Just taking out this "ancient oriental saying" can overwhelm their Tang officials and bow down, which is simply full of pride for Inugami Yutian Qiu and the Tang envoys behind him.

Using the words handed down by the ancestors of the Tang people to make the Tang people speechless, this feeling makes them happier than the Dongying people using "violence" to conquer.

Inougami Yutian Qiu and the Tang envoys behind him, seeing that no one among the Tang officials fought back, suddenly felt a good breath in their hearts.

They had already started to wait, and it would not be long before Zhang Yuxuan would send someone to buy the food they wanted to taste.

However, before they had time to be happy, they heard Li Yi suddenly laugh and said: "It seems that Ambassador Inougami really doesn't have a deep study of our oriental culture, this sentence is really modest, and it is not false at all!" ”

As soon as Li Yi's words fell, Dongying's Tang envoys looked at Li Yi in a daze, and they were very puzzled by this.

Inougami Yutian Qiu's face couldn't help but pause, and then, he squinted at Li Yi, who was not far in front of him, and said with a smile: "I don't know what Doctor Li thinks?" The dog is willing to hear about it. ”

Seeing this, Li Yi couldn't help but shake his head and laugh again.

"It's just a Dongying widow, and he still thinks about bullying us with the hospitality handed down by our ancestors? It's whimsical!"

Li Yi cut his hands behind his back, and there was no trace of anxiety on his face, but he glanced at Inugami Yutian Qiu with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Then, Li Yi said slowly: "The phrase "Friends come from afar, it's fun", Ambassador Inu is indeed right, this is indeed the hospitable words left by our ancestors, and it is also the traditional virtue of our Tang people. ”

"However, there is an old saying about hospitality, and you should be unheard of and unheard of as ambassador of the dog."

Li Yi smiled mysteriously, and Yu Feng also paused.

He didn't go on and down, but deliberately stopped here and sold a pass.

Sure enough, as soon as Inugami Yutian Qiu heard Li Yi's words, he was immediately interested, and asked with a straight face: "What ancient saying?" ”

Raising his eyebrows and glancing at Inougami Yutian Qiu, Li Yi smiled slightly, and then said unhurriedly: "Youyi comes from afar, although it is far away, it will be punished!" ”

"......" Inougami Yutian Qiu was obviously choked on the spot by Li Yi's words.

He was stunned for most of the day, but he still hadn't come back to his senses.

In the memory of Inugami Ota Aki, he had not heard this sentence.

Moreover, if there is anyone in the entire country who is the most authoritative in the study of "Oriental languages", if he thinks he is second, then absolutely no one dares to say first.

But the ancient saying that Li Yi said just now, Inugami Yutian Qiu wanted to break his scalp, but he didn't think of the source of this sentence.

"Is there such a sentence in the ancient sayings handed down by the Orientals?"

Inugami Mitaaki pondered for a while, and kept chanting several times in his mouth - "There is a Yi from afar, and there is a far away will be punished!"

Finally, after repeating it over and over again, he finally understood the meaning of the words.

Inugami Ota Qiu suddenly came to his senses, and even on his forehead, a cold sweat broke out in his heart, and Inugami Ota Aki only felt that the placket on his back was about to be soaked with fright.

The meaning of this sentence is so straightforward and obvious, where can it be an ancient saying?

Li Yi obviously used these words to test the reason why they came to Tang!

But soon, Inugami Ota Autumn immediately sank down.

Inougami Ota Aki knew it very well in his heart.

In the entire team of Tang envoys, except for him and the deputy envoy Huiri, the others only knew that they were sent to the Tang Kingdom just to learn advanced etiquette and technology.

They didn't know at all that the emperor's true intention of sending them to Tang to study and communicate!

Secretly took two deep breaths, and Inugami Yutian Qiu's face sank.

"Doctor Li!" Inougami Yutian Qiu glared at Li Yi extremely angrily, gritted his teeth and asked, "We, the Dongying Kingdom, have always had a heart of reverence for your country, and now our Majesty the Emperor has sincerely sent Tang envoys to your country to study and exchange, is it ...... Is this your Tang hospitality? ”

Inougami Yutian Qiu made a clear conscience and asked Li Yi rhetorically.

He knew that only in this way could he hide the ears and suspicions of the Tang people.

Hearing Inougami Yutian Qiu's words of accountability, Li Yi smiled slightly, then shook his head and said, "Yes and no." ”

"And what do you mean?" Inugami Ota Qiu couldn't help but be stunned, feeling a little dizzy in his head.

He was a little blindsided by Li Yi's language and writing.

Li Yi didn't answer him in a hurry, but glanced at Inougami Yutian Qiu, and then said with a smile: "Ambassador Inujo, since you said that your Dongying Kingdom and our Tang Kingdom are friends, then we Tang people will naturally treat each other with courtesy." ”

"But we treat you with courtesy, why don't you obey the laws of Tang in our land of Tang Kingdom?"

"Let me ask you, Ambassador Inu, can you be considered a friend in this way?"

Li Yi took out his hand from behind his back, gently twisted his sleeves, raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced at Inougami Yutian Qiu, and said coldly, "In my opinion, it is better to say that it is Yi, it is more appropriate!" ”

Suddenly, Li Yi's last sentence was as loud as a cannon battle on the ground, which shocked everyone in Dongying.

They only felt that they were all over their bodies because of Li Yi's last sentence, which aroused a layer of goosebumps.

And the faces of Inougami Ota Aki and Yakushi Huiri all flashed with a look of panic that no one noticed.

Before they could explain, Zhang Yuxuan on the side also said loudly: "Doctor Li's words are good, treat friends, our Tang Kingdom is naturally welcome with both hands, but if you come from afar, you will be punished even if you are far away!" ”

Zhang Yuxuan also learned Li Yi's words and let out a fierce sigh.

At this moment, Inugami Yutian Qiu's heart finally understood what a wrong decision it was for the people they sent before to cut the queue to buy food!

He shouldn't have had a lot of trouble with the Tang people because of such a trivial matter.

If it was because of this incident that he and the pharmacist Huiri exposed the true purpose of this trip, it would be worth the loss.

Thinking clearly about the stakes, Inugami Yutian Qiu immediately bowed, squeezed out a strong face on his face, and said with a smile: "Doctor Li, Envoy Zhang, the two of you are too serious to say. ”

"That's right, two Tang officials." Pharmacist Huiri, who had been silent, also immediately stood up from the crowd.

As soon as he arched his hand slightly, he directly apologized and said: "Before, it was indeed our fault that we caused such a misunderstanding. ”

While speaking, the pharmacist Hui Ri and the two of them bowed their hands again in a heart-to-heart connection, and they all made a Tang Kingdom gift to Li Yi and other Tang officials.

Seeing Inougami Yutian Qiu and Yakushi Huiri, they all saluted and apologized, Li Yi felt that it was nothing, it should have been like this.

However, Zhang Yuxuan, as well as the Tang court envoys behind him, as well as the Tang envoys who came to Dongying, were suddenly a little shocked.

They couldn't believe that the Dongying people, who were arrogant and like tigers before, had now become a sick cat.
