Chapter 17 Ostrich
Ximi and Xihou was hard to refuse the affection, and Zhang Qian lobbled Ximi and Xihou, and the two sides hit it off.
"It's obviously not like this when things develop."
Anuti opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but couldn't say it, because he had no reason to stop Zhang Qian from approaching Xiumixihou.
Bah, I was wrong.
After all, I am in the hearts of the Han people. Since it is beneficial to the Han Dynasty, let Zhang Qian stay here.
Anuti comforted himself.
Of course, Anuti did not leave quickly. Humi Xihou was very enthusiastic and quickly arranged a room for Zhang Qian and others, and changed the room to hold a banquet.
There is a unique cave in the mansion of Xiumixi. There is a forest of fruit trees hidden in the red tiles and white walls behind it.
"This is called pomegranate flower. In the future, a fruit called pomegranate will bear. The pomegranate is round. When it is ripe, it cracks one by one and reveals many transparent pomegranate seeds. These seeds are sweet and sour, which are very delicious."
Anuti is showing his talents to Zhang Qian and others. There are several beautiful trees in front of him, with green leaves, and many dark red petals of small flowers exposed in the green leaves.
Xu Mixihou suddenly received the matter and left, and ordered the housekeeper to guide everyone to wander around.
The butler of Xiumi Xihou was a little confused because he found that he could not even penetrate his mouth. What language did Prince Anuti speak?
How can I communicate well with the Han envoy? It seems that I am redundant. When I heard Prince Anuti's inquiry: "Does this pomegranate tree have good seeds?"
This time, the butler understood it and felt the burning eyes of the Han Cang, and he replied: "Yes."
After saying that, he saw Prince Anuti continue to talk and laugh with the Han envoy. He touched his head and seemed to be a guest.
"When you leave, you can bring some seeds back, and you should survive in the Han Dynasty." Anuti seemed to be considering the Han Dynasty.
A hot stream flowed through Zhang Qian's heart: "Prince Anuti is a good person, a good friend of the Han Dynasty."
But what he didn't know was that even without Anuti, he would have brought these things back to the great man in history. Anuti had no loss at all. He just needed to move his mouth to gain favor.
There were so many things in the mansion of Xiumi Xihou. Even Anuti opened his eyes. After walking a few steps forward, he saw a walnut tree two or three meters tall with leaves facing each other, with spherical yellow flowers.
"What tree is this?"
"This is a walnut tree. Walnuts have a hard shell. When they knock it open, the walnut meat inside is divided into several pieces by the soft shell. The walnut meat contains a lot and is very delicious."
"Walnut meat? Is it meat?" Tang Yi's father suddenly asked in silence.
Anuti's expression of words was too modern, which caused misunderstandings among the public. He quickly explained: "No, no, no, no, it's not meat, it's something to eat."
Well, this explanation seems to be the same as none.
“Are there walnuts?”
The butler was suddenly asked, and he raised his head: "Yes."
Anuti waved his hand: "Get some pomegranates and walnuts over, and let the Han envoy taste it in person."
The butler said aloof and quickly ran to get it.
At the following moment, Anuti modestly showed everyone his insignificant talent.
After a while, everyone found a place to sit down and tasted the fruits that the butler got back.
Zhang Qian had a gentle attitude and approachable attitude. He also communicated with the butler from time to time, and the butler also relaxed.
Unconsciously, it was brought from food to the country.
"You are a restorator?"
Anuti spit out the grape skin from her mouth and looked at the butler in surprise. Unexpectedly, the butler in Xiumixihou's mansion turned out to be an Absolute man.
"It seems that Mr. Xiumi Xi is very open-minded. He not only values foreigners, but also believes in Jackology. This is an active study person." Anuti gave Mr. Xiumi Xi a comment.
The Great Yuezhi is an outsider. He is a small tribe who is strong in the great country and is more scrutinized by some foreigners. The Grand Butler is already considered the confidant of Xiu Mi and is close to Xiu Mi's core.
Zhang Qian also put down what he had in his hand and asked curiously: "How about rest in peace?"
Although he learned some knowledge of rest from Anu's mouth, he still wanted to learn more from the mouth of the butler, the restorator.
"It's very rich. The capital of Fanduo is larger than the Lan City. It has hundreds of cities, thousands of miles around it, and two or three thousand miles from the East to the West."
The butler paused for a moment and asked, "I don't know which one is the biggest, Anxi and your Han Dynasty?"
Anuti was stunned. Such scenes and scenes seemed a little familiar.
A sudden light of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he remembered that it was also what happened in the Han Dynasty.
Anuti's eyes fell on Zhang Qian, and another story also had some connection with Zhang Qian.
The body was connected to the southwest of the Central Plains, so Zhang Qian tried his best to persuade Emperor Wu of Han to open up this passage, and there was a country named Yelang in the southwest.
(In the first year of Yuanshou), the King of Dian and the Han envoy said: Who is the Han Dynasty and I? The same is true for the Marquis of Yelang. Because the Tao is not clear, they each thought they were the rulers of the state, but they did not know that the Han Dynasty was vast.
And now, I asked which one is the biggest, Anxi or Han Dynasty?
Anuti wanted to know how Zhang Qian answered.
Zhang Qian smiled. Of course, the Han Dynasty was larger than Anxi. As a great country, Zhang Qian was unwilling to boast. He didn't say much, but said: "Anxi is a respectable country. Anxi produces rice and wheat. This is the same as my great man, but I have no grapes."
Zhang Qian picked up a grape and smiled and said, "But in the future, my great man will have grapes like Anxue."
Everyone smiled and said that this topic had been revealed.
In the following moments, Zhang Qian also began to talk about some customs and interesting stories of the Han Dynasty.
"It's so strange. Prince Anuti doesn't feel surprised at all, as if he's experienced it." Zhang Qian frowned.
When he explained, everyone else would show surprise and emotion from time to time, only Anuti had a slight smile on his face, looking like he knew it.
"Prince Anuti, I have some interesting things to share with us."
Since he had found him, Anuti was happy to reveal some knowledge to them. He stroked his sleeves, attracted people's attention, and spoke slowly.
"There is a branch west of Anjib (about the area of Iraq now), where there are rivers and rainwater also grow rice."
"There is a big bird egg on the branch, and one egg is like a urn!"
"A bird egg like this? How big is the bird?" Zhang Qian asked half-believingly.
"The bird is as big as a sheep, and its wings are ten feet long when it spreads. But it is too heavy and cannot fly. If it is raised, it can be ridden as a horse."
Everyone was very surprised and had a picture in their minds, but because they had never seen it, they were puzzled.
Anuti was talking about ostrich. To be honest, by chance, he had eaten ostrich eggs, but he regretted it after eating it. It was really unpalatable.
