Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 917 Overweight gift list
The three major barbarians refer to the Germans, Slavs, and Celts who have no writing and cannot speak a common language in the eyes of the Roman Empire.In fact, there are far more than seven types of savages, people who wear animal skins in Northern Europe, people who can't even wear clothes in Northwest Africa, and so on.

Of course, not counting Africa, the Romans, the primitive tribes in central Africa, did not regard these people as human beings.

These are pure savages.

In Mogadishu, Baoqin hunted down a huge crocodile and then two zebras with his cronies.Because Baoqin really wanted a pair of zebra leather boots, of course she would wear them back in Chang'an, not in the scorching heat of Mogadishu.

The Mediterranean, the willow to Constantine.

When the boat was about to dock, Xiao Linger, who was wearing a veil, asked Liu Mu: "My lord, Linger doesn't understand. We spent thousands of Roman gold coins just to train the senior servants of the Roman palace. It's worth a lot of money."

Dugu Lanruo also heard Xiao Linger's question, but she just smiled lightly but didn't speak.

Xie Xing'er looked at it with concern, because she didn't understand either.

Liu Mu said to Xiao Linger: "You have always been good at doing business before, but you never understood that there are no free things in this world. For the Roman Palace, they learned the special design for the Roman Palace for free. Court etiquette, then the Romans will spread the noble and aristocratic lifestyle throughout the Mediterranean."

Dugu Lanruo had already seen this.

I remember that the first batch of Liumu's scented wash was given away for free on the streets of Jingyang.

The same is true now.

Liu Mu continued: "I send you four words to cultivate the market."

Constantine will have a grand banquet. As the emperor of the Eastern Roman Empire, Heraclius sent out thousands of invitations, each of which explained the power of the Tang Empire in detail. The identity of the first princess in the Tang Empire.

Not only all the vassal states and dependent states of the Eastern Roman Empire around the Mediterranean Sea, but also other barbaric states, and even the Persian envoys who had just ceased war after fighting for many years were invited.

Compared with the barbarians in the Mediterranean, the Persians know Datang best.

The Persian envoy, Turius Mazda, a member of the royal family, was in Constantine. He came to Constantine in the Eastern Roman Empire as an envoy sent to each other after the armistice.

Since the Persian civil strife a few years ago, Persia has been unable to launch a foreign war.

This time Tullius signed a peace treaty in Constantine and Iraq that was extremely unfavorable to the Sasanian Dynasty in Persia.Return the territory of the Eastern Roman Empire that has been invaded by successive dynasties, release prisoners of war, return sacred objects, and reimburse military expenses.

It can be said that the Sassan Dynasty returned to the beginning overnight.

Except for retaining the original land, there is nothing to gain, because the Sasanian dynasty has been severely damaged by civil strife and is unable to fight the Eastern Roman Empire.

When he came to Constantine, the banquet to welcome him was just an ordinary dinner.

But this time, I heard that the number of high-level nobles invited was close to 1000, and the range was extremely wide.

Turius opened the invitation card, which was written in aristocratic Greek and Tang Chinese. Turius knew aristocratic Greek, as well as Chinese.

After reading the invitation card in detail, Tulius burst into tears holding the invitation card.

"Persia is saved, Persia is saved."

Persia had just lost a battle, not with Eastern Rome, but with the Saracens Empire, and was defeated by a superior force. Bahrain was lost and became a port city in the Basra province of the Saracen Empire.

The Saracens Empire, also known as the Arab Empire.

A priest in the envoy said after reading the invitation: "A princess, even the princess of the Tang Empire, cannot affect the military of the Tang Dynasty. No one can save Sasan except ourselves."

"The princess can't save Persia, but the princess' husband can. It's not written on it, but the husband of Her Highness Princess Tang is a very powerful man. When he was a commoner, he went north alone and used tricks to subdue a man with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses." General, and then use tricks to assign a very large piece of land to the Tang Empire."

"It seems that he is a very wise man."

Tulius was very dissatisfied with this statement of the priest, and immediately said: "Is it just wisdom? The next year, he took 800 people to the north to attack the Turkic Jieli Khan. None of the 800 people died in battle, and he killed Jieli Khan twice. Wan Jingrui, do you still think that such a person is only wise?"

The priest stayed on the spot.

"I want to take back Bahrain and more land for our Sasan. I am willing to pay any price, as long as he can provide me with a strong army, or build a strong army for me."

"Come here, take out all the treasures I brought, and dedicate them to the honorable princess of the Tang Empire."

Turius had an all-or-nothing determination.

The banquet was held as scheduled, and Liu Mu trembled in shock from the gift list of the Persian mission. The clerk beside Liu Mu estimated that no matter how much these precious gifts from Persia were worth in Persia, they would be worth at least [-] guan in Chang'an.

Some gemstones are not considered fine. If they are all of excellent color, it is not surprising to say that they are 20 guan.

Liu Mu asked the people around him: "Does anyone know who this Turius is?"

No one knew at all. A person who worked in the Ministry of Rites thought for a long time before telling Liu Mu that this person seemed to have been to Datang a few years ago, but he was definitely not the head of the envoy.

"Lang Jun, shall we return the gift?"

Liu Mu shook his head: "Stay here, just say that after the banquet, I will invite him to drink tea alone. If he doesn't like our Tang's tea, then I will invite him to drink."

"Yes!"

Liu Muxin said that no one would be so stupid as to give himself an extremely expensive gift for nothing.There must be a reason.

In fact, before Willow hosted the banquet alone, Heraclius prepared a small table by himself during the dinner, and only two guests were invited to the table, one was Willow and the other was Turius.

Heraclius was also frightened, he needed a definite and accurate statement from Turius.

Why did you give such a large and precious gift to the princess of the Tang Dynasty? Is there any conspiracy against Eastern Rome? You must know that the two countries have fought wars for more than 200 years.

After the formal banquet was halfway through, when Heraclius started the ball and Dugu Lanruo said that she was a little tired and left, the people around the small table were driven away, and no one was allowed to approach within twenty steps.

The guests were very interested, and they all made excuses to leave. Many ladies sent people to Dugu Lanruo with gifts from their own territories. Dugu Lanruo said that she would hold a tea party, and the invitation letter for the tea party became a hot item.
