Although these envoys of the Great Food Country appeared to have a hard tone and no fear, through their facial expressions and eyes, it could be seen that they were weak and worried in their hearts. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

As an envoy of a country, they can't be too weak outside, and besides, they also know how they will be treated after the matter is revealed, so after being placed under house arrest, they have long been completely psychologically prepared and waiting for the fate of being killed.

But when Li An opened his mouth to say that he was going to kill them, they were still a little scared in their hearts, so they used all kinds of calm language to cover up their inner panic, in fact, the more words they said, the calmer they became, the easier it was to expose their inner panic, and pretending to be calm could not deceive Li An.

"I really didn't expect that the people of your big food country would have such a high evaluation of this official, and this official is very happy!"

Li An said with a smile, and continued: "This official knows that you are also acting on orders, and you can't help yourself, but after all, you have done something that harms the friendship between Datang and Shiguo, so naturally you have to pay the corresponding price, otherwise, how to appease the craftsman who was killed in my Datang." ”

"We are also acting on orders, let's die!"

"When we set off, we expected this situation, but we had no better choice but to do so."

The envoy of the Great Food Country said helplessly.

"Do you think it is right or wrong for you to go to the country of stone and encourage the camel caravan of the country to sabotage, and let so many people die?"

Ang Lee asked.

"Since you're going to have your head on the ground, you might as well say everything, and you won't have a chance to say it when you get there."

An envoy of the Great Food Country pondered for a moment and said: "Don't hide it from Li Shilang, it's a little inappropriate for us to do this, but we are for the interests of the Great Food Country, we are the courtiers of the Great Food Country, and if we want to think about our motherland, we can't take care of other things." ”

"There is also a saying in Datang, called the food king's Lu bears the king's worries, we are the courtiers of the big food country, of course, we have to consider the big food country everywhere, I believe that if Li Shilang is in our position, he will make the same choice."

Another envoy of the Great Food Country said.

"Do you think that sabotaging Datang's construction of a railway in Shiguo is safeguarding the interests of Dashiguo?"

Li An smiled slightly, feeling that the other party's point of view was very wrong.

"Li Shilang thinks so, don't you?"

Li An opened his mouth and said: "This official knows that you are afraid that the forces of the Tang Dynasty will enter the countries in the river, in this way, your big food country will lose control of the countries in the river, but with the strength of our Datang, it is a matter of time before you enter the countries in the river, you can't stop it, it is better to accept the reality earlier, so as not to cause further confrontation, besides, the construction of the railway is also of great benefit to your big food country, your domestic merchants have at least tens of thousands of people in my Datang, the railway is not passable, how to quickly circulate the goods in the two places, How should you do business in the Great Food Country? ”

Several envoys of the Great Food Country glanced at each other, not knowing how to answer, they also understood the benefits that Li An said, but the court of the Great Food Country was more concerned about the continuous tribute they could get, and ignored the interests of the merchant group, and these envoys obviously represented the court of the Great Food Country and the ruling class.

"Li Shilang, if the countries in the river suddenly do not pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty, what will happen to the Tang Dynasty?"

An envoy of the Great Food Nation asked rhetorically.

Li An smiled slightly: "It's okay!" My Datang is rich in products, although the countries in the river pay tribute to Datang every year, but my Datang rewards them with more things, in general, our Datang is a loss-making business, if they don't pay tribute, our Datang will live better. ”

When the king of Shiguo heard this, he recognized it with a face, he has been paying tribute to Datang and Da Shiguo at the same time, but every time he pays tribute to Datang items, he can always get more rewards, but he doesn't get much in return for paying tribute to Da Shiguo, and even, there is no reward at all, which makes Liluo quite hurt, which is also the most fundamental reason why he is interested in Datang.

Several envoys of the Great Food Country, who were speechless by Li An's words, asked this question, exposing the greed and stinginess of their Great Food Country, the countries in the river pay tribute to them every year, but they never give back, at most reward some useless titles, and the Tang Empire is much more generous, every time they reward the countries in the river with a large number of items, more than the items that these countries pay tribute, this is the most fundamental reason why the hearts of the countries are towards the Tang Dynasty.

Of course, this is also the excellent historical tradition of the whole of China, using a large number of materials to make friendly neighbors, so that the neighbors are oriented to themselves.

If the Tang Empire becomes weak, then even if it continues to be good to these small countries, it will not be respected, but will only get a group of white-eyed wolves.

And at present, the Tang Empire is very powerful, so there is no need to worry about this situation, the surrounding countries in the face of the powerful force of the Tang Dynasty, only to choose obediently is the best choice.

"What's the matter, why don't you speak."

Seeing that several envoys of the Great Food Country no longer spoke, Li An asked with a smile.

"The dying man, there is nothing left to say."

"When we were caught, we knew that there would be a day when we should be more clever and not let us suffer too much."

Several envoys of the Great Food Country have nothing to say at all, and they are now waiting to die.

"Led by the neck to be killed, do you really want to die so much? Don't want to live a good life? ”

Li An said.

"If Li Shilang is willing to give us a chance to live, of course we are willing to live, but we are all envoys of the Great Food Country in life and death, and we will not do anything that is detrimental to the Great Food Country."

An envoy of the Great Food Country opened his mouth to speak.

"Don't worry, I won't let you betray the motherland, come, come and look at the map, and I'll teach you a good lesson."

Ang Lee took a map of the world, pointed to the location of the Great Food Country, and began a speech that amazed everyone.

It's not so much a speech, it's more brainwashing, using Ang Lee's unique knowledge of later generations, to brainwash these envoys of the Great Food Country, as well as the monarchs and ministers of the Stone Kingdom, with some charm, so that they can listen and follow Ang Lee's train of thought.

What Ang Lee described is a beautiful picture of the future, which is about the great changes that will take place in various countries after the Datang Railway leads to the western countries, and these changes are only good and not bad for all countries, under the leadership of Datang, the surrounding countries will become more and more prosperous, and the lives of the common people will become better and better, in short, as long as the Datang railway leads to where, where it will become a modern big city, and become a very rich place.

Several envoys of the Great Food Country were stunned by Li An's vision, and they all felt that what Li An said was very reasonable, the Great Food Country prevented the Tang Dynasty from building a railway in the west, and they could only hit the stone with an egg, and they had no strength to stop all this, and once the Tang Dynasty's railway entered the land in the river, it would also be of great benefit to the merchants of the Great Food Country, so why bother to confront the Tang Empire? Moreover, the strength of the Great Food Country is far inferior to that of the Tang Dynasty, and the confrontation will only put them in danger of losing the country.

Confrontation can never solve the problem, only cooperation can achieve a win-win situation, can we seek the greatest interests for the big food country, and can the big food country exist forever in the western region.

"What Li Shilang said is too good, we didn't think about it properly, we shouldn't stop Datang from building a railway in Shiguo, it's our mistake."

"Li Shilang, as long as you are willing to let us go back, we will do our best to persuade our king to abandon the idea of confrontation with Datang, and strive to rebuild the old friendship with Datang, so that the people of both countries can live a good life."

Several envoys of the Great Food Country hurriedly opened their mouths to say that they had been successfully brainwashed by Li An and were willing to do what Li An said.

Seeing that the effect of his brainwashing was reflected, Li An was very happy, if these envoys of the Great Food Country could do what he said, to persuade the king of the Great Food Country to cooperate with the Tang Empire, in this way, the Tang Dynasty could enter the land in the river without much effort, and after gaining a firm foothold, enter the more distant western countries, so as to expand the influence of the Tang Empire to farther places.

"Haha! It's great that you can think like this, this official just said that let your heads fall to the ground, it's just a joke, as long as you are willing to cooperate and persuade your king to reconcile with the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty will regard you as the closest friend, and you will receive the highest level of courtesy when you go to the Tang Dynasty in the future. ”

Ang Lee said with a smile.

"Li Shilang, don't worry, we will go all out to persuade our king, so can we leave now?"

An envoy of the Great Food Country said.

Li An nodded lightly, looked back at the king of Shiguo, and found that Luo Luo couldn't close his mouth with a smile, and it was obvious that Li An's handling result was the most satisfactory to him.

After all, Shi Guo is next to the Great Food Country, if Li An really kills these envoys of the Great Food Country, it is difficult to guarantee that the Great Food Country will not come to find trouble, although this matter was done by Li An, but the person was detained by Shi Guo, and Shi Guo can't get rid of it, and any explanation is futile and useless.

At the beginning, when Li An said that he wanted to kill these envoys of the Great Food Country, Luo Luo was taken aback, he was afraid that Shi Guo would offend the more powerful Great Food Country, and Li An has now said that he will release these Great Food Country envoys, and there is also the meaning of reconciliation with the Great Food Country, so that the Tang Dynasty and the Shi Kingdom have become a family, which is undoubtedly a great good thing for the people of the Shi Kingdom who are good at business, which will make the Shi Country in the middle take advantage of it.

"His Royal Highness seems to be in a good mood!"

Li An said.

"Haha! After listening to Li Shilang's words, this king is mouth was suddenly opened, this king felt that Li Shilang in this matter, handled it very properly, in the future, Dashi, Datang, and our Shiguo, they will all be a family, trade with each other, exchange with each other, will definitely make our days become better and better. ”

The king of Shiguo, Luo, happily replied.

"Well, what His Royal Highness the King said is that in the future, we will all be a family, but our Datang and Shiguo have long been a family, as long as the king of Dashi Country expresses goodwill, then we will all be a family."

Li An said with a smile.

The king of the Shi Kingdom, Wu Luo, laughed a few times and said, "Li Shilang, or this king will arrange people and horses to escort these envoys of the Great Food Country back, so as not to have an accident on the road." ”

Li An nodded and said: "His Royal Highness the King is very thoughtful, and he should indeed send soldiers and horses to escort him, after all, their conspiracy has killed many people, and I am afraid that many people want their lives!" ”

"Okay, Li Shilang chatted with a few envoys first, and this king went to arrange carriages and horses and guards."

She nodded respectfully, and turned to prepare her horses and guards.

Li Ang continued to chat with several envoys of the Great Food Country, and the topics of conversation were all about the future strategic cooperation between Datang and the Great Food Country, and the railway will lead to the Great Food Country.

When it came to the great changes that would take place in the Great Food Country in the future, several envoys of the Great Food Country were very excited, and praised Ang Lee many times for being a talent and the most important friend of the Great Food Country, and they were also willing to make friends with Ang Lee.

Soon the guards and horses and vehicles of the stone country arrived, in order to send these envoys of the Great Food Country back to China safely, the king of the stone country prepared a fully enclosed two cars and three hundred guards, these two cars were also rewarded by the Tang Dynasty to the king of the stone country, in order not to have an accident, Luo Luo was willing to lend his favorite car to the envoys of the Great Food Country, which shows that he attaches great importance to the safety of the envoys of the Great Food Country.

The car was invented by Li An, and the car glass was even more so that the car given to the king of Shiguo was equipped with anti-peeking glass, that is, the people in the car could clearly see the situation outside the car, but the people outside the car could not see the situation inside the car at all, that is, the unidirectional transparent glass, which was very common glass in later generations, and it was relatively scarce in the era of the Tang Dynasty, so it was still more expensive.

Yuluo asked the envoy of the Great Food Country to return to the country in his own car, and no one would suspect it along the way, after all, no one could see the situation inside the car, so naturally he didn't know that it was the envoy of the Great Food Country sitting in the car.

The environment of Talas City in Shiguo is still very good, at least Li An likes this place very much, and in Shiguo's King Yuluo, many beautiful Shiguo women are arranged to serve him, and Li An's feeling is even more wonderful, and he doesn't want to go back at all.

Besides, Li An stayed in Talas City, and he had to wait for the news from the direction of the Great Food Country, he wanted to see what kind of reaction the King of the Great Food Country would have to deal with his suggestions, and see if the King of the Great Food Country was a smart person who knew the current affairs.
