Chapter 457: The Eldest Princess in the Pit (207)
"Daddy! I'm back! ”
"Girl! You're back! ”
On the shore, the father and daughter, who had just disembarked, answered such stupid questions and answers many times.
You Dalang: I heard that my sister and I crawled out of Auntie's stomach with our front and back feet, and now, I have reason to suspect that I may have picked up the word "good" by Daddy back then.
With such a big man in front of him, his father pretended not to see it.
Well, it's okay, he has two passionate younger brothers.
The brothers were holding one of his arms and almost broke it.
This one said, "Big brother, you have grown taller again!" ”
The one said: "Big brother, you have to come back a few months later, and the daughters-in-law and children that A-Niang has shown you are going to get married." ”
You Dalang: "." It's really a prophecy by myself.
Because the gifts given by the Datang Heavenly Khan and the valuables they bought were all stored in the warehouse of the grocery store, and everyone got off the ship with a baggage.
The family didn't know that they were going home, except for the Bajau crew, the others ran home as fast as they could.
An hour later, the bustle of the inner city can be imagined.
The elders and patriarchs of the four major families in the "giant pit", the chief of Sangli, the chief of Wuli, the head of the Haidayak tribe, the patriarch of the Bajau tribe and others, could not take care of dinner.
The first time came to the house of the lord of the country.
The eldest princess came up and put a few bombshells on everyone:
"First of all, the Great Liang Dynasty has long been destroyed like the Nanyue Kingdom, and now it is the Tang Empire that is in charge! The national strength of the Tang Dynasty is quite strong, with a population of tens of millions, and the former capital of the Nanyue Kingdom is now just a city of the Tang Dynasty.
Then, our New Nanyue Kingdom and dozens of small countries in the Western Regions jointly respected the Tang Emperor as the Heavenly Khan and were blessed by the Tang Dynasty. The palace of Datang signed a contract with us: dipterocarp, herbal ointment, peppermint soap and a series of transactions.
Finally, with the consent of the Tang Emperor, I chose a main peak on Baiyun Mountain, not far from Guangzhou City, as the cemetery of the New Nanyue Kingdom, and I can send the ashes of my ancestors to this mountain at any time in the future."
The amount of information is so large that everyone hears it differently.
The patriarch of the Zhao clan asked without giving up: "Princess, is this Datang really that strong?" ”
The princess replied, "The population and garrison strength of the city of Canton alone can wipe out all the countries on our island." ”
Clan Elders,
"Oh my God!"
"No wonder people can replace the Great Liang Dynasty!"
"It's not a shame to pay tribute to such a powerful country."
The goddess sighed: "Although there is no shame, but a weak country has no diplomacy!" If we can't stand on our own, we will have no place in the Celestial Empire in the future. Prince, tell the elders what you have seen. ”
You Dalang had already restrained the smile on his face, and told them what they had seen and heard along the way from Guangzhou Bosi to Chang'an Honglu Temple Post House.
During this period, he also talked about the causes and consequences of their fight with the Tang magnates during the autumn siege.
"The other party is just a second-generation official who has become a second-generation official with the light of his father's generation, so he can not look at us as messengers. If you encounter someone with a softer temperament and less powerful force, you may be disabled on the spot. ”
When Lord You heard this, where could he bear it, and slapped the table heavily: "It's too much to deceive, too much to deceive!" ”
Uncle Zhao's face was red, and his fists were clenched tightly: "Nephew, what happened later?" How did the Tang Emperor resolve this conflict? ”
You Dalang smiled embarrassedly: "The Tang Emperor fell in love with our auspicious clothes at that time, and asked me to cut my love to them, and I got benefits, so I naturally didn't bother with me as soon as I complained." The second generation of the official and his father later apologized to us. ”
"Whew." Everyone's aggrieved mood turned into relief when they heard this.
Datang seems to be quite reasonable.
The princess shook her head again and again:
"There are no eternal friends, only the binding of interests can last for a long time. The territory of the Tang Dynasty is vast, and there is more land than people. Agricultural products such as corn are inexpensive, and handicrafts such as cloth and silk are also well developed.
In the eyes of other countries, it is a big piece of fat, and everyone wants to go up and take a bite. If the Tang Dynasty can't remain strong, one day it will fall like the Great Qin, Nanyue, Daliang and other dynasties.
The new South Vietnam is now a newborn baby, to put it mildly, as long as those city lords in the south of the island join forces, it is still very possible to strangle us in the basket. ”
You Dalang nodded frantically:
"The city of Guangzhou is inhabited by tens of thousands of overseas merchants and missionaries, and their continuous delivery of Datang goods back to China to obtain high profits, at the same time, the news of Datang's military strength and various forces will definitely accompany these goods to foreign countries.
If Datang is strong, they will be able to do business in a proper manner and make money. Once the Tang Dynasty is weakened, these foreign businessmen will be the advance force of those overseas countries. ”
The two sisters discussed these topics several times in private.
In the end, the conclusion is: think of danger in peace!
Changing places, think about the new Nanyue country that has been founded for less than a year, and it is still far from the prosperity and peace of the Tang Dynasty.
The clan elders and patriarchs all slowly calmed down after hearing the words of the two sisters and brothers from the ecstasy of seeing the mountains of cloth and silk in the courtyard as soon as they entered the courtyard gate.
They were all silent.
After a while, Wu Zhu stroked his beard and said with a smile:
"It seems that this trip is of extraordinary significance! If you don't know how powerful the Tang Dynasty is, let's have people who will never die completely. Only by dying can we build a new South Vietnam country in a down-to-earth manner! ”
The lord of the country raised his hands in approval, but it can't be said that his daughter's eldest son is busy in vain: "What Wu Zhu said makes sense, the future of the new Nanyue Kingdom falls on these young people who have seen the world." ”
The patriarch of the You clan also agreed: "Yes, yes, yes!" The expectations of the lord of the kingdom are our expectations! Can Her Royal Highness the princess tell us more carefully, is the sea route to Datang still smooth? When we old things are alive, can we still have the opportunity to go to Datang to see the world? ”
"All of us can come back with all our beards and tails, and we really rely on the blessing of the gods! On the way there, the little prince of Morabrama was swallowed by a tiger shark and lost an arm. On the way back, just seven days ago, the city lord of Danabanthal, who had been captured by us, was drowned after capsizing in the night. ”
The princess sighed as she spoke, worried about the current range safety index.
"What? Got an arm eaten by a fish? ”
"This is too unlucky, it's almost at the door of the house and the boat can capsize!"
"I'm scared to death, we won't dare to go in the future if it's so dangerous."
You Dalang said with a smile: "Before our three-masted sailing ship was built, it was better not to use the dhow for long-distance sailing, because if the ship is too small, the ability to resist the waves will be weak" (end of this chapter)
