Chapter 81: The Pleasant Uighur Mission
In the corner, there was a commotion in the city of Yang Tho.
A wave of camel caravans were surrounded by soldiers led by Zhang Qiukoutu, which was lengthy but neat. The characters in it all have exquisite facial features, a sharp nose bridge, picturesque eyebrows, and a lovely smile. The onlookers (the common people), but anyone with children, couldn't help but let the children ride on their shoulders and throw a green willow branch or two goose yellow frangipani flowers at them.
Nearby, the newly opened store Yaxida and his wife Nu Zhiyue have a big iron oil pot to cook all kinds of tsamba, dumplings and green lotus buns. Nu Zhiyue stiffened half of her body, clinging to the big iron chopstick, for fear that the dough of the bun would be confused by the oil, so hard! Thanks to the bell flute drum not far from the door of the store, it was very pleasant, and she said with affection: "Master, what is this drumming, it sounds strange and clear!" ”
Yashida laughed: "You are old and confused! Didn't Ayi say a few days ago that the envoys of various countries came to visit, and she couldn't pull away, so she couldn't help us open together. I looked at it from afar, and it was all camel drivers, and it must be a Uighur mission! ”
At this time, a sturdy young man came out of it, he helped Nu Zhiyue up, and forcibly grabbed the big iron chopstick. He continued to cook for her, and said with a smile: "Abba, look at what you said." Grandma heard that I was going to prepare for enlistment that day, and she was busy packing up mussels, crucian carp and reeds under the sun, so she didn't listen to it! ”
Nu Zhiyue took a breath, leaned on her waist and said, "It's still standing towards me, whoever is like your Abba, can't make up a good word!" ”
The young man named Lixing said to the two of them again: "I just leaned over upstairs to watch, and several beautiful men in narrow-sleeved green clothes tied up five or six inches of high buns with red silk, which was very eye-catching. In particular, her complexion, shining in the sun, was more delicate than the peeled reeds (turnips) that she had just picked. Although they covered their faces with blue tulle, they could not hide their faces. ”
Nu Zhiyue's eyes lit up when she saw her son, and she spilled her head and poked him in the head.
Yaxida smiled: "Do you care about the girl? ”
Ya Lixing smiled: "I am wronged!" They jumped on their companions' arms alternately, waving their hands and singing in pairs. Who doesn't stare at them with a dry eye? ”
He poked his eyes as he spoke, but the long line of camels had already drifted away and approached the main gate of the royal court.
The newcomer Cao Changlun Zangreba has been waiting for a long time, and the elites are all lined up. Seeing that the marshal was leading the people to carry heavy baggage, he hurriedly asked the head of the negative platoon to go to the Tho Xiu Hall to inform the letter.
The first envoy, Sinkikia, did not wait to descend from the ground, but first bowed his head on the hump, followed by the two Uighur retainers, Saropil and Longshu Hunt.
Zhang Qiukou was barefoot, carrying golden silver bells, jingling all the way, leading the three of them straight to the front of Yi Mu Xun and stopped.
"Ethereal letter, Atu hereby reinvigorates!" Zhang Qiu said with a straight face.
Yi Mu Xun smiled and waved back, and then said to the envoy: "The envoy works hard, leading to heavy burdens, and Yuan deeply feels the righteousness of the Khan!" ”
He and the queen Zhao Zuo are at the top.
The Uighur envoys stepped forward to the position just where Zhang Qiukou had just been. As agreed in advance, they all took off their hats and braids, and said in unison: "King Nanzhao is compassionate, and the Khan is courteous, although it is simple, but the heart is enough." There are only iron swords and silverware on the side, some of which have been used, and some of which are forged by new craftsmen. The gold phase (gold inlaid with jade beads), the brocade, the wool velvet, the cooked silk and the oblique brown and other clothes and ornaments are all handled by the princess (Uighur queen), and the queen of Pangui is the queen Zhao Zuo Xiaona. ”
The queen smiled, looked at the ethereal letter, and nodded. The appreciation for the Uighur mission is beyond words.
Duan Nuotu couldn't help but boast: "Things are small, but this etiquette of taking off your hat and braids is intended for the interior, but only for the Uighur Khan." It's rare to have such respect for the faith! ”
In less than two teas, Xinkikiya won the praise of many princes and nobles in the palace with his gentle and jade-like speech and courtesy, and his dusty complexion, and even Concubine Chen never reasoned about it.
Yimu found that Sinkikia's eyebrows were thick and dark, his blue eyes were like the opal on Wurona's head, and his thick pink lips showed that he could speak well, and his eight feet were less than seven feet, which made him think about marriage. As everyone knows, it is this idea that prompted Urona to leave one day, which is a later story.
After watching the ceremony, Zhang Qiu personally took them to Yidi Palace to breathe for a while, nourish their spirits, and go to the tea party in the next day.
