Chapter 349: Don't play like this

The first question now is that we need more countries to actively participate in this diplomatic race.

Yanyu then issued the most objective and active foreign policy.

The Japanese envoys made a pilgrimage to the Central Plains Dynasty, which was a great opportunity.

No far-sighted and politically literate person will let it go easily, and the most urgent thing now is to magnify this diplomatic incident infinitely, preferably to the West, so that the whole world knows about it.

Of course, the Liao State and the Jin State are naturally the current leaders of the northeast and northwest frontiers. Their positive attitude far exceeded Yan Yu's expectations, all the diplomats thought that these two countries were just going to take advantage of the fire to loot, seeing that Japan was going to come to the Hajj and would return to Tokyo full of goods, and they also knew the generosity of the Tang people, how could such a good thing not be a good thing.

All the preparations are being carried out in an orderly manner.

But Yan Yu's new strategy came out again, he wanted to tell the people in the west, what we are doing, including King Hami, who used to kneel in front of the Tang Emperor very well-behaved, I haven't seen him for many years, I don't know if I can continue to do so. When the Central Plains Dynasty is strong, they will not hesitate to enter the Hajj as soon as possible, and make friends and pull relations, as if the whole world is yours, and we are just the leader of a small region of yours.

You must know that the gross national product of the Tang Dynasty has far exceeded that of the Tang Dynasty, although people in many places still think that we are just a small prosperous era after the Tang Dynasty, but the fact is not the case at all.

Now the GDP of the Tang Dynasty is three times that of the Tang Dynasty, specifically estimated, about 30,000 taels of silver, of course, this is only last year's data, Yan Yu estimates that the latest data will far exceed this figure, and the huge benefits and dividends brought by the reform are unpredictable.

Your strength makes your enemies small.

The envoys of the Uighurs, Tibetans, Jin, Liao, and Hami are all on their way to Chang'an, of course, they are not only carrying some local specialties, but the most precious specialties in the local area, especially the king of Hami, who seems to have never seen anything in the world, only carried the cantaloupe fifty carts, and the whole world should taste the taste of our cantaloupe, beautiful!

Fart, this is not a local specialty? Or is it the most expensive specialty?

Well, now that the policy has been set, let's do it, whoever is the first, I will give him three times as much as the gift.

They knew that the gift given by the Central Plains Dynasty would not be shabby, because it was the gift from the Central Plains Dynasty that King Hami relied on the gift of the Central Plains Dynasty to make the whole country rich.

Of course they needed a lot of silk and porcelain, which would have been ten or even twenty times more valuable to the West.

The Uighur merchants traded with the Persian merchants because of a piece of adobe from the Tang Dynasty official kiln, which was still a semi-finished product, and after the fire, the caravan that injured thousands of people was only snatched back the adobe of the semi-finished product of the official kiln.

There are a lot of such things, King Hami sat in the car and shook his fat head to look energetic, and the whole person was very energetic, he knew that he would definitely get the first place this time.

To get the high reward in front of the king of the first-class kingdom, he has even thought about what kind of obedient words he will say after meeting Emperor Tang, but he also has his little Jiujiu, the original canonization of him is the grade of an earl, that is still the title inherited by the Tang Emperor canonized by his ancestors during the Tang Dynasty, this time, he wants to glorify his ancestors.

yes, there's a price to pay, you know what goes fastest in the desert.

Of course it's a camel, but a camel doesn't walk, and now King Hami's camel is really running, and it's running very fast.

Although the fifty carts of cantaloupe were very heavy, the procession of several hundred people ran rampant in the desert like a puff of smoke, as if thousands of troops were chasing after them, which was very comical.

I'm the closest, and I'm still the fastest. Chang'an, I'm here.

The Uighur and Tibetan envoys were also very fast, although this was only in terms of speed.

Although their caravan was far less numerous than that of King Hami, they were also very energetic.

If we talk about it, to tell the truth, King Hami was not far from rich, and he was a very low-key man, and his country was indeed the richest in the Western Regions at that time.

The Tibetans drove the donkey carts, the Uighurs drove the wagons, and the Hami rode camels, and in this way, the three major Western forces met loyally in Tianshui, which was about to enter the Guangzhong Plain.

TND! What should I do, I didn't expect the Uighurs to be very fast......

It was impossible without the outbreak of war, and soon the army of the king of Hami took control of the situation, and there were not many people and horses in Tibet, and the mountains were high and the roads were far away, and they did not have many items to carry.

The Uighurs, however, were brave enough to make their way to the country without being robbed of much tribute. Of course, under Chang'an City, outside the Mingde Gate, two teams, to be precise, two teams plus two people, the three teams met again, and the consequence of the verbal dispute was to fight and fight again.

It was fought in front of the civil and military officials.

"What?"

"Isn't that kidding?"

The old minister really wasn't joking, then King Hami robbed the goods of the other two envoys, and he was beaming with pride.

Of course, the first to step into the Mingde Gate was naturally King Hami, because he brought the most men and horses, and the tribute was also the richest.

The second was the Uighurs, and the third was two Tibetan envoys, who had nothing on them and did not know what to do.

What about the Japanese?

They...... Also coming.

But when King Hami saw from a distance that the envoys of Liao and Jin had already arrived in Chang'an and were laughing in front of Li Yu's Jinluan Palace, he already knew that he was late.

Declare...... The king of the first-class country, the king of Liao, the king of the second-class country, the king of the second-class country, the king of the third-class country......

Wait!

A woman's voice suddenly came in.

Japanese envoy?

When Yan Yu looked sideways and saw this stubborn female ambassador for the first time, her whole eyes really lit up.

This woman is not only tall, but also looks very leisurely, with a high bun with clouds, but she is dressed in the clothes of a righteous man, looking heroic and sassy, without any sense of procrastination.

Isn't she supposed to wear a kimono?

cough cough cough ......

She is a woman dressed as a man, of course, as a minister of the embassy corps, naturally cannot wear the traditional clothing of a kimono, and the formal dress of a male official is the first choice.

Third place is our ......

But you are indeed late, how can you say that it is yours.

Fujiwara Norika glanced at Yanyu and said to Li Yu: "Although I am late, our envoy group is the first to arrive in Chang'an......"

The voice is true, and it is a standard Chinese pronunciation, which is enough for people's attention, and this woman stepped forward, glanced at King Hami beside her, and said, "We are Dongying's envoys, and there are as many as a thousand members of the envoy alone, this is the importance we attach to Your Majesty, isn't it?" ”

This......

I said this...... Your Excellency Special Envoy, you have been hovering outside Chang'an City for two months, during this period, since you have arrived in my Tang Dynasty, but you have not entered the city to bow to the Son of Heaven, this is a great disrespect, do you know......

The Emperor has sent a message from our country that he is willing to change his title to King of Japan and accept the canonization of His Majesty......

The woman glanced at Yan Yu hatefully, leaned over and bowed down to His Royal Highness, but she bowed like this, but the male official's official uniform couldn't stop the wonderful posture.

Looking at it in a flash, Fujiwara Norika was a little annoyed after saying this, but this was the king's order, and no one could disobey it, and now she was kneeling in front of Li Yu and bowing three times and nine bows.

Due to the rush of time, the envoys of other countries only watched the woman toss and turn there, but such complex gestures and movements are really not something that can be seen on the spot.

Li Yu suddenly stood up in front of him.

When the woman raised her eyes, she saw it, but it was Yanyu's posture. She didn't know whether she should stand up after the salute at this time, or continue to kneel like this, in short, the big man in front of her with his hands behind his back did make her cheeks red, very unhappy.
