After the Qin delegation entered Chang 'an, they were summoned by the Tang Emperor, Li Shimin.
Great Qin had brought more than 1,000 people with them, but only a few people could enter the Great Tang Imperial Palace. The only people who could enter were Ying Che, Meng Yi, and the officials of the Great Qin diplomatic mission.
Great Qin's Golden Fire Cavalrymen were placed in the Great Qin Embassy.
Ying Che, Meng Yi, and the others walked through the Xuanwu Gate and saw the magnificent palace of the Great Tang.
Among the countries, the Qin Kingdom was still dark and its palaces were solemn and majestic, while the Great Tang's palaces were gorgeous and had upturned eaves. They contained a rich cultural heritage, and this was where the Tang people were proud of.
Entering the palace, two rows of armored soldiers stood in front of him. They were wearing silver battle armor, and they shone coldly in the sunlight.
"Black Armored Army!" Meng Yi muttered to himself as he straightened his body.
Far away in a foreign country, as the Great Qin General, he bore the honor of being the Great Qin Cavalry.
"He is indeed a mighty master!"
Ying Che nodded and walked into Taiji Palace under the guidance of the Tang officials.
In an instant, countless gazes looked towards Ying Che and the other members of Great Qin's diplomatic mission. Curiosity, scrutiny, contempt, and arrogance flashed in their eyes.
The owners of these gazes were all the hundreds of officials in the court, the most powerful people in the Great Tang.
"Great Qin's diplomatic mission is here."
"The black-robed young man at the front of the diplomatic mission, is he the Great Qin's Ninth Young Master Ying Che?”
"This young master of the Great Qin Empire, who is ranked last on the Noble Ranking, looks so young, but I wonder what talent he has?”
"Talent? It was ridiculous. In terms of talent, everyone knew that the people of the Tang Dynasty were peerless. Even a child in Chang 'an City could speak eloquently, not to mention the four world-renowned talents, Wang Yang, Lu Luo.”
"The people of Great Qin are rude and unreasonable, and the people are vulgar. I think that Great Qin's young master is talented.”
“........”
A low laughter came from the court.
Facing the State of Qin, the officials of the Great Tang were filled with pride.
Even though Great Qin had a powerful army and was one of the strongest countries, its national strength was weak and its culture was stagnant. In their eyes, Great Qin was an uncivilized barbarian.
How could it be comparable to the Tang Empire of the upper kingdom of the Heavenly Dynasty?
The country was prosperous, the four seas were peaceful, the culture was prosperous, and countless small countries bowed their heads.
"Ying Che of the Great Qin Empire greets the Tang Emperor with the diplomatic mission of the Great Qin Empire!”Looking at Li Shi Min on the throne, Ying Che lightly bowed, neither servile nor overbearing.
A clear voice echoed in the palace, and the crowd's discussion gradually disappeared. Ying Che's face was as handsome as a piece of metal, and he looked calm. He was dressed in a black robe, and he looked like an unparalleled young master.
Li Shi Min looked at Ying Che with a complicated feeling.
In terms of appearance, bearing, and mannerisms, Ying Che was outstanding. Even by the strict standards of the Tang, he was a peerless model.
However, Ying Che was ranked last on the Noble List and seemed to have no talent.
Li Shiming was a little disappointed and unwilling to marry such a person to his most beloved daughter, Princess Chang Le.
However, the alliance between Qin and Tang was beneficial to both Great Qin and Great Tang, so this was not important.
"The alliance between the Qin and Tang is extremely beneficial to both the Great Tang and the Great Qin. I have written to the Qin Emperor many times, and I am willing to form an alliance with the Great Qin Empire and fight against the foreign races through marriage!”
Li Shimin said the official statement that he had prepared.
"The alliance between the Great Qin and the Great Tang is an eternal joy.
The Qin Emperor has specially sent our diplomatic corps to send gifts to the Great Tang to congratulate the two countries on establishing diplomatic relations…" After Ying Che finished speaking, Great Qin's envoy read out the list of gifts.
Li Shi Min nodded and pretended to be happy.
Even though Great Qin's gifts were heavy, they were not as important as his daughter, Li Lizhi.
Looking at Ying Che in Taiji Palace and thinking about how his beloved daughter was about to marry the last person on the Noble Ranking, Li Shiming felt a sense of panic.
"Young Master Qin and the diplomatic group have traveled thousands of miles to come. They are tired from the journey, so you can stay in the Qin embassy first.”
"In five days, We will hold a banquet at the Yonghe Palace to invite the Great Qin's young master and the diplomatic corps. At that time, the people of the Great Tang and the envoys of the various countries will witness the alliance and friendship between the Great Qin and the Great Tang.”
Li Shimin had already lost interest in Ying Che and ended the meeting as soon as possible.
At the same time.
When Ying Che and Li Shiming met.
The nobles of the Great Tang were already seething with excitement.
Bang!
A young master dressed in luxurious clothes slammed the table and stood up. He said angrily,
"Everyone, are you willing?"
"The most beloved princess of our Great Tang is actually going to marry a barbarian Qin. What kind of logic is this?”
"As you all know, Princess Chang Le is a peerless talent and the most beautiful woman in the Great Tang.”
"But that Great Qin's Ninth Young Master Ying Che is ranked last on the Noble Roll. It's ridiculous. How can such a person marry our Princess Changle?”
"The top three, top ten, and top twenty marquises of the Great Tang are everywhere.”
"I don't accept this result. Great Qin's Ying Che is not worthy of marrying Princess Chang Le.
I'm willing to go to the Great Qin's embassy to compete with him. If any of you want to compete with him and humiliate him, come with me to the Great Qin's embassy.”
The moment he said this, it immediately attracted the response of all the princes and nobles present.
The culture of the Great Tang was prosperous, and there were often literary and martial arts competitions. The winner could gain fame and attract the attention of nobles. Even if he wrote a good article, he could attract the attention of the emperor.
"Let's go, let's go. This is a great opportunity for us to become famous.”
"Great Qin is a barbarian, so how can he understand the culture of our Great Tang? I'm willing to go with him and kill the arrogance of that Great Qin barbarian. I'll let the people of the Great Tang understand how unbearable Ying Che is.”
"I'll go with you, not to become famous, but to make Barbarian Qin retreat and give up on the marriage.”
Countless nobles responded and ran to the Great Qin Embassy to clamor.
Some of them even specially informed Princess Li Lizhi of Changle to come over.
At this time, Ying Che had just returned from meeting Li Shiming, and he bumped into the group of nobles of the Great Tang.
