Chapter 85: The Envoy's Gift (I)
Gao Yang Yajun's face was flushed, and she raised a jade cup and said loudly:
"Ladies and gentlemen, come and toast to the establishment of the Huaxia Empire!"
"Congratulations to Your Majesty!!"
The ministers in the court raised their glasses to pay tribute to Gao Yang Yajun.
When the envoys of other countries saw Gao Yang Yajun toasting everyone, they also stood up and raised their glasses and drank it all.
And the chiefs of those chiefdoms who were forcibly brought back saw that they stood up and toasted back to Gao Yang Yajun, and they also stood up stupidly to toast.
To say that the happiest people in this ceremony are probably the chiefs of these chiefdoms, they were originally very frightened when they came to Meijing, but they didn't expect that after the army brought them to Meijing and handed them over to the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Rites took care of their clothes, handed over their Chinese etiquette, and covered food and lodging.
Then they were brought here in a daze, and they looked at the food on the table, and their saliva was about to flow.
They have never seen so much food in their lives, nor have they seen such a flowery city, let alone such exquisite clothing.
......
After eating for a while, Mei Xianying whispered to Gao Yang Yajun at this time:
"Your Majesty, it's time for the envoys of various countries to come out and congratulate!"
Gao Yang Yajun bowed his head.
"Hmmm! Good! ”
Mei Xianying got Gao Yang Yajun's consent, she stood up and read:
"Please come and meet Your Majesty!!"
After Mei Xianying finished reading, the envoys of various countries got the prompt of the translator behind them, nodded, and began to prepare.
The envoy met Gao Yang Yajun from low to high, and the first to come out were the chiefs who were "invited" back by the army.
The chiefs had been teaching them for about a month, so they knew how to do it.
They stood up and knelt down and said in a strange Chinese language:
"Chieftain of the lowly Chieftain, meet the Emperor of the Celestial Empire! Long live the Emperor, long live, long live! ”
Actually, the Ministry of Rites did not let them kneel on the ground, the Ministry of Rites just taught them to bow 90 degrees and bow their hands.
But these chiefs were too nervous, so they knelt down as soon as they were nervous, and they lowered their heads, not even daring to look at Gao Yang Yajun, who was sitting on the throne.
"Chiefs, please get up, don't make this big salute!" Gao Yang Yajun couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth when she saw these chiefs kneeling, and she stretched out her hand to support her.
"Bang Bang Bang"
The chiefs quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times, then stood up and thanked him:
"Foreign ministers, foreign ministers, thank the Great Emperor of the Heavenly Dynasty, Longen!"
Gao Yang Yajun raised her eyebrows and looked at these chiefs, she didn't expect these people to climb up the pole! Why are these chiefs foreign ministers? However, Gao Yang Yajun didn't ask, Gao Yang Yajun just nodded.
These chiefs saw that Gao Yang Yajun did not object, and they were secretly happy in their hearts. They stood up and bowed ninety degrees, saying:
"Tell the Emperor of the Celestial Empire that the foreign ministers have brought some small gifts from the chiefdom to His Majesty the Great Emperor!"
"Oh, bring it and have a look!" Gao Yang Yajun pretended to be curious and said, in fact, Gao Yang Yajun already knew what those things were, after all, those things were forcibly "taken" back by the Huaxia army from their chiefdom, and this brocade guard had already been reported to Gao Yang Yajun in advance.
The guards brought the things up, and then presented the list to Mei Xianying, who took the list and read:
"The chieftains of the chiefdoms offer your majesty thirty bearskins, fifty sheepskins, five oxen, and ten sheep!"
"Good, good, good, the chiefs have a heart, I am very satisfied!"
Gao Yang Yajun said hypocritically, and didn't want to think about how she might be satisfied.
"Okay, chiefs, I will give you five large clay pots and five copies of the Basic Course of Huaxia Pinyin."
Gao Yang Yajun's small hand gave these chiefs some precious gifts after a while.
Don't think that five big clay pots and five "Huaxia Pinyin Basic Tutorials" This is Gaoyang Yajun's door, this is already a great gift, because the chiefdoms of these five chiefs have no technology to make pottery at all, so the big clay pots are already very good for these chiefs.
What's more, Gao Yang Yajun also gave them five copies of the "Basic Course of Huaxia Pinyin", which is a very good gift, you must know that these five "Basic Course of Huaxia Pinyin" can allow the chiefdoms of these chiefs to learn the Chinese language, so that they can trade with the Huaxia Empire more fairly in the future, and the Huaxia Empire can also invade these chiefdoms with culture and slowly turn them into Chinese.
The chiefs happily knelt on the ground again and said:
"Foreign minister, thank you for the gift of the Emperor of the Heavenly Kingdom!!"
"I'm not polite, but I want to ask you, why are you my foreign ministers? I don't even know? Gao Yang Yajun squinted his eyes and asked slowly, and in an instant, a kind of domineering aura poured out of Gao Yang Yajun's body, and these chiefs were trembling with fright.
They were so frightened that they knelt down again, and they bowed their heads and said intermittently:
"I, we, we admire the culture of the Chinese Empire very much, I, we want to become a vassal state of the Chinese Empire!"
"Oh? Is it? ”
"Bang Bang Bang"
"Bang Bang Bang"
When these chiefs heard Gao Yang Yajun's voice, they hurriedly kowtowed and said:
"Yes, yes, we really want to become a vassal state of the Huaxia Empire!"
Gao Yang Yajun saw these chiefs kowtow again, and the blood came out. Gao Yang Yajun said: "Okay, I see that you are so pious, so I will explain your request in the face of difficulty." From now on, you will be a vassal state of the Huaxia Empire. ”
They said happily:
"The foreign minister has thanked His Majesty the Emperor of the Heavenly Empire!"
"Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, after you retire from the dynasty, take a few chiefs to make a set of official uniforms of the Chinese Empire. Just do it according to the system of the Qipin County Order! ”
Li Xueru stood up and said:
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After Gao Yang Yajun finished explaining, the envoys of the three countries allied with the Chinese Empire stood up in turn to congratulate Gao Yang Yajun.
After the envoys of Pomerania and Great Moravia congratulated him, Yin Lankang, the capital of the Polish state, stood up and congratulated:
"Yin Lankang of the Polish State Jingzhao Mansion visited the Emperor of China!! Lan Kang congratulates Emperor Huaxia! ”
Gaoyang Yajun Xufu Lankang:
"Master Lan, excuse me, flat body!"
Lan Kang said elegantly:
"Thank you, His Majesty the Emperor of China!"
Lan Kangjin gave Gao Yang Yajun some books, which were books written according to his own understanding after reading Confucianism.
These books are also the books taught by Lan Kang in Poland, Lan Kang advocates the use of etiquette and music to educate the people, people-oriented, he believes that the people should live and work in peace and contentment, Lan Kang advocates that the people are noble, and the monarch is second.
Gao Yang Yajun nodded and accepted the gift, and then Gao Yang Yajun returned the gift to Lankang Huaxia's specialty brocade cloth.
Then, the Bulgarian princess came out to congratulate Gao Yang Yajun. The Bulgarian princess did not want other gifts in return, she wanted to get the friendship of the Chinese Empire and several sets of Chinese Imperial costumes.
"Okay, Bulgarian princess, the friendship between the Chinese Empire and you will last forever!"
Gao Yang Yajun agreed, but it is not known whether the friendship between the Chinese Empire and the Bulgarian princess will last forever.
Then Gao Yang Yajun also promised to give the Bulgarian princess Huaxia clothes, Gao Yang Yajun was very angry and directly gave the Bulgarian princess ten sets of Chinese clothes.
Ten pieces of Chinese neon clothes, Gao Yang Yajun ordered Li Xueru's etiquette department to make them according to the princess costumes in Chinese culture.
"Thank you, Emperor Huaxia!"
The Bulgarian princess returned to her position very satisfied, she not only planned to get the friendship of the Chinese Empire, she also wanted to get the friendship of the princess of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire, and she had privately asked the Byzantine princess to meet in the evening.
It can be seen that this princess of Bulgaria should be a person with ideas.
