At the ruined entrance to Kyoto, a mighty Japanese royal family came out of the city to greet the caravan from the Tang Dynasty.
Although I have been in Japan for three months, I have never received such grand treatment at the beginning of my visit.
There were no soldiers or weapons in the ranks of the Tang Dynasty. The only things they had were the goods from the Tang Dynasty.
Everything seems to be back to when it first entered Japan. The only thing that has changed is the attitude of the Japanese royal family towards the Tang Dynasty mission.
But everyone knew that such a huge change was not due to the Japanese people suddenly becoming more friendly to the Tang Dynasty, but to the artillery fire that had quietly withdrawn and the naval fleet docked near the coast.
The Japanese royal family stood neatly at the city gate, and the current Japanese emperor personally came to greet them, full of smiles.
The scene was very peaceful, but these people always looked around inadvertently.
The secret hidden in the hearts of Japanese people has not been solved. What is the thing called the "Shenwu Cannon"?
They wanted to see what kind of weapon could level the Holy Mountain in just one day.
Only those who have experienced it personally will feel fear from the bottom of their hearts. This kind of power that transcends human power makes people unable to resist. All Japan can do is cooperate.
The on-site reception ceremony was just a formality. At this moment, the caravan re-entered Kyoto, which heralded the beginning of everything.
Bai Song rode in front, and the Japanese ministers passing by on both sides raised their heads proudly. Even when they met with the Japanese emperor, they had no intention of dismounting.
In the past, these Japanese people would have had their blood pressure soared and exploded on the spot.
At this moment, everyone was as calm as a puddle of water.
Everything seems to be taken for granted.
The current emperor was the same, silently following Bai Song without any words.
Now, the entire Japanese royal family is under the control of Bai Song. His third and second brothers are all under the protection of the other party. If Bai Song is willing, he can easily replace anyone to inherit the throne.
Therefore, the eldest prince now needs Bai Song's support the most.
"Your Majesty the Envoy, the remnants of the Donghuang Pavilion and the Ninja Sect are currently being cleared out in Kyoto City. Although the number of opponents is not large, there are many difficult masters. Before the threat is completely eliminated, Your Excellency, you still have to put your own safety first.
In my opinion, it is better to let the envoy live in the palace."
While they were talking, the team had already entered the city.
Bai Song was not very interested in this kind reminder.
Kyoto seems peaceful, but if the other party really wants to assassinate him, even hiding him in the palace has no practical significance.
"Is there any reason for the envoys of other countries to live in the imperial palace? I have become accustomed to the previous villa, so it is better to live in the previous villa."
"Since the envoy has made such a request, we must follow your arrangements."
Bai Song didn't say anything more, and glanced across the city. In his memory, many streets were affected by bombings. There were flying sand and gravel everywhere, and occasionally some injured people could be seen.
"From now on, our caravan will open a free clinic at the gate of Bieyuan. All those injured in yesterday's battle can receive free treatment. Of course, the medicine and basic expenses required for treatment need to be borne by the Japanese royal family."
Bai Song suddenly spoke, and the emperor nodded repeatedly: "What preparations are needed after this?"
"The most important thing now is to appease the people and publicize the hypocrisy of Donghuang Pavilion. Kyoto is just the beginning. There are many places outside Kyoto where Donghuang Pavilion can hide and develop."
After a simple reception ceremony, the entire Japanese royal family took action and began a city-wide manhunt at Bai Song's request.
Kyoto is a bit chaotic, with occasional conflicts occurring in various inconspicuous corners, and bloodshed happening from time to time.
The people of Kyoto did not feel at peace again, and everyone hid in their homes, feeling uneasy.
Compared with the chaos outside, the small garden seems to have returned to its former peace.
Everyone is back, there are no unnecessary casualties.
Xiaokui, Shixiang, and other people controlled by Huimengdan all took the antidote prepared by Bai Song, and after half a day of cultivation, they slowly woke up from the initial coma.
This was a staged victory. At dusk, a celebration banquet was held in the garden.
Bai Song raised his wine glass and said loudly during the banquet: "The first thing we want to thank is General Zhu Hezhu. Without General Zhu's timely arrival, the situation we are facing now would not be the same."
The officials of the mission raised their glasses and agreed: "Yes, thanks to General Zhu this time."
General Zhu is old and arrogant towards others, but in front of a young man like Bai Song, he is not arrogant at all. On the contrary, he appears extremely polite.
In the Tang Dynasty, there were too many legends about the Bai Song Dynasty. This young man was no longer a young boy who traveled to Chang'an, but a capable man with countless legendary experiences.
The Shenwu cannon he developed alone became the key to laying the foundation of the Tang Dynasty.
Since the Tang army was equipped with Shenwu cannons, the stability of the Tang border was unparalleled in all previous dynasties.
Zhu He also knew very well that what happened today had nothing to do with him. All he relied on was the divine cannon.
Hearing Bai Song's praise, Zhu You blushed a little, stood up and said with a smile: "Mr. Bai, you are exaggerating. We are here today not because of the Shenwu Cannon. And this Shenwu Cannon was invented by Sir. The final general
It's just a formality."
"The Shenwu Cannon also has its limitations. It plays a decisive role in large-scale battles, but when it comes to small-scale conflicts, it is difficult to use the Shenwu Cannon. Now that the enemies hiding in your secrets have not been completely eliminated, we can't
Relax your vigilance. I will rely on the protection of the old general from now on."
"Lord Bai, as long as all the people in our Zhuhe headquarters are alive, we will not let anyone hurt you or anyone else in the mission."
"Before, the enemy was in the light and we were in the dark, so we could quickly reverse the situation with the Shenwu Cannon. Now the situation is reversed. We cannot place all our hopes on the Japanese royal family. If the remnants of the Donghuang Pavilion remain hidden,
We have never been able to feel at ease." Bai Song held up his wine glass and said seriously while walking among the crowd.
When the topic got down to business, the expressions of everyone at the table became serious.
Bai Song already had a plan and continued: "I don't like to sit still and wait for death. Our mission in Japan has just begun. The matter has not been resolved yet. What should we do with the lost goods?
At this time, Lin Xingwen was really panicked and shouted: "You, what are you going to do? We can't be so worried all the time, so I plan to leave alone on the general's ship and return to Datang first."
