Chapter 126: Finally Summoned
(Thank you, book friend 151021211303579, QS Demon Dao for the reward!) )
Two days after this incident, Yeluliang didn't dare to do anything more, lest he be self-defeating again, and in the end he would be the one who was in the trap. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoAfter the Khitans and Goryeo people subsided, Chang'an City returned to its former peaceful life, revealing a prosperous scene.
In the past two days, Yeluliang restrained his subordinates and did not dare to let these high-flying Khitans go out again. Even without his instructions, these Khitans with eyes above the top would still make trouble. But now, in addition to him, there are two Khitan deputy envoys who have not been punished with rods, and the rest can only lie on the bed, unable to move.
This is actually Huang Weiyi deliberately said in advance to the officials that he would be ruthless to the Khitans, these officials originally had no good impression of the Khitans, with the secret order of the boss, how could they not be killed? Twenty water and fire sticks down, even if it is copper skin and iron bones, you will be beaten to the bone and tendons!
Yeluliang was so angry, but there was no way, who told him that he couldn't take advantage of the righteousness, and he was the one who provoked the incident first? suffered a dumb loss, and he could only swallow his anger, and he hated it in his heart.
On the third day, Lu Chengqi finally remembered them and sent Xiao Huangmen to announce the decree and summon the ambassador of Liao to discuss diplomatic matters between the two countries. When Yerhurion received the decree, he turned his head and looked at his large mission, and wanted to weep without tears. For these Khitan people who were still bedridden, Yeluliang could only admit it, took two deputy envoys, followed Xiao Huangmen, first learned etiquette in Duting Beiyi for a day, and followed Xiao Huangmen from Xuande Gate to the palace of the Dashun Dynasty the next day.
Rao is Yeluliang is from Shangjing, the most prosperous city in the Liao Kingdom, and he was also stunned by the Han palace in front of him. The red wall and green tiles, carved dragons and phoenixes, show the grace and luxury. The building materials in this are extremely luxurious, and the heavenly palace is resplendent and beautiful. On the central axis of the Xuande Gate of the main gate of the Great Inner Dynasty, the Daqing Hall of the Great Dynasty was built, and then it was the Zichen Palace. In the west of the central axis, another north-south axis is opened, there is Wende Hall in front, and there is vertical arch hall in the back. The two halls of Zichen and Wende have all looked at the court, and they all have the nature of the Japanese dynasty, and the vertical arch hall is the constant dynasty of daily affairs.
Compared with the Liao Kingdom in Beijing, Yeluliang felt that the palace in Shangjing was very cold. Even if the Dashun Imperial Palace is not big, it is not comparable to the Shangjing Imperial Palace of the Liao Kingdom. The most powerful craftsmen of Dashun gathered, lasted more than ten years, and repaired the palace five or six times, how can it be compared with a Liao country that has just stepped into an agrarian society?
Originally, Lu Chengqi, who saw the red walls and green tiles for the first time, was also a little unaccustomed. Later generations were accustomed to the Forbidden City with red walls and yellow tiles seen on TV, and Lu Chengqi really couldn't imagine that this green house was the palace of the Dashun Dynasty.
What Lu Chengqi didn't know was that before the Song Dynasty in the official history, including the Song Dynasty, the palace used tiles were mostly ink and green, and there was no use of yellow. Only from the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty did the golden tiles be used, which was in line with the meaning of the Grassland Dynasty to the golden family, in fact, in the eyes of the Chinese at that time, it was like holding a yellow head......
When it came to Zhu Chongba, the emperor who was born with mud legs, he also had a unique love for yellow, so much so that the palace in Nanjing was also made of yellow tiles. In view of Zhu Yuanzhang's being too strong, everyone did not dare to disagree, so it continued.
After Zhu Di moved the capital to Beiping, the style of the palace was also determined by his ministers, and he himself probably preferred yellow, so he continued to use golden glazed tiles, which is the origin of the red walls and yellow tiles of the Forbidden City.
Xiaohuangmen took the stunned Yeluliang and the two Khitan deputy envoys from the Daqing Gate, passed through the corridor, entered the Xuanyou Gate, and arrived outside the Chongzheng Palace. Lu Chengqi had been waiting in the Chongzheng Hall for a while.
The 12 cabinet ministers, Feng Chengping, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, the military staff and other important ministers and high-ranking officials, first greeted Lu Chengqi respectfully, and then the deputy envoy of the embassy, the cabinet envoy, and the general secretary were in place, and bowed to Lu Chengqi, and after the second bow, they bowed again.
At this time, the Liao envoy Yeluliang and other three people holding the bookcase took their positions under the guidance of Sheren (an official equivalent to the emperor's secretary), and Sheren bowed to the Khitan envoy. This sheren is the first emperor in the ninth year of the Jinshi B and other six, called Liu Geng, the word half a farmer, is considered a veteran of the two dynasties, won the trust of Lu Chengqi, promoted him to do this is the five products of the house, originally belonged to the province of Zhongshu, but after Lu Chengqi abolished the three provinces, it was not called the Zhongshu people, but directly called the people, or the cabinet people, is the cabinet ministers and the emperor between the officials.
Don't look at it as just a small Zhengwupin official, I don't know how many people covet this position. In front of the Son of Heaven, he can get the most news, and he is the closest to the Son of Heaven, except for the eunuchs, of course. The most important point is to get the attention of the Son of Heaven, and in the future, the official career will be smooth, and the smooth progress is the most basic, and the future is unlimited.
After the people saluted, the Khitan deputy envoy knelt into the bookcase to the cabinet envoy, and the pavilion envoy (equivalent to the translator of the two countries) knelt down to receive the bookcase and ascended to the palace, and the inner servants knew that after opening the national letter, it was handed over to Xu Chongguang, the first assistant of the cabinet, and Xu Chongguang presented it to Lu Chengqi, the emperor of Dashun.
Under the guidance of the Sheren and the deputy envoy of the pavilion, the Liao envoy Yeluliang and the two deputy envoys walked to the east step, and were guided by the pavilion envoy to ascend to the palace, and came to the throne of Lu Chengqi, conveying the greetings of the Liao lord to the body of Lu Chengqi, the emperor of Dashun.
After Lu Chengqi listened, he also asked the envoy of the pavilion to ask Yelu Liang how his lord Yelu Hongji was doing. After the Khitan envoy resounded, under the guidance of Liu Geng, the sheren, he descended from the east step. Then, the chief envoy and deputy envoy of the Liao State ascended to the palace respectively and made a living ceremony to Lu Chengqi.
This set is a programmed greeting etiquette, and Yeluliang and the two deputy envoys have been practicing for a day. This is the so-called court-to-court meeting, that is, the official visit relationship between the two countries, which is equivalent to the meeting of future leaders, and most of them have nothing substantive in it.
Of course, Yeluliang came with a mission, so how could he just give up. After the greetings, Yeluliang officially explained the purpose of his visit, that is, to welcome back more than 20 high-ranking Khitan generals, including Yelu Nerugu.
Lu Chengqi listened carefully to Yeluliang's half-literate and half-white Chinese, and did not react excessively. This is the most basic courtesy of being a person, whether you recognize other people's opinions or not, listen to them first.
After Yeluliang explained his intention clearly, Lu Chengqi slowly spoke: "I have heard that if someone enters other people's gardens and steals their peaches and plums, everyone will not hear about it. As for those who snatch people, dogs, pigs, chickens and dolphins, their injustice is even into people's gardens to steal peaches and plums. To enter the human stable, take people, horses and cattle, their unkindness and even people, dogs, pigs, chickens and dolphins. Now that we have attacked our country, what has the Liao State done is different from those who steal peaches and plums, dogs, pigs, chickens and dolphins, cattle and horses? ā
Lu Chengqi made full use of the arguments in the non-offensive chapter of "Mozi" to reprimand Liao as a thief and robber, and from time to time he violated the border and hit the grass valley, and completely refuted what Yeluliang had just said.
Yeluliang, as one of the few people in Liao who studied Han culture, still read the books of the Mo family. He is also familiar with "Non-Offensive Chapter", but he is coming to an end, and he doesn't know how to refute it, so he ends it with words.
