Watching this scene, as the swords and guns of the gatekeeper were unsheathed, one of the soldiers hurriedly stopped the impending vicious fight. For when he heard them call the king by his name, he seemed to sense that they were not small. So, he hurriedly muttered a few words in the ear of the city gate official, and the city gate official was also shocked at this time. But when he saw them, he immediately begged: "Master, please raise your hand, and the small one will go and report it."

Hearing this, Chen Maocai let go of his gently squeezed hand, sat under the gazebo outside the city gate, put one leg on the bench at will, drank the tea of the city gate official, and looked at the obedient city gate official who was being rectified by himself very majestically, shook his head, and sneered again.

At this time, Wei Chi Fu Yanxin was playing with his young son in the garden of the palace, and heard that the soldiers guarding the gate came to report, saying that there was a team, what is the big, the old man from the Tang Dynasty, what is the name, Wang, Wang Xuance, asked to see the king outside the city gate, and was also stunned, and then asked: "You are talking about the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, Wang Xuance"

"Yes, yes, yes, there are about thirty men, a hundred horses, with goods, and they look like caravans," added the gatekeeper.

Because a few days ago, he had already received a report that the Tang Kingdom had sent an envoy Wang Xuance to the countries of the Western Regions, and he never thought that he would arrive in his own country so soon.

This lieutenant Chi Fu Yanxin hurriedly put down his young son, and then summoned the civil and military ministers and went out of the city with him to greet him.

After a while, the gate of Jiaohe City opened, accompanied by the sound of blowing and beating. A group of strong soldiers immediately cleared the obstacles along the street. Yu Chi Fu Yanxin took the civil and military ministers and appeared at the gate of this Jiaohe City. At this time, when the city gate official saw that the king had really come out, he immediately trembled with fright and broke out in a cold sweat. Zhou Zeng and Chen Maocai glanced at each other, and saw Zhou Zeng walking over, and told him in his ear: "Don't want to collect anyone's money, you have to understand it!" Hearing this, the city gate officer immediately collapsed to the ground.

This Wang Xuance saw that it was Yu Chi Fu Yanxin who personally went out of the city to greet him, and hurriedly patted the dust on his body and greeted him. The old people met each other and were very enthusiastic. I think that in Chang'an City, this Wei Chi Fu Yanxin had no friends to come and go, but this Wang Xuance came to talk for a long time, and when he returned to the country, he personally sent him off in Wulingyuan, and he missed the friendship of the past!

"I don't know if the virtuous brother is coming, there is a loss of welcome, there is a loss of welcome, please atone for your sins, you should notify the eldest brother in advance, so that the eldest brother can go out of the city for five miles to greet him" This lieutenant Chi Fu Yanxin said politely holding Wang Xuance's hand.

"Thank you for the king's kindness, Xuan Ce can envoy to your country, and he should come in accordance with the due etiquette, and there should be no trespass" Wang Xuan Ce humbly returned. With this appropriate speech during the conversation, the relationship between the two was even better than before.

After they exchanged pleasantries, Wei Chi Fu Yanxin instructed the Minister of State: "Clean up the good post house for the Tang envoys to rest." "After thanking him for his kindness. This lieutenant Chi Fu Yanxin pulled Wang Xuance again, and invited Zhou Zeng and Chen Maocai to prepare to board his car together. Seeing that he was so gifted, although the three of them shirked a lot, they were still invited to the car by Wei Chi Fu Yanxin; and together they went towards the palace......

But as soon as they saw that everyone had entered the palace, the youngest son of the lieutenant Chi Fu Yanxin ran out and got into his father's arms. I only heard Wei Chi Fu Yanxin say to him: "Hurry up and call uncle." The little prince then shouted angrily: "Uncle."

This shout made Wang Xuance quite surprised, but after thinking about it, he understood, and hurriedly said: "This little bean has grown so big?" ”

"yes, it's almost seven years old."

The four of them, looking at the cute little prince, felt that this scene was very warm.

It turned out that when this Wei Chi Fu Yanxin was hostage in the Tang Dynasty, one day, wandering on Suzaku Street, he never thought that a girl walked past him, quite eye-catching, and later found that this girl was the daughter of the shopkeeper of the "Tongchang Ji" cloth shopkeeper. In the casual conversation with Wang Xuance, he found out that he had a good impression of this woman. Therefore, he became a matchmaker from the middle, and after these several matchmaking, the two naturally had the same heart, and soon under the witness of Wang Xuance, they contributed to the marriage.

Since this woman followed this captain Chi Fu Yanxin, her luck has become more smooth, a year later, she gave birth to this prince, less than half a year, they returned to this Khotan, inherited the throne, so they took care of and pampered this Han woman.

This woman has become a princess at this time, and when she heard that Wang Xuance was coming, she was also very enthusiastic; But I saw her hurriedly walking out of the harem. After a warm greeting, according to the proper etiquette, everyone sat down separately.

At this time, I only heard Wang Xuance say: "The purpose of this mission to the countries is to maintain the eternal peace between the two sides, stop the fighting, and under the leadership of the Heavenly Khan, in line with the principle of one family in the world and no distinction between inside and outside, we will jointly maintain the trade route of the Western Regions and achieve mutual benefit and win-win results!" ”

"What the virtuous brother said is that I have naturally followed the will of the Heavenly Khan in Khotan all these years, and I have acted in accordance with this principle, and as long as the merchants who have passed through me in Khotan, they have collected a little tax according to the proper practice, and they will be allowed to leave the country in full force, and they will be fully protected. So please rest assured, please rest assured, please rest assured that Tian Khan" Yu Chi Fu said solemnly.

With Wang Xuance's signal, I saw Zhou Zeng and Chen Maocai, who also presented the state gift to the king of Khotan.

"This is the wish of His Majesty the Great Tang Heavenly Khan, please accept it," Wang Xuance said sincerely!

These two national gifts are not very familiar to other countries in the Western Regions; But for the king of Khotan, who has lived in the Tang Dynasty for several years, it is quite familiar.

Since entering the study of the Taixue of the Tang Dynasty, this Tao Te Ching is an indispensable subject. Look at this portrait of Lao Tzu again, you don't need to get closer, you know that this must be from the hand of this Yan Liben, since Yan Liben's name is Chang'an, it is very difficult to get one of his paintings. Although he is quite fond of Tang culture, he has never received his own paintings, and he never thought that he could get them today, so he is also full of joy.

And this set of quite delicate purple pottery plain noodle tea set is a thing used by the palace at a glance. Although since returning to Khotan, he has also purchased several sets of tea sets from the Tang Dynasty, and also asked the traders to bring back some tea, but there has never been this set of tea sets. It can use the things used by the Tang royal family, which is naturally wonderful!

Seeing that it was such a meaningful national gift, this lieutenant Chi Fu Yanxin hurriedly stepped down from the throne and observed it carefully. He thanked His Majesty the Great Tang Heavenly Khan for his gifts.

Quick Facts: Yu Chi Fu Jaxin, King of Khotan in the 7th century. After Tang Taizong was buried in Zhaoling, the image of Fu Yanxin was listed under Xuanque, and he was one of the fourteen monarchs of Zhaoling.
