Datang Longya

Chapter 979 Envoy Visit
There is no need to continue to persecute Tokugawa Yoshihiro, this is already a dead man.Seeing the way he attacked brazenly, their Bushido seemed to be rushing in a strange direction, crashing to death without looking back.

Standing up, Leng Feng said coldly: "Although you Wa people are a bit miserable, you must live in Honglu Temple, and you can still have shelter from the wind and rain. You don't need to stay here to pretend to be pitiful. As for the one who was injured by you just now The old farmer, Tokugawa, what can you do if you hacked two of your subordinates to death? Can you repay his pain?"

Tokugawa Jiayu's eyes lit up, and he took out a few pieces of silver pancakes from his arms and offered them with both hands.

Yingyi walked over and took it for the Patriarch.The silver of the Wa Kingdom is just a product of crude extraction, which doesn't look very good.But with these few pieces of silver, the farmer's knife was not in vain.

Handing the money to the farmers, Leng Feng said: "Three of them died, and you have received compensation. I am the master of this matter, so let's go."

A man who had been a soldier of the government came out, took the money, and said loudly, "No! My lord, let the villains distribute the money."

Leng Feng nodded, ignored the trembling Japanese warriors, and continued home with Di Renjie and Wang Xuance.

The villagers ignored those Japanese people, and surrounded Leng Feng and others with a smile to go home together.

If today's affairs were handled by ordinary officials, they would probably get along with each other. No matter how bad the Wa people are, these few still have the name of envoys.But after the protector of the country took over, it was fun.The people in the military are arrogant, and only one of their own is injured, and three of these bastards will be killed, and there will be compensation. Such an unequal transaction is really enjoyable.

It is said that the country is strong and the people are rich. Today's Datang is no longer a sleeping lion, but a giant dragon roaring with thunder, and no one dares to wake it up.At the beginning, the herdsmen of Beihai all fled to the Mediterranean Sea and other places to seek new lands, but Datang focused on the western defense line, and the northern defense line has always been a decoration.

But even so, a herdsman with a household registration in the Tang Dynasty dared to stop the group of people with a dung fork and ask questions.No one dared to do anything, even the passing envoy team could only agree to ask for release.At the beginning, half a citizen of the Western Regions with Tang household registration strayed into the Turkic border and was killed. The frontier general Xue Rengui really led a large group of troops to the border, grabbed the Turkic general by the neck and asked if he wanted to start a war.

Knowing that the generals of the Tang Dynasty wanted to go to war, the Turkic generals cut their faces with a knife, and swore that this was done by a herdsman.It was not until he offered a large amount of compensation that Xue Rengui led the team back to Datang.

No one thinks that this Turkic general is a soft persimmon, and that he can use compensation to quell a sword fight, which is an extremely cost-effective deal.

How many times have the nomads shown the power of iron hooves to the Central Plains, and the persecuted Central Plains can only pay tribute to seek peace.The most recent time, Xieli of the Eastern Turks was on the banks of the Weishui River, extorting the whole of the Tang treasury before leading his troops back to the grassland.

But now, it's the other way around.In order to calm down the irritable generals of Datang, they had to fight their way up and down, trying to get these generals to say good things for them.

Back home, Leng Feng asked Lao Yuan to find out the materials in the warehouse, and also sent Leng Rui to help Di Renjie and Wang Xuance sort it out.

William has helped the family increase some income over the years, because it is not for Tang Min, he cannot become a retainer, he can only be a steward.Just like this, I didn’t give up, and I have been running between Datang and Europe for many years.

Although he learned to speak Tang dialect, William suffered a lot from Chinese characters, so Leng Feng taught him pinyin.Therefore, there are only a few Chinese characters in the materials recorded by William, and most of them are pinyin.Although Di Renjie knew it, but without Leng Rui's help, Wang Xuance could only stare blankly and be unable to do anything.

The daughter came back with a big belly and a girl.

No one in the Leng family dared to gossiping and pick on girls, picked up her granddaughter, and looked at Yao Nianen who was in high spirits. Leng Feng said helplessly, "Even the fifth-rank officials in the imperial court can't impress your heart. It seems that you are really going Are you teaching at the Academy?"

Yao Nianen said with a smile: "Father-in-law, I found that no matter being an official or being a teacher, it is a way to accumulate prestige. The only difference is that the official earns a little more. It’s better to be ordinary. Teaching in the Academy of Arts will slowly accumulate popularity, and you will have more time to do things you are interested in and spend time with your family, why not do it?”

If others listened to Yao Nian'en's words, they would definitely scold him for not seeking to make progress.But to Leng Feng's ears, these words were very shrewd.People live a lifetime, and in the end, if they don't enjoy some good things in life, they are stupid.

After visiting his father-in-law, Yao Nian'en went into the study, obviously wanting to read the history of Europe.Since it was not a secret, there was no need for Leng Feng to stop him.

The servants and maids at home have changed more than once, but those who serve Leng Feng have always been a few people close to him.As long as he is enjoying the shade in the gazebo, Liu Shuwen or Xiaocai will accompany him in embroidery, and Lao Yuan or Lao Li will wait for the Patriarch's orders not far away.

Taking a nap is a good thing. Leng Feng found that taking a nap at noon would give him more energy to do things in the afternoon.

But a good afternoon nap is doomed to failure. After less than half an hour of sleep, Lao Yuan woke up the Patriarch and reported that envoys from Silla Baekje were coming to visit. There were a lot of presents and there were several beauties.

After experiencing Goryeo's obstruction of Silla Baekje, no matter how much courage they lent Wa, they would not dare to obstruct Silla Baekje's pilgrimage.

There are enough gifts prepared by others, it is really inappropriate to see them.

Generally, visits are made in the morning, because they can have lunch by the way, and it will be easier to talk about a lot of things at the dinner table.It is really unusual for someone like Silla Baekje to visit in the afternoon.

After washing up, Leng Feng was wearing loose clothes and waiting to meet the envoys in the small study.

The living room is not suitable. As a country, if Leng Feng used the living room to receive envoys from these two small countries, he might be impeached for being rude.

Not long after, Lao Yuan led two people into the study.

"Xiaguo Silla envoy Gao Xiongxin (Xiaguo Baekje envoy Kim Hyun-min), has met the Duke of Shangguo."

As soon as they entered the door, the two fell to their knees and introduced themselves in very correct Tang dialect.

In the past, when envoys visited, they did not need to kneel down except to pay homage to the emperor.But since the whole world attacked Tang, these envoys changed their habits.Not to mention the duke, even a marquis asked them to kneel down, they would not be ambiguous.

Leng Feng did not look down on these people, and it is not shameful to bow down for the sake of the country.

Of course, except for the muddy people who take their own people.
