Section 114: The Messenger of Huihe

Li Yuanxing issued a very strange order, which the guards did not understand.

Li Jing, who really saw the intention of Li Yuanxing's order, couldn't help but laugh. This King of Qin was really young. During the war, he was still in the mood to play such a small game. But it was a good thing. During the war, the coach did not panic.

Half the battle is won, and judging from Li Yuanxing's strategy, this young His Highness the King of Qin is extremely intelligent and very good at understanding people's psychology.

Let’s talk about a battle of wits!

Li Jing believed that even the eldest grandson Fox would avoid King Qin, because even if he wins, he will be very tired!

Li Yuanxing did not change his clothes, but directly asked the Huihe envoy to wait for him in the living room.

What is the costume of the Uighur people? Li Yuanxing has not studied it in detail, but the person in front of him is dressed differently from the Turks. When he saw the other person stood up and performed a chest-supporting salute, Li Yuanxing waved his hand: "I don't have formal clothes.

, I’m being negligent.” After saying that, he said to the bodyguard: “Serve tea, use my king’s tea.”

King Qin’s tea!

The Uighur envoy did not think too much. In his opinion, this was the goodwill and courtesy of King Qin of the Tang Dynasty.

A sheepskin scroll was taken out from the envoy's arms and handed to Lu Chengqing with both hands. The envoy then said: "I come from the desert. The Turks are like wolves in the grassland, and his Han servants are like insidious wolves."

Foxes. They are sucking the blood of our Uighurs. We Uighurs are not afraid of fighting, but we are not willing to shed our blood in vain on the grasslands!"

Li Yuanxing felt an inexplicable excitement in his heart.

According to research by modern historians, the Turks were at odds with various tribes because of the existence of Zhao Yande.

Uighur was not the only one, but he was the first to make a choice.

The Uighur envoy continued: "I came out with the army of the Turkic Zuoxian King. My people and our sheep were enslaved. But I still have to come out, because only with the Tang Dynasty can I have a chance to find the Uighurs.

Friends! Those sheep are the trophies of the Tang army. I am willing to offer them as gifts and our sincerity in returning to the grasslands!"

There is a gift list on the sheepskin, and the Turkic rear formation has belonged to the Tang Dynasty.

Then, these gifts are equivalent to what is owed, and the Uighurs will definitely give them to those who have the messenger's staff. What they say represents the entire Uighurs. Li Yuanxing does not doubt the sincerity of the messenger!

Lu Chengqing wanted to open the parchment and show it to Li Yuanxing.

"Don't look! The intention is not the quantity!" Li Yuanxing refused to look at the gift list. No matter what the gifts were, Li Yuanxing didn't take it to heart at all.

After getting up and taking a few steps forward, the Uighur envoy also quickly stood up.

"I am the King of Qin in the Tang Dynasty, General Tiance. I also give you three gifts. As long as you are sincere in Huihe, then this gift from me will be like the sun in the sky, giving you a warm winter in Huihe!

"

"Thank you, King Qin, for your kindness!"

If there was a gift, what kind of gift would it be? The Uighur envoy felt his heart beat faster.

"Lu Zhubo, go and make arrangements. In the rear camp, the Uighur people camp alone. Give them tents, sheep, food, and wine!" Before Li Yuanxing could say anything, the Uighur envoy knelt down.

Kneeling down: "Thank you to the King of Qin in the Tang Dynasty for your kindness, thank you to the Tang Dynasty, and thank you to the King of Qin!"

Li Yuanxing stretched out his hand to help the Uighur envoy: "No need to kneel. If you have to kneel in this way, what will you do later?" Li Yuanxing's words made the Uighur envoy confused, and he did not understand what Li Yuanxing was talking about at all.

The tea was delivered at this time, and Li Yuanxing personally brought the cup to the Uighur envoy: "Try the tea that I like!"

The Uighur people drink tea, and tea is an important commodity in the Uighur people. They eat too much meat, and drinking tea can make people feel better. What they drink is brick tea, which is made with milk.

Li Yuanxing drank clear tea, Longjing tea.

The ordinary glass cup from modern times is so precious in the eyes of the Uighur envoys. The tea leaves hanging in the water look like they have just been picked, and the green tea soup passes through the glass cup for the Uighurs to use.

I couldn't bear to shake the cup and take a sip with a respectful mood.

Bitter, very bitter.

But after the bitterness, there was an indescribable fragrance surrounding him, and the Uighur envoy was a little intoxicated by the sweetness between his teeth and cheeks.

Li Yuanxing said at this time: "The first gift this king gives to you Huihe is tea. You Huihe can buy unlimited tea from Datang, and the price is the same as the market price!"

The Uighur envoy quickly put down his cup and knelt down on his knees: "The Uighur people thank King Qin of the Tang Dynasty!"

Li Yuanxing said to himself, Okay. This time I changed to kneeling on both knees. Okay, I'll see how you can kneel later.

"Drinking tea, tea is not only a medicine, a drink, but also a culture. Drinking tea can be called the Tao!" Li Yuanxing was deceiving, letting the Huihe people learn to enjoy tea first. Li Yuanxing believed

I am sure that within one year, Datang's tea production will increase ten times.

As long as there is market demand, there will definitely be no shortage of people growing tea.

The Uighur envoy just nodded. He was here to seek peace, not to raise conditions. Even if he wanted to make a request, he would have to observe the current situation and the mood of King Qin of the Tang Dynasty before raising conditions.

"Let's talk about the second gift!" Li Yuanxing put down the tea cup, and the Uighur envoy quickly put it down as well.

In terms of identity, this Uyghur envoy was a noble of the Uyghur Yaoluoge family and the younger brother of the current Uyghur Khan. His name was Guli Ali, and he was also a person of high status in the Uyghur grassland.

But who was sitting in front of him, the King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty? Guli Ali believed that he could not be equal to the King of Qin.

So when Li Yuanxing put down his cup, he also quickly put down his cup. This was polite and sincere in seeking peace.

"Chang'an! I want to build a shaman temple in Chang'an. You Huihe merchants often come to Chang'an City, but there is no place to stay. People should be in awe, people should have gods in their hearts, and the gods in the sky will protect them.

His people, the Uighur merchants, are far away from their hometown, and they will definitely miss their hometown in a foreign land..."

Li Yuanxing started to cheat.

Li Yuanxing himself felt that his eloquence had become much better since he studied history with the cabinet master.

If he hadn't traveled to the Tang Dynasty, if he had traveled to Europe, he could have become the Pope just by relying on this mouth, and there would be absolutely no accidents.

Li Yuanxing continued to talk, describing people's feelings of being far away from home and their reverence for gods.

The Uighur envoy was stunned. First he listened in stunned silence, and then he crawled on the ground and knelt down to Li Yuanxing. This was an absolutely devout kneeling gesture!

This King Qin of the Tang Dynasty was so benevolent that it was rumored that King Qin of the Tang Dynasty came from heaven.

At this time, in the hearts of the Uighur envoys, Li Yuanxing was a god!

Uighur merchants can stay in the shaman temple in Chang'an, pray to the gods, and return to their hometown with their hearts.

The Uighur envoy was speechless. He stood up over and over again, and then prostrated himself on the ground.

Lu Chengqing was stunned. He had thought of countless ways to negotiate.

But he couldn't think of the one in front of him. Even if he was given fifty heads, he couldn't think of it.

Just looking at the movements of the Huihe envoy, Lu Chengqing knew that if His Highness the King of Qin asked the envoy to die and dedicate his life to the gods, the envoy would not hesitate at all.

Li Yuanxing continued to talk, as if he was talking about an undergraduate thesis, and did not pay attention to what the Uighur envoy was doing. Li Yuanxing raised his head, quickly organized his thoughts, and spoke in an organized manner.

Lu Chengqing did not dare to wait any longer, not because he was afraid that Li Yuanxing would make some mistake in what he said, but because he was afraid that the Uighur envoy would die of excitement.

"Your Highness, Your Highness!"

After being interrupted by Lu Chengqing, Li Yuanxing saw the Uighur envoy clearly. He closed his eyes, stood up, then knelt down, crawled on the ground, and stretched out his hands as much as possible. His pious look shocked Li Yuanxing.

"He, what's wrong with him?" Li Yuanxing asked Lu Chengqing in a low voice.

"This..." Lu Chengqing didn't know how to answer, and finally just said: "He thanks you, Your Highness!"

"Quick, help him and sit down!" Li Yuanxing motioned to Lu Chengqing to help him, but the Uighur envoy was trembling with excitement.

After Lu Chengqing fed him several mouthfuls of bitter tea, he slowly regained some composure.

Li Yuanxing was a little regretful. He had yet to say many things he had thought about. He was just about to throw out the classic sentence about looking up at the bright moon.

At this point, it seems that the temple matters should be put aside.

"My third gift is for you Uighurs. All Uighurs can get it. It will also allow everyone to live a warm winter with countless delicious foods!"

The Uighur envoy had been speechless for a long time. Now his mouth moved a few times, but not a single word came out.

Li Yuanxing didn't care what the Uighur envoy looked like.

In Li Yuanxing's mind, interests are the first priority between countries. The Uighurs were originally a branch of the Turks. They came to the Tang Dynasty to seek peace because they were oppressed. Therefore, only interests are the eternal connection between countries.

"The third gift, wool!"

wool!

Although the Uighur envoy was speechless, he was completely confused in his heart. Besides being confused, he was also excited, because the King of Qin would definitely have a surprise after he confused himself.

"A sheep, its hair!" Li Yuanxing said calmly.

Every time he said this word, the Uighur envoy felt extremely excited, even if he had not yet heard what this sheep, this wool, was about.

"For one penny of wool from a sheep, I will buy it from you in Huihe. This year, I will first buy the wool from your five hundred thousand sheep. Next year, I will buy the wool from your one million sheep. The wool will be used by me."

You can buy it with copper coins, of course, or you can exchange it for the things you need, such as tea or some porcelain!"

Sheep! Wool! Wool!

The wool from one sheep costs just one penny. The wool from a thousand sheep can be exchanged for two baskets full of tea cakes on a horse in the Tang Dynasty. The wool from ten thousand sheep... one hundred

Thousands of sheep..., the wool on their bodies...

Bowing to the ground is already the highest level of kneeling. Is there any higher etiquette? Li Yuanxing just said that he is kneeling now, so what should he do next? The Uighur envoy suddenly stared at Li Yuanxing with firm eyes!
