Empress Xiao's Xinhonglu
Guest House was built in Yanshou Square beside Chang 'an West Market.
There were many Hu nearby.
Most of the Hu merchants lived near Xi City.
In a big room in Honglu Guest House, the leaders of the envoys from the Western Regions were gathered together.
"The Great Tang is truly looking down on our Wusun Kingdom. This crystal cup is the national treasure of our Wusun Kingdom. Even our King was unwilling to use it and offered it to the Great Tang Imperial Family, but they did not cherish it at all…
They even deliberately shattered the crystal cup and returned it!”
The Wusun Nation's emissary was furious, his face ashen.
What he had encountered now was completely beyond his imagination.
The crystal cup was returned. The moment he touched it, it shattered.
To him, this was blatant contempt and contempt.
The leaders of the other tribes also frowned, thinking that the Great Tang had gone too far.
The officials of the Great Tang had only said that they did not know why this had happened, not even giving a proper explanation.
"The Great Tang has to give us an explanation.”The chief of the Chuoqiang tribe said in a deep voice.
"That's right. They have to give us a reasonable explanation. Otherwise, our West Night Tribe won't dare to surrender.”The leader of the West Night Tribe said coldly.
"Is this a conspiracy of the Turks?" the leader of the chechen empire asked hesitantly. The Great Tang's General Qin has been welcoming us for thirty miles, and the Minister of Rites has personally come to the city gates to welcome us. He shouldn't humiliate us like this
…"”The Great Liang's instigator muttered,"If the Great Tang really wanted to neglect us, there was no need to send people out of the city to welcome us
…"”The envoy of the Chuoqiang tribe sneered.
"This…
""It really is like that. If it really is a scheme of the Turks, then the Turks are simply too rampant in the Great Tang.”
"Let's wait a little longer. The Great Tang will definitely give us an explanation.”
"..."
The leaders discussed and discussed, but they couldn't come up with any clues.
The main thing was that things had happened too suddenly.
The Great Tang hadn't reacted in time, and neither had they.
Not long after, the Bureau of Rites sent people to invite the group of envoys to a bonfire banquet in the evening. They said that the Great Tang would explain the shattering of the crystal cup at the banquet.
The masterminds looked at each other.
"Bonfire Banquet? This was specially prepared for us, right?”
The Cheshi Nation's envoy hesitated.
"It should be. As far as I know, the Tang Empire doesn't usually hold bonfire parties, especially in Chang 'an…" the leader of the Gumo Tribe said.
The Wusun emissary frowned and said coldly,""Let's go and see how the Great Tang intends to explain this matter.
Hmph, if there isn't a reasonable explanation, my Wusun Kingdom will not let this matter rest!”
"The Chuoqiang tribe is willing to advance and retreat together with the Wusun Kingdom.”The leader of the Chuoqiang tribe sneered.
"Since we came together, we naturally have to advance and retreat together. Our Great Liang Kingdom is also willing to advance and retreat together with the Wusun Kingdom.”The Great Liang's envoy slowly said.
"…"
Then, the tribal leaders all expressed their willingness to advance and retreat with the Wusun Kingdom.
As for his true thoughts, he didn't know.
After the Cheshi Kingdom's envoy returned to his residence, he immediately informed Princess Gail about the bonfire banquet. Bakado.
"I specifically asked around. This bonfire banquet was prepared by the Great Tang's top scholar.”The Cheshi Nation's envoy smiled."If I'm not mistaken, this scholar should be the person the princess is looking for.”
"Top scholar…" Gail. "It's worth learning from the imperial examination system of the Great Tang."”
"There are too many things that we can learn from the Great Tang, but this time…the Wusun Kingdom won't be so easy to deal with.”The Cheshi Nation's envoy said worriedly.
"This is obviously a scheme of the Turks. The Great Tang will definitely have a way to resolve it.”Gail. Bagado did not mind.
"Oh, the officials of the Great Tang's Bureau of Rites said that this matter would be resolved at the bonfire banquet…Perhaps it was this scholar who made the move.”The Cheshi envoy smiled.
Gail. Bakadori's eyes flashed with anticipation as she said softly,""Then let's wait and see."
"…"
In an inn near the Gu Family Antique Shop.
The mastermind behind the theft of the crystal cup…The young man in embroidered clothes stood in front of the window and looked at the people coming and going on the street. He was in an extremely happy mood.
The crystal cup shattered in front of Wu Sunguo's instigation, causing the Tang Empire to lose all face. The relationship between the tribes of the Western Regions and the Tang Empire instantly deteriorated
…”
The young man in embroidered clothes smiled.
He was extremely pleased with himself.
All of this was his doing.
Their aim was to destroy this surrender request.
The result was obvious. He had succeeded.
He had successfully destroyed this alliance.
Dong ~!
Dong ~!
Two knocks sounded on the door.
"Enter." The young man in embroidered clothes said.
The scholarly middle-aged man walked in.
"How's the situation? I guess the Great Tang still hasn't given any explanation, right?”The young man in embroidered clothes smiled faintly, and the smugness on his face could not be suppressed.
"The Great Tang…gave us an explanation. All the explanations will be given at the bonfire banquet this evening.”the middle-aged man said hesitantly.
"Bonfire Banquet? Gu Hao?" The young man in embroidered clothes raised his eyebrows.
"It should be him." The middle-aged man nodded.
"Interesting."
The young man in embroidered clothes smiled and pondered for a moment before saying,"Make the arrangements. I want to attend this bonfire banquet.”
"This... this banquet is very strict. If you want to attend..." The scholarly middle-aged man was a little embarrassed.
If the crystal cup appeared in Honglu Guest House, Li Shiming would definitely investigate it.
At this time, it was best to stay in the inn and wait for the limelight to pass before moving out.
"There is a letter from Grandmother under my pillow. Take it and give it to Duke of Song Xiao Yu. Tell him…I want to attend tonight's bonfire banquet.”
The young man in embroidered clothes said indifferently,
"Empress Xiao's letter is a decree."
The scholarly middle-aged man's heart skipped a beat.
“………”
