The man from Dahai watched strangely as Princess Dalai negotiated with the Prince of Tang Dynasty on the deck. The tongue man next to him quickly translated for him the words between Princess Dalai and the Prince of Tang Dynasty.
When he heard that his most beloved daughter actually scolded the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty to die, he, with his keen mind, sensed an unusual meaning in these words.
The courtiers on both sides were so frightened that their jaws almost dropped to the ground when they heard Princess Dalai scolding His Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty so confidently.
But I tried my best to look around, but I saw that the figure did not seem angry or angry. I just heard through the tongue that His Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty shouted: "Within three years, if you can't pay off the money you owe me to the Tang Dynasty, , then next time I come to pay you a friendly visit, it won’t be these warships, and I will give you more surprises.”
"Three years is enough. It won't be too late to discuss it later with the capital and Zhaigong." Dahairen, who is in his forties, should be at this age when he is high-spirited and hardworking, but because of His Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, Personally leading troops to conquer the Japanese country forced him to choose to endure the great cause he wanted to create.
"But fortunately, they agreed that we can continue to send envoys to the Tang Dynasty, which can be considered a good thing." Mr. Heyibu said with a wry smile.
Although the fact that we can continue to send envoys to the Tang Dynasty is not comparable to the 23 million taels of silver as compensation for the cession of territory, considering the worst case scenario, it can be regarded as a little comfort to His Majesty the Emperor.
"It's up to you to choose. We must send our smartest students to Datang. Let them work hard and learn all the good things from Datang!" A line appeared on Dahairen's lips. Neat teeth marks, even with a trace of blood.
"Father..." Princess Dalai looked at Dahairen with a solemn and solemn expression, and naturally felt uncomfortable in her heart. She hesitated and didn't know how to express her request to Dahairen.
Originally, his father had high hopes for him, hoping to build a Zhai Palace to quell the unfavorable remarks about his father in the country. However, due to the huge compensation from the Tang Dynasty, it is unlikely that the Zhai Palace will be rebuilt within a few years. .
"What do you want to say?" Hairen looked at Princess Dalai lovingly, trying hard to squeeze out a smile on his face.
This daughter who was appointed by him as the first Saio, this daughter who was attached to God and came for God was the key to quelling the unfavorable remarks for himself. It seems that there should be other ways to quell the rumors in the country for himself.
"I...I..." Princess Dalai hesitated for a long time. Just when everyone in Dahai was about to hurry up, Princess Dalai whispered: "Father, I want to study in the Tang Dynasty and learn their warships and buildings. , culture and everything else, I want to learn a lot in a few years and help my father overcome all these difficulties. "
"Will he agree?" Dahairen said worriedly as he looked at the Tang Prince on the deck in the distance.
"I don't know. Maybe if I ask him, he will agree."
Dahairen nodded thoughtfully. This is the only plan for now. Princess Dalai herself has high expectations for her. If she can learn more from the Tang Dynasty and come back, for herself, It’s a big help!
Cui Zhibian became the first Tang military general stationed in Japan by the Tang Dynasty Navy. However, at Li Hong's deliberate request, the people of Dahai had no choice but to stay at the seaside and immediately announced Cui Zhibian as the Japanese naval marshal.
As for why he is a marshal, Li Hong explained that it sounds very domineering and is more in line with the style of your Japanese country as a great country.
As a result, the three warships were left at the three ports of Japan, and in the next month, more soldiers of the Tang Dynasty would be stationed to guard the safety of Japanese fishermen at sea and the coastline of Japan.
Princess Dalai didn't bring anything with her, not even the palace maid that Dahairen prepared for her temporarily. She stayed alone on her husband's ship and refused to go to Datang.
In desperation, someone had to wave his hands impatiently and agreed to Princess Dalai's request to go to the Tang Dynasty. However, the annual expenses for food, accommodation and other expenses increased from ten thousand to fifty thousand taels of silver.
This made Princess Dalai, who had been so excited just now, suddenly look down on her face, and she wanted to pounce on Li Hong again and bite him a few times.
"Why did you agree to my request for three years? Even if you don't agree, there is nothing we can do." Princess Dalai asked while watching Li Hong teasing Hai Dongqing on the deck.
"It's not that I underestimate you. With the strength of your Japanese country, if you give me more than 20 million taels of silver a year, I'm afraid even your father will eat dirt, let alone..."
Princess Dalai raised her pink fist and heard that he was once again amusing her father. When she was about to ask for justice, she heard the word He Kuo and had to put her fist down again. She wanted to test Li Hong's attitude towards Japan. I understood, so I asked out of curiosity: "What's more?"
"What's more, most places in your Japanese country are still in a barter situation. The currency circulation is only in a few areas centered in Kyoto, plus the support of wealthy businessmen. Otherwise, are you different from the primitive savages? "Li Hong turned his head and glanced at Princess Dalai who was stunned there, and said disdainfully.
"You spoke of things that happened more than a thousand years ago with such seriousness..."
"Oh, what I dreamed about a few days ago was just changing each other's positions, just like today's situation, that's what I want to say." A smile appeared at the corner of Li Hong's mouth, stroking Hai Dongqing's Said the head.
"Then how do you know we have money? Also, why did you agree to three years? You must have intentions. You have always been cunning..."
"More than 20 million taels of silver, that's not a small amount. If you give it to me all at once, what else can I do besides putting it into the treasury? Put it into the market all at once? It will only make the prices of Chang'an and Luoyang unstable. My business in Datang has brought some turmoil, so three years is enough for me to spend the money silently." Li Hong scratched his head and stood up holding the thin shoulders of Princess Dalai. Lalan said: "If you still want to continue watching the sunset, then you can continue watching. I fell asleep. I was really exhausted during this period. Attacking your small Japanese country actually caused such a huge damage to our warships." damaged."
Li Hong looked at Zhang Yi and Li Chunfeng standing in front of the sail that had been damaged by the strong wind and waves, helpless. It was obvious that the sail would be irreparable for a while, which made Li Chunfeng want to start his big voyage immediately after returning to Quanzhou. The plan had to be postponed for a few days.
"You are our sinner! We will never forget the pain you brought to our Japanese country. One day, I will make you pay the same price!" Princess Dalai also stood up and looked at the lazy back and hummed. road.
"Did you know? Because of your words, I will consider whether to destroy your country to avoid endless troubles! By the way, and also, I know your purpose of shamelessly wanting to go to the Tang Dynasty, isn't it just to steal? study… ."
"That's not cheating. I'm an upright envoy to the Tang Dynasty. I paid the tuition!" Princess Dalai became so angry that she wanted to kill someone when she thought of others' 10,000 taels and her 50,000 taels of tuition.
Clenching her fists tightly and looking at the Prince of the Tang Dynasty who turned to look at her lazily, the Princess of Dalai walked up to Li Hong. Her towering breasts were almost touching Li Hong's chest before she stopped.
He looked at Li Hong without any sign of weakness and said through gritted teeth: "I will definitely be able to think of a way to keep our Japanese country going and will never give you a chance to destroy us! If you don't believe me, just wait and see!"
"Okay, you have the guts! Then I will tell you that my goal in my lifetime is to remove the Japanese country from this world and make the Japanese country the land and territory of the Tang Dynasty! If you don't believe it, we will just wait and see!" Li Hong lowered his head. Looking at the eyes full of reluctance and determination, he said sternly as well.
The two warships still chose the southern route back to Datang. Although the waters of the South China Sea have always been famous for their harsh sea conditions, after the last voyage and the detailed records of Li Chunfeng, a caring person, including him and other students, under Li Hong's guidance , drawing the sea chart carefully, making this return trip seem much easier than when we came here.
There are many beautiful islands that no one cares about yet. Whenever he docks at an uninhabited island at night, Li Hong will plunge into the sea like a fish that has been out of the sea for a long time before the warship even docks.
Every time at this time, Princess Dalai would appear on the deck where Li Hong had just dived after Li Hong jumped into the sea. Then she looked at Li Hong who emerged from the water and struck, "You just keep practicing." "Your water quality is not as good as mine. Don't forget that our tribe has been living on the sea for generations. The sea is the same to us as on land."
"Ye Zi, don't talk too much. Do you dare to say that my water quality now is not as good as before?" Li Hong said while stepping on the water, exposing his strong upper body.
The original scars on the body, after being exposed to wind and sun during this period of time, and because the skin is too dark, are not as scary as before.
Princess Dalai has become accustomed to the name Li Hong changed her in the past few days, and even other people on the ship were bewitched by him. When calling themselves, they could only call themselves Miss Asami.
So when Princess Dalai heard Li Hong calling her a bastard, she was not as angry as before. She smiled contemptuously and said: "Your water skills will not improve because you are too stupid."
"Then come down and let's do some gesticulations!" Li Hong shouted in the water.
At this time, the battleship's speed was getting slower and slower because it was approaching the shore, so Li Hong could easily keep up with its speed in the water.
"Don't even think about it!" Princess Dalai's face blushed unconsciously, and she remembered the first time she was caught by Li Hong, and the shameless man offended her.
But no matter how much she hated Li Hong from the bottom of her heart, one thing she still admired was that this man, who was regarded as the prince, had been humbly asking for advice from her these past few days because his water quality was not as good as hers, without any of the condescension of the prince.
