Red Mansion Soldiers

Chapter 248 Aobo's "Treaty of Chang'an"

The setting sun dyed half of the sky red, and even the few clouds in the sky were dyed red.

Following the shouts of Wu Hou who patrolled the city and the government watchmen, vendors and street shop owners also closed their stalls and prepared to go home.

"Ah wu." A mouth with several missing teeth bit hard on a piece of baked fragrant naan. However, the missing teeth had a great impact, and it took a lot of effort to finally bite it. Bite off a small piece of naan.

"Oh no!" The burnt aroma of the naan bread and the slight sweetness brought by the raisins made Jia Cong squint his eyes and couldn't stop.

Naturally, the two brothers Jia Hui and Jia Cong were walking on the street.

Previously, the Zumureti family wanted to keep Jia Hui for dinner. Jia Hui originally wanted to leave, but the Zumureti couple were really enthusiastic, and several children rushed over from the backyard and looked at them eagerly. , it doesn’t matter whether I leave or stay.

Fortunately, Brother Cong, who was returning home from school, happened to pass by here. He was hungry and wanted to buy a piece of sweet naan to satisfy his craving. Jia Hui took advantage of the situation and left Zumureti's house with Brother Cong.

"Indeed, Sa Buhe's skill in baking naan is ranked among the best in the entire Western Region." Jia Hui, like Jia Cong, was eating a piece of naan while walking.

Moreover, Sabuhe is not a fool. He only relies on such traditional methods. Since he came to Chang'an, he has come up with many new tricks.

For example, the two brothers hold palm-sized sweet naan with many kinds of nuts, chopped raisins and sugar.

But in Jia Hui’s eyes, this thing is no longer a staple food, but a snack!

After eating a small piece of naan, he took the water bottle handed over by Hu Jiu and drank two sips to rinse his mouth. Only then did Jia Hui have time to look at Jia Cong who was eating happily: "Brother Cong, you often go to Zumureti's house." Eat at the store?”

"Huh? Huh!" Jia Cong still had something in his mouth and couldn't speak, so he nodded heavily.

No words are spoken when eating, and no words are spoken when sleeping. Not speaking when there is something in your mouth is the most basic courtesy. In these small details, the Jia family's education has never fallen behind. It has been deeply engraved in the bones of every Jia family member, and Jia Cong is no exception.

Jia Hui's mood didn't change at all, she just waited quietly for Jia Cong to swallow the food in his mouth before speaking.

After taking the water handed to him by the guard and drinking half of the bamboo tube, Jia Cong looked up at his eldest brother: "Brother, I have known this store since the first day I went to the Imperial College. !”

Hearing this, Jia Hui slapped his forehead and remembered that Chang'an Imperial College was nearby!

Sabuhe is really good at picking places.

"Brother, Dawuti's baked naan is delicious. When we pass by here after school, we often buy one and eat it while walking!" Jia Cong said happily.

Dawuti was the eldest son of Zumureti, who was about the same age as Jia Cong, except that Jia Cong went to the Imperial Academy while Dawuti went to a private school.

"Brother, I didn't expect you to know their family. Did you know them in the Western Regions?!" With something in his stomach, Jia Cong's nourished brain became smarter again.

"Yes, Turpan City in the Western Regions is a rare and good place, especially the grapes there. They are so sweet that my throat hurts!" Jia Hui sighed as he recalled the past, and was surprised to realize that the capture of Turpan was already four or five years ago.

"Turpan is a big city with 60,000 soldiers. I remember that the plan was to defeat it within a month. But the city lord of Turpan was more aware of current affairs at that time. Our army had just arrived at the city and they didn't even start their formations. Then I just surrendered." Jia Hui curled his lips.

"Although the surrender of the city lord made me wait for less military exploits, it is also a good thing. We can rest for a few more days. Then I met Zumureti at a tavern in the city called 'Bayi Papa' , stayed there for about a month, and then continued fighting." After briefly explaining the process, Jia Hui stopped talking.

It’s no good for a seven or eight-year-old kid to know too much!

"Then what?" Jia Cong looked at himself with burning eyes, his eyes seemed to be shining.

"What's next? There's no more." Jia Hui stretched out her hand to push away Jia Cong who had rubbed against her leg.

Of course Jia Cong refused, and his curiosity was aroused. If he didn't know the past between his eldest brother and that Zumureti, he would not be able to sleep for several days!

"Get off, get off!" The more Jia Hui pulled, the tighter Jia Cong hugged him!

"Get away! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!" Jia Hui was furious. He raised his legs and started throwing them around, making Jia Cong dizzy. Jia Hui felt that this was not enough. After shaking him for a while, he put his feet on the wall and lifted Jia Cong up. He opened his palm as big as a leaf fan and slapped Jia Cong on the buttocks!

"Ahhhh!" Jia Cong kept screaming, but he also became fierce and hugged Jia Hui's leg tightly and wouldn't let go.

Can the eldest brother beat himself to death?

"General, Master Cong, please stop fighting!" Seeing that it was almost dark, the two brothers actually started making trouble in the street. Hu Jiu, the leader of the soldiers, was extremely anxious!

Although fighting is really common for these two brothers, this is not at home, but on the street!

Didn’t you see that the censor patrolling the city walked back and forth three times at the intersection?

Hu Jiu's words still had some effect, or he felt that the beating was almost done, so Jia Hui stopped beating and stopped.

"Let go! Jia Cong, I will give you one last chance. Let go. Everything will be easy! If you still don't let go!" Jia Hui looked at Jia Cong fiercely, "You have been doing well recently, too. It’s time to start practicing martial arts!”

Don't blame me for training you with deadly hands!

Of course someone as smart as Jia Cong could understand what his eldest brother meant, and he sneered in his heart. Is that all?

"No! Brother, don't think that I am easy to fool because I am young. Anyway, according to what you said, I will start practicing martial arts sooner or later. Even if I don't provoke you, you can still let me practice as I please?

The strength of the training will definitely not make it any easier! "

"You bastard!" Jia Hui was so angry that he laughed. He didn't know who he was following with such a stubborn temper!

But Jia Hui also knew in his heart that it would be impossible without a heavy blow.

"Okay, Brother Cong, how about I try another way?" Jia Hui sneered and looked at the stubborn Jia Cong, "Originally I wanted to give you a good colt, but since you treat my elder brother like this, then Big brother just"

Poof!

Before he finished speaking, there was a sound of wind, and Jia Hui immediately felt that his legs were much lighter.

"Oh, aren't you going to let go?"

"Hey, brother, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand?" Jia Cong had a silly smile on his cute little face and started to act stupid, as if nothing happened before.

"Oh, no more hugs?" Jia Hui sneered, this thing looks like a dog!

"Look at what you said, brother, am I, Jia Cong, such a disrespectful person? It's all because of the piece of roasted naan I just ate that made me, brother, obsessed and did some things that I couldn't control."

"Sabuhe will definitely fight you after hearing what you said!" Jia Hui was amused by Jia Cong, "Why do you do something you can't help yourself? That's called 'involuntarily'!"

"As expected of my Jia Cong's good brother, his knowledge is profound!" Jia Cong smiled and extended his thumb towards Jia Hui.

"Get out!" He gently raised his foot and touched Jia Cong's butt. Jia Cong jumped in pain. Jia Hui flicked his sleeves and bypassed Jia Cong who was rubbing his butt, and walked towards home. go

"Hey, big brother, do you really want to give me a horse?" Jia Cong quickly chased after him.

"roll!"

. . . . . . Jia Taiwei's violent beating of his younger brother in the street did not create any disturbance. After all, there was a curfew at that time, and there was no one on the street. The only patrol censor who had the ability to hand over the impeachment papers to the court was temporarily blind, and he was unable to do so. Saw the actions of the two brothers

The days passed like this day by day.

After a full month of fierce fighting, the negotiations between Persia and the Ottomans were coming to an end.

Taiwei Mansion.

As the venue for the tripartite talks, the place was surrounded by guards brought by the Suzaku Cavalry, Mustafa, and the Persian envoy to prevent any blind thieves from daring to escape. Come in for assassination.

The minor officials in the Dudu Mansion also had a rare holiday. Even if the people serving tea and water on this occasion were new scholars who came to Honglu Temple to observe the government, the minor officials were even less qualified to participate.

In fact, this kind of meeting should be held in the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion, the palace or the cabinet. However, the emperor and the emperor went to inspect the border towns together, so the palace could not be opened. The cabinet in Weiyang Palace was too narrow, so it was naturally blocked. disuse.

As for why I stayed at the Taiwei Mansion instead of the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion?

There is no way, among the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion in Chang'an City, only Yun Yu's Right Army Governor's Mansion has been repaired, and Jia Hui has never even been to this serious Zuo Army Governor's Mansion, but took the Left Army Governor's Mansion with him The team directly settled in the Taiwei Mansion in Qianliang.

When Yuan Kai designed Chang'an City, he only designed it as a companion capital. Almost all government offices were built in Weiyang Palace.

When the construction started, Yuan Jian and Yuan Bisha, the father and son, did not make any changes to their old master's design, so the size of the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion was actually no different from that of the Cabinet and Six Ministries.

Therefore, this mansion, which was actually the Zuojun Governor's Mansion but was read as the Taiwei Mansion, became the only choice.

Jia Hui's festival hall also changed drastically. The hall table and some miscellaneous things were stuffed into another side room. Instead, there were three long tables, placed in a three-missing position.

Those located due north, with the Jiangya Mountains and Sea Map at their backs, are the officials of Daqi.

Li Shi, the chief assistant representing the imperial court, sat in the middle, Jia Hui and Yun Yu, the military commanders, were on the left. Tianguan of the Ministry of Personnel and Nangong Shang of the Ministry of War, who represented the civil servants, sat on the right of Li Shi.

In fact, according to the rules, civil servants should be on the left and military on the right, but this place belongs to Jia Hui after all, so the official of the Ministry of Personnel suffered a small loss and gave Jia Hui some face.

Naturally, the positions of Ottoman and Persia are on the east and west sides, facing each other.

"So, do you have any objections to the plan proposed by our country?" Li Xian's slow but powerful voice sounded in the festival hall.

There was silence in the festival hall.

The Persian's face was full of humiliation, and there were even tears in his eyes. They were really unhappy as they were about to lose their land and pay compensation.

But if Daqi had not given this opportunity, they would have been destroyed as a nation, let alone ceded territory and paid compensation. They could not help but feel aggrieved. Ever since they entered the door, they had been staring at the Ottomans sitting opposite with bitter hatred. .

On the other hand, the Ottomans opposite him were sitting there calmly and even exuding an aura of joy.

Although they spit out part of the occupied land, they still got about one-third of the Persian territory. Oh no, as long as today's treaty is signed, these lands will become Ottoman territory in a reasonable and legal manner.

Moreover, the most important point - the hidden task of preventing Persia from forming an alliance with Qi Dynasty has also been completed very well. As long as he can return to the Ottomans alive in the future, it is a certainty that he will be promoted to an official position.

"My Majesty, the great and supreme Ottoman Caliph Mamet, the Babylonian Pasha Mustafa Mehmet Gunesh, has no meaning to this treaty." Musta, as the Ottoman speaker Fa faced Li Yan and stated very solemnly.

"Good!" Li Yan stroked his beard and nodded with satisfaction, then turned his head and looked directly at the Persian envoy Arash.

"What do you think of your country?"

After working for more than a month, Arash, who had already tried his best, was exhausted, both physically and mentally.

He has done everything he can, but the country's power is declining, people's livelihood is in decline, and half of the country has been ravaged by the Ottomans. How long can the remaining half of the country be sustained?

Have no idea

Arash sighed, exuding a desolation that could not be described in words.

"I, my country, Persia, have no objections!" It was only a short sentence of eight words, but Arash tried his best to shout it out with a cry!

As soon as he finished speaking, Arash collapsed on the chair as if all the bones in his body had been taken away, sobbing continuously.

It would be a lie to say that I don’t blame Qi people. How could I not complain? In this way, one-third of the country was given to the Ottomans by the Qi people with a few words, and a large amount of money and food were also paid to them.

But Arash knew in his heart that if Qi people were not involved in this matter, Persia would probably be destroyed by the Ottomans.

Ugh.

Persia, Persia, when will you return to the time of Darius I, that great empire spanning Asia, Africa and Europe!

"Haha, good, great good, the best good!" After hearing what the people on both sides said, Li Kai smiled happily, turned slightly to one side, and looked at the official of Honglu Temple who was holding the treaty document.

The junior official understood, so he handed out the documents to the three tables one by one with wooden trays, and also thoughtfully prepared ink pads.

"Since there is no objection, let's sign and seal the treaty!" Jia Hui reached out and took out the scroll made of red sandalwood and white jade, untied the twine, and slowly opened it

The treaty written in Chinese and Arabic was presented to everyone.

In August of the seventh year of Tiansheng, the Holy War between the Ottoman Empire and Saphi Persia began. With the strong intervention of the Daqi Empire, peace talks began.

On September 15th, the seventh year of Tiansheng, the two countries reached a consensus and signed a treaty in Chang'an, the capital of the Daqi Empire, and the war officially ended.

Historically known as the Austro-Bo "Chang'an Treaty".
