Chapter 429
The martial arts competition was very exciting. The warriors of Daliao were all highly skilled in kung fu, but the envoys of those small countries were not easy-going lamps. After ten or so competitions, two small countries won one game each.
This martial arts contest was originally a matter of feasting and drinking, and winning or losing was not so important. Besides, after all, the warriors of the Daliao Dynasty won more.Therefore, the emperor really didn't care much about it. Instead, he ordered people to reward the warriors of those two small countries heavily.The emperor's actions showed the demeanor of a great country, which impressed all the envoys.
However, in the hearts of the envoys of various countries, there is an imbalance in their hearts, and some people are racking their brains at this time to find ways to show off.
"Your Majesty, Daliao is indeed rich in talents and powerful in force. These ministers are naturally incomparable. However, Xiao Wang heard that Daliao has a vast land and rich resources, and it produces all kinds of silk. Xiao Wang has something here. I want to present it to His Majesty." The person who stood up and spoke was the king of Nanshao Kingdom.
Nan Shao Kingdom is located in the southwestern border of Daliao, and its territory is not too large.However, the local climate is pleasant and the products are relatively rich, so the national strength of Nan Shao is quite strong.In recent years, the Great Liao has conquered the West and pacified many small countries. Even though Nanshao's national strength is not bad, it cannot be compared with the Daliao after all. Therefore, a few years ago, it surrendered to the Daliao.
The king of Nan Shao Kingdom is a proud and arrogant person. At the beginning, he had to surrender for the sake of the people in the country, but he was unwilling in his heart after all.This time I personally brought people to Daliao, in addition to paying tribute, I also wanted to take the opportunity to spy on Daliao's national strength, and also wanted to negotiate with Daliao to earn more benefits from the trade between the two countries.
Just now the warriors of Nanshao also ended their martial arts competition, but they lost to the warriors of Daliao. The king of Nanshao felt a little unhappy.So I stood up now and deliberately brought up this topic, just to draw out the following things.
At this moment, the contest had come to an end, and the emperor was thinking about letting kabuki play again, but when he heard the king of Nanshao say this, he became curious. "Oh? What treasure does Aiqing have? Quickly present it and let me take a look."
In this kind of banquet occasion, the emperor is still very relaxed, and he doesn't have much emperor airs.Left and right are drinking for fun, no matter what the other party brings out, the emperor will not be angry.
Now that the emperor had said so, the King of Nanshao turned around to signal the people behind him, and took out a brocade box.They have already prepared for the banquet, so naturally they don't need to go back to the post house to pick it up. "Your Majesty, this is a piece of brocade that my little girl wove by herself. My little girl is ingenious and has loved knitting women's reds since she was a child. It took her a lot of work to weave it. Please appreciate it by Your Majesty."
As the King of Nanshao spoke, he ordered someone to come forward with the brocade box and hand it to the servant next to the emperor.In such an occasion, there is no need to worry about ghosts inside the brocade box. When these people entered the palace, the imperial guards had already checked them out.The waiter was holding the box, but he felt a little disdainful in his heart. It's really a small country, and it's ridiculous that a piece of brocade can be regarded as a treasure.
The people in the hall had almost the same thoughts in their hearts.You know, Daliao's silk weaving technology is famous all over the world. The king of Nanshao actually got a piece of brocade and sent it up as a treasure, and everyone looked down on it.Therefore, no one paid special attention to it. They drank and laughed and talked without looking at the brocade box at all.
The servant came to the emperor with the brocade box in his hand, and then casually opened the brocade box, intending to take out the contents and present it to the emperor.But when he opened the brocade box, he couldn't help exclaiming, "Ah, what a beautiful brocade."
This servant has been serving the emperor all year round. If it is said to be rare treasures in the world, I don't know how many times he has seen them.At this moment, such exclamation was made, so that those who didn't pay much attention to this matter couldn't help but look up.
Chu Ruifeng's seat was very close to the emperor, and the angle was just right. In addition, he had excellent eyesight, so he had already noticed the piece of brocade in the servant's hand.With Chu Ruifeng's knowledge and eyesight, after seeing the brocade, his expression also changed a little.
You know, Chu Ruifeng has been engaged in overseas trade all year round, and among them, silk is the main commodity, and Chu Ruifeng is also a big expert in silk fabrics.With just one glance, he could tell that the piece of brocade in front of him was absolutely extraordinary.
After the servant exclaimed in surprise, he knew that he had lost his composure, so he quickly restrained his expression, but there was still shock in his eyes.He quickly winked at the servant next to him, and called someone to unfold the piece of brocade in the brocade box together with him.
When the brocade unfolded, everyone's eyes were also attracted, and some people couldn't help but let out bursts of exclamation. "It's so beautiful, how on earth is this made?"
King Nanshao was a little proud at the moment, he stood there and said with a smile on his face, "The most amazing thing about this thing is that it can change color with the shift of light, making the flowers and birds on it seem to be alive. Your Majesty, the small country of Nanshao has no rare treasures, and the little girl is poor in craftsmanship, so please don't dislike her." The King of Nanshao was not humble, but very proud.
How can the emperor listen to what others say at this moment?He looked at it head-on, and the visual impact was greater.The piece of brocade in front of me does not know what kind of material it is. Needless to say, the colors are bright and the patterns are exquisite. The key point is that as the two servants walk around, the flowers and birds on it really seem to be alive, which is simply amazing.
"Well, how is this weaved? Did Aiqing ever bring Ling Qianjin? I really want to meet such an ingenious person. It's amazing." The emperor was fascinated by the piece of brocade in front of him. It is impossible to take a look at Princess Nanshao.
The king of Nanshao secretly rejoiced, this is what he wanted.It is said that the emperor of Daliao loves beauties the most. If his own daughter can fall into the eyes of the emperor of Daliao, then Nan Shao will inevitably follow her.This was the way he had worked so hard to come up with, first using this magical brocade to attract the emperor's attention, and then attracting his own daughter.
"This time, my daughter also came to the capital with my servants, but she was not allowed to enter the palace to face the saint without being summoned by His Majesty." King Nanshao replied cautiously.
As soon as the emperor heard this, he hurriedly ordered people to summon Princess Nanshao to the palace to face the saint.Everyone was not surprised by the emperor's behavior. The emperor's personality is like this, and he loves beauties the most.If this princess of Nanshao looks good, if she wants to come to the harem, she will have to have another favorite concubine.
Of course, there are some people who are unhappy, such as Ulanna and Chu Ruifeng.Ulanna was naturally worried that once the princess of Nan Shao Kingdom entered the palace, she would pose a threat to the status of the noble concubine, while Chu Ruifeng was worried about the emperor's health.This Nanshao is not simple, witchcraft is prevalent, if Princess Nanshao is proficient in this way, the emperor may be in danger.
