Tenth day, early morning.

At this time, the sky had not yet cleared, and a large number of people gathered outside the gate of the capital.

These people dressed strangely and looked different.Some are blonde and some are red-haired and brown-eyed.

They have different behaviors, different languages, and great differences, but the only thing they have in common is:

They looked respectful and solemn, no matter how rough their appearance looked, they were still standing respectfully at this moment, forming a long line on the official road.

On the tower, the young guard asked the older guard beside him:
"Captain, who are they?"

The older guard glared at him: "Stinky boy, do you know what to ask? Don't you know who they are? Don't you have a cousin who works in the household department?"

The young guard rubbed the back of his head and smiled: "My cousin has been transferred away. Besides, for this kind of thing, I still have to listen to the captain. Who doesn't know that the captain is a well-known bag in the capital?"

"Don't put a high hat on me!" The older guard glared at him, but there was still a look of satisfaction in his eyes:

"Such a big thing, don't you know?"

The young guard's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he hurried up and said, "Don't you want to trouble the captain for something?"

The older guard glanced at him, then looked around, then whispered:
"Today is the day of the court."

The young guard blinked, and asked inexplicably, "Going to court? Isn't it a common thing to go to court? What does it have to do with these foreigners?"

The old guard glared at him: "You usually look very clever, why did you ask such a stupid question? Can today's court meeting be the same as usual?"

The young guard's expression changed, and he asked in a low voice: "Captain, do you mean that it is Emperor Tianyuan who is going to court today?"

After Jia Jue came to the throne, his reign title was "Tianyuan".

"Nonsense! Otherwise, who else would it be!" The captain gave him a hard look.

The young guard smiled awkwardly, and asked quickly:
"I just don't know, what does the Holy Majesty have to do with these foreigners?"

"You idiot!" The captain approached him and said in a low voice, "This is the first time the Holy Majesty has come to the pilgrimage, so these are naturally here to make the pilgrimage to see His Majesty!"

The young guard suddenly realized: "So that's it! These people turned out to be special envoys from other countries."

"Stupid! You kid can't figure out something that the common people understand!" The captain glared at him and pouted in the direction of the city.

The young guard looked over, but saw that the capital was already crowded with people, and on the way to the imperial city, it was even more crowded.

"In normal times, where would there be so many people?" The young guard sighed with emotion, "Only His Majesty's affairs will make the people so concerned."

The captain nodded, with a look of admiration on his face: "This is a matter of course. Your Majesty has made great contributions to the great man, the world, and the country. It is only natural that the common people love him."

The young guard nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty is the greatest and most wise emperor we have seen in thousands of years."

The captain also nodded without hesitation.

"Captain, it's time, open the door?"

At this time, the soldiers under the city asked the captain.

The captain looked at the sky and asked, "Did Honglu Temple ever send a roster?"

"Someone sent it just now."

"Okay, check and compare them one by one, there must be no omissions!" shouted the captain.

The soldiers below responded, and then shouted: "Open the city gate!"

Following the sound of drinking, the city gate slowly opened.

And the foreign visitors waiting outside the city suddenly regained their spirits, their eyes were fixed on the city gate, and they were about to surround them.

There are even many people who have gathered around and want to rush over when the city gate is opened. There are many hostile ones, and even because of the location, they have already started pushing and shoving, gradually showing signs of conflict.

At this moment, the captain took a deep breath and shouted loudly:
"No chaos, those who are called by name, enter the city one by one! Anyone who disturbs the order will be severely punished!"

Hearing this sentence, the commotion crowd suddenly fell silent.

One by one obediently stopped the movements of their hands and feet, and began to line up honestly.

"Captain, you are so majestic, you can make these barbarians behave honestly and obediently with just one sentence." The young guard praised this scene.

The captain shook his head slowly, and said meaningfully:

"You're wrong. It's not me who is majestic, and it's not me who makes them bow their heads."

The young guard hesitated slightly:
"What does the captain mean?"

"I mean, it's not me who is majestic, and it's not me who they fear, but His Majesty standing behind us!" The captain looked in the direction of the imperial city and sighed.

The young guard sighed long, his face full of awe:
"That's right, it's all because of His Majesty. Without him, we big men would be in purgatory on earth right now, and we might have been reduced to a pile of dry bones."

The captain didn't speak, but there was a trace of awe in his eyes.

Without Jia Jue, the Sassanian Dashi and the invasion of dozens of small countries, they would definitely not be able to stop it. The fall of the capital is inevitable, and as the guards of the city gate, living and dying with the city gate is the only ending.

Jia Jue really saved their lives.

"Where is the Special Envoy of Wusun Kingdom?" At this time, the gate of the city was opened, and a large number of guards poured out. One of them came to the team of those foreign special envoys, and compared the list and shouted.

"My lord, we are here!" A tall foreign man stood up and replied.

"Certificate of Credence, document!" the guard shouted rudely.

The man quickly brought the letter of credence and documents, and handed them over with a respectful expression.

After the guard verified it, he said to him, "Five of you can enter the city."

"Ah? My lord, we, we are not just five envoys, not to mention there are so many gifts." The special envoy of the Wusun Kingdom said in surprise.

A large number of envoys, not to mention all kinds of clerical work, just a lot of salutes, gifts, requires a lot of manpower.

It is indeed not enough for only five people to enter the city.

"I'm sorry, the capital has been infested with contacts recently, and good and bad people are mixed together, that's the only way to go, please be considerate." The guard replied.

Before Special Envoy Wusun could speak, a man not far away said in a strange tone:
"My lord, we are willing to go in!"

Wusun's special envoy nodded immediately without saying a word, appointed five people, and went into the city.

On the tower, the guards watching this scene laughed.

The young guard looked at the dark crowd and asked the old guard:

"Captain, how many special envoys from many countries have you visited this time? Over a hundred?"

"More than a hundred? This is..." The captain raised his eyes and looked into the distance, then smiled faintly,
"All nations come to court!"
