Chapter 1305 - Don't Throw Silver Money!

"Lord Wang, this golden elephant was also brought from Tianzhu?"

"Of course not, how could it be transported from Tianzhu? There are more than 10,000 and 20,000 miles of sea routes from Surat to Guangzhou, and an elephant is not stinky to death on the ship? ”

"So this elephant is ......"

"I ordered the goods from Jin Oujun and asked the seller to send them to Guangzhou."

"Buy an elephant and give it back?"

"Princess Nissa has money! Money can make ghosts grind, what is it to send an elephant to the door? ”

"Then what is Princess Nissa doing with an elephant in Wuchang?"

"Of course I rode it...... Do you see the little golden house on the back of an elephant? The princess will sit inside. ”

The people who were talking were Zhu Ciwei and Grand Duke Luo, and it turned out that the two of them had come to the dock to greet Princess Nissa of the Tianzhu Timurid Empire. While the two were talking about elephants, they saw some dresses dressed in brightly colored saris, on their wrists, necks, hair, ears...... Even the maids of the Tianzhu Kingdom, who wore glittering gold jewelry on their nostrils, lined up in two lines and walked from the big golden ship to the dock through the long gangplank. There are 20 of these maids in total, all of them are wheat-colored, bearded girls with a somewhat bewitching appearance, and each of them is carrying a basket on his right arm, and the basket is shining silver, and I don't know what it is?

Immediately afterwards, Princess Nisha, dressed in a white sari and wearing only a string of pearl necklaces around her long neck, appeared in the sight of the blessed king Zhu Cixi.

Zhu Cixi pulled the Grand Duke Luo, who was looking at Princess Nisha's Rajput maid, and whispered, "Princess Nissa is here." ”

As soon as Grand Duke Luo heard him, he hurriedly looked at the golden boat, and at a glance saw Princess Nissa dressed in white and wearing a white turban.

"How does this princess look different from her palace maid?" Grand Duke Luo looked at the princess's facial features and complexion, and then looked at those Rajput palace maids, they were not the same species at all!

"Of course it's different," Zhu Ciwei said, "the princess is a Mongolian, and those palace maids are Rajputs from Tianzhu Kingdom...... It's not a species. ”

"Mongols? It doesn't look like it! Grand Duke Luo looked at it again.

"It's planted...... She has more Persian ancestry, and a little bit of Western Regions blood, but she doesn't have Tianzhu's local blood, so it's very white. Those that are a little dark are the local nobles of Tianzhu. ”

"Your species?" Grand Duke Luo asked, "And the cheap species?" ”

"Of course there is," Zhu Ciwei said, "There are many kinds of Tianzhu, and there are clear differences between high and low...... It's hard for outsiders to tell the difference, and I know that the whiter the skin, the higher the species. ”

"Really?" Grand Duke Luo glanced at Zhu Cixiong and said half-jokingly, "Lord Wang, we are both quite white, and we are probably both noble breeds in Tianzhu, right?" ”

Hehe, you can't look at the skin in this matter! Zhu Ciwei actually studied the caste of Tianzhu, and caste is actually linked to occupation. Luo Dagong is the descendant of the great Confucian Luo Yuzhang of the Song Dynasty, and the 600-year-old scholarly door should be a Brahmin in Tianzhu. And Zhu Cixiong's ancestors are going to have dinner...... I don't know if Princess Nissa will look down on Emperor Zhu after she knows about this?

When he was thinking about this, Princess Nissa had already walked up to the Hanyangmen pier surrounded by a group of maids, her eyes were very good, and she saw Zhu Ciwei from a distance, so she smiled and walked towards him, and when she arrived, she still followed the example of a Chinese woman, and made a blessing.

"Nissa is polite." The princess speaks in Chinese—she can now write poetry in Chinese, and her language talent is really not low!

Zhu Ciwei hurriedly returned the salute: "Xiao Wang has seen the princess." Then he introduced Grand Duke Luo to Princess Nisha, "Your Highness, this is Elder Luo Ge, Grand Duke of Shangshu Luo of the Ming Ministry of Foreign Affairs." ”

Zhu Cihong abolished the cabinet scholars and changed it to a cabinet system in which the prime minister and the monk jointly assisted the government, so the eight books were all called "cabinet elders".

"I've seen Elder Ge." Princess Nissa also gave a blessing to Grand Duke Luo.

Grand Duke Luo hurriedly returned the salute, and then said with a smile: "Your Highness, the old minister and His Royal Highness King Fu were ordered by the emperor to receive you into the palace...... Donghu Palace is quite far from here, let's hurry up, don't let Your Majesty wait for a long time. ”

"Listen to the elder of the pavilion." Princess Nissa waved behind her, and then she saw two black elephant slaves walking towards her with a large golden elephant.

At the same time, there were more black-looking slaves, and the two of them picked a large chest and disembarked from the golden ship. The number of slaves is great, and the chests are numerous. Until Princess Nissa, with the help of her maids, enters the little golden house on the back of the elephant, and a steady stream of slaves disembarks from the ship.

"His Royal Highness King Fu, let's go!" Princess Nissa watched her servants get off the boat before she smiled and said to Zhu Cixi.

Zhu Ciwei and Grand Duke Luo glanced at each other, and then at the elephant that had already stood up, and ordered all kinds of servants to bring the horses - they prepared a carriage for the princess, but they wanted to ride the elephant, so they had to ride the horse in front of the road.

But they were not at the forefront, at the front were Zhu Cixi's guard of honor, behind the guard of honor were Princess Nisha's twenty Jelaputt maids, then Grand Duke Luo and Zhu Cixi, and then Princess Nissa riding on an elephant, and behind the princess were the servants who carried books and jewelry for her - most of her dowry had been deposited in the Maritime Bank, and was remitted directly to Wuhan Prefecture, and only some of them were taken by her to spend on the road. She was followed mainly by her books and jewelry...... She is the number one bibliophile in Tianzhu Kingdom! The results of the entire Tianfang Sect's 100-year translation movement came to China with her.

As for the jewelry, there are too many to say, India is already rich in all kinds of gems and pearls, the Timurid Empire has robbed India for so many years, there are many such things in the treasury, Princess Nissa still wants as many as she wants?

In fact, she doesn't wear much either, she only wears a string of pearls, and nothing else...... However, Princess Nissa still brought a lot of them to Daming to fill the façade.

The team had already begun to move forward, and after walking for a while, walking in front of Zhu Ciwei and Luo Dagong were 20 Rajput maids carrying baskets. As soon as they got out of the dock and walked on the street outside Hanyang Gate, these maids began to throw the contents of the baskets to the crowd watching the bustle on both sides of the road!

"What are they doing? Why litter? Grand Duke Luo was stunned when he saw something like a small pebble being thrown out, "Will this hit someone?" What should I do if I hit someone? ”

Zhu Ciwei had seen this as early as when he was in Tianzhu, and said with a smile: "They are throwing rupees." ”

"Rupee? What is the Rupee? ”

Zhu Ciwei explained: "The rupee is money! It is the silver coin of the Timurid Empire! ”

"What? Throwing money? Is money okay to throw around? Isn't that a waste of money? ”

"That's it on Tianzhu's side," Zhu Ciwei said, "the waterlogging is dying, and the drought is dying...... The Timurid Dynasty is even more wide, and the annual income is worth half of our Ming Dynasty's wealth! This Princess Nissa's dowry also has her own private property plus a few million taels of silver, and an annuity of more than 300,000 taels!

I guess her maid will throw money all the way to Donghu Palace! ”

Luo Dagong said: Throw money all the way? This princess is too extravagant, she must tell His Majesty when she goes back, and she has to discipline her well!

When Princess Nissa rode an elephant, sprinkled rupees, and carried countless jewels and books, through Wuchang City, and came to Donghu Palace, Emperor Zhu was in his imperial study to produce the exam papers—this is the exam paper for the admission of Jinling Women's University! But it was difficult, and the first one to be tested was, of course, Princess Nissa who was rushing to the East Lake Palace.

It is also thanks to Zhu Cihong that he wants to entertain this exotic princess from afar with a semi-public examination, and her status in the harem will also be determined by the test results...... So Princess Nissa has to take the test well!
