Chapter 316 Lots of hard work
Nanshengmi and others worked hard and finally arrived in the remote area of Lelang County; Gongsun Du once ruled the Korean Peninsula for a long time, and divided Lelang into two counties: Lelang County and Obifang County. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Le Lang Taishou was originally appointed by Cao Cao to guard Liang Mao, but because Gongsun Du occupied the Liaodong Peninsula, he was detained locally.
Hougongsun Du was killed by the Hu people, and none of his heirs survived, so the people of Lelang County set up Liangmao as Lelang Taishou and led Lelang's affairs. Because Youzhou was occupied by Xianbei, but the counties of Lelang and Daifang in Liaodong were still under the rule of the Han Dynasty; However, because the land route is blocked, it can only rely on sea transportation to get in touch with Hanting.
The distance between Lelang County and the Japanese islands is not much different from that of Samhan, so there are many fishermen who know a lot of Japanese language; In the communication with the Han people, it didn't take much effort to find the county guard of Lelang County.
Junshou Liangmao is a humble gentleman, although he doesn't know whether he is doing things for Cao Cao or the Han court, but in the face of the diplomatic envoys of the Wa State, he still gave the other party preferential treatment and did not ask for any bribes, which made Nan Shengmi and others have a lot of favorability towards the Central Plains.
Because of the language problem, and the local fishermen know the Japanese language is limited, Liang Mao had no choice but to recruit Guan Ning, who took refuge in Liaodong, this person is a well-known scholar, and Bing Yuan, Hua Xin and the two are called a dragon, and he is a dragon tail, does not mean that his talent is not as good as the two of him, but if you describe three dragons, I am afraid that it will be feared by those in power.
Originally, Guan Ning had few desires, and only set up a school in Liaodong Defeat Hall to teach talents; Those Central Plains people who avoided the chaos in Liaodong all went back, and he was still happy here. Hearing that Liangmao was in trouble, Guan Ning had always admired this person's popularity, so he was obligated to come to help.
With Guan Ning here, the conversation between the two sides seems to be much smoother; Liang Mao asked: "Now that the Central Plains is in turmoil, the two envoys have come from afar from the Wa Kingdom, I don't know why?" β
Nanshengmi's one-meter-four body looked quite short in this hall, but he didn't feel embarrassed at all, and raised his head and said, "We are waiting for the Central Plains royal capital to go to the Central Plains royal capital on the order of Queen Yamatai, and ask for support for us!" β
"I wonder what it's for?"
Nansheng Mi talked about the current battle between Yamatai and the Dog Slave State, and he naively thought that as long as his country chose to submit to the Han State, the Han State would help him crusade against the Dog Slave State.
But it turned out that he was indeed too naΓ―ve, and after hearing the request of the difficult to promote rice, Liang Mao said with a little embarrassment: "It's not that we are stingy, it's just that your country is far away from the island, and it is far away from us, and now there are frequent wars in the Central Plains, even if Your Excellency goes to the royal capital, it is difficult to get reinforcements, at most there is an edict." In my opinion, you might as well just wait and return to your life! β
Guan Ning also means the same as Liang Mao, after all, politicians only focus on their own interests, and he is just a small country on an island, with a long way to go, what capital does Cao Cao have to send troops to help? They also discouraged the difficulty of raising rice together.
I don't know the situation in the Central Plains, and I wonder if there is a war in the Han Kingdom? Thinking that these two people were afraid that the road was far away and unwilling to lead the way, they were dissatisfied, so they insisted on going to the king of Han to try: "I am waiting for the queen's order, how can I give up here halfway?" β
Liang Mao Guan Ning and the others saw that Nan Shengmi and Urban Niu Li were so persistent, so they didn't say anything, after all, if they didn't let them go to see the Central Plains in person, how could they let them die? So he asked Fang Taishou to prepare the boat, let them drift across the sea, and settle in Qingzhou.
Seeing the big Han's boat, Nansheng Mi and the others were instantly shocked, this was simply too grand compared to their small light boat! Now they feel that Liang Mao and the others are deceiving them, in a country with such a large ship, there is still a war breaking out, I'm afraid it's not enough to eat!
The time of drifting at sea is quite old, but from our country to Chenhan, they have become accustomed to the time of wandering at sea; After a few days, Nanshengmi finally saw the land, and was immediately ecstatic, thinking that the capital of the Han Dynasty was not far away.
However, after the landing, it was difficult to find that everything was not difficult, it was just a place called Qingzhou, and it was nearly a thousand miles away from Xuchang, the capital of the Han Dynasty, which couldn't help but make them dumbfounded, thinking that their country was only a hundred miles away, and it was thousands of miles away from the royal capital, so how big is their country?
It is no wonder that those who have been to the Central Plains are full of praise for the Central Plains, and this place alone is enough to surprise them.
This time, with the escort team sent by Liang Mao, Nan Shengmi and the others also saved a lot of effort to ask for directions, after all, the more inland they went, the more no one understood the Japanese language, and it really became a dilemma at that time.
Everyone marched all the way to the west, passing through one city after another, and each time they arrived at a city, Nanshengmi and the others thought that they had arrived at the capital of the Han Dynasty, because those cities were too big and too big, much larger than their royal capitals; But when they learned that it was just a small county town, they couldn't help but look weird.
The people in the city ploughed the fields and spindling, and the soldiers practiced martial arts, all of which seemed to be done for Nanshengmi and others. I have to say that this trick is really effective, after seeing the vast land and resources of the Central Plains, the culture of the Central Plains and the appearance of the soldiers make them quite yearning.
The two zebra cloths they held in their hands looked inferior to the cloth woven by ordinary people, which made them instantly feel that this kind of cloth was not only shabby, but simply a shame on the country.
But at the same time, because Nanshengmi and others took the route of Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yanzhou, and Yuzhou, they met a lot of bandits, and the escort army lost a lot.
At this time, they also realized that not all of the so-called big countries in the Central Plains are good, and they have anti-thieves and wars like their own countries.
However, the culture of the Central Plains is indeed worthy of their admiration, and if they can build such a country, they can simply leave a history of glory! β¦β¦ It is difficult to lift rice so thought.
The road to Xuchang was quite tortuous, and when they arrived in Xuchang, the original 500-strong escort team had only more than 100 people left, and suffered heavy losses; However, Nansheng Rice and Urban Niu Li were highly valued because they were snakes, and even the ten boys and girls they brought did not suffer a single loss.
Nansheng Mi was going to go directly to meet the Han Emperor, but those who guarded him laughed at him and brought him to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
At this time, people explained his confusion: "Although the emperor is the person with the highest status, the person who is really in power now is Cao Cao, the prime minister of the Han Dynasty." When you go in later, you have to prepare your own words! β
Nanshengmi suddenly realized, this is the same as their Emperor Ojin (said to reign from 200 to 310, the thief is exaggerated), he has no real power, and even those small tribes under his command can't control it, and the most powerful person is still Queen Himiko of Yamadai.
Nan Shengmi hurriedly corrected his wording, prepared the national letter, and asked to see Cao Cao with the translator on the side, and was successfully received by Cao Cao.
Cao Cao saw that he was from the Oriental Island, and his heart was full of doubts, and he asked: "I heard that there are three immortal mountains on the East China Sea, which are Penglai, Yingzhou, and Abbot, I don't know which immortal mountain the envoy came from?" β
Nansheng Mi replied honestly: "The country is far away from the East China Sea, drifting across the sea from the peninsula, I have never seen any immortal mountains, and I hope that the prime minister will atone for his sins!" β
Cao Cao couldn't help but feel disappointed when he heard this, after all, the three immortal mountains that existed in mythology were enough to arouse his curiosity, and when he learned that the country of Nansheng Mi and the others was overseas east of Lelang County, he couldn't help but feel a little interested.
Cao Cao received the letter of state, although he did not know what the inexplicable words on it were.
Nanshengmi took out the spotted cloth and the boys and girls prepared by his own country, and said with a slight apology: "This time I came to your land, I know the remoteness of my country, this spotted cloth is the highest gift that my country can come up with, it is not as good as the textile cloth of your country, and I hope the prime minister will forgive me!" β
It is difficult to promote Mi's humble words, which won Cao Cao's favor, besides, the Heavenly Empire is actually very happy to see that other countries are inferior to themselves, after all, this proves their superiority.
So Cao Cao ordered the spotted cloth, and sealed the difficult Shengmi and the city Niu Li to lead the good generals, and the two thanked them; Cao Cao also planned to write a letter, and gave back five horses of dragon brocade from the state of Jiangdi, ten pieces of crepe corn (animal skin textiles), 50 horses of Qianjiang, 50 horses of blue silk, 50 horses of white silk, 8 taels of gold, 2 knives of 5 feet, 100 bronze mirrors, and 50 catties of pearls and lead pills, so as to show that the Central Plains is rich and rich.
Such a rich reward caught the two of them off guard, and they bowed to thank them one after another, forgetting the purpose of their mission. Cao Cao stayed in the house and did not report to Liu Xie.
But Liu Xie is the Son of Heaven after all, so naturally someone reported this matter to him, Liu Xie was furious, thinking that he couldn't even meet with foreign envoys! Just as Xun Gang was about to get up and go to Jingzhou, Liu Xie urgently summoned Xun Gang, explained the matter to him, and asked him to go to Cao Cao for justice.
"Dead Star, do you think this Cao Cao is like words? It is enough to deprive me of power, and I can endure it; But this time, a foreign envoy came to visit, and he actually detained it without authorization and did not report it to me, which is really hateful! β
Xun Gang didn't know which country's envoy it was, so he persuaded: "The emperor's brother Hugh is going to make a big fuss, Cao Cao is arrogant, and he will bring humiliation on himself...... By the way, which country's envoy is that, the foolish brother can go to Cao Cao's mansion to pay a visit. β
"Hmph, that's a country on an island in the East China Sea, and it's said to be a Japanese country! I don't care about this small country's tribute, it's just that this Cao Cao is too arrogant and I can't tolerate it! β¦β¦ Brother Xian, why do you have such an expression? β
Xun Gang's expression has become quite wonderful since he heard about the Wa Kingdom, and the subtle changes in his expression make it impossible to see whether he is shocked or angry, but the flushed face and the eyes that seem to be on fire are really not like the expressions that Xun Gang could make before.
"What the royal brother just said...... Which country is it? β
Wa ...... Well, Wa Guo, don't say I forgot! National hatred and family hatred, two thousand years ago, I will return to you together!
