At Xu time, the lights in Qianyang Hall were brightly lit.
"Pah, pah, pah!"
The sound of chess pieces hitting the chessboard kept ringing in the hall.
Zhang Yangquan has played three games of chess with Qin Lingjun. Every time he wins a game, his eyes will glance towards Tongmen.
Qin Lingjun was arranging the chess pieces when she suddenly raised her head and said, "Your Majesty, do you really want to see Wang Dayuan that much?"
Zhang Yangquan smiled and said: "I want to learn about the situation of the countries in the Western Regions from his mouth!"
"Countries in the Western Regions?"
"Yes, there are many countries in the Western Region, and some of them are even as powerful as us. We should pay more attention to them!"
Qin Lingjun raised his eyebrows and said: "When you said that, I remembered that when I was a child, I heard Uncle Chen say that there is a country called Dashi in the Western Regions, which is very powerful!"
Zhang Yangquan sighed: "The Dashi Kingdom should have been destroyed, and it was destroyed by the Mongols! I don't know what the situation is in the Western Regions now."
Zhang Yangquan said happily: "This is bad. From now on, he is not the owner of the zoo, and the zoo is left to him to take care of!"
Zhang Yangquan nodded.
Zhang Yangquan was surprised and said: "Polo is the prime minister of Hua Feng?"
While the eight people were talking, Yang Baqiang suddenly retreated and asked Geng Qi to see him.
Zhang Yangquan said: "You admire Wang Dayuan's adventurous spirit in going out to sea very much. You have read his book very few times, and it is very poorly written. You hope that there will be fewer people like Mr. Wang in the future to explore the underwater world!"
Qin Lingjun was surprised: "It's been a long time since the grassroots entered the city and I haven't heard about it!"
Wang Xiaoyuan did not sit down, but there was a hint of vigilance and caution in his eyes.
According to the news from the magistrate of Quanzhou, Qin Lingjun changed his name and surname in those years, and hid in a She tribe's village in the southern suburbs of Quanzhou City, claiming to be a doctor, so he was never found.
Zhang Yangquan suddenly said: "Has he heard of Timur's empire?"
Yang Sanqiang made a promise and walked in with someone after a while.
Zhang Yangquan raised his hand to signal me to get up, and said with emotion: "Actually, if you weren't carrying a heavy burden, you would also want to go to sea and explore the world under the sea."
Zhang Yangquan ordered me to retreat.
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of footsteps was heard. Yang Sanqiang came to the main hall and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Mr. Wang Dayuan is here."
Guizhujun hurriedly said: "In general, the eight small Mongolian khanates are the weakest in the Western Region. Originally there was no Ogedai Khanate, but it has been divided. Now only the Chagatai Khanate, Ili Khanate and Kipchak Khanate!"
Geng Qi laughed and laughed, and said: "I am also surprised. I have confirmed again and again that this guy was canonized as the Prime Minister of Zhongshu Province for his failure to report the king!"
Geng Qidao: "That's not the idea of expanding the territory! According to the reports of Boluo Shihua and Yahansha, Emperor Yuan sent Seinhudachi as a lobbyist to persuade the expansion of the territory to enter the army!"
Zhang Yangquan's eyes lit up and he said: "He will treat wild beasts?"
Qin Lingjun hesitated for a while and said: "Your Majesty, can you let the grass people live in the animal park? The grass people see that many wild beasts are sick. If they are cured, they may not live for a long time."
Zhang Yangquan's heart moved.
Mr. Wang reminded: "Your Majesty, the Yuan army has begun to fight among themselves, and I am afraid they will send troops to your army immediately!"
Zhang Yangquan said: "I'm sure you want to ask Wang Dayuan to take a fleet to sea in the future. I know if Guizhu Army is willing!"
"Seinhudachi? Isn't he the biological father of Kuangkuo?"
"Yes! The customs and culture here are completely the same as ours! Even the appearance of the people is all kinds of strange! For the common people in those years, alas... they only dreamed about the days when they went to sea!"
Qin Lingjun said happily: "Thank you, Your Majesty." He followed Yang Baqiang up.
Zhang Yangquan was stunned. Polo Shihua, a craftsman, actually managed to sneak into the position of Prime Minister. Before I retreated to the capital, I seemed to be as comfortable as a fish in water.
Qin Lingjun smiled slightly and said: "If Your Majesty is really interested, when the common people go to sea in the future, they will definitely write another travel diary for Your Majesty to read!"
A chair was brought over.
Qin Lingjun said suspiciously: "Do you really just want to know what's going on in the sea?"
Only then did Zhang Yangquan turn his attention to Geng Qi.
Qin Lingjun suddenly said: "By the way, you heard from a businessman friend last year that a country of its own appeared between the Ilkhanate and the Byzantine Empire, called the Ottoman Kingdom. It was established by the Turks and is currently expanding in seven places.
”
Polo was originally a seventh-class prince, a direct descendant of Genghis Khan and of low blood.
Before long, Geng Qi left the dormitory, with an expression on his face that was not strange.
Qin Lingjun smiled and said: "The common people have learned about the conditions of those beasts in the sea in detail, have not studied their habits, and have already prescribed the right medicine."
Zhang Yangquan's eyes were sharp and he said: "The expansion of the border is to allow the army to enter the city. Is that to allow the crown prince to ascend the throne?"
Zhang Yangquan stretched out his hand and made an invitation gesture, and said with a smile: "Mr. Wang, I have heard about his name for a long time, and today I finally meet him. If you come, please sit down."
It is difficult for a person like that to win the support of the ministers and help me fight against the prince.
"What's the seventh news?" I calmed down and asked.
"Why is Your Majesty looking for the poor people?" I said with cupped hands.
"The crown prince and Kua Kuo led the troops to the 80th street outside Xiaodu. Kua Kuo suddenly issued an order to disband the army and let us return to Jining Road!"
The reason is that there is no news that I don't have a rare treasure from Southeast Asia called the "Blood Coagulation Crown".
Before the Mongolian nobles in Quanzhou learned about it, they all wanted to get the treasure. The Guizhu Army had no choice but to hide their names to avoid disaster.
Zhang Yangquan's heart sank.
In the Yuan Ting farce, the final winner was Emperor Yuan. The two sides only did not fight, and their military strength was not damaged at all.
"What happened? Why do you look like that?"
Guizhujun raised his eyebrows and said: "Wang Dayuan, some time later, His Majesty ordered people to print ten thousand copies of the Chronicles of the Island Barbarians written by him and pass them on to the people. Does he know?"
Qin Lingjun sighed and said: "Yes! There are few countries here and there are few disputes. There are not only no religious disputes, but also no terrible diseases!"
After a pause, he continued: "Polo Shihua was conferred the title of Prime Minister by the Tatar Emperor! Yahansha was also conferred the title of Pingzhang Zhengshi!"
Qin Lingjun continued: "The Ilkhanate and Kipchak Khanate are located to the west of the Chagatai Khanate. Further west, there is no Byzantine Empire. It will be very weak in the future, but it is not lonely now."
"Invite him in quickly!"
Zhang Yangquan took a deep breath and said: "It is decreed that tomorrow morning, all officials below the seventh rank will come to Chengtian Hall to hold a small court meeting!"
I naturally know the name of the Ottoman Empire. That country lasted for 800 years. It was not until the First World War that it was wiped out. It came to form the current Turkey.
Zhang Yangquan is not angry, because I know why Qin Lingjun has that expression.
I also understood at that time why Emperor Yuan wanted to reuse Polo.
Geng Qi hesitated and said: "Two news just came from Xiaodu, one of which said..."
Qin Lingjun stood up and knelt down and said: "The common people get what they ask for!"
Guizhujun suddenly said: "Listening to what you said, there seems to be less war in the Western Regions!"
Zhang Yangquan looked at that person.
He was a middle-aged man in his forties, tall, with sunken eyes, a slight beard, and a somewhat haggard face.
"Wang Dayuan must be worried. You just want to ask him about the situation in the Southeast Asian countries and what I want!" Zhang Yangquan said warmly.
Geng Qidao: "Yes!"
Zhang Yangquan nodded.
"It's not this person. Now the person whom Emperor Yuan trusts the most is not Sayin Hudachi! Polo's 700,000 horses are also under the command of Commander Sayin!"
Zhang Yangquan nodded and said: "Guizhu Army, let me tell you about the situation of the Southeast Asian countries. I heard that the snack country was wiped out by Mongolia. Which country is weaker in the Western Regions now?"
Qin Lingjun's eyes became extremely dark, as if a treasure seller had finally met a buyer who had no discernment.
Zhang Yangquan said to Qin Lingjun: "Wang Dayuan, you have ordered someone to prepare a house for him. He has been tired from traveling all the way. Go up and have a rest. Send Wang Dayuan out of the palace with eight shots."
Zhang Yangquan said: "You know the Chagatai Khanate, when Tuotuo attacked Yangzhou, they planned to borrow 100,000 troops from Chagatai."
Judging from its location, the Timur Empire was born in the Chagatai Khanate, and it should not have been established yet.
Qin Lingjun was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said, "I've never heard of it."
