Chapter 818: Silla Emissary
Xiao Qingqing stood outside for a moment and felt that her cheeks hurt unbearably, she rubbed her face and walked back to the house, "How can Daddy still work in this weather?" ”
Li Yue was sitting at the spinning wheel, his hands and feet were also busy, the child's height was growing every day, and last year's clothes were as wide as possible.
But this year, I still can't wear it.
"You go and watch my brother"
"Oh." Xiao Qingqing reluctantly responded.
Ann always likes to pick up something and put it in her mouth, and her two-year-old brother is still babbling.
Xiao Qingqing didn't bother to take care of him, so she handed him over to Xiong Da, and then she went to play with her son-in-law.
Holding on to his collar, the bear put him in the cradle, then crouched on the edge of the cradle and yawned.
Careful Ann didn't like to sleep in the cradle, so he struggled out of the cradle with his lotus root-like hands and feet, and landed on Xiong Da again.
simply slept on the bear's back.
Zhang Yang plans to build two more rooms on this pothole, and the child will have her own room when she grows up, and she can't sleep with Xiao Wu and Xiaohui all day long, or she will sleep with the two aunts.
This child can't rely too much on adults, and other people's children's houses may be a small one.
The land in Lishan is enough, and Zhang Yang plans to build a small house for his daughter.
After digging out the soil and turning it over, the next step is to tamp it.
Zhang Yang took the hat and looked up at the dark clouds in the sky, and the next foundation work had to wait for the weather to clear and the ground for a few days before it could be started.
Aunt Wang came back with Xiao Wu and Li Lizhen, and they went to the villages and counties near Chang'an City to do a survey today, and selected a few villages and counties with large populations to prepare for the future distribution of labor services.
Li Yue took the three disciples in the library pavilion and began to plan the next matters.
Life is always a little busy, Zhang Yang made a cup of hot tea and enjoyed his retirement life that came early.
Zhang Yang opened a map, planning to wait for the family business to stabilize in the future, hand it over to the children to take care of, and go out for a walk in the future, either to the beach or to the Gobi.
Or go to Gangnam to have a look.
The rest of the DPRK and China has not yet ended, and the DPRK and China have not officially opened the court.
The emperor went to Mount Tai again, and some people said that the emperor would definitely go to Mount Tai this time to seal the Zen.
But Chang'an City arrived in February, and the emperor went to Mount Tai for a month and returned.
This time, the emperor just looked near Mount Tai, and after staying for three or two days, he returned to Chang'an City.
It is disappointing that this time the emperor still did not enshrine Zen in Mount Tai.
However, there is a new thing in Chang'an City recently, there is a small country in the south of Goguryeo, this small country is called Silla, Wen Ting has not heard from him after taking Baekje, and he has been fighting hard these days, and it seems that he is going to attack Silla.
Silla had a queen named Queen Jindeok, who wrote the letter of state in Lishu and sent an envoy named Jin Chunqiu to envoy to the Tang Dynasty.
Heo Kyung-jong was very embarrassed when he got Silla's letter of state, because the letter of state written by the queen of Silla to Tian Khan was very explicit.
The letter of state shows her admiration for Tian Khan, and even invites Tian Khan to Silla, willing to serve Tian Khan from now on.
Even the queen of Silla was willing to come to Chang'an City to become a concubine of Tian Khan.
What kind of character is the eldest grandson empress of the dynasty, not to mention that the emperor's harem concubines are all ruthless characters, if this Silla queen really enters the emperor's harem, I am afraid that she will not be thrown into the well by the concubines of the harem, or die violently for unknown reasons.
Xu Jingzong felt a chill down his spine just thinking about it, and looked at the national letter at this time, frowning, where is this national letter, this is clearly a love letter.
and the Silla envoy in front of him, Jin Chunqiu, who was extremely flattering, and the way he laughed, was really unsightly.
Xu Jingzong pushed away the chubby face that Di Renjie came up, this kind of love letter is not something that a child like him can read.
Putting down the national credentials, Xu Jingzong said: "Your envoy's national credentials will be presented to Your Majesty, I don't know what your envoy's request is." ”
"The queen is willing to serve the Tang Dynasty as the Zhengshuo, and is willing to let all the subjects of Silla practice the Tang Dynasty etiquette, the Tang script, use the Tang official uniform as my Silla official uniform, pay taxes to the Tang Dynasty according to the regulations of the Tang Prefecture and County, and follow the Tang Dynasty name, as long as the Tian Khan speaks, the queen is willing to go to Chang'an in person to serve the ......."
"That's it!"
Xu Jingzong interrupted him, and the next words ...... He didn't want to hear it.
Di Renjie listened with great interest, this Silla envoy Jin Chunqiu was about the same age as Xu Jingzong, and this envoy was very humble.
Seeing that Xu Jingzong looked reluctant, Jin Chunqiu took out a piece of silver cake, held it in both hands, and said with a smile: "This is some of the ministers' thin gifts, and I hope Xu Shangshu will not blame the ministers for their rudeness." ”
Xu Jingzong said lightly: "Are you Silla rich?" ”
Jin Chunqiu said again: "The ministers forgot to say that this silver cake was obtained from Haidong, and in Guanzhong dialect, it was obtained from the hands of the Japanese people. ”
I finally heard something I wanted to hear.
Silla was in the south of Goguryeo, and it was very close to the Unu, so the county marquis said that there were a lot of silver cakes there.
Jin Chunqiu said again: "I don't know when Xu Shangshu can take his subordinates to see the Marquis of Lishan County?" ”
Xu Jingzong bowed his head and said, "What do you see the Hou of Lishan County doing?" ”
Jin Chunqiu bowed and saluted: "The ministers heard that after the envoys of all countries have seen Xu Shangshu, they will go to see the Marquis of Lishan County, and after the envoys of all countries have met the Marquis of Lishan County, they will be able to make their respective small countries stronger, such as the current Tubo and Gaochang." ”
"Who are you listening to?"
Jin Chunqiu replied: "That person's name is Zhang Cambodia." ”
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
Di Renjie on the side coughed violently.
Xu Jingzong glanced at him, his expression returned to seriousness, and he said slowly to the Silla envoy: "You go to the post house to rest first." ”
After the Silla envoy left, Xu Jingzong said again: "Renjie, where is your friend named Zhang Khan Zhi?" ”
"What does Xu Shangshu want to do to him? Do you want to be tortured with sticks? ”
"What? Would you love to watch your friends get tortured? ”
Di Renjie laughed when he heard this, "The kid heard him say that he has always wanted to try the benefits of the Tang Dynasty torture tools." ”
This kid is a bastard boy, and so is his friend Zhang Cambodia.
The dolls in Chang'an City are more alternative than the other.
Seeing that Xu Jingzong didn't say what to do with Zhang Cambodia, but was about to leave with the credentials, Di Renjie stepped forward and asked, "What is Xu Shangshu going to do now?" ”
Xu Jingzong sighed: "The old man naturally went to submit the credentials. ”
"Can the kid follow?"
"Can't!"
Leaving Di Renjie, Xu Jingzong walked quickly into the Vermilion Bird Gate, and then walked faster, and after entering the Chengtian Gate, he saw His Majesty who had just returned from Mount Tai.
Li Shimin took Silla's national letter and looked at it carefully, and said with a smile: "It's rare for this Silla queen to be so honest. ”
Xu Jingzong said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, according to the intelligence of the Ministry of Rites, when Yuangai Suwen was in power in Goguryeo, and attacked Silla several times, many of Silla's subjects were captured, and since then Silla has wanted to send envoys to the Tang Dynasty several times, but the important path to and from the Tang Dynasty was held by Goguryeo. ”
"Now that Goguryeo has been taken and governed by the officials of the Andong Protectorate, the Queen of Silla is willing to show goodwill to the Tang Dynasty."
"Where is the messenger now?"
"Back to Your Majesty, the envoy is resting in the post house."
Li Shimin put away the national letter and smiled, Silla was willing to surrender to the Tang Dynasty, use the Tang era name, use the Tang script and the state and county system.
These words were said to the heart of the Heavenly Khan, and this kind of free merit and merit emperor wanted.
Now Xu Jingzong's mind is full of love words written by Queen Silla on the national letter, or how to say that Tian Khan has great personal charm.
It can make the heart of the Queen of Silla in the East China Sea move.
Xu Jingzong bowed and said, "Your Majesty, this envoy also said that he wants to meet the Marquis of Lishan County." ”
Li Shimin took a sip of tea and asked in a deep voice with a straight face, "What did he do when he went to see Zhang Yang?" ”
Xu Jingzong replied: "Your Majesty, in fact, when the county marquis was serving as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, he talked about the silver mines of the Japanese slaves. ”
The tea bowl in Li Shimin's hand was slowly put down, and he said in a low voice: "He was planning back then?" ”
"It has indeed been planned, and the county marquis has been waiting for the opportunity." As he spoke, Xu Jingzong handed over a piece of silver cake and said: "Your Majesty, what the messenger Jin Chunqiu said said was that this silver cake was obtained from the hands of the Japanese slaves, and he did not explicitly state his attitude towards the Japanese slaves, but according to the lower officials, the population of Silla was only 350,000, and there were often windy days in the past two years, and the sea water poured in. ”
"The population of Silla is almost withered, there is not enough food, and its people live mostly on fishing, and it is a small and barren country.
The emperor hesitated for a long time without speaking, and then took another sip of tea.
Chang'an and Silla are too far apart, judging from the national documents, this is a rare country of vassals for the Tang Dynasty, and this Silla envoy Jin Chunqiu does not look simple.
The other party has the intention to come, and it seems that the plot is not small.
With the current national strength of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin did not take Silla in his eyes at all, it was just a small country.
"You take him to see Zhang Yang."
"Whoa."
"Afterwards, you have to tell me about the conversation between the envoy and Zhang Yang."
"I understand."
Xu Jingzong was in a complicated mood when he walked out of Chengtianmen, and he didn't know what Empress Changsun would think when she learned that there was a Silla queen on the border of the East China Sea who admired Her Majesty so much.
Tian Khan definitely didn't look down on the Queen of Silla, and how Silla would use it was another matter.
Originally, the envoy of a small country came to Chang'an City, which was a trivial matter.
The next day, when Xu Jingzong was about to go to Lishan, Di Renjie was eating his morning meal and was looking through the archives of the Ministry of Rites as if no one was around.
"Xu Shangshu, do you know? The Queen of Silla was a peerless beauty. ”
"Really?"
"Then the Silla envoy Jin Chunqiu took the portrait of his queen and told others."
Di Renjie used chopsticks to pull the noodle soup into his mouth.
Since serving as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Xu Jingzong has never seen such an enthusiastic envoy, and he has spared no effort to dedicate his queen to the Heavenly Khan.
The dolls in Chang'an City are more different than the other.
The queen of Silla is also an alternative, and it is the first time that Xu Jingzong has seen such a "deep and meaningful" national letter.
When the Silla envoy Jin Chunqiu came to the Ministry of Rites again, Xu Jingzong took him to Lishan, followed by Di Renjie.
"Renjie, you can't listen when the envoy talks to the county marquis."
"The kid is provincial, and he will stand far away at that time, and he will definitely not listen to a word."
"Hmm." Xu Jingzong nodded his head, turned his head to look at the envoy Jin Chunqiu who was walking on the side, and asked, "Why does the envoy want to sacrifice the queen of Silla to the Heavenly Khan?" ”
Jin Chunqiu rode a tall horse, he rode very awkwardly, very uncomfortable, he grabbed the reins tightly with both hands, and replied: "Our Silla is barren, if the queen can come to the Tang Dynasty, she can live well." ”
Xu Jingzong was puzzled and asked, "If the queen is gone, what will happen to Silla?" ”
"Actually, the subordinate is the queen of King Jinji of Silla, and the biological mother of the subordinate is the daughter of King Jinpyeong."
Di Renjie suddenly asked, "Are you the prince of Silla?" ”
Jin Chunqiu nodded with a smile, and said, "The subordinates are willing to ascend the throne as the king of Silla under the order of the Great Tang Heavenly Khan and lead the subjects of Silla." ”
Xu Jingzong sneered in his heart, this guy is really not simple, or the morality of the Silla people is so weird.
There is a kind of meaning of usurping the throne after selling his own queen.
There is also this Jin Chunqiu's verbal conversation, how natural it is when he talks about it.
Jin Chunqiu looked at the scenery of Guanzhong, and said: "Silla is too barren, many people have starved to death this year, if the queen doesn't come to the Tang Dynasty, she will starve to death." ”
Di Renjie asked the envoy about the customs and customs of Silla.
In his words, Xu Jingzong also knew the reason, the subjects of Silla did not live well, the best coast on the border of the East China Sea was in the hands of the Baekje people, and Silla had to be exploited by Goguryeo in the early years.
Later, Goguryeo was taken by the Tang Dynasty, and Baekje was also killed by Wen Ting, and the queen of Silla felt that her opportunity had come, so she sent an envoy to come.
In Kim Chunqiu's words, the Silla people lived miserably, but their Silla queen lived like a person.
Silla lacked governance, even the writing was incomplete, and many Silla people were dressed like barbarians.
Xu Jingzong asked, "Has the envoy been to the Central Plains before?" ”
Jin Chunqiu explained: "It is the first time for Xia Chen to come to the Central Plains, and it is the first time to see such a vast land, such a prosperous Chang'an City, such a big city, and so many people. ”
"Your Guanzhong words are good."
"The subordinate used to go to Goguryeo, so he learned some Central Plains dialect from the Goguryeo mouth, and after passing Tongguan, it took three or two days to learn Guanzhong dialect."
Xu Jingzong secretly thought in his heart that it was rare to be able to learn so quickly.
At this moment, in Lishan, Zhang Yanggang gave Cen Wenwen 30,000 yuan to support his teaching career.
Originally, this money was made by the court, but the inheritance of the family is still in Lishan, so the court can justifiably ask Lishan for money.
Sending Cen Wenwen to the entrance of the village, Zhang Yang said again: "When will the silver money of the Qinghe Cui clan be delivered." ”
Cen Wenwen replied: "It's just a few days. ”
"Brother Wen walks slowly."
When he walked out of the village, Cen Wenwen glanced at Xu Jingzong, who came with the envoy.
Zhang Yang's eyes also fell on Xu Jingzong and Jin Chunqiu. (End of chapter)
