The days when I was an obstetrician and gynecologist in Chang'an

Chapter 934: The great Tang Dynasty, the Celestial Empire, is rich in resources and has overwhelming power. This is as it should be.

(Thanks to fugudoku for supporting 200 Qidian coins)
The great Tang Dynasty has all nations coming to pay tribute!
As the Wanshou Festival draws closer, it is no exaggeration to say that Chang'an City is packed with people.

Not to mention the East and West Markets, even the 108 districts in Chang'an City were filled with people. Even the three outer cities that had been expanded a long time ago were filled with foreigners from all over the world.

All the small countries and tribes that came to pay tribute brought with them their own caravans. There were many people from nearby countries and tribes, and there were also quite a few people from far away countries and tribes.

It is well known to the world that the goods produced by the Tang Dynasty, a great Eastern country, are the best in the world.

Here you can find porcelain that is as delicate as a beauty's skin, tea that is refreshing and beneficial to the body, and colorful silk that is fascinating.
There are also the smartest people in the world, the tall and strong Jinwu Guards, and the heart that tolerates everything!
Some of the foreigners who arrived early only stayed in Chang'an for a few days before they hurriedly sent messages back home, asking people to raise the standards of the tribute ceremony, hoping to send more of their people to Chang'an to learn the etiquette and culture of the Tang Dynasty.

From the Temple Gate to the Eastern Turks to the Opium Case, the civil servants in the court were angered.

In the past, the Tang Dynasty treated small countries and tribes that came to pay tribute with tribute in a generous way, which meant that if they gave us some local specialties as tribute, we would give back a lot of good things.

Therefore, the economic loss is quite significant.

According to the civil servants, "The great Tang Dynasty is the Celestial Empire, with abundant resources and overwhelming power. This is as it should be."

Therefore, the value of the return gifts from the Honglu Temple to the small countries and tribes that came to pay tribute was always greater than the value of the tribute items they offered. In the eyes of the civil officials, this was a gift from the Tang Dynasty to these vassal states.

Of course, this is indeed a blessing. Silla, Baekje and Japan, which were close to the Tang Dynasty, all used regular script as their traditional writing.

To this day, there are still many students from these three kingdoms in the Imperial College.

However, due to the resistance of the restless Eastern Turks and Champa in the south to the Tang Dynasty in the past two years, the Tang Dynasty had to send troops to fight in the east and west, and in the south and north. In the court, from civil officials to military officials, everyone felt that they could no longer give a good face to these vassal states.

If a civil servant wants to trip someone up, he must be very smart.

Therefore, when all the nations came to pay tribute this time, the Ministry of Revenue had a thorough discussion with the Ministry of Rites and the Honglu Temple, and finally formulated hundreds of regulations for the vassal states that came to pay tribute this time.

The first one is that in addition to ranking according to the size of the vassal states' national strength, if those equally powerful small states can give more and more valuable items, the Honglu Temple can give you a front seat for dinner.

If you give more, you can also be given a place to study in Chang'an.

Of course, you have to pay to study. You have to pay for tuition, rice, and everything. If you don't have money, there's no point in talking.

At this time, do you dare to say that you don't want to pay tribute? Don't want to pay money?

Then we have to talk about what Taizong said.

Taizong once said: "For several years, Gaochang has neglected to pay tribute and has not performed the rituals of a vassal. The emperor has appointed officials in the country and allowed all of our officials to call themselves vassals. How can this be allowed?

At the beginning of this year, all nations have come to pay tribute, but Wen Tai has not come. We have built a city and a deep moat, and are ready to attack!"

Afterwards, Gaochang Kingdom disappeared and the Tang Dynasty gained Gaochang County, which was under the jurisdiction of Anxi Protectorate.

Now, the powerful weapon like black gunpowder developed by Du Qinghui and his men has played a decisive role in the battle against the Eastern Turks. How dare the small countries in the Western Regions not pay tribute?
Who wants to be the next Gaochang?
Even a powerful country like the Eastern Turks had to bow their heads. How dare you little Karamians disobey?
Since the birthday celebration coincides with the coming of all nations to pay tribute to the emperor, shouldn't the vassal states be more attentive in their birthday congratulations to the supreme ruler of the Tang Dynasty?
Therefore, when Luzhuer went to and from school recently, she saw more and more foreigners on the streets.

Right now, the autumn heat is still strong at noon. If you are in a sparsely populated area outside the city, it would be much colder.

Just like the last time when Luzhuer followed Li Sanniang to Ping'an Women's Medical College outside the city, she wore a cloak.

Luzhuer and Aqilaya sat together by the window in the lobby of the dessert shop, each holding a bowl of brown sugar glutinous rice balls dessert, drinking it face to face, scooping the dessert with a spoon while talking and gesticulating.

Yes, Aqilaya from the Zhenlabohe tribe is the foreign girl who gave Luzhuer the love rope at the city gate. She is now also studying in the women's college where Luzhuer is studying.

However, Aqilaya was still a kid in the newly opened class. After all, she couldn't even speak Chang'an Mandarin fluently.

“Sweet, delicious, delicious.”

Aqilaya expressed her love for the brown sugar glutinous rice balls to Luzhuer in such a simple way. Luzhuer had recently gotten used to Aqilaya's way of speaking, spouting out words at a time.

"Xiaoya, it would be great if you could use the energy you put into drinking sugar water to learn to speak Mandarin.

It's been so long, and you still can't even utter a complete official sentence. Won't your grandma be angry that you don't study hard in the academy?"

Aqilaya understood most of what Luzhuer said. She replied to Luzhuer: "Grandma is busy, Jenna is busy too. Tribute, gifts, not enough, buy, busy."

Luzhuer was so smart that she knew what Aqilaya wanted to say as soon as she heard her words: "I was wondering, there are so many older foreigners on the streets these days. In the past, I only saw them in the West Market and at the city gate.

Oh, your family is busy, you have to pay attention to it, it is not easy for our little girl to study. "

While the two little girls were talking in the dessert shop, in a shop called Supermarket opened by Xing Yu in Xishi, Zhenla Pohe tribe's Jenna and the headwoman, Aqilaya's grandmother, were taking people to visit the three-story supermarket.

The abundance of items inside was dizzying, and it really broadened their horizons.

After staying here for about an hour, the people who couldn't help but buy a lot of things hired donkey carts on the roadside to help transport the things back to their residence outside the Honglu Temple.

After arranging for people to follow the donkey cart back to deliver the things, Jenna, the headwoman and several servants came to a tea stall.

“What should I do?

The things in the Tang Dynasty are so good, they have everything. The precious things we brought are really too few. How can we compare with the Morin tribe?"

Jenna's brows were furrowed as she watched her chief speak in such a low voice using the words of the Po-He tribe.

The headwoman lowered her head to drink tea. After she finished her cup of tea, she finally raised her head and said, "Then present all the gold we brought this time!"
