Chapter 159 The shock of the hearts of the princes and nobles
The Supreme Emperor gave an order, His Majesty obeyed it, and all officials executed it.
As for those aristocratic families, they naturally would not oppose Li Yuan at this juncture, and even sent people to assist them to drive out the Japanese slaves in their respective houses.
Within half a day, hundreds of Japanese envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty were all expelled from Chang'an City.
The ones who took action were Wuhou, most of whom were veterans from the battlefield. They had long been dissatisfied with these Japanese slaves who were smelly and wandered around the city all day long.
Therefore, when we start, we will be the black ones.
These Japanese slaves were searched all over. Except for their clothes, no items belonging to the Tang Dynasty were allowed to be taken away. In addition, in order to prevent these Japanese slaves from causing trouble in the countryside, they were not allowed to keep any weapons or equipment on their bodies.
At the same time, documents were issued to each state.
The Japanese are ambitious and will be expelled from the country if they commit the following offense... The general meaning is that when you come naked, you leave naked, and you are not allowed to take anything with you.
Therefore, when these Japanese slaves were driven out of Chang'an City by Marquis Wu, they had nothing with them except the rations they had begged for.
Everyone looked at each other and saw the despair in each other's eyes.
Especially the ambassador Ono Meizi and the deputy ambassador Gao Xiangxuanli and Nanyuan were full of despair. They had been here since the Sui Dynasty. Unexpectedly, the situation suddenly changed and so many years of hard work would be in vain.
"Nanyuan greets you. This time we were expelled by the saints of the Tang Dynasty. Although the people from the lower village did something wrong and angered the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. But I can't escape the blame. Going back like this will definitely bring shame to the Su Wo family. Especially after so many years,
The many books we have collected are important items that can help the people of our country get rid of ignorance.
Although they were detained by Marquis Wu, those aristocratic families have all benefited from us. As long as the Supreme Emperor forgets what happened today, it is still possible to get those books back and bring them back to Japan..."
"Ambassador, this kind of dangerous mission should be left to me. The mission still needs your leadership. Moreover, the men of the mission are the greatest wealth of our country, and they must all return home!"
The deputy envoy Gao Xiangxuanli and Nanyuan greeted them, and quickly tried to persuade Ono Meizi about the important matter.
These envoys who came to the Tang Dynasty not only included envoys, deputy envoys, judges, recorders, helmsmen, and sailors, but half of the members of the envoys were chief gods, divination masters, onmyojis, physicians, and painters.
Musicians, translators, historians, as well as shipbuilders, shipwrights, shipwrights, carpenters, foundries, blacksmiths, jade workers and other craftsmen.
In particular, these craftsmen and historians were their most important personnel in the Tang Dynasty.
"No, this happened because of me. I have no choice but to say no, so I've decided that I will take a few people to stay, and you will go back to Japan first!"
As she said that, looking at the more than a hundred compatriots in front of her who had nothing else, and then looking at the thick snow on the mountains in the distance, Ono sighed deeply.
In such a cold winter, it would not be an easy task for them to walk from Chang'an to Dengzhou and then back to Japan.
…
However, Li Xuan did not worry about what happened to the Japanese envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty.
Even the officials and generals of the Tang Dynasty did not care about these Japanese slaves and barbarians who were driven out of the Tang Dynasty.
Because what they had been looking forward to for several days finally came to fruition. Another batch of vegetables grew in Lijiazhuang!
The Supreme Emperor has allowed all distinguished officials to come to Lijiazhuang to watch.
This time, this group of officials implemented Li Yuan's words as quickly as possible.
Just past midnight, a large group of people came outside Lijiazhuang.
Although it was not as grand as the Li family's family before, the war horses were neighing, flags were fluttering, and groups of Dukes and Lords' troops were stationed one after another. One hundred or ten people in a group, tens of thousands of people, surrounded the whole place.
Zhuangzi was surrounded by people.
Even the forest near Zhongnan Mountain was not spared.
They had also heard about the incident involving the Japanese barbarians.
"To the Supreme Emperor, Master, Your Highness the Crown Prince, Dukes of Qi, Dukes of Wei, Dukes of Su, Dukes of Shen, Dukes of Cai, Dukes of Wu, Dukes of Yi, Dukes of Fan, and Zuopu She Pei... There are hundreds of princes, princes, and ministers in the court.
, have all arrived outside the village."
A guard hurriedly came to Li Xuan's courtyard and reported to Li Xuan, Li Yuan and others.
Apart from serving outside the Taiji Palace, they have never seen such a complete set of distinguished ministers.
"How did they come so fast today?"
Li Xuan blinked his eyes, and some surprise flashed on his face, "Why don't they go to court? Don't they need to work?"
"It doesn't matter. There is no government affairs in winter. If there is something special, it won't be a big deal if you don't go to court for one day."
Li Yuan sneered, "Just leave one person behind and stay in the government office!"
"Let them visit on their own, but each person can only pick two kilograms of vegetables back!"
"Yes, the Great Emperor!"
The imperial guard responded quickly and quickly resigned.
After the imperial guard informed all the ministers of Li Yuan's words, every minister was filled with joy.
As for Li Yuan not coming out to meet them, they were relieved.
After all, a large number of their ministers were traitors to Li Yuan, and it would definitely be very embarrassing for them to meet their old master.
Otherwise, Li Shimin would not have never come to Lijiazhuang unless necessary since Li Yuan came to Lijiazhuang.
When I saw the glass greenhouses for the first time, especially the more than 200 glass greenhouses one acre in size, neatly arranged together, the impact it brought to these nobles and nobles was beyond the imagination of anyone.
Each one of them stared with their eyes bigger than a copper bell, their eyes were red, and they patrolled from room to room.
Even the few Japanese slaves who passed by and had been hanged alive on the trees only glanced at them and then got into the large shed on the side.
"Hey, these vegetables are growing so well?"
"Exactly, they are more tender than the vegetables grown in summer?"
"I really don't know how that great emperor did it?"
"Hey, Mr. Cheng, isn't the glass house in your backyard exactly the same as the Emperor's glass houses? Why don't the vegetables in your house grow as big as the Emperor's?"
"With so many glass houses, how many pieces of glass are needed?"
"There are at least more than 200 acres of vegetables. Even the Emperor can't eat all these vegetables, right?"
"Nonsense, otherwise the Emperor will allow you and others to pick two kilograms each and take them back!"
"Bah, old man Cheng, you only grow vegetables at home, why do you still pick the emperor's vegetables?"
"There are also the Prince of Hejian County and the Duke of Wei. You don't grow vegetables at home, so why are you still fighting with us?"
"..."
After going around, all the nobles and nobles looked shocked.
Even Cheng Zhijie, who already had a glass greenhouse in his backyard, was full of envy and also had a hint of regret.
If I had known this, I would have built hundreds and eighty of these glass greenhouses in my village even if I put my family's property there.
"Mr. Pei, you are very knowledgeable and have the closest relationship with the Supreme Emperor. Do you know if it would be okay for us to build a glass greenhouse now?"
A minister, thinking of something, asked Pei Ji expectantly.
Pei Ji was stunned. He had not seen the Emperor for a long time. Moreover, he knew about the glass greenhouses built by the Emperor no earlier than these ministers.
