The Emperor of Fuso looked at Suzuki and Fujii Jiro beside him with some horror. The others were out of town, and only these two people came in with him. Although Fujii Jiro saw the Emperor's eyes asking for help, this guy knew his place very well.
Don't you see that the badge on my waist is from the Tang Dynasty? From this moment on, I have nothing to do with the Fusang court. You don't even understand your own situation, and you're still thinking of disobeying the orders of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. You're trying to drag me down with you, right? What right do I have to care about you?
Fujii Jiro's eyelids rolled over, and he didn't even look at the former emperor. This made the emperor furious. "Don't you know what your family's situation is like? If it weren't for the imperial grace, you wouldn't know where to fish."
As for Lord Suzuki, ever since he was called away by Ding Jiayong that day, this guy has been thinking about how he will do his job in the future. Now he is actually in the position of a liaison officer, mediating between the Tang Dynasty and Fuso. Although he is also an official of Fuso, he comes into contact with more officials of the Tang Dynasty every day.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's attitude is already very clear, and persuasion is of no use, so you have to go whether you should go or not. There is no point in asking us for help.
"Your Majesty, our Emperor may be afraid of sailing on the sea. If not, I would like to ask Your Majesty to approve a large ship for our Emperor, a very stable ship. I believe our Emperor will have no other requests."
Suzuki thought for a moment and said, "When he finished speaking, the Fuso Emperor wanted to strangle him. Am I talking about the size of the ship? I'm saying I don't want to go to the Tang Dynasty. Why don't you understand what I mean?" Sailing on the sea is certainly dangerous, but Tang Dynasty ships come and go hundreds of times, and I've never heard of any mistakes.
What I am afraid of now is whether something will happen on the way. No one knows what Li Xiang is thinking. If he finds someone to kill him on the way, he will have no place to cry even in the vast ocean.
"So that's the reason. Look at my brain. Although Fuso is an island nation, its shipbuilding technology wasn't very good back then. So, send someone to bring my ship over and escort His Majesty the Emperor to Chang'an."
Li Xiang nodded at Suzuki Nakatasu. This guy was indeed a good problem solver. After Li Xiang finished speaking, the matter was basically settled. If the emperor still made other requests, it would be a bit of an overreaction. You have to understand your current status.
Ding Jiayong wanted to say that this was against the rules and that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince could not let anyone ride on his boat, but when he saw Li Xiang's look, Ding Jiayong kept silent.
But this guy was still not convinced, so he went back to instruct the crew on the ship to find another room for this guy and never let him enter our Highness's room, otherwise, whether His Highness would need him in the future or not, these Japanese people would not even be worthy of getting on the ship.
This is the case with the young officers in the Tang army. They regard Li Xiang as their idol, so no matter what good things they have, Li Xiang must enjoy them first. No one else can use Li Xiang's things. If you want to ask, it depends on whether you have the same ability as our prince. If not, get out of here.
"Congratulations to our Emperor on his successful journey to the Tang Dynasty!"
The Emperor of Fuso hadn't said a word yet, but Suzuki Nakatasu had already knelt in obeisance. Fujii Jiro wanted to slap himself. It would have been fine if he hadn't understood it just now, but why hadn't he understood it now? Was he destined to be an errand boy?
Jiro Fujii quickly knelt down and shouted together with Suzuki Nakatasu. Although the other Japanese people in the room did not understand, they still knew the rules here. If two people shouted something together, then we just had to follow.
The thing that the ministers outside least wanted to see happened, but at this moment the cheers had already begun in the room. If we did nothing, these Tang Dynasty soldiers next to us might remember us.
Many people have disappeared in the capital in the past few days. Some of them are the ones who created chaos on the streets, some are important talents in various fields of Fuso, and some are court officials like them. Anyway, as long as they do not cooperate with the Tang Dynasty, they will probably never have the chance to appear again.
"Palace Master, our Emperor..."
The people outside touched their necks, then thought about their families at home, and decided to hurry up and cheer with everyone. If anyone spoke slowly, they might be the one who disappeared.
What does it mean to be a dumb person eating bitter herbs and unable to express one's pain? I'm afraid the Emperor of Fuso has now experienced this.
He never said a word about going, but now it has been decided. It's all the fault of that bastard Suzuki Nakata. You are really a traitor to your country. All the traitors in the world should regard you as their ancestor.
When the Emperor glared at Suzuki Nakatasu, he would have lowered his head and stopped looking at the Emperor. But today was completely different. He had Li Xiang's approval. The Fuso Imperial Family would be a mascot from now on. Do you still want us to stay around? Even if we continued to stay around, what could we offer?
They can't even provide the most basic official salaries. According to the newly signed agreement, all taxes will be collected directly by the Tang Dynasty. Except for some necessary money, the rest will all be shipped to the Tang Dynasty, including your royal family's expenses, which are all stuck.
So after a night of deep thinking, Suzuki Nakata already knew what to do next, which was to draw a clear line with these people. If he continued to hang out with these people, he would be miserable in the future.
There are still countless descendants in the family, and they still want to live a life of superiority in Fuso, so Suzuki Nakatasu gathered them all together. From now on, our family will be different from before. As long as we can serve the people of the Tang Dynasty well, we will still be the superior people in this land.
"Master Suzuki, while the Emperor is away, you will be in charge of all matters concerning Fuso."
After hearing what Li Xiang said, Suzuki Nakata was so happy that he almost jumped up. Isn't this the best reward for his previous behavior?
"Thank you, Your Highness..."
