The founding ceremony is actually the most boring.

Especially the founding ceremony of this era.

There is no fancy work, and the whole process is boring and boring.

At least Li Chengqian is really idle!

Of course, for others, it wasn't that boring.

After all, it's not easy to see this kind of excitement in this era.

There is not much pastime, so everyone cherishes it.

Especially if there is such a military parade, even the missions of various countries have seen it fresh.

However, everyone also understands that this is the Ming Dynasty court showing its military strength.

After all, this land has never been peaceful since ancient times.

Without sufficient deterrence, the future will only be more peaceful.

Again, what a country needs most is not the respect of others, but awe!

At least that's what Li Chengqian thinks, and at this founding ceremony, he just wants to take this opportunity to tell everyone that no matter what kind of enemy the Ming court faces, it is not afraid of a battle.

Even if this enemy is Datang!

"Ladies and gentlemen, can my Ming soldiers still enter your eyes?" Li Chengqian said with a smile.

Duan Lun shook his head when he heard this, but still said: "The armaments of the Ming Dynasty are now famous all over the world, and the resentful army has the reputation of being a strong army, how can it just be in the eye?" ”

Hearing him say this, Li Chengqian also hehe.

On the side, Ashina said with a smile: "Tang Envoy's words are wrong, the armaments of the Ming Dynasty are not only famous in the world, but it is not an exaggeration to say that they are the best in the world."

Even if it is Datang, only in terms of ordnance innovation, it may not be comparable to Daming.

As for the resentful army, after more than a year of expedition, it does have the reputation of a strong army, but the growth of the Western Army is also highly anticipated.

That's it, not to mention the young army that has the posture of a strong army. ”

Since he led the Western Turks to submit to Li Chengqian, he naturally had to express one or two at this time.

Duan Lun was unwilling to admit the excellence of the Ming Dynasty, so he would push it along with the water.

Of course, this is also only a matter of position.

As the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, how could Duan Lun grow the morale of others and destroy his own prestige?

Even from his personal standpoint, the Ming Dynasty does have a lot of merit, but from the standpoint of Datang, he can't express his position.

Don't forget, what is Li Chengqian's identity.

"How long has it been since your envoy has been to the Tang Dynasty?" Duan Lun immediately smiled and said, "How do you know how prosperous the Tang Dynasty is today?"

How exquisite is Datang's craftsmanship?

A little ordnance, how can it stump me in the Tang Dynasty! ”

"The last time I went to Datang, it was more than ten years ago." Ashina smiled and said, "I don't know how Emperor Tang is doing lately?" ”

He and Duan Lun are not strangers, when he was a brother and brother to Li Er in Chang'an, Duan Lun was not a secretary of the Ministry of Industry.

When Duan Lun heard this, he also smiled and said: "Your Majesty is worried, Your Majesty was also deeply worried when he heard what happened to your envoy, but after all, it is your country's family background, and Your Majesty is not good to say." ”

Hearing him say this, Ashina didn't say anything more.

He understood the off-string sound in Duan Lun's words.

Not only him, but also the envoys of other countries understood, and immediately shook their heads and smiled bitterly.

Whether it's Datang or Daming, to put it mildly, people are really a family.

"Your Highness, the banquet is ready." At this moment, the eldest grandson rushed over and said softly.

Today is the founding ceremony of the Ming Dynasty, and the banquet is naturally indispensable.

Li Chengqian nodded, turned to everyone and said, "Everyone, today is a good day for my Ming Dynasty, and you should not get drunk or return." ”

"That's nature." Everyone bowed in unison.

For the founding ceremony of the Ming Dynasty, everyone has nothing to say.

What songs are sung on the mountain, in the final analysis, they are just guests, and on this mountain, they naturally have to follow Li Chengqian's rules.

After a while, everyone came to the banquet.

When you get here, there are more people.

In addition to the missions of various countries, there are also officials at all levels of the Ming Dynasty, and even many family members of officials.

For example, the mother of Chebi Holi, the wife of Ihara Xi, and so on.

Of course, today's protagonists are not them.

But for them, it's also satisfying.

Speaking of which, this kind of banquet is the most complicated, and everyone's seating ranking cannot be sloppy.

For example, on the main table, there are Li Chengqian, Qi Bi He Li, Pu Xiruo, plus Duan Lun and Ashina Ni.

Originally, there was no Ashina mud, but he suddenly led the Western Turks to join the Ming Dynasty, and Li Chengqian asked Changsun Chong to add it to the main table temporarily.

As for the missions of other countries, they are not qualified to be at the Lord's table.

There's no way, Li Chengqian's identity is here, how many people are qualified to drink and feast with him?

Even Pu Xiruo didn't arrange a seat, after all, he presided over everything today, but since Ashina was on the main table, he naturally had to have someone to accompany him.

You can't let Li Chengqian accompany you personally, right?

But everyone else has arranged it, and only Puxiruo has the same status, which makes Puxiruo pick up a bargain.

"Come, drink the wine in the cup together, and congratulate the opening of the Ming Dynasty!" After everyone was seated, Li Chengqian got up, picked up his wine glass and said.

For a while, more than 100 people stood up in unison, raised their wine glasses and said, "Congratulations to Daming!" ”

"!"

"!"

For just a moment, I heard only the crisp clinking of glasses, and the sound of throat gurgling.

What kind of wine banquet is no wine?

After a glass of wine, Li Chengqian said again: "You are free, today is a good day for my Ming Dynasty, you can come from afar, this king will only say a word!" Eat well, drink well.

Zhongqing's family! Entertain the envoys of various countries, don't let people think that my Ming court has neglected anyone. ”

Listening to Li Chengqian's very reckless tone, everyone smiled and said, "Your Highness, don't worry, we will definitely have a good time today." ”

Although Li Chengqian's words lost a bit of the king's spirit, he received a little more earthly energy, at least in their ears, it was very comfortable.

At that moment, everyone started a new round of cup change with the help of people with hearts.

Wine is a very interesting thing.

Before drinking, one or two were gentlemen, but after a few cups, not to mention exposing their true nature, they finally revealed a bit of their true temperament.

After a while, the entire banquet hall was in chaos.

There are really two more drinks, which is not enough to drink.

There are also a group of people who are actually sober and deliberately pretend to be drunk.

In short, there are hundreds of people, all kinds of birds, all kinds of birds.

Li Chengqian didn't drink any more than just one drink at the beginning, but quietly watched everyone's lively conversation while eating.

It is said that it is a banquet, but in fact, it is an exchange and communication between the Ming court and various countries.

Of course, these naturally don't need him.

At best, he chatted with Duan Lun and Ashina Ni for a few words.

As for the others, not deserved!

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Duan Lun said to Li Chengqian with emotion: "Your Highness is indeed a genius in the sky, in just one year, he has such a good achievement, not only the old man, but no one in the entire court expected it."

Looking at His Royal Highness, the old man always felt that he was a little older. ”

After drinking two glasses of wine, Duan Lun also sighed.

To tell the truth, for more than a year, although Li Chengqian was not in Chang'an, the pressure on their Ministry of Industry was the greatest.

Whenever there is something new in the Ming Dynasty, he Duan Lun will go to see it as soon as possible.

Speaking of which, in the past year, the Ministry of Industry of Datang has actually only done one thing, that is, to fight with the Ministry of Industry of the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, that's what they think.

Duan Shangshu laughed. Li Chengqian smiled when he heard this, "This king has gone all the way to today, it has taken more than a year, to be honest, this king has slacked off."

If it weren't for the slack of this king, not to mention faster, at least this road would not have to be so hard.

Presumably Duan Shangshu has also heard that at the beginning, the king led thousands of soldiers and horses to defend the city of Douhe, but if there was a slight mistake, the Ming court could collapse at any time. ”

Speaking of this, Li Chengqian shook his head and said, "It's not easy, you only see today's founding ceremony of the Ming Dynasty, and the king has infinite scenery, but as the saying goes, I just saw the dog eating meat, but I didn't see the dog being beaten."

In this world, if you want to do something, where is it so easy. ”

He said this sincerely, in fact, it was not easy to come along the way.

However, he said that the main purpose of these is that he still doesn't want everyone to think that his success today is really as smooth sailing as everyone thinks.

In other words, he's selling miserably.

Selling miserably is a technical job.

It's just that it doesn't matter if he sells badly, hearing Duan Lun's ears will become another taste.

What do you mean, you have been slacking off after more than a year of annexing the entire Tuyuhun?

According to you, if you don't slack off, you can be a little faster?

People are like this, they can only see dogs eating meat, but they can't see dogs being beaten.

"It's not easy." Ashina Ni said a fair word on the side, "When I heard that His Royal Highness risked his life and suppressed Dayan Mang's tens of thousands of troops with thousands of soldiers and horses, to be honest, the minister also felt incredible when he heard it.

According to the situation at that time, if something really went wrong, it would not be the end of today. ”

"Who's to say it isn't." Qibi He Li also said on the side, "If Dayan Mang's Junction didn't have a plan and insisted on going out of the city with tens of thousands of troops, it would really be a matter of who would lose and who would win in this battle." ”

Speaking of this, the officials of their Ming Dynasty were all scared for a while.

At the beginning, as long as Dayan Mangjiebo went out of the city, it would inevitably be another result.

Of course, these two people are just cooperating with Li Chengqian to sell miserably at this time.

They can understand this.

Anyway, Li Chengqian has grown up too fast this year, which has already made the Tang Dynasty and the emperor of the Tang Dynasty feel the pressure, and at this time, the necessary miserable sales are also very particular.

How can I say this?

It's very interesting, even if Li Chengqian didn't encroach on the interests of those guys in Datang, but you are too smooth, these guys, including Li Er, want to beat you up or two.

From their standpoint, this kind of beating is called cultivation.

Of course, they are not going to admit that it is envy and jealousy.

Otherwise, why would Li Er connived at Tuyuhun to destroy Li Chengqian's Ming court?

Didn't you just want him to suffer?

It's just that Li Chengqian is unwilling to suffer this loss.

Duan Lun also knew in his heart about their careful thoughts, and immediately smiled and said, "In the end, His Highness is still amazingly bold!" In that case, they all dared to sing an empty city plan under the noses of Murong Fuyun and Dayan Mang.

This has changed Dayan Mang's wave, and he has long been in chaos. ”

He has also been here for two days, and in the past few days, he has also asked someone to inquire about the details of the original war.

Sometimes, he had to admit that Li Chengqian did have a foundation for success.

"Duan Shangshu, don't boast." Li Chengqian said with a smile, "This king is a few catties and a few taels, and this king is the most clear."

In the final analysis, there are many external reasons for winning this battle.

Not only that, but this king also made a lot of small actions that could not be put on the table. "For those officials of the Tang Dynasty, Li Chengqian is also a clear man in his heart.

His show of favor this time was not only to sell miserably, but also to win the support of hundreds of officials in the Tang Dynasty.

Those guys in Datang, he knew that if he behaved too toughly, it would definitely backfire. And if he is a little more humble, it will be good for him to inherit the great treasure in the future, but he can't see it good now.

"This still shows that Your Highness has a good plan." Duan Lun continued to laugh.

On the other side, Lu Dongzan, the envoy of Tubo, saw that they were chatting hotly, and immediately smiled at Yi Yuanxi: "Yi Shangshu, this time the Ming Dynasty destroyed its country in a war and established the status of the overlord of the Ming Dynasty on the plateau, which should be gratifying."

In the future, Yi Shangshu will only rise, and I still have to rely on Yi Shangshu. ”

For the Ming Dynasty, there are actually several voices within Tubo.

It's just that their young man Zampu, who is comparable to Li Chengqian, can still suppress these voices, and the most important purpose of his trip is to finalize the batch of ordnance in the Ming Dynasty.

"Your envoy laughed." Yi Yuanxi said with a smile, "The old man is just a worker, where is it worth relying on the noble envoy, as long as the noble envoy is satisfied with the hospitality of my Ming royal court." ”

Regarding Tibet, Yi Yuanxi has no good impression.

Don't forget, it was Subi who committed the border before, although it was Subi who committed the side, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is the plan of Tubo.

"I'm a good book." When the envoy of Subi heard this, he also smiled and said, "I don't have so many flowery intestines, come, do it, and the minister will congratulate Daming!" ”

He really couldn't say anything pretty, so he just used wine to talk about things.

When Yi Yuanxi heard this, he immediately raised his wine glass and drank a glass with the Suvi envoy.

On the other side, the envoys of Goguryeo and the envoys of the Wa Kingdom were not idle.

Both of them turned their gaze to the envoys of the countries of the Western Regions.

They were also curious, why did the countries of the Western Regions suddenly choose to fight back?

If it weren't for the temporary rebellion of the countries of the Western Regions, the Ming Dynasty wanted to win this battle, at least it wouldn't be so simple.

"What do you think?" The Goguryeo envoy asked.

The object of his question was the envoy of the Wa Kingdom.

The envoy shook his head and said, "It's hard to say, I don't think those envoys from the Western Regions have any opinions, but they are quite happy." ”

On the side, Xue Yantuo's envoy also shook his head and said, "I don't understand, the countries of the Western Regions obviously have the same interests as Tuyuhun, but they betrayed Tuyuhun. ”
