Chapter 48: The first encounter with the Fuso people

After conquering Yang Wanchun, Li Shimin began to look for candidates to guard Liaodong.

Li Yuanai listened to the passionate chat between Li Shimin and Cen Wenben, and couldn't get in touch with her, so she took her back first.

Li Shimin smiled discontently and signaled him to leave.

It was getting late, and Li Yuanai found Changsun Wuji who was busy and dizzy, asked Ming to find the residence he had arranged for him, and rested all night.

The next day, Li Yuan Ai stayed in the mansion with a boring guard and planned to visit Pyongyang City to reflect the exotic style.

After all, it can still be called a foreign land. After a few years or more, everyone will learn Chinese and speak Confucius and Mencius, and they will not feel anything.

Walking on the street, the streets were deserted. Although the Tang army arranged notices in every corner, and asked the surrendered ministers of Goguryeo to shout next to the notice, in their language, saying that the Tang Dynasty was a benevolent and righteous army, and would carry out benevolent policies in the city to appease the hearts of the people.

However, it was obviously not effective. At this stage, the people of Goguryeo could not accept the rule of the Tang Dynasty so quickly.

After all, the two countries have been hostile for many years and their hatred is deeply rooted.

Only time can truly resolve hatred.

As long as the people arranged by the court impose benevolent policies and no one is bewitching the trouble, the people will soon accept their rule for life.

Li Yuanai was thinking about it and wandered around, but there was no point in sight. He asked the guards to find the surrendered officials of Goguryeo who promoted the benevolent government of the Tang Dynasty on the streets. He asked the place of the market to see if there were any novel local specialties.

The market is located in the west of Pyongyang City, which seems to be the imitation of the Western City of the Sui and Tang Dynasties. It also has a archway hanging high, with the Chinese characters "Wei City" written on it.

The market is much bigger than what Li Yuanai thought. After all, it is the economic center of Haidong. Merchants from the Silla, Baekje, Fusang, Fuyu and Mushi tribes often come here to trade internationally, and there are more or less cards.

The market was specially opened by the imperial court, and the people could ignore it, but merchants had to cooperate forcibly.

Otherwise, it will cause a shortage of materials and cause unnecessary panic.

The businessmen in Goguryeo were different from those in the Tang Dynasty.

The Tang Dynasty was controlled by the government. Even if the materials were shortage and disasters came, prices were not allowed to be raised and money were made.

There is no such system in Goguryeo. Merchants are just looking for money and are a bad guy.

Now in wartime, prices are rising.

Changsun Wuji personally inquired about this matter. In one night, he obeyed the Goguryeo vendors' management, re-planned prices, and suppressed prices.

This move was highly praised by the people of the old Goguryeo.

Although national hatred and family hatred will not be easily eliminated, it is also a good start.

Li Yuanai also had to accept that Changsun Wuji was indeed a good figure who was both civil and military, and was the best in the world.

Thinking that Li Zhi was destined to be incompatible with this boss, Li Yuanai had a headache.

"Ali Aduo..."

Li Yuanai walked away and suddenly heard familiar Japanese pronunciations.

Although I don’t like the neighbor who comes from behind, I’m just talking about it, their animation is really great.

There are many fantastic works, but what impressed Li Yuanai the most was "Detective Conan". She liked it since she was a child and kept following it. Although the filming was not very good later, she still followed it out of the habit she developed. She watched more than a thousand episodes, and it would scare people to tell her.

You can still understand a few simple sentences of daily Japanese.

Li Yuanai looked into the store and saw that it was a cloth shop. A short middle-aged man in green was discussing business with the shopkeeper in skillful Chinese language. But from time to time, he couldn't help but recite the previous Fusang language with the same catchphrase.

At this moment, Japan had not established diplomatic relations with the Tang Dynasty, so Li Yuanai had never seen the Fusang envoy in the temple. This was the first time he heard the familiar tone when he came to this era. He suddenly became interested and said in his heart: "I wonder what is going on in the little Japanese now?"

Know yourself and your enemy, you will be defeated in a hundred battles!

Li Yuanai said to the soldiers beside him: "Go and ask, is the other party a Fusang native? I found out his identity and I suspect that he was doing it in detail."

When the soldier heard that it might be a meticulous work, he looked serious and generous, and pressed the middle-aged man in green on the counter.

The middle-aged man in green struggled in horror.

The shopkeeper looked at the outside easily, and didn't dare to say a word, and didn't move for a moment.

The soldier shouted, "Who are you and what are you doing?"

The middle-aged man in green jumped in the air with his feet and said hurriedly: "I'm down high and Xiang Xuanli, Fusang, I'm just a passerby. I have something to do with it, which can prove it."

It was Li Yuanai's turn to be surprised. The other party spoke fluent Chinese without knowing that he even got the Tang Dynasty's house. This is not simple...

"Bring him!"

Li Yuanai shouted.

The soldier escorted Gao Xiangxuanli to the nearest place.

Gao Xiangxuanli hurriedly took the place from his arms and respectfully handed it to Li Yuanai.

The Tang Dynasty's affairs were very strict, not only indicating the identity of the holder, but also indicating the purpose of where the holder went.

Li Yuanai had seen the office and wrote: "Gao Xiangxuanli, a native of Fusang, was sent to Chang'an to study in the fourth year of Daye. In the 19th year of Zhenguan, he applied to return to China and accepted it. From Chang'an to Luoyang, he took a boat east to Dengzhou, crossed the mouth of the Bohai Bay and landed in Baekje, and headed for Fusang."

After the detailed introduction of Gao Xiangxuanli's identity, I have been given a detailed description.

Li Yuanai asked: "Didn't you go from Bai to Fusang, why did you come to Pyongyang?"

Gao Xiangxuanri didn't know who was in front of him, but he could have a group of tiger and wolf soldiers as guards. His identity was unusual. He hurriedly said, "After landing with Baekje, he encountered a war between Baekje and Silla, so he went north and walked around. He didn't want to be captured by Goguryeo, so he detained me in the mansion. Until the saint Shenwu conquered Pyongyang City, he could escape by chance. Today, he came to Xishi to buy some clothes and return to Fusang."

Li Yuanai frowned and said, "It's great, what are you doing when someone arrests you? As far as I know, the relationship between Fusang and Goguryeo is not bad."

In fact, not only Goguryeo, Baekje, Silla and Fusang have a bad relationship.

After all, they are not far apart from each other, and Fusang has a large population, strong strength, and has a very high development momentum. They have great economic value when dealing with them.

Gao Xiangxuanli shook his head and said, "I don't know this."

Li Yuanai was a little suspicious of him telling lies.

Looking at Gao Xiangxuanli's appearance, he was obviously not a prisoner in Goguryeo, but a guest of honor. He was just under control and lost his freedom.

Goguryeo would not control him for no reason, and Gao Xiangxuanli, as the party involved, had no reason to be unaware of it.

He really guessed that Fusang was extremely ambitious and always wanted to reach Haidong.

Goguryeo and Fusang had a conspiracy to divide Silla.

Goguryeo attacked the Tang army on the other side, and sent envoys to Fusang, hoping that he could send troops to attack Silla and serve all Silla.

In this way, Fusang and Baekje won Silla together, and they could join forces to deal with the Tang Dynasty.

Of course Fusang won't follow.
