Chapter Ten No Empress in Empress Temple

The trade between the Purple Horde Khanate and the Javanese Kingdom has been going on for more than twenty years, but the direct contact time has not been much. Now, with the increase in demand, the two sides have begun to formally establish diplomacy.

In 1405, Emperor Timur's uncle and Roman Khan Basil Yerigo died successively. The departure of the two heroes gave the defeated country a rare opportunity.

In particular, the rule of the Timur Khanate was not strong. After the death of the old emperor's uncle, his descendants, like an ordinary khanate, began to fight among themselves for succession. Finally, the fourth son Shaharul took power.

However, Shaharul was more like a literati Persian king than an ambitious and typical steppe conqueror like his father. He limited his ruling area to Central Asia and eastern Persia, focusing on stabilization.

National order, development of production, and reward culture are not very concerned about conquering the east and west. Even the title was changed from "Khan" to the Persian "Shah".

Shaharul was not very concerned about western Persia, the Caucasus and the Mediterranean coast. In these places, the forces that had been defeated by Timur were growing again.

Compared with Timur, the Persians prefer Shaharul and think he is a more noble and enlightened ruler. But for the Purple Horde Khanate, the trouble is big now - whether it is Ottoman or Mamluk, although it is temporarily

It was in decline, but it was not a fuel-efficient lamp. Shaharul ran away directly and threw all the huge pressure on the Purple Horde Khanate.

In Egypt, although it promised to open its ports to the Khanate, the new Mamluk regime still hoped to make as much money as possible. With the reduction of military pressure, the Mamluks began to try to regain control of trade routes and seaports. The Purple Tent Expedition alone

With the army, it is already the limit to protect northern Syria. Therefore, the Khan's court urgently needs new allies to support itself.

Although Java is far away, it is also a big maritime country. Moreover, both sides have similar requirements for trade routes. Therefore, there is a basis for cooperation.

Sun Shiwan is a very influential figure in the Purple Horde Khan. When he came this time, everyone was very attentive to his reception, in order to form practical cooperation as soon as possible and reopen trade routes.

Invited by Tuohuan, Sun Shiwan came to the St. Sophia Temple soon. However, Lama Wang pointed out that it was not appropriate to ask him to negotiate terms too directly. He suggested arranging a visit and banquet first, and then follow the instructions of the Central Plains

Tradition, talk while eating.

Everyone had no objections to this. Tuhuan asked Guo Kang to help receive him, so that there would be time to arrange follow-up activities. Lama Wang sent Wu Han to help Guo Kang, saying that if he had more professional questions, he could answer them.

Guo Kang felt a little guilty about this. Judging from Wu Han's famous saying that "the church is like a sheep herder", he may have some understanding, but not that much. However, the priests here are all under the control of Wang Da Lama, and the person he recommended was Guo Kang.

Kang couldn't say anything, so he could only follow him to greet him.

On the way, Guo Kang finally couldn't hold it back and asked proactively: "What position do you hold here with Master Wang?"

"My subordinate was sent here to study." Wu Han still kept a straight face and replied seriously: "Master Wang said that after completing these studies, he will recommend his subordinate to go to the border area and serve as a local priest."

"Being the Patriarch..." Guo Kang felt that Lama Wang had positioned himself as a benchmark for "Orthodox experts." He lived a leisurely life in Dadu because according to Eastern Roman tradition, the Patriarch was originally

It is not the position of a theological expert.

The organization in the church is quite mature, with specialized institutions and a large group of theologians who are responsible for theological issues, such as explaining the meaning of Scripture to believers, or debating Scripture with the Bishop of Rome. Under this structure, most of the

The Patriarch himself didn't understand theology, so there was actually no problem - the eunuchs and patriarchs of Eastern Rome at that time didn't even know how to read. Lama Wang at least knew Braille and could do magic, which was already very powerful.

However, grassroots organizations often do not have this condition, so it is best for the local person in charge to be more versatile. The religious situation in the territory of the Roman Khanate is very complex, and I don’t know if Wu Han’s level is enough.

"How did you gain during this period of further study?" Guo Kang was embarrassed to question directly, so he started to inquire.

"I have learned a lot. Master Wang taught me a lot of tricks, and now I can show the image of Heavenly Father and Brother Heavenly on the wall." Wu Han said very proudly.

"Um..." Guo Kang was speechless for a moment: "Is there anything more practical?"

"Of course." Wu Han nodded.

The two happened to walk through a gate, and Wu Han took him out. On the platform outside, there were several haystacks for training and a lot of weapons piled up. He didn't know what Lama Wang was doing.

Just as he was thinking about it, Wu Han picked up a chain hammer and waved it at the armor stand next to him. The stand broke with a bang and the armor pieces fell to the floor. Wu Han picked up one of the pieces and saw that the armor had been beaten.

Transformed.

"Master said that when preaching, this is enough." He said seriously.

"Then I think that's enough." Guo Kang nodded decisively.

The two of them continued walking towards the hall. When they came to the door, they heard a loud voice asking loudly: "Why don't you have any concubines in your empress temple?"
