"We're about to enter Nanjing City, should we let the army stop and rest for a while, and wait for the people to go to the city to pay homage before entering the city?" Monka, who was still sitting by the window, turned to ask the kings in the carriage. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

According to the practice of these kings to envoy foreign countries in the past, every time before entering the royal capital, the mission would take a short rest, and at the same time arrange for someone to go to the royal capital to report the news, regardless of whether it was out of politeness or in order to prepare a grand welcome feast for the other party, this is necessary, otherwise it will not be misunderstood.

Of course, the kings of these countries will only do this when they are facing a country that is stronger than them, and if it is a country worse than their country, it is strange that these guys do not directly enter the city arrogantly.

"Naturally, you need to stop and trim!" Staines's voice rang out, "We still have to send people to enter the city with our respective national documents, and we can only enter the city after His Majesty the Ming Emperor has passed on the will." ”

As the only one of these twenty kings who had ever come to Nanjing City, Stans still felt an inexplicable sense of superiority: "Moreover, these guards of ours can only bring in twenty or thirty people at most. ”

"What about the security issues I'm waiting for?" A middle-aged humane who looks a little thin and also a little short.

"King Ampache, your worries are completely useless." Staines smiled at the short and thin middle-aged man, "When we arrive in the imperial city of Daming, if something happens to us, I'm afraid there will be no safe place in this world." ”

It seems that this Stans knows Da Ming very well, at least he knows that they will be safe after entering the city.

Boom Boom Boom ......

Just as the kings in the carriage were about to say something, with a deafening sound, all the envoys of Fanbang trembled with shock, and then the envoys panicked.

All of a sudden, all the horses of the envoys of the various states began to be restless, their hooves shook the ground, they kept snorting, and they began to roar wildly, if it were not for the fact that the people of the various states were all excellent in equestrianism, and had a good way of riding horses, I am afraid that these restless horses would have begun to scatter and flee in all directions.

Of course, the most unfortunate thing was of course the oversized carriage drawn by the twelve horses, which was drawn by twelve horses, and there were only two horsemen on the wheel, one on the left and one on the right, driving the carriage, and in the twenty earth-shaking noises, the twelve horses each chose a direction to run in a rage.

The two horsemen sitting on the wheel, if they only control three or five horses, it is fine, but the twelve horses, they are all carefully selected from hundreds of thousands of horses, not only handsome in appearance, but also endurance and strength are first-class.

"What's going on, what's going on out there?"

"God, it can't be the Heavenly General Divine Thunder, right?"

The envoys of the various states were mad, and the accompanying guards and coachmen desperately pulled the horses they sat down, trying their best to calm them down, hoping that the horses would be quiet as soon as possible.

Some people who are not skilled in equestrianism are still sadly thrown off by the horses they sit on.

Everywhere was the smoke and dust stirred up by the beating of horses, and the entire official road was soon filled with smoke and dust, and from a distance, on this official road, a brigade of five or six thousand people loomed, strangely carrying a bit of dust.

The people who killed this group of unlucky envoys of various states could not have imagined that they had been down-to-earth along the way, and they could even be said to have come with leisure and leisure, and when they arrived at the imperial capital of the Ming Dynasty, the first to greet them was not people or things, but a series of thunderous roars like the thunder god was angry, and they were all stunned!

……

Nanjing City, at the city gate, Zhu Song had an incomparably joyful smile on his face, and a pair of big hands were in the distance A mile away, the army looming between the smoke and dust kept pointing, Zhu Qilin and Zhu Qiyue, the two little girls had been sent back to the Han Wangfu, leaving only Zhu Xuankun and Zhu Zhanji who had just arrived by his side.

"Hahaha, this king is still thoughtful! People finally come to our Daming for a trip, and they always have to be impressed, right? Zhu Song reached out and touched his son's head, and the expression on his face was extremely proud.

"Uncle Song, is it really okay for us to do this?" Zhu Xuankun looked at his right side with some concern.

On the right side of Zhu Xuankun, that is, on the left side of the city gate, six cannons were neatly placed.

These cannons are different from ordinary guns, they look relatively small, the barrel is only the thickness of an adult's fist, the whole cannon body is a golden color, next to these guns, there is also a small box, in the small box is placed the same golden shells, these shells are not very large.

That's right, these cannons were specially made by Zhu Song at the request of the firearms battalion, and the name is Salute, but compared to the streamers sprayed by the air cannons in his previous life, the shells of these six salutes are airburst shells, like fireworks, and they exploded into the sky with a bang, and a magnificent pattern appeared in the sky.

Of course, it was noon, when the sun was in full bloom, and the sky was so white that even if the cannonballs hit the sky, there was no magnificent pattern, only circles of white smoke and the heavy smell of gunpowder.

"What's so bad?" Zhu Song glanced at Zhu Zhanji, hey, the little guy was wearing a county king's uniform, but it was quite formal, "You have to look at it, uncle, I used a salute, not a mortar, if it was a mortar, twenty shells would have been reimbursed for the most conspicuous carriage." ”

When he said this, Zhu Song suddenly laughed and said, "Zhan Ji, guess which of the twenty envoys of the Fanbang Kingdom belonged to that carriage?" Haha, if the carriage is only worthy of two horses, eighty percent is fine, and the current tearing of twelve horses is afraid that the carriage will be torn apart, right? ”

"Uncle, they can't have an accident!" Zhu Zhanji was a little anxious, "If there is any loss in these Fanbang envoys, the imperial grandfather will not blame you at that time, but the grandson is the top tank!" ”

Nonsense, in terms of the current relationship between Zhu Song and Zhu Di, if something really happens, he will not have any substantive punishment for Zhu Song, and he will be scolded for two sentences and punished him for being grounded for a month.

On the contrary, Zhu Zhanji, a little guy, will definitely be caught by Zhu Di and grounded for three or four months.

Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Song are different, Zhu Song is an adult after all, and it is no problem for him to stay in the house for a year, but when the time comes, find a reason and slip away directly; What about Zhu Zhanji? A child's temperament, living in his own mansion for a few months, it is more uncomfortable than killing him and making him uncomfortable, it is better to beat him!

"You were dragged by your father to carry the black cauldron!" At this time, Zhu Xuankun, who was still licking the sugar gourd in his hand, came to a divine mending knife, "Father said, you have to carry all the black pots today, who called you small!" ”

"Huh?" Zhu Zhanji was stunned, his mouth was wide open, and his jaw was about to dislocate.

After a long time, a depressed look appeared on Zhu Zhanji's little face, and he said resignedly: "Forget it, things have happened anyway, even if it is not easy to explain, someone has to come out and take responsibility, hey!" ”

The little guy had a loveless face, he knew that this Uncle Song would dig a pit if he had something to do, and he would have jumped into this pit by himself, remembering that when his imperial grandfather asked him to receive the envoys of various states with Zhu Song, he always felt that this pit seemed to have been dug!

This is really a pit grandson!

"Stinky boy, don't worry!" Seeing Zhu Zhanji's sullen look, he said, "What do you think these envoys from various states are here for?" They are just here to express their sincerity in surrendering to our Daming, as my Zhu clan royal family, and the eldest son and grandson of the four emperor brothers, even if you destroy these guys, what can you do! ”

"But, but ......" Zhu Zhanji didn't know this truth, but the impact of this matter was not very good!

"Where's that much?" Zhu Song stretched out his left hand and patted the little guy's shoulder, pointed to the entire team that was exposed when the smoke and dust calmed down, and said, "Look at the things these guys are pulling, the carriage by carriage, and those tightly wrapped women, aren't these here to give me Daming?" ”

Seeing the thoughtful expression on Zhu Zhanji's face, Zhu Song continued: "Also, you know that just the envoys of these twenty small countries have been playing in our Ming Dynasty for nearly a month during this time, and since this time, it has always been the envoys of each undertaking to take money from the treasury for them to spend!" ”

When he said this, Zhu Song touched his chin and said: "According to my uncle, the envoys of these various states, where are they here to express their sincerity and participate in the feast of a hundred countries, they are clearly here to enjoy." Let them taste a little bitter now, but also to knock and knock them, don't take yourself too seriously. ”

When Zhu Di was just appointed as the Minister of Reception of Fanbang, Zhu Song was quite resistant, but after reading the information collected by Dongchang and Jinyiwei, Zhu Song gritted his teeth and took the position.

It's not to take into account Zhu Di's face, or to expect the envoys of various states to send gold and silver treasures, what Zhu Song wants is deterrence, or to make these states afraid of Daming, it is best to be afraid of Daming for a lifetime, a few lifetimes!

Because, according to the information summarized by Dongchang and Jinyiwei, these twenty kings of Fanbang have not stopped since they entered the territory of the Ming Dynasty. bribes, or seduces women and antiques. Confused...... In short, there are not many good birds.

Hearing Zhu Song's words, whether it was Zhu Xuankun, Zhu Zhanji, or Han Qingshan and others on the side, they all began to think silently, the expenses of more than 5,000 people, even if they didn't count the things they bought, how much would it cost to spend just the daily rations and accommodation?

Besides, you can't let these guys all eat wowotou and dried radish, right? In addition to those guards and servants, the rest of the gang are all kings and royal families of various small countries around the Ming Dynasty, let them eat chaff vegetables, isn't this a joke?

In this way, these guys spent nearly a month, to say the least, two or three hundred thousand taels of silver.

Grass, two or three hundred thousand taels of silver, how many people of the Ming Dynasty have to be fed!

"Well, are you still worried about anything now?" A faint smile appeared on Zhu Song's face, "This time, this king is under the banner of welcoming them, after all, these salutes are not dangerous, are they?" ”

"What Uncle Song (Wang Ye) said is extremely true!" This time, everyone can see that King Han is planning to get all the gold and silver that Daming spent on these Fanbang envoys back from these guys!

As the saying goes, the wool comes out of the sheep!

……

The army of envoys from various countries, which was a little chaotic in the distance, finally stopped after a long period of commotion.

It's just that the guards of these envoys have all changed, and almost all of them have become little natives.

But the guys in the carriage, except for the big carriage in the middle, everyone is fine, and even the carriage just shook a few times, the super luxury carriage in the middle has fallen apart, and only four of the twelve horses pulling the carriage are left, and they are all tired and choking with their tongues and heads!

And what about the kings in the carriage? They all sat on the ground, looking confused. Forced, two faces confused. Force...... At this moment, where do they still have the extravagant and majestic appearance they had before, not to mention the gray face, some kings even fell to the ground with the crown on their heads.

"Who, who can tell Lone, what the hell is going on?" The Western King Stans, who was dressed in ashes, with a crooked crown on his head, and even a snack on his forehead, wore an angry look on his face.

The King of Ceylon, Monka, also had a bad look on his face: "Guards, guards, what's going on?" ”

"Damn, what's going on?"

"What kind of fame is this Ming doing?"

In fact, not only Stans and Monka, but also the kings of the other eighteen states sitting on the ground at this moment are all going crazy, they have never encountered such a thing after so many years of being a royal family, a prince and a king, so they are furious and want to find out what is going on first.

"Your Royal Highness, are you alright?"

"Hurry up, help His Royal Highness the King up?"

"These Mingren are crazy, aren't they? Why do you do this? ”

The ultra-luxurious carriage was torn apart by the horses, and the guards and attendants around finally reflected it, and one by one they hurriedly ran over, carefully supporting their respective kings.
