Chapter 131: Rome? Creon
Yan Yan "Go find those Dawan merchants and investigate this information in detail." ”
Banshee: "My lord, don't arrest them. ”
Yan Yan shook his head, "No, the target is too exposed, it's not necessary." ”
Chao Banshee: "My subordinates know what to do." ”
Yan Yan: "Go ahead. ”
The Banshee disappeared back into the house, and Liki walked over to close the window, and came back to continue to help Yan Yan rub her shoulders and back.
Yan Yan: "It seems that this trip to the Yueshi is full of many accidents. ”
"My lord, it is precisely these accidents that can create enough opportunities. ”
Yan Yan looked back at Liji, "You think about it." ”
Liji: "All the sisters in the house can share the worries of adults, and they still deal with things that come and go in their spare time. ”
Yan Yan: "Then what is the key to breaking the game on this trip to the Yueshi Clan?" ”
Reiki "Adult".
Then there was a burst of warmth in Yan Yan's ears, and a word sounded in his ears.
After Liji finished speaking, she bit Yan Yan's earlobe very boldly.
Yan Yan pulled her over, hugged her in his arms, looked at the shy smile in her eyes and the pink on her face, shook her head lightly and said, "What you said is a solution, so that the Yue clan will have to leave in advance." ”
Li Ji hooked Yan Yan's neck with her hands, hung herself up, and threw herself on Yan Yan's chest and said, "Once the Yue Clan leaves the field in advance, the person standing behind the plot will be caught off guard by the Yue Clan, and when the time comes, the adults will see the situation and rearrange it, and there will be a chance to break the current situation." ”
Yan Yan: "Yes, that's it. ”
"Tomorrow you will arrange according to your plan, and experience and train yourself."
Liji nodded in Yan Yan's arms, and then said shyly, "My lord, it's getting late. ”
Yan Yan looked down, Liji's watery eyes reflected his figure, and then the reflection got closer and closer, and a sense of warmth came.
Early in the morning, the weather was already very hot, Li Ji helped Yan Yan change into court clothes, put on a sachet and jade pendant, and then according to the custom of the Western Regions, hang a scimitar decorated with jewels on her waist.
Liki took two steps back and watched, her rosy face full of smiles.
Li Ji nodded, "The dark court clothes with this scimitar add a lot of color." ”
Yan Yan looked at Liji, turned around cooperatively, and then heard Liji's words of praise.
Yan Yan: "I'm going to the palace. ”
Regitte let go of her hands that were holding him and whispered, "Be careful, sir. ”
Yan Yan nodded, left the room and walked towards the carriage, and then the procession headed towards the palace of the Yue Dynasty.
Liki then left the embassy as well, and proceeded as planned.
The Moon Palace.
Gattuso Weng, the king of the Yue clan, sat on his throne with a crown on his head and a scepter in his hand, which symbolized supreme power.
On both sides of the main hall, the noble ministers of the Yue Dynasty lined up on both sides, waiting for the arrival of the envoys of the Great Qin Empire.
Gattuso's face was gloomy, he couldn't understand that the Qin Empire would suddenly send envoys to come, you must know that the Yue Dynasty was on top of the problem of the Mobei Wolf Clan, but there was a huge gap with the Qin Empire, and the two countries became enemies.
And now that the envoys of the Qin Empire have arrived, Gattuso has to consider the real reason behind this.
Gattuso even thought that the incident had been exposed, but when he looked back, he felt that it was impossible, after all, only a few people knew about it, unless there was a traitor among the kings.
However, it is impossible for traitors to defect to the Qin Empire, and the fate of the wolf clan is completely unacceptable in their eyes, how can their noble bloodline be on the same level as those untouchables.
The knight came in and said, "Your Royal Highness, the envoy of the Great Qin Empire has arrived. ”
Gattuso: "Ask them to come in." ”
The knight turned and walked away towards the outside of the palace.
The nobles and ministers on both sides were discussing in whispers, guessing who the envoy would be?
Yan Yan led the three deputy envoys into the palace hall with the knights, and as they walked in, there were constant inhalations and exclamations from both sides.
Yan Yan could hear their words, "The Taishi of the Qin Empire came in person", "He is actually the teacher of His Majesty the Emperor of Qin", "It's him".
Yan Yan came to the middle and saluted, "The envoy of the Qin Empire, Yan Yan has seen the king of the Yue Clan. ”
The three deputy envoys behind him also bowed and saluted with Yan Yan, and then straightened up and looked at the golden palace.
Gattuso secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then hurriedly said, "Quick, bring a seat for the Taishi."
The slaves in the palace brought to sit and placed the eucalyptus in the center, and Gattuso said, "The master and the envoys, please take a seat." ”
Gattuso felt that his heart was about to jump out, he never thought that the envoy of the Qin Empire would come in person.
This time instantly made him nervous, the Qin Empire's Taishi envoy to the Yue Clan was definitely not such a simple matter.
Gattuso: "As a messenger, the Taishi came to the Yueshi to say something. ”
Yan Yan "returned to the king, and before talking about business, he brought a message to the king." ”
Gattuso: "Master, please speak." ”
"The Imperial Lady of Nina asked her to report peace to the king, and hoped that she could return to China to visit the king and pay homage to the king, hoping that the king would allow it." ”
Yan Yan's words made Gattuso frown, and some of the ministers and nobles on both sides did the same.
"It's been almost ten years since Lady Nina Huang married into the Qin Empire, and during this time, she has been thinking about the king, and it's approaching the king's sixtieth birthday, so she made such a rude request. ”
"His Majesty the Emperor of the Qin Empire has agreed to Lady Nina's permission and has relayed it to him as one of the missions."
Gattuso's mind flashed Nina's appearance, has it been almost ten years? It's been a long time since I've seen Nina.
Gattuso: "Actually, His Majesty the Emperor Qin has already passed, so the king also agreed, and two years later, on the occasion of the 60th birthday of the king, let the king's beloved daughter come back to pay respects." ”
Yan Yan: "Thank you to the king, and the Qin Empire will also send a rich birthday gift at that time." ”
Retracting his hands, Yan Yan's face became formal, and as his face changed, the atmosphere around him began to be low.
Yan Yan: "King, the next thing I want to talk about is the actual purpose of coming to the Yue Clan Kingdom this next time. ”
In the main hall, all the nobles and ministers felt a pressure coming at this moment, even Gattuso, all eyes couldn't help but focus on Yan Yanyan, at this moment he was more like a king in charge of life and death than Gattuso.
The three officials of the Qin State behind Yan Yan looked at these people with disdain, and their hearts were full of superiority.
This palace, which is not as big as the mansion of the Qin State, and its owner still dares to call himself the king, which is really beyond his strength.
If this king went to Zhangtai Palace to attend the court meeting, he would be crushed to death by the air pressure in the palace.
Under the pressure of His Majesty the Emperor, except for the Taishi, all the officials did not dare to take a breath, otherwise under the scrutiny of those eyes, people who were not in good health would be able to faint on the spot.
The three deputy envoys felt the familiar air pressure, and their bodies unconsciously sat up straight, in stark contrast to the submissive Yue nobles and ministers around them.
"King, the caravans of the Qin Empire to and from the countries of the Western Regions have recently reported to the government, and the countries of the Western Regions have begun to increase their commercial taxes and goods taxes. ”
"There are even many commercial agreements that are not signed with the countries of the Western Regions of the Qin Empire, such as robbing the caravan of the Qin Empire and arresting innocent people."
"And according to the investigation of the Qin Empire, the Yue Kingdom also has such a phenomenon."
Yan Yan looked up at Gattuso, "Please give the Qin Empire a reasonable explanation in this matter, and ensure that the Yue Dynasty will deduct taxes and provide troops to escort trade routes as stipulated in the agreement, and eliminate the rogues and bandits within the Yue Dynasty." ”
Yan Yan's words were very heavy, when the Qin Empire had not yet agreed to the Kwantung countries, it had already signed commercial agreements with the countries of the Western Regions, and many of the above terms were conducive to the trade between the Qin Empire and the countries of the Western Regions, and now the countries of the Western Regions no longer abide by the agreement, which made the merchants who traveled between the two places very annoyed.
There is also such a thing added to the mission of the mission, which is used to solve it.
Gattuso began to sweat on his forehead, but he was still a king, and he quickly adjusted his mind, and sat down and promised to investigate the cause of the matter as soon as possible.
"The second thing. ”
"The Qin Empire wants to set up an embassy in the Yue Kingdom and send officials to the Yue Kingdom to maintain the friendship between the Qin Empire and the Yue Kingdom."
"And the Qin Empire invited the Yue Kingdom to send officials to Xianyang, and the Qin Empire will build an embassy of the Yue Kingdom in Xianyang for its residence."
Gattuso: "Master, what's the point of doing this?" ”
In addition to maintaining the friendship and alliance between the two countries, the envoys can also experience the different customs and folklore of the two countries, deepen the cultural exchanges between the two countries, and promote the stability of the two countries. ”
"And in this way, the envoys who come and go do not have to go to the trouble to reach the destination, complete the task and leave, the customs and folklore of the two countries are not experienced at all, and the exchanges are not deep."
Gattuso listened to Yan Yan talk about the benefits of this incident, and his heart began to move.
The aristocratic ministers on both sides were also very excited if they could go to live in the Qin Empire just thinking about it.
"The third thing. ”
"The Qin Empire intends to cooperate with the Yue Dynasty to continue the trade route westward as far as the Greek Commonwealth and the Kingdom of Luowang in the Mediterranean, and transport goods from both countries to the ends of the continent."
"And this needs the help of the Yue Clan, the Qin Empire is too far away from the Greek Federation and the Roman Kingdom, and the Yue Clan and the Qin Empire cooperate, and distance will no longer be a problem."
Gattuso lowered his head and pondered Yan Yan's words, according to the meaning he heard, it was obvious that the Qin Empire did not find out about the incident behind this, and the Qin Empire only came because of commerce.
Gattuso: "Taishi, these three things will take time, please leave some more time for the Taishi and the envoy team, and this king will be able to decide after consulting with the ministers and nobles." ”
"It's nature. ”
"But the king, this time can only give the Yue Kingdom five days at most."
"Five days later, I will go to the kingdoms of Wusun, Qiuzi, Dawan, and Loulan to seek cooperation."
Hearing this, Gattuso nodded and said, "This king understands. ”
Yan Yan got up, "Retire below." ”
The three deputy envoys also saluted and left behind Yan Yan, and after leaving the palace, Yan Yan said, "The three of you will act according to the plan, and anyone who comes to inquire tonight will prevaricate. ”
"Don't go out with the truth."
The three of them, "Don't worry, we will understand." ”
Yan Yan waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't follow me, go walk around the streets by yourself, and wait for the Yue people to come to the door." ”
The three of them saluted separately, and Yan Yan also walked in one direction, unconsciously adding a small sword to his waist.
Soon, a person appeared beside Yan Yan, handed him a note, and turned to leave.
The small sword on Yan Yan's waist was put away again, and he opened the information in his hand, and after reading it, the whole piece of paper was still dust on his hand and disappeared without a trace.
Yan Yan walked into a restaurant, ordered a meal and sat quietly, and as the meal was delivered, the Chao Banshee also appeared at the door.
Wearing a cloak, she approached Yan Yan, sat down beside him, took the mutton handed over by Yan Yan, and after taking a bite, she watched the knife in Yan Yan's hand slash over the mutton, separating the meat and bones.
What is the result. ”
"As the adults thought, Dawan's merchant blurted out everything when he saw the money. ”
Yan Yan: "Is there any involvement of the Netting Kingdom behind this?" ”
The tide banshee reached out and grabbed a piece of mutton and continued to eat, raised her eyes to look at Yan Yan and nodded, "Yes, and it's two." ”
Yan Yan "Two shares? ”
"Yes, one group came to Dawan in the form of a caravan, which is why the merchants of Dawan knew that Westerners came to this way." ”
"The other group is an army of 1,000 people, they are wearing armor that is different from the countries of the Western Regions, and they are now in the Wusun Kingdom."
Yan Yan: "Are these two groups of people really Westerners?" ”
"I always felt like there was something wrong with that."
Chao Banshee "My lord, don't arrest a few people, and then interrogate them with torture." ”
Yan Yan: "This is a last resort, and it's not time yet. ”
The Chao Banshee nodded and continued to eat the food on the eucalyptus, her eyes never moving on Yan Yan's body.
The scimitar in Yan Yan's hand did not stop, and the pieces of meat of uniform size were broken down by him, and then he ate them unhurriedly.
After night fell, Yan Yan looked at the tide banshee, "Go and find out where these two groups of Westerners come from and what the leader of the team is called." ”
The tide banshee nodded, wiped the corners of her mouth and left the restaurant, and saw Liji at the door, the corners of the tide banshee's mouth rose, and she left with a light smile.
Liji walked in and sat next to Yan Yan, watching him pout.
Yan Yan handed a piece of meat to her mouth and watched her bite it, as if she was going to eat it with her fingers.
Liki swallowed the food in her mouth and said, "I met a group of people in Western attire in the city, and I heard his subordinates call him Creon. ”
He also said that he would return to the kingdom as soon as possible and bring the news back. Otherwise, the border of the Kushan Kingdom army will be too late. ”
