If you stay in the army for a long time, you will inevitably get some bad habits, such as bad temper.

In the past, when he was in Chang'an, Li Su's personality has always been gentle and elegant, as humble as a gentleman, speaking and acting politely, except for the occasional cheapness, there are really no other shortcomings.

But when he encountered this group of Japanese people in front of him, Li Su really couldn't keep calm, and he killed for no reason.

No way, the memory of his previous life has had too deep an impact on him, Li Su is a person from his previous life, and he knows how terrible it is for this seemingly humble and polite country to tear off its disguise and reveal its true face after more than a thousand years.

This kind of memory is deeply rooted in his bones since he was a child, and it is impossible to change it, so after Li Su knew that the group of people in front of him were Japanese people, he subconsciously reacted, and the reaction was very simple and rude, "Throw it into the woods to feed the wolves".

The subordinates next to him didn't expect Li Su's reaction to be so intense, and they all looked at him in a daze when they heard the words.

Fang Lao Wu reacted quickly, and after a short period of distraction, he immediately took out the rope from the blanket next to the saddle and walked towards the monk named Dao Zhao.

The rest of the parts also came back to their senses at this time, no matter what the grandfather thought, since he gave the order, he just did it.

When a group of tribesmen came up with ropes and surrounded them with bad intentions, the monk Daozhao's face changed and his expression was very angry.

"Wait! This nobleman, dare to ask me where I have offended you? Look at the armor of you and your army, it should be from the Tang Kingdom, the Tang Kingdom is the country I yearn for and revere the most, why don't you be unreasonable and tie me up when you meet? ”

Li Su rode on his horse and said lazily: "Because I suspect that you are spies, and you are spies that Baekje has planted into my Tang Dynasty king's division......"

Dozhao said angrily: "If we are spies, will we be hunted down and killed by the people of Baekje Kingdom?" ”

Li Su sighed: "It's all a routine, I can also understand that this is a bitter trick, right?" ”

"That's not right! We are really Yamato people, I, I have an official certificate issued by an official of Yamato to as proof! As he spoke, Dao Zhao put his hand into his arms, took out a roll of white silk and handed it to Li Su.

Li Su took it and glanced up and down, and found that the words on it were actually Chinese characters, and it was indeed written that Daozhao and his party were monks from the Japanese Kingdom who went to the Tang Dynasty to study, and the final name was written "Su I entered the deer".

"What does this 'Su I into the deer' mean?" Li Su couldn't help but ask curiously.

Michiaki explained, "'Soga Irika' is a personal name, and he is the minister of my Yamato Kingdom, and he is currently acting as regent. ”

Li Su nodded, and said reluctantly: "Oh, it seems that you are really from the Japanese country, it turns out that I misunderstood......"

Dao Zhao's lips twitched a few times, as if he wanted to correct Li Su's statement, it was "Yamato" instead of "Wa Guo", but when he thought of the noble man in front of him who had just ordered him to throw himself into the woods to feed the wolf without saying a word, he was obviously a violent temper, and after thinking about it, Dao Zhao still didn't dare to correct him after all, so he endured it.

As the saying goes, a good man doesn't suffer immediate losses, and of course monks don't suffer immediate losses.

Immediately, Li Su asked curiously: "It's just that the name Su I Jinlu sounds strange, you said that he is the minister of your Wa Kingdom, what position is he in?" ”

Dao Zhao was stunned and said, "He is the minister." ”

Li Su was also stunned: "The minister should also have an official name, Shangshu, Shilang or something, don't you understand?" ”

Dao Zhao was so anxious that he stomped his feet: "His official name is 'Minister'!" ”

"Huh? The official name of your Wa Kingdom is so straightforward......" Li Su was shocked.

Michiaki smiled bitterly: "'Minister' is the official name of our Yamato Kingdom, and it is the highest official name. ”

Li Su frowned again: "My Tang Dynasty is thousands of miles away, all nations are subdued, and His Majesty the Emperor does not call himself 'Emperor', you small island country, how can you be qualified to call yourself 'Emperor', who gave you courage and self-confidence?" ”

Dao Zhao was stunned, he found that the noble man in front of him seemed to be very unfriendly to them, and his words were often targeted, and he used words to mock and ridicule, Dao Zhao really couldn't figure out where he offended him, everyone was just meeting for the first time, I owe you money or eat your meat buns?

However, under the low eaves, he had to bow his head, and the monk was the most knowledgeable about current affairs, and in the face of this short-tempered nobleman, even if he stepped on his face, he endured it.

Dao Zhao smiled bitterly: "Noble Mingjian, I am just a monk, I don't ask about the world, why is the emperor called the emperor, I really don't know, why do you bother a monk with a nobleman......"

Li Su put away his hostile attitude and rubbed his cheeks vigorously.

Well, it's really my own fault, the hostility towards the Wa Kingdom in the previous life should not be used in this life, the person in front of me is just an honest monk, and it would be a bit too much to embarrass him.

"Okay, don't embarrass you, since you're not a spy of Baekje, I'll believe you......" Li Su paused, and suddenly said: "By the way, thank me quickly." ”

"Huh?" Dao Zhao was stunned.

"Just now I ordered the killing of the Baekje cavalry and saved your lives, and I don't think you can come up with any money based on your appearance, so it's not too much to say a few words of thanks, right?"

Dao Zhao was suddenly, and hurriedly bowed down and saluted: "Thank you for saving me, so that I will not wait for a catastrophe, and today I will recite Buddhist scriptures for your nobles, and pray for your blessings and longevity in front of the Buddha." ”

Li Su glanced him up and down, and saw that the monk was dressed in rags, the monk's clothes were tattered and leaking everywhere, and he was carrying a bamboo basket on his back, which contained various Buddhist scriptures and books, Li Su finally despaired.

It seems that there is really no oil and water to squeeze out, and it is not good to travel today, not only saving a group of old enemies after a thousand years, but also doing a loss-making business, which is really a very dark day.

After thinking about it, Li Su still felt unwilling, I saved your life, I should give something, right? Or...... What do you want me to do for free?

With his left hand stretched out in front of Dao Zhao, Li Su smiled and said, "Will the monk approve the eight characters?" Will you watch the passing year? Will it be considered a good luck for the heirs of marriage and career? …… Will it be consecrated? ”

Dao Zhao was stunned: "............"

Seeing his stunned appearance, Li Su said dissatisfiedly: "With so much business, you should be more or less the same, right?" ”

Dao Zhao shook his head dumbly, his throat moved, and he swallowed his saliva with difficulty.

Li Su withdrew his hand and sighed in disappointment: "What happened to the monks this year?" Like that Xuanzang, I don't know anything, even if you play a little trick of boiling oil to make copper coins, I can pretend to worship you for a while......"

Daozhao hung his head and gritted his teeth.

I can't afford to provoke it, I can't bear it!

*******************************************************

Coincidentally, the end point of Daozhao and his party is also Tang Chang'an.

For the sake of this group of monks being very honest, Li Su had to agree to take them with him. Although Li Su's mouth is a little poisonous on weekdays, he is still very kind, at least he didn't order them to be chopped up and fed to the wolves in this wilderness.

The army continued to move south, and Li Su was bored along the way, and finally had a new chat partner, and Li Su naturally would not let him go.

After chatting for a long time, Li Su realized that the group of monks in Daozhao was not only a monk from the temple, but also had an official identity, and they had a very loud name, called "Sending Tang Envoys".

On the way, Dao Zhao respectfully asked Li Su's name and official position, this kind of question suitable for pretending naturally did not need Li Su to answer in person, Fang Lao Wu next to him jumped out at the right time, and slowly said Li Su's name and official title with a proud face, and then Li Su put on a posture of accepting worship.

Dao Zhao suddenly looked up at the mountain, saluted again with a look of reverence, and then ...... His expression immediately returned to composure.

Li Su felt that this monk probably did not understand his official position and title, just as he did not understand why the biggest minister of the Japanese kingdom had his official name "minister", and the two cultures had a generational gap. But fortunately, there is no generation gap in chatting.

It is also very logical to say, it must be that Dao Zhao studied the Guanzhong dialect of the Tang Dynasty when he was in the Wa Kingdom, after all, the envoy sent to the Tang Dynasty was a student of the Tang Dynasty, if a foreign student can't even speak Guanzhong, what else can he study? Skipping school all day to play games in an Internet café?

As for what the Tang envoys did, it can be understood that they were the Tang Dynasty's version of overseas students, and the Japanese court specially sent them to the Tang Dynasty to learn advanced cultural and political experience, and after completing their studies, they brought the knowledge back to the Tang Dynasty, and the Japanese State then taught this knowledge to its subjects and used it in life and work.

And the group of monks of Daozhao not only had to learn the cultural knowledge of the sages of the Central Plains, but also the Buddhist scriptures of the Tang Dynasty. These monks have a name in the history books, called "learned monks".

So, the question is, during the period when these international students learn the cultural knowledge of Datang, is it not giving, learning, and paying! And after learning knowledge, they don't, give, edition, right, fee, of!

Not only that, Datang also arranged for them to stay, eat, and tour around, and generously lent them any books they wanted to read.

Why is it so generous? Because the Tang Dynasty has the grandeur of the kingdom, and because the monarchs and ministers have a good face, they are embarrassed to ask for money, after all, the country is too poor.

However, when it comes to asking for money, Li Su never seems to be embarrassed.

"You sent Tang envoys to learn our Datang things, don't you pay tuition?" Li Su looked at him in surprise.

Dao Zhao was stunned for a moment, and said expectantly: "Uh, it seems to be ...... His Majesty the Heavenly Khan of your country agreed to send Tang envoys over, but did not mention the matter of tuition fees. ”

Li Su sighed: "Isn't this okay?" You are cheating, our Tang Dynasty teachers have to charge tuition fees for teaching students, this is a glorious tradition, and this tradition began at the time of Confucius, "Analects" has been mentioned, 'self-restraint above, I have not tasted no teaching', you see, our Confucian sages will charge ten pieces of jerky as tuition fees if they want to teach, you ...... Is it jerky with meat? ”

"Uh, no." Daozhao wiped his sweat.

"I didn't bring jerky, I'm afraid I didn't bring any money or anything, right?"

"Well, we're hard monks......"

Seeing that Dao Zhao was about to be driven crazy, Li Su decided to let him go very kindly.

"Okay, let's change the subject......"

Dao Zhao looked at him gratefully.

Li Su thought for a moment and said, "Why did that group of Baekje cavalry chase and kill you just now?" …… Are they trying to rob you of your jerky? ”

Daozhao: "............"

Suddenly feeling so tired, suddenly feeling that being chased and killed is actually quite good, at least it is much better than chatting with the noble person in front of you.

…………

After chatting for a long time, Li Su finally understood the reason why Daozhao was hunted down and killed by the Baekje people.

It is also the bad luck of Dao Zhao's party. The envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty have always been a lot of people, the first time the Tang envoys were sent in the fourth year of Zhenguan, led by a person named Inoushang Mita Yun, which was the first batch of Tang envoys sent after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the number of about nearly 100 people, this time is the second time, led by a person named Ji Shi Changdan, this time the number has increased, the number of Tang envoys has increased in total, the number of people is many, and it is inconvenient to travel, so more than 100 people are divided into two boats, set off separately, Ji Shi Chang Dan leads a group, and the monk of Daozhao leads another group.

However, there are unforeseen storms and clouds in the sky, and there are more unforeseen storms on the sea, and the two ships encountered wind and waves after leaving the port from the Wa Kingdom, and lost contact with each other, and the boat that Daozhao was riding was completely lost in the wind and waves, and after some ups and downs on the sea, the world whirled, and when the wind and waves stopped, everyone came back to their senses, only to find that they were taken by the wind and waves to the northern part of the Liaodong Peninsula, that is, the coastline of the Silla Kingdom.

At this time, after the ship was abused by the wind and waves, it was already dilapidated, and it was about to fall apart, everyone hurriedly went ashore on the Silla coastline, and after counting the number of people, it was found that there were only more than 30 people left, and Daozhao couldn't help but be grieved, so after doing a super ritual for the deceased on the seaside, he led more than 30 people who survived to walk into the territory of Silla. He led more than 30 people across the entire Liaodong Peninsula in a daze, and for some reason walked from Silla to Baekje.

As we all know, Silla and Baekje are enemies who are not enemies of each other, and before Dozhao and others entered Baekje, the defenders on the border had already closely watched their movements, and found that this group of people had openly swaggered over from the enemy country without knowing whether they were alive or dead, and they refused to even cover up their whereabouts, so the Baekje defenders naturally did not have to be polite to them, so they stepped forward to intercept them, and no matter how the monk Dozhao explained and pleaded, the Baekje defenders did not hear about them, and directly regarded them as enemy spies and imprisoned them in the camp.

Although Daozhao is a monk, he is not stupid, and it is estimated that the end will not be good, so he led everyone to escape from prison in the middle of the night, and stole the war horses of the Baekje camp, and ran out quickly.

The final result was what Li Su saw with his own eyes, the Baekje defenders found out that they had escaped from prison, so they chased after them, chasing them all the way and shooting arrows and spears, and Daozhao and the others ran all the way in panic, until when they met Li Su's army, the group was only about 20 people left.

After listening to the story, Li Su sighed with a sigh on his face.

"The master suffered, and I was in awe of paying such a price for studying...... Li Su sighed: "In my memory, I was also drawn all the way to the school by my father to study, and I also paid a great price back then, the difference is that I didn't want to go to school......"

Dao Zhao said with a gloomy expression: "The monks don't speak, in fact, since the time the ship encountered wind and waves, I didn't want to study, I wanted to go home, I wanted the temple, and I wanted the abbot to preside over it...... It's a pity that I couldn't run away at that time, and then I somehow arrived in Silla, and after I went ashore, I still wanted to go back to Yamato country, but unfortunately we didn't have money at that time, and I couldn't tell the direction, and finally broke into Baekje country in a daze, and when I was hunted down, I still desperately wanted to go back to Yamato, but at that time, saving my life was the most important thing, until I met you, a nobleman, ......"

Li Su smiled and said, "So, keep the clouds open and see the moon, right?" If you don't experience wind and rain, how can you see a rainbow, right? ”

Dozhao became more and more gloomy: "No, I want to return to China even more, because you are more unfriendly than the defenders of Baekje......"

Li Su glanced at him.

If I knew that I wouldn't save them, not only was I not grateful, but I also said that I was not friendly, and it was really unfriendly to tie you up and feed the wolves......

…………

Speeding up all the way, Li Su caught up with Li Ji's Chinese army.

After seeing Li Ji, Daozhao and his entourage hurriedly stepped forward to salute Li Ji, his attitude was respectful, and he was a hundred times more attentive than when he saw Li Su. Li Su was so angry that his teeth itched, just because he had a big beard more than himself, he thought he was taller than his official lord, so you were condescending?

Hey, but that's true.

The team continued to move forward, and Dao Zhao and the others couldn't help but be stunned when they saw the cavalry of the Tang Army with their military appearance neat and banners waving all over the sky, invisibly exuding a terrifying majesty.

"This ...... This is the world-famous Tang Dynasty King? Dao Zhao opened his eyes and ate authentically.

Li Su didn't bother to take care of him, and rode to the front alone.

Li Jixing was very comfortable being worshiped by Dao Zhao just now, and he was the envoy to the Tang Dynasty, so he said with a smile: "It's just a partial division, and the main Chinese army is returning to Chang'an with His Majesty, hehe, let the envoy smile." ”

Daozhao's cheeks twitched a few times.

With such a mighty and majestic elite division, presumably the army of the Wa Kingdom has descended from the heavens like a god, see it? How can he be worthy of a smile?

With a sigh of admiration, Dao Zhao admired the appearance of the army for a long time, and then came back to his senses, looked at Li Ji and said: "Before I set off for the Wa Kingdom, I heard that His Majesty the Heavenly Khan of your country led 300,000 troops to the east to conquer Goguryeo. ”

Li Ji's face sank, and when he saw Dao Zhao's dazed and ignorant face, as if he really didn't know, Li Ji's face relaxed.

"Uh, the battle situation, of course it's a big victory......" Li Ji's face did not change and put gold on Datang's face, and then snorted, and said: "My Tang Dynasty is invincible in the world, and naturally beat the Goguryeo thieves to the ground, and the thieves fled from the wind at night, and the Wang Shi marched all the way, and finally because the army lacked food, uh, he had to temporarily return to the court, leaving only our partial division to attack and harass guerrillas in Goguryeo......"

Dao Zhao suddenly showed admiration: "The lone army went deep behind the enemy, and was willing to take risks to serve his family and country, and the Tang Dynasty is really a good man!" ”

Li Ji laughed, very useful.

Pointing ahead, Daozhao said suspiciously: "The front should be in the territory of Silla Kingdom, why did the general lead the army to another country?" ”

Li Ji stroked his beard reservedly and said with a smile: "Oh, the day before yesterday, we broke through Pyongyang, the capital of Goguryeo, and left after entering the city to wreak havoc. ”

Li Ji said plainly, but Dao Zhao was extremely shocked, and his body trembled.

"Your army...... Conquered the city of Pyongyang? ”

"Yes."

Dao Zhaoyuan opened his eyes and gasped: "20,000 horses, actually broke Pyongyang, the invincible name of the Tang Army, and it is really famous!" ”

Li Ji laughed, raised his horsewhip and pointed at Li Su in front of him, and said: "The idea of waiting for us to fight for thousands of miles, contain Quangai Suwen's army, and break Pyongyang City is from this son's plan, young hero, amazing!" ”

Dao Zhao was shocked again, and his eyes were deeply fixed on Li Su's back in front of him.
