Chapter 298: Borrowing from the Island Country's Small Movie
As it is close to the end of the year, there are many official duties that need to be summarized, and Ye Yu, as the secretary of the ministry, is naturally even more onerous. Ye Yu has stayed in the study of the mansion for half a day and has not gone out, and has been dealing with the mountains of spy texts!
Outside the house is Ruixue scattered quite poetic, if it was him back then, he might have nothing to do to enjoy the snow and drink, but now this comfortable time is no more!
Closing the account book with a snap, Ye Yu breathed a long sigh of relief: "This is really not a good errand to be an official!" β
Suddenly, Beitangmo's voice came from outside the door: "Childe, someone posted a visit." β
Ye Yu rubbed his swollen temples, and his tone was a little displeased: "If it is an official, just say that I am too busy with official business to see him, and ask him to bear with me; If a literati comes to appreciate poetry and ask for advice, he will say that I am not feeling well and occasionally feel cold, please forgive me......"
Beitangmo paused for a while, and said with some hesitation: "But Childe, this post is written in Chinese as 'East China Sea Japan, Waiping Qingsheng, Worship Officials, Shangshu Zun Yu Qinqi'...... It seems to be a greeting from a Japanese envoy......"
"Taira Kiyomori?" Ye Yu raised his head slightly, his expression changed slightly, and then he pondered for a moment before saying, "Please wait in their living room, I will arrive later!" β
Everyone Ye Yu can not see, but this Japanese envoy took the initiative to come to the door, so he had to meet him!
As far as the rules are concerned, he is just a minister, and there is no reason for an envoy of a country to take the initiative to visit him;
Personally, he really wanted to meet this Japanese envoy. This is because Japan is a very good base for business development when it comes to maritime trade.
Lu Qing's sea caravan is already in preparation, and in this process, the springboard for maritime trade can be set in Japan!
During the trade between the two countries, the Song Kingdom exported local specialties to Japan, and the goods exported by Japan also included minerals such as copper and sulfur, as well as handicrafts such as timber and Japanese swords produced in the west.
Around the time of the Heiji War, the Taira clan leader Taira Kiyomori built the first artificial port in Hakata, vigorously developed trade, and expelled temples and shrines, thus mastering the shipping routes of the Seto Inland Sea.
The route for the Heike family and the imperial family to visit Itsukushima Shrine became a route for trade between the Song and the Japanese.
So he must see this Ping Qingsheng, although Ye Yu knows the purpose of Ping Qingsheng's trip, what he values is not who the Great Song will help in the end, but how to introduce Japanese resources into Middle-earth.
When Ye Yu came to the living room, he happened to see Ping Qingsheng waiting at the banquet at a glance.
Because Ping Qingsheng is a China expert, Ye Yu saw it personally at the banquet that day.
So Ping Qingsheng didn't look for anyone to translate, and when he saw Ye Yu walking in, he stood up very enthusiastically and made a bowing etiquette: "Lord Ye, I have admired the name for a long time, and I hope you will forgive me for visiting me rashly today!" β
"Hehe, Taizheng-sama is polite!" Ye Yu smiled heartily, and his attitude of being easy and respectful made Ping Qingsheng very moved.
Before he became a monk, he was Japan's Imperial Minister, the highest official position under Japan's Ritsuryo system. Although he later became a monk due to illness, Emperor Takakura kept this position to him.
Therefore, this kind of status should be said to be very noble, but after coming to the Song Dynasty, it seems that it is not treated well by the officials of the Song Dynasty.
Maybe this is the posture of the Heavenly Empire, but today he was surprised in front of Ye Yu, he didn't expect this hot Lord Ye to be so approachable.
After the two exchanged pleasantries, Ye Yu noticed a man and a woman behind Ping Qingsheng.
"These two are ......"
"Miko Akinomiya, I've seen Lord Ye!"
"Fujiwara Chengfan, I've seen Lord Ye!"
The tone of the two speaks in a very stiff tone, and it is obvious that these words have been practiced for a long time.
Taira Kiyomori immediately used fluent Chinese to introduce Miko Akimiya solemnly: "This is my Japanese prince, I am not familiar with Chinese, I hope Lord Ye will not blame!" β
After listening to Taira Kiyomori's explanation, I understood why Taira Kiyomori was the special envoy of the mission, and it turned out that he was the only one who was fluent in Chinese in the Japanese Diet.
As for the three words Prince Nei, Ye Yu has heard of it, the daughter or sister or sister of the Emperor of the Central Plains is called a princess, and the Japanese title is Prince Nei.
Ye Yu looked the young Autumn Palace Miko up and down, and saw that although the other party was petite, she was as beautiful as a cherry blossom, especially this Han court attire, which was no different from the women in the Central Plains.
When Ye Yu was carefully taking a large number of Akinomiya Miko, Akimiya Miko was also secretly peeking at Ye Yu's appearance, because she was just looking at the banquet from afar that day, and she didn't take a closer look at this Lord Ye.
Seeing that this legendary man of the Great Song Dynasty was born so handsomely, and then thinking back to those short and frustrated men in his own country, the difference between high and low was immediately clear for a while.
Fujiwara Chengfan is a rare beautiful man in Japan, but he is also a lot of disgrace in front of Ye Yu at the moment.
Miko Akinomiya shook the brocade shawl on her shoulders intentionally or unintentionally, and slightly brushed the collar horns on it with her hand. And at Ye Yu's angle, you can just see the thin shirt under the coat, and a pair of proud breasts are trembling and jade.
To Ye Yu's surprise and strangeness, the little red on the top of this pair of tender jade was covered by the green silk silk that was as narrow as peanut grains, and in his eyes, there seemed to be two faintly visible bumps, which seemed to be a flower in front of people's eyes.
Although Jiangnan is not too cold this winter, Miko Akimiya is dressed like this, which is really a bit seductive!
In fact, compared with the height of the Song Dynasty, the Japanese are indeed not tall, and they can even be called short!
In history, Japan is often called the Japanese Kou, which means short. Perhaps Xu Fu himself was a short man, who was ordered by Qin Shi Huang to go to the East China Sea in Penglai to find the elixir of life, but he never returned and settled on the island country of Japan.
And Xu Fu has become the originator of Japan, so this kind of low gene has been passed down to many generations, and it is maintained at a height of more than one meter and four, which is indeed short for the average height of the Central Plains people.
Ping Qingsheng can only reach his shoulders when he stands in front of Ye Yu, Fujiwara Chengfan, who is known as a handsome Japanese man, is also half a head behind Ye Yu when it comes to height!
However, what surprised Ye Yu was that although Japanese men are not tall at the moment, women are relatively not short, and in terms of women's standard height, Miko Akinomiya is reasonable.
Qiumiya Miko learned the etiquette of the Han people and saluted Ye Yu, Ye Yu stepped forward cordially and helped Prince Qiumiya Mikonai, who was bending down and bowing.
Prince Miko's hand was very slender, and through the slightly thin clothes, Ye Yu could even feel how cold and jade the arm inside was.
Miko Akinomiya trembled slightly at the moment when her jade arm was held by Ye Yu, she didn't expect Ye Yu to have direct physical contact with her like this, and couldn't help but look up at Ye Yu.
Ye Yu's move was completely out of courtesy, a prince in the hall, equivalent to the county lord of the Great Song Dynasty, saluted him as a courtier of the Great Song Dynasty, if he accepted it calmly without knowing the proportion, it would seem that there was no one in his eyes.
Treating the enemy, Ye Yu did it differently from others. He will not make a fuss about etiquette and attitude, if you want to make the enemy submit to your feet, then you need to conquer it with practical actions!
Thousands of times of disdain and disdain, it is not as good as a complete ruin of miè!
Ye Yu has always had a friendly attitude towards the Japanese envoys, which is at least a kind of cultivation and demeanor. As for what non-human actions will be taken in the future, that is a different attitude.
After a few people sat down, Miko Akinomiya sat curiously and stared at Ye Yu, which made Ye Yu and Taira Kiyomori feel very embarrassed when they talked.
Who is it, being stared at intently by a woman, I'm afraid I can't stand it!
Finally, Ye Yu didn't hold back, so he asked, "Why does His Royal Highness Meizi keep staring at Ye, could it be that there are any stains on Ye's face?" β
The Japanese imperial family claims to be the descendants of the gods, and they have no surname at all, so the emperors and royal women of the past dynasties have no surnames, which Ye Yu has heard.
But Ye Yu also knew that the word Autumn Palace of Miko Akinomiya was not a surname, but just a palace name! Since ancient times, palaces have been used instead of titles, in fact, they have existed in ancient China.
Therefore, in order to shorten the distance, Ye Yu directly omitted the name of this palace and directly called His Royal Highness Meizi.
Although Miko Akinomiya is not proficient in Chinese and stumbles when she speaks, she can still understand it. Just as some students in later generations cannot speak English well, whether they are doing English test questions or listening to others speak English, they can understand the meaning of the truth.
"γγͺγγ―ηΎγγ" Miko Akinomiya couldn't help but say a Japanese response.
But afterwards, she felt that Ye Yu might not understand, and she couldn't say it herself, so she motioned to Ping Qingsheng to translate.
But just when Ping Qingsheng was about to translate this sentence, Ye Yu had already opened his mouth: "Good-looking, this word should describe a woman, such as Your Highness's appearance." Can't it be used on Ye's body, it's not suitable......"
Ye Yu's response surprised Ping Qingmori and Miko Akimiya, they didn't expect that Ye Yu in front of them could actually speak some Japanese.
Miko Akinomiya didn't expect Ye Yu to praise herself in turn, so she lowered her head a little shyly.
But Ye Yu didn't think so, although he didn't know much Japanese, he could understand the meaning of "because you are good-looking".
Back then, he watched a small movie in the island country, and in order to feel the unique atmosphere of the language, it can be said that he studied hard and practiced for many days and nights. I can't say that I understand Japanese, but I can still understand basic conversations.
However, he majored in English, but he never passed TongguΓ², and even when he graduated, he only scored 60 points. Sometimes Ye Yu thinks back to those unbearable things, and thinks about the country's English education, should he learn from the dynamic method of the island country's picture?
(Sansheng is born today, hey, what I am most afraid of when I grow up is to celebrate my birthday, because once it means that I am one year older, and the years are not forgiving, and now I can still call myself in my early twenties, and in another six or seven years, I will be in my early thirties...... οΌ
