Chapter 571
Time passed quickly, and seven days passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, the city of Xianyang was decorated with lanterns and festoons, the common people talked and laughed, and there was a festive atmosphere everywhere.
The reason is simple, because today is the wedding day of Prince Ying Yu, the most prestigious figure in the Great Qin Dynasty, and Princess Sophie, the most beautiful person in Rome!
The strong alliance of the representative figures of the two great powers is undoubtedly a major event that is enough to cause a sensation in the entire Great Qin Dynasty, and even in the whole world.
And the common people in Xianyang City also gathered one by one, happily discussing the marriage between Daqin and Rome in various teahouses and restaurants.
"Hahaha, my Great Qin is really getting stronger and stronger."
"That's right, not only small countries like Tu'an and Loulan, but now even a big country like Rome has to succumb to my Great Qin's prestige and ask for peace with my Great Qin!"
"I've heard that Rome once had a glory spanning the continent. Many countries were headed by them, but it's a pity that it has now declined."
"You are wrong. As the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Although Rome is now in decline, it is still one of the top powers in the Western Regions. It is far from the Seleucid Kingdom in terms of territory and national strength. What can be compared with small countries such as China, Tu'an, etc., can be compared with one
A bunch of them. "
"Speaking of which, the reason why the royal family of the Seleucid Kingdom came to Daqin to ask for support was not precisely because they were facing the invasion of Rome, but in the end they were severely taught by our Daqin army!"
"Also, it is said that Princess Sophie has already fallen in love with His Highness the Crown Prince. It is her personal wish to marry His Highness the Crown Prince when she comes to Daqin this time."
"It is said that Princess Sophie is the most beautiful woman in Rome, and has countless suitors. I didn't expect to post it upside down after seeing His Royal Highness. It seems that our Royal Highness is really popular with women!
"What's so strange about this? His Royal Highness is a fairy-like figure. Not only is he outstandingly talented and noble, but he is even more handsome and suave. Let alone a woman, even an old man like me can't bear to look at him." Like it!"
"Then brother, you are more aggressive."
"However, what I said is indeed true. I am afraid that there will be no other such a perfect character except our Prince."
The people were discussing happily, and the more they talked, the more excited they became, and the pride of being a Qin person was revealed on their faces.
Today, with the popularization of quality education in Daqin, the knowledge of the people in Daqin is not comparable to before.
Ordinary people usually have nothing to do when they are idle, and they all like to look at the world map laid out at home and analyze the development of various situations in the world today.
Therefore, everyone is naturally aware of the impact that Princess Sophie has had on Daqin after she married into the Prince's residence.
If it was said that Princess Diya of the Seleucid Kingdom married into the Daqin Prince's Mansion with the country as her dowry, then Princess Sophie's marriage into the Prince's Mansion today is an opportunity for Daqin to annex Rome and unify the Western Regions.
Sophie is the daughter of Scipio, the highest consul in Rome, and one of the members of the Council of Elders. These two special identities allow Sophie to have great influence in Rome even though she has not been in contact with political affairs so far. The right to speak.
If coupled with the strong support of Scipio, Sophie can basically decide most of the things in Rome.
Moreover, Sophie was already famous in Rome because of her beauty, and she often helped the poor and had fun with the people, without any airs of being a Roman nobleman.
This made Sophie's reputation among the Roman people even greater than that of Scipio, the supreme consul, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is supported by thousands of people in Rome.
After all, Scipio, as the highest consul, is always aloof. Although he has introduced a series of policies to benefit the people, it seems too far away for the people, but Sophie is right in front of them. They will naturally be more inclined to Sophie.
Therefore, it can be said that if Sophie is married into the door, it is almost the same as marrying the whole of Rome.
And once Rome is annexed and assimilated, it will also have profound significance for the Great Qin's unification of the Western Regions.
Although Rome is now in decline, it was once glorious after all, and now the countries in the Western Regions are hindered by land and climate problems, their productivity is very low, and their technological level is relatively backward, so the overall country is generally stretched.
Rome is indeed facing internal and external troubles, and various domestic conflicts and external wars occur frequently, but as the so-called short generals, with Rome's current level of national strength in the Western Regions, it is still one of the best powers in the Western Regions, and because of the glory of the ancestors, Rome The influence on neighboring countries is extremely far-reaching.
Some self-proclaimed small countries even still call themselves Roman vassal states, and they still think that Rome is still the most powerful country in the world.
It can be seen that Rome's influence on the Western Regions is not superficial, but deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Therefore, if Great Qin wants to unify the Western Regions, and quickly assimilate all the countries in the Western Regions and integrate them into the Qin family, then the best way is to start from Rome, and spread the influence of Great Qin to the surroundings by starting from Rome. Radiate out.
I believe that it won't be long before the power of the Great Qin will spread throughout the Western Regions, and the Western Regions will also be filled with the elements of the Great Qin and Qin people!
......
In the Prince's Mansion, red lanterns hung all over the eaves, and large and small Double Happiness characters were pasted everywhere. The entire Prince's Mansion was filled with a festive atmosphere.
Princess Sophie sat on the head of the bed, waiting for the arrival of Ying Yu, the wishful gentleman.
Under the red hijab, she looked anxious and nervous. If you looked closely, you could even find that her body was trembling slightly.
Although in the past few days, Ying Yu often came to the VIP reception to accompany her and chat with her, and usually the conversation lasted all afternoon, and the relationship between the two quickly heated up because of this.
Sophie doesn't say that she can face Ying Yu openly now, but at least after seeing Ying Yu, she won't be so nervous that she can't even speak as before.
However, when the real wedding night came, Sophie still felt extremely nervous, and the little deer in her heart seemed to jump out at any moment.
Moreover, not only the wedding night made Sophie feel anxious, but the current situation in Rome also made her very uneasy.
About Hannibal leading the Carthaginian army to occupy the Roman border fortress, Sophie already knew from Scipio the Younger.
Although Sophie usually said that she didn't care about political affairs, as the daughter of the highest consul, Sophie also knew how bad the news was for Rome.
