Dear friends, let's enjoy some recommended tickets!

……

Today is the day when the envoys of Central Asian countries meet Lu Zhe, and they are led by the officials of the Hongru Pavilion to arrive outside the gate of the palace early in the morning.

Because it is the day of the official audience, people from all over the world who are eligible to enter Miyagi wear their own or their own costumes, and decorate themselves as seriously or ornate as possible, and inevitably try to show their own country or their own heritage in some details.

Parthia advocated black, their formal dress was basically black, the style was a loose robe, and the slight difference with the Chinese robe was only in the sleeves, the Chinese robe was a wide-sleeved pattern, and the Parthian robe was a narrow-sleeved pattern. When the Chinese wore a robe, they would have a belt to tie their waists, but the Parthians did not have a belt for the waist, especially the hair of the Chinese people was tied up with scarves and other things, but the Parthians had a cloak and then a loose hat on their heads that was connected with the robe.

The Bactrians seem to have a particular admiration for white and gold, and their national dress is also a type of robe, although it is more different from the Chinese and Parthian robes. It was a skirt that looked like two pieces of cloth stitched together, showing a fitting fit, generally white, with golden trim stripes at the corners, and intricate stripes on the belt around the waist. The length of the Chinese robe and the Parthian robe reached almost the ankle, but the length of the Bactrian robe only reached the kneecap, so the Bactrian robe was more like a skirt than a robe. They wore skirts that reached only to the kneecaps, no hats on their heads, and no hair accessories on their heads.

If the Parthians and Bactrians had their own unique clothing, and the clothing of the two countries also showed a simple beauty, the rest of the countries or ethnic groups were messy and imitated, such as the clothing styles of the Alans and Scythians and the Bactrian ...... No, it should be said that it is imitated in Greek style, but it is different from white and golden yellow. The Alans had as strange a mix of green and orange as they could, and the Scythians simply wore bright red with horizontal stripes of yellow to look like boiled shrimp crackers.

The Arakosians and Kashmiris are also dressed in a waistcoat on the upper body and a wide lantern-like trousers on the bottom, which can be seen in the presence of well-informed people who tend to be more Indian.

Dressed in all sorts of good-looking and bizarre costumes, people from all over the world were waiting to be seen, and they were not too far from the waiting area where the Imperial officials were located. The Imperial officials were watching and observing them, and they would naturally look and observe the Imperial officials as well.

"Officials of the Eastern Empire, their costumes are very atmospheric."

"It seems like yes. Their costumes are as simple as they can be, and the wide long sleeves look beautiful. ”

"Why do they have so many gems on them?"

"No, no, no, it's not a gemstone, it's something called jade or jadeite. The use of jade or jadeite to carve into jade pendants or charms seems to be used to press the hem of clothes and other functions. ”

"I have to admit that in the field of clothing, the Eastern Empire has studied quite a few styles, some of which are dedicated to labor and some are usually leisure. There are also specialized dresses. Perhaps I should advise the king that he should learn from the ideas of the Eastern Empire and reform his dress. ”

There were a few envoys who nodded at the words of the Bactrian envoy, and there were a few who sneered.

Every country or nation will inevitably have its own unique clothing. This is the brilliant nature of historical development, and it is also the diversity brought about by different cultural concepts, but it is inevitable that the more backward the ethnic group, the heavier the imitation traces of the strong nation, just as the Greek civilization is in the leading position in the Mediterranean. Then the countries or ethnic groups near the Mediterranean will naturally be influenced by Greek culture, and this influence is clothing, food, ideas and so on.

Greek civilization has led the West in stages throughout its long history, to the point where it has become deeply entrenched. Even after the decline of Greek civilization, their civilization continued to influence the entire West, such as the rise of Rome is completely inherited from Greek clothing, food, culture, and even the Greek religious system was completely plundered by Rome, after all, the Romans have always had the habit of plundering everything. Rome's victory over a country not only plundered in terms of material, but also plundered the gods of the enemy country and became part of their own gods, becoming the main god or the servant god.

As soon as the bell rang, the imperial officials who were waiting in line to enter the palace city fell silent from the discussion, and the people who had left the queue hurriedly returned to their original positions.

"See, they distinguish whose status is valuable from the color of their clothes, and the officials in purple are at the front, and the crimson is behind the purple. There are also green and cyan underneath, though the officials in green and cyan robes do not seem to be qualified enough to participate in what they call court meetings. The little officer in green next to us, he still had our light to participate in the court meeting. ”

"I heard that their son of heaven wears black, the kind of garment called the crown garment. The crown dress is worn by people with noble status above the princes in the Eastern civilization, and each level of the crown dress is also very detailed. ”

People from all over the world are still chattering, and the officials over there in the Hongru Pavilion ...... That is, a person in a green official robe in their discussion, that is, a petty official who can only participate in the court meeting with their light, he has to speak out to stop it.

After stopping it, the petty officials in the mouths of the envoys of various countries, he thought very unhappily in his heart: "I also said that Lao Tzu was stained with your light, and he was really a bunch of uncivilized apes." He would scold the people who talked out loud, because the calf and foot hair exposed by those people was really too thick.

The closed gate was pushed open in a "babbling" sound, and the city gates on the left and right sides were wide open, and from the inside of both sides came out of the two teams of armor soldiers, who were divided into three steps and a post after leaving the city gate, and stood on the left and right sides of the city gate.

"According to the arrangement, we entered through the gate on the right."

"Oh, let's go."

The petty official of the Hongru Pavilion immediately stopped it, and he asked the "ape-men" from various countries to wait with an expressionless face, saying that the people had not yet arrived.

The envoys of various countries subconsciously looked at the imperial officials waiting in line, and found that those imperial officials were standing quietly in place, thinking that the psychology of being discriminated against had decreased, and they also stayed in place honestly and waited.

Then again, Huaxia is the concept of respecting the left. Arranging for envoys from various countries to enter the city from the right is really a kind of discrimination, but not to mention that the envoys of various countries don't know, even if they are known, they don't want to enter the city from the right, they can get out.

After not waiting long, the three convoys arrived at the square outside the city gate under the escort of the guards, and the car continued to move forward, while the guards stayed on the periphery of the square.

The car approached, and stopped at about the same time, because it was an unobstructed style of carriage for princes and kings, and some people recognized the three cars from afar as they were Wei Qi, the king of Wei, Zhao Xie, and the Qin king Fusu.

"Look. That's the so-called crown dress! ”

"It looks like it's all about the same!"

The crown clothes of the princes and kings are indeed similar in style, because whether they are the former Wei State, Zhao State, or Qin State, to put it bluntly, they are all vassal states under the command of the Zhou royal family, whether it is culturally or ethnically, they all belong to China, how big a difference can there be?

Wei Ji, Zhao Xie, and Fusu arrived, and the middle gate of the palace city also opened in a burst of "babbling", and a team of armor soldiers also walked out inside, and then stood guard on both sides.

The car stopped, and Fusu took the lead in getting out of the carriage. Wei Ji and Zhao Xie glanced at each other and got out of the carriage one after another. In fact, they had already informed them in advance that Lu Zhe allowed them to drive into the palace city without having to walk into the city like others, but they were obviously unwilling to consume their "majesty"?

After Fusu stood still on the ground, his eyes swept over the civil and military officials waiting in line to enter the city. He saw a lot of familiar "old people" in the queue, but his gaze did not stop deliberately, he just glanced at the past and looked at Wei Ji and Zhao Xie, and smiled: "Both." Walking side by side? ”

Zhao Xie smiled and nodded.

Wei Ji also had a smile on his face: "Good! Then approached Fusu slightly.

The imperial officials in the queue, many of them must have had multiple feelings in their hearts. Especially those who lived through the Warring States period, there are many feelings in their hearts.

The hatred between Qin and the other countries is not insignificant, but seeing that the three kings are getting along amicably, those things seem to have disappeared?

Whether it really disappeared or not is only known to geniuses, but Wei Ji's appearance seems to be deliberately approaching Fusu, that is because they both chose to be sealed, naturally speaking, they are in the same position, maybe they need to help each other a little bit, they can only show each other as much kindness as possible.

Zhao Xie is face doesn't matter, it really doesn't matter, it's not a pretense of indifference. Unlike Wei Qi and Fusu, who chose to be feudal, he chose to stay in the empire, and it seems that there are many kings of the old countries who choose to stay in the mainland, only he retains the prince, Han Cheng, Xiong Xin, and Ji Xia are just marquises. He doesn't need to deliberately pursue anything, as long as he has no other thoughts, he is already a prince, and he is destined to be very nourished, and he is naturally able to face everything with a detached attitude.

The three feudal kings entered the city from the middle gate of the palace city with laughter, and almost at the moment when the three of them entered, a bell rang from a distance, and at this time, the imperial officials and envoys of various countries entered the city from the left gate and the right gate respectively.

The officials of the empire often entered the palace to participate in the court meeting, and they have long been accustomed to the things in the palace, even if they see it for the first time, they will feel numb.

Envoys from various countries have long heard about what is going on in Miyagi, and once it is rumored, it will always be "artistically processed", such as a diamond the size of a fist, and it is rumored to be a diamond the size of a football, or even more exaggerated.

"I'll just say, what are you kidding, Mirates went back and boasted that the ground of the Eastern Empire was all paved with gold bricks, how could there be such an exaggerated thing!"

"Haha, did Mirates mean gold bricks? Abirodas boasted that the ground was paved with silver bricks. ”

They wanted to tease a few more words, but they heard the people next to them exclaim in unison, followed the sight of others, and the next moment involuntarily grew their mouths.

After entering the city, there was a square, almost a kilometer away and a wall, and they once again stepped through the gate hole, and in front of them were two hills, a hill made of gold and silver bricks.

At this moment, it was the time when the morning sun rose, and the golden sunlight shone on the mountains of gold and silver not far away, and the stacked gold reflected the dazzling gold, and the side of the silver stacked also reflected the dazzling silver light that almost blinded the eyes.

"That, that...... That's a lot of gold and silver? ”

"Many, many, many, many......"

In fact, it is not much, it should be almost sixty tons of gold, which is the accumulation of nearly ten years of the empire. Silver is almost two hundred and seventy tons, two hundred and ten tons more than gold, so the stacked mountains of silver are far larger than gold mountains.

I don't know what the reason is, maybe it is for the purest display, the two mountains of gold and silver are piled up like that, and there are only a few armor soldiers around to take care of them, and they don't see that there is a deliberate guarding force.

No one arranged to check the Jinshan and Yinshan nearby, so they continued to move forward step by step, and some envoys of different races wanted to stop and were even reprimanded by the "Sesame Mung Bean Official", and the reprimand caused the surrounding armor soldiers to look sideways for a while, and the imperial officials also stared at them with contempt.

"Are they showing their wealth?"

"Not like that, right? Didn't deliberately show us anything, didn't even let us stay. ”

"Look, some people are getting near the gold and silver, and they're going to move them somewhere?"

Xiao He and Mian Dippy, who were originally in the queue, temporarily left the team, they didn't know when they had arrived next to the two precious metal hills, and they were giving instructions to some people, waiting for the order to be completed, only Xiao He returned to the queue, but Mian Dipper stayed in place.

The two precious metals placed on the table, they were gathered from all over the place four or five days ago, and the reason why they appeared here was really for the purpose of showing off, but it was to show Lu Zhe the results of the precious metal collection, not specially arranged to show off the envoys of various countries. They were just showing their faces here, and then they were sent to the Miyagi vault for storage, and eventually shipped in batches to the mint along the Yangtze River to be made into gold and silver coins, which became the currency that would be used as the first step of the empire's monetary reform.

The wealth and wealth were moving, and the mountains of gold and silver stimulated a considerable number of people, and most of the imperial officials were stimulated to have the ambition to open up and plunder abroad, and the envoys of various countries could not help but peep into the wealth of the empire...... (To be continued......)
