The gifts on Bar, Kna and Bahravi were already a little old. This was the only homely clothing they had retained. They were originally worn when they participated in some important occasions and were pressed on the bottom of the box for more than two years. The insect ant left some marks on the dress. Although Kna used her superb needlework and threading technology to make them less conspicuous, she could not hide their current embarrassment.

Bahravi sat down, while Barr and Kna stood behind him. This was what they insisted on.

In Haixing, Bahravi played their son, but when he arrived, Bahravi was their master.

Bar didn't know whether it was a happy event or a disaster to meet the emperor of this huge empire when he came to Jin. However, now it can only leave it to fate.

This is a fact that they cannot change.

The size of the Tang Empire was far beyond Barr's original imagination. When they first arrived in Haixing, they were shocked. Haixing's prosperity was far inferior to that of the city-state under the rule of Grand Duke Pahlavi.

After living in Haixing for several years, they had language barriers and their movements were restricted. They could not understand too much about what kind of country the Tang Dynasty was. It was not until Bahravi, who finally learned some Tang language and could read and communicate with people normally, that they had a holistic concept of this empire.

And these are thanks to the Tang Dynasty Weekly.

When he was in his hometown, Barr claimed to be an upper class person and literacy was of course one of the most basic privileges of the upper class. But in Haixing, when he was surprised to see some ordinary people, such as farmers carrying loads, coachmen driving carriages, and waiters in restaurants, who would also read the newspaper with the Tang Dynasty Weekly newspaper, he could hardly believe his eyes.

Of course, Bar did not know that since more than ten years ago, the Tang Dynasty under Li Ze's rule began a series of literacy movements. Most of the young people are now literate, and children are forced to enter the school hall. Once they join the army, literacy is a necessary skill. Many experienced soldiers have to retire because they are not promoted because they are illiterate. In such a general environment, the literacy rate is increasing at an extremely fast speed in the Tang Dynasty.

Thanks to the advanced nature of Chinese characters, as long as you can recognize hundreds or thousands of men, you can read thick newspapers roughly without any obstacles. Even if you don’t recognize some words, you can guess a rough idea based on the meaning of the context. Reading newspapers and obtaining news can in turn stimulate everyone’s literacy rate.

This kind of cultural advancement is something that Latin words can never be imitated or learned.

The Tang Weekly Daily published many court policies. Whenever Bahravi was reading the above articles, Barr could only remain silent. The information obtained from the Tang Weekly Daily made him know that the means of this empire ruling the country was completely different from his hometown.

From the weekly newspaper of the Tang Dynasty, he also had a brief glimpse of the general shape of this empire. The size of the Tang Dynasty empire exceeded his imagination. These were inferred from some logistical transportation information and the speed of arrival of goods that he inadvertently revealed in the newspaper.

Now, the south of this empire has not yet surrendered to the emperor. If the south is unified, the empire will be even larger.

But even so, in the past two years, Barr has clearly realized how huge and powerful this empire is.

When he arrived in Chang'an, the majestic city walls pressed him out of breath.

As he traveled through the spacious streets, the bustling street scene made him feel ashamed.

He suddenly realized that the identity of Grand Duke Pahlavi, which he was proud of, seemed nothing in the eyes of this imperial emperor. It was just a county, at most a prefecture. And the emperor here was too lazy to even appoint local officials of this size.

The emperor here seems to only appoint officials from the province or above.

Last night, they were told that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was going to meet them, which made Barr not fall asleep all night long. It was a blessing or a disaster, but it was actually just a thought of the emperor of this empire.

This morning, the three of them got up early and dressed up. Although the clothes were very old, they still had to be refreshed and not lose their etiquette and make people laugh.

After breakfast, a carriage sent them to the beautiful palace complex in front of them. As soon as they entered it, Barr became confused. After turning his son for a while, he almost lost his sense of direction, until he was finally sent into the small living room in front of him, waiting for the emperor's summons.

Ballevi couldn't help but want to walk out of the house several times, but they were all stopped by Barr.

It seems that the defense here is extremely relaxed, and there is not even a guard at the door, but the more such a place, the more vigilant it is. You must know that this is the place where the emperor of this huge imperial world lives. In peace, I don’t know how many eyes are watching them. If the words and deeds are a little out of order, they will probably cause a catastrophe.

Before they entered the room, several officials were already sitting in the room, including purple robes and red robes. Seeing Bar and the other two being brought in, they just glanced lightly, without any other statement.

This house is where I wait for the emperor to summon him.

Officials went in one after another, and officials left here one after another.

During the anxious waiting, a young official who walked in and out of the room stood in front of them.

"Your Majesty summoned me!" the young official said to them.

When they finally stood in front of the emperor of this empire, Barr felt relieved. At this point, there was no other unnecessary thoughts, or they were still number one in their hometown, but when they arrived here, they were afraid they were just like an ant in front of the supreme ruler here.

"I have seen the great, wise and wise Emperor of the Tang Empire!" According to the etiquette that Barr taught him yesterday, Ball took off his hat disrespectfully, bent down and bowed to Li Ze, and Barr and Kna also bent down deeply at the same time.

"No need to be too polite, get up! Lu Lin, let them sit and talk." A slightly lazy voice came from above. Barr raised his head and looked at Li Ze, and was slightly stunned.

Because His Majesty the Emperor looked a little exhausted at this moment, it was obvious that he had met many important officials of the Empire before. What made Barr's eyes light up was that His Majesty was holding a crystal clear glass cup in his hand, and the things in the cup were exactly what he was most familiar with, that was the beer he brewed himself.

What Barr may have imagined was that it was this beer that really prompted Li Ze to see them, not the identity of a grand prince he was proud of.

This identity may be of great use to Gao Xiangsheng, but for Li Ze, it is really nothing. So far, he has no idea of ​​making trouble on other continents.

The domestic questions made Li Ze very worried.

"Good wine!" Seeing Barr looking at the beer in his hand, Li Ze smiled and took a sip, saying, "Your skills are very authentic, which reminds me of many past events."

Lu Lin was slightly stunned and felt that the emperor was talking nonsense, so he stopped writing and did not record these sentences.

"If you like your dear Emperor, your humble servant, you are willing to brew more delicious beer for you." Barr stroked his chest and said, "Because of financial reasons, I cannot choose the best raw materials, so the brewed wine is really unsatisfactory."

Ballevi translated Barr's words to Li Ze.

"Little guy's Tang Yu is very good." Li Ze smiled and looked at Little Bahravi: "I heard that you have only been in the Tang Dynasty for more than two years. You can tell Tang Yu to this level. Is it really smart? Can you write it?"

"Yes!" Little Pahlavi nodded.

"Not bad!" Li Ze smiled and said, "Do you like the Tang Dynasty? Do you want to stay here forever?"

Little Ballevi was stunned for a moment and thought for a while before saying, "Although this place is very good, I still miss my hometown even more. I really want to go back, but Uncle Barr said I am too young and I have to grow up before I can go back."

"Go back to take revenge?" Li Ze looked at the other party playfully.

Both of them answered in Tang language, but Barr couldn't understand it. He just looked at Xiaoba Shiwei with some anxiety, for fear that he would say the wrong thing and cause disaster to the emperor.

Little Pahlavi was silent for a moment before nodding vigorously: "When I grow up, I will definitely go back to take revenge."

"Do you know that your enemy is now very powerful. As far as I know, he has gathered tens of thousands of troops and ruled nearly ten city-states, which is much stronger than your father at that time."

"I will work hard." Ballavi said hard.

Li Ze smiled and nodded, and picked up the wine glass again.

It was not until this moment that Barr was more important than finding an opportunity, and had a quick conversation with Bahravi, and then he knelt down to Li Ze.

"What do you want to do?" Li Zeke said.

"Uncle Barr said that the respected Emperor has a powerful force. As long as His Majesty is willing to send troops to help me revenge, then the Pahlavi family will remember His Majesty's kindness forever and become the most loyal ally of the Tang Empire." Pahlavi said.

Li Ze laughed: "Tell your uncle that it is not in the interests of our Tang Dynasty to travel across the ocean to fight. In fact, what you can give me, your enemies can also give me. Pahlavi, you have already sent envoys to land in Haixing."

After listening to Little Pahlavi's translation, Barr looked pale and his body shook: "Please give mercy on your mercy, don't hand Little Pahlavi to them."
