Chapter 60 Are the Tang Dynasty people like this?
It was only then that this banquet with heavy business etiquette was completely over.
In other words, the meat show is coming.
Zhang Zheng prepared so many things in front of him, and he cooked it himself, and it was a music performance and a tea ceremony.
has been acting with Ju Wentai for so long, just for this moment.
Zhang Zheng got up and looked at the water surface of the Wei River, the sun was setting, and the red glow in the sky was reflected in the water of the Wei River
High in the sky, a lonely bird that has not yet returned to its nest is dancing.
Ju Wentai also got up, stood next to Zhang Zheng, and looked at Zhang Zheng's line of sight.
I only feel that the scenery in front of me is natural, like a splendid picture with heaven and earth as the background and mountains and rivers as ink marks.
couldn't help but look stupid, and muttered praise: "Good mountains, good water, good scenery." It is a big country, and it really deserves a sentence of wealth and treasure. ”
"The autumn water is the same color as the sky, and the sunset and the lonely bird fly together. Lord of the country, are the mountains and rivers of the Tang Dynasty magnificent? ”
Zhang Zheng looked at the scene in front of him and asked Ju Wentai.
"The autumn water is the same color as the sky, the sunset and the lonely bird fly together, good sentences, the Tang Mountains and rivers in Zhang County's male poems are especially magnificent."
The more Ju Wentai pondered it, the more he felt that this poem was really wonderful, and he couldn't help but turn his head, looked at Zhang Zheng's slightly immature side face and asked:
"Zhang Xiannan's poem, is it a feeling, or is it ......"
"The article is made by nature, and the magic hand gets it by chance, it's just a fluke, it's just a fluke."
Zhang Zheng replied.
Then he continued: "It's a pity, I can't see such a magnificent scenery for a few days.
Presumably, the lord of the country also knows that there was a locust plague in Shandong in the Tang Dynasty, and now it has affected Henan, Hebei and other places.
It's only early autumn, and in a few days, maybe the locust plague will spread to Guanzhong, but it's a pity. ”
"Hehe, do you have a good hand, it's another good sentence, Zhang County's man is very talented. The locust plague is troublesome, but Datang has a holy monarch and a virtuous minister, and there are talents like Zhang Xiannan, I believe that Datang will turn the corner. ”
Ju Wentai didn't know why Zhang Zheng would talk about the internal affairs of the Tang Dynasty to him, the lord of another country, and the locust plague in the Tang Dynasty had nothing to do with him.
When I couldn't figure out the reality, I had to praise it first, and then pat it a little fart.
"What is especially hateful is that now that the locust plague is everywhere, there are still people who do not think about disaster relief and the livelihood of the people of Li after the disaster.
On the contrary, for their own personal interests, they tried in vain to trap the people of Datang in dire straits, and these people turned out to be Datang's 'own family', how ridiculous. ”
Zhang Zheng's words suddenly turned intense, and the transformation was very natural, as if he was possessed by an angry youth.
Ju Wentai was caught off guard by Zhang Zheng's sudden anger.
I thought, your Datang business is my business, tell me what to do.
But he smiled awkwardly on his face: "This, hehehe, no, the Tang Dynasty is the Heavenly Empire, no." ”
After speaking, Ju Wentai suddenly reacted, I am an outsider, what are you doing with me.
Curiously asked:
"By the way, this, why did Zhang Xiannan tell me this, I'm just the lord of the country."
Before I knew it, Ju Wentai's self-proclaimed name began to change from me to me.
The implication is that I'm an outsider, so it's useless to talk to me.
Zhang Zheng did not answer Ju Wentai's words, but said:
"The lord of the country has been in Datang for more than two months, but he is still used to life in Datang"
"Uh, yes, Zhang Xian has a good memory, I have been to Datang for more than two months, in life, Datang people are enthusiastic, but it's not bad."
Ju Wentai was stunned again, Zhang Zheng's rambling way of chatting made him a little uncomfortable.
It's not about the locust plague, why did it happen to me again?
I only heard Zhang Zheng ask again:
"Then the lord of the country came to the Tang Dynasty, it should be more than just a tribute."
This made Ju Wentai a little difficult to answer, saying no, as if he had other plans for Datang, saying yes, he really wanted something.
It's just that His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty doesn't know what's going on, as if he has forgotten about his envoys who came to pay tribute.
Except for a brief meeting with the envoys of various countries when they first entered Chang'an, there was no follow-up.
The letter of state handed over also sank into the sea without any news.
Ju Wentai had no choice but to smile bitterly.
In fact, the reason is very simple, Li Shimin is too busy, because he has already been busy with all kinds of things that follow.
He was still so busy with his own domestic affairs that he was dizzy, where could he take care of the envoys of these small countries.
I had to ask them to wait first, wait for him to free his hands, and then slowly deal with the demands of these small countries.
Perhaps Li Shimin felt a little guilty in his heart, so he asked people to expand the place where the envoys of these small countries lived.
Seeing that Ju Wentai didn't talk, Zhang Zheng didn't care, and continued: "I can guess some of the lord's demands below, and I also know some inside information about the reason why the lord of the country is in Chang'an and does not leave.
And this is one of the reasons why I invited the lord of the country to come to the mansion from Chang'an for a banquet today. ”
"Oh, Zhang Xiannan has a way to make His Majesty take time out of his busy schedule to meet us and others, and agree to our request?"
Speaking of this, Ju Wentai suddenly came to his senses.
After all, he is also the lord of a country, leaving the people of a country to come to Chang'an, but he can't wait for the result he wants, to be honest, Ju Wentai's heart is already anxious.
"Hehe, there's a way."
Zhang Zheng smiled and said affirmatively.
"Please also ask Zhang Xiannan to teach."
Ju Wentai arched his hand towards Zhang Zhengyi, and the expression on his face began to become serious.
"Don't panic, and listen carefully. It's just that the lord of the country needs a small favor in this. ”
Zhang Zheng showed an expression of Zhizhu in his hand, let Ju Wentai come over with his ear, and whispered in his ear: "In ten days it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I will ask Your Majesty to go to the southern suburbs to worship the heavens, and the lord of the country only needs to ......, so that it can be done." ”
After listening to Zhang Zheng's words, Ju Wentai's face showed a strange expression, and then he looked at Zhang Zheng with surprised eyes.
Hey, what's that expression?
"The lord of the country still has some doubts, and he is still worried that this plan will not work." Zhang Zheng asked.
Ju Wentai shook his head, as if he had seen a ghost, and the expression on his face changed so quickly that Zhang Zheng was dumbfounded.
Zhang Zheng was really uncomfortable with him, and his eyes began to become unkind, and he said to Ju Wentai:
"Can the lord of the kingdom restrain the expression on your face?"
Ju Wentai finally reacted, and his current state seemed to be a little rude.
"Zhang Xiannan's forgiveness, mainly, someone told me something similar two months ago."
"Hey, who was it two months ago?"
This time it was Zhang Zheng's turn to be surprised, someone thought of it with him in two months?
In Datang, who else could have thought of using these foreign envoys to make a fuss than the unpredictable prophet himself?
Are the Tang people so?
