At the beginning of the ugly hour, the lights were bright, and the long queue of palace maids and eunuchs passed through one after another, each holding or holding a small but exquisite object in their hands, stepping on broken and hurried steps, with a serious expression, silent, and walking towards their respective destinations.

Lights flow over the gorgeous clothes, and colorful patterns flow into multi-colored blended lines. Looking down from above, the entire Daming Palace is like a neat and orderly rapids, passing through the dense buildings.

The 6,000 men worked non-stop for six hours to set up the site to be used after dawn. Immediately afterwards, the eunuchs of the celebrant crossed each place to re-examine each place, and the subordinates who followed behind immediately sent someone to correct each instruction, not daring to delay in the slightest. The huge venue, with one hundred and seventy-two celebrant eunuchs patrolling and supervising, was still not enough to keep them busy, so that they had to complain about the decisions made at their convenience.

"To reflect the majesty of our Ming Dynasty and the contempt of our great powers, it takes six hours to arrange the venue, which is obviously a grand event for the whole country, and I have to pretend to be an understatement. It's not the people below us who suffer for such a difficult thing?"

"The budget is only 40 million taels, and the Dongjin Palace alone has allocated 30 million taels, and the various departments and yamen have allocated 8 million taels, so it will be less than 2 million taels for us, but 2 million taels have to spend 20 million taels! What can 2 million taels do in this world now?"

"But no! How big can two million taels buy in Tiandu? If we hadn't worked hard to figure out this thing, we would have been able to accomplish it? Hey! We can't make a living by offending people every day!"

"The whole world is our celebrant and eunuch!"

The eunuchs of the ceremonial supervisors still looked bitter and hateful just now, but when they arrived in front of their subordinates, they seemed to be immediately beaten with chicken blood, commanding and giving orders, and they could go three days and three nights without sleeping.

Near dawn, all the work was finally completed, and the dust on the potted plants was wiped clean. However, these more than 6,000 people are still not allowed to rest, and all of them are in full battle, as long as the boss gives an order, they must immediately complete the tasks assigned to them. At such a juncture, if something goes wrong, it is not as simple as being dismissed.

The morning bell reverberates in the sky above the Daming Palace.

The nine-foot-and-five-foot-high red lacquer gate slowly opened, and the rising sun cast light from outside the door, and the red carpet pushed by eight people at the same time happened to spread out to the door, receiving the sunlight together.

The guards lined up in two rows at regular pace, nailed to their respective positions, and once they stood still, their resolute faces no longer expressionless.

The hands on the sundial are slowly moving over the lattice lines, and the water dripping from the copper kettle continues to drip until it reaches the scale mark.

Time's up!

"Announce the visit of the missions of various countries!"

The eunuch who stood in the Fengtian Hall shouted out, and the eunuchs below him passed one after another, and the sound was continuous, getting louder and louder, like the tide of the Qiantang River, gushing out of the main gate.

"Announcing the Audience of the Missions of Various Countries !!"

The rumbling sound spread out outside the palace gate, like a thunderclap exploding, covering everyone's heads, making those who had been waiting for a long time wake up suddenly.

The people in splendid costumes lined up in a long line, and immediately moved, meandering forward.

"Dazhen Kingdom Visit!" The eunuch at the door shouted, and the elongated voice was transmitted towards the Daming Palace, and the grand voice was transmitted layer by layer, like an arrow rushing to the sky, and there was no strength in front of the Fengtian Palace, and the feeling of groveling arose spontaneously.

"Audience of the Turbulent Kingdom!"

"Audience in the Qur'an!"

"Audience in the South!"

Nanxing was wearing a wide white dress, jade white all over, and the neckline and cuffs were embroidered with purple-gold phoenixes, making him look heroic and gentle at the same time. Nanxing walked in the front with his head held high, and a hundred people lined up behind him, dressed gorgeously and with a solemn expression.

After the southern country, the other dozens of small countries also came to the audience, but the pomp and circumstance were far less grand than the previous four countries.

"Ye Xinluo, the envoy of the Great Zhen Kingdom, came to the audience on behalf of the Great Zhen Kingdom, bringing a total of 36 cars of rare treasures such as 30 pieces of white jade real plates, 26 Nirvana phoenix beads, and 30 Qi Xian Dan, to extend greetings to the Ming Dynasty on behalf of His Majesty the Holy Emperor, and wish the two countries to always cultivate the good of Qin and Jin, and help each other - every liver and gallbladder take care of each other, and the curling reflects the cold moon. ”

Ye Xinluo's voice was loud and reached everyone's ears, and then he saluted according to the etiquette of the Great True Kingdom, with a respectful expression and no loss of style.

"Da Ming has always been good friends with Da Zhen, a hundred years ago Da Zhen sent 3,000 envoys to my Ming Dynasty to worship and study, there are countless settlers, the two countries are in the same breath, support each other. In order to show the friendship between the two countries, we will give back 30 horses of Dazhen gold silkworm silk, 100 jars of 100 brewed flower fairy wine, and 48 transformative ginseng plants......"

When the names were pronounced, the hearts of the eunuchs of the celebrant were dripping blood. Regardless of whether it is good or evil, the Ming Dynasty will give back ten times or dozens of times to other countries that come to participate in the Dynasty of All Nations, as if it is not enough to show its strength. Fortunately, the celebrant came up with the idea of making the provinces bear the burden of returning the gift ten years ago, otherwise the treasury, which had long been empty, would have to sell pillars and bricks.

Of course, the eunuch of the celebrant was not distressed by Daming's wanton profligacy, but distressed that these treasures had nothing to do with him anymore. Although there will be a few thoughtful envoys from other countries who secretly return some of them, it is also a drop in the bucket.

The lengthy and complicated ritual made the pilgrimage last for six hours, followed by a banquet of nearly 1,000 people. The six thousand people flowed like a marquee, without stopping, and in an instant the empty venue was arranged into a grand feast.

Fireworks rose into the sky, and a huge star map loomed out, like a long dragon lying across the sky......

Singing and dancing lightly, the sword array crossed the sky, and the majestic vitality brought a brilliant light......

The drums and the sheng, the woman with a beautiful posture dances in the sky, with long sleeves like flowing water, like a dream......

"Mr. Lu, what do you think?" asked Nanxing.

"Vast and beautiful, a great country. ”

Nanxing understood that Mr. Lu was referring to the "vain appearance" of the Ming Kingdom, and couldn't help laughing. Saying such contempt in the imperial city of the Ming Dynasty is not just to prove how arrogant this person is, but that the Ming Dynasty can indeed reach the point of contempt.

Mr. Lu looked in the direction of the chief platform, and said: "The sword array has flown for half an hour, and the residual light can still shine on the starry sky, the Ming Dynasty is indeed powerful." ”

has been in the world for hundreds of years, but it can't be wiped out in a conversation and laughter.

Nanxing also looked towards the chief platform and saw Chu Anliang and - Di Mingyue!

"It's been a long time, Di Mingyue. ”
