As far as Wu Liang knows, Himiko is a very mysterious female ruler in ancient Japan.

"Three Kingdoms" records that Himihu was good at confusing the people with things about ghosts and gods. She never got married in her life. She only had her younger brother to assist in government affairs. Moreover, since Himihu became king, no outsider has ever been able to see her face. There are only a thousand ladies and one person who delivers food.

men entering and leaving the palace.

Moreover, the record also specifically mentions that the Yamatai Kingdom has actually been a male-dominated regime before, which means that all kings in the past were men.

It's just that after decades of wars, the country was devastated and the people were in dire straits. At this time, Himihu suddenly appeared and was quickly crowned queen, officially beginning her rule...

Just when Wu Liang was thinking this.

"I wonder where the emperor's envoy heard this statement?"

Qilitong had already withdrew his gaze from the young girl, then bowed and asked.

"this……"

Wu Liang was thinking about how to explain this problem.

However, Cao Chun took the conversation in a very appropriate manner and said to him seriously: "It seems that I need to introduce you to this envoy of the emperor. He is actually the most extraordinary stranger in our country. He does not have to travel thousands of miles. He only needs to

You can know the affairs of the world by looking at the stars at night and making calculations with your fingers. Therefore, you'd better tell the truth about what he said to you and what questions he asked. Otherwise, don't blame the emperor's envoys for doubting your sincerity."

Otherwise, Cao Chun could become the leader of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and stay close to Boss Cao to work for a long time.

This is discernment, when to speak, when not to speak, or what kind of words to say, this guy has mastered the essence.

Wu Liang immediately gave Cao Chun a thumbs up in his heart.

"Sorry."

Upon hearing this, Qili Tong quickly apologized, avoided Wu Liang's gaze with some taboos, and answered directly, "To be honest with the emperor's envoys, I am not called the Queen of Yamatai Kingdom, but called Yu. In addition, the word "Bimi" is also used.

It is not the queen's surname. In the language of our country, Bimi is actually the honorific title of the king. In our country, the king is no longer a mortal, so we no longer use mortal surnames."

"Um."

Wu Liang nodded and easily accepted Qilitong's statement.

Because in the Japanese Kingdom of later generations, the royal family also had no surnames, and the same saying was used. It seems that this custom has been in use since this time.

There is also another historical detail known to Wu Liang that can also corroborate Qilitong's statement from the side.

Because "Three Kingdoms" also records relevant information about the king of the Gonu Kingdom who was opposed to the Yamatai Kingdom. The king of the Gonu Kingdom was a male, so his name was recorded as "Bimi Gonghu".

There is only one word difference between this name and "Bhimihu".

So much so that Wu Liang once thought that the Japanese civil strife at this time was also a civil war between various princes. Such things often happened in the Chinese dynasties in history. There were many examples in the Han Dynasty alone, and there were always a lot of princes named Liu.

They got into a fight for various reasons, but in fact they were all relatives who were fighting.

In addition, Wu Liang has already begun to consider another issue.

According to historical records: "Around 188 AD, civil strife began to occur in the Japanese country. After that, all the vassal states jointly elected the Queen of Yamatai Kingdom, Hemihu, as their queen, and the Japanese country was divided into the northern forces headed by Yamatai Kingdom, and the northern forces headed by Gonu Kingdom.

The southern forces have temporarily settled down."

Qilitong's statement is inconsistent with the records in the history books of the Celestial Dynasty.

Now the queen of Yamatai Kingdom is called "Bimiyu", not "Bimihu". This is an issue worth investigating.

Could it be that the Han Dynasty’s limited understanding of the Japanese kingdom led to the omission of one of the queens when writing history books?

Or for some unknown reason, did you deliberately ignore this queen named "Beimiyu"?

Or...

If "Hemihu" replaces "Hemiyu" as the new queen in a short period of time, similar results may occur, because successive rulers have launched coups or used some not-so-good methods in order to make their rule more legitimate.

After seizing power, they usually use some means to downplay or discredit the previous ruler as much as possible, thereby making their own rule appear more legitimate.

Li Shimin did such a thing, and it was regarded as an important turning point for the Chinese historians to lose their integrity.

But the problem is.

call……

Wu Liang once again looked at the young woman hiding behind Qilitong.

She may be the mysterious Queen Himiko, or she may not be. It is just a coincidence in her name. There is no conclusion yet.

But one thing is for sure.

If the question Wu Liang asked just now reaches the ears of the current queen "Bimi" through Qilitong's mouth, coupled with Cao Chun's grand introduction to Wu Liang above...

Wu Liang has reason to speculate that this young woman named "Hu", as well as other women named "Hu" in Yamatai Kingdom, are very likely to be liquidated. After all, both the rulers and the common people in this era are very superstitious, not to mention

The Japanese country was still more backward and superstitious than the Chinese Empire. Just such a rumor was enough to kill many people.

And just now Qilitong had a strange look in his eyes when he looked at that girl.

That already explains the problem very well.

With this in mind, Wu Liang immediately said to Qilitong with a smile: "Doctor Qilitong, you have passed my test. Of course I know that the queen of Yamatai Kingdom is called 'Beimiyu'. I just deliberately said it wrong, but it's just..."

I'm just misleading you. If you don't correct me, then you will be imprisoned as a spy... I hope Dr. Qilitong won't mind it. You have known it all the way here. Now I, a big man, am also in the middle of a war, so I can't.

Don't be wary of those with ulterior motives approaching the Emperor."

"I see."

Only then did Qilitong look away from the girl with his strange eyes, and then a relieved smile appeared on his face. He bowed and said to Wu Liang, "The emperor's envoy's move is also a matter of loyalty to the emperor. How dare you?

Mind you."

"Okay, now that your identity has been confirmed, prepare to follow me to meet the emperor later."

Wu Liang nodded and said.

He believed that Qili Tong traveled thousands of miles to pay tribute. It was definitely not just a simple tribute, but he must also have made requests to the big man under the Queen's order.

Naturally, this request must be explained to the Emperor of Han in person to be in line with etiquette.

Wu Liang didn't bother to ask. Anyway, it was just a request for generous poverty alleviation or political assistance from the Han Dynasty. Historically, they had also requested these things.

As for the current Emperor Xian Liu Xie, he himself has to look at Boss Cao's face, and there is no way to satisfy him.

As for whether Boss Cao is willing to agree to these requests.

It's hard to say. After all, although Boss Cao is now quite powerful, he still faces many challenges that are beyond his current capabilities. Most likely, he does not have the energy and financial resources to support someone who is far overseas, has no impact on the situation in China, and is not worthwhile at all.

A small country that implements distant diplomacy and close attack.

"only."

Qilitong bowed and bowed.

The young girl named "Hu" behind him also bowed down.

"That's right, uncle."

Wu Liang turned back to look at Cao Chun.

"..."

Cao Chun was stunned for a few seconds before finally reacting, pointing at himself and asking, "Are you calling me?"

Even though this guy has been teasing Wu Liang about his seniority recently, he still regards Wu Liang as a peer in his heart, so Wu Liang suddenly called him that, which made him uncomfortable.

"Who else could it be?"

Wu Liang rolled his eyes.

"Alas! Alas! Alas! My good nephew!"

Cao Chun suddenly beamed with joy and frantically took advantage of Wu Liang. He agreed several times before asking, "What's the matter?"

With Wu Liang's face, he naturally didn't care about suffering this loss at all, and then said sternly: "It is not appropriate for them to meet the emperor in this image. I ordered someone to get them some hot water to take a bath before sending it to them."

Put on a pair of clothes, we are a great country and we still need to have this magnanimity. Even in the midst of war, we are still much stronger than other countries."

"I'll teach people how to do it."

Cao Chun agreed wholeheartedly.

"Then I will leave this place to my uncle, and I will go next door to report this matter to the emperor."

Wu Liang nodded and walked out to the next door.

…

At this time, the security of the temporary palace was obviously much tighter than usual.

After this incident, it was impossible for Boss Cao not to be wary of Emperor Xian, and Emperor Xian had to restrain himself. If Boss Cao really sent him back to Luoyang out of "chill", his good days would definitely come to an end.

But this had no impact on Wu Liang.

Because Cao Ang is now the commander of Yulin's guards, Cao Ang will naturally not interfere with Wu Liang's access, not to mention that he already knows what Wu Liang is here to do.

In this way, it was smooth all the way to Emperor Xian's bedroom.

Although the door was open, Wu Liang still informed the eunuch at the door to enter, and only went in after receiving Emperor Xian's permission.

At this time, Emperor Xian Liu Xie was already sitting on the couch, but it could be seen from the slightly messy bedding and hair bun on the couch that he should have been resting just now.
