Chapter 803 The final chapter of the coming of all nations
There was silence in the main hall.
The Slavic Principality was conquered, and the faces of the surrounding courtiers and guards were all surprised.
Her Royal Highness is worthy of being the prince's daughter. In the past, the army was somewhat stumbling, but now she independently commands the three armies. In just one year, she defeated the great country in the north.
Zhou Yuan leaned down and bowed:
"I congratulate your majesty and congratulate your prince on your unification of the world and your rule over the world."
All of a sudden, all the ministers stood up one after another and shouted to worship.
Li Qing looked at Su Lu next to him.
Su Lu looked at the ministers who were paying homage to Shan Hu, and felt a little uninterested for a moment.
Fighting in the south and north, suppressing the whole country, and all the barbarians are convinced, it seems that it is not a happy thing.
Li Qing saw that Su was quite tired on the road and knew that he was tired, so he simply waved his hand:
"In that case, whoever preaches my will will grant amnesty to the world and enjoy the joy of the people."
General Dong Ling of the Staff Office came out and said:
"I think that at this good time, I should pass on the decree to all the princes in the world and attract all the countries to come to the court to share in this prosperous age."
Su Lu's eyes lit up, this was a good thing.
Li Qing was not a lively person at all. He frowned and thought for a while, then waved and said:
"This is too much work..."
As he was talking, Li Qing noticed the light in Su Lu's eyes, and the next words were suppressed in his throat. If Su Lu wanted to, this matter could be held.
Zhang Mo, the Minister of Justice of the Third Law Department, came out of the shift, holding the court book, and said respectfully:
"I second the proposal to invite all the nations to come to the court. Only in this way can I show the majesty of my kingdom and be able to be subdued by all the countries. I dare not start any more border provocations or harm the lives of my great people."
Da Zongzheng and Li Li also jumped out:
"I second the proposal"
For a time, the whole hall was filled with voices of support, and the officials, all red and purple, surprisingly reached a consensus.
Li Qing smiled and looked at Su Lu with squinted eyes.
Su Lu nodded:
"Since everyone has this intention, we will send an order to all the countries in the world to pay tribute in March next year, when the peach blossoms bloom."
…
The Gao Dashan family took a carriage and finally arrived in the capital before the peach blossoms bloomed and the day before the national celebration, and moved into the house of their second brother Gao Dabao.
It was the first time for my son and daughter to come to Beijing. They were delighted to see many things. After having dinner early in the morning, they were led by several cousins and went to the streets to watch the excitement.
After the mother-in-law had rested, Gao Dashan finally waited for his second brother to return home.
"Brother is here, is the road going smoothly?"
Gao Dabao slapped the dust on the official residence and asked Gao Dashan.
The brothers were extremely happy to meet each other. Gao Dabao ordered the servants to prepare wine and food. Over the wine and food, the two brothers talked about the past.
"Xiao Ning is also twelve years old. Don't leave this time. Let's go to the martial arts hall to study."
"Xiaoyun is fourteen. Logically speaking, it's time to get married. It's better to enter the martial arts hall and study for two years. After leaving the martial arts hall, it would be best if you can enter the Jinyiwei. Even if you can't, you can marry someone from Beijing.
He is also a person who can speak the truth."
Gao Dashan hesitated when he heard this:
"As a person who has retired from the military, I can introduce one of my children to the martial arts hall. It is already a blessing from Your Majesty and Your Majesty."
Gao Dabao smiled and said:
"Brother Haojiao knows that Her Royal Highness the Princess has returned from the Northern Kingdom these days. Because she personally visited the battlefield, many soldiers were killed and wounded. Thinking of retired and disabled veterans like my eldest brother, after petitioning Your Majesty, I specially sent you a favor.
A pair of silver waistbands is a trivial matter, but allowing Yin Yizi to enter the martial arts hall is a great thing."

Gao Dashan suddenly became excited when he heard this:
"Well, I can't thank Your Majesty enough for this."
After finishing speaking, Gao Dashan knelt on the ground, facing the direction of the imperial city, and kowtowed several times.
It's late at night, and the bright moon is high in the sky.
On the waterway pier not far to the north of the city, stern ships docked one after another.
In recent years, land-based stone rail lines have extended in all directions, and this waterway has gradually become deserted. This time, the pier was able to dock a stern warship because the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War specially requested it and temporarily repaired and excavated it.
Su Ping got off the ship and glanced at the brightly lit capital not far away. A smile appeared on his already wrinkled face.
I haven't been back to the capital for a few years. I wonder if my second brother is doing well these days, and the soldiers in the army are still there.
Glancing back, Su Ping became angry and cursed when he saw Han Ergou bragging to a few sailors:
"Han Ergou is so stupid."
"This time is a tribute from all nations. If you bastard embarrass me, don't even think about returning to the navy this time."
Han Ergou didn't take it seriously either. He and Su Ping had been fighting each other for a long time, and their friendship was life-and-death. He didn't take Su Ping's scolding seriously at all.
"General, just watch it this time. I have decided to show off the style of our Han navy and let the foreign barbarians see what the real power of the imperial army is. I don't think the prince will give the young lady in the palace the gift if he is happy."
Give it to me."
For a time, there was laughter and laughter all around.
At the same time, Li Kun, Sun Xiu, Zhang Lu, and other army commanders, led by elites selected from their respective armies, continuously marched into the capital.
On the second day, all parts of the capital were decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and there was a sea of excitement everywhere.
Chen Laoshi came out of the inn courtyard early and went to the main hall. He ordered a bowl of spicy soup and ate it happily with fried dough sticks, listening to the discussions of the diners and shopkeepers around him.
"I really can't afford to stay in an inn in this capital. Five hundred dollars a night is too expensive."
The diner who spoke was dressed in southern clothing, which was quite different from the people in the capital.
The waiter put a bowl of spicy soup on the table and said with a smile:
"So that the guests will know that all the countries are paying tribute, and all the inns are full of people. The price of vegetables and meat has soared. Even the money for lamp oil has doubled. We, the shopkeeper, are unable to raise it to
Five hundred dollars is enough to barely protect the capital."
"You're a good talker, little guy..."
For a time, the whole hall was filled with various voices of discussion. Suddenly, a familiar voice caught Chen Laoshi’s attention:
"Let me tell you, we owe it to the prince and your majesty to have the good life we have now. Five hundred dollars a night is not expensive."
Qi Laosi, wearing a cloth hat, was leaning on a cane and talking slowly. Next to him was his eldest daughter Qi Yu, who was supporting him.
Qi Yu was dressed in the uniform of a flying bird soldier and tidied up neatly, which attracted the envy of the diners around her.
Chen Laoshi laughed and cursed:
"Old man, here you are showing off your daughter again."
"Honest brother!"
Qi Laosi was overjoyed when he saw Chen Laoshi. He came over on crutches and said excitedly:
"Brother Honest, after so many years of separation, I finally see you again. I knew you would definitely come."
Chen Laoshi chuckled:
"This is a great day for our country of Han. Of course I will come."
"Not only am I here this time, but my entire family is here as well. My calf, now the Southeast Governor of Dingxiang Guard, was dragged here by me."
Qi Laosi’s eyes lit up:
"Governor of the Southeast, Xiao Niu is awesome. Come, Xiaoyu, I've met my uncle. This is the Uncle Chen I told you about. We have a life-long friendship."
Qi Yu greeted Chen Laoshi, said a few words, and then turned to leave. She was in Feiniao Camp, and today's military affairs were also heavy and tight.
Looking at Qi Yu's back, Chen Laoshi said with a smile:
"My eldest niece is amazing. This bird soldier's outfit looks really free and handsome."
Qi Laosi curled his lips:
"What's the use of being handsome? I haven't met a suitable person to marry yet, but I'm worried to death. Brother Honest, is your calf ready to start a family?"
Chen Laoshi’s eyes also lit up:
"Thanks to the prince, my calf has never..."
For a while, the two of them stopped looking at the tributes from all the nations outside. They leaned against each other and discussed the marriage of their children in the inn.
Outside the inn, both sides of the long street were crowded with people watching the excitement. Jingying stations to maintain order filled both sides of the street, stopping people coming and going.
In the middle of the avenue, a team of envoys from Yingte were pulling a cart with yellow horses, heading towards the imperial city. The cart was filled with all kinds of gifts, including corals, agates, pearls, and all kinds of precious gems.
…
…
Above the imperial city, Su Lu was sitting in a wheelchair, watching the tribute team below the city, marching towards the imperial city in an endless stream.
Li Qing stood next to Su Lu, with a happy and contented smile on his face.
Surrounding them, Su Yi, Su Yun, and Li Li in purple robes stood guard around the two of them. Looking outside, there were six ministers of the imperial court, and generals from all sides filled the gate tower of the imperial city.
Su Lu patted Li Qing's hand holding the wheelchair and said with a smile:
"This prosperous age will finally be as I wish..."
