Chapter 456: Finale
"I would like to invite the ambassador of the Four Seas to toast His Majesty!" Chen Da, the head of the guard, sang loudly.
Fang Guoying, Shen Wang, Shen Mao, and Ma Sanbao stepped forward with their wine glasses and said in a loud voice: "The ambassador of the North (East, South, West) Sea Jingluo toasts His Majesty!" With that, they all fell to their knees.
Hao Ren asked everyone to be exempt from courtesy and to praise everyone one by one.
Fang Guozhen and Fang Guoying brothers went to the Americas for the second time, and after four years of sea drift, they finally arrived in the Americas. Fang Guozhen had died of illness due to overwork, and Fang Guoying took over Fang Guozhen's position and was responsible for running Beihai.
Fang Guoying was appointed ambassador for the North Sea Economic Strategy, managing maritime trade and coastal areas north of the Goryeo Peninsula and all the way to the Arctic Ocean.
Shen Wang and Shen Mao are veteran sailing masters, one went to the East and the other went to the South Sea, and now they are all marquises.
Ma Sanbao was only in his early twenties, and Hao Ren was forced by his prestige and the status of a righteous son, who followed Shen Mao to the South Seas many times and had a lot of sailing experience, so Hao Ren appointed him as the ambassador of Western economic strategy.
After the ambassador of the Four Seas Economic Strategy, there were seven cabinets, thirty-two meritorious heroes, thirty-six state taishou, Xuanfu envoys, etc., who toasted Hao Ren in turn, and then Zhenla, Ceylon and other subject countries toasted in turn.
In the middle of the banquet, the town guards sang the national anthem of the Great Song Dynasty "Song of the Rising Sun" in unison, the sound was spectacular, and the entire Great Song Dynasty Palace was intoxicated in this cheerful and peaceful atmosphere.
There was a gong sounding on the ground, and the door shouted loudly: "The prince is driving!" The whole palace immediately fell silent. The civil and military officials were divided into two shifts and stood solemnly.
Everyone knows that the prince Lusheng's army went to Andong Prefecture to conquer the Goryeo general Li Chenggui who surrendered and rebelled, but he never thought that the prince had returned in less than half a year after sending troops.
In order to catch up with this year's big court, the crown prince Lusheng was dusty all the way, and when he walked up to the palace, he threw a bloody human head on the ground, and held a talisman in both hands to Hao Ren and asked: "Erchen relied on the power of his father to sweep away the traitors in Goryeo, and he has taken the head of the traitor, and he specially paid the order to his father!" ”
The prince's move is very obvious, he took out the head of a traitor at the court meeting, knocked on the mountain and shook the tiger, those pacification, the border court and the vassal kingdom all trembled, which one would dare to harbor a rebellion?
"The prince is really a civil and military all-rounder, the year before last he organized the compilation of the "Great Song Encyclopedia", and now with only 8,000 soldiers and horses, he has pacified the traitors of Goryeo for me, and the state has such a prince, which really makes me happy! How did the prince feel when he returned from his expedition today? Hao Ren was pleased.
"Returning to my father's words, cutting off the head of the rebel is really a happy and comforting event!" Prince Lusheng said respectfully.
"But you have a few years, and you can't personally lead the army into battle!" Hao Ren said.
"It is within the scope of the sons and daughters to share the worries of their father, and now that the child has grown up, how can he let his father go on an expedition in person!" Lu Sheng Road.
"Because I am going to go out for a walk to see if the people under my rule are as rich as the people of Jiankang, you, as an adult prince, want to supervise the country for me, and the war can only be led by other meritorious generals!" Hao Ren said.
"The sons will definitely live up to Your Majesty's mission! Your Majesty, please take back the talisman! The prince held the talisman in his hand.
Hao Ren did not take back the talisman that can dispatch the world's soldiers and horses, for Hao Ren, he can mobilize the world's soldiers and horses by brushing his face, and his own world, sooner or later, is the mature prince's, simply decentralize the power, let the prince adapt earlier, and he can get rid of his body, concentrate on governing the people under his rule, and contribute his modest strength to the eternal stability of the Great Song Dynasty.
……
Zhang Poyu, Deng Yu, and Chen Da hugged the car of the Great Song Emperor, and traveled north, with Liu Bowen and Robben two civilian officials on horseback guarding the left and right.
Liu Bowen shook the feather fan and asked with a smile: "Your Majesty, we are going all the way to the north, where to stop?" ”
"This year, I will go to the camp of the Mobei County Prince, drink the mare's milk wine of Mr. Yu Yanyu's house, and if it goes well, I will go all the way west to see the soldiers who are on the border of the Great Song Dynasty in Worosi." Hao Ren's voice came from inside the car.
Jun came from the south, naturally like Qianlong's six visits to the south of the Yangtze River, Hao Ren could only go north to recover the hearts of the people in the north.
