Datang romantic little landlord

In Chang'an West Market, although there are various orchids for sale, there are few European women.

The main reason is that the distance is too far away, and it is not a good deal to sell women from distant Europe to Datang.Most of the orchids in Chang'an West Market are women from Central Asia, West Asia or even South Asia.

And these orchids entering Datang must apply for entry and exit at the border gates, and must provide attached coupons.When entering Chang'an City, one must also register with the county government.

Therefore, Aphrodite was brought into Chang'an by the Sogdian caravan, and it was registered in the Chang'an county government. The subordinate officials in Chang'an county were indeed aware of this matter.

Milliman still shook his head, with a little impatience in his tone: "It is true that there was a female slave of Daqin in my Zoroastrianism, but she died of a sudden illness a few days ago."

"You..." Hearing that Milriman denied it flatly, he opened his eyes and spoke nonsense.Cheng Chuliang couldn't help being anxious, and just about to accuse Milman of lying, he was stopped by his brother at the side.

Only then did he realize that everyone agreed to the shopkeeper of the barbarian restaurant and never reveal the hidden truth.If he questioned Milliman's lying, it would be tantamount to betraying the barbarian shopkeeper.

Seeing that Sabao Milman denied it categorically, even uttering the excuse of sudden death, Li Wangyou was also speechless.

Facing the political and religious leaders of the Sogdians, even the dandies could only ask for help, but no matter how Li Wangyou and the dandies made various requests and expressed their willingness to pay for the redemption, Milman dismissed them with the death of the female slave. .

Where have all the dandies been exposed to this kind of anger, if they were not concerned about the influence of Zoroastrianism, they would have already become agitated.

Seeing this, Li Wangyou could only say a few perfunctory words, but reluctantly bid farewell to a group of dudes and left the Zoroastrian Temple.

"Sister, this Milman won't cry until he sees the coffin! He's talking nonsense!" Cheng Chumo lashed his horsewhip against the wall as soon as he left the gate of the Zoroastrian Temple, angrily yelling.

Fang Yiai also had an angry expression on her face: "Ziyou, what are you going to do now? This Sabao Miriman is really a bastard if he doesn't get involved!"

"If you want me to say, it's better to snatch that Orchid away! Do they still dare to report to the officials?" Yuchi Baolin's words made a group of dudes nod repeatedly, which was in line with their thinking.

But Li Wangyou shook his head: "If this is the case, I'm afraid things will get serious, and it's hard to guarantee that the Sogdians won't go to the court to file a complaint, and that will hurt the brothers. How can I make things difficult for the brothers for myself."

What he said is the truth, using force to rob people will cause endless troubles.

Not to mention that after taking Aphrodite back, her identity problem is difficult to solve.It is said that after the Zoroastrianism suffered a loss, it would definitely entangle the Sogdians to make troubles and ask the court to deal with the dudes. At that time, Cheng Chumo and others would definitely be affected to a certain extent.

Cheng Chumo scolded angrily: "This group of damned profiteers, the nine surnames Hu are not good people! The court should issue an order to arrest all these nine surnames Hu!"

"Neither left, nor right, Ziyou, what do you think we should do? Is this the way to go?"

The dandies are furious now, and now it's not just a matter of Li's young man wanting to buy a slave girl, but they feel that their face has been swept to the ground by Milliman.

If they let it go, this group of dandies will be very angry, and they will lose face to Zoroastrianism.

For the dandies, the world is big and the face is the biggest.The Zoroastrian Sabao doesn't take them seriously, if the news gets out, how will they gain a foothold in Chang'an City in the future?

Li Wangyou was also speechless for a while, silently watching the flames in the copper tripod on the fire altar of the Zoroastrian Temple not far away, carefully calculating how to break the situation.

The reason why things become so complicated has to start with Aphrodite's identity.

According to the information learned by the shopkeeper of the barbarian restaurant, this female slave named Aphrodite is not an ordinary person, but the daughter of a nobleman from the Byzantine Empire.

Between the Byzantine Empire and the Persian Empire, several wars broke out between the two sides for a hundred years.A few years ago, the Persian Empire sent troops to attack Byzantium again, and the Fifth Persian-Byzantine War broke out.

At the beginning of the war, the Persians broke into the Byzantine Empire, captured the city of Chalcedon, and began to besiege Constantinople.

And this noble girl named Aphrodite was captured when the city of Chalcedon was captured by the Persians. At that time, the girl was only twelve or thirteen years old.

However, the subsequent war ended in the defeat of Persia, and the Persians lost.

They need to return the Byzantine territory they occupied in the past, release the prisoners of war, return the "Holy Cross" looted from Jerusalem, return all the property looted from Byzantium, and pay back several years of military expenses.

The Persians, who became angry from embarrassment, took their anger out on Aphrodite.He lied to the Byzantine Empire that she had died in battle, secretly sold her to the Sogdians, and let the Sogdians traffic her to the distant Eastern Empire.

And asked the Sogdians to degrade her into a prostitute, so as to humiliate the Byzantine Empire and vent the anger of the losers.

The Persians and the Sogdians believed in the same religion, and Sapao of the Sogdians naturally complied with the demands of the Persians.

So poor Aphrodite became a victim of the war between the two sides, and was forced to travel tens of thousands of kilometers with the caravan of the Sogdians. It took a year and a half to come to Datang from distant Europe.

Sabao Miliman of Chang'an gave the girl to the shopkeeper of a barbarian restaurant, and asked him to train the girl well, send her out to pick up customers, and become a prostitute.

In this regard, the barbarian shopkeeper naturally did not dare to disobey.

So when Cheng Chumo offered to buy an orchid girl, he flatly refused.

He can't decide this matter at all, and he just obeys Sabao Miliman.

In order to save Aphrodite, apart from directly snatching Aphrodite as Yuchi Pauline said, the only way is to force Milman to let go.

Li Wangyou looked at the holy fire burning in the Zoroastrian temple, and suddenly asked without thinking: "What do you say if the holy fire in the Zoroastrian temple goes out?"

"If it's extinguished, it's extinguished, at worst, use the fire book to light it again." Chai Lingwu replied angrily.

Wei Shuyu was so angry that he slapped him on the head: "Do you think it's your kitchen fire? If the holy fire in this Zoroastrian temple goes out, I'm afraid these Sogdians will go crazy."

He has some understanding of Zoroastrianism, and he knows that the holy fire in this Zoroastrian temple is the lifeblood of these Sogdians. Once it is extinguished, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Li Wangyou suddenly smiled, showing his eight white teeth: "Brothers, I have a solution! Let's go, let's go get ready, turn around and let Milriman kneel down, and bring Aphrodite to me!"

Wei Shuyu hurriedly stopped Li Wangyou.

"Ziyou, you can't mess around. You don't want to extinguish the holy fire of this Zoroastrian temple to blackmail the Sogdians, do you? This will cause serious trouble."

Li Wangyou smiled and said: "Hey, I really have this plan. But don't worry, Brother Shuyu, the Sogdians can't make trouble, because I will let the flame go out by itself. No matter how angry they are, they can't blame others superior."

"What? How is this possible? How can a good flame go out by itself?" Wei Shuyu pointed to the believers in the Zoroastrian temple: "These priests are always watching over the flame, adding fuel at any time, how can it go out by itself? Ziyou, don't make trouble! "

Wei Shuyu's questioning made Li Wangyou smile even more happily.

"Brother Shuyu, brothers, why don't we make a bet?"

"What are you gambling?"

"Bet I can make the flame go out out of thin air. If I can do it, you have to do me a favor. If I can't, I'll treat everyone to a restaurant for lunch today, how about it?"

Li Wangyou raised this condition, but it made all the dudes stunned.

"Ziyou, are you afraid you didn't fan the flame with your hand? Or blow it out? That doesn't count." Fang Yiai yelled.

"Of course not, I definitely won't."

The dudes looked at each other, but they didn't believe what Li Wangyou said.

"Just bet, Ziyou, if you can really extinguish the flame out of thin air, the brothers will accompany you for a while." Cheng Chumo laughed loudly.

Li Wangyou snapped his fingers: "Then let's go, I'll prepare some things first, so that you can see my skills."

Everyone laughed and went to the West Market, Li Wangyou found a grocery store, went in and bought two things mysteriously, and put them in his arms.
