If he had to find the most annoying one among the surrounding hostile countries, Tubo would undoubtedly be Lu Chen's first choice.
Junior high school history books only tell you that Princess Wencheng entered Tibet, but they don’t tell you that Tubo and the Tang Dynasty later fought a war for hundreds of years.
When the fighting was at its most intense, Tubo even reached the capital of the Tang Dynasty.
Of course, this is not the reason why Lu Chen hates Tubo. The real reason is that there are too many disgusting things in Tubo, a country with a unified political and religious system.
When Lu Chen was visiting a museum during his travels, he was shocked by the information displayed there and his three views were completely shattered. Things like Ajie drum, Kabala, and Gangling all reflected the evil of human nature, and this was just the tip of the iceberg. Even worse things happened from time to time.
Lu Chen's disgust towards Tubo was not personal disgust towards personal disgust, but disgust between a high civilization and a low and barbaric civilization.
The serfdom in Tubo was a form of slavery. As slaves, serfs not only had to accept exploitation from their owners, but also had to accept exploitation from religion in this theocratic country. Do you think they could live a good life?
In the history of the previous life, Princess Wencheng's entry into Tibet not only brought a hundred years of friendship and peace between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty, but also brought a large number of craftsmen, which led to a leap in the development of Tubo's culture and technology.
This time, Tubo wanted to marry the princess of Da Qi, obviously with the same purpose.
The surrounding countries have already known the results of the two wars between Da Qi and Liao Jin. It has been such a long time, and the specific details of the war have also been passed to the leaders of the surrounding countries.
Everyone is quite coveting the new weapons used by Da Qi and the advanced technologies applied in military and civilian fields during this period.
It is no secret that the people of Da Qi are ambitious and care about face. The Tibetans thought that if they lowered their attitude a little and said a few nice words, the emperor of Da Qi might be so happy that he would give them the good things directly.
After all, you have to give some dowry when you marry off your daughter. This is not some province where people are famous for spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy a bed and quilt. Do you have the nerve to let your daughter come here empty-handed?
Lu Chen felt particularly unhappy when he thought that the good things he had created might have been given to a bunch of beasts like this.
Since he is no longer needed in Bazhou City, he can just go back!
Just as Lu Chen was rushing back, the Tubo envoys proposing marriage had already arrived in Da Qi.
Sandanbu was the leader of this team. The 40-year-old had once been on a diplomatic mission to Da Qi. That was when he was a teenager and followed his father to this place.
More than 20 years have passed, and now he has set foot on this land again. Everything here seems both familiar and unfamiliar to him.
What is familiar is the accent of the people here, the local customs and the smell in the air.
What was unfamiliar were the new buildings, fresh things, and all kinds of scenes that overwhelmed him.
On the way here, he had already read dozens of Tang Dynasty's official bulletins.
Looking at the content above, Sandanbu said it was simply unbelievable.
But when he actually arrived at the place and saw the things described in the official newspaper, even though he had been prepared, he was still shocked beyond words.
Along the way, he also came into contact with the local people of Da Qi.
Although the country had just experienced natural disasters and war, Sandanbu could see that even the most ordinary people had smiles full of hope on their faces, which was different from the serfs under the rule of Tubo, who had numbness on their faces.
When everyone arrived at the foot of the capital of Da Qi, they looked at the two huge hot air balloons floating in the sky and the funny expressions on the balloons, and everyone exclaimed in surprise.
Firstly, I think that the idea of people being able to fly is too metaphysical. Could it be that the people of Da Qi have found a way to become gods?
Secondly, I feel that the current aesthetic taste of the people of Da Qi is a bit weird!
Except for some of the lowest-level staff members, most of those who could follow Sandanbu to propose marriage were nobles.
These people may dress in a very rustic way and have no taste, and they may smell very bad, but they are really rich.
It's the kind of wealth that is superficial and easy to see, the kind of wealth that lets you know at a glance that this is a rich person.
The way Li Xiang showed off his wealth in front of the Liao and Jin people was not good enough in front of the Tibetans.
These people want to turn everything they can use into gold, and many of them can blind others with just their mouths.
Since you are not short of money, you will definitely spend money when you come to a prosperous place like the capital of Da Qi.
It was only a few steps from the entrance to the city to the Honglu Temple, but some of them had already bought everything they could see.
San Danbu frowned slightly, feeling that the people he brought with him were a little too embarrassing.
You can buy any new gadget you see, but why would you buy an iron pot? Can't we Tubo make it?
What made Sandanbu even more unhappy was that although these Daqi people were doing their business, they were holding their noses when talking to them.
As for the others, they kept their distance from them.
Sandanbu knew that his family members had a smell, but it shouldn't be so exaggerated.
If you say there is a smell, don't the Liao, Jin, and Xixia people have any smell? Why do you only treat us like this?
You are discriminating!
What made Sandanbu even more unhappy was that he found that even the Liao, Jin and Xixia people showed expressions of disgust on their faces when facing them.
