Chastity Layman 2

Chapter 361 The Alliance of Chang'an
The Zhengdan Grand Court Meeting in the second year of Zhenguan was even more lively than last year.

Without him, Li Shimin had just ascended the throne last year, and Jieli led 30 people to drink horses under the city of Chang'an. Although he withdrew his troops in the end, it was really ugly. If the emperor hadn't sent many envoys to invite these people to come to Chang'an, there would be no such thing at all. How many people are willing to come, even if they come in the end, they mainly come for the benefit of the tribute trade.

But this year is different.

"This is really the scene of the kingdom of heaven, all nations come to court, and the scene of a prosperous age."

King Qin Guozhong of Huaihua County twisted his fat body, smiling, his eyes narrowed, "Third Brother, Chang'an is good!"

This Turkic Yu Sheshe has now turned into the Huaihua County King of the Tang Dynasty. He has lived in Chang'an for a long time and does not want to return to the fortress.

After the family temple of Qin Lang and Qin Qiong was completed, the imperial court built the Qin family tree for Qin Lang and Qin Qiong. Qin Guochang insisted on joining in, and desperately wanted to write his name into the Qin family tree.

He even brazenly applied to Li Shimin to build a family temple.

The emperor really could not refuse such a request.

So now in Chang'an City, the Qin family has three family temples, which can be regarded as the only one.

Originally, this Qin Guozhong worshiped Qin Qiong as his adoptive father, and no one really took it seriously, but now that the genealogy is entered and the family temple is repaired, Qin Guochang has completely become the Qin family, and he has also become Qin Qiong's adopted son. Became Qin Lang's elder brother.

On the day Qin Guozhong officially entered the family tree, he sent ten grains of cattle and sheep to Qin Qiong and Qin Lang, each with ten thousand heads, which is really arrogant and inhumane.

But Qin Guozhong doesn't care, he just feeds cattle and sheep, he has no less than [-].

Qin Guozhong was a clever man, he gave ten grains of cattle and sheep to his father and brothers, and another ten grains to the court and the emperor on the other side.

The emperor was very happy to get Qin Guozhong's cattle and sheep. In a blink of an eye, he named Qin Guozhong the general of Zuo Wuwei, and entered the rank of general of the town army.

The matter of Princess Shang has also been confirmed, and she will get married on the eighth day of the first lunar month.

"Jieli has already knelt down, do you think Zhufan can't be moved?"

Although Xieli bluffed and sent several people to Chang'an to make troubles, they still couldn't match the reality.

Seeing that the relationship is getting more and more tense, and Datang has completely controlled Shuofang and Daibei, and Tuli and Tang Ting are flirting again, Jieli still panics after all.

Finally, under Li Shimin's request, Jieli finally had to send Zhishisili to pay homage to the emperor and renew the covenant.

Only this time, Datang's attitude was very tough. The Turks could no longer get an equal status with Datang.

Datang also asked Jieli to recognize the emperor of Tang Dynasty as Tian Khan, and the Turkic Khan should also submit his allegiance to Tian Khan.

After going back and forth, the relationship was completely reversed. At the beginning of Wude, it was the Turks who wanted Tang to be a vassal.

As soon as he was unable to hold back his thoughts and objected, the officials of Honglu Temple stopped talking, let's fight, wait until Tang's iron cavalry steps into Shanyutai, cut down the golden wolf flag, and then arrest Jieli to Chang'an to dance for the emperor up.

After doing this several times, his mental strength also collapsed. He was very aware of Xieli's current predicament, and he really didn't dare to turn against Datang now.

In desperation, the Chang'an Alliance was finally signed at the end of the year.

Xieli respectfully called Tang emperor Li Shimin his uncle, respected Tang emperor Li Shimin as Tian Khan, and recognized the legal rationality of Datang's recovery of the lands of Shuofang and Daibei.At the same time, according to the request of the Tang Dynasty, Xieli no longer supported the small post-Sui court in Dingxiang.

And Xieli also agreed to lead his troops back to the Mobei Khan Court before next winter, and use the desert as the boundary in the future.

This covenant can be described as the surrender of the Turks.

This covenant has shocked countless people.

And before the covenant was concluded, after Tang recovered Shuofang and Daibei, Jieli's performance also let the barbarians in all directions know the strong rise of the Tang Dynasty in the Central Plains, so there were especially many barbarians this time.

On the other hand, the barbarians made a lot of money in the tribute trade last year, so more people came to trade with them this time.

As for the imperial court, for the sake of the celestial dynasty's dignity, it is of course willing to present this scene of coming from all directions.Nanyang, Southwest and other countless small countries, even the names are heard for the first time, and some missions, business groups, etc. have come, no matter where you come from, since you have reported your name, the court will recognize.

Even the dozens of small city-states and small oasis countries in the Western Regions were originally under the control of the Western Turks, and this time they all came to pay tribute and trade under the banner of missions.

Even the Asan brothers from the Tianzhu mainland had hundreds of missions. For example, in Jieri Kingdom, there were hundreds of small princes who came to pay tribute under their own banners.

All in all, under the arrangement of Honglu Temple officials, the missions with the national flags of thousands of countries, all kinds of skin colors, all kinds of appearances, and their robes, will pass through Zhuque Tianjie.

Shili Suzaku Street is very lively today, early in the morning there are countless people watching on both sides of the road.

"Why are these people so black, blacker than Kunlun slaves, black as charcoal, which country are they from?"

"It seems to be called Egypt! Look at the sphinx flag they are flying. It is said that this is the guardian animal of their country. What about the sphinx, isn't it strange?"

"Last time I read in the newspaper that after the death of the kings and nobles of this country of Egypt, they would cut their stomachs open, take out all the internal organs and feed them to the sphinx, and then fill their stomachs with spices, and then use the white Die cloth, wrap the whole person up, call it Mu Nai Yin or something, put it in the repaired golden tower, it can be stored for thousands of years without decay!"

"Nonsense, how can there be such a sphinx beast in this world?"

Immediately, someone retorted, "Why not? You haven't seen a dragon. Do you dare to say that there are no dragons or phoenixes in China? It's just that you don't see them much now, and it's not like they don't exist!"

This is irrefutable.

And some people boasted there that they had seen the unicorn brought from Egypt.

"That unicorn has a long neck, and it must be three to five feet high. The spots on its body are very beautiful. It looks a bit like a deer, but it is different. In short, I have seen this unicorn in real life."

"Why are Egyptian unicorns with such long necks? Our Chinese unicorns don't have long necks either?"

"I heard that the trees in Egypt grow taller. It may be that the unicorn stretches its neck every day to eat the leaves on the higher places, so it grows longer."

"Shouldn't unicorns eat meat?"

·······
"Look at how these people look like white bears, with red beards and green eyes, it's scary!"

"It is said that these are people from the country of wandering ghosts and the country of Yasha!"

"Could it be someone from Yinquan Difu?"

"No, they went out of Liaodong and went northeast to the ice and snow for thousands of miles until the end of the land. They are a group of people who live in that ice and snow world. It is said that they hunt giant white bears and beluga whales for a living, pull carts with dogs, and live in igloos in the snow. The room is very sturdy."

·······
It has to be said that the foreign missions from all sides came to the DPRK, which is like an exhibition, which amazed the people of Chang'an.

The blacks from the Spice Islands in the Kunlun Sea in the distant South Ocean, and the Egyptians from the southern coast of the Mediterranean Sea in the far west, they are even darker.

There are even people from the country of Liugui and Yaksha from the extreme north, all of them have fur all over their bodies, like a thick beast.

Not to mention, Honglu Temple also specially arranged for various Tibetan missions to put some local specialties of animals and animals brought by them in cages, and exhibit them together behind the team.

The giraffe is called the unicorn, the ostrich is called the giant bird, and there are countless rare animals such as huskies, polar bears, and lions, which open the eyes of Chang'an people.

Qin Lang specially put on the golden armor, phoenix-winged helmet, lion belt, unicorn-swallowing shoulder beast, Mingyuan heart-protecting mirror that was bestowed on him by the Great General of Fuguo today...

However, Qin Qiong's outfit was more stylish than Qin Lang's, with real gold-plated armor, the number one hussar general in the Tang Dynasty, followed by a whole square team of Qianniuwei military officers.

Qin Guozhong, the king of Huaihua County and the general of the town army, joined Qin Lang. His sons also had official positions such as guerrilla generals, and they were all wearing armor.

The strong lineup of the Qin family, the king, the prince, the prince of the county, and the prince of the county, also caused the people all over Chang'an to scream in surprise.

At the court meeting, Li Shimin was very satisfied with his name today.

The scene of coming from all directions to congratulate and court from all directions greatly satisfied his vanity.

In front of the envoys of various countries, Zhishisili led a Turkic dance on behalf of Jieli Khan, and Teqin Ashina Simo, who was once bestowed by Li Yuan as the king of Huaishun County, sang an imperial edict for Li Shimin. Le Chuan.

And Li Shimin asked Qin Guochang, the king of Huaihua County who belonged to him, to take his son and Turkic nobles to perform a large-scale court music and dance, Qin Wang's Breaking the Array.

A total of [-] attached Turks and other barbarians performed together.

The momentum of King Qin's formation music is indeed astonishing, the dazzling and gorgeous armor, the majestic drum music, and the neat movements, especially the Turkic, Khitan, Xi, Nanman, Nanyi and other tribes wearing their own tribe's armor clothes. In that performance, when they cooperated so tacitly, it really shocked the Turkic nobles such as Zhishisili and Ashina Simo, and also deeply shocked the noble envoys sent by Turkhan Khan and Tie Le. shocked.

As for those small tribes like the country of the ghosts, the country of Yasha, the country of Kalupo, etc., they were even more astonished.

When the Tibetan envoys met with the Tang emperor, they knelt more actively and lowered their waists. They all touched their foreheads to the floor tiles, showing their sincere awe.

But the kings of the dozens of small city-states in the Western Regions and the leaders of many Western Turkic tribes were secretly alarmed.

It took only one year for the people of Tang to surrender Jieli, so the next step is to go west?
In front of the Tibetan diplomatic corps, Zhishisili read out the Tang-Tu Chang'an Covenant in public, recognized the vassal states of Turks and Tang, and recognized Emperor Tang as the Heavenly Khan that Turks and other tribes enshrined.

Qin Lang's position in this year's Great Court Meeting was a little higher.

Although neither father nor son served as prime ministers anymore, they were former prime ministers after all, not to mention that Qin Qiong is now the only three masters and three masters in the court. As a former prime minister, he directly ranked first among military officials.

Qin Lang is also a military official now, and he is only a second-rank general of the auxiliary country, but with his [-] household seals and his cross hero title, he is directly behind Qin Qiong, ranking first among military generals. two.

Qin Guozhong, on the other hand, took the rank of the king of Huaihua County, the rank of general of the town army, and the rank of general Zuo Wuwei ranked first among the officials.

In the front of the row, you can see the unstoppable smile of the emperor on Yuchi more clearly, and of course you can also threaten the envious and even jealous eyes from behind.
