On the day of Song Yinzi's enthronement ceremony, Shiro Tano, the prince of the Great Fusang Kingdom, suddenly came to congratulate him, and in addition to sending valuable gifts such as gold, silver, jewelry, etc., he also sent eighteen beautiful women of the Great Fusang Kingdom to Song Yinzi.

When the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty saw it, they all had envious expressions on their faces. Everyone is envious of Song Yinzi, who can actually enjoy the beauty of a foreign woman. However, Xiao Ding didn't think so, he felt that with Song Yinzi's weak physique, he almost lost his life some time ago, and he had just raised some recently, and sent him more than ten women, this is not Yanfu, but to ask for his life.

Song Yinzi sat on the dragon chair and looked at the group of women, sure enough, they were all wearing exotic clothes, although they were a little petite, they were all very cute, they were shy and timid, and all men would have a feeling of pity when they saw it.

Since it was a congratulatory gift from Fanbang, as the emperor, it was not easy to refuse other people's gifts, so he nodded and instructed the eunuch waiting beside him: "In this case, then lead these women into the harem first, and let the female officials teach them the etiquette of the court." ”

The eunuch promised to go down and take the eighteen women of the Great Fusang Kingdom to the harem.

Then, Shiro Tano, the prince of the Great Fuso Kingdom, continued: "Your Majesty the Emperor, in addition to the gift just now, I also brought some flower seeds and a painting to give to Your Majesty. ”

"Flowers?" Song Yinzi asked suspiciously.

"It's a drop, a flower seed. At the same time, I also brought a picture of this flower. I heard that the Great Song Dynasty has Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and there are all kinds of talents, I think, there must be people in your country who know this flower, right? Shiro Tano said calmly.

"Then you can bring in the drawing, let's take a look at it first." Song Yinzi said.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty the Emperor, before looking at the painting, I have to declare in advance, what if after I take out this painting, no one in your country will be able to recognize the flowers on this painting?" When Shiro Tano saw that Song Yinzi wanted to see the painting, he stopped him first.

"What do you mean by that? Do you want to talk about any conditions when you look at a painting? Song Yinzi's face sank, and he was also a little unhappy.

"Don't dare, don't dare, Your Majesty the Emperor, after all, your country is a big country in the Celestial Empire, if you have so many civil and military officials, you can't even recognize what kind of flower the flower I painted is, it will be too ridiculous and generous." Shiro Tano bowed, then pointed to the ministers of civil and military affairs.

"You just have to take out the painting, I have so many civil and military generals, can't I recognize one of your flowers?" Song Yinzi said coldly.

"Okay, but, Your Majesty the Emperor, let's say in advance, if no one in your country can recognize what kind of flower my painting is, then in the future, your Great Song Kingdom will have to pay tribute to our Great Fusang Kingdom every year!" Although Shiro Tanano's voice was not loud, he was aggressive, and all the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty could hear it clearly.

Xiao Ding also heard Shiro Tano's words in the crowd, and said in his heart that this little Japan came over today, and he really didn't have a good heart! Obviously, he came here to deliberately pick on purpose. Give you some treasures and beauties to make a good impression, and then stab you softly.

Song Yinzi was stimulated by Shiro Tano's words, and his mind was impulsive, so he said, "What if our people recognize the flowers you painted?" Do you have to pay tribute to my Great Song Kingdom every year in the future? ”

"That's nature! If anyone in your country can recognize what kind of flower the flower in my painting is, we will pay tribute to your country every year in the future. Shiro Tano said with a calm expression, as if he had already made a bamboo in his chest, and no one could recognize the tweed on his painting from the people of the Great Song Kingdom.

Song Yinzi saw Shiro Tano's expression, and his heart couldn't help but feel a little weak. But at this time, the arrow was on the string and had to be sent. At this point, the loser does not lose the battle, and at this time, even if he slaps a swollen face, he will be fat. So, he said, "Okay, then it's a word, you can take out the painting and let us see it." ”

Seeing Song Yinzi agree, Shiro Tano was secretly happy in his heart, and hurriedly beckoned to several samurai behind him, one of whom took out a scroll from his backpack and handed it to Shiro Tano.

Shiro Tano handed the scroll to the eunuch who walked down the steps. After the eunuch took the scroll, he returned to Song Yinzi, who nodded at him and motioned for him to unfold the scroll.

The eunuch untied the string that bound the scroll, faced the minister of civil and military affairs, and unfolded the scroll.

Suddenly, all the people in the hall were dazzled. I saw that above the picture scroll, it was simply a sea of flowers, under the blue sky, flowers, clusters, clusters, pink and white, like an undulating pink wave, and like a soft pink satin that unfolded. The shadow of the flowers reflects the blue sky, and the blue sky covers the sea of flowers, reflecting each other, as if there are bursts of floral fragrance wafting out of the picture scroll, which makes people intoxicated.

These flowers are all flowers that grow on trees, and they are different from the potted flowers that everyone imagined before.

Being able to paint these flowers vividly on the painting, making the viewer feel as if he was there, it can be seen that the painting skills of the painter are also very good.

However, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, including Song Yinzi, everyone sighed and admired the beauty of the flowers on this painting for a long time, and the painting was also beautiful, but no one could call out what the name of this flower was.

Song Yinzi has been reading and learning calligraphy since he was a child, and he has dabbled in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and he is also very familiar with all kinds of common flowers. In particular, there are some exotic flowers and plants planted in the palace from time to time. Song Yinzi thought that with his own knowledge, he would definitely be able to recognize the flowers painted by the prince of Fusang, but as a result, he carefully studied them for a long time and found that the flower clusters on the painting looked like apricot blossoms, peach blossoms, and pear blossoms, but they were not these kinds of flowers at all.

The ministers in the hall, especially the civil officials, have basically received the education of this era since childhood, and they also have some understanding of calligraphy, painting, flowers, etc. As a result, they looked at it for a long time, and they also felt the same as Song Yinzi, looking at these flowers, although they were very similar to apricot blossoms, peach blossoms, and pear blossoms, they were actually none of them.

Shiro Tano, who was standing on the side, saw that after everyone looked at the painting, he only praised the beauty of the flower and praised the good painting, but he didn't hear anyone call out the name of the flower, so he felt a little proud in his heart and asked: "Your Majesty the Emperor, has anyone in your country ever recognized what kind of flower this flower is?" ”

When Song Yinzi heard this, he frowned, he glanced at the ministers, and then asked, "Zhong Aiqing, have you ever known what kind of flower the flower on this painting is?" ”

When the ministers heard the emperor asking, they all shook their heads and retreated to the back.

When Song Yinzi saw it, he was anxious in his heart, and hurriedly asked again: "Ladies and gentlemen, take a closer look, have you ever recognized what kind of flower the flower on this painting is?" ”

When the ministers heard this, a few of them really stepped forward to watch carefully, but after reading it, they still shook their heads and sighed, and silently retreated to the back.

At this time, Shiro Tano also saw this scene, and said proudly: "Your Majesty the Emperor, I think no one in your country can recognize this flower. It seems that your country is in vain to be called the Celestial Empire, but it is only a vain name, since no one can recognize this flower, then your country will have to pay tribute to our Great Fusang Kingdom every year in the future. ”

"This ......" Song Yinzi was speechless, he glanced at the ministers again, anxious, and said secretly, is there so many of you, can no one know this flower?

When the ministers saw Song Yinzi looking at them, they all bowed their heads in shame. You must know that Song Yinzi lost this gamble, not only Song Yinzi's face was gloomy, but the faces of their ministers were also faceless.

Shiro Tano suddenly couldn't suppress the joy in his heart, laughed, and was about to continue to say a few words to ridicule Song Yinzi, when suddenly someone in the crowd said: "I know this flower!" ”

The eyes of everyone in the hall were all on the tall body of the person who spoke.

It was Tian Xiaoding who spoke.

Xiao Ding was not in a hurry, and under the gaze of everyone, he walked out of the crowd, he came to the painting, pointed to the painting and said to Shiro Tano, "This is a cherry blossom." It's the national flower of your Great Fuso country, am I right? In our Great Song Kingdom, cherry blossoms are usually used as medicine to treat cough, fever and other symptoms. ”

When Shiro Tano heard this, he was immediately speechless, and Zhigo said, "You, you, how do you know?" ”

At this time, the four Fuso warriors behind Shiro Tano had also recognized Xiao Ding, and said in surprise: "You, you, are you not dead and dead?" ”

Xiao Ding smiled slightly, and said in the tone of the warrior: "In the end, how can I work so dead?" ”

When the civil and military officials heard the conversation between the two, they burst into laughter. The frustration when I was ridiculed and ridiculed just now suddenly disappeared.

Xiao Ding is actually not sure whether the flowers on the painting are cherry blossoms or not, because, if he takes them out alone, he can't distinguish between apricot blossoms, peach blossoms, cherry blossoms, and pear blossoms.

However, as a person who has crossed over, Xiao Ding knows that the cherry blossoms are the national flower of Little Japan in later generations. The origin of Japanese cherry blossoms also comes from the cherry blossoms in the Himalayas, and after several generations of cultivation and selection, there are beautiful Japanese cherry blossoms.

The pristine wild cherry blossom varieties in the Himalayas are not as beautiful as Japanese cherry blossoms. Therefore, in the history of China, there are many poems, calligraphy and paintings that praise and depict plums, orchids, bamboos, chrysanthemums, peonies, and lotuses, but it is rare to see cherry blossoms depicted and painted.

This is also the main reason why no one knows the cherry blossoms in the Manchu Dynasty of the Great Song Dynasty. Xiao Ding knew in his heart that if it was peach blossoms, apricot blossoms, pear blossoms, etc., these civil officials would definitely be able to guess it, so it was certain that the painting on this painting must be cherry blossoms.

Therefore, he came out to save the scene at a critical moment.

Song Yinzi saw that Xiao Ding immediately called out the name of the flower, and his joy was revealed. praised in his mouth: "I'll just say, with my dignified Song Kingdom, how can no one know this flower?" Or Marquis Tian is well-informed, not only proficient in Wentao martial arts, but also involved in this kind of flower calligraphy and painting, and he is really the pillar of the country! ”

As soon as the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty heard that the emperor was praising Xiao Ding, they all became angry and followed the horse. In fact, they are also very happy in their hearts, if Xiao Ding does not stand up and say the name of the flower, then the Great Song Kingdom will have to pay tribute to their small country every year. It's not that the money for the tribute is missing, but it's that the face can't get by. The dignified Song Kingdom, known as the Heavenly Empire, went to pay tribute to a small overseas country, how embarrassing it is to say it!

At this time, Shiro Tian was staring at Xiao Ding with a gaze full of hatred, eager to go over and throw Xiao Ding away with a punch. He secretly hated in his heart, and said in his heart, where is the stinky boy, if you don't come out and destroy my good deeds, won't our plan succeed?

However, although he secretly hated in his heart, he didn't dare to really step forward, and at this moment, Song Yinzi on the dragon chair opened his mouth again and said: "Prince Tian Shiro, our Marquis Tian has recognized what kind of flower you are painting on, this time, your Great Fusang Kingdom should pay tribute to our Great Song Kingdom every year in the future, right?" ”

Seeing that his side won, Song Yinzi also had the confidence to speak.

Shiro Tano said hesitantly: "This, this, this, this is slow for the time being!" ”

"What? The prince of your dignified Fusang country represents the court of your great Fusang country, do you still want to deny it? Song Yinzi has confidence, and as soon as this momentum comes up, it is no worse than the previous Shiro Tano.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, I don't mean to deny it. The cherry blossom seeds that I promised to give to Your Majesty before the next can naturally be handed over to Your Majesty first, but this matter of tribute still needs to wait a little longer. Shiro Tano adjusted his mind and said. After saying that, he motioned to the samurai behind him to take out the cloth bag containing the flower seeds, and then handed it to the eunuch.

Song Yinzi asked the eunuch to open the cloth bag, looked at it, and then said: "Since you don't want to deny it, why do you want to shirk and refuse to agree to the tribute?" ”

Xiao Ding also glanced at the moment when the eunuch opened the cloth bag, and saw that the cloth bag contained cherry pits. Sure enough, it is the seed of the cherry blossom.

When Shiro Tian heard Song Yinzi's question, he hurriedly bowed and replied, "It's not that I want to deliberately prevaricate. As I said before, in addition to sending gifts, beauties, paintings, and flowers to His Majesty the Emperor, I have another purpose that I have not achieved, so I cannot agree to His Majesty's tribute for the time being. ”

When the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty heard this, they all secretly scolded this little man of Fanbang for being shameless, he had said it well before, as long as someone recognized what kind of flower it was, he promised to pay tribute every year, and now after he really recognized it, he found an excuse to start saying something else. Isn't this a cheat?

After Song Yinzi heard this, he was also very unhappy, and said with a calm face: "What other purpose do you have, say it, I want to hear it, and see how you want to deny it?" ”

Tian Ye Shiro's face did not change, bowed and said: "I have heard that everyone in the Great Song Kingdom is martial arts, and martial arts masters abound. However, it has been more than a month since my men came to the Great Song Kingdom, and they have challenged the masters of the various sects in the rivers and lakes everywhere, but they have always been invincible. Could it be that the martial arts of your Great Song Kingdom are inferior to the martial arts of our Great Fusang Kingdom? Therefore, I would like to make a request, if Your Majesty's people can overcome us, we are willing to submit to the Great Song Kingdom and pay tribute to your country every year in the future. If none of Your Majesty's people can have our people left, then we will not be able to pay tribute to your country every year. ”

As soon as the ministers in the hall heard this, they all said in their hearts, you guy is also playing home!
