Chapter 212: The Balehar Dynasty and the Seljuk Empire

After a simple greeting, Lu Zifei clapped his hands, and the two soldiers stepped forward with an object, in fact, Lu Zifei wanted Aishwarya Lei to lift the red cloth on it by himself, but people didn't seem to mean that, he made a gesture of invitation to Akbar.

Akbar is not afraid of the Song people harming himself on his own territory, and there are so many guards around him, he pulled it gently, the sun shines on the mirror and stimulates his eyes, close his eyes, open his eyes, this process is only a few seconds, but the scene in front of him makes him think that Brahma has come to the world.

Aishwarya got down from the white elephant's seat, wrapped in a black sari, all she could see was those exotic eyes, she walked to the mirror and involuntarily touched the figure in the mirror with her hand, is this me?

"Your Highness, how can you show your true face in front of outsiders, the high priest will blame if he knows about it."

Aishwarya said intoxicatedly: "They are distinguished guests, they don't know my identity, and no one knows if you don't say it." ”

Akbar said, "It doesn't matter if they are merchants or emissaries, but you are the high priest of the next dynasty. ”

"It's too early to say that, can you help me ask them if they're willing to trade this mirror? I love it. ”

Lu Zifei said: "This mirror is a gift from me to Your Highness, we came with an attitude of peaceful coexistence, and we want to establish friendly relations with the Pala Dynasty and the Balear Dynasty. ”

Akbar said: "We would also like to do good business with your country, but you know that this requires the consent of our King Majesty. ”

"This is our country's first large-scale foreign trade activity, in order to respect the sovereignty of your country, our soldiers will not go ashore, these ships of goods are rare and high-quality goods, can we trade here fairly and justly?"

Akbar smiled and said: "The merchants of your country also often come here, they are under our protection in the Pala Dynasty, your soldiers do not go ashore, I am very happy with your approach, trading is very free here, you don't have to worry about being deceived, because the people of this land are full of kindness." ”

Lie to the devil about this! I'm a traverser, except for the Peacock King period when India achieved great unification, the rest of the time it was its own government, there were many big and small countries, let alone kindness, people who died in this land could build a country.

"Thank you very much, I think there are things in these goods that the High Priest likes."

Aishwarya in front of the mirror suddenly said, "Shall I go up to your ship and take a look?" ”

Lu Zifei said gentlemanly: "Of course, there is no problem. ”

When Aishwarya passed by Han Jiang, he suddenly smelled a tempting fragrance, Cao Feng sniffed with his nose like a puppy, and Lu Zifei kicked him in the back, all of them were dirt buns that had never seen the world.

Aishwarya also noticed this Cao Feng's actions, the good thing is that she has a veil on her face, no one can see her blushing face, Tengbo whispered: "The holy women of the Brahmins bath every day with spices to show cleansing, so they all have fragrance on their bodies, this highness is where I have heard of it before, and she is an unattainable figure for my identity." ”

Lu Zifei said: "What's noble, I was unattainable to you before you didn't know me, and now you talk to me every day and don't see where you are noble, you eat the same as what I eat, there is no special treatment, you say that you are noble." ”

Teng Bo was speechless, and Lu Zifei continued: "The nobility of people is reflected in the soul, not those so-called messy things, when you look down on yourself, no one can make you noble." ”

The words are very light, not deafening to say, and not sonorous and powerful, but it makes people feel that it is the feeling of empowerment, and it makes you agree with it from the bottom of your heart.

Cao Feng said: "Then why is there a distinction between high and low in this world? ”

"That's people's self-esteem, the emperor deals with official documents, picks up dung, the nature of things is work, if you think you are the same as him, but the type of work is different, then you are on the same level as him,

You yourself are humble in your heart, and you feel that people are high emperors, so I took out a lot of dung, and there was the current distinction between high and low, and then many superiors felt that I was noble, so you should be low, and then what?

Many people's servility makes them give up on themselves, only self-reliant people have entered the noble ranks, princes and princes will have a kind of Xiangning, their own efforts are important, reincarnation is also a technical work, like the reincarnation technology of Her Royal Highness the princess, we don't have it. ”

Aishwarya looked at the row of freshly made octagonal crossbows and the arrows the thickness of the baby's arm, and was he fascinated by the fact that they were going to shoot Brahma? The Balehar Dynasty has a large number of these weapons that are afraid of the Seljuks, how many people can make them come and go, and what is even more powerful is that they actually loaded this terrible weapon on the ship, and the outbreak of war at sea is really unimaginable.

Lu Zifei accompanied her to see all the places on the ship, the guards around Aishwarya isolated him and didn't let him get too close, Aishwarya separated the guards and looked directly at Lu Zifei, and asked him: "Does the prince know anything about the Balehar Dynasty?" ”

Lu Zifei said with a smile: "Your country has not had much contact with the Great Song Dynasty in the past, and I don't know much, among the people I admire, there is one who is your Brahmin, and it is also a big influence in your heart." ”

Aishwarya asked curiously, "Who is Childe talking about?" ”

"Is His Royal Highness familiar with the third generation of the Mauryan Monarch, Ashoka?"

Aishwarya said in surprise: "Do the people of the East know about the deeds of Ashoka? You're right, he's my biggest hero, and some people slander him as a butcher, but I don't think he's doing things that are not only good for the Balihar dynasty, but also for the neighboring countries. The second half of his life is enough to make up for the mistakes he made in the first half of his life. ”

Lu Zifei said: "I can't comment on Ashoka himself, but his contribution to Buddhism is immeasurable, and so is your Brahmanism, and I just found a record about him in the classics of Buddhism." He was a great man, and his position in the hearts of Balehar was as important as that of the First Emperor in the hearts of the Han Chinese. ”

"As a Rajput, I am honored to know Ashoka and he is our pride."

"Your Highness, may I ask how many dynasties there are in the Rachakput tribe now? As far as I know, there were twelve dynasties at the most. ”

Aishwarya said, "There are three more, the Para dynasty you see, the Balehar dynasty where I live, and the last one is the Pratihara dynasty in the south, which is now much more peaceful than the time of the Twelve Kings that Gongzi said. ”

Lu Zifei said: "Is the peace that Her Royal Highness the Princess said true? The Seljuks of the north are already on the verge of Kanauje! The princess was a little self-defeating. ”

Aishwarya covered her mouth and said, "How can you know so clearly, the people at the base of the war with the Seljuks know the specific situation, are you a spy sent by the Seljuks?" ”

Looking at the ill-intentioned eyes of the soldiers on the other side, Lu Zifei said: "Her Royal Highness the princess's imagination is too rich, it is still difficult for the Seljuks to come to Pala from the sea, these situations were inquired by the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty when they were doing business with the Seljuks, we are very far away from the Seljuks, and their ancestors were driven away by our ancestors." ”

The ancestors of the Seljuks are the Eastern Turks, that is, the Turks who were defeated by Li Jing in history, they can't live in the north, so they have been migrating westward, and strong force has always been their guarantee, fighting with Muslims, fighting with Persia, this will be with the Ballihar Dynasty again, in the words of the Pingtou brother, it is either on the way to fight or fight again.

"Your ancestors are so powerful, the Seljuk cavalry is as fierce as the Mamluk cavalry of the caliphate, our army is no match for them, can you tell me how your ancestors defeated them?"

Lu Zifei said: "They are nomads, if you want to defeat them, you need cavalry, because only cavalry can deal with cavalry, the mobility of infantry is too poor, our ancestors formed a terrifying cavalry, led by an invincible commander to defeat them in one go." ”

Aishwarya said, "Then we can form a cavalry, but Balihar does not have so many horses, and my father and the Kshatriya elders have gray hair, do you sell those weapons on your ship?" ”

"Don't sell it, these weapons are strategic materials outside and at home, whether they are for sale or not, and the things on those small ships can be sold, don't you want to take a look?"

"I'm tired today, so I'll take a look tomorrow when you move your things to shore! Are your weapons really not for sale? We brahmins are willing to offer a price that is satisfactory to your heart. ”

Lu Zifei smiled bitterly: "Even if I sell these weapons to you, I can't change the situation of the battle, if there are a large number, it will be useful, the secret recipe they make is known to His Majesty the Emperor alone, you can't imitate it if you want to, find problems from yourself, and learn more from the enemy, this is what you should do." ”

Aishwarya left in a complicated mood, she originally came out to relax, Lu Zifei's words made her a little hope disappeared again, the master of Ser was too brave, the Balehar dynasty temporarily stopped their attack with numbers, her father said that maintaining the status quo to welcome Balehar would be perish, and she, the princess who was looked up to, could do it for a few days.

The Balehar Dynasty was banned by the Lord of Serre Empire in history, how could a group of noble lords sitting in the sky fight people who were on the verge of life and death all day long, the reasons for the change of dynasty were basically the same, internal decay, external war.

Cao Feng asked, "Why don't you sell them weapons, I'm not very keen on this kind of thing." ”

Lu Zifei asked rhetorically: "Sell them to make them unified?" ”
