Tribute to Shenjing

For seven consecutive days, the entire city of Shenjing was in a state of celebration.

People are basically resting, and the fatigue of the whole year begins to relax during this time period.

This is also a positive change brought about by Yang Guang, because last year was actually a bad year.

Otherwise, according to the past situation, let alone the new year, even the new year may not be a good one.

It was because of Yang Guang’s effective supply that Shenjingcheng was able to recuperate.

The refugees from outside were properly resettled without incident.

Needless to say, people are grateful to Yang Guang.

When the time came to the eighth day, teams of special teams ushered in at the gate of Shenjing City.

These people are all tribute teams from foreign lands.

Speaking of which, the Dagan Dynasty was not as strong as the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Dagan was more about defending, and did not take the initiative to use troops abroad.

Therefore, there are actually not many foreign countries that came to pay tribute.

But there are nearly twenty of them, large and small.

Almost all the countries around Dagan came.

Because no matter how much Dagan doesn’t use his troops abroad, he will still beat him up when it’s time to beat him up.

The surrounding countries, except Izumo, which is isolated overseas.

Others like Nanyue, Silla, Yelang, etc.

Basically, they were beaten once during the founding period of Dagan.

So the tradition of paying tribute was established at that time.

You can’t do it if you don’t come. Even though Dagan’s national power has weakened compared to the founding period, if you don’t come, he will really beat you up.

Early in the morning, Yang Guang returned to his home in Shenjing from Taoyuanzhuang.

He doesn’t want to come back. There are delicious food, wine and beauties in Taoyuanzhuang, and he can soak in hot springs without enjoying the treatment of cold air.

Only those who are sick are willing to return to Shenjing, but there is no way.The women in the family felt bored and wanted to see how other countries paid tribute.

Then Yang Guang was dragged out. He just took a look. Anyway, he hadn’t seen it, so it would be good to gain some insight.

“Look quickly, those people’s hair is so strange, it’s so ugly to leave such a small piece on it and make a braid!”

“What are you? Look at those women’s faces. They are too white. They look so weird!”

A group of women are scumbags, and they look like they have never seen the world.

What he was pointing at was the team from Izumo Country. Yang Guang also looked at it and shook his head.

Isn’t this thing the foot pot chicken from those islands in the previous life?

There were other teams that came from the tribute. Yang Guang discovered that they could actually find the comparison targets one by one.

If this is a small world, then the creator was really lazy and just copied it and changed the name.

Compared with other court officials, Yang Guang, the Marquis of Jing’an, brought the most people and the most ostentation.

However, all the dignitaries and civil servants around him pretended not to see them.

Some people even came up to flatter them, making Yang Guang’s team the focus of everyone’s attention.

The common people were also watching the excitement, seeing the Marquis of Jing’an’s camp.

After inquiring, yes, it was the food and clothing parents who bowed their hands in the distance, which was regarded as respect.

It was impossible for Emperor Yongzheng, who saw all this from the gate tower of the imperial city, to say that there was no fluctuation in his heart.

But what can he do? I can only pretend that I didn’t see it.

This guy Yang Guang is high-profile enough, he took out the loudspeaker and shouted.

“Ahem, please pay attention, thank you for your cooperation.”

“Today is the day when Fanbang came to pay tribute. Just take a look and don’t crowd and push.”

“Actually, there’s nothing to see here. What I brought here are their local specialties, which aren’t very valuable.”

“Everyone just take a look at it and go home.”

“For those who celebrate the Chinese New Year, don’t have any accidents. It’s not worth it.”

“There are New Year’s gifts I prepared for you in the supermarket, everyone remember to go and get them!”

The sound spread far away, and all the onlookers on Zhuque Street heard it.

Immediately, there were laughter from the common people, and some people shouted New Year greetings to the Marquis of Jing’an.

Then these people actually paid homage to each other from afar, and then left in an orderly manner.

The tribute team walking in the middle of Zhuque Street was also stunned.

In previous years, they played monkey games in the middle, and the people around them were surprised.

They might not have the idea that these people are country bumpkins, but something is wrong today.

First, the unknown noble took out a magical horn, which seemed to be able to transmit sound for hundreds of miles.

Then after shouting a few words, these ordinary people really left obediently.

They have all left, so who are they showing such a big show to?

Just when they were at a loss, officials from the Ministry of Rites appeared in front of them.

Take all these people to the official residence of the Ministry of Rites and settle them down.

It was the same rhythm in previous years, but this year seems to be different.

A group of people came out from the back of Nanyue Kingdom, and asked the officials of the Ministry of Rites.

“My lord, may I ask where the residence of the Marquis of Jing’an is?”

That little official is upset because he wants to receive these foreign people.

Why is everyone on holiday, but their etiquette department is too busy to keep their feet on the ground?

Hearing that someone came to inquire about things suddenly, he immediately got angry.

“Why are you asking this? Who is the Marquis of Jing’an, and you, a small envoy, can ask?”

Hearing this, the man was not annoyed, he just said.

“I am the envoy of Huaxi, specially ordered by the Marquis of Jing’an to send my holy daughter into the Marquis’s mansion as a concubine.”

“By the way, the king of Nan’an County is also in my account. He wants to return it to Lord Hou. Please let me know.”

The little official who was angry at first was so frightened that he almost knelt down when he heard about the other party’s origin and purpose.

Quickly pointing to where Yang Guang is, he smiled and said, “So it’s a family, and Lord Hou is right there.”

“However, Lord Hou is playing now so don’t disturb me. You come with me first, and I’ll take you to Lord Hou’s mansion to wait.”

“By the way, you guys, prepare good rooms and drinks for these Huaxi brothers, and you may come back to live later.”

“Also, arrange these guys properly so that nothing goes wrong, or you will be the only ones asking.”

The little official left, and the other officials of the Ministry of Rites were aggrieved, feeling that an opportunity to flatter was robbed.

Then, looking at the people who came to pay tribute, he felt more and more unhappy, and his attitude can be imagined.

As for the tribute envoys, they were all in a daze. They didn’t understand why this happened. It wasn’t like this in previous years.

But for those who are interested, they have already memorized the three characters of Jing’an Hou. The Huaxi people can be seen as a small tribe.

But just relying on the three characters of Jing’an Hou, he actually got different courtesy.

With others is the Huaxi Brothers, with them are those guys?

······

They were treated differently, but they had no choice but to swallow their anger. Everything was for the tribute.

This year even the Daliao Kingdom came.

Speaking of which, Yang Guang’s three guards directly cut off the connection between Daliao and Dagan.

This made Daliao miserable, because Daliao was located in the grassland, and many materials could not be produced by itself.

So they had no choice but to take the risk of sending a tribute team.

Although they have experienced some dangers, fortunately they have arrived at Shenjing City.
