In late spring and early summer, the morning sun shines on the city walls and warms up.

Ten miles in the western suburbs of Chang'an, the Hanhu market is full of people, and the Hu merchants in the western regions lead camels to squeeze through the bustling pedestrians between the roads, and the camel bells jingle and shake gently.

The glamorous orchids stepped barefoot on exotic dances, dangling their bare navels, throwing winks at passers-by, provoking the spectators below to shout, throwing copper pieces and falling under the swirling skirts.

"Xiaojia wontons, May fatty meat filling, delicious, refreshing and tender!"

"Spring fragrant soup, the best tea, almonds cooked, do not drink can also boil to see, golden and gratifying. ”

“..... Over there, I want a goose fat!!"

"Hey, come out quickly, there's a lot of fun-"

I don't know who roared, noisy and lively long street, there are messengers carrying water and fire sticks to disperse people*** fork sticks to separate people on both sides of the road, look at the end of the road, several different flags are held high, several teams of different costumes of the Western Regions team came to this side, most of them are high-nosed and deep-eyed Western Regions Hu people, there are also Turkic people wearing fur hats and passing fur furs, riding on horseback, looking at the Chang'an Hanhu on both sides of the road, and slightly raised their faces.

This team is the envoys sent by Tuyuhun, Gaochang, Yiwu, and the Turkic countries, who came to Chang'an to pay tribute, and the news has spread as early as a few days, and the foreign Hu people have not seen the Heavenly Empire for a long time.

"This group of Hu people is really interesting, and finally knows that they have come to meet my Great Sui Emperor. ”

“..... Hmph, don't you come? Do you want to talk to the Turkic sand ..... 100,000 Turks, wiped out day and night, in terms of martial arts, how can my Great Sui soldiers be comparable to these Hu people?"

"Brother Tai is right, aren't these Hu people here now...... Hey, in the Hu people team below, why are there some weird guys, with hoods in broad daylight, not too hot?"

In the eyes of the people watching the excitement on the second floor, in the middle of the procession passing by the street, there were a few figures, wearing cloaks, or dressed strangely, not caring about the chattering words of the surrounding market, sitting on horseback and following the team all the way to the inn where they stayed.

"Prince Tuyuhun, King Gaochang, Yiwu, Turkic envoys, please here. ”

The team stopped, and the officials of Honglu Temple invited the envoys of the four countries to enter the post house, and on the way they also clarified the tribute matters, probably the four of them rested in the hall for two days, and only after His Majesty summoned them could they enter the court to meet the saint Yan Yunyun.

Then the specific matters of food and accommodation were arranged, and they were checked into the wings of the hall in turn, and after passing down, it was already evening, and the officials of Honglu Temple left tiredly.

The night is getting dark.

In the small courtyard of the east building, Tuyuhun guards guarded everywhere, the window lattice with lights on, there was a thin voice, and soon, the door creaked open, and a hooded figure, wearing a dusty robe, half-bowed and withdrew from the inside.

"The prince rests early, and we'll take care of the rest. ”

The clumsy body shrunk into his sleeves with his hands in his hands, and slowly passed the corner of the corridor from the guard's field of vision, and entered one of the rooms, where the candlestick stood on the table, with a soft bang, jumped into the firelight to illuminate the furnishings in the room.

The man took off his hood, revealing a thin and narrow face, with a long beard and white eyebrows, the tip of his nose slightly hooked, and sat quietly on the stool with folded hands, looking at the flickering candlelight, and slowly closing his eyes.

The bean-sized candle flame instantly turned green.

"Ladies and gentlemen, how do you think you should act when you meet the Son of Heaven of Sui early the day after tomorrow?"

There was no trace of sound on the slightly open lips, but there were words from the room to the rest of the courtyard of the post house, the night breeze blew through the courtyard, it was quiet for a while, and there was a sound of mana, and he slowly spoke.

"If Gao Changguo doesn't follow, then ignore it, and early the day after tomorrow, show it first, let the emperor of Sui be fascinated, and take the opportunity to kill him!

"Hmph, if you kill someone else's emperor in court, you will take revenge, it doesn't matter if you die, how can I and Buddha Lianzun escape? ”

The voice that spoke was a woman, and there was no geographical distinction in the words of mana traction, almost all of them could be understood, and the old man in Tuyuhun here also agreed with her words.

"To the Central Plains Dynasty, but they fell into their prestige and received it, not to mention, the Son of Heaven of the Sui State has only been on the throne for two years, whether it is the Ming monarch, or the faint monarch does not know, if the Ming monarch is killed, it is okay, if we kill a faint monarch, wouldn't our trip be a great favor to the Sui State, in case an emperor who ascended the throne is the Ming monarch, wouldn't we be embarrassed?"

In the Turkic courtyard, Fa Yin was silent for a moment, stopped talking to the national teachers of the two countries, and retreated.

On both sides of Yiwu and Tuyuhun, they didn't care about the withdrawal of the Turkic envoys, and continued to talk about some details of the day after tomorrow, when the woman on Yiwu's side suddenly interrupted.

"Buddha Lianzun, you seem to have forgotten that there are also national teachers in the Sui Kingdom. ”

"I've heard some rumors, it seems that the surname is Lu, a person from the south of the Sui Kingdom...... The rest, I don't know, I want to be the same age as me in the future, when I come to fight with him, you can accompany the emperor of Sui to play well, it is best to be able to charm him and extricate himself. ”

"Huh..... Psychedelic arts, but what I'm best at, Buddha Lianzun, you just look at it. ”

The night wind whimpered and ran across the eaves, and the sound of the law in successive courtyards gradually disappeared, as time passed, the night passed, the east was white, and the morning light shone out of the clouds and fell to the imperial city.

“...... Tuyuhun occupies the main road of the Southern Silk Road all the year round, nominally friendly to our Great Sui, but the fine work has never been broken, and often inquired about the situation of our Sui State, which can be described as ill-intentioned. ”

"Your Majesty, what Su Shangshu said is extremely true. Among the ministers, Min Changwen, who had to be white, walked out with his hands and bowed down towards the golden steps: "The first emperor's thunderous means, Qi I Dasui up and down, will seriously injure the Turks, deter the small countries of the Quartet, this time the four countries are invited to worship, there must be other intentions, tomorrow the tribute can not let the national teachers of the country outside the party enter the palace." ”

In the first column of civil and military affairs in the main hall, Yang Su listened with his eyes closed, hummed in his mouth, and did not wait for the emperor on the dragon chair to speak, opened his eyes and walked out.

"If Min Shilang does this, won't it show that I have no one in the Great Sui? Let these small foreign countries laugh. ”

The old man's eyes were majestic, and he arched his hand towards Yang Guang, and his eyes swept away the civil and military forces behind him.

"If these Hu people really want to fall into the majesty of my Great Sui tomorrow, they can come, how can I be afraid of this father's southern and northern war?"

As he spoke, he turned to face the golden steps and arched his hand towards the emperor above: "Your Majesty, let the ministers be around tomorrow!"

The hall was quiet, and the lights were swaying.

Yang Guang, who was sitting on the dragon chair, stretched his beard, smiled, stretched out his hand and waved to the side: "Everyone, you learn more from the Duke of Yueguo, and the old minister is not obedient to the old, which is what my Great Sui should be." ”

Bang!

Between the sprinkling of the dragon sleeves, the dragon sleeves flicked, and the palms slapped heavily on the armrests of the dragon chair, and the crown bead curtain on the top of the vibrating head shook.

"I think that in a big country, how can I let Xiaoxiao jump up and down, and all the secretaries have said their ideas, which is very good....... I have my own way of dealing with them, scatter the dynasty!"

Yang Guang put up his sleeves, took the eunuch attendants, strode down the golden steps, turned to the apse, and his eyebrows were full of forest, and he grabbed the branches that stretched into the eaves of the corridor, snapped them, and removed the eaves pillars.

...... This Yang Su.

As he murmured, the eunuch who followed closely behind him stepped forward in small steps and reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the senior apprentice of the national teacher, is still waiting." ”

"Where?"

"Senjuin. ”

Xianju Courtyard was built by Yang Jian before his death, for a period of time, quite envious of Lu Liangsheng this kind of cultivator, so he temporarily built this courtyard, there is no common rockery landscape pavilion, mostly ancient cypress and old camphor, between the flower garden paths, it is a seven-storey wooden building, hung with wind chime ribbons.

Yang Guang came here, and in the pavilion in the distance, an old man in a white robe and white beard sat with a cup of tea, as if he heard the sound of footsteps approaching, put down the tea cup in his hand, and stroked the white beard with a smile.

"Your Majesty, summoning the old man into the palace, but for the matter of the envoys of the four countries? ”

With a slight bow, a pair of pale eyes are half-closed, but they look at the blooming flowers and plants, showing mystery.
