Chapter 148: Intention

In Xiyang, Huangzhou, Wuweizhai, and Yuwen Shiwu were meeting guests. The big shopkeeper Wang Yue was also accompanying him. The guests they were hosting were Sima Nai, the "returning overseas Chinese" and his party. Tianlai "Novels w『w『

After nearly a year, Sima Nai visited famous mountain temples in the Central Plains, collected a large number of Buddhist scriptures, invited three Buddha statues, and several monks who had attained enlightenment, and went back to his hometown for a trip.

Sima Nai's father Simada and others were from Liang, the Southern Dynasty. They traveled to Japan nearly 60 years ago and then settled down. Since then, they have never returned to their hometown in the Central Plains. This time Simana returned to the Central Plains to collect Buddhist scriptures, so naturally he had to go back to his hometown to take a look.

Simanai saw it only in his father's memory, filling the soil of his hometown with his own eyes, bringing it back to Japan to let his father smell the smell of home.

He was born in Japan and grew up in a village where people came from. He had no impression of his hometown in the Central Plains. Now he traveled all over the mountains and rivers of the south of the Yangtze River and finally had a general idea of ​​his hometown.

Big, really big.

Compared with the Central Plains dynasty, Japan's territory is not as good as the territory of the Central Plains dynasty.

"This time, thanks to the Duke of the Kingdom of China, the next journey is unobstructed. Even when we arrived in the State of Chen in Jiangnan, there were people taking care of us along the way." Sima Nai said sincerely, but Duke Yuwen Wen of Zhu led his troops outside and could not thank him in person.

Yuwen Shiwu laughed and said, "Young Village Master, you are polite. The Duke of the Guogong received favors from Sima Village Master in Hakka, Japan. As the saying goes, the grace of a drop of water should be repaid with a spring. Just say what needs the Shao Village Master needs."

"I don't know what the Duke of the State said last time..."

"Shao Village owners should not be anxious. The sea route is dangerous. The route from Jiankang to Bota is still exploring. Seeing the spring breeze suddenly rises, the sea boat is about to test sail. You have to walk for a few rounds before you can rest assured."

Speaking of this, Yuwen Shiwu did not forget to emphasize again: "Your village owner has to trouble the arrangements in Hakata so that our sea boat will not be rejected if it arrives."

"This is natural, everything is as agreed. If there is no secret text, it will not be a ship sent by Duke Zhu."

"The Duke of the State is leading the troops outside, leaving a letter for me to pass it to the young village owner, and ask the young village owner to return to Japan and hand it over to the Sima village owner."

Yuwen Shiwu took out an exquisite wooden box and opened it. There was a letter inside. After Sima Nai looked at it, he closed the wooden box and bowed solemnly: "Don't worry, you will hand it over to your father."

As Yuwen Wen's confidant, Yuwen Shiwu hosted Sima Nai who was about to return to China on behalf of Langzhu. Before Yuwen Wen went on a trip, he had already explained the relevant matters in detail. In addition to Yuwen Shiwu, Wang Yue also had his responsibilities.

Sima Nai and his party walked north from Huangzhou, went north to Yecheng and set off for a trip back home. They naturally took the path that the Japanese envoy sent Zhou. However, with Yuwen Wen's arrangement, there was no need to worry about anything along the way.

His interactions with people from Japan were recorded in the court, so Simana and his party could stay at the post station with legitimate status until they boarded the ship and left the Central Plains.

But these benefits do not include Buddhist scriptures, Buddha statues, and monks who accompanied Simanai to Japan to promote Buddhism.

Therefore, Wang Yue's responsibility was to arrange people to help Simana transport Buddhist scriptures, Buddha statues, and take care of the monks' food and accommodation. This would have been a bit tricky a few years ago, but now it is different.

The Huangzhou caravan traveled between Yecheng and Xiyang, and the accommodation along the way had already formed a network. Wang Yue arranged for the caravan to go with Sima Nai to help transport cargo and transport people, not only to Yecheng, but also to the seaside to board the boat.

Among the wealthy merchants in Yecheng, there are partners of Huangzhou merchants. With the help of the other party's relationship network, Wang Yue can guarantee that Sima Nai has no worries along the way. Of course, based on the intention of prevention, everything is carried out within the scope of the government's permission.

Yuwen Wen didn't want to be honest with the people, and was stigmatized by "connecting with foreign countries, selling prohibited goods, and population".

Wang Yuejun told Sima Nai about the specific arrangements. Seeing such a comprehensive itinerary, Sima Nai couldn't help but sigh: "The care of Duke Zhu is unforgettable. After returning to China, he will report it to Minister Su and my minister!"

"The young village master, the Duke of Guo said that his relationship with the Sima village master is upright, so the envoys of your country should not contact the Duke of Guo privately, and must comply with the laws of the court."

"This is nature, this is nature!"

Of course, Simanai knew the interests of this. The Central Plains court did not look at Japan, and the ministers were even more lazy to interact with Japanese envoys. If someone did this, it would be easy to be thrown into sewage.

What is the intention of having an affair with foreign countries?!

Yuwen Wen was cautious, Siman understood and couldn't find it. The official recognition of their relationship with Yuwen Wen was also a major breakthrough, and this was the first time in hundreds of years.

The kings of Japan sent envoys to the Central Plains, and they didn't have much thoughts except to ask for a title and some rewards to return. The Central Plains court had no interest in interacting with Japan, and it has been like this for hundreds of years.

If it were the past, it would be like this, but the newly rising Suwo family in Japan has always advocated strengthening exchanges with the Central Plains, introducing talents and technology, and reforming Japan's backward political, economic and cultural systems.

The Suwo family has been doing these things, but there are still too few people who want to interact with the Central Plains court, and they want to interact with the Central Plains court, but the other party ignores them.

It was at a loss that the gods blessed him, and a gust of wind blew the Duke of Zhou's Kingdom to Hakata. After finally getting on this line, I thought the other party was just talking verbally, but the result was real.

Sima Nai was in the Central Plains for nearly a year and roughly understood the current situation in the Central Plains. Yuwen Wen's status is noble, not an idle royal family. He has power, soldiers, and territory. His uncle is also the pillar of the Zhou royal family.

Although Zhou State is quite powerful now, the Yuwen royal family is still quite powerful. With such a powerful noble support, Japan's desire to expand exchanges with the Central Plains is likely to be realized.

Sima Nai had already seen Yuwen Wen's methods. He knew that Zhou and Chen were in a state of hostility. However, Yuwen Wen could actually keep him in Chen. What does this mean?

This shows that this Duke Zhu is a man in Chen State, and that person has an extraordinary status. You can't find out about this kind of thing, but Sima Nai has already seen that Yuwen Wen's actual strength is stronger than his apparent strength.

Thinking of the fact that the Zhou army in Shannan has now captured the capital of the Sui Kingdom, the future situation is likely to be that the Zhou Kingdom will become the overlord of the Central Plains again. It will naturally be beneficial and harmless to be able to establish good relations with powerful people like Yuwen Wen.

If Zhou can send envoys to Japan, it will be the first time in a thousand years. With such great achievements in hand, the position of Minister Su and our minister in the court will be even more stable!

Thinking of this, Sima Nai was happy. He was not a fool. He knew that Yuwen Wen was so "passionate" not only to repay his kindness, but Huangzhou Commercial Ta was entirely supported by Yuwen Wen's support, so this person's idea was about to come out.

He thought that this Duke of Zhu had the means to do business, and probably what he wanted was related to doing business. Now that he had confirmed Yuwen Wen's strength, it was time for him to tell the truth before leaving.

Sima Nai stood up and said solemnly to Yuwen Shiwu: "Captain Yuwen, please convey your wishes. What does the Duke of the State need to provide in Japan? Minister Su and my minister will do it no matter what!"
