Chapter 225: Princess Xihuaguo
The envoys of the Xihua Kingdom thought about it, they were different from what the Tanglin Kingdom had prepared, and what the Tanglin Kingdom had prepared was the same as last year, and there was nothing new at all!
They prepared Western musical instruments.
And he didn't even try, and he couldn't explain to the khan when he went back.
The envoy of the Xihua Kingdom stood up and said to Emperor Nalan: "Your Majesty, the performance of your country and the Tanglin Kingdom just now is really wonderful!" It's just astounding! Your country is indeed full of talents. His accomplishments in etiquette and music are unparalleled! Today, our princess of Xihua Kingdom also challenged the Nalan national musician. ”
"In order to add a little excitement, if we lose the Xihua Kingdom, we will pay an additional hundred good horses to your country every year! If we win, we won't have to pay tribute to the good horses in the future, okay? ”
The emperor snorted coldly in his heart, he was really not afraid of death: "Envoy of Xihua Kingdom, since you want to be excited, then the color head should be bigger!" Otherwise, it's not fun! If our Nalan Kingdom wins, you Xihua will pay tribute to 500 good horses! And how about dividing the country of Xihua and the city of Qinna to us? That's exciting! ”
When he was young, he had been to the northwest border, and he looked at the grassland, and the herds of cattle, horses and sheep, not to mention how envious he was.
It's a pity that Nalan doesn't have such a big grassland, if you take Qinna City into your pocket, then there will be a thousand miles of grassland.
How many more cattle, sheep and horses can they raise themselves every year?!
Do you still need to wait for them to pay tribute and try your best to buy it?
There were constant riots on the borders of various countries, small wars were frequent, and there were no seventeen to go, and Nalan lost seven out of ten.
He was so angry that he almost had a heart attack!
The ministers and soldiers of the Nalan Kingdom have been arrogant and lascivious for too long!
If they don't become stronger on their own, they will surely perish in less than 50 years!
He's going to turn this around in his lifetime!
Otherwise, you won't be blind!
When the envoy of Xihua heard this, he hesitated.
Losing a piece of grassland, such a big thing, is not something that he can decide as a messenger!
If he agrees and loses, he will become a sinner for the ages in Xihua!
The envoy sent by Xihua this time looked at the princess beside him.
"Princess, what should I do? Than that? He said in Western Chinese.
Hua Qian, the princess of Xihuaguo, pretended to look in a certain direction casually.
Someone's left ear moved in that direction.
Left ear movement, can move.
Hua Qian's eyes fell on the county lord of Hui'an, and she whispered a bunch of words that everyone couldn't understand.
The envoy of the Northwest Country nodded after hearing this, and then said to Emperor Nalan: "Emperor Nalan, our princess said to accept the challenge. But a city is too precious as a lottery!
Therefore, the rules of the competition are set by us, and the difficulty of the competition will be increased a little! You can only send one musician to fight against our three musicians in Xihua.
The same is the principle of two wins in three sets! But if Nalan loses, we don't have to pay tribute every year in Xihua, and Nalan gives us 100,000 catties of grain every autumn after autumn, how about it? ”
The emperor just wanted to agree, but Hua Qian, the princess of Xihua Kingdom, took the first step and said: "And if we win Xihua Kingdom, King Jin of your country needs to be friendly with me!" ”
As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar!
King Jin and her are close?
This Princess Hua Qian is too shameless!
Everyone looked at King Jin.
Nalan Jinnian's face is dark!
Guo Mingyan was the first to shout: "This can't be!" King Jin has already made a marriage! ”
"Oh? If you are married, who will you marry? Miss Guo is trying to talk about you? But as far as I know, you have already renounced. And aren't you married to your emperor Sun now? Princess Hua Qian was surprised.
The emperor's grandson had a black face.
Guo Mingyan, what do you want to do!
Shame on him!
Guo Mingyan opened her mouth and blushed, wanting to say that she should not marry the grandson of the emperor, she would only marry King Jin!
But when she met her grandfather's warning eyes, and found that too many people were looking at her, she shut up.
Hua Qian then spoke: "If Emperor Nalan accepts, then invite a musician to come out and compete!" ”
Today, they are preparing three Western musical instruments to be played.
As the saying goes, "there is a specialization in the art industry", a good flute player may not be able to play the piano, and a drummer may not be able to blow the flute!
Western musical instruments were originally the "secret weapon" they thought of to challenge the Nalan Kingdom this year.
They also sent someone to find out before, and there was no musician in Nalan Country who was learning Western musical instruments, and that person also moved his left ear just now.
Besides, Hua Qian felt that the Nalan Congress would send the county lord of Hui'an, who had just beaten the Donglin musician, to compete.
The girl looked to be only eleven or twelve.
At such a young age, it is obvious that it took a lot of effort and time to learn the piano skills.
It is impossible to learn other musical instruments, let alone Western ones?
After weighing the pros and cons, Hua Qian felt that the victory was in hand!
Nalan Jinnian snorted coldly: "Then don't compare!" Who is rare? ”
The emperor: "So it's not comparable, hehe!" ”
He was all angry, how could one or two of them think about his seventeenth emperor brother!
This time he absolutely couldn't agree, the consequences of the last decree to give marriage were too miserable!
The envoy of Xihua was in a hurry, how could the princess assert herself?
This time, the task is not to pay tribute to Nalan in the future.
The princess is good at everything, but she is too beautiful, and she has a few noodles in the princess's house, all of whom are as beautiful as flowers.
He hurriedly smiled and said, "Our princess is joking!" According to what I just said, if your country wins, we will assign the city of Qinna to the Nalan country, and add 500 more war horses every year, if we win, we will not have to pay tribute every year in the future, and your country will give us 100,000 catties of grain after autumn every year! How is it? ”
Nalan Jinnian didn't fall for him: "What are the rules of the game?" ”
"Let's pick three musicians to come out and compete with your country. Every musician plays a different instrument, and as long as the musician in your country can win two games, your country wins! ”
Nalan Jinnian raised an eyebrow: that is, they had to pick a musician who was proficient in at least two instruments at the same time to win.
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu couldn't help but scold his father in his heart! The emissaries of these subjects are getting tougher and tougher!
It is said that there is a specialization in the art industry, and how can a person who is proficient in two musical instruments at the same time be better than a person who specializes in the same instrument?
Who to look for? The county lord of Hui'an is so young, it is impossible for him to be proficient in two musical instruments.
The Xihua envoy continued: "How is it? A big country can't find someone who is proficient in two musical instruments, right? ”
Li Wanwan smiled at this time: "How is it possible!" Our Hui'an county lord is versatile, and he should know a little bit about any musical instrument! Your Majesty, let the county lord of Hui'an go up! ”
Guo Mingyan also smiled and said, "That's right! The piano skills of the county lord of Hui'an just now made the Tanglin envoy defeated without a fight and took the initiative to admit defeat! Let the Xihua envoy have a look! ”
……
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu looked at Wen Wan: "Wen Wan, do you have confidence in going up?" ”
Wen Wan lowered her head and whispered: "My lord, I can only play the piano, and I don't know anything else!" ”
She will never be ashamed of the warmth!
She had already lost just now, and it would be miserable to lose again this time! Everyone will think that she is a waste of fame.
Let's push the warmth up and be embarrassed! Wen Wan lowered her head, and a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.
