Datang Almighty Dad

Chapter 147
"Forgive me, please forgive me... We just want to cheat some money, we don't want to die..." The duo of double-spring liars cried and cried while being dragged down. Li Er waved his hand, signaling to go down and be careful For interrogation, if you ask clearly, you will be killed. If you dare to cheat the Tang Dynasty's money, it will be a long life.

Li Yuanying summoned a young eunuch and whispered a few words, the latter obeyed and withdrew, the banquet in the main hall was about to begin.

When the banquet started and the singing and dancing accompanied the music, Xiao Doudou was almost full. She couldn't understand one thing, so she asked her father, "Daddy, those two people are liars, why did they come to lie to us?" money?"

"Uh... maybe they are short of money." Li Yuanying really couldn't answer.

"Then why do we have to pay? You see, when they come to us, we take care of food and housing, so they have to pay us, right?" Xiao Doudou is most concerned about this, "Could it be to salute and say hello to my uncle? Can I make money?"

"What are you doing?" Li Yuanying asked her daughter who was standing up.

"I'm going to ask my second uncle for money. I salute him every day when I see him. It's been a month, two, three... in short, it's been a long time since I met him."

Really drunk, is that okay?What kind of daughter did I have?Little money fan!
Li Yuanying didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she hurriedly pulled her daughter back, and explained patiently: "Small countries in the four directions sent envoys to pay homage to Datang, and some of them offered congratulatory gifts. After saluting to your second uncle, do they have to read a list of gifts? Datang Giving them property is a gift in return."

"Oh... So that's how it is. That's bartering? Are these people here to do business? Then why do you worship? Can't you just come here and say a deal?" Xiao Doudou seems to have inherited his father's business gene , I know how to do business at such a young age.

Before Li Yuanying could answer, the little guy suddenly realized and said loudly: "Ah! I understand, those two scammers must be shoddy, giving Datang some worthless things, and then trying to cheat us out of a bunch of valuable things. Good thing, isn’t it like this, Daddy? Hee hee, am I smart?”

This... Li Yuanying couldn't help laughing, her daughter's words were not rough, the truth was indeed the truth.

Why did you suddenly become quiet?Is the song and dance session over?Li Yuanying was puzzled, and looked up, huh... Everyone stopped and looked at her side, or at her daughter who was talking loudly.

It's over, needless to say, just now my daughter's clever discovery, the voice is too loud, the whole hall heard it, how can this be done?It's too embarrassing, even if these envoys really have a lot of bad intentions to come to get food, drinks and gifts, you can't expose them in person and slap them in the face.

Sure enough, before Li Yuanying opened his mouth to smooth things over, the Turkic envoy Zhao Deyan was dissatisfied and said, "His Royal Highness, what is your intention? We have come to visit His Majesty the Tang Emperor on behalf of the monarch, how can you guess us so? It is a shame to us." Is the country small and weak?"

"Yes! Your Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, although we are a small country, we are not beggars who come to beg for food. Why do you slander us like this?" The Goguryeo envoy followed with fury.

Small countries are like ignited gunpowder kegs, and they are making noise one after another. Is this okay?
At this moment, Emperor Li Er waved away the singing and dancing personnel with a smile, and said gently to the envoys: "Everyone, please be safe and don't be impatient, it's just a misunderstanding, the child is just talking about those two liars, everyone The genuine special envoys of various countries are my guests at the Tang Dynasty, and I and all the ministers and workers will not make random guesses."

"You can't say that. It is said that the child speaks the truth. How old is the little princess? How does she learn to comment on the world's major events? It must be through her ears..." Zhao Deyan said disdainfully.

"Bastard, you dare to slander His Highness King Qin? I'll kill you! I can catch you once on the battlefield, but now I can..." Cheng Yaojin got up in a rage, and the rest of the generals did not fall behind, even the old commander Li Jing. stood up.

Li Yuanying chuckled, waved his hands down the crowd, and then said loudly to Zhao Deyan: "Others have the right to question, but you can't! A few days ago, Jieli led 20 troops to invade our Tang Dynasty, and we beat them back in embarrassment. The enmity with Datang is settled. The two sides are not friendly neighbors, but enemy countries. Can you feel at ease when you come to worship? It is not an exaggeration to say that weasels give chicken New Year greetings."

Li Er scolded his younger brother, and then calmly explained: "My fifth brother and I both know that you have come all the way for the sake of diplomatic relations. In order to prevent everyone from making a trip in vain, Datang will naturally give you generous gifts in return."

Um?Everyone was attracted by this generous gift, especially those poor and small countries, such as Baekje, Khitan, Mohe and so on.

"In view of everyone's sincerity, I think you must look down on gold and silver vulgar things. It is too perfunctory to show these things, which is an insult to everyone, so this year's return gift is unprecedented. Come, let's announce it now." Li Er Signal the high servant to announce the decree.

The servant, Gao Gao, took out the imperial decree and began to read it full of spirit. Everyone listened attentively. After listening, they were collectively dumbfounded. No one, including Li Yuanying, thought that this gift in return...

what is it then?Datang Guozijian study qualifications, according to the size of each country, can give you different places to study, that is to say, Datang will not impose a national border blockade on academic knowledge, and countries can select outstanding students to come to Datang to study arts at their discretion.

Pfft... Many people want to vomit blood. For example, the envoys of Goguryeo thought it was really tricky. You said a lot about how rare and precious, so this is it?Okay, we are not short of money, but if you give the quota, you will give it well, according to the site?My Goguryeo is a powerful country that can compete with your Tang Dynasty, so you will give me a place?Enough for whose children?
But the same problem is not seen in other countries. For example, the Khitan country. At this time, it should be said that it is the Khitan tribe. They are still nomadic peoples in the Northeast.

The Khitan envoy was also cursing secretly, he really wanted to stand up and shout, we are all vulgar people, slow to learn culture, we still like real gold and silver, don't think it's vulgar, can we exchange the quota for gold and silver vulgar things, A little insult is also acceptable.

Xiao Doudou looked at the scene with different expressions and reactions, and asked curiously: "Father, what's wrong with them? Is the Imperial College that the second uncle said is terrible? Why are they like this?"

Li Yuanying laughed and said: "The Imperial College is the sacred place for scholars of the Tang Dynasty. Those who can study, read and learn knowledge in it will be the pillars of the country in the future. No matter how many people ask for it, they will not be able to come. I plan to send you there next year."

"Really, Daddy? So it's a school, is it fun?"

……Is it fun?Li Yuanying's face darkened, and she wondered if I made a wrong decision?

A feast, because of various accidents, made people panic, everyone was in a good mood, in fact, except for the Tang emperor and ministers, the rest of the envoys were all upset.

Li Yuanying returned home with her daughter, imagining in her mind that she heard a New Year's Eve bell, which she might not be able to hear in this otherworldly Tang Dynasty.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for passing the first New Year's Eve in Datang. You will be rewarded with a parent-child New Year's Eve gift bag and a parent-child New Year gift bag. Please pay attention to check! At the beginning of the new year, the function of renaming the tavern has been refreshed, and the owner can choose to rename the tavern!"
