"Your Majesty, look, the person is intact, I don't have to pay my life, right? Look at how strong he is, how happy he is!"
Xiahou Zao threw the prince of Baicheng Kingdom into front of Liu Chang like a chicken, and then said proudly.
Liu Chang couldn't help but look at the prince. The prince looked very embarrassed at this moment, muddy, and emitting a stinking smell. He looked like a volunteer man than those who had been working for more than ten years. At this moment, he was frightened.
Looking around, I couldn't even speak, and there were tears flashing, and no matter how I looked, it had nothing to do with strength and happiness.
"kitchen!
Didn’t I say I wanted to invite him over? What did you do to tie him up?! Look at his face again, you want to ruin my big deal!"
Xiahou Zao was stunned and quickly released the rope on the man's body, then spit out a saliva in his hand, preparing to wipe his face. Unfortunately, Lu Lu couldn't bear it anymore, so he stepped forward and kicked Xiahou.
On the stove's butt, "Get out! Get out!
”
Xiahou Zao glared at Lu Lu, but when he saw that His Majesty's face turned a little dark, he didn't dare to say anything. He rubbed his butt and left here. Instead, Xiahou Zao's adjutant stayed here, and there was another translator.
Before leaving, Lu Lu immediately changed his smile on his face, and he walked forward with a smile, preparing to help the prince up. The prince was so scared that he trembled all over. Lu Lu helped him up and asked him in a bad body verb.
Well, in fact, Lu Lu used the language from the Peacock Kingdom, which is different from the Baicheng Kingdom.
But the prince could still understand it. He stood up in surprise and looked around. Is this Chang'an?
That tall and mighty giant is the rumored Emperor of Han?
Be safe yourself??
Excited, the prince couldn't help but speak at all, and he spoke very quickly, and Lu Lu and Liu Chang couldn't understand at all. Fortunately, the translator translated his words to Liu Chang in time.
"Your Majesty, he said he was Gapalo and the prince of Baicheng Kingdom. When he came to pay homage to the emperor, he encountered a robber. All the things he was going to offer to the emperor were taken away. He said that the robber looked like he brought him here.
The general, but the robbers were muddy and very messy, and they were savages in the mountains..."
Liu Chang grinned and couldn't help but look at Lu Lu, "This guy is quite smart... Not bad, not bad."
"Tell him that robber has been subdued, so he doesn't have to worry. I won't blame him for losing the tribute he gave me!"
"Just let their king make up for it!"
The translator from Dianke Mansion was stunned and immediately translated the emperor's words to the prince. Gapalo was just happy that he was saved at this moment and had no idea of caring about other things at all. Fortunately, he thanked him very gratefully.
The emperor asked himself to go down and wash up and see the emperor again, but Chang Liu stopped him, "You came to the Han Dynasty, you should have the officials of Dianke followed him. Where did those officials go? And... your follower
Are there any acts of bullying the people along the way?!"
Liu Chang frowned and looked very serious.
The prince heard this and hurriedly explained, "Your Majesty, when we arrived at Longxi, those great Han officials said that something urgent happened, so they left first, let them stay there, saying that some disaster had occurred, and as for bullying,
People, we have never done this. When we came, there were people's livestock blocking the way, so we were not allowed to pass first, and there was a dispute... "
Liu Chang looked at the deputy general of Xiahou Zao. This deputy general was quite reliable. He said seriously: "Your Majesty, when we went there, we also saw a conflict broke out between them. At that time, someone held a whip and drove away a few farmers.
When the man, Xiahou Taiwei was furious when he saw it, he rushed up and started attacking..."
Liu Chang probably understood, but he still said seriously with a stern face: "This is the Han Han. The Han Han has the laws of the Han Han. Even the emperor cannot beat others at will. Unlike you, here,
You must abide by the laws of the Han Dynasty. If such a thing happens again and deal with it according to the laws, your father dare not say anything. Do you understand?!"
The prince nodded and hurriedly apologized.
The prince was still very clever, without the dandy personality and no arrogance, so Chang Liu asked him to go back and rest.
"The relationship between Peacock and Baicheng has never been very good. The Peacock Kingdom has always wanted to annex them, but it does not have that strength. Now the Peacock King is leaning against us, unscrupulously, knocking on the edge many times, Baicheng is already very good
I'm uneasy... If I can make good use of this, it would be a good thing for the great man. The Baicheng Kingdom is vast and rich in resources. Although it is not as good as the Peacock Kingdom, it can definitely be considered a great country in the Central Plains, let alone we still need it."
Lu Lu nodded.
"Just do what Chen Hou said, give him high treatment and send someone to have good contact with him. It is best to win the King of Baicheng to come to the man in person... Well, let's do this, you'd better first
Don't rush to do it, call those two old men over to me!"
"Those two?"
"My master and Chen Hou!"
"only!
”
Lu Lu quickly called the two old men to Liu Chang. In fact, Liu Chang just went to find Chen Ping for such a thing, and there was no need to call both old men over at all. But the problem is, Liu Chang was
I really enjoyed the feeling of two old men giving advice for me. This was Ah Father’s enjoyment at the beginning. I had to experience Ah Father’s happiness.
During these days, these two old men have negotiated and formulated a series of policies regarding the situation of the body poisoning. They did not allow anyone to participate. The result of the discussion was directly issued to Dian Kefeng, who was in the body poisoning.
respect.
When the two arrived, Chang Liu had already prepared tea and ate it for them.
Liu Chang smiled flatteringly, asked the two of them to sit down, and exchanged false greetings for a while, then he expressed his purpose.
"The prince of Baicheng Kingdom is here."
Han Xin narrowed his eyes, "This Baicheng King is not stupid. He knows the reason for the arrogant nature of the Peacock Kingdom. He can send his only son to be a good person. He has some courage. It's good and can be used."
"Do I have to find a way to get their king to come in person?"
Chen Ping nodded, "Yes, this is very simple. As long as the Peacock Kingdom puts pressure on the football team, their king will definitely come... Just leave this matter to the old minister."
"As long as their king comes in person and sets a precedent, we can buy horse bones for a thousand gold coins, forcing many kings of Physal Poison to come and pay their respects. At that time, the great man will have sufficient strength to interfere in all matters of Physal Poison.
When they were in conflict with the peacock, they all wanted to be favored by the great man, but the small countries around them were the ones who were most afraid of being annexed... These are our best swords..."
When Chen Ping started speaking in a state of contemplation, countless enforceable conspiracies seemed to emerge in his mind. From Liu Chang's perspective, at that moment, Chen Hou's face would be
It became gloomy, and the whole body seemed to be filled with the smell of conspiracy, which made people very uneasy, and it was simply the image of a big villain.
Liu Chang was very helpless about this. Why are he, a virtuous and righteous king, surrounded by some villain templates?
Chen Ping looks very villain, and his master who has rebelled many times looks like a villain. Zhang Buyi stands like a villain, even his mother... Ahem, it's only him, anyway, from a distance,
I know that he is a benevolent, righteous and wise saint, and he has nothing to do with the villain.
Chen Ping took the initiative to ask for this, but Han Xin frowned, but he didn't say much.
If Chen Ping wants to do it, Liu Chang will naturally not send people himself. No one can be better than Chen Hou to do it himself.
When Chen Ping said goodbye and left, Han Xin did not follow him. He looked at Liu Chang seriously and reminded him, "It is better to send a few more imperial physicians to follow Chen Ping. His health is getting worse and worse. He is too old.
I'm old... I'm over 70 years old and I'm still running for you now... You have to treat him kindly."
"Teacher, I know... But Chen Hou can't stay idle himself. Every time I ask him to return home, he still can't help but write a letter when something happens. At this age, I'm afraid that he can do anything.
If you don’t do it, it will make him lose that anger. At his age, having something to be done may not be a bad thing..."
"I have sent four imperial physicians around his mansion, living around his house, and you can arrive at any time... His car was also built by Shangfang himself, which is particularly stable..."
Han Xin nodded and left.
Chen Ping was still very efficient in doing things. On the next day, he sent someone to invite the poisonous prince over.
He also had the name of a food and goods mansion, and his body was the object of the Han Dynasty's long-term trade. Therefore, there was no problem with Chen Ping meeting the crown prince. When the crown prince arrived, he learned that the old man was the current Han Dynasty.
The main official in charge of trade, Baicheng Kingdom came to the Han Dynasty. The biggest purpose was to get the help of the Han Dynasty. Since the Peacock Kingdom began to trade with the Han Dynasty, its national strength has increased rapidly, and the various supplies of the Han Dynasty greatly strengthened their strength.
The armies transported in the past have allowed the Peacock Kingdom to "replace bird guns with cannons" to greatly increase the strength of the army. Originally, the hundreds of cyclones could still use the terrain to compete with them, but now the crushing of equipment and the disadvantage of the number of people have made
They could not bear it anymore and took the initiative to return a lot of areas. If this continues, Baicheng Kingdom will become a part of the Peacock Kingdom again.
As the largest kingdom split from the Peacock Kingdom, Baicheng people do not miss the period when Peacock Kingdom ruled them, because Baicheng is in the south and the core of Peacock's rule is in the north. When both sides are one, Baicheng people live.
Not good. They often go to death, they pay the most taxes, and they are always discriminated against and humiliated by peacocks and northerners. Ashoka once threw a prince from Baicheng into his own beast fighting
In the field, he was asked to fight with the tiger with bare hands and eventually died tragically.
After the prince died tragically, Ashoka still said disdainfully that the warriors in the south were at this level and did not even return the corpse in the end.
In the Chinese region, it is probably equivalent to the Zhou emperor calling the King of Chu who had surrendered to him and forcing him to death, and humiliating him after his death... No one can stand it.
They were eager to trade with the Han Dynasty and become princes of the Han Dynasty, so that the Peacock Kingdom would not dare to do anything to itself and strengthen their strength. They did not have the ambitions of the Peacock King, and they would be fine as long as they could maintain their territory.
Gapalo was ready, changed into clean clothes, and learned the etiquette with his close servants for several hours, remembered the situation of the official, and repeatedly pondered the following conversation in his mind. Gapalo actually
It is not the biological son of the current king of Sado Garoni, who was adopted by him, because he was a clan and intelligent since childhood, so he was loved by the king and adopted him as a son, and because of the king himself
His son was stupid and incompetent, so the king simply made him the crown prince.
After Gaparo was ready, he followed the officials to pay homage to the minister.
However, the moment he saw Chen Ping, he felt a little disappointed.
This was a messy old man in front of him. Although he was dressed very gorgeously, he looked uninspired and old, with dull eyes, and his whole expression was a little dull, and he didn't look so clear.
The prince was a little confused. Didn’t he say that the Han Dynasty had a large population? How could such an elderly person continue to be reused?
Although he was very disappointed, he did not show it. Instead, he paid politeness to him, and there was no mistake in etiquette.
Chen Ping suddenly looked at him, "Are you here to trade?"
"What do you all have?"
The translator on the side hurriedly translated his words to the prince, and the two were able to communicate normally.
Nowadays, after years of development, Dianke has many translators, and its translations are becoming more and more accurate, and there will be no longer the situation of the amateur translator who translated "sucking human breasts".
The prince hurriedly expressed his domestic products and his admiration for the great man, saying that he was very confident, and of course he had some exaggeration.
However, Chen Ping's eyes quickly became disappointed.
"Those are not as good as the Peacock Kingdom... The Peacock Kingdom bought us 10,000 crossbows. In this transaction, what you just said, they have to send a hundred cars..."
The prince was helpless, but he still smiled and said, "We admire the Han Dynasty very much. We are willing to become the vassal state of the Han Dynasty..."
Chen Ping suddenly laughed and shook his head, "You are about to perish. How can you be our vassal state? Forget it, forget it, you can give it to the peacocks, you can go back!"
Chen Ping waved his hand, without saying a word, turned around and left without even stopping. After hearing the translator's words, the prince's face changed drastically. He thought of the ten thousand crossbows he had just said, and he was about to perish?
Is this Peacock Kingdom preparing to obtain a large amount of supplies from the Han Dynasty and then attack us? The Han Dynasty already knows that? Will the Han Dynasty send troops?
At that moment, countless thoughts emerged in the young prince's mind, which made him extremely uneasy.
He wanted to rush in and ask the old man, but he couldn't say anything.
It was at this moment that Chen Ping's subordinates hurriedly left with his letters and headed to the palace.
The prince stayed here for a few more days, but he didn't go out to watch and couldn't even eat food. He was extremely frightened. After truly seeing the great man, he knew how terrible this empire was. If they had helped him with all their strength, the Peacock Kingdom
It is too easy to swallow Baicheng Kingdom, and I can't stop it at all.
"This minister, please tell the boss again. I want to meet him. We actually have a lot of supplies... and a lot of..."
Prince Baicheng pulled the officials who served him, his face full of anxiety.
Because, over the past few days, this official's attitude towards himself has become increasingly cold.
At first, I was extremely enthusiastic, but now I am getting colder day by day. What does this mean? The man is ready to turn to the peacock??
The official looked at the prince with some pity, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "It's too late to go to see him now. By the way, do you have any skills to make ends meet?"
"I want to pay homage to the Emperor!
”
"The emperor is very busy and cannot meet easily..."
"Please report..."
The official raised his head and coughed a few times. The prince suddenly realized that he tossed and turned around and could not find anything good. Finally, he took out the jewelry he brought with him, a necklace made of close-fitting gold, which was hidden in the underwear.
Inside, he was not stolen by Xiahouzao, and now he only has this property.
After getting the things, the official agreed to report to the emperor.
All of this made the prince increasingly believe that the Han Dynasty had turned to Baicheng Kingdom and the Peacock Kingdom would soon be dealing with itself.
The emperor was the prince whom he met in Xuanshi Hall.
"His Majesty!
!”
The prince knelt in front of the emperor, "We have admired the great man for a long time. My father always talks about you and respect you. Let me treat you like my father after coming to Chang'an. His body was before
I am sick and can't come in person. Now it's much better. He is going to come to pay homage to Your Majesty in person and become Your Majesty's minister. Your Majesty does not need to be a king. As long as you can lead your horse for Your Majesty, we will be very satisfied!"
"Baichengguo is willing to build ten withered statues for you in China so that people in the country can understand your greatness!"
"We also want to send all the treasures in China to you..."
It can be seen that the prince has done his homework and has already learned about the emperor's hobbies in advance.
Liu Chang looked at him with some embarrassment, as if he was a little entangled, but his heart was filled with laughter. He still had to be his own old marquis. It took only three days to express his verbal hints and the officials around him.
The attitude suggests, without saying anything, the prince himself made up a picture of Baicheng's destruction at any time. Looking at this, he was even more anxious than himself, but when he remembered Chen Hou's letter, Liu Chang still had to pretend.
It looks very difficult to deal with.
"Oh...I have won your heart...but, this Peacock Kingdom will pay tribute to me first, I can't..."
The prince heard the entanglement in the emperor's words, his eyes lit up, and he immediately shouted: "Your Majesty doesn't know that the Peacock Country is vast and rich, but when facing the Holy Emperor, he refused to do his best, and just paid some rotten food to perfunctorily.
, We are willing to surrender completely and can accept the officials of the Han Dynasty. All the taxes in the domestic market are up to you..."
The prince said it very well, but in fact, the great man did not have the ability to send officials to manage it directly, and he had no way to interfere in their internal government affairs. He could only send it to him. Liu Chang frowned, "I think about it again, you first."
Go back and come back tomorrow.”
Seeing the prince with uneasy face walking away, Liu Chang couldn't help laughing.
