The Ambassador's Car Team, the True Strength of Elite Diplomats
The next morning.
Cheng Yaojin led an honor guard and waited outside the Dragon Country's embassy.
I heard that the ambassador of the Dragon Country is going to officially take up his duties.
The entire Great Tang Imperial Court was excited.
This also meant that the things that had been written on the paper were finally going to be settled!
In truth, the task of welcoming the diplomatic mission should have belonged to the Chamberlain of Dependencies.
Cheng Yaojin was the founder of the country, a dignified Duke.
However, this fellow was also thick-skinned. He relied on the fact that he had fought alongside Su Muyang to take on this task.
At this moment, he was waiting outside the embassy with his men. He was already a little anxious.
At this moment, the doors of the embassy suddenly opened.
A convoy slowly drove out of the embassy.
It was a black sedan with a red flag.
On the flagpole of the car, a red flag was fluttering in the wind.
This scene shocked Cheng Yaojin.
He had seen the trailer earlier and knew that it was a car.
However, when such a convoy really appeared in front of him, he was still extremely shocked.
Fortunately, he had ridden a chariot before, so his ability to accept it was slightly stronger.
After being stunned for a while, he quickly went up to greet her.
The convoy slowly stopped.
The window of the backseat of the car rolled down, revealing Su Muyang's face.
"General Cheng, I didn't expect you to come personally to welcome me.”
Cheng Yaojin's voice couldn't help but weaken.
"I haven't seen Ambassador Su for a long time. I miss him very much.”
Su Muyang did not expose him and just smiled.
"In that case, I'll have to trouble General Cheng to lead the way.”
Cheng Yaojin looked at the convoy with envy.
Only then did he get back on his horse and shout loudly.
"Let's go!"
Unfortunately, there was no response.
Upon closer inspection, he immediately felt his face lose its luster.
The guards of honor stared at the carriages in shock.
Cheng Yaojin was so angry that he kicked him.
"Little brats, cheer up!”
.......................................
Chang 'an was bustling with activity.
Whether it was the appearance of the Immortal Palace or the establishment of diplomatic relations with the Dragon Country.
To ordinary people, it didn't seem to matter much.
Life should still be lived.
At this moment, the sound of horse hooves came from the side of the street.
Someone shouted.
"Move aside! Hurry up and make way!"
Everyone on the street looked in the direction of the voice.
Two rows of horses were seen galloping from the street.
The knights on their horses ran as they commanded the people to make way for them.
As the people of Chang 'an, they were no strangers to this scene.
There was a big shot out on a tour and the streets were going to be cleaned!
The commoners hurriedly made way for him.
Those small merchants and hawkers hurriedly put away their stalls and hid on both sides of the street.
There were also many people who put their hands on the awning and looked into the distance carefully.
What kind of big shot was it this time?
In the distance, a guard of honor led the way.
Behind the honor guard
" What's that?!"
Someone suddenly shouted.
Behind the guard of honor was a vehicle that he had never seen before.
The carriages were completely black and seemed to be made of pure iron.
It was exceptionally solemn.
Most importantly, the carriage didn't have a horse?
For a moment, the entire street was in an uproar.
Everyone was discussing animatedly.
"What's that? Was it a carriage? But how could he walk on his own without a horse?”
"It's General Cheng Yaojin! How could the High Duke personally lead the way? Who is this big shot?"
"Aiya! I suddenly remembered! Wasn't there a similar thing running on the streets a few days ago?”
"Really? I've only heard of it before and thought it was just a rumor!”
"Don't you know that many places in Chang 'an have been repairing roads these days? It was said that the car from last time was crushed.”
"Really? Then how did such a heavy car run?”
"I'm guessing the horse must be hiding inside!”
"Don't talk nonsense. That carriage is so low. How can a horse hide in it?”
After a long discussion, someone finally revealed the answer.
"You guys don't know about this, right?"
"A few days ago, His Majesty announced to the world that the Great Tang and the Dragon Kingdom had officially established diplomatic relations.”
"The people in these cars are from the Dragon Country!”
"Really?" His words immediately attracted the attention of many people.
That person had a smug look on his face.
"My seventh uncle's neighbor's niece is married to the gatekeeper of State Duke Lu's second aunt's house.”
"I heard from him that a few days ago, the Turkic soldiers came to the city.”
"At the critical moment, it was the Dragon Country's special envoy from the Immortal World who personally took action.”
"He summoned a divine beast from the Immortal Realm and devoured the eight hundred thousand Turkic soldiers.”
"Otherwise, Chang 'an would have been conquered by the Turks.”
"These carriages are the things that the special envoy of the Immortal Dynasty brought from the Immortal World."
All of a sudden, all kinds of rumors were flying on the streets.
..............................
There was already a group of people anxiously waiting at the entrance of the Chamberlain of Dependencies.
The leader was the Minister of Rites, Tang Jian.
Actually, according to normal etiquette, Tang Jian should be waiting inside.
However, the problem was that in the face of the powerful Dragon Country, who dared to be disrespectful at all?
"He's here!"
Tang Jian was overjoyed when he saw the guards of honor approaching.
Seeing the convoy, he was no better than Cheng Yaojin.
The convoy slowly stopped.
Someone got out of every car.
They formed a team of more than ten people.
Tang Jian hurriedly tidied up his clothes and went up to greet him.
Su Muyang laughed.
"Lord Tang, long time no see."
Tang Jian looked at him and felt a little strange.
It seemed that after not seeing him for a few days, this High Ambassador Su's temperament seemed to have improved a lot.
However, he did not dare to be careless and hurriedly cupped his hands.
"Greetings, Ambassador Su!"
"May I know who is your ambassador to Tang?”
Su Muyang said as he pointed.
"This is our Dragon Country's ambassador to the Tang Dynasty, Ambassador Zhang Tianhua.”
"He's here to pay a visit to Lord Tang.”
"It's for the purpose of handing over the copy of the credentials in person and arranging to meet His Majesty the Emperor with Lord Tang.”
Tang Jian hurriedly cupped his hands at Zhang Tianhua and said sincerely.
"So it's Ambassador Zhang. Please forgive my poor eyesight.”
Zhang Tianhua had a standard diplomatic smile on his face.
It didn't make people feel that it was an outsider, but it didn't lose its solemnity.
It gave people a feeling of being bathed in the spring breeze.
He cupped his hands and smiled.
"Greetings, Lord Tang!"
"I've long heard that Lord Tang has been following His Majesty since Emperor Gaozu was still in Taiyuan.”
"He's the emperor's right-hand man, an important minister.”
"Seeing you today, you really live up to your reputation.”
Tang Jian immediately felt great.
This ambassador was indeed discerning!
After all, the Great Tang Imperial Court was filled with talents.
Although Tang Jian was talented, he was not too outstanding.
However, the thing he was most proud of was that he had followed Li Shi Min since a long time ago.
As early as the end of the Sui Dynasty, before the world was in chaos.
Tang Jian saw that the political situation was getting chaotic and there was a sign of chaos in the world, so he secretly persuaded Li Shimin to set up a plan.
He had been following Li Shiming loyally.
Even Li Yuan had tried to recruit him, but he had rejected him.
This was also the proudest thing in his life.
Now that he was mentioned in person, he was even more proud.
His good impression of Zhang Tianhua increased by quite a bit.
Fortunately, he still remembered his duty and quickly said politely.
"Ambassador Zhang is too polite."
"It's all in the past. It's not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning!”
"His Majesty and the other lords have been waiting in Taiji Palace for a long time.”
"Why don't we go directly to Taiji Palace to meet the emperor?”
What the f * ck? The Great Tang was so enthusiastic?
Zhang Tianhua was also slightly startled.
One had to know that on Earth, there was a special process for these etiquette.
When a new ambassador arrived, the first thing he did was to submit a copy of his credentials to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the host country would discuss the time with the country's leaders, and then the ambassador would submit the original official credentials.
Although this time was not explicitly stated, it basically took a few days.
After all, the leader of a country was very busy and not someone you could meet whenever you wanted.
Usually, they would gather a few ambassadors and accept the original credentials together.
But in the Great Tang, they had not even submitted the instance dungeon, yet they wanted to meet Li Shiming directly?
..............................
However, as an elite diplomat, Zhang Tianhua's ability to adapt was naturally extremely strong.
He only smiled and praised.
"I've heard that your emperor is skilled in both civil and martial arts, and is known as the God of War in the army.”
"As expected, he's decisive and swift.”
"In that case, let's simplify the process.”
"Hand over the copy of the credentials here."
As he spoke, he waved his hand behind him. A staff member brought over a copy of the credentials.
Tang Jian did not dare to be careless and opened it to take a closer look.
It was all standard diplomatic language, so it was naturally not a big deal.
He turned around and handed the copy of the credentials to his subordinates, instructing them to keep it carefully.
He smiled.
"In that case, please follow me to Taiji Palace.”
Zhang Tianhua smiled and continued.
"Lord Tang, I have another request.”
"I've just arrived in the Great Tang, so I don't know much about the etiquette of the Great Tang.”
"If I were to pay my respects to His Majesty in a hurry, I'm afraid it would be rude.”
"Why don't I invite Lord Tang to ride in the same carriage as me and give me some pointers?”
"Really?"
Tang Jian's eyes instantly lit up, and he was about to drool.
This row of carriages had long made him envious.
He didn't expect to be lucky enough to ride it?
Ambassador Zhang was really a good person!
Su Muyang watched from the side and couldn't help but praise Zhang Tianhua in his heart.
Ambassador Zhang was indeed an elite diplomat.
She was really a role model for him to learn from.
He only said a few nice words and invited her to sit in the same car.
Just because of this, the Minister of Rites treated him as a good person?
Su Muyang did not forget.
In Minister Yang's office, how was Ambassador Zhang prepared to deal with Tang Chao?
