"They? I've been so busy these days that I've forgotten about it. Hurry, send Fu An an audience. Have envoys from other countries come here and wait for me to send you the message." Yunxi patted his head and said.
He really forgot about this matter. Although Yunxi always attached great importance to diplomacy, at the same time, reports came that the people of the Ming Dynasty were tortured by the soldiers of Samarkand. Yunxi immediately ordered the execution of the prisoners to save the people. Where could he go?
Can he care about them? Later, he arranged for Shang Bing to lead troops to the west, and the matter was naturally forgotten. At this time, Xu Huizu reminded him of the matter, and Yunxi immediately summoned Fu An and envoys from various countries to visit him.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Xu Huizu agreed, bowed and retreated. After leaving the room, he immediately ordered his guards: "Let the interpreter come here to serve you. None of these envoys from the Western countries can speak Chinese and
It’s Mongolian and needs someone to translate it.”
After receiving the order, the guards immediately went to find someone, and Xu Huizu went to Xuanfu An to see him.
In the house, Yunxi ordered Wang Gong to bring Fu An's resume, self-report and documents from envoys from various countries, and read them carefully while leaning on the Arhat bed.
"Fu An was originally from Kaifeng Prefecture. He first served as a county official. In the 18th year of Hongwu's reign, he came to Siyi Guanzhong as a general officer, and then served as a preface officer at Honglu Temple. In the 27th year of Hongwu's reign, he was transferred to the Military Department to Shizhong. The following year, he was replaced by his grandfather
He was appointed as an envoy to the Kingdom of Samarkand and arrived in the city of Samarkand the next year."
Yunxi finished reading Fu An's resume and picked up the autobiography he had written these days to read.
"I arrived at the city of Samarkand on the ninth day of April in the twenty-eighth year of Hongwu to discuss official business... The official business was completed on May 16th. Because I was not acclimated to the climate and was homesick, I declined the invitation of the king of my country, Timur, to stay for a few more days.
However, Timur suddenly changed his attitude and detained all the generals and envoys and refused to return home. Thinking about it now, Timur should have had the ambition to invade the Ming Dynasty from that time on."
"After that, Timur sent people to lead his ministers to travel in his country. Every time he went on an expedition, he ordered his ministers to accompany him. Therefore, he traveled tens of thousands of miles of land in the west and visited dozens of countries. Timur used this to boast of the vast territory of his country.
, I urge you to surrender. I swear to the death that you will not surrender."
"Timur occasionally summoned his ministers to inform the Ming Dynasty of domestic affairs. When I heard about the death of Emperor Taizu, I was extremely sad and wore sackcloth for his majesty for more than a year..."
Fu An wrote in great detail what happened in the city-state of Samarkand. Yunxi immediately concluded that this was definitely not a temporary writing. It should be that Fu An had the habit of keeping a diary and recorded what happened every day in detail.
I transcribed it once in a few days. Yunxi flipped through it, and when he turned to the last page, he found information about Fu An obtained by the generals of the Samarkand City State who interrogated the prisoners, which proved that Fu An's self-report was basically true.
"Tsk, tsk, Fu An is the contemporary Su Wu." Yun He said with a warm expression.
Yunxi quite approves of this approach. It is obviously unreasonable and unnecessary for an envoy to commit suicide after being detained. Moreover, Fu An has been to so many countries, and he is the most suitable person for diplomacy.
He must make great use of him, not to mention that he has not rebelled, but that he has rebelled. As long as he does not believe in Tianfang Sect, he will pretend not to see it, and let him take charge of diplomatic affairs with Western countries.
"Wang Gong, Xuan Chenji is here." Yunxi thought for a while and said.
After Chen Ji came over, he ordered: "Chen Ji, you prepare an imperial edict..."
After hearing this, Chen Ji saluted and said to Yunxi: "Your Majesty, is this appointment too hasty? I think it is better to summon Fu Gei before making an edict."
"I have read the self-report he wrote, and there are confessions from other captured generals of the Samarkand City State to prove that his self-report is true. I have made up my mind and have nothing more to say." Yunxi said.
Chen Ji persisted for a while, but when he saw that Yunxi insisted on letting him draft the imperial edict now, he could only bow and agree. After a while, the imperial edict was drafted, and Yunxi stamped it with a big seal after reading it and put it in his hand. After that, he looked at Fu An carefully.
A self-narration or diary, while waiting for him to come.
…
…
"Wei Guogong, your Majesty summons ministers and envoys from various countries?" Fu An said to Xu Huizu in disbelief. He had been left out for more than twenty days, and he thought he would be taken to the capital by the emperor to deal with him. Why did he suddenly suddenly do so at this time?
Call?
"Your Majesty has settled all the important matters. He has decided to return to Beijing in the past few days. He remembered that you and the envoys from various countries were coming, so he ordered me to summon you to see you." Xu Huizu said with a smile: "Don't think that you will be dealt with. In Sasha
The city of Markhan has not surrendered for eight years. Following the story of Su Wu, the emperor will be very happy. You will definitely be rewarded and promoted in the future. Before you left the Ming Dynasty, you were from the seventh rank. At least you will be able to do it.
Promoted to two ranks."
"The emperor's kindness is so great!" Fu An couldn't help but say. He had been uneasy these days, but today he was finally able to put his mind at ease.
"Wei Guogong, I want to go back and change into my official uniform. Please ask Wei Guogong for permission." He said to Xu Huizu again. When he first went to Samarkand as an ambassador, Zhu Yuanzhang gave him a fine official uniform, but he was afraid that it would be worn out.
Wear it. At this time, you have to change into the official uniform to meet Yunxi.
"Of course it's okay." Xu Huizu said with a smile: "Go back and change quickly. I'll wait for you here for a while."
"Thank you, Duke Wei." Fu An bowed to express his thanks, turned his head and hurried back to change clothes.
I met Claviyo and Quijano on the way. "Mr. Fu An, just now someone from your Ming Dynasty told us to go to see your Emperor. Is it true?" Claviyo asked in Khwarizmo.
.
"It's true," Fu An replied with a smile: "Your Majesty has settled all matters, and today he remembered you and me, so he declared his audience."
"This is great! I have long wanted to see His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, but he has been denied. Now I can finally see him." Claviyo said with a very high emotion. Quijano stood aside, his face
Shang also looked happy.
"It's better to be more respectful to His Majesty the Ming Emperor. Don't use words like 'him'," Fu An said.
"Could it be that the emperor of your Ming Dynasty understands the Khwarizm language? I remember you said that your emperor of the Ming Dynasty only understands Chinese, and I can't speak Chinese. When I was summoned, there must be an interpreter to speak to me.
The language was translated into Chinese, so..." Claviyo did not finish what he said, but Fu An understood what he meant.
"It's better to be more respectful. How can we say things accurately?" Fu An said again, sideways to avoid them, walked into his own house, changed into the clothes given by Zhu Yuanzhang, and went to the toilet.
Bring everything together and return to the hall to follow Xu Huizu to meet Yunxi.
