Since the completion of the Xuanshu Palace, for the first time, a group of people with white turbans have come in, and there is even more than one.

After all, there are requests for people, and the strength of the Qi people is obvious to all, so the envoys of the two countries did not have a relationship with the Qing government for several months like the British envoy Magherny in the previous life.

Daqi is still very open-minded in general, as long as it is not without physical contact, you are allowed to use the etiquette of your own country when you first meet Daqi monarchs and ministers can also watch a lively scene, and the etiquette of the next audience will be determined whether to treat each other as equals or after the monarch and minister.

Naturally, the ruler and the minister will use the Han rites, and the friend does not need it, the friend uses the bureaucratic nobleman Ghulam who is not up to the top in his own country, and Mustafa is the Babylonian Pasha, who is the top nobleman in the Ottomans, can only snort coldly and take his own people to sit on another Persian carpet.

But this carpet seems to be velvet, Qi people really don't understand the rules, this kind of blanket to hang on the wall to appreciate is actually spread on the ground as a carpet to use, really. It's so rich!

Unlike Arash, who grew up in the backwoods and had little knowledge, Mustafa didn't feel anything wrong with sitting on this kind of carpet at all, although his body didn't shake at all at the moment, but the yellow-brown eyes inherited from the True Turkic Ashina clan were constantly scanning everything in the Xuanshu Palace, this architectural style was different from all the palaces he had ever seen, exuding a different kind of charm

Mustafa didn't take the angry glare of the Persian envoy Arash to heart, it was just the wail of the loser, and what he saw and heard along the way had already given him a certain degree of understanding.

This is a huge empire that is in its heyday, like the Ottomans, and whoever goes on an expedition will lose a lot, so there is no need to clash with them.

After all, the Ottomans were too far apart from the Great Qi, and there was no grudge in the first place, did they?

Therefore, Mustafa gave up some unnecessary thoughts, and only had to stir up the Persians' plan to find a backer.

"Jinyu, can the imperial court really mediate the war between these two countries and let them shake hands and make peace? Why do I think the Persians are going to eat the Turks? Yun Yu muttered in her heart.

"It's hard to say, I heard that this group of Ottomans has taken a lot of Persian land, and it must take some time to digest it, but the Persians will definitely not swallow their grievances in their stomachs like this, and the possibility of continuing to fight is very high." Jia Hui thought for a moment and replied.

"But it can also be discussed, this time both countries have sent envoys over, and it is clear that there is a meaning to talk, the key is whether the court can find that point that is acceptable to both parties."

According to the available information, the Persians wanted to come to Dazira to sponsor a backer, and the Ottomans came to prevent the Persians from finding a backer.

In normal times, Daqi would support it more or less for the sake of the Persian ancestors sending a "king of kings" to Huaxia, but the threat of Dzungaria was like a fish in the throat, threatening the safety of the Anxi capital for a long time, and Anxi's military strength had reached its limit, so it could only ignore the other party at the same time.

Even so, it was really impossible to divide the surplus army to mix with the Persians.

Therefore, to do a favor to the Ottomans, all they had to do was to threaten the Ottomans at the end to warn them not to attack Persia again.

However, correspondingly, the Ottomans should also return some territory as a matter of sincerity, otherwise it will be a deliberate loss of face for Big Brother Qi.

In this way, the three parties have face, and they are all happy.

Of course, this is the ideal state, and the actual situation will definitely be more complicated.

But

"But the most troublesome thing is that these two groups of people have different beliefs," Jia Hui sighed helplessly.

"Different beliefs? So what? I believe that my wife believes in Buddhism, and the two of us always worship Buddhism together when we encounter major events on weekdays, isn't this still with He Meimei for most of my life? Regarding the question of faith that Jia Hui said, Yun Yu disagreed.

"Actually, it's really different, there's a set of cause and effect here." Jia Hui organized the language and said what he thought was different.

"First of all, you have to be clear about the concept, although these two countries can barely be regarded as orderly countries, because most of their country's land is desert, wasteland and other barren land.

The desert and the wasteland also divide their cities and settlements, so that the vast majority of their citizens live in tribes where people can live. In contrast, although China was the first to coexist with cities and tribes, there was only the threat of wild beasts and barbarians between cities, and it was easier for them to communicate.

Don't underestimate the act of communication, including business dealings, cultural exchanges, and even putting up a fight. Communication can make many things, including knowledge and products, circulate.

Speaking of them, although they all had a glorious civilization, they were only a small group of people who ruled the country, those few tribes that founded the country.

And the majority of the Buraku people have no access to education, and there are only tribal leaders, chiefs, artisans, and the like, so how can they possibly give these things to irrelevant people?

So most of them are some. The ignorant and illiterate are the most likely to have a deep belief in the gods.

Moreover, this Safavid Persia is completely different from the Sassanid Persia eight or nine hundred years ago, although they are both Persians, but Sassanid Persia believes in their own Persian gods, and this Safavid Persia today believes in Maimaiti, you know.

directly made the Persians change their banners in the past thousand years, and turned those Persian gods and beliefs into "Persian Myths and Stories", that is to say, from the Persian emperor to the tribal hooligans, all of them believed in Maimaiti, and even the emperor needed religious participation to ascend the throne.

Not to mention the Ottomans, it is said that it is Turkic, but it is actually a group of miscellaneous beards in the east of the ancient Great Qin State, and there is no culture in it, so it is even more regarded as a treasure of the Huijing!

And the logic of Islam is that those who believe in me are brothers, which also makes them more aggressive.

With the power of religion so strong in both countries, and the majority of the people of the country being fanatical believers, can this kind of war, which has turned into a religious war, be easily stopped? ”

Hearing what Jia Hui said, Yun Yu was stunned, but a shout in the hall interrupted the conversation between the two.

"Nonsense! Mustafa Pasha is completely turning the gray upside down! The Persian envoy Arash argued with Mustafa in the center of the hall in a dialect that was not yet pronounced accurately, and he had even learned to use idioms.

"Why did Lord Arash say that? If the heretics in our country had not been bewitched and mobilized by you, how could they have started a riot at the same time so coincidentally? In contrast, Mustafa, the Ottoman, who was often looked down upon by the Arabs and Persians, was so calm that he threw the question back with great decency.

Moreover, Mustafa's Chinese dialect is much more standard than Arash, which is an authentic Changping pronunciation!

Well, Qi Shanghu and Lushu beside Mustafa Pasha are Changping people.

"Maybe they're connected to each other!" Arash blushed and glared at Mustafa.

"Really? Those Persians that our country captured. Surely it was their messenger? Mustafa Pasha replied with a smile on his face.

The elegance that emanated from the bones made the Great Qi civil and military officers look sideways, no matter how the emperor, the cabinet and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies judged them, and made a judgment in their hearts, the Mustafa from the Ottoman completely crushed the one from Persia!

"The family is the Babylonian Pasha, the top nobles of the Ottomans, equivalent to the Spring and Autumn Emperor's doctor and even a little stronger, that is the master who has eaten and seen and is used to seeing big scenes. And I heard that the ability to command the army is not weak, and the ancient capital of the Persians, Isfahan, was defeated by this Mustafa Pasha.

And this Arash from Persia is only equivalent to a civil official of four or five grades in our dynasty. Jia Hui and Yun Yu commented on the two envoys.

"Doctor? No wonder" As soon as Jia Hui said this, Yun Yu understood.

The grades of the two sides are different, the Turkic one also has an identity bonus, and it's no wonder that the one from Persia doesn't lose!

"Let's talk about our Huaxia, although our Huaxia was like the Emperor of Heaven, the Lord of the Soldiers, and the Lord of the Four Seasons in the pre-Qin period, as well as the ancient gods such as Emperor Taiyi, Dongjun, and Da Si Ming of Yin Shang Jing Chu, but due to the influence of a hundred schools of thought, the ancestors still have a fear of God, but in fact, it is not as deep as imagined.

In particular, Han Confucian Dong Zhongshu put forward the theory of heaven and man induction, and directly bypassed the group of gods in the middle and communicated directly with heaven and earth, so that the admiration for the gods was directly hung on the heaven and earth, and the gods were not attached importance to the gods, and the gods were more and more like the officials of the imperial court.

And then there is the fundamental thought, in the case of Yungong's belief in the Xuanmen, in the final analysis, the Xuanmen is a religion extended by Lao Zhuang's thoughts, and there is no great aggression from the root, at first there was indeed an uprising such as the Yellow Turban Rebellion and the Wudou Midao Rebellion, but after the vigilance and suppression of the past dynasties, as well as the competition between the Shi family and each other, mutual attrition, under the influence of many aspects, it was finally tamed into the current appearance.

The most important thing is that the imperial court has always had an overwhelming power over religion," Jia Hui turned his head and looked at Mustafa, who stood up and gave the last speech of the first round of confrontations, and said faintly.

Otherwise, it will be like the Wakoku next door, where the monks and soldiers of the temple are more than the samurai of the daimyo family combined

"I see, but. Aren't they all Muslims? According to what Ling said, it should be like a brother, right? ”

"Ah, Yun Gong, you've got the point!" Jia Hui smiled slightly, and while listening to Mustafa's speech, he turned sideways towards Yun Yu.

"There is a good saying, heresy is far more hateful than paganism, the Ottomans believe in Sunnis, and the Persians believe in Shiites, I don't know what the difference between these two factions is, and I am not interested in understanding, but the relationship between them." Jia Hui organized the language

"Brother Tuo's crown, his words, Yu Xing and Shun tend, is the son of Zhang's cheap Confucianism.

is his clothes, his color, but he doesn't say anything all day long, and he is the cheap Confucian of Zixia's family.

Stealing Confucianism, eating and drinking without shame, the gentleman will not work hard, and he is the cheap Confucianism of the Ziyou clan. ”

After that, Jia Hui closed his mouth and listened intently to Mustafa's speech, leaving only Yun Yu, who had a look of sudden enlightenment, digesting this useless knowledge.

"I believe that all of you here are the top elites of the Qi country, and I, the Babylonian Pasha Mustafa of the Great Caliphate, believe that in your hearts, you all have the heart to distinguish between right and wrong and speak for the truth!

It was they, this hateful group of Persians who stirred up the Shiite believers in our country who have been living peacefully with us for decades, stirred up their evil thoughts, and launched that riot that lasted for years! Mustafa summed it up with his deep, passionate voice and slightly exaggerated body movements.

Although these behaviors can be regarded as a roaring court, but. Who made this Mustafa Pasha make a better impression on everyone? Besides, it is understandable that people come to China for the first time and do not understand the rules of the imperial court.

"We're doing 'Miller's Special'! We have made different religions autonomous, Orthodox Christians run Orthodox Christians, Catholics govern Catholics, and although our country is a Muslim Sunni state religion, we have never forced the people under our rule to convert to the state religion! ”

"Captain, is that really the case?" A county duke behind Jia Hui asked in a low voice.

"Indeed, as he said, what he believed before is still what he believes, but right. The treatment is not the same. Jia Hui said pointedly.

The military attachés who listened carefully with their ears pricked up suddenly understood in their hearts.

Understood, treat it differently, cut meat with a soft knife

This is also true, for example, that Orthodox Christians in Greece spend twice as much per acre of grassland as Turkic peasants during the grain season, and all non-Turkic peasants have to pay a land tax of about 25%-50% of the harvest, in addition to a poll tax that is twice as high as the tithe.

It's to force you to convert!

"I, Babylon Pasha Mustafa, swear in the name of my ancestors, grandfathers, lineage and fathers, and not a word of my words does not correspond to the truth, if not so, I will never return to the arms of Allah!" In the end, Mustafa made a poisonous oath under the watchful eyes of the Manchu civil and military, which ended the first diplomatic confrontation between the Ottomans and Persia.

Perth's envoy Arash sat down on the stall with a pale face, and he knew that he had lost this game too completely!

Not only did it not arouse the sympathy of the Qi people for the invaded Persia, but on the contrary, the Pasha of the Ottoman took the opportunity to preach how innocent and helpless the Ottomans were, and even gained some sympathy and understanding of the Qi people for their group of invaders

Your Majesty, I'm afraid that the old minister is going to lose!

The more Arash thought about it, the more sad he became, and he gradually burst into tears

But

Raising his head and looking at the figures sitting at the front of the two teams of officers with teardrop eyes, Arash regained his strengths and looked at Mustafa's figure with either closed eyes or joyless sorrow.

The group of people who really made the decision in the Qi State have not yet been moved, and Persia still has a chance!

While!

The orchestra played the ceremonial music again, and after the courtiers and envoys shouted in unison, today's court meeting ended.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I went out this morning for something, and I'm just finishing yesterday's update
