Chapter 744: The Kingdom of Khorasan (2)
Whenever we seek to establish a nation and submit our credentials, we have very strict regulations. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
For example, this time, the Wa State submitted its credentials and implored the Great Zhou Emperor to agree to change the name of the Wa State to Japan, in fact, it had already begun to act.
Before the Tang envoys set off, that is, at the beginning of the first year of Jiushi, the Wa State sent envoys to come.
However, at that time, because the two sides were in a tense period, the Wa State did not make a big move, but first sent people over to inquire about the situation, find a way, and test the attitude of the Great Zhou court. This temptation lasted for a whole year.
Later, the Wa State determined that the Great Zhou Emperor was happy to accept their pleas and could take the opportunity to improve relations.
So they sent an envoy to the Tang Dynasty and traveled thousands of miles to the Shendu......
Mina's attempt to establish a state in the pond is far more difficult than that of the Wa Kingdom.
After all, the Sassanid Persian kingdom has long since perished, and Mina is just a princess of a dead country, and its legitimacy and legitimacy have yet to be verified. If Mina had only settled in the pond, it would be better to say something. However, if it is a state, the scope of its involvement and the complexity of the procedures will make it more difficult than changing the name of the country. Among other things, Mina's desire to establish her legal status in Persia and obtain the same status as Tocharian and other countries was by no means a matter of submitting a credential.
Including Wu Zetian, all aspects also need to be considered.
She has to take care of the thoughts of the Anxi countries, after all, the relationship between the Great Zhou and the Anxi countries can be said to be quite close.
If they take the liberty of agreeing to Mina's statehood, will the Ansi kingdoms be resentful?
In addition, there are ten Turks under the rule of Mengchi, and they should also be treated with caution.
If Mina is a tribe and based in Mengchi, everything is fine. But if the country is founded, do the ten Turks agree?
Also, is Mina loyal to the Tang Dynasty, and what kind of changes will her country bring to the imperial court?
What kind of attitude will the Da Kou people have towards this? Once they are dissatisfied, will they start a war with the Great Zhou court, and how should the Great Zhou court respond?
And so on and so forth.
Generally speaking, if Mina wants to establish a state in Mengchi, she should first send someone to Shendu to inquire about the news and find a way, and then send an envoy to test it, and after repeated consultations and discussions, she should finally send an envoy to come.
But now, without any temptation, Mina personally led people to the Shendu......
Yang Shouwen is a political novice, but after seeing Mina's actions, he can be sure that this is an exiled princess who is even younger than him. She doesn't know anything about foreign affairs, and I'm afraid there are no such talents around her.
If so, why be so reckless?
But when you think about it, it seems normal!
With the fall of the Sassanid kingdom of Persia, the ministers who were loyal to Persia either died or surrendered to the Persians. And Mina was even more bumpy and wandered for many years, and then even had to become a yellow beard and run to Anxi as a horse thief, and how many people were available under her command.
Decades of stumbling, internal and external difficulties.
These people around Mina may be able to fight and kill, but when it comes to governing the country and security, it is far from enough.
Yang Shouwen raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Linfu.
And Li Linfu grinned bitterly, and without waiting for Yang Shouwen to speak, he said to Mina: "Mi Niangzi, I'm afraid this matter will not be easy to do." ”
Even if he knew that Mina was a princess, the word "princess" would never come out of his mouth until he was recognized by the imperial court.
Li Linfu said: "You have only been in Mengchi for more than a year, and you have tried to build a country.
Before that, you had no contact with the Imperial Court...... So far, the imperial court has not known much about you and your people. Besides, you are building a country in Mengchi, and you are very involved. It is impossible to make any promises to you until the imperial court has made a full deliberation. By the way, have you ever reported to the Mengchi Metropolitan Protectorate when you came here this time? ”
Mengchi Protectorate, is the second year of Xianqing, after the Tang Dynasty pacified the Western Turkic Ashina Helu, divided its western region, set up a capital protectorate, led the five crossbows lost Bi tribe, the governance is in the Broken Leaf City, under the jurisdiction of a total of a Governor's Mansion.
The Mengchi Protectorate was deposed in the second year of Qianfeng, and then reinstated in the second year of the vertical arch.
However, at this time, the Mengchi Metropolitan Protectorate was already under the rule of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate. Therefore, if Mina wants to build a country in Mengchi, she must first report to the Mengchi Metropolitan Protectorate, and then report to the center from the Mengchi Metropolitan Protectorate...... This is just the first step.
The next procedure, and many more, must be carried out step by step.
Li Linfu looked at Mina and said, "Mi Niangzi, after this series of steps is completed, Honglu Temple will send someone to inform you and ask you to send an envoy to come to Shendu with a national credential." At that time, it will be the time to truly canonize your kingdom......"
"So complicated?"
"It's not that complicated.
If you really want to operate it, if you have people in the DPRK, you can succeed in three or five years soon. However, with my understanding of the imperial court, with the current complicated situation in Anxi, if you want to build a country, there are many difficulties in this, and it may take more time. After all, the imperial court still needs to consult and discuss with the Anxi Kingdoms and the Wucrossbow Lost Bi tribes. ”
Mina suddenly made a bitter face and looked at Yang Shouwen.
Jeddah also listened to it on the sidelines, so he gestured and said: Son, is it really so troublesome?
Yang Shouwen nodded, ignored Mina, and asked Li Linfu directly, "Is there a faster way?" ”
"Fast?"
Li Linfu said: "The state has national laws, and the family has family rules.
Mi Niangzi If they want to build a country, they must do it step by step, how can it be achieved overnight? The most important thing is that they haven't even taken the first step now. The capital of Mengchi was the protector of the palace, and they didn't even know their idea of building a country...... Fortunately, they have not yet found a way, otherwise they may now be prisoners, and attempting to rebel is a capital crime.
But ......"
"But what?"
"Actually, the first and second steps can be omitted."
"Huh?"
Li Linfu said with a smile: "Don't you know that Brother Yang doesn't know that now the Mengchi Metropolitan Protectorate has been placed under the jurisdiction of the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate?" ”
Yang Shouwen's eyes froze, revealing a thoughtful expression.
"The best way is for the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate to directly play the center.
In this way, it is possible to save the process of inspecting the Pond Metropolitan Protectorate and the Kitaniwa Metropolitan Protectorate. Since Brother Yang is familiar with Mi Niangzi and her people, and Yang Gong is the protector of the North Court. With such a relationship, at least half a year can be spared. ”
Yang Shouwen really doesn't know that the Mengchi Metropolitan Protectorate is under the jurisdiction of the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate.
He immediately looked at Mina and said softly, "What Brother Nu said is extremely true, the country has national laws, and the family has family rules.
Mi Niangzi, if you want to build a country in Mengchi, this step must be taken. My eldest brother is my righteous brother, and I will not stand idly by when he finds me. Moreover, my father is now under the protection of the North Court, and he can also give you some care. I also have some acquaintances over there in Shattered Leaf City, so if you are in trouble, you can go and ask for help.
In short, before the official start of the imperial court, it is best for you not to make any irrational moves.
Even if the Tocharians and the Five Crossbows are lost and trouble you, you must retreat first, or seek the help of the Protectorate, and you must not start a war lightly. ”
Mina's face was a little ugly.
However, she could also hear that Yang Shouwen did not deliberately shirk, but they didn't understand anything and acted too recklessly.
"Actually, there is another way to speed up the steps."
"What's the solution?"
"Battle exploits!"
"Huh?"
Yang Shouwen looked at Li Linfu in surprise, a little bit unsure of what he meant.
Li Linfu said: "Today, the Turks in Shatuo Prefecture are in turmoil, and the Turks are ready to move.
At the end of last year, the Tibetans once again went north from Xiaobolu and raided Shazhou...... Yang Gongjin is in the north court to quell the chaos, but I am afraid that it will not be easy. ”
"Well, I know."
"Brother Yang, I heard Mi Niangzi say just now that she has nearly 100,000 clansmen?"
Yang Shouwen turned his head and looked at Mina.
Mina nodded and said softly, "Most of the nearly 100,000 people of Khorasan have followed me eastward; In addition, I have ordered people to search for those who are loyal to me in my homeland, and if they can advance eastward, they will be able to gather about 150,000 men......
At the end of last year, Wu Zhi died, and its parts were torn apart.
Jili Yuanying took the opportunity to absorb many clansmen, and there were nearly 50,000 people under his command, and if they were together, there would be almost 200,000 people. ”
"Uzis strangled?"
When Yang Shouwen heard this, he couldn't help but feel surprised, and turned his head to look at Li Linfu.
Li Linfu nodded and said, "This is Guo Yuanzhen's work." ”
Longyou Governor Guo Yuanzhen? Does he dare to kill Uzile?
As if he saw Yang Shouwen's question, Li Linfu smiled and said: "Brother Yang is not thinking nonsense, Wu Zhile died because of Guo Yuanzhen, but it was definitely not killed by Guo Yuanzhen. ”
"What's going on?"
"After the Bolu Rebellion in Anxi, Wu Zhile was greatly injured and was extremely respectful to the imperial court.
Last year, when Guo Yuanzhen went to inspect the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, Wu Zhile hurriedly went to meet him. Guo Yuanzhen Lao'er, in fact, is quite jealous of Wuzhile, and has already expressed the imperial court before, wanting the court to send troops to find trouble with Wuzhile, but failed to pass. It is estimated that Wu Zhile also heard about this, so he wanted to find Guo Yuanzhen to beg for mercy...... The old man saw that Uzhile was unwell, so he deliberately received Uzhile in the wild. In the middle of winter and October, the weather was cold and freezing, and Guo Yuanzhen insisted on pulling Wu Zhile in the snow and talking for more than an hour...... Not long after Uzile returned, he died with a whimper. ”
After hearing this, Yang Shouwen couldn't help grinning, and said softly: "I never thought that this Guo Dudu is a ruthless character." ”
"But ......"
Li Linfu said again: "There are 100,000 people in the Mi Niangzi clan, if it is in normal times, there will be trouble."
But now, Anxi is in turmoil, and the Turks are rebelling and ravaging Shatuo. And the Turgish people were also ready to move, as if they wanted to be disadvantageous to the imperial court. If at this time, Mi Niangzi can send troops to assist Yang Pingping to set Shatuo and contain the Tuqi Shi people......"
Yang Shouwen immediately understood what Li Linfu meant, and turned his head to look at Mina.
Indeed, the rule of the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate became more and more extensive.
Previously, it was originally subordinate to the Mengchi Metropolitan Protectorate under the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, but now it is also under the rule of the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate, that is to say, the entire Kunling Mountain Ancient Road is under the protection of the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate. With such a vast area, it is indeed difficult to take care of Tingzhou soldiers and horses alone. If Mina can send troops, it can indeed relieve Yang Chengyeol's pressure.
"Mi Niangzi, what do you think?"
"In this way, can we let the Great Zhou Court accept us?"
Li Linfu said: "I don't dare to say whether you accept it, but at least you can make the imperial court pay enough attention to you, so that the sage knows that you are willing to submit to the Great Zhou court." In this way, it is believed that the progress can be accelerated in some steps. ”
Mina was quite moved.
And after Yang Shouwen finished speaking, he set his eyes on Jeddah.
"Big brother, come home with me."
Jeddah was stunned, a little hesitant.
"Mi Niangzi and her servants can live here first.
It's absolutely safe here, and no one will come to look for trouble, it's better than living in the city, if nothing else, and it costs a lot. ”
"Jeddah, since Yang Jun invited, you can go with him."
Jeddah Bi said: What about you?
"We are not familiar with the place in Luoyang, and now that Yang Jun is in charge of you and me, let's follow his arrangement.
Moreover, what Yang Jun said just now, I also need to think about it. Yang Jun, if we can send troops, how should we contact the imperial court? ”
Yang Shouwen said with a smile: "What's so difficult about this, you just need to return to Mengchi immediately, and when you pass through Tingzhou, find my father to explain." ”
After hearing this, Mina no longer hesitated.
As Yang Shouwen thought, in terms of politics and diplomacy, she is a layman, and her subordinates are not particularly clear.
I thought it would be an easy task, but now it seems that she thinks a little simpler!
Before, she was at a loss and didn't know what to do.
Now, with Yang Shouwen coming forward to help, maybe he can save a lot of trouble. What's more, Yang Shouwen's power seems to be not small......
"Brother Nu, you stay and help me explain to Mi Niangzi in detail.
Big brother, come with me! Let's go have a drink and then go home...... Remember the young lady? I've got her back! ”
