When Thomas heard this, he exclaimed excitedly, "Does the Bishop agree with me and use a cannon to expel the messenger of the biological man?" ……”

Miguel glanced at Thomas with disdain, and said in his heart that I want to be as stupid as you, then I don't want to be the bishop, and he stretched out his index finger and shook it unhurriedly: "No, no, Thomas, you really don't know much about biological people, biological people love face very much, especially their emperor, if you let them completely lose face, they will be completely angered, and they will really fight with us desperately, I think this is why the envoy they sent this time has such a tough attitude, they need a step down, Therefore, I think that His Excellency the Doge, without prejudice to the supreme glory of our Spanish Empire, might as well give them a little face, personally receive their envoys, and give them a step down, and if these biological envoys make excessive demands, it is not too late to give them a little more power......"

I have to say that Miguel has really studied the psychology of Chinese very thoroughly, Acuña nodded again and again when he heard it, and applauded: "The bishop really knows biological people, then follow the bishop's suggestion, we will greet these biological messengers according to the specifications of receiving diplomatic envoys, give them enough face, but reject all the substantive requirements they put forward, so as to ensure our interests, and give them a step down to solve this matter satisfactorily......"

The others also nodded, except for Thomas, who was still a little indignant, everyone felt that this was the best solution, Acuña immediately called the attendants in, and began to explain the preparations for welcoming the Ming diplomatic envoy, after all, to meet Guo Zhiyuan and them according to the specifications of the official diplomatic envoys, the preparations are still very cumbersome.

After the discussion was settled, everyone left, Acuña returned to his office, solved a major matter in his heart, he was still in a very happy mood, and even poured a glass of red wine, and sat on the chair that symbolized his power to drink himself, at this time his office was pushed open again, and a person rushed in like a gust of wind, Acuña was about to get angry, but when he saw the person, he suddenly laughed: "Felisa, my precious daughter, didn't you go hunting in the suburbs?" Why did you come back so soon? ……”

Coming in was a hot blonde beauty, she was Acunia's favorite daughter--- Felisa, she was also the only person who could break into Acunia's office without knocking on the door without being scolded by Acunia, Felisa sat on the armrest of Acunia's chair of power and pouted: "It's boring, every day except hunting or hunting, it's boring......"

Acuña caressed Felisa's long golden hair with some natural curls, and said with a smile: "Felisa, you can go to Madame Moga to learn cooking, or you can go to Bishop Miguel to learn aristocratic etiquette......"

When Felisa heard this, she jumped up and said coquettishly, "Stop! I don't want to learn this, you might as well kill me if you want me to learn this! ……”

Acuña couldn't do anything about this daughter who was spoiled by herself, so she could only smile bitterly: "Okay, good, if you don't learn, you won't learn, as long as my baby daughter is happy!" ……”

Felisa turned her anger into joy at this time, and suddenly her eyes rolled and said, "Dad, I heard that the biological people have sent messengers again, and you are going to hold a welcoming ceremony for them, and I want to participate in the ...... too."

Acuña frowned when he heard this, and said with some displeasure: "Felisa, don't mess around, it's a serious matter to welcome diplomatic envoys, what are you going to make a fuss about?" Besides, it's not like you haven't seen a biological person, what's there to see? ……”

Felisa pursed her mouth, proudly straightened her towering chest, and said coquettishly, "Why can't I participate?" Do you think that your daughter is not beautiful enough and noble enough to be worthy of such a ceremony? ……”

Seeing that Acuña's expression was still a little hesitant, Felisa hugged Acuña's arm and shook it vigorously, and said coquettishly: "Dear Dad, tomorrow's welcome ceremony must be very lively, you just let me participate, I'm about to suffocate......"

Acuña was so worn out by Felisa that she had to nod and smile: "Okay, good, of course my daughter is the most beautiful and noble, but you have to promise me not to talk nonsense when you attend the welcome ceremony......

Felisa was overjoyed and kissed Acuña on the cheek and excitedly said, "Great! Then I'll go and choose a beautiful dress, and ...... it to wear to the welcome ceremony tomorrow," and after saying that, like a dexterous deer, he ran away happily.

Guo Zhiyuan thought that he would have to wait for several days before there was news, but he did not expect that the bearded officer who had come to Guo Zhiyuan and their Dafu ship again in a small boat that night, and told them that His Excellency the Governor had promised to receive them and would hold a grand welcome ceremony for them on the front lawn of the Governor's Palace.

Hearing this news, Guo Zhiyuan was of course overjoyed, and hurriedly summoned his subordinates to explain to them the precautions when entering the city tomorrow to negotiate, only that Liu Tongshi was a little confused, he couldn't have imagined that he deliberately translated Guo Zhiyuan's words but was self-defeating and helped Guo Zhiyuan a lot, so that Guo Zhiyuan received a super-standard courtesy, you must know that the previous waves of diplomatic envoys were not allowed to enter the royal city of Manila, Acuña didn't even show his face, and sent a few officials below to send them away.

Because the Spaniards only allowed Guo Zhiyuan to land with a small number of guards and entourage, early the next morning, Guo Zhiyuan landed on a ferry boat with thirty regimental training villagers dressed in new military uniforms and equipped with flintlock pistols, Zhang Cheng, Fa Zheng, Chu Wan'er, and Sun Er naturally accompanied them, only Shen Junrong did not like to show up, and Guo Zhiyuan considered that if any accident happened, there would be people on the Dafu ship, so he let Shen Junrong and Sun Laosan stay on the Dafu ship with Sun Fu's family.

The sun rises high, and the sun shines brightly, casting a golden yellow on the earth. The bell of the Church of San Agustín in the Intramuros of Manila thundered with a dull eight sounds, the drawbridge at the gate of the Intramuros was slowly lowered, and a group of 100 guards with guns and horses galloped out of the city. This is the guard who came to pick up Guo Zhiyuan into the city.

It is not so much that these Spanish guards are here to greet Guo Zhiyuan and them, it is better to say that they are showing off the strength and military might of the Spaniards to Guo Zhiyuan, especially Thomas, who is at the forefront, is full of arrogance and contempt, although his opinion was not adopted yesterday, but it could not change his hostility towards Guo Zhiyuan, seeing Guo Zhiyuan, they did not slow down their horses, but rode on a tall horse and waved their hands, and the Spanish guards under him immediately changed one team into two teams, sandwiching Guo Zhiyuan and their team in the middle.

At this time, of course, Guo Zhiyuan couldn't show weakness, and shouted: "Line up!" Stand upright, take a break, stand upright, walk upright! Under Guo Zhiyuan's order, their movements were neat like a person, and the sound of leather boots stepping on the stone road even covered the chaotic hooves of the Spanish cavalry, although the number was smaller than that of the Spanish guards, but the momentum of the rainbow suddenly the Spanish guards were calmed, and even the horses under their crotches seemed to feel the solemn atmosphere exuded by the regimental training villagers, and they were a little uneasy and slightly tread the horses' hooves.

The soldiers of the regiment trained the villagers without squinting and walked across the moat into the royal city of Manila, which attracted the Spanish residents in the Spanish houses on both sides of the road to come out of their homes and observe this strange team curiously.

Acuña did give Guo Zhiyuan enough face this time, and led his officials to greet him on the lawn in front of the Governor's Palace. The judges were also in attendance, and saw the regimental training villagers wearing new military uniforms and flintlock pistols walking over in neat steps, and the corners of his eyes twitched imperceptibly, this team was indeed too different from the previous waves of Ming missions he had seen, as a former knight of the Knights Hospitaller of St. John in Jerusalem, he could feel the momentum exuded by this small team, this is definitely the elite of the elite, if the soldiers of the biological people have such qualities, he really has to reassess the strength of the Ming Dynasty!

And what surprised him even more was Guo Zhiyuan, who walked at the end of the line, he could see at a glance that Guo Zhiyuan was the diplomatic envoy this time, because so many people only Guo Zhiyuan was wearing the official uniform of the Ming Dynasty, and the few diplomatic envoys of the Ming Dynasty who came before were either gray-haired old men or greasy middle-aged men with big bellies, but Guo Zhiyuan was so young, what was the intention of the Ming Dynasty to send such a young official as a diplomatic envoy?

Guo Zhiyuan also recognized at a glance that Acuña, who was surrounded in the middle of the crowd, should be the main opponent of this negotiation--- the Spanish governor in the Philippines, wearing a wig that only nobles would wear, wearing a dress, and exposing his face and limbs with a bronzed complexion unique to seafarers.

However, Guo Zhiyuan's eyes were more attracted by Felisa behind Acuña, this blonde beauty is so beautiful, her skin as white as milk, her eyes as clear as sapphire, and her naturally curly long golden hair in the sunlight makes her like a luminous body, and she can't be eye-catching, and the main thing is that Felisa is wearing a traditional Spanish dress today. The skirt is decorated with lace and pleats to look very fluffy, but the upper body is a corset that binds the waist very thinly, so that the snow white and towering on the chest are fully displayed, so that Guo Zhiyuan almost even has a nosebleed!
