Chapter 1148: Great Qin Envoy

"When Chang~~" As the copper spearhead fell to the ground paved with stone slabs, everyone's eyes in the palace bulged out slightly.

The palace instantly became very quiet, and after a while, a young nobleman, Huo Ran, stood up and strode in front of the foreign minister, took the dagger and looked at it, and then said with an ugly face: "Agato, this can't be Daqin's toy weapon, it can cut off our strongest spear, and there is no damage on it, this makes no sense!" ”

"Yes, Agato, your joke is not funny at all, we can believe that your weapon is indeed from Great Qin, but it does not mean that each of them can afford this weapon, our spear is already the sharpest and hardest weapon in the world, Egypt and Rome are also comparable to us at most, although we don't know about Great Qin, we have never heard of them before, if they have such a sharp and strong weapon, why don't they come and conquer us!" A minister next to him shook his head and said.

"I don't know why Daqin didn't come to conquer us, but this is indeed their least valuable weapon, because they have a commercial decree that prohibits weapons longer than one foot from being exported abroad, and even they have sharper weapons and bows, but merchants can't buy them, this weapon was given to me by a merchant from Dawan half a month ago, and he got this weapon from a small country named Shule on the east side of Snow Mountain, and it is said that the Shule merchant gave him from a merchant from Daqin, The reason for sending him was because he had purchased goods worth no more than ten gold coins from the Great Qin merchants......"

The foreign minister chopped the dagger in his hand on the low table in front of him, and the sharp blade directly sank into the thick wood more than an inch deep, and the snow blade was also engraved with five small seals of 'Xianyang Machinery Factory', but no one knew anyone in Anxi.

"We don't know anything about Great Qin at the moment, but only a fool would want to be an enemy of them, stirrups and saddles you have seen, it is definitely the best equipment for killing on the battlefield, porcelain you have seen, this is the most beautiful item in the world, and my weapon, the entire empire can't come up with another weapon that can be sharper than it at the moment, and our west, there are Seleucus and Egypt, and further west there are Carthage and Rome, and now Rome has conquered the whole of Greece, if we go to provoke the unknown and powerful Great Qin, I don't know what the consequences will be, but if we lose or fall into a stalemate, Seleucus and Egypt will inevitably take advantage of the situation to attack us, and if we are enemies on both sides, we may be doomed to rest......"

The Foreign Minister shrugged and sat down, looking at Emperor Antiochus III, "Your Majesty, no matter how tempting porcelain is, as your trusted minister, I still want to remind you not to do things that you are not sure of, as you just said, we are located between the East and the West, and developing commerce is the best way, and war is our greatest weakness, and the last possibility of provoking Great Qin is that you may face escape and defeat again." ”

The palace was very quiet, and many ministers and nobles who had just instigated and approved of the emperor's attack on Great Qin were silent, and Antiochus III was also slightly depressed and picked up the porcelain bowl and began to appreciate it slowly.

"Report~~" A palace guard hurriedly strode in.

"What's the matter?" The administrative officer shouted and asked.

"Your Majesty, a group of people have come outside, claiming to be envoys from Daqin, tens of thousands of miles away, and want to meet Your Majesty!"

"Bang Dang~"

Antiochus III's hand shook, and the fine porcelain bowl fell onto the desk and broke a gap.

And the nobles and ministers who sat in the palace to participate in this porcelain appreciation party were all like being punched, and they were all at a loss.

I just talked about Daqin, but it turned out that Daqin's envoy suddenly came.

"Hurry up and invite the messenger of Great Qin to come in, wait a minute, I will personally go to meet you!" Antiochus III didn't have time to feel sorry for the missing porcelain bowl, so he quickly stood up and ordered.

To be honest, the name Daqin is not unfamiliar to the rest of the people at the moment, and the name Daqin has been heard the most by businessmen who come and go to the East in the past year, but no one has ever seen what the people of Daqin look like.

Could it be that like those myths and legends of poison, there will be three heads, six arms and even a strange body?

Apameia, now the capital of the Sabbath Empire, originally the earliest capital of Sabbath was in the city of Nisa in the Parthian province, closer to the east, as Sabbath continued to expand westward, the capital was also moved to Apameia, originally Antiochus III wanted to move the capital to Ctesiphon, but twice in a row did not just pass the Seleucid Empire, so he had to temporarily rest and take a breath.

And it was at the stall of taking a breath that a mysterious Great Qin Empire suddenly appeared in the east, which distracted his attention a lot.

The city of Apamea, a country with an arid semi-desert climate, welcomed an emissary from the far east, who was standing in front of the palace on horseback with a group of men.

This group of people have a variety of appearances and costumes, among which more than 100 soldiers wearing uniform armor and riding on horses are particularly eye-catching, mainly because the black helmet and black armor are too exquisite and uniform, and the image of riding on the horse is neat and neat, and the majestic image makes many people gather around to watch and point at them from a distance.

The Sabbatarians were well-informed, but they had never seen a soldier in such a costumed and imposing manner.

And surrounded by this group of people, in the center are several men wearing Daqin official robes, one of them looks less than thirty years of young men, obviously the leader of this group of people, a jade crown in gorgeous clothes, a delicate long sword hanging from his waist, and the soldiers around him are also holding several black dragon flags, fluttering and swaying in the dry and cold wind, and a big small seal 'Qin' is clearly visible on it.

"Tsk, this palace is also stingy!" Li Shun rode on his horse and watched the palace in front of him, and a slightly disappointed and disdainful voice came out of his mouth.

After the spring of the previous year, he set off in Xianyang under the emperor's order, in addition to going to the Western Regions to pacify many vassal states, he also had a great mission, that is, to go over the cold green mountains to envoy Dawan and the Great Xia countries, publicize the edict of the Great Qin Emperor and understand the customs and customs of the Western countries, so as to accumulate enough information for the westward expansion of the Great Qin, and he went through two years before and after this time, all the way to the mountains and rivers for tens of thousands of miles, that is, to hear the people of Dawan and Great Xia say that the most powerful country in the West is the Resting Empire in front of him.

However, he had already begun to be disappointed before he reached the capital of the Rest Empire, and now he was even more disappointed in the capital.

Not to mention that this ghost place has a dry climate and semi-arid desert everywhere, and the buildings are all that kind of low sand and soil structure, compared with Xianyang, which has blue bricks, thick tiles, and high walls and cornices, this capital is simply not as good as a county town in Daqin, not to mention that there is no city wall, not even a few decent trees, and all the people look like they are dug out of the sand, with a big beard and a strange hat, and sand falling down from their bodies when they walk, but in order to maintain the majesty and dignity of the Great Qin Empire, Before they came to the palace, they had changed into the armor and clothes that they had been reluctant to wear in a hotel where merchants often lived, and they also displayed the banners of Great Qin and his envoys to show their respect for the Emperor of the Sabbatarian Empire, and of course, to show off.

And with Li Shun, there are also some merchants from the Western Regions and Dawan Daxia who have been going to and from Western countries for many years, one is to let them lead the way on the way, and the other is to be a translator.

From the beginning of leaving Daqin, all the way through the mountains and rivers to get here, the translator is changed one after another, a few translators arranged by the Pawn Bureau have been useless since they left the Western Regions, but it is not without benefits to bring them, these people learn foreign languages very quickly, and there is no problem with some simple communication on weekdays, from Dawan to here, even Li Shun has begun to be able to slowly understand some messy local language, and even be able to communicate a few words with the locals.

"This palace is indeed stingy, but it is still quite good compared to the palaces of the Western Regions and even Great Xia, at least it is more magnificent than our county government of Great Qin!" An official from the Pawn Office next to him also had a look of disdain on his face.

"Master Li, you said this Antiaozi...... Well, won't King Antioch be waiting to see us? It's not easy for us to come tens of thousands of miles! Another official whispered.

"Who knows? If you don't wait to see it, you won't see it, when you get here, the mission of our mission is basically completed, I heard Hou Ye say that there are still Rome, Greece and Egypt in the West, but it is estimated that it will not be able to run in two or three years! Li Shun shook his head indifferently.

"I don't know the long way if I don't go out, and I never know that I'm short-sighted if I don't go out, I used to think that Daqin was already the whole world, but I didn't expect that there was the Western Regions thousands of miles away, and after the Western Regions, there was Dawan Daxia, and there were body poisons and rest in the past two or three thousand miles, and then there were Greece and Rome in the past ten thousand miles...... Qinghe Hou is really a disciple of the gods, and he can know thousands of things in the world without going out! ”

"However, if it weren't for the prophet of Qinghe Houwei, even if I waited for another two years, I might not be able to find here, it would not be easy!"

"There are people outside the sky, after all, it is not wrong, I heard the Hou Ye say, a hundred years ago, from the Great Xia to the rest and then to the west, it was ruled by an empire called Macedonia, and the territory was several times that of my Great Qin, so although these places don't look good, but you still don't want to be too public, after all, here I am the whip of the Great Qin, and no one can save us if something happens, and when I see the king who rests in peace, try to have sufficient etiquette, and speak well if I can talk well!" Li Shun admonished.

"Master Li, what if this Antiochus doesn't speak well?" An official asked worriedly.

"If you don't talk well, go back quickly, don't make trouble!" Li Shun frowned slightly.

"What if you don't let us go back?"

"How can we be, we are envoys, not their enemies...... Well, remember to prepare the Taiyi Divine Thunder ......" Although Li Shun said so, he couldn't help but remind a group of subordinates to prepare a big killing weapon, in case this Antioch Emperor does not play his cards according to common sense, he has to make a bar, then he can only let them taste the power of Taiyi Divine Thunder, but I don't know if the spell of Qinghe Hou can work if it is tens of thousands of miles away from Daqin.

"Yes, we will obey Master Li's orders!" A group of officials all surrendered together.
