At this moment, the arena has long been a sea of people. Noble characters have not appeared, but they can't make the audience bored. The person in charge of the arena has arranged a beast fighting performance.
In fact, in the early days, the arena was indeed called the Colosseum. At the beginning, it was also a struggle between man and beast. There was no mistake in calling the Colosseum.
The animal fighting program being performed is a team against the lion.
There are five people in this team, two are swords and shields, one is fishing net and harpoon, and the other two are holding long handled heavy axes.
They seem to have cooperated for a long time. Basically, the sword shield and the long handled heavy axe form a group. The two groups cooperate with provocation or attack the male lion. The single player with fishing net and harpoon has been cruising all the time.
Whenever the team members are in danger, or the lion is attacked by the team members, the audience in the arena will cheer.
In order to get cheers, the Gladiator of the beast fights all kinds of death. For example, the sword and shield hand can obviously avoid the claws of the male lion, but he just puts on the posture of raising the shield for defense. Next, people fly backward when they are patted. It seemed very dangerous. In fact, he was not hurt. He was borne by the shield.
Death also requires skills. Some extremely dangerous things gladiators can't do. It seems that the male lion must avoid it when he pounces. Otherwise, he will be knocked down and pressed under his body by the male lion, even if he is not killed by the full mouth of sharp teeth. People will be knocked down and pressed under their body by the weight of hundreds of kilograms, and then torn by the sharp claw. They will really die.
Bursts of cheers spread to the lobby of the banquet, but the people were not attracted at all. Now they can abandon unimportant things and focus on upcoming major events, such as the follow-up intention of the Han embassy to send Helena's suit.
Wang Meng only made this move after consulting with the senior level of the diplomatic mission. He just sent a trivial signal that it was impossible for him to ask for a marriage. After all, the exchanges between countries need to take the initiative, and the party who speaks first will lose the initiative.
There are some things that Wang Meng can do. When he saw that Helena was wearing a Chinese suit, he motioned Cai Mian to talk.
Helena blushed like apple when she knew she was wearing the wrong clothes. She reluctantly accepted Cai Mian's suggestion that the maid of the Han country should correct it.
Not all the Han envoys were men, and twenty women accompanied them. Their sources are somewhat complicated, including female officials from the great inner palace and maidens carried by the high-level envoys themselves.
The size of the entire mission is nearly 3000, with only 20 women. You can imagine how rare it is. Each is protected as a treasure. There is no need to be exposed to the public at all.
After a trip to Persian sassanne, the number of Han envoys increased again and again, especially the number of women. Later, it evolved into a Han woman to manage the maids sent by Persian sassanne and the female slaves bought.
What kind of temperament this person has depends entirely on whether she has power (money). A beautiful woman, but she wears ordinary clothes and doesn't behave well. The impression will only be rustic.
Ordinary looking women, who dress appropriately and are full of self-confidence, are bound to get extra points for their impression.
Any Han woman in the mission, even if she was introverted and shy before, will become confident and give the impression of being at least generous after having management experience.
There is no doubt that the debut of Han women was amazing to the Romans. They were dressed appropriately as court maids and showed self-confidence in their words and deeds. They were not only different from Roman women in dress, but also excited by the sense of curiosity. The two completely different customs extremely attracted the Romans.
Helena, who left to correct the necessary mistakes, appeared again. Her appearance this time was far more eye-catching than the last time.
It was a kind of momentum and momentum entrusted by the Han women. Then, Helena got a short Han etiquette instruction just now and learned what kind of pace she should walk in Han clothes. It was the person or the person who caused it, but everyone saw that Helena was like a different person.
Han women wear formal clothes. They never swing their arms when walking, and they don't walk too wide. The correct way to walk is to put your arms on your lower abdomen and step on small steps. You can raise your head slightly when necessary. The whole posture is full of the beauty precipitated by etiquette.
"This is my Helena?" Constantius II was really surprised. He looked at Helena's changed hairstyle and looked at the beautiful pony bun hairstyle. When he saw the jewelry with not simple production technology, he couldn't help praising: "it's so beautiful!"
The hair style of ponytail was popular in the Western Han Dynasty. For a long time, it has become the mainstream of women's hair style, especially the favorite of noble women. First, it keeps up with the fashion, and then the ponytail can accommodate more hair accessories.
On the Roman side, men basically have short hair, which can be short, mostly small broken hair; Women, like other nationalities, have the habit of long hair. They don't want to bother to wear their hair. That is, they pay attention to wearing braids of various patterns, especially with multiple long braids.
Helena compared her long braided hair style with ponytail, and then took a look at Helena's beautiful ponytail, which was burning with jealousy.
Constantius II thought the heat was coming, went to Wang Meng and asked, "Han envoy, is my Hailin Nami?"
"Yes, under the crown of the great Qin Dynasty." Wang Meng didn't violate his heart: "in terms of the Han's aesthetics, Princess Helena is really beautiful."
"She is the apple of my eye." Constantius II was obviously very happy to get the answer he wanted: "it is also a treasure of Rome."
This is different from what Wang Meng learned. What he knows is that Helena has always been a marginal figure, even hated by Constantius II. However, the fact is that it doesn't matter what's going on. You can play happily only if you are polite. Telling the truth is obvious.
There was no mistake for Wang Meng to call Constantius II "under the crown". After Constantine I, Augustus of Rome usually wore a crown on his head on formal occasions. There is no "Majesty" on the throne of Rome, not even the steps. What do you call it if you don't call it under the crown.
So far, the title of "crown" is not specifically used to address the clergy. It has to be reformed by the later Christians and Christians. For example, learning from Augustus, they also make some "crowns" to wear.
There is another thing, ji1 Du1 religion has not designed human angels... Either the messenger of the son of heaven or the bird man with wings. They don't even have the name angel now, but some "angels" have been designed.
Early angels and angels after the Renaissance are two different things, and early angels come from some Greek myths, usually some strange images, such as animal bodies and a face, or even no face. Modern Angel images are the products after the Renaissance.
It must be said that early angels had their own names or codes, which were not uniformly called angels.
The arrival of the Han embassy surprised countless races and gave unparalleled imagination. The first inspiration was the sassanne side of Persia.
For example, Zoroastrians feel that the holy fire makes them listen less than angels, so do they change their name?
Arabs, Cypriots, Gypsies, Jews... These people who do not have their own country or even their own religion. They have seen the privilege of the angel of the Han Dynasty and heard of the power of the distant Han Empire. They admire the name "angel" and will play a key role in subsequent historical events.
There is no doubt that the other side who was extremely shocked was the Jidu 1 religion, which had a direct conflict with the Han embassy. They saw the fearlessness and fearlessness of the Han envoy, experienced extreme self-confidence, constantly slandered and scolded in their mouth, but they yearned for those qualities in their hearts. They almost subconsciously believed that we should have such people, if such people could not appear, We illusory such a one or a group.
For ji1 Du1 religion, its own belief is based on "virtual". The "Lord" can constantly supplement and improve, and then invent a group of non-existent but beautiful creatures, which is nothing at all.
At this moment, the issue of how to make up a group of great creatures was repeatedly launched before the arrival of the Han embassy. The emergence of the Han envoy brightened the eyes of those people, and the quality they wanted was greatly supplemented by Wang Meng. I don't know what it means to be stubborn. They think the envoys of the son of heaven are angels, so our "Lord" should also have angels, or infinity. (don't take it seriously)
In the lobby, the invited clergy always stayed in the corner. Most of the time they watched the Han people's every move in silence. Only occasionally did a few people communicate.
"Since the Han people came to Constantinople, they have always held the greatest initiative, and everyone, including Augustus, has become a foil."
"Yes, like now, Helena just put on Han clothes and has become the focus of the whole audience."
They didn't want to do anything more. Instead of counseling, all the nobles who had interests entangled with them made a statement. The Han people may be hateful, but the wealth of the Han people is not hateful. At present, the most important thing is to obtain goods from the Han people, resell them to all parts of the world, and create their own wealth.
For the Romans who had no sense of honor for a long time, in order to obtain benefits, let alone patience or restraint, even if they really recognized counseling, it was nothing. I don't know how many Romans heard the news and had the idea of changing their faith in order not to be excluded from this feast.
Once the Han people have made it clear that they do not welcome the Christian Church (including believers), with the urine of the current Romans, whether they believe in the Christian Church will usher in a great recession? In order to avoid such a thing, bishop childe's task today is to defuse the hostility with the Han people. For this reason, he specially invited marus utansis, who has friendship with most senior Han officials, as an intermediary.
On the other side, Constantius II has been guiding the topic, but Wang Meng seems to be unable to understand, so he has nothing to say, not to mention how depressed Constantius II is.
Helena has a new change. No matter what her internal emotion is, she shows a full Roman lady style. She occasionally makes a conversation. Every sentence is inseparable from her praise and longing for the Han country.
Julian, who acts as a translator, is suffering all the time. He can't guarantee that the other Romans present can't speak Chinese. In addition, his Chinese is only limited to ordinary communication. He can't give some profound hints. He can only continue to suffer.
Constantius II, who failed to achieve his goal, wisely changed the subject and asked, "did Julian inform you before?"
Thanks to Wang Meng's ability of thinking dissemination, otherwise he would be asked by such an abrupt sentence. He didn't beat around the Bush and said, "Persians shouldn't appear. No matter what form the big man takes, there's no problem at all."
In order not to further stimulate the Romans, the Persians have been on board now.
"So..." Constantius II looked at gallus, as if to indicate or hint something, and then looked at Wang Meng again: "in order to have a wonderful performance, we include individual war and group war."
Wang Meng smiled and said, "Han people don't mind showing their brave side."
Constantius II was even more unhappy this time.
It's reasonable that the Han people came to the capital of Rome. Peter's words are no matter how ugly. The Han people broke out directly in other people's capital, especially those who didn't kill any basic 1 supervisor 1 religion. They were all Roman soldiers.
The war in other people's capital without any hesitation led to chaos in the whole capital, that is, Constantius II can bear it, but anyone's patience has a limit.
There are many reasons why Constantius II chose to be patient. From the perspective of sitting on the throne of Augustus, he did not want the Han state to really become an iron alliance with Persian sassanne. The other thing is that it is conducive to his suppression of Christianity and Christianity, and more importantly, the benefits brought by trade.
Face is given to each other. Constantius II thinks he has given face very much. How can Wang Meng lower his head a little.
"It seems that only by giving the most blood will the Han people wake up!" Constantius II said to gallus almost gnashing his teeth: "all the people in Constantinople are on your list of choices. You must kill all the Han people in the arena!"
Gallus saluted "yes", but looked at Julian.
Julian nodded heavily in response to gallus. He needed to please the Han people to achieve some of his goals, but he also thought that the current way of communication was unreasonable.
