Section 665 Meetings at the Royal Palace

The royal palace of Portugal was full of King João IV, ministers, bishops, knights, and many noblewomen, who also held noble titles, and were embraced by all of them, dressed in colorful and luxurious clothes, and vying to see the guests from the East.

The palace gate opened, but I saw a group of Oriental officers, wearing their military uniforms, with big caps on their heads, the military uniforms were straight, the cut was quite fitted and close-fitting, and there was an obvious waist part, showing the strong lines of the soldiers! The medals on his body are brilliant and dazzling, with sabers and pistols, beautiful and handsome!

Although they were a little darker, they could see that they were tanned, not the black that Uncle Black had in his bones.

This is very important, if it is like Uncle Black, it will not be valued by white people, after all, white people do not think that black people are human beings.

Young, energetic and energetic!

That temperament is full of confidence, among this group of people, the first is Hong Xiguan, and the second row is Kaustit, Yan Zhang, and Hao Sizhong; The third and fourth platoons were five officers each, and the fifth platoon was five non-commissioned officers, with no soldiers.

Yan Changwu governs the army, and he doesn't look down on people, what about officers, officers are promoted by soldiers, and he wants soldiers to see the world. But to follow the customs of the country, there are many nobles here, and it is appropriate to send officers up.

The military line advanced, and the Portuguese let out a burst of exclamations.

Walking, military posture!

Uniform, in unison, as one person.

Although it is not a small number of soldiers, the shock is incomparable!

The army is united as one, try to see who can be the enemy in the world, and who can be the enemy!

The Portuguese male aristocrats were amazed by their natural murderous aura, while the female aristocrats were conquered by their heroism, and little stars appeared in their eyes.

"Smack!" marched together, strong and powerful, only one sound.

Although the Portuguese had never seen such a military salute, they understood that it was the etiquette of the Eastern armies and saluted them.

Then Hong Xiguan came out of the ranks, first saluted Joao IV cleanly, then saluted a military salute to the left and right, and then knelt down on one knee and said loudly and loudly in Portuguese: "Foreign minister, Hong Xuguan, the special plenipotentiary and plenipotentiary of the Southeast Prefecture of the East, see Your Majesty, I wish Your Majesty good health and eternal monarchy!" “

This set of etiquette is recognized by both sides, and the officers of the Southeast Province are guests, but in those days, the identity of the king of Hongmaofan was not trivial, and he was often the representative of God, and he had to respect the divine right and the monarchy.

Otherwise, if you don't respect others, others will not respect you.

Of course, when you put the battleship formation on their doorstep, you don't have to be so polite.

Now, it's not to blame for many people.

Giving Joao IV enough face, he happily said: "Your envoy has worked hard from afar, please get up!" ”

Hong Xiguan stood up, and only then did he say: "On behalf of my lord, His Royal Highness Yan Changwu, the consul of the Southeast Mansion, greets Your Majesty, and may the two countries be peaceful and friendship forever!" ”

"Very good, thank you Archon, may the two countries be peaceful and friendship forever!" João IV said.

The two sides were polite, and João IV was very happy, and personally introduced him to the main ministers, including the Minister of State Teixeira, the Minister of the Seals, Borcan, etc., as well as Cardinal Oliveira, and the knights, among whom the countesses and baroness winked at him!

If Hong Xiguan doesn't mind their age, he can have a foreign encounter with them, and I believe their husbands or lovers won't mind!

The red-haired fan society is unrestrained and enthusiastic, and the status of Hong Xuguan is high enough, enough for the men to let those ladies go, of course, they don't suffer, and some of them are Xiaomi.

Hong Xiguan greeted them politely and greeted each other.

Don't be too cumbersome, diplomatic etiquette must not be sloppy, and then Hong Xiguan also introduced the officers on his side, the first of which was Costeit, which attracted strong attention from the Portuguese.

"You're Dutch?" Secretary of State Teixeira heard his accent as he greeted everyone.

"Yes, Your Excellency, Honorable Chancellor, I was born in the Netherlands, but I have already pledged my allegiance to His Highness Yan, joined the Southeast Mansion, became his major general officer, and was made a baron (there is currently no baron title in the Southeast Mansion, corresponding to the eighth rank of the duke)." Costit said calmly.

Teixeira asked with interest, "Are there many Europeans in the Southeastern Province?" What is the highest officer rank? ”

"There are a lot of Europeans in the Southeast Mansion, some of them are mercenaries, and there are also many people who have joined the Southeast Mansion and are loyal to His Royal Highness Yan, there are people from various countries, after joining the Southeast Mansion, they are no longer from that country, they are from the Southeast Mansion, they are from the Southeast Mansion, in the Southeast Mansion, they were born in Europe, and there are two people with the highest status, who are the rank of lieutenant general, second only to the rank of general of His Royal Highness Yan." Kaustit told the group, causing them to be surprised.

Officer Hong introduced the other officers in turn, and each officer gave the Portuguese a handsome military salute, so that those who saw the etiquette of the Oriental people were fascinated by it!

The next thing is to give gifts, there are high-quality Jingdezhen porcelain, blue and white porcelain vases, tea sets, etc., which are as white as jade, bright as mirrors, thin as paper, and sound like rocks, so that the red hair does not blink.

With the beginning of the Age of Discovery, trade between the East and the West was frequent, and these upper-class Portuguese people had seen a lot of porcelain, but they still praised such outstanding porcelain.

Then there is the best tea, sealed with the foot, and the tea presented will know how good the goods are when you smell them!

The best silk!

Hong Xiguan took out a small box (as big as a matchbox, and there are no matches now), and pulled out a large piece of clothing as thin as a cicada's wings from the box!

"This is really the magic of the East!" The king and the nobles were all the same.

The nobles' eyes lit up, and they were keenly aware that it was a women's garment, if they could put it on and tempt the young oriental general......

Next, there is the best milk candy, Hong Xiguan distributes sugar in public, and the refined milk candy makes the Portuguese feel extremely sweet!

In fact, toffee is also exported to Europe, but the quantity is small (the production capacity of the southeast province is still insufficient), and the taste is so good that merchants often solve it on their own, and even the nobles can't eat it!

Then there is rum, when it is opened, the aroma is so strong that all the Portuguese subconsciously inhale hard, and all feel the pleasure of the spirit.

Rum with filtration and multiple distillation, which is better than European's, is a gift that can be put on the table.

Then there was free time, where the Portuguese asked the Oriental all sorts of questions.

"Is your country big?" A Portuguese aristocrat curiously authentic.

"Our territory is very large, if you count the sea, our area is bigger than Europe, if you count the land area, we are as big as Europe!" Hong Xiguan comfortably included the Tuao mainland (Indonesia covers an area of more than 2 million square kilometers, the Tuao mainland is more than 7 million square kilometers, and Europe is 10 million square kilometers).

"Oh my God!" A lady named Countess G made a fuss, her chest was turbulent, and there were white flowers!

The big Yanmar is quite beautiful, the smell of incense is too strong, and Hong Xiguan almost fainted, if he hadn't realized that it was rude to leave, he almost wanted to run away.
