waste effort to dress up as a man, and there is no need to bother to make such a big Tang Empire, conquer the east and west, and become a huge empire standing in the east.
"Okay!" Zhu Tian almost blurted out, but fortunately, Sha Wanjing on the side watched and covered her mouth at the critical moment, this kind of decision can naturally only be made by Tang Sanzang, although the daughter country is very good, but the master's obsession with going to the West Heaven to learn scriptures is still very deep, not to mention that the things they are carrying are indeed not suitable for living here for a long time.
"Can't you do it?" the empress looked at Tang Sanzang, a little disappointed.
Shen Lingwei, who originally wanted to remind the empress, not only did not feel relieved when she heard this, but she was also a little disappointed, originally thought that being able to be above 10,000 people in the daughter country should be a condition that all men in the world have no way to refuse, but she didn't expect Tang Sanzang to refuse directly without thinking about it, not a vague refusal, but a refusal that clearly tells you the reason, and there is no room for negotiation.
"Da Tang, is it really that good?" the empress looked at Tang Sanzang and asked again, at this moment, the empress's breath seemed to surge all of a sudden, and looking at Tang Sanzang's gaze, she couldn't help but feel a little more oppressive.
"Yes, Datang is indeed very good. Tang Sanzang nodded without the slightest hesitation, Datang is good, if you really want to talk about it, it is really endless, the farther you go, the more you feel that Datang is good, and you feel that the emperor who governs Datang in an orderly manner is powerful, of course, she is also a little distressed, this girl has also spent a lot of effort in it, otherwise how can such a huge empire run normally and become more and more powerful.
The empress looked at Tang Sanzang's decisive gaze, was silent for a while, and nodded in disappointment, "It seems that my daughter's country is still not enough to make the master tempted, I, the king, am really a failure." ”
"......" Tang Sanzang looked at the empress like a little girl who had done something wrong, felt a little funny, and a little embarrassed, and hesitated and said: "Your Majesty's words are wrong, what the poor monk saw when he entered the city, his daughter's national style is simple, and the country is peaceful and peaceful, all of which show that Your Majesty governs the country well, how can there be a reason to fail, it is actually a generation of Ming Jun." ”
"Really?" the empress's eyes lit up, and she asked as she looked at Tang Sanzang.
"Don't dare to bully the king. Tang Sanzang nodded, and silently said sorry to his conscience, to say that the people are simple, after entering the daughter country, he is worried everywhere that he will be knocked down in the next moment, it is simply terrifying.
Although the empress was quite happy when she heard the words, she lost her smile after a while, shook her head, and said with some worry: "The master doesn't know, the so-called stability is just the appearance, my daughter country is now suffering from internal and external troubles, and I don't know how long this wall can be supported, and how long the people of my daughter country can live so carefree." When the walls are broken, everything will be destroyed with it. ”
Tang Sanzang looked at the empress, it turned out that she also knew about the city wall that the situation in the daughter country was indeed not optimistic, I am afraid that this was also the reason why she wanted them to stay.
But...... I'm afraid they won't be able to help with this matter, they are now paying off their own debts, and I don't know how many people want to trouble them, and any one of them is not something that the daughter country can afford.
However, out of politeness, Tang Sanzang still asked with a curious expression: "Oh, I don't know what Your Majesty is talking about external troubles, and what about internal worries?"
