Chapter 854: Ten Days of Bianjing

The eldest princess Anna pondered for a long time before finally nodding affirmatively, the practice of the Great Song Dynasty and Rome is the same, this is the essence, so she agreed with Zhao Huan's approach, and even took notes.

"I have noticed that the Wa Kingdom, Mobei, and Kereh Ministries have all sent official documents asking for help, Your Majesty knows that Humbert is my godfather, and I still know a little about the Mobei Ministries. I wonder if His Majesty is ready to rescue them? The eldest princess looked at the little book and asked another question.

Zhao Huan was silent for a moment and asked: "If France or England, or the current Holy Roman Empire asks for help from your Rome, and you are the king of the Roman Empire, how will you choose?" ”

The eldest princess was a little confused by this rhetorical question, after all, she had been away from her homeland for several years, she thought for a long time before shaking her head and saying: "Our situation is not good, when the plague is raging, we cannot protect ourselves, let alone help others. ”

Hearing such an honest answer, Zhao Huan nodded with a smile and said: "We are helping the Wa Kingdom, helping Goryeo, we have a great intention to help Mobei, even if the Lu Khan of the Kereh Department doesn't seem to want us to intervene, but we are still doing it." ”

"We have an ancient saying in the Great Song Dynasty, called the cold lips and teeth, if all the four are in danger, the Great Song Dynasty will be in danger, and it is impossible to be alone."

Anna nodded, recorded these words, and said with a sigh: "I envy that the Great Song Dynasty has such a vast territory, and I also envy the efficient bureaucrats of the Great Song Dynasty, and I also envy the people of the Great Song Dynasty who can be so smart and can come up with so many ways when the epidemic occurs." ”

"If Rome were the superpower of the Mediterranean, I think we would be able to help the barbarians through this."

After the record, Princess Anna asked with a smile: "I learned from Honglu Temple that the Great Song Dynasty is now very polite to foreign merchants and encourages them to come to the Great Song Dynasty to do business, I know this is a good thing, but Honglu Temple also talked about a problem today, that is, maritime merchants who have returned from overseas." ”

Honglu Temple is the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Great Song Dynasty, mainly responsible for foreign affairs, with the more frequent foreign trade, the Great Song Dynasty foreign merchants are also more and more, they have an urgent desire to understand the policy of the Great Song Dynasty.

In today's increasingly prosperous Song Dynasty bookstore and various tabloids, the Honglu Temple once every ten days to answer the meeting, it has become a window to understand the wishes of the Great Song Dynasty, and at present, the six departments will also answer some discussions on the policy in the Honglu Temple.

This is Li Bangyan making full use of his connections, and Zhao Huan is happy to see it.

Anna looked at the contemplative appearance of the official family, and asked with a little apology: "Dear Your Majesty, I don't mean to offend, this question Honglu Temple refused to answer, and Chen Chong, who was in charge of the Great Song Dynasty Commerce Department in charge of the city, also refused to answer this question, but the problem of the return of these merchants needs to be solved." ”

Zhao Huan finally came back to his senses from his contemplation and said with a smile: "Their identities are very special. My decision was that they could return to China, but they would have to cooperate with my anti-epidemic tactics, and they would need to be quarantined quietly for 7 to 14 days in the quarantine area established by the city. ”

"The official family is really benevolent." Anna said with a look of surprise, "Why do you want to do this?" ”

"Because they're Song people." Zhao Huan said affirmatively.

"Oh my God! Is it just because they are Song people? Anna said with a look of disbelief: "You know that I am not talking about maritime merchants, but merchants who have returned from overseas. When they were in trouble, they fled the country. ”

Anna's question is that in the first year of Jingkang, the army of the Great Song Dynasty was defeated by the Jin people, and the people of Hedong and Hebei fled south, and the panic of this escape spread to Jiangnan, Lianghuai, Liangzhejiang, Fujian, and Lingnan.

And now the Great Song Dynasty is as prosperous as it was at the beginning, but because of the epidemic in the Wa Kingdom, the plague in the Champang, Li Dynasty, and Wanli Haitang countries has become more and more ferocious. These people who ran away are now coming back.

In Anna's eyes, this was no different from a traitor, but the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty actually agreed to their return.

Zhao Huan nodded and said, "They are all Song people, of course they are qualified to come back." Husband and wife were originally birds of the same forest, and they flew separately when disaster came. Husband and wife, let alone an unsightly, untrustworthy court. ”

Anna finally nodded convincingly, and she said as she wrote: "I am now more and more convinced that Your Majesty is the King of the East that I am looking for. ”

Zhao Huan looked at Anna's slightly reverent eyes and explained, "You know, they themselves carry a lot of wealth. Of course, they have a huge network of contacts and relationships in Wanli Haitang, which is more valuable than the value of wealth itself. ”

"This is also the reason why they fled there, and I believe that these connections, networks, and trade ports can be used by the Great Song Dynasty and can accelerate the trade exchanges between countries."

Anna looked at Zhao Huan in surprise: "Your Majesty is not only a benevolent king, but also a shrewd businessman. ”

When Li Qingzhao heard this, he laughed out loud, this is the cultural difference, in the Great Song Dynasty, he said to the king that he was a businessman, and he was always so out of place.

Anna looked at the notebook full of notes written in her hand, and asked with a slightly satisfied glare in her shining eyes: "Your Majesty said before that if there is a locust plague somewhere, Your Majesty will eat locusts raw, I don't know if Your Majesty's words are still true?" ”

Zhao Huan chose to refuse to answer this question, this is a handicap in the market, and Zhao Huan's mouth is the end of betting dogs.

The eldest princess stroked the tips of her hair behind her ears, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the concubine has passed the screening, when will she be able to have a child with Your Majesty?" Your Majesty is the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, and he wants to be King John in the East, but I want to bring back a King John in the West. ”

Zhao Huan shook his head and said: "You have to pass the next screening before you can be promoted to concubine, but after being promoted to concubine, you have to stay in the palace for the rest of your life, even if I dislike you and become ugly, you can only live in the cold palace." Unless I die, you will never be able to leave this palace. ”

Zhao Huan looked at Anna's slightly frightened eyes, and knew that she didn't know at all how strict the rules of the Great Song royal family were compared to the somewhat chaotic Europa royal family.

"You'd better think clearly, if it's just a palace maid, you can leave the palace and marry someone else." Zhao Huan asked with a smile: "You have been holding this notebook, what are you writing?" ”

Anna raised the notebook in her hand and said with a smile, "Is this this?" I call it "Bianjing Decameron". ”
