Marcus suddenly became so enthusiastic that Wang Jing was stunned - there were various reasons for this. First of all, it was really flattering that the Romans were so enthusiastic towards a Chinese Han citizen.
Moreover, how could the Romans be so enthusiastic about themselves? There might be some conspiracy behind this.
It would be terrible if I unintentionally harmed the Roman envoy!
Of course, the most important thing is that this guy seems not to know about the giant island in the South China Sea, so he is so excited.
However, after understanding this, Wang Jing was very shocked. How could this be possible? This Roman had never heard of this? Although,
Although he didn't know why, Wang Jing vaguely felt that he had done something big, something big enough to affect the fate of the world. Although it was vague and chaotic, this feeling was extremely powerful.
, and even gave me an unreasonable urge to kill the Roman in front of me immediately.
But impulse is just impulse after all. As a veteran of the world, Wang Jing immediately threw this impulse into an unknown place and stopped thinking about it.
Impulsiveness that cannot bring benefits is a common idiot problem among young people. Compared with this, it is more serious to find a way out for the five surnames and five kings. Of course, in this matter, the Roman envoy must be served first
Okay, otherwise it's all in vain.
After thinking for a while, Wang Jing said, "Your Majesty, this matter is not new. It has been circulating along the coast of China for a long time."
To be exact, it has been several years, so when talking about this, Wang Jing was also very surprised.
The Romans were so powerful that they didn't even know this.
When he said this, although he himself was very surprised, when Marcus heard it, his eyes widened in an instant, and he stared at him with his brows suddenly raised, and there was a touch of anger in his eyes, "What did you say?
"
"Such important information, you have been cooperating with Rome for so long, but you haven't even reported it to us!"
Although Marcus was just surprised, he still made love on the spot.
As for why he pretends to show anger, it is of course because Marcus knows these people in front of him very well. This kind of people basically don't treat people who are lower than them as human beings.
, and if it is someone who is stronger than them and can fight, they will kneel down immediately when they face it.
Marcus had seen many such people in Rome. He grew up among this group of people, and it was because of this that he became taciturn.
As for my attitude towards this kind of people, there is no need to say more. If I didn't despise this kind of people, how could I be loyal to the little Hannibal who stole his parents' wealth?
Although I still have some grudges, since Hannibal came to power, I have not dealt with old nobles like this much anymore, and I can make friends I really admire in the Roman legions. But after all, I am still innate.
There is a contradiction.
However, these things do not affect Marcus's sincere disdain for the group of people in front of him. These guys just need to be used until they lose all value and then killed. This is their biggest obligation in life.
However, to control this kind of people requires certain skills. The most important thing is to calm them down and at the same time give them a sense that they have something in common with them, that they have something in common that cannot be seen with the naked eye. In this way, they
Only then will you be obedient.
After Marcus's face turned dark, sure enough, immediately afterwards, Wang Jing's face turned pale for an instant.
Damn it, did you really offend the Romans? This, this, this, this is not good!
Wang Jing's face turned pale in an instant. He stood up and left his seat on the spot. He quickly knelt down in front of the Roman envoy, bowed his hands and apologized repeatedly, "Your Majesty, please forgive me! Your Majesty, please forgive me!"
"this."
"Young man really doesn't know about this, because it has been spread all over the world, and there has been an uproar in all places, but now no one has seen the giant island in the south, so no one mentions it. Your Majesty.
The envoy worked hard here in China and spread the blessings of Rome here. The villain thought that the envoy knew about it a long time ago, so he did it."
"snort!"
Marcus snorted coldly, then looked at this guy with burning eyes, "Now that I know it, you'd better not hide anything and tell me quickly."
As he said that, Marcus suddenly saw Wang Jing's eyes becoming intense, and a strange smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Of course, you can choose to tell everything clearly, or not tell everything clearly and continue to hide it, but the consequences will be
What, then don’t blame me for not telling you, only His Majesty Hannibal, the Emperor of Rome, can decide this."
"Do you understand?"
"I understand!"
Being scolded angrily by the young Roman envoy, not only Wang Jing was frightened out of his wits, but everyone else present, except Marcus himself, was terrified, fearing that the Roman envoy would go back and report a secret to the Roman king.
The crime of reporting military intelligence!
Fortunately, the messenger still gave him a chance. Infinite gratitude surged in Wang Jing's heart. He poured beans on the spot and told all the legends about the sea area south of Southeast Bay and about the legendary giant island.
.
Of course, this also includes the news of the existence of this giant island, which first came from the palace and the rumor that Li Shengxian gave the emperor of the Tang Empire a map!
After learning this, Marcus immediately touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
His eyes narrowed, and his thoughts suddenly drifted to a distant place.
No one has ever seen this giant island, but so many people believe in its existence. If you think about it carefully, this fact is quite strange.
It turned out that it was the minister named Li Sheng who dedicated it to the Emperor of the Tang Empire?
this name.
Marcus's eyes were shining brightly, as if there were flames burning.
This name is not that of an ordinary minister. In Rome's investigation of China so far, its importance is even greater than that of those ministers who openly serve the emperor every day, such as Wei Zheng, Changsun Wuji and others.
If Wei Zheng, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui were all great sages, extremely rare ones, it would be extremely difficult for the Tang Empire to get help from so many powerful people.
Then, this Li Sheng is a complete exception. Even based on the very limited investigation results in Rome, although this guy is young and almost never appears in the capital of the Tang Empire, it is said that he has no direct contact with the Tang Dynasty.
The emperor of the empire had dealt with him as if he were an insignificant pawn.
