Chapter 420 The Real Master

The people of Chang'an would never mind joining in the fun.

Watch beheadings under the lonely willow tree, watch Hu merchants in the East and West markets, watch the ceremonial guards on Zhuque Street, and watch bald heads on Anshang Street. They are all good places to join in the fun.

And today there is one more thing, that is watching Japanese slaves outside Chunming Gate.

In fact, the people did not know what the Japanese slaves were, but someone curious asked the knight who escorted them and learned that he was an envoy from the Japanese slave kingdom in the East China Sea, who came here to pay a pilgrimage to the Heavenly Khan of the Tang Dynasty. So the people of Chang'an understood:

Just another follower of the country.

It's just that compared to the barbarians from the Western Regions who are rich in spices, the various tricks of the Japanese made the people of the Tang Dynasty feel more interesting.

Seeing them running in groups to the city gate and looking up, they almost fell down unconsciously.

As they looked at the pedestrians coming and going, there was a burst of jabbering, and you could tell how shocked they were just from their faces and voices.

All these things made the people watching laugh.

At this time, there happened to be a beauty from a wealthy family returning from outside the city, accompanied by a servant. The Japanese envoy couldn't help but glanced over, and they all couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

This did not offend the beauty at all, after all, the tallest among the envoys only reached her shoulders, and the rest were like peas or even inferior to the young men from Chang'an.

But such behavior immediately made the officer who sent them here impatient, and he immediately whipped it to the ground to make the Japanese people look away.

"That guy named Quan, take care of your people!"

So one of the members of the envoy nodded and ran out to apologize to the officer. This humble gesture made the bored people around him laugh.

After nodding and bowing to apologize, the leader of the Japanese mission did not feel any discomfort. He turned around and sighed with a monk next to him:

"Physician Huiri, this Tang Zhen is from the country."

The monk named Hui Ri's expression remained unchanged and he just asked:

"Sir, be sure to take good care of the mission, and don't make the people of Tang Dynasty unhappy, causing the Khan of Heaven to blame us."

Inugami Odasui agreed wholeheartedly, but still reluctantly glanced back at the direction in which the beauty left.

He didn't dare to think anything wrong about the woman from this country. What he noticed was the Turkic slave following the woman.

This is actually his second visit to Chang'an.

In the tenth year of his reign, he went to the Sui Dynasty as an envoy on the order of Prince Shotoku.

The vast territory, gorgeous palaces and powerful army left a shocking impression on him, but the frequent wars also made him like a frightened rabbit, and he couldn't wait to escape after only staying for half a year.

Only the monks accompanying the group insisted on staying and said they wanted to study Buddhism.

Inugami Odasui originally thought that these monks had died long ago, but eight years later these monks appeared in front of him again, claiming that China had returned to peace after the Sui Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty.

Moreover, this group of monks persuaded Inugami Odaho, who had seen the prosperity of China, to persuade Emperor Shuming to re-send the Tang envoy.

This matter did not go smoothly, but fortunately, I finally succeeded in getting the emperor's order and boarded the ship to sail west.

The only slight difference was that after arriving in Baekje, they learned the news immediately: the Turks had been destroyed, their king performed a dance before the Chinese emperor, and all the remaining Hu were made the Chinese emperor as the Khan of Heaven.

So Inugami Odasui looked at the pharmacist Megumi with a little suspicion:

What if they agreed to be reunited but were far weaker than the Sui Dynasty?

But Hui Ri, the pharmacist, couldn't care about this at this time. After learning the name of Tian Khan, he was a little confused:

The poor monk remembered that before returning eastward, the prince's name was Li Jiancheng?

Although they didn't know the details, the two of them soon reached a consensus: in short, the most respectful attitude was the right thing to do.

Huiri wanted to use the envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty to increase the influence of Buddhism and preach in the Japanese territory, so he wanted to ensure that there would be no mistakes in this trip.

As the leader in persuading the emperor to resume sending envoys to the Tang Dynasty, Inugami Odasui could only succeed and not fail.

So the mission was delayed in Baekje for half a year. On the one hand, it had to send people back to inform the emperor to modify the wording of the credentials, and on the other hand, it was necessary for the mission to learn etiquette and try not to make mistakes.

It was not until the beginning of the fifth year of Zhenguan that the envoys who went to sea in the beginning of the fourth year of Zhenguan arrived in Chang'an.

But half a year's study was destined to be in vain. The magnificent city, the tall Tang people, the gorgeous decorations, and the unimaginable wealth of the country all made the Japanese shout with excitement.

Inugami Odasa is a Turkic slave who is very envious of that beauty.

When will the emperor be able to lead them to conquer such a powerful country and demote all its soldiers into slaves and use them at will?

And the Tang Dynasty conquered the Turks. If it could conquer the Tang Dynasty... Inugami Odahao quickly put a stop to such dangerous thoughts and buried them deep in his heart with a cold sweat.

But after having such a wild idea, when Inugami Odasaru looked at the prosperous Chang'an again, he lamented more and more in his heart:

Heaven and earth are so unkind that I was born in a Japanese country!

But soon Inugami Odasui realized that it was too early to sigh.

After waiting for a while, a group of officials finally came out of Chang'an City. After the exchange, Inugami Odasa also knew that the leader was Dianke Cheng from Honglu Temple, and he was going to take them to the post office.

"Why not Hongluqing?" Yutian spade asked. He still roughly remembered China's control.

But unfortunately, he did not know Chinese elegance, and Hui Ri, the only pharmacist who could translate, chose to remain silent.

After all, it is better to do less than to do more. How much difference can there be between Dianke Cheng and Honglu Qing? Aren’t they all official officials of the Tang Dynasty?

After entering the city, the prosperous scene also made Mita Kuwa quickly forget this question.

At this moment, he no longer believed what Yakushi Huiri had said before, that the Tang Dynasty was far inferior to the Sui Dynasty.

The complex and diverse elegant and foreign languages ​​filled his head, and the gorgeous colors occupied his eyes. He wanted to see and remember the scenes around him. The envoys sighed that they would give everything if they could live in Chang'an for a long time.

The Minister of the Imperial Household was not surprised by this. While leading the way, he had the spare time to briefly introduce the simple situation of Chang'an to them. Every word recounted by Huiri could cause the whole envoys to exclaim.

In Japan, they were all children of the rich, but because of this, everyone knew about the old story of sending envoys to the Sui Dynasty, and they also knew that the current system of Japan was all learned from the Sui Dynasty.

Even the clothes they were wearing at this moment were a hard imitation of the Sui Dynasty, which was why the people of Chang'an couldn't help laughing when they saw them.

It was also because of this that the view of Chang'an at this time made the envoys feel complicated.

The imitator felt humbled by the difference between the two and a strange sense of pride because of the strength of the real master:

Look, this is the superior country we are learning from!

This wonderful feeling lasted until he was received by the Khan a few days later.

Oden Kuwade, who was lying on the ground, heard the sound of thunder that seemed to fall from the sky. It was an interesting question:

"The ruler of Wa, do you still call yourself the emperor?"

Oden Kuwade, who was lying on the ground, seemed to hear the sound of blood freezing in his body.

This part is expected to end tomorrow.
