Lingxian Zhenjun

Chapter 148 Hu people's thoughts, Bailong resolves
"All envoys from the Western Regions pay homage to me, His Majesty the Great Jin Emperor—"

The eunuch at the gate of the palace drummed his feet and made a loud noise. In the sight of the guards outside, the envoys from the Western Regions who were waiting on the side of the palace bowed their heads slightly under the eunuch's admonition, and stepped into the Huitong Hall. The emperor Gongsun Lun of the imperial steps pressed his chest with one hand to perform the etiquette of his own country.

"Ayena Kingdom, pay homage to the Emperor of the Great Jin Kingdom!"

"Xiubali Kingdom, pay homage to the Emperor of the Great Jin Kingdom!"

"Xiu Kun Kingdom, pay homage to the Emperor of the Great Jin Kingdom!"

"Xiaoyi Kingdom, pay homage to the Emperor of the Great Jin Kingdom!"

There were four envoys in total, their clothes were a little strange, but there was no big difference in their appearance and race, most of them could speak the language here if they were able to go to Jin.On the imperial steps, Gongsun Lun had read about the affairs of the Poshana Kingdom many times. He looked at the envoy of the Xiaoyi Kingdom with a smile in his eyes.

"I remember that Xiaoyi was originally a city in Posha, how did it come to me and become a country?"

"Reporting to the Son of Heaven, Poshana has offended the majesty of Heaven, and has lost its majesty. The people of Xiaoyi City are determined not to submit to Posha, but to stand on their own as a country!"

Listening to the other party's words, the emperor, civil and military nodded in understanding. People in foreign countries are the least loyal, and it is not uncommon in various parts of the Western Regions to turn around and establish a country on their own. As long as there are living people, It is ridiculous to say that there are several countries the size of villages and towns.

"Poshana has no morals, started a war for no reason, and killed our people and soldiers. Fortunately, there are gods and men in my country of Jin to help, and they worked together with the soldiers and people to turn the tide and drive them out of the country. Tell me, you come to the pilgrimage to see me, but do you have something to ask for?"

Gongsun Lun brushed off his wide sleeves, and pressed his palm on the dragon's head: "As long as I can accept it, I will accept it."

The court fell silent, and all the civil and military officials watched silently as these foreign envoys could make demands, and what would they do in exchange.

The four people over there looked at each other. Among them, the old man with a cane stepped forward: "Your Majesty Jin, our four kingdoms also hate Posana. They once ruled us tyrannically, took away wealth, and forcibly spread teachings. I will bear it." For a long time, I hope His Majesty Jin will not interfere."

The envoy of the Hubali Kingdom said it straightforwardly, meaning that our four countries will join forces to deal with Posha, and I hope that the Jin Kingdom will not take the opportunity to send troops, and just sit on the sidelines.

Such a thing, for Gongsun Lun and the civil and military officials present, is happy to see it come to fruition. It is best to beat out the brains. Maybe the old man's Chinese words are not well organized. This threat made many civil and military officials frown.

The old man seemed to have noticed the slight change in the faces of the people in the hall, and hurriedly said: "Don't be annoyed, the emperor, as a token of sincerity this time, our four kingdoms will use all the skilled craftsmen and practitioners in the country to present a great gift to express our sincerity to Your Majesty."

"I am a vast country with a vast land and abundant resources. Is there any mysterious thing?" A military officer snorted disdainfully, but he didn't stop him. He was still curious about what the four countries had spent their efforts to create.

Gongsun Lun over there, after all, is the emperor, his emotions and anger were not displayed, and he nodded: "Okay, then let me see, the gift from the four kingdoms!"

"Your Majesty, please move out of the palace!"

"Bold!"

The eunuch frowned coldly, but was interrupted by Gongsun Lun. He got up from the dragon chair and strode down: "It's okay, I'm also curious about what gift it is?! But if it doesn't catch my eye, I will be angry."

The four of them didn't speak, but just withdrew from the hall, thinking they were quite confident about the gift they offered.Not long after, a few dark-skinned people from the Western Regions pulled a horseless four-wheeled carriage and parked in the square. The priests of the Tianshi Mansion on the nearby attic also looked around curiously, wondering why the carriage relied on people, but There are no horses pulling.

The guarded emperor squinted his eyes and looked at it, but it was luxuriously decorated, and it didn't seem so magical.

"The four of you are going to present this carriage? In my opinion, there is nothing mysterious about it."

"Your Majesty, this is a carriage that does not need horses!"

These words immediately surprised the surrounding civil and military officials and the emperor. This was the first time they heard or saw a vehicle that did not rely on external forces. Immediately, they went down the stone steps with some curiosity, and approached the carriage step by step. Go and make way.

"fine!"

Gongsun Lun couldn't help admiring the meticulously carved lines and patterns full of Western Region colors, but he was more curious about how to drive the car to move.

"Your Majesty, please take a seat!" The envoy of Hubali, following the etiquette of the Han Dynasty, invited the emperor to get on the car and sit on the woolen seat. "Your Majesty just press the armrests on both sides and turn left If you turn to the right, you can turn, and if you want to go forward, you only need to step on a crystal stone raised in front of His Majesty's feet."

The ability from workmanship to magic not only surprised all the civil and military people around, but also surprised everyone in the Tianshi Mansion.Qiaoer frowned, thinking carefully about the principle of this car. When she looked at the senior brothers, the latter all shook their heads, expressing that they don't know, unless they can take it apart, maybe they can figure it out.

Over there, Gongsun Lun pressed the armrests on both sides excitedly, and as the envoy of the Hubali Kingdom said, the front wheel swayed with his hands left and right.

He tried to tap the round crystal stone with his toes, the carriage shook suddenly, and then moved forward smoothly.

"Good! Good!"

Gongsun Lun shouted hello a few times on the seat, his face flushed with excitement, and he drove the car back and forth on the square a few times, and he couldn't get enough of it.

The four envoys from the Western Regions over there looked at each other, each smiled, raised their chins slightly, and looked at the attic in the distance, as if they already knew where Tianshi Mansion and others were.

Among them, the female envoy of Ayana was born beautiful, with blue eyes, she could see that the emperor's intentions were not enough, so she said delicately: "Your Majesty, why not drive this car outside the palace, and let the people of Jin Kingdom have a look and show off your majesty's mighty power." majesty."

"rational!"

Gongsun Lun got this object newly, and he couldn't put it down. He pressed the handrail and turned a big bend, and greeted the palace guards and civil and military guards behind him: "Come out of the palace with me, and let the people see this thing!"

"Your Majesty, this is a skillful trick, don't be greedy!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, it is necessary for the people to admire the majesty of the Son of Heaven, but if Your Majesty drives this thing out, it will hurt Tianwei!"

A group of civil servants immediately jumped out to object. Seeing that the eyes of the four foreign envoys became less friendly, but Gongsun Lun could not listen to it now. This kind of mysterious thing fell into his hands, and he could manipulate it at will. My mind is full of thoughts of going out for a walk.

Seeing that the persuasion was ineffective, Gong Zhongwu sighed and followed the guards and soldiers all the way out of the palace. The four envoys walked in the middle of the team, very satisfied with the Jin emperor's performance.

The purpose of presenting this car was firstly to make the state of Jin open its eyes and close its eyes; secondly, it was to show the soldiers and civilians of Jin state their skilled craftsmen in the Western Regions, and by the way, show the strength of the four countries in the Western Regions.

The four-wheeled vehicles drove slowly through the long palace road, and the inspecting palace soldiers all retreated to the left and right in horror, watching the emperor sitting in the open curtain, drove the car out of the imperial city gate, and went straight to the west , walk around the streets near the Xinyang River.

"Retreat! Retreat!"

The soldiers and horses in the palace rushed forward one step ahead, controlling the main roads and high places, and drove the pedestrians and people on the street to stand under the eaves of the street. When they saw the horseless vehicles slowly approaching, they were all shocked and speechless. It wasn't until the vehicles passed by that they came back to their senses one by one.

"It was His Majesty just now?"

"The cart didn't have any horses to pull it. How did it move?"

"Did you see the people from the Western Regions just now? Could it be that the people from the Western Regions dedicated it to His Majesty?"

"That's really amazing... It is absolutely rare in the world to be able to build such a vehicle."

In the babbling of the market, the emperor was very satisfied with the surprised and curious eyes of the people on both sides, which was even more impressive than riding out of the palace.

As soon as he was approaching the Zhenjun Temple, Gongsun Lun also intended to go there. Even though Chen Yuan had no body and he couldn't see it, he still wanted to share something with him about this mysterious thing.

"How long will the emperor of Jin go?"

"The desire to show off is something no one can escape. It should be to make the emperor make a fool of himself later."

The envoy of the Hubali Kingdom smiled. The more the Jin Emperor behaved like this, the more it showed that the original intention of their creation of this thing was successful.But then, when they arrived at the Zhenjun Temple, the smiles of the few people gradually faded, and the incense was very strong here, making them frown.

"Where is this place? There are so many Jin people worshiping gods?"

The female envoy of Ayena country laughed: "In my country, there are many such prosperous temples, and it's nothing unusual."

During the words, in the Zhenjun Temple not far away, the gods seemed to open their eyes, and a divine light burst out slightly. After a while, Chen Yuan rose to the top of the temple, looked at the diagonally opposite street with his hands behind his back, and the horseless horse pulled The vehicle drove slowly, but he was slightly stunned for a moment, and he didn't think it was unusual in his eyes.

After all, I am tired of seeing cars all over the street.

But right now the emperor is happy, so he just watched from afar. However, the people behind him suddenly surged with mana, and the vehicle they were driving suddenly stopped. Gongsun Lun only felt that the chair under his buttocks seemed to be Like pushing him, he rushed forward.

"These barbarians!" On the top of the temple, Chen Yuan murmured slightly, and immediately raised her hand to swipe.

At this moment, in the carriage far away, Gongsun Lun's body seemed to be blocked by something, and he was pushed back to sit back. Suddenly, a familiar feeling came over his face.

The four foreign envoys were stunned. They made excuses, but the expected thing didn't happen.At this moment, a gust of wind suddenly blows, and a thunder rolls across the sky.

The believers, pilgrims, and common people in front of the temple suddenly shouted ouch, and retreated one after another, yelling: "Oh, the white snake comes out!"

"Miss Snake!!"

The emperor on the car here has not recovered his senses, a white shadow wandered in mid-air, flew towards it, rose in the wind, and turned into a five-foot-long snake coiled on the roof of the car, a group of startled guards drew their knives and arrows When pointing it away, the snake didn't mean to hurt Gongsun Lun, but wrapped around the carriage instead, with its huge head slightly lowered towards the emperor.

Snakes are called little dragons. This behavior is like submitting to the emperor, showing that he is the real emperor. For a while, believers and hundreds of believers in front of the temple knelt down and kowtowed.

The soldiers who had come forward with swords also half-knelt down while leaning on their weapons. In such a scene, if they didn't follow suit, it would be a sin.

The trembling Gongsun Lun, being worshiped by everyone at this time, the energy in his heart also followed. First there was a magical vehicle pulled by a horse, and then there was a white snake to meet him. He was really majestic. Solemnly, he said some words to the people around him, and a few words of encouragement, showing the style of a wise king.

And the envoys of the four countries over there also bowed and saluted at this time, and secretly looked at the temple over there, and they remembered it.

……

In the past half a day, Gongsun Lun was so majestic and happy, the white snake suddenly appeared to help him show his majesty, how could he not understand that it was the icing on the cake of Chen Yuan in the temple.

"The temple blessings in the Zhenjun Temple often rescue and help the people, so that everyone in Luodu can live and work in peace and contentment. A mere temple can't be used to show its achievements. You, why don't you issue another imperial decree to move Zhenjun to Luodu? Chenghuang, what do you think?"

The civil and military people below have seen all kinds of miracles today, and their family members often go to the temple to pay homage to the true emperor, and there is nothing to object to. If people are alive and give rewards wantonly, they may say something, but no matter how rewarding they are now , It’s not an exaggeration, even if you make an emperor, they will nod in agreement.

After all, the living are different from the dead.

At this time, in the Siyi Pavilion, the envoys from the countries of the Western Regions were gathering in the small courtyard of the envoys of the Shubali Kingdom, sitting under a tree, surrounding the stone table, and discussing the next thing.

The gift has been delivered, and the emperor of the Jin Kingdom also promised to turn a blind eye and let them besiege the Poshana Kingdom.

All that remains is to return to their respective countries.

When they left temporarily, they had to do one more thing, destroying the temple today, which really made a part of their plan come to nothing. If they didn't report back, they might not be happy on the way back.

"The gods of the Jin Kingdom enshrined in the temple really think that they are the ones from the Butchera Kingdom?"

next moment.

A cloudy wind blew into the courtyard, and the lights in the houses that were still on were all extinguished, and the surroundings were instantly dead silent, even the sound of insects disappeared without a trace.

The moment the four of them got up, white mist came in from the closed courtyard door along the crack of the door.

In the mist outside, there was a clanging sound.

A guard of the Western Regions carefully glanced out, as if a dark and hoarse voice came, his face faded, he stumbled back, and fell to the ground, looking at the four envoys under the tree, speaking in Western Region dialect Stuttering mouth.

"... came outside the door... came a... ox head... looking for the four adults... to go with him... for a while."

As soon as the words fell, the courtyard was filled with gloom in an instant, and the faces of the four people suddenly changed violently, and there was a bang, and the courtyard door was kicked inward.

……

In the Bieyuan of Tianshi Mansion not far from the building, Taoist priests such as Minghui who were talking about today's events, and Qiaoer clearly felt a violent yin energy coming from afar.

"It's in the direction of the Siyi Pavilion!"

Although the barbarians are rude, after all, if something happens in the city of Jin as an envoy, it will not be a good thing for the country's face.

"I knew that this group of barbarians would provoke Chen Yuan, and they would definitely speak ill of him behind his back!" Ming Hui packed up the magic weapon and hurried out, telling Qiao'er to stay in the courtyard, but the girl couldn't hold back Follow up stalking.

The closer they got to the Siyi Pavilion, the dharma gates in their bodies were stimulated to operate on their own, the yin energy seemed to be extremely cold, and the further they walked, the colder it became, as if it was winter.
