The state banquet of Qianyang Hall lasted until the end of the evening, and on the state banquet, Yang Tong gave a return gift in public according to the standards of commercial banquets in later generations, of course, all of which were glass products known as glass. Oriental glaze is a combination of traditional culture and art, with colorful and beautiful colors; The quality is crystal clear and dazzling, which is the exquisite, delicate and subtle embodiment of the Oriental people, and the fusion of thought, emotion and art.

When all kinds of products are presented one by one, their brilliant and magnificent magical colors dazzle the men and women sitting there.

Yang Tong is not treated equally, according to the relatives and sparse feedback, for example, the Tubo representative Lu Dongzan got the big road goods, is a set of wine utensils, followed the Sui army into the court to ask for the guilt of the Tuyuhun representative is the same, the king of Yanqi, the king of Qiuzi and other countries in the Western Regions, the princess of Silla, Ashina Simo got not only a lot of glass, but also different exquisite products, in these countries, it is obviously a thought, this is also to let others know that these countries are Yang Tong's key 'customers'. Of course, Yang Tong will also kindly remind that similar goods are sold in the royal shops in Beishi - Supply and Marketing Cooperatives, when these people go to see, they will find that there are many luxury goods to buy, and they want to buy everything, but they can't buy all the money in their hands, what should I do? All countries have big business travelers in Luoyang, and when the time comes, I am afraid that they can only borrow money from these business travelers.

It was also at this state banquet that Yang Tong put forward the concept of 'embassy' and clarified its functions, the current international situation is not as complex as in the 21st century, and most of its functions are to contact the official of the host country and speak on behalf of the country's business travel.

The countries of the Western Regions are very familiar with this, because the Great Sui is located in their country, and they also know that it has a huge role in strengthening bilateral relations. It's just that the Great Sui is here, but there is no embassy for them, and the monarch said on the spot that he will send important ministers to settle in, while some important ministers who represent their own countries have more thoughts, and plan to fight for this position from the king after they go back.

After a long period of commotion, the banquet completely dispersed.

And when Yang Tong and Wei Feng danced to the Huiyou Palace, the palace was brightly lit, and the husband and wife just entered the hall, and they saw the two queen mothers, two queen mothers, Nanyang princess, Lujiang princess and several imperial concubines chattering and talking about something, bursts of laughter from time to time, several of Yang Tong's children ran and frolicked in the hall, and there were more than ten strange-looking boxes in the corner of the hall, from the appearance, these boxes were full of exotic style.

"See my husband and eldest sister!"

"See Father, Emperor and Mother!"

Seeing the arrival of the emperor, everyone saluted.

"This is not the former dynasty, and the family does not have to be formal." After Yang Tong took his seat, he looked at these boxes, and said with a half-drunk smile: "Others say, 'People sit at home, and disaster comes from heaven', what is this?" This is called: 'A man sits in the middle of the court, and profit comes from the heavens.' ’”

Everyone laughed when they heard this!

Speaking of this, we have to mention the envoys who entered the court, among these countries, there are two countries that are more special, that is, Zhangxiong and Tubo, which are a pair of sworn enemies in the west of the Great Sui.

The Tibetan kingdom of Langri Zampu had achieved outstanding military achievements in recent years, and the Tubo kingdom was in a transition period from tribal alliance to imperial centralization. But the Tubo kingdom headed by Langri Zampu has not yet done a good job of changing from a tribal alliance to a centralized imperial structure, and Langri Zampu cannot control this drastic change from decentralization to integration, from relaxation to centralization, and there is no civilization background of the Great Unification Dynasty, so he doesn't know how to integrate all forces, let alone know how to govern, so the Tubo Kingdom under his rule is the same as the previous Eastern and Western Turks, and the strong only relies on the personal prestige of his strong man to control the various departments. But as long as this strong man dies, the nature of the tribal alliance will be exposed. The current Langri Zampu, just like Shibi Khan, did not care about the interior, but thought about conquering a country when he saw it.

Among the objects he wants to conquer, there is the country of Zhangxiong west of Tubo, Zhangxiong is also called Yangtong, compared with the Tubo of the local tyrants, Zhangxiong is an ancient civilization of the Eight Classics, has a history of more than 2,000 years, is a centralized country with its own writing, they are not a completely closed country, and the Central Plains, the Western Regions and other places have exchanges.

However, the country is based on Buddhism, and Zhangzhung Buddhism is not only the core of Zhangzhung culture, but also the source of Tibetan Buddhism and the root of all Buddhism. And when a country where the whole people believe in a sect that cannot fight back and scold back, the combat effectiveness of the country's army can be imagined. Therefore, this country with profound heritage naturally became the focus of the Tibetan attack. But when the country was at stake, the Buddha also exerted his might. Because this is a country with a long heritage, the royal family has a very high prestige for the country, and at the sound of an order, the young people of the country put down the Buddhist scriptures, picked up the war knife and fought with Tubo.

In order to speed up the unification of the surrounding countries, Langri Zampu decided to temporarily let go of the stubborn resistance of Zhangxiong and go all out to the east, in order to ensure the stability of the rear, he wanted to marry his own sister to the new lord of Zhangxiong, Li Mixia, in an attempt to control the internal affairs of Zhangxiong through the "lady line", and it was best to be able to give birth to a prince to inherit the throne directly, so that he could occupy Zhangxiong without blood. But Li Mixia is also a heroic hero, not to mention a fool, Lao Tzu doesn't want your sister, don't do this with Lao Tzu.

Langri Zampu is helpless, that's okay, you don't want my sister, then I want your sister.

Li Mixia has only one sister Li Tuman, cherished very much, when he heard that Lang Ri Zanpu was so excessive, he immediately exploded, no matter how strong your dog's Lang Ri soldiers are, Lao Tzu is not afraid of you, I want to marry my baby sister, there is no crack in the door, let's continue to fight, even if Lao Tzu can't beat you, he can bite a few bites of meat on you.

So, Li Mixia, who risked his life, got on with Langri Zanpu, and Tubo's center of gravity at this time was in the east, so the two sides were inseparable, which was also the main reason why Tubo joined forces with Tuyuhun to share the party's items.

In the final analysis, the fight is the national strength, the family background, whose family foundation is thick, the land area is large, the population is large, the Xiangxiong country is small and the people are widowed, the land area is less than one-third of Tubo, and the army has been a high monk for a long time, there is no good general, how can it be the opponent of the Tubo army that has been fighting, even if it occasionally wins, it is a tragic victory of killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred, after so many years of fighting, Zhangxiong's family is almost exhausted, so after Li Mixia heard about the demeanor of the Great Sui, he sent a messenger to Feng Princess Li Tuman into the court, Please ask the Emperor of the Great Sui to uphold justice and preserve the Xiangxiong Guozuo.

And Langri Zampu heard that Li Mixia sent an envoy to Sui, and his sister was the leader, so he also sent Lu Dongzan, a rookie from Tubo, to escort his eldest son Dazan Gampo to Sui with an envoy group, his purpose was nothing more than to destroy Li Mixia's mind, so as not to drag the powerful Sui to the footsteps of Tubo dominating the plateau.

The two envoys almost arrived in Luoyang, and I don't know if it was the intention of the officials of the Honglu Division who had been merged into the Ministry of Rites, or whether Zhangxiong and Tubo did not agree, and the envoys of the two countries were actually arranged to become neighbors.

At the beginning, the two sides were just sneering and fighting, but after a few days, both families scolded the fire, early this morning, the two sides made an appointment, each sent ten warriors to Dingdingmen to fight alone, the result was naturally ten dead, coincidentally five each died, which was a tie.

As a result, Dazan Gampo actually jumped out and launched a heads-up invitation to the Zhangxiong princess Li Tuman, which made the onlookers of the Great Sui people quite disdainful and spurned, you are a big guy and three coarse, so a delicate little girl, can you not be so shameless? Unexpectedly, Li Tuman was a little pepper, she not only responded to the battle, but also cut off one of Dazan Gampo's arms, which made Tubo lose face and throw it to the Great Sui.

Of course, this is also the result of the deliberate indulgence of the officials of the Honglu Division and the caretaker of the Sui army, for the officials and soldiers of the Great Sui, looking at a group of foreigners on this cold day is not only cold, but also boring. Tubo and Zhangxiong are dog-eat-dog, one does not involve the people of the Great Sui, and the other is lively to watch, so it doesn't matter to them to die some barbarians, they scold and fight with relish. But after all, there was a death, and even the eldest son of Tubo Zampu lost an arm, so Honglu Si naturally had to report to Zhang Xuan, the chief official of the Ministry of Rites, and these boxes on the ground were gifts from Princess Zhangxiong to the women of the court when Yang Tong summoned him alone.

The Xiangxiong Kingdom has been inherited for thousands of years, and it is relatively familiar with the set of harry/palace routes.

"These on the ground were given to you by the princess Li Tuman of the Xiangxiong Kingdom, as the so-called no, everyone has a share in the wealth that fell from heaven, stay for a while, and ask the imperial grandmother to share it."

Saying that, Yang Tong's eyes looked at Empress Xiao, who was already a person with a great-grandson, but she was still graceful and luxurious, and her beauty was peerless, and the years seemed to love her very much, and she was still so beautiful that she was almost demonic! Judging from her appearance alone, at most she thinks she is in her early thirties, who would have thought that she is a person who is almost sixty.

Later, Yang Tong found out that the other Empress Xiao was the same, so he asked Xiao Yuexian curiously, only to know that the Xiao family has a set of maintenance secrets from the inside out, which are used by both men and women. Thinking about it carefully, Yang Tong found that not only Xiao Yu was young and handsome, but also Xiao Yu, who had not seen him for many years, so he asked her to write down the recipe and use it according to the prescription for his wife, so that Xiao's maintenance secret recipe would naturally become the Yang family.

"Okay!" Empress Xiao smiled and responded, in this family, she has the highest seniority, Yang Tong and Wei Fengwu respect her very much, which makes her very happy.

The eldest daughter, Yang Xifang, ran over at this time and interjected: "Father, do I also have a share?" ”

In her eyes, the queen mother, concubine, and aunt who have been rewarded by their father from time to time are all very rich, and although their brothers and sisters have a lot of rewards, they are all children, and their fathers reward them with delicious and fun things, never give money, even if they give strange treasures, they were confiscated by her mother Lu Qinghua in a blink of an eye, saying that they were for her to keep it, and then there was no more. When I asked my sister Yang Hui and younger brother Yang Zheng, I learned that they were the same as myself, and soon after the father's reward arrived, they were confiscated by the queen mother, for the same reason.

"It's all there!" Yang Tong said very angrily.

"Long live Father!"

Under the leadership of Yang Xifang, a bunch of children pounced on Yang Tong.

This one gnaws on the face, and the other bites the nose.

"Don't move! Don't move! Don't move...... I'm going to throw up! ”

Yang Tong drank a lot tonight, although he drank wine, but everyone toasted a glass, which constituted a huge amount of alcohol, and he was half drunk to death, and he was pressed by a bunch of cute babies, and almost squirted out. When these children heard this, they were so frightened that they all ran away.

"Although it's a state banquet, you can't drink so much!"

Without waiting for others to react, Yang Qinfang ran to Yang Dong's side, smelled the smell of wine on Yang Tong's body, and couldn't help complaining.

All of a sudden, in addition to chasing and playing children, the adults looked at each other, and their faces became weird, this kind of thing should be done by Yang Tong's first and fifth concubines, but Yang Qinfang, who was the aunt, rushed to come.

In front of everyone's eyes, I saw Yang Qinfang pouring the decanting soup with her hands and feet, carefully blowing a few mouthfuls, and pouring spoonfuls into Yang Tong's mouth, her movements and expressions were quite gentle, like a little daughter-in-law.

The two Empress Xiao glanced at each other, and they both saw a strong melancholy in each other's eyes.

Yang Xifang was favored by Yang Dong, although Wei Fengwu and the eldest grandson Wujian felt that it was inappropriate, they didn't think much about anything else, they just thought that Yang Qinfang and Yang Dong were close. But some subtle changes in Yang Qinfang, but they couldn't hide it from the two Xiao Hou who were closest to her, thinking of Yang Qinfang's stubbornness in refusing to marry, and after becoming Yang Dong's personal guard, she smirked from time to time and other signs, and the two knew that Yang Qinfang had a sweetheart - and this man was undoubtedly Yang Tong.

The two looked at Yang Qinfang, who was acting strangely, and Yang Tong, who was half drunk and half awake, and couldn't help but stroke their foreheads and sigh.

For the first time, it is also a kind of trouble to feel that your grandson is too good, no one is blind, who doesn't like a good man who is powerful and talented? If it were other girls, they would also be happy to see it, after all, there are too many royal heirs, but the one who likes Yang Tong is Yang Qinfang, which makes it difficult for people to do it.

In this strange atmosphere, a female official came quickly, bowed, and reported to Yang Tongyu: "Holy Lord, Li Guogong has 100,000 urgent matters, come to report. ”

"What?"

Yang Tong's mind was a little dizzy and he couldn't hear clearly.

"The general of the right guard, Shen Guang, the Duke of Li Guo, has a very urgent matter, and he asks to see the saint!" The female officer said it again.

"Oh?"

Yang Tong was stunned and said, "Where is he?" ”

"Tongming Palace!"

Tongming Hall is the place where the emperor has a conversation or a courtier waiting to be received, and to the east of it is the Xuanzheng Hall where the Chang Dynasty is held. Chang Dynasty, that is, the court meeting held every day, the number of people is small but the level is high, it is a kind of court meeting for monarchs and ministers to do practical things.

"Let him wait for me in the East Pavilion!" Ziwei City is too big, there is a long distance from Huiyou Hall to Tongming Palace, and it is usually just that, Yang Tong is now drunk and too lazy to go.

"Whoa!" The female officer saluted and left.
