Long Er saw that everyone seemed to understand it, but Sima Dan's words had been tried to be simple and popular, such a complex matter, only a long time of education can be understood, fortunately, there has just experienced a life-and-death battle here, and the people have also become enlightened a lot, and now the most important thing is to communicate deeply with the leaders of various clans.

So Long Er invited the elders to stay and go to the palace to continue the detailed discussion.

The Persians, who were the most knowledgeable of all the tribes in the city, because their caravans often reached the western countries, were invited to be amazed and delighted, and gladly accepted.

The Xiongnu were originally a tribal living group, and it was normal for them to have tribal affairs discussed by everyone, and their recognition of the king's power in their hearts was based on the logic of mutual benefit, so it was easy to accept. This is just like being elected by the tribal leader, which was a normal thing in ancient times, so they also understood Sima Dan's words very well.

Sima Dan originally thought that the Dayue nobles would be the most difficult to accept the reform, because they were afraid of losing their absolute dominance.

But they are very supportive.

Uncle Ji Xiangxing said: "In the past, when the king passed on the throne, he was always worried, but now he doesn't need to, and our property is still the same, we used to use gold and silver to gather soldiers, and we always think that one day they will rob us of our treasures. Can the Yueshi people fight? Now, if one of the consuls could be noble, it would not be too disadvantageous to us, and wouldn't it be cheaper to have more people in the senate with some gold and silver? ”

Some nobles said: "Although we used to be called nobles, they respected us only because we were able to maintain their lives, and if one day we could not satisfy them, they would riot miserably, and look at how strong the palace was, and then we would know how afraid we were, and we could sleep peacefully at night." ”

The biggest obstacle is actually the Han people, these aboriginal farmers don't understand what Sima Dan said, and they have no interest, they only know that they don't object. It was also difficult to elect representatives from different clans, and some even fought as a result, killing more than a dozen people.

As for the refugees in exile in Zhaozhou Province here, Sima Dan still follows the military establishment, with the commander of a thousand as the elders.

In order to maintain the vitality of the Senate, the senators were held every ten years, so that even if the consuls were changed every two years, the stability of the government could be maintained.

After nearly a month of combing, a group of Qiuzi's envoys arrived at the slightly rejuvenated Great Moon City.

In the main hall of the royal palace, which had been converted into a senate, the envoys of the turtles looked a little unaccustomed to facing the 100 senators and the lord of Otsuki Castle who surrounded them.

The noble auspicious star, as one of the consuls, explained to the envoy the political system of Otsuki Castle.

"So should I pay my respects to the Queen or to the Ruling Lord?"

Lucky Star smiled: "You should greet all the people of the Senate, they represent all the citizens of the entire Great Moon City, with the grace of the Queen, to settle down in this city, Great Moon City is the property of the Queen, but everyone is the existence of their own free will, so do you want to pay tribute to the stones in the city, or to everyone?" The patriarchs laughed.

The ambassador looked at Garbo puzzled, and saw that the queen was also eating and laughing, and he was even more puzzled.

The queen saw Sima Dan and said in a loud voice: "If it were not for the people supporting the same country with their free will, then no matter how powerful the country would have collapsed." This is naturally what Sima Dan taught her.

The ambassador couldn't help but be speechless, this was unbelievable to him: "Then who can decide whether the Great Moon City is a friend or an enemy with Qiuzi?" ”

Sima Dan said loudly: "It's Lord Lucky Star and I, we are this year's consuls, may I ask the ambassador what kind of construction is there for the Great Moon City that has just been established from the ruins?" ”

"It turned out to be His Majesty the Prince of Jin."

"Wrong! My identity here is not the Prince of Jin, but the consul, if the Senate is unwilling, I can't speak to you on behalf of Dayue City! There was another burst of laughter in the Senate.

"My intelligence is limited, so that the adults of Dayue City laugh, however, we Qiuzi still greet you, our noble king, there is indeed a Jianyì, just a month ago, Qiuzi was given the title of the Rouran Empire and became the protector of the Western Regions, and the places under his jurisdiction include Dayue City and dozens of countries in the entire Western Regions, and today I am here to announce our policy."

Lucky Star frowned: "We are all free people, and we are not under the rule of the Rouran Empire. ”

"Our Qiuzi was not originally under their rule, but the Rouran Empire is an empire from the grassland, and the great powers of the Yellow River have mother-like power over the Western Regions, and the people of our desert oasis are from these two places, so now that the Rouran Empire is prosperous, it is normal for us to rely on them."

"Humph! Not long ago, you asked us to help you defend Rouran, Taji and many of the Qiuzi soldiers also died here, and now you have to rely on Rouran, what does this have to do with us? A chubby elder asked angrily.

The ambassador was stunned, he didn't expect someone in the Senate to suddenly ask such a question, he immediately understood that what he had to face now would be hundreds of people's questions, so he didn't hesitate: "The position of the country, the vertical and vertical links are very normal, since we have inherited the title of the Rouran Empire, we have the right to rule the entire desert oasis, but the king of Qiuzi, out of brotherhood and friendship, will only ask Dayue City to recognize our governing power, and will not ask you to pay tribute." ”

The elders in the Senate were all people who had experienced a life-and-death battle and survived, and when they thought that someone wanted to ask them to surrender with a few words, they couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion, and in the blink of an eye, they shouted and cursed, and they were in a mess.

Sima Dan stood up, the sleeves of his white robe as an archon were embroidered with purple and red color patterns, looking majestic: "Everyone listen to me, Qiuzi chose to temporarily succumb under the pressure of Rouran's powerful army, and they can't be blamed, if Helian accepted our conditions, we might also pay them tribute money and treasures, our countries in the Western Regions are all small countries and widows, and now we can't compete with Rouran." ”

"According to the Archon, we should also surrender?"

"No, I'm just saying that I understand Qiuzi, because they don't have the same unity as us, and the king of Qiuzi is afraid of Rouran's attack, and he has to beware of the dissent of his own people, and even his subordinates, so how can he have foolproof resistance to foreign enemies? In fact, if the countries of the Western Regions unite, how can they be afraid of other empires? So I want to lead an embassy to Qiuzi to persuade them, Your Excellency, the cavalry of the Rouran Empire is still under your gates? ”

The ambassador couldn't speak eloquently in his belly at once, and he couldn't help blushing, but Sima Dan's question had to be answered: "The Rouran cavalry has retreated and is now heading for Persia." ”

Sima Dan looked up to the sky and smiled: "Haha, elders, I believe that Qiuzi will definitely form an alliance with us!" ”

"Why?" Everyone looked at each other, and some people whispered about it.

The ambassador sneered: "Didn't I come today to include you in our covenant on the orders of the Rouran Khan?" ”

"Your Excellency, if the Rouran cavalry suffered a defeat in Persia, do you think they will come back and regain face from you? In a more brutal way...... Don't you understand? If they fail to attack Persia and use you as food and fodder, how will the tribal lords give an account to their subjects? They can only frantically loot other countries to recover the war losses, who do you think they will look for? ”

******

Sima Dan led two hundred divine armor soldiers, bypassing Gaochang and Yanqi, and arrived at Qiuzi.

The place where Dayue City is located is the first big city outside the Yumen Pass, and its north is the power of the Gaoche people, but at this time, the Gaoche people also submitted to the rule of Rouran and became a member of the Rouran Alliance, enjoying the same status as the Xianbei and other clans.

Sima Dan bypassed Gaochang and Yanqi from the north, and the road to the west was the same as that of Rouran, but the nomadic tribes encountered along the way did not have any unfriendly behavior towards Sima Dan and his party, because Sima Dan and his party did not drive cattle and sheep to eat the grass on the pasture they occupied, and no one would fight for anything they had to do, and Sima Dan's line was definitely not like a merchant with any treasures.

Some high-roller people also warmly sent mare's milk and goat's milk to show their friendliness.

Qiuzi also opened the gates of the city to welcome the mission led by Sima Dan, because Sima Dan also returned home with Taji's ashes.

******

Carodo, the king of Guizi, was Taji's cousin, and he looked much like Taji, but he had white hair and was over fifty years old.

At this time, Kalodo was a Buddhist country, and Carodo himself was not a devout believer, but for Taji's death ceremony, Carodo still had to be sincerely afraid and preside over the ceremony.

It wasn't until the first qiē was completed that Carodo officially met Sima Dan.

Sima Dan saw that on the main hall of the palace, the king sat in the center, and the other princes and ministers also had their own seats, but they sat face to face with the king, unlike the senate in Dayue City, everyone sat around a rotunda, even the king and the consuls sat at a point in the circle like everyone else, symbolizing their equal status in the senate.

There is still a difference between the king and the ministers of Qiuzi, which is the same as that of the Great Jin.

Sima Dan knew that these princes and ministers were originally standing to discuss politics, and it seemed that because of Sima Dan's arrival, King Qiuzi changed this way.

Sima Dan sneered in his heart: "You want to use the wheel war to defeat me? It's a pity that you can't learn the spirit of our Senate no matter how much you study. ”

King Qiuzi's eyes were blazing: "I listened to what his subordinates said, and I know that the ambassador is not only an archon, but also the prince of the Great Jin, I don't know what the prince can teach me?" Does the crown prince know that the city lord of the Great Moon killed the envoy of the Rouran Alliance that day, so the ambassador is here, and he has lost his true right to security? If the Khan of Rouran learns that the crown prince is here, I can't help it. ”
