Chapter eight hundred and sixty ninth arrogance

"Please stay less!"

Yuan Pingxiu calmly followed Huang Tianyou, the Minister of Rites, to enter the palace. Seeing such a spacious and bright palace, it was magnificent and magnificent, which was very similar to Heian Kyo's style, I felt more and more excited.

This is the first time in more than a hundred years that a Japanese envoy has set foot in the Tang Dynasty's palace. Seeing the glory of the Tang Dynasty, his heart is quite rippling.

His father, Dana Yanyuan, was the tenth prince of Emperor Daigo. He was demoted to a minister and given the surname Yuan. As his second son, Yuanhei Hide begged for every effort to get the opportunity to go to the Tang Kingdom.

This is not only a political activity, but also a trade. Japanese goods sold to the Tang Kingdom and doubled their profits. Moreover, he could also buy the Tang poems he needed to gain the status of the poetry club chanting in Heian Kyo.

When he thought of being able to organize poetry meetings and gain fame when he returned to Heianjing, he couldn't suppress his joy. As for the task of traveling to Changsha, it was second.

"Don't be nervous!" Huang Tianyou smiled slightly, looked back at the Japanese envoy, and said, "You are an external minister, just follow the etiquette, don't be too restrictive, you will answer any questions."

"Yes!" Yuan Pingxiu responded in a low voice, but became much more restrained.

Looking at this Japanese envoy who was full of clothes and robe, Huang Tianyou was a little interested. The former Tang Dynasty had been in danger for more than 50 years and the Anshi Rebellion lasted for two hundred years. The clothing and clothing in the Central Plains had long changed a lot, more close to the body, and the sleeves were narrower. This kind of Tang suit in Japan seemed very rare.

"The Central Plains is inappropriate and seeking the four barbarians is indeed a bit reasonable."

I sighed in my heart, after waiting for a while, an eunuch led the way, and the Emperor of Yan was allowed.

The two of them marched in a stern manner and entered the Ganlu Hall. They saw a young man in yellow robe and a respectful and honest man standing beside him. They hurriedly knelt down: "I'm going to kowtow to Your Majesty."

"The Japanese envoy followed the six young masters to judge Yuan Heixiu, and see His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty—"

Genhei Hide saluted respectfully, and every move was so natural and graceful. She was indeed a nobleman of the Heian era, and she really couldn't find any etiquette.

However, the name is indeed long.

"What's the point of being here?"

The emperor whispered softly, listening to the authentic Luoyang sound of the Japanese, without any noise, it was even more standard than most of the court officials in the court, and he couldn't help but feel a little more kind.

"Report to your Majesty, the foreign minister came to sue your country's Heishui Protectorate to go westward, and on the Hoiyi Island of our country, he unauthorized gold mines and plundered hundreds of civilians in our country. He also asked His Majesty to make the decision for our country."

Yuan Pingxiu lowered her head and said with a grievance.

"Hayi Island, Hei Shui Protectorate? Gold Mine?"

After these words, Li Jia focused on gold mines and cared very much. He turned his head and asked Li Anguo: "Did you know that Li Zhiyuan mined gold mines privately?"

"Your Majesty, if you are in the Hei Shui Protectorate, I will definitely know, but I don't know where the Hei Yi Island is."

Li Anguo's eyes lit up. It was a gold mine again. Damn, his income increased significantly.

"Oh!" Li Jia narrowed her eyes, looked at the Japanese envoy, and said, "If the Hoiyi Island is not as expected, it is not owned by your country!"

"As far as I know, your country was divided into five capitals and seven roads in the Tang Dynasty, and there was no Soi Road among them. Moreover, the Soi people have always been in a confrontation with your country, so how could they belong to your country?"

"This..." Yuan Pingxiu didn't expect that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was so clear about his country. He originally planned to fool him. Anyway, there were thousands of miles apart, so how could the emperor of Changsha Prefecture know about this?

Huang Tianyou, who was standing beside him, was also shocked. When did the emperor know so much?

Li Anguo thought to himself, could it be that the Shooting Sound Department had already found Japan, and there must be many spies in Shaofu Temple.

"The Emirates have surrendered to our country, and naturally the Emirate Island belongs to our country." Yuan Pingxiu had no choice but to make a fool of himself.

"Hmph!" Li Jia didn't know his sophistry and sneered: "The words of the envoys are full of mistakes and missed them. There are hundreds of Essay tribes. How can there be a reason for surrender? If you surrender, how can the Essay people attack you in the Kanto area of ​​your country?"

"Didn't you see the gold mine, and you're greedy and want to seize it?"

"Foreign ministers dare not!" Yuan Pingxiu hurriedly fell down and shivered. Not to mention Tang State, he said that the tens of thousands of troops in Jinshan City and the huge merchant ship navy were not something that Japan could compete at present.

"Go back and tell you the king that the name of the Hokkien land has been changed. From today on, it will be called Beihai. Your country will not worry about it."

Li Jia waved his hand and threatened verbally: "Why did I still hear that the king of your country, who is arbitrarily called the Emperor of Heaven, is so arrogant and offended Emperor Gaozong. I am afraid that it is a ill-gotten plot, and maybe underestimate my Tang Dynasty?"

The word "Emperor" comes from the title of Emperor Gaozong of Tang, Li Zhi. Just like Emperor Huizong of Song later claimed to be Emperor Taoist, they all belonged to the emperor's self-praise. Wu Zetian was the queen of heaven at that time, and the queen of heaven was the queen of heaven at that time.

The earliest written record of the name of the emperor in Japan at that time was the "Aoki Junihara Order" issued in 689 by Emperor Tenmu, which must have been plagiarized.

If this were in vassal states such as Goryeo, the strong soldiers of the Tang Dynasty would definitely let him taste what it was like to destroy the country. However, Japan was across the sea and spread not widely, so it would be fine.

Now Li Jia knows that this offensive behavior is to blaspheme the monarchy.

As the saying goes, the king has the power and the heavenly entrusted, there can only be one emperor and one emperor in the world, and it must not be shaken.

"Is this really the case?" Huang Tianyou was so angry that he shivered and gritted his teeth and said, "There is no day, no one has no two masters. The small country of Cuoer actually called him the Emperor?"

The emperor's meaning is that he is now equivalent to the emperor. There is only one emperor in the world. How can he have a second child on this day?

In the eyes of scholars who are obsessed with etiquette and Confucianism, this is a rebellious statement. Even if Yelang is arrogant, he must be corrected, otherwise he will be sorry to Confucius.

"Foreign ministers, foremost ministers..." Yuan Pingxiu was shocked and crawled on the ground, not daring to make any more quibbling. Many people know about such facts. If they are exposed, it will be a matter of one knife.

"The Japanese Yelang was arrogant and did not follow the king's way and called himself emperor in vain. He was already far from the way of vassals. He also asked His Majesty to issue an order to scold him and order him to change it."

Huang Tianyou couldn't say that he used troops, but he just used troops verbally. After all, in his eyes, Japan was no different from Yelang back then. If he sent troops, it would be a loss-making deal and was not worth it.

"Shangshu, Japan is not a vassal yet, and it has never paid tribute." Li Anguo reminded in a low voice.

Huang Tianyou's face turned red and he didn't know how to say anything.

"I don't have trouble for you. Go back and tell your king that the title of emperor must be changed, otherwise the heavenly soldiers will suffer."
