Section 114 Returning Messengers [Asking for Tickets]
Li Yuanxing gave an extremely strange order, and the guards did not understand.
Li Jing, who really saw the intention of Li Yuanxing's order, couldn't help but laugh, this King of Qin is really young. At the time of the big war, I was still in the mood to play this kind of little game. But it's a good thing, at the time of the war, the boss didn't panic and won half of the victory, and judging from Li Yuanxing's strategy, this young His Royal Highness the King of Qin has a very high mind and is very good at grasping people's psychology.
Speaking of wit!
Li Jing believes that even the eldest grandson fox will avoid King Qin, because even if he wins, he will be very tired!
Li Yuanxing didn't change his clothes, and directly called the envoy back to wait for him in the living room.
What is the costume of the Uighur ethnic group? Li Yuanxing didn't study it in detail, but the person in front of him, who was dressed differently from the Turks, saw that the other party got up and made a chest salute, Li Yuanxing waved his hand: "This king has no formal clothes, so he is sluggish." After speaking, he said to the guard: "Serve tea, use the king's tea." ”
King Qin's tea!
The Hui envoy didn't think too much, in his opinion, this was the goodwill of the King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty, and this was courtesy.
A parchment scroll was taken out of the messenger's bosom and handed it to Lu Chengqing with both hands, and the envoy said: "I am from the desert, and the Turkic Jieli is like a wolf in the steppe, and his Han slave is like a sinister fox. They are sucking the blood of our Hui, and we Huifu people are not afraid of fighting, but they are not willing to shed blood on the grassland in vain! ”
Li Yuanxing had an inexplicable excitement in his heart.
According to modern historians, the Turks were founded because of the existence of Zhao Yande. There is discord with the tribes.
Hui is not the only one, but he is the first to make a choice.
The Hui envoy continued: "I have come out with the army of the Turkic Zuoxian King, and my people and our flock are enslaved. But I still have to come out, because only when I come to Datang can I have a chance to find a friend who returns to Hui! Those sheep are the trophies of the Tang army, and I am willing to offer a gift to show our sincerity from the grassland! ”
On the sheepskin is a gift list, and the Turkic rear has belonged to the Tang Dynasty.
Then, these gifts are equal to what is owed. I will definitely give it back. The person who has the messenger's scepter, what he says, represents the entire Hui, and Li Yuanxing does not doubt the sincerity of this messenger!
Lu Chengqing wanted to open the parchment roll and show it to Li Yuanxing.
"Don't look! The mind is not the quantity! Li Yuanxing refused to look at the gift list. Let's talk about gifts and stuff. Li Yuanxing didn't take it to heart at all.
He got up and took a few steps forward. The Hui envoy also hurriedly stood up.
"This king is the King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty, the general of Tiance. This king also gives you three gifts, as long as you return with sincerity. The gift of the king, like the sun in the sky, will give you a warm winter! ”
"Thank you, King Qin, for your kindness!"
There is a gift, what kind of gift will it be, the messenger felt his heart beat faster.
"Master Lu, you go and arrange it. In the back camp, the Hui people camped independently, giving them tents, sheep, and food. And wine! Before Li Yuanxing could speak, the Hui envoy knelt down on one knee: "Thank you for the kindness of King Qin of the Tang Dynasty, thank you to the Tang Dynasty, thank you to the King of Qin!" ”
Li Yuanxing stretched out his hand to help the messenger of Hui: "Don't kneel, if you have to kneel, then what will you do in a while." Li Yuanxing's words made the Hui envoy a little confused, and he didn't understand what Li Yuanxing was talking about at all.
The tea was delivered at this time, and Li Yuanxing personally brought the cup to the Hui envoy: "Taste the tea that this king likes!" ”
The Hui people drink tea, and tea is an important material in the Hui. Eating too much meat and drinking tea can make people more comfortable. They drank brick tea, tea boiled in milk.
Li Yuanxing drank clear tea, Longjing tea.
From modern times, the ordinary glass tall cup is so precious in the eyes of the Hui envoy. The tea leaves hanging in the water in the cup are as if they have just been picked, and the emerald green tea soup passes through the glass cup, so that Hui Hui can't bear to shake the cup, and take a sip with a respectful mood.
Bitter, bitter.
But after the bitterness, there was an indescribable fragrance surrounding him, and the sweetness between his teeth and cheeks made the Hui envoy a little intoxicated.
Li Yuanxing opened his mouth at this time and said: "The first gift that this king gave you to Hui Hui is tea, you Hui Hui can buy unlimited tea from Datang, and the price is the same as the market price!" ”
The Hui envoy hurriedly put down the cup and knelt on his knees: "Hui people thank the King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty!" ”
Li Yuanxing said in his heart, okay. This time it's changed to kneeling, okay, we'll see how you can kneel later.
"Drinking tea, tea is not only a medicine, a drink, but also a culture. This tea drinking can be called Tao! "Li Yuanxing is fooling, let the Hui people learn to enjoy tea first. Li Yuanxing believes that he is sure that in one year, he will make Datang's tea output ten times higher.
As long as there is market demand, there will definitely be no shortage of people who grow tea.
The Hui envoy just nodded, he was here to seek peace, not to put forward conditions, even if he wanted to make a request, he had to make a condition after observing the current situation and the mood of King Qin of the Tang Dynasty.
"Let's talk about the second gift!" Li Yuanxing put down the teacup, and the messenger hurriedly put it down.
In terms of identity, this Hui envoy is a nobleman of the Hui medicine Luo Ge clan, and he is the younger brother of the current Hui Khan. is named Guli Ali, who is in the grassland in Hui, and is also a person with status.
But who was sitting in front of him, the King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty, Guli Ali thought that he could not be equal to the identity of King Qin.
So when Li Yuanxing put down the cup, he also quickly put down the cup, which is polite and sincere.
"Chang'an! This king wants to build a shaman temple in Chang'an. You Hui merchants also often come to Chang'an City, but there is no place to fall. Man should have reverence in his heart, man should have God in his heart, and the gods of heaven will bless his people. Hui merchants are far away from their hometowns, and they will inevitably miss their hometowns in a foreign land......"
Li Yuanxing began to flicker.
Li Yuanxing himself felt that since he studied history with the cabinet master, his eloquence was much better.
If you don't travel to the Tang Dynasty. If you travel to Europe, you can become a pope with this mouth, and there will be no surprises.
Li Yuanxing continued to speak, telling about people's feelings of being far away from home, and about people's fear of the gods.
The envoy of Hui was already stunned, first listened dumbfounded, and then turned into a whole person crawling on the ground and bowing to Li Yuanxing, this is the five-body surrender, absolutely pious kneeling!
This King of Tang Qin is really too benevolent. It is rumored that King Qin of the Tang Dynasty is from Heavenly Court.
At this time. In the hearts of the Hui envoys, Li Yuanxing is a god!
Uighur merchants can live in shamanic temples in Chang'an, pray to the gods, and return to their hometowns with their hearts.
The envoy was speechless. Stand up over and over again. Then he knelt on the ground with five bodies.
Lu Chengqing was stunned. He had thought of countless ways to negotiate.
But he can't think of the one in front of him, even if he gives him fifty heads. He couldn't think of it either.
Just looking at the actions of the envoy, Lu Chengqing knew that at this time, if His Royal Highness the King of Qin asked this envoy to die and sacrifice his life to the gods, this envoy would not hesitate at all.
Li Yuanxing continued to speak, as if he was talking about an undergraduate thesis, and he didn't notice what the Hui envoy was doing at all, Li Yuanxing raised his head, quickly sorted out his thoughts, and spoke out in an orderly manner.
Lu Chengqing didn't dare to wait any longer, not because he was afraid that Li Yuanxing would make any mistake in speaking, but because he was afraid that the Hui envoy would die of excitement.
"Your Highness, Your Highness!"
After being interrupted by Lu Chengqing, Li Yuanxing saw the Hui envoy clearly, closed his eyes, stood up, and then knelt down, the whole person crawled on the ground, stretched out his hand as much as he could, and the pious appearance made Li Yuanxing startled.
"He, what's wrong with him?" Li Yuanxing asked Lu Chengqing in a low voice.
"This ......" Lu Chengqing didn't know how to answer, Zuihou just said: "He thanks Your Highness!" ”
"Quick, sit down!" Li Yuanxing motioned for Lu Chengqing to help him, but the Hui envoy was trembling with excitement.
After Lu Chengqing fed him several sips of bitter tea, he slowly regained some calm.
Li Yuanxing was a little regretful, he thought about haode a lot of words that he hadn't said yet, and he was about to throw out that sentence just now, looking up at Mingyue's classics.
At this time, it seems that the matter of the temple should be put aside.
"The third gift of this king is for you Hui, and all Huifu people can get it. It will also make everyone have some warmth, and there is a winter with countless delicacies! ”
The Hui envoy was speechless for a long time, and his mouth moved a few times, but he didn't say a word.
Li Yuanxing didn't care what the expression of the envoy was.
In Li Yuanxing's heart, before the country and the country, interests are the first, and the Hui is a branch of the Turks, because they are oppressed, they come to the Tang Dynasty to make peace. Therefore, only interests are the eternal connection between countries.
"The third gift, wool!"
Wool!
Although the Hui envoy was speechless, he was completely confused in his heart. While confused, he was excited, because after this King of Qin made himself confused, he would definitely have a surprise.
"A sheep, wool!" Li Yuanxing said unhurriedly.
Every time he said a word, the messenger of Hui felt excited, even if he had not yet heard what the sheep was, the wool, and the nothing.
"The wool on a sheep, a penny, this king bought you back. This year, I will buy you 500,000 sheep's wool, and next year, this king will buy you 1,000,000 sheep's wool. Wool, this king buys it with copper money, of course, it can also be exchanged for what you need, such as tea, such as some porcelain! ”
Sheep! Hair! Wool!
The wool on a sheep is only a penny, and the wool on a thousand sheep can be exchanged for two baskets full of tea cakes on horseback in Datang. Wool ...... on 10,000 sheep A million sheep ...... with ...... wool on their bodies.
The five-body throw to the ground is already the highest level of kneeling. Is there any higher etiquette? Li Yuanxing said just now, this is kneeling, so how to make a big salute next, the envoy suddenly stared at Li Yuanxing, his eyes were resolute! (To be continued......)
