v2.Chapter 349 (2/2)
He slightly turned his head and looked at the soldiers behind him. The soldiers left quietly and went back to the palace to report to Yu Fu.
After some trivial hospitality, a group of envoys were welcomed to the post house. Chen Jingxing said, ”please have a rest, so as not to be tired and acclimatized. Your majesty will meet you in person in a few days.”
The left minister, who was in a daze, soon regained his smile. ”It's my official's impoliteness. I think I can see your majesty when I come here today. It's my official's eagerness to worship. In this case, please send Mr. Chen's present to the palace, which was prepared by King sangyi, and send his greetings to your Majesty on behalf of me and the king of our country. ”
Chen Jingxing was full of respect when he listened to his words, and his words were very appropriate. He could not help but have some good feelings for him.
It is said that sangyi is a small barbarian country, but he came to Kyushu several times several hundred years ago to study. Now that he has learned the culture and etiquette of Kyushu, he is different from other small barbarian countries.
Chen Jingxing nodded slightly, ”I will convey it to you. Please give me a rest. I won't disturb you.”
After that, he and the envoys saluted each other and took those gifts back to the palace.
As soon as Chen Jingxing left, the left minister raised his head and gave him a strange smile.
The envoys behind him stepped forward and said something to him in sangyi's language. Then they saw minister Zuo's disdainful eyes and responded to him.
Even if the soldiers in the post house heard them talking, they didn't know what they were talking about.
However, when minister Zuo came back to his room, he heard two soldiers in the backyard muttering, ”the people of sangyi had said different things from us, so how could they say so well?”
”Haven't you heard that they came to mainland Kyushu to study hundreds of years ago? We must have learned our words at that time. What's so strange about that... ”
The left minister chuckled and quietly went into the room. He took off his shoes and knelt on the couch. He closed his eyes slightly.
”Beili, little nvjun, very good.”
……
In the palace, the Ministry of rites of yufuming received a gift from sang Yi, leaving only a gift list.
Compared with the letter of the people's Republic of China, this gift list made her laugh and cry.
It's not that there are not enough things on the top, nor that they are precious enough, but that all the things are from the mainland of Kyushu, and there is nothing Yufu doesn't know.
Sangyi is a remote island country. He sent gifts to Beili from afar, but what did he send to Beili?It's kind of funny.
”Which country does not give its own special products as a farewell gift? Dongling likes to send silk, Xikun likes to send fur, and Beili likes to send ginseng and deer antler. Doesn't sangyi have its own specialty? ”
Yao LAN heard Yu Fu's words and said, ”isn't sang Yi a small island country? You can't let them deliver fish and shrimp, can you? I'm afraid it stinks before it's delivered. I think they must have no special products of their own, so they will send these things learned from us. ”
Yu Fu just said, ”listen to Mr. Chen, the Minister of sangyi was very respectful and polite, and he spoke in an orderly way, unlike other people. It's no different from us, except that we're oddly dressed and very short. ”
Yao LAN is very sensitive to the word ”short”. She can't help but wonder, ”how short is extremely short?”
Yu Fu turned his lips. ”Mr. Chen said it was a three inch nail. I don't think it's so exaggerated. About About a little shorter than the Dongling people. ”
After two days of summoning sangyi envoys, Yufu realized that what Chen Jingxing said was true.
It's just that they are short. All these envoys are wearing very high black hats. They seem to want to cover up their height defects, but they look more and more nondescript.
On the golden hall, the ministers were solemn and the heavenly family was majestic. These sangyi envoys were especially funny when they came in.
When they got to the center of the hall, they all knelt down and bowed to the ground, which surprised the ministers of Yufu and Beili.
When envoys go to other countries all the time, what they value most is the dignity of their own country. They will not give big gifts to foreign monarchs.
The envoys of the sangyi kingdom not only knelt down, but also bowed to the ground. It can be seen how respectful and humble they were to Beili.
All the ministers in the court were quite satisfied. Yu Fu raised his hand and ordered them to get up. ”You envoys have been working hard for a long time. Are you used to living in the capital these days?”
At the beginning, it was customary for the envoys of Sang Yi to exchange greetings and condolence. Naturally, Yu Fu said something lenient and magnanimous, so that they didn't have to be restrained when they were traveling in the middle of Beijing.
After talking about the scene, she slowly turned to the topic, ”the country of sangyi has had little contact with Beili for a hundred years. I was surprised to see the letter of sangyi. What's the purpose of your envoys coming here? ”
The left minister arched himself and said respectfully, ”tell your majesty that we have come to Beili at the order of King sangyi to congratulate your Majesty on his accession to the throne. I know that it has been more than a year since your majesty ascended the throne. We are late. But the sea is stormy and the country of sangyi is far away from Beili. When we heard the news, it was too late for us to prepare a gift and travel all the way to Beili. ”
This is still to express the respect of Beili to Yufu, not to the point.
Yu Fu said with a smile, ”I didn't expect your country to attach so much importance to my accession to the throne. But since your country intends to tie up with us in Beili, why didn't you hear from us for hundreds of years? ”
Minister Zuo almost did not think about it. ”Tell your majesty, it's not that our country does not want to send envoys, it's because the mainland of Kyushu collapsed into three kingdoms before that, we dare not come. On the one hand, when they heard about the war, they worried about being implicated. On the other hand, he could not distinguish the situation of the three countries. He was afraid that he would offend the other two by visiting one of his majesty. But your majesty, after you ascended the throne, the strength of Beili in the Three Kingdoms is the strongest. Your majesty dares to send envoys here! ”
This sounds very honest, and the ministers in the court can't help but feel scornful.
Small island countries can't see the situation clearly. For a while, they didn't dare to rely on it at will. Now when they see that their northern glass is powerful, they just send generous gifts to please them. This is also the consistent style of small and weak countries.
There's nothing wrong with it, but it's a bit of a understatement.
Yu Fu nodded and said, ”I see. Since your country has so much love for me, I should be more concerned about your situation. How many cities and population are there in your country today
The left minister is aware of the contempt of the ministers in Beili court. He thinks that they despise sangyi. He doesn't want the young lady to ask him about his country calmly.
He was stunned and thought for a moment before he said, ”thank you for your concern. There are thirty-five cities in our sangyi kingdom. As for the number of people Less than 100000, right? Chen is not very clear, our country has not yet registered residence. Though we learned the registered residence system from the Kyushu continent hundreds of years ago, we have never had the manpower and material resources to implement it.
One of the courtiers couldn't help smiling. He thought that this barbarian country came to Beili to learn something, but he was worried. Now he is relieved.
Even if they learn to leave, they have the ability to do it. There is nothing to worry about.
Yu Fu eyebrows a pick, ”Oh? The original sang Yi Guo's national strength even registered residence can not be achieved? Then the king of your country sent so many valuable gifts, didn't he make the country poorer? ”
