Iga Yun is the son of the prime minister of Toei Kingdom, born in Heijokyo, and is 27 years old this year.

For as long as he can remember, Iga Yun has belonged to the Venerable People, and he has always been proud of his identity, but it was not until he went to the Yutang Empire that he realized that he was a frog at the bottom of a well.

When the monsoon came in February, Iga Yun boarded a ship and set off from the Eastern Wing Kingdom to the Yutang Empire, and this time the envoy, his father and the emperor repeatedly explained that the task must be completed, which is related to the future of the Eastern Ying Kingdom.

The purpose of Igayun's mission was simple, to leave the hundreds of students who accompanied him to study culture in the Yutang Empire.

The name of the Yutang Empire, Iga Yun has been around his ears since he was sensible, and he is also very curious about this empire, as if everything in the Dongying Kingdom revolves around this country, the writing originates from that country, the system originates from that country, and the clothing, language, etc. all originate from that country.

Even the capital of the Dongying Kingdom, Pingchengjing, was modeled after the Yu Tang Empire.

However, Iga Yun has always been dismissive of the Yutang Empire, but he has always hidden this disdain in his heart, in his eyes, Dongying is the most powerful country, on this continent, Dongying is invincible, invincible, has completed the unification of Shikoku Island, Iga Yun doesn't know why there are still so many people so afraid of the Yutang Empire.

It has always been the envoy of the Dongying Kingdom to the Yutang Empire, and occasionally the envoys of the Yutang Empire will come over to read some holy oracles, and the Dongying Kingdom, including the emperor, will kneel down to receive the order, three kowtows and nine bows, Iga Yun feels that this is very unruly, why is the Dongying Kingdom so powerful, and it is still so?

The two countries have never fought a war, and Iga Yun has also traveled to many places over the years, and his spirit is very high, and he gradually begins to wonder if this Yutang Empire is really as powerful as his father said?

When the ship docked and came to a place called Dengzhou Mansion, Igayun didn't think how powerful the Yutang Empire was, and there were such cities in Dongying Kingdom, and even more people than them.

"Is this the big city of the Yutang Empire?"

Iga Yun asked the envoy beside him arrogantly, in his opinion, there are only three or four cities of this size, which is not unusual, but the people here are richer than those in Dongying Kingdom, well, that's it.

The deputy envoy was stunned for a moment, looked at Yi Heyun beside him, and said in a low voice: "This is just a small seaside city of the Yutang Empire, and it is still thousands of miles away from Chang'an City......

The officials of Dengzhou City who came to greet him heard Yi Heyun's inquiry and laughed contemptuously: "Dengzhou City is just one of the thirty-six prefectures in my Yutang Empire, and it is not even a state capital!" ”

Iga Yun couldn't help but feel angry when he heard the tone of the little official, he had never had anyone in the Eastern Ying Kingdom to talk to him in this tone, not even the emperor's son or anything had never used this tone, he couldn't help but be a little annoyed, but remembering his father's words, he forcibly endured it.

However, as the mission continued to advance towards the Central Plains of the Yutang Empire, Iheyun's poor self-esteem began to be slowly hit, and at the same time, he felt deeply humiliated.

When the envoy of the Eastern Ying Kingdom came to any city, it was a small official who arranged accommodation, and then ignored it, and when Iga Yun went to the street, his identity did not receive any preferential treatment, and even some merchants saw that he wanted to buy something, and that kind of look was like looking at a beggar......

The arrogant attitude of the officials, the contempt of the people for him, everything made him feel deeply insulted, he was the eldest son of the prime minister of the Dongying Kingdom, and he was respected and admired everywhere he went, but here......

"Get out of the way, get out of the way! Drive, drive......"

A cavalry rushed on the pipeline, with a red flag behind him, and all the people of the Yutang Empire knew very well that this was the Red Flag Messenger, which was the legendary Eight Hundred Miles Rush.

"The mission in front of you quickly get out of the way, otherwise there will be no mercy!"

Igayun's envoy walked on the official road, and heard the shouting behind him from a distance, and was very familiar with the language of the Yutang Empire, after hearing the shout, he turned his head to look at it, and immediately shouted in a panic: "Dodge, dodge, dodge!" Get out of the way! ”

This envoy is very aware of some of the rules of the Yutang Empire, if you block the Red Flag Messenger, even if you are killed, no one will give you grievances, even if you are a foreign envoy......

"We're the Mission, should we give way too?" Iga Yun asked a little puzzled, you must know that when the envoy of the Yutang Empire went to the Eastern Ying Kingdom, the emperor had to personally greet the envoy, and no matter who had to make way for the envoy, why did the envoy of the Eastern Ying Kingdom still have to make way for the messenger when he arrived in the Yutang Empire?

"Get out of the way!"

The envoy looked at Iga Yun, who was still stunned in the middle of the road, gritted his teeth, rushed over and threw him to the side of the road.

And the Red Banner Messenger of the Yutang Empire, who was behind the mission, saw a team of missions blocking the middle of the road in front of him, and without any hesitation, he took out his saber from behind his back, without any slowdown, and continued to rush forward.

Iga Yun was pressed under him, got up from the ground in embarrassment, and yelled in Dongying unhappily: "What are you doing!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a scene that made him heartbroken, only to see the Red Flag messenger, holding a saber, hacking to death the envoys of the Eastern Ying Kingdom who were blocking the road, killing a bloody road, and then galloping away, the whole process was only a few seconds, and there was not even any slowdown, without any inquiry, and he directly killed the mission personnel in the middle of the official road.

"This, this, this ......"

When Iga Yun saw it, his eyes were on fire, but the envoy often breathed a sigh of relief: "Whew...... Iga-kun, it's okay if you're okay, these are red flag messengers, no one is allowed to block the way, don't talk about us, even if the people of the Yutang Empire block their way, they will not hesitate to kill them! ”

"We are the Legation, not the ordinary people!"

Zheng Gao Shan Sui glanced at Iga Yun and shook his head: "In the Yutang Empire, we are not even as good as ordinary people......"

Gao Shansui's words, Iga Yun stayed in place, only one sentence echoed in his mind, in the Yutang Empire, they are not even as good as an ordinary person, he is the son of the prime minister of the Dongying Kingdom, and he is in the Dongying Kingdom......

"Bury the body on the spot and continue on the road......"

After Gao Shan Sui finished speaking, he walked to Yi Heyun's side and said slowly: "The laws of the Yutang Empire stipulate that the people of Yutang kill foreigners and will be fined twenty taels of silver, and those who kill foreigners will slaughter hundreds of ...... of the same clan."

When he heard this, Iga Yun's whole person felt that his world had been turned upside down, it turned out that he was so ridiculous, and he was ......

Seven of the Dongying people were killed in the mission because they didn't have time to avoid the Red Flag Messenger......

"This is Chang'an City?"

Yi Heyun looked at the huge Chang'an city wall in front of him, and almost knelt directly on the ground, he was still resentful when the people in his mission were killed, but now he suddenly did not have any resentment, only boundless horror, and admiration.

"This is Chang'an, the capital of the Yutang Empire, and the largest city in the world, with a population of millions!"

"How could there be such a powerful empire!"

Iga Yun trembled and followed the mission into Chang'an City, and after a short shock, Iga Yun seemed to suddenly wake up, and understood why his father sent so many students to study in the Yutang Empire, and why he ......

"I must stay in Chang'an and bring all the knowledge here back to Dongying!" Iga Yun looked at the magnificent Chang'an City and secretly swore in his heart.

After the Dongying delegation entered Beijing, Yu Zhiqian didn't pay too much attention, but two days ago, he saw an urgent report from the Red Flag Courier, and his heart was happy, his cheap dad was finally coming back, it was not easy, after going out to wave for a few months, his cheap dad found out in his conscience and was ready to go back!

As for the later report by the Ministry of Rites that the Red Flag Messenger seemed to have killed a few people from the Red Flag Messenger on the way here, Yu Zhiqian frowned, and ordered to check out what country mission dared to block the Red Flag Messenger's way, but when Yu Zhiqian saw that it was the Dongying State Mission that blocked the way, he had a smile on his face, and he was worried that there was no excuse, and now it seems that he can toss them well.

In the main hall, Yu Zhiqian was drinking tea while dealing with the chapter, the mission of the Dongying Kingdom was already waiting outside for the summons, it was the weather at the end of March, the weather in Chang'an City was still a little strange, the morning was slightly cool, but the afternoon was a little hot, Yu Zhiqian was not in a hurry to deal with his own government affairs, and it was almost in the evening when he remembered that he had something to do.

Outside the main hall, the Dongying Kingdom Mission has been waiting for three hours, but there is no complaint, waiting for the summons in the side hall, Iga Yun gets up from time to time to the door to see the situation outside, but when he arrives at the door, he will be stopped by the guards.

"Why didn't you summon us?" Iga Yun asked anxiously, he had never been treated like this in the Eastern Ying Kingdom, who did he want to meet......

Gao Shan Sui took a sip of tea and looked at the anxious Iga Yun: "Don't worry, it is already an honor for me to be able to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Yutang Empire, I remember the first time I went to the Yutang Empire, I didn't even see His Majesty the Emperor, and knelt far outside the hall to listen to the order......"

Yi Heyun's face was a little unsightly, and now he didn't dare to say that the Dongying Kingdom could compete with the Yutang Empire, but the Yutang Empire was actually like this......

When the sky was getting dark, finally an inner chamberlain took Takayama Sui and Iga Yun into the side hall.

"Foreign minister, the mountain age of the Eastern Ying Kingdom, I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince!"

"Outer city, Igayun of the Eastern Ying Kingdom, I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince!"

Yu Zhiqian's eyelids raised and glanced at the chief and deputy envoys of the Dongying Mission, and finally understood why there was a title of little devil later, he was really not tall, both of them were about one meter four, and they were dressed very much like Tang costumes, but they were a little nondescript.

"Get up!"

After Yu Zhiqian squinted his eyes and finished speaking, he looked at them curiously, the current Dongying Kingdom can be said to be respectful to the Central Plains Dynasty, without any dissent, and it is one of the most loyal vassal states, but what about the future......

"Your Royal Highness Xie, Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, this is the letter of state presented by the king of Dongying Kingdom, as well as the list of tributes this year, my country is willing to marry the Yutang Dynasty forever!"

Compared with other small countries that take some broken copper and iron to pay tribute, every time Dongying Kingdom pays tribute, it is considered a treasure, Yu Zhiqian glanced at the national letter, the content on it is not much different from before, first say hello, and then start to say some things, Yu Zhiqian now knows the purpose of this group of guys' envoy this time.

Glancing at the gift list again, there were more than 30 beauties from Dongying Country on it, Yu Zhiqian's eyes lit up, the girls of Dongying Kingdom, forget it, they are not those teachers in later generations, looking at Iga Yun and Gao Shan Sui Yu Zhiqian did not have too many expectations.

If you want to be an envoy, generally speaking, you have to choose a thousand people, and only people with good looks and temperament are likely to be envoys, otherwise, wouldn't it lower the country's image? When Cao Cao received foreign envoys, he found someone to pretend to be himself because he didn't look good, let alone the envoys who went to the kingdom?

"It's been a hard journey!" Yu Zhiqian just said four words simply, did not ask for more things, but thought about how to arrange this group of envoys to the Tang Dynasty, and directly refused that his father would definitely not agree, and now he still wants the nautical chart of Dongying Kingdom, but if he uses this as a deal......

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the foreign minister came this time on the order of my king, and I want to send three hundred students from my country to study in the kingdom, and I hope His Royal Highness will approve it!"

At this time, Yu Zhiqian heard clearly, this group of guys claimed to be my king and not the emperor, and after thinking about it carefully, Dongying should have an emperor at this time, but he didn't dare to use the title here, and called the king.

I can't help but think of the history I have seen before, when the envoys of the Dongying Kingdom came to the Central Plains Dynasty, they directly claimed to be at the behest of the emperor or something, and then ...... I didn't think there was anything before, but now it seems that this is completely looking for death, and the title is a very important thing, if someone dares to scream at will, they will be killed!

But when he thought of this, Yu Zhiqian showed a playful smile on his face, slowly tapped the table with his hand, and then slowly said, "Your name is Gao Shan Sui?" ”

"The Outer City Alpine ......"

"No need to introduce, you explain one thing to me!"

When he said this, the corners of Yu Zhiqian's mouth curled slightly: "You said that the king of your Dongying Kingdom calls himself my king, right?" ”

"Yes! Dongying Kingdom is a small country, a vassal state of the Yutang Empire, so my king is naturally my king, and this is Emperor Gaozu's personal ......"

Yu Zhiqian nodded, he had seen this matter himself, his ancestor Yu Yang had canonized the king of Dongying Kingdom back then, it seemed that he was called the king of Fusang or something, Yu Zhiqian didn't remember it.

But that's not the point.

Yu Zhiqian picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said softly: "Then how did I hear that your king claims to be the emperor?" ”

ps: The recovery is almost over, and there will be more recovery on the first of next month!
