The Golden Age Chapter 854: Arena
The **** who carried the ceremony said loudly above: "It's all quiet!" The hall suddenly became quiet.
Cui Shangyuan respectfully said: "Your Majesty, the great talents come forth in large numbers, which really makes the small envoys awe. There are so many young talents in the Tang Dynasty. It is no wonder that the Tang Dynasty is so brilliant, it is indeed beyond the reach of the country."
"What you said is half right." Dou Yan said loudly, "I am not only literary, but also prosperous in martial arts." Still afraid to say it.
Although the Bohai mission made things difficult, it was not too much on the whole. The saint agreed to send a mission from Bohai country. In the final analysis, he still hopes that the two countries can maintain a peaceful state. Today's Datang is no longer the former powerful iron-blooded empire, and the neighboring countries must try their best to win, so that they won't end up in the predicament of being enemies on all sides.
The deputy envoy Zhao Zhengyu suddenly smiled and said, "That's not necessarily true." After saying this, he deliberately kept silent.
But when this sentence was said, it instantly angered the monarchs and ministers of Datang. The saint frowned and said coldly: "What are you talking about?"
"The little envoy failed to speak, please, your majesty, please punish him!" Zhao Zhengyu knew the current affairs and immediately knelt down to plead guilty.
"Sometimes it seems like a gaffe, but it is intentional." Xiahou Yuanzhen, the prime minister of the country, who had been sitting on the nanmu chair, finally spoke. He had closed his eyes and calmed down before, and never said a word from beginning to end. Going up is also very depressed.
The officials knew in their hearts that An Xinghou was killed in Hangzhou, which dealt a huge blow to the prime minister. This old prime minister who has always been energetic looks like ten years old these days, and even his spirit has changed. It's sluggish.
Suddenly speaking at this time, all eyes fell on Guo Xiang.
"The ambassador dare not!"
"Deputy Envoy Zhao, since you have failed to speak, please speak clearly in front of me in front of my Tang Manchu Civil and Martial Arts." The state of the country looked calm, his voice was old and even hoarse, not angry and pretentious: "You don't seem to think I am a Tang What is the reason for the prosperous martial arts? Is it necessary to see a high and low on the battlefield so that you can make a correct judgment?"
These words were not angry or presumptuous, even with a hint of threat. The officials were all emboldened, thinking that the old country minister is the old country minister after all, and in front of the envoys of the small country, it will not lose the Tang Dynasty. Dignity, these two sentences make a person uplifting.
Cui Shangyuan hurriedly said: "Don't dare, Deputy Envoy Zhao has no such intentions. Don't misunderstand His Majesty the Emperor and the adults."
"Then what does he mean?" Dou Yan said coldly.
Zhao Zhengyu hesitated, then said: "Since the Great Bohai Mission entered the Tang Dynasty, although it has seen the beautiful scenery of the Tang Dynasty, it is difficult to see the martial arts atmosphere." After a pause, he continued: "The son and the warrior of the Tang Dynasty. Competitive martial arts, without a single defeat, so the young envoy took the liberty to make a mistake and ask His Majesty the Emperor to forgive him."
It's okay if he doesn't say that, the courtiers are even more furious.
Yuan Gai Wushuang trapped 36 people along the way. This matter has already caused a lot of indignation. Although Dali Temple wanted to investigate it, the palace did not make an order, and Dali Temple did not dare to act rashly.
In order to take care of the overall situation, the palace handled the matter as coldly as possible, but the Bohai delegation didn't open which pot to lift which pot, and Zhao Zhengyu even took the initiative to raise the words of Tang's monarchs holding them in their stomachs.
Lu Junzhong, the chief of the Xing Department, was previously irritated by Qin Xiao and had nowhere to vent. It was seen that the officials ridiculed Qin Xiao
The sea mission is full of praise, knowing that competing with the Bohai mission will get everyone’s favor, so he immediately jumped out and said sternly: "If you don’t tell me about this, we will also look for you. Then thirty Why did the six people die? You don’t know in your heart? What Datang warriors? They are just unarmed Datang civilians, you deceive...!"
Before he finished his words, Yuan Gai Wushuang had already interrupted abruptly: "Who scammed? Datang will sign life and death duels in life and death duels. I came to Datang and competed in accordance with the rules of Datang. If They disagree, why do they sign a life and death agreement? Is it because Ben Shizi put a knife on their necks to force them?"
"Yuangai Shizi, you know that they are just unarmed people, and they have not practiced martial arts, but they have to compete with them for life and death. Isn't this a massacre?" Su Yu, Qing of Dali Temple, couldn't help but say coldly at this time. "My Da Tang's martial arts talk about fairness and skill, and your so-called martial arts competition is based on the strong bullying the weak from the beginning. This is the so-called martial arts of your Bohai country?"
"Yes." Lu Junzhong rarely agrees with the people in Dali Temple, and said in a deep voice, "Since you took the initiative to bring it up, you have to give me an explanation today."
There was also a commotion in the hall.
In fact, more officials thought in their hearts that Bohai people knew that this topic would inevitably irritate the courtiers, but they still said it directly in front of Tang's emperors, and there was even arrogance in their words, of course. It could not be Zhao Zhengyu's temporary intention.
On such a major occasion, what to say must be carefully considered in advance. Since Zhao Zhengyu dared to say it, it also proved that the people of Bohai didn't care about this topic and would annoy Datang.
Yuan Gai Wushuang's eyes showed excitement, and said: "The foreign minister heard that there are many idle clouds and wild cranes in the Tang Dynasty. They are hidden among the mountain villages. They look ordinary, but their martial arts are brilliant. Those who are majestic and majestic, they are all wine bags and rice bags, and they have no real ability to learn. It is not easy to come to Datang. The foreign minister only hopes to find real masters to test martial arts." He sighed and said, "But all the way. Come, fight dozens of people, but no one can fight." At this point, he shook his head with regret.
Lu Junzhong is about to scold, but the saint has already said: "So, in your eyes, I have no master in Datang?"
"The foreign minister did not dare." Yuan Gai Wushuang immediately bowed and said: "The foreign minister came to Datang with the mission this time to pursue the martial arts, but he has not gained anything so far. So I regret that if I offend, please His Majesty the Emperor forgives."
The prime minister of the country had a faint smile, and slowly said: "The master of the Tang Dynasty is like the autumn sunset leaves, countless. Is it too arrogant to come to the Tang Dynasty to pursue martial arts at a young age?" /
"Aspirations are not in old age." Yuan Gai Wushuang respectfully said: "The foreign minister has just turned sixteen this year. His age is indeed still young, but his age cannot prevent the foreign minister from pursuing the belief in martial arts." He asked, "Could it be Datang Because of their age, will young people in the martial arts do nothing?"
Immediately, an official said in a deep voice: "My young talents in Datang are like stars in the sky, but they are not comparable to the smallest countries."
Yuan Gai Wushuang nodded and said: "I have no doubts about this, but I'm sorry, but I have never seen it so far. I am really learning, never just talk about it!"
The saint replied with majesty: "Yuan Gai Wushuang, you are so young, you even uttered wild words at the Golden Temple of the Tang Dynasty, do you know that the sky is high and the earth is thick?"
Everyone in the Bohai Mission immediately knelt down, and Cui Shangyuan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the emperor, calmed down his anger, the son said recklessly and asked for forgiveness."
"Yuan Gai Wushuang, you
Our delegation came this time to beg for marriage. Peace should be the most important thing. "The state minister said slowly: "But you said so badly that you thought I was no one in Datang. If you let you go back to China, you might always have regrets in your heart." Looking at the saint, he stood up tremblingly and arched his hands: "Holy Lord, since Yuan Gai Wushuang seeks martial arts, why doesn't he satisfy his request so that he understands what the martial arts of Tang Dynasty is?" "
The saint said "Oh" and asked: "What does the state of the country mean?"
"Yuan Gai Wushuang, I am looking for two martial arts masters to compete with you, so that you can appreciate some Tang martial arts, what do you think?" Guo Xiang looked at Yuan Gai Wushuang.
Yuan Gai Wushuang hasn't spoken yet, Cui Shangyuan has already respectfully said: "Master Xiangguo, the son is too young and has a shallow foundation. Although he has a lot of experience in martial arts, but...!"
"Zhenxiang understands what you mean." Xiahou Yuanzhen interrupted: "Are you worried that Zhenzhen selects the top masters of Datang to fight with him?" shook his head and smiled: "Don't worry, Datang always does things. Pay attention to justice. Yuangai Wushuang is sixteen this year, so he will let young talents of his age fight against him. What do you think?"
Yuan Gai Wushuang said excitedly: "I can't ask for it. But...!" He hesitated, then continued: "But the foreign minister dares to make a proposal."
"Proposal?" The saint looked at Yuangai Wushuang condescendingly, and asked: "What proposal?"
Yuan Gai no two-way saint bowed and said: "Your Majesty, my father asked Datang for marriage, but the saint could not make a decision for a while. The foreign minister suggested that it is better to decide whether to grant a marriage based on this matter. The foreign minister admires the culture of the Tang Dynasty, I have read many books of the Tang Dynasty and learned many stories of the Tang Dynasty. I heard that the Tang Dynasty has a very peculiar way of martial arts competition, called the stage of competition."
The officials looked at each other, wondering if Yuan Gai Wushuang wanted to put on the ring?
Not everyone has the courage to set the ring, if you are not outstanding, you have absolute confidence in your own skill, and if you put the ring, you will wait for self-humiliation.
"You mean you want to put on the ring?" the saint asked.
"The foreign minister is willing to set the stage outside the Sifang Pavilion." Yuangai Wushuang said loudly: "Within three days, all young Junjies under the age of 20 in Datang can take the stage to challenge. Within three days, the foreign ministers defeated all their opponents, and asked His Majesty the Emperor to grant her a favor, and grant Princess Yu Jiafu of the Great Tang as his wife." Looking up at the saint, he said word by word: "My father wants to marry the real Princess of Tang Dynasty. !"
Qin Xiao heard the words, with a dreadful heart, staring at Yuan Gai Wushuang, thinking that the Bohai Mission is going to court today, maybe this is their real goal.
Dang gave relatives, and never thought of marrying the real princess to Bohai. They just selected outstanding women to give the princess the name of the princess and marry away. However, the people of Bohai not only wanted Datang to give relatives, they also hoped that the real princess would marry the real one. Princess.
If the real princess of Datang marries Bohai, Bohai will be the only country that can obtain the blood of the Litang imperial family, and its national prestige will inevitably be greatly boosted. On the contrary, the majesty of Datang will be greatly damaged.
The most important thing is that there are only two real princesses in Datang. Except for Musk Moon, there is only Princess Changning. Of course, Princess Changning is not suitable for marrying away. In this way, if the saint agrees to Yuangai Wushuang’s proposal, Even if no one defeated Yuan Gai Wushuang within three days, then the only one who married Bohai would be Musk.
Qin Xiaoxin sneered, thinking that there is a way to heaven, you don’t want to go, and there is no way to hell. You have to break through. Sheyue is Lao Tzu’s woman, and the people from Bohai hit Sheyue with their idea. Don’t blame it. When the time comes, I will ignore the overall situation.
