Chapter 570 Japanese Tribute

At the suggestion of Liangchuan, Niedo Castle Rai Toshiro mobilized tens of thousands of migrant workers, dug moats and built walls to develop Edo into the first strong city in Kanto. Not only was the city high and the river deep, but the city planning and construction were the largest in the history of the island country. All the military and civilians and the Hei clans' subordinates were dumbfounded and amazed when they arrived in Edo Castle. No matter who said that Genji was powerful, it was invincible in the world.

Bian Qing was also full of pride when he saw Edo Castle. After traveling to the world with Liangchuan, he knew the poverty of Kansai. The Hirashi family would definitely lose, and Genji was the general trend to gain the world. He had even seen the Hirashi palace, which was not as good as the houses that an ordinary family in the Song Dynasty lived in.

The only hand that the entire island country can do is Edo Castle, but they were shocked by the comparison between Edo Castle and the imperial city of Bianjing, the Song Dynasty.

The walls of the imperial palace of the Song Dynasty were ten times higher than those of Edo Castle. The tower was taller than the mountain and thicker than the ground. It was irresistible and majestic samurai standing on it.

The gate of Bianjing City is enough to allow four or eight to carry sedan chairs to come in and out. It is not difficult for twenty warriors to ride tall horses in a row! Or if they were short Japanese, they would be afraid that thirty people would be able to stuff them.

Bian Qing's face turned red. Their Edo New Town was similar to a thatched house in the Song Dynasty...

Not to mention Bian Qing, the other Japanese were dazzled when they saw Bian Jing City. The Song Dynasty had already beaten them in this momentum.

But the Japanese people's psychology was quite dark. At this time, they were not thinking about surrendering to the Song Dynasty, but their ambitions were constantly expanding. They only had one idea. How could such a good place allow the stupid and useless nations of the Song Dynasty to occupy it? If they could defeat this flower world...

If the Song army knew the thoughts of these dwarves, I’m afraid they would never come back this time!

The group passed Xuande Gate and Daqing Hall. Looking up, it was the square where the ceremony was held before Daqing Hall, and in the center was Daqing Hall.

The houses in Bianjing City have opened their eyes to these Japanese people. Only when they see the palaces in the imperial city can they know what style and what palaces are!

The golden glass bright red lacquer, coupled with the towering pillars surrounded by several hugs, rows of palaces have truly opened up the world. It turns out that there are such a big house in this world, and this is the building worthy of the common ruler of the world!

Zhao Zhen, the official of the Song Dynasty, was sitting on the dragon throne at this time. Although he looked very expectant, he also showed a lazy look. He was wearing a gorgeous dragon robe with a golden hat, and looked extraordinary. There were even yellow palace maids on the left and right, all of whom were wearing dresses. The following officials were in awe-inspiring manner. Everyone was quietly waiting for the arrival of the Japanese envoys. A bright red silk carpet was covered in the middle of the imperial road, and the imperial soldiers were covered with imperial soldiers on both sides. A hundred thousand imperial guards declared the military muscles of the Song Dynasty.

Such a magnificent palace seems to be in the sky. Legend has it that the palace in the sky is so magnificent. Jade pillars hold the sky and carve dragons and paint phoenixes and red walls, all officials and the emperor's ceremonial guards are coming, and the people who cannot control their aura begin to sway their calves.

There are nine etiquette officials standing from Daqing Hall to Daqing Gate. When the envoy walked to a place, the etiquette officials shouted loudly to the envoys, with a majestic momentum, and then walked to the next one and then continued to relay loudly.

The imperial guards on both sides were the most elite and advanced. They were wearing golden armor on the outside, holding golden gourds in their hands, and red silk linings inside. They blew the drumming soldiers and shouted loudly. The mighty slogans of the Great Song Dynasty's great Song Dynasty were heard in the imperial city, which made the palace tremble.

The envoy sent by the Japanese team was not Bian Qing, but Amao. Because of Liang Chuan, after he left, Yuan Lai Chao not only did not make things difficult for her but gave her quite superior treatment. She was directly named Queen, with the identity of Yuan Yoshitsuki's wife, equivalent to being the princess of the Song Dynasty, and her status was extremely respectful.

Yuan Lai Chao gave Acama a new name, called Izumo Aguo, which means that the sun rises and white clouds fly from afar.

Not only was Bian Qing, the guard beside Yuan Yijing, a man who was appointed as the gods by the people, but even Amao, a poor fisherman, also had a new identity.

It is said that the strange woman Genyosu met through traveling around the world. She gave Genyosu countless helps and overcome many difficulties together. When it comes to Genyosu, people are extremely respectful to them. Even the villagers who were rescued by Genyosuke in Kansai built a shrine for him.

The accident in Izumo Aguo was naturally mythological.

Since Liang Chuan returned to the Song Dynasty, Aguo has been having fun all day long. Although life has been better, happiness is like it has disappeared forever. As a woman, Yuan Lai Chao can not understand her feelings.

For her, wealth and glory were not as good as the time when the three of them traveled together in Guanzhong. They could see the beautiful scenery of the world, but simply roast a fish and eat it full.

Just as Ah Guo also spoke Chinese. After unifying Japan, Genji also wanted to learn the advanced technology of the Han people when he sent the Tang envoys to learn the advanced technology of the Han people. Now, since Liang Chuan's guidance, he has a nouveau riche mentality and must come to the Song Dynasty to spend some money.

Genji saw Aguo's troubles and took this opportunity to send her out!

She had long wanted to try the beauty of the Song Dynasty.

When Aguo heard that he could see the dog he was thinking about, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep.

No matter whether you are a general from Japan or the emperor of the Song Dynasty, she only has the man Liang Chuan in her eyes.

As soon as the Song Dynasty got ashore, they started to inquire whether there was anyone named Liang Chuan. However, when they asked about it, others always gave him a blank look and said fiercely: "Liang Chuan? I haven't heard of it!"

It's really just like A Gouyuan said that he is really inconspicuous in the Song Dynasty, with ordinary and ordinary people like him everywhere.

The delegation walked under the imperial stairs of Daqing Hall and held its pace.

On the right side of the imperial stairs was placed, and Song Min asked for a loud voice to proclaim: "Come and send a message to you to the envoy to bow your rituals and present a message to you."

Aguo held the tribute sign written with island characters and Chinese characters in his hands and placed them on the table with a solemn expression. The best sandalwood was burned on the table, and the blue smoke floated into the air repeatedly. Aguo leaned over and performed the ceremony of kneeling three kneelings and nine kowtows on the tribute sign. These procedures were based on ancient classics imitated the etiquette performed by the Tang envoys.

The Song Dynasty learned the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty, and the island countries also reviewed the documents and verified them. They were afraid that they would lose face if they made a fool of themselves, so the two sides carried out invisible tacit understanding. After the tribute was released, the internal officials took it away and presented it to the official family. The followers following Ah Guo presented the tribute one by one.

There were items such as Japanese swords and armor in the tribute. Everyone was surprised to see it. They either gave jewelry or treasures or some weapons? What were the barbarians?

After delivering the weapon, several women stood directly behind the counter. Zhao Zhen was young and curious, and wanted to see what treasures the king of Japan had presented him with. He was a little curious when he saw the Japanese sword. Fortunately, these women were a little puzzled. Sitting next to Zhao Zhen, he hurriedly asked Song Min, "What is Song Qing and the others mean?"

Song Minqiu was ashamed, and blushed and bent down and explained to Empress Dowager Liu in a low voice: "Go back to Empress Dowager, this is the tribute from the King of Japan...beauty..."

Zhao Zhen was a little embarrassed. Although the Japanese woman had a bit ugly appearance, she was still very happy!

Zhao Zhen was so happy that the others couldn't stand it anymore!

Empress Dowager Liu was so anxious that she almost jumped up from the phoenix chair, stretched her neck and looked at the so-called "beauties" who paid tribute below the steps. They were all beautiful women, all of whom had thick lips and made up like ghosts.

"I've given all the fairies and ghosts to me!"

The Queen Mother couldn't stop him even if she was angry.

Song Minqiu didn't want to mess up this good ceremony. He, the host of the Hajj ceremony, was well-known to be in history, and messed up the bad news for thousands of years.

He hurriedly explained: "The Empress Dowager calmed down, the Japanese were not yet transformed, and Yu Li was not familiar with each other. Our Celestial Song Dynasty should have the spirit of the Celestial Dynasty. After all, they came to pay tribute sincerely. How could our Chinese Kingdom be as knowledgeable as them?"

Empress Dowager Liu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Scholar Song is still thinking carefully, but these fairies cannot let the officials suffer the disaster. Find a place to settle them. The Ai family will deal with them in the future."

Zhao Zhen also had a blush on his face. Why did the country pay tribute to the emperor of another country to give women nakedly? He said seriously: "Song Aiqing asked him to come and let him flatter him. If you have any questions, please ask her."

When A Guoping stood up, Zhao Zhen looked at the little girl, and didn't think there was anything different about her. She had the same skin and the same face, all the faces of the Han family.

"Come and ask me, who is the emperor of Japan today?"

Aguo said: "When the emperor is the emperor of Tooba."

"Emperor?" Zhao Zhen was a little displeased. When the ministers heard this, they were all stunned. The Japanese little country, to put it bluntly, is a small overseas landlord, so brave. The official family claims to be the emperor and dares to be the emperor. Wouldn't it be above the official family?

Bian Qing said: "But I was escorted by the command of General Genji to Aguo, not by the Emperor."

Bian Qing asked Aguo to translate his words, but Bian Qing didn't speak Chinese.

Zhao Zhen said: "Do your country listen to the emperor or the general?"

Aguo replied on behalf of Bian Qing: "The emperor's status is supreme. The general manages the country for the emperor. Both of them must listen to their words."

A country has only one absolute authority, and Aguo's words are ruthless. The fact is that the national conditions of Japan are different from those of the Song Dynasty, so the ministers and Zhao Zhen were both surprised by Aguo's words.

Zhao Zhen asked again: "What is the purpose of the general sending you here?"

A Guodao: "The general admires the customs and culture of the Song Dynasty and his splendid culture. He specially sent us to establish brotherly diplomatic relations with the Song Dynasty so that the two countries can communicate with each other, trade and trade with each other, and communicate with each other."

Zhao Zhen smiled and said, "My Song Dynasty is vast and vast, with abundant resources. What do you need to communicate with you Japan? Do you want to establish brotherly diplomatic relations with me Song Dynasty, but do you know that the basis of diplomatic relations is based on the equal strength of the two countries. Do you have this strength?"

Aguo was born in a humble family, and he did not have the current situation until Liang Chuan's fate turned around. She did not understand the game between these great powers. If Zhao Zhen asked her, she neither knew how to answer, nor did she think there was anything to worry about.

On the other hand, the attitude of the Song Dynasty was different. There has been a bad habit in all dynasties over thousands of years.

If other countries are willing to bow to you and recognize that you are the lord of the country and want money, and food, if you want to ride on your own, besides you have first-class strength, you will be beaten to the ground even if you have exhausted your money and food.

There is a very wonderful mentality of going to the country.

Seeing that Aguo was speechless for a moment, Bian Qing asked him what the emperor of the Song Dynasty said. Aguo translated Zhao Zhen’s words word by word.

Although Bian Qing is also a political Bai Ding, he is not a fool. He has become smart after following Liang Chuan for so long. Moreover, the people of their island countries have a characteristic, which is that they only recognize the strong, not your culture and long history, which is all over the world.

Bian Qing opened his eyes wide and looked directly at Zhao Zhen, an official in the Song Dynasty, whispered: "Emperor of the Song Dynasty, your army has more than our people, and your equipment is also more powerful than our elite. Along the way, we were scared by your force. But..."

Aguo translated.

"But what?" Zhao Zhen asked.

"But half of your home in the north was occupied by the Liao people for a hundred years and could not be recovered. Our general has unified Kansai and Kanto, and the entire Japan is under the rule of our general, so..."

Pain! Heartache! The occupation of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun and Liaodong by the Liao people has always been a pain in the hearts of the Song people. This Japanese man seemed to be big and thick, but he didn't expect that he could speak so well. He could hit the pain in the hearts of all Han people in one sentence!
