11. The South China Sea (4)
The king of Sulu felt sorry for himself, and the head of the guard hurriedly comforted him, and then the prime minister of Sulu ran in barefoot again, his beard trembled, "Oh no, Sultan," Sulu is close to the equator, and the races are all dark, but the old prime minister who is pampered and does not bask in the sun has a snow-white face, and the beads of sweat on his forehead are too late, and he knelt down, trembling in his hand and holding a book, "Sultan, the decree of the Celestial Empire has arrived!" ”
The king of Sulu was overjoyed, and snatched the book from the prime minister's hand, the book was a bright yellow color that could not be used in Sulu, and the king of Sulu opened it, but unfortunately he didn't know most of the Chinese characters inside, and hurriedly asked the old prime minister to translate, "Prime minister, what is this talking about?" Is it that the Celestial Empire is going to uphold justice for us and come to save us?!?!? ”
"It's an edict from the Imperial Court of the Celestial Empire," the old prime minister shuddered as his mouth, "reprimanding us for not being able to govern the country well, causing the people of the Celestial Empire to be violated in Sulu, if we can no longer restrain it, as soon as the army of the Celestial Empire arrives, we must teach Sulu a lesson." ///”
The book in the hand of the King of Sulu slipped quietly, and the king's face was dull, "This and this," the King of Sulu stammered, "Where does this start?" Allah, if I had a disrespectful mind for the Celestial Empire, let Allah send down thunder and lightning to destroy me! How could the Celestial Empire think so! Prime Minister, do you have it?"
"There is no Sultan, this is the decree of the Celestial Empire."
"Who's coming! Please let him in! No, I'm personally going to greet the Celestial Empire's Ambassador's Day! "The king of Sulu pulled his legs and wanted to leave the palace.
"It was brought back by someone who went to the Celestial Empire for help in the old years," the prime minister almost burst into tears, "No matter what he says, the Li Fan Yuan always doesn't listen, and not long ago issued such an edict for him to bring back." ”
"Oh my God!" The king of Sulu almost fainted, his body trembled, and the head of the guard hurriedly supported him, "God is dead to me Sulu!" The Celestial Empire has given up on us! We are finished, and the inheritance of the three kings is ruined in my hands! ”
The old prime minister who was kneeling on the ground hurriedly stood up, "King, don't be discouraged, the people who went to the Celestial Empire for help are not ignorant, when he came back from Guangzhou, he heard about one thing, the Celestial Empire's sailor ship has come to the south!" I heard that I have arrived in Fuzhou! ”
King Sulu touched his tears, "So what? The king suddenly thought of something, and his eyes were full of surprise, "Could it be that the army of the Celestial Empire is coming to exterminate these damned Spaniards!" ”
"Probably not, Sultan," the old prime minister shattered the unrealistic illusion of the King of Sulu, "the Celestial Empire has a lot of dealings with the Spaniards now, and there is a lot of business, and all the gold beads of the Sulu Kingdom go to the Celestial Empire...... The Beiyang Naval Division will not fall out with the Spaniards for us, but don't worry, Sultan, this can also be an opportunity for us to warn Spain! ”
"What an opportunity!"
"We can warn the Spaniards that the army of the Celestial Empire is in the south, very close to Sulu, and if they do not stop incitement in Sulu, we will go to the Celestial Empire Naval Division to complain! It's called Fox Fake Tiger Power! ”
"Fox fake tiger might?" The King of Sulu was a little confused, "Is this an idiom of the Celestial Empire?" ”
"Yes, Sultan," the old prime minister smiled triumphantly, "although the sailors of the Celestial Empire will not support us, they will certainly not attack us!" Please rest assured, I will repair a book," the old prime minister seemed to be incarnated as Zhuge Kongming at this time, "Submit a letter to Luzon, and ask those foreigners to be good."
As soon as the old prime minister's words fell, a thunderclap sounded at the right time, boom! The place where the Buddha was put shook and the furnishings in the palace were in an uproar and fell to the ground. (To be continued.) )xh118
