In the evening, Lee Seung-ji held a dinner at the Golden Hall. All civil and military officials of the third rank and above in Malu are required to dress up to attend. Governors and envoys were also invited. Nominally, it was to welcome the arrival of the Great Liao Angels, but in fact, it was Li Chengji who announced the canonization of the Great Liao to the outside world.

On the borders of Central Asia, statehood is the easiest. Even if there is only one city, a small country can be formed. What's more, Khorasan is in charge of the land of the five counties, and it can already be regarded as a powerful country that dominates one side.

Therefore, when the envoys heard the news, they all took it for granted.

The civil and military officials of the former Khorasan Governor's Mansion were not surprised. After all, the Governor's Palace of Khorasan has always been a transcendent existence. Although the six ministries and departments have no name for the country, all kinds of behaviors have the reality of the country.

So in their eyes, it's a matter of course.

But in any case, the promotion of the Khorasan Governor's Palace to the Khorasan State is something to be happy about. Therefore, at the banquet, the civil and military officials all congratulated Li Chengji vigorously. The envoys from all sides also followed the officials and congratulated Li Chengji.

Kushistan's envoy, Tokir Jalabahjan Mohammed, took advantage of the situation to propose the annexation. Although news of Khorasan had not yet reached Kushistan, Tokhir knew what their governor meant.

So I immediately made a decision to surrender to Li Chengji first. It was also these days that he had seen the strength of the Governor's Palace in Khorasan. Therefore, it is deeply believed that sooner or later the land of Persia will fall into the hands of Li Chengji.

took the lead in expressing his position, and it was also good to ask for a lottery.

Sure enough, Li Chengji, who was sitting at the top and wearing a brocade robe, thought for a while before responding: "Now I am not only the king of Khorasan, but also the soldiers and horses in the surrounding areas of Khorasan. Then it is also a matter of acceptance of the attachment of your governor. ”。

Hearing this, Toqueil's face immediately turned happy.

Li Chengji prepared pen and ink again, and said loudly: "The governor of Kushistan, Makbury, guards the county of the assassination and controls the land of the assassination. Changed Ximo Niang to Symnan, which is the same as Ke Jiyun in the second county. The positions of Qadi, emir, etc., are equal to those of the Khorasan counties. ”。

Thorn Yi is located south of the present-day city of Tehran, Iran, but the cloud is now Qazvin, and Ximo Niang is Semnan. It's just that Li Chengji felt that the name of Ximo Niang was too ugly, so he changed it to the modern Semnam.

In this way, as soon as the state of Khorasan was established, it was newly acquired the land of three counties. This also indicates that Khorasan officially replaced Khorezm and set foot in the land of Western Persia. The envoys of Sistan, Fars, Macran, and the forces around the Caspian Sea all looked at Tokil Shane with complicated expressions.

Khorezm's envoy Hami repaid him! Since Li Chengji threw out the olive branch of reconciliation, Mahamat sent envoys over. Now the two sides have agreed that the existing borders will be their respective areas of actual control and that trade exchanges will be resumed.

Goods from Persia, Tianzhu and other places also entered the territory of Khorezm. Similarly, goods from the southern Russian steppes, Kievan Rus' and even northern Europe were able to flow into Khorasan.

This is like timely rain for Mahama, who is short of supplies.

At this moment, Hami reciprocated and looked at the reaction of the envoys, and his expression was a little distracted. He was originally a Khitan, and because he did business in Khorezm, he was appreciated by Mahama. He often probed for Mahamat to find information about Western Liao, and contributed a lot.

This time, out of concern for Khorasan, Mahamat sent him to Malu. Keep an eye on Khorasan and adapt to the situation.

The thoughtful reactions of the envoys at the moment made him understand. The attachment of the governor of Kushistan worries them very much.

In the end, they are all neighbors, and they are all the same in status. Therefore, what Kushistan and Khorasan did was not suspected of colluding to force them to annex themselves.

In that case, you can make a big fuss about it. Just as he was thinking about this, Eunuch Liu, who was sitting at the bottom, only felt that the prestige of Khorasan was very heavy. Compared with the leaky Da Liao, it is even closer.

He toasted a glass of wine to Xiao Pengzhen beside him, and said loudly: "The miscellaneous family has heard the reputation of the governor for a long time, so they took advantage of this envoy to come to visit one or two. It's just that because the saint condemned the king of Qi, the lord of the country seems to be quite alienated from the miscellaneous family.

Therefore, here, I asked Supervisor Xiao to be in front of the lord of the country and say a few good words for the miscellaneous family. After a glass of wine, Eunuch Liu wiped his mouth again and added: "If it is successful, the miscellaneous family will be in front of the saint and try their best to keep the position of the envoy of the Khanate of Eunuch Xiao." ”。

After Yang Dajian was captured by Yelu Zizheng, this Liu Yi became a popular man in front of the saint. For the sake of envelopment, Yeluzi is also on good terms with him. So in terms of the weight of speech, it is still not low.

Xiao Pengzhen listened, and then agreed. Now that Huihe surrendered to Mongolia, most of the subjects of Daliao are not very obedient. Like the Eastern Qarakhanid, the tribute was cut off. The Western Qarakhanids did not dare to despise the majesty of the Great Liao too much because Li Chengji was staying in the south.

Therefore, I still have patience and pay tribute to Da Liao. It's just the amount, but it's not the same as before. And his attitude towards Xiao Pengzhen is not as respectful as before.

That's lucky! Otherwise, like the envoy of the Eastern Kharat Khanate, he was driven back to Balasagon directly.

Therefore, his position as a rather fat overseer is inevitably remembered. Xiao Pengzhen has already ordered people to operate in the court, wanting to keep his position as a prisoner. It's a pity that he doesn't have a deep friendship with the officials of Yeluzi's righteous faction.

It's not easy to make this work.

Now with Liu Yi's help, there is a great possibility of success in this matter.

It is for this reason that he did not refuse Liu Yi's request.

Of course, it is also because he thinks that he and Li Chengji are good. So it's not difficult to say a few words for Liu Yi.

The whole banquet came to an end in a lively atmosphere.

Early the next morning, a high platform was erected on the mosque square in the city of Maru. Hundreds of civil and military officials and envoys from all over the country were all present again. Liu Yi, who had rested for the night, took the holy decree of the saint, bathed and changed clothes, and read it out in front of everyone.

In order to let more people hear, Lee Seungji also made a simple horn. makes Liu Yi's voice be maximized. He also arranged for people who knew Persian and Huihe to stand on the edge of the high platform and translate Liu Yi's words at the same time.

It took about a stick of incense for Liu Yi to finish reading the holy decree. Although the people below heard it in a fog, they still understood. Their province of Khorasan has become the kingdom of Khorasan.

For a while, many people cheered loudly.

And after completing the complicated ceremony and accepting the king's canonization, Li Chengji also announced on the spot that the Khorasan counties would be exempted from taxes for one year. And choose a good day and an auspicious day to hold a founding ceremony.
