Chapter VIII Turkic Missions

Zhang Lin was blushed when everyone said that, and he felt that his reaction was a bit too much. However, his instinctive fear of being disfigured by a soldering iron forced him to react like this just now.

Zhang Lin cherishes his life and his remarkable appearance. If he is disfigured and becomes a disabled person, what is the point of being a human being?

"Please give me your wish." Zhang Lin took the initiative, closed his eyes, and said helplessly.

In his time, tattoos were quite popular. Many people of his age had tattooed various patterns on their bodies. This mark was probably no different from tattoos? Zhang Lin comforted himself in his heart.

Two eunuchs stepped forward and took off half of Zhang Lin's top, revealing their fair skin, strong muscles and chest.

Zhang Lin grinned and showed a feeling of being on the execution ground. In his own opinion, his courage and perseverance were melodious, but it made all the pseudo-women and eunuchs at the scene shook their heads. They felt that Zhang Lin was too brave. Especially the eunuchs, they looked down on Zhang Lin even more because compared to the pain of castrating their lives, what is it worth to put a brand on?

Zhang Yizhi shook his head, raised the tongs, and pressed the burnt red soldering iron to Zhang Lin's right chest expressionlessly.

"Shisheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshes~" The extremely hot soldering iron touched the flesh and blood body, as if water was poured into a red oil pan, and immediately made a sound of sensation of green smoke rose, and a burnt smell of barbecue was heard.

"Ouch~" Zhang Lin screamed in pain, his eyes turned black and he went over in shock...

....

The Tai Chi Hall is majestic and majestic.

Wu Zetian was wearing a crown robe and a solemn expression on his face, waiting for the Turkic mission to meet him. The civil and military officials each held up tablets and arranged two squads, with a solemn expression.

Wu Zetian looked out of the palace gate with his eyes, and the scene of meeting the Turkic envoy here gradually appeared in his mind, as if in front of him.

That was a month and a half ago.

At that time, the Turkic envoy, one chief and two deputy chief, came to the middle of the hall and bowed to Wu Zetian, and then the envoy solemnly proposed:

"The Khan of the Turkic Kingdom, Jili, admired the majesty of the Celestial Empire and wanted to become the favor of Qin and Jin with the Celestial Empire. He specially sent envoys to offer ten good bows, ten good horses, ten night pearls, and one more precious pearl. As a betrothal gift, he asked His Majesty to marry the princess of the Celestial Empire and make a good alliance forever."

After hearing the Turkic envoy's words, Wu Zetian immediately thought: Apart from Princess Taiping, she is her adopted daughter Princess Anding. Princess Anding is old and married, and the only one who meets the requirements for marriage is Princess Taiping.

Is Princess Taiping her daughter, her pearl in her hand, and her right-hand man. How could Wu Zetian agree to Princess Taiping go to the Turkic marriage? It would not be like cutting off her flesh? After hearing the Turkic envoy's request for marriage, she looked displeased and refused the Turkic envoy's request on the spot. It was utterly remarkable: "Your country's betrothal gift is requested to be returned. I am very pleased with the intention of making good things for your country, but the princess's jade body is unaware of it and cannot travel far. She specially gave her hundreds of silk, fifty good horses, and thirty beauties to express her apology."

After hearing this, the Turkic envoy knew that Wu Zetian had misunderstood and quickly told him seriously: "Your Majesty, our country's Khan is determined to make a good relationship with the Celestial Empire, and has not specified any princess to marry. As long as the royal princess who are noble in blood, beautiful and generous and willing to marry into the Turkic Kingdom, we Khan are willing to accept it."

After hearing this, Wu Zetian turned his worries into joy and agreed on the spot.

The Turkic envoy completed the task successfully and returned happily, and agreed to send a delegation to the Gods to welcome the princess's marriage in a month.

After the Turkic envoy left, King Wu Chengsi of Wei recommended Wu Yuanmin, the daughter of Prince Wu Youde of Nanping County, as the princess of marriage to Wu Zetian.

Wu Zetian agreed to the candidate recommended by Wu Chengsi. As long as the person who is married is not Princess Taiping, she doesn't care who she is. Besides, Wu Yuanmin comes from the Wu family, and she likes it even more.

Wu Zetian conferred Wu Yuanmin as the princess of Nanyang and rewarded a large number of treasures to Wu Youde.

The Wu family was a little disappointed that Wu Yuanmin was not enthroned as a married princess. However, the names of the princess and princesses are not much different. After all, Wu Yuanmin is going to the Turks. Whether her title is a princess or a princess is no different from that of the Wu family. The most important thing is that she will be the Queen of Geely Khan, and this identity is more valued by the Wu family.

Once the daughter of the Wu family becomes Kedu, the Wu family will have a deeper foundation. With the Turks as powerful foreign aid, the possibility of the position of the East Palace that is waiting for in vain will be greatly enhanced.

The Wu family had already prepared dowry items for marriage, waiting for the Turkic mission to welcome him, and immediately escorted the Turkic ones.

A month passed quickly, but the Turkic mission has not arrived for a long time, which made the Wu family very anxious. Every day, they sent scouts hundreds of miles away to inquire, which can be said to be a suspense and eager to see.

A few days ago, six hundred miles from Gannan Road came urgently, saying that the Turkic mission had entered Yumen Pass and would arrive at Shendu soon, which made all the Wu family happy, excited and even excited, and almost set off firecrackers.

At this moment, the Turkic envoys composed of fifty envoys, led by Shibi Khan, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes and decorated with flowery feathers, lined up in two rows, and according to the official rank, passed through the Liangyi Gate, entered the Tai Chi Hall in sequence, and arrived at the imperial stairs, and danced together to worship, shouting long live the song.

"Flat!" Wu Zetian raised his hand, smiled happily, and said loudly.

Shibi Khan got up after worshiping and asked respectfully: "Your Majesty, I don't know who the princess is? Can I let my envoy see her beautiful face?"

Wu Zetian smiled and told Shibi Khan: "The one whom the marriage chosen by the Heavenly Dynasty for the Great Khan of Qili was Wu Yuanmin, the princess of Nanyang."

Hearing Wu Zetian's declaration, the Turkic envoys changed their faces and whispered: "So the one chosen by the Heavenly Kingdom for us Khan is not a royal princess?" "How can this be done?" "We can't get in the work."

Shibi Khan, who was still smiling a little the moment before, suddenly became severe and murderous, and even had anger, protesting loudly to Wu Zetian: "Your Majesty, I want to protest! Our country admires the majesty of the Celestial Empire, so we have a proposal for marriage. One side of the marriage is the Great Khan of our country, and the other side needs the royal princess of your country. This is self-evident. However, the precious country uses his surname as a woman who is just a vague person and is just a fool of our country's Great Khan! It's really too much!"

"Protest! Protest!" The other envoys also raised their arms and shouted.

"Please know that when the emperor's surname is Wu today, the royal family naturally belongs to the Wu family. What's wrong with the princess surnamed Wu in our country?" Wu Chengsi looked at Shibi Khan with an eagle-like gaze, and argued with strikingly.
