The imperial palace in Yangyi City was transformed from the past Parthian palace.

Still has a strong Parthian style.

Many palaces even just demolished the gods carved on the walls and sculptures erected in the garden.

Then he replaced it with the sculptures of the great cause of conquest by the Emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty and the statues of various ancestors.

For example, just before Xia Yi, there was a mural carved with Confucius asking about Laozi.

Around it, there are famous quotes from the "Tao Te Ching".

The Emperor Li Ling of the Great Wei Dynasty was the descendant of Laozi.

This is true and clear.

There are family genealogies and historical records.

To a certain extent, Li Ling can also call himself the descendant of Yao and Shun after Tang and Yu.

"Empress, who is better, what you see is the rule of my country or the Prime Minister of Han?" Li Ling walked to Xia Yi in plain clothes and under the protection of several tall and burly warriors, and asked softly.

When Xia Yi heard this, he turned around and smiled at Li Ling: "Your Excellency, in this Western place, we will promote culture and education, eliminate bad customs, and break the wind. Even if the Prime Minister knows it, he will probably praise you!"

Li Ling listened and smiled proudly.

"But..." Xia Yigong said: "If you want to compare with the Prime Minister's rule, it may be far from enough!"

"Now, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Kuang Bi, and his capable ministers, govern the world together, promote industry and commerce, govern the rivers, and spread education, and accumulate benevolence and righteousness within and spread education outside. From the North Sea to the Pamir Mountains, from the West Sea to Funan, one hundred and thirty-six counties, a country of 30,000 miles, lives and works in peace and contentment..."

"The king's army crossed the sea east to Fusang, and fought in the south and built Xinjiangdu..."

"So, everyone in the world praised him and said, "Only the Prime Minister can safeguard the world, assist the emperor, and enrich the people and promote education!"

"Although the little minister is despicable, I also saw it in the newspaper that last year, the Han family had 136 counties and states, including county school gardens, 378 schools, and among the town pavilions, there were 7,625 primary school schools. The number of scholars was enrolled in one million. The Taixue and Wuyuan were recorded every year was 30,000 scholars!"

"I also heard from the Shaofu and the Censor's Residence that the county and county in the world had 9.2 million households, more than 47 million Dingkou, more than 13 million hectares of land were established, and a total of more than 2,300 miles of rivers were built, more than 1,300 canals were irrigated, and more than 4 million hectares of land were irrigated, and more than 300 roads were more than 7 feet long. The total length was more than 18,000 miles, and more than 5,000 miles of carriages could be used..."

"Last year in Guanzhong, there were 350 million kilograms of pig iron, 67 million kilograms of crude steel, and 10 million kilograms of fine steel!"

"In addition, last year, just Shaofu, he weaved three million pieces of silk cloth, seven million pieces of cotton cloth, and more than three million pieces of wool materials..."

"I heard that Emperor Gao said, "How can I get three thousand buildings in Guangsha to shelter all the poor men in the world!"

"Today, the Prime Minister's rule has already reached this point!"

Li Ling listened, his face full of disbelief.

Because, if what the Han envoy said was true.

That means that the Han Dynasty today is ten times stronger than it was back then!

Not to mention the other side, the production of pig iron and cloth in the Han Dynasty last year was enough to drown him and his Western Wei regime.

Xia Yi looked at it and said, "If you don't believe it, you can send a delegation to Chang'an..."

"You can even ask Wei Lu who is poisonous..."

Li Ling then remembered that last year Wei Lu sent someone to tell him that the Han army had controlled the southern part of the body, and also discovered these Han people, using iron rods that could spit fire and bronze cannons that emitted thunder.

According to the people sent by Wei Lu, "The Han soldiers took fire rods as the front and thunder as the back. When the enemy came with smoke from gunpowder, they often came with smoke from white smoke, and the death was insignificant, and they were thunderous. The sound was like thunder, and they were eroded for dozens of miles in one shot."

At that time, Li Ling thought Wei Lu was talking about myths.

A erosion cost dozens of miles?

Even if a god descends to earth, it is impossible for Zhang Zizhong to do so.

But now, the Han envoy was very confident and had detailed data, so he had to believe it.

In this letter, Li Ling's voice was a little weaker, and his confidence began to be a little lacking.

So he said, "I dare to ask the envoy, why did the Prime Minister of Han send you here?"

"Of course, listen to your words and watch your actions..." Xia Yi smiled and said, "Before leaving, the Prime Minister specially instructed: If you can practice the kingly way in this place of Taixi, use the Chinese system to change customs, you should make contributions to the emperor before the emperor..."

Li Ling heard this and laughed: "When I look at it from the messenger, can I practice the kingly way and change the customs in this place of Taixi?"

"I dare not hide it from you..." Xia Yi lowered his head and said, "Since entering the country, the mission has been vivid in his eyes. What he heard with his own ears, they all think that your rule is close to the rule of a gentleman!"

"Hahaha..." Li Ling laughed loudly as he heard this.

Then he asked, "Then, will the Prime Minister perform his merits for me?"

"If you can follow the times and know the great righteousness..." Xia Yi said: "The Prime Minister said that only by appointing the king and establishing a title can you repay the king's merits!"

"In the opinion of the little minister, if you can follow the time of heaven and send envoys to the court, the Prime Minister and the Emperor will definitely ignore the past grudges. I wish you good deeds and promise that you will be the lord of Taixi..."

Li Ling began to ponder when he heard this.

If envoys were sent to surrender, they could be exchanged for the Han Dynasty's canonization and various permits.

In particular, if he and his subordinates are pardoned and canonized, it doesn't matter if he sends envoys to surrender.

After all, now Han and him are more than tens of thousands of miles apart?

No matter how strong the Han Dynasty was, it was impossible to cross such a long distance and mobilize an army of tens of thousands of thousands to cross the mountains and seas to attack him.

On the contrary, if Han acknowledges the legitimacy of him and his regime.

Then, he could obtain a steady stream of silk, cloth, iron tools, and even talents and technology from the Han Dynasty.

In this way, he and his descendants can gain a foothold in the West for a long time.

Thinking of this, Li Ling looked at Xia Yi and said, "If the envoy can convince the Prime Minister and agree to my three conditions, then I will not be unable to agree to send an envoy into the court and become a Han minister!"

"Please say it, your lord!"

"First..." Li Ling said: "The Emperor of Han should confer my title as King of Tang, at least, he should also be Duke of Tang!"

Well, since Li Ling conquered Parthia, went deep into Egypt, and established a widespread rule, he had the idea of ​​changing the country's name.

After all, the so-called Great Wei now has two emperors.

All fools know that there is no two suns in heaven and no two masters in earth.

One country and two monarchs are not a long-term solution.

In fact, Li Ling had already had the will to establish a new country and redefine the legal system.

Xia Yi nodded and said, "I can guarantee this matter that the Prime Minister and the Emperor must agree!"

Just a king, it’s not that he has never been granted a title!

Li Ling was overjoyed and continued, "The second thing is that Han should not make things difficult for our merchants anymore. We must ensure that our business travel can pass freely, enter the inner county, and trade with the Han..."

"The little minister will report to the Prime Minister..."

"This third..." Li Ling took a deep breath and said, "I heard that my first wife had a son left behind in the past. Fortunately, she was protected by her ancestors. Her brother saved her. She regarded her as her own son. She was not abandoned by the Prime Minister and took care of her. She was taken care of by many of her..."

"If the Prime Minister is generous, please come here..."

Li Ling bowed and said, "From then on, I will be grateful and leave for the Prime Minister, and I will never refuse!"

After saying that, he bowed deeply.

Although Li Ling has had more than one child over the years, even more than one child has been born.

Especially after coming to the West, many beauties contributed, and they can be said to be a long and endless descendants.

But in the end, these descendants all have the blood of barbarians.

Moreover, in Li Ling's heart, he always insisted that the legitimate son was the first.

In the past, he didn't know that he had a legitimate son, so he regarded the son born to him and the Xiongnu princess as his legitimate son.

But since his first wife left him a posthumous son.

Then, there is no doubt that his only legal heir is the last son he has never met!

But the problem is that the child doesn't know his own background.

Moreover, I have always lived in Chang'an, under the protection and surveillance of the prime minister.

Unless the prime minister speaks, the father and son will never be able to recognize each other.

"Your Majesty, don't worry!" Xia Yi laughed, "Before leaving, the Prime Minister had given a request that the father and son's flesh and blood could not be blocked even if there were thousands of mountains and rivers..."

"If you are sincere and sincere, I wish the emperor, you will be rewarded with good reward!"

Li Ling heard this and immediately became happy: "What the envoy said is deeply appreciated by my heart!"

Xia Yi lowered his head and said, "I dare not hide it from you. Before coming, the Prime Minister also had an instructor to ask the minister to convey to you..."

"Please say it to me!"

"I am now thirteen years old, and after several years, I will be crowned..."

"The Prime Minister hopes that you can offer a land from this land of Taixi to the emperor to crown the emperor!"

Li Ling listened and looked nervous.

After all, he was not stupid, and he knew that the Hun Maodun Chanyu could even wear a cuckold, but because he could not bear the shame of cutting the soil.

"Your Majesty, don't worry..." Xia Yi saw Li Ling's doubts. He took out a piece of silk cloth from his arms and handed it to Li Ling, saying, "What the Prime Minister asked for is just a barren land and a land of the wild Gobi..."

Li Ling took the silk cloth and saw a piece of land enclosed on the silk cloth.

After a closer look, it was a barren land under his rule, covering the corner of the bay, the Gobi, the desert, and even the oasis.

That place is not so much under his rule now, but rather under his control.

Two years ago, Li Ling appointed a submissive Persian noble to the place. In the end, the other party ran back within a month and ran back in a mess. When asked about the reason, it turned out that the local area was drought and waterless, so I couldn't stand it.

So, in fact, if the Han people just want it, there is no problem at all.

Anyway, that place cannot support people.

Moreover, the distance between Han and that place is more than tens of thousands of miles away?

Even if they send someone, how can they persist?
