Chapter 431 The deep friendship of the Ming Dynasty

readx;

Under the attention of the civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty, Leheke led more than 300 envoys to the dam outside the Taihe Palace. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Fortunately, the dam outside the Taihe Hall is big enough, otherwise so many people would probably not even have a place to stand.

Outside the Taihe Palace, Yang Yiqing, Li Dongyang, Yang Tinghe, Wang Qiong, and Xia Yuanming stood together, and did not stand in the phalanx of the hundred officials.

There is no other reason for this, because it is so humiliating. It insults the prestige of the imperial court officials, and also insults the gentlemanly quality of scholars.

Wang Qiong was a little apprehensive when he saw Le Heke bringing people here, and he couldn't help but ask Yang Tinghe beside him: "Lord Shoufu, can Taifu Jiang's trick work? Why do I think this heart is always unstable?"

Before Yang Tinghe could answer, Yang Yiqing clasped his hands in front of his chest and said, "What if it doesn't work? There are still a total of 700,000 taels of silver in the treasury, and it is not enough to give it to the envoy of Na Yili as a reward." If Mrs. Jiang can think of such a way, can we have a better way?"

"This is, this is ......," Wang Qiong nodded.

Seeing Lehoke approaching, Jiang Xia immediately raised his hands above his head.

The civil and military officials suddenly took out a small red flag from behind their backs, and they danced the small red flag in unison, shouting in unison: "Welcome, welcome, warmly welcome ......."

Lehok was taken aback by this sudden formation, and hurriedly asked the translator next to him what these Ming officials were talking about.

After the translator translated the words of the hundred officials to Lehoke, Lehoke immediately felt excited.

This Ming Dynasty is the Heavenly Empire, and hundreds of civil and military officials are all dispatched to welcome him, and I am afraid that the kings of some small countries may not have this treatment in person.

Le Heke looked at Jiang Xia with a fluttering eyebrow, and enthusiastically opened his hands to Jiang Xia and said, "It's so polite, Lord Jiang is really too polite." ”

Jiang Xia also endured the nausea, and after hugging Le Heke, he said: "Our Ming Dynasty and your country have been friends for many years, for our Ming Dynasty, your country is like a sibling brother, for siblings, no matter how cumbersome the etiquette is, it is not polite, but a kind of respect." ”

Le Heke was a little embarrassed by Jiang Xia's words.

He himself is the main battle faction of Yili Jiangli, and has always advocated uniting with Wara to attack the Ming Dynasty. This time, I also came with the intention of deliberately embarrassing, but I didn't expect to be treated so politely.

The so-called human heart and mind, Le Hoke felt for the first time that it was actually quite good to be friends with Daming.

Lehek nodded and said: "The Central Plains really deserves to be called the state of etiquette, and I am sorry for some rude behavior after we came to Daming." ”

"General Leheke said this too politely, you are not used to the customs and customs here when you come to Daming, and it is inevitable that there will be some friction between the people of the two sides, and you also apologize for this, polite, too polite......"

Jiang Xia skillfully talked to Leheke in Mongolian, and a compliment made Leheke understand what shame was for the first time.

Le and Ke held Jiang Xia's hand and said excitedly: "No matter what the relationship between Yili and Daming is in the future, I, Le and Ke, will always regard you Jiang as a friend." ”

"Good brother. Jiang Xia was also excited.

He clapped his hands, and the palace guards immediately lifted the red cloth from the twenty-odd carriages. More than 20 horse-drawn carriages, filled with various vases, porcelain, calligraphy and paintings, books......

Of course, there is no gold, silver, jewelry and jade.

Lehoke was slightly stunned when he saw it, pointed to those vases, porcelain and other things and said, "This ...... These are the gifts that Daming gave us?"

Jiang Xia nodded with a painful face, he took Leheke's hand and walked to one of the carriages, and said, "I believe that the general must be thinking, why is there no gold and silver, right?"

Lehok nodded very frankly.

Jiang Xia put his hands on his hands, and the expression on his face seemed to be moved to tears. He said excitedly: "General, the officials of our Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Household have jointly inspected the things that you Yili gave us. It is estimated to be worth 1,800,000 taels of silver!"

Le Heke was taken aback by Jiang Xia, and he didn't know that he didn't know that those things might not cost 100,000 taels of silver.

But now that Jiang Xia said 1.8 million taels, of course he couldn't refute it, so he could only nod and say, "Indeed, in order to show sincerity, our country has brought all the most precious things in Yili. ”

"That's it!" Jiang Xia patted Leheke on the shoulder and said, "Yili is our friendliest friend in the Ming Dynasty, you are so sincere, how can we let you suffer?"

Therefore, we have gathered all the most precious things of the Ming Dynasty here. Roughly estimated, the things here are worth at least ten million taels of silver. ”

"One...... Ten million taels?" Leheke looked at Jiang Xia with wide eyes, and then looked around at the things on the carriage.

He asked incredulously, "You say these things are worth it...... Worth ten million taels of silver?"

Jiang Xia looked righteous and asked, "What's the matter?"

Jiang Xia hugged his fist at Le Heke and said in a deep voice: "Please send a person who understands the culture of the Central Plains." ”

Lehok thought for a moment, then turned to look at the translator he had brought.

Jiang Xia stretched out his right hand and pointed at him, then hooked his index finger and motioned for him to come over.

The translator bowed to Jiang Xia and walked over.

Jiang Xia casually took out a blue-green porcelain from the carriage and handed it to the translator, and asked, "Look at it, what is this, how much silver do you think it is worth?"

The blue-green porcelain of the translation turned out to be carefully examined, and then said weakly: "This...... This looks like a night pot, right?"

"Yes, it's a night pot, but it's not an ordinary night pot. Jiang Xia said with a serious face: "This is the night pot used by Qin Shi Huang back then, and it was also used by Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty. Its value is so precious, I believe you should know a thing or two about it without me saying it, right?"

Jiang Xia said as he secretly raised his right hand.

When the civil and military officials saw it, they immediately shouted loudly: "Oh my God, no, Lord Taifu, that is a relic of the former emperor, a national treasure of the Ming Dynasty......"

The civil and military officials suddenly roared like this, Le Heke and the interpreter were startled, and the interpreter's hand shook, and the night pot in his hand almost fell to the ground, so frightened that he hurriedly hugged it tightly in his arms.

Tian Yuan, the governor of Zhan Shifu, a dignified and six-grade official, ran over excitedly and stretched out his hand to snatch the night pot in the translator's hand.

Jiang Xia grabbed him and said, "Lord Tian, the overall situation is important, the overall situation is important......

"That night pot is worth a lot of money, it was bought by Shen Wansan, the richest merchant in the Ming Dynasty, for 80,000 taels of silver and given to Emperor Taizu, and it is worth at least 200,000 taels so far. How can such a national treasure be given away? Oh my God...... I am ashamed of the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty. ”

As he spoke, Tian Yuan sat on the ground and howled.

Jiang Xia shook his head secretly in his heart, thinking that this Tian-sama's drama was inevitably too exaggerated, right?

Although Tian Yuan's play was exaggerated, it still shocked the translator and Le Heke.

Leheke asked the translator in a low voice what was going on, and Jiang Xia heard the translator say to Leheke in Mongolian: "This is the beloved thing of the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and it is worth a lot of money, and this Ming courtier is reluctant to give it away." According to my estimates, this thing is worth at least 100,000 taels of silver. ”

"One hundred thousand taels?" Lehok looked at the translator in surprise, looking incredulous, and he said in a low voice: "How can such a thing be worth so much silver?"

The interpreter whispered to Lehok: "General, you don't know anything. This thing is an antique from the Central Plains, which has been passed down for hundreds of years. Such things are often priceless in the Central Plains. ”

Lehok finally understood this time, nodded and whispered: "Put it away, there must be no damage." ”

"Yes. The interpreter answered, and stood behind Lehok with the night pot in his arms.

Then Jiang Xia took out a painting scroll from the carriage and unfolded the painting scroll, only to see a picture of "Chickens Eating Rice" painted on it.

The brushwork is so immature that it looks like it was created by an unsensible child. Jiang Xia showed the picture in front of the translator, and said with a look of vigour: "Do you know whose masterpiece this is?"

The translator actually wanted to say that this was the creation of a little kid, but he guessed from Jiang Xia's expression that this painting must have its extraordinary.

The translator looked at the painting carefully, and Yang Yiqing, who was standing at the door of the Taihe Palace, couldn't help but ask, "Jiang Xia seems to have bluffed the tributary ambassador, but where did he get these things?"

"Some of them were dragged from the kiln factory, and some of them were collected from the Guozijian. Originally, he was persuaded to go to the street to find a painter to buy some paintings, but he thought that those paintings would cost silver, so he refused. Li Dongyang said in a low voice.

"Just like that, how much silver does he valuate?" Yang Yiqing couldn't help but ask.

Yang Tinghe tugged at the corners of his mouth on the side, and finally said: "Ten thousand taels ......"

"Ten thousand taels, is he taking that tributary ambassador for a fool?" Yang Yiqing couldn't help but whisper in surprise.

Yang Tinghe said angrily: "The old man hasn't finished speaking, the 10,000 taels don't refer to silver, but gold." ”

"Ten thousand taels of gold?" Yang Yiqing felt that Jiang Xia must have gone crazy.

But at this time, the translator suddenly shouted excitedly as if he had discovered a new continent: "Yan Liben! This is Yan Liben's painting?"

Jiang Xia stretched out his hand and patted the translator's shoulder, looking at him with admiration: "Insightful." ”

In fact, what is insightful is nothing more than that he deliberately wrote the three words "Yan Liben" crookedly in the lower right corner of the painting, waiting to be discovered by this translator.

Jiang Xia said: "Yan Liben, a painter in the early Tang Dynasty. It is known as 'a painting of ten thousand gold'. And his "Walking Diagram" is known as "it is not easy to make money". However, this "Chicken Eating Rice" is the first painting he painted when he was seven years old.

Its significance, its value, even the "Step Diagram" cannot be compared with it. This painting was accidentally acquired by Tang Xuanzong, and then carefully sealed and brought into the tomb for burial.

After the tomb of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty was stolen, this painting reappeared in the world. I thought that ordinary people would not recognize this as Yan Liben's real handiwork, but I didn't expect it to be seen by you at a glance, master! You are definitely a master of calligraphy and painting!"

The translator was praised by Jiang Xia like this, and his chest was suddenly high. He pretended to be modest and said to Jiang Xia: "You're polite, I just know a little bit about it." ”

Jiang Xia looked at the translator suspiciously, shook his head and said, "Be modest, real people don't show their faces, I'll understand." ”

The translator whispered to Lehek: "General, this is a rare treasure. Worth at least 10,000 taels of gold. ”

"Ten thousand taels of gold?" Lehock's excited breathing was a little disturbed.

He endured the excitement in his heart, hugged Jiang Xia with a touched face, and said, "Lord Jiang is so polite, Daming's enthusiasm and sincerity, I have already felt it clearly." ”

Jiang Xia nodded and handed the painting to the translator.

Before the translator could reach out to pick it up, Jiang Xia raised his left hand slightly.

The civil and military officials immediately made a distressed look and shouted: "Master Taifu, if you even give this away, you will become a criminal of the Ming Dynasty." That's the treasure of Daming Town......"

At this moment, Yushi Feng Jingli came out and spit in front of Jiang Xia, and scolded angrily: "Traitor!

After speaking, Feng Jingli flicked his sleeves and strode away.

Jiang Xia commented in his heart: "Well, this Feng Jingli's drama is not bad, just two simple lines, the anger and disdain in his heart are all expressed, and the action of flicking his sleeves when he leaves at the end pushes his emotions to another level." ”

The translator whispered to Leheke: "General, I think this Lord Jiang should have taken out all the treasures collected by the Ming Emperor. So now the officials of Daming are very angry.

Otherwise, we don't have to check them one by one, and take the things and go first. After leaving Beijing, I will find an insider for valuation. ”

Leheke also saw that there was something wrong with the atmosphere on the dam, according to what Jiang Xia said, this was something of 10 million taels of silver.

Even if Jiang Xia exaggerated it, it would be worth at least five million taels, right?

How can I calculate that I have made a lot of money from this trip to Daming, in case the courtiers of Daming unite and regret it, I am afraid that the meat in my mouth will have to be spit out.

Thinking of this, Lehok had already made a decision, and he said to Jiang Xia, who was taking the third item out: "Master Jiang, there is no need to say it, we have deeply felt the friendship of your country. It wasn't early, so we took our things on the road first. When I return home, I will certainly convey the friendship of your country to our Khan. ”

Jiang Xia nodded and said, "General, although I have been under a lot of pressure this time, I believe that my efforts and efforts will not be in vain, and I hope that our Da Ming and Yili will continue to be friendly." ”

Leheke was also ashamed in his heart, he deceived others of so many treasures, and deceived others of some sincere feelings, but the voice of the war in China became louder and louder.

Leheke couldn't help but say to Jiang Xia: "Let me remind Lord Jiang, anything can happen, please be careful." ”

Jiang Xia nodded heavily, and said sincerely: "Good friend, I wish you a smooth journey!"
