In the quiet room, the envoy of Nanzhao was still talking to Gu Qing. The maid on the side carefully poured the tea. Listening to the sound of the tea falling into the cup, the envoy of Nanzhao thought about Gu Qing's words and wanted to include the students of Nanzhao as the Tang Dynasty households. He hesitated and said: "I'm afraid... I can't agree now, I want to discuss it with our king."

"I can understand." Gu Qing picked up the tea and blew the tea leaves floating in the tea. "Then wait for the news from your king to consider the Nanzhao students entering the academy."

"Slowly!" said the envoy of Nanzhao again, "Dare you ask the marquis, can the students of Nanzhao really return to Nanzhao after entering the Tang Dynasty school? "

"Of course, that's OK." Gu Qing said again, "It's just that you need permission. If you allow them to return to your Nanzhao at what time, you can naturally go back."

Gu Qing knew the thoughts of this envoy of Nanzhao, so he asked the students of Nanzhao to study in the Central Plains and use the knowledge they learned to build Nanzhao.

"We can pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty, but I hope the marquis will take care of the students' affairs."

Gu Qing nodded, "The academy will take good care of them."

"I'll say goodbye first." The envoy of Nanzhao left with a nervous heart.

The room became quiet again. Gu Qing came to his study and took out a map, which marked the names of some small countries.

Draw a circle on the south coast of Nanzhao, and draw a line to connect to the east coast of the Tang Dynasty.

Wu Mei walked over in a small stroll, "Husband, His Highness, King of Jin and Princess Jinyang have all gone to bed."

Gu Qing waved to Wu Mei to come to her side, "Can you understand the text on this picture?"

Wu Mei shook her head and looked at the marked words. In the past, Gu Qing often wrote typos. Although he was sloppy, he could see that the strokes and strokes of the typos were very regular. At first glance, it looked like another type of text. He hesitated and said, "Husband, is this another type of text?"

"That's right!" Gu Qing said in his arms, "This is the word in my memory. It will never be forgotten in my life if it penetrates deep into the bone marrow."

Wu Mei lifted the pen beside her and wrote it imitated with her sleeves. After the ink was dry, she found that the writing was written smoothly in regular manner. Every stroke seemed to be simplified after precipitation. Some of the shadows of Tang Dynasty literature were more charming.

It was not like a random word, Wu Mei was puzzled, "What do you pronounce the word "Husband?"

"This word is called Hua." Gu Qing whispered.

"Hua?" Wu Mei was puzzled and wrote the signature on paper again using the Hua of the Tang Dynasty. The two fonts were arranged together.

"What did you find?" Gu Qing looked at Wu Mei.

Looking closely, Wu Mei looked very curious, "It seems to be simplified from traditional Chinese, but it retains some outlines."

"This is a simplified Chinese character." Gu Qing said in Wu Mei's ear, "I am the only one in the Tang Dynasty. I will teach you and our children slowly in the future."

"Husband." Wu Mei put away her pen, "Will this kind of writing be the family education of our Gu family in the future?"

"So that's it." Gu Qing smiled and nodded.

Wu Mei practiced every stroke and found that every stroke of this kind of handwriting can be written very powerfully. The strokes are simple but very neat. It makes people feel comfortable when they look for no reason.

After dinner, Sun Simiao walked home, looked at the pair of figures under the candlelight in the window, nodded and walked into his small room with a smile.

In the study, Gu Qing took out a new map of the Tang Dynasty and began to draw roads to the Tang Dynasty among various small countries.

Wu Mei has been with Gu Qing. When Gu Qing looked back late at night, she saw that she was already asleep against the lounge chair. She picked up the mink stall on the side and carefully covered her. She picked her up so that she could continue to think about the trade routes between countries and the Tang Dynasty from the bed in the study.

Until the sun shines on his face, Wu Mei opened it and saw Gu Qing still studying the map. She sat up and said, "Husband, haven't slept all night?"

"It's already done." Gu Qing looked at the business roads.

Wu Mei looked at Gu Qing's drawings for a long time, "Husband, are these business ways?"

"That's right!" Gu Qing nodded, "Although the Tang Dynasty had foreign trade and had trade deals with those small countries, the number of exchanges was not much."

Wu Mei also understood what Gu Qing meant to walk out of the study.

When Di Renjie saw Wu Mei coming out, he was eating fried dough sticks in his mouth, "Master's wife."

"You go to the inn to inform the envoys that the county guards will meet them." Wu Mei said to him.

"Yeah! Students are going now." Di Renjie nodded, ate a fried dough stick and took a few boiled eggs.

Li Zhi glanced at Di Renjie's bowl of meat porridge was empty and muttered, "How could this guy be so edible?"

"The emperor has eaten a lot, too." The four-year-old little whisper, holding a bowl of porridge and drinking it well.

Wu Mei smiled slightly. When she grew up, she remembered that she and Gu Qing were at their age. Living in a dilapidated Taoist temple was very difficult, but she had also walked along the way.

Di Renjie rode his horse to Chang'an slowly, and said something to the inn and envoys from various countries, and returned to Dali Temple.

Since Gu Qing took over the reception of envoys from various countries, he has always left the envoys from various countries aside. This time he finally said he was going to receive them.

Li Chengqian also received the news and hurried to the Gu family.

In the Chang'an Palace, Li Ergang got off the court and heard Wang Qin's report, "Have Gu Qing finally started to meet the envoys of various countries?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Wang Qin bowed and replied, "Before, the envoys of Goguryeo, Japan, and Nanzhao all went to meet Gu Qing, which could only be considered as meeting privately. This time, Gu County waited for formal invitation."

"How is the prince?" Li Er nodded and asked.

"After that day, His Majesty handed over the reception of envoys from various countries to Gu Qing, the prince was drunk." Wang Qin whispered, "I met Duke Zhao, and then the prince went to listen to a meeting between Gu Qing and envoys from various countries. This time, His Royal Highness also went."

There was not much surprise in Li Er's eyes, but there was a little more loss.

Wang Qin also understood in his heart when he saw Li Er's expression that the prince still did not satisfy His Majesty. Although he was not a big mistake now, he was still too reserved and cautious in his words and deeds, and he had always been very vague about his own opinions. If it was the prince's own idea to listen to this matter, it would be fine, but the prince did so after listening to Changsun Wuji's words.
