Chastity Layman

Chapter 650: Sadako

  Chapter 650 Sadako

   "This is the most beautiful woman in our country, dedicated to His Excellency Duke Wei."

  Ping Yasubo, Qin Lang Mansion, the Japanese ambassador Inugami Mita, and the deputy envoys Soga Kuramaro and Monobe Renko sat kneeling on the porch.

  A woman with a white gauze covering her entire body stood beside her.

  Qin Lang held the teacup and smelled the tea lightly.

Seeing that Qin Lang didn't speak, Su Wo Cangmalu looked at the woman and signaled her eyes, so the woman took the initiative to step forward, and just took two steps, but Zhang Chao had already reprimanded him lightly, and four Qin family soldiers stepped forward immediately , pressed his hand to the handle of the knife.

These four soldiers of the Qin family were all relatives who fought with Qin Lang. There were wolf guards from Turks, silver saddle knights from Khitan, warriors from Dangxiang, and brave warriors from Sogdian with the nine surnames of Zhaowu in the Western Regions. Hire Zhejie knights, as well as extremely dark-skinned Kunlun slaves from Lingnan who are capable of long jumping, swinging and stabbing.

  The four of them are the strongest warriors under Qin Lang's command, but their appearance is indeed too fierce, and they are too tall for the short Japanese. The woman was so frightened that she trembled and limp on the ground.

  Seeing this, Zhang Chao proudly said, "Don't get close to Duke Wei easily."

  Su Wo Cangmalu realized that this Tang nobleman was probably afraid of assassins, so he hurriedly confessed and stood up, "We have no other intentions." He helped the frightened woman and lifted the veil on her body.

  Qin Lang looked around curiously, there were indeed many beauties in the later generations of Wa Kingdom, and he was enlightened by those teachers when he was young.

   "Fuck!"

  When Qin Lang saw this Japanese beauty clearly, he still couldn't help blurting out those two words. What kind of beauty is this? But this so-called Japanese beauty can really scare people to death when she raises her head.

  A face is pale, even the neck is white, white to the shoulders.

  It’s not a big deal, after all, it’s just a matter of putting on paint. In fact, women in the Tang Dynasty also liked to put on it.

   But the problem is that this Japanese girl is not only applying powder, but it is completely like painting a wall, a thick layer, which is too much.

What's even more frightening is that she shaved off her eyebrows, and then drew them in. No, she just clicked her eyebrows, with a dot on one side. Qin Lang was well-informed, but he didn't know what it was called. eyebrow shape.

Women in the Tang Dynasty also liked to trim and thrush their eyebrows. Some women even shaved off their eyebrows, and then they could freely draw various eyebrow shapes, such as willow leaf eyebrows, distant mountains, etc. Today this is tomorrow and that is, but in general It is said that shaving eyebrows and thrushes is just to look better, not to make them more ugly or even terrible.

  The four warriors were also discolored by this appearance.

  Su Wo Cangmalu thought that Qin Lang was displeased by the panicked appearance of this beauty, so he hurriedly said to her, "Laugh, laugh quickly!"

  The Japanese girl forced a smile, showing her teeth.

  Qin Lang couldn't help but blurted out another sentence.

  That **** tooth.

   It reminded him of a girl from Guizhou who had black teeth when he was 20 years old. But that girl is only a little dark, but this one has a complete mouthful of **** teeth, dark and shiny, comparable to the skin of that Kunlun warrior.

  Kunlun warriors were stunned for a long time when they saw those teeth, and almost thought they had met their compatriots.

   "The teeth are rotten?" Zhang Chao couldn't help asking.

  In fact, there are many Japanese women in Chang'an City. Many slave traders sold Japanese women, and after a little training, they became maidservants in noble families. Although they are not as popular as Silla maidservants, they are considered rare among slaves. Even in the red light district of Pingkangfang, there are many Japanese women, but I have never seen such black teeth.

   As the top aristocrat of the Japanese kingdom, Soga Cangmaro is quite talented and can speak several languages. Japanese Baekje, Silla, Goguryeo, Datang, and even some Turkic Champa.

  Hearing the question, he quickly replied, "This is called Black Tooth, and it is a representative of identity."

  According to what he said, it was the custom of the Wa country at this time, and noble women were also used to make-up. It is said that this makeup was the method of makeup of the noble ladies of the Central Plains brought back by the emissary after the Wa country sent an envoy to pay tribute to Cao Wei and was granted the seal of the king of Wei. But Qin Lang believed that he must have learned wrongly.

  By this time, make-up was popular in the noble circles of the Japanese country. Aristocratic men also apply powder to paint their lips, not to mention women, a pale face is the basic, but also eyebrows and black teeth. Eyebrow drawing is naturally to shave off the eyebrows, and then draw them.

As for the black teeth, the teeth are stained black with black water made from tea wine vinegar and iron slurry. The Japanese believe that the blackened teeth are beautiful and noble, and they are not easy to get dirty. I don’t know how they came to this conclusion. .

  Anyway, in the Japanese country, if you don’t have raised eyebrows and black teeth, it’s hard for a woman to even marry, just like in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it’s hard for women to find a partner if they don’t have small feet.

   Only those civilians and slave women will not raise their eyebrows.

  According to what Su Wo Cangmalu said, they respected Qin Lang, so they specially found a noble woman from the Japanese aristocratic country to offer it.

However, Qin Lang was disgusted. This Japanese girl really looked like a geisha she had seen in later generations, but this aesthetic was completely unacceptable. If she woke up in the middle of the night and suddenly saw such a woman beside her while she was half asleep, That's really similar to the evil ghost in the middle of the night, it's completely a Sadako.

   "You call this respect? Do you call this beauty?" Qin Lang was annoyed.

  Given his status, how many people lined up outside the door wanting to come and give gifts. There were countless beauties of all kinds, but they couldn't get in through the door, and Qin Lang would only accept the beauties bestowed by the emperor.

   "Is Duke Wei dissatisfied?" Soga Kuramaro was puzzled, "This is the most beautiful woman in Japan."

   "Japan? When did you call yourself Japan?" Qin Lang sneered twice.

  The Central Plains have always been called the Wa Kingdom, or Dongying, and some are called Fusang, Yamatai, etc., but Japan has never appeared in the Central Plains.

   It is recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas that there are Japanese people in Lelanghai, who are divided into more than a hundred countries. And another book "Lunheng" said, "In the Zhou Dynasty, the world was peaceful, Yueshang offered white pheasants, and the Japanese paid chancao (shangcao means vanilla). These are the earliest records of the Japanese in China.

  Of course, a more detailed record is that during the time of Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, the Envoy Kingdom sent envoys to pay tribute, and Emperor Guangwu also bestowed a seal, the seal of the Han Weinu King, which was later unearthed in Japan.

  However, the slave king at that time was actually just one of hundreds of national tribes in Japan, and could not represent the whole of Japan. In the period of the Three Kingdoms, Cao Wei met Yamatai from across the sea, claiming that the queen is Himiko, and there are more than 30 small countries under his control. The approximate location is actually on the Kyushu Island of later generations, and the power is quite strong.

   Wei officials were very strange about this Yamatai country at the time, where did it come from? Searching for books and historical materials, after searching for a long time, I found a record of the Wa Kingdom. At that time, I thought, don’t call it Yamatai, you are the Wa Kingdom, so Emperor Wei swiped his pen and gave the Queen’s relative, a gold seal of the King of Wei Wa, and another Give a hundred bronze mirrors.

   At this time, a country called Gou Nu who was fighting against Yamatai saw it, and immediately sent envoys to Cao Wei to request canonization. This made the officials of Cao Wei feel greatly shocked, how could such a country still have such a name.

  However, although the Yamatai Kingdom was strong, it was still defeated by Wakoku from the Kansai region. Wakoku gradually unified the islands. At this time, it is said that there have been more than 30 emperors, known as the line of ten thousand generations.

At that time, the Yamatai Kingdom was also defeated and unified by the He Kingdom, and became the local powerful nobles of the He Kingdom. There are also some Yamatai people who have retained the tribes that they occupied when they were strong in the past on the Sanhan Peninsula on the opposite side of the strait. A portion of the territory was later attached to He Guo.

  However, for the Central Plains, no matter how the dynasty changes, anyway, it is the same for the He Kingdom as the Wa People and the Wa Kingdom.

By the time of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Heguo was also very powerful, and began to communicate further with the Central Plains. Some Japanese people also read a lot of Chinese books, and suddenly felt that the word Japanese, in the dictionary, meant short and wretched, which clearly had a derogatory meaning. ah.

  Some people found that the people in the Central Plains said that the word wo represented the state of Wei. The word Wei removed the ghost and added people, which meant that the state of Wa was a state of Wei.

  Wa country lives in a corner, but he has always been the only one who fights against the three Koreas, and even allows the once powerful Baekje to pay tribute to them, as if claiming to be the overlord of the kingdom of Haidong. When will he be willing to be a vassal state of Wei?

   Too cheap.

The Japanese believed that there should be an equal relationship with the Central Plains, so Prince Shotoku wrote a letter to Yang Guang later, saying that the emperor at the sunrise sent a letter to the emperor at the sunset, and later used the title of the East Emperor to pay tribute to the West Emperor, just because he didn’t want to repeat it. Become a vassal.

Up to this mission, the Japanese are determined not to use the undervalued title of the Wa country, and they do not want to use the titles such as Dongying and Fusang given to them by the people of the Central Plains, but take the meaning of the country of the sunrise and the place where the sun shines. , officially adopted Japan as the country's title in diplomacy.

   Internally, Yamato is also used.

  The Japanese are quite short in stature, but they have strong self-esteem.

  Qin Lang is really unwilling to get used to their arrogance. This is the same as when he asked the Han envoy in the Han Dynasty, what is the difference between the Han Dynasty and my elder King Yelang?

  King Yelang's question left behind the allusion of Yelang's arrogance. Now the little Japanese king dares to call himself the emperor and Japan, which is too presumptuous.

"I heard that the Wa Kingdom is now in power in Soga Eizo, and the Wa King is just a puppet. The Ezo has recruited 25,000 soldiers and horses to cross the sea to attack Silla? You know, Silla is my Tang Dynasty The vassal state, the king of Silla is the king of Lelang County, Zhu State, who was conferred by our Tang Dynasty. If you dare to use troops against Silla, you are provoking and declaring war on my Tang Dynasty!"

"A mere 25,000 people may be called a heavy army in your Japanese country, but do you know that my Tang Dynasty has a million armors and a population of 50 million people in the world. The year before last, my Tang Dynasty sent 180,000 troops. The Turkic Khanate that controlled 400,000 people in the north was wiped out, and last winter, Zhenxiang personally led the army, and with only 12,000 Tang soldiers, he wiped out the Tuyuhun Kingdom with a population of one million and three thousand miles away."

"Twenty-five thousand people, hehe, any governor's mansion on the border of my Tang Dynasty can mobilize so many people, and my Tang Dynasty has more than 300 Zhengzhou and more than 1,000 counties. If the Japanese country is so arrogant, my Tang Dynasty At any time, we can send 100,000 troops to cross the sea and conquer the Japanese kingdom!"
