King Loulan was terrified, but the power of the country was such that anyone could step on giants like the Xiongnu and Daqin.
King Loulan said helplessly, "Loulan is willing to be a vassal state of Qin."
Sima Cang took out a pen and paper, and signed the Covenant of Subjects with Lou Lan.
Chapter 160: Alchemist Xu Fu
King Loulan had no other choice but to agree to sign the Covenant of Subjects.
After all, Loulan was already scared by the Xiongnu, and when the Great Qin came again, Loulan would not be able to withstand it.
King Loulan doesn't want to be destroyed, and King Loulan doesn't want to be the emperor who is destroyed.
In the covenant of the subject country, there is a clause that allows the prince of King Loulan to go to Daqin as a hostage.
There is no room for negotiation with Daqin at all.
King Loulan could only agree to send Loulan's heir to Daqin as a hostage.
When asked when Lou Lan's prince would be able to return, Sima Cang just said flatly that it all depends on the King of Qin's wishes.
If Loulan's performance is better, Daqin may let Prince Loulan, who is a hostage, return to the country early.
Of course, there is another possibility that Loulan's prince is reluctant to come back after arriving in Daqin.
After the banquet is over.
Sima Cang borrowed people from Loulan and asked to understand the languages of other countries in the Western Regions.
Next, the Daqin caravan will go to other countries. They don't understand the languages of other countries, so they can only use translation.
King Loulan agreed to borrow someone.
King Loulan left with a heavy face.
When the courtiers and princes of Loulan learned about this unequal covenant between the courtiers.
They protested the signing of the Covenant of Subjects.
Among them, the prince, the voice of protest is the loudest.
After all, he will be sent to Daqin as a hostage.
Being a hostage is very bitter, especially the ancient eastern country Daqin that you don't know much about.
However, King Loulan still took Daqin's strong national power into consideration, so he could only suppress the dissatisfaction and tough attitude of his courtiers and princes.
The tiger's poison does not eat its son, but because of the issue of Loulan's life and death, King Loulan resolutely chose to sell his son.
In Xianyang City.
Xu Fu Xianyang spread the news about seeing the fairy mountain in Langya.
This is what Xu Fu witnessed with his own eyes. When it was disseminated, it was plausible and vividly described for the people's life.
For a while, the people in Xianyang believed that Xu Fu had really seen Xianshan.
gradually.
Rumors about Xianshan spread to the palace.
A letter about Xianshan was presented to Brother Zheng.
Brother Zheng felt a little happy when he saw what happened on the fairy mountain.
If only Xu Fu said that he had seen Xianshan.
Brother Zheng may not choose to believe it.
Because of the matter of Xianshan, it is also possible that Xu Fu used it to seek his fame and fortune.
However, the fishermen in Langya, like Xu Fu, have also seen this fairy mountain.
"Where is Xu Fu now?"
Xianshan's letter was entrusted by Xu Fu to the government, and then submitted by the government.
"This person is staying in Xianyang!"
"Send alchemist Xu Fu to the palace!"
"promise."
……
Inside the Prince's Mansion.
Jin Yiwei returned from Xianyang, and bowed to report to Zhao Shenghui, "His Royal Highness, today a scholar from Xianyang spread the news about Langya seeing Xianshan."
Zhao Sheng's eyes lit up slightly, and he asked Jin Yiwei, "What's the alchemist's name?"
The first thing Zhao Sheng thought of was that Xu Fu.
"It's Xu Fu!" Jin Yiwei replied.
It really was Xu Fu.
But Xu Fu is really brave enough.
Most of the methods in Xianyang are now thrown into prison.
Those who failed to find immortal medicines for Brother Zheng, or those who refined immortal medicines for Brother Zheng and produced poisonous pills instead.
Either die or be thrown into prison.
Now Xu Fu, as an alchemist, dared to commit crimes against the wind.
Zhao Sheng knew that if Xu Fu went to sea, he would never find the magic medicine.
But now that Xu Fu is out, Zhao Sheng also has some ideas about the sea.
In history, it is true that Xu Fu went out to sea to search for immortal medicines, but at the same time Xu Fu had experience in sailing.
Daqin conquered the sea sooner or later.
The appearance of Xu Fu is precisely this opportunity.
Zhao Sheng got up, intending to discuss with Brother Zheng about Xianshan.
