Although the Western Qin and the Great Eclipse had signed an armistice treaty for more than a year, and both sides had already implemented the content of the treaty, the Great Cannibal ceded land, paid indemnities, and exchanged prisoners, but until the first month of 772 AD, the two sides had not re-established diplomatic relations. Therefore, the news that Bu Nuode, the Minister of Commerce of the Great Food Country, led the delegation to Xinjing still surprised Zhao Ziliang.

After listening to the report of Honglu Temple's Qing Hongxu, Zhao Ziliang asked: "It has been almost a year since the armistice, and our Western Qin and the Great Food Country have not yet re-established normal diplomatic relations, what do you think the Minister of Commerce of the Great Food Country, Bu Nuode, is here to lead the delegation to do this time?" ”

Hong Xu arched his hand and said: "Back to the king, Wei Chen has also thought about this issue, but he is not sure, after all, he has not yet contacted Bu Nuode, Wei Chen thinks that they are not here to re-establish diplomatic relations with us?" After all, it would be very beneficial for them for the two countries to re-establish diplomatic relations! In addition, the former caliph al-Mansur is in Xinjing, and did Bunod and his party come for him? ”

Zhao Ziliang got up and walked down with his hands behind his back and said, "There is this possibility, but it cannot be ruled out that they have other purposes for this mission to our country!" It's useless for us to speculate here, so let's do it, after Bu Nuode and his party arrive in Xinjing, your Honglu Temple will send someone to contact them in the process of receiving and relocating, test it, or ask directly, to see if you can find out their intentions in advance! ”

Hong Xu bowed his hand and agreed: "Obey!" ”

After Hong Xu left, Zhao Ziliang asked the eunuch to pass the internal guard command to Zhou Shan, Zhou Shan came quickly, and when he arrived at the door of the Qinzheng Palace, he took off his saber and handed it to the eunuch and walked into the hall to Zhao Ziliang with his fists and bowed: "Weichen Zhou Shan see the king!" ”

"Flat!" Zhao Ziliang raised his head and put down the brush, said with a smile: "Zhou Shan, the internal guard has achieved good results this year, seized three extraordinarily large and small crimes, destroyed two large-scale small organizations, and cracked three conspiracy rebellion cases, you have done a good job in this position, so it is obvious to all, I heard that you and your family still live in a small house in the old city." In view of your merits, this king will reward you with a big house located in the new city - No. 55 Luoyang Street, 10,000 yuan of gold coins, 100 horses of brocade, and 100 stones of japonica rice! ”

In Xinjing, a place where every inch of land is valuable, the most prosperous location of the new city belongs to Chang'an Street, which is a world-famous commercial street, running through the entire new capital, from the old city to the Taiji Square in front of the palace, this street is 16 zhang wide, and there are all kinds of tall buildings on both sides, and the east and west markets are on this street; And the most high-end residential area is in Luoyang Street, where every house is a forest garden or garden pattern, the overall area is more than ten acres, some reach fifty acres, not only built gardens, pavilions, ponds, corridors, lawns, stables, horse farms, but in the area of about ten acres of houses do not have so many supporting facilities.

Zhao Ziliang rewarded Zhou Shan with an area of about fifteen acres in the 55th Luoyang mansion, although it is not the largest, but it is also a medium-sized mansion on this street, and the houses on this street are all the property of the imperial court, and they are not sold to the outside world, but only given to meritorious ministers to live, if they are transferred to other places, this mansion will be repossessed by the imperial court.

In addition, 10,000 yuan of gold coins is a huge amount of money, equivalent to Zhou Shan's annual salary of ten years, and now the coins issued by the Western Qin State mainly include copper coins, silver coins and gold coins, each with three denominations, copper coins are one Wen, five Wen and ten Wen; silver coins for one, five, and taels; Gold coins of one, five, and ten. The dollar of gold coins is a coin, and the five and ten dollar denominations are paper notes, which are printed on specially formulated paper. One tael of silver is equal to ten coins, one silver coin is equal to one hundred copper coins, and one gold coin is equal to ten taels. The coins in circulation in the market are mainly copper coins and silver coins, and gold coins are generally only used for the transaction of large quantities of goods and the transaction of money for large commercial transactions.

After Zhao Ziliang finished speaking, a eunuch next to him came up with a tray and smiled at Zhou Shan: "Lord Zhou, this is a golden ticket of 10,000 yuan, 100 horses of brocade and 100 stones of japonica rice have been sent to the new house, please go and receive it immediately after your lord leaves the palace!" ”

The king gives, dare not resign! Zhou Shan picked up the golden ticket and immediately bowed to Zhao Ziliang and said, "Minister Zhou Shan, thank Lord Longen!" ”

Zhao Ziliang raised his hand and said with a smile: "Get up, this time the king asked you to enter the palace because of one thing for you to do." The Great Food Country sent a team of envoys on the way to Xinjing, led by the Minister of Commerce of the Great Food Country, Bu Nuod, I am afraid that it will arrive in a few days, as the so-called knowing oneself and knowing that the other is invincible, this king wants to know the true purpose of their trip before Bu Nord meets this king! ”

Zhou Shan immediately clenched his fists and said, "The minister's order!" ”

After sending Zhou Shan away, Zhao Ziliang put down the affairs of the court and returned to the inner palace to visit the queen Chen Qingying, Chen Qingying's health has not been very good for half a year, and her condition has worsened in the past month, and the imperial doctors are helpless, and have come up with a number of diagnosis and treatment plans, but Chen Qingying's condition is still not improving, she is thin, pale, unable to eat, and there is blood in the stool.

Blood in the stool, this is the most direct reflection of her lesions in the stomach and intestines, others do not know, but Zhao Ziliang knows that this disease is not stomach cancer or intestinal cancer, not to mention this disease in the Tang Dynasty, even in the 21st century, more than a thousand years later, there is no very effective way in the medical community.

"The king, the minister is not good at learning and art, and he is helpless about the queen's illness, please condemn the king!" Imperial Physician Chen knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

The East Palace was full of people, and after Zhao Ziliang arrived, in addition to the original palace maids and eunuchs in the East Palace, the princesses and ladies of the other palaces also rushed over one after another when they heard the news, so the palace was full of people.

Wang Zhiyun pointed at Imperial Doctor Chen and was furious: "What does it mean to be helpless, you people are all imperial doctors, but none of these many people can cure my mother's illness, what is the use of you imperial doctors?" ”

The imperial doctors were so frightened that they knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "Niangniang spare your life, Niangniang spare your life!" ”

Zhao Ziliang waved his hand with a straight face: "Okay, the doctor is not an immortal, and no one dares to cure all diseases." Imperial Physician Chen stays, and everyone else goes out! ”

When the imperial doctors heard this, they got up and retired, and the other palace ladies and eunuchs also retreated outside the palace to wait for news.

Only Zhao Ziliang, Imperial Physician Chen and Chen Qingying lying on the bed were left in the palace, this Imperial Physician Chen was already the best imperial physician in the palace, if he couldn't help it, he was afraid that no one else would be able to, Zhao Ziliang secretly sighed in his heart and asked, "Imperial Physician Chen, is there really no way?" ”

Imperial Physician Chen arched his hand with a look of shame and said: "The king, the minister is really ashamed of his trust in the king, the mother is a daughter, and her status is noble, and the minister will never stop if he has any way." If you can find the heir of the miracle doctor Sun Simiao, maybe there is still some hope! ”

Miracle doctor Sun Simiao? Zhao Ziliang couldn't help but be fascinated when he heard this, this old man lived for more than 140 years and finally died without a problem, Zhao Ziliang knew that this era was by no means so simple on the surface, since there were strong generals with high martial arts and strong strength against thousands of armies, then there would inevitably be people who cultivated the truth and attained the Tao.

Zhao Ziliang nodded, and immediately shouted outside: "Someone is coming, pass on the edict of the king, and order the Chang'an Regent Mansion to quickly send someone to find the heir of the divine doctor Sun Simiao, and send it to Xinjing as soon as possible after finding it!" ”

Someone outside the hall promised: "Yes!" ”

At this time, Chen Qingying, who was lying on the hospital bed, asked, "Imperial Doctor Chen, how long can I live?" ”

Imperial Physician Chen looked embarrassed: "This ??????"

Zhao Ziliang looked at Chen Qingying, calmed her face, and said to Imperial Doctor Chen: "Say, this king forgives you for your innocence!" ”

"Yes! Half a year at most, three months at least. If you can find a miracle doctor, maybe you can eradicate this disease! ”

Although Zhao Ziliang had been mentally prepared, he still couldn't accept it when Imperial Physician Chen really said this deadline, but Chen Qingying comforted him: "The concubine can follow the king in this life and become the king's wife, she is already very satisfied, birth, old age, sickness and death are predestined, and you can't force it!" ”

Zhao Ziliang turned his head to prevent Chen Qingying from seeing his expression, "Imperial Doctor Chen, the queen's condition must not be known to anyone, otherwise this king will ask for you!" ”

"Yes, King!"

Sending away Imperial Physician Chen, Zhao Ziliang sat on the edge of the couch and said to Chen Qingying: "Don't worry, Chang'an will definitely find a descendant of the divine doctor Sun Simiao, and he will definitely be able to cure your illness!" ”

Chen Qingying smiled and shook her head: "Isn't it ugly for the concubine to be like this now?" ”

Zhao Ziliang grabbed her hand: "If I wanted to marry a beautiful woman, I wouldn't have chosen you in the first place!" Appearance is just appearance, it is something that only ordinary people value, now I am the king of Western Qin, the regent of the Tang Dynasty, the power of the world, tens of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains are under my feet, what kind of woman can you want? No matter what her peerless face will eventually grow old again, and no matter what you become, you are the most beautiful in my heart! ”

"The concubine hasn't seen Lei'er for three years, let him come back, the concubine beware of never seeing him again!"

Zhao Ziliang promised: "Okay, I immediately ordered him to return to Xinjing and send someone else to replace him!" ”

Chen Qingying slowly closed her eyes with a smile and was satisfied, and fell asleep drowsily.

Zhao Ziliang came out of the dormitory, several princesses and a large number of eunuchs and palace maids were still guarding outside the palace, Xinping asked, "How is my sister?" ”

Zhao Ziliang said: "I've fallen asleep, you all go back, there is no need for so many people here!" I still have some military and political affairs to attend to, and I'll be back at dinner! ”

Coming to the Qinzheng Palace, Zhao Ziliang immediately issued an edict to establish the Persian Governor's Palace, with Yazd City as the governing place, to govern all military and political affairs in the Persian region, and ordered Chu Gezan to lead the post of Persian Governor, and set off to Yazd within three days from the date of receiving the edict to take office, and at the same time gave Zhao Lei an order to order him to temporarily hand over the military affairs to the deputy general Zamu to be responsible, and immediately rushed back to Xinjing on the day of receiving the edict, and transferred Bai Xiaode to take over the post of commander of the plateau army.
