Chapter 515 Suga Ezo
Fujiwara-kyo, the capital of Fuso.
Su Wo Ezo lay on the soft bed, watching a group of dancers dancing, very comfortable.
It took a few years since Emperor Shumei was pushed to the throne, and Soga Ezo was finally in power, all unparalleled.
Now even Emperor Shu Ming has to act according to his face.
Just when Suga Ezo was full of ambition, a samurai walked in, came to Suga Ezo, and said: "My lord, the people who went to Tang Dynasty have returned."
This person is Eiichi Nakano, Soga Ezo's confidant, who is not only responsible for protecting Soga Ezo, but also specially handles some private matters for Soga Ezo.
Su Wo was stunned for a moment, and asked in confusion, "Why didn't they report it in advance when they came back?"
"My lord, all the envoys we sent to the Tang Dynasty were killed, and only one managed to escape." Eiichi Nakano said.
Su Wo Ezo's complexion changed, and he shouted in a sinister tone: "Get out, get out."
The dancer gave a flustered salute, and retreated.
"Tell me, what's going on." Su Wo Ezo said coldly.
The envoy to the Tang Dynasty was apparently arranged by the emperor, but in fact he advocated it.
Emperor Shu Ming is just a puppet now, how can he send Tang envoys to Datang.
"My lord, according to those who fled back, after they arrived in Datang, they were framed by the dignitaries of Datang, and had conflicts with the family of Datang. When they returned, they encountered many assassins as soon as they boarded the ship. They fought desperately. , but because there were too many people on the other side and heavy casualties, only a few people escaped, and only one person has come back so far." Eiichi Nakano said.
Su Wo's face darkened, and he asked, "Does Datang agree with Fusang to continue sending Tang envoys to study in Datang?"
He didn't care much about the life and death of those messengers.
What he cares about is whether he can continue to send Tang envoys to Datang to learn the technology of Datang.
As long as the goal can be achieved, those people will die when they die.
"Back to my lord, Datang did not agree." Nakano Hideichi said.
Su Wo Ezo's face was gloomy, Fusang's technology was very backward, and Datang had advanced technology, which he had always coveted.
As long as those technologies can be mastered, Fuso will be able to develop at a high speed, and even go out from this island to occupy more fertile places.
"Send people to Datang, our envoy died in Datang, and Datang must give an explanation." Suga Ezo said.
"My lord, the envoy of our country was assassinated after boarding the ship. If Datang uses this as an excuse, it may not be of much use." Hideichi Nakano said hesitantly.
Su Wo Eizi sneered and said, "My Fusang respects Datang because I want to learn Datang's technology. Datang is powerful, but they have a fatal weakness. Without a navy, Datang can't help Fusang. The envoys go, if Datang disagrees, let Datang see how powerful I am Fusang."
"Yes." Nakano Hideichi hurried down to make arrangements.

Lin Xuan and his party rested overnight in Yuhang. Early the next morning, after breakfast, they packed up their things and prepared to leave for Hangzhou.
Their horses were brought along with the boat. Lin Xuan thought that Lu Yuxuan had no horses and could get rid of her.
Unexpectedly, when they set off, Lu Yuxuan, master and servant, got a horse from someone who didn't know where, and they still followed behind him.
Lin Xuan shook his head and said nothing.
Yuhang was more than [-] miles away from Hangzhou, so I hurried on the road early in the morning, ate some dry food on the way, continued on the road, and finally arrived in Hangzhou before dark.
Song Fan Chengda's "Wu Jun Zhi": "The proverb says: 'Heaven in heaven, Suzhou and Hangzhou on the ground.'" It means that the heaven in the sky is the most beautiful, and the Suzhou and Hangzhou in the world are the most beautiful. It describes the beauty, prosperity and prosperity of Suzhou and Hangzhou. .
Although Chang'an is the largest and most prosperous city in the Tang Dynasty, a large part of it is the addition of the capital of the Tang Dynasty.
And the land in the south of the Yangtze River has been a land of fish and rice since ancient times, and it is extremely rich. This is the prosperity in the background.
"Master Hou, if two months pass, Hangzhou will be even more prosperous and beautiful than it is now." Xi Junmai said.
"I can't wait this time. I will definitely come and see it when I have time. Then Junmai must do his best to be a landlord." Lin Xuan said with a smile.
"must."
A group of people came to the largest inn in Hangzhou and booked all the remaining rooms. There were still more than 100 people who could not be accommodated. Lin Xuan asked them to live in a nearby inn.
After being settled, Lin Xuan asked Qiu Fu to prepare the boat, and then prepared to take Guo Caiyue for a stroll.
"Junmai, is your home in Hangzhou City?" Lin Xuan asked.
"Go back to Lord Hou, that's right."
"Then you don't have to follow me anymore, go home and pick up your wife and children. This time you're in Chang'an, you won't be able to come back in a short time." Lin Xuan said.
Xi Junmai hurriedly said: "Master Hou, brother Qiu is going to prepare the ship, you must always have someone to protect you. How can your subordinates handle private affairs at this time."
"Okay, I have so many people protecting me, how can I send you one? This is an order, and I must go now." Lin Xuan said.
"Yes." Xi Junmai said.
"and many more."
Lin Xuan looked at Guo Caiyue and said, "Choose one of the jewelry I bought for you that day. I haven't returned for a long time, so I always have to bring a gift back."
"Master Hou, this subordinate cannot ask for it." Xi Junmai said hastily.
He was there when he bought those jewelry. A dozen pieces of jewelry cost nine thousand guan, and the cheapest one cost several hundred guan.
"You can take it here."
Guo Caiyue nodded, and went back to her room to get the jewelry.
Not long after, Guo Caiyue handed a box to Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan took the box, handed it over, and said, "Go back and pick up people."
Xi Junmai took the box and said gratefully, "Thank you, Lord Hou."
Guo Caiyue and Lin Xuan were walking on the street and asked curiously, "Master, is there anything special about Commander Xi?"
"Why do you ask such a question?" Lin Xuan laughed.
"Although Lord Hou is usually generous to others, he is too generous to the commander-in-chief," Guo Caiyue said.
Although she didn't know how to employ people, Xi Jun bought a new vote not long ago. Although he helped Qiu Fu, Lin Xuan also appointed him as the deputy commander of the personal army.
Now he cares about Xi Junmai's family and gives generous gifts.
"Because he is different, you will know in the future." Lin Xuan laughed.
He treats Xi Junmai so well, except because Xi Junmai is a talent.
Another reason is that the last time he chatted with Xi Junmai, he almost felt that Xi Junmai was a little unnatural when he talked about his home.
He reckoned that the brothers were at odds, and wanted to help him.
Hangzhou is not like Chang'an, there is a curfew at night, the lights are dim, and it is very lively.
Lin Xuan took Guo Caiyue to play until midnight before returning to the inn.
"Master Hou, you are back."
When Xi Junmai saw Lin Xuan coming back, he hurried up to greet him, followed by a woman and a child about three or four years old.
The woman was about 25 or six years old, although she was not considered pretty, she had a gentle appearance, and she followed behind Xi Junmai cautiously.
"Why don't you rest?"
"Master Hou, Zhuo Jing wants to thank Lord Hou for his reward." Xi Junmai said.
"Minister Xi Jiang has met Lord Hou, thank you Lord Hou for your generous reward."
Lin Xuan waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite, it's getting late, let's go to rest first."
