Chapter 842: Actually
While speaking, the group had already arrived outside the gate of the Yuanman Divine Capital. Looking at the walls of the Divine Capital, the envoys couldn't help but show a trace of disdain. Because compared with the walls of the big cities of Daqi, the city walls of the Shendu in front of him can only be regarded as a wall at most.
Of course, this is not to say that the army can take the city lightly. The reason for this situation is simply the difference in culture, development and history between the two countries. Although the walls of the Shendu are not tall or heavy, it is easy to break through the walls and enter the city. However, the buildings in the city are extremely strong, and none of them can be said to be small fortresses. And the major families and the temples in the city are castles, and the battles and street battles of these castles and fortresses after the army enters the city are the real difficulties.
In Daqi, siege warfare is the attack and defense of the city wall, and street fighting is almost non-existent.
Yuan Man still has a city wall, and there is no city wall at all, some are just tents, and the siege war is completely non-existent. After the defeat of the field battle, ordinary people rolled up their tents and drove their cattle and sheep to run.
Although Yin Xiuquan and Zhou Xuan knew the characteristics of Yuanman's city, they did not prevent them from showing a trace of disdain when they saw the walls or walls of Yuanman's Divine Capital.
However, this expression of disdain disappeared when they arrived at the gate of the Yuan Barbarian Divine Capital, and completely turned into anger! Because not only were the number of Yuan Barbarians who came to greet them small, but there was not a single person wearing a purple robe in the sacrifices inside.
Although Yuanman is composed of principalities, the radius of thousands of miles centered on the divine capital is the territory directly under the jurisdiction of the temple. Within a radius of thousands of miles, it was not the ordinary officials who ruled over the people, but the priests of the temple.
The priests of Yuanman were the most noble in purple robes, followed by red robes, black robes, blue robes, green robes, and white robes. Feng Qingyao, they came to envoy on behalf of Daqi, and if they were not purple-robed priests, they should at least be red-robed. But among this group of people, not to mention the purple robes and red robes, there were not even black robes and blue robes of priests, but a few green robes of priests came to greet them.
And the green-robed priest is almost like a larger chief or a county magistrate of a small county according to the official system of Daqi!
Chapter 4 The Saintess of the Yuan Barbarians
"It's not a son of man!" let a black-robed priest come to meet us!"
Yin Xiuquan couldn't help but be angry when he saw the situation in front of him, and said to Feng Qingyao and them out of breath. Yin Xiuquan was angry at the same time, but he felt more incredible, although Yuan Man was insulting himself and his party by using this low-level sacrifice to greet his party, insulting the entire envoy group, and insulting the entire Great Qi.
But this kind of tasteless behavior insults the other party and insults himself at the same time. is to lower their own grade. This kind of thing that seems to be very classless. The Yuan barbarians did it without any hindrance, which made Yin Xiuquan very incomprehensible.
Feng Qingyao was not as angry as Yin Xiuquan, but felt very interesting, or very interesting and interesting.
"It's a really interesting group of people. It is really unscrupulous to achieve the end. In order to make the other party embarrassed. You can throw your face aside.
As long as you lose face to Jean. It's as if you've won and reaped the benefits. Such a group of people, such a country, is really a very strange country. â
Feng Qingyao said to Yin Xiuquan with a smile.
Yin Xiuquan was also very angry about the situation in front of him. However, hearing Feng Qingyao's words, Yin Xiuquan could only smile bitterly and said: "Mr. Feng, what you said is right, Yuanman is indeed a very, very strange country. Things that harm others and themselves or even lose both sides are not a little stressful for them, and they are even happy to do it. As long as they can make the other party lose face, whether they will lose face or not, they don't care at all. â
Although Yin Xiuquan's anger had been suppressed due to Feng Qingyao's words, when he came to the gate of the Yuanman Divine Capital, Yin Xiuquan's face couldn't help but darken. Because the gates of the divine capital are closed!
The gates of a city are open during the day, and they are only closed during war or at night, but the gods actually closed the gates when Feng Qingyao came to them, which is completely disrespectful.
The green-robed priest who was waiting at the gate of the city saw Feng Qingyao and them coming, and stepped forward and said, "You are envoys from the Qi Kingdom, and I have been ordered to meet you here, come with us." â
Yin Xiuquan said with a dark face: "Since you know that we are envoys from Daqi, why don't you hurry up and open the door and let me wait to enter!"
The green-robed priest shook his head like a rattle and said, "No, no, this is not in accordance with the rules." The gates of our shrines are generally not opened, and only very noble adults will open the gates to let them in. Although you are the envoys of the Qi State, your official position in the Qi State is not high, at least you are an official of the second grade to be qualified to go through the gate. â
The words of this green-robed priest are complete nonsense, and he really speaks nonsense with his eyes open. Although Yin Xiuquan didn't know much about Yuan Man, he also did some understanding before coming. Knowing that the Yuan Barbarian God is a famous city that never sleeps, even at night, the gates of the city are not closed, and there is no zĂ i What is the gate in the middle can only be walked by an adult of noble status, and anyone can enter through the gate. Even thirty slaves can be servitude.
But it was such a gate that any Yuan barbarian could enter and exit at will, and when the envoys of Daqi came, they didn't even open it, and let the envoys of Daqi go through the small doors on both sides, which was simply naked discrimination and provocation.
Yin Xiuquan was trembling by the words of the green-robed priest, and pointed at the green-robed priest in front of him and shouted: "You are insulting and provoking my Daqi! Are you going to provoke a war!"
When the green-robed priest heard Yin Xiuquan say that he wanted to provoke a war, a slightly panicked expression appeared on his face, but he quickly returned to normal, looked at Yin Xiuquan and said, "This lord, if you have to understand it like this, then we can't do anything." This is the rule of our Yuanman, and you are not qualified to let us open the door to greet us. Unless it is a member of the second rank or above of your Qi country, or a prince and prince can only walk through the gate. â
"Good, good, let's go!"
Yin Xiuquan turned the horse's head with a dark face and prepared to leave.
Seeing that Yin Xiuquan really turned his head to leave regardless of the envoy's affairs, the green-robed priests were also stunned. Although they were ordered to make things difficult for Feng Qingyao and Yin Xiuquan here, they didn't think of driving Feng Qingyao and them back, such a responsibility was something that a few of their little green-robed priests couldn't bear.
But before they could show a panicked expression, they heard Feng Qingyao speak: "Lord Yin, there's no need to be angry with them, if they don't open the door, we can just smash it ourselves." â
"Uh, smash the gates?"
Although Yin Xiuquan was not lightly angered by these green-robed priests, he was also stunned when he heard Feng Qingyao's words. In a family, the gate is the face of the whole family, even if it is a broken gate, no one else can touch it. Breaking into the door is regarded as the greatest disrespect to the owner's house, and it will definitely form a situation that will never die. It is even possible to make the two families feud!
This is the case for ordinary people, let alone a country. The gate of the capital is the face of the whole country, if you break the gate of a country, it is definitely equivalent to slapping the face of everyone in the country.
However, although he felt that Feng Qingyao's words about breaking the gate of the Yuan Barbarian Divine Capital were a bit excessive, Yin Xiuquan felt a sense of joy in his heart, and felt that he was relieved by doing so. The behavior of turning around and leaving by himself is a bit too weak. Like Feng Qingyao, he can only show his strength by breaking the door and entering by himself. (To be continued......)
